GMMore 2884: What’s the Best Way to Melt Ice?

Who can melt ice the fastest? Welcome to Good Mythical More. We’ve got Big Ice. Big Ice has taken over the show. We are completely obligated to do whatever they want. Not true, not true. We just have big ice. We just have big large ice. Wait, where did you get this big ice from? Ice Chest. Ice Chest. Yeah. Is a place. Yeah, it’s a place. It’s in Burbank. All right. Our challenge, if we choose to accept it. I don’t know if I wanna accept it Is to see who can melt their ice block faster over the course of this Good Mythical More. And they’ve given us a basket of stuff here that we can try, including a fan. It looks like such a nice gift basket. Yeah, this is nice. Oh, it’s a hot potato. Ha ha. I do accept. How does this, oh, here we go. Oh, yeah. Oh, I’m blowing myself. I’m now, I’m, I’m cooling off that ice… Sugar, not salt. So is this gonna, so if I’m blowing the, the cool away from it, maybe it’ll start melting. Do you want your mystery prize from the main or? Yeah. If it’s a blowtorch. Well, it’s almost the opposite. Let’s, ooh, this thing’s got multiple left. Let’s deliver. Let’s deliver that mystery prize. Oh, what is that? Hmm. Thank you so much. It’s a cool mist. It’s a cool, oh, it smells good. Smells nice. That smells good. Glad I got my glasses out of the way. Thanks for the warning. A little strong on the, on the mist. I dunno, what, what is that bag? Sea salt and vinegar and chips. Okay. We also got some whiskey. This is room temp. Is there anything about whiskey? I don’t. Do I want to burn a whole bottle of whiskey on this? I mean, what if I just Cold. You? You, you. Okay? You got a hot potato? Find a little something that’s hot, that’s hot. Is this gonna work? I think this is gonna work. You want some chips? I’m gonna try to burn something. So I’m just giving you a heads up that I am going to set this entire tray on fire. With a little Jack Daniels. What proof is that? Let me get a good fire going. Is it high enough proof to set on fire? No. Let me try again. Is it 80 proof? What is that? Seven proof. Nope. 80 proof. That’s not gonna catch on fire. How do you know? What do you need? You need 90? You need 90 proof? You need ever clear. Actually, I don’t know, but I think I heard that somewhere. I think what I’m gonna do is. Have a chip. Well then that’s gonna put it out. Huh? I’m gonna, I need to make a bed of chips now that I have. So you’re just trusting the process over here. I know that you guys are really concentrating, but… I am using potato chips as something that will then hold my. Flame above the Jack Daniels. Can I tell you about some police activity in my neighborhood I haven’t told you about? Yes. Yep. Um, okay. You both know where, where I’m at, so you can picture in your mind, um, if there are, are police cars in the neighborhood, something’s gone wrong, right? Right. Uhhuh. Yeah. ’cause they don’t frequent the… We woke up this weekend and, uh, appeared outside and there were two, no, there were three police SUVs, and, uh, one policeman was kind of approaching our house. So of course, Cassie needs to go out and talked to everybody. And so she pokes her head out and he’s like Do you know, who lives here. And he’s pointing at her neighbor’s house and she’s like, we do, um, they’re… You know, it’s a, it’s a young couple. They’re artists, we’re friends with them. Is everything okay? And he’s like, well, I don’t, I don’t know yet. And she looks up and she goes, I will say though, that’s not their car. So I don’t know if they’re here. That’s not their car. Oh, oh my goodness. Somebody else’s car. So then we see, uh, an older gentleman come out of the house that. An older gentleman does not live in and, uh, they’re walking him towards the police car In cuffs? Not in cuffs, but obviously something has transpired. And what we find out is that her dad, the, the wife’s dad, uh, was in town and he woke up early and he said, you know what, I’ll take your car to the car wash for you as a nice little treat since I’m in town. And he took, uh, his daughter’s car to the car wash. Now his daughter drives a, like a wagon, basically like a, like a smooshed, SUV, and I believe it’s a Mazda or a Honda, and it’s gray and it has a lot of stickers on it. Are you listening to me? I can’t tell That’s the best kind. A lot of stickers. I love those cars with stickers. Okay, that’s a lot of smoke. But what’s in his, uh, their driveway now? It is a black SUV. It’s a different car. Uh, different car entirely. So coming out of the car wash, her father grabbed an entirely different car, drove an entirely different car. Back to her house and didn’t realize it. – So he committed grand theft auto – But it was clean at the car wash. Hey, well that’s a good place to do it ’cause there’s a lot of cars. And then three cops had to come and get him and they didn’t want him to drive the car back to the car wash. So they put him in the back of one of the cop cars. To drive him to the car wash to get his daughter’s actual car. And then the woman whose car he stole, they drove back to the neighbor’s house. And when she got there, I watched her like check around the windows as if like it could be someone else’s car rather than her own car. And so then Cassie, who has a, a Ford truck we’ll say. Um, texted and asked if her dad could take her car to the car wash because she’s looking for a rivian. How much of that did you listen to and ’cause now it smells bad in here and I wasn’t watching what you were doing. Yeah. How much of that did you watch what we were doing? Not at all. I was paying attention to my story. Well, I hope the people who were listening enjoyed my story. Well, I, I heard everything on your story and, um. How similar were the cars? Not, it was a smushed gray, uh, what do you call it? Not a wagon But they were both clean – But maybe he thought… – They were both clean. One had a bunch of stickers and was gray. Yeah. One was an SUV and it was black without, without stickers, and the stickers got washed off. Oh. And apparently when he came back from the car wash, he goes. Well, I hope you didn’t want anything in your car. ’cause they all, they threw all of that away and they also threw away my breakfast. Hold on. When did he get breakfast in the car? Before he went to the car wash? I guess. You know what, you gotta hand it to the guy though, because The last thing he’s gonna do is question himself. Like he’s not gonna question that he’s got the wrong car. Exactly. Even when the breakfast is gone. Yeah, he’s not, that’s somebody who’s committed to the plan It’s a really thorough car wash. Also, oh, he’s a Good Mythical Morning fan. Yeah, that makes sense. And um. The neighbor told, told Cassie this. And so Cassie was over there for something and she was like, oh, you know, um, my partner’s Stevie. And he was, he like, kind of just didn’t give a, a face that was, you know, that that said that he knew who that was. Um, and then after the car wash thing happened, I was walking and I saw him outside. And I said, good morning, whatever. Uh, and then I heard him turn around to his daughter and go, I know who that is. How old is this man? Um, probably in his early seventies. From North Carolina. So, so not old enough to really be… Bringing back wrong car Making this type of mistake. Yeah. He might have thought you were his granddaughter based on the car wash incident. Age ain’t nothing but a number. Well, this is like, this is, I think there’s something that’s a little bit more common that I have done, and that’s getting the wrong suitcase at the airport. You’ve done that. My suitcases have big orange ribbon tied on. I did it. Well, no, I, I’m gonna tell this story as if it was just me. And not that it was my wife, because I honestly can’t remember which of our suitcases it was, but… Hold on, give me a second. ’cause I’m gonna do something entirely unrelated and barely listen to you. Okay, go ahead. Good. Um, the, she had a pink suitcase and this was at the beginning of that, like where everybody, before everyone had an away suitcase and we thought that we were special because we had one The brand. One of the hard shells that now everybody has something that’s like it. And so you know, you get off the flight and you’ve got the pink away suitcase and you just take it and you walk out. And it wasn’t until, I swear, we got in the car and drove off. I can’t remember how we realized Was this a baggage claim or a carry-on? Baggage claim. Okay. Yeah, it was baggage claim. Was this baggage claim or carry-on? Baggage claim. And, uh. But now that, that never happens, because I got these little tags that have, we’ve, we’ve gone through multiple things for a while. We got these tags that have these like googly eyes on them, and then I got another, now I have a tag that’s a, um, like a different color. And then there’s a, you can buy these wraps for the handle that’s just like, oh, the handle has an orange wrap on it. So the chances that. You have the orange thing on the thing and then, but also even now because of that, ’cause I got PTSD from taking the wrong thing, I check the name and make sure it’s my name. Even if I’ve got the one with a handle on. So what happened to, how did you make the exchange? I could make up a story about how, what I remember, because I don’t remember. Three police cars came to your house. You don’t remember that part. You must have not been in the car. You must have taken it back to the baggage claim. And maybe they hadn’t claimed yours because it wasn’t theirs. I swear. We went home with it. You went home with it and opened it up and was like, oh, this is in our suitcase. I’m so happy that you can’t tell this story because… No, it’s like 15 years ago and I can’t, I… My memory is very bad. Yeah. I can’t remember, I just can’t remember Our memories are failing us, Rhett. I had a moment coming off the last flight I was on… And, uh, I took my carry-on out of the top, uh, what do you call it? What do you call this? Overhead? Overhead, yeah. And, uh, a woman behind me was like, that’s my bag. And I was like, I am 99.9% sure this is not this woman’s bag. And it wasn’t. It was my bag. She’s trying to be a bag thief. – She had a same bag, but it wasn’t… – Well, what has happened to me multiple times is I get the bag, you know, the bag comes around and you take it off with a baggage claim, and then somebody comes up to me and says, I, I think that’s my bag. And then I’m like. And I, and I don’t like get upset about it, but I, you know, I get it. You turn into a mime? I, I get it that people are really protective about it. Yeah. It’s a squirrely moment. You have to come in soft, not hard. You gotta come in soft, come in cold, not hot. You don’t wanna come in too hot. You wanna come in warm because everybody is just trying to, everybody’s just trying to get home or arrive, whatever they’re trying to do. Oh, thank you. – Also on that same plane… – it’s not ever happened again flight, this man in front of me farted on, on like On take off… Early on, huh? Thought like, you know, you can fart on planes and no one can hear you. But like miscalculated the timing. And so he just farted really loud at like on taxi, like we weren’t even in the air yet. And then the guy next to him was like, mumbling something about how, you know, you gotta hold those until you get up. And I just was like, what are you, what an odd. An odd social situation. This is this grown ass man. Yeah. Let one rip on the taxi. Well, my last flight I was on somebody, I’d say every 30 minutes. Just really just released the hounds if they, you know what I mean? They might have been sleeping. Why? You think you’re trying to take out for ’em? You’re saying they would’ve, I’m just saying if you’re sleeping. Oh. So okay, you, you know that you’ve done this. I have to think I have. Well, I think the way that this, you fart in your sleep, man. If this fart, if they were responsible for this fart, it would’ve woken them up. I mean, there’s no way that you could sleep through this. Because I had to stop eating my, I had to stop eating. I was like, oh. Oh God. It was one of those, it was one of those, like, I gotta put my, my face in my clothes now. Sorry that happened. You might be able to get the whiskey going with that thing. Well, let’s get back. I’m no expert. Wait, do you have an entire thing of matches on your tray? He used them all there. I think what we’re learning today is that ice really holds up. Yeah. It does. Look at how smooth it gets though. Look at how smooth that is. Mm-hmm. Man, that’s so smooth. It’s just, you know, my favorite thing to watch are those where they, where they go to those old seats at a stadium and they, they torch ’em and they look all new. You gotta be real careful with that. Here you go. You wanna make some french fries over there? The sugar and breathing slurry. I don’t think, I actually think that mine was going a little, mine was melting at a slower rate than you. Mine was bigger than you. Look at how smooth you can make it It’s just the smoothest ice. I mean, this would take a long time and we don’t have that kind of time. It’s so smooth. We got things to do. We got places to be who’s gonna put a hole in it? But a car wash is a, is a really good place to steal a car. And you know, that person wasn’t thinking… They weren’t thinking. Somebody got the wrong car. – They were thinking… – Well, wait a second. How did the police know to come to my neighbor’s house? The woman. Had a tracker in her car. Yeah, some car. Yeah. She probably has a location thing on her car. Lemme tell you. It was a much nicer car. He upgraded. He just upgraded his daughter’s car. Yeah. A new episode of Good Mythical Weekend is coming your way. Saturday morning. Tune in. Ribs make your fart. Right? I’ve heard that. Alright, now can each of you one at a time take three steps forward and then three steps back? Those are the most innocent steps anyone’s ever taken.
