Welcome to “Good Mythical More.” Sometimes your hands are being used for stuff while your mouth needs to be used for candy. So how do you get that candy out of its wrapper? Well, you use your mouth, silly. That’s what we’re gonna try to do. We’re gonna try to open these candies with just our mouths to find out which candies are the easiest to open with your mouth. But first, let’s- These are our answers to the questions that were conjugated. But first, we’re going to guess the definition of ecdysiast. There’s not enough vowels in there. Ecdysiast. Ecdysiast. Ecdysiast. Is it a person who… Ecdysiast. This can mean like the opposite or whatever or improper- This word is just too hard to say, to be an actual word. “Ec” is like ectoplasm. So this is someone who is mean. Someone who thinks they’re a ghost. Like a “ectodeist.” They believe they believe in ghosts that are themselves. Yeah. A striptease performer. A striptease performer. What? No! The word for that is a stripper. Yeah. Right. Like why make up a word “ecdysiast?” It’s so you could put it on your resume and no one will know. What did you do from 2007 to 2011? I was a ecdysiast. Don’t ask or do ask. Whatever. More power to you. Striptease. Is a striptease performer different than a stripper? Yeah, I think. Well, okay, I’m not sure, but I think that there’s like… What is that word for “it’s not really stripping, but it’s almost?” Burlesque. Burlesque. It’s a tease. You think you might get some stripping, but you don’t really. Is that ecdysiast music? Like if I go to a strip club, is that what I’m gonna hear? No, I don’t think so. Put that in your mouth. I think it will be higher based than that. See if you can open it. Give me a level of confidence that you’re gonna be able to open this. Like, on a scale of one to five, how confident are you gonna be able to open it? And I wanted you to say before you put it in your mouth. Well, now it’s in my mouth, one. No, I think I can do this. I’m gonna give this a “four” level of confidence, but it’s twisted on the end. The good old “Werther’s Original.” Basically, you have to take the candy and untwist it while keeping the end in your teeth, so you bite both sides of it, and then use your tongue to barrel roll it. I think. But what if you have twisted it in the wrong direction? I’m doing it. I’ve broken the seal. I’m doing it. Have I done it? No. Haven’t done anything. I started tasting it. But look, I’m breaking the seal. This one’s frustrating. Okay, I got it. I got it. Of course, I got the wrap in my mouth. Oh, sorry. I’ll clean that up. I got it. So we should race on the next ones. Well, I won that one. What’s this? Taste it like your great granddaddy. This is candy. It’s a Hi-Chew. This is a Hi-Chew? Oh, so this one’s got some gift wrapping on the end. This should be easy, right? It’s kind of like the Starburst which… Here’s Starburst, and we have done this with Starburst in the distant “Good Mythical” past. Right? All right, so we’re gonna count down and we’re going to race. 3, 2, 1. You’re supposed to do it without chewing. Oh, I did it again! I don’t know if that went… I won because I’m spitting out the candy. I’m unwrapping it, and then I have to catch it with my hand. Oh! I did it too. I caught it between my calves. Oh, the calves are great for kitchen. Do I get a point for that? So we both did the same thing. We’re both disqualified. You’ve gotta get the wrapper out but not the candy. Tootsie roll. This is gonna be just like Werther’s Roll, maybe harder. All right, here we go. 3, 2, 1. 3, 2, 1. Come on, Tootsie. It’s in there, all good. Let me see you, Tootsie, unroll. Come on. I stuck to it. I got it. How’d you do that? You just chewed it up. There it is. I didn’t care about the stuff on the end. I just cared about the stuff in the middle. I used to eat a lot of Tootsie Rolls at my nanny’s house. Mine’s just disintegrating. Look at that. Always had Tootsie Rolls, and they would have every kind of Tootsie Roll over there; the little ones- You really had the toot in the tootsie. They would have the bigger ones. There were some that were like this big. I think we’ve had this discussion before. Then there were some that were longer. Stevie, how do you say it? “Toot-sie.” “Toot-sie Roll,” right. Not “Toot-zie Roll.” “Toot-zie roll.” I think also… I’ve been paying attention this whole time, clearly, but have we lost the plot of trying to discover what the easiest candy to open in your mouth is versus who can do it the quickest? Yeah. Okay, that’s what I thought. That’s what I- Well, so far Hi-Chew is the easiest ’cause it’s folded and not twisted, so I’ll tell you that. Right now, “Hi-Chew” is the easiest. Lost the plot. Thanks for telling me there was a plot? If you go to Hershey, Pennsylvania, and you go to the Tootsie Roll Factory, and the person giving the tour says, “Welcome to the ‘blank’ factory,” How much money do you think… I would bet thousands of dollars that they will say “toot-sie roll,” not “toot-zie roll.” Yeah, I think. Think about each of the. Thousands of dollars. What is the… I can’t remember. Tootsie Pop! All the commercials, they say “toot-sie.” They don’t say “toot-zie.” And the movie, which is not the candy, but it’s not “toot-zie.” It’s “toot-sie.” Sorry guys. I don’t care if you’re ganging up on me. I have the whole crew from the Tootsie Roll song on my team. “Let me see you, Tootsie Roll. Tootsie Roll.” That’s what they say. I don’t think he says it. Oh, I think it’s a regional thing, but I’m saying, “What’s the source say?” But that’s a different kind of “tootsie” too that he’s talking about. Yeah, maybe that it’s “toot-zie” when it’s actually your booty. Oh, a tootsie is a booty? How do you roll a booty? Well, only one way to find out. All right, let’s get this Kisses. Oh, shoot! And here we go. 3, 2, 1. Oh gosh, I bit the paper right off. It’s foiled. That’s not good for your teeth. It comes from the bottom, and it goes up, right? Don’t use your hand. Mine dropped. I’m going in for round two. I’m trying to peel it. Did it. Here we go. That was not pleasant. I do not recommend doing that or watching anyone do that. That’s hard, man. Look, I did it and kept the… How did I keep that on there? We’re having so much fun. That’s cool. I would say that’s almost as easy as the Hi-Chew, but it feels more wrong. It’s not good for your teeth. We’re having fun in MythiCon, right now. We’ve been really looking forward to this. We’ve got a carnival that’s happening this afternoon. I can’t wait to be in our special place to welcome everybody. I need to start practicing. It’s gonna be awesome. I need to start practicing for my long concert. All right, Ferrero Rocher. Rocher? This feels like somebody used their mouth to wrap it. Yeah. It was like… You can say “Ferrero Rocher” correctly, but not “Tootsie Roll?” Ferrero Rocher. Here we go. 3, 2, 1. Ahh! Okay. It’s out? Yeah.I give up. I don’t like biting the- The boy? The boy? The foil. The foil. What’s inside a Ferrero Rocher? It’s like it’s a [indistinct], right? Oh man! Man! There’s a whole- That’s fancy chocolate. Yeah, there’s like a dollop of chocolate cream in there. Whoa! With a hazelnut. Look at that. Inside of that. Look at that. Is anyone watching? Okay, I think this is gonna be the easiest one, dude. Really? It’s double wrapped. Oh, it’s not double wrapped. It’s fake. No, it’s not double wrapped. It used to be real. Answering the questions you didn’t know you needed answered. It’s Rhett and Link, your boys. 3, 2, 1. I can’t get a lot. I can’t catch a flap. That flap is hard. Oh, there you go. There you go. Got it. That wasn’t pretty was it? Hmm-mm. There it is. It was not that easy. It’s not as easy. I mean, look at that. Look at all the damage I did at that. Yeah, I did a lot of damage. Not easy. All right, let’s promote something. Check out “Sporked.” They reviewed the best new Halloween candy. It’s not too late to see what the stuff is that right after Halloween you can buy. That’s new. It’s gonna be awesome. And you gotta… Most people probably haven’t gone out and gotten there. If you’re like me, you’re gonna wait till the last second to go to the grocery store and get your candies. We’re gonna fly back home from MythiCon where we are currently, and we’re going to go trick or treating that night. You’re going trick or treating with your kids? I know Lock’s not even in your house anymore. It’s just a kid at this point, and he’s 14, so no. When they turn 14, or actually in my house, when they turn double digits is when they decide that they go trick or treating with their friends and not their parents. I’m sure Orlando will go trick or treating with his friends. He’s 12, and I think we’ll still be there because we’re friends with his friends’ parents. You kind of just tag along from a distance. Yeah, it’s just as much for us as it is for them. I’m looking forward to it this year. Are you dressing up? What’s Lando gonna be? I haven’t thought about it. I haven’t asked him, but I like his friends’ parents. That’s my point. I’m hanging out with them. I’m gonna be a dad. I usually don’t dress up. I can’t remember- Sometimes, I do. I haven’t dressed up since probably 2019, the last time we had Halloween. You and Jessie dressed up last Halloween. What did I do? You were something together. Something… Wasn’t it the Jason Mamoa thing. Oh, yeah! We dressed up to take a picture for the internet. I didn’t go around trick or treating like that because Jessie’s… She was… What was she? She was something in relation to Jason Mamoa. It was Jason Mimosa. Oh, she was… Yeah. Yes, so she was a mimosa glass, but that costume was a “get in one position and pose for a picture” costume not a “I’m gonna go walk around and get in and out of a car” costume, so I don’t think it really counts as a… It counts as a picture Halloween costume, but not a trick or treating outfit. There’s a distinct difference in my mind. Now, you can eat a Starburst with the wrapper on which is probably what we did before, and then we tried to take it off. Maybe we invented a sport, and we… Excuse me. We didn’t know it. Excuse you. I got the hiccups. I still think Hi-Chew is the easiest one. The silent hiccups. Starburst may be easier, but let’s find out. 3, 2, 1. Is this visceral for you? I bet you don’t like to watch people tying knots and cherry stems either, do you? That’s all this is. Wow! I already tore mine up. Oh, I got [indistinct]. Oh, I completely tore it up. I gave up. I just started chewing it. I give up. The thing that I’ve learned is that it sticks to the candy too much. Starbursts are Hi-Chews for losers. Oh, that hurts. Hi-Chew is so much better than a Starburst because a starburst, it’s… You can’t get the rapper off in your mouth. And that’s a big thing. And second thing, not nearly as important but still worth noting, they stick to your teeth, man. It’s annoying. Hi-Chew are are just magical. And finally we have Jolly Rancher. Oh, I thought we were done. I was hoping we were done. So, this is more of that twisty Tootsie Roll. “Too-sie?” What do you want me to call it? “Toot-sie!” “Toot-sie.” “Toot-sie.” “Too-sie?” The funny thing is you changed it, and you left the wrong part and then took out a right part. “Too-sie” 3, 2… It has another name. It’s the Watusi. 1. This is hard. It’s on there real good. Got it. Not easy, but I got it. Got it. There it is. None of these are as tasty except for the Ferrero Rocher or as great of a mouth opening experience as the “Hi-Chew.” I’m a believer. Oh, that’s what was happening. What are the Hi-Chew fans called? Hi-Chewers? The Hi-Chewers. I’m a total Hi-Chewer now, y’all, and I’d like to compare my cheek bulk at the beginning of this episode and the end of it. Well, here! Have a Hi-Chew to celebrate. Oh man. It landed right on your tongue. I know, and it hurt. That was pretty accurate to toss it right up like eight feet in the air and for it to land right on your face. I feel so disappointed. Now we have to go for it again. And it hurt. Yeah. Yeah. It didn’t hurt that bad. See you tomorrow night for our live show whether you’re here or on the internet.
