Comedic duo Rhett McLaughlin and Charles Lincoln “Link” Neal made it into the top five on YouTube’s Weekly Podcast Rankings with their pod Good Mythical Morning, a show that helped pioneer the media format almost 15 years ago.

Rhett and Link have been mainstays on the YouTube scene since they first began posting on the platform in 2008. Good Mythical Morning has gained almost twenty million subscribers with its taste test challenges and wacky antics– showcasing the comedic chemistry of the two childhood best friends.

The podcast, which ranked fourth this week, has rarely made it onto the charts since YouTube began publishing them in May.

Checking in with the rest of the top five: Joe Rogan once again at #1. He was kicked from his usual place atop the charts last week by the Kelce Brothers– or more accurately, by Taylor Swift. The MeidasTouch Podcast, which topped Rogan last week, holds the #2 spot. In third and fifth are the usual suspects– comedy pod Kill Tony and true crime show Rotten Mango.

Famous faces check in: Tucker Carlson at #12, Good Hang with Amy Poehler at #27, and Megyn Kelly at #24.

Here’s a full rundown of the top 100 podcasts from YouTube, August 18 – August 24, 2025:
