I love Link's excited commentary during Rhett's story. "Take off your kilts, we're gonna build a raft!!" 😂

Lool, link is so witty and silly. Always makes me laugh. Although, he needs to work on his listening skills. 😂❤️
Nurse opinion: having good muscle strength before an injury means that the muscle atrophy that occurs after an injury is less likely to permanently immobilize someone. An accident could have happened at anytime, but her having a trainer before hand put her in the best shape to have an accident.

You both are great storytellers. That punchline was everything! What a kick in the pants...or should I say kilt? 😉
No one: Rhett playing golf after his trip fell apart: “everything’s okayyyyy cuz I’m on vacaaationnnn”
An underrated show. ISTG ITS SO GOOOD
I appreciate all the love Rhett has given to the UK and our NHS in both this and the previous episodes, thanks Rhett! Yeah, roundabouts are awesome, and the roads in the Scottish highlands are so narrow because they're literally centuries old tracks that have been paved over. Some of those roads will be older than the USA haha.
Wishing Momma Di a very speedy recovery x
You don't need to blame yourself! Literally anybody in your group could have fallen and hurt themselves at some point. And it could happen to someone even if they were at home. Things just happen. 🤷♀️
*I got emotional during the mom story but cried harder from the shock and laughing about the "Irish Situation"!* Haha. I felt like Link looked in that moment, for sure. Wow wow wow. Great podcast as always! Much Love Beasts 😉✌💚
As a British person the constant use of the word fanny is making me giggle.

i feel heartbroken for rhett. to have every family member able and present to go on a trip like this was realistically a once in a life time thing and the whole trip was so fraught with meaning. to have that final plot twist reveal that that very meaning turned out to be empty just completely captured the concept of tragedy and comedy being two sides of the same coin. rhett, u told the story extremely well, the way u set it up was a complete masterpiece that brought us all on a whole rollercoaster of emotion. and after all that i would just like to say this: you finding so much meaning of being a family together at an ancestral site (albeit a mistaken one) is proof of ur great love for ur whole family, them sharing in ur joy is proof of their great love for you. u taking ur father to play golf (a sport that u have bonded over tgther in ur life) at its birthplace was a tribute to the great love u have for each each other as well. so it is also for jessie taking care of your mum to let u enjoy that, and you loving her for that. so it is also for ur mum to even be open to the training and the trip in the first place and u going to great lengths to take care of her then and now! I think we all hope u don't take the stressful and painful events too hard and that u get to eventually see this trip for what it really was, which was the Epic adventure of the north american McLaughlins, a clan that is clearly capable of some clownery (see: the great scottish/irish identity crisis 2019 lol) but more importantly a clan that is filled with great love and loyalty for each other.
Great story! Pretty funny. I'm very sorry for your mom I hope her recovery goes smoothly and fast.
I was waiting for the mom story ! thaaank the lords it arrived!
Hey, Rhetts mum is still a Cowan, still a Scot! Best takeaway 👍
Link calling out every typical white-family-photo-op pose and Rhett's photos of each one is the best part of this podcast.
59:27 Oh... My... GOD! 🙈 That's one of the best reveals of all time! 😂😂😂 Masterfully done Rhett 👏 I'm STILL in shock!
Accidents can happen. Glad it was on the last days of your vacation! The trip overall seems amazing (everything well planned and so lucky with the weather), family vacations with all the members together don't happen very often after childhood. Great and fun memories have been made for sure! The pictures are so beautiful and discovering your family roots is definitely a once in a lifetime experience. Feel sorry for your mom but I think she was glad to have taken this trip with all of you. Lesson learnt, now take her to somewhere relaxing next time!
I am a McLaughlin my roots come from Ireland. A Daniel McLaughlin was the only surviver of a house fire as a child. He was brought over to Scotland by his uncle and raised as his own son. From then on every McLaughlin family had a Daniel usually the oldest son. Being an expert in everything is also a McLaughlin thing. I have lol so much watching this thanks for sharing x

Irish, Scottish and Welsh all decend from the celts so we are all pretty much from the same group at some point and I bet there is a lot of Anglo Saxon in us all as well. To be honest it ok to look back from time to time as long as it doesn't distract you from where you are going.

We don't know that they didn't. They didn't tell us because it's none of our business, really. What we know of Rhett and Link, though, is that they are honest men, and I have faith that they did it the right and classy way.
Link getting deep about elephants is something I didn’t know I needed..😂
I bet your mom’s recovery will be faster because of her previous training. It was a great thing to do for her regardless of the accident.
I broke the shit outta my ankle, needed two surgeries to fix and i have a plate and screws still. Good luck to your mom!
Link has me I stitches the way he is reacting to Rhett's Story.😆😂🤣
Sending love & healing to your mom, Rhett. I hope that she gets better & fully recovers soon & that everything goes smoothly! 💓💓💓 💗💗💗
Love this episode!! I am actually part of the Loughlin clan from Ireland! Come to Ireland next!!

Lol I was on the subway training when listening to this and had to stop myself from laughing like a maniac when Rhett revealed that 'surprise' 😂😂😂
I’m dying laughing every time Link shouts something like “everybody take off your kilts, we’re going to make a raft!” 😂 I’m Scottish by the way! 🌈🏴❤️ I could’ve told you about 12 years ago when GMM began that McLaughlin was Irish but... 🤷🏻♀️ no one else did either. 😂 This is the funniest thing I’ve heard in ages. Thank you so much!!! 😂😂😂
Rhett and Link, I am remembering your families in my prayers. ⚘
This split up vacation biscuit brought back feelings of waiting for a new 'walking in a straight line across Wales video'...
I empathize with your mama. I've been in several situations like that one , but thankfully have never broken anything. Hope her recovery goes well.
Link should be drunk for every episode of GMM

One of my favorite things about Rhett And Link is how obsessed they are with centering their microphones. I notice it every video and I love it. Even this vid with two microphones they are off center but perfectly evenly off-centered.
A big YES to fanny packs! Since I have a kid, I never leave the home without one...
I think i would want to be with Link during the end times. he would have everything you need in his fanny pack. Pulling out full cars xD

Really hope you didn’t call it a fanny pack in the U.K. 😂
The ultimate plot twist @59:29 OMG 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm tearing up listening about Rhett's mom. She seems like such a sweet lady, I hope she's recovering well.
There's a thing called "Scot's Irish" which is basically Scottish going to Ireland, then immigrating to the US. My family is Scot's Irish. Vance is a modification of "Fenns" which is the swamps, so my family came from the swamps of Ireland and Scotland. There are two origins of the Vance family, but because of where my dad's family lived, I'm pretty sure ours wasn't the "nobility" one. :p

39:10 Link, you are the cutest. Thank you for being the greatest audience, and for looking like we would all be looking, and saying what we would say if we were there.
Thank God for family when you are in a foreign land and church when you get home! Great story telling, Rhett!
Life is a vacation Rhett 😂 I need the energy in this episode 😭😭
I wear my fanny pack eeeeeeeeeverywhere .. it actually makes my outfit look cooler 😂
I will say on behalf of my fellow Scots - that you referred to our kilts and sporrans a few times too many as fanny-packs and skirts. Probably best you dont come back 😂 if you do give me a heads up so i can be your bodyguard at least lol
I used one in 1996 on my high school class trip to Europe. Found it in my box of momentos in the attic. I was the only one of us in the group that didn't lose my money or passport. When I pulled it out of the box from the attic, it was dry rotted.
Rhett, I hope your mom has a speedy recovery!💞Great podcast! Loved hearing about your trips, and seeing all the photos!🤩
I'll forsure be the first one to purchase a mythical fanny pack! Best idea ever.
Oh no! Wishing a speedy recovery for the intrepid Mrs. McLaughlin! May her positive attitude and the love of her family sustain her and may her doctors and medical treatment be of the very best!
Rhett is a god of storytelling
So, does the fan that made those sleep masks for you guys and sent to you in the mail get a cut of those sales...lol (it was on a mail episode)

I think the Mythical Beast is just pumped they have been around so long! Plus, i think you agree to let them use items as they wish when you send them in to be on the show. They got them in this episode in 2014: kzread.info/dash/bejne/c56eqK6sZ8SumNI.html
my daughter lived in Scotland for years. it is lovely there. we found the weather on the East Coast to be grand most of the time. everyone should go there.
Both vacations sounded like really nice trips. I’m more of a relax vacay, so think I’d have liked Link’s trip, plus I always wanted to go to THIGHland 😃
If you go back to that time period the Irish and Scottish were very much intermingled and in fact the kilt originally comes from Ireland (without the tartan) showing this as well. They also fought together often against the English etc. So if you are Scottish or Irish from that time period you are almost definitely partly the other also so either way you still almost certainly have the Scottish connection.
It is so hard to deal with situations. Especially your mom. But you made your family happy.
32:26 has that dog been sitting behind link the whole time? 😂
Links commentary is unmatched. “TAKE OFF YOUR KILTS, WE GONNA BUILD A RAFT” amidst a serious story
I carry a fanny pack literally everyday. It’s so nice to not have to hold anything but also be holding everything I need! Team Link all the way (on this one)! And yes please please please please sell a Mythical Fanny Pack!!
I'm seriously still waiting on that mythical Fannie Pack yall 😂
I've already listened it last week and now I'm really excited to watch and listen it again!) Also I'm so sorry about your mother, Rhett. Now I'm gonna watch my moms steps when we are in our vacation in September in Montenegro, there are a lot of mountains
“THE RIVAH’S BURSTED!” I died lol
What an entertaining podcast, and so many great family photos! I hope your mother recovers soon, Rhett. Wishing your family the best.
i always listen to the ear biscuits on spotify n ive already listened to this one but its interesting to actually seem them doing the ear biscuit lol
Switched from scotch to whiskey that same night lol
I wish there was a place to comment on the podcast. I listen to Ear Biscuits every Monday and there is always so many things on my mind I like to say but it's all forgotten by the time the video is on KZread.
LMAO Rhett pulled a Link 🤣♥️
I would absolutely buy a mythical fanny pack.
This is actually hilarious 'cause it's so fricking American, thinking you're of one descent when you're of another, and dressing up in their outfits and having a full on photoshoot trying to connect to the culture. It's cute but it's also so ironic.

Oh Rhett the photos of y’all in Scottish attire are awesome!
You should keep the beard Link !
A sporran 🤣 perfect for weddings for holding your hip flask full of whiskey 🥃
I laughed so hard at "The Little Match Girl" reference.
Rhett didn't have to worry about pickpockets cause he's too tall, the damn Jean pockets are at eye level for most people! Ha ha.
One of the best ear biscuits 🔥🔥🔥🤠
I walk listening to your show but when you say here's a picture or something to show us. I have to come home and rewatch for the pic 👊 love the show
Hi from Scotland.... Love the show lads...keep them coming 🤗😉
picturing link walking into local places with “fiber” typed in google on his phone made me laugh for way too long
At Busch Gardens in Tampa, FL i saw an elephant sway and swing its head to the beat of the background music of the park, it was pretty cute.
