Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a podcast from Rover. We don't want you thinking too hard on a Saturday morning. So kick back and let us get you up to speed on everything that's bigger music and pop culture right now. This is The Edge Bottomless Brunch with Sean and Sof. Morning, happy Saturday. Welcome to the Edge Bottomless brunch, Sean and Sof. Yo, morning. Happy, happy Saturday.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Yeah, I'm excited. So happy I said it twice. It is. It is very happy. It's happy because I am jetting off to fear. this afternoon. I'm very happy about it. You should be. I've just got a little bit of an issue the fact that we have had a save the date on this day for months. We have it. Yes, we have. And you have chosen your girlfriend over your work family. And look, I'm just, I'm not mad,
Starting point is 00:00:48 but I am disappointed. You know how things go at the edge? They put in the save the date. There's a work party. And then up until like at the staff meeting on Monday, no one even knew if there was something happening. Well, we do have a little staff party tonight. So I'm so glad we're doing it this morning and not tomorrow morning because, well, you'd be in Fiji and I would be still in Ponsonby somewhere. It's true. Are you going to make out with Jesse and Clint's Paul again? No, Gici doesn't work here anymore.
Starting point is 00:01:10 We've moved on. Shout out, GC if you're still there. Oh, God. Also breaking down the biggest stories of the week, the biggest one being the Met Gala. One of my favorite days of the celebrity year. We're going to talk looks. We're going to talk who's been shading other celebrities. There's a whole lot of Jews.
Starting point is 00:01:26 We'd talk big interviews. Pretty much, we're just going to talk all the exciting stuff. from this very happy, happy week. Bottomless brunch with Sean and Sof. The Met Gala, which went down this week, one of the biggest events in the Celeb calendar, Sof? It definitely is. If you are not aware of the Met Gala, just open your phone.
Starting point is 00:01:42 There'll be a thousand pitches about it. But pretty much it is held at the Metropolitan Museum. It is supposed to be a fundraising event. So the tickets are very expensive. But each year is themed via costume, and you have to be on the invite list. So it's quite a big deal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:57 And it's a moment where, as you said earlier, it's the Who's Who of Celebrity. It's Pete Davidson and Kim reuniting for the first time. It's all these celebrities who have dated, who are you with? What are you dressing up as? Some interesting outfits this year. Do you know I read a story about like skincare? These celebrities have been prepping for like three, four months to make sure.
Starting point is 00:02:20 I have the hiccups. That their skin is clear on the day. How do they prepare for the hiccups? Is there a four months routine for that? I was just like, I could feel a hiccups. coming and that's my biggest fear on air. It's also sneezing. That's another big fear of mine. That's completely irrelevant to the Met Gala. I've got my top three outfits, worst three outfits.
Starting point is 00:02:38 Ooh, okay. I want to see if you agree. Top three, Emma Chamberlain. Second outfit, not the powder blue one. Okay, yeah, she was good. Takeaway T-D. Stunning, number one, absolute icon. Doa Leaper. Yes, do a leaper. If you want to see these pictures as well, just head on over to the edge.com.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Because we've got a full wrap. Okay, what are your three worst? Kendall Jenner. Wow! Wow! We agree. Which can see. me because then it makes me think that we have a similar fashion taste and I do not like that. Why? I thought we both dress cool. You don't like that. You don't think I'm fashionable? You wear crocs. You wear crocs? You wear crocs? You wear crocs? You wear too many crocs. Well, she is true terribly. Okay. She didn't wear crocs in the Met girl. It might have improved her outfit.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Didn't like it. She dressed like she was a 13 year old going to a ballet recital. Yes, not great. Rihanna, controversially. I know people liked it. Leave the studio. I didn't like it. the studio. She was like... She can do no wrong. She flowers around her head, the big like ivory. She was dressed like the Carl Lagerfeld version of her Power Puff girls that performed at the
Starting point is 00:03:39 Rihanna Super Bowl performance. Facts. It was a nod. And the worst one, I wonder if we can both guess this. Ready? Three, two, one. Jared Letto. Jared Leto's cat outfit was iconic. Okay, Lil Nasx. He wore a mascot outfit like a cat. And Lil Nasex wore a G-string
Starting point is 00:03:56 and covered himself in silver paint, and it was horrific on the eyes. Yeah, I'm like, it's just, is it gone too far? Yes, I saw full, full sackage. Yeah, there's a lot of the air. Yeah. Well, that was fun. Let's move on.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Yeah, well, we'll break down more of the interviews later on. My favourite one of those being Doja Cats interview, she also dressed like a cat. Oh, she had some really groundbreaking stuff to say. We'll get to that soon. Wait, so who made it? Mow. Stunning. Bottomless brunch with Sean and Soff.
Starting point is 00:04:25 I am off to Fiji. Yeah, so a question that is rather pertinent. to ask, how do I say goodbye to a co-host, a friend, a betrayal, who is not showing up to the edge party this afternoon? I'm not emigrating to Fiji. I'm just going for one week. What word? What are you not doing? Immigrating.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Pause the music. Yeah. It's not emigrating. No, it is. Immigrating is when you leave. It's immigrating. No, immigrating is a word is so. Immigrating. No, it's not. It's... Wait. Yeah. Immigrating versus immigrating.
Starting point is 00:04:55 Immigrating means to leave one's own country in all. order to permanently go to another. Boom! I used it correctly. No, you didn't, because you said emigrating to Fiji. Yep. So you're not...
Starting point is 00:05:06 No, you'd be immigrating to Fiji. You'd be emigrating from New Zealand. No. Here's the example on Oxford Language.com. This is the example, Rose's parents emigrated to Australia. If I was to say I'm immigrating to Fiji, that would be grammatically incorrect.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Fine. So you're going to Fiji and you're not going to live there. I'm not emigrating. That's such an annoying. Word of the day today. On the edge bottomless brunch. Immigrating. When you were to leave your country
Starting point is 00:05:36 and live in another... Often used if you're a wanker. It's good on you. I bought hats. Yes. Is this what this package is? I got to the hats later on though. I bought customised hats for everyone. But there's still the
Starting point is 00:05:49 big decision I need to make. When I decided I was going to Fiji with my girlfriend's family, they vetoed me wearing my budgie smugglers in the group chat. I have them sitting on the edge of my suitcase. I am yet to pack them and I don't know whether I just commit to it and go budgy smugglers, no board shorts for the whole trap, or I, as per Jeannie's Brothers request, wear boardies. I'd like to rewind the tape, maybe 10, 15 minutes. Have we not learned anything
Starting point is 00:06:15 from Lil Nas X, who showed up to the Met Gala in a jock strap and sock over his bits? And everyone found it horrific. It was too much of an eye, fill. It was way too confronting, you put it as the worst dress. Now you are suggesting you are about to wear a balsack protector in front of your friends, family and mother-in-law. Wearing a budgie smuggler to the beach and wearing a spaceman thong to the Met Gala on different ends of the spectrum. I see no difference.
Starting point is 00:06:46 Entirely different ends of the spectrum. By that logic, you should have to wear board shorts. Fine. I'm not going to Fiji. I've seen some of your swimsuit so. Yeah. More revealing than a budgie smuggler? Well, have you got an issue? Little Niles of the Met Gala!
Starting point is 00:07:00 Bottomless brunch with Sean and Sof. New music from Nile Horan coming out this week as well. His new single, Meltdown, Annie did an interview with pride.com where he talked about his favorite One Direction back catalog songs that he's still listening to. I love this, though, the nostalgia behind it, the fact that they're still listening to their music.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Do you think if you're a musician, you'd listen to your songs? I don't think so, because I think you get so sick of it. But I think like one day in Nile, time passes enough that you can go back to it. Right. So if DJ Sean Hill made a song like six, seven years ago, you'd listen to it now. Oh, yeah. I did. It was terrible. Oh, good enough. A lot of deep cuts, songs that probably a lot of people don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Fireproof? Drag me down. Drag me down is a good one. Story of my life. There's a few. There's a few. There was a lot of songs. I love those so much. So those are the ones we know.
Starting point is 00:07:56 He said, Drag Me Down, Story of My Life. Which I agree with. Those are my two favourites. Fireproof. Never heard of it. I had to dig to find Fireproof. Never heard of it in my life. I had the albums.
Starting point is 00:08:08 1D4. It's a real deep cut, and it's not a good song. Okay, play it. This is Fireproof by One Direction. This doesn't go anywhere. That's the whole song. That's the best part of the whole song. Was that Nile singing that?
Starting point is 00:08:38 it because maybe that was his favourite selfishly because he was the one that was fronting it and he was like let's make this song big again let's do a tick tock off and if we can get fireproof there then my vocals can be better or they had like writing splits on their songs and whoever wrote the song got the most paycheck for it and that's like the one that he wrote on the album so he's trying to push it out there he's got no money from it because it is not a good track sorry no I'll be listening to drag me down oh this song just makes you want to like Slap yourself. Silly. Bottomless brunch with Sean and Sov.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Obviously, I come to you with relationship advice, Sean. Relationship advice? So you come to me and I'm in a long-term committed relationship and you're here, serial dating and like, Sean, here's what you should do, man. I give you advice on your life. No, I would like to ask for some advice on a relationship because as you say and constantly rub in my face, you are in a beautiful loving and committed relationship.
Starting point is 00:09:37 and you're off to Fiji with your beautiful girlfriend. Yeah, love of my life. So I do love a little holiday with a loved one. Do you want to come with us? No, that's my question. Can I third bill? No, I want to know your perspective on booking a holiday with someone that you don't really know well.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Yay or nay. I'm talking like very, very early doors. Okay, this is clearly something that you're processing and thinking about and are going to do regardless of what I say. No, no, I love your advice. I love anyone's advice. Okay. Where and how long?
Starting point is 00:10:11 Potentially, either somewhere around New Zealand, so we could do like a little, what we live in different city. So maybe like a different little city meet up or a Queensland or over to Australia. Yeah. For a weekend? Yeah. Yeah. Sweet. Really?
Starting point is 00:10:25 Yeah. Jeannie and I, when we were, we've been dating like three weeks. And it wasn't that intense because it was a couple of my friends. We're going to go out of town. And they were going to stay at a batch. and it was like somewhere two hours away like up in the Coramandel or something and I asked her if she could come
Starting point is 00:10:40 No but did you go with a group So you were with a group What if it was So say you just met Jeannie Rewind and you have gone on like One coffee date with her No I wouldn't have You wouldn't have gone
Starting point is 00:10:51 But I don't think it's the worst thing Especially if you as you say They live in different cities Like there's not many other ways to do it And if you it's about whether you trust them Because that can be quite unsafe If you really don't know them Yeah true
Starting point is 00:11:00 I've done it once before Actually no I've done it twice Yes okay no I've done it a couple This is why I said You're going to do it. But I'd love to know if anyone else is listening and they have gone on a risk. Like, that's what it was like. You can text us on 3343.
Starting point is 00:11:15 But I just wanted to know if people think you should spend more time getting to know someone first or just be like, you know what? Because if you go on a holiday with someone and you see how they live, how they treat staff, how they sleep, not in a creepy way, you will fast forward the process and realize if you want to be with that person or not. Yeah, you're definitely going to realize by the end of the weekend. You're going to fast track some things. Let me know how it goes. I'm incredibly invested.
Starting point is 00:11:39 We'll see if I'm here next weekend for bottomless brunch. What? A loping? No, I just made you away for the week. Oh, okay. Bottomless brunch with Sean and Sof. Sof, how hot do you think we are as a show? Oh, smoking, baby.
Starting point is 00:11:53 I thought so too. We are, you know what we are? Tall. We're tall? We are the tallest show together. Sof's six foot. I'm six foot three. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:02 So this all started when Cal from the office did a TikTok a few weeks ago. He went around and asked everyone who the hottest person at the edge was, and neither so far as I were mentioned. And now that that's fine, right? There's a lot of Clint Randall, very attractive guy. Look, I don't know why you're doing this, Sean, because after those results come in, I'm a very sensitive soul, and I just don't want my feelings hurt, and you're about to hurt my feelings. And I just want you to know that if you hurt my feelings, the show will go significantly downhill between now and 10 o'clock. Well, I won't hit your feelings. AI Hot Chat 3000 will.
Starting point is 00:12:38 If you haven't heard of Hot Chat 3,000, essentially it's this website where you put in a picture and it will rate you out of 10, which is some black mirror type bull. Like, it's crazy, but everyone's been doing it. Sean behind the scenes has gone and got three photos of us. Can you just say you didn't use my edge photo? Because that is probably... I use three photos. The worst photo I've ever seen me.
Starting point is 00:12:58 I use three photos and your three photos were three of the last five on your Instagram. they have the best shot of you. So you've chosen these. Oh, damn. You've gone, I look good in these. No, no. And mine, I use good photos as well. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:13:12 So he's good photos of both of us. Oh, no, no, no. One of mine is a selfie and it's already. Okay, okay. Sophie. Yes. Who do you think was hotter out of you or I according to AI? Sean, you'll be hotter according to AI.
Starting point is 00:13:25 This is your rating. Okay. I put through three photos of you. Yes. Your first rating is out of 10? Yeah. 7.3. I'll take that, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Your second rating, seven. Okay. Your third one, seven point four. All right, around the seven-ish. I will take it. I will take it. Yep, okay, what did you? You're going to be bloody eight or nine.
Starting point is 00:13:48 My first photo. Yeah. Got a rating. Shut up. Of 2.8. 2.2.8. My second photo. I didn't think they did ratings of two.
Starting point is 00:14:09 everyone gets a four at minimum once you select once it gives you your rating you can choose to match and talk with someone with your same rating and I clicked on it oh my second one was 4.5 yeah okay so fours
Starting point is 00:14:27 and my third one was 4.6 with an average rating of 3.9 so you had a rating of 7.2 and I had a rating of 3.9 and out of interest I put my girlfriend in oh yeah and she got a rating of 8.5 you are
Starting point is 00:14:42 She could date two of me. I got 2.8. Out of 10. I didn't think when everyone at the work start, no one got below 5. Do you know what it is? AI knows you're hot and it's smart and it's little AI brain. Look at this. Look at the photos.
Starting point is 00:15:00 And it's trying to put you out of your confidence. Do you know what it is? I've just worked it out. Sometimes when I talk in a sentence, I get to where I'm going just like thinking. Good photos. That was a good photo. It was a model photo. It was a model photo.
Starting point is 00:15:11 Well, that's rough. That is a rough, rough score. No way, I was going somewhere with my train of thought. Making it all about me. Yes. You are overconfident and you will often say if someone's like, hey, you look really good, you turn around and go, yeah, I know. Or like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Yeah, as a joke. Well, AI knows this because it's been listening on your phone. And it's like, you know what? We need to humble him. We need to make him down a peg. I appreciate you trying to make me feel better, but I don't think AI is that advanced. Guys, I'm a seven point too. Woo!
Starting point is 00:15:40 Bottomless brunch with Sean and Sofe. God. I am kind of glad Sam Smith didn't go to the Met Gallo this year because that outfit would have been something else. Yeah, yeah. No, a lot of celebrities choosing not to attend this year because it was a little controversial with Carl Largafell being the theme. He's said some quite critical things in the past.
Starting point is 00:15:59 And I think some celebrities were sort of urging to boycott. But of course, it's such a big event. You're going to have people show up. Yeah. And wearing extreme outfits. Oh, yeah. Little Nazex. In like a spaceman thong and silver gems.
Starting point is 00:16:15 And yet still, you want to wear a budgie smuggler to Fiji. It's not different. They are so different. Now, earlier in the show, we discussed our best and worst looks. If you want to see any, you can check out theedge.co.n.z. But right now we want to talk all the interviews that happen on the red carpet, because if you're watching the live stream, it's super interesting. These celebrities get shuttled pretty much into a line,
Starting point is 00:16:37 and they wait their turn to go stand on the stairs. So there's a lot of waiting involved And when they're waiting That's when they get all these interviews Yeah Emma Chamber Start up the last few years The YouTuber There was this iconic moment last year
Starting point is 00:16:50 Between her and Jack Harlow I'll see you in there Can't wait Love you, bye Love ya Now they went viral It was just like her Awkulgood
Starting point is 00:16:58 Love you, bye Like so awkward That never met in their life And he was like Love you, bye They've both matured a lot Since last year Yeah was there any love views this year
Starting point is 00:17:08 This was their intro when they first, they only talked to you for like 20 seconds. This is the start of it. How are we going to like outdo what we did? We don't have to. It's just, it's us. It's just us. It's a timeless partnership.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Do I like, do I just start this out by being like, who are you wearing? If you want. Okay. And then they got into hosy wearing and then they ended up with. It's great to see you. It was great to see you. Love you. Love you.
Starting point is 00:17:33 She was waiting for him to say it though. He didn't say it this year. He's locked up. You, Rican? Yeah, I reckon he can't have you listened to his new album? Yep. Well, there's one thing that's like, there's one lyric on his new album. If you haven't listened to it, it is phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:17:48 And there's one lyric and it's like, I'm not sure I'd meet my wife in the club, but she's more a CEO. Let's see where we go. I'd love to meet her one day. So he doesn't have the woman he thinks is going to be a wife. Which, that's the reason I focused on that lyric in particular. It was like, oh, well, I could be a CEO. And then he could date me.
Starting point is 00:18:07 Has he replied to your DMs yet? No. No, okay. Not at all. Another iconic moment. Emma Chamberlain, obviously she's out here. She knows how to do it. She knows how to get the grabs.
Starting point is 00:18:16 She knows what people are after. She hunted that with the Jagallo. Sydney Sweeney. Oh, I love her. Who seems so easily offended by things, was not in a great mood. Pulled up there, she had this tiny little handbag. The smallest little handbag I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:18:31 It's fashion, babe. This is what Emma Chamberlain said to her. I love her. You can fit nothing in there? No, I fit quite a few things. Okay, amazing. Oh, okay. Like it's not bigger than the size of your fingers
Starting point is 00:18:43 She was so offended She was like, no It's like she's making a joke Sydney Also, what could What was that? Well it was me just getting angry And stomping the ground I genuinely thought there was someone like
Starting point is 00:18:56 Because we're here on a Saturday morning Just to pull back the curtains There's no one ever in the business And so when I hear scary noises I get quite frightened It's okay, I'm here, look after you Okay, well you know Sydney's sweetie small bag
Starting point is 00:19:07 Maybe has some stuff to protect me As we said the all the highlights at the edge.co.n.z. So if you did a very good breakdown of the outfits on the edge nz Instagram as well. Oh, thank you. If you want to check it out. Bottomless brunch with Sean and So. Can I just take a little victory lap real quick? Yes, please. That's my favorite song on the playlist right now. Is it? Can you tell him? Yeah, it's so good. It's so groovy. Yeah. So I, I was early on that guy. He, uh, I was glad you said, on that guy to finish your sentence. So that song came out like four years ago. Yeah. Wow. Right? And it's recently having a little bit of
Starting point is 00:19:40 moment. Because of the movie Elemental. Because of the movie Elemental. That's exactly it. But I got on to him from a Benny song. He featured on a Benny song when Benny was still like on the way up on this track, Nightgarden. Oh, song. This guy here. No. You just witnessed my brain being blown.
Starting point is 00:20:06 You've never seen that before. You've never seen it before because I'm always one step ahead of you. I'm always one step ahead. You've just done it. How did you? I love the song so much. I think Benny, so talented, never knew who this dude was. Wow. Wow.
Starting point is 00:20:22 That does sound like the kind of like song you'd be into. Yes. It doesn't surprise me. You know me. I love a little bit of like soul rap, a little bit of groove. And that's why Baccar's song is my favorite on the playlist. Yeah, at that time I went and looked him up and his most famous song was Hellen Back. Once again, nowhere near what it is now.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Wow. You hadn't even charted, and then now when I saw it charting, I was like, that's a great record. I'm going to need a moment to figure out my brain capacity because it's just exploded all over the walls. All right. We'll play some songs. We'll get soap for a glass of ice water. We'll call her down. Bottomless brunch with Sean and So.
Starting point is 00:20:56 I'm excited, Sof, this afternoon. I am on a flight off to the beautiful Isle of Fiji. Bulla. Bula vanaka. Very lucky. Now, you've had this box in the studio all morning, and I have displayed great patience, which is quite unlike me, to not open it. Now it says,
Starting point is 00:21:13 Grace Gang Take Fiji. Is this the merch? It's the merch. So to fill you in, I'm going with my girlfriend's family for quite a nice getaway for her mum's 60th. Must be nice.
Starting point is 00:21:25 What I've decided to do is buy us all hats, matching hats, that say Grace Gang, Take Fiji, their surname is the graces. Now, the reason I did this was for my own enjoyment
Starting point is 00:21:35 because I know that they're all going to hate it. And that none of them are going to wear them Yeah. And that I am going to, I've spent too much money on these. I'm going to pull them out at the airport and I'm going to be the only one who wears it. But I'm going to commit and I'm going to wear it for the whole time. I cannot wait. You are going to be one of those families that people take photos of and post on their Instagram stories on their close friends.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Like, oh my God, get a load of these guys. I'm going to be the only one wearing it. Oh, can I have a little look? I want you to unbox them. So I've never unboxed him before. I sliced the, um, the, um, the, cell day. How many did you get? Seven?
Starting point is 00:22:05 How many are in the family? The seven. They were going. So you didn't get me one. Why I didn't get you? I don't think you want a one. But like, what if... You want one and then just like hang out in New Zealand
Starting point is 00:22:14 with a grace game takes Fiji? When you take a photo in Fiji, I'll take a selfie and like superimpose myself on it because how cool would that be? It'd be like Sean and Sov take Fiji. Yeah, you can't have Jeannie's one. No, I can't take... I'll take Jeannie's mum's one.
Starting point is 00:22:26 She doesn't need it for a 6th. I'm really struggling to get into the box here. I'm so... Oh, that's so cool. Albo grace. Oh, yeah. They actually looks sick. So they're like a trucker hat
Starting point is 00:22:38 with the old mesh. back. And then it's like, Grace Gang takes All In Capitals and then the little fidu. This looks so cool. I can't worry because I've got a bun on my head. You look great. I did.
Starting point is 00:22:50 If you listened to the show earlier, Sean's definitely gone from a two out of ten to a three. You need to listen to the podcast. I laughed so hard. There is water on the floor from my mouth, not from anywhere else. I don't pee myself. It was quite the situation.
Starting point is 00:23:04 Yeah, I think so I'm a two out of ten. You can text. What's the text to listen to our podcast? I haven't come back from it emotionally. That's not what you text. It's a very long sentence. Is it not? Is it breakfast?
Starting point is 00:23:14 No, that's not. Brunch. Brunch to 3343. Text brunch to 3343. Bottomless brunch with Sean and Soe. Coming up on the show, Sophie, we have a big international celebrity. Well, okay, let's be honest. We're really hoping he shows up because it is early on a Saturday morning.
Starting point is 00:23:32 He is a major international artist that has flown to New Zealand in the last like 48 hours. Yeah. So we're really hoping that he still shows up for our show. Wilkinson is who we're talking about. It is the official... Sorry. Official what? Official, official, no.
Starting point is 00:23:49 Yeah, the official. Official national anthem of summer. Yeah. Wow. No, okay, try and say official... Try and say official national anthem of summer. No, no, no, try to say it. Official anthem.
Starting point is 00:24:04 It's so hard. It's so hard. It's official national anthem of summer. I think it's just the... Official and national are two very hard words to put together. Anyway, we are very reliant on Wilkinson's Uber showing up in the next kind of five minutes. He messaged me and he said he is coming in this morning stealth. Should we test him on saying official national?
Starting point is 00:24:21 Absolutely, that's all we're going to do. And we're going to give him a little citizen test. Oh, yes. To see if he really is an honorary Kiwi, Wilkinson joins the show live after this. Bottomless brunch with Sean and Sofe. Join this morning on the show by the one and only Wilkinson. Welcome. He's pulled up in an Uber.
Starting point is 00:24:39 You. We reckon like a brewery in the same clothes he was wearing last night. Still dusty from your Friday night. Hey, I really appreciate you coming in on a saddy morning to join Sean and myself. And we thought, you know, we'd have a bit of fun. You're obviously here on your tour, doing all the music stuff. But, you know.
Starting point is 00:24:54 It's nice to have a bit of fun, you know, this boring job that I do. Yeah, it must be real hard times. Now, you are in New Zealand a lot. Well, in 10 years, probably about 15, 16, 17, 17 times. Well, you know what the rule is if you spend officially more than a little, 11 years in New Zealand, which you all come more than 11 times to New Zealand. Yeah. You have to apply to be known as a New Zealander.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Oh, really? And look, we don't want to report you. No. But we will. Okay. Yeah, we're actually members of the government protocol to make sure that artists don't take them, make and come here too often. It's a secret program.
Starting point is 00:25:27 We have actually been employed by the government to test how well you know New Zealand after traveling more than 11 times here. All right, all right. So we've got a little game. I'm ready for this. I'm not ready for this. a Kiwi or not. And these are official government guideline
Starting point is 00:25:42 questions, by the way. We didn't come up with them. Not at all. We're just doing, you know, running up the flagpole. Is this a guessing game about like, New Zealand phrases or actual... Could be? You don't know? That would have been good. Write it down quickly. You can make, you can change it up. All right, Shawnees, do you want to start?
Starting point is 00:25:58 Question number one of the Kiwi test with Wilkinson. Question number one, Wilkinson. Name me one player of the All-Backs. Off the top of my head. Don't check your phone. He goes to bring to his phone. No, no, no, no. Past or present.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Anybody. Yeah. Just one. Don't know me? Okay, yep, we'll take it. We'll take it, man. I mean, he's iconic. I mean, you know, like, yeah, I actually chat to some of them sometimes.
Starting point is 00:26:20 Oh, but you don't know their name. Yeah, yeah. Well, you know, there's such a mixture of name, so. And I wouldn't want to pick one out and offend the other, so, you know? That's very key. You know, like, good friends. Yeah. I want to upset people.
Starting point is 00:26:32 Fair enough. Question number two. Which one belongs to New Zealand? Marmite or Veggie. night um veggie mite no veggie it's Aussie isn't that
Starting point is 00:26:43 that's why you know what I have to tell you someone another presenter from another show put their finger in my mouth with Marmite on it and I said and it wasn't incredibly unprofessional we don't do stuff like that
Starting point is 00:26:56 I'm digging myself I'm digging myself a whole but it was its own brand right so is Marmite officially a Kiwi yeah it is all right we'll give that one to you will we came around on
Starting point is 00:27:08 No, you can't. Come on. Okay. Name a New Zealand film director. Oh, man. Peter Jackson. Yes, he's done it. Oh, PJ.
Starting point is 00:27:19 I'm so excited for you. I'm like, yeah. Yeah, I've got like a message from God in my ears. So it's all that helping me along. Does that happen? Do you ever get that? Do you ever get voices in your head that kind of tell you things in that room? Oh, that was Cal.
Starting point is 00:27:38 My God. You bastard. Producing hell. I thought I was having a sort of moment that. I was like, wow. Okay, next question. Which island is Invercargo located in? The North Island or the South Island? If you said Wahiki, I could have said that.
Starting point is 00:27:55 It's the South Island. South Island. So many people are helping them out here, guys. There's no one in it apart from us. All right. This is an easy one for you, Wilkinson. Name one Lord's song. I know this song.
Starting point is 00:28:08 My mind is blank, you know, like you said, I'm a smell of beer and, you know, it's very early in the morning. Forgive it. But hang on. Afterglow came out at the same time of this song, I remember. Royals, ring a bell. Yeah, that's it. It was Royals. All right.
Starting point is 00:28:28 Well, I'm not going to give that. So do I get my... Your Kiwi citizen shit? Yeah, what was the score? What's the score, sort of? I'll ask you one more. Yeah. A.J. Hackett is a famous Kiwi known for what.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Act, what did he do? A.J. Hackett. Yeah. He did something and it became famous. Is it like swinging something? Kind of. I mean, kind of. Keep going with that. Lock in. Hang on a sake, let's play a bit of charades.
Starting point is 00:28:55 Okay, okay. I'm going to attach myself to something. Yeah. Skydiving? Oh, hang on. The Hackett Bungie. Yeah, that's it. Jeez.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Look, Matt, you've got a lot. of practice to do but we will officially allow you in the country this time and just you know work on the questions for next time yeah i have no prep though what is this bell do as well sorry we're not allowed you didn't did you just have the bell you had the bell i was wonderful no that's the uh expedite you from the country bell sorry guys come get him her it's so Wilkinson hanging out in studio this morning on the edge bottomless brunch Sean and Soe thanks for hanging out mate you're a legend bottomless brunch with Sean and Sof just talking about how that song's taken the world by storm so crazy chart reaction to it yeah it um has pretty much just gone straight up to number one
Starting point is 00:29:44 across the streaming services and shazam as well which we was talking is an interesting one because shazam primarily means people don't know what it is it doesn't necessarily mean that they like it it just means they're curious about it but i think the response is that people are vibing that sound and it sounds like it could be another artist is it labyrinth is it hosier no it's this new guy David Kushner. But if you think he sounds like Hosier, the song is the greatest. He wrote this song.
Starting point is 00:30:15 What? With Hosia. Yeah, he wrote the whole album. Wow, this guy Kushner. Yeah, yeah. David Kushner wrote this whole album, which had that song, this one from Eden. An iconic Grammy Award nominated Hosia album was written by David Kushner and you can kind of hear that in his music. That is impressive. This kid's only like, what, 22?
Starting point is 00:30:33 It's wild. And they get most of the money. The writers? Yeah, so he'd be making you Money on Hosey is still. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Are you telling me, if I wrote a really good pop song, I would make really big buck. Yeah, I did. Like, this is off the top of my head, so it's not going to be entirely accurate. But the breakdown is essentially, like, 40% for the writer, 30% for the artist, 20% for the producer and the rest for the label.
Starting point is 00:30:57 So if Doola Lepa has a song, right, that's written by someone else, the other person actually gets more money on it. That's why Ed Shearin's making so much off writings for everyone else. I know what I'm going to do now with my life You know how every week I come in here with a different job idea Because we need the backup I'm going to be a songwriter I reckon I could write songs I've gone through enough weird heartache
Starting point is 00:31:18 And relationship situationships That I could write a really good song about that Homework task Okay yes I want you to come to the edge bottom of sprunch Next Saturday With a chorus and a verse Just one chorus, one verse of Sof's pop song
Starting point is 00:31:33 Absolutely And obviously you can give us a little performance, but once again we know the singing's not that's not the part we're looking for. It's the songwriting. I know you can sing. What are you saying about my sing? But you're going to give it to Ariana, right? So it's all about the songwriting. But then I'm worried, what if I do it on the show and I'm like, hey, here's the lyrics.
Starting point is 00:31:48 And then someone like Mitch James is listening and he's like, I'm going to write that as my new album song. Like, I wouldn't be worried about that. Bottomless brunch with Sean and Sof. It is about damn time. We up and scoot out of here. But as we usually do, going into the rest of your weekend, Sof, our resident philosopher will leave us with some
Starting point is 00:32:06 well-thought-out words of wisdom that are definitely not off the top of her head on the spot. No, definitely emphasis on the well-thought-out. You know, just a moment to reflect and really get in tune with your feelings and inspire you. Essentially, that's what I want to do is I want to inspire people
Starting point is 00:32:21 to have a really positive uplifting weekend. Now, what the philosophy is today is to do with hats because... There's a box of hats. I've bought some branded hats for my girlfriend's... family, we're going to Fiji this afternoon. Do you know what's interesting though?
Starting point is 00:32:40 Well, actually, this can apply to multiple items of clothing. If you find a hat and a store and it doesn't fit your head, what do you do? Try a different hat on. Try a different hat. Interesting you say that. So the hat doesn't fit your head. You don't change your head shape to fit the hat, right? So in life, if you are finding...
Starting point is 00:32:59 It would have, my God. I've seen some lovely hats. I've gone, man, if only I had a smaller dog. Sorry, didn't realize you were the philosopher. Sorry. if in life you're finding you're in a situation that just doesn't it doesn't fit
Starting point is 00:33:10 you know maybe it's a love situation maybe it's a friendship maybe it's a job if you're not fitting what instead of changing yourself to the mould you find a different hat find a different lover find a different friend have a beautiful stop fading me out
Starting point is 00:33:25 the end Sean and Sof have a great weekend bottomless brunch with Sean and Sof
