Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a podcast from Rover. Your Avos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Hello everybody. Thank you so much for selecting this particular podcast to be your friends for the next little while. And that was Sam. Sorry, sorry. I didn't release me Mike Whizz on yet.
Starting point is 00:00:18 Fucking hell, Sam. Oh, good. Now, no Sean on the show this afternoon. So if you're a big Sean fan, apologies. Apologies. A big Sean fan, turn this off. Yeah, turn this off. You're going to hate this one.
Starting point is 00:00:29 You're going to really hate it. Yeah. But Sam, what are we looking forward to today? Today we're looking forward to Steph's three things to make a relationship stronger, aka Fart Chant. According to science. Also, Harrison gets to the bottom of Group 7. What is this fucking Group 7?
Starting point is 00:00:46 We're about to find out that's exciting. And we also do the Arvopolo Challenge. Oh, yeah. That was pretty fun. Juggling, do they? Yeah, juggling. Very good. I've got a lot of experience.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Yeah, same. And then we also reminisce on the Hawks' Bay with Harrison and some of his well one of his coolest teachers. Yes. Excite. All right everyone. Enjoy your hot girl walk or you're cleaning the house or whatever you're up to and leave us a living here. Oh, your 45 minute
Starting point is 00:01:11 poo. Yeah or I don't know it depends like do you have us on while you're being intimate? Okay let's just play it. It's an option. Let's just play it. Your Arvoh's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison The Edge. On your Friday here at the long labour weekend. It's a beautiful thing. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:01:28 Three days off. Harrison here on the edge. No, Sean. But you're having the day off? On Monday. We'll get it off? How country is, man? Actually? Well, I mean, if you work hospital, if you're an essential worker in hospitals and things
Starting point is 00:01:39 like that, then probably is not. Yeah, radio is pretty essential. And I'm probably going to turn up. You're going to turn up. I'll hold the station down. I can't wait to hear a Harrison solo show. Yeah, I don't know how to work any of the buttons. Yeah, good luck.
Starting point is 00:01:51 If you want to hear the radio, just come to the studio, just do it live to you. Now, we're in relationships. Our producer Sam, hello. I want your input here because there is a, according to science, three things that apparently everyone has to do in relationships that will create a happier and healthier relationship. Now this is science. There's stats and facts to back these up. Have to do this. Well, I mean, if you want a healthier and happier relationship, then these are the keys.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Okay. Excuse me, farmers, never have a day off. Yeah. Shout out to you farmers. We see you. We see you. We love you. We thank you.
Starting point is 00:02:29 We thank you. We love your meat. Truly, truly just can't stop. We love your meat. Well, we do. And the milk. They do other things too. The wall.
Starting point is 00:02:45 We think these three things make your relationship happier and healthier. Oh, yeah. Big issue if you don't. That's when you definitely run into some walls, I'd say. I'd say it's a good bonding experience as well, like venting together. You know, it can bring people together. you think? Yep, I agree. Because then you can giggle about it and like, I don't know, you feel like you're on
Starting point is 00:03:03 the same page. Yeah, 100%. You can just look at each other and you just know what each other's thinking. But the worst thing is if you like somebody and then your partner doesn't, the convincing for that is real tricky. Right. Trying to get them to come around. Oh, she's not that bad. She's lovely. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Sorry, no longer friends. Okay, that can be a bit of a pickle. All right, the next one. These are ways to make your relationship happier and healthier. Teasing each other. Oh, yeah. Do you and your girlfriend do that, Harrison? Yeah, I wakes up and I go, she always goes, sup fatty when I wake up.
Starting point is 00:03:37 She does, every morning. Every morning. Every morning. Every morning I go, sup fatty, I'm like, awesome, suck your stinky breath. Yeah, but yes, so the banter, yeah. You think morning breath's bad? You meet my girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Okay, okay. That's what you want, like teasing like that? I don't think, like, together. And I think it has to be reciprocal. It can't be like one person's into the teasing. And like, like, it's, we get a bit teary. but it's all a bit of fun. Sam, would you agree on that one?
Starting point is 00:04:02 Yeah, I totally would. Banter back and forth. It's like fun. Yeah, yeah. It's flirty almost. Yeah, flirty. You have to know that the other person's in the right headspace, though. If it's been a long day at work and they're just not ready for it.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Right place, right time. That is home. Not the day. Heard you walking out the car, walking down the street. I knew you were coming. Cheers, babe. Yeah, cheers, babe. Not the day.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Okay, now this next one is a real, it's a point of contention, and I think with a lot of people in relationships. Scientists say that to make your relationship healthy and happier, you have to be able to fart in front of each other. Now, Sam and I really differ on this. Harrison, I don't know what your relationship's like. Do fill us in. So, fart around my girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:04:49 Yeah. So I try and hold it in as hard as I'm at sometimes, and she's like, ooh, because truly, I've never heard my girlfriend fart. Yeah, though. Five years. Not once. I was like, do you fart? She goes, yeah, on the toilet.
Starting point is 00:05:03 So I said you go to the toilet and just sit and just fart. I never hear it. But she's never fart in front of me. And I kind of wish she did. Yeah? I kind of do, but also, it's pretty nice to have a girlfriend who just never farts. But hold on. Why do you wish she did?
Starting point is 00:05:16 Because then I'm just like, oh, you can be so open with me. She goes, nah, but I'd never fart around you. This is my point that I'd love to bring up is I think you can't truly feel 100% comfortable around someone until you break the ice and you fart. But then like, don't go at it though. Well, me and my partner, Jake, like we broke that ice early doors. You just get it over and done with. He's heard me fart so many.
Starting point is 00:05:39 We play fart titters sometimes. Like, it's very open door. You see that? Steph, I love you. And your partner? I don't think that's okay. That's too far for me. Sam, thoughts?
Starting point is 00:05:48 I don't like it. Nah, I understand that it would be so freeing to do that. But I cannot help when someone else farts out loud thing, oh, yuck, like it just puts me off. Do you fart, Sam? I do fart. Yuck. Oh, whatever.
Starting point is 00:06:03 But no, in front of you. Have you ever heard it? Never. I don't know. Well, we would love to know on 0,800 the edge. Let's settle this once and for all. Do you fart in your relationship? Is that what we're doing?
Starting point is 00:06:16 I want to know where the consensus is because I reckon it's the absolute key to a healthy and happy relationship. You have to be able to be 100% comfortable and fart in front of each other. Your Arvo's Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Fart chat. I do apologise. But it's science.
Starting point is 00:06:33 According to science, apparently farting in front of each other if you're in a relationship can create a happier and healthier one. Yeah. And if you knew around here on The Edge Harvars, we always do fart Fridays. We always have fart chat on Fridays. We do. And it's also tradition to end the show. So you have to wait all the way through until 7 o'clock for a live fart. For a fart off.
Starting point is 00:06:51 It's your turn today, actually. Is it? Yeah. Main. So let's read out some text. question that we want to know is do you or do you not think it is acceptable to fart in front of each other in a
Starting point is 00:07:02 relationship? Yeah. I mean the girl from five years, never heard her fart once. Yeah, whereas I'm a big big advocate for this. I think it's very important. Very important. We've got some crazy texts here. Absolutely fart in front of my partner. One leg up and shake that bad boy at the
Starting point is 00:07:17 same time. Okay. Yes, you got my text. Not at first but a month and I relaxed and let one rip. then you would get cheeky and fart in his hand. Okay, this is crazy. Yeah, that's an interesting one.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Brooks said absolutely have to be able to fart in front of your partner. Are you going to go the rest of your life with this person, never farting? Exactly. And I do know that some people are a little bit more gassy than others. And so you don't want to sit in your lounge watching a movie to get there with a sore tummy. You know, you do it. Someone said, yeah, it's so unhealthy if you don't. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:48 It's normal body stuff. Yeah. It gives you anxiety if you don't fart, stomach issues. And someone said, being together for 10 years, married, never and far in front of each other. I feel like... That's crazy! This feedback is exactly what I thought it would be.
Starting point is 00:08:02 It's two opposite ends of the spectrum. It's no way I'd never ever do that, not one time ever. And in the other end, like my end, it's like, well, we do fart tennis. We're just a more in middle people. Shorna, welcome to the show on 0800 the edge. Where do you lie on the spectrum of farting in front of each other? Hey guys, I 100% agree. it is acceptable to
Starting point is 00:08:25 fight in a relationship. Like me and my husband have been together for eight years and he's seen me have a baby. You know, there's a lot of closed doors that get opened when you're together with the person that you want to be forever.
Starting point is 00:08:41 That's true. You know, I feel like getting, you know, a little bit deep on it. I love it. Do you, I don't know this answer. Do you fight when you give birth? Yeah, sometimes, you do a little bit worse as well.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Harrison, if you're having a vaginal birth, a lot of the time, you don't know what you're pushing. You just feel the urge to push. Exactly. And something else might pop out other than a baby. No, literally. Real, whoa. You were probably a little bit of poo was on you when you came out.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Really? Probably. God, dated. Day to me. 100%. Yeah, exactly. Thank you, Sean. Great feedback.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Rebecca from Turong is here. Welcome. Welcome. Hi. Now, Bex is a little bit nervous to share your tail, aren't you, Bex? Go ahead. Yeah. I totally agree it's okay to fart in front of your partner.
Starting point is 00:09:37 And I would hate to think what it's like to try and have to hide it or to try and have to leave the room quickly every time you want to fart. I couldn't do it. No way. And what are you and your partner do, Rebecca? So we go the extra step, I guess. And we will even leave the door open when we go number two. And it's nothing to us.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Why do you get the door open, Biggs? Why? Because the way the bathroom is, the bathroom, you have to go through the bathroom to go to the toilet anyway. So one's in the shower. The other one needs to go to number two. It ain't no thing. How often are you both showering and doing the toilet at the same time, though?
Starting point is 00:10:19 I feel like you should just be able to shut the door all the time. Sounds fun. I don't know. That's fun. Seven years. We've been together seven years. It's been a few times. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:27 Wow. Let the banter just flow, among other things. God, does you don't know, use a door for what it's for? To open and shut. Yeah, shut it. Hey, I love your honesty, Rebecca. Maybe we can all go through into the long weekend and maybe dabble in stuff. We haven't tried before, Harrison.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Maybe you could try it. Nah, I'm more good with that stuff. Yeah, okay, actually, yeah, fair enough. Yeah. Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Oh, I know. that times are stressful.
Starting point is 00:10:55 I know that people are going through a lot right now, especially in this country, with the storms and everything. That's true. And Kea Khat, everybody out there. Oh, he's changed adjourn since yesterday. What was yesterday? I won't repeat the words you said. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Well, I just, I went home to a bit of research. Actually, pretty serious. Yeah, pretty serious. Don't joke about it, guys. But get your car, everybody out there, stay strong. But bigger news, what is Group 7? TikTok. Heard of it, Steph?
Starting point is 00:11:21 TikTok? Yeah. Yeah, I've heard of it. Both TikTok and Group 7. Pretty bit. You've heard of Group 7, eh? Oh, yeah, it's all over my feed. It's like, you've got some audio.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Show us some examples. Yes, random people just doing kind of videos that sound like this. It don't fully make any sense. This is a question for anyone in Group 7. If you're not in Group 7, don't answer. Where do I take my next bite? I feel like you guys would know the answer. Should I go up here?
Starting point is 00:11:46 Just pinpointing a group, and it's Group 7, like this one. Hey guys, this message is, for Group 7 and Group 7 only. Good morning, Group 7. Hope you have a wonderful day. I want to be in Group 7. I don't know if I'm in it or not. And I'll admit, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:12:07 Steve, producer, Nurse Sam, you could consider me a TikToker maybe, right? Yeah, 100%. Don't you have, like, hundreds of thousands of followers on TikTok? Yeah, I'm a TikToker. I don't even know what Group 7 is. I'm pretty out to date with the trends. I don't get this trends.
Starting point is 00:12:21 and I just feel like I'm pretty left out. I've got a bit of fomo about it. Well, what do you think it could be? Because I actually know what group seven is. Do you know what it is? Yeah, 100% I know what it is. Nah, do you do? I know.
Starting point is 00:12:35 No, I don't. What do you think it is? Well, like, off those clips, I reckon it's like people are getting grouped into like different kinds of groups. Yeah, is it like a ranking system? Like if you're in group seven, you're actually in group number one. Like they're trying to be like, oh, like, Group one's always the best, but now they're like we're being alternative. We've got to group seven.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Maybe. Maybe it's like a quiz. Like you do a quiz and then you end up being a group one, two, three, four and, or whatever. And then group sevens think they're better than us or something. Yeah, seven like a lucky number. Like if you're in group seven, you are lucky? Like who is texting three, three, four. Are you in group seven?
Starting point is 00:13:08 People have texted. Harrison, I think you're group seven. I'm group seven. Yeah. Okay, Zara's in group seven. Samantha is Alika's. They're in group seven. But how are we, is Sam, are you in group seven?
Starting point is 00:13:18 I don't even know what group I meant. Like I don't even know how to know what group I'm in. Sam, I mean, Steph, is Sam in group seven or not? Have you seen the TikTok videos about group seven? I've seen people, what you've just played, I've heard all that. So I see people talking about groups. Yeah, but are they on your algorithm? Those ones.
Starting point is 00:13:37 Yeah. Yeah, then yeah, you're in group. Oh, okay, okay. So we've both got white skin. We all do. There's not anything to do with that. Nothing to do with that? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:13:49 We're both cool. We are both cool. Definitely not anything to do with that. We're both working radio, but not everyone works on radio is in Group 7. No, definitely not. No. Heaps of people texting and saying they're in Group 7. I'm in Group 7.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Generation. Is it like a generational thing? No, because I'm way younger than you producing. Oh, yeah. Oh, well. Okay. Sorry. Well, relax.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Sorry, I'm just getting a bit worked out of what Group 7 is. Do you want me to just tell you? No, one more guess each. I really want to get it Okay Seven Seven We all
Starting point is 00:14:26 Everybody used to go to bed at seven No Oh yeah like a 7pm or a 7am or a 7 am like you wake up And you wake up at 7 Are you in group 7? Yeah Harrison you don't go to sleep at 7 or wake up at 7 So no
Starting point is 00:14:39 I used to though No So anyone who used to is in that group No Can I just tell you this is annoying me now Okay go Okay guys Group 7
Starting point is 00:14:48 is a singer by the name of, what was her name? Sophia James put out seven different videos, one about, hey, group one, you're in group one, whoo, group one, the next one, group two, etc., until group seven. This is all to promote her song, which is called So Unfair, doesn't matter, but she did this as a marketing strategy,
Starting point is 00:15:10 so she was seeing which video could take off, and it just happened to be Group seven's video. And so everyone just kind of like piled in on the gag, and that's what group seven is. It's kind of a bit of nothing. Some girl just put up seven videos. The seventh one went viral and now everyone's just in on a bit of a in joke. It kind of means nothing.
Starting point is 00:15:32 And if you see the videos on your TikTok, you're like a part of group seven, but it's like you're kind of a part of nothing. It's just a viral thing that's... It's just a joke. It's just a gag, yeah. It means totally nothing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:44 I really want to be in it though. You are in it. I don't think I am. Again, I want to be in group seven. Your Avos hit harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. The Edge. Who is the best juggler on the show? We're about to find that out.
Starting point is 00:15:57 We do a thing every afternoon called Arvo, Polo. Polo, which is a daily poll. It changes every day. And we can challenge whatever poll results we're unhappy with on a Friday. And I was deeply distraught about Monday's results. People thought I was the worst juggler on the show. Even Sean bet me who's away today.
Starting point is 00:16:15 Yeah, but see, you've got also I won. but you've got to put us in a line up. Put us the line up. Don't anything about us who looks like the juggle. Yeah, that works. Yeah, true. Look at me. That's true.
Starting point is 00:16:24 I look like the circus. So right now, we have an audience. Hi, audience. And we have Josh from the office. Settle down, girls. Now, Josh, how much juggling experience do you have? I'm an only child, so I had a lot of spare time when I was a kid. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:16:41 So, yeah, I like to think I can juggle pretty well. And so Josh has supplied some balls. Loll. But they're pointy balls. They're not juggling balls. No, they're NZ blood balls. So shout out to the NZ blood. So we're going to juggle blood balls.
Starting point is 00:16:55 They're quite light. They're made of foam. It's like a beauty blender. It's like a beauty blender shape. You're so right, Josh. Blood balls sound so bad. Josh's got blood balls, guys. So Josh and judging committee,
Starting point is 00:17:07 we're looking for a list of criteria when it comes to juggling. We're looking at time spent juggling. So time spent with balls in the air. TSJ. We're looking at technique, we're looking at composure, we're just looking for overall best juggling vibes really, aren't we? Vibes. Mostly vibes. Mostly vibes.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Who looks like they're the best juggler? Okay. Okay, yeah, got it. Who's up? Who's up? Should we want Josh to demonstrate just so we get it? I know, just for you, Steve, just to get in our heads of what juggling is? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, sure.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Give us a go, mate. Wow. Oh, that's good. Oh, wow. It's a one hand. Okay, it's down. Okay. That was good technique, though.
Starting point is 00:17:46 Yeah, yeah. That was very good technique. Producer Nurse Sam on the stopwatch. Sorry, we've got Jamie. Jamie on the stopwatch. We're videoing it as well for stories in a sec. Am I going first? You're going first, Steph. This is on you.
Starting point is 00:17:58 All right. I'm going to take the beauty shape to balls. Steph, his hands are full of blood balls. I'm just going to move to that side of the room just for space. Yeah, for space. All right. She's moving to the centre of the stage. She's got three blood balls in her hands.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Let's count Steph down, guys. Three. To juggle! Ooh, pretty good. A lot of movement. She's lost a ball. She lost a plug ball straight away. That wasn't good.
Starting point is 00:18:26 You dropped the ball and you're begging for another turn. Three, two, one. Juggle. Oh, oh, she's just putting them onto her chest and then, okay, interesting. She puts it onto her chest and then picks it up. Okay, okay, this is, she moves a lot around the room. Oh, she did, John. Oh, there goes.
Starting point is 00:18:44 She's broken the TV. Okay, that was pretty good. All right, what was that time, please, Jammu? I felt like three minutes, damn it. But you did have a second go. It's interesting. I'm not going to need a second. Now, Harrison, just before we get into you,
Starting point is 00:18:59 what's your history with juggling? I don't want to tell you. Tell the people, come on. They deserve to know. Okay, true story. This is no joke. I was in a circus show, and then I had to juggle for three months.
Starting point is 00:19:10 I had to juggle to see if I'd like to keep my place in the show, and I was so bad they kicked me out of the circus show. Good luck, men. Here we go. Yeah, let's drop Big 13. We got this, Harrison. Ready? Slow clip, please.
Starting point is 00:19:26 He's getting the audience behind him. Three, two, one, go, juggle. All right, balls in the air, balls in the air. He's down. It's down. It's not still going. It's not still going, Jay. It's not stopped that one.
Starting point is 00:19:40 They're still up. I haven't dropped any. He's dropped all of them. Okay, time. Okay, okay. Now please, Judge Josh, please. Now is your time to think back at the Juggling you've just witnessed.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Because it doesn't come down to just the time. It's all the other criteria. Time spent juggling, overall vibes and pizzazz. I think that was a criteria, wasn't it? Well, Steph, you had a real interesting technique where you were kind of like juggling the balls the wrong way, but, like, towards you. But you still had a good rhythm and you were juggling.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Thank you, Josh. Thank you, Dr. I'm sorry. You know when, like, a kid is, like, trying to attempt something and they think they're doing it and, like, everyone wants to celebrate them doing it. That's kind of how, like, you were when you were juggling. But you tried your best, and it looked like you were,
Starting point is 00:20:25 juggling. I'm going to have to give it to Steph because she had that like to me. Yay! Josh? Josh? Get out. No, Josh.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Stay forever. I love you. Thank you. No, get out, Josh. Thank you, New Zealand. Thanks, guys. And, geez, it's fantastic to juggle some balls in front of everybody.
Starting point is 00:20:47 So now everyone knows how good I am. Feel cool? A clown. I'm so good. Wait. You're a clown now. Good on you. Well, don't.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Congrats. Your Arvos Head Harder with Sean, Steph and Harrison. Steph, we have got an awesome, exciting opportunity coming up next week. Next Wednesday, probably my favourite thing we've had on the show. We're going back home, baby. My home, Hawks Bay. Are you excited?
Starting point is 00:21:16 I am excited. Yeah, yeah, I am. I have never been to Napier, but never really explored more than that. Sorry, when I think of Napier, I think of two things. I think of the fact that I didn't realize you're not allowed to swim in the ocean there, and I did. Did you? Yeah. Jeez,
Starting point is 00:21:30 don't swim in the ocean. Rips you right out. And the other thing is, this is so crazy, this is where my mind went first. We did a road trip a few years back and I took my dog and he hadn't gone toilet for days
Starting point is 00:21:43 until we got to Napier. And I've never seen a poo as big as that one on the footpath in CBD Napier. Sweet as. So yeah, that's kind of where my mind went. But we've gone to Hastings. We're going to Hastings.
Starting point is 00:21:58 We're going to Hastings. My hotel, The Stings, as they call it. The Sting? Oh, the older people do, but it's just called the Haystings. But it's going to be so much fun. We're going to have for Subway. We're going to be there on Wednesday. A few things we need to try, okay?
Starting point is 00:22:11 Cool's chicken and chips. Okay. Lantin-light dairy. Okay. The best hot chips in New Zealand. I go on about this. Well, hold on. What's their pick-a-mix like?
Starting point is 00:22:20 Do they have a dollar? Do they have a dollar bag? They have a dollar bags? Okay, well, good. Yeah. So what I want to send the dairy. The best chips in the world, Cool's chips. We're also going to get BJs.
Starting point is 00:22:29 So we're going to get BJs. So I'm going to your hometown and I'm going to get a BJ. No, you've got to get BJs. I'm going to get BJs. You need BJs. Several? Yeah, it's a bakery. Oh.
Starting point is 00:22:41 BJ's bakery. Yeah. So you're going to get a sausage? No, you're going to get a meatball. Okay. A meatball. Oh, my God. A crusted ball of meat.
Starting point is 00:22:49 I've heard about this. Now, people in the Hawks Bay, I don't think, realize that this isn't a nationwide thing. Like the deep-fried meatballs. I didn't know until they came. came here and talked about it to you guys and you're like, what is that? What is that? So that's iconic. Also, we're going to drink some wine.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Okay, great. Yeah, great place for wine. Sign me up. But also when we're there, we're going to visit my old school. Okay. Shout out to Karamu High School. Shout out. We're going there on Wednesday to hand out some subways two years.
Starting point is 00:23:18 And I was thinking, like, where do you want to go here? I'm like, oh, my old high school. Then have you a favorite teacher? I was like, yeah, I had a favorite teacher. Who was your favorite teacher? Should I say her name? Yeah, I will. Her name was Miss Cooper.
Starting point is 00:23:31 Shout out. Shout out Miss Cooper. She's ever got a cool name. I used to call her Cooper's Cooper. Of course you do. Cool, I. She hated it. But do you know why she was a cool teacher, Steph?
Starting point is 00:23:40 Because I used to study music with her. Oh, you did music? Yeah, that's what everyone's reaction is. You'd think you'd be more musical? Yeah, I thought you'd do anything musical. I was like, I didn't. I went to Miss Cooper's class, and I signed up for music. And we just got along really well.
Starting point is 00:23:56 We just chat because we should also do like local theatre together. That is so you. I know. You're such a chatterbox. Yep. And she used to be like the music person
Starting point is 00:24:04 or the local theatre shows. Yeah. You know, she'd train us how to sing and everything. Yeah. And so I just got like close with this. I just chatter her off. I'm like, hey, Miss Cooper,
Starting point is 00:24:12 do you reckon I can sign up to this class and just do nothing? And we'll just like chat. And we can just like hang out. I don't know if she's allowed to say this. Sure, it's fine. But she was like, yeah, absolutely. Like just do it.
Starting point is 00:24:23 And I'd be like, but you know, when it does come to exam, end of the year, you're going to fail all of them because you won't know anything. I'm like, who cares? I don't need, I don't need marks. I'm not going to do music when I'm older. Oh my God, that would freak me out. So I literally every year, I walk in, the principal walking and I pretend I'm working in paper
Starting point is 00:24:38 or something, I pick up a guitar, be holding it backwards. I've known how to do. And everyone just knew, like, Harrison just sits in here and does nothing. Wow. Or I just like, I practice like my dance or I write scripts for media studies. I just would never do music. But I loved Ms. Cooper, because she always in my back and she's always like, oh, yeah, just come chill out.
Starting point is 00:24:55 You don't have to do any class. Producer Nurse Sam's got a hand up. You also went to a school with a teacher who had your back. What did your teacher do? Yes, I had a math teacher, and she used to let me go to netball. I pretended I was part of the netball team, and on Fridays all the netball girls got to leave, like, half an hour earlier than, you know, school finished. And so at first I pretended with my friend that we were a netball,
Starting point is 00:25:17 and we always had to leave whenever maths ended on, you know, that day. And then eventually the teacher caught on, but she, like, wasn't on the gag, and would let us go, she would remind us like the netball ball would go and she'd be like girls, onto netball and we're like Oh my god, my God, a girl's time to leave class earlier.

Starting point is 00:26:24 that you just bond with and get along with that makes school just that much better. That's why teachers are so important and this is why we should be giving them proper work environments that they can thrive in and better pay because they're so influential in all of our lives. Yeah, and Alex, I struggled really badly with mental health in high school.
Starting point is 00:26:40 There's one teacher that after I had taken some of that time off and come back to school allowed me to get all of my coursework and sit in his classroom with them. Oh, yay, Alex. That's really nice. Teachers are the best. I won't read that next room. Should I read it?
