While updating the collage for the BABY FACES KBE project today I was reminded of something we haven't seen in a while on the R&L social media feeds.  For a long time, the R&L Instragram postings have included daily themes such as:

• Miniature Horse Monday
• Waffle Wednesdays
• Throwback Thursday

But the one that has been missing here lately and my personal favorite for a long time is ALEX EATS TUESDAYS. So, while I was cruising the interweb, I decided to collect some of the images posted over the past 2+ years and am happy to present for your entertainment pleasure . . .

THE  GASTONOMICAL  ADVENTURES  OF  MR.  ALEXANDER  PUNCH

(click image below for full size facial expression)

Follow Chris Crutchfield on Instagram @chriscrutch for some behind the scenes information on an upcoming video shoot they are working on together. He was there today for a wardrobe fitting and they are filming Friday.

I love everyone from GMM! I also love the community as well!

In episode #1 of Rhett & Link's Buddy System - - -

Benjamin Eck (former krewe member) has DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY credit and the entire Mythical Entertainment staff receives a "Special Thanks" mention (as well as walk-on appearance in the opening scene).  Unfortunately, the pop-up annotation for episode #2 is blocking some of the names and I can't figure out how to shut it off.

The entire Mythical Krew (including a couple alums at this point) - - hard at work as R&L begin their Buddy System adventures . . .

@Gumbo - Ben still works at Mythical Entertainment. He is credited in the Good Mythical Crew episodes: Produced, Directed, and Edited by: Ben Eck

now that I've got YT Red in service . . .

Hi, Paul! We do keep track of new crew members' first appearances in the group thread titled "What Are the Crewmembers Names?"

The thread evolved from just identifying names to also noting when new members appear on the show. :) 

Does anyone know how old Jen is? She's really pretty, but I couldn't tell if she was 21 or up to like 34

also, if you research her ice hockey records, Jen graduated high school in 2008 and played as a freshman for Yale in the 2009-10 season, graduating college in 2013 . . . so you can do the math

@Rosebella - I'm not aware of any official or personal announcement regarding Daniela, but her name hasn't been in the GMM credits for at least a few weeks now. Someone named Micah Gordon now holds her writer/producer credit. That would suggest she has either left Mythical Entertainment or is still on the crew but not doing GMM specifically (à la Ben and Jen).

Here are some new crew additions/changes according to the GMM/GMMore description box --

Art Director: Colin J. Morris

Writer/Producer: Micah Gordon (*introduced in GMM 1042)

Writer/Producer: Ellie McElvain

Group Picture Update -- -- from the Rhett & Link Facebook post ~ picture is titled Ski Bums #MythicalRetreat -- -- Feldman was obviously not available for this trip, his image added later, but who is that one über-preppy guy photoshopped into the back row?

Added Brian Flanagan to the list of crew members: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-flanagan-b556bb1

In the photo Gumbo posted below of the Mythical Entertainment retreat, Brian is the person photoshopped into the back row, in the space between Ben's and Eddie's heads (wearing a white collar).

I think we have Mike's name spelled wrong here. It doesn't have the second "r" in the last name. See: Twitter @MikeCriscimagna and the GMM and GMC video descriptions. :)

Thanks, Heather -- fixed it.

Was that someone new in today's GMM #1085 Does Dancing Increase Your Pain Tolerance?  performing as the shiny red caped backup dancer? Sounds like Link calls her "Violet"

@Gumbo -- That's Ellie! She's been on the crew for a few months already but was only officially introduced in January: http://rhettandlinkommunity.com/xn/detail/2452419:Comment:2257679

HA! plugged in the earbuds and now I can hear he says "Yeah, guys!" when it's over. 

looking to do a podcast fanboy of GMM. Is there one already or more the merrier.

There are several new names and a couple new faces in today's This Is Mythical video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZfvmpMWFDU). The new people who appear in the video aren't directly introduced, though, so I don't know who's who at this point.

Managing Producer: Cody D'Ambrosio

Editor: Karen Du & Meggie Malloy [Karen is also listed as a camera operator]

Does joining this mean I get the job?

@Gumbo - She called Ellie (sitting next to her) a liar in a pink track suit, not Casey the video editor. 

sorry for the name confusion - - - reposting below:

I noticed in the "Good Mythical Monthly Summer" email that there were four additional crew members listed by their first names that aren't given in the master list at the top of the group:  Annie, Kiko, Hadeel, and Jacob.  There were a total of 29 crew members listed in the email with their favorite summer movies.  I don't have a clue about their last names or their positions, though.

Good point, Susan. I recognize Hadeel's name from a recent Ear Biscuits where Link talks about going to the doctor for his colonoscopy; Hadeel drove him to and from the doctor's office. Link only says that she's their assistant, in terms of job position.

I did a quick scroll-through of Mythical Entertainment's employees on LinkedIn and found Kiko Suura, who I actually now recognize as a former Buzzfeed employee.

I'll add these 2 to the list on this page.

this has certainly come a long way from two guys in an "undisclosed basement location in Lillington, NC"

Maddie on Twitter pointed out to me that Annie from the newsletter is Annie Jaffe, who appeared in one of the first This Is Mythical videos. I looked up her LinkedIn profile and she's executive assistant to Stevie.

The recent BEHIND THE MYTHICALITY "featurette" videos posted to the GMM channel during the summer hiatus bring to mind how the Mythical Crew has developed into several duo teams ala R&L

• M&A = Mike & Alex ~ 10 Feet Tall
• L&E = Lizzie & Ellie ~ girlie things and lady bits
• C&M = Colin & Micah ~ Cooking With Power Tools
• J&J = John & Jen ~ original songs for Gum Swallower's Digest

I moved Saagar down to the "former members" section. Earlier this month, he mentioned in an Instagram comment that he's no longer on the mythical crew: https://www.instagram.com/p/BWVMgMnFf4M

Check out these Mythical Crew pairings in the BEHIND THE MYTHICALITY "featurette" videos posted to the GMM channel

Part 4 in the series - - BEHIND THE MYTHICALITY

Perhaps this marks the end of our need to track the Mythical Crew members...

https://www.mythical.co/about/mythical-crew/

A spot to apply to be a member of the Mythical Crew? That's cool! 

@ Victoria, it's highly likely that I'll be forever blocked from updates - - -

@Gumbo -- Oh yeah, shoot. :/ You don't ever look at GMM/Rhett and Link stuff at home? The new website is pretty nifty and worth checking out if you have time on your home network.
