a female Rhett what’s your name yeah Courtney’s my female name that’s right no Courtney Rhett yeah when I take female form I go Courtney all right that was better right Courtney come on up take over she’s like I’m you don’t want to yeah I don’t you know listen no Aunt Courtney you can’t just be right I mean she actually is okay matter of fact Courtney why don’t you get why don’t you just move over a seat okay Rhett all right we’ve got some Q&A we’re gonna do uh so good mythical more we thought that we would take your questions so how is this going to work we’re going to pull those out of a hat Brett another ice bucket right yeah Rhett Rhett right right yeah okay yeah okay yeah we’re gonna go why don’t you ask the first question I’ll let I’ll let you off the hook well I think I think Rhett you should prove yourself by at least answering one question okay where you from Rhett I’m from Florida it’s wrong answer oh you’re from you’re from California vs Oranje but you grew up in North Carolina yeah yeah yeah I’m now you going in uh I’m not sure live in the valley okay yes the valley okay you’re obviously not the real rep but you can still try to answer the question is that okay how are the washrooms in Florida so far Wow right that’s doing all right thank you court makes right Thank You me Jen you read just got her to read the question how are the washrooms what’s a washroom I never use that term you didn’t write who wrote it but uh did that can’t readjust yeah is the camp I don’t think the cameras pointed at us anymore hello it was pointed right at me it’s fine just keep it there um the washrooms the water does not taste well at this hotel it tastes kind of ocean II which uh which is great I’m not complaining next question that’s all you well I want to go through the shower the shower pressure is pretty good I want to go through and number eight got some late comers here alright are you are you screening these yeah I mean I read it and then I gave it to you if you wrote an autobiography what would be the title adventures at death world I think this is from Madison gee Madison if you’re still out there you know the thoughts crossed our mind to write a book so I can’t really answer this because I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag but would you like for us to write a book okay so I’ve got I’ve got seven people in this region who would purchase it so that’s our business plan we’re going for it okay what is your favorite idea that you couldn’t pull off this is a good one uh hey bud better late than never we actually do have an answer to this we once came up with an idea to do a music video that involved what there’s these guys that they float themselves up with huge weather balloons you know like the guy that like does the Iggy’s in like the lawn chair and he goes up and goes across the world he like shoots the the helium balloons with his BB gun to come down we thought we would do a music video where everything including us and all the instruments are in the air floating like that maybe maybe tethered maybe not tethered to the ground but we have not been able to pull that off but at death world it’ll be the main attraction what is your writing process a writing process is pretty collaborative we will come up with concepts I mean we try to put a lot of jokes in our songs I’m assuming that you’re asking about songs I’m at least gonna get oh that’s you I was already looking at you how weird I knew this is what’s your name yep and I knew this is your question I just can’t hear you from here so songs we sit in a room and we come up with we agree on the song we’re going to write about and then we write the concepts or what are going to be the comedic angles to this thing but we don’t make a rhyme or anything and then we’ll usually divide up depending on the type of song you take half I’ll take half or if it’s or one of us will take it and the other one we’ll move on to something else to kind of put it in rhyme form and we used to do everything together but now we kind of have a lot do we have to do so we kind of divide up things of this nature and then we’re writing together and coalescing you said yeah good answer link I was going to add something but the girls were so excited that I’m just going to stop move on what is the most expired food item you have ever eaten I tend to not eat expired food as a principal but often I enjoy I enjoy coffee coffee everyday coughing haha well there’s a lot of Wow I don’t enjoy coffin I enjoy coffee every day and I put cream in it and you know when the creams a little bit old and it floats up to the top little pieces of cream float to the top mmm I just that I just reached her and go for it I mean really it adds a little a little tang to it like coffee chips that’s about as that’s about as crazy as I get what expired food I’ve scraped the top off of a hummus thing many times the first layer you get the mold off and go for this yeah just scrape the top off well is that a is that a turkey a megaphone or a beehive it’s a man it’s a hat on a megaphone don’t use it you don’t have that power here favorite music genre I think I think some people would be surprised to know that Retta both like it’s not like we listen to comedy music or even a lot of upbeat music we like depressing music when you say yeah like this like very opposite of anything we would ever create I we want to be totally depressed like and you’re developing this picture of us that obsessed with morbid touch what’s gonna be playing on the finger of death world in do see very somber depression inducing music like Bon Iver sad kind of sit there and is go oh yeah this guy was just in a cab and I backed off just thinking about what am I gonna come in contact with another human next next question what’s your favorite part of playlist live this is pretty great I like going in the innards of the hotel oh it smells like innards you know I mean like the the back halls where they make the food first of all it’s like a labyrinth not to not like David Bowie’s not in like a tight-fitting pantsuit not to get not to bad-mouth the hotel but the food is not great and and I and I think I know why because we just walked in the back there to come here we walk past it looked like a prison had a good like they were making food for a prison if you were cooking in a catacomb it would taste it would taste funny too yeah how are your kids doing and will you include them in more of your videos our kids are healthy we included them in a recent video where they shot Nerf darts at us did you miss that one hello well I will exploit our kids on it on a on a on a frequent basis moving into the near future by Maury but see the thing is it’s now they’re getting to an age you know like Locke just he just made a cameo and a Julian Smith video and so now so I start questioning the whole thing because I’m like this is he Knight thinks he’s an actor that’s not cool actors actor kids or punks you know any I need to I need to roll this back a little bit dangerous but it’s too late now party stir the coffee I got how many how much time should we protect for some pictures 12:07 two more questions ten more questions which we already have here I’ve got one okay go for it and ask yours first how do you come up with the topics for GMM great question just you know past our 400th episode when you go back to the early days of the the show that sort of came before good mythical morning which was good morning Chia link in which we did back in North Carolina it was very simply what are we talking about on our way to work and how can we okay like we would start talking to each other we got to the office and then we would be like okay hold that list let’s just talk about this conversation so it was just very much like what are we talking about that morning then as we came up with good mythical morning we very soon found out that you were going to run out of stuff to talk about if that’s all you do and we also used a bunch of personal stories and then we realize we’ve told a lot of our stories so if with something really interesting didn’t happen to one of us this week then we probably won’t have one so we have updated our process link once you tell them how it works now I just think it’s top secret okay all right don’t tell them I mean you can tell don’t answer the question so we actually have writers now we have em by that I mean they pitch ideas to us and they oh this would be a good idea for you guys to talk about this would be a good idea to talk to talk about Jason comes up with ideas too we come up with ideas and it but it’s it’s just an idea right yeah yeah yeah it’s an idea and we’re like yeah that okay we can have a conversation about that we because of course we don’t write the episode I mean I think it’s pretty obvious that we just kind of spew whatever it is given some very loose outline we have in our mind mine’s to share with you in like a 10 minute chunk so that’s that’s that’s how writers are involved watch what’s a good topic yeah they were high pitched topics last question who was more popular in school though uh so so we should do another countdown and answer question three two one Courtney that’s right meaning the female version of me was really popular and I was good Wow so when was the change Rhett um I would say that we were we were both the gender – pretty well-known for different things uh I’m not going to say all the things that you were known for like this – what I don’t even know what you were very – like I think you’re I’m not gonna say the things you were known I think you were most well known for that you’d say it for that year that you made those really mal informed speeches to the entire school alone that when you were running for I mean that was when you had all 1,000 students there listening to you and you said some things that were embarrassing potentially inappropriate yeah and I think you live with that I never told you that that’s what most people would talk to me about a guy who gave this your friend was late remember two years ago really embarrassed info and I think I’m still riding that wave today it’s kind of a yeah right I mean but you now you found a way to channel that trait into comedy and I’m really appreciated link I’m glad that you’re hearing that you say things that don’t make sense and sometimes embarrass both of us and I would say that rat you are most popular for being the friend of that guy Oh that’s true I’m just but I think you’re great because of that mm-hmm and basketball and being tall yeah I play basketball and you know I don’t do it anymore I hurt myself now all right let’s let’s uh let’s meet you guys yeah
