Which sound effect machine is the best? Welcome to Good Mythical More. Feeling a little soggy. A little less soggy- Yes. By the second, though. Before we get into testing sound effect machines, which is important- Yes. A portion of today’s More is sponsored by Oura, creator of Oura Ring, the revolutionary smart ring. Now, you know that I’ve talked a little bit about my white noise machine, right? I use that constant noise to stay asleep. And you may have heard the story where I was sleeping in close proximity to Link and his wife. It was a road trip. They were… There was a wall. There was a wall between his wife and my wife and me and him. I was with my wife. He was with his wife. And there was a wall between us. And there was a wall. I’m sorry I’m making it weird. And I learned that you have this playlist that you listen to that kept waking me up through the wall. Like when a bass note would hit. It’s dynamic. Yeah. And the way that I knew that I wasn’t sleeping well was A, I was waking up a lot. But then I was able to look at the data generated by my Oura ring to learn that I had not slept very well. I don’t know what’s wrong. Rhett’s sending me screenshots of his Oura app, saying, “You owe me.” I got one of my lowest scores ever because of that. Okay. I’m sorry. So if you’re- I was fine.

Okay. Bring in the first sound effect machine. So what is the practical application of these? Well, it’s to help you sleep. Let’s see if this’ll help you sleep. Okay, that sounded like a fart. Yeah, it did, didn’t it? What about this? You sleepy? Okay, so this is like if you’ve got, you know, if… There’s two types of people that might use this. Number one, a radio host. That’s a dying art. But also- That’s right. Someone who just likes to- I’m here! Emphasize. And I’m ready to host radio. Okay, I’m just gonna go through all these again. Is there a theme to it? See if you can pick up on a theme. That’s a different one. Okay. That’s out of the mouth. That’s a cow. Is that a cow burping- There’s a diagram. Or farting? That’s a cow. That’s still the cow. No, it’s a person making noise, lying on their back. Rubber chicken. What is that? Is that muting something? That’s for cursing. I mean cursing? That’s for cursing, you mother . Censoring? Your mouth also didn’t move. Which is good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. YouTube. Didn’t have to blur it. Keep going. I’ve done that one. It’s realistic. I like to hear the sounds of people breaking into my windows when I’m trying to sleep. That’s for a cat call. We don’t do those. No, no. No, that’s not a cat call. I think it’s a cowboy language. Yeah, that’s cowboy language. Cowboys communicate with livestock using whistling. You really brought that. Yeah. You closed the wrong eye, though. I think you need to, yeah. The eye that’s underneath the camera needs to be open. What? What? What are you trying to… It’s a money symbol. I know. Oh, that’s like if, like, a slot machine kind of thing. We have other ones to use. Bring. Do they have the sound of two men drinking dirty water? Oh! Yeah, they do. Okay, so what does this water have in it? Oh, it’s milky. This is every single food. Oh, Link, the Pop-Tart has got a wiggle in it. I don’t wanna bring in the Pop-Tart because we filmed an extra round for the Mythical Society exclusively. Sometimes we do that. If you’re a member, you can go over there and you can see it. And I’m looking at the Pop-Tart discovery that we made. It is wild. It is wild. Like- This could really spice things up. I almost wanna show it to you, but I really want you to be on the Mythical Society. Does anybody wanna volunteer to drink this? That was good. That was good. You really thought that was good? Yeah, that was the best thing you’ve done. So it’s more like, anybody wanna volunteer to drink this? Crickets was really good. Okay. And then I’ve got… Now, don’t be scared, ’cause this is just a sound effect. Oh. You thought it was gonna be like- It said ‘boo’, but I thought it was gonna… You thought it was gonna be like a ghost boo. Yeah, I did. Toilet flushing. That’s not a good one. All right, let’s drink this. It’s got- The remnants of all kinds stuff. It’s got some floaty rice cake at the top. And we gotta figure out the right thing to push when it’s over. Well, maybe we should. Mm. What? Do you have it? You can’t test it ahead of time. That’s gonna mess with the comedy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. Let’s just keep it simple. Bear with us a second. Let’s just keep it simple. We’re trying to keep it simple. I’m gonna do two things. Okay? Okay. All right. I’m gonna go with a… All right. All right. Here’s the first one. Dink it. Oh, again? Did the glass break? It seems like it certainly did. And then what? When we drink, do you have one for that? It wasn’t good. It wasn’t good. It made it taste bad. Okay. It wasn’t comedy. Come up with better comedy. Okay. Maybe that one. That one always works for comedy. Okay. Okay. Oof. Excuse me. That always works for comedy. And I forgot to try mine. Oh. Hold on. Hold on, that’s a female sigh. Female sigh. Let me set mine aside. Okay. Oh. What about this one? That’s a male sigh. Why is it? I think the same person did both sighs. Yeah. Oh, good Lord. Oh, good Lord. What? That one’s called… So this is called Disappointed Sigh. Okay. There’s nothing intriguing about it. There’s nothing arousing. Nothing. There’s the male sigh. Female sigh. Sounds the same. Same person. Shocked sigh. Oh, good Lord. Oh, good Lord. End of the world sigh. That’s so weird. This one’s just not very well thought out. Not very well thought out. So you’re supposed to carry this around in your pocket in order to sigh? Oh, good Lord. Oh, good Lord. Okay, yeah. So these just exist on the internet. I mean, look at… This one has, like, actually pretty good Amazon reviews. Which one? The sigh one. It’s not loud enough. I couldn’t hear it. Yeah. When you played- It’s too quiet. Shocked sigh, it sounded like someone hawking a loogie back here. Yeah, it’s gross. Oh, good Lord. But people love it on Amazon. Let me try this one. Did you cheat? I want you to guess what the theme is. Okay. Zoo babies. You got that? All right. Not exactly. All right, here’s another one. Farm time. Nope. This is not domesticated. Mm-hm. Okay. Our wonderfer… Wonderfer. Wonderfern. National parks. I saw it. It’s Bigfoot. Oh, come on, dude. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What? I just wanted to make it entertaining. But I asked you earlier, and you said… That’s Bigfoot groaning. Bigfoot howling. So if you’re a Bigfoot believer, and somebody puts this in your stocking stuffer, do you like that or is that offensive? Anybody believe in Bigfoot here? No. This has even more, even higher rating on Amazon than the sighs. Come on. But that’s because this one- Somebody does. What you do is you go camping with your friends, and then when everybody’s in their tent, you just go and you just, you know, you go up outside of the tent right where their head is. You get close enough to their ear and they’ll think it’s right out there. I mean, if you heard that. I mean, if you heard this a number of times. You might find yourself saying. Oh, good Lord. Like, if there’s a Bigfoot right outside your tent. Another one. Oh, good Lord. All right. Oh my gosh, Rhett. This one has so many. You’re gonna… All right, I don’t want you to read this one either. See if you can guess what it is. It sounded like a animal. Yep. Tiger? Another button. Official Tiger King. Oh. That was a little ghostly. Zombie time? No. Different button. That one was weird. Here’s another one. Well, that one. Ghost train. That is not a train that you’re hearing. That is something else. Four. There’s 16 buttons on this thing. And I don’t know how they captured these sounds. Oh, supernatural-ish. No. I don’t think it would be possible for them to capture these things. You think conceptually. This review says, “Got this for my grandson who is into dinosaurs. I’m always on the lookout for loud, battery-operated toys to send home with my grandkids. It’s the little things, you know? Of course, I have no idea if the noises from this are anything remotely close to what the actual dinos made, but neither does my grandson.” Yeah. So can you… Is that a self-aware review or no? Can you guess? Can you guess what this one is? Oh yeah, yeah. Brontosaurus. Brontosaurus. That was the Allosaurus. One of the big ones, right? Yeah. What is that? We’re still in plant eaters. Again. Go back to the screechy one. Pterodactyl. Yes. And the flapping wings. Ah. It’s not a train. What about this? T-Rex. Mm-mm. Nope. This one’s closer to your heart. It’s more recent. Closer to my heart? Mm-hm. Closer to your comfort zone. Here’s the meteor that killed them all. Really? That’s what it says? Yep, and here’s the volcano that killed some of them. Oh, it seems a little traumatic. This one is a cat. Can’t you hear the catness? Oh, saber tooth tiger. Yes, we have a saber tooth tiger skull in our office. It’s fake. It’s fake. All right, another one. All right. See if you can figure this one out. Stevie, don’t spoil this one. Okay. What? You spoiled the dinosaur one. I’m just saying. When you said dinosaur, then he knew it was dinosaurs. Oh, I thought he had already guessed it was dinosaurs. Mm-mm. He didn’t. He was baffled. This one just says Sound Effects. I don’t know what this one is. It may not have a theme. Okay. Okay. Well, I think the color may be an indication. Yeah. Okay. Oh. That’s a personal favorite. Maybe move a little bit when it happens. Well, you know what, I saw recently somebody took a little clip from the show that we make. And I was adjusting in my seat, and, like, you were talking, and I went. And people were like, “Rhett just farted on camera.” But they added it. I wouldn’t do such a thing. Did our editors do that? No. This is what- Start doing that. No. This is what it would look like. This is what would look like. This is what it would sound like. I would make it that obvious. Are you… Oh God. Okay. We gotta stop, man. We gotta stop. There’s one more, though. That’s just somebody using their mouth. You know? It’s just somebody at the plant, using their mouth. I want a real volunteer. I’m not spoiling what it is, ’cause I know you still haven’t really guessed. Thank you. But the Amazon, like, listing, you can either get the original or this one, and it seems a little precarious because the reviews are all mixed in. And the first review says “Natural outdoor sounds for relaxation and better sleeping.” Yeah, I know how it is when they mix the reviews, and then you get the fart one. That’s happened to somebody. Natural outdoor sound. You spoiled it! It’s farts. Oh, it’s farts. All right, next. This one comes with a separate speaker. Oh yeah. I’ll let you play with this one. You put this in your kid’s room. It’s like a baby monitor. Everything’s so blue-coded today. Okay. Whoa. Okay, all right. That separate speaker really packs a punch. Okay. Hold on. What? It’s got multiple if you… This sounds like machinery. Is this construction? I’m pressing the same button. And it’s just, it’s cycling through. Okay. Some of them- I guess I wore them out. Literally sounded like… Oh God. Oh. That’s worse for me. I think I’d rather hear a fart than a burp. Oh, I think I would. I think I would too. You know, the thing is, we don’t have to hear either one, but I got these buttons. But there’s more, there’s more comedy- I got these buttons I gotta press. In the lower end. I wore the fart button out. It won’t even accept any more input. It’s like you’ve reached your quota. Okay. Oh yeah! Now, if that- Now. If that sound could come outta my butt, yes, please. I guess if I could, if I got this up in there, then anything could. Huh. That’s a bad cricket. That could’ve been better. This cricket’s better. Okay. You just waiting for somebody to make a bad joke, and then you just have this in your pocket. Yeah, yeah. This person says “Noises are pretty good. But the range of the remote is pathetic. I work in a warehouse, and unless I’m standing next to it, forget it. Can’t hide it behind anything ’cause then it won’t work at all. I have a smaller and cheaper one that blows this one away when it comes to the range of the remote.” Yeah, you gotta wear this as a necklace. Yeah. Just to, you know. This isn’t for hiding. This is for, you know. Okay. It’s for dating. All right. Dating. This is gonna be a tough one. I’m gonna give, you can take this home. Okay. So you and your wife can play with it. Okay. If you can guess what animal this is, okay? You get three guesses. Okay. Gazelle. That’s an animal? Keep going. A house cat. Yep. All right. Am I good? You can keep it forever if you get this one right. I’m good at this? Okay? All right. Okay. But I’m gonna give you four guesses on this one. All right. Barking. Barking spider. Ah, okay. That’s your first guess. I’m thinking Chihuahua. It’s just a dog. Oh, just a dog. Just a dog. Okay. What else? That’s it. That’s all. This is my favorite one so far. ‘Cause I like the volume. And I think, is that the last one? So I don’t like having… My favorite one is this one. Instant Audience. Because, you know, we’re always looking for an audience. Oh, good Lord.
