Your friend says, “it’s okay, buddy”. Your best friend for life says, “seventy five-th, huh?” That’s the difference.
Link could've whispered, "We're still good." to Rhett in solidarity.

It's only because they don't know how to take full advantage of being rich. Their vacations seem hella boring and cookie cutter.

Same!! I love vacation episodes the most
As a New Zealander it was very cool to hear about your experience! Driving in New Zealand is tricky even for locals as the roads are narrow and windy. Definitely agree that there should be some kind of training course for new drivers. Please come back one day with Rhett and film some videos - some of the nicest spots and coolest things to do aren't on the usual tourist route that people take around the LOTRs stuff (although that is all really cool too)
Loving links hoodie and Rhett’s flannel this episode
Seventy fiveth was so in Rhetts head that he was even messing up the rosetta stone add 😂😂😂
You guys have been providing a consistent daily entertainment show watched by millions of people across the globe - it doesn’t matter what platform it is. You should definitely consider yourselves celebrities just as equal as other stars
“Make Way” signs are actually “Give Way” here in NZ 😂 for the record. Also, so cool to hear about your experiences in Aotearoa NZ!!
I have always loved trip episodes! I never commented to say that, but know that I know it’s something y’all worry about - I will always tell you! Please keep it up!
My brother does action sports and just toured NZ (probably when Link did tbh) and he bungee jumped off a bridge while riding his BMX bike. The process and safety precautions for that was “can I?” and “sure”. 😆
I'm living vicariously through this episode. Going to Hobbiton is a dream!

The Neals are so adorable! What a fun vacation!
My family owns the Waitomo caves. So glad you enjoyed it 😊
Can't believe I was in the same country as Link and had no idea! Glad you enjoyed your stay and yes, we are better than Australia :)
As a Kiwi, I've been waiting for you to visit for so long and I'm so glad you enjoyed my country!

The reason why the British drive on the left is due to your sword hand on horseback being the dominant right hand but also tracks all the way back to Roman times where the rule was "Keep to the left". Unfortunately due to the hatred between the British and French at the time we created the Highway Act in 1773 to dictate what side to drive on. We decided left and the French decided right, depending on the worldwide affiliation between British and French pretty much decided what side you drive on.

Keep the trip episodes coming! They're always some of my favorites and they're the ones I revisit the most. I still occasionally go back and listen to the old ones, especially the solo trip episodes. They're so fun! I get to live through you guys vicariously and usually these episodes come with the best stories and mishaps that make me cry laughing. So I hope you keep doing them!
I’m so sad the episode is over already, I can never have enough ear biscuits!😊

This gonna be a dang good episode 💯❤️🤙🏻 Edit: Rhett looks good in flannel, and I also really like Links sweater. The gents know what’s up
huge fan of the episodes about yalls trips. as someone who never got to travel at all growing up, it makes me excited for all the fun things i will get to see and do in the future!
Gosh their kids are so fortunate it’s crazy haha
Lando’s hair isn’t blonde anymore and he’s gotten so big.
It’s my lifelong dream to go to Hobbiton one day so when I read the title of this video I got so happy and excited ❤ So happy for you Link hopefully one day I get to go there too 😊

As a Swiss viewer I’ve always been interested in learning more about Rhetts Swiss friend. 😂 It’d be cool if he could be integrated in a video somehow
I listened to this during commute back from work, but had to revisit the vid version for the pictures :) Also just wanted to say; Earbiscuits will always be my favourite podcast to listen to! Thank you for taking the time to make these🤗 I laughed so hard oncr again, especially at the part of the glowworms thing where link goes on this whole tantrum/amazement like a little kid. I can totally resonate with that :) loved it
I lived in New Zealand for a year and it changed my life 🇳🇿Kia Ora ♥️

I live 5 minutes away from Hobbiton and still have never been lol 👍
Link - you can go on a jetboat trip in Southern Oregon through the Hellsgate Canyon. Very picturesque and has been used as a backdrop in several Hollywood films.
The signs say "give way" but they can be referred to as yield signs also. But there are most definitely stop signs lol.

22:32 Thank you editors! Beat me to it.
So happy you visited New Zealand!
The end of the tour was the green dragon inn. I went to Hobbiton on my birthday back in November and loved it and went to mount Doom and hiked a little as well. Also enjoyed Weta workshop. Loved everything about New Zealand.
I love hearing about their adventures!! That said, it is such a bummer to see Rhett in so much pain from his back all the time. I wish there was something I could do or rec that would help him. I see you Rhett. Sending lots of love your way
Love trip stories episodes!! Thank you for sharing 💜💜💜
100% agree with Link on the meat pies. Being able to just go into any random corner store and get a fresh, warm, savory pie was one of my favorite things about NZ, lol.
Being an Aussie we have a very competitive streak aimed at New Zealand and vice versa for them but I have no qualms in saying I agree Link New Zealand is beautiful They are very much like Australians Laid back and bare footed 😊
@karuptkiwi

As a Kiwi living in Perth, I'd have to agree. But while we do have that competitive streak, we also have a comradery that's hard to explain in some ways. I like to think of Aussies and Kiwis as neighbours in the same street .... "my cars better than yours, but if anyone f*cks with ya mate, I've got your back"

I want to see Rhett’s new tattoo on his left forearm!
Vacation/adventure episodes are by far my favorite hahaha
Don't worry Rhett. That's hardly a mistake. Happens to people at every live event and I've never once remembered who made the little flub. It's no Adele Dazeem :p
Absolutely love your sweater Link!!!!!
I wish it was, “In celebration of the 75th annual Hunger Games” , as that was my first thing to come to mind 🤣
the thought of me being in new zealand at the same time as link is INSANE i can't believe this is how im finding out !!!
Vacation episode. LESS GO!

I love your hoodie Link!
I very much agree on Link's take about the photo taking on vacation. Outside a handful shots, I completely stopped doing that. I used to have over 1,000 new pictures on my iPhone after every vacation and I would maybe favourite a handful to look at every once in a while, the rest was just clogging up storage. Living in the moment is much better.
I dont wanna poke my eye out 😂😂
Link is the reason my family and I started watching Survivor and now we can’t stop!! I really want Link to apply to be on survivor!

I'm off to NZ next month and this re-affirms my decision not to drive. :)
It’s ok Rhett, you’re still cool 😎 You just gave yourself a little Irish accent for a moment. NO BIG DEAL.
I look both ways at a one way street, so I don’t struggle in other countries. 🤣 I don’t trust anyone to be driving the correct direction haha
Yes I love Rhett and link. Yes I love ear biscuits. Yes I will watch whatever you guys talk about! 🤙🏼

Glad you liked nz bro, sounds like our chilled attitude washed off on you
What a start lol
I really enjoyed this episode. Of course Link, the craziest driver in America(and New Zeland) said he enjoys no stops or lights....madman *Hand fart noise*
There are jet boats in Wisconsin dells, wi. $35 last I checked. No waiver. No orientation. No seatbelts. NO LIFEJACKETS. And there are cliffs and other boats on the river and people floating down the river on tubes to no hit. And beautiful rock formations. We go almost every summer.
some part of my brain is so curious about how you'd experience my country lmao. driving manual, toilets everywhere, steep stairs, smaller beds, smaller towns in general, im just.. i can't imagine you liking it lmao
You were here in NZ!?! Awesome 😂
Love Link’s sweater ❤❤❤
I LOVE MEAT PIES!!!! Also, cave inner tubing sounds incredible 😯
Your boy was drowning in shame lmao
People often forget the first 3 hobbit movies, they are also part of the series people. My biggest connection with NZ is manuka honey, expensive but really helpful in cold. And NZ lamb, delicious 😎😎
At 53:24 I thought Link said "tight gorgeous" at first, but then I realized it was "tight gorges" 😂
We're all rhett!❤😂
Link: "All they can do is screw and die!" The fly: "... Well, I'm glad I got to live"

Old Zealand would be Zeeland, a province of the Netherlands, where the Dutch explorer Abel Tasman (Tasmania!) was thinking of when he saw the clam-banks on the shores of the Southern Island.

As a kiwi, in reference to the crossing the road thing. We dont have signs on the ground reminding you to look for a good (and very kiwi) reason.... if you cant look both ways before stepping into traffic, then natural selection has taken its course 😂😂😂😂

Also gotta add about the waiver thing ... we basically take the stance of "if you can't figure out your life could potentially be in danger, then this probably isn't for you"
There is a place in Alabama that you can see glow worms called Dismal’s Canyon. There is a camp ground and cabins near by.
K but Link saying that was actually really sweet
You go to the Green Dragon Inn, they sell shirts and models. Models come from Weta Studio in Wellington. I just got back!

I loved this episode so much! Please come to Australia again, I’d love to see you guys, maybe don’t let link drive tho 🤣🫶
honestly what rhett deserves for being a clippers fan lol go lakers
Rhett and Link, (Old) Zeeland is in The Netherlands! Its a province in the southwest
Link: you were never obligated to be in charge of your kid’s experience. You are a good dad and your kids know it. Rhett: No one heard you say fiveth. I guarantee it.
Awww Link! Our signs say Give Way, not Make Way 🤣 oh dear, quite a different meaning you took. Theyre pretty much the same as Yield 😆
Is there any way we can get Adam ray as Dr Phil on an earbuscuits sode?
Dang man. I feel bad that Rhett grew up in a “don’t screw up” household. Imagine your self worth tied to that nonsense. I get why he has to win everything now.. makes me feel even worse for the guy. …And the thought of Link driving on the other side of the road gives my anxiety anxiety.
He’s taking the hobbits to Isengard-gard-gard-gard-gard 😂 When you said Kristy was afraid of caves I was disappointed that you guys wouldn’t have done waitomo (Pronounced Why-TOE-moe : in English-English, not the Māori pronunciation) Anyway so glad for you all that you went through the caves and enjoyed your trip overall. Bummer about the weather, though proper summer isn’t really till jan/feb. Links accent cracked me up and that one sentence was pretty spot on … after that though, no comment 😅 Another note, fatal car accidents where international visitors have been behind the wheel are no joke. That old dude in Queenstown knew you were a foreigner and you were probably the 5th tourist to cut him off that month. The Aussie have creepy crawlies predators, the kiwis have you all blimmen tourists 😅 Btw when Rhett asked you if nz was better than Aus, the correct answer would have been Yes, end of story 🖤🖤
Especially on the ceiling
Come to Perth Australia! We have great coffee
Also Link, you’ve got to visit a bit outside of Queenstown. So much more to NZ than Queenstown or Auckland
