Going from Good Mythical Morning to Ear Biscuits is like when you meet up with your cool high school teacher as an adult and hear them say “bitch” for the first time.
Link: You deserted me in front of a new friend!
Rhett: NO I DIDN'T
Link: And I was telling him you would definitely show up, you had always been there for me, we've been through so much stuff together...
Rhett: I WAS SENDING YOU A BILLION TEXTS FROM THE MOMENT I WOKE UP AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN AGREE TO MEET UNTIL AFTERNOON...
Link: I was so disappointed in you and exposed to my friend
Rhett: ...AND I KEPT SENDING YOU TEXTS ALL THE NEXT DAY TRYING TO MEET UP
Link: Oh well I thought you should get a taste of your own medicine
Rhett: DID YOU NOT ANSWER ON PURPOSE?
Link: ............... No I did answer.................. eventually
Rhett: I KEPT SENDING TEXTS WITH MY COORDINATES FOR YOU TO FIND ME
Link: I thought you didn't...
Rhett: AND EVEN THOUGH WE DID NOT MEET I KEPT SENDING YOU TEXTS ABOUT THE WEATHER FORECASTS-
Link: Yeah you were a little tense-
Rhett: ALL WHILE YOU WERE CHILLING WITH YOUR NEW FRIEND
Link: Okay, I really liked being in the ski center. Didn't want to go back early. You are not as much into this as I am. I want to make this a regular thing.
Rhett: I WOULD BE MORE INTO THIS THING IF I WASN'T ALL ALONE TEEN-SITTING MY SON AND HIS PAL
Link: Ok true but you generally aren't all that up for doing activities...
Rhett: I AM. I AM. I JUST DON'T TAKE THE INITIATIVE. BUT I AM RIGHT HERE. I AM AVAILABLE. FOR ANYTHING. IS THAT UNDERSTOOD?
Link:.... Okay
Rhett: If you have an idea, doesn't matter if it's my favourite thing or not, I AM A-VAIL-A-BLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Link: Got it.
How it is going
Rhett: So Link is off to his spring break... I mean... it's Lando's spring break, of course, he had to do fatherly stuff hahaha BUT THE FAMILY GETAWAY IS OVER AND HE'S GOING SOMEWHERE ON HIS OWN AGAIN and I guess I could also be enjoying my spring break and not having to work since he doesn't either BUT I CHOOSE TO COME AND MAKE AN EARBISCUITS AND I AM BRINGING MY BELOVED WIFE AND WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT OUR LOVING TEXTS, OUR VALENTINE'S DATE A MONTH AGO AND OUR PERSONALITY TRAITS AND HOW WE WORK SO WELL TOGETHER
"A bear? What are you? When you're the gay dude with a beard?"
"Oh no the beard is when you're gay but you have a cover"
Can we talk about Rhett's knowledge on queer dictionary or are we gonna ignore that lmao he knows what a bear is? Also he knows he's not hairy enough for an otter and not sturdy enough for a bear? He knows what a lumberjack lesbian is? He knows what a beard is? And Link wasn't even talking about that beard? He was literally talking about Rhett's beard on his face?? Why Rhett though he has a beard? How does he know what beard means?
Rhett and Link discussing on Ear Biscuits what the new show is going to be like for them:
Link: I think we can have our cake and eat it too, because I believe the way that we are crafting this series is that we are crafting rewarding experiences for us to have. We’re crafting legitimate questions for us to explore that I will say in the loosest sense of the verb, we’re documenting that process, right? And so the product is gonna be a memorial and a representation of the experience we had, the things we actually learned and the way that we reflected or grew or, I don’t know, fill-in-the-blank, enriched our friendship. So I think I will enjoy watching it back for those reasons.
Rhett: It’s a way to also remember - it’s just like a wedding video.

They also talked about how they had to get a five digits insurance for one thing they and one crew member are doing for this show. They talked about a low yet existing fatality risk for that thing. I am wondering whether this is gonna be skydiving / freefall. I remembered Link’s “I just want to jump off the plane, you know?” and Rhett reminded him it was to be a tandem jump. I wonder if they took that idea / parallel and incorporated literally to the show script.
Rhett checked his laptop and quickly found that doing said activity is less risky than “driving to the location of the activity” and this is one of the first sites that showed up for me when I searched for freefall fatality risk:
