GMMore 2527: What City Does This Flag Belong To?

Welcome to Good Mythical More. Apparently cities In the U.S. have their own flags. Yeah. I could not have told you that. But you know what? Now that you know, you’re like, well, And some of them. Of course, of course. Of course they do. And we’re gonna match the city to, the flag, or we’re gonna learn some stuff. But first we’re gonna give you a quarterly report on our business. Little Hats for Little Plants. Are you sitting down? We hereby call to order the quarterly report for our business. Little Hats for Little Plants. I keep forgetting the name of it because it was hotly debated. It was gonna be called Little Plants Under Little Hats at first. Right, because, yeah, but then we went with the four. Because it was less, letters on the marquee. Right, that’s right. On the marquee, on the sign. They’re charging by letter these days. So, we’ve, we ran into a supply snafu with our, with our, with our hats, which. Turns out, the little hats are all being taken by, little, little animals these days, because of TikTok, and we didn’t account for this The demand for little hats is huge, and so now we have pivoted to. Jimmy hats for little plants. Right, we are, we are using, it’s a. And they’re just condoms, they’re normal sized condoms. In fact, sometimes magnum size. It’s a recycle, it’s a recycled program. They are used, but the plants don’t know that. And it turns out they look best on cacti. If you can get a condom on a cacti, which actually is what we are, DBA, doing business as, Condom on Cacti. LLC. Which is an LLC, yes. Right. We were advised to do that. Ladies love condoms, is what that stands for. So we expect to go public by the fourth quarter. And. Hang with us. Don’t pull your money out. Yeah. And that’s also our slogan. And we will. Don’t pull out. Don’t pull out and, cause it will break the condom Right. And we will be. It is a cactus. We will be hitting the opening bell. Cause that is still a thing that is done. And we will be using a condom covered cacti, the hardest cacti we can find. So it’s still a good investment. Right. You see why, advertisers throw their money at us? Yeah. Right. Put us in a boardroom. See what we come up with. Okay, we’re bringing this up, huh? Keep pulling. Keep pulling. Keep pulling. But don’t pull it out! Don’t pull it out! Don’t pull it out! Look at that. Cities have flags. Alright, so we have, Seattle, Washington, Salt Lake City, Utah, San Francisco, California, Sioux, Sioux Falls. I’ve been to every single city on this side. Is this where we made the band? Yes. Commercial? – Well. – No. Sioux City. That was Sioux City, Iowa. I’ve been to three out of four of the ones on this side. Washington D.C., Tulsa, Oklahoma, Buffalo, New York. – [Rhett] Have not been to Buffalo. – [Link] Have not been to Tulsa. Not planning on going to Buffalo, sorry. I’m actually planning to go to Buffalo. Really? Yeah, I’m gonna go visit a farm. Tulsa though, a little too dusty for my taste. Okay. Alright, so we’re gonna, let’s just take one and see if we can put it, we’ll put it underneath. Now last time we played a similar game to this, I ran into a little bit of a problem. And, you know, thankfully there is no vanilla, or as I like to say, “vanil-lia”, involved in this particular exercise. He’s talking about Madagascar. Alright, so this is, this is a, what is that brown bird? What kind of bird is that? That is a, falcon? I don’t, I think that’s not, I don’t, I believe that’s a made up bird. I think it’s a. It also says Oro En Paz, En Guerra. So we. Fierro, En Guerra, Oro En Paz. We got some, some. Oro En Paz. Is that Spanish or Latin? Cause it seems Spanish. Fierro, En Guerra. I think this is fire and, what’s paz? Paz means um, the throne. Seated on the throne of fire is a dude named Guerra. Here’s the thing though, Washington D.C. What’s the most patriotic looking thing? – [Link] City of Goodwill. – [Rhett] This has gotta be, this has gotta be Sioux Falls. This has gotta be Sioux Falls. I mean, let’s just go ahead and do that. – [Stevie] That’s a phoenix by the way. A rising phoenix. That is a phoenix? Oh, cause that’s fire. Okay, so Phoenix. Out of the fire comes the phoenix. Phoenix is not up here, Stevie. We’ve been misled once again. Well, hold on. Let’s just stick to our guns. We’re going from Washington, D.C. Let’s stick with the way we’re gonna do it. Okay, so here we have, in this one, we have a scene of a boat arriving. On the seashore. And there’s a, there’s a lighthouse. This could be, maybe, a Seattle. This is a port city. This is a port city. To me, I feel like, I don’t know why there’s no blue on this. It can’t be this, because the, the sun doesn’t ever come up in Washington, D.C. This is somewhere in the Midwest, right? This is a cool flag, but this, this also has like a. Little southwestern. Yeah, it’s southwestern. This is the best flag. Bar none, in my mind, on this board. This one also has kind of a Native American vibe. Is that like, that looks like a dreamcatcher. And then this one has a, has a Native American in it. City of Goodwill. So, of course, all of our land, used to be Yep, this is true, Link. Native American land. Yep, yep, this is true, Link. So, it really could be any city. And it’s, it, I don’t know how I feel. Well. I feel bad about it. Why don’t you, yep. That’s how, I do know how I feel about it. I feel bad about it. Right, but it’s on the flag at this point. Something about my tone is like, trying to find if there’s any comedy here and the answer is no. I don’t believe there is. I don’t believe there is, the only thing we’re laughing at is you, is you trying to navigate the situation the situation. – That’s the comedy. – No comedy at all. You trying to navigate it. Very funny. Just, okay, good. Just to be clear of what we’re laughing at. Buffalo used to roam. Why would D.C. not have blue in it? What a missed opportunity, I mean one of these stars could be blue, one of these stripes can be blue. – [Link] I’m gonna tell you right now, that’s D.C. It has all blue in it. But, it doesn’t have red, and D.C. is not really known as, I mean, it is. There’s no lighthouse in D.C. It is technically. Is there a lighthouse? On the ocean, I guess? But not really, it’s kinda inland, isn’t it? Is it, does the ocean come all the way to D.C.? No. Yes, the Potomac. That’s the river! Right, but. Yes. And is that? But the river hits the sea. Well, yeah, most do. At Washington, D.C. So it’s briny. At a certain juncture. I’m trying not to feel any strong feelings about any of this. Just so you know. Because I’ve insisted that we not start with the flag and then go to the thing. Now we’re kind of stuck. Well, Tulsa. Tulsa, Oklahoma. It’s gotta be this. Actually, it could be this, too. What is this? Is this a comet? City of Goodwill. I believe. I’m not 100 percent sure. It might, maybe it’s, maybe it’s Oklahoma City. The the National Native American Museum is in Oklahoma. And, when I did my road trip with Locke, in 2022 or, early 2023, we drove through and we were excited about going, but it wasn’t open yet. Oh, well, then this is what you’re saying. No, but this is Sioux Falls. So, literally, when the name of your city is named after a tribe, it feels like a representative of said tribe might be in here. This is water. This is water going, this is an overview of water going over. Falls. Alright, so put that there. This feels like it needs, Tulsa feels like it’s more southwest. – [Stevie] Maybe, maybe, sorry, just repeat what you said about Sioux Falls, falls, and water, and maybe choose another. Oh, falls. There’s falls. ((Laughing)) Stevie, you’re onto something. You might have access to the answer. Is this falls, or is it just? It’s falls, dude. It is falls, isn’t it? It’s falls. There it is. So, maybe that becomes Tulsa. Tulsa has the Native American Museum. And now we’re still in the west. – [Stevie] Okay, but if what you said about that one, if what you said about the one you thought was Sioux Falls was that there’s water there, then does that make sense? That that’s Tulsa’s? No, this is Tulsa because see that star? That’s Texas. ((Laughing)) Which is close to Oklahoma. ((Laughing)) Are you? Are you effing with us? ((Laughing)) – [Stevie] No, I don’t think I need to add that energy to what’s already going on. Well, Salt Lake City is in the Midwest as well. Close to Phoenix. What? No. That doesn’t make sense. Salt Lake City is, is this one. It’s, it’s, it’s. What is the most Mormon flag up here? This one. The whole bottom part is, holy underwear. Oh, I thought he was going to say white. ((Laughing)) Either one of those jokes would have worked. But they didn’t work together, did they? They didn’t, because we said them at exactly the same time. But you’re right. Salt Lake City, Utah is. But hold on, but this is a dogwood flower, is it not? It does look like it. Which is the state tree of North Carolina. But you know, they said that the dogwood bloom represents, the crucifixion of Jesus. – [Stevie] It’s not a dogwood. But that’s not a dogwood. ((Laughing)) I think, I think this is San Francisco because this kind of looks like. – [Stevie] Sego lily. Sego lily? Seattle’s a port city. Yep, and then Buffalo. Oh, well. Buffalo is an animal that. No, but I believe that Buffalo may be, this is conjecture, Buffalo may be, it might be what Native Americans called Buffalo and that’s where we get the word from buffalo, which may, so there could be some connection there to the City of Goodwill. And when you live in a place that is so miserable, like Buffalo, New York, you gotta have goodwill just to keep going. I don’t know why, but. And we’re just talking about the weather. What? Is it about the weather? I’m just talking about the weather. It’s cold there? It’s very cold. Okay, so we are locked in, Stevie. How many, how many do we have right? – [Stevie] You’re so close. Okay, let’s be strategic about this, Link. This, this is, I don’t know about this. This is what’s throwing me off. There is a, there is an old sailing vessel. An old ship. But then there’s a lighthouse. And I guess, so, I never thought of those as contemporary, but I guess they were. Because. What do you mean? I’m not gonna keep, I’m not gonna keep saying what I think out loud. Well, I know, we all wanna know. So close. I’m realizing that it doesn’t make sense, because before radar. You needed the lighthouse. You needed the lighthouse. But that ship’s not as old as that. When the first explorers came to America, there were no lighthouses. That’s true, Link. That’s true. Right? This is my favorite flag. This is my second favorite flag. Maybe this is not the ocean. Maybe it’s the great Salt Lake. No, that’s not gonna work. Bad idea. So we, how many, you didn’t tell us how many we have, right? So close, that means we’ve got two mixed up. There’s two mixed up? Well, as we consider, our fate. We want to remind you about the Pin of the Month. It’s going to be available on Monday for 24 hours. Mythical.com Hey Siri, set a reminder for Monday for me to get the Pin of the Month. Covering bases. Right. – [Siri] Okay. I have get the Pin of the Month for Monday. It worked for somebody. It worked for you. It worked for me. ((Laughing)) I don’t know what to change. Well. What, you said this is a lily? This is? – [Stevie] Yeah This feels very Salt Lake City. We know we’re right here. This has to be right and then. I feel pretty strongly about Seattle being this one. Doesn’t this feel, it almost feels a little bit like, it doesn’t feel American enough. There’s no blue. I’m disturbed by it. Do you think maybe the Phoenix is Washington? No, but we’re not rising from the ashes in D.C. That’s not how they would see themselves, right? I think this is right. That’s gotta be right, right? This feels, San Francisco being the Phoenix feels pretty good, cause what else would San Francisco be? San Francisco, San Francisco could be a port city. – [Stevie] There’s an element on one of these flags that you have not. Acknowledged? – [Stevie] Yeah. Lightning. Yep, lightning strikes. 12 times. What, else could it, is it on this one? Stars and lightning. How many stars? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13. The 13 colonies. Yep, that’s Washington D.C. 13 colonies. Well, the 13, what is, what else is 13? What, where’s there 13 things? There’s no other 13. It’s a spooky number. It’s weird to me that D.C. would have a ship landing as what it is like, D.C. is like, it’s the government. You know what I’m saying? It’s not, it’s not the place that somebody landed. It’s the government. But I think this is what Stevie wanted us to find. 13 stars. – [Stevie] No, no, the thing that you said before that. Lightning. – [Stevie] Yeah. Although I don’t fully know how that’s going to help you. Other than the fact that I’m pointing out that flag in particular. Well, there’s not a lot of lightning in San Francisco. There’s lightning on the east, there’s more lightning on the east coast. Tell us two that we’ve gotten correct. – [Stevie] You have San Francisco and Washington D.C. correct. Yes, okay. Okay. Now we’re down here. We know this is correct. Alright, this is probably wrong. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa. We can’t put Salt Lake City here, though. This could be Salt Lake City, Utah. Think about Utah. Very southwest. This doesn’t feel Utah? This feels pretty Utah. Can I say it again? But this becomes Tulsa? That doesn’t seem right. I think this is the problem. Buffalo, New York. There’s no buffalo on here. I think we switch these two. Nope. I feel so strongly about this being Tulsa. But, like I said, the museum is here. Yeah, the museum is there. Like I said, man. And we’ve done it. – [Stevie] Nope. Okay, go back, go back, go back. – [Stevie] But also, why would I say to point out the lightning, and then? Yep, right. We forgot, okay? We have short memories. This is wrong. This is wrong. We know that. Seattle, Washington, so. Buffalo got an ocean? No, yeah, no. No. It’s landlocked. Actually, I think it has to. I think it has to. Seattle, Washington. Can I look up Buffalo on a map? This is water. Is that a violation? This is water. I’m not gonna look up Buffalo flag, I’m not that kind of guy. This is water in a storm. We’ve done it. – [Stevie] You’ve done it. I didn’t know, I didn’t want to spoil Rhett’s, looking up of Buffalo. We’ve done it. – [Stevie] That was also, that was confusing, but it, It’s, on a lake. It’s on a lake? – [Stevie] Yeah. Y’all got a lake? Y’all got a lake and gotta use a lighthouse? A lake with a lighthouse? Well, it is a big lake. It’s Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. Maybe it’s a nice spot. They got a lake on both sides. That’s a big freaking. It’s pretty near Niagara Falls, too. – [Stevie] That’s what makes it so cold. That’s a pirate ship. I take it, well, you’re also, your proximity to Rochester is really the reason I don’t like you. ((Laughing)) You know, if you’re within a 50 mile radius of that place, I gotta have ill will towards you. Stevie, what flag are you aesthetically most drawn to? Rhett, same question to you. – [Stevie] I gotta, I gotta give it up to Sioux Falls meets Tulsa. Those are. These two are great. – [Stevie] Those are very cool designs. This is what I call modern flag design and it may not be true, but it’s what it feels like. Like the Colorado flag is a beautiful flag, simplistic design. It’s not trying to like tell a big story like Buffalo. – [Stevie] Oh, the lightning is because Buffalo wants to celebrate how it was one of the first cities to get electric power throughout the city. That’s what that’s celebrating. Big whoop, we all got it now. Big whoop. ((Laughing)) Oh, and then the San Francisco flag, it actually says San Francisco under there. They’ve taken that off. Well that would have been helpful. ((Laughing)) It would have been helpful. So, what do those things mean? And then I think this one said Seattle right there, maybe. – [Rhett] Oh, I get it. San Francisco. – [Stevie] Golden peace, iron and war It makes sense for it to be Spanish. San Francisco is Spanish. Saint Francis, so it makes sense for the flag to have some Spanish things. Okay. There you go. Well, look at that. I think we’re flirting a little too much with learning. Watch out. – [Rhett] New year, new pins. Get ready, Mythical Beasts. Our January Pin of the Month will be available this Monday for just 24 hours at Mythical.com
