Can always tell when ppl go to therapy regularly. I have a coworker who takes us through mantra type morning routines to help us all start our day optimistically. It’s a beautiful headspace!
dude right they are a prime example of being such good friends that they keep open communication not only that but open mindedness about each others opinions
This is the kind of fight that, built up over time and not taken seriously, leads to resentment and perhaps divorce or dissolution of business partnerships. Link is great.
I really appreciate you guys openly talking about your fights and resolving them in a healthy way! Thanks for being vulnerable with that and setting a great example of how to talk about conflicts.
Rhett, if you have a family full of people with ADHD, there is a high likelihood that you also have ADHD. 😂 Also as someone who is diagnosed with ADHD, genuinely speculating whether you have ADHD or not is not belittling. It's only really belittling when someone is like "omg I'm so distracted right now haha squirrel I'm so qwerky I got ADHD" without ever actually researching the disorder and learning what it really is.
I second this! ♡♡ I also have ADHD. Pretty severely. For anyone else reading, it's a spectrum so some may have no idea that they're neurodivergent until they're much older while others, like me, it's blatantly obvious at a very young age. I very much dislike it when people say the "Omg I'm so ADHD," just because they got distracted and this one, "We're all a little ADHD." I've heard at least 3 people say that. It's not only false, but it's severely dismissive of my experience and the experiences of others. Those people are not informed. They're the same people that will dismiss ADHD symptoms and experiences and tell that person that they "just need to focus," "just do the thing," "I don't understand why you can't just do this," etc. Rhett is not that guy. He gets it. ♡
@@poppypeace4965 Squirrels are awesome and, the second I see them, I can't help but watch them for as long as possible. My brain hyperfocuses on them until they disappear. haha Thanks for clarifying btw. It helped me understand it was joke from a fellow ADHD brain and not a disrespectful troll. It made me laugh because I saw it after you edited it. ♡
@@absolutelynot7993 hahaha! i'm glad you appreciated it. i figured i'd clarify cause there are some pretty... umm... _special_ people out there who seem to find being cruel entertaining and i don't want to be mistaken for someone like that 🤷♀️ also thanks for the original comment- i agree with you and what you said is probably helpful for others 👍
@@poppypeace4965 Omg yeah! Why do some people enjoy being hateful?? It doesn't make any sense. They must be really sad, hate themselves, or something if the only way they can laugh or feel good is to be horrible to others. I don't get it.
God bless Rhett for his patience with Link, he interrupts him so many times despite giving him the word to speak. But yeah, great friendship between these two!
Seeing them work through a conflict as friends in such a well thought out way was really refreshing in a world where it feels like people love to fight
I loved the break down of the fight. My husband is more like link. I'm more like Rhett. I think of my mind like I get junk mail, bills, mail from past tenants etc. It's hard to sort through (compartmentalize) because there's a million things going on in my head. My husband however has all of his thoughts sorted -- no junk mail, just bills. He is a problem solver while my mind has endless 'crises'. I kinda just have to deal with how my mind works. I was not aware that not everyone thinks in the way I do. I've learned to not say everything on my mind to mitigate my husband's problem solving mode or give a disclaimer like I just need to vent for a moment bc my mind is scrambling.
These two have such a wonderful relationship, they are truly in a life long friendship where they have learnt how to break down a fight to see how it affected each other, how to descalate it, they are self aware and they are able to say sorry and move on by learning from it. They know each other so well and yet they are still learning from their interactions. I love it.
Two lifelong best friends. They are so raw and honest that it's admirable. It may be a bumpy ride, but the more they learn, the more they learn that there is a lot more to learn. Love it ❤
Deconstructing this ‘fight’ was so healthy?? If more couples, coworkers, friends, world leaders etc, could talk like this, with this level of communication? flabbergasted
I don't like carrots. So as a child my mom told me there wasn't carrots in carrot cake they just call it that. I ate it and loved it. Was 24 years old when I uncovered the lie! Haha
Link needed his paper scale to rank their fight. Link started saying higher then went lower because Rhett said 6. Ended up an 8. The Mythical crew scale could have helped.
You two are the most genuine people who are open with each other’s thoughts and feelings, and I can relate. It is so healing and refreshing to hear the candidness of like minded people.
i wish so much that casually going to therapy was as common as going to the doctor. so many of my friendship breakups could've been prevented if we were able to sit down like this and talk about it without residual spite or aggression
I grew up an hour or so away from Kokomo, Indiana. When that song came out, I was around 10-11years old. I remember thinking why do the Beach Boys like Kokomo so much...and it's not a tropical place. I was so confused. 😄
This episode was great! I really enjoyed the calm, open, and understanding argument breakdown and the healthy discussion about it. I also really loved the "today I learned" part and I hope you do many more of these.
double spacing was correct when typing on typewriters (before the electric ones) because the period key would throw off the spacing of the next word written. it would kinda look like this.with just a tiny gap between the period and "with". so double spacing helps you to visibly see the start of a new sentence because the period was sometimes hidden in there without the double space. now that we use computers, there is no weird spacing so we no longer need to use the double spacing.
I think my husband and I fight like this 40 years 🥰 it's so great they can fight like this 😳 think how many friendships could still be around. Love the podcast ☺️
I went to school in the 60/70s and learned to type on a manual typewriter. We were taught to always put two spaces after any punctuation or we would have points taken off. It was in the book. Lol. How times have changed.
As an ESL teacher the last buffalo sentence was Soooo fun! So, Buffalo buffalo, the ones who buffaloed buffalo buffaloes, buffaloed buffaloe buffalo. Hahaha
Evergreen trees shed their needles when the branch grows too big and they fall off as a result. A needle normally stays on the tree for about 2-3 seasons/years, whereas a deciduous tree of course loses and regrows its leaves each year
37:33 I had no clue what they were talking about so I looked it up for those that are also curious! An "apical meristem" is the bits in plants that grows roots and shoots! Trees grow from those bits, not the trunk, so that's why whatever you carve in the stem/trunk will stay there. Stay curious!
Uhhhh as someone who has worked in a bakery… there are definitely coffee cakes that have espresso in them. Soooo now y’all and the caller are today years old😅
I can't leave a comment on Spotify, so here will have to do. I didn't know about the Best Friends Back podcast until you all mentioned it here. It's been complete for a while now, but I'm just getting into it and really enjoying it. They're both very engaging and it's fun getting to learn more about Stevie, The Voice of Mythical.
53:00 I find the peanut butter thing super important. Just imagine a product sold as peanut butter that is 40% peanut, 30% corn syrup, and 30% soybean oil
In the UK, coffee cake IS coffee flavoured cake. And it's delicious. I also am totally with Rhett about the vanilla thing, that stuff is not drinkable at a level that you should be worried about...unless you do somehow drink a bottle of it, then I would be worried.
I learned that flavor extracts have that much alcohol in them when I was a teenager, from Family Ties because Uncle Ned (Tom Hanks) drank a whole bottle of Vanilla Extract, and Alex (Michael J. Fox) confronts him about it, and realizes that Uncle Ned has a problem. Which prompted me to go straight to my mom's spice cabinet and taste the Vanilla Extract. lol
“Drinking vanilla is not fun”, but it’s accessible to kids and, at least in Canada, more affordable for desperate alcoholics. Many alcoholics drink mouthwash too. It’s so common in some areas here that medical records will shorten it to “intox. Gingy” which is short for “gingivitis”.
My college had fruit waters at lunch and, let me tell you, if some of it remains in a bottle for more than like a day or two and it gets RANCID. Fruit water is great but make sure to at least wipe the cup/bottle down after you have it.
Sandals Cay (formerly called Kokomo Island) is part of the privately owned Sandals Royal Caribbean all-inclusive resort in Montego Bay, Jamaica. It is apparent that Sandals resorts has an almost identical island in their Nassau, Bahamas location called the Royal Bahamian.
I think the calling is aspect is great and much more personal getting to hear the voices of other mythical beasts, the tone really does change things and makes it more interesting. Also, I'm with Rhett on the buffalo thing, doesn't make sense after 5 to me
I’m a food technician and yes it’s important to have rules for everything like peanut butter… to protect the consumer… I could talk hours about this hahaha
Yesss! I'm a RD and I just wrote a comment about it! Food industry is absolutely crazy. If there were no rules they'd be putting anything but peanuts in there lmao
A friendship without fights is no friendship. It's about coming to terms with each other and moving forward together. If you are able to do that after a fight, then you can call it a friendship.
I wasn’t expecting a trip to target today. But to see all the different peanut butters/spreads…I have to try it. I’ve never had it with anything other than Jelly. Where has this spread peanut butter category’s been all my life man.
Rhett saying that using vanilla extract is an inefficient way to get drunk and that teenagers would never do it, when there’s people sniffing glue, inhaling helium from balloons and pretty much anything to catch a buzz
I think he was just trying to give kids the benefit of a doubt, which I understand, but I do agree there are dumb kids out there that will do this. I think his point of view is that a lot of those "DANGER, KIDS ARE EATING BAT SHIT TO GET HIGH" type of articles are written by people that don't really verify what they're writing, and it creates a bad stigma about young people.
Nobody is trying to get high off of helium, people inhale nitrous oxide from balloons which is the same gas they use at the dentist. Also who tf is sniffing glue in 2022.
The way to get someone to call down is to ask them where they parked. Completely innocuous, requires them to focus on something else, seems vaguely urgent, makes them concerned for their vehicle.
lol, I legit just got a spam call and it said it was coming from Cocoa, FL and because I wasn't really paying attention I thought it was the beach Boys song place😂😂
I've nearly come to blows with a close friend a time or two. Usually involving libations and us both having tempers and knowing what buttons to push on each other. We'd get heated for a few minutes, part ways for the night and then the next day apologize with a handshake and the instigator buying the beer. I know that sounds kind of backwards that we'd go right back to beer, but given how infrequently it happened, it was never treated that seriously. But to each their own!
vanilla extract on its own tastes terrible lol I think it's because vanilla is alcohol soluble and the alcohol also acts as a preservative. I make my own with titos.
regarding the buffalo thing, you can write it out like this: The Buffalo buffalo, whom Buffalo buffalo buffalo, buffalo Buffalo buffalo. then when you get rid of the unnecessary syntax you get the 8 buffaloes in a row
Link! It took me a long time to adjust to the single space after a period. I had to keep telling myself that it was "correct", just differently formatted. Like the differences btwn a friendly letter and a business letter, both formats are considered "correct". As for upper case letters... It's only problematic "electronically". I don't mind physically writing them, but when I'm typing/txtng it seems like such a hassle to adjust to the upper case setting. LOL!
My friends and I used to buy lemon extract before school for 99¢ at the grocery store and each drink one in a stall in the girls’ bathroom about once a week. It would be odd to smell like any other extract, was our idea. Not sure where we heard of it, but we were freshmen, so probably some senior told one of us and we ran with it. We waited until we all had enough money to buy our own on the same day. Why the cashiers never busted us or told my Dad is beyond me. My Dad always knew what we did during the day before we got home. 10 kids. He knew all about our transgressions before we got home. Dinner was always very entertaining.
Just now listening 2 years later haha. I, like Shepard, have drank a cup of coffee a day since I was about 7. Somewhere between 10th and 11th grade, I grew 6 inches in 6 months
There’s research showing that adhd runs in families. As someone with adhd myself, I appreciate Rhett trying to be sensitive abt claiming labels but that being said, if many ppl in your family have a condition and you get the feeling that something’s a bit different about you as well then that may not be a coincidence and might be worth investigating further if it’s effecting relationships to the point of causing arguments with ppl. I have the same issue he’s describing with dumping poorly timed bombshells on ppl and in my case it definitely is adhd.
Beach boys and halloween movie discussion? Its not often that I feel young being in my mid 20s but I felt like a child listening to y'all discuss those things 😂
In England coffee cake is made with coffee. I was so confused when you guys were talking about that. I guess you have a different system over there! Do you not have coffee cake in the US (with coffee flavour)? Here it's often coffee and walnut together.
I didn’t catch the tweet, but I didn’t know until quarantine in 2020 that your fingernails and toenails grow at different rates. I just never noticed before. 🤯
Never seen friends breakdown a fight so properly and talk about it like that, you can tell therapy really helped them.
My exact thoughts. So refreshing and impressive.
I want this
This is excellent conflict resolution and de-escalation that many of us can learn from.
I have this with my best friend. 😊
Can always tell when ppl go to therapy regularly. I have a coworker who takes us through mantra type morning routines to help us all start our day optimistically. It’s a beautiful headspace!
"What you said was [blank], what I heard was [blank]"
That is a very good strategy for conflict resolution. You go boys.
dude right they are a prime example of being such good friends that they keep open communication not only that but open mindedness about each others opinions
The fight talk was so healthy, I wish everybody could do that.
I love how serious Link took their "fight"....most people wouldnt have even categorized that as a "fight"!
He’s shamelessly empathetic 😅
More like argument
This is the kind of fight that, built up over time and not taken seriously, leads to resentment and perhaps divorce or dissolution of business partnerships. Link is great.
Therapist here-this was the most mature, accountable breakdown of healthy communication and maintaining relationships.
Imagine the first 10 minutes of this podcast conversation being done between world leaders lmao
Dang that’s some utopian thought 😭
@@claire9601 lmao one can only hope
World leaders are so narcissistic, they can't reach this level of self awareness
imagine the last 10 minutes lmao
omfg. imagine.
I really appreciate you guys openly talking about your fights and resolving them in a healthy way! Thanks for being vulnerable with that and setting a great example of how to talk about conflicts.
You two are very emotionally intelligent in handling your arguments. Very few people in the world I've ever seen like that.

Pretty cool how by learning that, they learned why we have uppercase letters 😃
Yeah I thought they might like that one called it in and was surprised to hear it on the podcast
today I learnt that my wife believed that a Reindeer was a Mythical creature just like Santa🤣 Love u guys!!

There is a Kokomo! Kokomo, Indiana. That is clearly where Brian Wilson wants to take people instead of the Caribbean.
I learned that flavor extracts have that much alcohol in them when I was a teenager, from Family Ties because Uncle Ned (Tom Hanks) drank a whole bottle of Vanilla Extract, and Alex (Michael J. Fox) confronts him about it, and realizes that Uncle Ned has a problem. Which prompted me to go straight to my mom's spice cabinet and taste the Vanilla Extract. lol
as a teenager when i learned the same thing (Today) i had to do some testing and research too
“Drinking vanilla is not fun”, but it’s accessible to kids and, at least in Canada, more affordable for desperate alcoholics. Many alcoholics drink mouthwash too. It’s so common in some areas here that medical records will shorten it to “intox. Gingy” which is short for “gingivitis”.

The irony of the giant "EAR BISCUITS" logo behind them as they were talking about ditching uppercase lol!
This is Rhett and Link‘s version of couple‘s therapy.
I'm just like Link. I have really bad anxiety and need to compartmentalize my topics. Especially with a task at hand.
Rhett's 'vanilla in the pancakes' revelation is so cute 😍
First Time hearing the podcaat its so refreshing hear them talk with an open mouth and mind!
The fact that Brian Wilson had nothing to do with "Kokomo," explains everything about that song.
Waking up sick at 4am best thing to listen to to try to fall back asleep. Thank you guys 😊
Feel better
hope you feel better soon! Rhett and Link have been the best medicine while I've recovered from multiple back surgeries!

The double space was originally because typewriters needed more space to fit an Uppercase letter than it did for a lowercase letter.
Call audio was real bad. Please put up subtitles or something I never could understand what they were saying
Wow I have so much more respect for link after this . So well spoken and described .. without actually saying it, Just wow!!!!! 😊

Huh...I just saw a Rhett & Link ad on a Rhett & Link video XD
Vanilla extract, interesting. Now I see why my local shop in Egypt sells only a powdered version .....
Just now listening 2 years later haha. I, like Shepard, have drank a cup of coffee a day since I was about 7. Somewhere between 10th and 11th grade, I grew 6 inches in 6 months
In the Uk coffee cake is made with coffee, so finding recipes for coffee cake that were American were always confusing until I realised this.
There’s research showing that adhd runs in families. As someone with adhd myself, I appreciate Rhett trying to be sensitive abt claiming labels but that being said, if many ppl in your family have a condition and you get the feeling that something’s a bit different about you as well then that may not be a coincidence and might be worth investigating further if it’s effecting relationships to the point of causing arguments with ppl. I have the same issue he’s describing with dumping poorly timed bombshells on ppl and in my case it definitely is adhd.
Beach boys and halloween movie discussion? Its not often that I feel young being in my mid 20s but I felt like a child listening to y'all discuss those things 😂
In England coffee cake is made with coffee. I was so confused when you guys were talking about that. I guess you have a different system over there! Do you not have coffee cake in the US (with coffee flavour)? Here it's often coffee and walnut together.
Kokomo is a real place that I used to live in. Definitely a place not worth visiting 😂 it was cool to hear you say Kokomo, Indiana though!
I laughed when Rhett said that's something they would do in the NW. Some little town outside Portland. Lol very very true 😂
I literally love how that girl told them the definition of peanut spread, and they still don’t know what it means
I didn’t catch the tweet, but I didn’t know until quarantine in 2020 that your fingernails and toenails grow at different rates. I just never noticed before. 🤯
