- Tis the season to be shocking.
- Let's talk about that.
- Good mythical special holiday episode
and an extra special, ho, ho, ho to ya.
- You've really got to stop calling Nicole that.
- I called her that once and I didn't even mean to,
and I do not continue to call her that, or anyone.
- Okay, well, just so you know, Santa's always watching.
And speaking of Santa and always watching,
it's the holiday season!
- Look at this,
we're in it. - Time to put sweaters on
and come into this enchanted forest.
Wintery, pink and blue, red and blue.
- Christmasy stalagmites.
- Yeah, stalagmites. - Stalagmites.
- Yes, it's a time to gather around the fire
with friends and family, eat good food, and reminisce
for the next two weeks, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday,
right here with us,
as we count down the top mythical moments of 2021,
which you voted on.
- And I don't know if you noticed, Rhett,
but I light up.
- Oh! - I light up.
- But, hold on.
- It's not a button,
it's actually just a sticker.
Oh, just a- - You can have it.
- But I don't light up.
- I light up. - Oh man, look at that.
- And you don't, so. - All I can do is make this,
Rudolph do this. - We're going to get rid
of that.
Okay, we're starting off with a bang,
and we're taking a look at our most shocking
and unhinged moments of the last 12 months.
Do we do anything that's shocking or unhinged?
- What were you saying? I was just doing this.
- Do we do anything shocking or unhinged?
I don't remember. - Yes.
Okay, and we have not seen any of these moments
that you have voted on,
so each one is going to be like
a little gift under our trees.
Let's see the first one. - Okay.
- Let's dive right in
with unhinged moment number five.
In the name of sticky science, Rhett and Link
try to discover the best way to stop
a soda can from exploding, emphasis on the word, try.
- Whoa.
Bridesmaid party.
- Hey, Hey, man, I love this bridesmaid party.
- Can I have a drink? - Yeah, man.
- Whoo.
Hey man, I'm also thirsty, can I have a drink?
- Yeah, here's one.
- Oh, this is exactly what I just threw you, but different.
That's cool, man.
Oh! Oh! Oh!
- Did you see that? He's got a little misty.
- Man, this is our crazy bridesmaids party, look at that!
- We need a new can.
Whoops.
Oh! Oh!
Now, let me tell you what just happened.
- Oh my gosh, it popped out.
Did it take a tooth out?
- Did it? Did it?
- It popped so hard.
It popped so hard. - It smushed my lip
against my tooth.
- Oh, no!
I'm back in the bridal party.
Whoa! - Whoa!
- Whoa!
- Look how unhinged we are.
Nope, we pulled it together.
It worked.
- Hey, we learned something that day.
- We were so unhinged, but then we got hinged.
- We learned that it's called a bachelorette party.
That's what it's called,
it's not called a bridesmaid's party.
- Oh.
You're still so like.
- Oh. - Yeah.
- Oh. - Yeah, a bachelorette party.
Okay. It's good to watch these things back.
- But you didn't learn it until I pointed out.
- Yeah, I didn't.
- And also, what was the one that actually did work?
Just waiting, just waiting, just waiting, worked.
- Just waiting.
Just waiting just works, alright.
Let's keep going.
- At number four,
Rhett and link unleash their inner beast
by drinking as much Monster as humanly possible.
- Can I crush it on your chest?
- You can crush it on my chest.
- Slowly? - Slowly.
- I knew that's what you wanted.
- That's my summer glasses.
I didn't stay with those after the summer.
Stop pushing.
- Break a rib! Break a rib!
Yeah!
That was easy, man.
- [Announcer] Oh my God. The dad cam shot
was so epic.
- Sorry, Rhetts dad.
- Hey dad. - [Rhetts Dad] That's my boy.
- That is shocking.
- He's proud of me.
"That's my boy."
He doesn't really speak to me though
when I talk to my parents on the phone now,
I think he's ashamed.
- Oh, really?
When you speak to your parents on the phone now
it's only your mom? - When I do a video call,
he's there for a little bit and then he's just like,
okay, son, you've disappointed me on your little show.
- He calls it the little show?
- No, he's very proud.
- Does he truly know how shocking and unhinged it gets?
- I'm pretty sure he doesn't see the episodes that he,
he watches through his cam only,
but I don't think he goes on the internet
and watches the show otherwise,
and that's the way I want it.
- When you visit him over Christmas,
you should get him to bend over
so you can shove a can on his-
- I'm planning on it.
- Not in his, but on his. - On his, clearly.
- Alright, there's more.
- Coming in at number three,
two very mature boys show off their artistic talents
when they sketch live nude models.
- I remember this. Is this is gonna get weird?
- You mean me and you and two naked people
just having a good time together,
of course, it's not gonna get weird.
- How do I even choose?
Because I don't want to choose Amber and be like,
oh, I want to sketch it on naked woman.
- Okay.
This could be a thought process.
- Just in my head?
- I know you're a verbal processor.
- Women are a lot easier to draw than men are.
- Women are easier to draw than men?
- I think so, yeah.
- Okay, alright, I'll go with Amber
because I need a leg up,
well, I guess you could put a leg up.
- I can literally do that. - We'll talk about that later.
And Johnny, you're going to have to go with Rhett.
When the nakedness happens in just a second, Jennifer,
what should we do with our face?
- Your jaw should drop. - I don't recommend that.
- I'll probably just put it here.
- No drooling.
- You might want to hold your jaw, Link.
Just so we're prepared,
will you be making eye contact with us?
- Absolutely not.
- Okay. - Okay.
- Absolutely not.
- Johnny's like, don't even think about it.
Whoa. - Whoa.
- That was close, man. - Dang, that was shocking.
- We made y'all think you'd get to see some.
I've got an impression of you right now.
There's one part that I haven't even tried to draw yet.
- I can guess.
I've drawn a booba looba loobie.
Any advice for like, you know, drawing the nipple?
Because I've never done that.
- Just keep it subtle, you got it.
- Would it be weird if I added a sun?
- A what?
- I usually do a sun in the corner.
- Look at her. - Like a sun?
- Yeah. - Sure.
- Okay, here we go.
- Oh, wow.
You actually did a really nice job.
- Is that right? - I think so, yeah.
- You seem surprised.
- I was expecting like a cyborg of some sort.
- Here we go, Johnny.
- Look at that sun.
- I like how I have a halo.
- You're an angel man.
- What's the area above the wiener called?
- The pubis.
- Yeah, good job on the pubis. - You jealous of the pubis?
- A little bit.
- Little bit, little bit.
- Yeah, that's all I've seen that.
- You want to do any more of that in 2022?
Well, the interesting thing is,
you asked to take the charcoal set home with you after that.
- I did. - Have you
charcoaled anything?
- It's still in the trunk of my car.
- Okay, hey baby steps, man.
At least it's in the car.
- But my therapist was like, you know,
you might want to do some sort of art to like
release your anxiety. - Express yourself.
- And I'm like, well, you know what?
- Just putting holes directly through,
taking the sharpest charcoal you can
and just putting holes in paper.
- Before that I would just punch pillows.
- Oh, right, yeah.
- That's the technique my mom taught me.
- Speaking of therapy, check out the Ear Biscuits channel,
that's our podcast.
We've got a podcast that has audio
and then it also has video that we put
on the ear biscuits channel.
And the reason I said therapy, speaking of therapy,
is because we talk about personal things.
We talk about our journey as therapies boys.
- Yeah.
- But we talk about the top 10 moments of 2021
in the episode that is up right now.
- For each of us. - Yeah.
- These are our top 10 personal moments
that we didn't share with each other,
until we're sharing it with you.
Two lifelong friends talking about life for a long time.
Stevie.
- At number two, Rhett and Link
unsheathe a discontinued candy bar
only to receive a startling wooden surprise.
- I'm going to go with chocolate and almonds
and we'll leave that one just out.
- I feel like a Heath bar will hold up.
It's kind of like window caulk.
- Oh my God.
- Look at that, look at the color of that.
There's no way that was what it was. Hold on.
- It looks like particle board.
- Okay, in 1979,
the packaging implied that Mickey Mouse was on this bar.
- Yeah.
- The years of not being kind to Mickey on or off the bar.
- I mean, it's not been-
- It is so smooth!
- It's smoother than a baby's bottom.
- Did somebody sand these in Kernersville?
Did Kernersville sand the bars?
- I am being dead serious in telling you that
I think that this is wood.
- It is wood!
In Kernersville they took the chocolate out,
they put wood in there!
- Seriously, you can't,
it's wood! - It's wood!
It's not a joke, it's wood.
- Hold on, okay. - Look, look, it's cardboard.
- This is two hours north.
I was like, this looks like particle board, it frikin is!
This will not stand, guys.
- Oh, the retribution that we are going to unleash.
- We are coming for you Kernersville.
- We're gonna drive all the way there.
- We didn't.
We didn't drive anywhere that day, I don't think.
We were just a bunch of talk, man.
- But the guy who sold us those,
who I think we ended up talking about this
the next time we did it.
- Yeah.
- Cause we got some more stuff.
He felt so bad about it, you know?
Cause he's not going to like open it up and inspect it,
but it is the way it's done.
- It's the way that it's done.
- Cause most people are not buying it
to then eat it on the internet.
People are buying it because it's like,
oh, this is what the bars looked like in the packaging.
No, one's going to take it apart.
- Yeah, we ended up seeming like the uneducated jackasses.
- Well, that's par for the course.
- Yeah, sign me up for that job,
or I guess that's on my resume.
- And, do we have-
- Should I be making a resume after all this?
- Maybe, and we have, is it the top moment?
Yes, the number one.
We're down to number one. - Are we already there?
- We're down to number one.
- Well, don't steal Stevie's thunder.
- And now, the moment you've all been waiting for,
the most shocking and unhinged moment of 2021
scientifically proves that too much Red Bull
can make you psychic.
- Stevie.
I would like you to think of a number between-
- You happy about this? - One and 100.
- Okay. - In post
we're gonna put that number on the screen.
It's on the screen now, but we can't see that,
that was added later.
It's like, if I look down, there's nothing there.
You know how this works?
I have my number, I have my number.
- Really? I was getting numbers.
- Oh, is it in there? It's on that?
- I'm getting two numbers and I just don't know what-
- You think caffeine gives you psychic abilities?
- Well, that's where we're going to find out right now.
- Okay. - Call Red Bull, okay?
For me, I was getting 71 or 17.
These two numbers were coming through.
- Are you kidding me? - My number was three.
- Did you do something? - 71! I freakin told you!
I got 71! - Did you do something again?
- No, I did not!
I'm not kidding guys.
- Are you kidding me?
- That's crazy. - I'm not making it up!
You think we script is crap, we don't.
- This crap.
I do think it's crap.
I don't want to boost anything in his brain, it's true.
- This is not cheating, I didn't make something up,
this isn't some trick.
A second ago I got this feeling
that I was tapping into something
beyond the Red Bull studies.
- We have a medic on staff.
- I felt like I was literally tapping into
something psychic.
I almost didn't put or 17.
- I am so confused. - She's confused.
Because, listen, the moment you thought of it,
I got it from you. - There's no way
that you could be right.
- I got it from you, Stevie.
- Just poured Red Bull on my eyes.
- I tapped into your fricking thoughts
because of Red Bull! - I can't believe it.
- I think a miracle has happened.
From now on, I am brought to you by Red Bull.
- Hey, how's that going,
being brought to people by Red Bull?
- You know what?
I think I maybe made the mistake
of thinking it was the caffeine,
and it was specifically the Red Bull.
Because I haven't been able to replicate
any of my psychic powers, but I've just been relying on,
you know, caffeine through sodas and like coffee.
I gotta go back to Red Bull.
I need to be a Red Bull athlete.
- We tried it with another one,
it might've even, you know, when we were doing,
what was the followup to Red Bull?
- Monster. - Monster Bull.
- It's not the caffeine, it's the brand.
- Cause it was jump cut, we may have even
cut that out of the episode.
Was it in there where he failed?
- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. - We tried it.
- I did it and it didn't even work.
- We got to come clean.
You tried it again with Monster
and then you blamed it on the Monster.
- I am blaming it now, now that I see the moment,
the moment of me, there was a seven and there was a one
and I grabbed them out of the air and put them in my brain
and then said that, that's exactly how it worked.
- So, you're only psychic on single digits, really.
- Yeah, well I haven't really exercised that muscle.
I mean, I haven't really leaned into it.
I'm been getting a lot of messages and tweets
about ways that I could.
- Oh really? - Yeah.
People who believe that I am psychic, clearly psychic.
- Are asking you things?
- Just telling me that I should pursue it
because I clearly have a gift.
And I just so far, I just haven't.
I haven't explored, I haven't dabbled.
- I don't think there's more money in it
that what we're doing now.
- Do you know about Ms. Cleo?
- Okay, I guess I'd take it back.
- Okay?
- We're ending every episode with a gift
because we want our crew to give us gifts
and it was fun last year.
- This one is from Art, and that's not a person named Art,
that's from the Art Department.
Nice let it snow card.
They said, "To Rhett and Link,
happy holidays from the art department,
AKA the mythical inventioneers, AKA Mike, Lucas,
Caitlin, and Natalie."
Asterisk, "Please don't use all of these gifts at once."
- But you didn't read what the card-
- "Hope the holidays brings the things that make you smile."
I mean, who cares?
Who cares?
- First of all, we have some paper.
Don't use all that at once.
We have a t-shirt that has a number three on it.
A t-shirt with a number three on it.
- I could have predicted that.
- Alright, well there's more,
can you predict the next thing?
- The next one's going to say 71 on it.
- Oh my God.
Oh my God.
That's because you knew that mine said three,
don't use these all-
- Hey, I gotta use this ability, man.
- I guess this will be mine.
- I gotta use this ability.
- And then.
- Oh, there's more.
- We've got a free nude model lesson
taught by Mike Pasley.
- Taught by him,
but it also looks like he's going to be posing for it.
- I think he's going to be putting his head
on someone else's body for it.
- How could you teach and be the subject at the same time?
- I don't know.
That is a hairless Mike Paisley body.
- Yeah. - I mean, I gotta think
Paisley's body has more hair on it
than this is currently depicting.
- Well, only one way to find it.
Show up for the lesson.
- Is that it? Is there anything else in here?
Oh, there's more.
- Oh, we got some koozies.
What are on these koozies?
- The Art Department.
We got Mad Dog doing kind of a relaxed version
of the Lionel pose. - Yeah, Lucas,
you could have gone full Lionel, but you didn't,
It was too relaxed.
I'll call it the relaxed Lionel.
- Yeah.
- Alright.
- For our sticky sodas. - Oh, these are for
our sticky sodas.
- Very thoughtful.
- They conserved a lot of the budget.
I expect the next gifts we get to be like
actually, to imply some sort of expense.
- We don't know what that lesson would cost.
- Art department, you know, you make your own reality.
- Okay, listen, we just broke the seal today.
- Thank you. - We will see you
on Wednesday when we find out the top five
sexiest moments of 2021.
