Welcome to “Good Mythical More.” There’s some iconic best friend characters out there. Maybe we have unknowingly patterned our friendship after one of them. Well, and you know I often see people tweet best friend characters, like this is like Rhett and Link, so we’ll see if we see any crossover there. Yeah. Let’s see which ones we’re closest to. But first, congratulations, Kitten. Kitten got $50 to Mythical.com because Kitten is sporting that Merchicality out in the wild, #Merchicality. Listen- Kitten already had a great nature walk today and now gets this little treat. There you go. Wow. All right, spend it wisely. You know, if you rep that merch out in the wild, we might find you, we might say thank you and give you $50. We will find you, and we will thank you. Okay, best friend characters. Now people often say Frog and Toad. I see that quite often. Oh, really? Yeah, uh huh. I see that quite often. Okay, is that one of them, Stevie? These are also… I would not limit it to characters. These are just duos out in the wild. Good. You’ll see what I mean. We’re gonna start with a character though, Bert and Ernie. Okay. Classic. Well, there’s a tall one and there’s a shorter one. People would automatically make me Bert and you Ernie, because of- You used to have a unibrow. Of course, so did I. And now you have no eyebrows. No, actually, you still do. Okay, yeah, so you’re not like Ernie in that way. But I’m trying to think of- Isn’t Bert grumpy? Bert’s more like . I can’t do it. No, that’s Ernie. What is Bert, is it lower? I think Bert’s is more nasal. Bert is serious, studious, and tries to make sense of his friend’s actions. Yeah, we don’t… Well, okay, all right. So that last part, yes. And Ernie is what? Ernie is a practical joking, extroverted dude. And he laughs like this, . Yeah, I think we don’t… It’s not a perfect map, but it definitely matches up better both physically and in their characteristics. Yeah. They just need to switch sides. Why are they standing as Ernie and Bert? Ernie’s best companion outside of Bert is Rubber Ducky. Right. And Bert has his pet pigeon Bernice. Oh, I love pigeons. Oh, Bert is the president of the National Association of W Lovers. W Lovers? He loves a good W. W Lovers. That sounds like something I’d be into. It’s those two points on the bottom. Oh! Unfortunately for Bert, his nose has come off of his face on a number of occasions. Maybe there’s like a chin thing there. A chimp thing? Chin. Oh. Bert’s nose has come off? Well, I will say neither of them have a chin, so I have that in common with them. What if Bert had a really big beard? That’d be weird. Hippie Bert. Yeah, so this one’s pretty good. This may be the gold standard for us. You know, I do have a special relationship with pigeons. Actually, my family does. We’ve talked about Shepherd’s relationship with pigeons, but did you know- No. That a white pigeon visited my wife. What do you mean? Well, let me show you. Because she documented this. It is actually quite remarkable. Visited, like in a dream? When you say visited, it’s just like- Well, you’ll see. This white pigeon. She said, “Today a white pigeon came and chilled “by our pool, completely unafraid of me, “like it owned the place. “Gotta be a good omen. “Even if the dogs were pissed, right?” So this thing literally hung out. Are they rare? A white pigeon? I don’t know, but it basically was there the whole time and then it flew away. So I think the pigeon community has… Someone from the pigeon community is watching “Good Mythical Morning.” This is another sign that you are Bert, dude. Huh, it says seeing a white pigeon is a rare event, as only 1% are all white. Wow! I mean, it’s not that rare. That’s special. I mean, sometimes you see 200 pigeons on like one lady in Central Park. So two of them are gonna be white. Yeah, there might be a white one in there. Okay. Bert and Ernie. Okay. Bacon and eggs. See, this is what I meant, you know, it’s not characters. So who would be bacon and who would be eggs? Eggs can go all different types of ways. You go both ways? All the ways. No, I don’t go all the ways. Everybody loves bacon, but bacon causes cancer. It’s like one of the most loved, but one of the worst foods, so who’s that between us? Bad for you, but irresistible. Who’s like, everybody loves them, but they’re actually really, really bad? I don’t know, I’d like to think we’re both good for people. There’s a lot of myths about eggs. You know, people are like, you should just eat the egg white and not the egg yolk, because of cholesterol, but then basically, they’re like, actually no, it’s not really that bad, just eat the whole thing, it’s fine. You can boil them. But then sometimes if eggs come on a little bit too strong, like they are in this picture. I mean, you don’t like eggs like that, right? I don’t. It’s like, ooh, it’s too runny. So people complain about eggs. That’s both of us. People complain about both of us. What about one of us is round and one of us is skinny? I’m rounder. I mean, I’m taller. My face is rounder. You can eat eggs every day, but you don’t wanna eat bacon every day. I think Link’s bacon. Hey, I’ll be bacon. Why? I mean- Because I’m a treat and I’ll kill you. Too much of me will kill ya. You gotta have me in doses. My family’s gotta send me away occasionally. I think Link is bacon, because if you just have bacon, you might think, I wish I had a little eggs. I wish I had a little eggs to balance this meal out, right? What are you saying? I’m just saying. I’d never just have eggs. But everybody loves bacon. They’re better together. Bacon has like societies devoted to it and people get pictures… People wear bacon suits, I mean, being bacon’s great. Oh, I said I’ll take bacon. It’s great, it’s great. I just think that- Nobody’s got an egg suit. I don’t love eating eggs without bacon and I don’t really love eating bacon without eggs, but I will. Hmm. I don’t know, I don’t wanna read into it too much. I’m bacon. Okay, Miss Piggy and Kermit. Well, this is a romantic duo. Well, Miss Piggy is, you know, very dominant and controlling in the relationship. And I play the guitar. So I think I’m Kermit. Hi ho! I think I’m just sort of doing my best. Just trying to make it through the day. Hi ho! Don’t call me ho! Yeah, I mean- I don’t know, I’m not buying this one, because this is a romantic relationship. This is not a friendship duo. But sometimes, they’re just friends. Oh, really? I mean, sometimes they break up. Kermie! I’ll be Miss Piggy. She’s larger than life, she’s vivacious, she’s doesn’t apologize for who she is. Yeah, she’s got some frills going on, on her… Is that a boa? Yep. You could probably wear a boa to the Streamys one year. Give us three to four years. Yeah, give me a few more years. And Rhett will just wear a collar. Yeah, I’ll just… Is that a collar or is that frog skin? Yeah, what is that Well, you could wear a frog skin collar to the Streamys. What is going on with Kermit’s- What’s your necklace, Rhett? It’s frogs. What is happening there? Let me see. I guess it’s like what a jester wears. Yeah, I do think it’s a collar. Gotta have something. He can ride a bike too. It is a collar. It looks really weird when Kermit rides a bike. It looks weird when you ride a bike. Oh, for a brief period of time in the early 1970s, Kermin… Kermin. Kermit sported a double collar. Yeah. Really? So they called it a collar? Yeah. It’s definitely not frog skin. Single collar with 11 points. 11 points? Yeah. Whoa. Okay. All right, Piggy. Ketchup and mustard, we’re back to food. Oh, I am definitely mustard in this situation. I mean, I wear more yellow. Yeah, yellow is more your color. I’m less sweet. You’re less sweet. You can get spicy. Yep. You don’t have to be spicy. And a little goes a long way. It depends on how much you like mustard. Yeah, what about ketchup? Ketchup, it can be sweet. What else about ketchup? You can stick your finger in it. It just likes to get all over things. It likes to slather all over things. Thank you, Stevie. What did you say? I said you can stick your finger in it. You can also do that with mustard, let’s be honest. You’re saying you can stick your finger in me? What does that mean? Well, I mean, that was kind of the joke. Stick your finger in me? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was sort of the joke. Oh. What else about ketchup? Just making a statement about ketchup, and I don’t know that it applies to me. Kids like it. Kids like it. Yeah, Carney made a good point, it’s all tomato, so it a little bit weird that it is Link. It’s all tomato. But no, but I find that if we meet a young… Now, we don’t have many young fans anymore, but if we meet a fan that has a young child with them, a lot of times that child is afraid of me. Let’s just be honest. Right. And kids don’t like mustard. It’s an acquired taste, but once you start liking it, you actually make the switch to just putting it on your hot dogs. Well, again, this is not a competition. I’m just saying. You know, I’m just saying. This is not one or the other, this is both. In fact, they really work great together. Oh yeah, you twizzle them together. When you make an orange sauce together that’s ketchup and mustard together. You talk about tomatoes though and my hatred for them, I’ve been impacted by one thing that I’ve eaten on this show more than anything, I think. I’m obsessed with it, and it’s so strange. I tried to give it to… I had a group of friends hanging out at the house, and I had a pack of this stuff, and I tried to get everybody to eat it. I made everybody eat it, and everybody said it was horrible. How often does that happen when I love something and everybody else says it’s gross? Pretty often. Pretty often. Do you know what this is? Dehydrated tomatoes? Yeah. The tomato jerky? It is that vegan tomato jerky. I am obsessed with that stuff. The teriyaki and cracked pepper dried tomato. I will say, it is really good. Who are you giving it to that doesn’t like it? My dad friends all hated it. Oh, your friends that are dads. My dad friends, they all hated it. What was the setting? ‘Cause I think I know. A jerky party. They call it a circle jerky. Just hanging out by the fire pit. It’s when dads get together around a fire and share jerky. Circle jerky. Yeah, we were around the fire pit in a circle, and I was giving them the jerky. Yeah. I love it. You may have given it to them too hard. It even says umami and I don’t even think I like umami. I don’t like tomatoes. It’s like something about all of that coming together. Well, on set it had to be u-daddy. Right. Yeah, you sold it wrong. You sold it wrong. Yeah, my mouth is watering right now for those tomatoes. So you have these at home stocked now? Yeah. Oh. I don’t really remember it. It fits a slot that nothing else can go in in terms of snacks. It’s so different. Let’s see another duo. Romeo and Juliet. Again, why are you giving us romantic relationships? I don’t know. I mean, it is a duo. It’s a duo that comes to mind. It’s a couple. Well, I mean, just focus on the personality traits. All I remember about this is that they showed this movie at school and there’s boobies. This movie. Mm-hmm. There’s boobies. There’s boobies in it, and I know every time this comes up I talk about it, because I always remember it. I just love the fact that we… Why were her boobies- I’m from the same place as you are, so when we see “Romeo and Juliet,” we’re like that movie. The movie with the boobies. It’s like, you might be a redneck. Here’s your sign. When you hear “Romeo and Juliet” and you think about the movie. Why was she topless? I mean, I can’t remember why. Because it was the ’90s, man. So let’s think about their families. Well, you’ve got the Montagues and you’ve got the Montecristos, I think. I don’t remember the other one. Isn’t it the Capulets? The Capulets, that’s right. I don’t know anything about them. So it says, the extroverted Romeo takes a lead in their romance. Romeo is the pursuer, and Juliet is quieter and more of an introvert. Romeo’s searching for a deeper meaning in his life and he needs flexibility and freedom, and he fights against the box his parents wanna put him in. But he’s looking for meaningful, authentic connections, and he’s very in tune with his feelings. Oh, Carney, you think- I think Link is Romeo, for sure. I think I’m- And Juliet has long hair. That’s true, that’s true, that’s true. And have you seen the rack on this guy? Let’s just do the next one. I pass. I pass. Oh, we’re passing on this? Yeah, yeah, I’m Juliet, he’s Romeo. Oh, okay. Good. Walter White and Jesse Pinkman. Walter White looks like your dad. Well, since Walter White looks so much like my dad, and I have a lot of my dad in me. Does your dad have a goatee now? He has a beard. He has a beard. This is easy. Shaved head. You’re Jesse Pinkman, all day, man. Yeah, he’s enthusiastic, he might fly off the handle, but it’s all the time, and then you’ve got this slow, seething development of like when is the bald guy gonna blow? Yeah, and this is how I’m going to wear my hair and my goatee when I get older. You think you’re gonna go shaved head? Shaved head and goatee and glasses and that’s how I’m going out. That’s gonna be the last 20 years of my life. And you’ve changed a lot. Get ready to deal with it. Like Walter, he changed a lot. He got himself into a predicament. Right, he used to be a science teacher. But yeah, I think just the energies. The energies kind of map a little more, don’t you think? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, this is a good one. This is a good one. I mean, this is the kind of thing that if you were to like survey the Mythical Beasts… Which that would be an interesting game to play, like what percentage of people said- Well, we are surveying the Mythical Beasts, it’s a Mythical survey. Right, right, right, promo time. The Mythical Census. It doesn’t have a question about this on it, but you can write it in if that’s what you wanna do. I don’t think Walter White… Did he ever demonstrate a sense of humor? Oh, yeah. Like, I can’t recall him being happy. Yeah, yeah. He wasn’t particularly happy, but when things were going well, he had a sly sense of humor. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, he had some good lines. Yeah, once he really came into his own. Once he started wearing that fedora. But it was very dry. It was a dry humor. I’m gonna have a fedora. A dry, intimidating humor, scaring children. Right, yeah. Okay, I’m feeling good about that one. Boy, I think about “Breaking Bad,” I’m like, I could watch that again. But then it’s such a commitment. And then I’m like, well, I’ve been told that I need to watch “Better Call Saul,” and that some people say it’s better, but when am I gonna do that? Man, this is a predicament. Remember that middle school musical we made, remember that? So good. So good. Still surfaces from time to time. If you wanna see some kids play Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, just search Breaking Bad Middle School Musical. And all those kids were scared of me. Yeah, they were.
