This is a podcast from Rover. Oh, morning everyone. Christchurch. Yes. New Plymouth. Yes. Hamilton. Yes.

Marlborough. Napier. Yeah. Parmy. Invercargill. Nelson. Roto-Vegas. Wingsdown.

Pungaday. Wellington. Donners. Yeah. Gizzy. Didn't know you existed out of summer. Oh, yeah, guys. Yeah, we're shredding for R&V.

Down wait to see you on the hill. Yeah, whatever, mate. We'll see you in December. So for now, we've got these. Wait, is he talking about us? Oh, come on. That can't be us, surely. Okay, one more mate. We'll see in December. So for now, we've got these. Wait, is he talking about us? Oh, come on. That can't be us, surely. Okay, one more try. Come on. It's Clint Megandad.

Actually, it's just Clint. Don't know what Megandad are up to, but I see a text, Marilyn, saying, hurry up, Meg, we're waiting. Yeah, so am I. Should we all just wait? No, let's just wait. You slack little bees.

Oh my God, what's happening, Freddie? Okay, so peek behind the curtain. We were in a conversation with another radio show. With Tegan from Mime. So she's late too. So she'll be late. She's not just us. Yeah, if you don't know,

like half of the radio stations that exist in New Zealand are all within about 15 metres walking distance from the next here. Yeah, she's awesome. So it's not just... But in fairness, Clint, in fairness, I was racing back, but it's Meg that distracted me into the conversation. Oh, that sounds right. Oh, actually, I was just having a conversation

definitely later on my own terms. Do you want to hear something horrific to start the show? Oh, it's a fart, because I don't know if I've got the stomach for it. No, it's so much worse than that. Oh no. Well then no. We're all parents

and sometimes our kids find it hard to go to sleep. There was a news story that you would have missed that I just caught and I was like, what the hell? And parents were like,

oh look, there's no monsters in the room. There's no monsters. Look, we'll even check under the bed and they looked under the bed and came face to face with a man they didn't know. Oh my god.

I would die. In New Zealand? In America. I would die. That must happen once a week in America. Oh, I would die. There's no monster in your bed Timmy. Let me show you. And then you look under and you just see these eyes staring at you from under the bed. Oh my god. Belong to a structure. Although, if we can make it, because it's not funny,

but I need to make it funny in my head to survive this. How scared would that burglar have been when he heard the little kid go, Mom, there's a monster under the bed? That would be like, shit. Shit, shit, shit. Hiding under a bed is the worst hiding place. Never go under a bed. I mean, we saw that we're taken, didn't we?

Yes. Yes, we learned that, I thought. Yeah, she got dragged out. Sorry, that's just me trying to diffuse that so I don't, you know, go into a bed. I mean, we saw that we're taken, didn't we? Yes. Yes, we learned what I thought. Yeah, she got dragged out. Sorry, that's just me trying to diffuse that so I don't, you know, I go to a deep spiral, Clint. Deep, deep, deep, deep, deep spiral. Yeah. Imagine if that monster was the toilet monster as well.

Oh, God, that stuffed my kid up. Don't do that. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. I'm about to get into a 6 a.m. throwback. I'm trying to find a bit of a song that will give you a G up. And I had a song stuck in my head. Okay.

Oh, Sunshine. Is that it? Yeah, yeah. Hey-oh, na-na-na. Oh, by Dario. And I've never... You're saying Dario G in Sunshine, and it still wasn't like, yes!

It was like, still don't even know. I had to start playing it to be like, yes. That's the one. Yeah, we were, one time, me and you, very drunk to that song. Were we? With a bunch of people, yeah. I don't think you were there, Dan, sorry.

No, you were talking about it yesterday. I must say. Yeah, at a Christmas party years ago, Clint. There's nothing worse than having a song stuck in your head that you don't know The name to True And you're just trying

To get it out of your head But you can just hum it Into Google Can you though I don't think that works Every time Sometimes Yeah

Depends how good Your humming is And how much you remember Here we go Meg's country Hey oh na na na There's a my na na Hey oh na na na

Hey Yeah Okay so if Google gets this. Sunshine, tweet Dario. Brilliant. My God. Unbelievable. A.I.

Yeah. Isn't A.I. just incredible that it got that pitchy mess? What if you did the beginning? Okay. What if you did the beginning of the song? Okay, let me try again. Okay, okay. Okay.

Dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, dun. I've forgotten the... That's the point. That's the only bit I had stuck. Yeah, it's not Nantau Raga Wee by Tong Chai McIntyre.

Okay, let's play the real song. This is the bit I had stuck in my head. Woo! Days. Happy Friday, everybody. Happy Friday. Dan had an awkward run-in with someone at, was it Chemist Warehouse?

No, it was just at a chemist down the road from my house. My goodness, the man had a zinger. They referenced a part of the show. Dan hasn't told us, but he said they absolutely got him before he left. Yeah, they recommended a product I could use. Oh, God, it was embarrassing. You've got to be careful.

Sometimes we forget when we're talking on the show that people actually listen to it. Yeah. Yeah. A lot of people listen to the show, apparently. It's got one of the longest intros of all time. This is very, very long. Keeps going.

There's no real start to the song. Oh, so we'll just shut the whole thing? Sorry, okay. Doris, do your thing. Clint, Megan, Dan. Let's go. Dan has something

he would like to share in Coffee Catch Up and I really hope the person that did manage to embarrass you is listening this morning. Yeah, I, wow. Which I think they will be because it sounds like they listen a lot. They're a podcast listener, so listen,

I don't know if they listen to the full show podcast or just our OnlyFans, which is another podcast that sits alongside our normal show podcast. If you text pod3343, we'll send you back the link. But this was on Monday's podcast. We were talking about someone that had messaged us, and I was reading out a message that we'd received from this listener, and I got one of the words wrong. I think there's a clip there, Clint.

End of last year, my brother came over from Seattle, and while here, he attended my daughter's rectical. Recital. I was like, holy shit, man. I've got a close family, but none of my families are doing that. Damn, pre-rec. Yeah, so it was not my finest work. I love how you quickly recital.

Like, we would forget we didn't just use a reticle. Anyway, so I went to the chemist. There's a chemist down the road from my house, and I've been to a couple of times over the last week or so. And the guy there listens to the podcast, and he's mentioned that he's a listener of the podcast. Yesterday I went in and I needed some nose spray for my son, George.

He's got a blocked up nose at the moment. And you know that stuff you get, it's like saline spray and you spray it up their nose and it loosens up the stuff. Anyway, I went up to the counter and this guy's in his, I'd say, maybe late 20s, early 30s. And I took it up to the counter and go,

just this today, and he was laughing and smiling. And I was like, oh, God, what's he going to say here? And he goes, you know what? I thought you were here to buy some rectical spray. He literally, he's a chemist. And the thing is, the funny thing is, this is never going to end because the chemist now knows we're talking about it because he will listen to this.

Hello, chemist. Hello, chemist. Do you know what? Please do it. Please continue. If Clint and I can ask anything of you, please continue to embarrass our friend. He even said,

he even was like, I think I've got some out the back. I'm going to get somebody like turned around. Like he's toying with. This is a guy that's very earnest, very well educated. I will drive out

to see this man now. He sold me. Yeah. I'd also be like, I know it's a funny joke, but just keep your voice down. Luckily there was no one else. Not everyone knows you're joking.

There was no one else in the chemist. I don't think he'd do it if there was other people in the chemist. But yeah. I'd just be like, oh, in reference to that podcast mistake. Yeah, yeah. That's a funny joke there, Andrew.

Yeah. But to be fair, like I want to go back to him now because he's funny and nice. I like that about him. You know, that he's kind of boring down with me and, like, he finds it funny.

It's a little bit embarrassing. How much was the rectal spray? I didn't get the prescription in the end. I said I might pop back. Yeah. It's always good to have in the cupboard. I imagine Meg would have some. He goes, an ailment for everything.

I've got plenty of that if you need it. If anybody on the show has rectal spray, it's probably Meg. No, how's this going back on me? You're the one that said it. I've got nothing to do with this story. Yes, true. No, I just remember the time that you went

into a chemist yourself and asked for an enema and they gave you a family pack. I got a family pack just at the end of the one. And remember the Air Force machine was down

so they had to like call for the manager over the speaker. Has anybody got a price on a family pack of enemas? Family pack of enemas. Meg Mansell on the radio wants them.

She's using them all tonight. We'll get a scandal update next. Yeah, it's so bizarre. Yesterday I was having my morning shower and I was thinking, hasn't Megan Fox had a baby by now? Isn't she due for a baby? And sure enough, well, this morning we have an update on that story.

So I'm going to let you know. It's like a weird sixth sense of her. Yeah, it was. It was all tingly. I was like, oh, that's very strange. That's just now. Yeah, so I'll tell you what's happening with Megan Fox and her baby.

Sedge. Clint, Megan, Dan. Stinky boot. Why isn't that working? Team, hold on. Scandal with Meg. Wrong buttons. Oh, poor Megan Fox.

I genuinely feel for her because nobody at any, nobody needs this. When they're nine months pregnant, when they've just given birth, a really strange thing happened to me yesterday. I was in the shower and I was like, wait, Megan Fox, I thought in my head Megan Fox is having her baby,

which would be amazing. If we find out she had her baby on the 27th of March, sixth sense connection to Megan Fox. Why were you thinking about Megan Fox in the her baby, which would be amazing. If we find out she had her baby on the 27th of March, sixth sense connection to Megan Fox. Why were you thinking about Megan Fox in the shower? Really? I know. Come on, mate. You want to be the first?

Shit, I'm really. But honestly, stop sexualising her. She's actually a really talented actress. And also, I was obviously thinking about a celebrity that's pregnant, and I remember thinking it was funny because I was trying to get pregnant when she announced she was. And I remember thinking how cool it would be if I was, I don't know, it was so dumb, but pregnant at the same time as her. And then I was thinking about, I was looking at my stomach, I'm like, I'm pregnant. I was like, oh my God, Megan Fox is pregnant.

I haven't heard about her in a very long time. Yeah. Well, so bizarrely, this morning, this morning, one of her exes, Brian Austin Green, the father of her children. 90210. Correct. Just posted screenshots of Machine Gun Kelly texting him. God, why do celebrities do that? On his Instagram stories. They're deleted now.

I got them. Don't worry. Okay, so Machine Gun Kelly. So he's put them up and then he's thought better of. Oh, Megan Fox has cast a spell on him, which I hope she has. Take their shit down now.

Or she's messaged him going, take them down, Brian. Come on. Yeah, yeah. More likely cast a spell than Megan Fox. Megan's got it. So yeah, so I've got it.

So she was due in March. How weird. She is due in March. That's what the guesses were. So looks like Brian is on the same wavelength as me and wondering when his baby, not his, but the half-brother or sister is going to be born. Who has custody?

Does she or are they sharing it? Speaking of foxes, I don't know who has custody of the other kids, but Machine Gun Kelly, who I thought had split with her, anyway, he has been texting Brian saying this. Stop asking when our child is going to be born. You the feds.

Don't know what that means. And he added a rat emoji and a police officer emoji. Quit calling TMZ and focus on that apology you owe me for speaking on my name in public. You chose the wrong one to F with, but swore. Mr. Child actor, go back to serial commercials. And then Brian posted them and said, I didn't know that child actor was something bad.

Careful. Oh, so he does? That's interesting. Because I was always like, I wonder why Megan and Austin Green didn't work out. So Brian's just been texting me like, hey, Megan, so have you had the baby yet? Have you had that baby yet?

And my friend's like, I'm done hearing from your ex asking about it. He'll find out when he finds out. But what's wrong? I'm of the other side. What's wrong with asking about your ex's baby? Maybe. What do you mean? No, but maybe because he says something.

Why does he have any right to her partner's new baby? It's not a right. Maybe he's just being nice. He's being nice. But it sounds like the response is like he's like, you're just going to run back

to TMZ and give them all the info. Yeah, he's calling him a rat and saying stop going to TMZ. Oh, so he's, but is he actually doing that? But even so, if he's consistently asking

and she hasn't replied, leave her alone. I completely agree. I wouldn't want my ex messaging my husband saying, has Megan's baby been born? It's got nothing to do with you. It's weird that he's posted like, reposted the text. The screenshots. That is weird.

There's actually so much more going on than we understand. This doesn't really make sense. It's because we don't have all the pieces. That's true. Hey, nominate someone to get a wonderful Wednesday morning text wonderful to 3343 to enter. Yeah, maybe he was just trying to work out, like, if he was going to buy blue or pink because he's trying to get a gift for the kid.

I'm just at Farmer's Megan, and I'm just wanting to know if I get a blue tractor or a pink one. Yeah. You can piss off. Yeah, piss off. Just so I can let TMZ know. You'll know when the baby's born when the baby's born. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, anyone listening go to Camp America? Was it an absolute shit show? Because Meg, if you don't know the story, Meg can recap before you next. She went as like a leader, teaching something that she had no qualifications in. And we've just found out that Soph, who's helping out behind the scenes producing this morning, is leaving us to go to Camp America. Wait until you find out what her title is. The second word is

specialist and she's never done the thing that she's going to Camp America for. I'd love to know if anyone went and you'd be like, none of the leaders knew what they were doing at all. Sophie, unfortunately, we are going to lose. She's an edgy here and has been filling

in on and off behind the scenes as a producer. Doing a great job. She does a lot of stuff. She's like a jack of all trades. Yeah, indeed. And she is leaving our shores to head over to America to camp America for how long, babe? I'll be gone for like three and a half months. Yeah, that was I think about the same as me in the end,

and then you travel a bit afterwards. What is Camp America? Because I've always wondered. You would have been great if it did. I always thought it was like a camp where you go on flying foxes and shit. But it's not like that, is it? No, there is.

There are lots of different camps in America. Over their summer holidays, a lot of people decide to send their kids to camp. We don't really do it here as much in New Zealand. So it's not like a school camp? No, it's a summer camp that they go to, and you don't go with your school friends, although your school friends might go to the same one as you.

And there are some that are, like, say, poorer camps, and there are some that are richer camps. And I know me and my brother did at the same time. You get put into a camp, depending on your interview and your skills. He got put into a camp that I wanted, which was a kind of poorer camp because I wanted really grateful kids and I got put into, I think, one of the most snobby ones. I was going to say I'd want the rich camp

because it'd be cooler stuff. Oh, yeah, cooler stuff, but worse kids. Very, very... These kids, and I mean, these were the rich kids. Rich, rich. I know there was one of them that her dad was co-owner of Nike and she was in my bunk. Like, rich, rich, rich, rich. Rich, rich. I know there was one of them that her dad was co-owner of Nike and she was in my bunk. Like rich, rich, rich, rich, rich, rich, rich.

And then he was sending her to this camp to try and give her a wealth of knowledge and experience from leaders who had zero. Yeah, and so here I am and I wanted to get into camp. So I put down every single thing I'd done in my life, every single thing I'd achieved in my life, which wasn't much at 18, Clint. And so one thing I did put down, I just

left out the age, but when I was 12, I went to the Nationals for aerobics at Intermediate. I think there were about three teams. Here's the thing, look, when you're going to the Nationals when you're that age, I'd argue it doesn't really... I agree, Dan, I do. I doesn't really. I agree, Dan.

I do. I didn't say I was 12 when I went. When they rang me, they said, we're really interested. We've got an all-girls camp. And we think aerobics is a really cool fitness thing for them. They do gym. They do weights. They do all these things.

They thought aerobics would be really fun. And you'd be able to lead that? And you went, yep, definitely. Oh, yes, I said absolutely. I love that you had the confidence back then because I think now if they'd asked you, you would kind of be like, oh. Very true.

I think I was a very much different kid. I was a lot more, you could either say confident or egotistical, I think, as a teenager than I am now. I've lost it all. Working with you two has battered me down. Oh, yes. Oh, my God, have I been battered down. I think just the show just bats any confidence

out of anyone. So what did you say you were good at and then tell us what role they've given you because I'd love to know how they got from your interview to your title.

I would guess you'd be doing sports because you run the running club here at the Edge. No, no, no. No. Okay, so I put down dance

because I liked to dance growing up. I put down photography even though I've never really picked up a camera because I run the social media here. I put down dance, because I liked to dance growing up. I put down photography, even though I've never really picked up a camera, because I run a social media here. I put down radio, that was a skill. And I put down a lifeguard, because I have my first aid certificate. Yeah, yeah, cool. Okay, so out of those four things,

hmm, what could we get Sophie to teach people at Camp America? Lifeguard, aerobics, still fitness. I still would say fitness would be a lifeguard, probably. What are you a specialist in at Camp America. Lifeguard, aerobics. I still would say fitness or to be a lifeguard, probably. What are you a specialist in at Camp America, Sophie? I am a podcasting specialist. And what was the last podcast that you did? I haven't ever done a podcast. Brilliant.

Oh, I really hope they send you to the snobby one and all the snobby kids get to podcasting from someone that's never done it. Yeah, they'll sit there and go, hold on a second, do you know, Alex Earl is my neighbour from Call Her Daddy, so what do you know about podcasting?

I know that you need a microphone. Yeah. You need a mic? I was just going to say, I can tell you who's making the show podcast today, Sophie, you're up. Yeah, she's the expert. She's the specialist, you could say.

It's freaking good on you, though. It got you the spot. And when do you leave for Camp America? In May, end of May. Okay, so you've got about just over a month to learn podcasting to the point that you can teach it to kids. Producer Carl, just, you're wracking his brain. He's got his own podcast and, you know, he uploads ours.

I've got a whole company that makes podcasts. Come on, you're racking his brain. He's got his own podcast and, you know, he uploads ours. I've got a whole company that makes podcasts. Come on, you're in. Yeah, yeah. If anything, you might want to take Carl with you as your associate or assistant. I mean, it's much quicker to learn podcasting than, say, rocket science or something. So at least you put that down. Clint, Meg and Dan. Appreciate the people on text who obviously listen to us and their Javas.

Jess did win the full 10K. She dropped the pin closest for Edge Safehouse. I thought they were announcing that today. So apologies. They've already done it yesterday. Yeah, good on her. So 10K. Wow.

Well done. That's so cool. Can I get, get, get to know, know, know you better, better, baby. I want to get to know you better. Alright, who are we getting to know this morning? We're getting to know Sammy. Sammy's a hairdresser. I think we've spoken to you before, Sammy, haven't we? I know you, Sammy. Good morning getting to know Sammy. Sammy's a hairdresser. I think we've spoken to you before, Sammy, haven't

we? I know you, Sammy. Good morning! Good morning, Sammy! You're definitely not a first-time caller. You're Virgo. You're currently going through chemo. I think that's what I've talked to you about. I'm sure I remember that conversation, Sammy, and you had an awesome attitude around it. Yes! How are you going with it?

I mean, probably... I have won! Yes! I have won. Shut up, Sammy. Have you actually? Yes. Yes, I've got two more chemos, one today and then one in two weeks, and then I'm free. Oh, that is amazing.

I remember talking to you last year about you going through chemo and we were, like, blown away by your, like, impositive attitude and great attitude towards it. Incredible. Oh, that's such great news. Are you saying you've won like you're in remission or you've just managed to get through chemo? So my cancer's really, it shows numbers.

Yeah. So my number's at one. So anything below five is cancer free. Wow. That's incredible. So good. What a start to the year. I'm so happy to hear from you

How epic It's bloody awesome It's like you can't You can't give your cards Back to the dealer You've just got to Play your hands you know Oh wow

And I think a positive Having a positive attitude Goes a long way I'd imagine Going through chemo Your mental health Affecting your physical How long has it been

How long have you been Doing chemo again Sammy How many months Six months Ish Ish Oh my god I can't imagine How difficult that must be affecting your physical, you know? How long has it been? How long have you been doing chemo again, Sammy? How many months? Six months-ish. Oh, my God. I can't imagine how difficult that must be. Oh, I'm so happy, Sammy.

I'm really happy. It's all right. I look hot, bald, so it's not that much of a matter. I bet you do. I bet you do. That's a good question. I bet you do. And you have a lot of fun with it. You're a hairdresser as well.

You also, like, I imagine going through all the new stages of pixie cuts and short cuts and stuff. Yeah, you're like our producer, Carl you also like I imagine going through all the new stages of pixie cuts and short cuts and stuff yeah you're like our producer car hot wind bald okay well after all that

incredible like meaningful deep and lovely chat I'm going to ask you a real vapid question brilliant so there's nothing wrong

with vapid of course we we ask the question and then we'll we will answer on your behalf what is the best goss that Sammy has ever gotten

and sitting in her hairdressing chair while she's standing? Because people are over sharers in that chair sometimes, huh? I reckon she's heard of a breakup

in a relationship before the other half of the relationship. So she's had a girl sitting in her chair or a guy maybe and he's gone, I've gone,

oh, it's just not working out and I think we're at the point where we need to break up. I just need to, you know, get the guts to do it. I think that's what she's kind of heard. I think she's had someone in her chair who has told Sammy that she is sleeping with a married man who is planning, and she's like, but he's going to leave her.

He says he's going to leave her. And so every time you catch up, you're like, how's things going with the married guy that you're still sleeping with? Okay. It's a lot to share the head rest of that. I'm going to do the same sort of line, but I'm going to be more specific. Okay. She has heard about somebody sleeping with another person,

but her other client is the partner of that person. So she's got a crossover. Oh, my God. So she knows that one of her other partners is been cheated on with one of her other clients. Yeah, that's what I think is happening there. If you get that, I reckon that's worth two points if Meg, if she's actually had that. All right, Sammy, what's the best ghost you've gotten?

Meg, you're pretty bloody close. Shut up. You're kidding me. So I had a wife come in and the husband, she's going, oh yeah, my husband's going to pay for my haircut. Showed me a photo. One of my other clients' boyfriend was also paying for her hair that same day. Oh, come on.

I win that. I win that. Unbelievable. So you've got two clients and they're effectively like sleeping with each other, but they don't know. And you're the only one that knows and could spill all the tea to both of them. Yeah, I mean, hairdresser confidentiality, I suppose, was just spicy. Way to go, Meg. Two points for me.

Thank you very much. Good one, Dan. When did this two-point thing come in, you idiot? I mean, it deserves it, though. That is very, very out of left field. Hey, Sammy, you have the best. Tell me one more time when chemo's over. When's the last one?

Two, on the 11th. On the 11th of April? Yes, ma'am. Okay, I'm going to put it in my, and we'll do a shout. You listen every morning, don't you? Of course. Yeah, yeah, duh, duh, duh. We'll do a big shout. Big day, 11th. Sending lots of love, Sammy.

That's made our week here in the news. Awesome. You're well done. Catch us. See you, babe. And we'll send you a voucher as well. Join Zeb Rewards. Get 20 cents off per litre and a free coffee. Also, if you already have Zeb Rewards, even if you don't join, if you've already got it, you already have a voucher for 20 cents off in the app.

That's so great. And it's not just one. It's actually three. You get three 20 cents off a litre vouchers in the app. So either go and check your app or get amongst it and join Zed Rewards. This was actually after we received a DM from a listener talking about how their loving relationship

was lacking intimacy. Yeah, so we want to have that spark back, basically. She's not alone and we want to hit the reset button. It's the 9th of April. Just one night for some connection if you need to break the ice with it. And it's safety in numbers, right? So it's a day where everybody can kind of have it top of mind.

Intimacy, even if it's just having a conversation with your other half. It's been a few weeks since you've maybe been intimate. This is an excuse this day to kind of chat about it at least. And there was a feeling that it was only for people who had lost that spark and needed to get back on the horse. Turns out maybe not so.

Maybe it's just another excuse for those who are thriving to continue to thrive as well after Meg decided to place a call yesterday that you may have missed unbeknownst to me to my mum, Christine.

I don't know if it'll be mum's thing. What's the date? No mother questions. She's like, I'll put it in my diary. When? You just tell me when.

Dad won't say no. Yeah. Okay, so Dad's in and Mum's looking to pencil the date. Yeah. Great. Do we have a date? It's a couple of Wednesdays away, 9th of April. I got your diary there, Christine.

So 9th of April, I have to have a big bang. Yes, Christine, in your words. Correct. Yeah. Not have to. If you want to, but I don't doubt that it would be. And you should run it by Dags. Obviously, he has to be in on the idea as well.

Oh, my gosh. I wouldn't even have to say anything. I'd only have to give him the come on, and it would only take two seconds and he'd be in like There he goes, okie dokie I'll see you tomorrow I'd avoid her on the night though You cancelled family dinner that night

Isn't it family dinner Wednesdays? Yeah it is It used to be, yeah It's dinner for John I've got my diary out and I'll just write six nights of April, okay? That's all we need. Make sure you put it in John's diary too. See you.

Yes, please. Word for word. It's hard to hear because there's a lot of music being played in the background. You'll also hear another voice. That's my brother. I'm cutting down the hours of the day, mate. What is it? Are you waiting until the 9th of April? Yeah. He's waiting.

Saving myself. Piss off. What's happening on the 9th? I'm going to bed for about three hours, mate. Three hours? Best time of my life, eh? You couldn't last that long. No, yeah. Does it get better with age?

Yeah, he can. Yep. Bevan, yeah, happy birthday. You'll be surprised what your dad's like in bed, Bevan. I love Clint, Meg and Dan. Let's give away some cash. Win a share of $50,000. Cash.

With the edge. Cash strapped. Strapped. Seven and eight this morning, your chance to win cash. All you have to do is let us know why you're all strapped for cash, and Meg might just give it to you. When Mike is playing this morning, Mike, what do you need money for? I need money for my daughter's first birthday.

Oh, how exciting. What are you getting for her? What's the plan? First birthday, I remember that very clearly. Yeah, what do you get for her first birthday? Yeah, we're going to get her a Little Nations pink trike. Isn't it funny? Me and Dad

just the other day were talking about trikes and how for their first birthdays, both of our kids got a little bike thing. My three-year-old is only just using it now. Like, it's sat in the shed for two years. But it's a real thing to get for a first birthday. I think, yeah, they need to be walking first right before they even think about adding wheels to the mix.

You're a bit of a judge. All right, Mike. A trike for her. You want to get her a little nice one, I imagine. Yeah. And then you can also, you know what, why don't you go and get her something from me as well. I'm going to give you $180 to get that trike and then also a little something extra from Miggy, Miggy her favourite. Alright, Michael. I mean, you could get her

a pretty crappy trike for that. Or you could get her the top of the range gold trike. Oh, is that the top of the range? Shows how long it's been since Dan's bought one. Top of the range. I reckon I could get a good one for $180. Okay, okay. What do you want to do?

I'm not on the trike market. I'll go with $180. Okay, okay. What do you want to do? I'm not on the track, Mark. I'll go with Meg today. Okay, nice. Okay. Good luck, Meg. Okay. $180. All yours, Mike.

That's a decisive man. He didn't even really come enough. You're welcome. He goes, that's what I want. I don't want to disappoint my daughter. It's covered her birthday. No, I don't want to disappoint her. Okay, well, let's find out what happened. Oh, God. Come on, please. Have low, Dan. It's covered her birthday. No, I don't want to disappoint her. Okay, well let's find out what would have happened

had you have gone. Please have low, Dan. Okay, here we go. Cash strapped to Dan. Please have low, please have low. It's good news. If you'd gone with me, Mike, you would have got $60 and that's a really bad track.

Oh, thank God. Oh my God, it's a good day. It's a good day. It's a good day, It's a good day. It's a good day, Mike. It's a good day. The thing is, Meg, you can go into the weekend now knowing that you had a win. I had a win.

Thank you, Mike. Unless you lose at 8 o'clock. We both had a win today. We both had a win. Happy birthday to your daughter. Yeah. Have a good one, Mike. Thank you.

Enjoy the weekend, bro. I appreciate you listening. Back again at 8. Everybody wins, but Dad. My favourite type. Yeah. Hey, I'm used to losing. So you know what? Oh! Appreciate you listening. Back again at eight. Everybody wins, but Dad. My favourite type. Yeah. Hey. I'm used to losing.

So you know what? It's fine with me. I'm just used to it, you know? There we go. All right. One of our favourite things to do once a week has been beat that coincidence. We love hearing about the coincidental things happening in your world. And then we like when someone else has a coincidence that can beat yours because it's even more uncanny that that would happen to two people

at the same time in the same place. I think there's still a lot of confusion about what the definition of a coincidence is as well. You can do a refresher for yourself. Clint, Nick and Dan. Some of the best coincidences that we've had in the past are these. I used to live in Canada and I came back and was home for about a year, went to a festival by myself for New Year's

and bumped into somebody that I knew through social media. We'd never actually met in person. And he happened to be there with people that I knew from Canada home and we realised that his dad and my dad are really, really, really good friends. That's the chance. And we had no idea. A few years ago, my husband and I, we were living in Sydney, had a flat in Bondi.

We broke the lease to move to Ireland, so we got some people in. Yeah. And there was an Irish guy and his girlfriend. Anyway, we went over to Ireland and we got another house in Galway and had got flatmates in and it turned out to be this guy's sister. Okay, so you rented out your house, and some dude rented it. Yeah.

And then when you went over to Ireland, it turns out the dude who was renting your house, his sister was flirting with you, and you didn't know him. Oh yeah, that's the best. That's crazy. Yeah, there's been a lot come through. It's sort of become a thing on the show, hasn't it?

We've got a page on Facebook called The Edge Podcast Fam. If you text fam to 3343, you can join us. It's an exclusive group. Someone messaged us the other day saying it was actually Chantelle Charlton. And she said, end of last year, my brother came over from Seattle.

And while here, he attended my daughter's recital. While outside waiting for her, my brother looked to his left and it was his neighbour from Seattle standing next to him at the daughter's recital. Yeah, that's crazy.

That's unbelievable, right? Who's at the recital to see somebody else's kid perform? Someone else's kid. Like, the amount of things that have to line up is unbelievably weird. That's when you're like, man, the world is way smaller than you think. Yeah. We've had quite a few come through our podcast fan page, actually. And I think they're getting better now that more and more people are starting to realise

what a coincidence is. We were getting a lot of birthday ones, and I guess you were impressed by those initially. Now the bar's gotten a bit higher. Yeah. I mean, a birthday one, I feel like there's less chance that needs to happen. Unless it's like you and both of your siblings are all born on the exact same day on different years. So you, your sister and your brother all have the exact same birthday

but you're years apart. That would be like very strange. Still not impressing Dan though. Look at him. I know. Honestly, I don't even know why we do this segment. I don't even know what the chances of that would be but it would be out the gate. Like you and two siblings all having your birthday on August 12th.

Yeah. And you're not triplets. That's okay. I just want bigger stories. Yeah. I want something like you were sitting on a bus next to someone. Okay. You got talking.

And it turns out after a long chat that they were your long lost sister. You know, like that they're not happening. I guarantee you that would have happened somewhere. I guarantee you. Shall we take Kirstie next and see if that impresses Dan? Yeah, okay. And if you want to play Beat That Coincidence, what is yours? The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast.

Yeah, we've got Kirstie on the phone who's been sitting patiently waiting to impress us with her story. Hi, Kirstie. Hi. Okay. Go free with your coincidence. Okay, so I was 17 and dating this guy called Brendan and he had a flatmate called Andrew and we all got along really well and we used to go out socially as a group and stuff and Brendan actually moved out of the flat and I went with him

and Andrew and I lost contact. We always kind of had a connection and nothing ever happened. It wasn't the right time but we were always attracted to each other. Fast forward four years, Andrew was living internationally and came back to New Zealand. He'd been in the country for a couple of years. I'd split up with Brendan and Andrew and I ended up meeting at the pub in St. Patrick's Day, randomly, four years later.

I saw him across the bar, literally ran across through all the people and jumped into his arms and went, oh, my God, I'm so happy I found you again. And he's now my husband, and we've been together for 19 years, married for 16. Oh, that's fate. That's given me chills. That's fate. Fate or fake?

No, fate. That's fate. That's fake, Kirsty. That never happens. That could be me chills. That's fake. Fake or fake? No, fake. That's fake. That's fake, Kirsty. That never happened. That could be a movie. That made my eyes water. Wait, so the whole time you were with Brendan, were you actually into Andrew when you were young?

Oh, sad for Brendan. I mean, no, definitely. I mean, it was definitely a physical attraction, but obviously, it probably just wasn't right, you know. As long as you didn't. Yeah. but obviously it probably just wasn't right you know but yeah he's just

Andrew's just the most amazing man and yeah we've literally been inseparable ever since and I'm just I'm so lucky that we found each other again

was Brendan there at the wedding giving a speech oh hell no yeah stuff Brendan he's dead to us oh wow

okay let's go to Shaz as well Shaz as well. Shaz, what's your coincidence? Good morning, Tame. Morning. Morning, Shaz. How are you guys?

Yeah, really good. What's your coincidence? Sputtering us up. Let's go, Shaz. Yeah. About 15, 20 years ago, it's actually my brother's story, so about 15, 20 years ago,

my granddad and my nana had a house in Taupo, Lake Taupo. Someone broke in and stole my granddad's boat and all his fishing gear. No one ended up finding anything. And then about a year or two ago, my brother was out fishing on Lake Taupo, saw something shimmering at the bottom of the lake, jumped in about four metres deep of water and pulled up a fishing rod and my granddad's name engraved in it. Shut up! How long

between losing it and finding it? 20 years? Oh, it would be 15 years give or take. Wow. And Lake Taupo is a deep lake.

Very vast. 100%. Wow. Yeah, yeah, 100%. That's incredible. Pretty crazy. Yeah. And my grandad passed

in the last year so that fishing rod was at the funeral and all the story was told so it's pretty special. Wow. Did grandad year, so that fishing rod was at the funeral and all the story was told, so it's pretty special. Oh, wow. Did granddad ever know that his fishing rod was found,

or had he passed beforehand? Yeah, no, no, he knew. Oh, good. How did you know it was his? It was engraved or something? Yeah, she said engraved with his name. Yeah, it was named engraved in it. That's amazing. Oh, that's so cool,

because I've never known anyone to engrave a fishing rod. That's so special. Yeah. Good on him. That's my granddaddy engraves everything of his. Wow, that's so cool. That's really handy when you lose stuff. This is pretty crazy from Brittany.

My boyfriend turned out to be my son's, sorry, my mum's ex-boyfriend's son. So I imagine. Wait, wait, wait, wait. That's confusing. That's too confusing. My boyfriend. So it'd be like if one of your parents

ended up getting a new partner, and then they had a son. No, I've lost me. Okay, let's say your mum remarries. She did. Well, to another person. Yeah, so Graham, right? And then Graham has a son.

Graham had a son. Yeah, yeah, he does. And then you and Graham's son started dating. Isn't that incestuous? No, so you end up bringing your new boyfriend home and going, Mum, this is my new boyfriend home and going, mum, this is my new boyfriend. And then she goes,

wait, that's my partner's kid. And then all of a sudden they're like, that's your stepbrother. Even though there's nothing wrong with it. Yucky.

So you'd be dating your stepbrother or sister. Some people are into that, I think. Yeah, that's a little bit weird. Oh, I think it's okay

to find your cousin attractive acting on it. It is legal though. It's legal in New Zealand. You can marry a cousin here. What a statement

to have on radio. I'll stand by that. Remember when you said you had a hot cousin and then your cousins all started calling the show to find out which one was me? Even the ugly ones.

Daniel. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh my gosh. It's going down April 9th. Yeah, life getting busy. Intimacy can take a back seat, but if the spark feels lost, it does not mean it's gone. We're going to hit the reset button April 9th.

Connect for one night just for connection. Let's come together with the big pad. Yeah. Oh, you know you did the naughty thing. That's written the right way. Thank you very much, Clint. Okay, April 9th. I am in very extensive research here that I have done to explain why April 9th is a good day.

Oh, yeah. I don't think it needs explanation, but Meg's gone above and beyond on a scruffy piece of crumpled up paper. She's handwritten some facts. Yeah, because I think Meg was like, right, so Wednesday week, that's when we're going to schedule it for everyone who wants to participate. Yep. And we're like, so why is April 9th significant? Meg was like, leave it with me.

I'll find a reason. One, it's hump day. So give me a little, where's the bell? Who's got it? Oh, so yeah, it's a Wednesday hump day. Yeah, of course. There we go. So hump day.

So I thought that was good. Hold on, hold on. Thank you. Okay. This was a stretch. Dried milk was invented on that day. Oh, I'm not going to ding that. Wait, yeah, wait.

Are you still explaining the tie? Breasts. No, I wouldn't ding that. I'm not ding that. Okay, that's fine. That one's all right. It's a weak tie. Okay, this song was released by the Beatles.

Okay. Ticket to Ride. She's got a ticket to ride. Come on. Oh. I'll give it to you. Riding. Yeah, that was a bit of a crappy ding.

Okay. So in 1968 on April 9th, Wayne Connolly was the first ever to score a penalty shot. If it was in 1969, you'd have a ding. It was a penalty shot, but he was the first ever to score the penalty shot. So I thought that was still no ding.

No. Okay. 1983, April 9th. The Challenger One came back down to earth. I'm not giving that one either. Come on. No. It's something.

No. It came back down to earth. I thought there was... Did it penetrate Through the atmosphere Yep I'll give you that clip Oh That's rude

That's rude That's rude Okay This song was also released It was A Good Day April 9th David Bowie Sexy man Yeah he was a sexy man

This was released April 9th I mean I'm gonna give it to you because it is quite a sexy song. Yes, yes, yes. Okay, okay, okay. This one I didn't know anything. It just was a fun fact. Parks and Recreation debuted.

No. Okay, fine, that's fine. Okay, this one is a real good one. This one actually fits. And I thought it was a really good thing. On April 9th in 2013, the French Senate approved the bill for same-sex marriage. Ding, ding, ding. Ding, ding, ding. Yeah!

That's why we've chosen the perfect date of April 9th. And it's only a week before Rebecca Yarris' birthday and she writes smut. We should have just done it on that day. Had a bigger lead-in. So if you do want to join us, I think people are thinking, oh, it's for those

who need to get the spark back in their relationship and I think it's a really great conversation to have going, hey, everyone's deciding April 9th is the day that we're going

to reconnect again but it's also for people who are already thriving who just want to have another day to continue to thrive if you want to join us for the Big Bang

April 9th. My old man was pretty stoked about it when he found out that mum has it in her diary thank you very much for letting mum know i think every day is a big bang for them yeah well no no no it looks like he's gonna stay abstinent old john clint's dad until yeah if you missed it um yeah we're at like a family dinner it was my brother's um birthday yesterday and um dad was very excited about the big bang. Yeah, I'm cutting down the hours of the day, mate. What is it?

Are you waiting until the 9th of April? Yeah. He's waiting. I'm saving myself. Piss off. What's happening on the 9th? I haven't gone to bed for about three hours, mate. Three hours?

Best time of my life, mate. You couldn't last that long. No, you know. Does it get better with age? Yeah, you have more time on your hands, mate. You won't last that long. I love Christine in the background going, oh, you see, Kev.

And he goes, bloody oath, I can. So, you just wait. I'll tell you. April 9th, join us if you'd like. Cash Strap back at 8 o'clock this morning. We had Will. So Will, who was a dad who took away a couple hundred bucks to buy his daughter her first bike, which will be cool.

So hopefully more cash to be given away at 8 this morning. Bloody oath that we'll quit. Next, what not to do during labour. If you can finish this sentence for us. I was in labour while they were what? We'll go there next. Clint, Meg and Dan. Let's go.

Dan and I thought it would be really nice to put together and compile a coffee book for Meg's husband Guy of all the things to not do whilst your partner is in labour. Even though he's a very smart man and I'm sure he knows a lot of the things not to do. He's incredibly smart. He has grown up a bit in the past three and a half,

nearly four years since I gave birth to my first and did hear him saying to the midwife, oh, my feet hurt. Oh, yeah. Which again, the thing is, his feet would have hurt.

I get it, but it is just one of those things. It's kind of like when somebody says to you, oh, I had a bad sleep. I'm tired. And it's like a 24 somebody says to you, oh, I had a bad sleep, I'm tired, and it's like a 24-year-old, and you've just got a newborn,

and you know what I mean? It's just like, sure, I don't doubt that you are tired, but you're saying it to somebody that's waking up every hour. My advice to anybody that's the partner of someone giving birth is, kind of just shut up and speak when you're spoken to. I think that's kind of the best advice. Give as much support as you can. And never say how tired you are.

No. Even if you've been with them for 24 hours whilst they've been labouring. That's the one day in your life where it's just not about you. Not a single bit about you. A little. You are becoming a father. From personal experiences, I've learnt as well not to eat really strong-smelling food. Obviously, I ate a butter chicken through the birth of our first child,

and that didn't go down well. Especially when I was waiting for ages and ages and ages and ages and ages. And then I was like, I'm starving. I'm going to have something to eat. And literally, I was like, all right, we're on halfway through the butter chicken. Of course, Percy's law. Did you even get the naan? Yeah, you always get it with naan.

My husband, when he got his Big Mac combo, he left the room. That was one good move he made. Okay, well, here's what not to do while your partner is labouring. He was on his phone playing, doing whatever, playing some shit music and then also messaging his girlfriend because he was cheating on me. Oh, that took a turn. Oh, eating butter chicken doesn't seem

so bad now, does it? There's always someone doing it worse. And this is something else maybe we could put in the book of things not to do while your partner's in labour. So when it came time to push out my daughter and my husband catch her and so the doctor told him to put on his gloves. while your partner's in labour? So when it came time to push out my daughter and my husband was a catcher

and so the doctor told him to put on his gloves and the amount of time it took him to put on gloves and they just kept telling me, don't push, hold your contractions, don't push. Because he's got to put gloves on. And I'm sitting there going, put your gloves on, mate. Put your gloves on.

What is he doing? How does he do this? Oh, which hand goes on what shoulder? These are quite tight. Oh, God. What is he doing? How does he do this? Oh, which hand goes on what shoulder? These are quite tight. Oh, God. I would have punched him. What happened? Did he get the gloves on and catch the baby?

Yeah, in the end, yeah, but I had to hold a few contractions. Oh, my God. I don't remember even wearing gloves. I mean, in his defence, those rubber gloves are hard to get on. Also, it may have only been like six seconds. Maybe to her it felt like a long time. We haven't got inside of the story. Yeah, he's not here to defend himself.

No. It feels mean. Do you think that we should do a segment of what did they complain about because you did during labour? Yeah, guys. How are you hard done by in the birthing suite? Yeah. Oh, she told me to piss off.

That was rude. My feet were hurting. Like a support group for men who weren't treated very nicely in the birthing suite for bringing a picnic and a chili bun full of beers. Yeah, okay, if you've got a story, I was in labour while they were what? It never, well, actually.

It does surprise us. It does actually, yeah. It does surprise us what some people are getting up to whilst their partner is pushing out your brand new son or daughter. Every time we do this, it's exciting because there's something new comes through that shocks us. Yeah.

You go, oh, I've got a goodie. If you're like, oh, I've got a goodie, give us a call. I'll wait under the edge or you can fire us a text on 3343. Clint, Meg and Dan. Spooky boots. Well, there's two texts already coming through

saying that their partner was gaming. There's multiple texts coming through, saying that their partner was gaming. Just two. There's multiple texts coming through, but there's already two gaming. Yikes. Okay, well, let's go to phones first and then see what else comes through with the text machine. We know there can be a bit of a delay with rovers sometimes, so they seem to be flooding in now. Carlo, morning. Good morning.

All right. How are we doing? Are you admitting yourself what you were doing during your labour? Well, yeah, mine's a little interesting. I used to be a bartender. Yes. And I used to like to be quite flamboyant in my dress in certain special occasions. Okay.

And there's a day called International Talk Like a Pirate's Day. Yes, we know it. Quite well here in Radio Land. Yeah. Yeah, well, I get a very, very good costume that looks very real to look like Jack Sparrow. Okay, yeah, from Pirates of the Caribbean. Love it.

Hot. Great. Now, that is on the 19th of September, and my partner did send me a text saying, hey, her water's just broken. I'm like, holy cow. Arr, me matey. You go, arr, me matey.

Arr, me matey. Very painful, my love. She's like, yeah, I'm not going to be there. Not for your jokes. So I was still working in full swing in a very busy bar and she goes, oh no,

don't panic, don't panic, it's okay, it could be ages before I go into full labour. I'm like, okay,

but I can come home. She goes, no, no, just finish your job. So here's me, fully dressed like Jack Sparrow, right until 2.30 the next morning

on the 20th. And then she sends me the text saying, we need to go to hospital. It's happening. It's on. So I just went full tilt, jumped into my car, started driving home. And on the way home, realizing, holy cow, I'm still dressed like Jack Sparrow. There's no way my kids should be born to Jack Sparrow. Yeah, they'd be traumatising for your kid.

Did you get changed or have you got a photo? Please let me get a photo of you holding your newborn dressed like Jack Sparrow. I wish I did, but it is really difficult to try and get out of a full costume when you're a bald man and you've got a really massive dread

headed wig. Please tell me you went to the reception at the hospital and went, point me in the direction of the birthing suite, please. Where is the labourer? So go, Tom. Not quite that one. But it was just crazy and, yeah. And how was little Jack?

Was little Jack good? Well, it's a bit not Jack. Missed opportunity there. Thanks, girl. Let's head to Amy. I mean, sorry, Abby. Abby, you were in premature labour. Yeah, I was. Okay, and what was your partner doing?

Okay, so we're cutting them a little bit of slack because they weren't aware that it was going to happen as early as it did. Did we know that it could happen? Was it a big baby? Well, it was twins, so it was always, I guess, a bit of a risk. Yes, okay, yeah, be ready at all times. But we were actually, there was no signs of it whatsoever. We were actually just going to bed.

We had my now husband's grandmother's funeral the next day. And so we were just heading off to bed and my waters broke. Okay. So we ended up getting transferred from Whakatane to Waikato. And we got there about 5 a.m. in the morning. He then just put down a good old jersey on the floor and had a nap. Right, as you do. As you do. And then he got up and decided that his teeth were a bit furry

and needed to walk down to the dairy and get a toothbrush. Yeah. Well, I think you can get them at hospital, by the way. I've been at hospital recently and you go, hey, do you have any toothbrushes? But anyway, yeah, carry on. Is that when the babies came? Oh, God.

What was that? Is that when the babies came? Oh, God. What was that? Is that when the babies came? No, no. They took their time, to be fair. Oh, good. Okay. Thankfully, they were still a good 12 hours later. Oh, 12 hours.

Wow. Jeez, Abby. Wow. He had plenty of time up his sleeve. But he was just doing his errands. At least he had a time for his sleep on his jersey. Yeah. And there's nothing worse than what your wife giving birth

and you've got furry teeth. Someone's going, just as a rule, partners shouldn't eat in front of you while you're going into labour and you should never disappear from the room for any reason. Oh, God, this is so confusing. No, it's just if you can avoid eating butter chickens whilst in the midst of pushing labour,

yes, I would say that's a good idea. But if you have to pop out and everything's looking fine, maybe eat food outside. One last text. While I was in labour, my partner was telling me I was using the gas wrong. Brilliant. Oh, my goodness me.

Some people just need to shut up. Shut up. Hey, that's not actually how you do it. I'll show you. Yeah, when you were in labour, how did it work for you? Let me have a puff and just double check. All right. Clint, Meg and Dan win a share of $50,000.

Cash. With the edge cash-strapped. Strapped. Strapped. All right. The money that Meg offered was the way to go at seven. Will it be this morning? She will offer you a cash amount.

It is yours. You can take it and run or give it back and take the mystery amount that is strapped to Dan. It is up to you. Right, the person playing this morning is Niamh. Hey, Niamh. Morning. Morning, Niamh. Morning, Niamh.

Niamh, I hear you're a nursing student. Yeah, I am. I'm almost finished my first year. Oh, congratulationsiamh. Niamh, I hear you're a nursing student. Yeah, I am. I'm almost finished my first year. Oh, congratulations. Oh, we must be. Rich. Thank you. Any regrets on getting into the job

where you're like, no, this is the one for me? No, I'm actually really enjoying it so far. I'm happy with the study. Good on you. Can you say what's been the most surprising part that you didn't realise you'd like in nursing? Where you're like, oh, I love doing bloods or injections or elderly. I don't know.

You love doing elderly. Sorry, I didn't work that right now. You should have stopped at two examples. Some of the science work is actually really interesting. As hard as it is, you do better than what you expect to do. Yeah. Hey, cool. Okay, well, what do you need the money what you expect to do. Yeah. Hey, cool.

Okay, well, what do you need the money for? Anything, I'm guessing. Well, I live an hour away from uni, so I do use quite a lot of fuel. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Okay. So commuting every day. Okay.

Okay. And maybe some course costs. Oh, and some course costs. Some course-related costs. Okay. While you've got the ear of the Bank of Meg, you just let her know how strapped you are, Niamh. Go for it.

Okay, Niamh, you live away and some course-related costs. Let's do... Yeah. What about $225? Yeah, I can do that. Yeah, $225. That will fill up your tank a bit, maybe not a couple of times depending on what you have.

Fill up your tank and you can use it towards what else? Yeah. You could do that, Niamh, or you could quit nursing forever and retire. Because you won't need any money. Because I'll give it to you, the money that's strapped to me. Now, Dan did have less this morning, Niamh, so it might be good odds.

It's not normally less twice in a row, I must admit. Yeah, it was quite rare that Dan had less money than Meg, and that did happen an hour ago. But they could be changing it up. What would you like to do? I'm going to go with Dan if that's okay. I'm going to risk it. Good on you.

Good on you, Niamh. Okay, $225 given back to you, Meg. It's going to make me very happy to reward a nurse student that I... Oh, this better be good, Webby. This better be good. This better be good. $225 was the offer you turned down. You turned down $225.

And it was a good decision, Niamh. You're going home with $380. Thank you. Yay. Well done. Thank you so much. You're welcome, Niamh. Thank you for what you do, Niamh. You were in the least psychopathic jobs, actually.

I think we did the top ten yesterday. I think nurses came in at number three or number four with the least amount of psychopaths, so enjoy working there. That's good to know, yeah. Clint, Meg and Dan. The big bang going down April 9th. If you're hearing about this for the first time, I guess Meg can give you a little bit of insight as to the why.

Yeah, we think that people are losing that spark of intimacy, more commonly so, and it's not talked about as much. So we want to see if we can get it back. It's in relationships mainly, isn't it? In long-term relationships. We want to hit the reset button. April 9th, we're connecting for one night, and we want to come together with the Big Bang by collectively coming, all of us, everyone.

I mean, I've got to reword that. Yeah. I'm going to reword that one. We talk about it physically, but, I mean, if it just sparks a conversation with you and your partner, maybe things have been a little bit stagnant of late, even if you're just chatting about it, it's a win, right? And yeah, maybe it's not for everyone.

It's kind of like Valentine's Day. You know, some people get really upset that they've been told to schedule a day for romance, but sometimes for others it's a really nice reminder, you know, to do something nice for your partner. So that's what April 9th is. And it means that we need a theme song. Yeah, and there is a tune that naturally lends itself towards being remade. Obviously, we know the TV show.

The Big Bang Theory. So we do it right. We could probably use this and rewrite our own Big Bang to the tune of the Big Bang Theory. And we did something very different this time. We've never done this before. We all got given a certain part of the song. We went away, we wrote it, we recorded it, and it's been put together and we've never heard it.

We didn't talk to each other about what we were writing. We don't know if it's going to make any sense. So Meg had the first lines, right? Yes, the first lines, and then Clint had the middle, and you had the ending, Dan. Okay. Now, I do know me and Dan had to join in on one line for Clint's, which was a little concerning because it was something about orgies.

No, no, it wasn't. No, it wasn't. Wasn't it? Orgasm. Oh, that's right. Sorry. Oh, God, it was worse. Megan.

Sorry. Okay. Yeah, I just needed you guys to do what they call gang vocals, where we all just kind of sing at the same time on this line. So I had to let you have a little sneak peek as to one of my lyrics. Oh my gosh, I'm really excited here. Are we ready? For the very first time that we're hearing it the same time as you, text

through 3343. Does it go in the bin? Did it work? It's a Frankenstein parody song. Here it is. If you don't like it, text bin. Here we go. For the first time. Our great relationship was in a dead fish place. Life was busy, sex had vanished.

Was it actually over? Wait. The age began to scheme. The studio began to steam. We make a dance at Haven. Why not six for all? It's epinogism. You, me, and your mom, and the guy that lives next door to me.

We're all gonna have a big bang. I need to go over the lyrics. I kind of missed some of it. I feel like the production guy maybe drowned us out with the backing track a little. Rightfully so. Sorry, Grant, but I do feel like you did drown us out a little. One more time, one more time.

Okay, okay. Here we go. A great relationship was in a dead fish place. Life was busy, sex had vanished. Was it actually over? Wait. The edge began to scheme, the studio began to steam. Could make a dance and hey, then why not sex for all? It's adrenochism. You, me and your mum and the guy that lives next door to me.

We're all gonna have a big bang. Are we having sex with our mums? Yeah, I can see why now it makes it sound like we're having sex with our mums. I didn't mean that. Or the guy next down the road from me. What was your line? You, me, your mum and the guy that lives down the road from me. We're all gonna have a big bang. And it sounds like we're

doing that together. But I meant on a global scale. You mean everyone is going to be joining the movement? Yes, not coming to my house. Okay. You might want to redo your line. Yeah. Us work together, Clint, to my house. Okay. You might want to redo your lines. Ours worked together, Clint, I must say. Stacey said catchier than the original.

Tasha said music's too loud. Can't hear the lyrics. Brittany said that's great. So the real mixed bag. Meg, do you have your lyrics? Yeah, I can read my lyrics. Okay. What were your lyrics?

Our great relationship was in a dead... Wait, what are you doing there? Why is he doing that? I thought you were just going to speak it. Speak it, yeah. Oh, sorry. You can sing it if you want. Should I just...

Okay, let me speak. I'll speak it. A great relationship was in a dead fish place. Life was busy. Sex had vanished. Was it actually over? Wait. That's pretty good.

I had the edge began to scheme. The studio began to steam. Clint, Meg and Dan said, hey, why not six for all? Let's have it. I love it. And then Dan. And then I said, you, me and your mum. The guy lives down the road from me.

Let's all have a big bang. It's funny because you were the one that came and you said, do you know, behind the scenes, Dan goes Right. Give me the ending. I've already nailed it. I've already got an idea for the end. So I'll have that. And so me and Clint got the leftovers.

Yeah, so next time I say that, we know to just go, no. No. What we've learned here is Dan can't be left to his own devices. Oh, I love it. Okay, March 9. Chuck it in the diaries if you want to join the rest of the country. And, yeah, get that. Get that spark back.

Get back on the horse. It's the edge. Clint, Meg and Dan. It's Clint, Meg and Dan's. I saw a little bit of skills within your job, so is there anything else you could have put there? What are your options? Employee of the week. You're fired.

Get out of here. Go. Okay, we don't decide who deserves it. We throw shade at one another as we look back at some of the mistakes this week and realize who doesn't get it. And the people that made the least mistakes generally win by default. Yeah, Dan was reading out a story. By the way, throwing you under the bus here, Dan. Brilliant. Dan was reading out a story from

Owen R Only Fans podcast when he didn't pre-read and realised he didn't know how to pronounce a certain word. End of last year, my brother came over from Seattle and while here he attended my daughter's rectical. Recital.

I was like, holy shit, man. I've got a close family, but none of my families are doing that. I thought Clint was going to internally combust with laughter when he did that. It was just like, you can't... No one wants to attend their daughter's rectical. It was just, oh you can't. No one wants to attend their daughter's rectical. No.

It was just, oh my gosh. Okay. What am I going to go with? I mean, there was the time of the day. Dying to hear it

because we genuinely don't know what this compliment is and I've been trying to, oh, I'm sorry, I just choked on my own spit there.

No, sorry. Something to be, hold on, we talk a lot on the radio, sometimes things happen to your voice And you can't avoid it I've decided I'm not going to go with that

I'm going to go with something else that you said on the show Where I was like, ooh, jeez, that was bad Up! Come on, Dan! Get into us! Up the whites! Oh, I don't think that's a thing That's not their thing, I don't think that's right thing. That's not their thing either. Oh, right.

There we go. Don't make that a video. That needs context. We're talking about the all whites. And I forgot to say the all bit. Why were you wearing all white that day? Because I like white. I mean, up the whas.

As a colour on me, I mean. Up the whas works for the Warriors, but when the all whites made it through to the FIFA World Cup next year for only the third time in the history, I don't think we're going to be using Up the Wires. No, and I suggest never use that again. No, no, no. And I think Meg, you're going to be safe this week. Shut up. Shut up.

I think it's one of her first ever wins because, Clint, I'm throwing you under the bus, my friend. Oh, no. What did I do? Because you were talking, you were talking, actually, about the world's greatest compliment anybody could ever receive. And this conversation ensued. Okay, what is the greatest compliment that you could ever receive or give somebody? I will give you the answer next. Would you give it to either Meg or I? Like, genuinely.

Would I give it to you? Damn it, why did I play this song? Let me think on it during Alex Warren. What is it? Oh, God. See, I got taken. You know what? I've won, but I haven't really,

because I also was taken down in that. Yes. Yes, you were, Meg, actually. What was the compliment again that you would never give Meg a ride? Yeah, go on. No, the greatest compliment is, I think, when somebody who's going through IVF and they ask if you will be an egg or a sperm donor

because they want to make a child that is going to resemble and be similar to who you are as a person. But not either Megarai. Yeah, you wouldn't ask us. Wow. Guys, there's so many things. I mean, I've already got two kids

and I see you every day, so it could be awkward when I bring my kid to work, and you go, well, that's my kid, and I go, no, it's my kid. Well, that's why you're not employed the week. So, Meg, you've won by default. Yay! There you go. Well done.

Deserved. Well deserved. And just one ugly joke made about me this week, boys. Thank you for that. No, I think there was more probably, but they just weren't included maybe. Oh, right. That's right. You did say you were going to compliment me on my body. Asked me to stand up. I did, and you said, I like your personality. Oh, right. That's right. You did say you were going to compliment me on my body.

Asked me to stand up. I did and you said, I like your personality. Oh, yeah. Let's not repeat that one. That was a good one. Miss a little, miss a lot, I guess. Clint, Meg and Dan. Scandal with Meg.

Nominate someone to get a wonderful Wednesday morning text wonderful to 3343 to enter. Chapel Roan has done her Call Her Daddy podcast and it's great. I mean, some people hate Chapel.an has done her Call Her Daddy podcast and it's great. I mean, some people hate Chapel, some people love her. I think I like how

refreshingly honest she is and how unmedia trained she seems to me. She told a story, she is gay. She used to date men and she told a story about one of her

ex-boyfriends who wasn't very nice to her with the breakup and she saw him at a club. Ex-boyfriend's at the club. I'm at the club.

I see him hitting on this girl. And I'm like, why the f*** is he doing this in front of me? This is evil. Like, we're both single at this point. So whatever. He goes to the bathroom. I go up to this girl. I'm like, I think you're so pretty.

And then I steal her. And then at the end of the night, we were just making out. And he's just standing there. That's weaponizing gay. No. Actually. Triple. That is.

That's called being evil. And it's like, I was so fucked up. I was on multiple drones. Sorry about that. Sorry about that. That's right on 837. I mean, smoke screening that completely. What a boss move.

What's your email? Carl Thompson at MediaWorks.co. I'll take the hate. Sorry, guys, I forgot to beat that F word there. And the good thing is as well, the big boss is sitting right outside and would have heard all of that. Not good, eh? Not happy.

He's shaking his head. Not happy. He's doing the cross, like the no deal sign. He's done. Not sure what that means. Carl's fine. I thought it was a really interesting way, and it is like a fun thing you can do if you are bisexual or gay,

that you can kind of like switch it around and that. But I totally get what she means by the feeling of seeing an ex and they know you're around, and then they're hitting on somebody else in front of you. He would have been doing that just to piss her off. I don't doubt it. It sounded like it was a messy breakup, and even her saying, like, why are you doing this in front of me,

you know that's horrible when he broke up with her. So she just got a bit of revenge. I thought it would be a really great excuse to do what made the breakup even worse. Because breakups are hard, but sometimes they can be made worse through other circumstances. Like maybe the breakup was made worse by the fact that then your brother started

dating her. And you're like, cool. So now you're dating her and I'm going to have to see her at all the family events. Yeah. I mean, I know of a breakup as well that they had already prepaid for a trip overseas and so they both went on it but then one of them ended

up hooking up with somebody lost on the trip. What if you take the loss and just go, look, I can't go on that trip now, you know? Oh, I couldn't put myself through that. Yeah. Yeah, you're like, surely you buy me out of the trip to Fiji but if they're like, well, no, I'm not. I'm gonna go. I guess you both call each other's bluff going, well, I'm going.

And they're like, well, I'm going. And you think one's going to bail and then they don't. And then you send the other ones, they're both going to be respectful of the fact that you're just fresh exes, but nope.

Yeah. I only have one ex and I've got a quick story. I, when we broke up, I had her credit card attached to my Uber account for a year after we broke up. She ended up texting me

like a year later being like, can you take my credit card off your Uber account? I racked up hundreds of dollars in Uber fees. And you didn't know or you did know?

Didn't know until she texted me. But I did keep it on for another couple of months after that. Over a year, it's hundreds of dollars for Dan going out

and going partying. Yeah, it was about $110. Dan made four trips into town. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Four trips, but two. But there and back. Yeah, yeah. Four trips, Clint. Two. But there and back. There and back. All right, what made the breakup even worse? Have you got a story? It's been $100. Hundreds.

$100. $110. Oh, $800. The Edge. Clint, Meg and Dan. Next guy, Jasmine Johnson. It's The Edge. 18 to 9.

We want to know, what made the breakup worse? We're just talking about how Chapel Rowan and her partner ended up breaking up, and then he was trying to hook up with somebody else, and she took her home instead. Yep. Good on her. Good on her. So that would have been a worse breakup for him.

You know, she wanted that aspect. Yeah. We were talking about maybe you had to travel with your partner. Maybe the breakup was worse because they ended up being your new boss. Imagine that. Like you ended up like they get a job with a couple of months down the track and they're your new boss. Can I just say if I was the guy in the Chapel Rowan situation,

I'd kind of be like, I'm impressed by that. I don't even know if I'd be angry because it's not like you would have had any feelings for that girl that you were hooking up with before you went to the bathroom and then you come back and your ex is hooking up with her. I would have been like, good play. Chapel.

Well done. Classic chapel. You know what? I can't even be angry at that. She's nailed that. Dan would be angry at this. What made the breakup worse? We were together four years.

We broke up three months after the breakup. He got an inheritance from his grandmother of $400,000. Oh. So if you're still together, I imagine you plan how you're going to spend that. If you're together four years, it kind of feels like your money, their money. But that's still her money. Really. Like, even if you're in a relationship.

Like, if my wife Hannah got an inheritance from a family member of hers, I'm not telling her how to spend that. Agreed. Oh, no, no. My money is my wife's money, and from a family member of hers, I'm not telling her how to spend that. Agreed. Oh, no, no. My money is my wife's money and her money is my money. So whatever we make is collectively ours. To a certain degree. Regardless of whether she makes it or I make it, it's ours.

To a certain degree. Even inheritance. Yeah, I think inheritance, like if it's from a parent. It's so crazy. If you have joint bank accounts and everything you share. We do. And then all of a sudden one one of you got an inheritance, and that's just theirs.

No, it'd be both of your money. You're sharing it. I know that. But I think that you're also, I can't tell her how to spend it. I can't go, we're spending that on another house. Well, you can't tell your wife how to spend any of your money. Maybe that's the issue. Maybe that is the issue.

But I'll let her do that. She doesn't know. You forget it, Daniel. Of course I do, mate. Don't tell her you're letting her. Hi, Hope. Hi. Hi, Hope. What made the breakup worse? I'm

best friends with all my brother's exes. Oh. Oh, he should stop dating your friends. Or does it happen the other way around where he gets a girlfriend or a partner and then you become best friends with them? Yeah. Oh, you're a bad sister.

Yeah. Just because he's broken up with them, you're like, well, I don't have to. I like them. I still like them. We need to do another phone of bad sisters. Oh, my gosh. I mean, it's a classic sister move to just sit there and be like, hey, so so-and-so's coming around for Christmas because I get an invite.

And he's like, oh. Yeah, he's got his ex-girlfriend sitting around the dinner table. Well, at least he picks good ones, it seems. Maybe he's the issue. Yeah, true. True. Thanks, Hope. Let's go to Kelsey.

I think it's a fake name. Hey, Kelsey. Hi. Hi. What made the breakup worse? Drew, thanks Hope Let's go to Kelsey I think it's a fake name, hey Kelsey Hey Hi, what made the breakup worse? We broke up and then two weeks later I found that I was pregnant Oh yeah, that'll happen That makes the breakup worse Has he at least still been a cool dad

and still being present? Up until she was six months old and then disappeared and then two years ago he came back into her life and now he's gone over to Australia. Yeah, there's never a happy ending

to that kind of thing. You can cut people slack for being a bad partner. Maybe sometimes they're just, you know, it's not the right time, it's not the right person, but there's no excuse for being a crap dad. You've got a responsibility now

the only like silver lining out of all this is that you've gotten your beautiful daughter out of it you know even though you know bad relationship obviously ended up bad

but she wouldn't exist if that didn't happen yeah my mum always used to say that like my dad and her didn't work out but she always said I wouldn't change it for the world because I got you two boys

yeah yeah jackpot I was just thinking of another one I don't know if people have forgotten about this, but I'm sure just nearly five years ago, whilst we're in the middle of a lockdown right now,

somebody would have broken up, or recently broken up, but they had nowhere to go but to lockdown for six weeks. Oh yeah, imagine that. Five years ago, somebody must have been in that situation. You had to lockdown with an ex. I would have broken curfew. No, you wouldn't have, you naughty boy. There's no way.

I would have put a mask on and crawled. Where? Where are you going crawling? I don't know why I'm crawling, actually. That's quite a slow mode of transport. Yeah, you've got more chance of catching the virus, I imagine. Especially on the ground. It's very dirty.

What a silly thing to say. Very dirty. We've got new music Friday, and it's a fun one. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Breaking news that Dan's going to bring to us. Yeah, Liam Lawson, if you've been following along, there's been speculation he's been moved from the Red Bull team that he was famously put in this year and back to the Racing Bulls team.

After two races. After two races. After two races. Formula One driver, if you haven't been keeping up. Yeah, it has been confirmed this morning that he is moving back, which I think is an excellent move. I think it's going to be great for him. He's just posted this morning. I've got all Terry reading it.

Oh, God. I'm so invested in this, by the way. I love Liam Lawson. I just love Formula One. I've followed it my whole life. And it's, yeah. Sorry, I might have done you dirty with the song because I knew you were emotional reading it.

Why? I'm sorry. I don't know why I'm doing this. He's just said, being a Red Bull racing driver has been a dream since I was a kid. It's what I've worked towards my whole life. It's tough, but I'm grateful for everything that it's brought to me at this point.

To everyone who has stood by me, thank you so much for the support. It means the world to me. And I'm just so, I'm so with him. I love Formula One so much, and it's just so good to have a New Zealand Formula One driver in there, and I just hate that he's been given all this hate. And, oh God, I don't know why I'm getting choked up. I've literally never seen Dan cry over anything.

I know. We've even done baby announcements. We've done. In fact, he's been so upset this week that dear Clint bought him a little Red Bull racing car. And I think that's what made me cry as well. Isn't that so? Clint, what an amazing friend you are. He brought me in a Formula One car, the remote control car.

Oh, my God. Stop crying, Dan. Come on. I'll go get you a Red Bull because then I can get in on my god. Stop crying, Dan. Come on. I'll go get you a Red Bull because then I can get in on the friendship. No, I do not want a Red Bull. They can piss off. I'm never drinking a Red Bull again. Wow. My god. I need to pull myself together. Liam, New Zealand is behind

you. Stuff the haters. You're going to show them what you've got this year. I just think it's really cool that you're championing someone who's been copping a lot of heat this year. I just think it's really cool you're like championing like someone who's been copping a lot of heat this week and I thought it was cool that you went against the grain because everyone else

has just been hating on him. It's been easy to join the club. I've never cried on air until now. Once before maybe. Goodness me. Anyway, sorry about that. Hey, you can get me a Le Creuset pot

for sticking up for Meghan Markle when she was getting the hate client. No problems. What is a Le Creuset pot? Oh, you didn't tear up for that, Mansell. No. Give us the tears and we'll get you a pot.

Back to normal again. Holy shit, you made it the whole way through. If you want more, find them on Instagram at Edge Breakfast. See you tomorrow. And then if that's not enough, check out our OnlyFans podcast, that is.
