Welcome to Good Mythical More, where anything could happen and often does. Today we are going to analyze common conspiracy theories and some uncommon ones. Many from Reddit, if not all of them, to decide if they are true. Thanks for stalling. We’re donating $1,000 to Action Against Hunger to aid– Rack it up today! End malnutrition for everyone for good. For 45 years, they’ve been addressing malnutrition and responding to hunger hotspots across 59 countries, reaching more than 21 million people every year. You can join us in giving at actionagainsthunger.org. Whoop, whoop, whoop. Now, these are low stakes conspiracy theories, so we’re not gonna. You know, we’re not gonna delve into the Yeah, yeah, yeah. We’re, we’re playing a surface level game here, but I’ve previewed the first one and I, I can get in these moods where I’m more susceptible to a conspiracy theory and I, I feel like maybe at least one of us. Okay. Will slip into that mode. Okay. Uh, I can’t even. Read this username so we’ll. It’ll show somewhere. They tell you to always arrive at the airport two hours early, not so you have time to get through security. But so you’ll spend money at the airport. Ha. I’ve flown at least 60 times in my life, and I’ve never had security take more than 45 minutes. Even at some of the busiest airports on a holiday weekend, most of the time the line to the Starbucks is longer than the security line. This is right up my alley. I’m gonna repeat this every single time. It’s not true. I go. It’s not true. I talked to an airport. You did? I talked to an airport. Oh, airport. Airport person. About this exact same thing. Oh, you talked to an airport person. Person, yeah. What? What is an airport person? It’s true. And it is just like the movie theater. They only want you there to buy the popcorn. It’s the same thing for the airport. How did the airport make money? Yeah, yeah. They make their money from the concessions. What airport person did he talk to? Some random person. On the, there’s a lot of mythical beasts at the airport. Uh, TSA, the crossover between TSA agents and mythical beasts. Yeah. Extreme. I’ve experienced it myself. Yep. Extremely high. I would say– You wouldn’t believe the stuff I’ve gotten through. I would say 6 outta 10 times, otherwise known as three outta five times, that I’m going through TSA, a lot of times the person who is the one that is at the booth at security, that’s, that is waiting to take your photo and then to see if you can go through. Yeah. Mythical beast. Three outta five. Three outta five. Yeah. I’d say for me it’s um. Two out of five. Yep. And, uh, little bit less in both of those times they think I’m Rhett. Oh God. For me it’s uh, or they at least one out outta 10. I actually don’t, but one time it was really early in the morning and they said, I hope you’re having a Good Mythical Morning. Oh. And you know what? It made me, it made my morning a little bit more bearable. Yeah. Not more mythical, Just more bearable. Um, well, an early play. I like this though, because, but it’s not true. You believe we’re humans. We believe what we want to believe. No. Yes, we do. I can give you the logic behind this. Yes, we do. He does too. He doesn’t like to be late for the airport, so he doesn’t wanna believe it. I hate being early for the airport, so I want to believe it. So here’s the thing. They have determined that if they say. Two hours. What that will do is that number is not something that everyone is going to do. So every single person, right, based on personality and disposition, is going to respond to that stipulation. And what it does is it creates a spread that gives a predictability to the way all the people go through the airport. So actually, this is what the airport person said to you. Yeah, basically. Really? Yeah, it, this wasn’t a TSA person. This was somebody who worked in, I can’t remember where it was. And it honestly, people flow. It could have been a YouTube video that I watched about airports. Um, whatever it is, the info, it’s not just making it up. The information is in there. So listen, the way that it works is when I, when, again, follow this logic, when you say two hours, some people like me and I think Stevie. Are going to get there three hours, two hours, maybe two and a half hours. I don’t play that game anymore. I, I, I, I, I’ve gotten smart to that. Especially, you gotta do a situation where you’re thinking, is it Burbank? Is it LAX? It depends where am I going? What day is I got way better about this? Did you say don’t talk about LAX? No, I said we are talking about LAX, let’s talk, don’t talk about Burbank. ’cause that’s, it’s an outlier. And I’m gonna hold you to this Stevie. I don’t, why are you saying anytime we travel together, you’re, it’s not on my on my schedule. You’re the one who decides when– That’s not true anymore. That might have been true previously. Will I speak up if it they give us too much time. Yes. Because I don don’t wanna get there that early. Great. But have you seen yourself going through TSA? Because it doesn’t matter how long it is, we always wait on you. Yeah. Me, I, yes. We had a conversation about last time. You have absorbed, you have multiple bags. I don’t even know how they let you through with that are attached to you in different places with different pockets. Well, I’m talking to fans. That’s true. It’s a fan thing. It’s fan service, Stevie. We, Rhett and I, the last time we traveled together. Yep. Stood back and just watched, watched, watched you for 10 minutes going through, talking about all your bags and stuff. Watch and learn. Watch and learn. And were you late? No. So the point of what I’m trying to to get to is if everyone was like, oh yes, I’m gonna be there two hours early, they would change that number because then they would be like, well, everybody’s getting to the airport a little too early. I understand the principal of what saying, and then if they were like. Oh, you only need an hour. Like I know people who are like, you only need an hour. If everyone said that, then they would have to change the way that they function at the airport because things go wrong. Things get backed up. Then all of a sudden you got people missing planes, so they’ve landed at the sweet spot that allows the whole infrastructure to work properly. Here’s the key. You can respond to that however you want to. Here’s how I’m gonna respond to it, okay? The beauty is that we’re both right. Different interests are at work here. Okay. There’s like, there, there’s the people flow and control and efficiency of such a chaotic system. Yes. You’re exactly right. Mm-hmm. But there’s also an economy here. Self-contained. Okay. Hermetically sealed by security, which, uh, we are fans of. We are both. Right. So this is a true. Conspiracy. I do not think that the number is based on the shopper. It’s the same. No, I think the number is based on let’s move on. What can go wrong? Also, what if you’re checking a bag? Can’t both lemme move on. If you’re checking a bag, you gotta get there. We’re both right to to. I’m not even arguing with you to check it in. Well, but do you not agree that it depends on where you’re traveling and for what purpose? Yes. That’s what I’m saying. Of course. Right. There’s a number of considerations. Like if it’s like, okay, if it’s a funeral. Okay. If you have traveling for a funeral and you’re like, that funeral is tomorrow morning. If I miss this flight, I am screwed. For me, I’m, I think about things like the Uber driver could get a flat tire. Like, it’s a small chance, but it could happen. And then I gotta like be on the side of the road, like get another, another Uber driver with my bags. I’ve added how much money. Oh, unexpected wreck. When I, last time I went to LAX right before we got to the airport, right where you get on the little thing and go with that tunnel. Yeah. There was a wreck and my guy was in the far left lane and he saw it develop and he’s like, oh no. And he like went completely sideways on the, that highway, the one 10, whatever it is. To get to the exit. And if it hadn’t have done that, I might have missed the flight. But you wouldn’t have. But the thing is, is that I didn’t have to worry about it because I was planning to arrive two hours early. Yeah. I don’t like to plan for worst case scenarios. I like to experience them. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I think, I think we can all be right. I think that’s what we’ve discovered, uh, but not about this next one. Okay. This is from Sean. This is from C– Shaun White? We don’t really care who, let’s be real. Jar companies tighten their jars. What kind of, jaw companies? Huh? What? What kind? Jar. Jar Jar companies. Jar companies tighten their jars slightly more than average, than the average woman’s gripped strength to maintain the patriarchy. This is definitely true. This is definitely true to maintain the patriarchy. I think that this theory is maintains the patriarchy. Mm. Yeah. It kinda this, this person’s never been in a lesbian household. Yeah. How do, first of all, how do lesbians get jars open? Mm-hmm. Oh my God. How do you do it? There’s number, there’s a number of ways. You’all have those things that are like that. We do that in the lesbian community. You have those things that like, uh, it is like the, the rubber thing that goes over the top to give you a better grip. I have a, it’s called a but hand, a V-shaped, uh, jar opener with a little teeth on it. Yeah. A V-shaped thing with teeth on it. It doesn’t work. It doesn’t work that well, uh, to be honest. Um, okay. We get ’em open. Don’t worry about us. We’re opening jars in our house left and right. Is there ever a moment at a lesbian household, and I think that this could be a, a moment in any household. Okay. Is there what happens at a household where a jar becomes un openable? I’ve never experienced that. Okay. Because you know what always works and I’m gonna say it and it’s not gonna work. The super hot water trick. Ah. You know what I’m saying? Yep. Okay. It always works. You don’t wanna go there sometimes. Yeah. But it always works. So we don’t think that this is true. We think that the question is sexist. Yes. We think any discussion about the question is sexist. Right? Um, and that’s why what the question was asked, and then it cut directly to me saying what I just said. Right. I have nothing to add. Right. Oh, okay. Now we’re moving on to one. I’m not a Reddit person. These have nice little tags on them. I don’t know if they’re awarded. How are they awarded? I don’t know. This one says hot take on it. But it, it appears to be adhered by another person to it. Uh, this is from Burgundy Sauce. Of course, it says people think British people are the, are the ugly because we cast regular looking people in our movies. I was watching Band of Brothers and nearly all the actors are pretty good looking and all American in the show. Whereas in films about British people and British made films usually have people who look more regular. See, we think this is a, I can casting choice, like literally like Americans are afraid to put ugly people on tv. I have noticed this. I don’t understand what the conspiracy theory is though. People think British people are, are the ugly because we cast regular looking people in our movies. The theory is that the average British person is not, is just as attractive as the average American person. And the only reason you might not think that is because of ugly representation. Hmm. Which we don’t have in America. It’s a really hot take. I I I, instead of just talking about the ugly, I think that, like to flip it, to understand what you’re saying. Okay. In America. We have a bunch of fake ass looking people that trot around this town, and we put ’em in movies because we are shallow. Yep. And the Brits are, they like realism, authentic. They’re going for the authenticity. So you’re telling me that our teeth are just as bad as theirs? Come on. Uh oh, length. Just kidding. Uh oh. I mean, it’s a trope. It’s a trope. I’m not, I’m, I was. I’m making a joke about the trope. Yeah, but you sound, you sounded, I think that everyone over there was liking you for a second then you said that and you lost it. I like to even it out. I don’t like people to like me too much. Okay, good. Good, good, good. Okay. I don’t, let’s move past and I’m in control of that. Yeah. Um, Arnold Schwarzenegger intentionally overdoes his accent as a personal trademark. Uh, he’s been living in the US since the sixties, or sorry, the states. So this must be an international person. This is interesting. He’s well educated and could easily afford accent production training. Oh, yeah. I, yeah, I paid, paid for it if he so choose. Chose. Moreover, German shares a lot of phonetic features with English, making it more likely that while he could still have an Austrian accent. He would certainly have a more neutral accent than, this is a interesting, this makes sense theory. He, he’s deci, he definitely has the power to, to lessen his accent. But do you think he does? Because my theory is that some people, it’s a decision. Some people have the ability to take the edge off of an accent and some people don’t. I, I, there’s a, there’s ability and there’s willingness. There are two aspects of this, but he’s a, he’s a performer, he’s an actor. He is also a politician, but he always does that. He does have qualifications to be able to manipulate what people think of you. I don’t know what is I’m saying specifically the ability to change your accent, though, because some people just, and as a, he’s a, he’s an actor, but in every role he ever played, he had that accent branding. I’m not saying it’s not a, it’s not a solid theory. I’m just saying that it’s not a, it’s what I mean. It’s not water tight because it might just be, he’s one of the people who, their accents don’t change no matter if they, they form an accent no matter where they move, who they’re around, they basically talk the same. It’s a, it’s a type of person and he might be that type of person. We had to do a brain scan. Arnold. Arnold, like we have made passive decisions to take the edge off our accent. Yeah. So I’m saying that our wives have not, right, but have they made an active decision to keep their accent or it would’ve changed? Are our wives, like the people you’re talking about that are unable to change their accent? Uh, I think it’s stickier with some people. Yes. I think accents are stickier with some people and it, and there’s probably some linguistics or whatever theory about this, but neither one of them, uh, well, they, neither one of them would have changed their accent if they could, but I think there’s also gradations, like when I listen to, they’re not saying that when I, well, I wish I could, but I can’t heard that when I listen to, like Jesse’s our, our honeymoon video. Her accent was five times as strong as it was, and I think Christie’s accent was probably, probably like 25% stronger than it is. Yeah, I, so I think her accent has changed less. And so I just think it’s, it is, it is just different. It’s just diff, so I think I’m just saying that, but I think that Arnold probably went and tried to get his accent changed because when he came over he was probably nervous about it. He didn’t, he, the branding thing didn’t make sense. He was like, I’m gonna have this accent, but then I’m gonna like get this role and I’m gonna be able to do anything. And it just didn’t work because he doesn’t have that part of his brain. He’s missing that part of the brain. Yeah. We gotta do a brain scan. The only way to settle this is a brain scan and if Arnold would like to do it. It, we will ask him to pay for it as well. And, but we will, uh, discuss the results on this show. He, he’s re he’s had positive reinforcement to keep it. That’s also true. I’m not denying that. It’s like somebody who’s branding is a real thick southern accent, like as a, like Jeff Foxworthy or whatever, you know? Right. So is he gonna, he he’s not incentivized to lose his accent, in fact, on stage, but off, I think he did. Oh, he did? Yes. Is he, is this a Larry, the cable guy situation? Well, Larry, the cable guy was never southern. He wasn’t, but Mater was, right? Yes. The talking tractor was. Next. Okay. This says, I’m not normally one for conspiracy theories, but this is pretty compelling. Yeah, it is. Oh. Marisa Tomei. It’s a me, Mario. It’s a me. Mario, okay, you. How did somebody, the fact that somebody discovered this, you got so well, hold on. So here’s the thing. What are we supposed to conclude? Marisa Tomei is Mario? I believe that’s the implication. And is Marisa Tomei actually misspelled there? I wanna make sure it’s got one R. And then does it have one s Marisa Tomei. It is correctly spelled. Yeah. All right then. It’s true. Yeah. Um, and finally, she’s Mario. That’s what we’re saying. We, we do have to get to this one. Uh, they intentionally make trousers form the bump that looks like a boner when you sit down. So men have plausible deniability if they get an unintentional erection. You call that a genus? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yep. Um, you call an unintentional boner, a genus or the part of the pants, a genus. Well, my daughter taught me that, but it’s a real term. She didn’t answer my question that well. She taught me that. Yeah, she’s, she was wearing pants and she had a genus and, and the more pleats, I was like, oh, the more pleats the– Got it. The more genus you have. I, I understand the two– You might call it a pleanus. Two that form that. Yeah. If you got big pleats, it’s a big pice. Well, if you’re wearing khakis, I wish I would’ve discovered this in middle school, but I was wearing, umbros and carrying my backpack in front of me. Um, this is true, but more men need to know about it so we can have more boners. I mean, I’m just realizing how much more boner I can have, so many years of being able to have more boner….. Wasted. I’m gonna let you, I’m gonna let you keep talking. The blood’s just better down there. Oh God. Than it is up here. Oh God.
