Rhett & Link's Book of Mythicality: A Field Guide to Curiosity, Creativity, and Tomfoolery by Link Neal, Rhett McLaughlin
5.0
Get to know the faces behind Good Mythical Morning and why they aspire to be bring Mythicality into everything they do.
It's one thing to say you and you're friend will be Best Friends Forever, but it's another thing to actually stay best friends for over 30 years with the kid you met in first grade. And yet, that's exactly what Rhett and Link have done, not only staying best friends, but also working together to create Mythical Entertainment and become two of the most recognised Internetainers of our time. In this Book Of Mythicality, Rhett and Link lead you through moments in their lives from the day they met in first grade, throughout college and to creating Good Mythical Morning and everything that has spawned in the past six years. As the title says, it's 'a field guide to curiosity, creativity and tomfoolery' - that is, a look at how you can increase the Mythicality in your life so you can be your mythical best.
I've been a fan of Rhett and Link for about four years now - I tune in every day to watch GMM and listen to their podcast, Ear Biscuits, every week. They're some of the few YouTube creators that I've watch continually since stumbling across their videos. So naturally, this book was one that I knew I had to read - anything to have a little more Rhett and Link in my life. Actually, I ended up reading about half the book before switching over to listen to the whole thing on audiobook, which I highly recommend.
Firstly, the book is so well set out visually - they've done such a fantastic job bringing everything together and creating pages that are a little wacky and very illustrative heavy, as well as having pages that a very text heavy. It's such a visually appealing book and one that you can just pick up and flip through to an interesting page and give it a bit of a read.
This book is very much Rhett & Link in book form. You've got serious chats, weird tangents and wacky scenarios. Somehow, you can go from talking about their childhood adventures, to giving hairstyle makeovers to historical figures, to reading/hearing about Rhett & Link from their wife's - Jessie and Christy - perspectives, to a quiz on whether you should get a dog or not, and then to reading Rhett and Link's own eulogies. It sounds weird, but if you know anything about Rhett and Link , you know it wouldn't make sense any other way.
It's so great to be able to not only read stories and anecdotes they've told on GMM or Ear Biscuits, but to also read new stories, see pictures, read notes and follow diagrams that tell the story of Rhett and Link - from meeting in first grade to where they are today. Apart from pieces written (and read) by Jessie and Christy, some of the Mythical Crew have also gotten involved.
If you're a fan of Rhett and Link, this is a must-read book. And while someone who's never watched an episode of GMM or listened to an episode of Ear Biscuits can certainly pick the book up, you do need to know a little bit about these two internetainers to truly understand and appreciate the masterpiece that is Rhett & Link's Book Of Mythicality.
This book is a fun, interesting, insightful and an inspiring read that'll have you truly wanting to be your mythical best.
