Rhett & Link’s ‘Good Mythical Morning’ Fetes 1,300 Episodes And 13 Million Subscribers

Good Mythical Morning, one of the most popular and long-running talk shows in YouTube history, has surpassed a thrilling milestone: 1,300 total episodes. The show launched in 2012 and is currently in its 13th season.

And beloved hosts Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal celebrated the accomplishment in signature fashion — with a special episode packed to the brim with influencer guests, birthday cakes made of ill-suited ingredients, and an attempt to blow out 1,300 candles (see below). For the occasion, McLaughlin and Neal were joined by Ace Of Cakes star Duff Goldman, Hot Ones host Sean Evans, Binging With Babish creator Andrew Rea, Epic Meal Time’s Harley Morenstein, and the team behind Sorted Food

. The guys also released a limited-edition celebratory T-shirt, which will only be available for 24 hours.

Good Mythical Morning has amassed 13.2 million subscribers, and counts 4.1 billion lifetime views. The venture received a production supercharge earlier this year when YouTube invested in the show as part of its bid to develop a slate of ad-supported originals. On the series, McLaughlin and Neal discuss science, tech, lifestyle, and pop culture — and also attempt a slew of taste tests and other stunts.
