GMMore 2070: What Does This Etsy Store Sell?

Welcome to Good Mythical More. Can you tell what an Etsy shop sells, by being told what the Etsy shop is called? Probably. But can you tell that we’re going to donate $1,000, to the NAACP legal defense and educational fund, to aid in their mission to fight for racial justice. And you can join us in giving, at naacpldf.org Thank you for being your mythical best. Yeah. All right. Let’s hear an Etsy shop. “Biophilia Supply”. Biophilia Supply. I think they sell little taxidermized, little animals and stuff. ‘Cause it’s- Biological It’s biological. And you can feel it. That would probably come up zoo, Zoophilia. Love. They love bio. I think it’s, It’s just vials of bodily fluids. Hm. Rhett was close. They sell sustainable, cruelty-free, rare, unique and beautiful natural materials, like bird feathers, taxidermy beetles- Hm. and snake vertebrae And here is- Ooh. Look at that. A Jewel beetle, $18 and a set of 24 bigger parrot feathers for $82. You ever been to that- Bigger parrot feathers? I guess there are smaller parrot feathers. There’s a naked parrot? Maybe they shed. They wait until the parrot dies. Of natural causes, which takes a long time, as parrots live forever. Right, cruelty free. You ever been to that oddity shop in Pasadena- Yeah. Colorado, the Golden Beetle or the Golden Bug? Or what is it called? I don’t know. I know what you’re talking about, It’s in Old Town. I love that place, man. There’s a couple in Burbank, that I’ve been to, This one is better than this. Goldbug. The Goldbug. Huh? No, I haven’t been there. It’s got all kinds of weird stuff like this, and not just this. I don’t want to wear an iridescent insect. Let’s see another, or hear another. I don’t think you wear them. they’re on like a- Stand? cork situation. You eat ’em, they’re on a stick. Popsicle? Yeah. You eat them. AKNITomy. AKNITomy? Can you spell that? AKNITomy. Nope. They sell knit, Knitting equipment. Knitting, not knitting equipment, but knitted product, Knitted stuff, knitted things, like toilet paper roll covers, Toilet handle covers. Toilet seat covers. They sell PDFs of instructional knitting patterns, for recreating knitted animal dissections. Ooh, wow. I got to start a Etsy. I really got, oh my gosh. Knitted alien autopsy Hold on. and biological knitting patterns. I love this. I want this. Don’t let me forget this. I think you have to, I think you have to knit this. No I don’t. Well, let’s forget it. Why can’t you just buy? so they don’t actually sell the completed works? I want the person who has an Etsy account, who takes all the stuff from AKNITomy, and then makes it and sells it to me. Okay? Where’s that person? That alien autopsy is cool. It’s so cool, man. It’s so cool. A-knit-omy. Oh. ‘Cause like anatomy. Ah, isn’t that cute. Man. I should spend more time on Etsy. Do you remember, when we were paraded through the bio department at Campbell University, as grade schoolers, and then we were about to go into a room and they said, “All right, now, if you get queasy, you don’t have to go in this next room, because there’s a dissected cat.” And everybody kind of looked at everybody, and no one had the guts to say that they didn’t want to go in. I had a smile on my face. You had a I’m sure you did. I did not want to go in, but- I was like, this is the coolest field trip, ever. I’m making this about me. I looked around. No one else was saying they didn’t want to go in. So there I was, going in. I remember the smell of formaldehyde. And I remember seeing this, basically a stray cat that had died, I think. I don’t know how they do that. Well it, okay. So it was the professor’s pet that he didn’t like anymore. I don’t, well, I, I remember someone asked, and it was a stray cat. Sadly, it’s probably cats that make it to shelters, and are not adopted, or like, go into like, dissecting. For the good of science. This thing was splayed out before us. And it was, it scarred me. Scarred you, or scared you? I was so scarred. I was so scarred, man. I was scarred. You know, funny thing is, as much as I’m into that weird taboo stuff. That’s a very, it’s seared itself into my memory. I think about that building, and I immediately begin to smell. Yeah. The scent. It’s like having never smelled formaldehyde, to such a strong extent. Let’s hear another one. And let’s wipe that from our memories. Yeah, please. “Canceled Plans”. Canceled Plans. This is vacation itineraries, for vacations that never happened. That’s sad. You wanna buy that? When I was recently in Key West, we were talking to this guy, who was a little bit odd, it was an older guy, who was with two other older women. And you couldn’t really tell what the nature of the relationship was. I believe the nature of the relationship was, everybody gets a little. How much older? For the women than the man? No, they were all in their sixties? Okay. And we were talking to him, ’cause he was a regular visitor of Key West. And he said, “I have a spreadsheet of all the things that you can do. All the things that I want to do, in Key West.” And it’s a very detailed itinerary, down to half hours. Oh. That’s not the spirit of Key West. But then, as soon as we started talking to him, the first thing he said, he was like, “Well, you know, the third floor of so-and-so. If you go up there, after about midnight, everybody starts taking their clothes off. And if you’re not chicken, you’ll come.” I was like, “Whoa, where did this come from?” He went from, “I’ve got an itinerary”, to, “My itinerary is getting y’all naked.” That’s the kind of thing you run into. How was it? It was pretty awesome. Low light. But I’m so tall. Yeah. You know, that the lights from the top, hit me, and illuminate me in different ways, than other people. No I didn’t go. I didn’t go. I didn’t get naked. Anyway. That’s the kind of thing that they sell. If you’re not chicken, you’ll come. It’s just a print out of this guy’s Exel spreadsheet, from a vacation he did not go on. I agree. There’s a lot to unpack there. I feel like. You didn’t even ask any questions. Well when he said, “If you’re, if you’re not chicken, you’ll come.” Was he looking at Jessie or was he looking at you? Oh, he was looking at Jessie and her sister. Yeah. Yeah. That’s that makes a lot more sense. Yeah. Yeah. If you want to hear the rest of his trip, you can listen to that on Ear Biscuits Ear biscuits. Yeah. Oh, another promo. Black Friday is coming up.

Architectural plans. It’s a candle company. They sell clean burning, hand poured candles, with cute names. Like “It’s fine, I’m fine”, candle. And “Remember hugs?” I don’t see the connection with canceled plans. I think you cancel your plans to stay in, to smell your candle. Yeah. Okay. They missed an opportunity for candled. Like candled plans. Ooh. Still doesn’t make sense, but, but you did work candle in. You know, I don’t think, candles are bad for you, right? Didn’t they find recently that like, Candles are bad for you? Are they taking away candles now? No. If you burn a lot of candles, there’s stuff going into the air, that you’re breathing and shouldn’t be breathing. It makes sense. Particulates. Yeah. I mean, but it depends on the candle, but just an average candle, that you just get in the mall, woo, buddy. Probably bad news. Look into it, look it up. Look it up. Web MD. “Gourmet Felted”. Gourmet felted? Mm-hm. All right. So this is food made out of felt. I know we have a friend who does like, felt artwork and Christy ordered- She got Lionel Richie, right? Ordered that Lionel Richie, that we have in the creative house. What is, like, felt, the felt board, She’s done a lot of stuff. If you grew up going to church, they did a lot of illustrations, of Bible stories on felt boards. ‘Cause it would just stick on it. And this is the same exact thing, but it’s just food. That would make a lot more sense than what it actually is, because it’s custom felted, miniatures of animals. It’s like, are you- Holy Moley. Look at that doggy. Good Gosh. I mean, you’d think it was real, especially, look at that face. Oh gosh. Do you know the price tags on felt? I would say, I think that dog goes for no less than $400. Well it’s 2-75. Okay. But the squirrel. A little bit less than $400, it’s a deal. The squirrel. Is that an albino squirrel? The squirrel is a wedding topper, for $595. The detail, the craftsmanship that goes into that. It’s amazing. Man. I had no idea. This is bad, y’all shouldn’t be showing this. I’m going to be going shopping at Etsy now. Do not put that near your candle, though. I’m not familiar with wedding cake toppers, enough, I don’t think. I paid $40 for that squirrel. I mean a felted squirrel holding a bouquet. Is that a, like, what kind of wedding toppers are out there nowadays? Stevie. You can get one with two ladies. Two lady squirrels? Yeah. You can get lesbian squirrel wedding toppers. I mean, marriage. Marriage is in the air, you know, Patty and Dark on The Society. Stevie. What about you? Yeah, let’s do it Stevie. Come on now. Well, now that I found this wedding topper. We will officiate, I do think that’s what’s pushing me, right over the line. Okay. And we’ll do it on the Mythical Society. Yeah. Next year on the Mythical Society. “Pastrymade”. Can you sell food on Etsy? Pastry made. Yeah. You can? I think it’s M-A-I-D. So it’s like, it’s some photos of people cleaning up after pastry chefs. Right? Okay. ‘Cause there’s a lot of flakes, especially with croissants. Yeah. You gotta rake up your flake. A croissant, that’s been made right, makes so many flakes. You got to bring a maid in. It’s engraved rolling pins. That emboss designs and patterns on baked goods. Ho. oh, what? Is that how that’s done? Pastrymade. I just feel like there are so many things that I want to do in my life. And every single time you show me something, I want to do it. Do not give this man his own Etsy. No. Could you imagine? The cookies that I can make and put in little baggies, and hand out to people? I kind of could. I’d do a little stack of them. I’d tie them up with a little bow. I’d put them in a little basket. Put a little squirrel on top of it. Lesbian squirrels for you, Stevie. Thank you. So they they lay the dough out, and then they just roll that, and then they figure out where to put the cookie cutter, based on the design. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It’s easy. Easy peasy. All right. I really don’t care for this. That’s how we’re different. This one’s called, “Oh Stuffinell”. Oh Stuffinell? Oh, stuff an L. Oh Stuffinell. Stuff an L. Stuffinell? Old Stuffinell. Old Stuffinell, hasn’t erupted since 1743. How do you stuff an L? What does L stand for? An L is like a, like a bad thing. Like a L like, Taking an L. I dunno how trendy this is, if you’re taking an L. But if you stuff an L, it’s a stuffed art piece, that represents a bad thing that happened in your life. Yep. Yep. So close. But it’s actually taxidermized mice in stripper poses. Great. And the visual payoff is totally worth it. I’m not as into this. I wish I knew why it was called Stuffinell. Talk about a wedding cake topper. Yeah. You don’t want actual taxidermy touching your cake. So that’s a real mouse. Yes. Yes. Look at that smile. You think a fake mouse could do that? You can’t get a fake mouse to do that. What do you think the pricing is, on these bad boys? Oh, this is less than a hundred bucks for these, because it actually doesn’t take as much precision. I’ve seen Chuck Testa work with something small like this before. I think you can get this for 90, 95 bucks. Under a hundred? A hundred and seven, ninety eight, and a hundred and twelve, sixteen. Okay. All right. Bring it down a little bit. Now this reminds me. This is my first Christmas with a cat. Oh, okay. So I don’t know what I would, with the tree situation and the cat. Are you worried about all the stuffed mice you have? Stockings? There’s gonna be a whole Ear Biscuits podcast. So Ear biscuits. How to like, dealing with the cat at Christmas. Hmm. But I definitely can’t put one of those on the tree. Put a real dead mouse? You could, as a distraction. To keep it, to pull it away from everything else. If I give him his own tree. Does that do it Ben? Nope. Yep. It’s just like the scratching post. He still scratches everything else. Right. All right. One more? No. No more. Good. Stuff an L.
