This is a podcast from Rover.
Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Kiora, welcome to the podcast.
Some big moments today.
We talked about what are the chances when people lose something in the most unlikely way possible.
Yeah, yes.
Listen out for the story with the fishing rod.
It honestly have your jaws on the floor.
Also today in the potty, spoiler alert.
We do talk a lot in one particular moment in the podcast.
about the plot line to the summer I turned pretty.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
In fact, Sean had to leave the room for that bit.
But what advice would we give the main character
who's in the brother love triangle?
Bally, the female.
Oh, yeah.
I would never, I just forgot that completely.
There's a lot.
As a lot, content overload very quick to Steph.
Yeah.
And also, I teach Steph.
Steph, nice to meet you.
Steff.
Yeah, pH.
I think it's Steph, actually.
Well, you might be right, actually.
I'll just double check with my mum later.
I teach Steph how to be a better.
Mother. Maza.
Mazza.
Steve.
Steve.
I do...
Try from the top.
I teach death how to be a better mother.
Martha.
Mother.
Your Ravos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Happy Tuesday, New Zealand.
Love Tuesday.
Yeah, you know, you're one of the only people who does.
No, I love that.
It's you two don't like Tuesdays.
I think Tuesdays are worse than Mondays, personally.
Monday's are horrible.
Mondays, it's all very exciting seeing everyone catching up after the weekend.
And then Tuesday, it's like, oh, God.
Really?
Yeah.
It's like, for me, it's like, have we made it through Monday?
Look at us now.
We're already at Tuesday.
Look at us now.
I hate Fridays.
Truly, I hate Fridays.
Really?
Yeah.
Because I love my job so much.
I never want to leave it.
True.
And we can all take a little bit of that, couldn't we?
Yeah.
Just wake up with a passion for a Tuesday.
And that's what we're feeling this afternoon.
Wake up and first.
That's what I said last week, last Friday.
Yeah, fist bump.
Wake up and fist.
Fist the sky.
Air punch.
Air punch.
Yeah, air punch.
Yeah, it's good.
Hey, your chance to want a thousand bucks to start the show today with easy money.
Steph's struggling to get her child to focus.
Yeah, I'm going to need your help parents listening out there.
How do the heck do you read a story to a baby who won't pay attention?
Harrison, I might lean on you a bit as well.
Oh, I feel like I'm a pretty good storyteller and reader.
Yeah.
I'm an acting and all that.
Exactly.
You're an actor.
Yeah.
So that's coming up.
Also, I lost something in one of those situations.
You're like, what are the chances that that happened?
I lost something down like a grate, like a little hole.
It bounced like two meters away from me and fell down there.
Yeah, that was terrible luck.
It cost me 400 bucks.
So we'll talk about that.
Your Avos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
The Edge.
Easy money is the game.
All thanks to B&Z.
They've given us $1,000, which is up for grabs.
If you'd like to play, I 800 to the Edge, we'll give you a letter.
between E and Z.
You'll have 30 seconds, 10 questions.
Answer each one with a word of that letter
and win yourself a thousand bucks.
Neve from Auckland joins us to play.
Neve, is your laptop
covered with stickers, or is it,
are you rocking a pretty clean-looking computer?
It's a work computer, so it's clean.
It's clean. It's clean.
The reason I bring that up is because Harrison's over there.
He's trying to decide where his new sticker
should go on his laptop, but it's covered in them.
Yeah, I reckon I've got,
Oh, buddy, how about 15 stickers on there?
And I've got a couple new ones.
But I don't like them overlapping Neve.
So it's a real problem for me.
So actually can have to pick one of them off.
Yeah.
That's like my daughter's laptop.
How old's your daughter?
She's 13.
Yeah, it'll stick with her.
Yeah?
It'll stay with that.
I'm 25 and it'll, you know, it'll continue.
It's a lifelong.
But it's a hard work.
It's very hard work.
It's very hard work.
You're sorry for your daughter.
30 seconds, your letter will be H.
H for Harrison's sticker addiction.
H for ham.
H for how you do it.
And within those 30 seconds, Neve, I'm going to ask you 10 questions.
You need to come up with 10 answers or beginning with 8.
You cannot repeat any answers.
If you get stuck, you can say pass and hopefully we'll have time to get back to it potentially.
And your time will begin when I finish saying the first category.
Does that all make sense?
Okay, I think so.
Let's try.
You got this.
You got this.
Believe me, you do it, Neve, you can do it.
You got this, Nate from Auckland.
With the letter H for a thousand bucks, please name for us.
A side hustle.
Home baking.
An emotion.
Hungry.
Something in the bathroom.
Homemade bath bombs.
A sandwich filling.
Ham.
An Olympic sport.
A type of cheese.
Hulumi.
Something you've.
wear on your head?
Hat.
A New Zealand town.
Hamilton.
A dog breed.
Hi.
Oh, not bad, Nees.
Some great answers in there.
Some great answers in there.
My brain is just fizzing.
Yeah, that is a lot.
Cheese is difficult.
Havati.
Is that what you said?
Hulumi.
Hulumi.
I love the homemade bath bomb for something in the bathroom.
Very clever.
Yeah, what did you say?
Emotion.
Is it hungry in emotion?
Oh, it is when I'm hungry.
Hangary.
It's a hungry.
It's not.
It's not.
It's an emotion in our household.
Yeah, there we go.
Hangar, I feel.
You got seven.
The only one you passed was an Olympic sport.
You could have said high jump or hockey.
Well, I can think it was like, well, I did think of handball, but I didn't know if that was.
I think it is.
Handball is.
It's just not played in Ontario, but I'm pretty sure overseas.
Neve, you could have said that.
Oh, that was a good go, though.
Yeah, it was a great going, Neve.
Well done.
Yeah, well done.
Great job, Neve.
And $100 coming your way, or thanks to BNZ.
They can help you master money so you can start acing whatever you are doing from day one.
So 100 bucks for your Neve.
Oh, thank you.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Everyone listening, I need some help.
I have a almost year and a half year old boy at home.
And after the show finishes here at 7pm, I kind of rush home and I get to put him into bed.
But before we do the bottle and brushing the teeth and stuff, I love to read him a story.
However, he's a busy wee boy, and it's very, very hard to make him sit down and listen
to the full story
or even just a bit of the story
and I'm beginning to think
potentially it's my performance
probably
it could be book choice
because I know you've been going on
about the handmade
you're not reading that to my mind
which I just got the sequel today everybody
oh my God be very excited for me tonight
but no
it's important that you're not reading that
to your one and a half year old
it's not that good I just read it
oh no Harrison
the second one
yeah it's not as good as the first
I thought it was alright
It's all right.
It's just not as good.
Yeah, that's true.
That's okay.
You'll find out soon.
Page one.
Anyway.
Should have told you before you bought it.
It's not that I'm reading to my year and a half year old.
It's not the housemaid.
It's a book by Alison Brown.
It's called Mighty Moo.
And it's one of those things at the library was just like getting rid of
maybe some of their old stock or whatever.
Alison Brown, is that quite a classic?
No, I've never heard of it before, to be honest.
Mighty Mooh is the name of it.
Got it for free, brilliant.
Obsessed with it.
Loves it.
But he.
can't stand it when I'm reading it to him. I think
he just gets bored
he just likes holding it and doesn't
actually want to listen to the story. He just wants to hold it himself.
Okay. They don't sound like a you. It sounds like a you thing.
It does. Yeah. So I'm thinking it could be my performance. So Harrison,
I've sent you a bit of it. Yeah, awesome.
So you're the actor.
Yeah, yeah. Maybe you can give me some pointers. And parents listening.
You can help me figure out where I'm going on. Are you open
for this? Yeah. You can send to these notes?
Yeah. Just don't be brutal.
I won't be brutal, but I will, you know, we want your kid to love you reading,
so we are going to have to do a bit of work, I feel.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's workshop it.
Okay.
Okay, so the premise of the book is this character called Moe, trying to figure out
what he wants to do with his life, basically.
He wants to be amazing, so he's trying all these different things.
And maybe the scene will pick it up in is he's seen his friend making ice creams.
And he's like, oh, I could do that, I could make ice creams.
Is Moa cow?
No.
He's just an animal of some kind.
I don't know, actually.
He's an animal.
Yeah.
Well, it's important.
I think you've got a know to get into the head of the character.
you probably have to know what animal.
That's a good point.
I'm not sure.
Oh, I don't know.
Just pretend he's a raccoon or something.
I think he's a rodent.
Yeah.
See, I think your first was like,
I'm picturing cow already,
so I think that's where you've already gone wrong.
Oh, no.
I think it's like a skunk or a raccoon or something.
Okay, actually, just read it and we'll interpret what it is,
because that's imagination.
Okay, no, he's definitely a raccoon.
I've just, I've just looked at a picture.
Okay, that changes everything for the camera.
Maybe it's a badger.
Anyway, so, okay, so the scene I'll pick it up.
He's trying his best at ice cream, and he goes,
I know
I'll be
Marvelous Moe
King of Sprinkles
Triple Whippy coming up
And then another character goes
Oh no Moad
Not so hard
Because he's pulling on the ice cream lever
Splat
Hmm
Maybe I should try something else
And that's the end of that page
The poor boy
Oh it's not that bad
It's not that bad
Every night you read this
I thought it was pretty good
Hey please
Thank you Sean
Okay
Well God what one
I pick. I'm riddled with notes now.
Okay. This is what I do.
This is classic kids. I love this kind of voice
when you read.
Oh no. I'll be marvelous moe.
King of the Sprinkles.
Tripopee coming up.
Because they love British characters.
Okay, again, it's kind of wind-down time at bedtime.
At night, so it's kind of, we just want a soothing story.
Can you just...
Can you try it and you see how it feels in your mouth?
You want me to try the yelling with the accent.
It's just British accent, really.
Oh no.
I'll be more.
The Movelessmore, King of DeSprinkles.
How is that?
That's awful.
Okay, we'll pivot.
I think a bit of a bit of slam, making of it edgy.
You know?
Slam poetry, change him up.
Obie!
Mo Marvelous Sprinkle!
Tipsy ice cream to be coming up.
Not so hard.
Not so hard.
So kind of slam poetry a little bit.
Because you want him to be a creative kid.
What's another idea?
This is how my dad read to me growing up so I can relate to this.
I'll be able as Mo.
King of Sprinkles.
Triple whoopee coming up.
Are you making it sexy?
Oh no, Mo.
That's your sexy voice.
Not so hard.
That is a sexy voice.
Splat.
I don't.
I think we're going to wrap this up.
Maybe I should try something else.
Vanessa's saying on 3, 3, 4, 3, the book's just too old for him.
Okay.
It sounds like a bit of a mature novel.
Sip back to it, it's probably the book's problem.
Let us know how you get on.
If you want Harrison to come over and do the cockney voice,
I'm happy for it.
Or the last one.
Can you just not say splat in that voice ever again?
Okay, cool, cool.
Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
We had a brand new person who started in the office yesterday.
Her name is Emma, and now what you might not know is usually all new hires are kind of run by us, right?
They run past us before anyone gets welcomed on to the Edge team.
Yeah, it didn't happen in this case.
So we kind of interviewed you, Emma.
She joins us now in studio.
How do you think we went as your interview were yesterday on the show?
I think you guys had a great job.
Correct answer.
Thank you.
It did end with this moment here.
The big reason we actually did want to get you in here, Emma, is your name.
What's wrong with my name?
This is awkward.
This is kind of in the radio.
They do this a lot with shows and people.
If there's two people with the same name, someone has to change.
Yeah.
And we've got another person in the office called Emma.
We do.
And she was here before you.
so actually now falls on you to change the name.
And guys, I was just out in the office before
and I said Emma and they both looked.
So, I mean, we're running into a big problem here
just with sufficiency and just to really get this clog of the machine,
clogging.
So we threw some names out here.
Cogging?
Cogging?
Not clogging.
Cogging.
Cheers.
So we threw some names at you and lots of people texting.
A lot of creative names.
And we had a top three.
So this is the top three that have come through.
Bush Rucker,
sharp knife,
and Lankery.
So those are the top three names that have come through,
and we just don't feel that it's super appropriate some of those.
Just so I don't feel it.
Even just now, you're not really connecting with those names.
No, no, I don't feel it.
So we've pivoted, and we still want to keep your beautiful name, Emma.
Right.
In a sense.
Cool.
So we've come up with different versions of Emma.
Obviously, it can't be Emma,
for obvious reasons.
Two people look at your support.
Listener Kylie, I'm long-time listener of the show.
Welcome, Kylie.
Hello.
Don't worry, you're in good hands.
Kylie, very short, Sean.
She'll be deciding your fate here a little bit.
So I'm going to pitch all these new Emma names,
and then Kylie will decide which one you get called from now on, okay?
Perfect, perfect.
No pressure, Kylie.
Right.
So we've kept the M in there.
So the first one we've gone is Embargoed.
Oh, okay.
You know, we're working in the corporate office.
I thought that's a saying that comes up a lot.
The golden M.
Now that's because you're golden, but also it's a bit of a Maccas reference.
We love Macas.
MP3.
Oh, see.
I like that one.
That one's cool.
I love the radio station music.
MD.
Yeah.
Like Maccas again, MD, Mickey D's.
Okay.
The thing will get mixed up a bit there, yeah, yeah.
The embassy.
And Emco Beauty.
And those are just a few ideas of things that I thought.
So it keeps M.
Oh, it's M.
Oh, which M?
Mco Beauty.
You know?
So any kind of singing out to you, Emma from the office?
MP3 could be quite nice.
You like that one?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think Mco Beauty is also great because you are very beautiful.
Oh, thank you.
Beauty.
MCo Beauty.
It's a beauty brand.
It all makes sense.
But it's not up to us.
It's up to you.
Kylie,
what are you leaning towards?
Or do you have any questions about any of them?
Well,
I actually quite liked the reaction everybody gave to MP3.
What was the one after MP3?
MD.
MD.
Yeah.
Could be confusing that one.
It might just got to be MP3.
Please welcome.
to the Edge today. MP3.
I'm going to meet you, MP3. Love it.
Thanks guys.
You're going to sound like a Star Wars droid.
Wow.
It's got a lot of impact.
Your Ivo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Is today the day I get another?
The Edge 5 star fact.
This is where I give a fact to the team of judges, Harrison, Steph and yourself.
And you rate it out of 5 stars based on our categories.
All right.
So Charlotte from Christchurch,
She'll be our guest judge today.
In terms of a fact, Charlotte, what are you looking for?
Oh, a fact on something mysterious.
Okay.
Oh, mysterious facts.
I love that.
Which is right because facts are quite to the point.
But to have a fact that's a mystery, it's almost not a fact and I like it.
Yeah, it's outside the box.
Interesting.
Yeah, I love that.
After the box.
I'm trying to work around children in grocery, sorry.
Oh, that's okay.
It's okay.
Get some votes out of your kids.
well.
See what they think.
Today's...
I'm speaking of them.
Oh, great.
It's a very child-friendly fact today, Charlotte.
So a good one for the kids.
Today's five-star fact is...
The mere of a small Minnesota town is a dog.
The dog's called Calisi.
The town is called Cormorant and the population's less than 1,500 people.
Basically, what happened, the story is that this YouTube...
YouTuber was running to be mere of the town as a YouTube stunt.
He had 3 million followers.
and some of the members of the town were like,
oh, we don't want this, we don't want this.
So a guy was like, Stuff, I'm going to put my dog in the running.
His dog, Colese.
And his dog Colese won with a landslide.
76% of the vote.
So a dog is now the mayor of the town.
Now, he doesn't actually have to do anything,
but he does get wheeled out on occasion to make appearances at parades
and fundraising events.
People can get photos of the dog.
Why is he wheeled out?
Oh, that's just an expression.
The dog does have functioning lives.
So does he still breathing?
Dog's fine.
He's okay.
Dog's okay.
Not taxidermy.
No, not taxidermy dog.
Sean, can you just add a bit of mystery to the end of the fact?
Yeah, yeah.
Just to, you know, Charlotte's looking for a mysterious fact way.
Okay, help.
Does it help you?
But, is it a dog?
Or is it?
Or is it?
In fact, a Yeti.
It's in Minnesota.
There's a lot of snow.
I don't know.
Okay.
I don't know.
A giant dog.
Yeah.
Or is it?
Okay, okay, okay.
Okay, interesting fact
For me it was great storytelling from you Sean
It really put me there
I could see the dog
I could almost feel the dog
I could, you know, it was interesting
You could smell the dog
Taste the dog
I didn't want to say taste
I did come to my brain
I didn't want to say that
Harris what's your first instinct there
I really liked it
It was fun
I like that the mayor's a dog
I feel the only thing that's pulling me up
Because it's probably quite a negative town
Because they're going like, oh, stuff this YouTube.
We're going to put our literal dog in to be the mayor.
Because stuff you kids.
Like they feel like an old kind of town.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Yeah, the young people have all the good ideas, you know,
going to change the world and stuff.
And I feel like putting a dog in there is going to really halter that.
Really make some conflict.
Excuse the pun.
Now, the other thing I've got a problem with is a big responsibility with meers is cutting ribbons of buildings.
I feel like that's kind of what they do.
And a dog just doesn't really have the ability.
to do that.
He's run away with it.
Yeah.
Yeah, they're not going to do.
Tired around his neck.
Yeah, use it as a lead.
As a lead.
Right, yeah, yeah.
Or as a collar.
Oh, okay, yeah, yeah.
Okay, so you know what?
I'm going to lock in my rating out of five.
I'm going to go a two today, Sean.
Oh, two.
Yeah, Harrison, what do you think?
I'm going to go for three.
Oh, that's a bad, shallop.
Our honorary guest judge today,
what would you rate that back out of five stars?
Super dog loving myself too
So, fact, eh
3.5, you do, can you that?
No.
3.3, 3.
Well, done.
Back to 3, back to 3.
Okay, 3 of 3.
I don't say 3, 3.
Okay.
Thank you, Charlotte for being a judge today.
I appreciate it.
Next time, Sean.
Next time.
You got that.
You got that.
Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
And I was on the train
today.
What? Why were you in the train?
Because I'm a...
You hate public transport.
I'm a public transport.
Yeah, I'm trying not to, though.
I love public transport.
It's like being driven by a chauffeur.
Do you sit there and go on your phone and then boom, you're at your destination.
I love it?
You know, I'm not a bus guy.
I do actually quite like the train.
I take the train as a novelty sometimes.
I quite enjoy it.
So I was on the train.
Some novelty.
Yeah.
Come on.
Man's like people, eh?
Not sure, no.
Well, it's because I can walk everywhere because my house isn't that far.
Right.
Sometimes I train, like I go one-stop training.
Like, I'm not training.
Anyway, I'm with my partner, Jeannie, my fiancé,
and I've got my earpods in.
And I've just bought these new earpod pro twos.
They're like $400 earpods.
They're so...
Again, mate.
Relatibility is important in the radio, I say?
God.
So I've got these flash-ass earpods.
I'm on this poor-as public transport.
So I'm at the back there.
And this is maybe serves me right for talking like this,
because it was unbelievable.
I could not believe it.
I was sitting down in my seat.
I go to put my AirPods back in the cage.
and if you've got earpods or even like any headphones,
the wireless ones, you'd know if you, like,
how finicky they are and easy to drop.
And if you drop them, they just bounce.
Like, it's like a rugby ball,
just in random directions, seven bounces.
So I drop it and I follow the trajectory as,
oh, here it goes, one bounce.
Oh, that's gone quite far.
Bounces another meter away,
two meters away from me,
and down this tiny little slit
on the side of the train
which fell down into the track.
There was probably, I kid you not,
a three inch by one inch gap.
Sorry, we're metrics here, mate, so I don't know what on inches.
I don't know.
This much.
That's all, no, it's a tiny gap.
Okay, got it.
A tiny gap.
So you lost your airport on a tiny little slit.
Yeah, but what are the chances?
I dropped it in the middle of the train and it went bounce, bounce, boop.
Felt it all, they're gone.
That's unlucky.
And now my headphones, I can't use them anymore.
Wasted.
You could use one?
Can you just use the one?
Yeah, but that's not good, is it?
No, yeah, no.
How much money do you make?
I'd love to know that.
That is crazy.
Well, I didn't throw it away, did I?
What's what I do with it?
Well, I'm going to have to try and...
No, no.
Are you going to biff it?
Or are you going to put your fingers down the little slit?
No, I thought about that.
You should have put your fingers in the slit.
No, no, no, no.
Too dirty.
Could you not have a moving train?
No, no, no.
It was the part where the train, like, the carriages come together.
Yeah, don't do that. Dangerer.
Like, you honestly lose a finger.
They were gone.
They were absolutely gone.
You do lose your fingers in those slits.
Yeah, so I was like, I'm...
I laughed.
I couldn't help but laugh.
It was one of those moments where I was like, I was up
set obviously, but an air pod in that is crazy.
Yeah, that should not be in there.
No, geez.
No, that's unlucky.
Yeah, filthy bastard.
Who else has had a bit of unluckiness in terms of losing something?
What were the chances?
Were you being proposed to on a jet ski?
And they were like, will you marry me?
Plop!
And they disappeared.
You know?
Yeah, where something, you lose something and you just have to laugh.
You're like, that is insane.
I think about it every day when I'm in the elevator.
And I'm like...
At your penthouse mansion?
Oh my God.
Sure.
Oh, God.
It's not a bedhouse.
It's floor 10.
Yeah.
But when I'm on my...
I should probably stop saying what floor I live on, no.
When I'm on the apartment elevator,
I'm like, I mean, you drop something down there.
Gone.
Yeah.
But when you press pH, it must feel like...
Oh, no better.
Your avos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
We're talking those moments when you lost something and you're like,
what are the chances?
So I was on a train today, and I was putting my AirPods
back, quite new airpod pro twos.
It's a good head find.
Putting them back in the little
air pod thing.
It fell down.
It bounced randomly two meters away
and then fell down this tiny little crack
in the corner of the train.
Like the only place that it could have gone
where these air pods were going to fall onto the train track
and just, I just laughed.
I was like, what are the chances that that's happened?
I dropped them right down here.
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.
It's so unlucky.
So unlucky.
I lost my engagement ring.
Just after I got it
and just after we got Larry, our golden retriever,
he was a puppy and he was upside down
and poor little thing has dandruff
and so he was upside down lying down
and I was brushing his tummy
to get all the dandruff off
and like I was holding a treat with one hand
brushing with the other to kind of still get him on his back
and not move.
Now then I realized my god my engagement rings disappeared
what are the chances that he ate it
like while I was brushing him
he didn't like seem like he was eating anything
or choking on anything or anything like that
but in and up taking him to the vet
because I looked everywhere in my lounge, wasn't anywhere.
And so took him to the vet, got the medication to make him spew up.
Lo and behold, there it was.
Really?
What are the chances of my dog accidentally eating my ring?
You've bonded it up.
Right in front of me, yeah.
Yuck.
Yeah.
It almost makes the engagement ring a little more special now, doesn't it?
Because it's got a tie to your partner and then also your dog, Larry.
It's been inside of him.
Yeah.
That's quite magical.
Let's go to the phones.
What are the chances, Sophie from the Trons calling in?
What are the chances?
This is Sife. Hello.
Oh, hello.
What did you lose?
Welcome, Sife.
Oh, so.
A few years ago, I went down to the river with my sister to do a little fishing.
And I had just bought a new iPhone, my first ever iPhone.
I put it up on the bank behind me, and it wasn't until I casted my rod back to throw it in,
that I felt to wait on the line.
and I don't know how this happened
but the hook ended up hooking on to the case
and all I could feel and see was my brand new iPhone
flying over my head, went into the river
I tried to pull it back and it was just
must have been stuck between rocks and I had to cut the line.
Oh no!
Lost the phone and the fishing line, brand new phone.
Yeah, the chances. That is crazy.
Yeah, that's great what are the chances.
That just sounds like unreal.
Unreal.
Wow.
If I was the insurance company, I would not pay you out for that, but that didn't happen to you.
That's insane.
That is a great-yard-ya-law, thank you.
Bridget from Christchurch is here.
What are the chances, Bridget?
What did you lose?
Well, I stopped in Kikora to video their seals for my grandchildren and turned my phone around
because I had the video facing the wrong way and my keys were hooked around my little finger.
and slid right off and hit the deck
right down by the seals about 10 feet down
I could see them
and my car was locked
and there by myself
in the late afternoon
so luckily though
with a few hours later in a tow truck coming
the lovely tow truck where I found a way
to get down there through a tunnel
and over some hills
and retrieved my keys
Whoa!
Hey, geez!
Wait how did the tow truck know that you were in trouble
because you had no phone or no keys.
Did he wave someone down?
No, I had my phone on.
They had my phone on me.
Gotcha, gotcha, okay.
So I'd run my insurance company and they were going to tow me to Kikora.
Right.
Yeah, since after all the earthquakes, the whole setup had changed.
True.
Yeah.
What are the chances.
What are the chances.
Thank you for that.
All right, let's go to Chloe and Nelson.
What are the chances?
Chloe, what did you lose?
Hi, mine was another air pod story, actually.
I was coming back from Auckland
and I ended up putting my earpods in
thinking it would just be an easy flight
and then one slipped out of my ear
fell down the side by where the window is
so I thought I'll be able to get that
fingers down I managed to push it in further
and it went in between the seats
so it was actually in the like frame of the seat
so it'd have to like weld it open
so I just thought I'll just
I'll just have to rock one.
No.
The one airport is like you may as well not have any.
It sucks.
I'm sorry with you do.
RAP.
See?
It happens.
It happens.
Your Avos head harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The edge.
The summer I turn pretty.
The finale.
The final episode drops tomorrow.
A lot of excited people out there.
Harrison and I included.
Very excited.
I'm up to date.
Sean is currently going through.
What are you up to now?
I'm powering through.
I'm at the end of season two.
I'm trying to get there.
I mean, I'm not going to make it in time, am I?
Third season is the best season.
So I just want to emphasize spoilers coming up.
I'm about to talk spoilers.
We're about to talk spoilers, so just be cautious of that.
Summer writes pretty.
Steph, you haven't watched the show?
Oh, God, I've heard so much about it.
Everyone I know is watching it.
But no, I haven't.
I haven't started.
Well, season one and two were quite kiddie because they're young.
They're like teenagers.
Yeah.
It wasn't a very good production, like the value of how it was shoddened.
everything. And then season three
they shot it differently
and they time jumped and they turned into adults.
Oh good. And so season three is
the best season. Okay. It's amazing.
How old are they? Oh, I don't want to get spoiled
for myself now. Yeah, I know. It's seriously
it's the shame we're having this conversation.
Should I leave the room? So what we were getting
our idea was, Harrison's going to pitch
the kind of plot to it, Steph, because it's about
her choosing which brother she goes with. It's kind of like
a twilighty kind of thing. Two guys, one girl.
So Harrison's going to pitch it like
the girl's your friend. And Steph
can decide which one she thought is the better one to go with.
But I kind of think I might leave for a room.
I reckon leave.
It's really worth it.
I'll just fill in a year.
You leave, yeah.
I'll come back in a minute.
Is that right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, leave.
Okay, so Steve.
Get out of here.
There's this girl called Bailey on the show.
Go, right, he's still here.
Go.
All right, he's up.
He's out.
There's this girl called Ballie on the show, and she's got Conrad and Jeremiah.
Two guys, family friends.
Okay.
And she's dated both of them.
Okay.
She's being with both of them.
Yeah.
Conrad's the bad boy.
She really likes the bad boy.
There's love there, there's connection.
Jeremiah doesn't really think of him that way.
And then her and Conrad have like a thing.
And then Conrad's mom passes away.
Oh no.
Conrad Jeremiah's mom, because they're brothers.
Oh, they're brothers.
Passes away.
Yeah.
And she doesn't take it very, like he gets real sad, Conrad.
And she's like, why are you so sad?
I'm trying to like be with you.
You're not loving me enough.
Because it's going through grief.
I know.
Imagine watching it.
That's what's going on, which is real stinking.
So they break up.
She's like, you've got no time for me.
You're grieving.
She's an awful girlfriend.
I know.
I know.
It sounds bad now.
It is bad.
And then, so that all happens.
And then she ends up getting with Dura Maya.
So now they were currently together in this later season.
Weird.
Not the brother anyone really wanted her to be with because he bloody cheats on her, doesn't he?
Oh, my God.
I know.
He cheats on her and she knows, but she doesn't say anything.
Yeah.
And then, like, she wants to go to Paris and, like, study over there.
But he's like, nah, stay with me.
I've got a really good, like, finance job.
I don't want you to leave you to stay with me.
toxic but there's still that love between
her and Conrad
and then it's the wedding day
they're getting married
what? So I'm going through a lot
they're about to get married and she's like getting ready
she's like I'm really on edge I don't know because the night before
she was thinking about Conrad she's like maybe I do like him
and then she goes turned around to go Jeremiah
and then Conrad walks into the room and goes
I still love you don't marry
my brother oh my god
what a great plot I know and she was like
you're awful
to say that stuff you,
she storms out, he storms out,
that everyone's like, where's belly? She flies to Paris.
And so she is currently
in Paris. Yeah.
With no boys, the brothers hate each other.
They're fighting. What would you
do? Do you go for the guy that you really
love, Conrad? Like, do you really love him? Do you go for
him? Or do you go back and patch up something
with Jeremiah just because you feel bad?
Okay. My advice
to belly would be
girl,
grow up. If you're
you're getting married to someone that you're even having a smallest little bit of doubt about,
it's not for you. And that's okay. That's totally okay to change your mind. Don't go through
with it. Eventually, if you decide that Jeremiah is the one for you, then cool, you can do whatever.
But at the moment, it's just not right. It'll make him upset. It'll make you upset. It'll mean
the relationship's doomed from the get go. Don't do it. Okay? You don't need to do it.
No one's pressuring you to get married to this guy. Don't do it. Second of all, you went there for
Conrad when his mother died. Like, he's going through grief. He needed you to be there for him.
weren't there. So you need to take a big long look and treat that as a lesson for yourself
and how to grow from that. Because I don't want to say that she's a bad person because she's
probably not. She's maybe dealing with her own stuff, right? She's maybe doesn't have the
capacity to deal with someone's trauma like that. And that's fine. That's what I think of what
it was. And that's just a little opportunity for her. No, no, no, no, not yet, not yet. And so
what I would say is this. If my friend was going through something similar, I would say, pick neither.
Pick neither. You need to be alone. You need to go to Paris. You need to do your thing. You need to
explore the world. You're still young.
I imagine she's like super confident,
pretty good looking. Like just do
your thing, live your best life.
There are plenty more fish in the sea. I think let
both these brothers go. Okay. This is great
advice, 100%. These are based on books and she does end up with somebody.
Oh, Conrad. She's going to be with Conrad. Connie.
Connie, baby!
Back in. Back in. Back in.
Yeah, come in. Okay. It needs to be here.
I can go. Yeah, you can go. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Tell me. Text in 3343. Team Conrad, Team
Jim Meyer.
Sean, you're in for a good run.
In season two, I'm team.
I'm Jeremiah, but I thought I don't know. I've heard that changes.
See, that's what happens in season two, but it may change in season three.
Anyway, hey, thanks for that, Harrison.
And Steph, I feel like I didn't contribute a lot there.
No.
You know what? That happens.
Your Arvos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
We had a legend by the name of Connor join us on the show on Friday.
Now, Connor's gone viral for getting a Warriors' Champions 2025 tattoo.
Talk the Wars.
Ahead of their game on Saturday, which was for elimination.
And they did lose.
Yep.
So he already had the tattoo on his body, right?
Not much you can do about that.
No, you can say you almost jinxed it.
Some people are thinking, but...
No, of course not.
There's not such thing as that rubbish.
So we did touch base with Connie yesterday,
just to check on him and see how things were going,
and he said he probably wouldn't do it again any time soon.
Oh, maybe not jump the gun next year.
Well, I mean, you could jump the gun with other teams.
The black ferns, I'd say, pretty good.
I'll be down.
Wait, if we teed up a tattoo artist
to get a black fern's tattoo
for you, would you do it?
Yes, yeah, I would.
Connor joins us back on the show right now.
Connor, we've got an update for you, my friend.
I know last time we talked you were interested in supporting another New Zealand
team and getting a Black Fern's tattoo.
Is that still the case?
Yes, it is.
Good, good answer, good answer.
Secondary question there, Connor?
Thursday, any plans, say about 3.30 in the afternoon?
No, no plans.
Hmm.
Huh.
And I'm just checking, you know, you've got one calf covered in the Warriors tattoo.
Love it.
The other calf, any action happening there with tattoo stuff?
No, not yet.
Not yet, not yet.
Blank canvas, some would say.
Interesting.
So, Connor, we've pulled some strings on our end, mate.
We do have a tattoo artist who's set up who wants to come and give you a Blackfern's tattoo on Thursday.
Completely free of charge if you're interested.
I mean, I can't turn down a free time.
tattoo and supporting a New Zealand team.
All right, let's see if we can finally break the Conner curse.
Can he get a tattoo of a team that actually then wins a championship, unlike this
warrior's one?
You can almost say it's kind of pivoting from up the waz to up the wahinae.
Exactly.
Exactly, exactly.
All right, Connor, lock it in, Brian.
We'll get in the details.
We'll see you Thursday.
We've got a tattoo artist.
It's going to be an amazing tattoo, mate.
And don't worry, we're going to break this losing streak of your tattoo fandom.
No, awesome. Sounds good.
You can bail?
It's not contractually obligated.
Yeah, you can say no, Connor.
No, I'm keen. I'm keen to do it.
Up the way, Neb.
Great.
If this fails, though, we will have to get you a third tattoo
for another team that will potentially win.
To break the streak eventually.
Great.
Sounds good.
Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Now, yesterday on the show, Harrison,
Sean, you guys, bought something to the table that was quite accusatory of me assaulting a woman.
Do you remember that?
Yep, we remember that very vividly.
And I just wanted to clear up the rumours on yesterday's show.
And I...
Well, you're coming off on a back foot.
We were trying to help you, eh?
We were trying to get ahead of it.
Yeah, so people don't misconstrude it, you know?
Yeah.
Like, it's going to be in the Herald.
Let's break it first.
Okay, okay.
Well, I appreciate that.
And what happened was I accidentally knocked a lady holding my son's tricycle.
Okay, so it was a very low-key thing made very high-key thanks to you guys.
You assaulted an old woman.
Harrison Keefe.
I didn't assault anybody.
Can we just clear the air right now with that one?
Well, well, well, how the tables have turned.
Oh, we're just going to make sure this isn't an assault thing, is it?
Now, I was in your comment section on Instagram.
Oh, God.
What on earth happened in Popeye's and Topo on the weekend?
Because there have been so many people leaving your comments on
random videos of yours on your
Insta, talking about an
incident that happened in Popeyes.
Look, if we're going to do it for Steph Harrison,
we've got to do it for you as well, mate. It's important.
If something did happen, let's get ahead of the new cycle.
Why did you go... I didn't know. I just
felt... I just saw one of them.
What do they say? Okay, this one says
I saw you in Popeye's in Toe-Port
on Saturday the 13th of
September. You responded
shot, brough, I saw you
too. And then he goes, and then someone else
goes, I was there too. Someone else goes,
So did I?
God.
What on earth's happened that made everyone look at you?
Okay, I did not want to share this on radio.
But I was traveling to Hawks Bay last week and with my dad,
and we were driving there together.
And we stopped off at Popeye's in Topor because I'm like,
oh, I'm going to get just a chicken sandwich like and we'll stop there.
I was like, and I need to go to the bathroom.
I don't really use the petrol station ones.
I'll use the Popeye's one because it's a new building.
I'll be nice a bathroom.
And it was a nice bathroom.
And I walk in and there's like four boys, I don't know,
teenagers, like maybe 15, 16, all sitting there on this little, like, you know, leaner by the window.
And they're like, staring me when I walk in.
And I'm just like, oh my gosh, like, you know, back off boys.
You don't have to stare.
Like, I don't know why they were steering at me.
And I was like, oh, gosh, and they go to the bathroom.
And I'm in that bathroom, 20 minutes.
I know.
I'm not going to get graphic, but I was feeding it.
Like it was.
You've been something gone graphic.
Yeah, I had drinks on up before, but a booze, poos, because I was like,
I'm just saying.
I had to get up so early to drive.
At a big night the night before,
and I didn't have time to let it out,
so I did at Popeyes.
20 minutes, I text my dad going,
sorry, bro, I'm still in the bathroom.
It was like, you don't worry.
I'm waiting in the restaurant for you,
and the Popeyes.
I was like, sweet-a-s.
And then, you know, once I've lost a few kilos,
I'd get up and go, oh, my God, amazing.
Walk out, no word of a lie.
There are about 20 to 30 people in Popeyes,
all staring at me,
all these young boys and young girls,
and they go,
Harris and Keith.
I'm like, yep.
They're like, we follow you, we follow you on Instagram.
That is you, eh?
I'm like, yeah, yeah, it is.
And they're like, oh yeah, and then my dad's like,
oh yeah, they've been waiting for you.
They've asked their mates to all come down.
No way.
But you've been in the bathroom for 20 minutes.
They're going to crack.
How embarrassing.
It makes sense because one of the comments is someone going,
yo, without me, you wouldn't have known that Harrison was even here.
So if these kids, four of them originally saw you.
Yes.
And then they texted all of their mates to come down to Popeyes
and be like, oh my God.
Harrison Keith, the guy from TikTok, the guy from the edges here.
Oh my God, this is amazing.
Yeah.
Meanwhile, it's taking you how long?
20 minutes.
Harrison.
But they're literally, and I've got messages.
I've got that DM me going like, oh, bro, we saw you go on the toilet.
You didn't come out for ages.
I was like, no way.
And then my dad's like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
And dad's like, oh, get your chicken sandwich.
I'm like, I'm okay.
He's like, no, get him.
My next one has to wait and stuff.
I'm just going to go.
See you guys?
I was leave.
I was so embarrassed.
So to make it even worse, you also just went in, use the bathroom without
buying anything. Yeah, it was worse.
I drew some customism.
That's incredible.
So much texted, thank you for this joke to
33443. Don't call it Popeyes.
Call it. Poop eyes.
That is good. Yeah, that's good.
Oh, pink eye. Now, why we are getting ahead
of this.
That seems like another part of the story that we don't have time for.
While we are just getting ahead of
these things like Steph the other day, assaulting an old
woman, and then just clearing it up on the radio.
Accidentally. Get ahead of it. Harrison
kind of performing a hate crime in the pop
his bathroom. These are all things that are important
for us to get ahead of. So let's open this up
right now. O-800 the Edge or 3-3-4-3.
There might need nothing that comes
through, but if you've ever seen myself
Sean, Stephanie Monks or Harrison Keith
out and about doing something unsavory,
come and report it right now.
Give us a chance to get ahead of it.
I think also just in general.
Like what did you just see us do? Just in case
we can address those rumours or whatever's just happened there, you know?
I saw you in the line and you got four Big Macs.
I'm like, yeah, but you just tell me.
and I'll tell you why I got it.
Exactly.
It wasn't for four friends.
They were all for me.
Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
If you've just joined us,
Harrison was just getting ahead of a little story
that broke over the weekend.
Just before it gets to, you know, big publications
about how he did something in a bathroom in a pop-eyes.
Yeah, we went to the Popeye's bathroom,
about 20 minutes, came back out,
and there's a crowd of 20 to 30 kids all wanting to meet me.
Yeah.
And it was quite embarrassing.
I was in there for quite a while,
so they all knew I just been taking a crap
for the last 20 minutes
while the patiently waited to see me.
Not ideal.
It's not ideal.
Great opportunity now, though,
for you to clear that up
for everyone wondering what was happening
in the bathroom.
Steph, we cleared up something yesterday
about you, assaulting an old woman.
Accidentally knocking into a lady
holding a tricycle.
So because we are, you know,
it's kind of just to say,
we are a little bit in the public eye
and you are part of the show,
the people's show, we thought you...
Sorry, that's so yuck.
No, exactly.
Exactly.
But you are as well.
As a listener of the show,
you're part of the show,
so it reflects badly on you
if something happens.
So this is an opportunity for us to reach out to you.
You get in touch with us.
You let us know if you've seen us doing anything unsavory,
we can address it, and then we can move forward.
There's no way to cancel us if we get ahead of it.
Guys, the text on 3343 have flooded and you could almost say.
Yeah.
Quite a lot of stuff we get up to, huh?
Can I read some?
Yep.
Okay, someone said,
I saw Harrison stumbling out of an Uber naked yelling,
you're not the boss of me.
What the hell is that about?
There's multiple.
I can prove that.
There was probably
uni days, okay?
It was probably in Wellington,
getting out on Uber,
or it would have been a challenge.
It was a challenge.
Bit of hazing.
A bit of hazing kind of vibe there.
Low rating, probably.
I got one for you, Steve.
I saw Steph doing star jumps
in the car park of St. Luke's Mall.
Oh, yeah, that's just to wake me up.
I'm trying to lower my caffeine.
No, no, it's like,
it's a trend on TikTok.
It's like you wake up, you do 50 jumps
and I just waited until I was shopping to do that.
Yeah, that was random.
Okay, thank you for addressing it.
A few, Harrison,
Someone said I saw Harrison stealing copper wire from a building site.
Hmm.
Yeah, I needed it.
Okay.
Yeah, sorry, I didn't need that.
It was quite expensive.
Copper's real expensive.
Yeah, sorry.
By the way, 3343 is our text number.
If you've seen any of us doing anything, you want to do us in.
Someone goes, I saw Sean leaving a chemist warehouse holding a lot of pseudo-effadry.
Oh, Sean.
Yeah.
What's that?
Well, I can explain.
You know, I got quite sick recently.
You're always sniffly.
Yeah, so that's the strong stuff.
You've got to have it on hand.
That's true.
Speaking of Chemist Warehouse, Steph.
What?
You've been spotted at the chemist warehouse?
No, I have not.
What?
I saw Steph buying a family pack of double XL Connie's at Chemist Warehouse.
Yeah, boy.
Good, you girl.
Thank you.
Good.
I like that.
You know, back on the horse.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's not even something to defend.
That's just contraception's good, isn't it?
Yeah, postpartum, you know?
Just doing my thing again.
I'd like to see you defend this one, though, Steph.
I once witnessed Steph take the wheelchair ramp from my local community centre.
Oh, Steph.
I returned it.
You're just borrowing it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Go to a little bike jump or something, did you?
Wow, I mean, you know I've got a kid at home,
and he likes going down on his tricycle on ramps.
So that's just what that does.
No big deal.
Probably shouldn't borrow it, but I guess if you take it off big times,
I returned it.
I returned it.
You didn't steal it, did you?
That's good.
Yeah, any other texts there coming through?
We got to the call.
Yeah, we've got more tests.
We got a call first, I reckon, because this last one's pretty harrowing.
Okay.
Who's it about?
You'll know, Sean.
Oh, okay, we'll get to that in a minute.
But on 0800 the edge, Anna, what have you seen one of us do?
I was at Glassens getting changed the other day.
And like I could see out there's like a crack in between, you know, the door and the wall.
And like looking out, I just kind of like, I saw this eye.
And I was like, oh, this is it weird?
And I opened it up.
And yeah, and Sean was like right there.
Yeah, it was kind of creepy.
He said he was waiting for his girlfriend.
He thought his girlfriend was in my changing room, but, yeah, no, it was me.
So just to clarify, Anna, you're in the Glacin's changing room,
and you looked at the, was it a curtain or a door?
A curtain.
It was a, yeah, it was like a crack in the curtain.
A crack in the curtain.
All you can see, all you can see is an eyeball.
You know, I can explain this.
And, you know what, I just want to get ahead of this.
First off, I did check under the curtain.
in first and you had the same shoes as my partner.
So I thought, let's have a crack snake
and then I've gone, oh, that's not her.
But Sean, you have to say, like, words.
You know how your job is talking?
Like, it's just doing that.
But in, like, a store, you'd be like, hey, Jeannie.
Oh, you can't do that.
No, you can't do that.
Stay out of it.
Stay out of the glasses, man.
You think so?
I think so.
I'm not allowed back now anyway.
Yeah.
You didn't need to make a scene about it, Anna?
No, I think she should have.
I think she did the right thing.
That was the final cheese.
It was about, this is about Sean again.
Oh, God.
Is that?
I was going for my morning walk at 6 a.m.
Sean.
And I saw Sean on the beach at the shoreline
with his pants around his ankles,
shaving his pubs into the ocean.
Yeah, Jeannie, my fiancé hates it when they get on the sink.
So I do it in the ocean.
You're so gross.
I thought it in the shower.
It is.
It's nature of the beach you do it.
Well, because then they give the fish something to eat.
And the pants on your ankles?
Jesus, get them up, right?
Your Ivo's Head Harder with Sean.
Steph and Harrison.
Guys, you know that feeling of getting the goosebumps or shivers
or, you know, that feeling that goes through your body, down your neck
when you hear a really, really good song.
Especially like a moment in the song where the singing is just so incredible.
You have a physical reaction to it.
Learn today it actually has a word.
And the word is quite fancy, so don't make fun of me when I say it, but it's a French word.
It's called frisson.
Frisson.
Frisson.
Frisson.
Frisson.
And it's linked, get this.
to strong emotional intelligence
and the ability to connect deeply with others.
But not all of us experience frisson
or goosebumps.
Croissant.
Not croissant, no.
Frisson.
I don't see the difference, okay?
Friissant.
Yeah.
Coisson.
So some of us are the same to me.
Some of us are gluten-free.
Yeah.
And we'd opt for another pastry.
So some of us have never...
I don't really like croissants.
No, no, no.
I think they're overhyped.
Yeah.
Some of us have never experienced goosebumps
when listening to music before.
which has blown my mind.
I thought it was like a normal thing.
I've never experienced it.
Let's talk about this before.
You guys say,
I want to hear that.
It gives me chills.
I've never,
ever had a physical reaction
to listening to music.
So you're one of the 45% of people
that don't,
which means that if you do get goosebumps and chills
when you listen to certain music,
it means you're more in tune with your emotions,
more emotionally intelligent,
more empathetic.
Interesting, eh?
Well, she has to do with,
like, maybe when you hear, like,
you know, at the moment,
the Kelly Holliday's,
song Dancing too.
I love it on a crescent.
But I also think about things when I hear it, that emotional part of it?
That's a part of it.
So it can either be the singing itself with a powerful chorus or something,
but it can also be a sudden silence.
Can also do it.
It's like an unexpected occurrence during a song
or emotional lyrics that strike a chord as well can give you frisson
or these goosebumps or chills when you listen to music.
So since kind of half the population gets this effect for music,
half of us don't. Producer New Sam has
prepared some little samples of
people singing, just from a compilation from
online, to see if
anyone gets the chelts or gets for a song.
And Sean, this is a
real kind of, let's
even all hope and thoughts and prayers
for Sean right now to really get the emotional
side of you going and let's try and get you some goosebumps.
No, we've talked about this. I'm just not
in touch with it. I think if I open those floodgates,
we don't quite want to do that. We don't know
where that's going to lead us.
Okay, we've got a few clips in front of you. Let's see what happens.
everyone listening in their cars and stuff, maybe turn up the volume of wee notches,
and see if any of the following clips get you for a song.
Shut your mouth there.
Shut your mouth, baby, skin.
That didn't work for me.
Did it work for me?
But I'm getting close.
Yeah, getting close.
It's just a song to me.
No, no, no, no, no.
Okay, another one, another one.
Oh, yeah, that one.
So gross.
There it is.
There it is.
I found that, yeah.
Wait, wait, wait, hold up.
This is real weird what's happening.
You're saying, I'm close.
Yeah, I'm close.
You're saying, I'm just, that's happened for me.
I did it.
If everyone's tuned in, we're trying to give ourselves goosebumps by listening to emotional songs and nothing else.
It's like a scientific thing and half the population can or 55% of people can.
45% of people can't.
Sean can't.
Let's try and get the emotional side of you to come out, Sean.
Open up, open up.
Close your eyes, not if you're driving.
And really try, Sean.
Really listen to the singing.
Song three, hands above the table, please.
That's a beautiful, beautiful song.
It's when the harmony kicked in.
Oh, that's beautiful.
Wow.
You don't feel anything there short?
I did feel something there.
Okay, great.
I did.
That was the closest one.
Do you feel it in your stomach or your heart?
Where do you feel it?
Yeah. In my stomach.
Yeah.
Like you're going to be sick or you love it so much.
No, I liked it.
Oh, cool.
Yeah, it was good.
That was the most emotional I've been.
I think it was closing my eyes out.
Someone texts it in saying they felt a pain in their left elbow.
I don't think that's what you're supposed to feel it.
You might be having a stroke and you should go to A&A.
Oh no, producer news, Sam.
As a medical background, she's nodding.
Yeah, the left side is a bad side.
Oh, God, go on you're driving.
If you can smell burnt toast, go to the hospital.
Oh, no.
Killed someone.
No, kids don't do with me.
No, no, no, no.
The last one.
I hate this.
I don't know.
I hate this.
Your avos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Have you guys ever used, like, marketplace?
You use it a bit.
It's torture.
Your partner's obsess.
the day. Oh, he's buying and selling all the time. And I tried to, a couple of months back,
just doing a bit of a garage clean now. And I was like, oh, I can, I'll put up a few Facebook
Marketplace post, no big deal. Oh, God, notification, notification. Is this thing
is this available? Is this available? Like, non-stop. And then the people that are interested,
change their mind, not interested, they go to, they ask you a thousand questions, read the listing,
all the information's there. Can you drop it off to Drury, which is like South Auckland,
like a long way away from where I live? No.
I can't drop it off to Drury.
Do you come and get it at my house?
That's how it works.
You see, this is how everyone always reacts when you talk about Facebook marketplace.
It's this reaction that you're doing right now, Steph.
Hate it.
I've never used it.
And it sounds like the dark web or something.
Like, it sounds insane.
I thought it was just like trade me.
And trash shoes, trading me pretty standard, pretty straightforward.
This place sounds horrific.
It's the Wild West.
Well, let me help you out, because I know you're actually looking to sell a TV at the moment,
and you're talking about whether you're just kind of like, Steph quite badly,
wants it, but you're like kind of holding that power over her a little bit. I respect that.
Thank you.
So I thought I'd help you out with how you've got to be. Do you want to see, I said, I listed
this couch for 20 bucks because I want to get rid of it. Look at this. It's an amazing deal
for a couch, by the way. Whoa. Is it all from the same person those messages?
Whoa. Whoa. So the first thing is there's an automated message that goes high as this
available. Everyone hits that. It's the worst. Well, that's the question, isn't it? Yeah.
But obviously it's available. Like, I'm listening at a marketplace. Like, give me some more info.
No, but like, I can pick it up at this time. I'm listening. I'm trying to sell it.
All right. The second thing. The second thing.
notice is people treat you
like absolute garbage. You're
not a human on marketplace. They can
cancel their plans. They can tell you can come
get something and they can also tell someone else that's first and
first serve doesn't matter. There's no rules
or regulations. I had to go yesterday. I waited around
at home all day for a guy to come pick
this thing up. He was messaging me four times
set a time, didn't show up. Ghosted me.
And just left the chat. And another guy today, same
thing. I waited around all morning, two days in a row
ghosted me. So now I'm just like,
I'm like, well, I'll stoop to your level. I'm firing
out to five people, obviously team five people up to come pick it up tonight.
Whoever gets there first, come get it.
Other people, who cares?
I honestly, if you're going to treat me like this, I'll treat you like this.
Another guy messaged me and goes, I'll come pick up the couch.
I'll come there, come, come, show up today.
Okay, shows up there and he goes, will it fit in my Suzuki Swift?
Like, no, it won't fit in your Suzuki Swift.
It's a couch.
I put the photo of the couch.
You go, sorry, I didn't have the measurements.
It's like, it's a couch.
It's a $20 dollar couch.
It wouldn't fit in a sedan.
No, it doesn't fit in your Suzuki Swift.
Who are you?
Where did you learn sizing?
What does this fall in on me?
Where did you learn sizing?
People treat you like absolute rubbish Harrison
And if you don't sleep to their level
You're going to be eaten, man
The gazelle gets eaten by the lion
You have to be the bigger lion
Oh see, this is why I haven't been using it
Because that scares me more, Sean
But yeah, so this TV
I got a new TV
It's just been sitting up
And upstairs just sitting there
And I saw it today and I was like, right,
I think it's time
I think it's time to do face it marketplace
I've genuinely just been too scared to do it
because of all these reactions
but I really need your guys help.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
We're just talking.
I was complaining a little bit.
I'll be honest.
A little bit of complaints about how I'm selling something on Facebook Marketplace
and people have been treating me so poorly and just ghosting me
that I've kind of slipped to their level.
And Harrison who's about to get on Marketplace, a little nervous.
We're asking for tips.
Oh, 800, the Edge.
3343.
What are your tips for dealing with the doldrums of society,
aka Facebook Marketplace?
Sean, you mentioned the automated message.
So on Facebook, Marketplace Harrison,
the first little prompt they give you
is sending the person who...
Hi, is this available?
Exactly.
Yeah, but I still don't understand.
So it's that, but I'm asking if it's available.
Yeah, it's just to be like, hey, I'm keen, basically.
Hey, I'm keen.
Exactly.
And then normally it's good to follow it up with something like,
I could pick it up at this time, at this place,
or like you could start bartering on price or whatever.
But Brittany, text it in.
I just ignore the automated message.
Got to do it.
That's kind of what I do, too, because what you'll find selling a text.
TV, especially for a cheap price, like you are, Harrison, you'll be in and dated with messages.
The ones that won't stand out are the, hi, is this available, the automated message.
The ones that go out of the way to be like, hi, I'm super keen on this, I've got the money,
I can buy it on Saturday, I'm free.
So don't click on the high I'm available ones.
Just go for other messages because they actually are onto it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're putting in the effort, which means they're more likely to actually follow through and pick it up.
Yeah, there's a text here.
Yeah, in your listing, put the pickup times, measurements, etc.
So you don't have to actually reply to people.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's another thing.
You just have to message so many people.
Oh, my God.
So annoying.
And then they ghost you.
And then the next one, I'm coming now, I'm coming now.
Are you coming?
No.
Yeah, all the information has to go on the listing.
So price, size, measurements, every single measurement.
The people are going to want to know measurements that you don't even think about.
Measure everything.
Put it all in the listing.
Put what branded is, what year you bought it.
If there's been any troubles with it, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Is the remote included?
Blah, blah, blah, everything.
and then as soon as someone...
Does it fit in a swift?
Yeah, as soon as someone asks your question about it,
you can just be like, refer to the listening.
See, I've already, okay,
I've already typed out a little draft
on my phone.
So I put a photo of the TV up.
Just a, it's like a, the empty kind of room,
just the TV in there.
It looks smaller in person.
It looks quite small in this photo.
I'm quite far back.
Yeah.
I did 0.5 in the lens.
Oh, God, that's a, okay.
It's make it a bit artsy, like a cool kind of shot.
She's not a good hack.
Put a pot plant in the photo.
Everything looks better with the plant nearby.
It's just an empty white.
right room with a TV.
That's like a prison cell.
And it just says,
TV, two year old,
buttons on remote,
100 buck.
Why?
Why are not using some S's at the end of words there?
I was just trying to be cool.
That shouldn't be relatable.
Nah.
TV, two year old,
got buttons on remote, 100 buck.
No, I don't think.
Is that right?
I would just write it like we've suggested.
Oh, really?
You'll find better success.
How else should I write it?
It's like that.
I've got TV for $100.
Look, just let Steph Bly, take off your hands
and don't deal with anyone.
Yeah, I'll get it off here.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
But right now, it's part of the show where I will pitch a quite hypothetical
would you rather question, something a little philosophical.
Today's is, would you rather add an extra zero to your lifespan
or to your yearly salary for the rest of your life?
Lifespan.
What?
What does it mean?
So right now, how are you now?
30, at another 0, do you live to 300?
Oh.
So your lifespan.
So if you live to be 85, you'd live to be 850.
Oh, no, not that.
So that's what I'm saying, would you love to live 800 years?
I wouldn't.
No.
No one would.
Wait, wait, wait, are you 800 years old in this body, or are you 850 years old body?
Thriving.
Like, you can't walk, you can't talk, you can't feed yourself.
You've probably got dementia because it's what old people get.
A head on a chair.
Yeah.
Okay, let's say you age proportionately to your time alive.
Gotcha.
So it's like dog years.
Yeah, dog years.
Yeah, yeah.
Or an extra owe to your salary.
So I think the instant thought is, oh, I make my lifelong.
I don't want to live for 800 years.
I don't even want to live to 100.
Do you know what my nana looked like on her 100th birthday?
This.
Oh, a corpse.
She was asleep in her armchair.
Bless her.
She'd lost her teeth.
They'd gone missing.
Like, bless you
Do they find them?
No.
They couldn't find her teeth.
They were gone.
Jeez.
Bless her.
Love her, but no.
I found interesting you know that you said naturally people would want to do the age thing.
I think people would naturally want to do the money thing.
You think so?
Mm-hmm.
Who?
Yeah.
Who?
I'm 25.
Why would I go, oh, add another zero to my paycheck, which you know, I don't know how that math works really.
But it'd probably be a lot, you know, if add another zero to things.
Mm-hmm.
Or live till 250 years old.
That's ridiculous.
I don't want to go through the world ending.
That will happen.
I don't want to go through any more, any walls here.
Think about it.
If you're 800 years old,
you're probably going to see aliens come visit.
I want to die.
But that will be exciting.
So, like, yeah, the world might end,
but you might see some cool shit.
You might see aliens.
You might get to travel in space,
tourist, space tourism, next big thing.
You might get to see that.
Wait, and can you just not die?
You can't die.
That's torture.
Why would you live through that?
You see all of your family die around you.
You'll just be floating alive.
You'll be floating alive in space for years and years.
800 years of a family tree.
Death upon death upon death.
No, there's a way odd one that.
Actually, the more you put it like that,
it's pretty appealing to me.
Okay, I thought you guys will be more obsessed with trying to live forever than you are.
That's okay.
Nah.
That's all right.
Okay, what?
No, my knees are already giving out.
Something to think about.
Something to think about.
Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison.
The Edge.
Hey, hope you enjoyed the podcast.
This is a little bit extra.
We call it the podcast outro.
Because, um,
I'm quite a giving person, eh?
Don't know, are you?
Is that a rhetorical question?
You're wanting us to, like,
psych moments you're given.
Yeah, it was quite rhetorical.
A giving person.
One, let's think about this one.
Has he ever given you anything, Sean?
He did help me, he's helped me shoot social media content
when I was like, Harrison,
can you film this bit?
And he gave up his own time to help me show someone.
Giving up time is a biggie.
I did that.
He's give up time.
So I'd say yes, I'd say yes, you're a giving person.
Brought you guys stuff.
You've probably bought us stuff.
Hmm, I've been.
Bickies.
I baked your bickies.
You've also baked fudge.
Fudge?
Oh, Rocky Road?
Sorry, we had to things so hard about it.
Yes, you're a giving person.
Well, I baked again, guys.
You got baked again?
No, it's been a while since that.
I baked again.
Where is it?
Should we just close our eyes and put our hands out again?
No, no, I'll show you this is what I was making.
So it's like a caramel slice, like bicky base in the bottom,
yum.
Caramel in the middle and then chocolate on top.
And instead of caramel, it's like a peanut butter caramel.
Delish.
So that's what it looks like.
Gorgeous.
Got home, so excited to make this.
Oh my gosh, I did this bag.
And it was just a bit disastrous.
Like I had to make three different batches.
I kept ruining it.
They keep stuffing up.
Like I'd put like, they said,
I thought it said three cups of baking powder
Oh no
That can't be true
You don't even get a cup in a thing
And then I read underneath it and it said
One teaspoon of baking powder
I'm like what the fuck what are you talking about
And I looked at it
It was three cups of peanut butter
I was like oh for fuck sakes
I'd have to biff that out
And I was texting somebody
And I lost so much baking powder
I know that I put it back in the box
I just put it in the fucking bin
I don't know if I'm thinking to do that
So
I've made some lovely
peanut butter
caramel
slice for you guys. Are you ready? Wow, it's actually
here. I can't believe it.
That looks lovely. Truthfully, I spied
that in the bag earlier because it was sitting up on the desk
there, but I said to Harrison, I was like, oh, you made a
slice and he's like, you're a fucking seagull. Here you go.
Try it.
Try it. Now you may notice
looks quite different
to the picture.
Hugely.
Hmm.
What do you think?
It's very dry.
Yeah, anything else?
Oh, come on.
I would love some milk with this.
I mean, it's awesome.
I can taste a peanut butter.
Yeah, I put in too many wheat butter.
I put in too many wheat bits.
I'm not.
Is that what it is?
It's actually that dry.
It's quite dry.
I put up a berry powder.
I thought they were dry berries.
It's berry powder, which is very dry on the top.
I think, I quite like the berry powder.
Yeah.
I don't hope that, but.
It's fucking awful.
I mean, I put it drunk it in milk.
It's like a chocolate biscuit.
It's that dry.
I know.
But it's meant to be like a nice, creamy,
slice. It's definitely not creamy.
It's fucking awful. I've got so
that's one of the three containers
I have in my fridge. Jokes aside, that was actually
really nice. I like that. Actually? Yeah, but I need
a dunker. Yeah.
No, it's good. It's like a dry, it's like it reminds me of an
afghan. Exactly. Exactly.
That is an Afghan. Not an Afghan.
That is a square Afghan.
Look at them. Yeah. I mean, it's not what you've been
presiding. Very different. It's not a gooey slice
at all. The peanut butter is very subtle. Really?
I used a whole jar.
Yeah. Good on you for giving it a go.
Yeah, thanks.
Love that.
What do you reckon, compared to my
Bickies that I made,
what were they?
The biscuits were dry.
I didn't like the biscuits.
Those were my favourite thing.
I don't like those.
Oh, there were Cockgrass biscuits for Easter
and then Rocky Road.
The Rocky Road was absolutely the best.
Yeah, but Steph, again, that's just chocolate.
Yeah.
I don't do much for that.
Yeah.
Mount the chocolate and put lollies and stuff in it.
Yeah.
And Scotch fingers, your favourite biscuit.
Yeah.
Now we go really well with a cup of tea
because it's like quite dry.
You go a cup of tea.
Sip, shall we?
Sip, sip, and a...
I love a candy.
Oh, that's.
It was like an and-drick biscuit, eh?
Yeah, it's yum.
It's good if you go into it thinking biscuit, then it's like, great.
You change your mentality to eat it, but it's good.
And I put like half a bag of coconut in it.
Oh, great.
I can taste that.
I taste none of it.
Oh, you really?
Yeah.
You don't taste coconut.
It's the texture, though.
Yeah, it's not bad.
Okay, it's not bad.
When do you have time?
Was this a late night thing or an early morning thing or?
Up to 11 doing it.
I was not.
You were up to 11 bag.
Yeah.
She was out of town at the moment, my girlfriend?
Yeah.
So I just baked
And like meal prep for the week
I was like, I'll bake on the side of them
Oh, that's actually so wholesome
Yeah, that's what I thought
Look at you changing your habits
Love that for you
Yeah, but I thought it would be more wholesome
If it turned out to be really yum
Yeah
It's not though, so it's less wholesome
I thought it was not bad
I wouldn't try that and go yuck
Yeah, it would be yum with a coffee or tea
Yeah
Yeah
You know I've never baked in my life
Really?
It's like doing a delicious science experiment
Yeah
It's fine how it works
Like I've cooked a lot
I enjoy cooking
But I think there's something about baking
That's like the time between the like
Making it and eating it is too long for me
Like cooking you can kind of take it
It's chasing along the way
What's baking you just have to go into it
Knowing that it's never going to look like the pitcher
Or taste as good as the original recipe maker
Like you just go into it knowing
It's not going to be perfect
But it's still going to be yum
So if you go with that mentality
Why would you go on with that mentality
Because every oven's different
Every like minute that something
cooking, like baking for longer than it needs to be, like, changes stuff.
So, like, you just go into it forfeiting that it's going to be perfect,
and then it's always going to be great.
And I think I always fuck it up because it always very precise with ingredients, you know,
but I always go, hmm, I think it should be more peanut better, hmm,
I think there should be more chocolate, more wheatbooks, and it always ends up ruining it.
Yeah, and that excuse the ratios.
I actually kind of help myself.
I'm that way inclined as well.
What is it about that?
I think it's because you, is it a male thing?
Because maybe it's, we want to have our own, we want to have, like, put our own mark on it.
No, Jake can't follow a recipe to save his life.
No, I never follow Espos.
No.
I fuck up so many things.
Because you want to, in your dream scenario, you want to be able to go,
oh, it tastes so good.
It's because I knew better.
I know, but I think it's also that, but it's also like,
this time it will work if I do it my way.
That's what I think every time, oh,
you guys definitely should have put more chocolate and peanut butter in this recipe,
and more wheat bugs.
Then that happens.
And more wheat bags.
Yeah, there you go.
Next time.
This is loving wheat bags.
That's more dry wheat bricks.
Fuck.
Yeah, I do that when I cook.
I think it needs to be like this.
It needs to be saltier.
It needs to be this.
And then it doesn't.
Oh my God, it drives my mum mad
whenever she's up visiting
and she cooks for us
occasionally, it's normally Jake, but she'll
you know, what's she doing during the day, you know,
get her in the kitchen.
And then
Jake's just like in there adding in salt and pepper
and adding chili and da-da-da-da-da-da.
Mom's just standing there being like,
like he has to add stuff.
He cannot follow a recipe. He must do
something to juz it up.
Yeah, to make you feel like you know.
Yeah.
So I think, like, it's just quite bland.
Like, love you mum, but I was bought up with, like, very bland food.
Oh, so was I.
Yeah.
Yeah, I've learned to, like, put flavour into my food now.
I'm grateful.
I still haven't learnt that.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what, actually, so was I.
Mm.
You know, mother's a...
Maybe that's the weird thing we've all got...
This is the first thing we've all got in common.
Like the meat, three veg, no salt, no pepper.
I remember the first time I tried, like, a roast chicken that wasn't, like,
dry as with nothing on it.
We'd draw friends twice, and I was like, Mom, you didn't learn how I took chicken.
Yeah.
I didn't realize growing up because I was never like, like I was thankful for my mom's food.
It was when I went to Friends' houses, I was like, oh, my mom can't cook.
No, my mom can cook.
My mom absolutely can cook.
She's an incredible cook, but it's very bland.
Yeah, okay.
My mom does cook.
I don't know if she can.
You know what I'm saying?
She has to.
She provides.
Yeah, she doesn't.
Yeah, all her moms can cook.
Yeah.
Like, all the moms do cook.
Yeah.
No, my mom's a great cook.
Right.
She just doesn't know what flavor is.
But then that doesn't make...
I would say that makes not a great cook.
No, but for me...
I know you're trying to save her.
But remember, my taste is like my favourite food of sausages.
So like, just stick it on...
Or plain pasta.
So I'm like, I'm very low maintenance when it comes to food.
So she can avoid you getting sick by literally cooking the food, but can she flavour it?
She can't flavour it.
No, that's an issue.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
This thing.
Hey!
Can I be another piece?
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, fantastic.
