- A real life Batman pleads not guilty. to obstruction of justice charges. - Let's talk about that. - I'm Danica. - And I'm Kyurie. We're from Chicago, Illinois. Good mythical morning. (cheerful music starts playing). - Good mythical morning. - This episode is brought to you by kKotulas.com. The guys with the goods. Where else can you get a mug shaped. like a grenade that says complaint department,

please take a number? - Oh, I get it. - Yeah, you get it. Like it would explode on you. - Welcome friends. Get it. Today is bring a friend to GMM day, And if you are a mythical beast who. invited a friend. - Thank you. and you, Thank you for that, and if you're that friend, welcome friend. - Welcome. Guys, listen, I hate to break it to you. You have one week and one day to submit. - You need to be more welcoming, you need to be more welcoming. - I'm moving on. - Get your mouth down here close to this. I'm trying to be ser-, no your mouth is. - I'll move my close to it.

mouth away, you get your mouth close. and say welcome friends. - Welcome friends. - No, more gentle. - Welcome friends. - That's it. - I was trying to tell 'em about SuperNote. I needed to get serious here. You have a week and a day to. submit your mythical SuperNote, join team mythical beast hold out a note as long. as you can, even if it's short, it contributes to the goal of us winning, Or maybe at this point it's just keeping. some sort of dignity and not being last. - Yeah. Not being embarrassed. - SuperNote It. - Link, there is a man that has. been in the news a lot this year.

- I haven't heard about him. I try to keep my distance from news of such things. - His name is Mark Wayne Williams. - His middle name is Wayne? - Well, that's what he says it is. And he lives in Petoskey, Michigan. I think that's how you say Petoskey. And he. has been dressing up as. The Batman. That's how I refer to Batman because that's. how they call him the movies, The Batman. - My favorite superhero, the superior one The Batman.

- and it's So he's smart. Right off the bat he's smart. He's chosen a good superhero. - Okay. Well, to become. - Would you like to retract your statement. after seeing a picture of this man? You said right off the bat, he's smart. - Well, I didn't say he looks smart. - Okay. - I just said he was smart. You know, looks can be deceiving. - Well, this case he could be. that's what you're banking on. - Right? - So anyway, this guy over, maybe sometime. in the last year he was found.

hanging from the side of a building in Michigan with. - Up upside down. - I don't think so with a baton type striking weapon, a can of chemical irritant spray, and a pair of lead lined gloves. - Are we sure this isn't the real Batman? Because this sounds exactly like a. legitimate operation here, lead lined glove? What's he doing, like handling uranium or something? - This is not the real Batman because. this is what he looked like.

- No that's him, that is the real Batman. I've seen the movies. Is that bat on his chest made out of duct tape or? - That's some kind of maybe like a leather material. But to me, the thing that really stands. out are his pit stains. He's working hard at this. He's working very hard, he's working up a sweat. - Being Batman ain't easy, you know? There's lots of anxiety associated with it. Lots of stress. - And I like the way he lets his mullet. come out the back, you see that, you can kind of see that in the picture there.

His mullet sort of protrudes from the back. - Where did this picture come from? Was this like on his Facebook page? - No, this was taken when he was.. he's all over the place up there in Petoskey. I mean, he makes regular appearances. - Oh really? - As Batman, I believe, yeah. But anyway, so he was arrested. and he was sentenced to six months probation. During - Arrested. for what? Being Batman? You can't do that. - I think he must have been trespassing. You can't just hang from the side. of any building, unless you're like.

the owner of the building. - Good point. - And so he would sentenced six month probation, in which time he was forbidden. to wear his Batman costume. Then he would, so he couldn't wear. his Batman costume, well it says you couldn't. wear it at all, he's probably wearing it at home, but he couldn't wear it in public. Then he comes out of hiding. He comes back, recently at the beginning. of October, and look at his new get up. Not only. has he upgraded - Oh wow. his suit significantly, he now has Batgirl with him. - Oh yeah. - I mean, look at this. - Wow. Look at her.

- This is almost legitimate at this point. - His thighs are bigger than I thought they'd be too. - He's covered up the mullet. He's got it concealed in there. He has an actual Batman symbol at this point. - Can I retract my statement about his thighs? I'd rather not have a comment. about me commenting on his thighs. - You can retract. anything you want - Be a part of it. - I mean, cut it out of the episode. - So anyway, this guy, about a month ago, he's out there wondering the streets, wandering the streets, with. - Well, he's, let's say patrolling.

- He's patrolling the streets with Batgirl. and they come up upon a scene of a car, a wreck. - Oh. - And basically, the guy in the car wreck has. fled the scene and so he's coming to find him. He comes up there and he is like, I found this car that had wrecked and me and Batgirl. decided we were gonna try to track this guy down. But Sergeant Jeff Gorno says, he's a police officer. Sergeant. - Okay. - He says, he wouldn't clear the scene, and we had a canine out there. and he kept screwing up the scent.

And I think again, go back to his original costume. I think the reason he was. screwing up the scent is because. - Yeah, the pieces are falling into place. - He gives off a lot of B.O. I don't think he's gotten rid of the B.O. with his new costume, he's just conceling. it a little bit better. - It's his odor-rang. He's throwing his odor-rang and it's throwing off the dogs. - So he has been arrested again. And the bat costume, Batman costume. has been confiscated. Interestingly enough, Batgirl was not arrested. She is still roaming the streets,

protecting the people of Petoskey. - That's the silver lining in this whole thing. - But this whole situation got me. thinking about you Link. Not just because your favorite superhero is Batman, but because, as we have established. on some previous episodes, you are a bit. of a local hero yourself. You have saved the lives of two motorists. - Yeah. Stranded - That's probably. Stranded motorists. - That's a very sensational way to say. that you helped out some people who were stranded motorists. - I mean, I pushed two vehicles off thoroughfare.

- Yep. - Like that just, I mean, I probably looked. like a superhero doing it. - Well. - Like, look at that guy pushing a vehicle. - in your own mind, maybe. - With another guy helping him. - But this is really Downhill. It's pretty amazing, I would think. If I had footage of it, I'd probably be proud of it. - But here's the thing, you're not. establishing any reputation for yourself. 'cause you're just 'that guy with the glasses'. The glasses and the v-neck guy. There's nothing there, There's nothing to latch onto there. - Yeah. You know, So I suggested recently that you should wear.

a cape or some sort of uniform of some kind. But I think this is your opportunity. - To go all the way and to. like be superhero traffic saving man. - And you gotta be smarter than Mark Wayne Williams. You're not gonna go up to like the scene. of a wreck and like track down, try to track the guy down. You're just there to help. And I don't think you need to go. with an established superhero outfit. because that's when you draw the. wrong kind of attention, you need to adopt. your own kind of persona with just some accoutrements.

Is that a correct word? - I could wear a safety cone on my head. and cut two holes for the eyes. - You'll kind of like a KU Klux Klan member if you do that. - Okay. Scratch that. - Don't do that. - Well. That was pretty much my only idea. - I think in the least you should wear. an orange safety vest. - Okay. Orange safety, but a mask too, right? Some sort of a mask. - If you wear an orange, - you gotta protect your identity. - If you wear an orange safety vest and a cape. Because no regular safety worker has a cape.

When you have a Cape, you are. - And an orange mask. - Okay. You wanna conceal your identity? - I have to. What superhero doesn't. conceal his identity, right? - But is it gonna be just like just an eye mask? Or is it full? What part of your face. is gonna be exposed? - Well, all of it except the eyes. just a conventional mask. I'll conceal my nose too 'cause I think. it's pretty signature. - And here's the real question. What am I gonna wear?

- You can wear a cone with two holes cut in the eyes. - 'Cause listen you're gonna be there? What are you going? - I'm volunteering to be your sidekick. - Okay. - Because I don't think there's ever been. a six foot seven sidekick. - Right? So you can help me push the cars. Cause that's pretty much all I'd do, is I get outta my car and then I push other people's. - Well, what am I gonna wear? cars. - I would like to wear something tight, tight on the bottom. - I want no sidekick to wear spandex with me.

- Okay. We can't decide what we need to look like. So mythical beast, we are going to hand this over to you. Yes, we've played superheroes before, but this is different. This is Link as Traffic Man, or whatever you wanna be called. - Yeah, we gotta come up with a, Traffic Man. That's good. - Traffic Man? - Yeah. It is the first thing that came to your. mind, I think it's good. - And I'm his and cone head, cone boy. - Okay. Traffic. - Put a safety cone Traffic Man. and Cone Boy. Please, on the community,

please draw Traffic Man and Cone Boy. - Traffic cone on his head. Don't make it look like anything KKK-ish, but. That's what, that's all we got for you today, people. I mean, it's the, you have to take it from here. You know, we're passing the baton. Rhett is an amateur dentist. You know what? I'm glad this is over because I need to go to the dentist. I forgot to tell you, I've got this. - All right don't. pain back here.

Listen, I didn't tell you. I've been reading a lot of Wikipedia articles. about dental things and I can handle it. Just here, open your mouth. - Okay. I don't have dental insurance right.. - I've got, I have a large horn. I need to listen to the back of your throat here. - Do you hear anything? What's it sound like? - I hear a plaque in there. Now I use this end that I just.

stuck in my ear to get it off. - Oh my god. (cheerful music starts playing). - Ahhhhhh.
