Welcome to “Good Mythical More.” We are gonna play Taboo with sodas, meaning we’re gonna see if we can get the other person to guess the soda, but you can’t give the clues that are written on the show card. Yeah! It’s gonna be fun, man! ‘Kay. But first, let’s check our voicemail. Hi, you probably don’t remember us, but we had you sign a bottle of ranch dressing in St. Louis, just wanted to say we’re watching the name brand episode right now. Love it. Here’s to 40 more, bye. Yep. Signed the ranch bottle. I remember that. I wonder if they kept it. You think they went home and just poured it out on some salad? Yeah. And threw the bottle away? If they forgot, yeah. Well, that’d be sad. If they forgot we signed it. Now with Taboo, you typically have another person on the other team looking over your shoulder to make sure you don’t say the words and you go ent, ent, ent. We don’t need that. We don’t need that. Stevie, do you have a copy of these? Mm-hmm. Since I know you like to make sure we’re not cheating. You do? Mm-hmm. You gonna unk us? What? Can you unk us? Unk you? Unk us. Ant! Okay. We should go to a Lakers game like this. We should go to a Lakers game, period. I’m not even a Lakers fan, but we should go. Yeah, look at us. We should go. Lakers fans all of a sudden. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. All right, I’ll go… Well, who goes first? Rhett, you go first. So face away. Okay, I’m just gonna close my eyes, ’cause I know you’re gonna show- His eyes are closed. You’re gonna look at the soda. And I am going to show everyone at home what I am dealing with here. This is what I’m going to be trying to get Link to guess. And I can not say- Ooh, that’s good. Is that my stack over here? I can not say these words. Can I open? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m opening. Oh, okay. It’s a bottle. Go! Atlanta. Coke. Dang, Rhett, look at that! What are the words that you couldn’t say? You couldn’t say Coke, red, classic, original, Pepsi, or America. Atlanta! I knew my friend would get it. Wow, don’t toot your own horn. I knew my friend would get it. I’m tooting your horn. Oh, that’s really on you, you did good. All right, all right so now… That’s good, you get to keep that. All right, now close your eyes. Closed. Oh. The soda that Link is trying to get Rhett to guess is- And we’re trying to do it in as few words as possible. That’s what I think, okay? All right, open your eyes. Instead of like a time limit. Okay. Oh, gosh, that’s not gonna work. Oh, gosh. And I can only say one word? Well, I don’t know, I thought that was gonna be fun, but I had Coke and Atlanta. Taboo is just one word. No, it’s not. Taboo is like, you have a time, and you’re trying to get as many words, but you can’t say, but we’re not doing that. Yeah. We’re doing our own version. So you want me to only use one word. One word, and we’re gonna get it. Okay. One word and then I’ll add another word, and then I’ll add another word. That’s what you’ve done. Correct. Okay. And the more words it takes us, the stupider we are. My first word is- Mm-hmm. Bath! Bath. Bath! Bath. Bath. Bath? Bath! Are they all drinks? They’re all sodas, Rhett. They’re all sodas. Bath! What’d you do after you said bath? Bath! Yeah, I think that you’re trying to get me to think of a bubble bath. Make a guess. ‘Cause you’re saying bath and then you’re looking around at bubbles. Nope. Bath! Are you in a bathhouse and you’re seeing naked individuals? Bath. You ready? Bath! Oh, you thought it was gonna be a shower, but you were surprised that it was a bath. It’s a soda. Bath. Bath! Honestly, I feel like I’m gonna need another- Well, guess. Sunkist, I don’t have a guess. Okay. Discovery. Discovery and bath. Is this now becoming obvious to other people? Well, they all saw the soda, I will tell you that. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Discovery. Discovery! Discovery, bath, bath discovery. What are you coming up from? Bath discovery. Oh, Sprite? Look what I found. Oh, okay. I couldn’t say, look what I found. Oh, okay. And I couldn’t say lemon-lime, and I couldn’t say 7-UP, and I almost said Spot, but then that would’ve made you guess 7-UP. All right. That’s pretty good though. Okay, okay. That was my “Password” technique. Okay, okay. I watch the show “Password” occasionally. Okay, don’t look. I feel like I could be good at it, if they want me on that show. How spec… No. Can I open? Yeah. Okay. Okay. Medical. Medical, medical, medical, medical, medical. Doctor. I’m gonna go with Diet Dr. Pepper Caffeine Free. Okay, give me another clue. So close. No hints, please. Sugar! Chicken? Sugar! You can’t use your hands, by the way, that’s illegal. Sugar! Okay. Dr. Pepper Zero. Whoa, two! Twofer. That exists, huh? There it is. In fact, it’s cold. You know what, you deserve it. I deserve it. You deserve it. Close your eyes. It is also number one on Sporked’s list of best diet sodas. It is. It is the best. If you want soda news and soda rankings, I’m telling ya- Tell them! There’s no better place than Sporked.com. It has so much soda stuff. Listen, I feel like when we started Sporked, people were like trying to be critical of it. But this is the best contribution to society that I think we’ve made is Sporked, you know? That’s how it works, Link. And I feel like everybody’s gotten on board now. Any time you do something new, people are critical of it. And I love the people… I’m getting choked up. I love the people over there at Sporked. And I love what they do for you. Hey, and let me just tell you- They’re gonna tell you to buy stuff, and you’re gonna be happy that you bought it. Hey, listen, if you’re thinking about doing something- I’m closing my eyes. No, you close. If you’re thinking… I’m closing my eyes. You close your eyes. I’m talking to you though. If you’re thinking of doing something new- Don’t open them. If you’re thinking of trying something new, I just want you to know that if you do something new, if you do something different, you will be criticized for it. It will be criticized. It will be picked apart. That’s part of the process. Okay. Anticipate it, invite it, let it be a part of the process. Let it make the thing better, but don’t think people are gonna just like it because you came up with it. Hold on, hold on, hold on, keep your eyes closed. Unless it’s Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar. And in that case, they’re gonna love it right from the beginning. Okay. All right. I can drink with my eyes closed. Mm-hmm. Can I open? Yes. I had Diet Dr. Pepper Caffeine Free at my house, at a little gathering this past weekend, and everyone drank it, except somebody, but I gotta tell you- I didn’t drink it. I was at a table and there was like seven of them. Everybody was happy. And they were like, “I can’t believe this exists.” I was like, “Special order, you gotta special order it, “you can’t get it at the grocery store.” Okay. Link, I saw what you were doing, it is the same thing, it was just rebranded, so either one of those works. Okay, great, thank you. What am I gonna do? Okay, I know where I wanna go with this one. Stop that! I’m thinking for you. I was just doing some “Jeopardy.” I’m thinking for you. “Jeopardy” spoons. “Jeopardy” spoons? You ever see Trebek playing spoons? In the mountains. What am I gonna do here? Okay, I gotta get it down to one word. That’s two words. What time is it? I’m trying to come up with one word. Now what time is it? All right, got it. Okay. We got this. Galleria! Galleria! Okay, so you’re scared. Galleria! I can’t use my hands. I can’t use my hands. Is this the Sherman Oaks Galleria or the Glendale Galleria? Galleria! But you don’t seem happy about it, like somebody accused you of like… Somebody was like, “Hold on, where have you been?” And you were like, “Galleria!” You’re overthinking it, maybe. Galleria. A soda at the galleria. Galleria! I can’t use my hands. What would you be doing with your hands if you could use them? Galleria! What would I be doing with my hands? Galleria! Blocking something. All right, so what’s your guess? Come on. You’re at the galleria, this might get splashed on you. Just give a guess. Mountain Dew. My mind went to the same place yours did, Link, but my word was different. I’m trying to think of another word. Does it rhyme with diarrhea? Uh, uh. What time is it? Sherman! Sherman! Oaks. Oaks. Oaks. Galleria! Come on, man. Sherman Oaks Galleria. What’s your guess? Is there a store of this type at the Sherman Oaks Galleria? Is there a store there that has this drink? Stevie, if you were playing, would you have gotten it? Well, I’ll give you my word. Okay, Stevie’s gonna give you her word next. Give him the word, he’s stumped. He shouldn’t be, but he is. Building. Oh, Sunkist. Sugar! Oh, Diet Sunkist. That’s it. And they just rebranded it to Zero Sugar Sunkist, which apparently is really good. And also tied for number one on the Sporked’s diet soda list. I’ll be the judge of that by going to Sporked and seeing. Very good drink. Diet Sunkist is a very, very good drink. I don’t know why I don’t have it. Is Sunkist caffeine free? I don’t think it is. So good. So basically, we’re developing our own language. When we go like this, that means zero sugar. ‘Cause that’s what you did. You were combining, you were trying to get it all in one. That’s right. All right, your turn. I’ma close my eyes. That was hard to anticipate. It was hard to anticipate, but… This is good. This is good. Galleria! Gonorrhea! We should explain. When you’re driving down the 101, and you’re passing Sherman Oaks, there is a building beside the galleria that is the corporate offices of Sunkist, or at least they were at one point, and they probably still are, so there’s this big sign that says Sunkist on the side of the building beside the Sherman Oaks Galleria, and it’s so special to us. Can I open? Yeah. Okay. I mean, almost too easy. Okay. Yeah, we’ll have a quick one. Carolinas. Plural Carolinas? Carolinas. Okay. Is this a Sporked pick too, because I don’t think they picked Pepsi. Pepsi. Whoo, whoo, whoo! Pride of the Carolinas. Pride of the Carolinas right there. That wasn’t one of the things? Nope, North Carolina was not one of the banned words. All right, closing my eyes. Bring one in. We’re getting better at this. Beverage Taboo. Link. What? Link, it’s your turn. Oh! Sorry. All right. Okay, don’t open. Now you can open. All right. All right, one. Okay. I can not say these words. I know we’ll get this one. You don’t often have Coke and Pepsi right next to each other. Here we go, you ready? You ready? Yep. You ready? Appalachian. Mountain Dew. Pretty good, huh? Yeah. Pretty good. Once I opened my eyes. All right, now I’ma close my eyes. I just wanna do a side by side of Coke and Pepsi. ‘Cause you don’t get to do that. Mountain Dew is slang for white lightning, which is slang for illegal… What’s that stuff called? Moonshine. Moonshine. During the prohibition era, they would have a clandestine still in the mountains of Appalachia. Keep your eyes closed. Just think about it, there were sheriffs and agents going into the Appalachian wilderness to bust and destroy moonshine stills. Something that now is just on every corner that there isn’t a Starbucks. There’s a corner store selling all types of alcoholic beverages. Man, what a cultural experiment gone sideways. Okay, Link. This ain’t gonna be easy, but I think you can do it. Delta. How did you say that again? Delta. Delta. Delta. This is the place where a river starts to spread as it gets closer to the ocean. Yeah. This is an airline. And it’s the only place that I will drink tomato juice. V8. V8. Bloody Mary mix. Wrong. Wrong. Okay. Delta. So stick with that. Stick with Delta. Delta. Strong, you’re in the right place. Okay. Wrong drink. Now secondary clue, because I want you to get the brand as well. Well, that’s a hint. Mountie. Mountie. Mountie. You can’t say Canadian. Well, I don’t know what… I was gonna guess Clearly Canadian, which would be cool. Delta? But Delta. Delta, Mountie. So what’s the Canadian airline. Air Canada. Mountie. I know I’m getting Canadian from that. What is the Canadian drink? No. You were right to begin with when you did the first exercise, you just guessed the wrong thing. So a river gets wider? No! Delta Airlines, something that I drink on- It doesn’t have to be something you drink. Something anyone drinks when they’re flying to Canada. Is this… You said Mountie, what’s Canada and Delta and soda? Canada and Delta. You talked about- Maple syrup in an airplane bottle. Okay. Boy. Delta, Mountie. You were completely on the right track. You were like- Airline, Canada. And then you said tomato juice, which there’s a more readily common airplane drink for most people. What is a more common airplane drink? It’s like the quintessential thing that you drink on a plane. What? What do you drink on a plane? Can I try? Yeah. Nausea. Ginger ale? Why do you look confused? But what does that have to do with Canada? The brand, Canada Dry! Oh my gosh! I’m so- You don’t associate airlines with ginger ale? It’s the only place I ever see anyone drink ginger ale. For like mixed drinks. That’s kind of strange to me, really. Well, that’s why airplane is on the list of words you can’t say. Okay, fine. That’s why I said Delta. All right, he’s mad.
