-Today, we're gonna relaaaaaaaax. -Let's talk about that...?
♪ (theme music) ♪
-Good mythical morning! -Today a new sketch is live on the
Rhett and Link channel as part of Sketchtober, where we're putting out five--
count 'em--five sketches, one each Thursday for the entire month of October!
-Woohoo!
-So there's more to come. This week's sketch is called, "Campin'."
-I really feel like we're connecting with our ancestors. You know, like, they were
"one with nature." -They
-That's what
-(caveman voice) We nature!
♪ (drum beat) ♪
-So, head on over to the Rhett and Link channel and check it out.
-(reciting together) Patty cake, patty cake...
-(Rhett) We're... -(reciting together) ...baker's men.
-Because on Thursdays, we like to bake pies. We reach out to you on Facebook,
Tumblr, and Twitter in search of the freshest, most perfect question
ingredients. And then we take those ingredients, and we lovingly mix them
together in a bowl. We then create a doughy, delicate "answer crust," that we
fill with your question ingredients. Then we place them in the oven at
350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes, until the fully-formed answer pie is ready.
(yelling) But don't touch it just yet!
It's gotta sit on the windowsill to cool.
-Hummmmm... This week we asked you guys for
relaxation advice, and we've got some "answer pies" for y'all.
-We do! We got a question from (pronouncing with difficulty) "Dah-rah"
O'Connor, who asks... -Question mark?
-..."How do you relax with a hectic schedule?"
-(Reading together) "How do you relax with a hectic schedule?"
-All questions now in unison!
-Um, easy, easy answer to this. We both do this a lot. Um, take a
break from our hectic schedules by surfing!
-Yes! Uh-huh. -Super-relaxing, become one with
-nature in the ocean. But it's not quite that simple, -(surfer voice) California, maaan.
because there's other surfers there. -Yeah, lot's of 'em!
-And where there's people, there's stress. One time recently--you were
not there... -Yeah.
-I went to Surfrider Beach in Malibu, a very popular place.
-Thanks for not inviting me. -And there was like 80 surfers out there.
And I'm out there, stand-up paddle boarding, ok?
-(Sarcastically) It's the coolest way to surf! Standing up!
-Well, you really draw attention to yourself.
Because, well, you're standing above the water, and everybody else is
floating, waiting in line to get waves. But then, as I'm waiting in
line to get up there, I noticed, ah! One kindred spirit.
And an old man shows up on a stand-up paddle board.
-Usually old men are all on stand-up paddle boards.
-And this dude, this dude's fit, and he looks like a drill instructor with
like a crew cut. Like white hair crew cut though.
-Oh, yeah, the best! -He's like talking to people
and saying things like... -(Rough, deep voice) "Hey, man!"
-...Skipping everyone and getting to the front. -(Rough deep voice) "Hang-ten."
And, ah, so then he just starts taking waves.
But all of a sudden, I hear, um, he's yelling.
-Oh. -He's yelling at somebody, and I look,
and it is a man in the water on a long board who is just as old as he is. Like,
gray-haired dude. And he's like, (forceful voice) "You dropped in
on me! You cut me off on my wave! Don't you ever do that again!
I will SPEAR you with this thing!"
-Whoa! -And you really
board if you hit 'em with it. Trust me, I've done it by accident many times.
No, I haven't! -Not
-I've
In any circumstances. -So it was
-Except that one time. -...but it was a stressful situation
because I was really close to this guy. My kindred spirit. The rooster man,
with his chest puffed out, like, paddle-boarding around. And
he's like, "I will knock you in the head if you do that again." And
then he starts using all this colorful language that I'm not gonna repeat.
-Droppin' bombs. -You know, telling the guy what he should
do with himself and all types of stuff. -Wow.
-And it's like, I just start backing outta there because I feel guilty by
association. Like, we're not--just because we're both standing up,
and we're the people that everybody's looking at, doesn't mean that we
are in cahoots! -Right!
-And, um, but the other guy's not saying anything. I feel horrible for him.
-Yeah, mmhmm. -And then all of a sudden, outta nowhere,
he's like, he looks up at 'im, and he's like, (low, threatening voice) "I am a
Navy Seal. I will kill you with my bare hands."
-Oh gosh. -And, and part of me was like,
"This is so weird... -You were like, "I'm going to,
I'm going home." -I--I--I gotta paddle outta here!"
But the other part of me was like, "That's the most amazing thing I've
ever heard anybody say in person." -He probably didn't--he probably
just
-He probably just goes to that line. -No, then he jumped up, and he
killed the man with his bare hands. -(scoffs) Oh-ho! Really? But
he did not. But here's the question...
-He didn't, but it freaked me out. He could have.
-How does that answer Darragh's question: "How do you relax with a hectic schedule?"
-Don't go surfing! -Oh! Ok, don't go surfing!
Alright, now it's time to visit another weird website in a segment we call,
"The Internet is a Weird Place." Thanks to our friends over at Squarespace.
And today we're going to be visiting a site that requires you to do nothing.
-Oh, sounds good! DoNothingFor2Minutes-- the number 2--Minutes.com
-Let's go there now. Oh, lookit! Oceans theme.
-Hmm, very nice. Relaxing. -Do nothing for two minutes. Here's the
timer. Just relax and listen to the waves. Don't touch your mouse
or keyboard. -Well, that's the first thing I'm gonna
do. You don't tell me what to do, website! -Alright, so it just reset it.
-I'm not gonna listen to you. -Reset two minutes.
-Who are you!? Why do you have authority in my life?
-It's trying to get you to relax, Rhett. -I don't wanna relax.
-Well, y-you can do anything you want, like...
-That's two minutes! Two minutes of my life
that I could do something like-- touch the mouse again!
-Oh, but now it reset again. I mean, I'm gonna...
-What? -...I'm just gonna get on my phone.
-Oh! -It doesn't know that I'm on my phone.
-Oh, that's a good thing. -But that defeats the purpose.
This is kind of like meditation, but forced.
-Ah, well you know what? That kind of reminds me: You may remember a few weeks
ago, ah--famous wrestlers from the '90s. -(in unison) Randy and Dandy Mandy!
-Yes! -Yeah, they got that VHS series, and we
looked at the video where they... -"How to Eat Not Like a Dork!"
-"How to Not Eat Like a Dork!" You remember it!
-Yeah! -Well, you know what? Lucky for us, they have handled, or tackled, a lot of different
issues... -Like body slams. Issues.
-...including meditation. Including meditation.
-Right! -They've got a series on mediation.
-I remember it! -You do!
-We should show 'em a clip! -And we found that tape too. Here it is.

-(Link in similar voice) And I'm Dandy! -(In unison) We're the Mandy Brothers! Randy and Dandy Mandy!
-(Link/Dandy) And we're gonna teach you how to meditate not like a dork.
-The key to meditation is to clear your "mind dumpster" of
all that "thought garbage"!
-And the only way to clear your mind is to repress everything!
-Repress it hard, brother! -(Unison) Re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re!
-Don't deal with your emotions! Squish 'em into a bloody pulp!
-Get some stuff to symbolize your thoughts. I like cans!
-I like teddy bears!
-This is a thought I just had about lunch. (slapping can)
I should've ordered nachos!
-This is the regret I feel for dumping Sandy!
(Yells like a maniac) She's pretty cool, now that
I think about it.
-This is a thought I just had about half nelsons.
(Can makes unsatisfying splatting sounds on Rhett/Randy's chest)
-A half nelson is just a waste of half of a full nelson.
(laser SFX) (Rhett/Randy grunting, Link/Dandy yelling as if electrocuted)
-This is a thought I had about the way that Sandy used to push her hair back
behind her ear. (laser SFX) (Link/Dandy grunting and growling)
-Come back to me Sandy. We can piece
it together. (Starts crying) -Come on, man! Suck those tears back in.
That's pure strength fallin' outta your head holes, man!
(Link/Dandy whining pathetically) -(Rhett/Randy) It's okay.
-(Link/Dandy mournfully) Sandy! -(Rhett/Randy softer) It's gonna be
okay, man. -(Link/Dandy whining) I messed up
the bear. -Yeah, you did.
-(Link/Dandy weeping) I don't know how to fix the bear.
-(Rhett/Randy softening his voice more) We can get another bear, man.
-(Link/Dandy inconsolably) I don't want another bear! I want
-But, but...that bear has no significance. We just bought it for you
to rip it for the video. -(Link/Dandy crying again) It was special
to me! It's a special bear! (Link/Dandy moaning and crying)
-(Rhett/Randy with tough voice again) I'm Randy!
-(Still crying) And I'm Dandy! -(Unison) We're the Mandy brothers.
Randy and Dandy Mandy!
-(Link/Dandy in faux tough voice) And you just learned how to
meditate
-(Link/Dandy whining) Not like a dork. -Not like a dork! You're gonna be fine, man.
