This is a podcast from Rover.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Hey, welcome to the podcast.
A big show today, we found out who is the most likely to be cancelled
out of the three of us.
And, oh, the jury was kind of all of us.
Pared a reason to.
We also celebrated someone on the team's first Father's Day.
Oh, beautiful moment.
That was huge.
And, oh, how do we even say this?
Steph reunited
with a stalking victim
That's exactly how you should put it.
That's how it is.
Enjoy.
Your Avos hit harder
with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Yay!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Happy Friday, New Zealand.
Welcome to the end of your week.
I'll be honest, Steph.
A little bit off the note, that first one there.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Did it?
No, worse and worse and worse.
God.
It's embarrassing.
Oh man.
Hey, it's Friday, everybody.
Yes!
Hey, yeah, yes.
And what a show it is.
We've been DMing celebrities
for something behind the scenes
to try and get some responses
and, do I say,
one of the team members
has greatly embarrassed themselves
and we're going to bring it up later.
We also have an update
on our missing hedge.
So I can't wait to fill everyone in
very, very shortly on that,
but we've received another creepy,
random voice note from the person that's stolen our edge hedge mascot.
Yeah.
It's very weird.
The whole thing's very weird.
Your avos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
The Edge.
Easy Money is the game.
Imagine winning a thousand bucks ahead of the weekend.
You can do that if you can name 10 words with the same letter within 30 seconds.
Joining us today, we've got...
We have Matt from Christchurch.
What's up, Matt?
A bit of noise going on in the background of the office.
Yeah, a bit of a team there.
Matt, I'm going to, not a lie,
this is the first time I've ever seen this
in someone's idea of what they're going to spend the money on.
You're saying you would spend the money around the office?
Like, share the money around the office.
We're probably going to hit the town later tonight in Christchurch.
It's going to be pretty rowdy down here.
Oh, I love this attitude.
As in like, you're going to win.
So fun.
So I also read that as you're going to get some new pens.
a new lemonadeer.
I was reading, I'm like, oh, good on you, man.
You love your company.
Yeah, nice.
Matt's a little bit more irresponsible than that, which I love.
So, Matt, are you in your office mates all calling up to play headless as like an agreement or something?
Yeah, yeah.
It's like an easy money syndicate.
Exactly what I was.
How many people are there?
We've got five of us.
There's two hundred each.
It's a shame it's not ten grand to be fair, but we'll take two hundred.
And who are we?
What are their names?
Show-old.
We got Christy, we got Tia, we got Josh and we got Woody.
What a crow.
Great.
Guys, I reckon you've got this.
I hope so.
You've got a team.
We've been quietly confident.
What letter have we got?
You've got the letter F, Matt.
F, F, all right, okay, so I'm just going to...
Yep.
S, F, F, four, okay, we're just going to try and steal you, so I need to get some S letters.
F, not F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F.
Finger.
Oh, F, F.
F.
F.
Oh, F.
F.
Far out.
F a fidget spinner.
Nice.
Fudge.
Fudge.
Oh, God. We're not winning.
See, this is the problem when you do have a team around you.
It gets a bit much.
I reckon, Matt, go with your guard because it is a race against the clock, 30 seconds.
But if you need help, that's when your mates should chip in.
Because otherwise it might get a little bit confusing.
Anyway, here we go.
30 seconds, Matt.
Your letter is F.
The rules are we need 10 answers, all beginning with F from the 10 different categories.
If you get stuck, you can say pass.
and hopefully we'll have time to get back to that one.
No repeated answers, and your time will begin when I finish saying the first category.
Matt and the team, are you ready?
Woo!
Yeah.
Here we go.
Matt, for a thousand bucks spent on Boosternight with the office.
Sounds like it's already starting.
Please name for us.
Something you'd buy in summer.
Fruit.
A number.
Four.
A job.
A car brand.
A body part
Foot
A makeup product
False slashes
A boy's name
Bread
Something you'd see outside
Fox
Fox
A type of bread
Pachasia
Something round
Bipple
Out of 10
How does it feel team
What's a picassia bread I think
Yeah
I'm seeing you some fantastic answers there
Because I feel like without her
Was it Crystal or Christine?
Oh
That was Christy
But please don't call her a little legend
Because she's got a big enough head already
Well I'm afraid without Christy
You absolutely wouldn't have got that
So well done
Good job team
A hundred percent Christy's win Matt
Not yours I'm sorry
I got through
Alright a thousand bucks coming your way
And we're going to make it 1100 actually
Because BNZ are going to give you another 100 bucks
So you keep that one
Don't tell the other team about it Matt
That's just for you mate under the table
From BNZ
All right
They believe there's an art.
Starting something new in like any art form,
you need the right tools to make it work.
Easy money back Monday, 3pm, same time, same place.
And look, it can be one.
That's how you do it.
It feels good to give it away.
So good.
It's great.
Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
But it is Father's Day on Sunday.
Father's Day.
On Sunday.
Sunday.
And, well, look, a member of this very show is going to be celebrating.
his very first father's day.
That's true.
A couple of shows ago, you might remember
this moment when
a certain Harrison
presented a little shoebox
to Sean and I, and we weren't sure
what was in it, but he was very excited about
a new pet. And all I would say is
sleepless night. A little crying.
What?
What is in that box? Crying.
You ready to see?
Yeah, please. We get filming this all. You can see it on Air Jarvos
Instagram. He has it a little bit of poos.
What is it?
So, be aware of that.
Box is still short. Okay, please.
Welcome to the world.
Charlie.
And this is when Harrison revealed
his Tamagotchi to us.
Which is a little virtual,
digital 90s toy.
Can I just say?
I really didn't know
this segment was going to happen right now.
I know, we're surprising. I thought this was
to do with Steph and Rocco
your son's got a father
but I'm quite touched
this is about me
this is cool
this is about you
I mean
of course it's about you
it's your very first father's day
how long have you
had Charlie the Tamagotchi
for now
uh four sleeps
and nailing it
from all accounts
I mean Sean and I
we're not there
we're not in your home
we're not in your fight
to really see
your bond with Charlie
the Tamagotchi
we did lose them for a day
me my partner Sarah
I've noticed though
I've noticed how it's changed you
and they say
when you bring a child
into this world
you're never the same
your outlook on life changes.
And that's the biggest thing I've noticed about you, man.
It's aspirational for me as a friend to see your perspective on life.
And your priorities change, I guess.
It's about this Tamagotchi.
It's about this beautiful virtual life form.
Yeah.
The pub are way less now.
Yeah.
No, well, you've got big responsibilities.
And you're going to really tear up here, Harrison.
So Harrison celebrating his very first father's day on Sunday.
Get the cameras on them.
Get the cameras.
We have heard from your love.
life partner Sarah and she has given us a message to help celebrate.
Hey Hazie, happy Father's Day.
Charlie and I are so grateful for you and everything that you do for us.
So thank you for always doing the night shift and we're so lucky that Charlie has your good looks.
Charlie loves when you play with him and you feed him and you clean his poo and turn off the light.
Yeah, we're just so grateful and we love you so much.
Happy First Father's Day.
And then just when you thought, it couldn't get any more emotional,
we managed to get a message from Charlie himself.
Hi, Dad.
I know it's kind of early days, but I just wanted to say,
happy First Father's Day.
You've been such an incredible dad to me,
playing with me when I beep at you, throwing my little toy around,
beating me, scratching my virtual belly, you know, like that.
I know you kind of lost me for about four to five days
there down the side of the couch, and that's okay.
Because I know that you were still looking for me
and you were thinking of me.
Anyway, don't want to get emotional, but I just wanted to say, happy first father's day.
I'm so glad you're in my life and are the person to push my buttons.
Wow, so that is Charlie Harrison's Tamagocchi.
Personal message there from son to father.
Wow, what a family I have.
He's holding back tears.
You can cry right.
It's crazy.
The message for my girlfriend actually got emotional.
You're welling up.
I was actually emotional.
It's a Tamagotchi.
But I was like, oh, babe, that's so lovely.
You think I'm a good father?
Wow.
Wow.
Well, happy Father's Day to everyone celebrating this week.
You know, all the dads, all the moms who are dads, all the caregivers out there.
We hope you have a fantastic weekend and a very special happy birthday.
Father's Day, rather, to Hugh Harrison.
That's an honour, of course, of course.
And from something beautiful to something not so much, you've got a story about something that happened in a changing room.
Oh, yeah, I went to a fashion event last night, guys, and I turned out being an embarrassing
laughing stock.
I hope Charlie's not listening
anymore.
It's 100x golden on the edge.
Your Avos, Hit Harder with Sean,
Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Guys, my friend, his name is Jordan,
he's a fashion designer.
Okay, and he owns this shop
and this label called Checks Downtown.
Checks?
Checks.
Checks Downtown.
Checks Downtown.
Oh, cool.
That's the, sorry, it's not physically downtown.
Yeah.
That's the name of the label.
Oh, okay.
And he's done a collaboration with Popeyes.
And so last night, there was a launch event.
where all these, it's kind of just like influencers
end up going to these events.
Do influencers prefer to be called content creators
or is it okay to call them influencers?
I mean...
You are one.
I prefer content creator.
Yeah, okay.
But in the end, we are influencing people.
But aren't we all?
Exactly, but all influencers, really.
Which is why I don't really love going to these events
because you guys know I make content
but I'm not the one who's like,
I don't know, I don't really do selfies.
I don't really do like,
fit checks and stuff
Sean does
and I respect it
I respect it
but I'm not good at that stuff
I'm not super confident like that
about myself in that way
and so you go into this things
I'm like oh my friend
it's his labels
I'm like okay I'll go support him for sure
and I walk in full of people
every Kiwi influencer you can think of
is in this room
and I have to make some content
while I'm there as well
and they just film everything
you know all these people will film everything
I need my own content
for my socials
and so I was like you know what
My girlfriend's there with me.
I'm like, babe, I reckon, I'm going to go around.
There's 10 pieces of clothing.
I'm going to go and try them all on in the changing room.
Can you just record me?
Kind of like a little fashion montage.
Oh, like from Devilis Prada where there's like a montage of all the fashion.
Yeah, like I'll pull the curtain and I'll be like, you know, I'll come out of a different
outfit.
Oh, do all that.
I love those.
Fun.
And so I wait for some influencers to come out of the changing room.
It's like, all right.
Yeah, coast is clear.
I'm going to go and do it.
You just sit on the chair outside and just record me coming out.
And so I go in
I try on the first shirt
I open the curtain
She's got the camera on me
She goes
Ooh
Should we size up
In front of everyone
No no one's
Like everyone's empty right now
It shows me and Sierra
She's like oh should we size up
And I was like yeah
I feel like the sizes are all a bit smaller
To what I'm used to
I do need to go size up
But they go to be honest
Babe I can't be bothered
Going through everybody
And going getting new sizes
Of all these 10 different bits of clothing
I'm just going to rock this
She goes yeah
But if you buy anything
and definitely make it a size-breaker.
I'm like, thank you.
I know, for sure.
I go back in, try a new piece on.
It's pretty snug.
I walk out.
There's a girl there next to Sarah,
and she's just filming.
Filming you?
Yeah, she's just filming me.
Trying, like, after you've tried it on,
you've walked out of the door,
thinking it's empty and someone's filming you.
She's filming me.
As in, like, she's trying to get it for her own content.
I'm like, ah, but awkward, you know,
consent, please.
Yeah.
Bit awkward.
And she kind of looks at her and goes,
do it again, go do another one.
I'm like, okay.
I walk back in.
I try this shirt on.
Pretty much a crop top.
Like, I am, it is snug on me.
But again, I'm like, I can't be bothered going back out.
Like, I just can't be bothered.
And so I opened the curtain.
No word of a lie.
About 20 people all standing around just filming me.
They're all standing around.
I'm just in the middle there.
And the snug t-shirt crop top.
And they're all looking to me.
And my girlfriend's kind of looking at them.
I'm just like, oh my God, what is happening?
And they're like, yeah, cool, cool, do a turn, do a turn.
I'm like, oh, okay.
Like so organly.
I know.
Dance, Mikey, dance.
Literally, it's why don't go to these things.
It's so awkward.
I felt so insecure.
Yeah, that's horrible.
And then I'm like, oh, that's enough.
I'm serious.
You got seven more pieces to try.
I was like, do I?
No, do I.
And then I ended up buying nothing.
Well, I got this actually.
You're wearing a hoodie.
I am wearing a hoodie.
You're rocking it.
He gave it to me the end.
I reckon it's one of those things that,
you know how everyone's got something
that they're self-conscious about?
Every single human being does.
And it's something that no one else ever notices.
But it's something that you kind of
obsess over, but no one else cares.
I reckon you probably rocked it.
You probably looked amazing.
They probably hyped me out, but imagine
you know the fear of when you walk out of a changing room
to find your loved one.
I hate that. Imagine that.
With 20 influencers recording you.
YANGER.
Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
The People's Mascots.
If you've not been following this,
we decided to be the first radio show in New Zealand
to have the People's Mascot.
You created it.
The Edge Hedge.
actually literally created by listener Kelly.
We had this amazing Hedge mascot outfit.
We were going to make its launch today.
Then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, it's gone.
A couple of shows ago, we saw the Edge Hedge.
And it's called Studio A where we are right now.
There's two studios at the edge.
What's the other one called?
B?
Studio 2?
I don't know. It confuses me.
But there he was sitting right by the door,
just staring at us while we were doing the radio show.
And then we said, bye Hedge, and then we left.
The next day when we came into the Edge, Studio A, gone.
Nowhere to be seen.
And that's when we received a really spooky DM from an Instagram account that has like,
you know those username on all these numbers next to it, no profile photo, no followers, no post or anything.
And they sent us some really spooky, like a voice memo telling us that they have stolen the Edge Hedge and that we're never going to figure out who they are.
Now, we were like, what was going on?
So confused.
Well, we're just going to look at the security footage,
which is exactly what we've done.
And you can see the security footage.
We've posted it on our socials, Edge Arvos.
Does anyone here know who that was?
No, it's actually like, when I saw it today, it gave me shiver.
It's quite disturbing.
Because you know when someone just comes into your space and you're like,
ooh, who are you?
You're touching our stuff.
Yeah, like you don't go here.
No, you don't go here.
And it's like none of that
what I presume is not you guys
Oh, it's not us
You can see the person
It's definitely not us
It's black hoodie, black pants
But like this, it's not our
Someone a little smaller than us
Yeah, so this mystery person
Came into the Edge HQ
And stole our mascot, the Edge Hedge
Between 11 and 12pm the other night
We've gone back to see the footage
But what we haven't heard yet
Is the new message
That we've been deemed
From the mystery person
Anyone.
Producer-no Sam has recorded it in,
so we're going to hear it all together for the first time.
Here we go.
Sean, Steff and Harrison,
you think you're so clever
getting that security camera footage, don't you?
Well, guess what?
I'm smarter, I'm faster,
and I'm never getting caught.
Unless one of your listeners can figure out who I am,
I'll give them their first clue on Monday afternoon at 3.30.
But I'm pretty confident
no one will get it right.
So I'm willing to put $500 on it.
Bye for now.
Wait, this guy didn't do a game?
He's going to put 500 bucks of his own money up?
I love a game.
I love a game.
Okay, there's a bit of a positive.
So it's someone that we're going to know who it is then.
If they're saying guess who it is win 500 bucks,
it's obviously not a random.
Oh my God, it's a game.
Was it like a celebrity or something?
I don't know.
There must be a person that our listeners will know.
The famous person.
So there's going to be a clue on Monday at 3.30.
Yeah.
And then I guess clues going forward throughout next week until someone's figured out who,
what mystery person stole on the edge edge.
All right.
Well, get over to Edge Arvo's on Instagram.
You can see the video.
And they win 500 bucks.
Yeah.
What?
Oh, fun.
And then this time on Monday to hear that first clue, I guess,
and try and win that 500 bucks.
Your Arvos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Avo.
Polo.
It's a poll that we do every day on our...
Oh, wait one more time.
Arvo, polo.
Why are we doing it again?
Because you've got to say...
I've been the third time, because you've been interrupted again.
Arvo, polo.
Challenge, challenge, challenge.
That's a poll that we do every day on our Edge Arvo's Instagram.
And then on Friday, we look at all the results over the week,
and one of us who have lost a poll,
or won a poll that we weren't happy with,
get to challenge one of those polls.
And we do the Arvo Polo Friday challenge.
Yeah.
Could not be simpler.
Thank you.
Could not be simpler.
So these are done on vibes every day.
Obviously, it's just up to you to vote.
We don't even make much of a case about it.
This is our chance to challenge them.
Producer Nurse Sam, if you don't mind running through what we had this week.
Alrighty.
On Monday, guys, we had who is the most likely to get cancelled?
Harrison won that one and Steph lost.
Come on.
That's not cool.
I will not be challenging that one.
Oh, really?
Who has the neatest handwriting?
Steph won that one and Harrison lost.
Okay.
We'll not be challenging that one either.
Two knocks.
On Wednesday we had Who's the Best Builder?
Sean won that one and Stephanie lost.
Sad boys.
And yesterday we had who is the best at gymnastics.
Stephanie won that one and Sean lost.
Okay.
I'm considering that one.
Actually, I'm happy with all of these results this week.
I won't be challenging at all.
There's no way you're the best at gymnastics.
No, there's absolutely no way.
But that's fine.
It's fine if I've got that impressive.
out there with the people? I'm happy with that.
Well, I'm definitely going to challenge one of those.
The creepiest or the handwriting,
because I don't, I'm not the creepiest.
Canceled.
Sorry.
Not the creepiest, not the creepiest.
That would be a good poll for next week, though.
I think you've won that poll, mate.
Have I won that poll before?
Can I challenge it now?
No, no.
You can challenge it in court.
I want to challenge the poll.
Being cancelled, because I don't reckon I'll get cancelled.
I truly don't.
I don't know that.
I think people voted for you because you're the most online.
You have the highest possibility of being cancelled
because more people are going to see your stuff.
If me and Steph post some rogue things,
it's kind of going to go under the carpet a little bit.
You've got like Kim Kaye following you and stuff.
I don't know, but you guys have also had social media for longer than me.
I reckon there's some dirt out there, guys.
Oh, if you scroll back, you mean.
Yeah, I reckon.
I've never had Twitter before.
Yeah, but I don't know, Harrison,
you do seem like the most cancelable
because there's a story that we are,
literally legally not allowed to repeat on air anymore
involving peanut butter.
That was like my third week in the job.
I know.
I didn't know what you could and couldn't say.
Well, that is cancelable.
You shouldn't say that to a friend.
Okay, well, I'm challenging it, guys.
I'm going to challenge this.
How are we going to challenge it?
How are we once and for all going to find out
out of the three of us who is the most cancelable?
I think the only solution is that we have to give producer nurse Sam
a contact from our life, whether it be a friend or a partner,
and ask for our most canceivable thing we've ever done
in the form of a message or a voice note.
We play them out next and the listeners decide.
Your Arvo's head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Avo Polo!
Challenge, challenge, challenge.
Avo Polo is a poll that we do every down on Edge, Ava's Instagram.
And then on Friday, we look at all the results
from the polls over the week and somebody gets to challenge one of the poll.
I, Harrison Keeve, lost a poll of who is going to get cancelled.
I won the poll.
Who's most likely to get cancelled?
And I'm not happy with that because I don't think I'll get cancelled,
so I'm challenging it today.
The most cancelable person on the show, me with 127 votes.
Landslide.
You didn't need to play that.
Landslide.
Not even close.
Cheers.
Right, so how are we figuring out, because with a challenge,
you're unhappy with the result.
So how are we figuring out who is the most cancelable?
In the last few songs, producer Nurse Sam has,
DM'd our best friends
from life.
Your best friend Georgia, my best friend
Brad Harris and's best friend Sean.
Not me.
A popular misconception.
And asked for the most cancelable
thing that they know we've done.
Oh God, I'm so worried.
Are these okay to be played out
on M? To be honest,
one of them I wasn't sure about.
Who's one? Who's one?
I'm not sure about
steves.
Here we go.
Harrison's is borderline.
Sean's also a bit more,
but Steph's one,
I was like,
I don't know if this isn't right for it on here.
Oh my God,
what did you do?
Okay, so we need a caller, I guess,
to decide,
or are we going to text poll it?
How do you want to do it?
I don't know.
You guys decide.
Text poll.
Text poll.
3343.
Okay, 3343.
After you listen to these,
who is most likely to get cancelled?
This is my clip from my best friend,
Brad.
I haven't heard this.
Once when we were at school,
Sean pretended that he was in a wheelchair,
to win some competition for some TV show
but when they asked for like a photo
for the finalists
we had to pick his nana
up and put her in bed and then use her wheelchair
and honestly I felt really conflicted
being part of that.
I reckon that's pretty bad
if steps is worse than that.
He's exaggerating we didn't make my
we didn't like put my nana in bed and take a wheelchair
she just happened to have a wheelchair that she used sometimes
but it doesn't matter about you bettina to be a person
in a wheelchair to win something.
Yeah they was like a sticky TV thing or something
I don't even know if you're just you're going to
I didn't win it.
I didn't even win it.
Why did you do that?
Sympathy vote.
What were you trying to win?
I think it was like a PlayStation 3 or something.
They didn't win that.
That's so bad.
But they're more likely to give it to someone
whose legs don't work, aren't they?
Oh, God.
No, but aren't they?
I know it's not a good thing to do.
This is why exactly I knew she should be the most cancelable.
Sean's going to get cancelled.
Sean's going to get cancelled.
Mine can't be worse than that.
Really good mind.
It's a 17-year-old boy mentality.
I'm not saying it's a good thing to do.
I'm just saying.
Were you entering sticky TV competitions at 17?
That's why I needed to be in the wheelchair.
Cancel him, cancel him.
He's so wrong.
Okay, who are we going to hear next?
Well, if Stephs is the worst, we've got to hear Harrison's next, right?
All right.
This is Harrison from your friend, Sean.
Harrison's birthday.
We're at his parents' house.
I bought Harrison the hot ones set because at the time he was really obsessed with hot ones with Sean Evans.
And so we all did the hot ones challenge.
we all ate all ten of the wings, all ten of the sources,
and it just completely demolished us.
Like we were just absolutely thrashed.
And Harrison came up with the idea that we should all just start fingering each other's mouth.
So we all were just finger blasting each other's throats until we started throwing up.
Then our friend Roy, he throws up onto some food that we were eating,
throws up onto some fries.
This is kind of more of a group effort.
We convinced him to kind of eat some of his.
vomit and some of the fries.
Oh, mine's not that bad. That's all good. It's not cancelable.
It's kind of gross. It's gross. It's not cancelable.
It's the worst thing I've done. All good.
You made your mate eat vomit from a chip on a chip.
His own vomit. It's okay.
That's not bad. I'm happy with that.
I'm so happy with that. It didn't involve a wheelchair on my nana who can't walk.
Jeez.
All right, and let's hear Steph's reason of why she's going to get cancelled.
This is...
Next.
Your Avos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Arvo.
Polo!
Challenge!
Harrison!
Get back in here, boy!
If the poll that we were challenging was,
who's the most punctual?
I don't think you'd lose the challenge.
Oh, sorry, guys.
Right, so, where were we?
Oh yeah, we can just press on and just play some more music, I reckon.
No, no, I think there's a big reveal here.
The challenges that Harrison's decided to challenge today
is who is most likely to be cancelled.
This happened earlier this week.
The most cancelable person on the show, me with 127 votes.
Landslides.
It's bull crap.
So, as the challenge today, producer nurse Sam's reached out to all three of our best friends individually,
asked for a voice note on the most cancelable thing we've ever done to play them out on the show.
We heard mine and Harrison's earlier.
This was Harrison's.
We all did The Hot Ones Challenge.
It just completely demolished us.
And Harrison came up with the idea that we should all just start fingering each other's mouth.
Oh, this sounds bad, when you?
It sounds really bad.
Kind of there.
Your friend was sick on some food
and then you convinced him to eat it again.
Yeah, we made each other vomit
and then vomit on a food and ate it.
That's all it was.
So it's fine.
Cance old.
This is my friend's one of me,
which is not that bad.
Sean pretended that he was in a wheelchair
to win some competition for some TV show.
I'm shocked your friend
thought that was okay to even share with you
to say on radio.
Yeah, that's insane.
It's insane, Sean.
There's a reason I haven't talked about that.
I'm very upset at him.
I was a kid.
You're 17.
I was a...
You're 17.
Yep. Almost an adult.
Also, 17 for a sticky TV contest.
There's so many polls on that story.
Why I had to pretend to be in a wheelchair.
Right, so 3343 is our text line.
You can vote between Sean or Harrison on who you think is the most canceivable.
And that's it.
Or Steph.
Hey, producer, Nurse Sam, you've said this is the worst one, right?
Yeah, I reckon.
Right.
Oh my God, no, I know what this story is.
And I'm...
Okay, so this is my best friend, George is sharing it.
And I've never, ever, ever told this story before.
It was a few years ago now and we were away.
We were camping up north.
One of our friends is a big car guy and he, you know, he had this awful orange beater.
And it was his pride and joy.
Anyway, this guy got really drunk.
He was getting on everyone's nerves.
He spewed in our tent and Steph wanted revenge.
So later that night, she got one of those like empty, you know, two minute noodle cups.
And she peed in it.
And she went and put it all over the bonnet of his car.
And that's all I can share for now.
That's a crime.
That's not bad.
I was shot with a bon on the car.
I thought it was going somewhere else.
Oh, I think you're going to pour it on him or make him drink it.
I'll cancel bono of the car.
Make some noodles with it.
Yeah, that's all good.
Yeah, it's fine.
I think Sean is disgusting for what he's done.
Look, it is so bad, Sean.
It's up to the listeners.
3, 3, 3, 4, 3.
Sean's there for Harrison.
Okay, so the text poll.
The question is, who would you cancel out of the three stories you just heard?
Who's the most cancelable?
and I guess the winner will be next
It wasn't even that bad actually
I'll think she stopped there with the story to be fair
What happened after?
No, I think that's the end.
Oh my God, okay, we'll find that out in the podcast's outro
Your Avos hit harder
With Sean, Steph and Harrison
The Edge
Arvo! Pollow! Challenge, Challenge, Challenge!
That's a poll that we do
every down at Air Java's Instagram
and on Friday, forget to challenge the polls
I challenge today's poll
about who's the most likely to get cancelled
Sean, Steph and Harrison.
You just had our best friends reveal
deep dark secrets about ourselves
and cancelable stories from our lives
Harrison you made someone eat food
that they spewed up on it's pretty gross
Yeah, made my friends vomit
Yeah and that kind of stuff
Yeah, mine was kind of vomit related
This drunk guy spied in our tent camping once
And so I peed in a cut and poured it on his car
Yeah, not bad, but Sean's horrific
Pretended to be in a wheelchair to win a competition
Very, very, very cancelable
So we've been asking 3343, just text in, quick text poll
Who is the most likely to be cancelled
So we can wrap this thing up?
The name that is the only name that has come through.
Oh, no, there's one, Harrison.
On 3343 is the name Sean.
And Marangie, you are here, you voted for Sean.
Why do you think he's the most cancelable?
I just think that was absolutely diabolical.
I think the P cup is all right, you know.
The dude was being a loser anyway.
Yeah, I just think the P was diabolical.
I'm not the P, sorry, the wheelchair.
The wheelchair.
It's pretty large.
pretty low.
Yeah, I mean, you miss every shot you don't take.
But I didn't win it.
I didn't take the prize away from anyone.
And it wasn't like, enter only if you're a paraplegic.
I was purely playing that card.
Okay.
Let's move on.
Thank you, Mardingee for the vote.
And it is a resounding, overwhelming response on Sean's the most cancelable.
So I'm glad I'm glad you challenged today, Harrison.
Yep.
The Edge 5 star fact.
Okay, moving on.
The 5 star fact.
It's a segment where I present a fact, our team, Harrison,
Death, producer, Nurse Sam, rated out of five,
based on performance, originality, shareability.
Today's five-star fact is
Sheep are the only animal that can be gay.
Huh?
Gay sheep are a real thing.
And here's the best part about it.
At no point has anyone ever experienced sheep being isolated because of it,
being excluded because they're gay.
No one's like, hey, do you hear about Steve?
He likes it up the back.
Never say that.
They never say.
that.
Where you just got cancelled.
Can you refrain from being
the cancelled?
What's being cancelled about this?
It's an amazing thing.
I love the LGBT community.
She can be gay and they don't discriminate each other
because of it.
I think it's a beautiful fact.
Okay, we're gonna, okay.
And up the bag, joke was quite funny.
Stop it.
It was a shit, Joe, don't do it twice.
You even wrote it down and looked at your joke
and then said it again.
I wrote the whole thing.
I had to write the fact off.
Anyway, so what do you mean sheep, the only animal?
Human beings are animals.
Are we not?
Are you joking me?
We're mammals.
Mammals.
Yeah, we're mammals.
And a mammal is a part of the animal kingdom.
We are, of course, animals.
Every breathing thing is an animal.
I don't think that's true.
Are you...
Who am I working with?
A very cancelsable human being.
Very cancelable.
Oh, from a scientific...
A human being, of course, is an animal.
Obviously, when I'm referring to animals,
I mean, like, animals.
No one goes, oh, you mean humans?
Yeah, well, humans are animals.
What's a stupid fact?
Because like, that's just not true.
I've heard of lots of different animal species.
Being in a couple with the same sex.
Absolutely.
Penguins, yeah.
Shayland just texted.
That's the animal I'm thinking of.
Penguins can absolutely be in a same sex couple.
Penguins aren't mammals.
You didn't say mammal.
You said animal.
What did I say?
You said animal.
And that's why I was like humans are animals.
Okay.
The only non-human mammal.
Zero.
Zero.
Zero.
Zero.
Rose arrow, is it? Oh my God.
Jeez, man. No, Steph gave me a five yesterday.
Oh, wow, I wish I
did it. Producer Nussam?
You're correct,
but Steph's also correct. Many
animals can be gay. Yeah, of course.
I'm, like, astounded
by this fact. I kind of like it.
Yeah, thank you. Yeah, sheep can be gay.
A lot of animals are gay.
And no, but there's, like, scientific underpinnings
like to do with the brain and their biological function.
And I just, I'm interested to see how that links
to humans. So for me, Sean,
today I give you a four.
Thank you.
And Sam, thank you for taking the time to appreciate it.
Sheep are the gayest animal, I guess I should have said.
Sam gave us way more interesting information than you did, Sean.
Do someone else in text him?
Fire him.
Hey, do you know what?
If he hadn't just made me a beautiful English breakfast tea,
I'd be saying the same thing.
But he's pretty good at making tea.
Oh, man.
All right, all right, to one from me.
But Sam, you get a two.
Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Right.
on Sunday.
And my lovely, most amazing life partner, Jake,
he's celebrating his second ever father's day.
We've got a 16-month-old boy.
And this Sunday, I really want to make him, you know,
feel really special and loved it.
He's such a great dad.
He's such a natural, born to be a dad,
way better at parenting than I am, honestly, truly.
He is just remarkable.
So I want him to have a great day.
And I'm not really a card person for birthdays and Christmases
and special occasions.
I just think.
But on this occasion, I'm like, oh, he needs a card.
He loves a card.
He always gives me cards on special occasions.
And I feel like your second father's day, this time last year,
Rocco was just a little baby.
So it was all kind of a blur, newborn life.
It was just kind of, it was too much going on.
We didn't really celebrate.
So this is the proper first, like, day out that I'm imagining.
So he needs a card to remember forever and have a great memory.
So I went shopping this morning, and I'm like, oh, they are right?
They're out of fashion now cards too.
Well, yeah.
People don't already do cards these days.
Bolesburn, Steph.
No, I don't do it either, really.
What about a handmade card?
No, it's effort, and I've just got no time to do that.
Put some glass on it?
Are you joking me?
No.
Handmaic card, make it in the songs.
So, but I agree, Harrison.
I'm not really a card person for that reason.
I think they're kind of silly.
But some people are card people.
Jake's a card person.
And so I was like, oh, I'm not going to spend heaps of money on them because it's a card.
So I went to where everyone goes to get a good old bargain.
And that has came up.
And I walked on in and lo and behold, there's a Father's Day card stand.
And I'm like, brilliant.
I'm going to be in and out.
KAMAT's not going to get me this time.
No, Surrey Bob.
Kmart will take my $2 and I will walk out with the one item that I went into Kmart to buy and leave.
It'll be the first time it's happened in the history of mankind.
Someone purchased one thing from Kmart.
Well, that was the goal.
And I saw a card.
It was two bucks.
And I was like, brilliant.
And then I thought, huh, I have seen a recent TikTok video of a pretty good easel at Kama.
Like a painting easel.
My kid's really into drawing at the moment.
So I was like, oh, gosh.
He's not even two.
He doesn't need an easel.
I'll go check it out.
I'll go check it out.
And so I find it, it's $35.
I'm like, oh, it's pretty good for a wooden easel.
Chuck it in the trolley.
Didn't have a trolley because I was just getting the card.
So I ended up just walking around with it and getting a trolley, bringing it back.
be like, oh, the trolley seems,
but empty with just one item in it.
No word.
What else can I fit in this trolley?
When you have to walk back to get the trolley at Kmart,
you know things have gone wrong.
I did come in for trolleys, but I'm back now.
The person who's scanning receipts at the Kmart entrance must see that all the time.
These poor people that are just walking for one thing
and they're like doing that guilty walk back to the door.
Oh, no, I'm not trying to steal these.
I'm just getting a trolley.
So there I was just walking around Kmart.
And then I pick up a few other things.
He was really into rocking a baby at daycare at the moment.
And so I picked up a little baby, a little toy baby.
And I bought him like a silicon tablecloth that you can draw on and you can rub it out.
And he's really into drawing.
So I was a bargain, it's ten bucks.
We'll get that.
Oh, that's so cheap.
So that's the thing with Kmart said, ten bucks, ten bucks, ten bucks, ten bucks.
Tell how they get you?
So I get to the checkout and I've got my $2 Father's Day card,
which is the point in me being there.
My receipt says $97.
dollars.
Steph, that's outrageous.
Buy another card, make it 100.
Yeah, true, you should have rounded it up.
So, yeah, this is my PSA for everyone
panic buying cards tomorrow morning
for Father's Day on Sunday.
Don't buy cards? Don't do it. Don't do it.
This is why they don't exist anymore. Stop buying cards.
Your avos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge. Right, we've got a
very exciting, top secret project coming up in the next
couple of weeks. It'll all make sense
very, very soon if you keep listening to the show.
But what we can reveal is it involves a lot of celebrities.
So we have all of us on the team been messaging and DMing
and calling as many kind of people on our phone list as possible
and reaching out to people that we've never even met before in the DMs
to see if they want to be part of this very secret thing.
Yeah, I've realised heavily on the three of us to reach out to people.
Yeah.
Which is a nerve-wracking thing.
When you're reaching out to someone who's a celebrity,
you don't know who they are,
how do you even start that conversation?
Yeah, and it kind of kicked off from yesterday in the podcast.
Steph, if you listen to an Ed Jarvis podcast, Steph,
messaged a celebrity.
Do you not say who it was?
I've messaged so many celebrities.
You can't remember.
Like, apart from, you know, like New Zealand people.
I've hit up Shay Mitchell quite a bit.
She's an American, well, Canadian, actually,
but she was on pretty little liars.
Many moons ago, one of my favorite TV shows.
I've slid into her DMs just because I think we'd be out,
we'd be good mates.
Yeah.
Like, how you do you want to hang out?
And when you flipped the phone to us yesterday,
you get quite a lengthy paragraph.
And, you know, if I was a celebrity and read that,
I'd go, skip, I don't care.
Like, this hasn't got my interest.
So can you just, like, tell us,
what will have a turn?
Can you tell us how you'd message someone, a celebrity?
Go.
Okay.
So I would start off by being like,
Hi, big fan.
I'm Steph, a radio host in Altiro, New Zealand.
and I love your vibe
Love your work, love your stuff
I think we could be friends in real life
No, no no
God put a word limit on it
Jeez
That's already bad
No one's reading this
I think don't say I'm a fan
Say I love your work
Okay
Because you're not a fan
You want to work with them
I like that
You know
What's your technique then?
Sorry I think we can hang out in real life
Two keys are going to work right
The friend thing weird, don't bring that into it
It forms over time
But I feel like a connection that could be made
This is what I do
because we've been mentioning celebrities.
Let's say this is a guy, okay?
Hey, bro, I love your work, doing this thing at my job at the moment,
and I'll put a little handle of what the job is or whatever.
That's what I do.
Get back to me, if you want, all good if not.
Love you.
Ooh, why are you saying love you?
Because I love them.
I guess it stands out.
It stands out.
It definitely stands out.
Has it ever worked?
Like how many celebrities deemed you back?
Yeah, it's worked for sure.
Definitely has
You guys know that one of my faults in life
Is I've got quite rude email etiquette
I'm short in my emails
I just don't like, I'm not an exclamation mark
It's not for me, the hey, how are you doing?
Oh my God, thank you so much.
Just emails
The friendliness, I think it's the word.
Nah, not in an email.
Not on an email.
So I treat messages the same way.
For me, it's a numbers game.
I'm messaging people, I'm straight to the point
Hey, this is what we're doing.
We'd love to do this with you.
Let me know if you're keen.
Boom, out.
That way,
It's kind of the opposite of what Steph's doing.
So they look at it, they know what I'm asking within one line.
They see it, they go, and they're either bank me, they're not keen, or they go, yeah, I'm keen.
And they know.
I like to warn people up.
I like people to feel loved.
I like people to feel like special.
You know what I mean?
Like there was one person that I reached out to, like in the very lengthy chapped along message.
And she did respond.
She's this UK personality.
And she just wrote, hey.
Yeah.
And that was it?
Just hey.
And then what did you reply to that?
I go, ha, hey.
You say ha, ha, hey.
Yeah.
You're not good at this, Steph.
You're not good.
And that's the only embarrassing message you've seen, Steph.
Because we heard that you've been messaging someone else.
Over the years.
Yeah, shame at all you said that.
No, someone else, and they haven't been messaging you back.
And now you're at a position in your life where you actually know this person.
And they do not know that you've messaged them this many times.
And we're going to break it down next.
Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
We've just been talking about DMing celebrities, different tactics to try and get a celebrity to answer your message on Instagram, TikTok, etc.
And I think, Steph, it's time for you to be honest with the listeners.
There's one person that you've been messaging back in the day.
And dare I say till recently, who we actually now work with.
And I think it's a point of embarrassment for you.
And, by extension, myself and Harrison.
Yeah, this is a decade-long endeavor.
but this is so embarrassing.
But back in the day, here on this very radio station,
I did the night show from 7 till 10.
And on an Australian radio station,
a certain radio host did the same hours.
So she was doing the Australian night show radio thing
and I was doing the New Zealand one.
And I just idolised her.
I just looked up to her so much.
I thought she was so talented, genuinely,
just one of the world's best broadcasters
and her name is Ash London.
Oh, your literal colleague now.
She is filling in for Meg's maternity leave.
I'm a bit nervous.
At the moment, yeah.
She's worried Ash might be listening.
Yeah.
So you are quite high and mighty about how you're getting these responses at the moment from celebrities,
but let's dial it back to 2016.
Harrison and I have done some digging of your old Twitter account.
Do you remember your Twitter accounts there?
I know exactly what tweets.
Treat a lot of celebrities back in that.
We look at Jamie Curry and messaging her.
A bit more retainable.
Eli Mathewson.
Oh, yep, yep.
No, he's a good friend now.
I know exactly what tweet you guys are referring to.
And it's taken me, it was nine years ago,
and I hoped that this would be dead and buried,
and it has been for nine years.
And I can't believe that you guys are going to read this out
and make people aware of how cringy I am.
Right, take it away, Harrison.
Tweeting Ash London.
Ash doesn't know who you are.
No.
Not met you.
You're tweeting her publicly.
This is what you said.
At Ash underscore London.
Ash!
I'm Steph.
A radio plus TV host in New Zealand.
Girl!
Three R's there.
GRL.
No.
I.
Girl!
You are so amazing.
What's your email?
And again,
Girl.
Publicly?
I can relate to everything you say.
This has been haunting me.
I knew this has come up in some...
How have you and Ash not discussed this?
Beyond this,
Steve's messaged her so many times.
Been to Steph's idol for ages.
You guys actually went up...
Tell the story.
You went up for breakfast with her once
when she came to New Zealand.
You and Sharon,
and she followed Sharon back and didn't follow you back.
But you continued to message her.
Now Ash London works with us.
She does our breakfast show.
Steph has never addressed this with her.
Ash does not know.
I actually tweeted again after the girl message.
Read the next one out.
It's the one above that one.
Oh, I don't
I said girl twice
That's awkward
And now it's three times
Shit
Monkey hiding its eyes emoji
Why'd you do that
Really used a lot of emojis back in the day
You know what
If you've got someone you look up to a role model
I would say
Carpe Diem sees the day
And just reach out to them
And see what you get back
And in that situation
It was nothing
It was not
She didn't reply
Or acknowledge it in any way
but, you know, okay, so let me just hear me out.
The reason I was like so besotted with this Australian broadcaster,
I just looked up to her so much.
I listened to this podcast that she did called Radio Game Changers,
and she talked about how she was feeling confused with her identity
and all she knew was radio and how she wanted to kind of venture out into the world.
And this was about the time that I wanted to go and travel and stuff.
And I was like, oh, I relate to everything this person's saying,
and we're so in the same wavelength.
That's why I asked for her email just to like say thank you, basically.
for doing such a great podcast conversation.
Couldn't have thanked her in the tweet?
And I also...
It gets worse.
It gets worse.
I reached out to her manager.
I googled who her manager was.
And I emailed her manager.
Stalking her a bit.
And she never got back to you.
And now she works with us.
You see her in the office every day.
I think the manager was like,
oh, I'll pass this on to Ash.
But thank you.
Hey, Steph, don't worry.
Harrison and I have reached out to her.
Well, yeah, she works here.
Yeah, yeah.
She's holding on the line right now.
And next on the show, you're going to read...
We're going to read these tweets out to Ash and some of these messages,
and we're going to get her a live response for you, Steph.
We're going to get some closure.
You don't need to do that.
You need to own this, okay?
It was nine years ago.
It's all good.
Oh, God.
Your avos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
About reaching out to celebrities.
Different methods we use to get responses from celebrities and someone who does not have any
ground to stand on is our very own Stephanie Monks here.
Steve, Steve. I've got no shame.
And, you know, when I've got my eye on something,
I go for it. And even if
it's embarrassing or cringy, I go
for it. And I, nine years ago,
reached out to someone I looked up to so much
an Australian broadcaster, her name is Ash London,
and she just so happens to be working on the edge
at the moment, filling it for Meg's Matleaf
on the breakfast show.
And I embarrassed myself, because I
just thought she was so incredible, and I wanted
her to know she was incredible, and I
wanted to be friends.
So she was in Australia at the time.
She didn't know who you were, but you,
you tweeted at her just
kind of repeatedly. Yeah.
You did a couple tweets. Shall I read them out?
Yeah, let's read them out. Okay.
Here's the best one.
Ash, I'm Steph, a radio
plus TV host in New Zealand.
Girl, with three hours,
you were so amazing. What's your email?
Girl, again with three hours,
I can relate to everything you say.
And followed that up with,
I said girl twice.
That's awkward.
And now three times, shit.
So she's never responded.
She now works with us.
She's filling in for the breakfast show,
and she joins us on the line,
Esh London,
the one and only.
Confront your superfan and stalker Stephanie Monks
live on the radio for the first time.
No, no, no.
I'm sticking with the story
that my Twitter got hacked
and I lost access to it.
But even if I wanted to have replied,
I couldn't.
Otherwise, of course I would have been straight back, girl.
Do you want to tell her about the manager?
No.
I think you've got to tell her about the manager.
Okay, just context though is very important.
Otherwise I do seem like totally crazy.
But Ash, you did this amazing conversation, this podcast episode with Craig Bruce.
He's an Australian radio guy.
He does a radio podcast called Game Changers.
And I listened to that.
And I did.
I related to everything you said because I was going through a similar kind of identity crisis.
Who am I without radio?
Who am I without this job?
I want to go and travel and all the rest of it.
And so that's why I was just like, oh my God, she is me.
She is speaking exactly my language.
I'm going through exactly this.
So that's why I wanted to reach out.
And when the tweets didn't work,
I looked up on Google your manager at the time,
and I may have emailed them in the hopes that it would get passed on to you.
And I think she did reply.
And she was like, oh, I'll definitely pass this on to Ash.
Did you ever get a little message three?
your manager from...
The thing is, I fired that manager in between you sending the...
And then, so, if she wanted to pass it on to me, she couldn't have,
because she was no longer in my employ, babe.
So once again, I mean, unfortunately, just didn't get to me and said that I'm eternally.
Oh, no, I'm sorry.
This is so good, then.
I'm not one that looks like the dick has dead, but not you.
No, no.
Seriously, seriously, no.
You're normal.
You are great.
I am a freak.
It's insane that Ash has an excuse for.
for everything.
I was hacked
and that person was fired.
Yeah, sure.
Do you want to tell her
about the handwritten leaders?
Years later,
you, me and Shaz
did catch up in Auckland
at the Federal Deli
and we all bonded IRL.
So it came to all the persistence
paid off in the end, babe.
That's true.
And I was like so staff-struck
during that brunch.
It was very exciting.
No, out of interest,
how did Steph come across
during that brunch?
She was obviously very, very, very,
came.
Did you get the vibes
of all?
I know that you want me to like,
full the bit, say that she was a freak,
that she was a,
she was a very cool hang.
So there.
Steph was a cool,
Steph,
Minnie Munks was a cool hang.
Yep.
Don't say it like,
if you're saying it like a thing in the world,
short,
you a-ho.
But hey, everyone listening,
we are, thank you, bames.
We're real life friends now.
Guys, persistence pays off.
Persistence pays off.
Now, everyone listening,
Ash London is the most wonderful human being
and you must
tune in every morning while she's covering Meg's
Matt leave right here on the edge breakfast show
with Clinton Danes.
Look, Steph, she said she's your friend.
I know. I just want to make sure everyone out
their nose that we've got a legion on our hands
right now. So, um, so Asia
your sweet, heart. Okay,
well, I'm embarrassed.
I'm going to go now. Don't be embarrassed. We're all
friends now. It all came good in the air.
Just fine.
Okay, cool. All right. See you, Misty.
Bye, guys. Bye, Jesse.
There we go. There we go.
Put the very end there.
Ashley.
Yeah.
Oh, that made me feel uncomfortable.
Should I ever say I love you?
No, stop. Stop it.
You've done enough.
Your avos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
And one flat is going to R&B. One is not.
The Edge R&V. Flat Wars.
Flat Wars is back.
We started with four flats.
One will be going to see Kid Cardi Wilkinson,
Good Neighbors and all the rest live.
In the Vines, this New Year's in Gisbon.
They've been given challenges every day to do.
One flat's been eliminated daily, and we have made it
the final two.
We have meat on May
a Hamilton all-girls flat
and the chicken coop
a flat in Dunnors.
So up for grabs
is such an epic prize. Tickets
for all of the members of the flat to Rhythm
and Vines to celebrate New Year's at the end of the year.
This challenge
was a tricky one.
It involved coming up
with a chant about
R&V in The Edge and to do
this chant in a public
place somewhere. The bigger, the more public,
the more outrageous, the better.
So let's talk to
Minnie in Hamilton
from that on the way first. Now,
let's hear a snippet of
your chant, you girls. You did a great job.
You went around Hamilton. One of you ended up
doing backstroke in the Waikato River?
That was crazy.
Yeah.
So this is them kind of going around a roundabout.
I actually don't know what they're saying.
What are you saying?
What are you saying?
Well, oh, we're saying
May Street, it's a bit of a
take off the Camp Rock
War Cry. Oh, yes, trust me. I got the
Camp Rock to reference. I love that.
I just couldn't quite understand what you were saying.
I didn't get the reference.
We were saying May Street. May Street.
Yeah, they usually go. Camp Rock.
This is where it got intense.
Camp Rock.
We're on the food and happiness soon.
Do you go to my little
these moves.
Oh, there was some times.
Trash to.
Caj to.
But there were some times we're in public
In the very public places, Minnie,
I noticed he goes dropped your volume and enthusiasm significantly.
You're like, yeah, let's do this, we're in a public place.
Hey, but points up, because I feel like, again, here's a question,
we wearing masks of our faces?
Yes, we were.
Terrifying, but to go to the...
And Wilkinson.
And Kim Cutty.
Oh, cool.
And Kit Cutty.
Ooh.
Oh, who was...
Okay, we're going to ask.
Okay, yeah, fair enough.
All right, Minnie.
Thank you for representing meat on May flat.
Our other flat in the finals is Chicken Coop, represented by Zoe right now.
Now, Zoe, we're going to hear a little bit of your chant you guys did all around Dunners right now.
So this is swapping between different places, malls, airport.
The airport, Zoe. Was that quite embarrassing?
Hundreds of people.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, that was like humiliating, you know.
You guys, it's a decent chat
And it's loud
And you've all got signs
It looks, it was a great performance
It's clear
Very clear
Very clear
You got the airport ladies in there too
Yeah, hell yeah
Gosh, it was hectic
It's a big prize
It's a big prize
Tough
This is a very tough decision
Because both fights are done so amazing
To this point
The other challenges
You're here in the finals
Because you did amazing
At the other challenges
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
But this final one
this is tough.
We have a winner.
We have a winner though.
The winning flat
and the flat who are winning tickets
for the entire flat,
every single we were in there
to go on R&V 2025.
The Chicken Coos!
You absolutely crush the challenges this week.
Oh, thank you so much.
Very well done to Minnie and the girls
from Meet on May. It was a tough contest.
Yeah, your girls did amazing.
Trust me, you guys are amazing. So thank you for taking part.
Yeah, thanks girls from Meet on May.
Thank you.
Oh, so sorry about that.
Different tones of voice there, isn't it?
Yeah, quite different.
But tickets are on sound now to R&B
is going to be the greatest way to bring in the new year.
Details, the edge.rovert.
com, but a massive congrats to ChickenCoop
for being this year's Flat Wars.
Yeah!
See your front left.
Your Arvo's Head Harder
with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
I hope you enjoyed the podcast.
This is the outro.
This is not, this never made it onto radio.
This is just recording it just for you.
Just for you.
So, Sean, tell us about it.
Last night's big comedy shows.
It was your first one in quite a while, wasn't it?
Yeah, and because we thought you were giving up stand-up comedy for a bit.
Oh, yeah, to do the DJ.
I'm over it, I'm taking a break from it.
And you're back on pretty quick, man.
Oh, so what I meant by that was I was not taking a break from it.
I was dialing it back.
Because last year I did a show probably every week or twice a week for the year.
And I'm just dialing it back a little bit so I can mix more DJing in there because I miss DJing.
So I'm still doing a stand-up.
It's kind of crazy.
I said it's dialing back.
I'm still going to do a stand-up show like once, twice a month.
For the year.
But that's dialing it back.
That's dialing it back for me.
True.
From what it was, which was every week.
So yeah, dialing it back.
Still writing jokes, still trying to,
but not writing as many jokes.
I would try and write like every other day.
And now I'm like writing once every other week.
Just stripping it back because I enjoy it.
I was starting to not enjoy it.
Anyway, so yeah, I did a show last night with Corey Gonzalez,
who's the guy from what we do in the shadows.
And a few other New Zealand comics.
And it was, he wouldn't mind me saying this because he's a good friend of
but a friend of mine from Tollinga showed up to the show
and I caught up with him before
now the thing about this friend once again
he wouldn't mind me saying this he wouldn't want to talk about on the show
he's like quite it's quite sad but he's like quite terminally ill
my friend quite sick
and I hadn't had a chance to catch up with him about it
so it was really good to see him
but I talked to him for like 45 minutes
right before my comedy show and he even made a joke out of it
because he was like we hadn't caught up so he was like telling me
everything does he look terminally ill
nah no he's got a scar
He's got a scar on his head for me.
They've, like, removed it's okay.
But he doesn't look to him in the ill.
But he was, like, talking, and even realize he's like,
bro, if you've got to go and, like, get in his,
I'm sorry, this is not putting you in a good headspace to do comedy.
And I was like, no, dude, it's fine.
Like, I like distracting myself before I do it.
So, yeah, I talked to my mate who, it was, like, a real dark chat for, like, 45 minutes.
And then I was first up.
So I, like, got up there.
And then somehow I did quite well.
I think maybe it was the juxtaposition of it,
or because he's this guy, this is why he wouldn't mind me saying it.
he's always got had a real dark sense of humor
so he's joking about himself a lot
like he's terminally always like making jokes about it
and I'm like this is awkward
because I'm not going to make a joke about it
but then going straight up and doing comedy it was quite a funny
headspace right so I thought you're going to say
he was too really ill he looked too many ill
and then in the audience
like everyone picked on him
I thought that's what you're going to say
and I was like fuck that's awful
the worst place to go is to a stand-up night
if you're terminally ill I'd say
yeah well he's as I see he's got a dark sense of humour
is people joking about, like, dying and stuff.
He was laughing at it.
He thought it was quite funny.
And he did get heckled, like, he heckled once and then got, like,
roasted by the comic, but he loves it.
He's like, he's like, kind of go.
That was a funny experience.
I was like, this is crazy.
What was your joke that hit the most last night?
Can you tell us?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What was the joke that hit the most?
Actually, that one that, you told me to try it.
I'd never try it before a joke I had about Christchurch.
Oh, yeah, Land on the Long White Man.
Yeah, so I was like, talking about DJing and stuff,
and I went to them there.
I was like, I just got back from Christ Church,
which, um,
otatahi in the mother tongue
which as we all know stands for land of the long
white person
until I was like fuck it's white down there I always thought
because growing up in Tauranga my only like pop
cultural reference of Christchurch was scribe going
North Cana Burrhy! I was like that must be the hood
it is not
so that was like the joke and everyone laughed because it was like
I like a joke that I gave him
yeah okay guys not a competition
wait you didn't give it to me
joke that I wrote for him
he didn't write of me I told it to you
I said it to Harrison and her
you should do that on stage
I did say. You said it and I was like
there's the funny show you've ever told me.
And it's not honest. And it was. And it's the funny
and it got the biggest laugh. It's a great joke.
Got a good laugh. There was also another thing.
I like referencing things that happen in the moment,
like at the top of the gig because it lets
people know you're in the room with them.
So Corey was up before me and he's like South American
but he looks quite Māori.
So like he was talking to this Māori guy
and the Māori guy was like heckling him like something about a Mariah thing.
And Corey was like joking with him.
Oh, I'm not Māori. I know I look Māori,
but I don't actually get that reference.
I'm not and everyone kind of laughed and then he got off.
So the first thing I said was like that I'm just learning right now that Corey's not
Māori.
Like I knew he's not but I was like and then I made some jokes.
I was like he is the most ethnically ambiguous looking dude I've ever met in my life.
If me and Corey were having a conversation and he just casually slipped the N word in there,
I probably wouldn't correct him.
I don't know, maybe he can say it.
That was a joke.
That kind of got a bit of a laugh at the time.
Nice.
So when I went to a comedy show that, it's kind of what I was most impressed at
because Sean did this like full hour in the comedy, international comedy fest a few months ago.
and he like talks to the people in the room
and ask what the occupation is
and I was so blown away by like
someone said the most randomest thing
and you were really good at like on the spot
coming up with a gag
what was that person's job
do you remember?
Yeah I remember
you came for a good night
it's a funny thing is Harrison you came in the last night
Harrison came in the first night
Harrison experienced none of that
because the first night I was so nervous
I didn't do any crowd work
and I pushed through my hour of material
in like 50 minutes
so Harrison did not get that experience
of my show.
But that was a point to happen.
I love that, but.
There was one night where that went on for like 12 minutes.
There was some lady who worked on the ferry
and a guy who just jumped off the ferry that day.
And it was like, there was a whole thing about it.
And it was like the funniest bit.
But you can't recapture that because it's not.
But thanks for asking.
That's not funny.
But he's lived.
He lived.
So you can laugh.
Yeah.
Why did you message us?
So last night, what time was it?
Oh, yeah.
I did message because I was going to message my mum.
It was at 10 to 11 p.
I'm still up because I'm fucking insane.
And, um, Sean, hope your week's going well.
And I'm thinking, I fucking just saw you two hours ago, freak.
And I go, and he goes, although no, when I read this, I was like, I thought it was sarcasm.
I was like, because the message goes, had a name of a man here that I'm about to explain, come to my comedy show tonight.
So I thought the first bit was like, hope your week's going well, because I just had this guy show up.
That's exactly what I read it is.
Oh, you think so, yeah.
100%.
I was like, who's this guy?
What the fuck is that guy?
I do.
I should Google it.
He's an Italian footballer.
His name is,
hope your week's going well,
had Marco Vianello
come to my comedy show tonight.
Well, that's actually my terminally all friend.
Oh.
He was okay.
He wouldn't mind me saying his name.
Oh.
He's a famous footballer.
Oh.
Yeah, no, no.
An Italian footballer?
No.
Different guy.
Just has the same name.
Oh.
Because I was like...
I might be such a fucking weird situation.
Oh.
Because even now I'm still like...
Because I was still like...
Come into his podcast.
I'm like,
to us because how did you get your mother's name mixed up with Katie, Steph, Harrison and Sean?
Is Katie in that?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was the randomest group chat from like Safe House.
Months ago.
Well, the thing is the guy has, that shows how often I've messaged my mum.
That's terrible.
Because I was just going back on old messages and it was the most, it was like right next to my mum's one.
Really?
That was fuck it.
That was at the start of the year, mate.
That's so bad.
Do you text her?
Yeah, I texted.
Oh, thank God.
When did we last with that group chat?
No, that was this week.
It was this week.
It was in this week group chat.
It wouldn't have been that reference.
It wasn't.
You guys have a phone.
Like a month ago?
Oh, I have a lot.
What was it?
It was a week ago.
We're away somewhere.
No.
It was this week.
It was.
It was we had a double pass to giveaway for an electric have.
Oh, okay.
Oh, you're lucky.
Because it was like, fuck.
And then, so that was the confusion as I was like, oh, mom knows this guy.
Mom knows he's six.
I was like, he was at the show tonight.
And then I sent him to mom.
And I said to my mom respond the next day.
You guys are messaging me.
I was like, fuck.
I didn't send anything to cringe.
I was like, I'm like, Googling this Italian football.
I'm like, an Italian football.

I presume they're at a park.
Are your parents coming back?
Are they in Auckland again?
I'm fine nights in my morning.
Oh, you're going to Hawks Bay?
Going to Hawks Bay next three weekends.
Ah.
You've mentioned that a few times.
Why are you going down there three weekends in a row?
There's events every weekend.
There's like a recital, getting a tattoo with something else.
What's a recital?
A dance recital.
Oh, that you're in?
My niece.
Oh, your niece is that.
Why am I?
Imagine if I was in a dance recital.
I secretly been rehearsing behind your guys' backs.
How long does it take to get down there?
I'm flying all these trips.
Oh, that's a lot of money.
Oh my God, you're the best uncle in the world.
You're going to your niece's dance recital.
Yeah, well, it is a lot of money,
but I've had this account saved up in my bank account
for a holiday this year,
and I can't, I'm not allowed to go on holiday
after the rest of the year.
So I was like, fuck it, that's a holiday.
So that's, because mum's like, God, there's so much money.
I'm like, yeah, it was for my, hopefully go overseas,
but it's going to go.
That'll mean so much to,
to her and your family.
That's so nice.
Yeah, I've been home
and I've been too busy
to ever go home.
So I've been home
at all this year.
So it'll be good.
And the Women's Day shirt
would be really cute.
I'm excited with mum and dad.
Are they coming down to Hawksbay for it
or they have someone there
that they're going to...
They live in Hawksbeau.
Oh, okay.
I don't know.
They gather people from Hawks Bay.
They're freelancers.
Oh, that's so cool.
So wait, recital one week,
Women's Day one week
and tattoo the other week.
Yes, and I may also
on Monday,
I may have a different hair color.
that's all I'll say about that.
No, you can't be ginger and diet here.
And I may finally have eyebrows.
That's all I'll say about that.
What's your mum doing to you?
I can't say.
I don't know what that could be,
but you've made it sound gross.
No, but I feel like it's like your mum's like,
Harrison, I'm going to give you eyebrows
and she's going to like, she's going to get that dye.
Like I use that dye from chemist warehouse.
It's kind of faded now.
But it's called Just for Men, which is not.
It's not just for men because I use it.
And you can dye your eyebrows.
Maybe your mum's like, oh, I found this you thing.
You take your glasses off?
Do you know what I'm?
You always have your glasses.
They're very blonde.
Very blonde eyebrows.
A lot more blonde than the rest of your hair.
Because your mustache is very ginger.
Yeah.
So I may have a bit of a hair color.
Wow.
I'll tell you on Monday.
What color?
I can't tell you.
I'll see what happens.
Corrections.
I think he's going bleached blonde.
Nah.
A different color.
Because if you got bleached blonde and your ginger, I think that works.
Could be something.
Could be for a job.
No, but he said that he's going to get eyebrows.
Yeah.
So I'm going to hear eyebrows and the colour of my hair is going to change.
And then you go like a brown eyebrow with a bleakened here.
It's going to be a, what's the chips brand?
Bluebird, add.
And you're going to go blue here.
Yeah, sure.
Harrison's a wacky dude.
I don't think he's going to go full blue here.
Fuck up quite a lot of my career.
I reckon if I go full blue.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's like normal.
I'll fuck up your careers if you went full blue, I reckon.
So no, it's not full blue.
Okay.
