This is a podcast from Rover. If this podcast was a person, it would be banned from family gatherings. Oh, piss off, Uncle John. This is the Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Oh, morning, everyone. Christchurch, New Plymouth, Hamilton, Dunedin, Napier, Parmy, Invercargill, Nelson, Roto-Vegas, Wings Town, Pagoday, Gisborne, Wellington, Dunnars. All right, you scarfies, get out of bed.

No drama's all. Yeah, we'll just get the old heating going here. Gisborne. Wellington. Dunn is. All right, you scarfies, get out of bed. No drama at all. Yeah, we'll just get the old heating going here. Oh, no, no, not the couch. Holy hell. Oh, well, now that's not it. We've got this. Wait, is that meant to be us? Come on, give us some heat.

Yeah, more than that, please, surely. Do that voice. It's Clint Magentown. Good morning. It's Clint Magenton. Good morning. It's actually not. It's just the two of us, actually, which is very unheard of. Dan stands by the fact that he is never late and has never missed a show. Well, well, well.

Daniel, would you like to speak up? I thought you were the one going into your third trimester doing it. I am actually, Clinton. I'm not feeling great. Way to make it about you, Daniel. Yeah, piss off, Daniel. No, I'm guessing like because you just moved

into a new house like a few days ago, I'm guessing maybe one of those or like an issue because we can't get hold of them that is like power socket charges phone and it doesn't actually work.

You know, when you find that little niggles about the house and you don't know until you move in. When we bought our house, we tried the dishwasher when we were doing the open homes and stuff and it all worked. Then when we bought the house, we realised the dishwasher stopped every time at 12 minutes.

And now that is why Meg will do a full one-hour cycle. A full one-hour cycle. Excuse me, open homes only 30 minutes. Yeah, I know, but there's still 29 more minutes on the cycle. Exactly. Okay, place your bets then. You're going dodgy power soccer. Dodgy power soccer for Dan and he's not here.

I think he's still driving to work. Remember we did a driving test and he failed for driving so slow? And now he's further out. He lives over the shore and he hasn't adjusted for his new location. And he's probably doing 25 on the motorway. All right, I'll wait under the edge or 3, 3, 4, 3. What do you reckon Dan's up to?

What's his excuse going to be? Because we will call him and no doubt end up waking him up next. It's four past six. Clint and Meg. I didn't know Dan this morning. Look, look, there is a tiny bit of me because you guys know I'm a little bit,

I don't want to say crazy, but like there's a little part of me that is worried about my friend and, you know, that I think he's on the side of the road in a ditch somewhere. But when Clint plays that music, he kind of takes it away and I laugh. And now I go, oh, maybe he is just an idiot and he's slept in. I think it has to be something to do with the house. He's never slept in at work before in his life. And now he's in a brand new home.

Something must have gone on. We've got Jackie on 0800 The Edge. What do you think has happened, Jackie? Why is Dan not here? Morning, guys. I have to say, I think he's probably slept in. It's exhausting moving house and having kids. Oh, so he didn't even think about the exhaustion.

But yeah, you're probably right. His body's dead. He got movers, okay? Yeah, he got movers. He had to literally work out how to open cardboard boxes. And his family were there to help with looking after the baby. But I love that, Jackie. That is probably a great...

He didn't take any time off. But Meg, you should probably have had a sleep in because you're pregnant. Thank you, Jackie. Maybe you get to sleep in tomorrow. Thank you very much for validating that and justifying that. If anyone was to sleep in, it shall be I. Okay, well, we're going to call him.

Jackie, if you're right, we'll sort you out with the double-passer. I think his phone's just going to be off. Do I dial the right number? No, it doesn't say his name. It comes over Lana. Ahoy, hoy. Hey, Mr. Webby, you do not sound... Somebody's sounding very perky for being dead in a ditch.

Dead in... That's the only excuse. There they are, my two besties. Why? Yeah, I was listening to you, Meg. I don't like the trust that you have in me that you think I'm just laying in the... What sort of situation would my life have taken a turn

where I'm lying dead in a ditch? Because you're the worst driver on the show. Yeah, you failed the driver's test. You're unfamiliar with these roads you've just moved to. No, Meg, this is all planned, okay? It's all above board. I haven't slept in. Well, can I plan to sleep in tomorrow?

Oh, God. Have you managed to deal with the bus or something? No, Meg and I can sleep in because we're less important. You're very important to the show. Yeah, that is true, Chloe. You can never sleep in. Yeah. Thanks, Chloe.

Meg and I are very dispensable. Yeah, okay. Oh, okay. Okay, thank you. Anyway. Yeah. What are you doing? What are you?

Oh, yeah. Sorry about that. Yeah, so I am... Jackie wants to know if she's getting a double pass to the movies. Did are you doing? Where are you? Oh, yeah. Sorry about that. Yeah, so I am... Jackie wants to know if she's getting a double pass to the movies. Did you sleep in? Is your phone socket broken in your house? Okay. Give Jackie a double pass to the movies.

She's not right. But I am on the way to Hamilton right now. It's a little bit of a secret. Must be nice. I kept it for you guys. Because I'm heading to Hamilton this morning to give away cash for Cash Strap. Oh my God.

Oh, pass up. This is because we did these little, we did those, what do we call them, Clint? We do teaser trailers that play and he goes, I've got something for that. And he goes, I've got a new idea for Cash Strap. Do you remember that yesterday? And I was like, whatever. We just had a long meeting. We had a show team and he said he had a twist for it.

Oh, do you want to know something else he did yesterday? I don't even know if you know about it. I don't know if I'm supposed to say this, but if I'm being kept out of the way, I don't know what I am and aren't supposed to say. Dan scared me in a suit yesterday where he was dressed like, you know when they're a sniper and you're like all wearing like grassy covering? You know when you're like a sniper,

like in sniper movies? You know when you're a sniper? No. No, and they lay down on the grass and they're snipering and you can't even see them because they're camouflaged. Like a camouflage suit.

Yeah, he had one of those and he was hiding near the greenery here in work and he jumped out and scared me with it. Is that got anything to do with this or is that just a weird kink? Yeah, they call it a ghillie suit, Meek. I have mistaken it for a gimp suit, which is definitely not what I'm wearing today. I think you guys would prefer if I was wearing one of those. You'd be spotted in Hamilton wearing a gimp suit pretty quick.

It's not as good for hiding in bushes as a gimp suit, I've been told. But anyway, so we'll be wearing a ghillie suit at some point today. I'm going to be around the whole Waikato region. Wait, so you're... And I'm going to be giving away cash. Are you at work? Are you coming in? I'm still confused.

Yeah, when are you back? Me? How many times do I have to explain to you? I'm not coming in today. You haven't said it once. I'm giving away cash. Isn't that true? Okay, okay.

Well, for the first time I'm telling you now, I'm not coming in. Today, I'm going to be in the Waikato region. I'm going to be giving away cash at 7, 8 and 9 o'clock. I'll give you clues throughout the morning as to where I'm going to be. The first one at 7, I'm going to be there very, very soon. He's gone and changed the whole sheet as well, Clint. Whole show sheet. Honestly, Clint, actually, I, you,

remember when I told you you were sick, when you were sick on Monday? Yeah. And I said he's been alpha-dogging. Yeah. I think it's continued. No, he just thinks he can do what he wants. He suddenly thinks he's like alpha-dog of the team.

Yeah, woof, woof. Yeah. Alpha-dog. Their bark seems a little too low, I think, Dan, for the size. If I'm a type of dog, I'm one of those little yappy ones. I'm definitely not like a big one. Okay, Meg's going to jump into a throwback, get you excited for your Friday Eve.

Is that now? Yeah. Taking all my time to explain it. But essentially, thank you, 15 years ago, it was when Justin Bieber and Ludacris released Baby 15 years ago today. Oh, wow. Oh, so we're playing Justin Bieber's number one, first ever number one song. No, I hate that song. So I thought I'd play my favourite Ludacris song.

Okay. So there's a weak connection, but that's it. Okay. So Ludacris was on a number one song with Bieber 15 years ago, and so now we're playing Meg's favourite Ludacris song. Yeah, which is Yeah. Oh, which is Yeah, which is actually Usher's song with Ludacris. Look at today. I just want to listen to the song. Found, which is yeah. Oh, which is yeah, which is actually Usher's song. Which is Usher's song and he's just featuring it. Look at today.

I just want to listen to the song. Found a way to make it work. Fun fact about that song. Yeah? Actually, it doesn't really connect to the song, but it's because that song was like number one

my favorite song when this happened. I had a little ex-boyfriend. Like, it was like when I was 15, so like, you know when you say an ex-boyfriend, but it was hardly an ex-boyfriend. Do you know what I mean? I am saying... I don't know what you mean. If they're a boyfriend, they asked you out

and you said yes. Yes, and I said yes, but we were kids. So, like, nothing ever happened. Nothing ever happened between us. Yeah, but you said, do you want to be boyfriend and girlfriend? Yeah, we were boyfriend and girlfriend. I think we may have just kissed, but, you know, we were saying we're boyfriend and girlfriend to everyone. But we, I think we may have just kissed. But, you know, we were saying we're boyfriend and girlfriend to everyone. But we ended up breaking up.

I called it. And his rebellion to it, and it was specifically a rebellion to it. I was like, now as an adult, I'm like, good on you, mate. Was he wearing a belly button pierced? Hold on. Is Dan still there? Dan's on his way to Hamilton for Cash Strapped. If you're in the Waikato area at seven,

you're a chance to win. Dan, are you there? I'm here. Yeah, I'm listening to that. I heard what she just said. Did you have any guy mates in high school get their belly buttons pierced? Because I can't think of a single one,

and there's always an exception to the rule, but not in my circle. Hold on, hold on. Let me just count. Three, four, carry the one. No, zero. Yeah. Absolutely zero. I did find it weird at the four, carry the one. No, zero. Yeah. Absolutely zero.

I did find it weird at the time and I remember because he wanted to get done with this. This makes me a bit sad. He wanted to get done when he was with me and I was like, I don't know about that.

And then that's when I broke up with him. He was like, well, I'm going to go and get my belly button piercing. I was like, are you sure? And now him and Jeff

are living an incredible life in Fiji, sailing around the Pacific. He was a great guy. He was a great guy. No, I guess it's like age of their own. If you want to do something, colour your hair, pierce your body.

I'm always like, go for it. I do that with my kids as well. It's like express yourself however you want. Yeah, it's just not something that I ever experienced in my circle. And I had some pretty colourful circles. He's the only person I've ever known that has had, as a guy who has had his belly button pierced.

I'd love to know if that's coming in or something. Dan, Dan, do you want to try and bring it back? Yeah, Dan brings back the belly button piercing on men. Dan? Oh, I don't know. I don't think of anything I could pull off. Belly button piercing. Hey, do you know

as well, crop tees for dudes are like right in at the moment. I even just saw Hellenstein Brothers dabbing their, dipping their toes in the water there where they just had one rack and had crop tees for guys. And so, of course, I bought one.

And they're low enough to obviously cover where your belt would be. But if you're reaching up high, it'll definitely raise and show your belt maybe a little bit of midriff. So, I guess as we get more accustomed... Little Jewels. Yeah, as we get more accustomed

to the crop dance. A little sparkly treaty. The long tees that you normally used to wear down to your knees. Remember they used to have the scoop behind your back? They're all on the way out. Feels like a bit of one of those spinning wheels. I've worked with four men. Knee pair, producer knee pair, producer Carl, Clint, out. It feels like a bit of one of those spinning wheels. I've worked with four men. Nipia, producer Nipia, producer Carl, Clint, Dan.

And we do a little spinning wheel. Somebody gets a little male buddy button piercing. No, no, no, no. I don't even like, I like those odds. If Meg's name's on the wheel, I like the odds because the wheel's never kind to Meg. But if you're out... It's true.

I don't want my gunt on display. Oh, but it could be a very, it could be like bejazzled, you know? Lovely. We'll think about it. We'll talk to Dan.

Actually, it might be a nice punishment for Dan not telling us where he was going to be this morning. Dan is not here. This has just fallen right into our lap.

I'm going to the show. Or Dan's belly button. Producer Carl? Sorry, so am I getting a piercer for tomorrow morning? Am I going to check that out? So I'm just telling this for Dan Dan, can I please get a picture of your belly

Just so they know what they're working with? No, you're not That's one thing I will put my foot down and say No, I'm not doing it Let it be known, it's the one thing that Daniel will not do Is get his belly button pierced I'm just writing that down as well So that's the one thing

Good to know what we're working with There's quite a few things Dan, mic's off I'm just writing that down as well. So that's the one thing. The one thing. Good to know where we work. Okay, so then... There's quite a few things. No, no, no, no, no. Dan, mic's off. He's used his veto in March. That's risky, buddy. That's so risky.

All right, we're going to... Bugger. Oh, bugger. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Dan is not in studio. He's on his way to the Waikato. He is going to be running around parts of Hamilton, giving away cash, seven, eight, and nine this morning.

Candle with Meg. This list, the Billboard's top 20 biggest women artists of the 21st century, according to Billboard, and I think they've got some stats to back it. They haven't released them, but because it's Billboard, they have all the data. They can justify their picks. From the 21st century to say about how many hits,

how long the hits have been in the charts, etc., etc. So this list, I think, is going to piss some people off, but if Billboard have the stats for the past however many years. Because it almost feels like when you do thank yous, you're always going to forget someone. Yep, yep. I mean, people are not happy that Mariah Carey is number 12 out of the top 20.

Number 20, who just made it in, Christina Aguilera. Number 19, Avril Lavigne. I thought that was an odd one, Avril over Christina. Yeah. Yeah, I guess she must have done it. But she was like a pop princess for a huge time, Avril. She sculpted my childhood a bit. And I think as well, if you say,

Bill would must have the stats to go well. The stats don't lie. They don't. This is how long they spent at number one with however many songs that they had. Number 18, SZA. Number 17, Destiny's Child. Wow, SZA got in there.

The only group out of everybody. Nicki Minaj makes the list. Billie Eilish does at number 15. She just missed out on the 14th spot with Britney Spears being there, but I still thought she'd be higher up. Carrie Underwood hits it. Kelly Clarkson, number 11.

Number 10, this one shocked me as well, Alicia Keys. You met her. Didn't she say you have the voice of an angel or something? I did meet her. She is such an artist, and I mean that in the way of, like, I don't know what other job she could have done apart from maybe being a tarot card reader or a florist.

Like, I just mean that in the way that she just, she lives and breathes music. She is so, yeah, like a kind of like magical kind of person to meet. Going down to number nine, Miley Cyrus. This is the top 20 biggest women artists of the 21st century. Ariana Grande hits number eight, like you guessed, Flint. Somebody who didn't say Pink, number seven. Actually, my daughter and my wife went to go see Pink,

and I've seen her before. Phenomenal. She's so talented. Somebody else, great live, Lady Gaga, trying to make a comeback at the moment. One of the best pop albums released of all time, undebatable, Katy Perry, number five.

Number four, you didn't bring her up, Adele. Oh yeah. Wasn't a pop artist, it was a female artist, so. Yeah. Then we get into the top three. Take your guess now the top three. Take your guess now. Top three. I didn't mention the Queen Bee either and you talk about D. Child

so does she feature separately as well? She features separately so she is in the top three. Where does she sit? She just had album of the year. She's been around forever. I'd put her... Is it controversial because I'd put her at one. Okay, Beyonce number one and then you've got two other... I've still got Taylor. I know she put her at one I'd put her at one Okay Beyonce number one and then you've got two

I've still got Taylor I know she's in this I'll go Taylor two Yeah and then Rihanna three Oh yeah Rihanna did music back in the day I know

I can't believe but she's one of the best You're incorrect on that Number three is Beyonce Number two is Rihanna Really Number one biggest female artist of the 21st century is Taylor Swift.

Oh, who picked this bloody song? Producer Nipia. You've done her a disservice to do this song as her winning track. Maybe this is where it all began. That was her thought process. People will be fighting over that with the internet Beyonce getting third. Yeah, although then

when she wins Best Album of the Year everyone gets angry at her then. Yeah, true. So you can't bloody win if you're Beyonce. Yeah, isn't it funny that Taylor would have had

nothing to do with this list but people will still be angry at her that she won't win. She's like, I don't even know what's happening. Hey, good news. If you've been following the astronauts Sunny and Butch,

those are their nicknames at least, they're meant to do eight days in space. They've just landed after actually spending nine months up there. A lot of the world felt sorry for them. We had a very different perspective from Chris, was it Hatfield? Yeah. Chris Hatfield, an astronaut who joined us on the show last year, one of our most favourite interviews.

Is that his last name? Colonel, yeah, Chris Hadfield. And for reference, he went viral about, I think it was about 13 years or 10 years ago kind of thing. He was the guy that was playing the guitar in the space station, that David Bowie song. You might see his face and recognise his face actually because he has been viral quite a lot. Hey Chris, your bag doesn't fit in the over here compartment there. Are you sure you're within the restrictions? You're also a little heavy as well.

That'd be you making a sign up. Then you may see his guitar. That son of a bitch. Absolutely. Oh, God, but then everybody would cringe if I brought out a guitar. Oh, God. We're stuck with her for eight months. It sounds terrible to me.

It's like, it's different in space. It's different. It's differently. Yeah, well, Chris actually gave us a very different perspective about feeling sorry for astronauts who've been trapped, inverted commas, in space. Jeez, that space mission nine months ago was a little messy with Sunny and Butch, astronauts who were supposed to spend eight days in space, but instead they ended up being stuck up there, now we know, for nine months

because they had just touched down. They were stuck in what felt indefinitely. They were trying to get back home. We were feeling, the whole world was feeling very sorry for them. This is the moment they did land though. And splashdown, Crew 9 back on Earth. Well, you see it with your own eyes,

that spacecraft now safely in the water. The spacecraft, SpaceX Crew 9, returned as it's being called. There were three astronauts and a cosmonaut on board, and they will soon be surrounded by vessels and safely lifted aboard another vessel for the return home. Yeah, a cosmonaut, a Russian astronaut,

and then astronauts, the American ones. But, yeah, they've splashed down as they land on the water versus a touchdown. Well, we were feeling sorry for them. Obviously, you plan for eight days, you're out there for a long time, but we actually learnt from Chris Hatfield when we spoke to him, an incredible

astronaut himself, that this was the dream. Yeah, they hit the jackpot actually, and we shouldn't feel sorry for them. That's what he said when we caught up with them last year. I think you've got it backwards. Astronauts feel like they're trapped when they're on Earth. Wow. And when they get to space, that's what they train for.

Sunny and, it's funny you call them Sunita and Barry. I didn't even know their names. Their names are Sunny and Butch. Sunny and Butch. This is the greatest gift they could have possibly gotten. If they thought they were only going to be up there for a week or two. They get to stay up for a full long duration flight after training for 25 years of their lives. So this is a huge boon for them.

We run like 200 experiments up there. And it's a big complicated place. Lots of things need fixing. They're as busy as can be. And when they get back, you know, Earth will still be here. So it's a great boon for them. And, yeah, it's a shame that their spaceship didn't work the way they wanted. But they're going to be fine.

They'll be back as soon as they can. Life is good. Crazy that he's like, lots of things need fixing. I'm like, really? Stop making do up there. But, yeah, Chris Hatfield, incredible chat. It's such a hard interview to edit down because everything he said was just so incredibly interesting.

If you want to listen to the full chat and you're into a lot of that sort of space stuff and how it all works, you can text podcast to 3343 and re-upload the full chat that we had with Colonel Chris Hatfield, astronaut. He also releases books. He's done an astronaut's guide to life, which is just about him and his followings.

But he does, he writes stories like thrillers and stuff, fiction. The Defector and the Apollo Murders, which are quite cool because obviously he knows the backstory with these situations. Yeah. You know what I mean? Incredible. I guess a lot of people would be guessing as an author of what happens up in a space station, but he knows.

If somebody was to be murdered up there, what would go down? So if you've ever been really curious about what happens in space, yeah, text me on podcast at 3343. Hell of a listen, actually. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. Alright, getting to know everyone that listens to our show a little more intimately, one at a time, and I hear Kezia

is called for the very first time. Welcome, Kezia. Kezia works in payroll for the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. Oh. And where's she gone? That's where the... She drives a Vitz and a husband with two kids, plus is a star sign of a tourist.

Oh, same, Kezia. You must be very determined. Oh, yes. Yeah, I mean, people you'd like to use the word stubborn. Me, not so much. Kezia, what made you call this morning is because Dan finally wasn't in studio and you thought, this is my chance to...

Yeah. Oh, I try and call all the time. This is the first time I've actually ever gotten through. Oh, wow. Oh, Dan is here. He's just in the Waikato giving away cash at 7, 8 and 9 this morning. Look, I'm just gutted I'm not there to be a witness to this momentous occasion.

You are a witness. You are here in a way. Oh, bugger. Yes. I mean, yes. I'm cool. All right, well. A fly on the wall, so to speak.

Kizia, Mick, do you want to ask you a question? We're going to try to assume your answer. And whoever's closest gets the point because obviously they know you best. Okay. Works for the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. Okay. I've got one. God, please. Well, if you work for the symphony orchestra,

what instrument would Kizia most likely pick up and be able to play? Ooh, I like that. She may not be able to play at all, but I guess... You'd like to think that she could if she works for the new zealand symphony orchestra right a little bit musical but then if not everyone has an instrument where if i was like all right your life depends on it you need to play something what instrument do you pick up i think he's here because of her name is on the keys the keyboard uh she can play the keyboard maybe like a couple of ditties where she's got a couple

of songs she could pull out but she couldn't probably read the music and play a big Beethoven thing. The old... Okay. Yeah. What do you reckon, Dan? Ooh, okay. So, what was the question? Oh, get out

He's not even working as hard as we are And then he decides he doesn't need to listen to the breaks either So here's the thing, I'm on a live stream right now If you go on TikTok live on the Edge NZ You can see me I'm there and I'm about to give away where I am for this cash trap But I wasn't listening, sorry You're being distracted by your own face

reflecting back into the TikTok live stream, I would imagine. Clint, you know multitasking isn't my strongest... Daniel! Well, I guess you don't get a guess then. Forfeits the point, no? I unfortunately am going to say that I think Kezia doesn't have a musical bone in her body and she would pick up the triangle and just give it a hit

because no one can wreck the triangle. I don't know about that. So Kezia, even though... Oh, two terrible options there. Are you picking up the keyboard or the triangle if you're being asked to play an instrument in front of, you know, a crowd? Your colleagues. Yeah.

It has to be the triangle. I'm sorry, man. Oh, yes! Yes, get in! Oh, I was so sure. your colleague. Yeah. It has to be the triangle. I'm sorry, man. Gosh, yes. No way. Yes, get in. Oh, I was so sure. Well, so you work at a symphony orchestra and you do not

have any musical ability personally. Yes, I'm one of the only people who works in the admin team who cannot play anything. Not a single thing. Nothing. Not a single thing.

I can't even read music. Yeah. Okay. Well, it's I can't even read music. Yeah. Well, it's hard to stuff up the triangle. Kizia, so hey, we appreciate you finally calling the show. We love that you tune in and keep trying because you've proved that persistence can pay off. So we're going to send you a voucher to spend

in store at Zed. Spend that on whatever the hell you like. Thank you so much. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Win a share of $50,000. Cash. With the edge cash trapped. Trapped.

Alright, I knew this would happen, Meg. Dan didn't arrive at work this morning and we found out at about quarter past six he was on his

way to Hamilton. He's now done a bit of a shout out saying I'm at the base in Hamilton. First one down gets to play. He's also live on the Air Gen Z on TikTok.

Yeah, if you want to follow him there. You needed to do that because I think if you had, you would have realised that he already had somebody because now he's just turning everybody away and disappointing. I think I did you in the last break, he had nobody, right? So it's been a couple of minutes and now they're flooding in. Hey, Dan. Good morning.

Yeah, oh my goodness. So there's more and more people arriving already. But Daria was the first. Good morning Hey, Dan. Good morning. Yeah, oh, my goodness. So there's more and more people arriving already. But Daria was the first. Good morning, Daria. Good morning. Okay, so you get to play cash-strapped this morning. So it's going to be very, very simple. You need to just make a choice.

You need to choose whether you take an amount from Meg or risk that amount and go into my cash-strap, which I've got strapped to me. Can Daria hear me? She can't hear you. She isn't wearing a headset because Dan didn't bring a second one. So Dan's going to be relaying everything you say, Meg. Can you ask Daria what

she wants to spend her money on? What do you want to spend your money on, Daria? I need a computer for uni. Okay. So is she at uni already or is she waiting to. All right. So is she at uni already, or is she waiting to go to uni, and what is she studying? She's a first year.

She's studying occupational therapy. Okay. Does she have... Okay, so she needs some money. Okay. Well, that's what she's there for. Okay. Okay, well, it's not going to get you a laptop,

but you might be able to put some money towards one of those little, like, tablet-y things. Chromebooks. A little Chromebook. Thank you, Clint. Let's give you $280, Daria. $280. Okay.

$280, Daria. What would you want to do? Do you want to take Meg's money, or do you want to risk it and go into the vest and maybe get more, or maybe get more or maybe get less? Her sister's come down as well so she's confiding in her sister. That's a lot of money for a student.

280. What do you call it? Okay, so you want to go into the vest? Crazy. Guys, she's going into the vest. Dan's travelled all the way this morning from Auckland to Hamilton. The chances of him lowballing you with $20 feels mean. Okay, Daria, I'm going into the vest.

You've just turned down $280. You are going away with the first cash strapped in Hamilton at Te Awa the base outside Jets this morning. $500! $500! Well done. jets this morning. $500! Thank you so much. Well done. You were so quick down here as well.

Like within seconds you were here. Yay, thank you. No worries at all. Back to you guys in the studio. Cool, alright. Cash draft happening again if you're in the Waikato area at 8 and then Dan's playing again at 9. Hopefully that one's being signed off by the boss because

normally it's a couple of times a morning. I haven't really signed it off to be honest so hopefully he's okay with it. The Air Gen Z on TikTok if you do want to follow Dan and what he's up to this morning, jump on and check him out. Next on the show, do you think you walked down the aisle to one of the most basic

B songs of all time? Yeah, and that's okay. That's okay to have walked down to a basic bitch song in the end. You know, it's popular because it's good. Yeah, that's true. That's why. Maybe the time you didn't

realise it was basic until like, you know, 10 years later and you realise, oh, everyone had the same idea. We were doing Beat That Coincidence yesterday. Yeah, we were

and that's when Vanessa called up and she said that her coincidence was that her partner, new partner and their partner's ex-partner both had the same previous wedding song. Yeah, and we were actually like, oh my God, that's a great coincidence. Initially, we were like very impressed. And then it took a quick turn.

I was married in the past and my partner was married in the past. And we both had the same wedding song. There's billions of songs in the world. What was the song? What would have been number one at the same time, Enrique Iglesias? It was Aerosmith. I don't want to miss a thing. I don't want to miss a thing, yes.

You've sort of ruined it a bit there, Vanessa. Oh, fuck that. Yeah, I did end up looking up a list and it was like number three on the most used women's songs of all time. Yeah. Unfortunately. So we asked you if you think you walked down the aisle looking back now to quite a basic,

oh, sorry, a common popular song. Thank you, a popular song that's used a lot and a lot. And Laura may have done that. Morning, Laura. You walked down the aisle to a popular song? Hi, it was Arithmetic by Brooke Fraser. Laura may have done that. Morning, Laura. You walked down the aisle to a popular song. Hi. It was Arithmetic by Brooke Fraser.

Another Chris Oakley. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah. This is a Chris Oakley marriage. We're not religious. We're not religious at all, but it was just one of the, you know,

Yeah, it was a pretty song. that we listened to. It is actually a lovely song. It has come through a couple, well, not that particular song by Brooke, but Brooke It has come through a couple, well, not that particular song by Brooke, but Brooke Fraser has come through a couple of times, Laura. Yeah, and were you similar age, Laura? Are you late 30s?

Yeah. Yeah, it's the wheelhouse for, like, Brooke Fraser fans. I think my wife is a massive Brooke fan. Yeah, she's actually... I've been staring at the sky tonight. Did your partner cry when you got to the end of the aisle? Oh, yeah. I think he was a little bit cheery at the beginning.

And by the end, you took such a long time, you were like, bloody hell, hey. Yeah, it's a long song. It's like a five-minute song, this. Brooke Fraser deserved to be much more famous than she was worldwide, I think. I don't think she had the worldwide acclaim that she deserved. She was an incredible,

she is. She's got it now, though, in the Christian community. Christian community, definitely. Yeah. Well, you enjoyed Church Sunday, Laura? Thank you. Thank you.

I won't be there. And neither will you, Clint, either. Thanks, Laura. I actually have the list as well, if we want to go through the top ten songs so you can see if you had a very

pop basic No. Popular song. Oh, God, some people were texting in. Yeah, and by the way, Penelope, yours is on the list. Okay. Let's look back at the top 10 most basic

wedding songs of all time. Right after this, text in while you walk down the aisle to me, and we'll see if yours features. We're talking about the most popular wedding songs. Clint likes to call them basic bitch. There is a top ten list of all time. I don't know how accurate it is

because I don't know how they get these stats, but if I could add a guess, they'd probably sound about right. Let's go to Tash. Tash, what was your wedding song? I'll see if it was on the list. Morning, guys. It was I Won't Give Up On Us.

Oh, Jason Mraz. That's it? Well, this is an interesting choice. You've just got married and you're like, I won't give up. It's like, well, obviously in the audience being like, well, it's day one, so. I'm sorry. Well, don't listen to him. What are vows all about?

Saying sickness and health and not giving up. I think it's beautiful. Yeah, it was all, it was actually chosen by my sister because we had only six weeks to get married. My father-in-law was terminally ill. Oh, good one, clever. So we had a very short window of time and she just said, you know,

something we didn't even think about in depth and she said, look, what about this, guys? And we really liked it. Yeah, as you should. And, you know, with the short time frame, we just made it happen. Okay. Well, I didn't see anything mean about a dad.

Hi, Lily. No, dad's a triple man. Tash, we're going to send you to the movies. Yeah, I'll see you in the office. Your song is not on the list. Well done. Black Bag, starring Cate Blanchett, Michael Fassbender, and Reto Jean Page.

But, yeah, congratulations. Not in the top ten most basic songs of all time to walk down the aisle to. I don't know if Emily and Zach are married, but we yeah, congratulations. Not in the top 10 most basic songs of all time to walk down the aisle to. I don't know if Emily and Zach are married, but we did get two consecutive texts in a row saying my wife walked down the aisle to butterfly kisses and the next text was I walked down the aisle to butterfly kisses.

So I don't know if those are two different people or it just so happens that it's a popular song. We had the butterfly kisses. That one? Oh, I love that song. That was like a more, like a dad and daughter song, isn't it? Oh, yeah, maybe. It's like a dad and daughter song, isn't it? Oh, yeah, maybe.

It's like a dad and daughter song. Oh, God, no, don't. It's going to make me cry. I used to. Maybe not. Butterfly, kissers. I don't know. It doesn't sing like that.

All right, let's get into this list. Number 10 of the most popular wedding songs of all time, I Want to Dance with Somebody. What? When you hear some... Walking down the aisle. Well, no, maybe. That's the thing.

Like leaving the aisle. Possibly first dance. Maybe first dance. These are just very popular in weddings. You Make My Dreams Come True, Daryl Hall and John Oates. That must be another one that's like a first dance vibe, right? Yeah, I think so. You Are The Best Thing by Ray LaMontagne.

Okay. Oh, yeah. I don't know this one. Has it happened to me? Wow. This was my mum's one. She had a different version, You Can't Help Falling In Love.

I was Presley. Wise men. She actually had the UB40 version and she got married before me to my stepdad. But I wanted to use the Hayley Reinhart, is that her name, version? Maya. She put me to the post on that one.

Beautiful. Perfect by Ed Sheeran. Obviously, he's going to be in there. This is, I thought this would be top three. No. We're getting to the top five now. Marry You, Bruno Mars. Most popular wedding songs of all time. Then A Thousand Years by Christina Berry.

There are people where they go and they're like, damn it. Vanessa's song, Don't Want to Miss a Thing, Aerosmith. Oh, yeah. Number three. That's what started this whole thing. When we found out that her ex and her now partner's ex both walked down the aisle to this song. Number three. That's what started this whole thing, when we found out that her ex and her now partner's ex both walked down the aisle to the song. Number two, of course, he's making his second appearance,

Thinking Out Loud, Ed Sheeran. So honey now. Yeah. Definitely, this is going to be one of the most basic B songs to do a first dance to, I think, especially. That's true. And number one, most popular, or basically, especially. That's true. And number one, most popular wedding song of all time, All of Me, John Legend.

Yeah, actually, I forgot about John Legend. Of course he'd be in the top ten. There you go. Yeah, and I think this person's alone when they say, my friend walked down the aisle to the Jurassic Park theme song. Okay, well, it's not that I and I think this person's alone when they say, my friend walked down the aisle to the Jurassic Park theme song. Okay, well, that's not what I don't think of anyone's top 100. I wouldn't have thought. Oh, is this Butterfly Kisses?

Yeah. Shut up! I used to listen to this. No, I can't even do it. I'm going to cry. You can't listen to it? Why? I can't.

Is it a pregnancy? I can't listen to it. I can't even do it. I'm going to cry. You can't listen to it? Why? I can't. Is it a pregnancy? I can't listen to it. I can't. You're going to watch the video of the little girl standing on her dad's feet while he dances. It's actually crying. Such a good song.

I already know. I'm going to stop crying when I start singing. Okay. Must have done something right. Such a good song. I've already known the mix. Meg, stop crying when I start singing. Okay. And butterfly kisses at night. Okay, we have... I've lost Meg, sorry. Let me see if I can change the vibe for you, babe. Oh, God.

How about... How big's Meg? There you go. Yeah, that's better. Clint Megadam. Let's go. Extreme, that's better. Clint Megadam. Let's go. Extreme cheapskates. It's a TV show I've since become obsessed with

after discovering 10 years, I think, after it originally aired on a TV show channel called TLC. Yeah, it's where people, as you can probably imagine, are extreme versions of being a cheapskate. I think we all know a cheapskate of some standard in our lives. And it's, I mean, the thing is, it's hard times for everybody right now, but we're talking about real cheapskate of some standard in our lives. And it's, I mean, the thing is, it's hard times for everybody right now, but we're talking about real cheap.

Yeah, people that are taking it to the extreme. Like this guy. Every dollar we spend on anything other than food is a waste. I don't see the need to spend money on furniture. I'm a floor guy. I sit on the floor and it's very comfortable. I mean, it's just tossing money into the trash receptacle. That's what I think of furniture. So as you can imagine, it's just an empty room like someone's moved house. And he's moved in and it's just a blanket on the floor and he just sits on it. It's actually almost the room's too big because he has no furniture.

He doesn't need a room that large. And we're not talking about people that are genuinely like just budgeting because they're in hard times. I follow a lady on TikTok who I've become obsessed with. She's not a big person to follow. I sent you her plant as well. Yeah, she forwards these reels all the time. She's like 32.

She's got two kids. She's got a husband. They've both got jobs, good paying jobs. They've paid off their mortgage because they've been so cheap. And now they continue to be cheap even though they have the money. Because it's become a new way of living. It's a sickness almost. Yeah, right? It's an addiction to be like, how much money can I save?

And then these kids are wearing five layers of clothes instead of just putting on a heater or something. When they again, very much so have the money. Yeah, and they're just going to die with all this money that they've saved. I get it when you're like, okay, we're going to pay off the mortgage, but then once you get to there, like,

now, can you relax a bit? Well, this guy works for a company that must receive a lot of products. And when they get sent these products, they're always packaged with those styrofoam chips so that it doesn't get damaged. He takes those home in a cardboard box. And check out what he does with them.

What I did was I found some two by fours and these are styrofoam peanuts. So I just take all the peanuts, throw them in there and then I cover it up with bubble wrap and then this is a table cloth and it makes a perfect bed. One, two, three shirts and two pairs of shorts. And by the way, I own no underwear and no socks.

So you heard right. He's made a bed out of styrofoam chips and he doesn't have underwear and socks because it's just an added expense and he's got to wash his shorts anyway. I feel, I don't care about the underwear one. I'm like, whatever. What?

I don't care about that one as much as the socks. The socks are like, you will get blisters, you will get, you know, rubbing, but like if you're just wearing shorts, you will be fine. Well, not if you're manspreading at a bus stop. In your bits. Yeah, in your commando every day.

Let's go to Rebecca. Oh, you're under the edge, cheapskates. Is it you that's a cheapskate, Rebecca? I am, yeah. Oh, God. What do you do to save extreme amounts of money? Go on. So, I drive, like, a moped little scooter year-round

because it costs, like, $9 a fortnight to run. Rain, shine, hail, anything? Yeah, everything. I'm still on my learner's license and I'm 25, so it's a little embarrassing, but you know. Okay. All right. But I've been able to buy a house at 23 because I've been doing it since I was 16. But I still can't believe you must be doing other things.

It can't just be that we can't buy houses at 23 because of petrol. Yeah, yeah, yeah, because none of us want to drive a moped in the winter. Well, I guess it's a lifestyle, but that's probably the tip of the iceberg. Thanks, Rebecca. What about Grace? Yeah, let's go to Grace. Grace, you know somebody that was an extreme cheapskate? I do.

So I have a former workmate that used to steal little bits of toilet paper and milk from the fridge and the bathrooms at work because they just didn't really want to pay for it themselves. And they're like, well, if work's paying for it, it's free. I think that's a pretty, that's a bad way to save money, to steal. Because then you go oh I got away with that and then give them 10 years and then what's he taking?

Wasn't that horrible like one ply Grace? You know that one where like it's not even one ply it's like sandpaper. It was unfortunately it was the awful one ply stuff and to be honest I think it was a bit of like a long winded tax game because we work for the government so it's a good way to claim your tax money.

Thanks, Grace. Get it, get it. Okay, let's finally go to Emma quickly. Why are you a cheapskate or is it your parents? It's me. Every time I need things like flour and butter and sugar, even like canned tomatoes, anything like that, I'll go around to my parents' house and raid their pantry,

especially for butter because I'm not paying $9 for butter. Butter is insane at the moment. I don't know how any bakers are doing it. I kind of get that. I love that. It's like it's a free-for-all, mum and dad's house. How old are you, Emma? I'm 26.

Yeah, it doesn't end, does it? You know, I've got a daughter now. I've got 26 years. Okay, good. Meg, you should do what Ruby does. She just buys nipple covers instead of bras. That's not a bad idea. Because bras are expensive.

They're like 70 bucks upwards for big boobs. Could you do that? Yeah, I could do that. Okay. Well, there you go. Want to pay your mortgage off quicker? Oh, thank you. I'll just let them hang out.

Or you could actually just score some money with cash trapped. Dan is in the Waikato at the moment. He's going to be giving away clues as to his whereabouts. First to find him at eight will win the cash trapped to him. Are you hiding? Are you in position yet, Dan? Hi. You there?

So it went too easily last time. So now I'm going to make it a little bit more tricky. I've got a ghillie suit. Or is it a gimp suit? No, it's not a gimp suit. It's one of those. The camouflage suit is a ghillie suit, isn't it? It's a ghillie, yeah.

Yes. Yeah, so I'm going to be hiding. It's going to be a little bit more camouflaged, but I have got, I will say this, $1,000 to give away. Wow. Clint, Meg and Dan. Scandal with Meg. I haven't seen the show yet.

I don't know why I've taken so long to watch Severance, but I haven't seen it. It's number one on Apple. Yeah, Apple TV+. Adam Scott is the main actor in it. That name, it's so funny. Some celebrities, to me, you see their face and you're like, I know he's a celebrity.

If I saw him in the street, I'd know he's a celebrity. If he worked into work, I'd get all buttery and jittery, but I don't know his name. Adam Scott. I've never heard of Adam Scott in my life. You know them by their character name. I remember when I watched The 100, and I was at the zoo years ago when The 100 was big, and I was like, Lincoln!

And he turned around, and I was like, ooh, sorry, Brian, that's not your name, but I didn't know it. And he ended up coming into the Edge and coasted the show for like an hour. I remember that. So Adam Scott was on the Kelly Clarkson show talking about Severance and how it's such a loved, loved program.

And he said he does have some shitty friends that leave him abusive voice messages. And he played them on the show when they left a cliffhanger

that they don't get the spoilers for next season. Here's one after he finished watching an episode. Alright, you son of a bell and I just sat here on the edge of our seat

waiting to find out what happens when you guys come to. You losers. Oh, buddy. Are we pissed that this episode just ended? It's Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard. Surely there's a friend.

Well, if you want to know, but deep down you don't want to know because you don't want to ruin it. Yeah. How cool is it that, like, two of his best mates are so into something you're in and created that they are, like, fully. You know, because I wonder, I do wonder, you'd obviously be proud of your mate, but if you're watching a show and Adam Scott's your best mate,

would you sit there and go, that's Adam, rather than lose yourself in the storyline? I guess it depends how much of a contrast their character is to the personality you know them actually to be. True. And maybe you'd just be able to lose yourself in it and lose yourself in the character.

But I think if I saw you and Dan acting in it, I'd be like, look at you losers, rather than like, what happens next? It was like when I saw Cam in that movie. I just couldn't believe that Cam was on the TV. I was just taken back by her star power. That's your daughter Cameron. Yeah, when she was in Megan. Yeah.

The movie Megan. Yeah. Which is funny because when producer Nipia did watch that movie the other day, he goes, oh, Glenn, I watched your movie. All five seconds of it, yeah. All five seconds. I think I said like four words at the start. In fact, most people didn't know the movie had started.

They thought it was like an ad before the film. Dan isn't present in this chat because at the moment he's being very quiet. He keeps calling in a gimp suit, which you need to stop doing because that's not what it is. He's like, what is it called? Is it a gimp? A ghillie suit. Ghillie suit. It's like one of those camouflage grass suits that you see snipers use in movies so that they can hide.

And he's hidden in a bush somewhere in the Waikato. Yeah, I'm hiding right now in a bush in the Waikato. I said before the clue was bush. I'm going to give one more clue right now. Are you ready for the second clue? Yes, Dan. Yeah. Garden.

All right, so you're at the Hamilton Gardens. Garden is the second clue. You're in a bush at the Hamilton Gardens, dressed up in a ghillie suit. And if you find Dan, he's got $1,000 on him, so go hunting. Yeah, okay, cool. We'll get some more clues next. in a ghillie suit and if you find Dan he's got a thousand dollars on him so go hunting. Yeah, okay, cool. We'll get some more clues next but if you do want to see Dan he looks like a bit of an idiot.

You can check out the Edge NZ on TikTok and see Dan. He looked like the top looks like you've got a green afro. You're supposed to pull it down over your face. Yeah, I know

but then I can't see Clint so it's sort of a trade-off really, isn't it? Do I cover my eyes or do I... All right. Dan is currently in Hamilton hiding in a camo ghillie suit, and if you can find him, he has $1,000 cash strapped to him. If you don't know what a ghillie suit is,

it's a big... He looks like a big shaggy dog, but green. Yeah. Basically. You can see photos of him and videos as well on our Egypt Breakfast Instagram page. If you don't have TikTok, you can go and see him there. But yeah, he is in Hamilton Gardens in a bush. Live on the Edge NZ TikTok page.

Dan, has anyone... Morning, guys. Has anyone sort of run past looking for you yet? Because I don't know if you've given great clues. So here we go. So yeah, the clues so far have been a bush and garden. I'm speaking quietly because

now there is, I've had a couple of vehicles drive down and there's people like looking out of the vehicles like driving around. So I think people have clicked that I'm somewhere in the Hamilton Gardens. So you can see a road. Yeah, he's not deep in the gardens. He's near the road.

Well, here's the thing. There's lots of people running around as well because it's a nice area to go for a morning jog. It's crazy. I've had like three or four people just jog past me. None the wiser that there's $1,000 and a crazy man hiding in a bush right next to them. So there's another car approaching now, like with people.

There's two people in it, and I feel like they might be looking for me. I'm going to give away one more clue right now, which is almost going to give away where I am, but it won't give away my exact location. Carpark. So the clues are bush, gardens, car park. Okay. But that's still not going to give away my exact location.

I would say I've been to those gardens before. If you're at the car park in Hamilton Gardens or you know that car park, he's in one of the outer bushes of it because he wouldn't have paid to get in because he's not a Hamilton resident. Well done, Meg. Well, you don't know that, Meg. No. You don't know that.

You wouldn't have wanted to pay because I know you're cheap. And then you would have been like, well, I'm just doing the garden. He could have used some of his thousand bucks. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Yeah, okay. Well, we're going to go to a quick break. Bella, Bella, come back here.

When we come out of this first song at 8 o'clock, if Dan hasn't been found, you will steal the opportunity to play Cash Strapped instead. So Hamiltonians. Guys, there's people looking. There's people looking. There's people looking. There's people looking. You have seven minutes. There's people.

They're not near me, but they're walking down. There's people. There's people looking. They're looking. They're, like, going through bushes. I think this is too random. Okay, so you need to get down here quickly. There's people on the scent.

Okay. Oh, the scent. Wash your body. Yes. They can smell it. Oh, the scent. Wash your body. Yeah. They can smell it. Yeah, I really should have showered. I married at First Sight Australia. I was in for like half of the season,

and then it just got really toxic, and everyone was fighting, and it just wasn't good for my personal mental health. Look, there's also, it's hard to keep up with what's airing in New Zealand and what's going viral online, because Australia are a week ahead of us. But one of the couples, Jackie,

even if you don't watch the show, you'll be able to, I guess, relate to this in a way. Jackie got to see her partner or husband's place for the first time, Ryan. Ryan is notorious for talking about how, where have the men gone, where have the warriors gone? Which means I would guess he is a big, big old nerd. I love nerds.

My husband is a nerd. I like men that have like play gaming and have like nerdy little hobbies. Goku figurines from Dragon Ball Z. Yeah, I like that stuff. But Jackie is not one of those girls. And what you're going to hear here, we're going to get a bounce back

so you can see what she's seen, is he has been done dirty by the producers, to be fair. They have edited it like it's a scary movie of his house where they've zoomed in on lonely tissue boxes. Yeah, she says it looks like he's been living alone like an elderly person for years. And then when she says he's been living alone, they cut to the tissues. And I was like, oh, come on. That's mean. Room to 3343 to the tissues. And I was like, oh, come on. That's mean. Room to 3343 to see what you're about to hear.

There's an Eiffel Tower. There's a sword from the Tower of London. This is a 70-year-old kimono. It's not quite hoarding. It's just like memory. That's a 250-year-old Edo period katana. As you can tell, I'm pretty passionate about this type of stuff. There is at one point that she starts crying.

She starts crying because she sobs. She feels so bad. She's like, oh, he's just, he's just, I just feel bad because he's so confident and he has no idea what this looks like. And it's like, it's just like, it's just his hobbies. She compares him to like one of those like hermit old people who's been living alone for so long,

they don't realise that they're living in their own filth. Yeah, it's not even filth. It's just he has a lot of collectibles. And she cries at one point, which is just, all of it is so dramatised and hilarious. Room to 3343 if you would like to, if you would like to see what she's seen. But I think it could be worse.

He had a bed. He had a duvet. I've seen boys' bedrooms that lack those things. Producer Nex, you flat with four other lads, eh? Sure do. Yeah. Do you want the duvet story? Yeah, go on.

Let us know. I knew there would be a duvet story. No one wants to stay at your house. So flatmate was out on a night out, was doing very well for himself and got to the point in the night with someone else where they go, oh hey, I'm keen to come home now. And he goes, awesome, I'm keen to come too. Shall we go to your place?

Can't go to mine because I don't have a duvet. I've only got a fluffy blanket on my bed. Jesus. How is he? How old is he? 24. Turning 25. This is a mattress with a fluffy blanket. He's got a bottom sheet. You know those classic family blankets?

They're square, they're really fluffy. Like a mink. A mink blanket just sits on the couch. So he's got a mink blanket and a sheet. And a bottom sheet. But not a top sheet. One pillow. One pillow!

I feel like this is what my husband was like when I first went home with him, 21 years old, and it was one pillow. We want to get some calls from you of why you couldn't stay. So you were keen, and then you saw the state of their house or their room, and you were just like, you saw something, and you were like, nah, not today? Ladies, I'm pretty sure this is going to be all about boys' rooms.

I could be proven wrong. In fact, you can even dob yourself in if you are a lad, and you're like, this is why they can't come stay over because your room is atrocious. It's a mattress on the floor with a box of tissues and a TV. Absolutely dire.

I'll wait under there, Jor. 3-3-4-3, fire us a text. What happened or what did you see where you realised, yeah, I'm not staying here. Tori's got a horrible one about her flatmate. You can absolutely dob your flatmates in, please. We'll read that out next. Okay, so in Married at First Sight Australia at the moment, whether you're watching or not,

there is something that I think a lot of people, if you've ever played the game or been a young person in flat-in, can possibly relate to. Jackie went back to her husband Ryan's house for the first time, who is a major nerd, nothing wrong with it, but she started crying because she felt so bad for him.

It was eye-opening to see his home. I just think he's been alone here for seven years and maybe he isn't even aware of how lonely he is. It really reminds me of the elderly because a lot of elderly live in homes where they're alone for seven, 10, 15 years.

The man's just a nerd. He's just a nerd. They say he's got a sword. When you said he's been alone for 10 years, they just do a close-up on a box of tissues.

I was like, the edits that did him so dirty. All right, I've got some amazing texts that I need to rip through here. I knew you would pull through with this one.

Our flatmate didn't change his bed sheets in months. Went away camping. Took the bed sheets off with the bed, which sounds great. I guess you can come home to clean sheets. Nope. When he came back, he put them straight back on. The same ones that were not washed. It's awful. Here we go. I did call out and say I thought it was going to be mostly guys' rooms, but I've been proven

wrong. A girl had no curtains. That's so bad. That wouldn't stop Clint. They were looking for an out. Anything just to get out of their onukins. At 35, I can't have men over because of my large SpongeBob SquarePants collection that also includes a lot of plushies that take up half my queen bed.

My ex-husband had a stretcher as a bed. When we started dating, I was 19. A stretcher. Like a camping stretcher. You know those ones that are just like tarpaulin on two bits of metal? Yeah. Incredible. When I started seeing my now husband, I was living in my friend's garage

sharing a fold-out couch with another friend. Definitely was not bringing him over that night. My best friend went home with a guy whose mattress was on the bedroom floor, single sheet, one blanket. She still went though. Yeah, I guess some of us have lower standards than others where you're like, you know what? I've already spent 25 bucks on an Uber.

This one from Ruby. Went over to stay at a boy's house. Showed up in his room. Was a single bed with a PC computer in the corner. Get some furniture, bro. What we doubt in that room. Why is it that boys at a certain age feel the need to not have any furniture or furnish sheets? It's like, and then they move in with a girl and they're like, this is nice.

There are candles around and there are cushions that are comfortable. This wasn't even a mum's dog in her, well, you know, throwing her son under the bus. My son has tissues and lotion in his room. I understand the tissues are for his nose. But why does he have the lotion? He never has smooth skin. Mum. Yeah, I've got Hayley. Oh, I had to do are for his nose, but why does he have the lotion? He never has smooth skin. Mum. Yeah, I've got Hayley.

Oh, I had to do the edge. Hi, Hayley. Hi there. Hi, Hayley. What did you find when you went back to the house or the room? So, it wasn't actually me.

Yeah? It was my daughter's friend. We were on a girl's trip over to Sydney for my daughter's 21st. And the girls all went out one night, and my friend and I joined up with them. But one of the girls, Grace, she met one of the guys off the boat cruise they'd been on, and she went back to his place for a cheese board and while he was in the bathroom

we were like oh that's nice but while she went to the bathroom she saw he had a vision board in his bedroom and on that vision board it had find a wife so she took one look at that and leaked it.

You know what? You know what? It's not me. It's not me. I'm not going to waste your time. Sorry, man. You've got to keep your eye on your goals and I ain't it. Oh, God.

Another text, an old flatmate had no mattress, just slept on the slats. Come on. Shannara, what happened? You went back to the place and what did you find? Yeah, why couldn't you stay? So when I arrived, he said watch out for the dog poo. And so I thought I'll turn my light on and he was not joking. There was dog poo all over the deck.

And I thought, oh, it's all right. That's just on the outside. Maybe the inside's fine. He literally had to make room for me on the couch. So I got my mum to call me with an emergency to leave. Yeah, yeah. It was gross. Yeah, he's like, oh, I'll just move these things.

You can just, you know, we can make it work here. Oh, and you're like, nah, man. Sorry, my standards are a little higher than that. Thank you very much. Another text when I went to my boyfriend's place. Now husband, his bedroom had pictures all over the ceiling and the walls

of naked women. He must have been so into you to bring you back. Like, to be like, okay, is it worth, is it worth it? Is it worth it?

She's going to see my room. She's going to see it. Yeah, it's like the inside of a, like a ladsie mechanic. It's like the centrefold. Yeah. I like that a lot of people

texting in though are like, no, I know my worth and it's better than that. And I'm sorry. There's also a lot like Jo's mate who your best mate went home with a guy. What did she find?

Yeah. Yeah. And we're not like super young anymore. This like happened a couple of years ago, but for context, I'm 33.

So, but this happened a couple of years ago. She context, I'm 33. So, but this happened a couple of years ago. She went home with this guy like after a night out and she like voice messaged me in the morning

and she was like, dude, there was no furniture in the room. It was just his mattress on the floor covered by like a single blanket

and I was like, but you're less though, right? And she was like, nah. And I was like, but you're less though, right? And she was like, nah. And I was like, oh no. Disappointment in your best mate. Clint Megadan.

Let's go. Did she say he ate the whole damn log? No, and he hates the whole damn lot. That makes more sense. I thought it was like a chocolate log or something and she's like, thought that he was going to save her something. That would piss me off. He ate the whole damn log. Or the whole damn lot and it could be about anything, like a bag log or something and she's like thought that he was going to save her something and he was like that would piss me off he ate the whole damn log or the whole damn lot

and it could be about eating like a bag of chips yeah he ate the whole damn lot it's like cool that would piss me off yeah it's when

the phone of his workday joins us because it is time to play the Gen Z quiz myself Meg and Dan have been quizzing you

I want to say for months but it might be over a year now it's over a year, guys. About things that have happened outside your generation. If you get a perfect score, you clock the game. It's done, it's done, it's over. We'll never play it again.

Five out of five. You've never done it. And luckily, Bella's been doing it for the past couple of weeks. Not luckily. She's worse than you. Well, I thought she's been doing pretty well. Yeah, but... But, excuse me, I think she got one out of five one week.

That's like a snail saying to a slug, hey, he moves pretty quick. Hey, he's doing great. Okay, so let's see if you can do it this week. Dan is here too. Hello, Dan. Hello, guys. Come in my free document.

Good luck. Yes, you need it. Oh, that was loaded. That's rude. Awesome. Okay, here we go. Question number one. What is this iconic theme tune or theme song from?

This is a really sick thing, I'm thinking. Bring it up, bring it up a little bit. What is this? Is this a TV show or a movie? TV show. Okay. I'm going to go with Cars TV show. Cars the TV show.

Cars. That was kind of a weird one. No, no. What Now? Where they get gunged? I used to watch What Now? Yeah, okay. I was a sticky TV Now? Yeah, okay. I was a sticky TV gal, if you know.

Oh, for one. Here we go. Question two. We'll be coming back. Okay, Yaz, here's an easy one. Finish this sentence. We're eating them in Kaito. We love them down in Goa.

We're eating in the marima. We're eating all night long. No. We're always wanting more. Ah! What is that? No, yes. What is that?

What's that from, Dan? I believe that is... So, Carl's written the questions this morning, but I believe that's from a McDonald's ad. I don't even know. It's the Big Mac ad. Yeah, it's the Big Mac ad. It's a McDonald's ad. Absolutely iconic. You knew. It's the Big Mac ad. Yeah, it's the Big Mac ad. It's a McDonald's ad.

Absolutely iconic. You knew that, didn't you, Dan? Out of anyone, Dan, you should know. Wow. I knew it was McDonald's. I didn't quite know it was Big Mac. The Kiwi Burger jingles are really a hell of a song, too. In The Simpsons, Moe owned a bar called...

Ha. No. No, not ha. Come on. Wait, Moe. Moe's. Bar. No. No, not ha. Come on. Wait, Mo. Mo's. Bar. Mo.

Mo's heaven. Is Mr Freely there? Oh, come on. No, you don't get that. You don't get that. Come on. No, absolutely not. Okay, so you have... I wasn't allowed to watch The Simpsons as a child.

Oh, really? Yeah, Mum said it was too inappropriate for mum. Provocative. Were you guys Catholic or something? No. But then it was good because then when mum went away,

dad would let us watch it. Oh my God. Does mum know that? Naughty. Okay, you're O for three. You're looking down the barrel of a down trail, yes? Here we go.

You can get this one, yes? Let's get at least one point on the board. Here's your next question. Who is the character behind this iconic line? Alrighty then. Alrighty then. Irish?

I'm picking up Irish hints. And so I'm going to go with, I can't think of a single Irishman. Okay, he's not Irish. Oh, okay. Clinton! What if she can't think of a single Irishman? Wait, who's the guy that was in... Alrighty Wait, who's the guy that was in Alrighty then Who's the guy that was in Elf?

Oh, Will Ferrell Will Ferrell No Jim Carrey, Ace Ventura Jim Carrey P-A-R-T-E-Y Because I got her I wish that never happened

Yeah, that's disgusting Okay, can you get one on the board? What is the sound, yes? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, a lightsaber, a lightsaber. Yes, oh my God. And it's weird, because I actually had money on me winning this one, so I've lost a lot of money. Oh, who are you betting with?

Nepia, producer Nepia. Oh, Nepia, good man to make that bet. That's a safe bet, my buddy. Yaz seems to think that she's the alpha Gen Z around here and I've just got to keep her humble, you know? Oh, you're literally wearing pyjama pants today, King. Excuse me, they're linen. Thank you very much.

One from five, it will be back. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. We are about to do a live game of this. With a share of $50,000. Cash. With the edge cash trapped. Trapped. Dan gave away $500 at 7, $1,000 at 8.

He's been in Hamilton. He's been hard to find. But he has been found leaving Hamilton by Marissa. Morning, Dan. Morning, guys. Yeah, I'm with Marissa, who was very, very quick, seconds after I said I was outside the good George Brewing Co. in Cambridge. She was here within seconds.

Good morning, Marissa. Good morning. So I've explained the rules to you. Clint is going to offer you a cash amount, okay? You can choose to accept that, be safe, and go home with that money, or you can risk it and go for more in my vest that is strapped to me right now full of cash.

Okay, so Clint, what is the amount you want to offer Marissa? Marissa, you're already pretty lucky to just be listening to the edge and then all of a sudden Dan is within like 30 seconds of your location. So luck is on your side but will it run out? Yaz is actually going to throw the offer that Meg was going to give you. Okay, Meg has told me

that we're going to offer you, Marissa, $200. Okay, the offer for you, Marissa, is $200. $200. Mmm. What do you want to do? Sounds pretty good. Yeah. You could walk away with nothing or walk away with $200.

Or you could risk that $200 and there's probably possibly, I'm not going to say probably because I don't know exactly what's in there, more in my vest. Marissa, she can't hear me but don't do it. Oh well, I came here with nothing so I'll do one risk.

She's going to risk it. Hang on, no, no, I don't want to see this happen to you. I'll raise you $250. Okay, she's raised it to $250. $250. Come on, Marissa, come on. That's a nice little pocket sum for the day.

Just rocking up the corner. Risk it, risk it, risk it. Come on, Marissa. You're a real estate agent. I am, I am. Okay, one more risk. Okay, she's going to risk it, guys. I'm going to go into the am. Okay. One more risk. Okay. She's going to risk it, guys.

I'm going to go into the vest. Okay. It's the last cash trapped in Waikato this morning. It's been an amazing morning. Marissa, I'm going into the vest. Okay. I've pulled out a cash figure. Yep.
