  • - Today we ask the age-old question...

  • - "Will it spaghetti and meatballs?"

  • - Let's talk about that.

  • (theme music)

  • - Good mythical morning.

  • - We're wheeling some spaghetti and meatballs today, y'all.

  • - And a portion of today's episode

  • is sponsored by Google Domains, but more on that later.

  • - If we were two animated dogs-

  • - Okay.

  • - Sharing a huge plate of spaghetti and meatballs,

  • being serenaded by a mustachioed Italian man,

  • we would never attempt to do what we're doing today,

  • which is change such a perfect dish.

  • - Right.

  • But just because two animated dogs

  • accept traditional spaghetti and meatballs

  • as the end-all, be-all of pasta dishes,

  • that doesn't mean that us two,

  • not-animated dudes have to.

  • - That's right.

  • - Can the iconic comfort food be transformed

  • via wild new ingredients,

  • into something worthy of a bonafide

  • (smacking lips) chef's kiss?

  • (smacking lips)

  • - [Both] It's time for

  • "Will it Spaghetti and Meatballs?"

  • - Just setting the ground rules here.

  • In order to be a proper spaghetti and meatballs,

  • you gotta have some kind of sauce.

  • - Uh-huh.

  • - Some kind of ball, preferably meat.

  • And some kind of spaghetti noodle.

  • - We did "Will it Pasta?" over five years ago.

  • But there was no Mythical kitchen

  • to give those guidelines to back then.

  • - Things have changed.

  • - So today we are going in on some spaghetti and meatballs,

  • full kitchen treatment.

  • - And let's start off in dessert territory with cookies.

  • We're calling this "Spa-Cookie and Sweetballs."

  • Josh, what'd you do? - What did you do?

  • - [Josh] So, we have made a homemade cookie spaghetti,

  • and then we took cookie dough balls,

  • and covered those-

  • - This is cookie dough. - [Josh] In chocolate.

  • - Oh, my gosh. - [Josh] And then

  • there is a melted cookie butter sauce

  • with a little bit of fresh cookie dusting on top.

  • - So, I'm gonna taste this noodle here.

  • The noodle actually has cookie dough in it?

  • - [Josh] That is correct.

  • - And look at that ball, man.

  • That meatball- - Woo!

  • - Is just a dough ball.

  • You're gonna love that dough ball.

  • - The sauce is snickerdoodle-y.

  • - [Josh] Ooh, that's what we were going for.

  • - Mm.

  • - So is there any wheat

  • in this pasta? - You've snickerdoodled 'em.

  • - [Josh] Did you say "Is there any wheat?"

  • - Yeah.

  • - [Josh] Do you think there's no wheat in cookies?

  • - (laughs) That was a test. - [Josh] Sorry.

  • I don't know why I'm snippy, I don't know why I'm snippy.

  • Yes, there's wheat. - That was a test.

  • - Wow.

  • Man, I just have a weakness for cookie dough.

  • If there's a log sitting in my fridge,

  • I'm gonna go back to that log until it is gone. (sighs)

  • - But you haven't gone into these balls yet.

  • - I'm trying to use...

  • Oh, I did go into the ball.

  • It is...

  • Every piece of that is absolutely freaking amazing.

  • - [Rhett] Oh, man.

  • - This is the type of thing,

  • this puts a dessert pizza to shame.

  • All you gotta do is bring this thing out

  • at the end of a meal with friends.

  • Everybody gets an entire cookie dough ball,

  • and then scoops up some of this, some of these...

  • Some of the noods.

  • Oh, man.

  • - I might actually have a meal with enemies.

  • This would be a great way to poison somebody.

  • You know?

  • Because it's- (laughs)

  • - 'Cause you can't resist it?

  • - Because it's so irresistible.

  • - All right.

  • Will it poison somebody?

  • - Ye- - Is not what this is.

  • - Okay.

  • - [Both] Cookies.

  • - [Rhett] Will it spaghetti and meatballs?

  • - [Both] Yes. (jazz music)

  • - Before we try the next unique take

  • on spaghetti and meatballs,

  • this portion of today's episode

  • is sponsored by Google Domains.

  • - Google Domains is your one-stop shop

  • when you're starting to build your brand.

  • - Yeah because, to have a website,

  • you need both a domain name and a website.

  • People often forget that.

  • - Right, yeah.

  • It'd be like if we secured the domain Mythical.com,

  • but then we forgot to build a super-cool website

  • where all of your internet dreams become reality.

  • - Well luckily, Google Domains

  • makes the website-building process super easy,

  • even if you're not super tech savvy,

  • like two certain dudes who may have secured a domain name,

  • but then forgot to build their super-cool website.

  • - And luckily for those two dudes,

  • using Google Domains was super easy.

  • It had lots of helpful features.

  • And Google Domains works well with the Google platforms

  • we, I mean, they- - Uh-huh.

  • - Already use, like Gmail and Google Analytics.

  • - What do you think those two dudes

  • appreciated most about Google Domains?

  • - If I had to guess,

  • probably the fact that it's simple to use.

  • There's no coding involved. - Ah.

  • - And their low-cost, transparent pricing.

  • - I would say those are all very good guesses, Link.

  • - Mm-hmm.

  • - I would also say that Google Domains

  • makes it easy to look professional,

  • even when you're, again, not super tech savvy.

  • - If you wanna grow your brand,

  • claim your domain name with Google Domains

  • starting at 12 bucks a year.

  • Use promo code GMM20 at checkout

  • to get 20% off your first year at Domains.Google.

  • - Thanks again to Google Domains

  • for sponsoring this portion of today's episode.

  • - All right,

  • let's see the next spaghetti and meatball creation.

  • - Okay, we're getting trendy, y'all.

  • I don't know about your town, but Nashville hot chicken

  • is popping up all over the place around here.

  • - Mm-hmm.

  • - But we wanna take it straight to Sicily.

  • Introducing, boot-scootin' s'ghetti. (laughs)

  • Is this what we think it is, Josh?

  • - [Josh] It sure is. - Now to you,

  • it may just look like s'ghetti.

  • But to us here- - It smells way different.

  • - Whenever we need to celebrate in my home,

  • especially when the boys are involved,

  • I'm like, (snaps)

  • "You wanna order some hot chicken to our doorstep?"

  • - What kind of little victories in life

  • are you celebrating lately?

  • - Just the little victories, like getting an A on a test.

  • - Uh-huh.

  • - Sometimes I like to celebrate getting a B on a test

  • so that my kids don't turn out

  • to be the perfectionist that I am.

  • - It's okay to be average, okay.

  • - The scent is on point.

  • - Is this a chicken meatball?

  • - [Josh] That is a chicken meatball.

  • It's a chicken meatball

  • that we have then double-dredged in chicken fry,

  • and then soaked in that Nashville hot grease,

  • dusted with the Nashville hot powder.

  • We got spaghetti with a comeback tomato sauce,

  • so it's got the mayonnaise in there-

  • - Oh, gosh.

  • - [Josh] And some chopped pickles as well.

  • - There's pickles in the meatball too.
