The Mythical Shoe is Here!

It’s hard to believe, but the Tweak Rhett & Link Mythical Shoe is HERE! Of course, it must be revealed in dramatic fashion:

Thanks to the literally thousands of you who contributed ideas through your comments, pictures, and videos. We were blown away by the quality and quantity of the responses. We were also floored at how quickly designer Guy Marshall was able to design the final shoe, and how fast the Tweak team was able to manufacture the first couple of pairs!

We are extremely happy with the final product, and we think the Mythical Shoe is truly awesome, unique, and affordable. We look forward to wearing them…A LOT. Tweak has gone the extra mile and is offering two different color schemes to choose from, two sets of laces and a guitar pick with every pair, and a wide range of sizes.

Thanks for being a part of Internet (and Internetainment) history, whether you sent in an idea or just kept up with the process. Now, show your true Mythical Beastliness and buy a pair! Get the Black/Gray ones if you wanna go a bit understated, and go with the Blue/Green pair if you wanna make even more of a statement. We think the Mythical Shoe is the perfect back-to-school accessory, or the perfect casual Friday footwear for you office types. As soon as you get your pair, we wanna see how you’re customizing the back window. Thanks to that customization feature, it’s possible for every pair of Mythical Shoes to be different…just like every Mythical Beast. We think that’s cool.

So, comment below with your favorite part of the Mythical Shoe! Which pair are you getting? Check them out at the Tweak Store now!

Vlog: E-less Awsome Desk Sleeping!

Watch our part of Carson’s show beeeloowwww!

Caution:  If the pre-roll ad on this clip is for Macy’s, then it’s about a bra.  And we acknowledge that is weird.

Watch Carson Daly Tonight!

The fancy pants vlog explains it all:

Tonight at 1:35am, tune into NBC for Last Call with Carson Daly. Your handy-dandy Internetainer Duo will be making a special network TV appearance to talk about all things mythical. If you normally sleep during that time, stretch yourself and stay up. Or just DVR it. We’ll still love you as long as you watch it eventually.

Back in the Saddle!

We’re back in the greater Lillington area to churn out some more Internetainment for you and yours. The plan is to continue to bring you regular vlogs throughout the week on our second youtube channel. Here we go!

Here’s the video we’re talking about, which features both of the commercials our NC friends made for the Doritos Crash the Super Bowl Contest.

We may be known for making bad commercials, but these guys have developed the knack for making ones that are actually good, so help them out! Remember, you can vote for one of the commercials EVERY day through Jan. 31st. Every time you vote, you enter yourself in for a chance to win tickets to the Super Bowl (a value of $3000!). So, go and vote for our friends commercials.

Comment below with which one is your favorite.

Happy Mythical New Year

This year was full of some significant Internetainment milestones:

- Broke 100,000 subscribers on Youtube
- Tallied over 1,000,000 historical visitors to RhettandLink.com
- Signed with DFTBA Records, and released (well, pre-released) a NEW ALBUM.
- Released Looking for Ms. Locklear on DVD
- Landed a musical correspondence gig on the Science Channel show Brink.
- Featured on the Jay Leno Show, CNN, TMZ, E! News, Fox News.
- Two appearances on the John Boy and Billy Show.
- Link was quoted in USA Today
- Featured in a story on NPR’s All Things Considered
- Guests on WUNC’s The State of Things
- Ashton Kutcher finally started following BOTH of us!

But, there’s one milestone that stands apart from the rest. We finally created a home and a name for that special group of people who are strange enough to consider themselves a loyal fan. The RhettandLinKommunity is now the home of the Mythical Beasts, and that changes EVERYTHING [cue dramatic music]. Thanks for being a beastly Beast. Here’s a thank you song especially for YOU.

As always, we’ve got some exclusive content for the Beasts. We screwed up our first attempt at this song. Watch it here.
