They really need to create Custom Reusable Rhett and Link straws. Not only would it be cool for Challenges like this but I'm sure the Mythical Beasts would buy and use them.
As someone who didn’t sleep very well last night and also had some very boringly real feeling dreams when I was asleep, the Canada Dry portion of this episode is when I really started to question if I was awake or not
"very boringly real feeling dreams" is a lovely way to describe it. I've had a similar one where I had to self checkout bananas but for some reason decided to break the bunch and scan each banana individually?? ....that's what this episode felt like.
Link: "If this isn't Sprite, then its my new favorite" "Never too much bite" "If it doesn't have the bite, it aint sprite" Also Link: "chooses the other one" Me: ........
Next time they do a strawless drink taste test like this I think Rhett and Link should apply lipstick throughout the episode so they can easily see where the other drank from.
I just wanted to leave a comment to recommend any new fans go back and watch GMM from the start. I remember one of the earliest episodes I watched was Rhett and Link receiving their blindfolds in the mail. The fact that they still use the same ones (yes I know they’ve had to be replicated due to damage) is a small detail that I love about this show. These two men have grown so much, and a lot of us have been there for the whole ride. I guess the point of this is to say, that ride is worth taking, even if you know how it will end when you eventually catch up again.
gosh yeah, i remember watching them back when i was, like, 9 or 10. im about to be 20 now and i still love their videos. i love that they’ve grown with their audience and that they can do so much more stuff now, but there will always be a special, nostalgic place in my heart for their earlier stuff too
I’m 30. These guys are, what, 45ish? It is such a weird phenomenon that, 15 years apart, we both have memories of class parties where someone brought Dr. Thunder. I didn’t even know this was like _a thing._
I'm 23. I actually prefer Dr thunder over Dr pepper, but I almost never drink soda. I don't like the fizz. The only soda I would occasionally drink was Dr Thunder.
These videos aren’t about being intelligent. They are designed to illicit a response. All they had to do was put a sticker or tape on one side of the glass. Instead watching these morons try to drink from the same glass was supposed to be “funny”. Gave me the heeby geebiez.
I like how if you watch Link he's continuously rotating the glass so it just doesn't matter. The second round two times he's drank from the near side and then he switches to the far side on the next drink. So just get two glasses next time guys if your that worried about it.
It didn't click for me until I saw someone else mention it. It would be interesting to see some stats on whether or not this boosted number of comments shortly after the video aired, thus pushing it up the algorithm
Ngl my sertraline tablets are some of the best tasting medicine I’ve had they almost taste like smarties without extra flavor lmao they have the same chalk like consistency as smarties too it’s great 😂
It's either they're afraid the glasses will get mixed up between stations.... or the probable actual answer is that it's for the show, we get the entertainment of them planning and bickering over who drinks from which side. 😂
The fact that these guys have kept the entire set almost the same design for all these years honestly brings me pure joy :,) I grew up watching y’all ❤️
At first i thougt "tomatoes for movie night? Wtf?" But then I saw the way he bit it, and raised his eyebrows to the camera. And I knew in that moment the intent was to mess with Link. Bravo sir!
in this format, when it comes to drinking without straws, I think one of them should wear lipstick so that the other person won't get confused and know where to sip next. already seen Link with lipstick on a few times, he looked good in it 😂
It's interesting, of all the "old school" youtubers, not to impugn any of those from the early days, cause they did the work and were great people.. GMM continues to be at the top of their game..and just fun to watch. It's a great thing cause they deserve it so much.
you should share freeze frame shots of their videos and have rhett and link make fun of each other facial expressions 7:30 their faces are hilarious their reactions are so expressive
I stg if you go from 9:04-9:15 at .25 speed you can see it in Rhett’s face. He knows it’s the Dr. takes a double sip ( only glass he took two sips of btw) and as he puts it down he raised it to the heavens with grace. That is all I have to say
Seeing them all concerned about where on the glass they have taken a sip is wild to me. 😂 If you're already sharing, who cares?! My friends and I share all the time. "Want to try some of my beer? It's really good!", "I can't finish this Red Bull. Do you want to rest?"
@@DemonLord_D everything that can be spread through saliva can probably also be spread through the air besides sti so safe to say y'all already sharing germs
I can't wait for the ' I was today years old ' episode, where Link finally learns [and understands / fully comprehends] that people literally taste things differently... xD
I was gonna joke about how after decades of friendship theyre still worried about sharing germs, but boy it sure does boost the engagement in the comments section
Mythical is a California based company, & in 2022 they passed a law in California with this new law straws, napkins etc are only provided to a person in a restaurant if they specifically ask for them. So my literal only guess is maybe they were trying to make a joke about that? That's the only possible thing I can think of.
Usually when they try to accomplish something technical I immediately doubt their past education and engineering degrees, however I’m actually impressed with the both of them and their dedication to drinking from separate sides, they surprisingly seemed pretty successful this time around.
15:28 might be the most Rhett and Link moment ever. Link making some strange declarations, that we accept and Rhett tasting constantly, that we accept, and then Rhett gets it right.
In all my life of regularly consuming normal beverages such as root beer and Dr Pepper I have never once thought that either of them taste like medicine. Before this show I never thought that anyone would have such a problem with what I generally consider to be a pretty basic soda flavor.
Topo Chico is more of a club soda then a seltzer water. so it does have a flavor and that flavor is 10mg of sodium that give it a bit of a saltiness. most ppl wont even realize but if you drink actual seltzer water where the ingredients are 0 on everything and is strait up just carbonated water you can tell when something has even a little bit of sodium or sugar in it.
I like the fact that they once birdfeeded eachother and they are worried of not using a straw
They are not worried about it. They want to appease the sensitive herd. Easy facts
@@letsjustlaugh1592 no, it’s when he’s had a recent outbreak they avoid sharing things.
@@letsjustlaugh1592 lmao tell us you live thinking about what other people think without telling us??
It's clearly a bit, otherwise they would have just had separate glasses, like they normally do.
@@letsjustlaugh1592how are they "appeasing" anyone? Lmao
The no straws was painful to watch lol😂 Next time make Link wear lipstick so Rhett knows where Link drank from.
That would be kind of hilarious 😭 especially if they don’t explain it
I thought the same thing LOL
Came here to say this
@@beabeabea3 Yeah, just do the whole episode and don't mention it once.
They 100% messed up a couple times. Link sabotaged Rhett on the Canada Dry
They really need to create Custom Reusable Rhett and Link straws. Not only would it be cool for Challenges like this but I'm sure the Mythical Beasts would buy and use them.
Not just straws but all utensils and make them temperature changing or mood ring type material
good idea!
Can confirm! Would buy straws and all utensils! Mini spoons!!!
i wondered that but then maybe they’re worried the flavor from the previous drink would still be in there
Or use a glass with a GMM logo on the front, and one person gets the logo side. If they don't have a clear GMM glass (not a mug), create one!!
I swear to God, every time I think Link hits the awkward bottom he manages to just dig deeper. It's a talent.
he keeps surprising us every time
I'm with Rhett questioning the friendship wanting to hit the undo button
@@gixxer_kidjust undoing what Link said I think.
@@mikecole1664no, he said the undo life button 😂
The energy in this episode is wild. It's like neither of them have slept for 24 hours.
That’s what I was thinking!
i love seeing comments like this before i even start the episode. i know i’m in for a good time😂
some episodes are like that. sometimes i feel like im in a fever dream and sometimes it's a normal day lmaoooo
yes. Rhett is extra grumpy and Link is extra loopy
Last one filmed for the day lol
When Rhett tasted the actual Dr. Pepper, I saw the look in his eyes and I knew that he knew. 😏
Same😂 I thought I was the only one
Please do a "Will it Soup?" - I want to see Rhett and Link try a Big Mac Soup.
They already did
@@martinmare1459 Will it Soup 2: Electric Boogaloo
I was thinking the same! we need a new one!
@@c0mpu73rguy Will It Chardee MacDennis? 🤣
That's a great idea actually
As someone who didn’t sleep very well last night and also had some very boringly real feeling dreams when I was asleep, the Canada Dry portion of this episode is when I really started to question if I was awake or not
"very boringly real feeling dreams" is a lovely way to describe it.
I've had a similar one where I had to self checkout bananas but for some reason decided to break the bunch and scan each banana individually??
....that's what this episode felt like.
Bahahah.... I wonder what the banana dream symbolizes. 🤣🤣💯
Just when i thought Link couldnt be any wierder... We get this episode 😂
Yes! 💯 I was going to say Link was a weird duck in this episode 🤣😂
“And I drink saaamm”😏😏😏
I am so glad they’re still keeping the ‘Link finding Sprite’ gag going after all these years
is it in reference to the Ice Bath episode? 🤣
@@toosoapyyup it is!
I can’t really explain it but this whole episode felt like a fever dream.
With them not being able to get straws and Links behaviour, this fits...
Especially w The whole farside nearside i did not understand
Link: "If this isn't Sprite, then its my new favorite"
"Never too much bite"
"If it doesn't have the bite, it aint sprite"
Also Link: "chooses the other one"
Me: ........
Who knew the way to increase engagement is by not providing straws?
I can't believe literally all the comments are people bickering about straws 😂💀
they’re gonna change one random thing about all future episodes
The comments are going crazy over it when it's obviously intentional 😭
Your art department could have put a Rhett sticker and a Link sticker to signify who's side is who's on the glasses.
this would be great
Or just give them two glasses of each, lmao
@@Revenent530 right
lol, I was thinking lipstick
Do you realize how much that would confuse Link?!
It’s weird how they’ve been best friends for what? 30years? And they’re still worried about not using straws.
Links got the herps
@@Veggie_King 😂😂😂
link literally said he has something that can be contagious by sharing stuff like that...
They have the budget to get separate glasses. I don’t know why they don’t.
I think they’re in their mid 40s so they’ve known each other around 40 years ago
Please do a gut check for Sparkling ICE drinks they seem to have so many flavors now
Sparkling ICE is so yummy 🤌🏼 I'm in favor of this.
Sparkling ice is amazing
Why in the world are they not just using two glasses? 😂
It's a bit
Budget cuts 😂
or STRAWS
because there are 4 brands each round. how would they try four brands with only two glasses? thats ludicrous
You know it's a bit because they have staff members that can "create" straws w/o GMM having to buy straws.
Rhett: Are you keeping it straight?
Link: Yeah, I'm keeping it straight.
Also Link: *proceeds to not keep it straight*
they should make custom R and L taste testing cups so they don’t have to share since they’re on a budget
Taste Testing Sippy cups would be awesome
It was all intentional for the bit
First episode??? They usually drink from a tandem helmet.
@@willisverynicei don't think so...
@@clash8181 watch the more after the episode rofl
Next time they do a strawless drink taste test like this I think Rhett and Link should apply lipstick throughout the episode so they can easily see where the other drank from.
But have them share the same lipstick
*“I don’t really like root beer, so I’m gonna have to think about smelling my sons breath”*
Link… too much bite makes it right and he still doesn’t pick it 😭 Omg I swear😂😂
"Its like drinking bite" is the perfect description of sparkling water
Crew, get the guys their own reusable straws. You can get them made of glass, silicone, steel, etc.
Or just not be a Californian envirofreak and use a real straw like the rest of the world.
@@rationalbacon5872 a lot of countries have banned 'real straws'. Mine has. We use paper straws or reusables
@@rationalbacon5872 half of the world ditched plastic straws, not only california
It's a good idea to make Will It Straw episode
You need to use a reusable metal straw 1100 times to offset its carbon emissions
I just wanted to leave a comment to recommend any new fans go back and watch GMM from the start.

Link and the Dr. Pepper breath thing nooo 😭💀
So gross
🤢
hes a sick person, idk why he even talks.
He said that about rootbeer. But I totally know the nasty Dr Pepper breath situation. Dang soda should be banned because of the smell 🤮
Link was definitely over rotating the glasses😂
I’m 30. These guys are, what, 45ish? It is such a weird phenomenon that, 15 years apart, we both have memories of class parties where someone brought Dr. Thunder. I didn’t even know this was like _a thing._
Of all the Walmart brand sodas Dr Thunder is worth the dollar 😂
I'm 20 and remember dr. Thunder at school parties
I’m 25 and I am in the same boat
I'm 22. I remember people bringing Dr. Bob and Dr. Thunder to school parties
I'm 23. I actually prefer Dr thunder over Dr pepper, but I almost never drink soda. I don't like the fizz. The only soda I would occasionally drink was Dr Thunder.
I sometimes wonder how I can make it through an episode when Link talks about smelling his family's breath. Y'all are still my favorite morning show.
It seems like using 8 glasses instead of 4 would have been a much easier solution if they're worried about transmission.
Common sense
These videos aren’t about being intelligent. They are designed to illicit a response. All they had to do was put a sticker or tape on one side of the glass. Instead watching these morons try to drink from the same glass was supposed to be “funny”. Gave me the heeby geebiez.

Thank you! You as well!
why thank you
"Would it be too painful to find Advil in a line of painkillers?" "Let’s talk about that."
Rhett's look of incredulity at 14:49 is hysterical 🤣
Rhett's reactions to Link gives me so much joy.
“This is so hard. I think I have 100% confidence in this” -Link
when link said some of the medicines are sweeter, I knew what he meant
Right? Advil is so nice 😏
@@jacquesbrat2834 yessss the red Advil lol
The red Advil is surprisingly minty,!
Ngl my sertraline tablets are some of the best tasting medicine I’ve had they almost taste like smarties without extra flavor lmao they have the same chalk like consistency as smarties too it’s great 😂
So they even admitted they are using 2L bottles, but won’t pour another glass? I’m so frustrated. Are we being trolled?
It's either they're afraid the glasses will get mixed up between stations.... or the probable actual answer is that it's for the show, we get the entertainment of them planning and bickering over who drinks from which side. 😂
It’s manufactured so they get more engagement in the comments section. Smart producers
yes.
Why are you frustrated ? It’s not that serious lol
Chill bro

One of the best GMM quotes ever..." Can you hit the redo button on life?" hahaha
At first i thougt "tomatoes for movie night? Wtf?" But then I saw the way he bit it, and raised his eyebrows to the camera. And I knew in that moment the intent was to mess with Link. Bravo sir!
All these years and Link still stabbing at his guess full force
The face Rhett makes 10:35 man's really re thinking is life choices 😂
wow, theres things we haven’t done yet
-Rhett
8:37 Rhett’s FACE. Someone please meme that🤣
These episodes have been so good recently!
I don't think Link has ever had a thought before speaking in his life
Or a filter
My first GMM video in 8 months after joining the military and it still hits. Love these dudes and the GMM crew man 🫶🏾
Rhett always gets mad at Link's innuendos, when he's the one who blatantly says those things all the time lmao
The comment section eat it up too every. single. time. 🤣
Can we get another sparkling water taste test, so Link can fail at identifying Topo Chico?
in this format, when it comes to drinking without straws, I think one of them should wear lipstick so that the other person won't get confused and know where to sip next. already seen Link with lipstick on a few times, he looked good in it 😂

"Far side!"

Link’s eye roll at ✨challenging ✨ had me laughing so hard! 15:14 🤣
can't wait to see the "Beer" version of this episode! (Spins the Thunderwheel)
The fact that they don’t want to drink from the same side of the cup but have literally ingested each others urine 😅
Link had a cold sore that’s why they did that
@@carolinesturgill1825 I know what you meant, but it's funny to read this as "Link had a cold sore, so they ingested each other's urine.

Pretty sure Canada Dry is one of the few ginger ales that uses real ginger when they make it. Probably why it's so distinct.

I can't wait for the ' I was today years old ' episode, where Link finally learns [and understands / fully comprehends] that people literally taste things differently... xD
Lol Stevie laughing at "Are you keeping it straight?" "I'm keepin' it straight"
They need to just give you guys your own colored straws so you don’t have to worry about if you touch the glass or not lol
Or 2 glasses to save plastic 🥤
coloured metal or pasta straws would be smart
They've had silicone straws on the show before as well 😅 why not just use those again?
@@Dracokitten2 maybe they think the straws will change the taste lol
This whole thing was aggravating and it seems like very little thought/production went into it.

“Will it Falafel”? And “Will it Hummus”? Could be two good episodes
3:17 maybe i've been watching GMM too much that i know as soon as Rhett is laying down the rules, Link would (always) try to make it difficult 😅
12:02 Now that’d make for an interesting episode 😂
Good Mythical Midweek to you all~
I do not remember where the Sprite joke came from, but darn it am I happy when they use it
That's a really old one, I don't recall either
I’ve never known of anyone else to be as passionate as I am about Topo Chico besides Link 💛
The couple at the end with the tomatoes is ADORABLE 😍🍅
"Can you hit the Undo button on life?" LOL
Rhett giving “Willy Wonka ‘tell me more’ meme” vibes at 7:55. That’s a photoshop job I’d love to see 😂

Lmao I understood that reference!
Denethor has entered the chat
Finished elementry and highschool got a job and married and have 1 kid and these two are still crazy
Link's extra sassy today 😂
I love how serious they're taking which side of the glass to drink from 😂 you'll be fine guys
you guys should do punishment for the loser way more, it makes the episode funnier
Came here after a few years without watching any GMM. Happy to see this
Love the episodes where Link is being so chill with the wild stuff he says
