Watching this in the future and I cant believe they used to make the guest eat alone while Josh just sits there with his mouth watering and awkwardly watching them eat. They've really stepped up their game with this series 2 years later, no wonder its turned into what it has.
I remember watching this when it came out and it's kinda surreal to read these comments that saw into the future and could tell it was good. I just wanted to hear more from Rhett in a relaxed style interview that wasn't a podcast. Everyone complains about Hot Ones for also being torturous but it is the same style of relaxed interview at the start at least. Now it's almost redundant to talk about because he had Sean on the show!
Josh is a great personality and also a great communicator. So this transition to a conversational format with real questions and a dollop of jokes plus a weird mythical twist with the last meal concept. Chefs kiss man ‼️
I disagree. I think speaking effectively on camera is one of his weakest points. Too fast. Too eager. Too focused on what he will say next to allow the proper amount of response/acknowledgment of the other persons thoughts in a given exchange.
@@burntvirtue i had the same misconception but that is a goofy stick he portrays on camera. Listening to a hotdog is a sandwich made me understand josh is just a smart goofy guy.
This is great. The only tiny thing I'd change is having Josh eat the food with the interviewee. It feels a bit strange that they're both not enjoying the food while talking about it. Otherwise it's an amazing show and can't wait to watch more of it.
Came here to say this. I really enjoyed this and look forward to future vids in the series, but I would have much preferred to see Rhett and Josh eating together.
This way focuses more on who he is interviewing and their experience of enjoying _their_ last meal, I guess. I wouldn't mind if Josh shared that experience, though. Unless his last meal shares too much in common with the other person's. In that case, Josh would also have to die after eating it. That's just what the rules dictate.
I absolutely loved what josh said “Your past self is equally as important to your present self” I sometimes regret some tattoos I have/my life choices but I know my past self had her motives and I’m going to respect that.
"I sometimes regret some tattoos I have/my life choices but I know my past self had her motives and I’m going to respect that." ummm this is profound and im thankful to have read this. i needed to "hear" this. hope youre doing well, random stranger.
This reminds me of Hot Ones in the absolutely best way possible and I am so So incredibly excited to see future episodes. I feel like Josh is the only person who could do this, the way he naturally balances comedy with deep or dark subjects
Yah, the only problem I see with it is there only so much you can ask relating to the food. I think Rhett did a good job of explaining the reasoning behind each of his dishes, but lets be realistic. Most people just choose whatever they like. No big deep backstory that goes to their childhood or something like that. The lightning round could be viable, but you need just one more.... something... for the dishes incase you get a guest that just likes the food with no backstory.
The happiness that Rhett exudes as he eats his favorite foods is infectious. You KNOW food is good when you have that little giggle and smirk after the first bite.
Im usually dont comment on anything , but i feel like rhett has reached this level of self confidence and some level of "zen". hes just comes of so calm and well spoken ... realy pleasent to watch!
imo, he comes across as someone who tries to please the majority’s judgement and is very insecure on the inside, and tries to come across very confident. that’s just me tho! i’m a fan of him and link
This is a profoundly amazing show. I’m so excited to see further installments. Grappling with death through a comfort topic, food, is such a unique take.
I love this so much the only thing I wish is if you were eating the meal with them. I feel it would give it a more comfortable watch then you just watching over him while he eats 😂.
Rhett having an existential moment about beans makes his GMM with Tony Hawk experience all the more interesting; and this GMKitchen experience all the more fascinating.
Please make this a regular “show” if you will! It’s a great way to get people talking,discussing and reflecting! I so enjoyed the sit down and I feel like I understand more of why Rhett believes what he believes. Not that I agree but it helps me to understand how someone else thinks and that’s what our world has lost! The ability to agree to disagree and have opposing opinions but it’s okay! We are all different and how boring it would be if we all thought the same!
The mythical beasts did actually. He was given a couple of episodes as a test bed and in order to get the channel permanently it had to achieve a certain number of subscribers. The community basically told Mythical "we want Josh" so there it is.
As someone who is going to die early in life due to organ transplants and other medical issues, I love this. I think talking about dying and death shouldn’t be taboo. This was very well done. I look forward to seeing more episodes :)
@Beth Vaught I don’t mind being asked anything :). I’ve always been a cautious person but if I find a person to do things with then I may do some slightly risky things.
I love Fancy Fast Food, Meals of our Past, Past Food - all of them. But this series brings a nice balance to the chaos, a deeper side to thinking about our connection to food and each other. It’s beautiful. Can’t wait for more!
This was so much deeper than I expected! I love the discussion format being in a more manageable chunk than the hour-long episodes like Ear Biscuits :)
Best. Concept. Ever. Edit: Seriously. People have done lists, they've prepared the last meal of others, they've done cookbooks, but seriously how often do you get to see someone really try hard to make someone's perfect last meal? It's a magical moment.
Gotta keep going with this. Rhett is so thoughtful, so a great first guest. Terry Crews and any of the celebrities from the ethical dilemma episodes would be great. Rainn Wilson seems like a perfect guest for this show.
Along the same lines, I think it would be fascinating to hear from someone with a terminal illness and how their perspectives of life and death have changed since they now have to confront that reality
Just when I thought I could not love Josh more, he presents this brilliant show. What an awesome concept for a mostly awkward topic. The fact that he makes these meals with his team makes it all the more special. Well done, MK!
Please please please make this an enduring series! This is incredible! Josh's interview skills, pure personality, intelligence, and passion for food all really shine here in the best way possible, and the discussion is so fascinating!
Josh cooking his own last meal, fully actualized as a series in the best possible way. It's got the B roll, it's got the podcast-style interview questions, it grapples with deep topics and bonds over commonality, it's a perfect formula for a great series. You guys nailed this one, seriously. Can't wait to see more.
What an oddly poignant and philosophical conversation. I like that Josh is just being chill and hanging out, it's much more entertaining than when he's over the top and performing.
This is one of the most beautiful, vulnerable, brilliant, and Anthony Bourdain-would-be-proud-of-you things I’ve EVER seen. Rhett, your soul is so big and wonderful, my dude. Josh, Mythical Kitcheneers, YOU. WILL. WIN. AWARDS.
I was not expecting the depth of the conversation to go as deep as it did. It was a nice surprise! This show is going to be absolutely incredible and I can't wait to get more episodes where guests get this insightful and retrospective
I so want to see Ask A Mortician Caitlin Doughty on this. She's always so open to discussing death and planning. I reckon she and Josh would have a fascinating conversation.
this felt even more candid than earbiscuits usually does and wow. honestly, well done to josh and loved hearing rhett's thoughts. can't wait for another episode!
Really liked this episode, had a nice mixture of philosophical, more mature, debate, and of course the usual shenanigan's. Nice mix. :-) And the food looked of course absolutely amazing, also the cooking shots where quite delightful.
Wow, this was an incredible episode. What I anticipated was a lot of silliness, but what we got was some really thoughtful questions with equally thoughtful responses. I walk away from this episode knowing and respecting Rhett and Josh more. Thank you for this episode! I look forward to more like this.
This is a brilliant idea and concept. I loved getting a more in depth interview of Rhett and around a meal he would choose as his last meal. I can't wait to see more of these.
A great future idea would be to make a Last Meals cookbook after you have a bunch of episodes out! I’d LOVE the recipes for the French onion soup and beans!
This was an amazing interview, never thought I'd see someone on the same level of skill as Sean Evans (at least not on TH-cam) but here Josh is. He absolutely killed it. Also always love a show that goes with a more casual and positive look on death
I would love to see this series grow. Gave me a little of "Hot Ones" kind of vibe. Love the existential and philosophical themes. What a perfect setting for an interview! Get Sean Evans on the Show! That would be fantastic!
The thought of Link or Rhett speaking at the others funeral really got me. These two who is all the ways that matter being as close if not closer than family? I think I had my own breakdown at that.
I wasn't expecting this how to get so deep, even with an episode with a death theme. It's so much to think about, and Rhett's views on live the universe are really eloquent and beautiful. I also really need that beans recipe!
I agree! I was very happily surprised to hear Rhett ditched the hate-filled religion he was indoctrinated into. I was always afraid that they were secretly bigots like nearly all the people at the churches I grew up in, but their deconstruction videos were a huge relief.
Not that I don’t enjoy Josh, but these are my most enjoyable videos of his, jokes are always good but I like the questions he asked and conversation he brought to the table. Also the seriousness in some parts where you and Rhett really gave meaningful and in depth answers. Great episode.
Dude, I love listening to Rhett's views on things. He's so smart and intriguing and he really opens up doors in conversation that make you think. Love him.
such a great idea that only josh would be able to pull off. Would love it if this interview series continued. One note i would say is that it would be good for josh to eat the meal during the interview too. I think it would make people more comfortable (not that Rhett needs that..). Like Sean Evans eating the wings on hot ones!
@@saninpain Nah. I would want to share my last meal with someone I love. I'd want all my last moments to be shared with someone I love. Unless, of course, I was dying horrifically. I wouldn't want that image stuck in the head of someone I love. That's the same reason I won't do open casket funerals. I want the last memory I have of someone I love to be of them alive and happy, not dead, injected with chemicals, and put on display for everyone to gawk at.
I was fully expecting this to be another chaotic-energy type of episode but I'm happy to be wrong! I love how slowed down, profound, and yet still funny this was. It'll be great to see more. Hopefully all the guests will be as casually and comfortably well thought-out as Rhett was.
I love that regardless of who Josh is talking to, he always looks like he’s madly in love with them. I fully expected him to end this with “I love you.”
This is one of my favorite videos on the internet with Rhett in it. It really opens something up about him and it is super interesting to hear someone I’ve watched for years talk about something like this.
I grew up watching this show since 2014 (i was 13 at the time and my best friend had introduced me to it) and I’ve always enjoyed Rhett and links take on things (as much as the silly fun stuff). But i also always thought that them addressing important issues and having real talks was just as interesting as the other stuff to me since they were such smart and earnest people with a lot to say. I started watching the mythical show sometime after my mother had past in 2014 and those daily episodes I watched at breakfast before school are one of the times i look back on very fondly. I just had to reflect on that time because of what Rhett and josh said about Rhett’s legacy and what he put out on the internet. Made me think about what he’s given me. Also if it helps I had forgotten about the chocolate stream thing that is until u brought it up 😂.
Josh has such a natural flow with the questions, clearly similar to Sean but that’s what makes it great. I hope this series really hits the ground running. Just fkn nailed it.
Really enjoy this style of having someone sit in and explain why they chose that food and what that food meant to them growing up! Can't wait to see who you can get in to these interviews!
this is pretty much a nice, mature podcast with genuine talking points and genuine back add forths. it struck a good balance between humor and real conversation. it was nice, and i hope to see this continue.
I actually like this episode a ton, I really hope this is done with Link also because it's interesting to hear these conversations with Josh. The food also looks epic!
This video format is an amazing way to introduce people to conversations about death and personal beliefs without feeling heavy or overwhelming. I absolutely love this!
I need you to know how good this episode is. Definitely one of the best things creatively to come out of Mythical Kitchen. Keep up the good work, and I can’t wait to see the next one.
I know you guys literally just came out with this serios but MK should do a weekly nighttime upload, called Midnight Snacks or something. Do like quick, easy nighttime snacks/small meals
I know her content is a totally different tone, but I'd love to see Caitlin Doughty on an episode of this series. Death positivity is her whole thing, so this would be really fitting
This series needs to continue without question. Endless potential. Every guest will instantly open in matter we’ve never seen before. Josh is perfect for this.
I've gotta say, this is maybe the best content that I've ever seen from the Mythical crew. It is so sincere and thought provoking. It's also an incredible opportunity to see just how insightful both Rhett and Josh are.
I literally take medicine because thinking about death gives me horrible panic attacks. I think listening to peoples thoughts on death in this series could be a great form of therapy. Thanks for sharing, Rhett!
I think of death qnd life in terms of a dream. You don't remember when it began, you don't know when it is ending. You never know if your reality is "real". All you have is the experience you're feeling at this moment. Anything before or after is a dream- Inconsequential and powerful. There was a man who suffered a severe concussion, woke up, finished school, met a girl, started a family. Only to wake up, still on the asphalt after the attack. His whole life was a dream. Personally I had a boy who showed me life was worth living. That no matter what cruel irrational things were done to you, there was a way to make the pain worth it. Then I woke up and spent weeks crying, because I would never see him again. It was all just a dream. You don't remember when the dream starts or ends - don't fear either- because another dream or awakening is waiting. And If there is no dream, why worry? You can't remember time spent in nothing. Its just good rest on a night without dreams.
I can totally relate to your situation. death terrifies me, but this episode actually brought tears to my eyes. it gives me the unus annus vibes that I miss
This is such a great MK show concept! It allows for the interesting, potentially funny, conversations like a podcast, with the added layer of thoughtfulness around the idea of food and death linked as communal rites. And I would LOVE to see Caitlin Doughty from Ask a Mortician brought on when they start expanding beyond the Mythical family for guests.
really digging’ the tone of this video! i love the more high energy/silly stuff too of course, but it’s nice to have a video with a more serious vibe to it. i would love to see more episodes!!
I want to see this with Link, though I feel like for some reason he would just pick the most luxurious foods, or the most bland foods. It could go either way, only one way to find out!
We know peanut butter would be in it somehow, but I wouldn't mind betting it's a lot of southern foods as well. Link has talked about how much he loved his mom's cooking growing up!
I love this new segment, hope you have each Try Guy (Individually). I think my last meal would be fried chicken, some strawberry cheesecake, an ice cream drumstick, pork bao, inari & creme brulee because I've never had it lol
This combines some of my favorite things: Mythical Kitchen and Death Discussion Podcasts. I really love this because it’s so interesting to see how others feel about death, bringing it to light when a lot of people avoid it, by making it humorous and tasty. From a future mortician, wonderful work, y’all!
I really appreciate Rhett's agnostic viewpoint of life and I can really relate to his story. This was a great episode and I would love to see more like this.
I enjoy that he spoke about something so personal and as an agnostic person myself I like his explanation. My response to those who say "keep religion out of it". This is his show on a channel he co created. He can talk about what he wants and this was a profound moment in his life.
Absolutely love this format, its such a good combination of comedy, good food content, and profound discussion. Really looking forward to seeing more of this one.
This really is a great idea! Dude I love the passionate talk about both the food that the person who is being interviewed enjoys, as well as their thoughts on life and death. I hope they continue this!
Watching this in the future and I cant believe they used to make the guest eat alone while Josh just sits there with his mouth watering and awkwardly watching them eat. They've really stepped up their game with this series 2 years later, no wonder its turned into what it has.
same lol thats why I was browsing comments
I remember watching this when it came out and it's kinda surreal to read these comments that saw into the future and could tell it was good. I just wanted to hear more from Rhett in a relaxed style interview that wasn't a podcast. Everyone complains about Hot Ones for also being torturous but it is the same style of relaxed interview at the start at least. Now it's almost redundant to talk about because he had Sean on the show!
I was wondering what was going on there.
I was curious about this as well. Seems so odd compared to seeing Josh share in the meals in other videos.
Josh is a great personality and also a great communicator. So this transition to a conversational format with real questions and a dollop of jokes plus a weird mythical twist with the last meal concept. Chefs kiss man ‼️
🙆🏻♀️ I was quite properly impressed, too.
I disagree. I think speaking effectively on camera is one of his weakest points. Too fast. Too eager. Too focused on what he will say next to allow the proper amount of response/acknowledgment of the other persons thoughts in a given exchange.
I hope this show becomes like Hot Ones. I can see it! We love Josh!
Indeed
@@burntvirtue i had the same misconception but that is a goofy stick he portrays on camera. Listening to a hotdog is a sandwich made me understand josh is just a smart goofy guy.
Please continue this concept, but have Josh eating the food as well and commenting on the taste
This would elevate this into a crazy good series
I don't understand why Josh isn't eating with Rhett through this.
Probably because he made it for the most part so he knows it’s good, at least to him it would be.
It’s always going to be weird having only one person eating. Strange oversight but I’m glad it was fixed!
To be fair they are used to watching Rhett eat so
This series is gonna be huge.
You bet... You rascal!
Like those balls
Thank you JSchlatt of DreamSMP
What's up checkmark
Okay
This is great. The only tiny thing I'd change is having Josh eat the food with the interviewee. It feels a bit strange that they're both not enjoying the food while talking about it.

Total hot ones vibes here. But still being its own thing. Beautifully done.

Rhett with Link: silliness and bickering

Rhett and Josh in front of a table of food: Sean Evans-level interview.

Right?!?
Exactly what I was thinking!
one half was trying extra hard
This is a profoundly amazing show. I’m so excited to see further installments. Grappling with death through a comfort topic, food, is such a unique take.
Thanks . I was thinking this was too depressing for me but then I read your comment and you put it into perspective. Maybe.
That was a surprisingly therapeutic watch. Man, I love Rhett.
This could potentially be a great series. This is a great 'in' for an interview series. Bring in the celebrity guests!

That would be fantastic

Yes!
I love this so much the only thing I wish is if you were eating the meal with them. I feel it would give it a more comfortable watch then you just watching over him while he eats 😂.
I agree though idk how they would section questions in the case their last meal is only one small thing
This is a genius series, because I've constantly thought about what I'd want my "Last Meal" to be.
I’ve never really thought about it! What would yours be?
Id probably get 5 pounds of peppermint ice cream or 10 ghost peppers
Otamatome-based food
i wanna eat dinosaur bones
@@dualvoid8223 yup being stupid even in the cusp of death, you are gonna go to places

I second this! I’ve always thought last meals let you into the life of the person picking them
Whoever thought giving Josh his own channel was a good idea, is an unparalleled genius.
Pretty good comment (looks like an insult but is a compliment in disguise)
Exactly!
Lots a failures along the way!
@@websitesthatneedanemthat's the point of being a chef. To learn from those failures and mistakes.

Me starting to have a mental breakdown over my own death:
Josh: “alright so let’s move on to this fried chicken”
Salivates and cries quietly
LMFAOO
**grabs chicken leg** "How often do you think about death?"
@@kactus1889 that is so funny out of context
LMFAO
i have a phobia of dying so i think having them also talk about the food helps lol
It's goofy, dirty, deep, intimate, and beautiful all at once. This might be the best TH-cam interview series yet if it keeps going like this.
Couldn't agree more, absolutely loved this
The part where Rhett was discussing having Link deliver his eulogy was hilarious, heartwarming and sad all at the same time!!!😭
It actually made me almost cry lol I needed to remind myself that it wasn’t real thought to continue watching this video hhhe
I love that even in Ear Biscuits they have this running joke that Link is for sure going to outlive Rhett
This is definitely up there with hot ones. Keep bringing on mythical's favorites and outside guests and this will blow up.
As someone who is going to die early in life due to organ transplants and other medical issues, I love this. I think talking about dying and death shouldn’t be taboo. This was very well done. I look forward to seeing more episodes :)

Josh is a great interviewer. Dude has a great ability to tear down walls and get in there.
Also nice to see them cooking food that isn't outlandish.
This is an excellent series. Poignant, yet still with the full wacky Mythical vibe that we all love so much. You guys are awesome!

Also always love a show that goes with a more casual and positive look on death
This could be the next Hot Ones, I love the depth of conversation with the humorous undertones. Hope we get many seasons of this show!
“… being health-conscious…” *remembers everything Rhett has eaten on GMM*
I would love to see this series grow. Gave me a little of "Hot Ones" kind of vibe. Love the existential and philosophical themes. What a perfect setting for an interview!
Get Sean Evans on the Show! That would be fantastic!
The thought of Link or Rhett speaking at the others funeral really got me. These two who is all the ways that matter being as close if not closer than family? I think I had my own breakdown at that.
I wasn't expecting this how to get so deep, even with an episode with a death theme. It's so much to think about, and Rhett's views on live the universe are really eloquent and beautiful. I also really need that beans recipe!
i think its incredible ugly but you do you
I agree! I was very happily surprised to hear Rhett ditched the hate-filled religion he was indoctrinated into. I was always afraid that they were secretly bigots like nearly all the people at the churches I grew up in, but their deconstruction videos were a huge relief.
Not that I don’t enjoy Josh, but these are my most enjoyable videos of his, jokes are always good but I like the questions he asked and conversation he brought to the table. Also the seriousness in some parts where you and Rhett really gave meaningful and in depth answers. Great episode.
Y’all really need to get Ask a Mortician on the show!! I know this is a new show, but it’s never too early to give you guys suggestions! ☺️
I would love to see Caitylin do one with the context about death and food!
I'm wondering if Josh is a fan! She'd be proud of his death positive attitude.
Dude, I love listening to Rhett's views on things. He's so smart and intriguing and he really opens up doors in conversation that make you think. Love him.
I love this. Josh should eat the meal too. Might make it flow more like a dinner convo vs watching him eat.
He does now
this was good. the first thing i thought about rhetts meal choices is "i didnt realize he was that old"
This is my new favorite series! Link needs to be our next “subject”, of course 💕
such a great idea that only josh would be able to pull off. Would love it if this interview series continued.
One note i would say is that it would be good for josh to eat the meal during the interview too. I think it would make people more comfortable (not that Rhett needs that..). Like Sean Evans eating the wings on hot ones!
The thing is, I actually don't think it would be more comfortable. It's not a challenge it's a last rite, very personal. Definitely a solo endeavor.
@@saninpain Nah. I would want to share my last meal with someone I love. I'd want all my last moments to be shared with someone I love. Unless, of course, I was dying horrifically. I wouldn't want that image stuck in the head of someone I love. That's the same reason I won't do open casket funerals. I want the last memory I have of someone I love to be of them alive and happy, not dead, injected with chemicals, and put on display for everyone to gawk at.
I was fully expecting this to be another chaotic-energy type of episode but I'm happy to be wrong! I love how slowed down, profound, and yet still funny this was. It'll be great to see more. Hopefully all the guests will be as casually and comfortably well thought-out as Rhett was.
I love that regardless of who Josh is talking to, he always looks like he’s madly in love with them. I fully expected him to end this with “I love you.”
This is one of my favorite videos on the internet with Rhett in it. It really opens something up about him and it is super interesting to hear someone I’ve watched for years talk about something like this.
If you’re into Rhett and Link talking a little more personally about themselves I can only recommend watching Ear Biscuits!
I grew up watching this show since 2014 (i was 13 at the time and my best friend had introduced me to it) and I’ve always enjoyed Rhett and links take on things (as much as the silly fun stuff). But i also always thought that them addressing important issues and having real talks was just as interesting as the other stuff to me since they were such smart and earnest people with a lot to say.
I started watching the mythical show sometime after my mother had past in 2014 and those daily episodes I watched at breakfast before school are one of the times i look back on very fondly. I just had to reflect on that time because of what Rhett and josh said about Rhett’s legacy and what he put out on the internet. Made me think about what he’s given me.
Also if it helps I had forgotten about the chocolate stream thing that is until u brought it up 😂.
Josh has such a natural flow with the questions, clearly similar to Sean but that’s what makes it great. I hope this series really hits the ground running. Just fkn nailed it.
Really enjoy this style of having someone sit in and explain why they chose that food and what that food meant to them growing up! Can't wait to see who you can get in to these interviews!
I hope this becomes series. Rhett was the perfect person to go first.
That French onion soup looks delicious!
I always love listening to Rhett talk. He is so wise.
this is pretty much a nice, mature podcast with genuine talking points and genuine back add forths. it struck a good balance between humor and real conversation. it was nice, and i hope to see this continue.
I actually like this episode a ton, I really hope this is done with Link also because it's interesting to hear these conversations with Josh. The food also looks epic!
This series has great potential, I love how it still had the typical humor and sarcasm but it also got deep at times which was a nice contrast.
This is so genuine, so well thought out, mixed in with some good laughs…this was truly special. I can’t wait to watch more. 👏
This video format is an amazing way to introduce people to conversations about death and personal beliefs without feeling heavy or overwhelming. I absolutely love this!
Slow clap for you Josh. This is like hot ones but more chaos and I LOVE IT.
I need you to know how good this episode is. Definitely one of the best things creatively to come out of Mythical Kitchen. Keep up the good work, and I can’t wait to see the next one.
Rhett’s commitment to French onion soup is like my commitment to Chilé Verde.
I know you guys literally just came out with this serios but MK should do a weekly nighttime upload, called Midnight Snacks or something. Do like quick, easy nighttime snacks/small meals
This episode is genius! The format is wonderful and man Josh is a good interviewer. Seeing him make proper food is a bit strange though. 😃
I love this so much- I can’t wait to see where this goes. I would absolutely love to see both John and Hank do this.
I know her content is a totally different tone, but I'd love to see Caitlin Doughty on an episode of this series. Death positivity is her whole thing, so this would be really fitting
OH, I LOVE THIS IDEA
YAAAAAAAS! As a Deathling and mythical beast that would be a dream come true! I think they would vibe really well🤩🤩
YES!
Agree with above. ❤️😎👍
Omg yES
This series needs to continue without question. Endless potential. Every guest will instantly open in matter we’ve never seen before. Josh is perfect for this.
I've gotta say, this is maybe the best content that I've ever seen from the Mythical crew. It is so sincere and thought provoking. It's also an incredible opportunity to see just how insightful both Rhett and Josh are.
I literally take medicine because thinking about death gives me horrible panic attacks. I think listening to peoples thoughts on death in this series could be a great form of therapy. Thanks for sharing, Rhett!
I'm sorry you have to deal with that!
I think of death qnd life in terms of a dream. You don't remember when it began, you don't know when it is ending. You never know if your reality is "real". All you have is the experience you're feeling at this moment. Anything before or after is a dream- Inconsequential and powerful.
There was a man who suffered a severe concussion, woke up, finished school, met a girl, started a family. Only to wake up, still on the asphalt after the attack. His whole life was a dream.
Personally I had a boy who showed me life was worth living. That no matter what cruel irrational things were done to you, there was a way to make the pain worth it. Then I woke up and spent weeks crying, because I would never see him again.
It was all just a dream. You don't remember when the dream starts or ends - don't fear either- because another dream or awakening is waiting. And If there is no dream, why worry?
You can't remember time spent in nothing. Its just good rest on a night without dreams.
I can totally relate to your situation. death terrifies me, but this episode actually brought tears to my eyes. it gives me the unus annus vibes that I miss
This is such a great MK show concept! It allows for the interesting, potentially funny, conversations like a podcast, with the added layer of thoughtfulness around the idea of food and death linked as communal rites. And I would LOVE to see Caitlin Doughty from Ask a Mortician brought on when they start expanding beyond the Mythical family for guests.
OMG OMG that would be so much fun! ❤️😎👍
really digging’ the tone of this video! i love the more high energy/silly stuff too of course, but it’s nice to have a video with a more serious vibe to it. i would love to see more episodes!!
I want to see this with Link, though I feel like for some reason he would just pick the most luxurious foods, or the most bland foods. It could go either way, only one way to find out!
Pudding and cottage cheese lol 😂
A jar of peanut butter
@@peacenueve11 and cereal 😂
We know peanut butter would be in it somehow, but I wouldn't mind betting it's a lot of southern foods as well. Link has talked about how much he loved his mom's cooking growing up!
I love this concept!!! Can't wait for the next one!! Let's get Emily or Trevor next!!
I’d love an episode of this with Emily! I’d like to hear some of her more serious thoughts.
I love this new segment, hope you have each Try Guy (Individually). I think my last meal would be fried chicken, some strawberry cheesecake, an ice cream drumstick, pork bao, inari & creme brulee because I've never had it lol
keith's meal would either be a 12 course meal of multiple foods from different cultures or the largest thing of popeyes fried chicken
This combines some of my favorite things: Mythical Kitchen and Death Discussion Podcasts. I really love this because it’s so interesting to see how others feel about death, bringing it to light when a lot of people avoid it, by making it humorous and tasty. From a future mortician, wonderful work, y’all!
I love this segment so much. Please keep them going in the future.
This guy is down to earth and genuine and comfortable and hilarious. Love his sense of humor, he’s quick! This is my favorite Last Meal.
I really appreciate Rhett's agnostic viewpoint of life and I can really relate to his story. This was a great episode and I would love to see more like this.
I wish they would just leave religion out of it completely.
I enjoy that he spoke about something so personal and as an agnostic person myself I like his explanation. My response to those who say "keep religion out of it". This is his show on a channel he co created. He can talk about what he wants and this was a profound moment in his life.
@@j.b.9549 But would you say the same thing if he was saying something that didnt agree with you?
Yes I would because I respect others opinions. Or if I didn't like it I wouldn't watch it.
@@j.b.9549 it sure doesn't seem like you respect others opinions.
Absolutely love this format, its such a good combination of comedy, good food content, and profound discussion. Really looking forward to seeing more of this one.
Oh god my dad made pearl onion casserole every year for Thanksgiving and it scarred me for life.
OMG I love this concept SOO MUCH!!! Such open talk about death, life, and what's important to that person centering around food??? YES!!!
This really is a great idea! Dude I love the passionate talk about both the food that the person who is being interviewed enjoys, as well as their thoughts on life and death. I hope they continue this!
