- Today we Guess That Sausage! - Let's do that.
♪ (theme music) ♪
Good Mythical Morning!
Thank you for making us a part of your daily routine.
We taste things so you won't have to. Occasionally.
Including today, where our whole place smells like sausage!
Yes, it does. But we don't know what kind of sausage it is.
Why are we doing this now? Well, it's October, and that means Oktoberfest!
Here's a little history lesson. Oktoberfest just means that
there was a king who married a princess back in 1810
in music, nope, in Munich, Germany.
He invited everybody to celebrate, and they did. And, ever since then,
they've celebrated there and elsewhere in the world.
Here is America, basically, it just means,
"Let's get together, drink beer, and eat sausage."
We're going to do the sausage part, today, to celebrate Oktoberfest.
This is a very simple game, where we have six --
Count 'em-- six sausages, and we are going to...
I don't know what these sausages are, and I'm not excited about it!
- Let's just do it. - We're going to put these blindfolds on--
- I like sausage in general. - You're not gonna like these.
But, something tells me that I'm not going to like these sausages.
If the smell is any indication, these are not going to be very good to taste.
But, here's how it works.
In each round we have to guess what kind of animal it is--"aminal"--
whether that's mammal, reptile, amphibian or bird,
and then we have to guess the species.
You get a point for getting the type of animal,
and then you get a point for getting the species,
- which we think will be very difficult. So... - Now it's time to play:
(Link) Guess That Sausage!
Every sausage will be brought in on the patented Sausage Plank,
which is a lot like the Pizza Plank, but, it's sold separately.
Well, it's the same thing.
- It's just got a sausage on it. - It's sold separately.
- All right, are you all masked? - I am masked. I can't see a thing.
But, my taste buds are ready for sausage!
- (boxing ring bell dings) - (Rhett) Round One! (yak brays)
Bring in the sausages on the Sausage Planks.
Oh, I think it fell on the ground. Do you want me to find it with my hand?
(Alex) Nope.
- Way to go, Alex! - (crew laughs)
- Okay, I just caught it. - Hm. It's cooled off a little bit.
Hm. Slim Jim-esque...
For all the odd rounds, I'll guess first,
and then for the even rounds, you can guess first.
I'm going to say, based on taste, that this is a mammal.
Mmm hmm. Definitely four legs.
And, I'm going to say that this is a buffalo.
- Oh, you're going to say buffalo? - Mm hm. Yep.
It tastes like a buffalo to me. (makes smacking noise)
- What say you, friend? - Honestly, I was thinking this.
- I'm not saying this because you said it. - Oh, come on.
I'm going to be more correct. I'm going to say it's a bison.
- This is a bison sausage. - Well, that's the same thing.
Technically, they don't make sausage out of buffalo.
- (crew member) All right, ready for the answer? - Yeah.
- Slim Jims! - (crew member) It was a yak.
- (buzzer sounds) - (crew member) So you both get
- one point for guessing mammal. - Hey, but listen, man.
That's a furry, domesticated livestock! We should celebrate. High tens!
(crew laughs)
You weren't going high enough for high tens.
- Yeah. I went medium tens. - Wow, guys. Okay.
You started with a yak? Where are we going from here, guys?
- (boxing ring bell dings) - (Rhett) Round Two!
(camel bleats)
Something else that you're now reading that we still don't know what it is,
and we're going to have to taste it, and hopefully not let our minds
get the best of us and make us want to yak!
- Oh! Dang it, Alex! - (crew laughs)
Can you-- Warn a guy! Is there another piece?
He tried to shove it up my nose. Like, I just went forward--
I got a pro over here. Boy, I've already eaten this.
- (Alex) Coming up! - Okay.
- (Alex) His mouth is little. - (crew laughs)
That's not bad. (makes smacking noise)
This is salty. Mm. Salty. That's a clue.
This is a fish of some sort.
Is that your guess?
No. I think this could be an ocean creature.
There's a lot of grain and spiciness happening here.
- Something's being covered up. - (crew laughs)
All right, I'm going to pull back from seafood, 'cause it ain't seafood.
I'm going for snake. I think this a reptilian snake.
Okay, if you get snake right, we'll count it.
I'm going to say that this is a bird.
But, it tastes like this bird ain't got no more flight in it.
This bird has lost its ability to fly. It is an ostrich!
- (crew member) Well, it is a mammal. - (buzzer sounds)
- Oh. - (crew member) And it is a camel!
- Oh! - Argh!
I just ate camel!
- Camel and ostrich are very similar! - (crew laughs)
Camels aren't made to be eaten. They're made to carry stuff
- that's to be eaten! - It did taste like a water hump
- a little bit, now that I think about it. - That's what I was tasting!
Yeah. It tasted like the desert.
- (boxing ring bell dings) - (Rhett) Round Three! (alpaca peeps)
Oh. That's a big one! Uh oh.
This one's got some granular stuff in it. Woo, this is hearty!
Hearty! This is a heart?
- (makes smacking noise) - It's... Boy, it's...
- it's dense. - That's my technique.
You can steal it if you want. You go like: (makes smacking noise).
(making smacking noises) Come here to me, sausage!
Tell me what you are, sausage. (makes smacking noise) Come on!
It starts tasting a little bit different. (makes smacking noise)
This is a mammal. (makes smacking noise)
I tell you, I think this thing can fly.
This thing ain't never flown, man, unless it was transported in an airplane.
- I'm going to say this is a gazelle. - I think...
- It has horns. I taste the hornage. - (crew laughs)
Hm. Antelope. This is an (Spanish accent) ant-a-lope-ay.
Okay. So, are you saying mammal? That's your first part.
Yeah, I'm saying bird. No! Mammal.
- (crew member) Okay. You are correct. - Hold on! Oh!
- (crew member) It is a mammal. - Yes! And it's an antelope?
- (crew member) It is an alpaca. - (buzzer sounds)
Oh! I can taste the weight that it was carrying.
So, it's a furry camel.
Wow. Y'all got some weird stuff!
- (boxing ring bell dings) - (Rhett) Round Four! (pig oinks)
All right. Here we go.
- Woo! - (shivering)
I've tasted this before. Ugh. There's something that keeps bursting out.
There is a flavor that keeps bursting through,
as well as something physically that keeps bursting through.
This is an animal that should only be eaten in sausage form.
- This is, um... - (Rhett makes smacking noises)
Whoa. That really breaks it up.
I'm really sensing islands. I know what this is.
I'm talking trip to the Galapagos. This is reptilian.
This is a reptilian tortoise.
- This is tortoise, man. - (Rhett laughs)
This is like giant, frigging Galapagos tortoise.
I was going to say this is reptilian also. But this is not a tortoise.
- This is a turtle. - What?
(crew member) Well, I'm sad to say you are both incorrect.
- (crew member) It is a mammal, kind of. - (buzzer sounds)
(crew member) It is pork blood sausage. Emphasis on the blood.
- Ew! - That's Round Four?
(retches)
- (boxing ring bell dings) - (Rhett) Round Five! (snake hisses)
- How many rounds are there? - Six.
(Link) Really?
(makes smacking noises) A little slower on that one.
This one is gelatinous.
But, it's lots of layers. (makes smacking noise)
- This one tastes like pizza. - (crew laughs)
- It does, doesn't it? - Yeah!
It tastes like a pizza combo.
Boy. I need to swallow this before you tell me what it is.
- Go ahead and guess. - Well, it's gotta be...
I know how you guys think. You like to escalate things.
So, it's got to be crazier than blood sausage.
I want to say it feels, it tastes like a bird.
Nope. Nope. You're right. It does fly.
But this is a bat. This is a mammal.
This is a freaking vampire bat.
This is the opportunity for one of us to pull away.
I didn't tell you that the consequence is eating a horrible sausage,
the whole sausage at the end.
So, the pressure's on. (makes smacking noise)
Wow. I really want to say that--
I'm going to go with reptile again.
I feel like there's something that's got to be a reptile.
And, I'm going to say that this one, friend, is the snake.
Rattlesnake, to be specific.
- This is a mammal. It is a bat. - (crew laughs)
What are you laughing at?
- (crew member) Well, it is a reptile. - Oh, snap!
(crew member) It is not a rattlesnake, but it is a python.
- Yah ho! One and a half points! - (crew member) one and half points for Rhett.
Yeah! (rapping) Guess what! I tasted a python!
- (boxing ring bell dings) - (Rhett) Round Six! (bull snorts)
- Uh. Gosh, talk about squishy. - (crew giggles)
Uh. (makes smacking noises) Come here, little boy!
Come here. Tell me what you are!
Ew!
Ugh! I don't know what it is, but I'm afraid that it's nuts.
You're afraid that it's nuts?
I think this is a cow's-- I think-- Oh no, guys.
- I think this-- - You think this is a testicle?
I think this is a cattle testicle.
It tastes like it's hanging down there.
- (crew laughs) - You know what?
You've never been more right about anything in your life.
You can't copy me! No!
I took a stand. You can't copy me.
All right. Give your final. You better guess something else.
Oh, gosh. Uh--
Come on, man.
I mean, just so that we make this interesting.
Because I think you're right, that it is a testicle.
I'm going to say that it is an octopus testicle.
- What? Okay. - I'm just kidding.
I'm going to say that it's a mammal.
But I'm going to say that it's Mountain Oyster.
It's a pig testicle.
(crew member) Okay, so we have mammal, cattle testicle from Link.
(crew member) And mammal, pig testicle from Rhett.
(crew member) Which means that Link has gotten it correct!
- (bell rings) - Yahhhh!
- (crew member) Bringing the total scores... - (retching)
Ew! I just saw it! It looked like... It did look like an oyster!
(crew member) Rhett, with 4.5. Link with four.
I knew you guys were going to... That's not a sausage!
I never saw such cheating!
But, you still have to eat more testicle, because you lost.
- I lost? - (Rhett) Yeah.
- I just won! - I got mammal correct.
- (groans) - (crew laughs and claps)
What? All right. Bring it out here.
- Let me see that thing. - I mean, you're not gonna
to get it down. I can't get it down.
(spits) Gosh!
- Again, tasting things-- - You know what? Okay, here's the deal.
- So you don't have to. - Link will eat the testicles
in Good Mythical More
and so will some of the crew, because this was their idea.

I hate that I have to sit next to you.

No.
