Welcome to “Good Mythical More.” Let’s explore some of the wildest and exorbitantly priced Airbnbs that you can stay in on this planet. Okay, that sounds cool, man. But first, let’s play Ready, Pet, Go! where we look at a pet that you submitted, and we try to guess it’s name. This one comes from Anna Allen. Anna Allen’s got a- Gerbil, hamster. Is it a gerbil? It’s either a gerbil or a guinea pig? Guinea pig. It’s a guinea pig. Okay. You know what, Porky. I never thought about the fact that, like, guinea pigs were just like a wild creature in, like, Peru. When you went like to the highlands of Peru, did you see any guinea pigs? Just like- Well- pigging around, Stevie? They do something a little bit different with guinea pigs. They… It’s a delicacy. Yeah. Did you eat ’em? I did not. You didn’t have one as a pet? I did not. All right, let’s call this one, Lunch. I think Spencer. Spencer. I think we call this one, Logy. What is he about to eat? It looks like it might be- Granola bar. And they make these- What is it? noises. Looks like it might be a little nug. What’s uh, what’s the name? Uh- Uh, I said- Oh no, I’m asking to reveal what the name. Why is it reveal it? Llama, okay. Peruvian. I see, I was picking up on the Peruvian. Yeah, you were right all over it. Mm-hmm. Now, would you eat it? It somebody’s pet, man. I never said I would eat it. Oh, okay. If you were there and it was served to you and it was not a pet, would you eat it? Hmm, moral dilemma. I mean the cute little bacon you could get off that thing. Oh, see, there you go. It is a pig. It’s still a pig. Okay, so recently have you searched on Airbnb? Oh, yeah. Like there’s a- Okay, so you know, like the OMG- I’m an Airbnb champ. You know, the OMG section? No, what’s that? Is that like the super special ones? Yeah, that’s like- Tree house. Yeah, exactly. This is a UFO- Space shuttle. situation, whatever. That’s kind of the territory we’re in. S,o it’s not like these are like, some of these aren’t, like, super pricey necessarily, but they’re all, like, very specific. Notable. Yeah. They’re all, like, OMG. They’re all, like, OMG. Like take this first one, an elephant house in New Jersey. Wow. So, I have some fun facts for you. Where’s the stairs? It’s located in the heart of Jersey Shore. Have you ever been to the Jersey Shore? No, I don’t think so. Well, is that where Atlantic City is? Is it technically? No, I don’t know if technically it is. We’ve been to Atlantic city. We’ve been to Atlantic city. 2008. So I can, there’s a house behind it. There’s also like- Oh, it says, “Just five miles from world famous Atlantic city,” in my fun facts. So, we’ve been there. We were so close to it. Yeah, yeah, I think I saw it, I just thought it was a roaming elephant. It’s one bedroom, one bath. Close to the beach. Do you pee out of the back of it? Like, that would be cool. Yup. If, like, if the toilet dumped out of the butthole of the elephant. Yup, that’s right unto the beach. And then like your gray water comes out of the trunk. Came of of the trunk. This is interesting. It says that, the listing speaks from the point of view of the elephant whose name is Lucy. Hmm-mm. “I hosted my first day in 1902.” God. “and over the years, I’ve been a tavern and hosted a United States President. Today, I’m one of the Jersey Shore’s most recognizable faces.” That’s cool. I mean, that is pretty cool. The inside decor- It’s one bedroom, it’s one just open area. I mean, you’re in an elephant. So, you know… It looks like the bed is coming from, like, the back haunches and you’d be facing that front. Is that window the anus? Or is that window- Well, is that a- It’s not the front of the- Is that a deck? Like, what is that picture where you can see the beach? Where is that from? Is that, like, the rear of the elephant? That’s not the front. No, that’s the carrier thing on top, on the saddle. Oh yeah, okay, I see that. Oh, that’s pretty cool, it has a little crows’ nest. All right, that’s changing my answer. Hmm, it’s only got three reviews on Airbnb. Whoa, that’s interesting. Three reviews. I’m glad you just pointed that out. How much per night. It does make a difference. Does make a difference. I’m going down from where I was. Yeah, I think this is a treat for one night, but I don’t think you want to do three. You might can’t get away with. What you go with? $225 a night. Oh, wow, okay. I said $725. Nope, nope, there’s no way it costs that much. Okay, one of you really does look around on Airbnb. The price is $239 a night. Wow. Yeah, baby. Yeah. That’s pretty close, wasn’t it? Wow. Hey- That’s not bad, I mean- We never found a numbers’ guessing game that you’re good at. Well, gimme a few other shots. Okay. What’s the next one? Let’s try the potato hotel in Idaho. Whoa, that is realistic looking. It’s just a potato sitting out in the field. Does it move? Because the big picture and then the smaller picture look like two different places. It’s a stationary potato. I believe we’re looking at two different sides of the potato, possibly. Where’s the bed? So there’s a bed on one side and then on the other side, there’s just a, you know. Yeah, it’s a singular bedroom and bathroom. No windows. Doesn’t appear to have one of those. No, ’cause potatoes don’t have windows. That’s strange for another- It’s on 400 acres of good old Idaho farmland, Just south of Downtown Boise. Wonder how it got there. Did it fall from the sky or did it grow up out of the ground? Usually, you have to dig ’em up. “There is also a customized silo turned into a spa retreat perfect for soaking while looking up at the stars.” I can never use the original meaning of soaking, ever again. It’s really, it’s ruined. Big Idaho Potato Hotel. Lots of reviews here, 539. Super host. I don’t know, man. I don’t know. Oh, you also get- I made some bad Airbnb decisions in the past. the cutest Jersey cow in the world, which I guess is a type of cow? Is that candy? Wait, I’m confused. “… who will be your fuzzy pet for the stay.” Oh, so you’re on a farm and there’s like a cow that comes out the potato and like take the crap- That’s part of the experience. Okay, you locked in? Yeah. I said $180 a night. I said $189 a night. Whoo, okay. $207 a night. I got you number today, man. Dang, man. Hey, okay, it’s only second round. 209? Wow. What? You said, $209 to staying in a potato in Idaho. 207, yeah, 207. I mean, you gotta take into account too- That’s weird. that you’re in a 400 acre, like Idaho farmland environment. So, you’ll be going there for the potato stay, I guess. You’d be, I mean, I might do one night, but, like, I don’t know. You do it for the Insta. Yeah, yeah. That’s why you do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, you can be like, “I’m gonna get some likes, finally, cause I’m staying in the potato.” Tuff cliff cave house- Say what? in France. Tuff cliff cave house. Well, I’m looking at that first picture and I can’t even see it. Is this like an ancient cave? Yes? Slightly unclear, but it says exposed cave walls, including this shower. I’ve always wanted to do this, stay in a cave house, really. It’s two bedrooms, two bath, one… I mean, two bedrooms, one bath. Mm-hmm. Fireplace, no fire alarm. You don’t need one in a cave. Piano. You do need a piano on a cave. Well, the acoustics in a cave, you know, you- You gotta take advantage of it. You gotta take advantage of it. Oh, but it says, “This accommodation only accepts lovers of all kinds, life, nature, the human being.” So,- So, no haters. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Haters, back off. I will be remiss if I didn’t point out that this is in the Cotignac, Provence-Alpes-Cote d’Azur The blue coast of France. Yeah. It’s on the coast of France. That’s gonna affect the pricing. Oh man, this is not easy. This is gonna be in francs? Yup, but do the translation to dollars. I’m gonna do it in dollars. Okay. I went with $521. Went a little lower, $411. Huh. Well this, I mean, there’s an international thing at play here. I’m not gonna fault you guys, it’s $112 a night. Oh that- That stay on a cave? We went the wrong direction. I thought because it was, like, yeah, it was, like, it seems to be an ancient cave, like, you could, you know, top billing for this thing. Wow, you still got it right Yeah, I did. You were born for a sweeper. We were thinking the same thing. I wanna remind you, we got this new mug. We got two of ’em, like I’ve got. You’ve got the Link, “You know what time it is,” with the GMM logo on the back. And then you got the Rhett. “Good Mythical Morning.” With the green GMM logo. So, you can buy these separately, you can buy ’em together. I believe- There’s a discount if you get ’em together, right? Yep. And our previous mug, the 10 years of Mythicality Mug, we’re not making those anymore. There’s a few left, so when they’re gone, they’re gone. You go to mythical.com to shop for your mugs. You can go stay in that cave house for 112 bucks a night. How do they, I mean. It must not be- How do they make money? It must not be that posh, you know. A fairytale boot in New Zealand. Oh! In New Zealand, New Zealand. A fairytale boot. This is a one bedroom, one bath. Not a really good shot of the whole boot, like, I’m kind of disappointed. Yeah, you get it. Give us the boot part. We gotta, you gotta zoom out here. We gotta see the whole boot. Maybe it doesn’t really look as much like a boot as they want it to, so they don’t ever show. That’s one of the things that I’ve learned with Airbnb is how to look at the fringes of one picture and then another picture to kinda- Stitch? To kind of stitch it together in my mind, to say like- The old mind stitch? oh, this bedroom, and then this seating area are actually right on top of each other. It’s just that they pointed the camera in totally different directions. You know what I’m saying? Hmm. So it’s like you, that’s why you gotta read reviews and you gotta know what to look for, man. Well, this got 71 reviews and pretty high rating here. It’s in New Zealand. I don’t know how the New Zealand is like. Nelson, New Zealand. I don’t know how the New Zealand- Picturesque. Cost of living or whatever. Comes with the shower built for two. Shower boat? Shower built for two. If you wanna bathe- The shower is so big- you gotta get on a boat. it requires a boat. Two guests, one bedroom- I mean, I like the- one bath. I like those chimneys. They got the indoor fireplace and the outdoor fireplace. Look at those couples, just Kiwiing in it up. All righty. I want to go to New Zealand, but I don’t wanna stay. Looks a little too cramped. I like high design, modern places, like that’s my jam when it comes to like Airbnb. I like places that don’t have that much stuff in them because that means there’s less stuff that has germs and stuff on it. Does that make sense? Well, it seems like- Yeah. you should just stay at a hotel, then. Yeah, like in a hotel. Like you’re staying in a full house, they’re not going through in just a couple hours and like really cleaning up. My wife, she does not like. I am kinda, like, sometimes Airbnb, sometimes hotel, but she is like hotel all the way. She’s like, “Listen, they clean the stuff for you. They bring you sheets and stuff. Like things that are like systematized and they work.” Yeah. It’s a different experience. But if you’re going somewhere for like a long time and you have to like take multiple family members, et cetera- Yeah. you know, that makes sense. Right. $201. $265. $182. Dang, Link. Yeah, yep, yep. I was thinking that maybe the New Zealand, like, you know, it’s like cost of living is a little bit increased. But no, okay, you can stay in a boot for a hundred and… How much? 82, $82. I’m all a boot it. Okay, here’s your New Zealand experience, but in Washington. Hobbit holes. Old house. In Washington. This underground Hygge, that’s the… I don’t know how to say it, the Swedish word for… Huga. Huga- Huga. Just comfy. It means quality of coziness- Cozy. and comfort. These are popping up. I think there’s one down there in San Diego. This is one up in Washington. I want to go to the real ones in New Zealand. Yeah, I don’t think you should do this if you are not in New Zealand. And I think that that has a drastic impact. Look at that view from the front door out. Pretty nice. That’s nice. It’s six acres of private land to hike around and explore. Six acres. Washington State. I don’t know where Orondo is. Hmm. I’m just trying to get one. Okay, I’m going to say, six acres, pretty high ratings, 4.8, could be… But this is that one room… Right. $550 a night. $178. We’ve we… $400 a night. What is it? $400. Yeah, I won again, dude. Dang. Now why, how did you know that? Because Washington State is quite a destination. That’s a beautiful piece of land and that’s a very unique experience that is curated pretty well. I mean, look at the detailing of that fireplace. Look at the detail of the doorknob. You should have a YouTube channel where you just talk about Airbnb listings. Okay. This is what you should really think about this one. You don’t like, you’re not the guy who goes and stays in them and gives you a report. You’re the guy who’s like, “Listen, I’ve looked at this listing and I know exactly what you should think about it and what it’s actually worth.” I mean, that could be a good service for people. Like, “Look at the stitching, You see this area right here? It’s really just this area.” And you would, like, have digital software that brings it together and be like, “This is exactly what this would look like.” Oh. You’re called, “The Airbnb truther.” Truther. Air Be And Truth. Airbnt. For sure. Airbnt with Link. Airbnt, I like it. Anybody interested? Anybody? Okay, okay, Airbnt. Subscribers are gonna line up. How about this cube thing in Norway? Going for the queen sweep. Oh, in Norway. Okay, this is interesting because I’ve been thinking about Norway a lot lately. Cozy, that word is back. Bird box. I’m thinking about going to Norway. Now, I’m intrigued by this. They call it a tree house down there. Yeah, it’s confusing because the definition of bird box is a house for birds? And it also doesn’t have any relation to the movie, “Bird Box,” so I don’t know why it’s called a bird box, per se, but- I mean, it kind of looks like a bird box. SEO. Yeah. It’s got that big hole in it that the bird would fly in if the bird was like a giant bird, you know. But see here’s the thing- No interior pictures. See that… No interior, well, you have to click on “Show all photos,” but this is a beautiful spot But look at that bottom center photo. What do you notice about it? Skis in the ground? Well, maybe you can ski and ski out. But just to the right there’s another structure, right up against it. Is that somebody else staying in another bird box or is that your bathroom? You got to find out. This is exactly, exactly how I think about all of my Airbnb listing. You wanna make sure that somebody’s not living in a bird box that. You don’t wanna wake up in a bird box. Oh, in the listing says that this is an outhouse situation. Yeah, the bathroom. It’s an outhouse, you’re sure? Yeah. And the other thing that’s interesting is that- Looks isolated. you have to park your car at a ski resort and then hike 15 minutes uphill. And there’s no full bath, it’s a half bath, so you cannot shower. Oh, you got a 15-minute uphill hike? But, that’s a nice box. The Norwegian’s are ruddy, man. They are ruddy. Oh, yeah, there’s no running water, but none of the reviews mention it as being an issue. Cause you know what you’re getting yourself into. You’re in the middle of nowhere, up there in a box, that’s a… I mean, Hmm. I’m going with my initial instinct here. Nope, I’m changing my answer. I’m really trying hard because you built me up. Okay. What’d you say? I said $333.33. Wow. I mean, we were all over it. I changed my answer from $233 to $321. Am I gonna get one? $321. It’s $360. Yes. Aww, man. Yes, I got one! But, hey, we were both so close to this one. $360 a night, that’s pretty cool. Would you do it? I don’t know. I gotta read the reviews about that hike. You know what I’m saying? I’ve been looking at Norway stuff, Norway, it’s like really a cool spot. Are they gonna bring my bags up for me? Scandinavia in general, it just seems like a place I could go and just blend in. People would be like, “Oh, he’s a local.” I wanna ski up a mountain, but I don’t wanna be carrying my entire family’s luggage on my back. “Look at that local man skiing with his family to the bird box.” “Oh, just another local Norwegian man enjoying our local bird box.” Now you, maybe a total American, total American. “Look at that American man with his family.” “Anybody know where’s the Raising Cane’s is?” Skiing up to the bird box.
