Welcome to Good Mythical More. How much do we know about how human bodies work? I mean, we have a couple, but we don’t have everything that all human bodies have or different ones have, so, uh. This is true. Let’s see how much we know. But first, let’s see if we can guess the meaning of this word. Smellfungus. That’s one word? Smellfungus. Literally the word smell and the word fungus together into one word with no spaces. Smellfungus. But there’s one less L. Smelfungus. No, there’s not. There’s two Ls. Oh yeah, there is smellfungus, but it could, you could be smelfungus. Smellfungus. I refuse to believe that this is a word. Smellfungus. I, I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say it’s what a fungus, it’s a type of fungus that smells good. I think this is the, the general odor of a eighth grade boy’s locker room. , what is it? A habitual fault finder or complainer. This is a person. who finds fault or complain. You’re a smell, don’t be such a smellfungus. A smellfungus. Yeah, just cause there is fungus doesn’t mean you have to smell it or point out that you’re smelling it. I’ve been guilty of this. I’ve been a smell fungus. And now that, now that that’s the word for it, I mean, you do not want to be called that. That’s a very effective label. Don’t be a smell fungus. Yeah. Well, is that a good thing? Put it on a t shirt. I’m really. I’m rooting for you for the questions I’m about to ask you. I’m rooting for your gynecologist. Tell us more. Okay. Um, you know, I don’t spread them and leave. Is that what you said? Well, you know, in the moment, it was like a comedic reference that in this moment, bringing back and then, you know, going through. I just don’t, I don’t know. It had its moment. Spread them and leave had its moment and we should have left it. That’s fair. Um, although I will say the, the clip, uh, from the last, uh, cutting in half episode of the alien and you scooting the alien down the table. I can’t believe I didn’t say something in that moment of, uh, how close that is to an actual experience. Yeah. Missed opportunity. All right. Thank you for rooting for us. Yeah. So these questions are, uh, about, uh, yeah, about some women’s bodies and, uh, not your bodies. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, there are questions that are not about your body. So I’m, I’m rooting for you. I’m, I’m hoping, uh, given your, your, your wives, um, our experience, et cetera, you might, with them, you might know some of these, uh, shout out to Roe vs bros on TikTok. Who, uh, who does this regularly. Your first question, and please. I mean, I, I don’t wanna put a lot of pressure on you. I will be thinking differently of you. Depending on how you answer these questions. Well, how do we make sure that we don’t, that we, uh, you’re going to count down? What’s happening here? Oh, for this one, I’m going to count down for this one. I will. Okay. Can you pee with a tampon in? Three, two, one. Yes. Oh Okay. Be clear, the question wasn’t can you pee with a tampon in. We’re talking. But that’s also true. Yes, I also can. You can, it’s just that the tampon comes out really fast. It’s like a projectile. Just kidding. You can. You want me to tell you why? Yeah. No, you don’t have to tell me. Okay. Because the urethra. There’s a different hole. Yeah. Okay. I’m feeling really good about where we are. Okay. Uh, this one, um, there’s flex here. No three, two, one, and I, I get it. How long does the average menstrual cycle last? Not, not period, but menstrual cycle. Five days. Uh, the average? Uh I think it might be from the pre menstrual, I’d say seven. Well, pre menstrual is not menstrual. I think you’re both talking about period time, but this is, this is from, oh, the 28 days. Yeah. Oh. The whole cycle. Yeah. Oh. Hey! Things are really looking up! I am so proud of you! You’re always menstruating. You’re always in your cycle. You’re always in your cycle. It’s like the moon. Right. All the time. It’s constant. Okay, here’s another 3, 2, 1. I do, I will say, okay. I will say, at times I feel like um, sometimes I feel like there’s something hormonal happening with me, and I think that it’s, it’s a, it’s a mild cycle, you know? I’m like, maybe it’s the moon. Sure. You know, I’m not gonna say that I’m having a period. I’m just saying that sometimes I prefer to call it rhythms. I’m just saying that there’s something hormonal happening with me right now, not nearly to the degree that it happens with, uh, my better half. Uh, but I’m like, there’s, there’s no way that just circumstances are making me feel this way. It’s gotta be, there’s gotta be something going on in my body right now. Remember when you said that you, that kefir made you happier? Yeah. Did you give up on that? No, but I think like everything, cause I still have kefir every single morning. I think you adjust and your body’s like, give me someelse. Oh, you know? Okay. So I’m still happy, but I’m not as happy as I was when I first started kefir. Okay, we can get rid of the fifth question then. Um, it’s three, two, one. How many ovaries does someone with a female reproductive system have in their lifetime? Three, two, one. Two. Okay. In their lifetime? I think that was a trick part of the question. It was a misleading question. Like, it was about eggs. How many eggs do you have? Well, you have the number of cycles that you’ve been through. Right? No, you got a bunch of eggs, right? Got a lot of eggs. There’s a lot of eggs. But you relea You make You, like, release it. Here’s a question for you, Stevie, and I’m gonna give you a three, two, one. Oh! No, I don’t like This is not how this show works. Is it Is it ovaries or ovum? Three, two, huh? What?

What’s an ovam? What’s the difference between ovaries and oum? 3, 2, 1. Link I don’t know. . See? Is that a word? Yeah, I think it is, ovum. Yeah. Is it just two, that means multiple ovaries? Oh, it’s, it’s a mature female reproductive cell. Oh. Which can divide to give rise to an embryo. Oh. Okay. See, you didn’t know. You’re asking me to google it. Well, that’s why I was asking. Uh huh. Why are there different sizes of tampons? Um, because of the strength, well, because of the, because of the weight of the heaviness of the flow. Okay, I did not think that’s where Link was going. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s where I was going. Okay. You’re correct. Because you have light days. Yeah. And you have heavy days. When I’m on the toilet, sometimes I’ll pick up the tampon box and just look at it and read the directions? And there’s like, read the directions, and there’s like, different, so you get boxes that have the different sizes, which makes sense, because then you’re kinda, in every month, you’re gonna, you know. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Wove him! Wove him! Yeah, right. Uh huh. Okay, well, since we’re on that, uh, what does, in, uh, in terms of tampons, what does R L S stand for? Rhett, Link, and Stevie. We all three fit. Mm hmm. We are all three tampons. Large, regular, and small. Right, left, and center. Light? Light? Real light. Super. S is super. Regular and super. Yep, light, regular, and super. Yeah, it’s pretty fun. Super. What a fun fact. Super, super, super. I’m a super tampon. Uh, you know what, those things, anything associated with that, you know, uh, the trash cans have to be put on top of the counter. Cause, uh, cause, uh, cause the dogs. Golly. I tell you. Ooh, really? Mm hmm. Barbara. Really? Jasper. Barbara has a thing for a tampon. Jasper does too. It is one of the, it’s the only thing I don’t like about her. That is not something you want to find. And, uh, boy. Your dog wrestling with. I’ve had to, I’ve been responsible for cleaning that up a couple of times and. I grew, I grew. I’m grateful that my dogs don’t have that affinity. Well, uh, you know, I’ll come home and then it’ll be like. Oh, the trash can’s on the counter. Okay. Oh, it’s a, it’s a nice little signal. Yep. Okay. Alright. Hunker down. Weather the storm. Weather the dry, the dry period for me. That’s like one of those things that over time will become like a communication device. Like, okay. Initially it was like, okay, your wife is on her period. So it, but then it becomes like your wife is just upset with you. Yep. Putting the can it becomes like a on, it’s like that trash can has been on the counter for three months, three generations later. Right. How long can sperm live in a vagina? Uh, I think as much as 72 hours. Um, 72 hours? Yeah. How many days is that? Three. Good gracious. Um, hmm. That’s a long time, dude. I’m gonna say 48 hours. Five days. Oh! You better be careful. Five days? Life finds a way. Man, five days. Now, we can’t do that. We can’t do that anymore. Nope. We don’t have it. Nope. We have it, but it doesn’t have a way out. Yeah. It’s just backed up in there. No, it’s reabsorbed and gives us our vitality. Uh huh. Uh huh huh. Uh, five day, I mean that, but to be fair, that five day old sperm. You don’t want that to get you pregnant. Yeah, you’re gonna have an old baby. You’re gonna have a Benjamin Button baby. That’s how that works. Um, how big is a human egg? In terms of diameter. Like, you can use a comp if you want. I think it’s a it’s a male finger. Average male fingertip. I don’t think it’s that big. I think, because you see it under a microscope and you see the sperm entering it. Oh, that’s a good point. I always, I always, I always bring a microscope to bed. That could be taken the wrong way. Um, we have entry. Uh, I think it is one millimeter across. Yeah. One millimeter that’s educated very small. Hmm. Point one two millimeters. Oh. Not as big as a male fingertip. Okay. The roughly the size of a strand of hair. Oh. Oh. . Roughly the size of a stranded man’s fingertip. Could you, I mean, that’s a big egg. Yeah, that’s like a bird’s egg. Yeah, but we’re not talking about birds. No. Oh. I take it back. Uh, you, I think you kind of answered this already, but how long does a normal period last? I was gonna say I said five days. Seven days, all things, all things included. It’s two to seven days. Okay. So five is. The two, the two is interesting to me. Just, yeah. How does one, how does one, how does one receive that? Yeah, yeah. Is there a pill for that? Oh, well, yeah, okay. There is a pill, there’s a pill you can take that will move your, um, your cycle. Well, I mean, birth control is what it’s called. No, no, no, no. No, there is a, there is a special pill, like. For like a vacation? If you’re like, if you’re going on a romantic getaway and you want to, there’s a pill you can take that will just move it. And I, I don’t think it skips a month. I don’t think it skips a month. I think it just moves it, but I could be wrong about that. What’s it called? We were told about that, uh, shift it, shift it. Delay, delay to play. Oh, okay. Did you say shift it, shift it? Yeah, I did, I did. I did, a little throwback. Are you looking this up? Cause no one seems to be familiar. Uh, I was getting information from the Mythical Crew. Yeah, yeah, it’s a thing. Wisp? Oh, that’s a great name. So, how does it work? Wisp away. This is something that I don’t believe we have a, a personal use case with, but we have seen commercials. Uh, I do like talking about our collective use case when it comes to this type of thing. I have a friend who’s used it and recommend. I have a friend who’s used it and recommended it to us. And, um, we’re like, oh, good to know. Cause you plan these, you know, you take it three days before you’re going to use it. You’re supposed to have it, and it delays it? It delays it. It delays it? For how long? There has to be some It doesn’t say. It says that you can take it for up to 20 days. There has to be some kind of side effects, though. Yeah, I mean, uh, Messing around with your side effects. I’m not advocating it, but, um, I’m saying it was recommended. Okay. I’ll read about that later. We’re doing great! You are really doing great! I’m just telling you. I’m so proud of you! I mean, I knew something. I feel so good about it. I just knew something nobody else in this room knew. That’s true. You just introduced us all to it. And when that happens, I just have to, I have to be the one to say that. Are you being paid by Big Wisp? Yeah. It looks like, the site looks like they could get a branded integration from us. And I would love that. Link should be the face of whisk. You would think with eggs it would be called whisk. But it’s not. Link is gonna start a, whisk in away! A rival brand, Whisk. And he’s just standing there with a whisk. On the website. His face is on all the ads and the packaging. You won’t push your period! It’s me! Uh, what is the average, what are the average ages that menstruation starts and stops? Starts. It’s getting, it’s getting younger and younger for reasons we don’t know. Right. Maybe some this is, these are average. 13 is probably the average. Um, and when does it stop? 50. Maybe 48. You’re so close. Uh, 12 and 51. Oh, yeah. Okay, we’re, we didn’t push it out far. The average has gone down. Bless you. Like 50 years ago, it definitely wouldn’t have been that. Because of um, plastics maybe, we don’t know. Hormones in food. Let me get this out of my butt crack. This uh, this is hurting. Do you need a whisk? Yep. Okay. Ooh, look at that. That was all the way in my butt crack. And this is, this is an interesting one. I don’t know if I knew this. True or false? I kind of gave it away. True or false, people who menstruate spend, who spend extended time in close proximity to each other are likely to eventually sync cycles. I’ve always been told that that was true, but I have a suspicion that it is just our pattern seeking brains. And it’s not real. Yeah. False. It’s false, huh? Put that to bed. It’s when it happens, you notice it. Yeah. That’s what makes the world go around. So you don’t sync cycles. I bet it’s misogynist. Ooh, I bet there’s probably something that, you know, I don’t think so. I never liked saying it. I think our experience as a crew. Back here is that we disagree with this. We think it’s true. Oh, you also believe in astrology. Yeah, probably. I think it’s called mistrology. Whoa menstrology. I didn’t say that but that’s better. Yeah, menstrology. Yeah, we found it. Can you make a fart sound with your hand? I think now would be a good time for that. Make your New Year’s resolutions extra delicious in 2025.
