What are you doing? Oh, hey Rhett! I would like to introduce you to, my very own cocoon. My very own cocoon, I would like for you to meet my friend, Rhett. You mean like a cocoon for caterpillars? Yeah! Caterpillars invented it, but this one’s for me. I feel like I’m missing something. Well, you know that a caterpillar goes into a cocoon and then emerges as a beautiful butterfly. Right? Well, I’m gonna jump into my cocoon and then 14 to 21 days later, I’m gonna emerge a beautiful new creature. Yeah but, metamorphosis is like a part of the caterpillar life cycle. It’s like built into their DNA. You’re a human man. Just because you go inside of a cocoon, you can’t expect that you’re going to emerge a beautiful new creature. Well you can’t expect that I want. I mean I can metamorphosis. That’s, uh, scientifically and grammatically incorrect. How do you know that? You ever seen anybody cocoonify? No one has cocoonified because it doesn’t make any sense. And by the way, is this thing even safe? I mean, you got air holes in there? This is dangerous. You can suffocate and die. Well, Mr. Neil Armstrong, I just want to let you know that I don’t think you should go to the moon, humans don’t know how to breathe up there. You can suffocate and die. You’re comparing your cocoon plan to the moon landing? Excuse me, Mr. Magellan, I don’t think it’s a great idea to sail around the world because you’re just gonna go off the edge and die. It’s a bit too risky. Now you’re comparing your cocoon plan and yourself to the esteemed Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan, the disrespect is astounding. Well, maybe don’t astoundingly disrespect my cocoon plan. Okay, you know what, don’t let me get in your way. Do whatever you want to! You’ll see when I emerge from this thing, I’ll be a beautiful new creature, probably with wings, and you’ll still be boring old Rhett. Well, don’t say I didn’t warn you about how dangerous this is. Ha ha ha, well, trust me, that detail will not be lost to the anals of history. Annals! And I’ll be sure that everybody knows what a coward you were about this whole thing. Good! Great! Awesome! Fabulous! Fine! Fantastic! Now help put me in this thing. Welcome to Ear Biscuits, the podcast where two lifelong friends talk about life for a long time. Good Mythical Morning. Um… Link’s still in this thing, so uh, I’m gonna be running the shift today. So you got any plans for the weekend? Okay, well, you’ve had more than enough time to go through your metamorphosis and turn into a beautiful creature. Let’s open this thing up. Link? Oh no! Link! My best friend… is dead. Hah! I told you this thing was dangerous. You can’t stay inside a cocoon for a couple of weeks. You’re not a freaking caterpillar. Check off another win in the Rhett column because I have been proven right, once again. Oh wow! He actually did grow wings, became a freaking butterfly. That’s pretty cool! You see, I don’t have a problem admitting when I’m wrong.
