Welcome to Good Mythical More. Um, I’ll remember, hold on. I’m gonna remember. Oh, Pikmin. I have no clue what Pikmin are, is. Me neither. And we’re gonna learn about it. And boy, you’re gonna laugh. You’re not gonna believe it. Cause they’re so funny. They’re so, it’s. The Pikmin, if anything, they’re funny. And the way we react to learning about it, you know it’s gonna be so funny. But first, let’s donate one thousand dollars to Stand Up To Cancer to aid in their mission to raise funds to accelerate the pace of groundbreaking research that can get new therapies to patients quickly and save lives now. And, you can join us in giving at StandUpToCancer.org/rhettandlink We got our own URL. We got our own URL. Go up there and give with us. Stand Up To Cancer. Okay. I, too, don’t know about Pikmin, but we have a little explainer video, I’m told. Oh, cool. Let’s start with what we do know about Pikmin. Oh. Pikmin work together. Yes. Like ants or termites. Oh, I’ve played this video game. I’ve played this once. They divide up their labor to benefit the whole. On Xbox. While one group of Pikmin is defending from a predator, another might be collecting resources. Or even building a simple structure. We also know that Pikmin are unusually strong. So they work in teams. It’s like ants. I remember, I remember this. I don’t know what it was. I don’t know what gaming system it was, but one Christmas, the only time I ever played video games as an adult was when I would give my children a gaming system and then like play it with them, you know, like on Christmas. And then I would never do it again. Right. Never play with them again. I don’t play with my kids except on holidays. Holidays. Holidays. Um. And only Christian holidays. Yeah. Pikmin. Pikmin, huh? So they have picks. Um, they are… They have axes. Video game characters, little helpers, beautiful singers, and a lifestyle is what it says. Yeah, they have a lifestyle. And there’s different types that have different unique abilities and strengths. So the game we’re going to play is I’m going to show you a type of Pikmin. And then you’re gonna tell me what their special abilities are. Before you do that very exciting thing. Okay. Um. Do you want me to talk like the guy in the video from now on? Please, yes. Go all the way down. Can you, um, are they, have they made a comeback? Because I feel like this is years ago in which I was introduced to them. They’ve made a comeback? We’ve always been popular. Don’t call it a comeback. Okay. Give us, give us our, uh, give us our assignment. Okay, here’s the first one. Okay. Alright, this is a radish head. He is good at — He makes things grow. Um, he makes things spicy. He can make a vine. This gives you the ability to stick a vine out with his things. He is asexual. And that’s fine. It’s fine. Ain’t nothing wrong with that. You’re closer on the spiky front than anything else. Okay. Are you done or do you want to go? He has an unpredictable mean streak. Okay, the color of him should give you a hint. He makes you angry. If you eat this, it makes you angry I don’t think you eat them. They have picks and they work in groups. They’re ants. You throw him into a group of bad guys. No, a group of these guys. And he overwhelms them with fumes. I think that they burst into flames. There we go. Uh, this is Red Pikmin. Resistant to fire. If you need them to do a task that involves fire or an enemy that can breathe fire. This is who you send. Okay. Good, good, good. So it says Nintendo, so maybe this is when I gave them the Wii. Yep, this is when you gave them the Wii. Yeah, yeah. – Okay, what about – And I did give it to them, they didn’t pay for it. I mean, was it new or used? Cause I got mine used. You get your kids a used Wii? I gave my kids a used Wii for Christmas one year. It works exactly the same, it just costs less. – Why would I buy a brand new Wii when — – You get it — You get it when all the excitement is happening about the new system, it makes you a cool dad. Oh, no, I said you gotta wait until somebody puts it on ebay. That’s what I said. Yep. Yep. Yep. – Yep. The blue one… – I’m glad i’m not your son. The daisy here… She’s sad. She’s scared. She’s disappointed. Well… Her husband left her. Okay, the red one has to do with fire. Water. Okay. Whatever. Water. I didn’t want it to be so obvious. It’s boring. This is a, this is, um, this is if you need water. If you need to drown your enemies. Right. Or if you’re thirsty, they can drink themselves. How sadistic does it get? Yeah. So this one. I think you can drink your own urine three times over. The blue Pikmin can swim, but every other Pikmin cannot swim. But they can be made into rafts that other ones can crawl across. Like ants. No, they cannot. Silly. Do you know that so quickly? Cause Brittany is mouthing things to me across the way. You like this game, Brittany? Yeah, I love it. Did you ever beat it? Yeah. Really? Yeah. That’s the thing that can be done, huh? The things that you’re into on your personal time, how much time do they take? Cause it, you have some time consuming hobbies, like collecting those trinkets. Playing this. Well, that’s two things. Right. That’s two things. You got some time consuming hobbies. Riding your little bike on the mountains. That takes some time. Yeah, it does. Yeah, it does. I’ve earned it. Okay, this one’s harder. I mean, than the first two. Oh, we got this yellow one with ears. This is a urine. Urine. Urine stain. You lay them down and it’s like, did the dog have an accident? They have three different things that they can do. They can slow somebody down. They can sting you. They can do your taxes. And they, they will, they’ll wash your windshield at an intersection but it will be worse when they’re done. Than when they started. All very close. Uh, they are resistant to electricity, they can be thrown super high in the air, and they are capable of digging. Why would you throw them in the air? To get to a platform. That they could then dig? Right, Brittany? Yup. Yeah, yeah, there’s tall platforms in games. Listen, don’t cut me out of this process just cause you can see Britney. I told you, Britney was telling me the answers and then I’m telling them to you. They get thrown on platforms? Don’t cut me out of this process. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Let’s see another one, Stevie. Ooh, this one’s, this one looks like a piece of Coal? Um Is that coal or is this benzonite? So this one looks like stop motion animation, is this real? Am I looking at a real photo? I don’t think I am. This guy is… He makes gravel roads. This one is for the other characters in the game that have, uh, Pica, which is an irresistible urge to eat minerals. You’re obsessed with that. You’re obsessed with it. Why am I obsessed with it? Because every now and again, you bring it up. That is the definition of being obsessed with something. Every now and again, you bring it up. Every few years, you talk about Pica. You’re obsessed with it. Well, I am interested in it. I have thought about what it would be like to have it. Clay eaters? It’s fine. It’s fine. I love rocks. What is more fun than playing a video game? Just speculating about what the characters do. I have thought about — sometimes I have a smooth rock in my hand and I think about how, oh, that’s like almost like a pill. I could swallow it. I have thought that. Like a smooth rock. That’s evolution telling you to die. No, no, no. I think it’s evolution telling me that – like a little birdie, I need rocks in my stomach to help digest the things, like donuts and pizza and things that I eat. Maybe my digestion would be better if I ate rocks and they squirmed around in there and digested the things that I eat. I bet you. Maybe I’ll look into it. I bet you’ll look into it. Maybe I’m obsessed with Pica. Are we close? Yeah, it said it’s called, uh, Rock Pikmin. And they can break open heavy duty objects by smashing their bodies into them. And they’re also stronger at defeating enemies than the other Pikmin. How do you get them, Stevie? How do you get these added to your group? Well, I’ll tell you. You throw them. Grow them. Sounds like she might be reading lips. Throw them? Grow them. Blow them? What? Yep. That’s all. You grow them with what? Seeds? Yeah, you plant them in the ground and then you pluck them. Oh, that sounds fun. Yeah, what about this one? What about this one? Oh, there he is. Okay. Oh, we’re back to CGI. It’s an insect. So this is a floating… So the, the eyeballs on this thing are just removed contact lenses. I see these on like the, the top of the bedside table all the time. Like slightly — Dried up. Oh, your wife. Your wife says that? And there’s a, there’s like, sometimes there’s a pile of ’em. It’s like fish scales on the side of her. Bedside table. You know, most people who have, who wear contacts, have contacts behind their eyes and they don’t know it. I don’t want to talk about it. Have contacts what? Behind their eyes. I don’t believe that. I saw a TikTok, there was a lady with like 40 TikToks behind her eyeball. So I bet you’re 40 TikToks? He’s crazy, he’s off the deep end. He’s so crazy. Yeah, it was crazy. It was a little iPhone. that was logged into an account that had 40 tic tacs. Yeah, your wife probably has, statistically speaking, she probably has a Tik — she probably has a contact lens behind her eye. Con-Tiktok She probably has one, I’m just saying. No, they’re all on her bedside table, trust me. She gets them out. This one can fly to a platform. Yes! Can fly across bodies of water. Any obstacle, really, that needs flight. Yep. But it’s just called, uh, Pink Pikmin. So, Stevie, if you get one of these from your group across a thing, what happens to the rest of the losers who can’t get across? Well, you send this one ahead. As a scout. As a scout. And, they fly and then they come back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, well, all right. Help you get in the spirit — What? Is that a question? Help you get in the spirit. Ha. This is the most half hearted, uh, segue. I don’t understand what you mean. Into a promotional. I meant to say, to help you get into the Halloween spirit, but I didn’t, I didn’t say to.

I get it. Have you seen the clip — I thought of a lot of funny things to say, didn’t say any. Have you seen the clip of Pinkman, otherwise known as Aaron Paul, on The Price is Right, before he got famous? Vaguely. I think so. It’s really old, right? And what? And he’s really excited. Yes. Really excited. And he’s like, so normal. But also, much more like Jesse Pinkman than Aaron Paul in that clip. Really? Can we watch it? No, probably not. We can watch it with the sound off. Okay. We can watch it. Well, do you want to look at the next Pikmin before we pull him out? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are you trying to sit here? If it’s as fun as that, I don’t know. Purple guy. No mouth. This is, it’s got antenna, antennae. I think this one’s bacterial. I think this one will give you an infection. This one, um, I don’t know, I don’t — I feel like I’d know more about the game at this point to be able to infer what this guy does, but — I think this is just the grape flavor Pikmin. Give us a hint. Uh, they, are most similar to the Rock Pikmin, from what I can see. Alright. Big. They make soil. They break things. Alright, here we go. Breaking Bad Aaron Paul on The Price is Right, as a contestant. – Eleven years ago. – That’s eleven years ago. There he is. We’re watching it. We need a little sound. Just a little sound. He’s with a group of his buddies. He is so freaking excited. He like slid down the whole thing. Look, look how excited he is. Oh my gosh, look at him. He’s so excited. He’s loving Bob. He’s loving life. Wish I could hear it. Yeah. It’s so good. And then, what? How long is this? Bob Barker’s really getting a kick out of Aaron Paul. It’s only a minute, 28 seconds. He’s edited, this is good, we’re getting there. So he wins, he bid 1, 200. Look at him, he has a CBS logo on the back of his shirt that he added himself. There’s his boys that he left behind when he got famous. Look at him, he’s freaking out, he’s so excited. And then he makes it. He actually falls, I’ve seen a clip, he falls down there when he’s meeting Bob for the first time. Oh yeah? But they, oh, and he’s against a military lady. But, uh. An officer. And, uh, she went over and he bid 26, 500. Oh, he also went over. – He also went over on his sports car. – So what happens then? He’s totally — What happens when you both go over? Upset. Is it who goes over by last? Or they both lose? You both lose. You both lose? You both lose. That rarely happens, Bob’s saying right now. And he’s like, hey, have your, have your pet spayed or neutered. Oh, that’s it. And that was it. Both people lost. The most anti climactic ending to Price is Right. Oh, and then seven years ago, he did a Price is Right redemption tour on the Late Show with James Corden. We don’t want to watch that. We don’t want to watch that. Purple Pikmin. are stronger than all the other Pikmin. They can pick up the heaviest objects. They’re like Toad and Super Mario 2. One of them can carry an object that would normally require 10 Pikmin, but their strength comes at a cost because they are the slowest of all the Pikmin. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. You can’t have it all. Called the old trade off. Strength and speed. Can’t have them both. Let’s, uh, there’s also white Pikmin That are poisonous. The glow Pikmin that are only active at night because they glow. What about the interesting Pikmin? Tell me about that one. The ice Pikmin, um, they can turn water into ice. Oh, that’s cool. Yeah, soak in my fridge. I don’t need your little game. I don’t need your little game. Now that you know about the Pikmin, the question that’s written for me to ask is: Which Pikmin are you bringing to fight the Emperor Bull Blacks? At Bird, B E R D, Bird your boy, Y A B O I, Which Pikmin are you bringing to fight the Emperor Bull Blacks? Why is Stephen A. Smith doing this? Let me see. It definitely ain’t gonna be this one. That’s a damn flower. It ain’t gonna be that. I’m not putting them in a fight. Okay? Don’t be that way. We all got something on them. I’m trying to look at who looks the most menacing. I’m gonna go with this one right here. Yes. What’s his name again? I forgot his name. That’s what I was gonna say, Steve A. It’ll come to me. That’s a mistake. This one right here. No, you need to go with the poison. If I’m gonna get in a fight. If I know your skill that’s different, but if I don’t know I’m going with the poison with the one with the one he didn’t choose. …figuratively speaking more mass appeal and that would be this one right here. I’ll go with a radish. – That’s it? – The red one Was he wrong? I’m going I’m going for the white one. There’s no right answer. Yes, there is. Brittany, right? No, she just told me that that’s why I said it. You’ve been cut out! Good Mythical Evening is almost here! Join us this Friday for the night you’ve been waiting for!
