I don't know. No, a fibula is, I think a bone in your leg. I think it's a fibria. A fibula. A fibula. Yeah. Fibular is a thing. It totally is a thing.

Oh, Jez. Yeah, you got a bit caught up on that one. Yeah, we would have accepted fibula. It's the two bones between the knee and the ankle. There you go. The fibula and the tibia, right? There you go, Jess. Thanks for playing, Jess, appreciate you.

Your avos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge.

The people's mascot. Your mascot. We've come down to the final three ideas. We've been running this for the last couple weeks. Which mascot are we going to spend our entire show budget on and travel around the country? Will it be the Edge Hedge, which is my mascot suggestion of a green hedge with a face on it?

I just think it's so funny that the mascots are Hedge. So it's stupid. Oh, that is funny. Sorry, what was your one? The Edge Wedge. RIP, Txton, 3, 3, 4. Who misses him? Nah, yeah, he's been eliminated. Sorry, that happened last night.

So, yeah. Your other option is my option, the Edgehog, which is a big mascot-sized hedgehog. Again, with the big googly eyes and the big gloves, it's going to be classic. So taking your votes, because, oh, classic. Oh, he's such a stalwarted way. Yeah, well, imagine your master got kicked out last night.

You don't remember we happy either. So 5pm the voting closes. You can jump on insta edge avos and vote that way. You can text 3343, or let's take a bunch of calls right now on 0800 the edge. Kay, what one are you voting for? Uh, hedgehog Brilliant Sorry, you said hedge there

And then you cut out Hedge? Hedgehog No, Hedge. And I'm not hearing Hedge. I think that's a point for you sure I'm hearing Hedge. I'm hearing Hedgehog.

I'm hearing Hedgehog. I'm hearing you Hedgehog. I'm hearing you. Guys, don't cheat. I think her line's cutting out it's inconclusive. Okay, Lauren's here as well in 0800 The Edge.

I'll explain the mascots again for you, Lauren. The Hodge Hog, which is a big, walking, talking, cute hedgehog or the edge hedge. So it's like a garden hedge but with eyes and gloves, it's a mascot. It's a hedge.

Wait, oh, I've never seen it with that before. That's hilarious. I'm going to go with a hedgehog. The first one. You said it was hilarious, though. I think they're cute. I love hedgehogs. Yeah, good show.

Riddle with diseases. Oh, thank you, Lauren. And finally, Shinar, which one are you voting for? I'm going to go for the hedge as well. Yeah, the hedge. It needs some support, Shinar. Why do you want to vote for the hedge? Because it's like a bush.

He loves the bush. Thank you, Shana. Finally someone gets it. The hedge. It's the greenery. It's beautiful. It's the feminist option, and you're seeing that. Thank you, Shanara.

Vote taken and counted. All right, so sorry. No, the edge wedge Harrison stories is out. Two more finalist remain. and 5 p.m the voting closes. Can I give my opinion? Of course you can. Just since him out of it.

Can I at least vote for one of you guys? Oh, please too, yeah. Are you going to align with one of us? Well, I'm not going to align I'll support. Oh my gosh. I'm still going to back the edge wedge today until I die. Harrison, can I just say I love your look today? You look great.

I look so basic today. I love it, though. Harrison, can I just say you look so basic today? Thank you for your honesty, and I appreciate that, Sean. I've heard you guys rant on about these mascots for days now. especially today, that break. But I think for the originality and the funness, it aligns with the Edge Wedge a little,

but I'm going to go for the Edge Hedge while, I'm sure. It's original. Yes. I like it. Okay. Um, no. No, the Hedge is the feminist icon of a mascot. All right, keep voting, everybody.

Edge Arvos on Insta, 3343-0-800, The Edge, taking your votes the whole afternoon right up until 5. Your Arvos, Head Harder. With Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Sean's five-star fact. I'm on a journey to give you a fact that's so good that you're like, oh man, that's fact is just, I couldn't mark it down.

Five out of five. I'm going to tell everyone I know. Hmm. I'm sorry, I've done so many of these. I'm trying to make the intro different every time. And I'll be honest with you. I don't think it was a five-star intro, but I'll try. It wasn't.

That's okay. That man? So we are your judging panel, Sean. And as you're judging panel, Harrison, myself, Steph and producer nurse Sam, are looking for a fact that is shareable, that is original, and that is well-performed. Yep. I'm very confident in today's fact.

I think it's unique, and I think it's topical. It's relatable to you two, specifically. Okay. Today's five-star fact is, if you're seven-foot tall, you have a one-and-six chance of playing in the NBA. Why do you think we'd be into that one? There's a seven-foot guy who works here.

Who works upstairs? Who? What? If you're not saying I'm walking around? It's a seven-foot tall guy who works in this building. I thought you were saying it was going to be specific for Harrison and me. Yeah, because you interact with this guy every day. I've never talked to that guy.

I can't think of what you're talking about. I don't know who you're talking about. No, disrespect to the guy. He's lovely, but I have no idea who you're talking about. How can you not have any idea? He's the one seven-foot guy. He works upstairs. We've never allowed upstairs.

No, but he sometimes is down here. That's what the suits are. All the lawyers and the money people. And boy, is his suit probably custom-made because he is a big guy. And I just think it's interesting Whenever you see someone who's seven foot You can be like, whoa You've got a one in six chance of playing in the NBA

Where they make a minimum of like $20 million dollars You could be good at basketball though right? Yeah, of course That's how I look at any tall person and go Yeah, you could play in the NBA But I'm trying to get at Volleyball is pretty good

Volleyball would be great for tall people Gutter cleaners Not yeah But I think the point I'm trying to make is there are so few seven footers in the world If you know one or you see one You're like wow you are There's so few of you

that you've got a one in six chance of playing professional basketball. I knew a guy back in Hawke's Bay. He used to work at the local supermarket, stock showers, 8 foot 9. Really? Never did I think once a basketball player. No, not really. That's not true. You can't be 8 foot 9.

I don't understand the feet in the inches. It's 8 of them and plus 9 of them. The tallest man in the world is like 7 6. It's 9 feet. Wow, that's really tall. He wasn't like that. But he hated basketball. He's got a terrible hand-eye coordination.

I don't care about this fictitious shelf sack. The thing about this fact is it's very, it's very shorn, isn't it? He's the basketballer on the show. He loves NBA. Boring. So that's my initial gut instinct. But producer, Sam, what do you think? I think somehow, Sean, you missed the basket.

Oh. Really. It feels like he really airballed that delivery. Stop reading puns off your screen that you've free-written. I did it. I mean, you genuinely missed the basket and broke that backboard. Nice. Guys, those dudes, five-star puns.

All talk, no hoop, mate. All talk, no hoop. It's not even an expression. What it is now. Someone just texted and said the guy from upstairs is called Sam, and he's only 16. Only 16. And he played volleyball for New Zealand. Hey, that is my point?

I told you tall people can play volleyball too. She's a volleyball fact. Yeah, I'd love a volleyball fact. All right, I'll give you the score. One for me. Just not a good one today, man. Oh, really? No good.

No good. One and a half. Oh, don't you think if you see a seven-foot person, you'll repeat it? it to them? No. No. No. No way. I don't think I could like

shout that loud. Hello up there. Can you heal me? Did you know you've got a one in six chance of playing NBA? No. Leave me alone. Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge.

Love on the Edge, Sean, Stephen Harrison. Guys, I need a little bit of relationship advice from you because I have been genuine. I've been hiding a secret from my girlfriend. and they know she's not going to be happy about it. Uh-oh. Oh, are you doing the old hiding and ice cream in like a bag of vegetables in the freezer gag? And then it's like...

What's that gag? Well, it's like, if you ever want to hide ice cream from anybody, then you like put it in stuff that people think's yuck, like frozen veggies. No, I'm 25, so I think I can just do that myself and eat ice from what I want. I know, but like, this just means you don't have to share. So I'm talking about my girlfriend and my mother, so definitely. Steve, the fact that you've come out with that straight away, like, oh, everyone's doing this, hiding ice cream.

Hey, are you hiding food 3343? It's all thug. So I brought, I talked about it. I bought some toys online. What kind of toys? Action figures. Oh, you're a dolls. Your dolls arrived.

And I brought a book, their housemaid. You know, a lot of people, a lot of people were talking about this book. I'm reading it at the moment. Yes, it's great book. So good. We've been talking about it. Yeah. You already read it.

And so, yeah. Did you? Sure. Yeah, I know, I keep talking about it and you guys. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. But anyway, my question. My girlfriend wasn't super happy that I'd brought toys.

She was one of these, the toys, action figures. And I was like, I'm freaking out. I'm like, well, I actually brought you this book. You know, give her a present. I did that for you, even though that was just for me. She said, oh, you had this book. She doesn't read. I was like, maybe it'll be good.

Have a read. And so I'm already reading my own book. She starts reading that book, finishes it within three days. The House Made? Yeah. There's something about it. I was just kind of mine. and I kind of wanted to read it,

but I was finishing another book. I already read it three days. I'm like, oh, cool, just like, you know, slow down a bit. And then, but I brought heaps of books over my life that I've always wanted to read. So there's sitting on a shelf. Upstairs, and I was like, you know what? You can go pick another book from upstairs.

Do you have stairs in your house, flash? Oh, it's very small. And she picks another one, two days. I'm like, okay, just need a, it's like, she's reading the books. She's on fire. I know, but she'll look over my shoulder and go, oh, that's a good bit coming up. I'm like, oh, you're that early in, are you?

I'm like, okay, I don't like this. So, the secret that I've been doing, she's pumped out six books in the last two weeks. That's pretty impressive. It is. But every morning, because I go to meetings or all that other work in the morning, and I'll just take one book from the shelf and just put it on my car. And just take another book from the shelf on my car.

Every single day, one book a day. She's now ran out of books. You're hiding books from her. I'm hiding, but no, because she's being too competitive. Like, she's beating me at this. These are the books I want. You're telling me the competitive one. No.

And she's looking over my shoulder and going, ha-ha, look at you, you suck at reading. Like, I feel dumb. I think you can just let your girlfriend read, eh? And so today she's been reading one, and this morning I stole the one she's reading right now. So she's been texting me all afternoon going, hey, do you see my book?

I'm like, nah. Imagine if she stole the housemaid that you're reading right now. Wouldn't you be gutted? Well, yeah, but it's mine. I brought her. I know, but it doesn't matter who bought my wife. I'm proud of her. I just like, I'll just pull it back.

I bought these for myself, but I can't tell her, so I've been hiding them. Oh, and he says he's the non-competitive one on the show. I'm not competitive. I'm just wanting justice. I can empathise with that because my girlfriend's the exact same. Sorry, fiancé.

She reads like this. She reads books and days, and she'll do that. To me, she'll make me feel inferior because I'm a slow reading. You chuck him in the spare wheel compartment in your car. I think you boys are just taking it that way because you've got weird masculine issues going on. I think your girlfriend's and fiancé is... I don't think it's anything of masculinity.

I think I'm just a bit slow. No, that's not just slow. Let's get, let me get, this is my point. I don't think they're making fun of you. I just think they're excited that you're reading and you're taking it that way. And they're just like, yay, let's bond over the story. Like, we both know the story. I think you're doing it that they think you're dumb.

But they don't. They're just excited. Maybe it's too many words. I feel dumb of you telling you that. I don't get it. I don't take it a word of what you said to me there. A bunch of dumb dumbs you are, honestly. Stop attacking me for being a slow reader.

Your Arvoh's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. Avo Polo! That's a poll that we do every day on the Edge, Ava's Instagram. But today, it's Friday, which means Avo Polo Challenge. Yeah, we'll get a quick rundown of who won all of these polls on our social media this week. Once again, just done on vibes. And one of us will have an opportunity to challenge a poll that we don't agree with. Going to our producer, Nurse Sam, for the updates.

Yes, so on Monday we had Who's the Most Desperate to Get on Celebrity Treasure Island, and Harrison won that. Tuesday we had Who has got the most crust and Harrison also won that Not great so far On Wednesday we had Who Can Throw the Furtherest And Sean won that one

And then yesterday we had Who would look the best on Stranger Things And again Harrison won that Pretty good week for me I not win any this week No stink guys Can I just say one of us challenges

I don't want to challenge any I'm happy with all those wins to be honest I win a challenge Go on You do But it's not because I want to win I think It's because Sean should have won

One of those That he didn't The crust Nope Who is most crust Nope Nope Oligon Sean

Nope Strangy things Because of his glasses Because they game Nope Nope Even though you do remind me of What's her kid's name again

Gannon Mazzar Yeah Well the guy With no teeth Yeah I think Sean should have Absolutely won

Monday's Arvopolo poll on who is the most desperate to get on Celebrity Treasure Island 2026. Why would you say that? Because it's all he talks about. He is so desperado. I think even Sean would admit that he should have won that poll. No, I don't think I'm desperate.

I think I'm proactive. Although producer nurse Sam has pulled him audio from earlier in the week. I do want to come across as desperate. And as a result, have sent two application videos in the past unprovoked. You know, you just got those audition tapes. You've sent through two auditions. Yes, that's crazy. Unprovoked.

One of which I did not receive a response. What did the other one respond with? Thanks, mate. Not this year. Something, something, something. Okay, listen back to that. Should I have probably won who's the most desperate? Yeah, maybe.

The IHU green now, yeah. Yeah, absolutely. You should have won that. So your challenge, you've got two songs to do this. Literally the people that run the TV show, Celebrity Treasure Island, like they're in the building right next door, like 10 metres away from our main building. building door is their building door.

So you've got plenty of time to go to the Celebrity Treasure Island people and go an audition. In real life, unprovoked, just go through their doors and be like, pick me, short hill, and then thus proving you are the most desperate. Like to the Warner Brothers. Yeah, that's a production company.

I've never been into the Warner Brothers offices, but they are right next to us. Yeah. Is she going to do that? I'll do it. It's actually going to ruin whatever chance I ever had of getting on that show, but I will do it to prove I am the most. I am the Most desperate.

So look at the door, talk to whoever's there the receptionist, ask to talk to the boss and just audition. All right. I'm going now. Visual girl, Clara. I want you're filming this. Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge.

I think we've got it. Producer Nurse Sam's going to get it in in time. I just recorded some audio on my phone over at the Warner Brothers building, which is right next door to where we are here at the Edge. Brilliant. Okay. So I can't wait to hear what just happened. So we do a thing every single afternoon on our Instagram,

Edge Arvos. It's called... Arvo. Polo. That's a poll that we do every down here, Java's Instagram. Yeah, brilliant. And on a Friday, we can challenge any poll during the week that we were unhappy with the results. And Sean, well, actually, I was quite unhappy with the results of Monday's poll,

which was who on the show do you think is the most desperate to get on Celebrity Treasurer Island 2026 after it was an outset that's coming back? Sean should have won, Harrison won. And Sean is absolutely a thousand times more desperate than anyone I've ever heard of to get on any kind of reality show. So, the people that make Celebrity Truther Island, literally their building, is about 10 metres from the edge building. Like, legit. They're right there. And so during the last few songs, your mission, Sean, was to go and do an imprompt you, unprovoked, unasked for live audition at the Warner Brothers Productions Office. First thing, it was surprisingly easy to get in there to do it, although they didn't have a reception area.

We had to, like, wait outside and buzz a thing for something. I want it came out and a girl who I assume as a receptionist walked out and we had this interaction. Hey, how are you doing? Hey, very well. My name's Sean Hill. Nice to meet you, Sean. Thank you. What are we doing? I'm a celebrity DJ, a stand-up comedian, kind of a three-pronged trident of entertainment. And I'm here for my Celebrity Treasure Island audition. None of them are here. Like as in this producer. None of the producers are here. but um try again

the new try again next week I'll audition to you and you can feed it back to them go on so what do you think I did at this point oh god I love this

she told you to bug her off really yeah no one was there so come back next week you know I bet they were all there oh they were all of them it's just Warner Brothers play that they all work there they're all there

but she's like where's what they mean no one's there I think you I think you absolutely on the spot auditioned to the receptionist correct

hey my name is Sean Hill And I'm excited to be on Slibertshire Island, 26. These are my strengths. Digging for treasure. Swimming. Surviving on small amounts of grain. Pretending that a bronze medalist cyclist from 2016 Olympics is a big deal so that the audience believe they are.

I can play that up for you. Here's my reaction to winning the $50,000 for my charity of my choice. Dig. Dig. Dig. Oh my God. I've done it. Oh, it means so much.

To be able to give this money to insert charity here, I haven't decided what charity it'll be, but it means the world to me. Thank you. So at this point, someone comes out from the office because I'm making a bit of a racket and comes to check on this poor receptionist to make sure she's okay.

Oh, this looks like a big dog. Hey, mate, how are you? I'm here for my audition for Celebrity Treasure Island. Sean, nice to meet you. Yeah, I'm being abused. Big fan? He seemed like a big fan. Thank you.

Hey, very nice to meet you. I appreciate it. Sean Hill. No, very nice to meet you. Okay, I'll pass it. Cheers. But try it next week. Thank you.

With a big dog. Oh, yeah, I appreciate it. I think that went very well. Her at the end, pretending she didn't know who I was, I. He was saying, I'm being abused. Trying to keep me humble. Well, you definitely stood out. They'll definitely know who you are,

but maybe more for, like, restraining order purposes rather than casting. I'll be the first person who has an audition. tape on CCTV. Well, can I... Wow, well, good luck for a celebrity cheeser all in Denver, Sean. I think we can crowned Sean the most desperate on the show.

I think we can. It's from CTI. Good on you, mate. This is the compliment. Good on you. Desperate? I thought it was most likely to get on the show. No, desperate.

No, no. It was a desperate. Oh, damar. I don't know if I want that. Your avos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Me a minute.

Until voting closes for the people's mascot, will it be the Edge Hedge or will it be the Edge Hedge A quick vote here from Harriet. I want to vote for the Edge Hedge and I need him to have big googly eyes. Perfect. Perfect. It's neck and neck at the moment.

Oh my God, I'm panicking as the ambassador, a promoter of the Edge Hedgehog. That guts me. But anyway, there is a boy in America that I'd like to talk about right now because I'm jealous of him. He's 15 years old and he's a millionaire. Because of an idea that he had when he was seven years old, he invented a card game. Snap. No.

No, no, we're not going to guess the card game. Monopoly deal. No. Skipbo. It's called... It's called... It's a great game. It's called Taco versus Burrito.

Which I've never heard of before. But it must be a big thing in the States. And I looked it up and I like, I watched a YouTube tutorial on all the rules and stuff. It's quite complicated. But it looks kind of fun. It's like making the dream taco or burrito. Like every person playing is either a taco or a burrito. And you pick up car.

from the main pack and you get ingredients or you get like... No, it seems fine. It's doing well because he's just sold it. He invented it at 7. He's just sold it at 15 years old

and he is now a multi-millionaire and his first purchase is going to be a Lamborghini at 15. Oh, so the cards aren't like your standard deck of cards. No, no, no. See, I thought you're standard decker cards

and take on board. How did he sell that? Anyone can play that for free? Is he selling the right to a game he invention with playing cards? Oh, I see. And so I would like to know if anyone listening right now, as a kid, was a hustler. Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge.

It is only eight minutes until voting closes for... The People's Mascots. The People's Mascots. Down to the Edge Hedge or the Edge Hodge. Mary Allen, who are you voting for? Hello, I'd like to vote for the hedge, please. Yes. Yes, Mary Ellen.

Sean shocked when ever someone votes for the hedge. I was, honestly, I was going to vote for the hog, but I decided to change. What made you change? Halfway through. The originality of the hedge and one of the other call is about how it's all feminine. Thank you. Ah, another Bush reporter. No, that's good.

Yeah, the Bush reporter. Oh, amazing. Thank you, Mary Ellen. You're welcome. Thank you. Bye, thank you. All right, we are taking your calls as well, not only voting for our edge mascot,

which, of course, will be revealed just after five. But how did you hustle as a kid and try and make some money, honey? Aisha's here in 0800 The Edge before we get to Sean's Coke dealing story, which has me really confused. Aisha, what did you used to do to make money? I used to deal sherbet in primary school.

Oh, a bit like the Coke story, I presume. No, Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola. So fiof, fiof. Oh, my God. So were you successful at this, I think so. I mean, thinking back, I probably got hustled myself because I was only doing it 50 cents to pop. But I'll make it, you know, nice and sour, you know, add some, what is it, citric acid or something to it?

Oh, you actually made it. Yeah, yeah, so I made it. Like, myself at home. And because my mum would always, I don't know why, I should always hoard like those little potato and gravy pottles from KFC. so I'd use those and then it had to stop so she found out that I was getting rid of all the icing sugar

this is insane you had a lab set up at home to make sure that just break out in the RV out back for Breaking Bad Asha thank you for your story before you go Edge Hedge or Edge Hog Oh we'll go to hog Yeah shot Aisha

knew I liked you Jasmine and Funger A what did you do as a way to get money earn money as a kid So I used to walk the streets of my neighbourhood knocking on everyone's door asking if they had any jobs at their house that they would like me to do

and it's only now I've realised how dangerous that is. It's quite dangerous. What kind of stuff are you getting? Well, I was getting money maybe like $2 for picking up someone's dog poo in the backyard but I got turned away a lot and I never knew why.

I just thought no one was dirty A couple of back rubs A couple of foot massages Oh God No no But even if that was the case I wouldn't have known It's so scary, Jasmine

Before you go Jasmine Thanks for you cool Hedge or Hedge or Hodge Hodge, what should be the Hibos mascot Hedge, definitely Yeah, Jasmine No My story is similar to Asia

Yeah I used to sell Coke at high school I would buy Coca Cola Sorry I was calling it in Coke at the time Didn't really know there was another option for it. Now, I would buy it from, you don't remember One Day.com. Did you ever use that? One Day Sale.

Yeah, One Day Sale. And you buy, like, kind of discounted stuff. I'd buy 24 packs of Coca-Cola for, like, $20, so less than a dollar a bottle. And then I'd take them to school. I was walking distance away in a duffel bag, and I'd have, like, 10 each day. And I'd sit outside the canteen with my friends. And I started off, like, entrepreneurally pitching them to people. It was, like, $2 for a Coke from me.

Step right up. And our canteen was so horrendously overpriced. People started buying them for me instead of going and get a $4 Primo. Of course. So I got to the point where I was just like with my mates, we'd set up there, set up shop and have my duffel and people would come over. I got in trouble for doing it, so the teachers didn't like it.

So it was a real like drug dealer like operation where kids would come up to me at school and be like, hey, Sean, have you got any of the fizz? And I'd be like, yeah, yeah, I got a couple there. What are you after? How many after? Yeah, I'll get two. I'll get two. Thanks.

Yeah, no stress. Look over our shoulder. Make sure there's no teachers. All right, boom, here you go. Give me the cash. You didn't get this from me. Did you get such like a sensation? Like that would have been quite excited.

Oh, I looked into buying drugs on the deep web. I was like, this is a feeling I need to chase. No. Amazing. But it stops that Coca-Cola, fortunately. Oh, thank God for that. Your Arvoh's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge.

Today is the day that we finally find out which mascot will be. The People's Mascots. What a journey this has been. from getting your ideas, your creative suggestions coming through all last week. From those suggestions, three were chosen as our favourites. So three made it into the top three. It was the edge wedge, which unfortunately got eliminated last night.

Rigged, but it's all good. Those are the people's. People voted. People voted, people voted. And your two remaining finalists have been what I've loved in campaigned for for the past week, which is the adorable, lovable, giant-sized edgehog. And what I've campaigned for, the people's choice, the feminine choice, the edge hedge,

a giant mascot that's a bush with eyes and gloves. So thank you, first of all, everybody, for getting around us. We're really excited to have a show mascot because we're going to be everywhere all around Altiero, going to all the staff, all the places, all the people with our mascots. It's essentially going to be the fourth member. of the show, but we just don't know what it's going to be yet. I've

been handed an envelope. Oh my God. Is this for me to do this? You're trying to get me involved in the show because I had the edge wedge and I got voted out yesterday. I guess that's what producer Sam's done. So I'm having to do this. Am I reveal it? Yeah. But it hurts. Don't Steve Harvey this Harrison. You've got to get it

right. No. Should we just say thank you for all the votes? Thank you. Thank you to the people. Thank you to the people. And Sean, whoever wins this right now, good game. Good game to you as well, yeah, I agree. Whatever wins, it's the people's, because it's not ours at the end of the day. It's going to take our personalities out of it, it's the people who have decided. Now, producer nurse Sam, has been staying behind after the show every night for an hour, collating everyone's votes.

Three on three, three, three, three, five on nine hundred of the edge one on Instagram. And she's put it together in this massive tally. And it was neck and neck for a bit, dropped off for a bit, all over the place. Edgewich got voted out. Sorry. It's fine. But now it's between The Edgehog, cute, fun. A lot of people liked it.

I honestly think it's going to win. That's just my vote. Have you seen the envelope here? No. Versus the Edge Hedge, funny. It's a funny idea, it's an original idea. It is the one that I back personally. Thank you.

But I just think people have been really liking the Hedgehog. Yeah, they have been. But it's pretty tight. Although I got an adult entertainment star Leila Kelly involved, and since then, she's rallied a lot of her fans onto it. The Edge Hedge has pushed up a bit. I'll open this envelope. Oh, God.

I ripped it. Try not to. I ripped it. Now I'm going to pull out the paper. Yep, there we go. The winner. And the brand new mascot for the Edge Arvos is. Good pause.

Coming up after these songs. Really? Oh, wait, can we do that? Sure. Actually, yes, yes, okay. Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. It's all come down to this.

The People's Mascot. You've been voting for the People's Mascot. It was pitched by Harrison weeks ago. We're going to come up with a mascot for the radio show, but you decide it. You decide who it is. Will it be the Edge Wedge? No, that one got voted out yesterday. Will it be the Edge Hedge, which is my idea,

of like a lovely shrub, like a bush, a bush mascot? the feminine option. Will it be the hedgehog? You guys like doing that noise. Hopefully it stops soon because maybe it's not going to win. But what a journey we've been on going on going? I just want to say, can I just say because I feel like this is what you'd do

before you win an award and results get called out. Like, thanks for the ride. Thanks for the ride. It's been a journey. I talk to you and Steph and Sean right now, but to the listeners, thank you for this. Thanks for the ride. It's really fun.

And I think, you know, it was my idea all these weeks ago. I got the budget for it. I had the chats with the bosses. We got this greenlit. And so I think... What was it? A little snicker. Sorry, I just remembered that that all happened.

And then I also remembered that your suggestion of the Edge Wedge got eliminated. And I just thought it was quite funny. Oh, it's pretty insane. I wouldn't call this full circle. I wouldn't call it that. It's half circle. You was going to half circle here. Thank you for the ride.

I think in honour of that, what you've just said as well there, Steph, I think the mascot, whatever it is, does have to have. It's a little label on the side of it saying from the mind of Harrison Keith Maybe just something like Is that okay? No I think the people's mascot

Once this is unveiled in a second I think it's the people's mascot And it's just that Okay 0-800 of text 3343 From the mind of by Harrison Keith on the side Which I'm just gonna check with it So Harrison's got an envelope

The results have been tallied All the votes have been collated Once again one vote For every person who did the poll online three votes for everyone who texts on 3343 and 5 votes for everyone who called at 0,800 the edge. We don't know who it is. But the moment is now

what will the people's mascot be? What will we spend a lot of show budget making a costume for and bring around the country everywhere we go, Harrison? Collated all the votes by producer nurse Sam. How many votes were there, Sam? 7,000, she told me off here.

Jesus. 7,000. 7,000. 7,000. Really? People were very invested in this. There's a lot of people. Or is that just the amount with the five folks kind of the quality?

I think we accumulated quite highly because we had a big system. I've got the envelope in front of me. If you throw to another song, I'm going to actually hurt you. I won't throw to a song. The winner of the Edge Mascot. The Edge Arvost mascot, 2025 is coming about these ads. No, we've got to stop doing this.

It's the edge hedge. No! Yes! Yes! Get in! Get in New Zealand! Well done to, Sean. Well done the people.

Oh my God. It's been a long journey. Thank you for everyone who believed in the hedge. I know it's silly. It is. It's silly. It's a hedge. Poor hedgehog.

There's a person in there. Enough of them die. He's another one. Jeff, it's time to put the edge. Shog down. Steph. Splat. I am offering you a ring onto the life raft of the edge hedge.

Welcome. I'm on board. I'm on board. It's not up to me. It's up to the people. The people decided the edge hedge will be the Edge Arvo's mascot. Oh, so good. I'm glad that everyone jumped on board and chose the feminine option as well, the Edge Hedge.

Do you promise it has googly eyes and big gloves? Look, this is the next step of the journey, isn't it? I don't know necessarily what the Edge Hedge looks like. If you've ever voted on our polls, you'd know. every time I put a different photo out because I'm not quite sure what it will be. So I think we figure that out together. What does it sound like?

I've got some ideas. Sure I do. What does it look like? Let's figure out these steps. Okay. And we'll get there. The Edge Hedge. The People's Matt, everybody.

Thank you. Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Going into the weekend, I've got the top three right now. Big news story today. You may not have seen it, but it's quite funny. There's a new world that's been built in Auckland in the sub. of Point Shev, and they've bought up 12 houses to build this new world.

And I just showed you, Steph and Hugharison, the photo of it, one house has refused to sell. So they're like, oh, we'll just build a new world around him. So there's this really great photo online right now of this kind of new world, and there's one driveway into it, one driveway out, and this guy's house is just bang in the middle of it, refuses to sell, just stay in there. Good on, yeah. I mean, the guy loves his house, obviously. You're going to want to move now, though.

Yeah, it's like, everyone's going to be driving through his house to get to the same way. You can imagine being that close to, like, bread and chocolate. Yeah, he becomes super fat. Yeah, it would be handy. But I think, right, massive power move from the sky. He's going, no, I'm not selling my house. They offered him twice what his house is worth. No, he's not doing it.

It's a great power move. So I've got your top three power moves to pull on people this weekend. It's that time of the day. The time to get your news. Brought to you by... When you have your morning coffee and it's really, really hot and you didn't realize that. And so your tongue kind of really hurts all day.

I hate that. And presented by... Snorting Raro. It's the edge top three. Okay, top three power moves. You can pull this weekend, just like the man who refuses to sell his house to New World. One.

If you see someone crying outside a club this weekend, ask them if it's because of their hair cut. Oh, probably not nice. There's a way to assert yourself as a bit of authority over someone else. As a bully. Can we reenact it? I don't quite understand. So how would it work?

So someone's crying outside of a club, and you just go, oh, are you crying because of your hair cut? Oh. No. That does feel mean. it's power move Yeah, okay Yeah

So The reverse acknowledgement To power move Someone this weekend If someone goes Hey man You respond with Hey I was just about to say

Hey to you Yeah I kind of like that So you jump in there So you never get big dog By someone saying hey first Pretty good So Harrison goes

Hey man Hey I was about to say hi to you first Okay yeah Yeah that is a power move Three And the third big power move You can pull this weekend is if you're in a group scenario with a bunch of friends

and there's one that you kind of like want a big dog you ask them a question in front of the group and then follow it up with giving your history. Nice. So just like, oh, hey man, are you sure you going to order that off the menu given your history? That's a good one. What's another example?

Does it work for anything else? Oh, do you want to sit? Are you sure you should be sitting by that wall socket given your history? There's a lot you can do with it. Are you sure you want to drive tonight, given your history? Maybe we should take separate cars, given your history. Exactly.

Oh, power move. It's the edge. Top three. Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. How'd your audition go today, man? You had a big audition before. Yeah, I had an audition, guys, and I signed an NDA so I can't talk about it.

Oh, non-disclosure agreement. Yeah. Oh, go on, break it. Break it. I'm not going to break it. But what I will say is that I played a bird. Ooh. Is it like the Muppets, big birds coming back?

No, but it felt like that. Really? It wasn't a kid's thing. wasn't a kid's thing, but I was a bird. An adult's thing that's a bird? A cartoon bird or a puppet bird. Motion capture. Oh my gosh. So that's when you wear the, you know, the little dots all over you.

The gimp suit with the ping bongles all over you. Like Gollum? Yes. You're going to be Gollum. Well, I don't know if I'm going to get it, but that was the role today. So cool. But auditions are always really nerve-wracking. I've been lucky enough to have, I'm going to say, 15 this year, which sounds like a lot, but it's not.

It's not. He's like America. They have one almost every second day, you know. Oh, okay. So I was so nervous for her. I had to learn so many lines. And then I went in and did the audition.

And I kind of fumbled over my lines. And he's like, oh yeah, just try one more with a bit more energy. I was like, okay. I did it again. And then as soon as it finishes, he goes, sweet, see ya. I was like, I was that all.

He's like, yeah, that's perfect. You just did exactly what I want. Thank you. I was in there for three minutes. Really? It's the fastest audition in my life. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? I think it's a good thing.

Because he had no notes for you He had no notes Which is like unheard Like the guy before me He took about 10 to 15 minutes So it's one of the two right Either he loved it so much There's no notes

It's perfect That's why I want to see Or there's no way That's no way I can improve this guy That's all I've seen I need You're so dreadful You're done It's one of the two

But you think it went well So that's positive I think it went okay But like What I was saying About how I've had a few auditions This year Because I talked to my friends

I've had like two You know I've had about two auditions Because the industry is a bit like It's a bit rough at the moment and this isn't really a story I'm just telling you what's been what's happening with actors these days is that you know like your Disney pluses

your Netflix and all those ones they're making so much content you know they're notorious for it like overconsumption of content and competing with each other all trying to make money but now they're gone actually this isn't working out very well for us

and that's from like Disney Plus with their Marvel shows and their Star Wars like nobody watched those shows and they got really bad press and so now they've been like, all right, we'll make less but we'll have the same amount of money but we'll just put it into less shows

which is great viewing wise but for actors and crews that's like so much work that doesn't exist anymore which I just found out today which is quite fascinating I was a major and he was like you're lucky to get 15

and it's like some of the other clients that we have like they get none I was like why is that and they're like oh yeah because all these streaming services are like yeah now we're stopping making hits of work and that's the thing with acting

Even some big actors, like it took them 200 editions to even get like the role that made them break out. You just have to, it's a numbers game. Yeah, that's pretty crazy. That's crazy. Is your big goal to like, because just before when you said that in the States it would be like every other day you get an audition, which is not like it is in New Zealand with like the industries being a lot smaller here. Is that like something you'd want to do? Like move to America and try.

I'd love to. Yeah. Are you going to leave our radio show at some point? There's radio studios over there. There radio studios over there. Yeah, it would be up and doing the show at like totally. in the morning. Yeah.

Yeah. But, New Zealand's a hard pool because there's not a lot of money in New Zealand, so all that money goes to reality shows or Jordan Street. Yeah. That's where it goes. Yeah, true.

So if you're an actor out there, Kia Kaha, hang in there. If you're with crew or anyone in the entertainment industry, just keep pushing through. Do it your love. But, man, it is difficult, and that's okay. One day, one day it'll work out for you. Yeah.

Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Going into the weekend, We thought we helped you add a little bit. You know, if you want to seem cool, stand out from your friend group, these are some slang words that don't currently exist, but Steph Harrison and myself have been trying to subtly move into conversation to get them going.

So you might be able to repeat one of these, pull it off, your friends. We'll be like, wow, that's a cool word. I'm going to take that. Okay, so I'll go first. So you're more than welcome to use this this weekend when you're lying in bed hung over. So maybe tomorrow morning, Sunday morning, and you're feeling rubbish.

And the thing that you would say to your mates is in the group chat with like, oh, fun night. Oh, my God, it was so fun how you were feeling this morning. and you would say full bucket full bucket. What do you mean? A vomit?

Yeah. So you could say, you could say just bucket you could be like, oh, not good, eh, bucket. Full bucket for full hungover.

So full hung, full bucket, bucket. Cool. Okay. I like it. Thank you. I like it.

Got legs? I've got one. That's when you're on the couple of drinks with your mate. And one of them, you know, you're in between the phase of tip tea

and a bit drunk, you go, guys, just warn you, I'm a bit schlanver. Where's that from? What does that mean? Shlanva, is that, but it's not a current word, is it? No, I made it up. Oh, you made it up. I thought that's what the bit we were doing

is making up words. Okay, yeah, yep. I kind of make up slang words. Yeah, making up slang words. Slanver. Okay. Slanver. It's going hard to remember because it's not an actual word.

Okay, well, that's the, my one is, you know, it's a term for a, it's called a leaky Lambo. So you'd say this about a guy If your friend's gone on a date You go, I went on a date this weekend But the guy was such a leaky Lambo And now what that means is

They're like So attractive They're like Hot as But they've got one massive thing wrong with them Like one massive red flag They're a leaky Lambo They're almost perfect

Lamborghini oh my god dream car dream guy But he's leaky He's a leaky lambo He's so good in every way But he's a leaky lambo man It's like And you know that one thing's going to ruin it So you can't do it

You can't buy a leaky Lambo Oh, use that this weekend. That's a good one. Yeah, use that. Use that. Okay, another one for me, if your mate's like, hey, you want to hang out and you're, like, full calendar,

like you just don't have any time. You've already, like, you've just got non-stop things to do and you actually can't meet up with your mates. You say, oh, no, I'm clogged up. Clogged, I'm clogged, is. The shed. The shed.

Yeah, the shed. Clogged up. Too clogged up for that. Not bad. I like that. I got a slang word. Theth. Pardon? Fifth.

So you are just, like, making up sounds. Honestly, I don't think I got the brief award to do. I've written down. I've invented like six different words. What are the other ones? Just run through them quickly. Stored, shlamvler, prok, flip it, chunt.

Yep. Don't use the last one. Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Hey, thanks for listening to the podcast. Hope you enjoyed it. Today, guys, I realised that I've been paying

a subscription to something for two years. I didn't even know what existed. Ladder Kelly. No, I wasn't an only fan star. Was it Amazon? Another New Zealand fan. OnlyFam? No, that wasn't an OnlyFans account.

Because you're aware of those ones. No, I don't subscribe to any OnlyFans accounts, despite me using a creator to push my mascot agenda. No, it was like a gaming thing, like some Xbox thing. I'm like sign up to Game Pass or something, which costs $12 a month, which I've been paying for two years. That's annoying as hell. I hate that.

I hate that for you. Can you just go into your phone and look at what your subscriptions are and sign out or something? Yeah, I signed out of it. But it was one of those ones that, like, It doesn't come up on your phone, like under subscriptions. They're one of those sneaky ones. I just caught the transaction.

I was like, what's Microsoft taking? Because you say Microsoft takes $12.50. You think it's just like a... Yeah. I'm getting Amazon. I think I've signed up to Amazon twice, and I'm getting charged twice for Amazon, which I cannot figure out for the life of me how to solve that.

And then another thing comes out every month as well. Some... I'm going to find it right now. It's like, it goes to somewhere in Sydney. It's like Google Sydney. And I'm like, who's this? What's your partner, Jake's your account? Nah

Apple.com slash bill For a dollar sixty nine That'll be storage Do you pay for your storage I pay for storage And I always get those Okay so that's storage Okay what's another one that I

Okay here's an Amazon It goes to Singapore 1099 That's prime It's so annoying Yeah prime day And now I think we've talked about it before But really hard

To unsubscribe from Amazon So hard Really hard You know what's fucking hard Hello Fresh I'm subscribed from Hello Fresh And afterwards I immediately Googled their like subscription trapping court case.

Oh, yeah, yeah, this was recent. Yeah, they got charged with five cases because honestly it took me, I think, 10 minutes, which doesn't seem like a long time, but when you're diligently on your phone trying to cancel something for 10 minutes, that's crazy. The app, there's no way to do it within their app. You have to go through the website and then contact them and then go through like these portals, then go back to an email. And it's like, yeah, I try and like, I'm subscribed with quite a few things now.

but if I want to subscribe to something new my thing is I go back and look at everything else and subscribe to like I got a gym membership and I was like well if I get that then I have to cancel something that's like the role with baby toys if one comes in

one's got to go out otherwise there's just too much happening I'm a chat GPT subscriber I don't need that fuck off you How much do you pay for JetGPT $39? No

a month It's not a week It'll be a month I don't know to do photos and things I have been using it for photos because I really wanted my bathroom some artwork of my...

Larry taking a shit Yeah But you get two free ones a month There's nothing I don't think you need to subscribe to there Yeah maybe I don't I subscribe to and I'm sure you both are as well Which is fucking

A lot of coin out my pocket Is cap cut Yep That's like 30 bucks a month cheaper than fucking What was I getting Split Split or something

What was the other Splice. My God, that was expensive. Do you know my hack now? I actually just edit everything in TikTok because the editor is now a fuse with Cap-Cut. And in TikTok, if you edit something, it automatically saves with no watermark.

So I edit everything in TikTok and then I just repost it to Instagram because there's no... It's also an issue that, like, I mean, it could buy you in the bum later, but Cap-Cut now owns anything that's edited on there. Same as TikTok. So they now own any video you put out there.

That's theirs. It's not yours. Isn't it the same with every social media, though? Or is it not? No, I don't think so I think if you edit it on the platforms, yeah it is But like, I don't know I just feel like

In court that could bite you in the ass And you know, like ours I fucking subscribe to Which I fucking hate doing But I'm too into it now And it's gone too far Is my blue tick on Instagram You subscribe to that? You could do like

Really? Yeah, I could get one now But I brought it I was like when I had 100 or 150 I was like I'll buy that Great for business I was like great Looks good, perfect

and now I, every month. How much is that? $25. Have you guys got it for free? Yeah. What did you do? I don't know, I just got it. You just got it?

Yeah. Really? Because I feel like back in the before, before it, how long have you had it for? I'm done. I do not know. Before, what was it? Before you could buy them, they were a lot easier to get. Do I have one?

But now that you can buy them, it's quite a slog to be able to get one. Yes, I do. They presented to you. Weird. I should look into that I've been a while now It's been a while now It's like 20 years

Pretty much 30 bucks a month The other subscriptions that are annoying Are like the yearly ones And then you're like oh okay I have to remember that I have to unsubscribe But I may as well keep it until like August the 1st And then I'll definitely remember to Not subscribe anymore

And then it clocks over And then it's a year No some you don't have a choice Like my peri track of one It's called flow Pay for that It's called flow yeah Do all the girls pay for it

Can I get on that Can I get on that? On my peri Yeah, yeah, I just don't know how your moods to go. Might help. That might help. Yeah, annoying. Annoying is how.

Well, anyway, if this has been insightful at all, it's a chance for you to go and look at your subscriptions this weekend. Yeah. See what you're spending money on. Your avos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Rover. Music, radio, podcasts.
