Welcome to Good Mythical More. If you’re like me, you love a weird street name, something that makes you giggle, makes you squirm, makes you say, “Prove it. That can’t be real.” And then Stevie’s like, “Well, let me show you right here on Google Maps. And I’m like, “Well, look at what you did. You’ve proven it.” And if you’re like me, you like to you boogie down now! I did that all with the upper body. Upper body? Yeah, I find that if I just flail my arms, it seems like I’m being really active, but my heart rate didn’t go up. ‘Cause your heart’s not connected to your arms. Nope, that’s right. A lot of people don’t know that. You know what? My heart rate did go up a little bit, but not nearly as much as it could have. I opened up a cadaver one time and searched What’s you find in there? For the connection. Arms to heart. Couldn’t find it. I followed a lot of things from the arm, but they all led to the shoulder. Right. And then the shoulder was just next to the heart. But nothing connected to the heart from the shoulder. It’s weird. You get yourself a cadaver, you’ll see what I mean. Streets. 1-800-CADAVERS. We all have them. We’re all near them. What’s the weirdest street? But some of them have weird names. What’s the weirdest street you remember as a kid? Anybody? Johnson Pond Road. Just think about our pond full of Johnsons. Johnson Pond Road. We had James Slaughter. James Slaughter Road, yeah. I don’t know, maybe there’s not that many weird ones from where we come from. I mean, just think about it. A pond full of Johnsons. Stevie what’s the weirdest road? I was trying to think about- I was trying to go over my Greensboro street names, but I can’t really think of any. My dad did have a- which I think I told at the time- a good dad joke. When we were out in the country, there was a street that I believe was Laurel Street. And he pointed at it and he was like, “You ever been on Yanny Street?” It was a Laurel Yanny joke. Oh! It was that recent, huh? It was that recent. I think that was five years- It was in the internet age. But it was in the time when that joke would made sense. So within a month of it- It was a good one, right? I thought that was a good joke. That’s is really good. We don’t have many fun street names He’s informed. In Greensboro. Friendly. Friendly’s a little weird of a street name, I guess. Friendly and Market Street. But you know what? Sometimes I pick up- Friendly Street? Sometimes I take a piece of gold out of my pocket, and I’m like, “Is this gold or blue?” That’s my dad joke that I do. I carry a piece of gold. A lot of y’all didn’t know about that. I’ve never seen it. Let me see it. I don’t have it right now. Weiner! Weiner, Weiner. The name of the street. Weiner! Weiner! I just said my safe word. Weiner. My safe word is wiener. Weiner Cutoff Road. Oh! Oh! With part of the road in Weiner, Arkansas, and the other part in Harrisburg. You know, it’s the Weiner cutoff. Weiner Cutoff Road. It’s so you don’t have to go through the Weiner. You don’t have to go through the Weiner. You go around the Weiner. Weiner Cutoff Road? Interestingly, the shoulder was connected to the wiener in the cadaver. So if you punch the shoulder- Ow. I hurt your wiener? I felt it in my wiener. That’s real, man. What does this do? Oh, hey. Well, you better watch out. Don’t do that too many times. I think this is real. This is real. Weiner Cutoff. Weiner Cutoff Road. Because they didn’t think about it. It was like, “Oh, well, this is how you get around.” It’s a cutoff around Weiner. It’s a cutoff around Weiner, which is, I just think a Weiner is a town. You know, you say Weiner, I think town. ‘Cause I live in Weiner. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don’t know. I think the city planning people had a time with this particular real road name. They knew what were doing. ‘Cause it is real. Despite the name, the road is over six miles long. There it is right there. You’re showing it to us on Google Maps. That’s the flat part of Arkansas. Oh, look, you can click right there to report a problem on Weiner Cutoff. I got a problem when my wiener cut off. It wasn’t clean. Wasn’t a clean cut. Is this the whole road? No, this is just- man, look at that. That little farmhouse with some tractors and stuff. Yeah, what if your address was Weiner Cutoff Road? Rhett Mclaughlin. One, two, three. Weiner Cutoff! Look at how that… Right on the edge of the cutoff, you’ve got a farm built. That’s what happens when you cut off your wiener. Silos. It grows a farm. It grafts. You can graft a farm onto your wiener cutoff. There’s so much potential here. I hope they go uphill from here. What I’m asking is, is the next one this fun? Ring Ding Dong Road. Ring Ding Dong? Ring Ding Dong in- Ring Ding Dong. Busan, South Korea. Ring Ding Dong Road. In South Korea? Ring-a-ding. Ring-a-ding-a-dong. Ring-a-ding-dong. I think you can either ding dong or you can ring something. No, I think because you said South Korea, you can’t just make up a road and say it’s in South Korea and it be Ring Ding Dong. It has to be real. I just don’t think- I completely agree with your reasoning. If you guys made this up- You guys did that. Yeah, we’re cutting it out. I’m feeling kind of bad about the fact that you did this. I don’t know. It just seems like it’s not appropriate. Okay, it is fake, but it was written by- Not a good look, guys. A major K-pop fan, who I won’t name, because “Ring Ding Dong” is a song by the K-pop group SHINee that actually had to be banned during college entrance exams because it was too addictive and distracted students on a national level. So now I look like the bad guy. Yeah, and you made me look like the bad guy. Hmm. Who is the K-pop fan? Is this you Kalyn? Yeah, that’s like my whole thing. It’s sort of my identity. It’s already been proven. You’re quite the fangirl for K-pop, for all types of stuff. Three streets this time is what my coffee said. Three streets, three streets. This Street, That Street, and The Other Street in Nova Scotia, Canada. This, that, and the other. Nova Scotia? Nova Scotia. Could it be that they only have three streets? Well, you know, you can… You know how this is a thing that would happen in the South. It’s either This Street, That Street, or The Other Street. Do you know that a family would have some land, and they would build a house on it. And then the daughter and the son would build houses on it, and then they would name it something. Yeah, it’s like private little road. I mean, you can just name a street- Like Timmy’s Lane. But they would get a real sign. This is all over Harnett county, Wake county, right? I like this. Streets can be named anything, just so you know. I think it has to say PVT for private. I don’t know. I didn’t get that close. You know in “Ozark” where Ruth lives? And others depending on what season you’re on. By the lake. No spoilers. And it’s like a little- the whole family has their own little trailer set up, but then it’s like a mini town. You know, it’s not portrayed as a mini town. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I love it. But I kinda like it. Like a mobile home park? But branches of the family. It’s like instead of having your own room, you have your own trailer spot. I always thought that that was a good idea. We had a dream at one point- I like that. When we were younger to get four single wides and put them in a courtyard. And it would be like here’s a one single wide trailer- Here’s another one. But it’s like, you have to put a door on the end of a single wide, and then it backs on top of that one. And you go out of the door into the other one. They connect. And you do that all four and then there’s grass- There’s a aboveground pool in the middle. What was it? You said this was a dream of yours? This is a dream we talked about. It’s a dream of ours. We would have our families together in a courtyard. It’s a corporate dream. Do you know they got triple wides now? Whew, boy. I walked in one. When we were thinking about what house we were gonna buy back in Fuquay-Varina, I took a little stop- I had driven past that trailer place on 401 so many times. I was like, “I’m stopping in today. That triple wide sign has really got me.” They don’t take walk-ins, do they? Oh yeah, they do. That’s all they take there. You’re not talking about the place where they built- You think the trailer sales place is by appointment only? For some reason I was thinking about- Oh, they don’t take walk-ins there. The trailer manufacture- That’s a sophisticated operation. Remember there was a trailer manufacturing place. I tried to get a job at in high school, yeah. Yeah, I thought you were talking about that place. ‘Cause they paid 14 bucks an hour in 1994. Yeah, ’cause it was hot in there. But the middle of a triple wide trailer- No, 401. Yeah, the middle of a triple wide trailer- You know how big a triple wide is? There’s no walls. It’s such a open floor plan. The triple wide that I didn’t buy was less expensive and more square footage than the house I did buy. Yeah, probably three times- ‘Cause my wife was like, “We can’t have wheels on the house.” And I was like, “Okay.” You can put picketing in front of the wheels. I was like, “Yeah, we’re gonna do a whole thing. No one will ever know. No one will know.” What’s the name of that street that you’re asking us about? It’s true. All that’s real. This Street, That Street, and The Other Street. Nova Scotia. Nope. It’s real. All three streets are located right near one another on the coast of Porters Lake. This, That, and The Other. If you go down That Street and take a right, you’re on The Other Street. You know what I’m saying? You would think that That Street was a loop, but that’s not how it is. This Street goes all the way to the water, to the dock. Well, The Other Street almost goes to the water. That Street doesn’t. I wouldn’t wanna live on That Street. MacDonald Fencing at the intersection of This and That Street. I’m at a corner of That Street and The Other Street. 911, I have an emergency. Where are you? Oh, This, That, and The Other. Blah, blah, blah, blah. Porter Lake. MacDonald, I didn’t see that. I thought you were talking about a fencing place. MacDonald’s Fencing Company, located strategically at the intersection of This and That. Are those trailers? Those are long houses. I think those are- Yes, they call them long houses. I think they’re trailers. A couple people got a double wide. No, triple wides. Triple wides are tough to get on the highway. All right, what else you got? Farfrompoopen Road. Farfrompoopen. Farfrompoopen? Also in Arkansas. Farfrompoopen, Arkansas. Is it one word, Farfrompoopen? Yeah, Farfrompoopen. Bogus. Ain’t gonna happen. So I get the implication is that you’re far from a good place to poop. You can poop- You’re in the middle of nowhere. You can poop in your car. Sometimes planned, sometimes unplanned. Well, if you’re in the middle of- You’re not quite in the middle of nowhere ’cause then you could just crap on anywhere you wanted. The truth is you’re never really far from pooping unless you’re constipated. That’s the only time you’re… In fact, you’re as close to pooping- You can’t get any closer to pooping just being a person. You know what I’m saying? You’re never far from pooping. I thought that the farthest you are from pooping is right after you’ve pooped. Not always, though. Not always. Sometimes it’s like opening the dam. I think it’s, yeah, sometimes it’s, like, the farthest you are from pooping is the midpoint between your last and your next poop session. And sadly you don’t know when that is. You don’t, you don’t, you don’t know. Until it’s gone. You don’t know when you’re far from pooping. I’ll tell you, I’m always ready to fart, though. It’s real. So they’re all been real. What? Well, no. Are you kidding me? Ring Ding Dong. Oh, Ring Ding Dong. Farfrompoopen. Farfrompoopen. It’s in Arkansas so it doesn’t have an accent to it. Farfrompoopen. Farfrompoopen. Where does it go? I guess it would have an accent. It would just be like, “Farfrompoopen.” Near the pooping. Turtle Head Lane. Arkansas, man. They got lots of trees down there. You been there? I wanna know where this goes. If you’re on 298, you hang a right. If you’re going north on 298, hang a right on Farfrompoopen. I was recently- I showed you this the other day. I was in my contacts needing to add someone to my contacts list, and I still- I’m an Apple guy, so it’s just like, my contacts are still in the contacts app on my computer. Mine too. And I brought up somebody. I started, you know, typing in a new name, and then I saw a name under the name that I just added. And I was like, “I haven’t thought about this person in forever.” And then I clicked on their name, and I saw in the notes part of the entry, line by line directions to their home because this is what we used to do. You would have to go to somebody’s house. So you would go on the internet, you would go to MapQuest, you would put in your address, put in their address, it would put it out line by line, and then you would take it and cut and paste it into your contacts. Well, you could print it out. You print it out. There would be ads on the- But it was literally like, “Start out on my street, go 0.1 miles, take a right.” And that was how you got places. There’s a certain section of my contacts that have directions to their home. Turn by turn directions. It’s just such a moment in time that I was like, “I can’t believe that that happened.” Thank goodness that time has passed, you know? You know what hadn’t passed? The future. You know what’s happening in the future? Stevie’s season two podcast with Neagheen. Stevie, you gearing up for this? I mean, it’s happening in the future, it’s happening currently while you’re talking about it right now. “Best Friends Back, Alright!” is already back for season two in the present. Now, you didn’t call it “Best Friends Back, Again.” That’s too much to change. All the art has to be changed. Maybe season three. Huh? All the art has to change. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It would be too much. You know what? Find the podcast you love best from the Mythical pod showcase. Showcase. There’s “Ear Biscuits.” There’s “Trevor Talks Too Much.” There’s “Best Friends Back, Alright!” There’s “Dispatches from Myrtle Beach” with my dad. You can just open your ears and just lay back and take it all in. Mm-hmm, wherever you get your spodge-casts. Your spodge-casts. Let’s do another one. Nutswamp Road. Nutswamp? Nutswamp. Nutswamp Road in Middletown Township, New Jersey. This seems waiting to happen. Nutswamp. Well, I don’t think I would’ve believed it if you hadn’t said anything but New Jersey. I thought she said Tennessee. Middletown, New Jersey. You know what is so weird is that my- not my thesis my senior year of college, but like, you know, you had to make a little short film. But I mean, this is Syracuse and not in the film department, so who are we kidding? But mine was called Middletown. Middletown, New Jersey. What was it about? Well, it was a little dark and- What do you mean? Give us a synopsis. What do you mean it was a little dark? Well, okay. It was about a high school in Middletown. Really? And? And then we won’t go further than that because it was a little too on-the-nose for life that we’re living now and not for a comedy show. I thought you were gonna say too on-the-nose for yourself. I was gonna be like, “It was a gay high school.” No, and I think one of the guys in my group for that project actually is from this place in New Jersey, Middletown, New Jersey, and so yeah. Yeah, I don’t think there’s a swamp there. There’s not swamps in New Jersey. I’ve searched. Didn’t even look at this reveal before I talked, but it is real. Ah! And it is the namesake for an elementary school nearby. Nut Swamp Elementary. Boy, once you dip ’em in, they get soggy. Good Lord. I mean… Nutswamp. Right across the street from Thompson Middle School. Like man, once you’ve gone in the Nut Swamp, you can do anything. What do you think their mascot is? A cat of some sort. I can’t… What do you think their mascot is? I think it’s a wrinkly- It’s a rash. Nut sack that looks like a tiger. The Nut Swamp rash. So close. Creeping. The tiger. Nut Swamp tiger. Yeah, but let me see his scrotum. He’s making a face that… Somebody’s grabbing his scrotum. Just pulling on it like pulling on some blinds. They really doubled down. He’s wearing a You let it go, it’s like . Nut Swamp. Just in case you forgot, Nut Swamp. Yeah. Nut Swamp! All right, let’s do a V-up. I hope that’s not too risque for you two. For you two. Join Stevie and her high school best friend, Neagheen, every week on their podcast, “Best Friends Back, Alright!” Check it out wherever you listen to your podcasts.
