This is a podcast from Rover.
The Edge Breakfast 2025.
New year, new hit.
And bouncing off the Sky Tower, new transmitter.
Oh, well, it's a bit of a shitter.
Give it a kick, Daryl.
It's alive! It's alive!
Alive!
This is The Edge Breakfast with Clint, Meg and Dan.
Good morning.
It's one to six.
Welcome to the show, Friday Eve.
Who's the grumpiest?
Oh, now Dan's been grumpy this morning.
I got a ride in with him
I thought I was
quite chipper
in that ride in
and Megan and I
called an Uber
we had a good chat
I was very chipper
as soon as you came in
you were like
where's my laptop
yeah well someone's
taken my laptop
the diva breakfast
announcer comes in
I'm like I need my
laptop and my coffee
gone are the days
that Dan used to be
a producer
and he'd just
happy go lucky yeah sweet ass no I was still a prick even then actually I Topping my coffee. Gone are the days that Dan used to be a producer and he'd just happy-go-lucky.
Yeah, sweet as.
No, I was still a prick even then.
Actually, I'll tell you something,
what happened in the Uber,
coming up next in Coffee Catch-Up,
if you like, Clint.
Okay.
In fact, we're lucky Clint's even here, Meg.
He's just spent about 10 minutes on the toilet
because he's got quote-unquote crook guts.
And I'm sharing a room with him.
I'm sharing a room with him in Christchurch for Electric Ave.
Which I'm thankful for, Dan,
because, yeah,
we leave for Christchurch
midday today.
Just knowing I've got someone
in the room with me
just to help me
and, like,
bear my beck and call.
How do I help you
when you've got a crook gut?
I don't know.
Whatever I need,
you'll be right there to help.
Toilet paper.
A wet flannel on my forehead.
I don't know how it might transpire.
I hope it's the same hotel as when we shared
and you guys could look at each other with the glass toilet.
Oh, so that one.
No, I wish.
Oh, yeah.
We stayed in like a honeymoon suite or something.
It was literally a glass wall between the bedroom and the bathroom.
Even when I'm on a honeymoon, I don't want to see my wife crap.
Yeah.
It's a really odd decision.
Throwing the illusion straight out the gate.
You're probably in the majority there, I'd imagine.
Clint, Meg and Dan on the edge.
Me and Dan live quite close to each other.
I think you are going to move.
Makes me very sad.
But in the meantime, we can share Ubers when we need to.
Dan picked me up.
He's further out, so he gets the Uber and comes around to my house.
Was lovely.
Actually met me down the driveway
and took my bag.
I am pregnant, if you don't know,
and it's quite a big bag.
Sounding very gentlemanly so far,
isn't it?
It's good, it's good.
I was like, this is really nice.
To be fair, he didn't say,
give me your bag.
I said, can you hold my bag?
And I went, okay.
And I was like, well, why are you here? I don't know why you'd meet me down the driveway if you're not going to take my bag. I said, can you hold my bag? And I went, oh, okay. And I was like, well, why are you here?
I don't know why you'd meet me down the driveway
if you're not going to take my bag.
It's like very odd.
Anyway, I get to the door.
We put my bag in the boot.
I get to the door and he goes, no, that's my seat.
And I was like, all good.
And I thought, oh.
Oh, behind the driver?
Yeah, there's always the most room.
They slide their seat for all.
Oh, that's the thing.
He said, oh, it's just about foot space.
And I was like, oh, that's lovely.
He's given the pregnant lady the most space.
Nope, I opened my door, and there was about an inch gap
for my legs to fit in and my big baby belly.
And Dan had the passenger seat where the seat had literally been moved
so far forward, nobody could sit in the front.
They call it leg room, not belly room.
Sorry, you're the passenger side.
Because if no one sits in the front,, generally, with an Uber, they just
ramp it as far forward into the dash
as possible. Yeah, that's exactly what happened. So Dan was
in premium economy.
I was stretched out. And I'll tell you what,
Meg's belly had plenty of room.
It was her legs that didn't have much. My legs, I had to, like,
share his room. I had to turn sideways
at the car. So the gentleman, like, what happened?
So you switched the gentleman switch
up at about 30 seconds. Well, he didn't take my bag, to be fair.
Yeah, and I don't know much about the human body,
but I don't think the legs have much to do with the pregnancy,
if I'm honest. Why would you
get it over me?
Oh, I got in the Uber first,
first of all. So that's like shotgun rule
that gets the best seat.
Second of all, I didn't realise
that you needed leg room. I just can't
believe, I just, I would have thought, Clint, him saying that.
Over 60?
Over 60 and pregnant, I think, take priority.
Well, it's like a general rule that you stand up for the pregnant woman.
It's like the cool thing that we get normally is car parks
and people stand up for you on public transport.
There's even a show on Netflix with Amy Schumer
where I think she's pretending
to be pregnant
because everyone is treating her
better than she's ever been
treated before.
Not with Dan.
She hasn't met Dan, obviously.
I think pregnant women
should be treated equal, Clint.
Thank you.
I can't believe how quick
he was to say it
to the point that I thought,
oh, he's giving me the better seat.
He's like, don't sit there, man.
How many seconds did that last for?
Oh, by the time I walked around to the other door and I noticed, I had just squished it
sideways.
I went, psych.
Clint, Meg and Dan on the edge.
It's very competitive.
We ask you a question.
We try to assume your answer and see who can get closest to your actual answer and what it would be.
And whoever wins gets a point and we mark it on the wall.
It's currently four all, isn't it?
Well, to me and Meg, yeah.
No, because Carl's still forgotten to put my point on there from yesterday.
Oh, okay.
It looks like I'm trailing behind on three.
Yeah.
That is sad for you.
I know.
That's going to wind you up even more.
Don't need that energy this morning, Clinton.
I know.
We've got Ella who is playing along.
Hi, Ella.
Ella is a media marketing volleyballist.
What?
A volleyballist?
I don't think that's right.
You don't market volleyball as a sport
or you work in media marketing and you play volleyball?
I work in media marketing with volleyball.
Okay.
Oh,
so that's right.
Yeah.
And is a volleyball player
called a volleyballist
out of interest?
A volleyballer.
Dan,
remember our radio coach said,
when you say something,
think,
now did that add anything
to the conversation?
Yes.
Didn't, did it?
I don't think so.
Yeah.
Meg said it.
She's currently driving
from Auckland to Whakatane
for beach tour,
which I'm guessing
has something to do
with volleyball?
Yeah, so we've,
by the way,
we're on Whakatane
to Auckland,
so we've got our
national beach tour
on at the moment
and we've got a few
of our international athletes
who have arrived early,
so going up
to welcome them on.
Okay.
My question for Ella is to do with her job this morning then, boys.
Okay.
Ella, I'm going to ask you a question.
You have to think about your answer.
We'll see how close we get to answering it for you.
How far a distance has Ella travelled with her job as a media marketing volleyballer?
You know, so has she gone overseas?
And if she has, how far has she gone?
Are we talking just one trip
or in total like?
No,
just the place,
I guess the furthest place
that she's gone.
we're going to work out
how many K's she's done
in her career.
How many air points she's got.
Yeah,
I don't know if she'll even know.
I'm going to say
that she has travelled,
I think it's going to be pretty far,
I'm going to say Japan.
Japan for volleyball.
Japan?
I know that seems a bit random
but sometimes they have random places
for like championships and stuff. Japan might be big on volleyball. Yeah, okay, let bit random, but sometimes they have random places for championships and stuff.
Japan might be big on volleyball.
You can answer this part, Ella.
Is Japan known as being quite good in the volleyball world?
Oh, huge.
Absolutely huge.
Very huge.
So there is potential, Meg, that Ella could have gone there.
Okay, what do you reckon, Dan?
I reckon she's gone to South Africa, another big volleyball nation.
Really?
Quite often have beaten us in volleyball. Really? So I think she's gone to South Africa, another big volleyball nation. Really? Quite often have beaten us in volleyball.
Really?
So I think she's gone to South Africa for it, yeah.
Wow.
Okay, I feel like an easy point is just to say that she's stayed put
and hasn't gone outside New Zealand.
But I will go as far as Aussie.
Okay.
So if she hasn't gone outside of New Zealand with volleyball,
I think we all lose.
I won't take the win because I'm closer.
Okay.
I'm going to say Australia.
Like it's still an overseas trip, but it doesn't feel as exotic.
So, South Africa, Japan or Aussie, closest answer, Ella?
The closest answer, Australia.
Oh, he's done it.
Oh, wait, but does that mean you haven't left New Zealand?
Well, I have left New Zealand, so, yeah.
I, yeah, go over to Aussie, but love to do Japan.
Haven't quite cracked that yet.
Okay, okay, but you have been to Australia for volleyball things.
Yes, Australia for volleyball.
Yeah, well done.
Clint does win that point.
Well done.
You've got a cool job, though, just traveling around beaches and stuff and playing volleyball.
That would be cool. How good? How've got a cool job, though, just traveling around beaches and stuff and playing volleyball.
That would be cool.
How good?
How long have you been doing it for, Ella?
I've been doing it for over a year now, but yeah, absolutely loving it.
Very lucky.
Very cool community to work in.
Who's the current number one nation for volleyball?
Well, we just have to look at the states.
They're resourcing that they've got, but we've got a couple of the USA National Men's Team coming over to play in our competition this weekend,
so, yeah, it's awesome.
Awesome. Good on you.
Well, we appreciate you calling us nice and early this morning.
I like to be a stranger.
We'll sort you out with a voucher to go spend in Zed.
Chill vibes only at Zed with our new Barista Made Chill drinks.
It's $6.50, so enjoy.
Clint, Meg and Dan
on the edge
alright
Married at First Sight Australia
who's in
you should be up to date
I suppose
with it going Sunday
through to Wednesday
we're three weeks in
and Meg does a really cool thing
maths in a minute
with States
and
three
and three now
yeah it's just
once a week
I kind of wrap it all up
within a minute
if that
yeah that makes sense
so that if you have missed
any episodes
you kind of know like oh wait that's right what if that makes sense, so that if you have missed any episodes, you kind of know, like, oh, wait, that's right,
what are we watching again next week?
And this was the big talk of this week.
Take a listen.
And to be safe, we've got things hot and heavy for our couples,
though not everyone seemed to grasp its purpose,
with Ryan dropping an intimate bombshell about his bride
that we've had to bleep out.
I've got to say, like, she gives awesome...
I've just got to say, like, that's...
F***ing hell. So this all came to a head
at the second
dinner party
with the other
grooms pulling
Ryan up on it
causing Jackie
to momentarily
head out
meanwhile Athena
shared her doubts
about only having
a physical connection
with Adrian
while Sierra
lamented not having
one at all
with Billy
here's to hoping
that both the couples
find a solution
that definitely
doesn't involve
any sort of infidelity
and that's when they had a little moment
where you could see them playing footsies under the table.
What's she saying about she's giving an amazing what?
Muffins.
Yeah.
That's a good muffin, does she?
Blueberry.
Blueberry muffin, yeah.
So I am actually up to date
with the exception of last night's episode,
so I'm not sure what her reaction was,
but I feel like he thought it was quite a compliment.
Like telling the boys, she's really good at that.
Don't think you talk about that with the lad.
Like you should not.
If rumours started going around that you were good at a specific thing,
like an intimate bedroom type thing.
It is funny because like, if it was, it's a weird thing
because it is like really like demeaning.
You just feel like, especially, the problem was,
it wasn't just like, she's amazing, she's so intelligent and funny,
and she makes good muffins, right?
And even if, and I'm talking if this wasn't on television,
I think it's gross because family are watching and stuff.
But if that was just through guys, just my husband,
guy has just met me, he's talking to his friends,
he's like, wow, I've met this amazing girl.
She's funny and smart and cool.
She also happens to make good muffins.
Great muffins, yeah.
And maybe I could get past that,
but he gave an insult and then that.
It was like, she has crazy eyes,
but she makes good muffins.
And that was where I found it really demeaning.
I find it.
I mean, it is altogether,
but do you know what I mean?
If you're placing it of like,
wow, this was the perfect woman,
and they have a little bit of that.
And I get the TV aspect as well
because you're right,
sharing it with three of your close mates
and even though it feels a bit locker chat
and whatever,
there is a difference between that
and you do have to be on your best behaviour,
I think,
when you realise that everyone
in the whole country is watching it.
It's really locker room chat,
I think,
when you're insulting
and then saying something sexual
because I can't deny that if I'm
with three of my girlfriends, right,
privately, and I'm
dating a new person, and I'm like,
he's great, he's amazing, and
we have really good sex.
That, to me, is, I think
you'd find it, I mean, maybe I've just got an open group
of girlfriends, but I think you find it hard
for people to not admit that if they're chatting to their
best friends quietly, they might bring that up and be like, wow, it's all great, everything's great. But he didn you find it hard for people to not admit that if they're chatting to their best friends quietly, they might bring
that up and be like, wow, it's all great. Everything's great.
But he didn't do that. He
demeaned her by insulting her and
did it on telly. Yeah, I think it's different
to say we have really good sex and then
she gives really good. Yeah, I agree.
That's demeaning to me. I'm still giving
far too much, I think, leeway there for him.
I don't know who's more delusional.
Him or her, though.
Because she's so, like, some of the stuff that comes out of her mouth,
and then I'm like, oh, she's more delusional.
And then she'll be like, I just want you to say
that I'm the most beautiful woman in the world.
And he goes, well, that would be a lie.
Isn't that awful?
Well, now you're more, like, delusional or crazy or just,
because I'm like, which one of you is more, what's the word?
Delusional's not even right, but like fake.
It's almost like you're not a real person.
Right.
Because normal people don't behave and act like.
Don't be like that.
Let's be honest.
They're all on a reality TV dating show.
They're all crazy as hell.
Also, Lisa said come to a head at the dinner party.
Nice one, Meg.
Thank you.
Did you do that on purpose?
Oh, that was.
Because that was very smart of you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You got that.
Yeah.
Well done.
Nothing to do with muffins there.
Yeah, no.
No, no.
I do like a blueberry one, though.
He's definitely painting between the lines.
Yeah, it's one of those things that I was like,
oh, I'm not going to get into because it's a big commitment,
but I'm very much locked in now.
Now he's hooked.
Yeah.
Now it's now.
And again, what I can tell you is that it only gets better.
Yeah.
I keep seeing videos online, because obviously Australia,
frustratingly, is a week in front of us,
of all these extra people that are now on the show.
Then I'm like, wait, who the hell is she and who's he?
There are new weddings to come, yep.
Wow, because everyone is bailing and leaving the experiment
when contractually I think they're not allowed to.
What are you going to do?
Make someone stay in these day and age with mental health?
I don't think you can actually do that as a TV show.
Some people do come back with new...
Oh, I bet they do.
...grooms or brides.
Oh, I bet they do.
Clint, Meg and Dan on the Edge.
Daughter was pretty upset when I picked her up from school yesterday.
Yeah, she said she didn't have the best day.
I said, oh, what's going on?
She goes...
Because people at school Googled what my name meant.
And in that moment, I was like, damn it.
I never did that when I named my daughter Cameron.
What does Cameron mean?
Okay, I'm looking it up now.
Ooh. Yeah.
I know.
And now all my friends are calling her it at school.
What does it mean? Oh, it's worse than you think, Dan.
Whatever you think it is, it's not great.
So Cameron,
it's original origin, think, Dan. Whatever you think it is, it's not great. So Cameron, its original origin, sorry, is Scottish.
And the meaning, because I think other names are like brave woman.
I know. Or like beautiful flower.
Yeah, because Cameron can be a boy's name too, can't it?
Yeah.
Okay, the Scottish name means crooked nose.
Oh, who put that meaning behind the name?
What's the word?
I guess that's what it translates to.
So I laughed because I was like, oh, it's kind of funny.
It's not the worst thing ever, but it's not great.
And then I just saw her eyes get all glassy,
and then the little tears start running down the cheeks,
and I'm like, oh, okay, I've tears start running down the cheeks and I'm like,
oh, okay,
I've reacted wrong
in this moment.
And I'm like,
babe, that's fine.
I was like,
well, why don't we
Google their names
and find out what
their names mean.
Let's fight fire with fire.
Not a great thing
for a dad to do,
by the way.
She goes,
no, we did.
And theirs all meant
like warrior and stuff.
Yeah, yeah,
a lot of names.
Because I,
obviously, again,
am looking up names
at the moment a lot
and lots of them
seem to be warrior,
brave or,
but look, you could do this Clint
I also looked up what does the name Cameron mean
in personality and it means
spontaneity, creativity, exuberance
you appreciate people
make friends easily and look for the best in others
you're optimist and kindness
and kindness are infectious and you strive to make
others happy. I tried to find that when I was
in the car. Thank you because I just
kept looking up and everyone was like crooked nose crooked nose crooked nose it's just like everyone just keeps
calling me crooked noise and that sounds just like your daughter and i said right well let's
find out what ties mean like my son he's eight and his name's ty that's his full name right it's not
short short for tyson or anything it's not just ty he's oneY. He's one of the first to spell his name in his class.
I thought he might be the first, but he might.
I looked it up.
No, no.
His means Tyler of roofs.
Oh, yeah.
That's crooked nose and Tyler of roofs.
So one's a roof Tyler and the other's got a crooked nose.
So I really didn't look up the meaning.
So they were both pretty bummed out by the time we'd left.
I just looked up Megan.
I looked up Dan.
Interesting.
What is mine?
No, you go first.
What does Dan mean?
God is my judge.
Exactly.
Yes, very biblical name, mine.
Mine's still pretty crap.
Mine means town on a hill.
And Megan, I don't know if this is the original meaning,
but it just says here,
Megan dash smelly pirate hooker.
Oh, shut up, Dan. You dumb, dumb, stupid man. Way worse than crooked nose, you smelly pirate hooker. Oh, shut up, Dan. You dumb
dumb stupid man. Oh, that's way worse
than crooked nose. It's smelly pirate crooked nose.
Make you feel better.
Is Megan a smelly pirate hooker
majority of the time? No.
No. No. Sometimes
maybe. If you have no idea what the
meaning of your name is, you want us to look it up for you?
Flickr's text will give us a call.
It means Pearl.
Yeah, but then the next line,
smelly pirate hooker.
Clint, Meg and Dan
on the edge.
But if you loved a name
and you guys were,
oh my God,
we're assessing the name
and you looked up
and had a really crap meaning,
you wouldn't change it,
would you?
Probably.
Would you?
Oh, maybe.
I would be worried,
especially after this experience
of my young twe, you know,
young tween daughter or son probably finding out and then just getting bullied for it for no reason.
Yeah, I'm hoping the crooked nose thing doesn't last much longer than this week.
There's always something you can find to bully someone about.
Exactly.
All right, so I've got some names here that are kind of some of the worst names.
They're great names, they're beautiful names, but the meanings of them you may not know.
You can text her as well your name and we can see
if we can do a quick Google
and find out.
Okay, so if you know
one called Cecily,
that means blind.
So Cornelia means horn.
Courtney means short nose.
Deirdre, sorrowful.
Would you rather have
a short nose or a crooked one?
Emilia, rival.
Kennedy.
This is a bad one.
Anyone know a Kennedy?
Like a Ken?
Yeah, like, yeah, Kennedy, there was a... Misshapen head. Ooh. This is a bad one. Anyone know a Kennedy? Like a Ken? Yeah, like, yeah, Kennedy.
There was a...
Miss Shaping Head.
Ooh.
Miss Shaping Head.
Lilith is a night monster.
Let's get into some boy names.
Calvin.
Bald.
Just means bald.
Oh, sad.
That's horrible.
Bald.
You would assume a Calvin would be bald.
Colin is a young dog.
Campbell is a crooked mouth.
Claude just means a limper.
Somebody that looks funny.
Fabian is a bean grower.
That's not too bad, I guess.
Bringer of pain and Jabez.
Not many people know that.
James, if you're a James supplanter.
I don't even know what that word means.
That's fine.
Simon, flat nose.
Oh, yeah.
Tristan means sad.
So, you know, there's quite a few names out there
and I think
those are, oh, Rebecca means snare, Rachel
means ooh. Oh, no, you, like
a sheep. Not ooh. Rachel means
a sheep.
Some of these names. Yeah, so
let's go to Alana. Alana, you
want to know the meaning of your name?
Yeah, that would be great to know.
I think Dan's doing them in the background.
I just hit a Google, Alana.
Oh, no, Alana already knows what it means.
She's caught up to brag.
No, Alana, I've just done a quick Google.
It just says woman with smelly armpit.
No, it doesn't.
I feel like you're talking crap.
Yeah, that's what he does a lot.
Alana, precious, peaceful, and attractive. Oh, yes, that's does a lot. Precious, peaceful, and attractive.
Oh, yes, that's the second line.
Oh, accurate.
So accurate.
With a slightly smelly armpit.
Yeah.
In Hawaiian, it means offering.
Very nice.
Yeah.
That's actually a beautiful meaning.
Yeah.
So it felt like a bit of a humble brag there from you, Alana.
Yeah, good on you.
Texting through.
Someone else has asked if they could Google Kimberley.
Kimberley?
Let's have a look.
You go and look that up.
Tasha as well as Texan, a brave woman.
Oh, that's nice.
Kimberley, slightly cross-eyed.
Right.
I don't think that's actually...
Nathan Texan, gift of God.
Oh, bro, is there a better meaning?
You're a gift from God?
I wonder if he uses that as a pick-up line
in bars. Nathan. Everly is a
wild boar.
Clint, Meg and Dan on the edge.
Yesterday we were talking about family bombshells
after a guy's
going viral online at the moment
for questioning whether his
adult children, they look like they
must be in their 30s,
are actually his or not
because he said that they aren't as attractive as he is
and he's always doubted it
and he did a paternity test
and it turns out they weren't his.
The thing is, he's not war painting himself.
He's quite ugly, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I'm not sure why he's questioning it now,
but it turns out they weren't his the whole time,
which is actually pretty soul-destroying
for anyone who's thought
that their dad was their biological dad.
But I would say if that person's raised you for the last
30-odd years, they're now your dad regardless.
Anyway, here's some of the family bombshells we got
when we threw it out on the air yesterday.
My auntie, she was married
and her husband worked
overseas so that they could
purchase a house, and they did.
And then probably about six years ago,
I noticed that he didn't show up to the family Christmas.
I noticed that my auntie changed her name back to her maiden name.
And so I kind of like asked my mum, and she said,
oh, like, did you not know?
He's actually gone off and started a new family in Africa.
Africa?
And he's decided he's not coming back to New Zealand.
My auntie was still a bit sore on the subject
because she's still legally married in New Zealand.
He just hasn't come back.
My great-nana passed away about five years ago.
And it turns out that my nana's sister and the oldest son
actually worked together growing up for like years
and they never knew that they were siblings.
We've got so many texts.
Didn't manage to get through them all.
So Meg's got her top five from yesterday.
And number one will join us on the phone
to tell us about their family bombshell.
Because every family has its secrets and its skeletons.
I love hearing a scandal.
All right, number five.
There wasn't too much to this one.
We tried to get them on,
but my grandma married two brothers.
Oh, so it was not together,
but maybe she split up with one,
and then she got with the other brother.
That would have been a bit of a bombshell, really.
Which is crazy, because then all of a sudden your uncle becomes your stepdad.
Confusing, isn't it?
I found out I had two sisters.
One of them was somebody who had a sex change to a woman
and found out that my half-sister was actually my full sister.
So there's a lot going on there.
Oh, that is, yeah.
That's a lot to unpack.
We found out that my mum's cousin was actually a half-brother,
and then we found out a few days later that she had another half-brother
that lived in Australia.
So all of a sudden, we had two extra half-uncles that we never knew about,
and weirdly, they were both called the same name.
You lost me.
You lost me.
It's all right, Dad.
It's when you start going, like, half-brother, you know, it's just, yeah.
All right, number two was my granddad was found dead in bed at the rental.
Sorry, at his rental.
So my granddad was found dead in his bed at the rental by the gardener.
But we didn't have a gardener that did any garden.
So I don't know if.
Oh, ghost.
No, I think he was probably like having an affair.
Something.
And then his like side piece ended up being like.
And told the police.
Found him.
Yeah, or the ambulance. Yeah. And they were like, the gardener found him. They're like, we, side piece ended up being like... And told the police. Found him. Yeah, or the ambulance.
Yeah.
And they were like, the gardener found him.
They're like, we don't have a gardener.
Who was it?
Yeah.
Don't know if that answer...
Boy, he just got his blood pressure up too high, maybe.
Maybe.
And we've got Anonymous with the voice disguiser for number one.
All right.
Anonymous, what was the family bombshell
that you found out late in life?
Well, it was everyone else that found out because I was the bombshell.
I had just had a baby and then my dad, who I'd never met in my life, just walked into the hospital.
And then I found out that he,
after that, he went and told everyone else about me.
And, oh gosh.
No, that's too complicated.
Let's start again.
My dad has, what, like four kids?
Yeah.
I'm probably the third.
Right.
No, that's really complicated. I don't even know. Oh. No,
that's really
complicated.
I don't even
know.
Oh my God,
you weren't
even trying to
figure it out.
It's fine.
No one knows.
It's confusing
for even you.
No one knows
who you are
and no one
will be able
to recognize
your voice.
Well,
they found
out about me
when I
turned,
what, 25. Wow. and i found out that i have a brother on his side who is two
weeks older than me two weeks i was a bombshell so they oh my god my mom was told my mom was told
that um you know he had he wasn't with them anymore.
He even took them around to meet his parents.
Wow.
So you were the, like, in theory, I don't like the word,
but in theory, the bastard child to your biological dad,
but you have a half-brother that's older than you
and your mum was unknowingly the other woman.
Is that right?
And you didn't find out until you realised that your husband is your brother.
Oh, God.
That's so confusing.
I can understand why you're confused.
Okay.
No, I'm not too sure.
No, no, no.
That's not quite right.
I just added that at the end.
Yeah, don't put that one.
I think Chris Warner on Shorten Street
has had that exact storyline.
Yeah.
Man.
Far out, man.
Some families are complicated, eh?
We appreciate you chatting with us.
Hey, Jason, Captain Jase from Below Deck joins us on the show next.
Man, he's loved, eh, by so many around the world.
Very talented skipper.
Yeah, we've been in love with him.
Yeah, but then also just turns out he's a very great reality TV star as well.
He seems to.
He's one of those people you're like,
you're very handsome.
You're very nice.
What's wrong?
There's something there.
You must have some skeletons.
There must be something wrong with him.
You can ask him.
Maybe.
Clint, Meg and Dan on The Edge.
What's in Dan's Google history?
Is it sexy?
Is it weird?
Will it solve a great big mystery?
Or just something new appears?
Okay, I've gone through Dan's Google history this week.
A few odd ones in there, as per usual.
Looks like something is wrong with his cat, Kimmy.
Oh, yeah. Because he has Googled a few times,
can cats be bipolar and how to live with bipolar cats?
Apparently not.
Apparently they don't have, but how do they know?
You know, here's the thing.
Kimmy, beautiful little fella,
he spent a week up a tree.
We didn't know he was there and we found him
and we had to squirt him out of the
tree with a fire hose. Anyway,
I think it has really sort of traumatised
the poor little fella and he's just not been the same since.
Really? What does he see out there?
Sometimes he's really happy and you're like, God, he's
having a good day. Then other days, oh my goodness.
He sees a tree and gets PTSD. Yeah, maybe that's it, Clint. Keep him away from parks and you're like, God, he's having a good day. And then other days, oh, my goodness. Sees a tree and gets PTSD.
Yeah, maybe that's it, Clint.
Right, maybe that's it.
Keep him away from parks and forests.
Anyway, cats can get depressed,
but apparently bipolar's not a thing with cats.
You've been having a little dig around.
Lint in belly button has been good a few times.
Yeah, because I got into bed the other day
and Hannah said it's happened again.
And I said...
Your wife's just noticing.
It's happened again. And I said, what? Annoying, icky things. And she's like, you always... She's like, without fail, you'll get into bed the other day and Hannah said, it's happened again. And I said... Your wife's just noticing these annoying icky things.
And she's like,
you always... She's like,
without fail,
you'll get into bed
and there's lint
on your belly button.
Guys,
there'll be guys listening right now
that have the same issue.
I've got a deep belly button.
Clint,
you've got not one here.
Didn't you go to the doctor
one time
because you were worried
about how deep
your belly button was
or something was coming out of it?
I thought there was
like no end to it.
That's right.
There's definitely an end.
It doesn't go all the way through.
But you can't see it.
It's like a well, you know, like one of those wells you can't see the bottom of?
It's my belly button.
Anyway, there's always something in it.
And it's usually lint.
Anyway.
Is that because the doctors cut your umbilical cord funny?
Like if you've got an innie versus an outie.
I've got an innie.
Is it all based on when?
No, because they'll cut the umbilical cord and still give you about three inches.
And then it just falls off, right?
Yeah, that's true.
So it doesn't actually, would have nothing to do with how they cut it.
No, it's just the way you, the cut of your jib, really, I think.
And mine's just quite deep, like Meg's.
Yep, mine.
How are bills going for you at the moment in the house?
Are you stressed?
Are you stressed with your bills?
I was a little bit stressed last week.
Yeah, when you were on ID overdue payments six times.
I've got an overdue payment of $200.
I owe the IRD.
Anyone listening could just text 333-4343.
How long can you leave it before you pay the IRD?
That's one company I think you want to pay on the due date.
It's just like one of those bills, you know,
whether it be a speeding fine or something like that,
where you just have never budgeted for it.
You're just like, that's the last thing I want to pay is the freaking IRD.
Yeah, it's six times in a row.
So you haven't paid it.
You just looked around for a bit and then didn't know.
No, they haven't sent me one of those texts yet.
You know, where they're like, you have to pay it now.
Otherwise, we'll lock you up.
And the final thing on what Dan Googled this week.
Must have been a slow day.
Was Smithers from the Simpsons gay?
Yes, he was
I thought we all knew that
Oh he was absolutely
Infatuated with Mr Burns
Yes I think we all
Didn't we all
Collectively
Kind of that was the gag
But I think about
Sadly closeted
To old Smithers
Yeah like I think
He secretly had
Infatuated with Burnsy
So what made you
Because I just wondered why
Because he's been in The Simpsons for so long
And he was quite a gay character
What's going on in your world
Where all of a sudden you're just driving along
You pull the car over
And you get your photo
I need to know
I wasn't driving
I was watching The Simpsons
Still?
You watch The Simpsons?
Disney Plus
What?
Yeah, Disney Plus has The Simpsons
God, to have Dan's life, hey, how
relaxed must it be?
What? Because I watch a TV show, Clint.
You're watching Maps.
What's that, Clint?
I just watch cartoons.
We can go back to The Simpsons.
I quite like The Simpsons. I remember my mum actually
dated somebody once before she met my stepdad
and it was all going well and she
actually said to me, Megan, I can't do it anymore.
And I was like, what? She goes, he told me
and he was in his like, I think 50s or 60s
that his favourite TV show was The Simpsons.
That's not my favourite TV show. And she was like, I just, that gave her the ick.
That's such a weird ick. It is,
it is a weird ick but I think it was
other things, it was the conclusion of like we are
on different pages. There might be
something in that for another show maybe, Unique
Icks, where you think it's the
only, you're the only person that's being icked out by what?
I think the ickiest thing in that Google history
was the lint in my belly button, to be honest.
I mean, mate, you're just a big...
Big walking one.
Yeah.
Clint, Meg and Dan on the edge.
My son, I was talking to you guys yesterday,
he's only eight, and we were having dinner,
and I said, hey, what do you guys want to achieve this year?
What's something you'd like to tick off in 2025?
Do a New Year's resolutions, and it's nearly March.
Share our goals.
Never too late, you know, to set a plan.
Every day is a new day to making new day plans.
Yeah, and that's one of the famous sayings that Meg always says.
And he told me he wants to get a tattoo above his belly button,
just below his pecs, so right in the
bang smack middle of his chest
of like a fist
pulling the fingers. And are there any
words around that or just the fingers?
No, I think he initially said
It says enough, doesn't it? It does, yeah.
He said it was because if anyone hacks him off
he can just lift up his shirt and I said
surely it's faster to just pull the actual
fingers. But again, you're not teaching your seven-slash-eight-year-old son
to pull the fingers that people are using.
No, no, no.
Where has he even learned that from, Meg?
I'd be asking the question.
I don't know why you would be.
Anyway, I recorded him.
The audio's a bit crap.
It must have recorded through my bloody Bluetooth in the car.
When I tried to see whether I could scare him out of it
by making him think that it was actually happening,
Mum had signed it off,
and we're going to book it in and get it done.
It was going to go one or two ways.
Do you want to do it this weekend?
Yeah, I talked to mum.
Can you cut it?
Yeah, but it'll be, the middle finger will be on your stomach for life.
Yeah.
Sure?
For the rest of your life.
Even if you're like my age, you're still going to have the middle finger
below your belly button.
Yeah?
How big do you want it?
Like hand five?
Oh, good luck convincing your mum.
All right, Clint, you need to be fired for that.
That was atrocious audio.
That was recorded on Clint's Nokia 3310.
Oh, my God, that was the worst audio.
He goes, actual, and I go, yeah, and then he's like, yeah?
So it backfired on me.
He now wants to lean in.
He definitely wants it.
The only person who needs the fingers pulled out is you
for recording that audio.
Yeah, that was absolutely...
I love that you listened to that back here.
Yeah, good enough.
That's an insult to our listeners.
Yeah, good enough for our national radio show.
Just throw that on, have a laugh, move on.
Hey, Meg, we want to talk about...
No, Clint!
We want to talk about tattoo regret,
like young tattoo regret.
You regret it because you got it when you were young.
You thought it was cool at the time. Now you look back, you're like, God, I was an idiot. Why regret it because you got it when you were young. You thought it was cool
at the time.
Now you look back
and you're like,
God, I was an idiot.
Why did I want the fingers
tattooed on my stomach?
Meg got a tattoo.
Everyone knows the story.
I don't think they do.
I don't think everybody knows.
Will you tell the story
about your intimate tattoos
if someone will admit
that they've only been listening
the last couple of weeks
and they have no idea
about your...
If somebody texts in and they say,
I truly hand on heart, swear on whoever,
have never heard about Meg's tattoos, then yes.
But every single person in New Zealand,
maybe overseas now at this point, has...
Kristen, don't you call. Hang up right now.
I know that you know the story, Kristen.
She's calling and I've talked to you before
and she absolutely knows the story already.
If one person... If one person...
Oh, the lines are lighting up.
I can see all your names.
Vanessa, Bridget, Tony, Hayden Allen.
Absolute crap, Hayden.
You know this story inside out like it's your own.
So don't try and pull the wool over my eyes.
Okay, this person text saying, I only started listening today.
Okay.
So they don't know.
This is great.
How did you know the text number?
Did we say it?
No, we know.
No, we're going to text that first.
See, then I...
Now they're not going to pick up.
You are all lying. You're all trolling me.
I can see you, Brooke, Beth, Jess.
So someone else has texted,
we listen to you guys all day
at work
And we've never heard it
There's no way
Look, this story has been told
Four million times over and over
Let's go to Bridgetta from Hamilton
Bridgetta, morning
Morning
First of all, lovely name
Yeah, have you genuinely
Hand on heart
How long have you been listening for do you think?
Oh, I'd say only probably the last six months I've been listening to you guys,
but I genuinely, hand on heart, do not know anything about it.
About Meg's vagina tattoos.
Yeah, oh God, there it is.
Okay, here we go.
All right, I'll tell Brigitta.
I'll tell her.
Right, Brigitta, when I was 18...
Okay, the music is inappropriate.
Good beer, yeah, good audio, good audio. When I was 18, Brigitta, I I was 18... OK, the music is inappropriate. Good beer, yeah, good audio, good audio.
When I was 18, Brigitta, I really wanted to be cool
and get some tattoos, OK?
I wanted them to be meaningful tattoos
because I knew they'd be on my body forever,
but I also knew I would get in absolute shit
with my mum and dad if they saw a tattoo on my body at 18.
What were the tattoos that have interested you?
I've never heard of this.
Brigitta, I had previously lost my grandparents
and wanted to do a tribute to them.
Brigitta's like, why is this important to the vagina tutus?
Because they loved vaginas.
So, Brigitta, I got a couple of flowers
that represented my grandparents and the words,
forget me not, and I put it in a place
I thought my mum would never see.
Which is...
Oh my God.
Wait, Bridgetta, you think it's bad?
It gets worse. So there's forget me not
and flowers as a tribute to
her grandparents on her vagina, yes.
And then, did you go back another time
or while you were there? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Another time, maybe about a year later.
On her vagina?
Okay, so I need to... time, maybe about a year later. Is the tattoo on your vagina or did you get a tattoo
on the vagina?
No, it's on my,
look, and I need to be
more specific
because it's not like
when I say vagina,
people were thinking
inner bits.
It's like,
so I'm saying
if I was to wear
a very, very skimpy
pair of undies,
you still wouldn't see it.
That's what I'm saying.
Okay, but Bridgetta,
after the tribute,
the beautiful, loving tribute
to her grandparents,
Meg went back to the parlour.
Yeah, I got some words my mum, I said,
Mum, what are some inspiring words?
And she was watching Coro, Coronation Street.
She goes, oh no, risk, learn, listen, inspire.
Bloody hell, how much space have you got down there?
You've got a bloody essay.
It's a novel.
Yeah.
So, Bridgetta.
Kylie's texting and saying, can we be anatomically correct?
Yes, it's not on my vagina.
It is on a part of my,
it's on an area
that you would,
if somebody was to see it,
they'd be like,
that's Meg's.
Do you know how some people
get tattoos
on like the inside of their like,
It's not on the inside.
No,
no,
it's not on the inside.
On their lips.
Like,
you know how people can like,
around near their teeth
where you pull your lip down.
If I was wearing,
if I was facing you,
if you really want to know
where it is,
if I was facing you and I was wearing a skimpy little pair of undies, you couldn't see it, but if I was wearing if I was facing you if you really want to know where it is if I was facing you
and I was
wearing a skimpy
little pair of
undies
you couldn't see it
but if I pulled
the undies down
you could see it
alright
that's all it is
Brigitta you've
heard the story now
you can go to
thank you
you're welcome
the problem is
it used to say
forget me not
now it just says
forget me not
that is true
after a couple
of pregnancies
it has stretched out
and ironically
I've never forgotten.
Okay, thank you.
What a tribute to two vagina-loving grandparents.
Clint, Meg and Dan on the edge.
See, I was getting in trouble off here for making Meg tell a story
that everyone has heard a hundred times before,
but it turns out, Meg,
we might not talk about your vagina tattoos enough.
It's done.
And again, it's not vagina tattoos.
It's crutch.
Crutch tattoos.
Crutch, yes.
They say crutch.
That's a better way to anatomically talk about it.
People say, I swear I've never heard it.
I listen every morning.
I've never heard that story.
Wow, I'm a long-term listener.
I've heard you allude to the tattoos,
but I never knew what they were or where.
Does the hair grow down there, Meg, still? Yes, it does
unfortunately, and I've tried to get laser and they turn me
away. They can't because it'll attract
to the ink of the tattoo.
And I think waxing over the years has distorted
them. Look, it's a lot. It's a lot down there.
Luckily, I'm married. Luckily, my
husband and I have a fantastic relationship and a sense
of humour. And then if he was ever to
leave me or pass away, I'm just never
opening up. Someone else? Sorry, Dan. No, I used to say, forget me not. Now it just says, he'll leave me or pass away, I'm just never opening up. Someone else? Sorry, Dan.
No, it used to say, forget me not. Now it just says,
he'll get me not. Honestly, I don't think
it's illegible. You couldn't read it. Well,
other people were wondering as well, if Guy
is, like, does he ever fall asleep?
You know how some people fall asleep when they're reading a book?
Does he ever down it? Does he ever nod off? And you go,
what's happened? You realise,
it's a real page turner.
This is terrible.
Okay, let's give away some cash next.
Cash strapped is back, baby.
400 bucks is one at seven.
If you need cash,
three, three, four, three,
let us know what for.
Call us at 0800 The Edge.
He just couldn't put it down.
Clint, Meg and Dan on The Edge.
It's 18 past eight.
Clint, Meg and Dan on The Edge.
Are we in or not in to this season
of Love is Blind? I haven't watched it. I haven't started it 8, Clint, Meg and Dan on the Edge. Are we in or not in to this season of Love is Blind?
I haven't watched it. I haven't started it yet, Clint. I did
see, was it just, has it started recently?
Like over the weekend, I think I saw that they had new
episodes and I thought, oh, I should really get into that.
It's my favourite reality show. Yeah.
When it comes to overseas
matchmaking ones. I always remember the first
season where the runaway bride fell down the bank.
Oh my goodness.
I have found, I mean, to be fair,
Clinta, the latest season's as good as the first ones
because I haven't watched the last two.
And the first ones were like thrilling to me.
They felt so believable and real.
And some couples are still together with kids now.
But these more recent ones,
I have felt a bit tricked by the show.
So I haven't been so into it.
I'm watching for the format
more than the characters
this season I feel.
You remember there was
that season
and there was this guy
and obviously you're
getting to know someone
if you don't know the premise
through a frosted glass wall
and you build a connection
emotionally
and then you propose
and then you meet them
for the first time
as the doors open
you run together
in a brace
in the red carpet.
Yeah and there are
these people that
say I love you.
Yeah.
And you can feel that they mean it because they're bawling their eyes out
saying I love you and they've never actually seen the person.
Do you think you can tell a lot about a person's looks
by the sound of their voice and their personality?
Possibly.
And I get why this works because I've had friends
that have fallen in love with people over the internet.
You know, like not actually having met them face to face
but like made bonds through
forums and stuff. And I know
it's true and it can happen. I know a couple of them.
It's a great premise. Even my daughter who's nine, she was
watching it like just in the background with me
and then she was like, what's going on? And I
really enjoyed telling her about a reality
show where people fall for someone
based on who they are as a person before
ever meeting them. But there are some characters
in the past that have been like,
I love going to festivals.
If I was at a festival, would I be able to put you on my shoulders?
Literally, that was like a question asked.
And he goes, I love buying my partner clothes in previous relationships.
What sizes would I be buying?
I was like, no!
And he went through all these awful questions.
He's such an idiot.
In fairness, though, No, but in fairness, you're wanting to go, questions. He's such an idiot. In fairness, though. Oh.
No, but in fairness, you're wanting to go, like, there's a physical attraction.
Then don't go on the show.
Yeah.
I guess it's not for you.
If you are worried about physical attraction being important to you, don't go on the show.
Some of them are going on for followers, though, aren't they? Yeah, but that's the thing.
It's like you can tell which ones are there going, I just want to meet my person.
And which people are very curious about what the person looks like
because it is obviously important. I think most people
though would, if they hit it off with someone personality
wise and they met them and they're a fugly, you'd be a little bit
pissed off. Well, I guess...
Oh my God!
You would, you would. He was just talking about
the lovely messages daughter is getting and you've
gone and thrown that out the window. But it's important
to have a good personality, I get that. Well,
I wanted to bring back the phone we've done before,
Beat That Coincidence,
where you call up with an incredible coincidence.
Yeah.
After a couple were meeting through the glass
and she said this and he was like,
whoa, whoa, whoa.
What did you say?
The whole Easter seaboard is going to be aware.
So I'm like, Willie, you, I'll tell you after.
What did you just say?
His name is Willie.
My dad's name is Willie.
What?
Is it William or just Willie?
It's Willie.
It's just Willie.
Mine is just Willie.
Oh, that's so crazy.
Yeah, and it's so crazy because his dad's name was Willie, too.
He's a junior.
So he's.
No, stop.
Yes.
My dad is a junior.
I hope our dad.
It's not the same.
No, no, it's not.
It's not.
Unless your dad's last name is my last name, which I don't think it dad. No, no, it's not. It's not. Unless your dad's last name is
my last name, which I don't think it is. No, no, no,
no. Willie Pete with the stinky feet.
That's funny. You're waiting for a third coincidence
I know that'd be weird. That'd be like related
I think. So her
dad is Willie and her granddad's Willie
and his dad and granddad are both Willie.
I'm not impressed, Clint. Are you kidding me?
I'm not impressed.
So Dan, you go meet your wife.
They're the same age.
No.
And your wife at the time you were married,
her dad and granddad have the exact same name as your dad and granddad.
No, it's not impressive.
Because if they're the same age, names come in and out of fashion.
And if they were both named in the top 20 popular names for that.
That's a funny name, Willie.
But apart from that, it's not funny name, Willie. But I mean,
apart from that,
it's not a coincidence.
There'll be somebody else
that has a mum called Mary
or Philippa
or like it's all relative.
You meet somebody
and you dare dad
and granddad.
Your coincidences
are too easy to be impressed with.
All right,
beat that coincidence.
If you've got one
that's better than that,
I'll wait under the edge.
The phones will light up.
Clint, Meg and Dan
on the edge.
I'm just not impressed.
You guys are crazy.
What are the chances of not only your dad's having the same name
and then your granddad's having the same name?
I mean, maybe it's a loose coincidence.
You know, like it's something that's like, oh, that's funny.
Why is my mum calling the show?
I just saw Christine Randall on line four.
Hi, Christine.
Hi, how are you?
Oh, you're on the treadmill?
Yeah. Are you? No, I'm running. Oh, running, okay. You're just normal running, Meg. Hi, how are you? Oh, you're on the treadmill? Are you?
No, I'm running.
Oh, running.
Okay.
You're just normal running, Meg.
Yeah.
So why are you calling for the coincidence line?
Well, Jamie's mum and dad were married on exactly the same day
and same year as John and I were married.
So my parents and my wife's parents got married on the exact same day
in the exact same year.
That's a better coincidence.
What, 45 years ago or something, Mum?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's a much better coincidence.
And that's it.
There's no, like, names or shit or anything?
No.
I think you Randalls need to.
Yeah, he's not impressed.
I think you Randalls need some better examples of coincidence.
I think it's a fantastic coincidence.
Thank you, Christine.
Enjoy your run.
I love Christine.
She's sick.
Yeah, it's actually...
I can't believe she listens to us on her runs.
Yeah, she listens to us all the time.
Wow.
Okay, let's go to Sharlow.
Sharlow, morning.
Sharlow?
Sharlow.
You there?
Sharlow.
Hello. Hi. There Shallow. Hello.
Hi.
There she is.
What's your coincidence?
Well, getting to know my husband, well, my now husband,
he shares a birthday with my oldest daughter.
Right.
And our nannies have the same name.
And five years later, we have a daughter who shares her birthday with his brother.
Now, there's more. There's three there. Oh, yeah, there's three there.
There's three birthdays or names in there.
That's good, isn't it?
It is quite good.
It's much better than they're both called Willie.
Yeah.
No, I mean, especially when you think about, like,
when people have to be born on the same birthday,
a lot of things have to line up, Daniel.
A lot of things.
Also, like, yeah, just birthdates and names.
It is just a bit boring to me.
What do you want?
I still don't think you know what a coincidence is,
which is the issue.
I want to know, like,
I want to hear an amazing coincidence
where it was, like, someone they thought were dead, okay?
Then they came back and they finally met them and then...
They thought they were dead, but then they finally met them.
Yeah, so, like, say I had a brother.
I thought he'd passed away.
Okay.
Okay?
Years later, I'm walking down the street in New York.
In New York, one of the busiest cities in the world.
Yeah, yeah. And my brother, who I thought was dead, was coming my way.
That's not a coincidence.
We were both married to a woman called Janine.
Oh, no, no.
More coincidental.
You're getting there.
We got into the same lift. Yeah. We got into the same lift.
We'd booked the same
hotel.
Both our Janines
were friends
that were meeting up that had not seen each
other in 35 years.
Wouldn't they have talked about how they had
brothers?
They didn't know they had long lost brothers
until now in that one meeting in New York City at the same hotel with Janine.
And your brother obviously wasn't dead.
No, he was alive.
I don't think it's relevant to the story then in a way.
It's still a coincidence.
Okay, Crystal, let's go one more.
Crystal, what is your coincidence?
So, hi, guys.
My husband and I, we shared, well, when we were dating in Stuller,
we share birthdays both sharing it with our dads.
So him and his dad have the same birthday.
That's a great question.
And me and my dad have the same birthday.
Dan, come on, that's a good one.
That is good.
So, Crystal.
It gets crazier or weirder, she said.
Okay.
It gets weirder.
Okay, keep going.
So, we've now had two children,
and my daughter shares her birthday with me and my dad.
And our son shares his birthday with his dad.
Shut up!
Shut up!
This is just a family that likes fornicating the same time of year.
Oh, my gosh, Crystal, that's great.
Nothing exciting about that.
You must have, like, was the due date the same?
Did they come early or late?
Nothing planned.
My daughter was, like, 10 days, sorry, was a week late.
I was, like, 10 days early and my son was 10 days late.
You must have been on time, so there's no way it's going to happen.
That's crazy.
Well, we need to bring this back.
But, Crystal, that is the high watermark at the moment.
Well done.
Congratulations.
That's a bloody good coincidence.
I love it.
I keep getting better and better.
It's almost as good as Dan's fake dead brother story.
That was good, though, wasn't it?
Let's get a thought of that on the spot.
All right, thanks, Crystal.
Next on the show, the T-shirt designs that we've designed for each other
to wear during Electric Avenue this weekend.
We only know what each other's are, but not what our own are.
Yeah, we've got apparently opinions from people around the office of whose they would like to wear and whose they wouldn't.
Meg's got a slogan on hers that's both true and embarrassing.
Yeah.
Coincidence.
Yeah, and I think it'll really be a conversation starter for you to talk to many strangers over the weekend as well.
Yeah.
So we won't wait for you because you're going to get held up.
Is it going to be weird for my brother to hang out with me on the weekend
because he's going to be there?
Yeah, definitely.
Coincidence.
Clint, Meg and Dan on the Edge.
21 past nine, we are going to be jumping on a plane
after lunch today, heading to Christchurch for Electric Avenue.
We'll be broadcasting live from Christchurch tomorrow morning.
Dan will be doing a live cash strapped at 8am.
$2,000 strapped to him.
And double pass to Electric Avenue if you can catch him.
Yeah, come see us at Majestic Cafe near Hagley Park tomorrow
or if you're going to Electric Ave, come say hi.
And if there wasn't enough fun, Meg thought she would raise the stakes.
Right.
I said we should all make each other t-shirts we have to wear.
And we have done that. Dan and I have made one for make each other t-shirts we have to wear. And we have done that.
Dan and I have made one for Clint.
Clint and Dan have made one for me.
And Clint and I have made one for Dan.
None of us know what the other t-shirt is.
If you think that's fake, it's not.
We really genuinely don't know.
I am nervous.
Why did you do this?
Because the thing is, I come up with ideas and I think they're funny.
And then I realise I have to be involved.
And then...
Did you think that maybe you could be the string puller,
and you just did it for Clint and I?
No, God, no.
I knew I would always, if I'm going to expect something of you two,
I would do it for myself, apart from if it was like a giant wedgie or something.
Or a circumcision.
I think yours is, Meg, it's going to be hard to beat in terms of embarrassingness.
Okay.
Meg, would you like to hear what people around the office thought of your T-shirt design
when they were shown the design and told not to give anything away?
Can I make a guess?
Not of what it is, because I want a surprise.
I think what you two have done, knowing you two so well,
I think what you would have done is maybe not something that everybody would be hating to wear,
but something that specifically Meg Mansell would hate to wear, because you know
me very well. I don't know. I think she...
I don't know. I think it's what
it's got to make others do
that will annoy you. Like, do you mean
something like, are you going to heaven?
Ask
me how... Ask me about the Bible.
Yeah, yeah. Do you know about your Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ? Because that's what I mean. If you did something
like that, you know that I do not like stranger danger,
especially with people if they're drinking or something.
And if they are talking to me a lot,
I get very overwhelmed very quickly with a lot of people.
And you know that I'm always going to put on a smile
and be nice to everybody.
Well, this is what people said
when they saw your shirt design around the edge of us yesterday.
Is it my friend?
All right, next, we've got Megs.
What the f***?
She's f***ing s***, does she?
I'd be very embarrassed wearing it, I think.
Oh, God.
And I feel like that could go horribly wrong.
I wouldn't wear it personally, but each their own.
Not going to yucky yum.
Oh, my God.
That is f***ing horrible.
Relevant.
Yup.
Brilliant.
Oh, is that Cal?
Great, so he's loving it.
Of course he would.
Yeah, best friends.
Cal from the night show.
Quick fan.
Oh, we giggled when we were
thinking of it, didn't we, Claire?
Yeah.
We had a giggle.
Okay.
I don't love that.
I honestly thought I was
getting off a bit light
and that has made my
thoughts change.
Okay, this is what people
thought about Dan's.
First reaction, this is Dan's.
F***ing awful though.
It's the font, isn't it?
Yeah, it's f***ing awful.
Oh my God.
I think it's beautiful font for a not so beautiful message.
Perfect.
Absolutely amazing.
Would absolutely suit you, Dan.
Gorgeous.
I don't remember the font being a thing.
I wonder if they've shown the right one there.
Why are they talking about the font?
Is it like Comic Sans or something?
No, the font was just plain, so maybe they just switched it up.
And this is the design that Meg and Dan conspired to put on a T-shirt for me.
I highly regret going with your choice on this one.
Actually, I think I've heard through the grapevine,
I had a different design, and then everyone was like,
that's not bad enough, and then you guys have done another design.
Your current design is bad enough for sure.
Wow, this is Clint's.
Is he actually?
There's some creatures that electric have,
so that actually might be a good shirt.
I don't think a shirt would ever suit a man more than that one for Clint.
Like, genuinely.
Oh, no, that's the worst one.
That is absolutely the worst one.
That's crazy.
Okay, Clint.
Yeah.
That's Kel from The Night Show again.
Kel would love that one.
I will say this.
We were thinking of going for you, Clint,
like one that said number one Trump supporter on it.
Yeah, we were.
And this is worse.
And the one that we turned down
was stealing hearts
and blowing farts or something.
So you don't have that.
And that was too...
Well, I've heard the boss say
that in videos,
you're going to have to blur my shirt.
Correct.
Because we can't put it on the internet.
Correct.
And then we've still got on us,
the Edge office,
whose shirt they thought was the worst.
Out of the three,
which one do you think's the worst? Who do you think's the worst clint's is pretty in your face it's pretty bad clint's okay
that is amazing yeah definitely clint clint's is the worst clint's that is correct oh clint clint
loses or me to wear in public yeah definitely clint's that is so out of the three who's is
the worst absolutely clint's one typical clint's on me the four, whose is the worst? Absolutely Clint's one.
Oh, typical.
Clint's or me?
Clint's or me?
This is the first time Clint's has been the butt of a joke.
I honestly wonder if they've shown the wrong T-shirt for you
because I wouldn't want to wear yours, Dan.
I don't want you to eat your hopes up, buddy.
Really?
Oh, I'm clicking my heels.
Me being bullied once again.
Flo Rida.
Clint, Meg and Dan on the edge.
