- Today we ask the age-old question:
- Will it Hot Pocket? Let's talk about that. ♪ (theme music) ♪ - Goooooooood Mythical Morning!
- A few weeks ago, we asked you Mythical Beasts to give us suggestions for
what we could use to replace the crust of Philly Steak and Cheese Hot Pockets, and
now we're doing it on this very special - episode of Will it Hot Pocket?
- Um, I was super, super encouraged by your participation. Mythical Beasts, thank
you for submitting thousands of crust - replacement suggestions. You get it.
- Many of you actually made hashtag #WillItHotPocket suggestions on a personal
photo of mine of the North Carolina sunset - on Instagram, so... thanks for that.
- You know you're into something when sunsets are eclipsed by the
question of Will it Hot Pocket? Yes. You took this very seriously,
and thank you for that. Let's not delay this amazingness anymore.
Today, thanks to your suggestions and with the 100% Angus beef and real cheese
from these Hot Pockets, we ask... (both, over dramatic music)
Will it Hot Pocket? - We had to get creative with these crusts,
- Yes. because you were very creative with
your suggestions. So kudos to you. And we want to acknowledge the fact that
many of you suggested the same things. We just chose the first one we found. So
thanks for all your suggestions, including the first one! We're gonna get
started with Jose Medina, who suggested French toast. (both, over dramatic music)
French toast. Will it Hot Pocket? - I got a good feeling about this one.
- (laughs) - First of all, look at this!
- Nice. All right, so you got egg-drenched bread
as a... well, as a crust. And look, we've got even some... you gotta
put some syrup on this thing. - Oh, you gotta.
- Steak and cheese inside of - French toast, man?
- (Rhett) All up in the inside. I can pre-emptively answer this question
before I eat it-- Yes it will, but... But why? Why would you wanna
do that when you can bite it first? I kinda wanna spread my butter
around. Get a butter bite, buddy. (Link) Butter bite, buddy? - Now, how hot is this?
- (Rhett) Hey buddy, get a butter bite. You gotta kiss it to see how hot it is. (Rhett) Hey buddy, did you get a butter bite? Mm. Got the steak and
cheese peeking through. - Oh, man! Oh, brother!
- Wow. I'll be your brother. (Rhett) Did you get a
butter bite, brother? - Mm!
- Will it Hot Pocket? (both) Yes! - We're off to a really, really good start!
- Yeah. Okay, this next one is a bigger question
mark for me. This one is suggested by Gatchi Tater Tots on Twitter,
who says, "Why not cantaloupe?" (both, over dramatic music)
Cantaloupe. Will it Hot Pocket? Now, cantaloupes are carvable. Whoa!
(laughs) This is huge! (Rhett) That's like the size of a
regular cantaloupe, guys. - (Link) How we gonna...
- Well, there's two of us. - (Link) It's heavy.
- (Rhett) And there's one of it. - And we're gonna go what?
- This is my half, that's your half. - Okay. We'll both hold it?
- Let's just go until we get to the steak and cheese. You let me know when you
make contact. Not with me, but with the - steak and cheese.
- Okay, okay. - Ready?
- Yeah. (Link) I'm not making eye contact. Mm. I got a lot of cantaloupe. I didn't get as much cantaloupe. - Man, you're like a shark!
- It's hard! - I'm afraid to go in at this point.
- (crew laughs) Let's just take turns. You
gettin' steak and cheese? (Link) I got a hole. (crew laughs) It's like gettin' steak and
cheese out of a coconut. Just cut it in half, man.
I'm impatient with this. (Rhett) Don't put your fingers in the way! - (Link laughs) This one's dangerous.
- Let's just unfold it. - (Link) Oh, goodness.
- (Rhett) Oh, nice. It looks like a natural cantaloupe that
just happens to have steak and cheese - as, like, seeds.
- Look at this fruit! Yeah. - Yeah, this is natural.
- (Rhett) This is like a brunch item. (silly voice) Martha, look
at the cantaloupe. It's warm and cheesy and steaky in there. - (Rhett) Mm, that's good.
- Will it Hot Pocket? (both) Yes! And now, moving along to one that I think,
weirdly, makes sense. Suggested by - Kat Rose... a pickle!
- Really? You think this one...? (both, over dramatic music)
Pickle. Will it Hot Pocket? Here they are. Whoa, these
are some huge pickles! I think it makes sense. 'Cause think
about it. You put pickles on sandwiches - that have steak and cheese on them.
- (Link) Grab one. - Like a burger, you know?
- Okay. (Link) It looks like a stuffed
pepper, but it's a pickle! You gonna go like a corn on
the cob or like a normal pickle? - I'm just gonna arh!
- (Rhett) I wanna go from the side. - Oh gosh.
- There's a lotta juice. (laughs) - I didn't even make it break through.
- I didn't even get breakthrough. - Wow! Whoa.
- The pickle is strong. It is strong, but this is,
like, state fair material! The taste is pretty good.
I'll go here now. (Link) I didn't think I would like
this, but I'm in love with this. - Really?
- I'm gonna marry this. - Oh.
- (silly voice) Will you marry me? Oh, don't do that please. But I think
that the operative question is: Will it Hot Pocket? (both) Yes! - Shall we move on to dessert?
- Oh, sure! Got a great suggestion from Jace PlayZ.
Great name. Any name that ends in a Z. - Yes. I've always thought that.
- Great suggestion that involves cookie. (both, over dramatic music)
Cookie. Will it Hot Pocket? - Alrighty.
- Wow. So, as you can see, we basically have created a cookie crust
around the steak and cheese. - I'm gonna try to pick mine up here.
- I'm gonna try to cut mine in half. (Link) Never had cookie and
steak and cheese together. - (Rhett) No.
- What're... what're you gonna do there? - You're picking up half, huh?
- I'm just gonna bring it to my mouth. - (crew laughs)
- (Link) I'm not even getting steak and - cheesiness yet.
- I'm gettin' it. I taste all the flavors. - They kinda come in waves.
- Oh yeah. (Rhett) And none of the
waves are disagreeable. - (Link) Mm-mm.
- (Rhett) I think the problem is, by the end of eating one of these, you've eaten,
like, seventeen cookies. - And that's a problem for who?
- No person should eat seventeen cookies - in one sitting.
- Well, you can take a little break and then come back to it. I'm
gonna come back to that. But will it Hot Pocket? (both) Yes! Things are about to get...
interesting. Suggested by-- - Can I take a nap first?
- No. You got more stuff to eat. Suggested by Michael Wilke...
smoked salmon. (both, over dramatic music)
Smoked salmon. Will it Hot Pocket? Would it surprise you
if I told you that... - Thank you.
- A, I've never had smoked salmon and I've never desired it. But when it becomes a
crust for steak and cheese, then I'm a - little more open, but not that much.
- Well, listen. You know me, I eat a lot of things. But I'm not a fan, typically,
of smoked salmon. 'Cause I can smell it - already. It's just smoked.
- It's not raw, it's smoked. It smells like a campfire. Like, if I'm
in a survival situation, I'm hip to this. It does smell a little bit like a
campfire. But Link, we're not here to - smell it, we're here to eat it.
- Where am I gonna... Where am I gonna attack this? I think I'm
gonna attack it from right here. - Wherever you please, man.
- You're liking the prospects here? - No.
- Oh, you're not? Okay, good. I just have a positive
attitude about everything. - Good for us.
- Oh, it translates to you, too? - (Link) It does!
- Okay. (laughs) - Look at me. Look at how I'm smiling now.
- Okay. Three, two... bite. (Rhett) Mm. Mm! - It just doesn't look appetizing to me.
- (Rhett) Can you taste the salmon? - Eugh.
- I can taste the salmon. There's a couple of directions that it
could go, and I'd rather for it to go out - than down.
- Oh, you're not gonna get it all the way down? I mean, look, I took a nice bite,
and I got-- Look at that. I got it all the way down. C'mon, chipmunk
Link! You gotta get it down. - I don't think I can get it down.
- Listen, it's gonna get worse after this, so you better get this down. (gags) Oh gosh. (laughs) - Ugh.
- You-- you-- you get it? - Oh. Okay. She's gone.
- (Rhett) Hey man, look. We did it. But will it Hot Pocket? - (Rhett) No.
- (Link) Not today. All right, this next one goes out to all
y'all green thumbs out there. (laughs) - (laughs)
- You like that? You didn't expect a - green thumb shoutout.
- I didn't. This crust was suggested by
Janeth Islas on YouTube... flowers! (both, over dramatic music)
Flowers? Will it Hot Pocket? Oh, wow. This is like a florist got
ahold of some steak and cheese! Like a special occasion. Like,
oh, Link's having a baby! Yay! Yeah! I hope not again!
I got enough of those. (Rhett) Okay, so this is like
a whole sunflower on the bottom. (Link) Eugh, it stinks! Does one of these
flowers stink on purpose? It's the bottom of the
flower, dude. It's this part. Mm. Stanky, stanky. Okay. let's just go
in for a dining experience like no other. Someone's gotta answer this question.
Three, two... (crew laughs) Oh! (gags) - (gags)
- (crew laughs) - I don't know if this is possible either.
- C'mon, let's get it down. - Oh, gosh!
- Get it down? Who knew flowers were such
a nasty, nasty bad thing? Mm. Yeah, I thought, oh, eating flowers... - (gags)
- Oh! (crew laughs) Apparently not. I don't think
it's gonna happen for you, Link. I was trying to get it down. Look at
my eyes, man. They're watering. (Rhett) You know what it's like?
It's like going into a Venus-- (gags violently) You're making it kind of
tough on me, at this point. Oh, you can do it. I'm sure
you'll like it. Swallow it. (grunts) I'll just eat a flower...
or some flower petals. - Kinda bitter. You got it down?
- Oh, look at that! - (Link) Uh oh.
- Oh wow! Will it Hot Pocket? (both) No! This next one is an example of Numair
Younus getting very creative... clay. (both, over dramatic music)
Clay. Will it Hot Pocket? - This looks...
- Like clay. (laughs) Yeah. It's a brick
of clay. What is this? I'm guessing there's steak
and cheese inside that brick. - Yeah, there definitely is.
- (Rhett) We should make this like that scene in Ghost. You be Demi Moore
and I'll be Patrick Swayze and I'll - reach around and...
- No, you can just be the other scene - from Ghost where you die.
- (all laugh) - Okay, all right. So much for that.
- (Link) Okay, so opening this up... - (Link) Ooooh!
- Yummy! Like literally, ooh. Not, like, oooh! - Wow. Steak and cheese and earth.
- It's a perfect crust! - All right, here we go.
- (Rhett) Here we go. Three, two... - Good consistency right off the bat.
- (crew laughs) I can't tell where the steak and
cheese ends and the clay begins. - I can.
- (crew laughs) - In my mouth it's not bad.
- Oh, well that's where it is. - (all laugh)
- I'm just saying, I'm pretty scared to swallow this. Like, the top floor I'm
good. Bottom floor, probably not so much. (Rhett) It's not bad, it's just not
anything. It's definitely not good. Hold on. You swallowed it? Holy moly! (Rhett) Every time I get ready to
swallow it, my brain will not let it go. - (Link) Swallow it.
- I can't. - You can't do it?
- (Rhett) My brain is telling my mouth - to swallow...
- It's like, don't be stupid! It's like - ground up rocks!
- And it won't do it. - That's fine.
- All right. Sorry, I'm bailing out. So let's ask the question:
Will it Hot Pocket? (both) No. Let's move on. Safira Dhiyani made... ah,
Safira, thank you. I'm being facetious. - Oh.
- For your suggestion. You have suggested... squid body. (both, over dramatic music)
Squid body. Will it Hot Pocket? - Gosh.
- Oh! Wow. - Eugh. Oh wow.
- (Rhett) They're kinda cute. - Oh, gosh.
- (laughs) Yeah. - (Link) Wow, it doesn't smell good.
- Yeah, it's like each one went right into - a nostril.
- (Link) Oh my. (Rhett) It's just a cute
little squid, Link. (Rhett) It's like they just jumped out of
the ocean, opened themselves up, got some steak and cheese put into 'em, closed
back up, and landed on this plate. - (Link) Mm. It is warm. What is that?
- It's his fin. That's how it propels itself. - (Link) Okay. I can do this.
- We can't just bite into this and then - give up within seconds.
- Be like, arh-blergh! Yeah, yeah, yeah. That can't happen. We're
professionals. We're veterans at this. I'm gonna bite, chew, chew, chew, swallow.
I'm not even gonna think about it. - Three...
- (both) two... one. - Oh! I can't...
- (crew laughs) Aaah! So chewy! (gags) (gags) You're makin' it more difficult for me! Eugh! (gags) I did it! I got it down, man! - (gags)
- (Rhett and crew laugh) - Hey! Bite,chew, chew, swallow!
- (gags) You came up with it! You came
up with the technique! Own it! - Heyyyyyyyyy!
- Ahhhhhhh! - Oh!
- (Rhett and crew laugh) - Sorry. You want the rest of it?
- (laughs) Oh my. - I was thinking you would...
- Put that down first? Take the squid out of
your hand first. (laughs) - Sorry, man.
- I'm glad it wasn't facing me. Oh, man. Will... it... Hot Pocket? (both) No. - Woo!
- I think we can all agree that we came - nowhere close to actual Hot Pockets crust.
- Right. I don't think they're gonna be incorporating any of our ingredients
into their upcoming products. But I am perfectly happy to satisfy
my hunger with actual Hot Pockets. And thanks to Hot Pockets for
sponsoring this episode. You know what time it is. - Hi, I'm Beth.
- And I'm Olivia. - And these are our bunnies, Rhett--
- and Link! (both) And it's time to spin
the Wheel of Mythicality! If you're into snacking and biting, you'll
probably be into Hot Pockets Snack Bites. - Check 'em out at a store near you.
- Also, click through to Good Mythical More. Imma get the crew in on this action,
eatin' some of this stuff. Squid body... I think Stevie would love to try
some squid body. (laughs) (Rhett) Link is leaving GMM to start a
cooking channel called "Linkalicious." - Rhett...
- Yep? (dramatically) I'm using my Tell You
Something Uncomfortable voice because... - Oh, I hate this voice.
- I've got to tell I am starting a new - cooking channel. You're not invited.
- (silly voice) Well, I'm going to use my voice that I use when you
tell me something uncomfortable. I'm gonna make it more uncomfortable and
I'm gonna say that the name of my channel and my show is... Linkalicious!
Eat 'em up. [Captioned by Caitrin:
