This is what I mean when I say not all soulmates are romantic partners. Their relationship is so beautiful. I hope everyone finds someone they can dream with
the conversation towards the end about rhett becoming a different person and recognizing he wasn’t validating link’s feelings made me so emotional. it’s so cool to see two grown men openly talk about their love for each other and the importance of their relationship ❤
Reminded me of what happened with Ian and Anthony with Smosh and how work changed their friendship. Glad both sets of friends ultimately worked through it in their own way
Me and my best friend were born in the same hospital on the same day in rooms next to eachother, and have known eachother ever since! celebrating long friendships is awesome 🎉
Story - my mum had a tough birth and lost lots of blood, my besties mum heard what was going on next door and offered to look after me so she could rest! Thats when we first met lol
@@belliejelli1642that's a cool story. I read your OP and thought, "well, how did that plan out?", because I had two kids and it's not like your socializing with other people in the hospital. But, that's a sweet story.
That story about rhett kicking link out of the truck and making him walk always inspires me to write. Like I think it would be a really, really good scene in a movie. Or a book. I genuinely hope that one day, a movie that is inspired by these two gets made and that it's focus is in the friendship but also touches on their deconstruction and stuff.
We love emotionally mature and intelligent men!!! Obsessed with how incredible both of you are and how you can inspire the next generation of people to speak to each other respectfully and openly with love. It’s amazing- love yall, love your friendship ❤️
Finally, wow this was a REALLY good talk. I genuinely miss you guys having these conversations validating one another and hearing each other out on perspectives and experiences, meshing them together, and creating a Biscuit for the Ears 😁 Keep on keepin' on!
I listened to this podcast on Monday, but I just wanted to comment that this was a wonderful episode. It is rare for anyone to have such a long friendship, and one where you actually stay close all through the years. That is something worth celebrating, and something worth cherishing. It was cool to hear you go through these important moments, and, at the same time, talk about the tougher times, and how you've worked through them. Happy anniversary!
I grew up on the other end of NC. I'm almost 2 years older than you. My upbringing was very similar to you guys; purity rings and all. So much so, that my husband was in ministry for 15 years. Most of those teachings are not the same for us anymore either. Don't ever let anything change or take your friendship, first and foremost. Cheers to the next 40 years!! Love you guys!
This makes me think of how blessed I am to have met my best friend who I met in 4th grade and have been best friends for almost 25 years now!! Never realized how rare that is. From moving to our parents saying relationships like that did out. We’ve made sure it doesn’t. There’s a group of us from around that time. But this dude and I have been best friends since 4th grade and we’re both 28 now. I wish people could experience that more.
I really enjoyed this longer episode learning about how deep your friendship is! When watching GMM, sometimes people don't realize you aren't just business partners. This was awesome!! I've been a mythical beast for 10 years and I have gone back and watched every single episode. Love you guys!
Beautiful episode. ❤ Its refreshing to hear about the momemts when your relationship wasn't so great along with the moments that carried you both through. We take your friendship for granted, but no relationship, whether romantic, platonic, or professional, is without some (or a lot) of effort and commitment to keep it going. Thank you for sharing so many of yours with us ❤❤
I'm so happy you two have each other, there's something infinitely special about your friendship. Beautiful conversation at the end there. Thank you for letting us listen
I love this series so much. I was going to write a long paragraph on how much you two have impacted my life but I realize that even a small comment can still have the same impact. So thank you for being there for me. Congratulations on forty years!
I’m glad you guys have each other. You guys are a great duo. I realize that you might not always get along but I appreciate your maturity to be able to carry on your friendship through the years! I hope for everyone that they one day find a person that they can exist with like Rhett and Link and their families ❤
I’ve never experienced a long lasting friendship but I do know how much u guys mean to me and I love seeing u as a duo and the love and respect u have for each other❤
My first best friend and our friendship was like yalls. I got saved at his church when I was a kid. He passed away when we were 16 in a car accident. But if he was still alive, I like to think we'd still be best buds like Rhett and Link are. These types of friendships are important for a man to survive this world. I miss him and hope Heaven is treating him well. Im a 32 year old man now and haven't had a friendship like that since high school. I miss the companionship. And I'm from SC so we are technically neighbors haha.
It’s a soul connection. My best friend and I are absolutely soul connected. She is just a part of my life, there’s no questioning it. It’s a beautiful thing 🩶
Happy friend-iversary to my all-time favorite BFFs! Thanks for letting me live vicariously through y'all as I don't have a bff 🙂 I get to know what it might feel like though because of y'all. I hope you have 40 more years together 💖💕
I just love you guys so much! Beyond all the fun, silliness and laughter, your openness and honesty about your lives and your friendship is so inspiring, sweet, and uplifting! You make my day every day! Thank you! ♥♥♥
Happy 40th friendversary to you Rhett and Link. I love you both so much and I love how you can just feel love you have for each other is valid and real. Plus you're both hilarious and I just think you're awesome. Thank you for sharing with all of us❤
As a fellow NC kid who was born in 87, I can definitely relate to going to Danbury and swimming in Dan River several times every summer. It was about 35 minute drive for us and I have fond memories of having a blast all day in the water. Playing in the woods was a huge part of life too, literally the funnest place to be, getting older and going camping with friends, some of the best times. No matter what age nature is just awesome and I hold it in great reverence.
Thanks for sharing the negative and difficult times, too! People often either try to make up negativity when it isn't happening or think you both as mythical figures who could never have disagreements in your friendship. Thanks for keeping things realistic and humanizing.
Swear, it feels like you can’t have friends like this nowadays. And not even bc I didn’t find a friend for life as a kid, but because it feels like people today, at least my age, are: ignorant, selfish, unintelligent, unaccountable [for their actions], egotistic… anything else? The only people, honestly maybe even just one of them, I have ever been able to remotely open up to have been exes. I am extremely reserved and quiet, but if I see you as one of my own, I let you know my universe. Still awaiting my life-long friend to talk about life for a long time with. ❤ Rhett and Link
Your friendship is inspiring. I think people love life to try and experience the bond that you have. I hope to one day be able to have a friend like you have.
Rhett and Link's friendship is what I hoped and expected my friendship with my childhood friend would've been, had he not moved away and become super-religious...
I feel like when you get old, you start fully remembering your whole life. I don’t think I can tell a detailed, chronological story of my life till the hairs start turning gray.
I cut off a friendship because my needs weren’t being met and when I never heard from her again I figured that was why cuz she didn’t want to be friends with me anymore. It hurt but I’m a big girl. I know I am a good friend , so if she didn’t want me as a friend then it’s best for Me
This makes me feel so lucky to also have the same best friend since 1st grade. Going on 21 years of friendship. This is such a lovely episode thanks for sharing 🫶
Same! I can't wait! There was definitely a Sextember reference in the most recent Wonderhole episode, it was the first thing I thought of during the scene
This is what I mean when I say not all soulmates are romantic partners. Their relationship is so beautiful. I hope everyone finds someone they can dream with
Well said.

Wow, that’s super awesome🎉
@@belliejelli1642that is the sweetest and most beautiful story oh my goodness ❤
“We fostered an unapologetic commitment to dreaming.” (45:50)
This gave me goosebumps.
lol
Why? If you feel that way at all, the whole thing should give you goosebumps.
I genuinely think a Rhett and Link biopic titled like "Blood Oath" or something could be an amazing film.
I’d buy tickets and merch for that
…I doubt it tho
Starring Jason Momoa and Timothee Chalamet hahaha
Yeah... I wish they'd title *something* Blood Oath 🤦🤦🤦😂
@@RDSwords🤣😂🤣😆🤣😂

Tbh you can't have a friendship movie without their deconstruction.
@katelynbrown98 wow I didn't even think about that
I love Link’s laugh after Rhett said his relationships were pretty shallow 😂
I’m not crying you’re crying. Prime example how communication in ANY type of relationship is impotent. Love the honesty. Happy 40th.
Did you mean important? 😅 That word means something very different
We love emotionally mature and intelligent men!!! Obsessed with how incredible both of you are and how you can inspire the next generation of people to speak to each other respectfully and openly with love. It’s amazing- love yall, love your friendship ❤️

Congratulations. Here's to 40 more years :)
Rhett mentioning that his parents want to believe that his atheism is “just a phase” is so real to me 😂
this episode is such a beautiful love letter to their relationship. all moments good and bad included.
Absolutely
Thank you for being friends!

as someone who's only 39 (born in 85) that's a long friendship indeed, congrats
most of us couldn't even imagine a friendship that long
their relationship is very similar to the relationship I have w my twin sister, which says a lot about how strong their bond is as friends
I’ve never experienced a long lasting friendship but I do know how much u guys mean to me and I love seeing u as a duo and the love and respect u have for each other❤
Beautiful friendship. I appreciate your openness and vulnerability. ❤

Watched a whole hour. Love you guys. Saving the rest for later
The BIGGEST glow up in history
Your friendship is inspiring. I think people love life to try and experience the bond that you have. I hope to one day be able to have a friend like you have.
in the ear biscuit where you talked about james and the shame, i could sense the miscommunication. im glad to hear y'all talk about it
so deep and raw. love this
Steak 'n' Schrimp dinner? Shrimp dinner. Great memorable broadcast, hopefully i'm around for 50th; I'm 69 years now. 😂❤❤🎉

14:15 HEYYOOOOOH!!!!!
This was just such a great conversation. Loved this!
ALMOST TWO HOURS? HELLLOOOO
the parallelism of 21 pilots on their christian band, rhett and link might have been tyler and josh in another universe
How I love this channel 🤩
Rhett and Link's friendship is what I hoped and expected my friendship with my childhood friend would've been, had he not moved away and become super-religious...

I can see link telling his mommy hey moms…. Stock the fridge with snackies cuz Rhett’s gonna come over. Hehehe
i am first woop
I wonder if Rhett had a pull out couch. I hope he had the same courtesy for the couch's sake.
Happy 40th Friendship Anniversary 😜👍
My best friend and I met when she moved up here with her mom from Missouri. 7 years old when we met.. we are both 39.. born the same month too
Me and my childhood best friend were born at the same time, on different sides of the country.
My best friend and I met in Choir in January of 2004 we talk everyday and see each other at least once a week
Happy Frienderverversary!
Meet my best friend on the school bus on the first day of kindergarten in 1980.
I'm surprised neither of them mention seeing each other becoming parents As a highlight
Great talk guy's
Such an inspirational friendship
Awesome job rued and link with the podcast drop a like for you.
Why do you keep calling him rued?? Is it a joke I'm missing?
Ying and Yang ❤
I bet link and Matt were Rhett’s best buddies cuz y’all had the best snacks bahaha
I cut off a friendship because my needs weren’t being met and when I never heard from her again I figured that was why cuz she didn’t want to be friends with me anymore. It hurt but I’m a big girl. I know I am a good friend , so if she didn’t want me as a friend then it’s best for

My youth pastor was a jerk and yelled at us, he also wound up marrying one of the high school girls later on after we moved away.
this comment is so funny
This makes me feel so lucky to also have the same best friend since 1st grade. Going on 21 years of friendship. This is such a lovely episode thanks for sharing 🫶
Im honoured to be born on September 4th!
If they don’t get a movie made about their life or at least part of their lives at some point I will be sad
I really, REALLY want to know what it was like getting to work on JellyTelly with the guy behind veggitales, if they did ever get to meet him
Is SEXtember ever coming back? I love those episodes.
yes i just saw them tweet asking for sextember questions a few days ago!
@@mackenzie1845 YAY!!! Thanks so much! 😊
Same! I can't wait! There was definitely a Sextember reference in the most recent Wonderhole episode, it was the first thing I thought of during the scene
Talk more about the Trip to Trinidad my home😊
1984... that my country's Independence year
@15:32😂😂😂
I don't understand is about iq we all smart but him specifically being special 🤣🤣🤣 he's in the US now so yeah 💯👍
I've had the same friend for 60 years
❤
can someone tell me what glasses Link is wearing??
Ofc link misinterpreted the task and didn’t ask any clarifying questions lmao
You two are like the Alex Lifeson/Geddy Lee of youtube land. :)
Good morning

I just remembered sextember. But im disappointed that it isnt sextember. :(

I’d love to hear from Rhett and Link why they abandoned their Christian beliefs.
Have a listen to the ear biscuits about deconstruction they each go in depth :)
