- Time to solve the mystery
of how much money we spent on mystery boxes.
- Let's talk about that.
(cheerful music)
Good Mythical Morning.
- You know, mystery boxes are so fun to open,
you never know what weird stuff you're gonna get,
but, it's tough being the
Mystery Boxing Champion of the World.
It is a heavy burden.
- So you're saying the ability
of being able to guess the worth of a mystery box
has really been weighing on ya, huh?
- No, I'm saying my belt is very heavy.
I mean, look at this thing, it's like gold plated,
I think that's steel.
- Yeah, I think it is as well, Link.
- It's so heavy.
But I can keep it.
It's time for "Contents Confidential,
the Mystery Box Challenge."
- Welcome to the bing ballroom zone.
All right, the Mythical crew
has purchased four different mystery boxes
of different prices from the internet,
and each contestant will win a box,
but only one will emerge victorious
with the lowest bid to actual cost of box ratio.
- And that feels great, to emerge victorious.
I can just tell you guys that.
- Don't look at me when you say that.
- I'm surprised you can even keep your shoulders even
with that heavy belt. - I know.
Yep.
- Okay, now you can see,
Stevie is still keeping my seat warm
as I host over here,
and if you look to my left,
you'll see the lovely David Hill has now been replaced
by the lovely Davin Hill.
And I'm gonna go on record
and say I don't know how I feel about this.
- I'm trying to be as tall as him.
- I mean, you have quite the shoes to fill.
Have you ever watched David Hill
move his hands in this position?
- No, I'm trying to move my hands as much as I can.
He's got big shoes.
- Well, why did this happen?
You wanted a box.
- David really wants to play.
- I'm trying to win the prize.
- All right, whatever.
- Okay, and I also heard you're going by
The Greatest Mythical Showman?
- Yeah. - Explain that.
- David Hill just gave me that title,
and I have to live up to that, I guess, now.
(Stevie laughs) (crew chuckles)
- Okay, as you can see,
we do have David Hill as a contestant this time,
welcome back our champion, Link,
and welcome, for the first time playing this game, Gwynedd.
(crew applauds)
All right, Davin. All right, Davin.
Show us our first mystery box.
- Here it is, hope I don't fumble it.
Ooh.
(laughter)
- Oh, I mean...
What are the chances? - I'm so nervous right now.
Should I open this? Is this time?
- Here we go, yeah, go ahead and open it.
For the millennials looking for nostalgia,
or the gen Z posers
trying to impress their TikTok followers,
this 90s Y2K mystery box
from Etsy seller MagicUniqueTreasures
has all of your retro needs,
featuring a variety of items,
you'll be sure to feel the passage of time
slip through your withering fingers,
as you enjoy these collectables.
- I need more zoom. More zoom. - You need more zoom? Okay.
- In and out, in and out.
- [Stevie] Is that a book?
- [Gwynedd] "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"
- Pokemon, I see Pokemon. - What is that, a DVD?
That's not right.
- [Link] Fake blood. - [Rhett] I think it's a book.
- [Stevie] I think it's a book,
and then there's an RL Stine book, "Beach Party."
- Remember those old video games
that were like crappy and...
- Yeah.
- Okay, that's enough!
I feel like that was a little too revealing.
- I'm sorry.
- I don't think David Hill would've been that revealing.
He tends to move it around like this,
and you never get a great shot of anything.
- I just do whatever people want me to do.
- Okay, all right.
All right.
Do I hear-
- Stevie looks excited.
- Yes.
- [Rhett] $25.
- Yes.
- Stevie, $25, okay, we got Stevie with $25,
do I hear $30, do I hear $30 for this amazing Y2K,
Gwynedd $30, do I have 35? How 'bout, let's go over to 40.
- 35!
- 35, Stevie says 35, do I hear a 40, do I hear a 40,
we got 35 on Stevie, do I hear a 40?
Somebody wanna take it at 40, this is a pretty nice box.
- 40.
- 40 from Link, okay, we wanna go to 45?
David Hill, you ain't said nothing, okay,
here we go, we wanna go to 45?
You just waiting on it? Okay, so we got Link at 40.
You remember, you were alive during this time.
I think everyone here was alive during this time.
I don't know, you were probably the oldest,
so maybe it means the most to you.
So Link is currently stuck at 45.
- It's very trendy.
- Wait, you're trying to sell it to us, now?
Is that...?
- I don't know, Link's breaking the rules.
It's at 45 for Linkster.
The champion.
Don't forget, he's the champion,
that's a pretty low bet, and there's a book in there.
- [Gwynedd] I know it had books.
- It had books, it had buttons, it had a little game.
- I think that little game in and of itself...
- That's at least a $45 game.
- Okay. - I'm holding.
- That's a good reasoning,
but I'm not falling for it.
- Link is stuck at 45, and we are saying going once,
going twice, and sold to the defending champion,
the Y2K box for $45.
Link, take a look at your box. Enjoy its contents.
- I don't feel too happy about this,
I was trying to jack up the price.
This right here is my only hope.
- What is, it's "The Shadow"?
- [Link] What else do we have in here?
Oh, there's a lot of stuff. - There's a Casper VHS!
- It's a V freaking HS!
Casper.
- I love Casper!
- RL Stine, the Adventures of What's Hot?
- Oh, gosh.
- [Stevie] Oh, man, I want it.
- "Double Dare," the book!
- Oh, gosh.
- What?
Oh, gosh.
Y'all are gon' be hurting.
"90210," the DVD series.
This is all of six discs from season one.
- Now, do we have to include the cost
that you're gonna have to pay
for the appliances to enjoy all this?
'Cause that's going to be difficult.
- The heck is this?
A Ronald McDonald Tamagotchi.
- These are good.
This is good!
- I think you scored, man.
- You guys were being afraid. - I think you scored!
- Yeah, I think you might've,
the Tamagotchi seems good. - An unopened Nintendo Power.
- [Rhett] Oh, that alone's $100.
- I subscribed to this back in the day!
- Pogs. - Pogs.
- All right, let's take a look at our second mystery box.
Don't fumble this one.
- I hope not, this one's a bigger one.
- Look at that, oh,
that was a clean delivery. - Where's the theatrics?
- All right.
Yeah, there you go.
- [Link] Give him some pointers.
- Come on, coach.
- It's like a traffic cop with those things.
- This box contains 10 random returned
and unopened Amazon packages.
Hohoh, I'm excited.
According to the Etsy seller, KWeatherShop,
or KWleatherShop,
so maybe there's leather in there, I don't know,
these packages contain anything from kitchen items,
pet items, household items,
toys, beauty items, kid items,
and so much more.
Basically, stuff you get on Amazon.
10 packages.
- You're talking about just items.
- Just items, yeah, I believe this is,
you remember back in the middle of the pandemic
when somebody ransacked a train in LA
and they took all the packages?
I believe this was gathered from that.
This is like mystery upon mystery,
just think about it,
this is like 10 mysteries within another mystery.
- Mkay.
- Do I hear $25?
David Hill out of the gate!
He loves the mystery, I knew it!
David Hill says 25, he wants that mystery,
he wants 10 mysteries, do I hear a 30, $30,
anything could be in there, Gwynedd,
anything could be in there, Stevie.
- Yeah, Gwynedd.
- Ugh.
(crew chuckles)
$30.
- $30!
I don't know why I already hit the gavel, I'm sorry.
I'm an amateur.
I was so excited when David Hill said,
okay, Gwynedd says 30, she's gone 30,
she feels so good about opening every single,
oh, 35 from David Hill, okay, we're still-
- How many boxes are in there?
- 10!
- There's 10 freaking things.
- Do you think each one is worth $3.50?
No way, Jose! - It could be real trash,
we just don't know.
- [Stevie] That's true.
- How much are the envelopes worth?
- At least a dollar apiece.
Do I hear a 35?
I mean he's gonna get a steal,
you're gonna just hand the game to David Hill?
- Oh, we're at 35, or-
- We're at 30.
- Oh.
No, we're at 35.
- [Rhett] We're at 35. See, I'm an amateur.
- [Stevie] It's fine, you're doing great, it's fine.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- David is at 35. - Don't give it to him
for 35, guys.
- I know, Gwynedd.
- [Rhett] Stevie, what is wrong with you, what do you want?
- I just, I have,
no thank you.
- I thought you've been taking a lot of chances lately,
I mean look at the bangs.
- I know.
- I feel like they're just so vague,
like it was like, what, kitchen items, or...
- It could be anything.
- This fear-based non-bidding is really getting me down.
- We're really gonna let David Hill
just walk right outta here
with this amazing 10 mystery box for $35?
- Don't do it, guys. - He likes it.
- Going once, going twice, and sold to Mr. David Hill.
- Bring it to me with pizzazz.
- [Rhett] Pizzazz, get some pizzazz in there.
- Quickness.
- Okay.
That was a little shimmy, there was a little shimmy there.
- See, so let's...
- [Rhett] We gotta open all 10.
- [Link] Can we help you? - [Stevie] Yeah, let's help.
This is the best part. - Oh, wireless headset.
- Wireless headset?
- Universal magnetic car mount?
- Now, Link, I do wanna clarify,
it's not what the combined worth of these items is,
it's actually what we paid for this mystery box.
So the person who sold the mystery box,
it could've been a mystery to them as well.
What is that, Link?
- French butter keeper.
- [Rhett] Oh! I love those!
That's the one with the water in there!
- Sorry, I just broke it.
- Oh, no.
- Did you just break it, or was it broken?
- I broke it.
I broke your French
butter keeper. - Take it off of his box.
- You know what?
- [Rhett] I think you can fix it with glue.
- He's demanding one of your items for what you've done.
- All right, now we're gonna bring up boxes three and four,
but before we see those,
wanna remind you, you remember those things we used to do
called Song Biscuits
when we would sit down and write a song,
just off the top of our heads based on your suggestions?
Well we are doing a livestream,
yes, our last quarterly livestream of the year
is gonna be a Song Biscuits livestream
for the Mythical Society.
Now, that is today, at five PM Eastern, two PM Pacific,
available for third degree, so go over there
and get your third degree membership
and show up for the livestream, let's have a ball.
- Let's write some songs together.
- All right.
Let's see that box.
The crystal mystery box
is a collection of intuitively selected crystals
from Etsy seller HaxanHealingStones.
The seller specifically states
that they focus on quality crystals over quantity.
Okay?
These are quality crystals, y'all, intuitively chosen.
- And they actually work?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, of course. They were intuitively chosen.
- 25!
- Oh, I know you're into crystals.
Stevie, out of the gate with 25, Gwynedd,
what do you think about crystals?
- I actually don't have very many thoughts about crystals.
I live in Los Angeles,
I should have thoughts about crystals,
I just kind of don't.
- You know what? This is your chance, get in on it.
- No, I know. - Can they affect
your existence, or are they paperweights?
I don't know. - I mean,
I guess we have to find out, 'cause I'm going with $35.
- Oh, she goes up to 35, jumping up by 10,
Stevie, don't let that happen.
- They charge a lot of money for crystals.
- I know.
45.
- [Rhett] 45, woo!
$10 jump. - $50!
- $50, I don't even have to, I might as well not be here,
they're just bidding
against each other. - I'm going $60.
- Whoa!
- I know! I know. - Yeah, you know.
I mean those are some beautiful crystals.
Very intuitively chosen.
60, do I hear 65? - 65.
- 65 for Gwynedd, oh, this is happening.
Are we going 70?
Remember-
- [Stevie] We're going-
- Before you make this bid,
what I want you to remember
is that the person who doesn't win this,
whatever your last bid was,
you automatically pay for box number four,
which we have no idea what is in box number four.
Not any idea whatsoever.
- 70.
(Rhett guffaws)
- "70."
Stevie with a strong 70.
- Gwynedd, this is like buying a box full of psychics.
- Pretty dicey.
Okay, I know, this could change my life.
- It could. There's a lot of energy in there.
Could be 75.
- 75.
- [Rhett] 75, ooh. - Ooh, that's a cusp.
That is a cusp number.
- Psychologically, that feels like a...
- 85.
- Really? - Link...
- Maybe 90.
- Do I hear, we're at 75, do I hear an 80?
Do I hear an 80? 80, 85?
- I will dig 80.
- I wanna go 80.
And do I hear 85 from Gwynedd,
or is this where you just say "No more!"
- I think I have to stick with it, I'm gonna go 85.
- 85! Crystals, we love crystals!
- Oh my gosh.
This is, here's the dilemma I'm in.
I'm scared of the box number four.
- Right.
- Yeah. Okay, I'm gonna go 90.
I'm gonna go 90.
- Now it's getting personal!
- Oh my god.
This is, I actually have to take my sweatshirt off.
I am sweating.
Okay.
I'm going 90.
- [Rhett] Oh my goodness. - Oh wait, 95?
- Yeah. - 95, yes.
Yes, 'cause 90 would be what Stevie said.
- This has gotten absurd.
- 95, do I hear 100?
You gonna go triple digits?
Are you gonna go triple digits today, Stevie?
- I have a bad feeling I've lost,
I just have a bad feeling I've lost either way.
So, how much do I wanna lose?
I'll go 100.
(Rhett guffaws)
- Loose cannons.
- 105.
- Oh gosh, all right, guys,
at some point we're gonna have to wrap this up.
(laughs)
- Okay, I'm good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Is that the producer in you, knowing we need to move on,
or is that the contestant?
- And then we need to move on.
- Oh my god.
- Yeah, yeah. - Gwynedd's at 105.
Going once?
Going twice. And sold. - This is psychotic.
Yay!
- Let's see those paperweights.
- All right, Gwynedd, lemme tell you what you got here.
You've got druzy agate tower, sodalite tower,
flashy blue apatite sphere, flashy black moonstone sphere,
clear quartz Vogel, high grade rhodonite palm,
triple A grade smoky citrine tower,
lavender fluorite mushroom,
moss agate DT, spirit quartz cluster,
carnelian sphere,
rutilated quartz lens, hematoid arthritis.
No. Hematoid palm.
Shungite pyramid, black tourmaline chunk,
moss agate tumble, and sodalite tumble.
- Wow.
- What's this one?
- Stevie, you automatically,
for whatever your last bid was, which was $100,
you automatically get box four, let's see what you got.
- I'm feeling not great about it, I gotta say.
- I don't know about this, Stevie, because listen.
No, no, no, no!
Hey, this is the mystery,
the mega mystery dog mom box.
- The squeaker doesn't even...
- [Rhett] You're a dog mom! (toy squeaks)
- Yeah, but like, $100?
The bangs.
- Ooh, cute.
- "The bangs."
- [Gwynedd] Oh, wow.
You're gonna get a lot of use out of that.
- A dog garterbelt.
- I had a bad feeling, it's continuing.
- Is there a tee shirt in there? What is that?
Oh, look at that, a tee shirt can be worth $30.
- You know I love me a shallow v neck.
- Oh, yeah. With some moisture wicking material.
- Stevie, if you don't wear that tomorrow,
we'll all be disappointed.
- We got a
dog bar? - Protein bar?
- And a journal to keep up with your dog's thoughts.
- Yeah, this box sucks. - A single dog biscuit.
- Yeah. - That must be...
- Oh, you got some no-show socks.
- Okay, I've done horribly, we know that.
- $100 for that.
- I messed up this time. - Oh, wow.
David Hill is very amused.
All right, let's find out who won.
And you know what,
let's just start with our worst loser first.
- You mean Stevie?
Obviously.
- We paid $85 for box number four.
Stevie, you paid $100, that means you lost $15.
- That was $85? - Oh my gosh,
what an outrage!
$85?
- For just like loose socks and box.
Incredible.
- You lost $15.
- I think we all lost, by paying that much for this box.
- Okay, our next to last loser,
we paid $67 for
box number two.
David Hill, you paid $35, meaning you gained $32.
- That ain't bad, though.
- That's good.
- Yes, if you lose
I would like you to slowly lower your face.
- All right, Gwynedd.
There's no way you beat me, but...
- I don't think so. - Maybe, maybe.
- We paid
$150 for
box number one.
Link, you paid $45, meaning you gained $105, but,
for box number three we paid $333.33!
Gwynedd, you paid $105, meaning you gained $228.33,
and you are our Mystery Box Champion of the World!
Link!
- It's the crystals!
- Give the belt up, Link!
Give that belt up!
- We paid $330?
- Thank you very much.
- It's heavy, be careful.
(crew chuckles)
- Wow. - Crystals be expensive.
- I still have a piece of it.
- Oh, yeah, it's well-made.
You do not get to keep,
you have to give that portion of the belt to Gwynedd.
- You also get this hat.
- Thank you!
- All right, hey, Gwynedd, she's new to the game,
and she's taking home the belt.
All right, thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell,
now y'all say "You know what time it is."
- [Link, Stevie, And David] You know what time it is.
- Hi. I'm Kaitlyn, from Hampton Roads, Virginia.
My husband is currently deployed with the US Navy,
and I just got done decorating and filling
his GMM themed care package.
And it's time to spin the Wheel of Mythicality.
- I love that.
