Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:17 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.
Starting point is 00:00:33 Enjoy. Your Avos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Yay! Yeah! Yeah! Happy Friday, New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:00:49 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!
Starting point is 00:01:03 Did it? No, worse and worse and worse. God. It's embarrassing. Oh man. Hey, it's Friday, everybody. Yes! Hey, yeah, yes.
Starting point is 00:01:14 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.
Starting point is 00:01:25 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.
Starting point is 00:01:42 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...
Starting point is 00:02:03 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?
Starting point is 00:02:22 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.
Starting point is 00:02:36 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.
Starting point is 00:02:53 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.
Starting point is 00:03:09 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.
Starting point is 00:03:20 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.
Starting point is 00:03:33 Oh, F. F. Far out. F a fidget spinner. Nice. Fudge. Fudge. Oh, God. We're not winning.
Starting point is 00:03:44 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.
Starting point is 00:03:59 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.
Starting point is 00:04:17 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.
Starting point is 00:04:34 A car brand. A body part Foot A makeup product False slashes A boy's name Bread Something you'd see outside
Starting point is 00:04:47 Fox Fox A type of bread Pachasia Something round Bipple Out of 10 How does it feel team
Starting point is 00:05:17 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
Starting point is 00:05:33 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
Starting point is 00:05:50 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
Starting point is 00:06:03 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.
Starting point is 00:06:15 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.
Starting point is 00:06:33 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
Starting point is 00:06:51 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?
Starting point is 00:07:07 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.
Starting point is 00:07:23 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
Starting point is 00:07:36 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
Starting point is 00:07:43 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
Starting point is 00:07:53 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
Starting point is 00:08:01 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.
Starting point is 00:08:17 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.
Starting point is 00:08:29 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.
Starting point is 00:09:02 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.
Starting point is 00:09:24 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.
Starting point is 00:09:49 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.
Starting point is 00:10:02 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.
Starting point is 00:10:18 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,
Starting point is 00:10:38 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.
Starting point is 00:10:49 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.
Starting point is 00:10:59 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.
Starting point is 00:11:13 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.
Starting point is 00:11:28 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
Starting point is 00:11:39 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
Starting point is 00:11:52 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.
Starting point is 00:12:03 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.
Starting point is 00:12:21 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
Starting point is 00:12:31 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
Starting point is 00:12:41 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
Starting point is 00:12:51 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.
Starting point is 00:13:00 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?
Starting point is 00:13:11 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.
Starting point is 00:13:22 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.
Starting point is 00:13:31 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.
Starting point is 00:13:46 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.
Starting point is 00:14:00 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.
Starting point is 00:14:10 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.
Starting point is 00:14:21 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.
Starting point is 00:14:32 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.
Starting point is 00:14:47 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.
Starting point is 00:15:00 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?
Starting point is 00:15:18 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,
Starting point is 00:15:42 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.
Starting point is 00:16:11 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.
Starting point is 00:16:25 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
Starting point is 00:16:35 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
Starting point is 00:16:52 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?
Starting point is 00:17:08 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.
Starting point is 00:17:29 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,
Starting point is 00:17:45 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.
Starting point is 00:17:58 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?
Starting point is 00:18:10 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...
Starting point is 00:18:25 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.
Starting point is 00:18:39 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.
Starting point is 00:18:53 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?
Starting point is 00:19:07 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.
Starting point is 00:19:23 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.
Starting point is 00:19:39 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.
Starting point is 00:19:51 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.
Starting point is 00:20:06 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.
Starting point is 00:20:24 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.
Starting point is 00:20:40 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.
Starting point is 00:20:54 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?
Starting point is 00:21:07 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.
Starting point is 00:21:33 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.
Starting point is 00:21:53 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.
Starting point is 00:22:08 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
Starting point is 00:22:23 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,
Starting point is 00:22:37 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,
Starting point is 00:22:51 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?
Starting point is 00:23:02 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?
Starting point is 00:23:10 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
Starting point is 00:23:22 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
Starting point is 00:23:39 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?
Starting point is 00:23:51 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.
Starting point is 00:24:01 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.
Starting point is 00:24:15 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?
Starting point is 00:24:32 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.
Starting point is 00:24:51 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.
Starting point is 00:25:17 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.
Starting point is 00:25:33 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!
Starting point is 00:25:47 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.
Starting point is 00:26:04 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,
Starting point is 00:26:24 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.
Starting point is 00:26:42 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.
Starting point is 00:26:51 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.
Starting point is 00:27:05 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.
Starting point is 00:27:13 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?
Starting point is 00:27:30 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.
Starting point is 00:27:45 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.
Starting point is 00:28:11 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.
Starting point is 00:28:25 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.
Starting point is 00:28:36 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
Starting point is 00:28:52 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
Starting point is 00:29:06 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
Starting point is 00:29:19 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
Starting point is 00:29:37 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.
Starting point is 00:29:56 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.
Starting point is 00:30:12 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.
Starting point is 00:30:29 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.
Starting point is 00:30:46 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?
Starting point is 00:31:06 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?
Starting point is 00:31:19 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.
Starting point is 00:31:30 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?
Starting point is 00:31:41 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.
Starting point is 00:31:51 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.
Starting point is 00:32:06 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.
Starting point is 00:32:21 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.
Starting point is 00:32:33 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.
Starting point is 00:32:40 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.
Starting point is 00:32:57 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.
Starting point is 00:33:11 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.
Starting point is 00:33:27 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.
Starting point is 00:33:40 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.
Starting point is 00:34:00 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.
Starting point is 00:34:16 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?
Starting point is 00:34:38 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?
Starting point is 00:34:49 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.
Starting point is 00:35:00 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.
Starting point is 00:35:21 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.
Starting point is 00:35:48 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.
Starting point is 00:35:58 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?
Starting point is 00:36:13 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.
Starting point is 00:36:30 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.
Starting point is 00:36:51 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.
Starting point is 00:37:09 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.
Starting point is 00:37:28 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
Starting point is 00:37:54 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.
Starting point is 00:38:09 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,
Starting point is 00:38:27 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.
Starting point is 00:38:42 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.
Starting point is 00:38:55 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
Starting point is 00:39:14 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
Starting point is 00:39:22 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
Starting point is 00:39:31 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.
Starting point is 00:39:49 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.
Starting point is 00:40:01 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
Starting point is 00:40:15 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.
Starting point is 00:40:28 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.
Starting point is 00:40:40 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.
Starting point is 00:40:56 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.
Starting point is 00:41:06 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.
Starting point is 00:41:27 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.
Starting point is 00:41:59 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.
Starting point is 00:42:20 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.
Starting point is 00:42:40 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.
Starting point is 00:42:59 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,
Starting point is 00:43:16 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.
Starting point is 00:43:31 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.
Starting point is 00:43:44 GRL. No. I. Girl! You are so amazing. What's your email? And again, Girl.
Starting point is 00:43:52 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.
Starting point is 00:44:06 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.
Starting point is 00:44:16 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
Starting point is 00:44:33 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
Starting point is 00:44:46 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
Starting point is 00:44:56 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.
Starting point is 00:45:20 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.
Starting point is 00:45:35 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,
Starting point is 00:45:51 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...
Starting point is 00:46:06 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.
Starting point is 00:46:17 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
Starting point is 00:46:35 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
Starting point is 00:46:53 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?
Starting point is 00:47:07 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.
Starting point is 00:47:24 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,
Starting point is 00:47:35 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.
Starting point is 00:47:50 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.
Starting point is 00:48:06 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?
Starting point is 00:48:25 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.
Starting point is 00:48:50 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.
Starting point is 00:49:14 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.
Starting point is 00:49:25 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,
Starting point is 00:49:35 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
Starting point is 00:49:47 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
Starting point is 00:49:56 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,
Starting point is 00:50:07 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.
Starting point is 00:50:18 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
Starting point is 00:50:30 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
Starting point is 00:50:44 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.
Starting point is 00:50:56 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.
Starting point is 00:51:12 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.
Starting point is 00:51:29 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.
Starting point is 00:51:45 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.
Starting point is 00:52:01 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.
Starting point is 00:52:17 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
Starting point is 00:52:36 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.
Starting point is 00:52:51 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,
Starting point is 00:53:02 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.
Starting point is 00:53:22 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.
Starting point is 00:53:31 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
Starting point is 00:54:08 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
Starting point is 00:54:18 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
Starting point is 00:54:28 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.
Starting point is 00:54:37 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.
Starting point is 00:55:08 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.
Starting point is 00:55:23 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!
Starting point is 00:55:38 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.
Starting point is 00:55:49 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.
Starting point is 00:56:08 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.
Starting point is 00:56:26 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.
Starting point is 00:56:33 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
Starting point is 00:56:53 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
Starting point is 00:57:10 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.
Starting point is 00:57:26 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.
Starting point is 00:57:44 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
Starting point is 00:57:59 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
Starting point is 00:58:14 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.
Starting point is 00:58:28 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.
Starting point is 00:58:41 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
Starting point is 00:58:53 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
Starting point is 00:59:11 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
Starting point is 00:59:24 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
Starting point is 00:59:40 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.
Starting point is 00:59:56 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
Starting point is 01:00:12 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
Starting point is 01:00:33 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
Starting point is 01:00:43 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
Starting point is 01:00:54 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.
Starting point is 01:01:04 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.
Starting point is 01:01:20 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%.
Starting point is 01:01:43 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
Starting point is 01:01:52 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.
Starting point is 01:02:02 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.
Starting point is 01:02:12 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.
Starting point is 01:02:23 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.
Starting point is 01:02:38 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.
Starting point is 01:02:45 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.
Starting point is 01:02:52 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.
Starting point is 01:03:03 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.

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
