- Can an ax lead you to extreme snacks?
- Let's talk about that.
(upbeat music)
Good Mythical Morning.
- We are back for more extreme snack filled action,
and I only hope that this time around,
I can make this puppy go where I want it to go.
- Yeah, last time you had better
guesses than me but still lost.
- (laughs) Eh.
- Hey man, but listen-
- Eh.
- You got another chance.
But I gotta say, I am very excited
about the opportunity to come up
with a third line to put under Rhett McLaughlin
if I win this gold log- - Not gonna happen.
- For a third time. - Not gonna happen.
- We'll see about that.
It's time for Axe-Treme Sn-Axe Extreme Edition, part three.
- Welcome back to ax alley.
- Okay, the first time we played this game,
we had two snacks, and that wasn't enough,
so then we went to four snacks.
We were like, that's too many.
So now we're Goldilocksing it with three snacks.
It's all about equilibrium here on this show.
Okay, and one of these snacks is going to be,
or has been marketed as extreme,
and the other two are just regular old snacks.
- Yeah, we're gonna face off by throwing our axes
at the target that we think represents
the extreme snack, and if we land
on the correct target,
we get the amount of points that we landed on.
But if we land on the wrong target,
we lose that amount of points,
and if we land in the neutral zone,
we suffer the two point penalty
and get just one re-throw.
- One re-throw.
- One urethrow. - Also.
Okay.
We've also, I've only got one of those.
We've also added some extreme obstacles,
just like last time.
We each had the opportunity to use
one of two possible obstacles
to obstruct our opponent's throw,
whenever we so choose.
Those obstacles represented
via Chase the Lumbersnack
are a case of meaty disco fever,
whatever that means, or a curtain
of adorable chatterboxes, whatever that means.
If the obstacle successfully prevent
the ax from reaching the board,
that's a two point penalty.
- All right, let's see if I can finally
pry that golden log out of Rhett's hands today.
- Get your hands off my log.
- And we have snacks!
- Okay, this looks like some sort of tortilla chip,
maybe a Doritoish kind of thing.
- Oh look, I got two for one.
- I mean-
- That's not a Dorito.
- It's not a Dorito, but it is pretty intense.
Hold on, that might be a Dorito.
No, it's not a Dorito.
Is it a Dorito? - Is it a Dorito?
I don't know, it certainly is really spicy.
- Doritos, whoa.
- Crap.
- That's hot, y'all.
- Crap, it keeps getting hotter.
- Okay, that's extremely hot.
- Shoot.
- Man.
Put one of these chickpeas in your mouth.
What is that?
- [Link] Nasty.
- Curry?
- Oh gosh.
- Is it extreme?
It's extremely bad after that.
- It tastes horrible and sweet compared to that.
- This is just a Flamin Hot Cheeto, right?
- Right, yeah.
Flamin is hot-
- It's not extreme.
- Flamin Hot is not extreme.
- Not extreme.
I don't really know how we determine that but-
- This is the best tasting thing on the logs today,
so if you won last time, you need to be throwing first.
- Would you like me to use my ax or your ax?
- I don't care, man, but yours.
- Okay, I don't wanna overthink this, Neil.
I think that the first one, because it got us.
It got us both real nice.
- It's still getting me.
- I think it's extreme, so that's where I'm going.
- Going for the blue six.
Whoa!
- Okay, four.
- Right, you've landed on four.
See, here's the dealio,
just because something is the most spiciest tasting,
doesn't mean that it's the most spiciestly marketed.
- You're right.
- But crap, that is extreme, man.
- [Rhett] Very hot.
Why am I eating another one? - And you've left
the door open for me to get a bullseye on the blue.
- I have.
- So I think I'm gonna go for that.
- But maybe I left that door open on purpose,
ever think about that?
- I am agreeing.
Going for the blue log, number six.
Oh yeah! - Whoa!
(Link laughing) (Rhett applauding)
- Come on, Stevie.
I think I did get it, yes I did.
- Yeah, you're in it, you're in it,
you're in it to win it.
- [Stevie] One of these snacks promises
to bring you twice as much Flamin Hot flavor.
Yes, that's the Xxtra Flamin Hot Cheetos
on the green podium.
On the blue podium,
we have Paqui Haunted Ghost Pepper Chips,
and on the red podium,
we have Hapi Snacks Spicy Sriracha Peas.
- Okay, let me take. (Link yelling)
Let me just take this opportunity because-
- Dang it!
- I'm anticipating in the comments,
people are like, how what just happened there
is that Link and Rhett both guessed the same thing.
They were both wrong, but Link had a better throw,
but it was the wrong answer,
so being more right equals more wrong.
Hey, the universe balances itself, okay?
- That means I should win occasionally.
(Rhett laughing)
- More snacks.
Oh yes and-
- Chilly Willys.
- We get some relief here.
- We called them Chilly Willys.
Y'all didn't really open these.
- Kind of open just a corner here.
- I mean, what do you want me to suck on the end?
That's not how you open no Chilly Willy.
You take scissors-
- Oh, that is good.
- That's extremely flavorful.
- Look at that, just a little piece is coming out.
- Is that Jolly Rancher flavor?
- I would just call it extremely sour.
- These are raisins.
How can you make raisins extreme?
- Well, they've got some sort of red powder on 'em,
which I think is sour.
- Those are good.
- Mm-hmm.
Better than normal grapes.
- You know, each one of these was a grape.
- Isn't that amazing?
- So amazing to think how many
grapes that would be.
- I know, thanks for pointing that out.
- Did you know that prunes were plums?
- Yeah.
This is the type of thing you tell your kids,
and that's the response you want.
Wow dad, you're amazingly knowledgeable.
Here's another Chilly Willy,
not nearly as sour.
- It's got some sourness to it.
- It's fruitier.
- Is it just a regular?
No, it's sour. - I'm losing.
You've gotta keep going first.
- I know where to begin.
You want me to use your ax or my ax?
- Use your ax, 'cause mine seemed
to be more accurate and wrong.
- This is a tough one, Neil.
I kind of feel like it's a split
between the red and the blue for me.
But I don't need to be a sucker
and just go for one.
I feel like I need to make a strong choice.
I think it's the raisins, man.
- Oh!
- [Rhett] I'm a little high today.
- Are you?
(producers laughing)
There's always speculation,
but I just thought that's 'cause you're.
All right, see, last time we were here-
- I just ate six grapes.
Let me-
- I know man.
- Boom, six grapes.
- Because they're smaller and wrinklier,
you can eat that many more at once.
I don't wanna make the same mistake
I made last time, which was agreeing with you,
which I do agree with you.
- Wow, I've left the bullseye open for you again.
- But the most extreme one is the blue Chilly Willy,
or whatever that is, but see, I agree with you.
Those are the most extreme raisins I've ever had.
- Don't fall into the trap, man.
- I feel strongly that it's the raisins,
and I'm not gonna switch it,
even though they're more extreme.
- I like the way you think, man.
- But that's what happened in the last round,
so I bet they switched it up this time,
so that the most extreme tasting thing
is the right answer this time,
and it wasn't last time.
You feel me?
- I don't understand what you're talking about,
but I've had 10 grapes while you've been talking.
(producers laughing)
- [Link] I'm going for the raisins.
(Rhett laughing)
- Oh! - And low,
we've tied on that one.
- So it doesn't really matter.
- It doesn't matter. - It's a watch.
- Who cares, Stevie? - It's a watch.
- Who even cares?
- [Stevie] One of these snacks claims
to unleash an extreme juicy, sour flavor,
and that's the Warheads Extreme Sour Freeze Pops
on the blue podium.
- You should have gone for the blue, man.
I was thinking it was the blue.
- Dang it! - When you were out there,
I was like man, he's gonna get this.
He's gonna go for the blue.
He's gonna take the lead, but he didn't.
- It's two rounds in a row.
- [Stevie] The others from left to right
are Sun-Maid Sour Raisin Strawberry Snacks,
on the red podium, and Sour Patch Kids Freezer Bars
on the green podium.
- Oh man.
- Gosh.
Before we uncloche, you may have noticed
that I'm sporting a new pin, that's right.
A new accoutrement added to the apparel,
available at Mythical.com.
We got a pin that is the Wheel of Mythicality.
- [Rhett] It spins.
- And it spins.
I feel like it's in a weird spot
for you to be doing that.
- Did it feel good?
- Mythical.com.
Let's uncloche.
- Oh man, you've got these meat sticks about to fall out.
- Those are some big meat sticks.
- What in the world is this?
- What the world is it?
- I think it's cauliflower.
- Cauliflower.
Now that's spicy, and it grows on you.
- This is a big meat stick.
I mean, it's not that big but-
- It's covered in white, oh it's mush.
- It's mealy.
- Gross.
- You're gonna hate that.
- It's like a loosely packed meat stick.
- It tastes like a Penrose sausage, remember those?
- Never had one.
- I had 'em over at my house in that weird jar.
- I thought it was a specimen.
Oh, now we got Chex Mix with some sort of-
- It's a sneaky one.
You see that, the sneaky one.
- It's supposed to be spicy, because it's red.
- Oh yeah, it is.
- Okay.
You're still going first, somehow.
- I'm gonna use my ax this time.
- Oh and you know what, I'm gonna call an audible,
and I'm gonna use the meaty disco ball thingy,
whatever that was.
Okay Rhett, time for the disco.
- I love what you've done with the place.
- If you'll notice, a few of these are actual-
- [Rhett] Meat.
- [Link] Mirror covered meatballs.
- Okay, well this is interesting,
because I think it's the Chex.
(Link groaning)
It just feels right to me.
Why are you disappointed?
Because you also think it's the Chex?
- No.
(Rhett laughing) (producers laughing)
I think it's the cauliflower,
because I mean, that stuff was really spicy.
- Really, really spicy.
But there is a disco ball in the way,
but let's just see what happens here.
(both yelling) (alarm buzzing)
Oh man, it hit the bullseye and bounced back.
- That is negative, that is negative two points.
- Negative two points.
- And you get one rethrow.
- Man, I didn't hit the ball though.
I missed all the balls.
- You didn't, but it threw off your trajectory,
so it didn't stick.
Oh!
(Rhett laughing)
If that would have hit a mirror ball,
it would have absolutely exploded.
- Yeah, I threw that very hard, okay.
All right, sorry, I was angry. (laughs)
- All right.
You picked up on my lack of sarcasm.
I do agree with you again that
that Chex Mix is the most easily marketed as extreme,
because compared to normal Chex Mix,
that's a big difference.
- But first, let's take all these balls down.
- Oh, thank you for magically
and instantaneously removing all those mirror balls.
- Anytime.
- If you are correct in going with the green,
then you are up by four points.
I think it's right, I really do,
so I've got to go for that green bullseye.
- You can go up, if you're right,
or go down if you're wrong.
- Hush!
(ax thudding) (Rhett groaning)
Little low.
But it feels good when it sinks in.
It feels like it's an extension of my body.
- But listen, you have tied it up now.
- Yes. - Regardless.
- [Stevie] In this round of buffalo flavored snacks,
only one takes it's flavor to the absolute maximum,
and that is the Chex Mix Max'd
buffalo ranch on the green podium.
The remaining snacks are Rhythm Superfoods
Crispy Buffalo Ranch Caluflower Bites on the blue podium,
and Ostrim Buffalo Wing Chicken Snack Sticks
on the red podium.
- Y'all need to firm these up, Ostrim.
- I would call this Max D, by the way.
- Okay.
- It all comes down to these.
- Oh, some waffle things.
- Oh, is this a stroopwafel?
- What is that string coming off of it?
- Mm, that is-
- That's for animals, bro.
- Is it?
- Yeah.
- Which explains why I'm kind of into it.
- If I didn't say anything,
he would have not realized this whole round
that any of this was for animals.
- Because I am realizing now that
this is not bread, this is meat.
- Why did I take such a big bite?
- It tastes like bacon.
- If I'd have looked at the fish roll up.
- Of course.
Oh my gosh.
- Hold on.
- Seriously?
I don't know if you can see that,
or if you wanna see that.
- I'm not gonna do that to the art department.
I was about to turn this into a barf bucket.
- Yeah, don't do that.
Is it a snake skin?
- I almost-
- Let's just eat it. - For surely know
that it's not.
It's just fish skin.
- Oh my gosh, it's like eating insulation.
- What kind of animal eats this?
- It's not edible.
- What kind of animal just wants
a rolled up fish skin?
Not me.
- You can't eat it.
I mean, we wanted to eat it.
Oh, here's some little pellets.
- That's a good solid taste.
- Yeah, that's nice.
Little salty, little grainy.
- Okay. - We're tied up.
- We're tied, but I went last time,
so I'm going first.
I mean, all I can say is that
those fish things have at least
some sort of spicy on them,
and they're also extremely hard to eat,
like I couldn't even get through 'em.
- But what's the point in marketing
pet food as extreme anyway?
It's like, why you wanna give your pet something extreme?
- I think it's the fish skins,
so I'm going for the six.
Now, this is risky, because we're tied,
and if I'm wrong, I could be extremely wrong,
but I haven't hit the bullseye all day,
so why not just aim for it and see what happens.
Oh, I hit it. - And of course, of course.
- Yeah, right, okay.
- All right, see, I believe you could be wrong.
This is anybody's game.
- I believe that I've still got an obstacle,
and I'd like to unleash it right now.
I can't remember what it is,
something about chatterboxes.
- Fine, I don't care.
Okay, are y'all ready for this?
- [Toy] Are y'all ready for this?
Are y'all ready for this?
- Oh, I see how it is.
You're making fun of me, huh?
Don't you make fun of me.
- [Toy] Making fun of me, huh?
- All of you guys?
- [Toy] Don't you make fun of me.
- I see how this is.
I love having my self esteem crushed
by stuffed animals, before I throw an ax.
I'm the one with the sharp thing.
- They're all just reacting to each other now.
This is never going to end.
- I'm still here guys.
- This is like when you make the prank call,
where the two pizza places call each other.
That's my favorite type of prank call.
This is the international symbol
for that type of prank call.
- All right, you thought that this crap was extreme.
It is weird.
Shut up!
- [Toy] Shut up!
- But I think that these stroopwafels here,
I mean, that's an extreme stroopwafel,
because it tastes like bacon.
- That's a very solid guess.
That is the only other acceptable option, I would think.
These are definitely not extreme.
- Being tied, if I thought that red was the answer,
I'd have to go for the 10 point,
but instead, I'm just going for the blue.
- Wow, those things are loud.
Are you distracted by the sound?
- All right, I think I have an angle
to get past this panda,
and get to the bullseye of the blue number six.
- If you're right, all you gotta do
is just hit anywhere on the blue and you win.
- Right, that's right.
(toys chattering)
(Rhett yelling)
(alarm buzzing)
- Crap. - Oh wow,
this is interesting.
This is interesting.
Negative two.
This is interesting.
- I mean, I still gotta go for the bullseye.
(producers laughing)
(toys screeching)
Yes! - Okay, all right.
- Is that a little bit?
- You're in four.
You're in four. - Okay, yeah,
I barely missed the bullseye.
- [Stevie] One of these snacks
promises to fulfill your pet ferret's
every carnivorous desire,
and that is the Marshall Ferret Extreme
Freeze Dried Treats on the red podium.
(both laughing)
The other tasty treats are Wag Chicken and Waffle
Dog Treats on the blue podium,
and Fruitables Salmon and Cranberry Cat Treats
on the green podium.
- Ferrets eat this crap?
- Boo to ferrets.
Boo to Rhett for winning that golden log one more time.
- All right, you're back where you belong, baby.
Shut up!
(toys screeching) (Link groaning)
- [Both] Thanks for subscribing
and clicking that bell.
You know what time it is.
- [Toy] You know what time it is.
- Hey, I'm Brian.
- And I'm Joe.
- And we're on top of Panorama Ridge, British Columbia.
- Doing a backpacking field taste test.
- [Both] And it's time to spin the Wheel of Mythicality.
- Don't eat all your backpacking meals at once.
- They hiked all the way up there
with all that, for our game.
You know what, I appreciate the commitment.
- I love it.
