(rooster crows) (lion roars) – Welcome to to Good Mythical More we’re gonna try some pain patches, – But first we’re going to do a new selfie face. This is going to be a especially interesting – Oh yeah! – Because Mike is here. – What’s it called? – This is called accidentally called your teacher “Mom”. – I’ve done that. – Everybody’s done that, right? – [VOICE] Got it. – I had to get a little bit more embarrassed. Mom. I mean teacher, I mean, friends. – I’ve definitely done that. – Oh, they, you know what it makes you the teacher’s pet forever. All the kids make fun of you, but the teacher’s like, Oh, he called me mom one day. I’m going to give him an A. I called them all Mom. – What if you call your mom teacher? I guess that doesn’t matter, no one cares. – Less effective. I think. – Yeah. – No one cares. Yeah. – All right. – Have you dabbled in the hot and cold patches? – I have not, but I think I’m of the age. – The funny thing is, I’m the one with back problems but lately you’ve been, there’s been some complaints about backs and knees and stuff. – Neck. Yeah I’ve got a shoulder thing. – You’ve got a neck thing. – I got a first rib thing. – We’re gonna fix you up right now. – And then I’ve got my lower back is kind of – Oh, we’re gonna fix every bit of you up. – Mike, where are you hurting? – Well I got rid of my body so I’m fine. (laughter) – Yeah man, the future’s so bright.

I mean, it’s for everybody, but adults don’t feel bad about calling your mom teacher or your teacher mom, or coloring a book. Get all that at Mythical.com. Okay. – All right. This, I’ve got an IcyHot here. I’ll put this on my lower back. So this one’s got lidocaine in it. What is that? – That’s a local analgesic. That’s a pain blocker. Though, what’s neat about IcyHot is it’s going to combine that analgesic effect with this cooling effect that comes from menthol. Menthol does its thing by blocking calcium current. That is a thing to move a calcium atoms through a medium. And that in people is how we get a sense of temperature, is a calcium current. So when you block it you get a sensation of cooling. And then if you combine that with some of the facts that actively produce localized heat with exothermic chemical reaction, then you get the simultaneous sensations of cooling and warmth. – Hence IcyHot. – boom. – Golly. Do you remember when, I never did it, but – Mine’s in place. – There was a locker room prank where you would take IcyHot, and you would take somebody’s deodorant, and you would put IcyHot at the top of their deodorant. – No, I didn’t really go in locker rooms. I was more of a scorekeeper kind of a dude. – We were running a road race once, Jenny and I, and she went by one of the aid stations and got a handful of IcyHot thinking it was like sunscreen or something and rubbed it all over her naked face. – Oh my gosh! Her face? – It was bad. Yeah, she was like rubbing it all over her cheeks, and then it kicked in, while she was running a 10 mile race. – Did she keep going? – She did, yeah, she finished that race. – Here’s a BENGAY. I’m going to put this on our shoulder. – Now BENGAY, this is menthol. So 5% menthol. Menthol, it’s not lidocaine, it’s different. – Yeah, so that’s the cooling. Is that the – Calcium channel blockage through menthol. – So I mean, so, but how does it, I mean, the thing I don’t understand. So this menthol, isn’t it just basically sort of like, you know, deadening the nerves at the surface of the skin, isn’t it? Is it, or is it making it all the way into the muscle? – Well, the menthol really isn’t directly active on nerves or pain receptors. It it’s just going to create this intense cooling sensation, but that volume of sensation can become overwhelming to our nervous systems in a way that makes it hard for us to isolate the pain signal underneath. Right? So it’s like, you’re trying to drench your nerves with some sensation other than pain. Whereas lidocaine actually does penetrate in and inhibits the ability of pain signals to form at all. – So you’re basically distracting your body, or overwhelming your body. – I think that’s fair, yeah. – And then heat just is like genuinely therapeutic, helps us relax. – This is not that cooling, I gotta go in with another one. – You really need this heat. You need to do a heat therapy up on that. – I want to do a heat right here. – This one’s already going. – All right, give me that. – Do not adhere directly on the skin. Well what do you put it on? – Because it says not to, – Oh yeah. – It burns. – People have put this over, place on clothing. – Oh, put it on the outside of my shirt. – That’s no fun. – What is this? A pain relief? Salonpas – Right here? – Right in the middle. Ooh that’s warm. This is kind of if you have to be outside for an event in the winter, put these in your sock, like HotHands. – They’re great. They take chemicals that have pretty violent reactions with one another and they separate them in packaging, and then you’re supposed to usually twist, break, squeeze, or shake to basically overcome whatever packaging was used to separate these chemicals. Then when they get together they have an exothermic reaction that is pretty energetic, hence the put it on your clothes, not on your skin. – Well the interesting thing about Cura-Heat is it is air activated therapeutic heat packs. So just exposure to air, I don’t know how that works. Is what drives the reaction for this one? – Nope, I’m going to put this one down my pants, Biofreeze, cool the pain. I have, my hip flexor is the thing that’s hurting me the most right now. – What’d you do with Salonpas? – It’s like, if you try to knee somebody in the groin, you’re using your hip flexor. So I got to go down my pants, just get inside of, – I don’t know if that’s, let me see if it says that’s an option. – If you’d asked me all day for activities that engage the hip flexor, I would have never gotten to kneeing people in the groin. – Kneeing people in the groin, I mean also, just like anything that you would do like a hip thrust, – Does it feel good though? – With your hips, if you’re really using your, – It feels good down there? – If you’re setting your feet and then your thrusting your hips, or if you’re on your knees thrusting your hips. – I got a whole belt I gotta undo. I gotta undo my belt if I want to get down my pants. – Then your hip flexors. Ooh. Yeah, I got it. Are you wearing any underwear? I’m right on the hip flexor right there. – I don’t know why I’m doing this. – Oh yeah, that’s cold. I really like the hot one better than the cold. The hot one here is really what’s making me feel the best. – Don’t, don’t, don’t look. – Where’s the hip flexors? That’s not it. (laughing) – Is that it? It’s flexible. – If it changes size, it’s not a hip flexor. – Okay. And it’s going to be cold down there. I don’t want that. – I’ll tell you, this thing here, what’s this on my shoulder again? BENGAY it’s hot and cold, it’s both. I can’t tell the difference. I can’t decide what it is. This right here. It’s really hot. Have I used everything? Because – I don’t know how to feel right now. – I know I’m getting hot and cold sensations everywhere. – I didn’t get one of these – My lower back is cold. – This, Oh, this is a heat wrap that can go directly on the skin. I’m going to put this on the back of my neck. – Can I have one of these too? – Yeah, have it. – All right, so I’m going to put this on under the other hot thing, just on my neck. – I mean, it’s got some sticky. – Mike, when you have pain – Mhm – What is your go to thing? Are you an ibuprofen man? Are you an acetaminophen man? – Yeah. – I am a very occasional ibuprofen man. But I try to not use pain relievers for as long as I can possibly stand it. – Cause the pain makes you feel alive. – Well and, I mean – I actually I’m prone to migraines, and so if I take too much pain medicine too many days in a row, then you can get a rebound headache. And for me, that turns into a migraine and well not good. – A migraine will make you vomit. It’ll make you vomit, faint and forget your loved ones. – They’re bad. Yeah. They’re not fun. – Yeah. I mean, I’m a ibuprofen man. Cause I found that acetaminophen, it doesn’t seem to do anything for me, but as I’m sure you know more about it than my 16 year old son does, but my 16 year old son knows more than I do about it. He was like, dad, you don’t need to be taking ibuprofen every time you get like a headache or your back hurts. He was like, it’s not good to use it on a regular basis. So I didn’t ask any followup questions, but I’m not using it on a regular basis. – That is true. But the acetaminophen on a regular basis is worse. So if it’s the lesser of two evils, ibuprofen certainly is the lesser. – Tylenol is acetaminophen, right? – Mhm What about aspirin? Doesn’t that stop heart attacks? – Small amounts of aspirin have a therapeutic effect on blood platelet levels and the plaque formation, which by thinning the blood has an indirect impact on heart attack and risk for heart attack. – See. – How about that for us of fine print answer? (laughter) We should put that in small type and italics. – I feel I’m feeling kind of robotic right now. Like I feel like I’ve been, what’s the word when you’ve been amalgamated? – Yeah that. – Like when you’ve been edited, you’ve been given superhuman or robotic parts to your body, kind of like you, Mike. – Augmented? – Augmented. – Yeah. Amalgamated. – I feel augmented. Like my hip is cold, my neck is hot, my shoulders cold and hot, my lower back is cold. – It is. It’s wonderful. I got four or five, several, on my lower back. Cold and hot and just feels great as I’ve lost all ability to decipher what’s my back and what’s not my back. – All I need now is just an alien to probe me in like the anus. (laughter) Like I just feel like that’s what’s about to happen. – [Stevie] I don’t have an alien probe, but I was wondering if you wanted to show Mike our coloring book. I know you guys have already seen it and the Mythical Beasts have seen some previews, but I mean, – Where is it? Yeah. since we have the okay, one second. – Oh yeah. I didn’t know we had, you had a copy out here now. – [Stevie] Well, you you’ve seen it, but not Mike hasn’t. So one second. – So we’re waiting, waiting for the UFO to land. Mike, look at this coloring book. You get to see the back first. – Wow. – Look at that. It’s it’s the outside has color, but the inside is your problem. – Is it kind of like a melted wax effect there on the mythical? Yeah. Pretty cool, huh?. Pretty cool. If you want to give this to someone by Christmas, you got to order it by November – [Stevie] Eighth. – Eighth – You don’t want to show the good people any of the inside there? Look how intricate these things get. Look at that. – That was cool. – Yeah. We’re we’re we’re pretty proud of this. We’ve got lots of characters. – Look at the beard. – It’s me with a bee beard. – You can color every bee a different color if you’re nuts. – Cheese wheels. My hair goes up, my hair goes down. – [Stevie] Okay, okay, okay, okay. – Okay don’t give them too much! Don’t give them too much! Don’t give them too much! – Yeah, they’ll do screen caps and print it out and color it themselves. Don’t do that, we will find you. – Every one you get a free Thermacare. – Free Thermacare with the purchase of every Mythical Coloring Book. – Or a free Salanpas. – If you’re over the age of 98. – They need to work on their name. Salonpas? – Yeah it’s like a salon pause. – Salonpas. I can’t even say that. – It’s a little pause in your day. – Salonpas. – I’m actually starting to get uncomfortable in the back region now. – Yeah I can see that. – Yeah, my groin. Oh, you can see he’s getting uncomfortable? – No, I can see the aggregate effect of that many patches going past pleasant and into overwhelming. – Yeah, I’m having a lidocaine reaction. – Pleasure spiked with pain. – Yeah. – [Stevie] Did you say which one is the best one? – We don’t know which one is which anymore. – I’m telling you right now, I really like the hot one that I can put directly on your skin. – Just putting things on your clothes is for the birds. – Yeah, and I really, – And birds don’t even wear clothes. – And the one on my hip flexor, which one is that? – [Stevie] I think that’s the Salonpas, no? – Is that the Salonpas? – I think it’s Biofreze. – [Stevie] Oh, Biofreze. – I think I put the Biofreeze on, oh yep, it says it right there. I put the Biofreze down my pants, and that’s a good one. – Biofreze down your pants, that’s what we all learned today (laughter) – I highly recommend that. – [Link] Color your way through the world of Mythicality with the Mythical Coloring Book, available at Mythical.com.
