This is a podcast from Rover.
Hey, welcome to the podcast. Thanks for clicking on this link.
Big show today.
Someone tried to get in a fight with me.
It's therefore a dressing gown to a place that's inappropriate and is addicted to Love Island.
Yes, a sports wrap up.
I enjoyed that one.
And my 14 months old had got invited to his first birthday party.
That is so sweet.
So sweet.
You want to come.
I don't think it's a plus one situation.
I don't know.
There'd be good treats, fairy bread and things like that, twisties maybe.
Rations. Is it like a BYU? Kind of bring your own box kind of thing?
No, no, no. You know, you just like rock up with a present, a card and you just eat little sweet treats.
That does sound good. Also, if you're a fan of Love Island, make sure you stick around to the end of this podcast.
Because Steph and I have been low-key wanting to do a Love Island podcast because we're quite obsessed with the season.
So we just kind of, we've just marked our territory all over the end of this podcast.
So you can say, if you're a fan of it, then you listen to that. If not, then just skip it.
No stress.
Oh, we offload. It's so good this season.
Your Avos head harder.
with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
Welcome to the show.
What a big show today.
Steph is back from holiday.
Hello.
I've noticed that someone's texting.
How you can illegally watch Love Island today?
I head on the text line.
Amanda, naughty.
Very naughty, Amanda, but God, it's good, isn't it?
Also, Steph already knows.
Yeah, thanks, Amanda.
She's got it block marks.
Guys, how satisfying is it when you're in the shower
and you block one nostril
and then you just like let rip out of the other one?
just a massive, and just get all the snort out.
That's what I've been doing over the last five days of my holiday, in quotation marks.
Yeah, you got really sick.
Truly, that was my highlight, having a shower and desnotting.
There's nothing better than when you're really sick and all blocked up,
when you have a super hot shower, and you're just like,
exactly.
It's like the greatest thing.
It's better than Vicks, which is up there as well.
Vicks, you get a bit of Vicks on the chest?
A little Vicks on the chest.
Don't, oh, don't start.
Well, it's good to have you back.
Don't get that mixed up with other things, by the way.
That could be painful.
Really sore.
Would a lot recommend.
At the time, I went to a restaurant and then went to the bathroom and peed after grabbing
chili flakes with my hands.
Yeah.
Similar, similar sensation.
Similar burning kind of sensation, I'm assuming.
Anyway, let's try that later on the show.
Figure out which one's worse, chili or vix.
Interesting.
I'm going to say Vicks.
Producer Sam, Nurse Sam's on board today.
No sniffles from you yet.
No sniffles here, team.
Not this one, too.
Okay, that's good.
God, it's hard out there, guys.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Easy Money is the game we play at this time every day.
Usually you have $1,000 up for grabs today.
$10,000.
The Edge 10K.
Easy Money.
It's all thanks to BNZ.
We'll give you a letter between E and Z,
and you have to answer 10 questions
with the letter we give you correctly in 30 seconds.
0,800 the Edge, if you want to play.
BNZ believes there's an art to starting something new,
and like any art form,
need the right tools to make it work.
And 100 bucks just for playing.
Yeah.
There you go.
Dylan, 100 bucks for you.
Hey, thank you.
That's great.
Let's try in, oh God, what's the, I was going to say, like, times 10 it.
Is that right?
To get to 10,000, no.
How do you go?
100.
Times.
Find the X, find the X value in 10.
Times 10?
No, that'll be 1,000.
So it's 10.
So he got $100.
Times 100 is 10,000?
Someone, producer, new Sam.
You're good at math.
That's a lot of money.
That's true.
Actually really not good at maths.
All I'm saying is it shouldn't take three of us this long to do this simple equation
and dangobber in this industry.
Okay, well, think I'll be better at letters and numbers, Dylan,
because today for easy money, your letter will be able to be H.
H for...
Harrison.
Yeah, Harrison.
Ace for Harrison.
Yeah, exactly.
H for...
Hribos.
Hockey.
Hockey, yeah, Dylan.
Yeah, Dylan. Dylan's on it.
You couldn't think you're playing, Dylan.
All right.
30 seconds.
Dylan, no repeated answers.
All answers must begin with the letter H.
H.
And your time will begin when I say the first category.
Okay. Are you ready?
Yep, I'm very nervous, but I'm ready.
We'll just wait until you're not nervous anymore.
Just breathe that up.
Dylan, I don't want to, just so you know,
this is your chance to win $10,000
and hundreds of thousands of people are listening
who would love to be in your position, man, so no pressure.
Yeah.
Dylan from Christchurch, please name for us.
A country.
Um, hungry.
Something you buy at a supermarket.
A ham.
A movie.
Uh, Hansen Gretel.
Something you read.
A handbook.
Shoe brand.
Um, uh, a hacker.
A famous singer.
Um.
Um, Harry Stiles.
Something you find in the kitchen?
Um, uh, handspin roller.
A New Zealand town or city?
Hamilton.
Time!
Wow, what I will say, Dylan, I'll give you eight out of ten there, man.
Methodical, I like that you didn't skip.
Usually when people pass, you're never going to get back to it anyway.
Um, yeah, really good.
Just a little slow on it, but you got eight.
If you had another five seconds, you probably ought to go that.
Well played, bro.
Well played.
Your Arvoh's head harder with Sean.
Steph and Harrison
Good to have you back
Steph, big holiday
Oh massive holiday
Yeah no tropical islands and cocktails
and things like that are just like so
overly done that I thought I would
just get a cold and be bedridden
for the entire time I had on leave
Just to mix it up
You know no one else is doing it
Yeah
Just keeping it real unique
But while I was away
And this is pre like real real sick
I dropped my 14-month-old off at Kindi,
and I am handed an envelope by one of the teachers.
And I kind of looked down, and it's like a bright red envelope,
and I'm like, oh, I wonder what this could be.
And then the teacher who handed it to me was like, whispered to me,
and was like, you need to RSVP by today.
And I was like, golly, is it some kind of, like, what is this happening here?
I have no idea.
Secret society that you've been allowed into.
Oh my goodness.
And so I open it as I'm walking back to the car.
And it's a birthday invitation.
Now, I'm new to this world.
I'm a new mum-ish, 14 months old,
but he's never been invited to any birthday party before,
let alone like an actual hand-delivered envelope
and an actual invite.
That is so cute.
He's a bit young, 14 months.
And so the theme is Mickey Mouse.
That's cute.
And I don't know any of the other moms at Kindi.
And so I'm going to go and I'm going to meet people and chat and dress my kid up real cute in a Mickey outfit.
And I am so excited.
Sorry, once again, I don't have a kid.
So a lot of this is, it's new for you.
It's very, very new for me.
You're going to have to go to this party, right?
You can't let your 14 months.
I'll go out.
Or do you give him a curfew?
No, you don't just drop them off and leave.
Come home, don't be too pissed.
Is that what you say?
No, no, no, no.
So you go with him?
I'll be there the whole time and I'll be meeting people.
He runs around.
He'll probably be running around and getting...
And I'm just, like, thrilled that this is like a phase of life that's starting to happen.
Kids' birthday parties.
But I'm looking at producer nurse Sam over there, and she's kind of shaking her head being like,
girl, what are you talking about?
What do you make?
What are you meant?
It's like a right of passage right for your kid to get an invitation and go to a party.
And it's so excited.
Just to be like, he's not the awkward one.
He does have friends.
Mickey Mouse me?
I'm going to have to find a costume.
It is.
No, it is. It's super exciting.
So quickly, should Steph be dressing up in Mackey Mouse theme,
or should she just let the kid do it?
Oh, that depends what kind of mum you are.
There's like two kinds of moms here.
I am so involved.
You know I'm going to be dressing up.
You'll be sitting with all the other moms all dressed up.
No, it's great.
It is definitely exciting.
It's like a right of passage for every mum with a new kid, you know, the first party.
But I can tell you now, it is a slippery slope,
and one day you're going to get that envelope,
and you are not going to be excited about it.
Oh, you think the novelty will.
we're off. Oh yes. You're going to get like an envelope every week for like four months straight
and you have to go to these kids parties every weekend. You've got to carve it out of your
personal weekend time, turn up to this random person's house, converse with all these other
parents, try and keep your little wild child, you know, acting normal.
Did you say it's going to happen probably like every week I'm going to receive an envelope?
Yeah. We, yes.
Continue to hear that short? Every week. This is so excited.
No, you say that now, Steph. I know how much you hate small talk. You're like me.
You're going to end up standing around with these parents.
It would be great if they're like repeat parents,
but if every time you're like,
you're just sitting there for two hours,
watching your kid have a great time,
you're hearing this guy who's recently divorced
talk about his avocado orchard or something.
I don't think you're going to be interested in it.
No, maybe not, but let me have this moment.
I'm very excited.
Now, shall I go with Mickey, Goofy, Minnie?
What's your vibe on that one?
Pluto.
Oh, keep it unique again.
Sean, I love it.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harry.
But one thing I did a lot over the weekend, I did listen to Bieber's album, but also I watched a lot of sports.
I'm getting into sports.
I watched a lot of sports.
There was heaps of sport on.
No, you didn't.
I'm the sports guy on the show as of now.
Okay.
Well, I'll be the sports girl.
Oh, that's good.
There's a spot open for that.
You know, you've known me for many years, Steph.
You know, I'm not really into that.
I'm not much of a sports guy, especially not rugby.
No.
I'm trying harder.
I'm trying hard.
And I'm really enjoying it.
I get my people watch rugby.
Do you need any of the rules explained?
Because I will be able to do that fair.
Do you know what a scrum is?
Yep.
I know what a scrum is.
Okay.
Now, I thought I'd do a quick recap on some of the results from the weekend
because a lot of water cooler chat today is looking at the most Googled things in New Zealand.
A lot of the sports chat is what's Google.
It's a quick rundown.
Look, you seem to be confident.
You want to have a bit of sports chat.
Feel free to jump in there.
Piece of cake.
If you want. First thing, big game, All Blacks played.
Love the All Blacks.
They played in Wellington on Saturday night against Steph.
France.
Yeah.
Good.
Allé la Doula.
They did.
They won against France, which is big.
And then the, I can't forget, the Black Ferns.
Yeah.
Because that'd be sexist.
Yep.
They won a big game against France.
No.
Alley La Blatt.
No.
Do you want one more time?
Oh gosh.
Switzerland?
Australia.
Yeah.
Against Australia.
Can I say women's rugby is very good.
George and Miller got an incredible try.
George Miller.
The men won.
The woman.
one and on Sunday
the Warriors won
Up the Wars
Did you watch that go?
Was that sound bite of you
during the match?
Yeah.
Up the Wars.
Oh, Sean, he sounds so cute.
Yeah, I was sitting on my balls.
They won a big game against
Steph, who?
Oh, are you asking who the Warriors played?
Yeah.
France.
Out the wars.
No, they played the West Tigers
which means they're fourth in the league this year
which is pretty impressive,
because that's out of how many teams, Steph?
Um,
five.
That wouldn't be,
no, that wouldn't be impressive.
10, 11?
Up there was.
17.
17.
4th is pretty good.
We've never won.
The Warriors.
Pretty good.
And then Wimbledon's going on as well at the moment.
Tennis.
So we won all our rugby games over the weekend.
Wimbledon is happening.
A lot of people watching tennis.
And I caught this moment on social media.
I don't know who's winning tennis.
I don't care, to be honest.
What I live for is stuff like this.
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
avoid opening bottles of champagne when the players are about to serve.
Come on.
I love that. It's warm. It's the most Wimbledon warning you've ever heard.
That was good. I was also why Anna Wintel, you know, the Vogue lady,
refused to wear the free hats that they give your Wimbledon for some protection
because she's like the Vogue lady. And so she just like covered her face with it
instead of wearing it like a hat on her head.
It's so pretentious, isn't it? Like imagine, I'll play it again one more time.
So now that you know that champagne popping, this is silence.
one's about to serve.
Just...
Yeah, that'd be enough to put me off by a hundred kilometre an hour serve.
You ever see me to it?
No.
Sight to behold.
I've never said...
Although I do empathise with the person who popped the bottle
because if I was at Wimbledon, I'm not watching the match.
No.
You're giving me free champagne and hors d'oeuvres.
Sorry.
Otherwise you're getting a sore neck going backwards and forwards like that.
How about these people smacking a ball around and getting in the way of me having some good old
Vesonavo sessions?
That's a good point.
What are we doing here?
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
I am on a journey New Zealand, a journey to provide you with a fact that is so shareable, so original and performed to such an excellent degree that it is deemed.
Sean's five-star fact.
He's never been able to do it before.
And we're not only looking for...
No, I want to say that's not true because once I got Tammy the Briscoe's lady in and she got a five-star fact.
But I orchestrated it.
You gave her the fact, yeah, but you didn't perform it.
Tammy, the Briscoe's lady did.
So she deserved her five-star fact.
Sean, don't take it away from the briscoes lady.
I'd say I produced it.
Okay, well, great producing, Sean, but that's not the same.
Okay?
Can we settle that?
Not fair.
And I did get a five-star fact another day, but then it was deemed to be a non-facts.
Yeah, you have to fact-check your fact, Sean, because we won't accept a fact that actually isn't true.
Okay, so we're looking for, you're right, shareability, originality performance.
We're also looking for a vast number of other things.
we want a fact with no war chat, no numbers, none of that, no scientific words.
We really need something that we'll remember.
Something we're passionate about, connected to, something we feel related to.
And some judge chemistry is in the judging criteria too.
And that's today between me and producer nurse Sam.
How are you feeling, Sam?
How's your energy with Steph being this afternoon?
You guys feeling good?
Yeah, we're feeling good, I think.
We're really good, actually.
Yep.
Okay, that's good.
I want to say quickly, just a quick pre-fact.
I did this last week.
and I've just, it's been sitting with me all week.
I just feel like it should have been five stars.
Because you didn't, you went here, you were on holidays,
so I just want to quickly do a pre-fact to warm you up.
Okay.
Hippos can't swim.
Do you know that?
Hippos, no hippos can swim.
How do they get through the rivers?
They just wade through the rivers, through shallow rivers.
They actually can't swim.
That's not true.
It is true.
I've seen the hippo swimming at the zoo.
Nah, you haven't.
No, I have.
You've seen it walking through the water.
Nah.
Honestly, Google it.
I thought that was an amazing fact.
Wow, that is an amazing fact.
I told me so many people that over the weekend.
It was very shareable.
Anyway, Sam and Harrison didn't think so.
It says, okay, Google says they're not good swimmers.
No, you can't swim. They're too heavy to swim.
What? They bounce along the bottom of rivers.
So they bounce. They don't swim, they bounce.
Yeah.
That's bizarre.
Okay, so is that your fact?
No, no, sorry, that was a fact from last week.
I just wanted to know what you think.
Do you think it was five stars now?
Yeah, but now I'm just so distracted by this fact.
It's going to be really, really hard to concentrate with the actual one.
Sorry, new fact.
Today's fact is about flying.
I can't fly.
That was funny.
That was funny.
No, that is not it.
The shortest commercial flight in the world is in Scotland between two islands.
It takes 53 seconds.
Wow.
You lift up, and you go out and you'll be down.
It's actually quite funny.
It's a commercial flight that you can take.
Imagine that, eh?
Luggage check and everything, go through the whole security.
scanning. You wouldn't have time to take that plane down
if you were, like a terrorist.
Why can't people...
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying if you were.
Okay, that's a crazy
joke. Sorry. It wasn't a joke.
Just like science. You wouldn't.
Jesus. All right. Why can't you
have a boat? Why can't you boat
across the Scottish Isle or whatever it is?
I think you probably can. It's just the shortest commercial
fight you can take in the world. Shortish.
Okay. Shortest.
Oh God. All right. Producer Nurse Sam. Thoughts.
It's definitely
quirky and original.
I don't know if it's a five-staff fact
though, Sean. But I love your little mix-up of
words there. Were you doing the accent?
I think it was just a stuff.
The shortest flight. No, no, I can't do it. No, I wasn't doing an accent, Sam.
Oh, okay. Oh, no accent. Well, then that brings it down lower.
Should have claimed it, Sean.
So I know, Sam, I was doing an accent.
Sean, I actually quite like the fact. It doesn't feel that relatable
because it's Scotland and it's not kind of anywhere near New Zealand.
and also I really didn't like the joke that you made after the fact.
Yeah, so that also brings it down.
So I'm going to go like two.
Two out of five, yeah.
No.
It would have been a three had you not done the terrorism long.
Not a terrorism joke.
Okay.
Yeah, I get that, Sam.
Mine's a three, but only because you did the accent,
I'm going to pretend you actually did it on purpose.
So, yeah, three for me.
I think you guys are being harsh on that.
I think you'd share that in an airport.
Oh, we're going to get an 11-hour flight.
You know, the shortest one's only 53.
No, you're right.
Yeah.
That is a two.
It is a two.
Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Now on Saturday, Steph, I was out on the old Harley.
It's been a cool.
It's been a legend.
Oh, you're a kind of horsepower, C, C, SUV,
COVID-19.
Are you rocking over there, right?
Oh, you know it.
You know what I'm rocking.
So I'm on the bike.
I'm pulling into a gas station.
Oh, yeah, I've been one at home.
Yeah.
Yeah, are there any bays at the bedroom of the day?
Oh, a couple of bays.
I'm going, I'm pulling in there, right?
And there's a car that's starting to reverse.
So I'm coming into the gas station, a car's reversing out of one of the parks.
He pulls out quite quickly without looking, and I'm kind of coming behind him.
You know what, sorry?
I'm kind of coming behind him.
You're coming in behind him?
I'm coming behind him, and he pulls out really quickly, and I go, oh, jebazes, that's quick.
So I slam my brakes on.
He kind of stops and looks at me.
me, you know, the standoff that kind of happens, and I go, oh, let him go, be a nice guy.
He doesn't go, so I'm like, oh, I'll go then, back into the pump.
And I get off, I was like, well, that was that exchange.
Okay.
Then I hear this, I'm wearing a helmet, by the way, so he's this, woo-re-re-we, I'm like,
what is happening?
I turn around, this guy's backed out right next to me, and he is losing it.
I hate that.
Losing his head at me.
He's one that almost hit you, though.
Yeah, I honestly don't think either of us were really in the wrong.
He just wasn't looking when he was pulling out.
I wasn't really expecting him to pull out.
Nothing happened.
We were both,
I was going slow enough that I could stop.
Maybe you gave him a threat.
Maybe he was like,
oh God, there's a bike right there.
And he got all freshened.
And he's air you and he's this and he's getting out of the car.
And I'm like, kicking my helmet open.
Brother, what happened?
Why are you so angry?
Did you say, brother?
I don't think he could hear what I was saying.
I couldn't hear what he was saying.
And I was just trying to understand.
I was like, mate, what's going on?
Like, is everything all right?
Can I ask what like the age kind of demographic is?
I think he would have been late 30s, early 40s.
Oh, okay, because in my head I'm visualising like between 50 and 60.
But no, he's kind of like bit older than you.
Bit older than me.
Yeah, but he was just, he was ready to go.
And I was just kind of looking confused in him.
And then he got in his car and drove off.
And I was like, what?
What was that?
Why is this guy trying to fight me?
I didn't do anything.
And luckily, I'm not a lover and not a fighter, Steph.
You know that.
A piece of love, brother.
I love it.
Yeah, brother.
Oh, my God.
Man, when you're trying to be an adult
We're just trying to get into fights.
What a loser.
Someone texted in just now, Sean, to 3343.
Yeah.
About a different reason why they wanted to fight you.
Have you seen that text?
Yeah, that seems like that necessary.
Can we get them on?
I can't believe you do that outside of a supermarket.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
I was just telling a story, Steph, someone who I thought was my friend
about over the weekend, I was pulling into a gas station.
And I was Oshall Sean Connery at the same time.
I was pulling in on my motorcycle.
Um, um.
And some guys pulling out right in front of me, I stopped.
No stress, bro.
You were right.
Let him go.
He didn't want to go.
I went, didn't think anything of the exchange.
No one was really in the wrong.
I park up, and he is letting me have it.
Like, gets out of his car.
He wants to fight me.
This guy wants to go.
And I haven't had many people in my life want to fight me, Steph.
I was a bit taken back.
I was like,
man,
what is,
well,
is everything all right
at home,
brother?
What's going?
Why are you so angry?
And Sean,
that actually shocks me
that this was the first time
that you felt the vibe
that someone wanted to hit you.
Honestly,
because we have so many people
on 0800 the edge here.
I don't like it when you do this gag.
It's not a fun gag.
Yeah.
So sorry,
you're saying that all these people,
this full phone lines
and all these texts have come through
saying these are reasons
that they'd like to punch me.
I just happen to put it
out there, get in touch. Cool, 0-800-the-edge
if you've ever wanted to fight you, Sean.
And lo and behold, Zara's here
on 0-800-the-edge. Zara,
Kiyoda, why do you want to fight, Sean?
No, Zara. We're friends.
Why, Zara? What do you do?
Oh, hi, Sean.
Hi, Zara.
I was collecting charity
outside of the supermarket once, and
Sean walked over and he spat in my bucket.
You,
peasing.
In my defence, Sarah.
I was in my chewing tobacco stage at that point, and I did have to get rid of it,
and I thought you might have been offering it to me as a friend.
You held it up to me like you were, like, shaking it, and I was like, thanks.
She was collecting money for charity, Sean.
At the time, I didn't realize that, Zara, and that's on me.
Sorry.
Good one, Sean.
Honestly, Zara, thank you for being so honest.
And what an angel collecting for charity.
Braden on 0800 the edge.
Why do you want to fight, Sean?
Now, get this.
I'm pulling up to a pedestrian crossing, and I see Sean pulled up.
And I'm like, you know, I'll stop, let him cross, give him a wave.
He just locks in, doesn't acknowledge it, and just strolls across the cross scene.
And I'm like, mate, not even a fan-Q wave.
I'm still few, me, to be honest.
Oh, Sean, are you one of those people that don't wave at pedestrian crossings?
You're revolting, man.
Sorry, Braden.
To be honest, I remember that happening.
And I was so steamed.
I was just focusing on being able to walk to the other side of the crossing and keep myself upright.
So that's on me.
Pradden, that's actually maybe worse than spitting in into Zara's buck.
I'm not going to lie. That's actually appalling
behavior. Hey, Braden, I'm waving at you now, mate. Thanks.
Just doing to give you a little wait. Thanks, mate.
Cheers. Too little too late. So we're taking calls
right now on why you want to hit Sean.
Grace? See, I told you there's so many calls.
Okay, so you think this guy was justified,
alright. Yeah, Grace from Auckland. Why have you
wanted to fight Sean before?
Well, I saw Sean teasing
a guide dog with food,
like just like waving it in his
face. Yeah, so some
low vision, blind, maybe
person walking along and he's
just teasing the guide dog with the food.
Well, you know my thoughts on guide dogs.
It's like, you think you're better than all the other dogs
because you've got a job?
Like, chill out, man.
Sean, thank you.
You think you better than everyone?
I don't know if they're dogs at the airport as well.
Sean.
I bring little treats.
I throw them in other people's bags.
Honestly.
And also shout out to you, Kayla, who takes in to 3343.
Sean made a comment once about women having normal sized foreheads and aerolas.
So, Sean, I just want you to know there's no such thing as normal, okay?
Everyone's shapes and sizes are different.
And colours.
About poor men having normal forehand and aerolas.
My aerolas went very dark during frequency.
I'll have, you know.
Your avos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
I unfortunately got sick during my annual leave, so bedbound.
Not much to do.
And you know what?
I told myself that I wasn't going to get into another season of Love Island.
You care.
But everyone was raving about this season and how it's the best Love Island season yet.
And so about two weeks ago, I jumped on.
And I jumped on.
You've finally been watching it for two weeks.
You've watched 30 episodes.
Big time.
Big time on board the Love Island train, Toot Toot, or Chugger, or whatever a train makes the sound.
Chugger, chugger, I believe.
Tugger?
No.
I think both of them, maybe.
I am so into Love Island that it's all I can think about.
It's all my TikTok algorithm.
I get so excited when there's a new episode out.
when there's not a new episode out
or if I've seen the episode
and I'm waiting for the new one to come out
because it is daily
it's like the beautiful thing about Love Island
as I'll just go on YouTube
and just look at house tours of the villa
Yeah
You've come
I blame you actually
You were one of the ones that were like
Oh my God the season's so good
You've got to watch it
And I'm like no I can't do that to myself
There's like 700 episodes per season
I've got a life show
And you know what
It's thanks to you
I do blame myself. I blame myself for this happening with you in The Traders. And now I blame myself
with this happening with you in Love Island. But there's watching it and enjoying it. And then
there's what your unhealthy obsession, which is 30 episodes in two weeks. You're watching them
a day ahead. You're reading all the vlogs. You're like on these different sites looking at
tours. It's all you want to talk about. And as I do feel a sense of responsibility,
I feel like it's my responsibility to help fix this. Luckily, you know that I am
I daylight as a radio host.
I moonlight as a DJ and I gaslight as a hypnotherapist.
Now, I came to you when I was really in my trader's addiction.
And it actually worked.
I haven't watched an episode since.
Yeah.
So what you're about to hear, I can vouch for.
It actually weirdly does something to the brain.
Yes.
My way of doing it is I'll get you to repeat after me, snap my fingers a bit.
I will break your addiction
just a clause of the way I operate
you will end up with another addiction
because it's kind of like one in one out kind of thing
but it'll hopefully be something easier to manage
like smoking or something but
we will get you off Love Island
every time you think about Love Island's death
you'll just crave a cigarette
and you go outside, I never do it.
Repeat after me
I don't need to obsess over Love Island
I don't need to obsess over Love Island.
Watching this show is making me dumber.
Watching this show is making me dumb up.
It's just 10 personal trainers on holiday.
It's just 10 personal trainers on holiday.
Or just naturally gifted genetics.
It's like watching the mating rituals of flamingos.
It's like watching the mating rituals of flamingos.
But with more fake tan and fewer brain cells.
But with more fake tan and fewer brain cells.
None of these people are really in love.
None of these people are really in love.
I should watch more educated reality shows.
Like what?
Like the Great British Bakeoff and Is It Cake?
I love it, it's a cake.
Please repeat.
Please repeat.
I should watch more educational reality TV shows like the Great British Bakeoff and or Is It Cake.
Sorry, if they, just quickly, I know they're like combining a lot of reality shows now.
Like that's the next thing.
Imagine like a Love Island situation where it's something in the villa's made of cake every day.
And if you find it, you get like a new, that would be good.
So good.
Sorry, sorry.
Sorry, back into it.
Belfth.
Grafting, cracking on, muggy.
Graftin, cracking on, muggy.
It's like Shakespeare got kicked in the head by a donkey.
It's like Shakespeare got kicked in the head by a donkey.
It's nonsense.
It's nonsense.
You are now no longer addicted to Love Island.
Congratulations, Steph.
Congratulations.
Most soft snaps.
Thank you.
You don't have to make me fond all the crystal balls this way.
Oh, sorry, sorry.
I usually get you to hold my crystal balls.
I'll do that with our listeners.
I'm so sorry, I forgot about that.
I'm 800 The Edge.
God, I'm so sorry.
Steph, can you just hold my crystal balls quickly?
No, it's over now.
Damn it.
Your Arvose Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
So Sean has many talents and one of them is he can somehow,
with his words and his crystal balls and crystal shaft,
get you to kind of unprogram yourself and to get over redictions.
Low-level addictions.
Like mine is Love Island.
In the past, he's helped me get over the traders before,
big on reality TV over here.
And we're inviting you to call through an 0-800-the-edge
and tell Sean what you're addicted to,
hold his crystal balls,
and hopefully he can help you as well.
That's as I've said,
just a side effect of the way that I tend to do things.
You will be free of this addiction,
but it will be replaced with another addiction,
but just something like gambling or something.
Yeah.
Free service as well.
Free service, but you will no longer be addicted to whatever it was in your life that was controlling you.
Kayla, what are you low-level addicted to?
Cheese and sour cream on everything I eat.
Kayla, I see this a lot.
You'd be surprised.
Don't worry.
It's worked for many of my clients.
One of them has recently lost everything on the Greyhounds because he picked up that as an addiction afterwards.
But don't worry, he has not touched sour cream, so you're in there with it.
Okay.
All right, Kayla.
Are you just going to sign this waiver for me if that's okay?
Okay.
All right.
And could you hold my crystal balls, please?
Sure.
Just create all the crystal balls, thank you.
And with your other hand, could you hold the crystal shaft?
The crystal shaft?
Sure.
Thank you, Kayla.
No.
Steph?
Sorry.
It just reminds me of something else.
Sorry.
Now, this is a very serious exercise.
Yeah.
Now, Kayla, can you repeat after me?
Not everything is a baked potato.
Not everything is a baked potato.
Lactose intolerance exists.
I will not take the piss.
Lactose intolerance exists.
I will not take the piss.
Food is not a vessel for nacho toppings.
Food is not a vessel for nacho toppings.
There you go.
You're healed.
No more cheese.
No more sour cream.
Eva, Kayla, congratulations.
So what has it?
What have you swapped it out for?
Gambling.
As I said, you'll not be able to walk past a pokey machine for the next 20 years.
Whenever you think of dairy products, you think of the pokey's.
Oh, she started.
I told you, Kayla.
I told you.
You signed the waiver.
It's on you.
Give me a crystal balls and shaft back.
Thank you, Kayla.
Jesse and H-town, Jesse, what's your addiction, my friend?
So I'm addicted to spending money on other people.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm some person who will be like, yep, my share, they'll pay.
And sometimes it's not always my money, it's my partners.
Okay.
Okay, Jessie, I see that a lot.
It's okay, totally common, Jesse.
Jesse, can you repeat after me?
Well, she's not holding the crystal balls all the...
Sorry, Jesse.
Can you please create all the crystal balls, please?
That's a very important part of it.
The crystal shaft.
You don't have to hold that, but you do have to hold it.
I'll decide.
And sign the waiver, please, Jessie.
Okay, okay, okay, right.
Okay, Jessie, you're not a human...
Repeat after me.
I'm not a human charity foundation.
I'm not a human charity foundation.
I will not give away my money, willy-nilly.
Give away my money, willy-nilly.
Unless it's to Sean and one of his three great, small business ideas.
I don't think I want to say that last part.
Please repeat after me, Jesse.
unless it's for Sean and one of his great three small business ideas.
Unless it's for Sean and one of his great three small business ideas.
At the small investment of only $20,000, repeat after me, please, Jesse.
At the small investment for under $25,000.
Yeah.
I will receive a 5% stake of his company.
I will receive a 5% stake in his company.
Starting a taco food truck in this, like.
economy is a good idea.
Starting a taco food
in this economy
is a good idea.
Jesse, you're done. You're done. You'll never
share money with anyone again except me. We'll talk
off here, alright? Let's sort this out. Let's go into business
together, mate. Don't worry. You and men.
Your avos head harder with Sean, Steph
and Harrison.
I'd love to get a little bit serious at the moment, though.
You read a crazy stat this morning. You
mentioned earlier in the show. I was saying, because everyone
here at works going over to Australia.
A lot of people are, yeah, and it's just a third.
It's a thing that's like...
As everyone, two people are.
Seems like a lot.
Yeah.
The most amount of Kiwis in a decade are going over, the ditch.
So, yeah, I guess what?
Better money, economy, not to get too boring, is probably better.
And the weather.
Weather's quite good.
Although not in Melbourne.
But yeah, no, a lot of Kiwis, a lot of New Zealanders are like,
you know what, had it, and we're off.
Which I kind of get, because after COVID,
jobs were really
like people were getting let go
and all the way it was really really scary times
and if you had a job you were so lucky
and like no one wanted to rattle that and leave
and then now kind of post-COVID
worlds opened up again
and you've had a few years of stability
knowing that you've got a job if you're lucky enough
to keep yours and then it's like okay well now
maybe now it's the time and a lot of
New Zealanders are doing that
yeah it seems to be a mass exodus
to I mean I think it was London
for a while but I mean because of everything
so expensive. Australia is a cheaper option
if you want to do an O-E. But it's
something that I really have noticed in my
life. I have had so many
friends move over to Australia in the last few years
and a couple of them moved to Vancouver,
a couple moved to London. I had my 30th
last weekend, had a 30th birthday and I kind of realised what I was inviting.
Just no one there because
all Sean's friends are overseas.
Yeah, well yeah.
People came. Was your fiancé there though?
She's got to be there.
She was overseas.
Oh.
overseas. Oh, your family though, surely your family celebrating your big 30th.
They were overseas.
Surely you were there? Surely Steph, one of my best friends was there on my 30th.
I'd a sniffle.
You were sick. No, but it did. I'm not going to, this isn't woe as me. No one showed up to my party.
Because I did have, like, a good amount of people show up and I'm really thankful.
Producer the new Sam?
No, I didn't go. I was a bit too nervous.
Oh. Just the new girl, you know.
New girl. Oh, my God, that's such a cute excuse.
That's so cute.
I totally expected you to lie?
Well, the other reason is that sometimes they drink a little too much
and then things get a bit crazy.
Oh, we have yet to meet that version of Sam.
I'm excited.
I've met that version of Sam.
Oh, yo.
I love that version of Sam.
You're going to put riding at my 30th.
Anyway, it was like all my top five whatever friends who, I'm someone who I invest a lot
into a few relationships.
And it turns out I invested poorly because all of those people have left me and gone overseas.
And I guess what I want to like be honest right now and open and say in your 30s or like late 20s, how are you making adult friends?
Like if your friends like me, if you've looked around and going, all my friends are actually work colleagues.
Like that's where I've got to.
And not to diminish our friendship.
We've got a good friendship with known each other a long time and a lot of people from work.
But that's what my party ended up being.
I was like, if I didn't have this job, I wouldn't have any friends because all my friends have moved overseas.
It's so, so relatable.
So many people in friendship groups all are.
around El Tiroa are gaping it and doing the London thing and the Australian thing.
I reckon let's cast an out there and see what way did you meet an adult friend?
And then it could give Sean some inspo.
For me, I met a friend at a sign language course.
You could sign up to a course or something, like night classes, although you'd got this job.
Did you really, though?
Like, how many times have you hung out?
We walked our dog once.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I guess I'm wanting to know, like, what's a space, like, a kind of an interesting way that you've made a friend as an adage?
I joined a puzzle swapping Facebook group.
That's crazy.
That we've met up and well, she was in the 70s, but we exchanged a puzzle.
Wait, so the concept of this group is you finish a puzzle and then you swap puzzles or someone else.
Yeah.
And you've made friends of this person.
Yeah.
Gertrude.
Your avos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
I just turned 30 and I realized all of my good friends that I've invested time into over the years,
but you who I work with, have gone overseas.
All of them.
And I'm like, how do you make friends as an adult?
I just work and then I hang out with my partner and I hang out with work friends.
Like what else, how do I make friends as an adult?
Yeah, and so hopefully people listening to this might have a bit of inspo as well
with others sharing their experiences.
Like, Tessa from Christchurch, how did you meet a friend as an adult?
Hey, I met a friend of an old neighbours I grew up with up in Auckland
and did end up joining a social football team
replacing them as the person.
So at the first game, I still didn't know anyone in the team.
But I've known them all now for probably three or four years now.
Still really close with a lot of them,
even though I've since moved away from Auckland again.
Amazing.
Oh, that's a good idea.
A lot of texts coming through playing say and play social sport.
Now, I do play in a social netball team,
but it is with my girlfriend and people from work.
Sorry, fiancé.
And people from work.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So in Tessa's case, you just replace somebody.
It does make it hard.
It's like knowing how to get into a sports team in the first place, I guess,
of people you don't work with.
Yeah.
If anyone's got an end?
Hey, well, you have a radio show, so yeah, put the word out there.
It's quite needy.
It's quite pick me.
Oh, 800 at the edge, be my friend.
Be my friend.
Can I be your friend?
Can I join your friend group?
This is so sweet.
Actually, no, what if we do that on another day this week?
And I pitch what I can bring,
because what I'd love to do, like, dream scenario,
I join an established friend group.
group and then you get multiple friends out of it.
Wow.
That's great actually.
And what are you missing?
And I'll show you, I'll kind of do what I can bring to the table and see if I fit in.
Good.
I like this idea.
Yeah, we should totally do that this way.
Bit needy.
Bit needy.
No, it's great.
Feet from Christchurch.
You've met an adult friend.
It is notoriously hard to do so.
How did you do it?
Yeah, I did it through volunteering, actually.
So all through my 30s, I volunteered for an emergency.
emergency response team and an amazing group of people that even though none of us are in the
team now, we're still mate and we still catch up relatively regularly, although life does get
in the way sometimes.
That's so wholesome.
What a legend fee.
Volunteering.
Great idea, Sean.
Put your hand up and going help people at the same time.
We're just saying you're a legion.
No, that's fantastic.
Such a good idea.
Yeah, volunteering in charities, a lot of those texts.
Someone said join Destiny Church.
Like, I feel like they've got a good community going.
It might.
Or should I you from other.
communities if you do join them and I do love the gays so I don't think it's for me.
But volunteering could be good.
Volunteering is a good one.
I just feel like you meet a lot of like, I don't know, it's horrible to say.
I don't know.
I don't think I'll find my people volunteering.
Maybe I will.
What about selling a house like Sarah?
Hey Sarah, is this how, are you a real estate agent or did you buy a house from someone and
became besties?
No, we were looking to buy a house and we met her and I just, we really vibe together.
so she ended up becoming our agent.
But yeah, she's become a really close personal friend.
There you go, Sean, go house hunting.
You didn't even buy a house from her.
That is crazy.
No.
Good on you, Sarah.
Okay.
So you think go house hunting even though I've got no money
so that I can make friends for someone.
I think the whole lesson here is Sean
is put up your friend antenna at all times
because any social interaction could be a new friend.
That's such a great thing to live by.
I'm going to do that.
Yeah.
Would it be coming off as a business?
bit intense. Could be. Could do.
Yeah, but you already do that, so nothing...
That's that different.
Your Avos hit harder with Sean,
Steph and Harrison.
Cream is a dangerous colour for a dressing gown
because that's going to show a stain.
It absolutely already does.
And it did the day that I first put it on.
What are you thinking?
Buying a cream dressing gown, Steph?
I know, but it's so cute. It's from Kama and it's so cozy.
You want to go for your navies, your browns?
It's such a cool.
Actually, now I've learnt my lesson.
And I've learnt another lesson because I have been away over the last week
because I had holiday leave, but I got sick during that time, typical.
And so I was in my dressing gown a lot.
I'm trying to think of a time that I wasn't in my dressing gown.
No, I was in it the entire time.
And, of course, you know, knife goes on.
There's candy pickups and drop-offs that must be done.
And I didn't really think about it,
but I was wearing my slippers and my dressing gown.
And I, with my partner Jake,
also had holiday leave and also got so
annoyingly. We
went and picked up our 14 month
old from Kendi and I wore my
and I didn't really, I was
kind of like driving down the main road and there was
we stopped at a red light and I look over and first
of all I found it, there was a couple
passing at the red light that I thought
oh my God we're on here. That's an amazing opportunity
for a kiss. Wait, what time was this?
It would have been like almost 5 o'clock
and like full...
In the car? And like driver passenger seat
having a car patched seat leaned over
Pash, Pash.
At the red line.
Sorry, how can I get a fine of $100 for changing my phone?
Changing my song on my phone, but you can actually mack on each other legally.
Like tongue.
So anyway, I'm staring at this action.
Love Island Kiss.
Like full Love Island Kiss.
Can you imagine what it sounded like?
And then while I'm staring at this car that's kind of diagonal to me,
there's a car that's kind of directly next to me that I don't realize they're staring at me.
And I kind of, once I'm done with a patch, I look at this other car.
and they're like just eyes on me
and that's when I realise
they're looking at the dressing gown.
There is something about what happens
when we get in a motor vehicle
and you'd know this right now if you're driving.
People, actually it's dark outside now
but if it's light enough,
people can see you and you forget that.
Oh yeah.
When you're in a car for some reason
I always think like no one can see me.
So I've got a list here, Sean,
of places around everywhere,
small towns, big cities
and I'm going to see
if you think it's acceptable or not
to wear a dressing gown.
Okay. Okay, the dairy.
You know what? If it's within 100 metres of your house, then yes.
If you have to walk further than 100 metres to get to the dairy, then no.
Supermarket.
No. I worked at Pack and Save back in Tohanga when I was growing up. You know that.
I used to do the Saturday morning, early morning shift, and God, did we see some dressing gowns.
The people do it, really?
Oh, slippers, pajamas.
Oh, that's good.
Everything. We're just rolling through in that first half an hour. They did not care.
I love that. I reckon this is great.
you comfy and so what?
What about a petrol station?
Yeah, yeah.
You're in and out, you're in and out, in and out.
Wittles.
No, not Wittles, no.
The warehouse.
Yeah.
So no to Wittles, but yes, the warehouse.
I've just seen some things in the warehouse.
I just think you can't be surprised if you gave the warehouse.
I would agree with you, because you know what it is?
It's the flooring.
I think anywhere with a concrete floor, you can wear a dressing gown to.
But Wickhalls has got carpet, and that's boozy.
Do you know what I mean?
So, okay, so you're saying a might of 10.
Might a 10, totally acceptable.
You wear it.
Yeah.
I like that theory.
Yeah.
What about getting your nails done?
No.
No.
No, but you're relaxed.
No, no, no, no.
No, you can't go to a nail.
You got to almost dress up to go to a nail salon.
What about getting a massage?
You have to take it off anyway.
You might as well just walk up in your dressing care.
You can't do that.
I beg to differ.
Your Arvose Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
There's a TV show out right now.
It is called...
My little suit up.
It's called K-pop demon hunters.
Ooh.
K-pop as in like Korean pop music.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Demon as in scary?
Yeah.
And hunters as in, I guess, trying to kill the demons?
I'll be honest with you.
No point of this name is metaphorical.
Okay.
It's all very much what it says.
Now, I just was looking at it today.
I probably thought it on my Netflix.
Haven't seen it, to be honest.
But it's got me thinking, as I have for a while,
I think TV shows have reached a new point.
where everything's been done
and now
to be unique now
it has to be something
as insane as that
is K-pop demon hunters
and it did get me thinking
but what is the premise?
They're K-pop stars
who hunt demons
Oh
oh oh oh oh okay
Yeah
like they're going to ghost
like scary buildings or something
Okay well
I'll be honest
I haven't watched it
Nurse Sam
Your daughter's watched it
Is that the vibe of that?
She has yes
Is it
K-pop stars going into haunted houses
trying to find demons
and hunt them
I think so yeah
Yeah say
Just checking.
It's what it says on the box, mate.
It sounds crazy.
Exactly.
But it did get me thinking that there are a lot of shows
that probably shouldn't still be on TV at this point.
With all these new shows, let's make way,
I have your top three TV shows that need to end in 2025.
It's that time of the day.
The time to get your news.
Brought to you by...
The NZ TV show Target,
which was 10% consumer affairs
and 90% tradies rifling through undie drawers.
I can't believe that was on at the time it was.
Do you remember that?
Yeah, oh yeah.
And presented by
Camilla the Gorilla.
It's the Edge Top Three.
Oh, is she still around?
I think so.
Oh, good on her.
She has outlasted the natural lifespan
of a silver-pack gorilla, I'll tell you that.
Top three shows that I do think should end.
One.
Is It Cake?
What, you think, Is It Cake should end?
I think it should end.
Boy, get out of here.
It's the best show.
Don't give me right.
It's a master class of television entertainment,
but after one or two episodes,
I stopped being shocked by whether or not it was cake.
And once you lose that, what are you left with really?
Like you got to the point where I'd be visibly angry if it wasn't cake.
Like, come on, guys.
Yeah.
That could have been cake.
And when you're getting there, it's kind of, the novelty wears off eventually.
No, you do have to get your hand pretty ready on the fast forward with that show.
You just don't want to skip to the good bits.
Yeah.
Oh, I just feel like when the novelty of the fact that it is cake wears off.
I'm sure anything could be cake.
You see that in a deal with Johnny Knoxville?
No.
She sits down on the sofa that's made of cake.
It's amazing.
Two.
Emily and Paris.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, this is my most watch show on Netflix, Sean.
I know.
And we should have a chat about it.
Season 5 is in production now.
I know.
In four whole seasons of that show, I don't think anything's actually happened.
Are you joking me?
It's like an attractive Yopro move to Paris.
It's like they honestly just got like, let's get a bunch of models and put them in Paris.
Do we need a script?
Don't worry about it.
We'll figure it out.
she works in advertising
and she's got hot people around her.
That's actually the show.
It's crazy to me that that's still on.
The writers notoriously do write every episode as they go.
It's a bit of a worry.
They write the episode based on where the good lighting is.
I'll figure it out.
Three.
And the third show that she ended,
and sorry after this is a soft spot for someone,
The Simpsons.
Oh yeah, they had to leave ages ago.
It's still on.
Yeah.
The Simpsons started in 1989.
Bart and Lisa are 45 and 43 respectively at this point
if they don't keep going.
Bart would be like on his third marriage.
Lisa is probably like apologisation at this point, let's be honest.
But it's just too...
Yeah, too long.
45 and 43?
Nah, end it.
What are we doing?
It's The Edge Top 3.
Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
And turns out we don't have a citizenship test here in Altia at all,
which is a bit sad, isn't it?
It's pretty Kiwi.
for us to not have a test
like, yeah, you're all good, bro.
Yeah, you're all good, come on.
And I'm pretty sure, because my sister's been
living in the UK for ages, like 10 years,
I'm pretty sure she had to do one to become like a British citizen.
Yeah, most of the countries do it.
America has it.
So, you know, we've got connections high up in this government.
And they've...
Our connection?
Yeah, they've contracted us.
Oh, yeah.
The brilliant minds of me, you and Harrison,
to create a citizenship test for New Zealand.
So Steph is going to add to it this week.
if you would like to have a go at our citizenship test,
0,800 the edge.
If you pass, we'll give you a double-past our edge must-see movie.
Double-past in the movies in this economy.
Crazy.
It's called copy.
It's in cinemas July 17th.
A modern take on the original movie.
Last week, Harrison and I put our brains together.
This was one of the questions we came up with, Steph.
Finish the sentence, left my scooter outside the dairy.
When I came back out, it was stolen.
How about like this?
Left mosquito outside the dairy.
Went inside to get a pie.
Oh!
The correct answer was,
Nick Minut!
Nick Minut!
Ah!
It was too!
Now you should have to know that as a New Zealander.
Oh yeah.
You absolutely should fail the citizenship test if you don't know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And all of our kind of...
I mean, it's important to know the pop culture references, isn't it?
which is what I've prepared for
Hannah from Christchurch
who is waiting on hold on
No, she's not
Oh 800 of the edge
We do need someone to call through for it
We've got anyone yet
Oh Hannah I think Hannah's picking up
Yes Sam saying
Oh 800 at the edge
Call now, call now
Anyway I'll just ask the questions
For people for playing at home
Maybe this is sorry
This is maybe why we don't have a citizenship test
Because no one would actually do it
No one would go to the movie
Everyone's too lazy
Dante will
Dante. How we going?
Good, mate. Thanks for calling through.
All right, I've got three quick questions for you, Dante,
to see if you pass the citizenship test
to live in Altero.
Okay, please finish the sentence
for me, Dante.
Please tell me this is not your...
You've got me.
I actually think that was my bad. My cadence was all off.
Okay, I'll try again.
Please tell me this is not your...
Sorry, Dante, the correct answer was...
Please tell me that is not your penis.
I should have known that.
Do you remember that now?
Yeah.
I do now.
I'm not honest, I don't think on the real day when we do the citizenship test,
we'll get someone who can do a better Chris Warner impersonation.
Yeah, no way.
Maybe we get the real guy.
He has to go out of every single test.
He's on call.
Yeah, yeah.
Two more questions for you, Dante.
During the flag referendum, do you remember that?
Yep.
One of the top flags had a kiwi on it with what coming out of its eyes.
Lightning bolts?
Very close.
Laser beams was what we're after, Dante.
Laser beams.
Yeah, that's okay.
Hey, one last question.
What did Karen threaten to give her friend
who owed her 20 bucks?
I think I'm owed a three here.
I've got no idea.
That would be incorrect again, Dante.
It would be 20 f-and-wax.
20 wax, yeah, Dante.
And unfortunately, you've lived here your whole life.
Have you, Dante?
I have been here my whole life.
Yeah, unfortunately, no longer, brother.
We do have the immigration authority standing a
They'll be shipping you off to Aussie, man.
Sorry, brother.
Hey, that's no worries.
You pay for the flights and relocation, or I'll move away.
Oh, what? Earn more money in the sunshine.
Sounds terrible.
No, we'll give you a movie.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
Selina Gomez has an Oreos flavor.
I didn't see this.
Sean told me about this.
This is like a cinnamon-flavored Oreo.
Yeah, they're all over.
Like, they're putting them in the big buckets when you walk into the supermarket
and my local one there at least.
They're really pushing it.
Wow.
And it's like Oreos, Selena Gomez Oreos.
And I was like, what an interesting career move?
Yeah, she's literally Bellini her from her cosmetics line.
But she's so cool.
Like, she just has to do an Oreo co-lab.
She's like, Oni Murders in the building.
Rear Beauty.
Like, she's got all these other things happening.
Like, you don't need to release an Oreo's flavour.
I've googled it, Sean, what other things she's co-labbed on.
Do you want to know?
Yeah, I'd love to.
She's done a coach co-lab.
It's like, so a bag.
Nice.
She's done Puma.
With sneakers, Selena Gourmi's sneakers.
Sorry, I just want to say quickly, I can't laugh.
I can't help it laugh every time I go through a rebel sport.
And I see the fact that Puma make pants.
So there's like...
Puma pants.
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy?
Didn't know I'm like, I dress that in the marketing room?
We write that down for your comedy show.
I just think it's so funny.
I was like, oh, let's get some Puma pants.
Oh, don't know.
I'm going to write it down for my one.
Can I steal it for my comedy show?
Yeah.
Dream Out Loud, which is her eco-friendly fashion label that debuted in Kmart.
in 2009.
Cool.
Some home and food brands.
Some kitchenware.
Our Place.
Co-Lab with Selena Gomez.
A serendipity ice cream.
I guess it was after the song,
ice cream came out with Black Pink.
A cookies and cream kind of inspired flavour.
And yeah, and now Oreos.
The Horchata cookies.
Do you think she even could list those all to you?
She's probably forgotten.
But for anyone else, that would be like a lifetime moment.
I think my dream,
would be to have my own lasnack flavor.
Oh, yeah.
I'd love a Sean Hill snack.
I'd love a Dunkeroo.
A Dunker Steff.
You've taken my lasnack and you've raised me.
If you don't remember a Dunkeroo,
it was like a dessert-like snack with kangaroos,
but you'd want it to be little steffs.
Yeah, little stef.
Oie, that's way better.
I want that.
Little Shorns?
You can have that.
Dunker Sean.
I'll have Steph tiny tetties.
Tony Steff's.
Little tiny steffs.
Yeah, that's so cute.
I've asked Chat GPT.
What are 10 different pop music co-labs.
And this is like, I think it's just exciting because it's the first time New Zealanders got one.
But they've always happened.
Like Harry Stiles did a watermelon sugar-free gum thing.
We did a watermelon sugar.
This is the craziest one.
Lizzo did a flute-shaped mozzarella stick for a while.
Oh, yo.
That sounds young.
How on earth did I not try that?
That's great.
Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Hey, and that was the podcast.
Thanks so much for listening.
As we did preface earlier, this is now, you know, usually in the outro, things, you know,
have a little conversation that was meant for off here or sometimes to get a little weird with it.
Today we want to focus on Love Island, which is because they're spending away on holiday.
Yeah, normal programming ends here, everybody.
Now we get to talk about what everyone's really wanting us to talk about.
And that is...
Love Island.
You kill it.
If you're not watching this season,
go and watch it.
I haven't watched a season
like I think I always fall off
in the 20 episodes.
This is the first season of like,
I'm still on it.
Oh my God.
It's the thing about this season
of Love Island,
there's no actual couples
anyone's rooting for.
There's no love.
There's none of that.
I was thinking I was like,
who's going to win?
Don, no.
Who cares?
It's all about the drama.
It's about the dynamics
between the girls mainly
because the guys are kind of mellow
and there's no drama going on there.
It's all the drama between the girls
and there's some big personalities.
Like, okay, who should we talk about first?
Shall we deep dive into Harry and Helena?
I want you to guess who my least favorite person in the villa is.
Meg?
No.
Really?
Hmm.
I think I'm empathetic towards Meg.
I just don't think, I think she's just a souperous and just is going to get angry at everyone all the time.
That's just how she operates.
She's so angry.
No, she's an angry person.
Very jealous girl, I think.
Yeah, super jealous.
Um, Helena.
No.
No.
No.
I don't mind Helena.
You say Shakira or Tony.
She's fucking can't stand Shakira
She's so mean
She's such a mean girl
No, Sean
She's not
She's sticking up for herself
Nah
If no
No, my God no
Yeah I can't stand Shakira
Okay so on TikTok at the moment
There's like two sides right
There's the Shakira and Tony fans
And then there's the Halner and Meg fans
I can't believe that we like different people
I'm not a fan of any of them
But Shakira I'm just like she's just awful
Shakira
Can't admit
Being wrong ever
Everyone's always wrong
everyone's doing.
Shekerra's probably the smartest contestant.
She's so clued up.
She knows exactly what she wants and what she deserves.
And to be honest, none of the guys in the villa,
I don't really know the new guy too much,
the guy from Kasa, who she's hooking up with at the moment.
But there's been no guys for her in terms of, like,
emotional maturity, intellectual levels, that kind of thing.
And then there's, like, girls here, like, Helena,
who's just, like, playing a little game.
And I love when Shakura said to Helena,
like, you can be on your hands do,
whatever your energy is here at the moment.
Like it's such a great way to call out Helena for just doing her thing
as if she's on a hen's night and she doesn't know fucks to give
and then Shakira is actually there to find love someone and she's in
she's getting fucked around
I love Shakira
I get that and she just sticks her nose and everyone else's business
and she's like trying to know she knows what she's doing for screen time
I think she's just like doing everything she's smart
she was head girl at her school
I know that's why she's like she's just like I think she's the best one
She's so, so real.
For me, I was in there, like, she's the kind of person that would really annoy me.
I just go get your noise out of everyone else's business.
Just like, do your own thing.
But the thing about movie night, which was great, is like,
she got called out for all the kind of comments that she made.
She didn't say any responsibility ever.
She did because she said, you know what?
I did say those things that were mean,
and I meant them to be mean because I was upset with you.
And she, like, fully was just like, yeah, I said that.
And I meant it at the time because I was really mad at you.
Like, that's her taking accountability.
And you know what?
The other girls had such a soft to eat it.
I was like, producers, what are you up to?
The other girls have said way worse stuff.
Like, clapping when Harry and Helena are like sneaking off to the hideaway together and stuff.
Like, they're just as bad.
I do.
My favourite on screen, who I just cannot look away from is Yaz.
Oh, my gosh.
I'm just obsessed with her.
People think she's AI.
Me and Jeannie love it.
We just, like, when she's on screen, I'm just like, what's she going to say?
she's like always adjusting her here
she's always sitting up so upright
how does their posture so like
but she's got like so much confidence
but not in a way that she's like overbearing
she's like so happy to sit back
but she has so much you can say something
a horrible thing to her she just wouldn't be faced
she's like so much self-confidence
oh she's so good I've got how do I get that level
of like she's great isn't she
yeah she's one of my favourites
my absolute top though is Tony
I found Tony
need to be like quite just like so
dramatic until the movie night
and then I was like actually she's a pretty funny shit
she's so funny she's so funny
and if anyone else is up to date then
I weirdly want Harrison and Tony to
get back together oh he's such an idiot though
he's like 22 going on 18 I know he's just so young
he's just so young this why I don't like Tony because she's like
always having to go at him for not being this thing and I was like
you're dating a 22 year old guy who lives with his mum
he's not going to be that like it's not it's on you
to go, let's not date the 22-year-old,
let's go and date like one of the older boys.
But then she's like getting angry at him
for just being a 22-year-old guy.
He's just a 22-year-old boy on Love Island.
That's fine.
I do love Cash, who she's coupled up with at the moment
at this recording of this podcast.
He's a TikTok dancer.
Is it?
Yeah, he's like massive.
He's got like, I don't know,
700,000 people on TikTok that follow him.
He's such a great dancer and he's gorgeous.
And I feel like he's super wise and very mature.
He's just like, yeah, he's great.
But she just thinks Harrison's hotter.
That's what it is.
No, no, with Harrison, it's the chase.
It's the, he doesn't want me, but he kind of wants me.
So that intrigues me more than this guy who is just like kind of needs me to stay in the villa.
Yeah.
That's it.
It's so good.
Yeah, I guess that's true.
Who do you think's going to win?
I don't know.
They're doing a vote tonight.
It's got to be Megan Dejonna.
It's just the odds at the moment.
Because he's the only couple that I've been together.
Or it will be, um, it'll be Tony and whoever she's with.
Because like, she's got the fan.
vote, I think.
It'll be whoever's looked up to me. Yeah, but no one's coupled up this late and ever wins.
Yes?
A couple seasons ago, what were their names?
Saram or something?
Anyway, it could happen.
The other subplot I love is Helena and Harry.
Like, I love them because they're so toxic, but I love it.
He is my favourite on screen and I think he's like a Kanye-level genius of I'm not going to
probably win this season, but I'm going to get so much screen time and be so watchable.
then I'm going to come back into an all-stars.
Like, if you're going to cast anyone as all-stars from that season,
you're casting Tony, Shakira and Harry.
Yeah, yeah.
Like, Harry, if I found Harry, it again, I've got to watch.
Without Harry, the boys would be so boring.
So boring.
Like, he has provided such great entertainment.
Without Helena, to her credit, would be boring as well.
Like, she's provided some great storylines.
And here's my interesting take on Harry and Helena.
Going on to a reality TV show should be a lot of fun
and should be, like, passion and everyone who's keen.
And, like, having fun and dabbling and,
him and dabbling in her and all the rest of it, which is what they've done.
That's, and when people say, oh, she's just laughing it off and letting him get away with it,
she's just there to have fun.
And, like, they're not in a relationship.
If she doesn't want to get mad at him, then she shouldn't feel like she has to get mad at him
when he's just, like, living his best life.
They're on a reality dating show.
Just let them fucking pass everybody they want to.
I do.
I love that with him where she's like, knows who he is.
And she's like, yeah, I still like him.
Like, it's fine.
It's not that deep.
Because, like, we're open.
He's like, and all the girls are like, do you not think you're like, but how?
Harry did this. Can you believe that Harry did that?
She's like, no, no, I expected it.
Like Harry's a piece of shit.
She's like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, totally. Harry's a piece of shit.
Yeah, no. I actually loved her attitude.
Like, you imagine?
Yeah, nah.
Coming back from CASA, he's like, look, this is everything I did.
I said this girl was more attractive.
My ex-girlfriend was more attractive than you.
I pashed this girl in bed multiple times.
I tugged her here.
I did all this stuff.
And she's just like, yeah, well.
Yeah.
I love that.
I actually love that.
I actually love that.
I actually love that.
I actually love that.
And she's not.
And I think the audience wanted that from Helena too.
It's like, no, guys, they're just having fun.
And I think she is just there to have a good time as well.
Like, everyone's there for social media followers at the end of the day.
Like, let's just not get that deep involved.
The one thing I don't like with them is they were quite obviously
and it came out in movie night.
They were trying to like rip down Dijon and Meg
because I think they all had the biggest chance of winning.
And so they were like trying to sabotage that.
Like Helen was obviously trying to sabotage that relationship.
You can see it.
He's like talking, saying the different things to Dijon that she is.
to...
People are saying that she's a pick me for doing that
because she says like everything the guy
or like any guy, like Dejohn doesn't even
have to be, you know, romantically the guy.
But like anything the guy wants to hear,
she'll say it to him and then to the girl she's like super
unsupportive. That's what people are saying online.
I saw it is how do we like make the
like viewers at home see that these guys aren't actually?
I'm playing a game. I just playing a game.
Yeah. And we'll play the game as well. And that's what it felt like to me.
I was like she was just trying to derail the
narrative of them actually winning.
Yeah. Biggest upset. Harry and Helena
to win.
Maybe that's what I'm rooting for now.
I think that's what I'm rooting for.
She could have a comeback here,
depending on how Meg treats her
in the next couple of episodes.
It could be like Helen's big kind of comeback.
My thing recently,
I was like, when they got back from Casa Amour,
I said to Jeannie, I was like,
if Dijon's and Meg's to lose right now,
like if they come back and they've stayed single for each other,
which they have,
I was like, all he needs to do now
is just properly commit to her,
be a great boyfriend,
she commits to him,
couple up, get a relationship,
and there's no way they lose Love Island
and they win this season.
And like they are doing everything in their power
to fucking sabotage themselves.
Like they've been given this like,
break up, sorry, break up after the show.
It's like three more weeks.
Just get that money.
Get the crown of winning Love Island
and then get out.
I don't get how they're like,
and it's probably why they cast people like this
who are like so in the moment that like they can't.
Helena, it feels like in Harry are the only ones
who can actually sit back and think beyond the next like three weeks.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just a very good time.
How's the gym going, by the way?
Because Sean's joined the gym
because he's been inspired by Love Island.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, it's good.
I'm definitely working out more after watching Love Island.
Isn't it interesting how it like makes me just want to go and get like Botox?
It made me also want to...
And a bikini wax.
Yeah.
It makes me want to get a hair transplant.
Makes me want to have a really nice bum.
There's so many bums out.
What bums out?
There's so many bums out.
I'll be lying if I said I hadn't googled hair transplants
after looking at Harry's hair transplant.
Harry's hair transplant.
Also, Ben had one.
Yeah, and they look good.
They look fine.
I should get mine, I should get a hair transplant.
This is the toxic shit of Love Island, making us hate ourselves.
Back to your thing about bums.
Me and Jenny were talking about it earlier.
She's like, on week, like, three or four of it, like,
how tedious do you think it is to get up in the morning and put a bikini on?
Yeah, yeah.
Like, can you just wear, like, some, like, kind of.
comfy shorts and like a sandwich.
Totally. And like having to dress up every night.
It's a lot of hair and makeup.
Also, do you think there's rules that you can't skinny dip?
Because I've never seen it in Love Island,
like a nighttime naughty, like sneak out of bed skinny dip.
Because that, I think, should happen.
It would be so good.
That's a good point.
But no one's ever done it.
I'm really interested about, yeah, what happens off camera, right?
Yeah, I went on a YouTube tour of the villa.
It was really exciting.
But, like, there must be, like, moments,
because they can't obviously film at 24-7
having engaging chats about their relationships
because it's like, like, from a producer's perspective,
what you want to do is be like, almost separate them all.
It's in points of the day.
They do that for lunch.
Yeah, like that kind of thing.
Cameras are off now.
And then, all right, now everyone can go and be with your couple
and talk about your relationships.
Because they all do it at the same time.
Makes me think the producers have gone right now.
Cameras are going, guys, all go and do it like.
Probably.
I'd like to know how much of the day they're actually on.
I'd love to talk to a producer of love while.
Do they get a couple hours in the afternoon
where they can just go sit by themselves and read a book?
Like is that a thing they can do?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I can't talk about the relationships all day.
That's the best bit.
I mean, I never watch Best Bits, really.
But that is a good thing about those episodes.
You can actually see them, like, have fun and laugh and talk about things that aren't.
So, where you add that.
Well, you're my priority.
I've never, ever watched a Best Bits episode.
It's good.
So you should watch one, and it gives you a real insight into, like, not the relationship chat.
They talk about everything but.
They actually have fun together.
Like, everybody.
The amount of, like,
So good eye-opener.
Just watch one of them.
Okay.
The conversation is, though, right?
It's like...
I think you're trouble.
I think you...
The lines that have been said by every single person...
Let's re-next it.
I think you're trouble.
Hold on.
Stop.
I'm trying to think I can't think of now.
Here we go.
Hey, Sean.
Can I pull you for a chat?
Yeah, right, babes.
We're going to go.
She'll sit...
Fire pit.
Yeah, it's got a fire pit.
You're going to hide away.
It's got a fire pit.
You're a fire pit.
It's got a fire pit.
It's hot out.
You think I could be trouble?
I think you'd be a bit of trouble, yeah.
Do you like that?
Don't mind it.
Do you like being trouble?
Do you think you can handle it?
I can handle it anything, base.
That's the fucking conversation everyone has.
No, and then it's, um, so is your top three?
Oh yeah, that's kind of when they come up.
Well, you want to see, I'm trying to think of another phrase that they always say to each other.
I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket.
Yeah, that's one.
I'll remember it.
I'll say it when I remember it.
But there's just like this chat that like everyone's just had on the day.
It's still open? Yeah, I'm still open.
Yeah.
Have some chats.
Yeah, it's like, what...
Yeah, like, what are you after?
Yeah, what you're looking for?
What are you looking for?
Looking for someone that's beautiful
on the inside and the outside.
That's what I say!
They're all just like,
like, tall, dark and handsome,
but personality, I'm a personality person.
But, like, personality, but also really hot?
I'm after a hot person with personality.
Okay.
Good luck.
And Instagram followers, minimum two hundi.
That was crazy, yeah.
conversations at.
They go, yeah, I think you could,
I think you could, there's something here with us.
Yeah, I think, I think I don't, oh, I don't know,
it's just so, the same conversation.
That's what kills me out of that show.
That's why I think I could fall off.
Like, I've had moments where I just like, second screening too hard
because I'm like, this chat again.
Like, I think I've heard the same conversation maybe 10 times.
Just wait until the episode after movie night.
Drama.
Anyway, everyone, we should do a radio show now.
Bravo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Rover. Music, radio, podcasts.
