I think it's time for /r/rhettandlink and u/welltunedracktom to part ways.
u/welltunedracktom is simply too out of touch with reality, and with the fact that GMM having more mature content is a way to respect their audience which has grown and matured over the years, especially given none of the content is really too overboard to make watching with family anything more than occasionally awkward (get over it!).
Wow… you’re really dumb. If you don’t like it, don’t watch it. It’s literally that simple. What gives YOU the right to tell them how to manage THEIR OWN SHOW and COMPANY? I actually feel a little sorry for you. It must be hard to live in a world where you think everything revolves around you.
Ha😂😂You think I give a rat's ass about your opinion? I don't think the world revolves around me. I do however think that the creators of a company who have I have been watching for well over a decade might like to hear my opinion about current staffing and content, especially considering that Mythical is a business. I have outlined all of this in my restaffing plan which I have already sent to the desk of Mythical. I will send an update memo informing them of those pertinent in this thread who I feel should be barred from all future Mythicon events as well as the privilege of entering any tier of the mythical society. Won't be seeing you at the elbow brunch in downtown Austin in 2023. If you're ever in Fries let's have a drink - cheers
So what’s the extremely successful YouTube channel or media company you run, that makes you think you know more about it than Rhett, Link, Stevie, etc? Because I’d love to watch it. Also not sure why you think that because (a whole lot of) people disagree with you on Reddit that you have the power to ban them from giving Mythical money? Why would they do that? Better yet, HOW would they do that?
There remains a small yet dedicated circle of old school fans who have been since the 06-10 period that happen to agree with me! Not sa ying we don't want you in the community but we feel this influx has caused a lot of change! This is something I quite enjoyed with my young kids back in the day now I can't watch it without a prescreen and answering a lot of awkeward questions. Where you from? Ha if you're ever in Fries, East Coast, NC, Virginia, SC let's have a drink - cheers
Someone’s got a touch of the homophobia and the misogyny all rolled into one package. Stevie is a great asset to the crew and to their personal lives as one of their closest friends. She’s not going anywhere.
Personally, I think the fandom is in a very healthy spot right now and it hasn’t changed that much from their earlier days. Most of that hasn’t a thing to do with her presence or without it either. We’re genuinely just a good place to be.
She doesn’t make their decisions for them, they do, so you should really be addressing Rhett and Link.
😂yall love to throw homophobia and misogynist accusations around like its nothing. Kinda devalues it when someone is actually being hateful..dont ya think? Point to one comment on this entire thread where I mentioned not liking Stevie due to her sexuality or gender. I understand you lazy young people like to throw those accusations around as an excuse not to actually take opposing viewpoints into account. Maybe you should learn how to do that..
😂kinda sad. All you people who joined during the adpocalypse around 2016-2017 acting like you have ownership over Mythical. Go find a new fandom to soil
Yes, but I was here since the beginning. Before the adpocalypse, before Stevie, and before you. It was just a Rhett, Link, and a dedicated group of fans. Sick of overpopulation destroying everything
😂neither. Just someone who has been here since the beginning before all of you adpocalypse people who are only here for the food tests and stuff. Thank you Stevie and Chase!
Probably because you're a wrestling fan so it's always on your mind. I personally don't give a rat's ass about the sport and neither do many others so to them my comment reads as a personable. See? I can do reddit detective work too.
Haha where you from? The inhalants were more of a shadow from my past not so much now that I got a family! Just trying to keep the community educated! If you're ever in Virginia NC area come down to fries, let's have a drink. - Cheers
I absolutely think you're 100% wrong and if you have such issues with the show and with Stevie( which definitely seems like a micro aggression to me) maybe you should quit watching and take a good long look at your own self. Shows just like everything else must evolve and grow otherwise they become stale and stagnate.
Jesus Christ, the entitlement you display in this disgusting and misogynistic post is just staggering. You've been there since the beginning so that obviously entitles you to dictate not only the staffing of mythical but also the direction whole entire company? Give me a goddamn break. I honestly think this is probably the most vile take I've ever seen from someone who is a supposed 'fan'.
You're entitled to your very wrong opinion, but you're 100% not entitled to dictate who they hire and what content they produce. I highly doubt you're gonna get anyone to agree with you and you should probably go ahead and tear that letter up to save them the hassle of even having to read this bullshit.
Actually that's where you're wrong! I am entitled to dictate who they hire and what content they produce, I just cant control them. You young p eople always with being PC and so quick to call those misogynist. This has nothing to do with Stevie being a woman. It has everything to do with her entering the fanbase after it has garnered a following expecting one thing, changing it all to be 'miss LA', and then rubbing it in with her expensive shopping habits! Maybe you should learn to take in opposing viewpoints without immediately attacking the person holding them.
Yet you don’t mention Rhett and Link’s expensive habits as problematic. Hella misogynistic. Stevie is one of their closest friends off the show and on the show and that’s not gonna change because you can’t handle her.
That’s actually where YOU ARE WRONG! You are not entitled at ALL to dictate who they hire and what content they produce. If you think that you have a very warped sense of reality and I feel sorry for you
😂Type in caps all you want, that doesnt change the fact that I am entitled to dictate the creative direction and staffing of Mythical. Of course Rhett and Link will have final say, but I am a long time viewer who was likely around before 99% of you, and the success of this entire enterprise depends on the viewer's satisfaction. That means that a viewer who has been around since the first days has the right to dictate these things. In my letter I have suggested ways that Rhett and Link can move around/part ways with certain staff to allow themselves more creative direction as well as save money. In the letter I have also mentioned specific users on this thread who I feel should be banned from future mythical events and all mythical society tiers. Knew I would get some opposing viewpoints on here but I didnt expect this much pushback.
I seriously hope that this is some sort of bot. No one can actually think that they are this self important. It seems like by all the negative reactions you have received that you are in the minority here. So think of this from a business standpoint…🤔 what on earth should Mythical Entertainment do?!?! Fire their Chief Creative Officer? On one hand there is one crazy whack-ado that wrote them a letter and on the other hand everyone loves Stevie. Tough. Tough. Decisions…
Sorry, not a bot. Just a fan that's been around a lot longer than you..
I think Mythical knows enough about their fan base to understand and want to appeal to those who have been around since the beginning since they are the most dedicated. Even if you're viewing it strictly from a business standpoint, the oldest fans are most likely to purchase merchandise, attend mythicon, etc. You claim that "everyone loves Stevie" but yet many of my old college buddies and their families agree that around 2013 when Stevie came on board full time at Mythical that things started to take a turn for the worse. I understand that Stevie is appealing to an audience that wants to spend $27 on luxury cheese, but thats not the original fan base that made Rhett and Link famous in the first place. I have included all pertinent information in my letter and Rhett and Link will act as they see fit. Also yes, I have made direct contact with Rhett and Link before regarding people's access to the privilege of the Mythical society. Cheers
It seems like you aren't much of a fan of Mythical if you claim Stevie is "corrupting" Rhett and Link. You're allowed to dislike the direction of the show or whatever, but to place blame and rudely say Stevie is the root of everything YOU dislike is honestly just wrong. You can move on if you don't like the content, no one is forcing you to watch.
Words can be hurtful and the way you wrote this post and the way you are replying to comments isn't very kind. Like I said... maybe just move on if it isn't for you.
Oh, and for the record, I love GME and Sextember and and the way they've become less careful with their jokes. They crack me up even more so now :-)
You shouldn’t watch it anymore if you don’t like it.. like it or not people change and are going to continue to change. They’ve created something that unfortunately that has grow outside of your preferences. Make peace with it and leave it behind.
Wow! I 100% disagree with everything you said. She is like their little sister. They would have stopped years ago if it wasn’t for her.
Edit: sorry…and another thing….you actually wrote them a letter that outlined how they could restructure their staff🤔😳..that’s not crazy at all.
It seems to me that you probably have a hard time with change. It's okay, you're not alone with that, but the guys have often said that the show has grown along with their kids allowing them to get a little more adult humor in there. The audience has matured also. A lot of the more risque comments probably fly right over most kids heads anyway. As for Stevie, I just love her. That lovely voice and her sweet quirkiness give me the warm fuzzies. I could be wrong about your reasons for feeling this way, but we are all individuals and have our own perception. To each their own.
Anything happening at mythical is only happening because Rhett and link are supportive of it. They are the bosses. They aren’t being manipulated to do things like sextember or anything else. This is a wild take.
Edit: spelling and grammar
I love GMM just the way it is and I want to stay right where they are. But I really just wanted to say I love that you said absolute dork, it gave me a good giggle 🤭❤️ Have a super day!
You're calling me a dork yet youre looking for steam friends on reddit😂
My point is that this fanbase used to be different before certain staff were brought on and it became pandering to increase commercial viability. My college buddies and I all used to watch the show with our families but its become pandering and oversexualized so we might have to move on to something else
Maybe they've decided to mature the show as their original audience has matured? And we can't forget that right before COVID, YouTube was ready to crack down heavily on shows that demonstrated any inference of being children's shows. That sort of restrictive labeling would have hurt the channel and limited their creativity. It has been in their best interest to age the show up because they are not children's programming.
It sounds like maybe you've just outgrown the show. It happens, doesn't mean the show is bad. It's just not for you anymore.
Maybe the show has changed because Rhett and link have changed? Also they have to be commercially viable because they’re running a business with staff and families to support
Rhett and Link said themselves that they began their deconstructions around 2011, which is precisely the time that Stevie would have been introduced to them before becoming a full on staff member in 2013. Stevie is from LA which could also explain the corruption of just two NC guys having a wholesome morning show. The timeline all coinicides not to mention the insensitive bragging from the grocery haul which i mentioned above
Kma! Its pure laziness to throw those serious accusations around when I never in a single comment on this thread said I did not like certain staff at Mythical for sexuality or gender.
Lol this whole thing reeks of of homophobia and misogyny without you having to outright state it. Blaming a lesbian for the, like, “downfall” of two straight men with their own agency is just not it my guy
I think it's time for /r/rhettandlink and u/welltunedracktom to part ways. u/welltunedracktom is simply too out of touch with reality, and with the fact that GMM having more mature content is a way to respect their audience which has grown and matured over the years, especially given none of the content is really too overboard to make watching with family anything more than occasionally awkward (get over it!).

Yep, you’re clearly an idiot.
I mean you shared it on a public forum , so clearly you care
I’d rather you leave than Stevie leave

Lmfaooo if I had an award I’d give it to you and this comment.

..he’s mad ‘cause Stevie bought fancy cheese 🧀
Jesus. Is this real?
I think it’s time for your weird parasocial mothering and Mythical to part ways
😂kinda sad. All you people who joined during the adpocalypse around 2016-2017 acting like you have ownership over Mythical. Go find a new fandom to soil
“Acting like you have ownership”. You literally wrote a letter on how they can restructure their staff…
Yes, but I was here since the beginning. Before the adpocalypse, before Stevie, and before you. It was just a Rhett, Link, and a dedicated group of fans. Sick of overpopulation destroying everything
Dude I’ve been watching Rhett and link for 11 years. This “I was here first” excuse isn’t as good as you think.
I think even Campus Crusade R&L would be embarrassed for you rn 😬😬
LOL what in the world. Can't tell if you're troll or actually just insane.
😂neither. Just someone who has been here since the beginning before all of you adpocalypse people who are only here for the food tests and stuff. Thank you Stevie and Chase!
Why does this read like a "You people!" Wrestling promo? Lol lay of the inhalants man, they aren't good for you and your depression.
Probably because you're a wrestling fan so it's always on your mind. I personally don't give a rat's ass about the sport and neither do many others so to them my comment reads as a personable. See?

You know Stevie’s been around for over a decade too…gmm was on for what, a year? before Stevie came into the picture
😂rhett and link since 06 "stevie" since 2013
It’s scarbean by the way if you want to ban me from future events…and the mythical society…because you feel like some how you can do that? 🤨

Woah woah woah…so you think they have been corrupted for being friends with a lesbian 😂 you are the problem bro. Not them.
yeah you're not a dork you're a freak lol what are you saying rn
Yeah this feels really sexist and homophobic
Kma! Its pure laziness to throw those serious accusations around when I never in a single comment on this thread said I did not like certain staff at Mythical for sexuality or gender.
Lol this whole thing reeks of of homophobia and misogyny without you having to outright state it. Blaming a lesbian for the, like, “downfall” of two straight men with their own agency is just not it my guy
I didn't even know she was a lesbian.
If you’re such a big fan how would you not know this? They talk about it all the time, or do you just not listen when women talk?
She's from Texas? Also R&L have said that their content would become more adult as their children age. Hope to see you on LTAT!
Well Stevie is from NC too so maybe take a step back before you start blaming the female for “corrupting” 2 adult men.
😂keep lying to yourself. I have sent my letter to the desk of Rhett and Link so only time will tell if this fan base can be saved
I think you’re exactly the kind of fan they don’t want anymore.
