Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a podcast from Rover. If you're easily offended, keep listening. We love a challenge. This is the Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Good morning, everyone. Christchurch. New Plymouth. Hamilton.

Starting point is 00:00:20 Wellington. Connors. Gizzy. Didn't know you existed out of summer. Yeah, guys. Yeah, we're shredding for R&V. Doubt I'd see you on the hill. Yeah, whatever, mate. We'llors. Gizzy. Didn't know you existed out of summer. Oh, yeah, guys. Yeah, we're shredding for R&V. Doubt I'd see you on the hill. Yeah, whatever, mate.
Starting point is 00:00:27 We'll see you in December. But for now, we've got the Vs. Wait, is he talking about us? Oh, come on. That can't be us, surely. Okay, one more try. Come on. It's Clint Magentad.
Starting point is 00:00:39 Kia ora, good morning. It is one to six on your Wednesday. The Big Bang today. It is. Has anyone already done it? Looking around the room. I want to speak to someone that has, that's done it. They could have done it any time from midnight last night to now.
Starting point is 00:00:51 Yeah, and to midnight tonight, right? Yeah. Well, so between midnight and almost 6am. Anybody that's done it in this room, say aye. Bugger. How naggy would I have to be? Babe, today's actually the day, so yeah, I need my
Starting point is 00:01:11 honestly, it's still early, it's 4am. Yeah, he's a company man, Clint, if he'd done that. Yeah. Don't let the team down, babe. No, I don't even think I've actually properly run it by my wife yet about today, so maybe we'll need to do that. Oh, you missed this yesterday, actually, baby. No, I don't even think I've actually properly run it by my wife yet about today, so maybe we'll need to do that.
Starting point is 00:01:28 Oh, you missed this yesterday, actually, Clint. It's nice to have you back, but yesterday, you know Dan was going on about how he also hadn't told his wife. Turns out she said he'd been bringing it up every day for the past three or four weeks. She lies. She has heard plenty about it, Clint, and it's
Starting point is 00:01:43 a once-a-day topic. When he was acting like she had never known about it. Jeff. Oh, no, Jeff is not. You don't go to Jeff to try and get away from your story. Jeff, have you taken part in the Big Bang? Yes. Hey, already?
Starting point is 00:02:00 That was a guilty yes. Already? Jeff, I doesn't. With someone? What, like a guilty yes. Already? Jeff, I doesn't... Yes. With someone? What, like a two-player game? Ah, yep. I don't know if he has.
Starting point is 00:02:13 I don't know if he... I don't know if he finished. He doesn't sound very happy. I don't know if he knows you called the edge just then. He's like, uh, yep. Is this how I get cash? Now, Clint, apparently there's some audio that you need to play. I don't know anything about this, Meg. It sounds like you know a lot about it, Daniel.
Starting point is 00:02:30 You just brought it up. Well, the producers have said. Okay. They whisper in your ear. I know. Sometimes there's voices in my ear. Sometimes it's producers. Sometimes it's not.
Starting point is 00:02:38 Sometimes we just guess. And Clint Randall, our dear friend, who's not here today, has been C&B'd. Oh, God, go to town. No, no, don't. Don't do that. C&B. Don't graffiti anything.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Scratch eyes out. Yeah, do a couple of teeth in. Yeah, so over the weekend. So you just brought that up. You're the one that brought that to air. I should not. No, Clint, to be fair, over the weekend, my wife, Hannah, saw a poster, over the weekend, my wife, Hannah,
Starting point is 00:03:05 saw a poster, one of the street posters that's advertising our show, and you've been done with a C&B. Yeah, but he's encouraged everyone to do it more. He said the more the merrier on Clint. And you know why? He's projecting because he's the only one with his mouth wide open. Oh, no, you should have heard the whole break. Should have heard exactly what I was saying.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Yeah, Dan, if you watch, there's like a, you might even see it on social, almost like a, I guess they've put together like a movie or like a reel based on a whole bunch of pictures all cut together. In every photo, Dan's got his mouth wide open, gagging for a CMB, and now he's projecting that onto me. Yeah, well, I've got to because I do look like one of those clowns you see at the circus.
Starting point is 00:03:44 You know, where you put the balls in their mouth. I'm like that. Constantly in the photo shoot. And so I need to deflect onto Clint. And luckily, I didn't even need to do that
Starting point is 00:03:52 because someone's done it themselves. I'm going to try and go to the place today and get a photo of it. How'd they even see and be me? My mouth's closed. Yeah, but they're like sort of just rubbing it
Starting point is 00:04:00 over your lips. He hasn't even seen it and he's excited about it. Don't even listen to him. He hasn't even seen it and he's excited about it. Don't even listen to him. He doesn't even know. I still think Hannah got confused and saw her husband get sent in. And I'm hoping he turns up, takes a photo of it, and it's him. Someone's got me and Dan confused.
Starting point is 00:04:18 And then he's like, damn it. Oh, bugger, I aimed it the wrong way. So anyway, I will hammer this home. If you see one of these posters, deface the crap out of it. Do something to Meg's face. Rub off her nose or something. Please don't. What about you?
Starting point is 00:04:33 Oh, I'm already stuffed. Thicken up Dan's top of lip or whatever. Oh, that'd be nice actually. Help a brother out. Help a brother out. Fill it out a little bit, would you? Yeah. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:04:42 We're getting into our 6am throwback with the big bang going on today. It feels like it'll be hard to go past GCJ and Ariana Grande. Unless we did Skrillex's Bangarang. Bangarang. Man, I used to play that and think I was such a cool girl. I'd play it loud if I saw a hot guy with my window down because I thought they must think that I'm hot if I listen to Skrillex. Yeah, and it's a filthy, filthy, filthy beat, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:05:08 It's dutty. Isn't that thing just like one of the most filthy? Daniel, you have never, ever described songs as filthy and dutty. Oh, I have. Do we even have it in the system? That's the question. We do, but it won't play. Oh, bugger.
Starting point is 00:05:23 I would almost have it like ready to play if I saw a hot guy and I'd just start like playing it. How would you dance if you... Well, I wouldn't dance. I'd be driving.
Starting point is 00:05:31 I'd be like this. And then can you play it? It won't play. It's got like an X on it. Can you sing it or something? Bang-a-rang. Oh, guys, you guys have given me the X.
Starting point is 00:05:43 What the hell happened while I was gone? Imagine if it's you and I in a car and I'm like, there's a hot guy in here. There's a hot guy going. Oh, she leaves it now. Clint says. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I was away yesterday because my beautiful and very lively auntie passed away after losing her fight with cancer. And even though you know it's coming, when it actually does and the reality hits that that's it, death is just so final, it was really heartbreaking to hang out with my papa, who no one should have to bury their youngest child. That's your worst nightmare, eh? Yeah, and then her boys, my cousins, are like 29 and 30, and one of them's just had a baby. And so I guess you start thinking about, you know,
Starting point is 00:06:32 raising a child that's not going to get to know grandma. It's just heartbreaking. That's so horrible, Clint. So sorry to hear that, Clint. Yeah, thanks, guys. I appreciate holding down the fort yesterday. And whether you believe in divine intervention or not, I thought this was really quite strange yesterday,
Starting point is 00:06:51 that my auntie's been fighting this battle with cancer for a long time, and her son had a fantail fly into the house that morning. I love fantails. That his mum had passed. And supposedly in Maori culture, fantail is a sign of spirits and passing. And so he was just saying in the hospital that that had passed. And supposedly in Maori culture, fantail is a sign of spirits and passing. And so he was just saying in the hospital that that had happened. And then later on that Monday afternoon and evening,
Starting point is 00:07:12 we're all hanging out from, say, five o'clock, having a couple of beers and some pizza. And music was just playing just randomly from five o'clock in the evening through to maybe nine. So four hours of just tunes playing. And as we're all like, okay, it's probably time to call it. And we'll see you for the funeral on the weekend.
Starting point is 00:07:30 We're all getting going. We're all saying our goodbyes. We're all hugging. And we're all leaving. And we say to mum and, my mum and Aunty Brenda, which are the two sisters of Aunty Don who's passed,
Starting point is 00:07:41 they're still kind of just swaying and holding each other and just, I guess dancing, like, you know, to the music. And it was like mum and dad, oh, sorry, mum and Aunty Brenda, it's time to go, this song comes on. We are family. I've got all my sisters with me. Is this one for the taste?
Starting point is 00:08:00 Yeah. I just thought, and I said to mum, I said, I don't know, because mum's not a real lyric person, she's not great at lyrics. I said, I don't know if this is lost on you, but I said, listen to the song right now. Like, we are family, I've got all my sisters with me, and Aunty Donna had passed, both her sisters, the last two swaying and dancing as the rest of us
Starting point is 00:08:19 are trying to get them to leave the house. And you can sit there and go, coincidence, fantail season, coincidence, it's just music. Or you can choose to believe it's more. What is it? You know what I mean? I always choose to believe it's more. I always choose to believe.
Starting point is 00:08:32 And why wouldn't you for that situation? Exactly. Any of those situations. So yeah, I think it absolutely was. We've had John Edwards psychic medium on before and we've asked him like, are there signs that people are still with?
Starting point is 00:08:43 And he goes, there are signs everywhere. But some of us just choose and he goes there are signs everywhere but some of us just choose to ignore them and he said some of us don't and yeah I know people are like oh it's coincidence, coincidence but I guess if you keep fobbing everything off as coincidence then maybe those who have passed stop trying to show up in your life and remind you that they're still watching over you
Starting point is 00:08:57 Isn't that amazing? I'm still not as bad a day Clint as the person that's saying hey is it okay to be locked out of your house by your partner? Please ask your listeners this morning,
Starting point is 00:09:08 good morning. So that's somebody who's been locked out of home at the moment. At this time in the morning? God, what happened to that?
Starting point is 00:09:15 I would say there's probably a reason. If you're literally getting home from last night, then yeah, that might be why. You want to re-evaluate
Starting point is 00:09:24 your partying habits. Don't find the spare key. Usually it's hidden under a like plant or why. On a Tuesday. Yeah. You want to re-evaluate your partying habits. Don't find the spare key. Usually it's hidden under a like pot plant or something. Yeah, yeah. That's where I put mine. Oh, mix.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Just the second to the left if you want to rob it. The Clint, Meg and Dan Podcast. Scandal with Meg. So Brittany Carpenter has successfully become a movie star. She's starred in movies
Starting point is 00:09:44 in the past. Tall Girl on star. She's starred in movies in the past. Tall Girl on Netflix. She is also a fantastic singer. She has created awesome swimsuits that I wouldn't get my hands on, but you know, also Is it her own brand? Nah, she's collabed, but she's designed them. They seem very Sabrina Carpenter
Starting point is 00:09:59 so you feel like she actually had her hand in it. She's done two perfumes. She's done a lot, hasn't she? She has. She's a busy girl. Busy woman. That would have been a good time to play the song. Damn it. What, Busy Woman? Yeah, she has a song called Busy Woman.
Starting point is 00:10:11 Oh, does she? Yeah. Let me see if we've got it. Come on. Okay, let me make the gag again. Okay. Well, come on. Okay, we got it?
Starting point is 00:10:18 You know what she is? I mean, wait. Stuffed it up. Dan, you know what she is? What? Oh, it doesn't work. Yes, it doesn. Dan, you know what she is. What? I don't know how anybody could have stuffed that up more. I know she went straight into Busy Woman. This is what I like about our show.
Starting point is 00:10:36 It's not as polished as the others. Sabrina Kambana is now in Fortnite. What? Busy Woman. Yeah, she's in Fortnite. What? Busy woman. Yeah, she's in Fortnite. So I'll show you, you can get an avatar of her. So you'll know in other people and characters have been avatars in the past.
Starting point is 00:10:54 You can be Sabrina Cabana now. It's very lifelike too. Isn't it cool? If you want to see, you can text Sabrina to 3343. I'll send you the trailer. And I'll show you guys the trailer as well. You can see in the background so you can describe what's happening. Look at this. Do I have to pay for a Sabrina Cup, the skin or whatever?
Starting point is 00:11:08 I think you probably will. Hey, look at that. Neeps would know. Producer Neeps. Neeps, are you paying for your skin? Yeah, I've already bought it. Yeah, there it is. So it'll be roughly, I'd say, $1,800 V-Bucks, which is the in-game currency,
Starting point is 00:11:22 and that's maybe $12 New Zealand dollars or something like that. You can have a bargain against the breeder. I'll pay any money for that. Of course not. I just think it's cool. So Clarissa's put a thing, anybody will get to playing with her. Alright, good job. I've got a new world wonderful Wednesdays.
Starting point is 00:11:45 She's a busy woman. No, it doesn't fit, remember? It doesn't fit. It's the end. It was delayed, Dan. Have you got to do the gag? Hit the song off quicker. Don't get mad at me for ruining the gag.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Yeah, mate, leave the songs to me from now on, thank you. I hope you don't. Clint, Megan, Dan, stinky boo. All right, what is going on? What have you guys been cooking up? All right, so to catch you up, one of New Zealand's restaurants has been named Best in the World.
Starting point is 00:12:12 In the World, top three. Best in the World. Amersfield. Amersfield down in Queenstown. Yeah, top three. So the third, and think of that, like all of the restaurants in Italy, New York.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Better than them. Dan doesn't know any other places. His geography is very limitless. Paris could have done pity. Japan as well. Like some of the most incredible Japanese restaurants. Amazing, amazing. And so we were saying that, wow, incredible.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Let's see if we could go. And we're doing this off air because we're like, that sounds fancy. That sounds lovely. But then we had a look at the prices, and it ended up being about $700, $695 for the best meal that you could get, which was like the chef's meal, and then $600 for the wine tasting. For lunch, it's $240 without alcohol. It's like a degustation, where they have 11 tiny little courses.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Yeah, and I went down them, and I was looking through them, and there's things, one's called the whole beast. I don't know what they mean. A goat's tail, green bone. They don't sound appetisers. Bluff oyster. Yeah, lovely. Power. That's another one.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Crab. I guess, I'm guessing these are all pretty self-explanatory, as is also eel on vogels. Obviously, when it comes out, you know, they have like dry, like, steaming off the top of it and all this stuff, and it's all very fancy. But I guess they can't have all that written down, so they just have duck. But eel on Vogel's feels pretty... To us, it does.
Starting point is 00:13:34 To New Zealanders. But I'd argue, if you've come from another country, you've come from China, and you see eel on Vogel's... You go, excuse me, what's Vogel's? What's Vogel's? Is that a special herb? Well, in comes the eel on Vogels from our producer, Carl. Is it cooked eel?
Starting point is 00:13:49 It looks boiled. It's cooked, yeah. I think on the menu, like, the Michelin star restaurant did, like, they smoked it and stuff. I didn't have a smoke, so I just nuked it. To be fair, Carl, it doesn't say smoked. It doesn't have a smoke so I just nuked it. To be fair, Carl, it doesn't say smoked. It doesn't say microwaved either.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Well, I could have nailed it. They might have nuked it too. So we've got a wheel in the studio. Is there apple on the bread too? It said fragrant apple on the menu item as well. So you've got a slice of apple, you've got microwaved eel, and then you've got your Vogel's toast. I think that's a face. Is that an eel face? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:25 When you add face to any type of meat, it doesn't sound microwave eel, and then you've got your Vogel's toast. I think that's a face. Is that an eel face? Yeah, okay. When you add face to any type of meat, you don't really, it doesn't sound appetising, does it? Most, most, most, most meat has face. So let's spin the wheel. Each of our names are on it. I don't know why it would be on me, because I literally can't even eat sushi,
Starting point is 00:14:44 so I'm not eating microwave eel. If it lands on your face, Meg, you get to choose whether Clint or I do it. Okay? Okay. Here we go. Spin the wheel. Someone is going to be trying the ill face on Vogel's with a bit of apple.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Even the apple doesn't look appetising. Come on, Dan. It's landing on me. Which is, we knew it was going to happen. The winning wheel hates me. It does, doesn't it? Yeah, yeah. I didn't realise, though, that it was giving Meg the going to happen the winning wheel hates me it does doesn't it yeah yeah I didn't realise though that it was giving Meg the choice shame winning wheel
Starting point is 00:15:09 I get to choose the person okay now this is hard on me people listening because the whole plan was to make Clint eat this
Starting point is 00:15:19 this is what me and Dan have discussed together we were like wouldn't it be great if Clint had to do it but Clint had a like really bad day yesterday Dan didn't he but he's back. It was a bad day.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Yeah, I'm hanging in there for the team. And then this morning he talked about it was really sad but that's in my head now and then you said you haven't eaten yet.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Yeah, but I always do it so why don't we get Clint to do it? I know, I know. That was the whole thing. But isn't that also funny that you think, alright, well we're going to do turns on the show
Starting point is 00:15:42 and then Meg doesn't. She just like kicks you while you're down. If you want to choose me choose me but just do it quickly
Starting point is 00:15:47 oh he's rushing you Meg oh I didn't like that or you choose Clint up to you no
Starting point is 00:15:53 well I haven't chosen Clint you bitch you bitch I'll serve it up for you get that face on there
Starting point is 00:16:02 I'll get the bit of face I'm not going to give him too much because you know look at him look at him he's cheered up look'll get the bit of face. I'm not going to give him too much because, you know. Look at him. Look at how much he's cheered up.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Look at how much he's cheered up. No, he's not going to have to have the whole thing, but he's going to have to have a substantial bite. Have a fragrant apple. Can you have that? There you go. The apple is not on it, by the way, Clint, but you can have it if you want.
Starting point is 00:16:17 On the menu, it doesn't say with apple. Oh, God, it's fallen onto the desk. Dan! There's eel in the desk. Give me the plate so it doesn't go all over the desk, maybe. Sorry, Casey, there's a bit of fish in your fader. There you go.! There's eel in the desk. Give me a place that doesn't go all over the desk, maybe. Sorry, Casey, there's a bit of fish in your fader. There you go.
Starting point is 00:16:27 A bit of eel there. Okay. Okay, here he goes. Okay. Come on, Clint. Well, sorry, I'm trying to run the desk as well, Dan. It'll be easy for you
Starting point is 00:16:34 because you don't do anything with your hands. Don't worry. Sit them on the desk. Here he goes. A bit more fish, please. Hmm? So this is what you could get
Starting point is 00:16:43 at Amersfield. What do you think? What are the notes? Yummy? Mm-hmm. Yum. Oh, not yummy. That was all right for a second.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Oh, no. I think when it hits the back of your throat. Ah. Maybe it was there. That's a gag reflex. It's not nice when it hits the back of your throat. And when you breathe out through your nose, the flavours, the aromas really take over your palate.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Are you getting that like West Auckland stormwater pond kind of aftertaste? Yeah, I just caught this. No, you didn't mention it. Down the back of it.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Massey. Not only is it an eel, but it's had a pretty much a surefire diet of faeces its whole life. I would like the apple to wash it down actually.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Microwave to perfection Microwaved eel Why is it all over my phone? Apple and toast Oh there we go Out of ten how would you score it? Two What a shame
Starting point is 00:17:37 I like vocals I think you just need to work on your presentation Carl really I think that's the main thing I'll stick to producing Thanks for that Men writing erotic fiction for women You just need to work on your presentation, Carl, really. I think that's the main thing. I'll stick to producing. Yes. Thanks for that. Men writing erotic fiction for women. Oh, it's been a while.
Starting point is 00:17:50 It's not going to get much better than what we just listened to now. Fish on toast, basically. Dead fish on toast is how I'd describe both of your stories. All right. Clint, Meg and Dan. We have a prize pack to give away. Thanks to Naughty.NZ. If you like your adult toys,
Starting point is 00:18:06 there are about seven or 8 different products and valuing almost 800 bucks up for grabs before 7 o'clock you just have to let us know who you think wrote a sexier, short erotic story. Yeah, it's going to be a tough call this morning boys. Oh, I don't know. I think Clint, if
Starting point is 00:18:22 you lose this, there's something wrong my friend. Okay, because you aren't, there's something wrong, my friend. Okay, because you aren't backing your own story. Oh, my goodness me. I couldn't have been in a less sexy mood last night writing this. Okay. Well, I think Clint's the same because obviously it's just been depressing. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:18:37 We're going to get into it. When you hear the ding, I have finished writing. The boys have started writing. We're starting off with Dan's first. This is sexy, erotic fiction for women, written by Dan Webber. Okay, well, I'm going to stop you before you start, Meg. Have a little bit of grandiose in your voice. Excuse me, I will. Give it a chance.
Starting point is 00:18:54 I will deliver. I will deliver. Give it a chance. I always do. Here we go. Come on. Had it really been nine months? No, that starts when he starts talking.
Starting point is 00:19:03 I know, but it's been a long time and you haven't started yet. Had it really been nine months, No, that starts when he starts talking. I know, but it's been a long time and you haven't started yet. Had it really been nine months, I thought to myself, we're trying to count up the months since the last time me and Tony had been intimate with each other. Time had slipped away from us with the kids, Tony's knee operation and the kitchen reno. I decided after listening to The Edge, we needed
Starting point is 00:19:20 to partake in the Big Bang. So I said, Alexa, play Barry White. His song, Can't Get Enough of You, Babe, started playing and almost instantly my robe fell to the floor. Instant. Almost like magic, really. Just poof, off. Revealing my naked body, my hips already gyrating. It was a feeling I hadn't felt in months. Pure passion. She's got a hula hoop. Tony was about to arrive home from work.
Starting point is 00:19:48 He was in the Navy and had been away working on a massive frigate. Huge. One of the biggest you've ever seen. One of the biggest frigates in the Navy. I'd almost forgotten what it looked like. With my hips still moving side to side, I walked slowly. How long was she doing that before we got home? She's very aroused.
Starting point is 00:20:06 I know, but what if he's like 45 minutes away? She's like, jeez, I'm knackered. Sorry, mate, I started too early. Clint, if you haven't had sex for nine months, you've got to get yourself in the mood somehow. By the way, something's going to pop. I walk slowly to the bathroom, but I took my time bumping and grinding on anything
Starting point is 00:20:22 I could see in the way. She's like a rabid dog. She hasn't had any for nine months. Barry White comes on and she's absolutely on heat. Couches, benches, cats. Pumping the tendons. Okay. I'm in here, sailor. I said in a slurry tone.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Well, that's supposed to be sultry. Sorry, she's not drunk. Sultry, salty, slurry tone. It said slurry, so I'm doing slurry. Okay. I'm in here, sailor. He appeared
Starting point is 00:20:48 almost instantly, his body covered in sweat after nine months at sea. That's disgusting. Tony needs a shower. If you've been at sea for nine months. She could smell him
Starting point is 00:20:56 before she could see him. He's going to get in the bath. Right, it's true. It wasn't long before we were both in the bath sloshing back and forth. Ooh, I know, a shower's fine,
Starting point is 00:21:04 but like you're both using the same water that he is in, and he hasn't showered for almost a year. And you'd be like, you'd literally see this oil slick, like, moving towards you in the bath, being like, ooh, it's getting me. Okay. It wasn't long before in the bath sloshing back and forth, it seemed to go on for hours. I was a boat on the high seas
Starting point is 00:21:25 and he was my captain. His mast, the perfect match to my sail. And you went, actually this is better than I thought. With no water left in the bath, disturbing. What happened?
Starting point is 00:21:36 He drank it. This is why they need the kitchen, Reno. The bathroom's next, obviously. It's bloody flooded. No, they're sloshing back and forth. Yeah, so where's the water gone? Out of the bath.
Starting point is 00:21:44 Yeah. We reached our destination. Tony leaned over and whispered in my ear, thanks for letting me ride your ship. The pleasure is all mine. No, she's not
Starting point is 00:21:54 lisping now. No, you said she was slurring. It doesn't change it. She's not doing that. The pleasure is all mine, I whispered back. And besides,
Starting point is 00:22:02 I've always had a thing for semen. Oh. Oh. And if you're thinking that's dirty, she's meaning Navy men, like people that are on ships. Okay. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:22:16 That's bad. This is up, Neeks. If you thought that was good, you're in for a rocky ride, Neeks. I have been saying, yes, somebody texted me saying, we write erotic fiction for the female gaze. And people are saying, yeah, but it's always male and female, not two women.
Starting point is 00:22:31 G-A-Z-E, not G-A-Y-S. Yes, sorry. That does... Female gaze, like in their perspective. But we have done gay editions before. Yes, we have. We have, yeah. Women on women, men on men.
Starting point is 00:22:43 Not for the female gaze, like G-A-Y-S. Well, that men. Not for the female gays, like G-A-Y-S. Well, that was for the female gays. That was for the G-A-Y-S's, the week you guys did that. Although I feel like yours in particular, Clint, was definitely more for the male gays. Well, not gays, but the male. Anyway, it's a bad word. It's a bad word when you cut you.
Starting point is 00:22:59 It's confusing, isn't it? It's confusing, right. It's time for Clint's. You just heard Dan's. It was atrocious. When you hear the ding, my writing finishes. His begins. It is meantrocious. When you hear the ding, my writing finishes, his begins. It is meant to be a sexy story, sorry, an erotic fiction
Starting point is 00:23:09 written for women to enjoy, to rile them up for the big bang. But also, what an absolute hospital pass the way this story starts, I will say. Yeah, oh yeah, it doesn't start sexually. But anyway, hit the jams. Don't tell me what to do, mister. Daniel Weeby, you know better than that. You're taking your time, aren't you, really? You're a terrible...
Starting point is 00:23:31 You're killing good time. You're a terrible... Had it really been nine months, I thought to myself, while trying to count out the months since the last time me and Tony had been intimate with each other, time had slipped away with us, with the kids,
Starting point is 00:23:42 Tony's knee operation in the kitchen reno. I decided, after listening to The Edge, we needed to partake in the Big Bang. So I opened up the top cupboard in the bathroom, removed the deep heat, and made my way down the hall, pausing in the doorway of the bedroom. Deep heat? I looked
Starting point is 00:23:59 intently at Tony and raised my arm, switching the TV off that hung on the wall. Why? Sexy. Because he's watching TV. Why does it matter TV off that hung on the wall. Why? Sexy. Oh, because he's watching TV. Yeah, but why does it matter if it's hung on the wall or on a cabinet? While never taking... I guess it's a descriptive story, you dick. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:13 I don't think he ripped jewels to shreds. She stood in the doorway and then just, like, reached over and just flicked it off. While never taking... Do you want me to bend over and turn it off from the cabinet or something? Yes, please. While never taking my gaze, G-A-Z-E, off his, just not gaze. Yeah. While never taking my gaze off his, as if trying to devour him with my eyes.
Starting point is 00:24:34 You all right? He asked. I reached for the covers, pulling them off at the foot of the bed, and ran my hands up the inside of Tony's thighs to the back of his hamstring and elevated his leg. Then rubbed a generous amount of deep heat around the sides and underneath his knee. What's your physio? It sounds like it.
Starting point is 00:24:53 Damn it! You fucked with him. Nine months, she's trying to do something nice for me. She's just had a knee operation, so she's trying to reconnect. And to me, it says it all about just P and V and penetration, Dan. The methylated scent filled the room. Methylated. Yeah, thank you.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Jesus. She's already rubbing myths all over her. He's like, fuck. Methylated. Oh, sorry. Sorry, I'm so. Oh, my God. Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 00:25:16 We're cooked. Sorry, I've forgotten where I am. We're cooked. Sorry. We're cooked. I'm really sorry about that. Let me finish this story. Let me finish this story.
Starting point is 00:25:23 Oh, my goodness. Oh, my God, that feels good, Tony. That was so clear. Tony exhaled in relief to my fingers rubbing back and forth against his skin. Thank you, baby. I really appreciate you doing that. Oh, it's my pleasure.
Starting point is 00:25:37 I respond slowly. My breathing started to... My breathing started to become more intense. My chest rising higher. All she's doing is touching his leg at this point. Can I confirm that? I'm worried about it. It's the mentholated scent.
Starting point is 00:26:01 The mess got up her nostrils. My chest rising higher. My breath has desire intensified within my body. Yeah, the mess got up her nostrils. Praying mantis? It burns! It burns! I quickly stopped. What's wrong? You got deep heat all over my balls! Oh, you are God damn it.
Starting point is 00:26:33 She hasn't washed her hands. She was just rubbing it on his knees trying to spark into the seat. I told you. Tony moved faster than I've ever seen him standing in the shower spraying his undercarriage. I stared at the ceiling for a beat or two. A familiar sigh escaped my lungs and I reached for the remote and put the TV
Starting point is 00:26:49 back on. Right, and was that mounted or on a cabinet on the wall, just out of interest? It can happen sometimes. You're trying to spark intimacy and something happens and she's all over. And you think, oh well, give it another nudge tomorrow. And sometimes you try to write a short story. If anything we've learnt over the last two weeks is that... Never do this again.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Okay. No. Stacey, Stacey, Stacey, whose was the bigger story? Oh, they were both terrible, to be honest. Told you. Yeah, and I think it just gives such an insight into their own personal lives. Yeah, agreed. Stacey.
Starting point is 00:27:20 I'll tell you this, Stacey. Especially how Dan's going on about how she's, you know, like, you know, humping walls and couches and things like that. So I think, well, I think I'll have to go with Clint. But seriously, they were both terrible. Jeez, the one that they didn't even finish. And Clint's the... Incredible. All right, Stacey.
Starting point is 00:27:40 But like Clint said, it's not about, you know, the D and the B. It's about the process. He was doing a good thing with that deep heat. So the moral of the story is like injure your partner. No, no, always wash your hands after applying deep heat before you go anywhere near anyone near the region. Stacey, thank you and congratulations. Hopefully you will be finishing with the prize pack we're about to send you.
Starting point is 00:28:02 Yeah, naughty.nz if you want to check it out. Thank you. N-A-U-T-I, naughty.nz, and they've got a prize pack worth almost $800 coming out to you, Stace. Cheers, you're going to have a busy weekend. Okay, moving on, everybody. It's a new hour coming up.
Starting point is 00:28:15 Yep. Are we tidying it up after seven? Yep. The problem is, Meg, it's a new hour, but the same hosts. So that is a shame. I've been very, very casually doing some
Starting point is 00:28:26 open homing. It's actually, when you are on a bit of a budget, huge budget at the moment in my family, when maternity leave is coming up in a few months'
Starting point is 00:28:35 time, we are trying to find things that you can do for free that are entertaining for the family and the child that also just kill time. And sometimes it's
Starting point is 00:28:42 nice to go look at people's houses. You must be desperate. We've tried everything but open home. It's normally, you know, dry and parks get wet and it's free.
Starting point is 00:28:56 What else? Do you put your real phone number down because then don't the real estate agents call you and message you and you're like, oh, you're going to have to try and wriggle out of the next six calls because you're not
Starting point is 00:29:08 actually interested in the house. Husband's really good at it. And also we are still genuine we are still you know interested
Starting point is 00:29:14 enough to like look around and be like what's in the area? Sure. But I did notice when I went to my most recent one there was a trampoline
Starting point is 00:29:20 and I was like that's great. My daughter I asked them first of course and I said would you mind if my daughter goes on it? They actually seemed really keen on it because it kind of gave a family vibe. You know, like, there's a
Starting point is 00:29:30 cute little cat bouncing. It was always like a paid actor moment. You're helping out other buyers. Yes. And they want you to really see yourself living here, and I guess it's nothing better than seeing your kid jump on a trampoline in the backyard. It's true. It did actually sell it a lot more to me. I'm not even going to lie. I was like, wow, this could be really nice.
Starting point is 00:29:46 If anything, they should have feel free to use the trampoline and be encouraging kids to do that. And I was saying this and I was telling you guys, and Dan, you brought this up. Some of the fancier ones as well have a charcuterie board. Oh, no, they do not. Shut up. Oh, gorgeous.
Starting point is 00:29:59 No, they do not. No, but that's just, they put that, I think, on the picnic table outside to make you feel like, wow, this could be you entertaining. I don't think it's for you. It's probably really old stuff. It was in the pantry as well. I thought it was a good place to keep it.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Yeah, genuinely, I've been to, it hasn't been many of them. I mean, the lion's share of open homes don't have a charcuterie board. But I think if you pay for like the premium, like it's usually the nicer houses, they have something. Whether it be coffee. I've been to one before where they had a coffee cart outside and they're making coffees. And is it free coffee? Yeah. For anybody that comes along. So the real estate company
Starting point is 00:30:36 must think, oh, that's a nice little incentive to get people if there's a lot of open homes in the area to go to their one because you get a coffee start there first. I mean, it shows the calibre of houses I'm looking at because I've never been to a house that has a coffee cart or a charcuterie
Starting point is 00:30:48 but I love the idea. There was at one of them though one of the kids that lived there said feel free to take one and they left out
Starting point is 00:30:55 QBs from Woolworths so you could take a QB packet and that's nice so that was a freebie. Yes. Even the kids are trying to get
Starting point is 00:31:02 out of that. Mum's everything I can do to get us out of here? Please, I can offer any of my toys. Okay, well, I've never seen it. I actually genuinely think that there'll be people out there that go to open homes like you, Meg, but they're not even interested in buying a house. They just want a free lunch.
Starting point is 00:31:21 See, I've never done that. I've always had interest, always. Sushi. There's sometimes sushi. They'll have like a St. Pierre's platter. There was that a free lunch. No. See, I've never done that. I've always had interest. Always. Sushi. There's sometimes sushi. They'll have like a St. Pierre's platter. There was that Vince Vaughn movie. Wedding crashes. And Owen Wilson. And yeah, wedding crashes.
Starting point is 00:31:34 And then, you know, then his mate talks about funeral crashing. Is anyone doing open home crashing? Where you just go to open homes because of the perks that you get and they just enjoy snooping through other people's houses and having a look and getting a free coffee and sushi? There's definitely people that are like Meg, just perusing. They're going
Starting point is 00:31:49 for the food mainly though, because they know that that's what... I'd also love to know what's the best open home you've been to. I didn't know these things existed. So maybe you're not open home crashing but you've been to one and you're like, oh my god. This is a hack. Why don't more open home realtor companies do this? Yeah, and why don't people more realise you can get...
Starting point is 00:32:06 It happens with renting too. What? Yeah, some of the better houses. Like if you've got a big flat of seven, you can get a big house for that. Yeah, and so they're also trying to entice good tenants with sushi. To stand out amongst the crowd, some open homes, whether they're looking for people to rent Or buy
Starting point is 00:32:26 Will have coffee carts out the front And like Charcuterie boards and stuff To make you just feel like Oh this is nice and homely Oh I could host here Yeah I mean
Starting point is 00:32:35 Beers? Has anyone given beers? Surely not beers If you've got a one o'clock Like an early Arvo Saturday Yeah Help yourself to a beer from the chilli
Starting point is 00:32:44 I don't think they can serve beers Because you need a licence for that, right? But if it's a private, if you're not selling them and it's private property, how is that different to hosting a party? Yeah. I mean, there is a lot of stories that have come through over the last 24 hours since we talked about this yesterday of different things that they're using to entice people in. Someone texted yesterday as well, they said that there was a bouncy castle at one of them. So it was like a family house, they were enticing
Starting point is 00:33:08 families along, so they just erected a bouncy castle. Sometimes it happens the other way around. Neeps was just telling me, they weren't trying to entice you, you were trying to entice the landlord. Yeah, well, I live in a flat of five boys, and it's not the most attractive to a landlord or a real estate
Starting point is 00:33:24 agent or whatever, so we brought Yaz from the workday along, and she was like our female co-part. And then when we went to sign the lease, they go, hey, wasn't there a female at the viewing with you guys? I'm seeing five boys on the list here. What's the go with that? Yaz would probably be the messier of them all. Yeah, exactly. That's why our gender-neutral names are the best.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Ashley, Cameron, Ash, Cam. You know, you're like, oh, those are guys? Sam. You're like, is it Samantha or is it Sam, Ashley and Cam all living with us? Speaking of which, it's Sam, Sam right here. Morning, Sam. Good morning, guys. How are you? Good.
Starting point is 00:33:59 What was it, the open home, that you were like, wow, this is fancy? Yeah, so I went to this open home in Christchurch and as you guys have been saying, there was a free coffee cart where you could just help yourself. Yeah, and they usually put, was it placed like out on the road? So basically if you were just going for a walk, you could get a free coffee.
Starting point is 00:34:17 Yeah, yeah, yeah, you could grab as many as you like. I grabbed one for myself and one for my flatmate and yeah, it was fantastic. Isn't Ray White, because we've been hearing Ray White does, that has like a Ray White coffee cart specifically for open homes? Yeah, I can't remember what exactly the company was, but yeah, it was wild.
Starting point is 00:34:37 It's the first time I've ever experienced that. And Sam still remembers. Yeah. Did you buy that? Did you get the rental of the house? What's that, sorry? Did you like buy the house the house? I do. What's that, sorry? Did you, like, buy the house
Starting point is 00:34:46 or the rental? No? Nah, nah, just go for the free. No, just people with the coffee beans. Do you know what, we're getting a Mr. Whoopie there.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Yeah. The good thing about it is there'd be heaps of people that are just coming for the coffee, which is actually fine because it makes it look like there's lots of interest
Starting point is 00:35:02 in the house. And there might only be two interested buyers there, but they're like, oh, God, we'd better get in. We've got to put in a good offer because look how many people are here. All right, let's go to Sarah. Sarah is the first-time caller. For the first time in forever.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Hello, stranger. For the first time. Morning, Sarah, for the first time. Hi. How are you? Good, how are you going? Yeah, doing well. And so what happened to you?
Starting point is 00:35:28 You went to an open home. Why was it bougie? What was the best fun? Yeah, we went to an open home and they had mimosas and these little individual cups of charcuterie board. So it had cheese, crackers, grapes. Individual cups that you could walk around with.
Starting point is 00:35:43 Oh my God, it's like a party bag. Yeah, so you could take it and walk it around. Wow. It's pretty good. Is it a real like fancy, like expensive house or are they just doing them everywhere now? No, I would say it's just your standard house in Wellington. So yeah, it was unexpected.
Starting point is 00:35:56 And I think it was only like 10.30 or 11 o'clock in the morning. So I was like, yeah, good time for a mimosa. What I'd do is memorise who that agent was, because that must be their thing, you know, that real estate agent. And then I just go to every open home that they had for a little bit of morning tea every Saturday. Sorry, aren't you, Dan? I'm still in the market.
Starting point is 00:36:14 I thought you weren't looking over. You were in Christchurch yesterday. I'm not going to a different city for a charcuterie board. Sarah, do you live there now? No, we didn't buy that. A lot of people just taking the cheese and coffee. Rod has texted saying it was Barfoot's. Barfoot's have the coffee cart normally at auctions.
Starting point is 00:36:34 So go along. Don't raise your hand. Don't scratch. Don't itch. Don't change your hair. Just sit on your hands. Unless someone goes, who wants the flat white? And you go, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Sold. $2.6 million to the man with the flat white. Today's the day, the big bang. Our great relationship was in a dead fish place. Life was busy. Sex had vanished. Was it actually over? Wait. The edge began to scheme.
Starting point is 00:36:58 The studio began to steam. Clint, Meg and Dan said, hey, then why not six for all? Let's have an orgasm. You, me and your mum and the guy that lives next door to me, we're all gonna have a big bang. All right, so we are all in. We all just assumed we were in, but then we thought, ah, we should actually call our partners and make sure.
Starting point is 00:37:15 Yeah, they're the most important people in our lives, unless we've got a mistress somewhere, Clint. Well, on Monday, we called Meg's husband, Guy. It rang, and this was the first word. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That was it. Now, are. It rang and this was the first word. Yep. Yeah. Yeah, that was it. Now, are you saying yep as in answering the phone
Starting point is 00:37:29 or are you just answering our question, yep? Both. Brilliant. Yeah. And I missed your chat with your wife, Hannah, Dan, and whether she was keen yesterday. Yeah, well, I'd said I hadn't even mentioned it, but she lied. Look, Meg, you say I haven't heard a bit.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Yeah. Dan has mentioned it every single day lied. Look, Meg, you say I haven't heard a bit. Yeah. Dan has mentioned it every single day. Every day. For you. You. I wouldn't have said. Pathetic.
Starting point is 00:37:54 I have not mentioned it once. I believe Hannah over you. So he's brought it up to be like, oh, babe, we've got this Big Bang thing to do. I haven't. Hannah, when have I mentioned it? Every day. I wouldn't have said so.
Starting point is 00:38:11 So anyway, that's the sort of thing that she just stitches me up. She thinks she's funny. Okay. That was hilarious. She is funny. I think my wife listens
Starting point is 00:38:18 to our show a lot so I'm sure she knows about it but we've never actually talked about whether we were locking it in. It's not in the calendar. The way you talk, I think every day is a big bang for you, isn't it? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:38:31 You've been talking to her. I'll see what she says anyway. Yeah. See if she's in. Hopefully. She's going to answer. Hello, Jamie speaking. Hey, babe.
Starting point is 00:38:40 It's me, Meg and Dan. Hi. Good morning. Hello. Good morning. Good. Good morning. Good to see you. What are you doing? I'm currently at the hospital.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Just on the way to visit my grandma, taking her a little smoothie and some, you know, tweezers to make her feel better about not having as many chin hairs. Oh, that's nice. Oh, that's lovely. You're so great. Yeah, this is... So it's for a very...
Starting point is 00:39:04 I'll let you do it, Clint. Are we on for tonight? Yeah. Oh, there you go. Do you know what's happening? It's like a no-brainer. We haven't talked about it, but I just assumed that... Although it's Shark Week, so...
Starting point is 00:39:18 Jeez! Goodness me. Okay. Yes. You're going to have a creative night. Yeah. Didn't know you guys had Sky. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:26 Didn't either. Nat Geo's still doing that, are they? Got nothing to do with what we're doing. Thank you for that. We normally watch National Geographic on a Wednesday. You're right. That's all right. We can skip it this one time.
Starting point is 00:39:38 So locked in. That's it. I will tell Grandma I said hi. Okay. Bye, babe. Love you. See you, Jamie. Bye.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Love you. Okay. All right, babe. Love you. See you, Jamie. Bye. Love you. Bye. So. Why are you paying Jaws? Oh, I see. It's that week. Clearly. God, your brain.
Starting point is 00:39:54 Sometimes. Oh, I'm just going through Dan's Google history. You'll be shocked at what his brain has been like this week. I think something's going on. You need to go to the doctor. Really? Just watching how your brain works, yeah. I'm looking to it.
Starting point is 00:40:10 But I'm very happy for you, Clint. Do you know that game? Sometimes I look at Dan, I imagine this is what's happening inside his brain. Was it called Pong? Where it had like two paddles, top and bottom, and there's just a ball that bounced around the screen. You just move the paddles,
Starting point is 00:40:20 and it's just one ball just bouncing around inside the space. Yeah, there's not two paddles, I'm just hitting it against one wall. Clint, Meg and Dan. Would you give your phone to your mates to let them go rifling through your Google search history and then tell the country what you've been searching? Dan does that every week. Yeah, thankfully.
Starting point is 00:40:37 So let's get into Dan's Google history. What's in Dan's Google history? Is it sexy? Is it weird? Will it solve a great big mystery? Or just something new with you? A bit of a running theme with this week, Dan. As best as you can, I would like you to stay quiet between these because there's a lot to get through. What if I need to defend myself?
Starting point is 00:40:58 You can put your hand up. Okay. Okay, because I feel like there's going to be... Not yet, put it down. There's going to be... It's just... These are all consecutive, Clint. So these are Googled one after each other.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Okay. Which I just think it's amazing where his brain goes. It's fascinating. Here we go. We start off with rug doctor. Then we go, why can I smell ants? Oh, yeah, because... Hand up.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Yeah, you've got... Well, we're going to... We up. Yeah, you've got... Well, we're going to... We'll figure out very quickly you've got ants, Dan. Don't worry about that. It's just a new house and there's a bit of an issue. Why can I smell ants? Next. Ant exterminator.
Starting point is 00:41:36 Next. Pest control. Next. Fly spray. Next, Google. Spray ants to kill them. Next, Google. Where do ants nest? Next, Google. Spray ants to kill them. Next Google.
Starting point is 00:41:46 Where do ants nest? Next Google. How to find a queen. Next Google. Ants, do they like sugar? Yes, of course they do. Next Google. Ants, do they like cat food?
Starting point is 00:42:00 Yes to both. Next Google. What don't ants like? Because I was trying to get rid of it. Next, Google, vinegar. I realise you spelt it wrong. Next, Google, vinegar. Spelt it right.
Starting point is 00:42:19 Then you Googled, how much vinegar to pour on ants? Why does vinegar smell bad? And your last Google was rug doctor. To do with ants. That was your next one up. No, because I put some vinegar on the carpet and then Hannah came home and said, what's that smell? Why does it smell like vinegar?
Starting point is 00:42:31 And I said, I put some vinegar on the carpet. And she's like, you're going to have to clean that up. Yes, you need to get a rug doctor by the end of it. Now the bizarre thing is, Clint, after all that big night, right? Big night for our Dan. The next thing he Googled was box gap world record. What's in Dan's Google history?
Starting point is 00:42:50 Is it sexy? Is it weird? Will it solve a great big mystery? Or just something new? And you'd be pleased to know, Clint, it hasn't been achieved yet. So is there something new? What, like a box gap between thighs? Between thighs, like a woman's box gap.
Starting point is 00:43:03 Yeah. What do you mean it hasn't been achieved? What do you mean? Well, there's no world record for it. You want Clint to have it? I don't know. He likes achieving world records. Oh, he's not got that thin of legs.
Starting point is 00:43:13 I don't think I have a box gap. I saw on a website, there was this thing, and the headline was, I think it was on stuff.co.nz. Really? Biggest box gap. Sounds like the hub, not stuff. No, it was an above on stuff.co.nz. Really? Biggest box gap. Sounds like the hub, not stuff. No, it was an above board website. Really?
Starting point is 00:43:28 I don't know. It was like the return of the box gap or something and it was saying that now it's back in again and girls are trying to achieve the biggest box gap. And I was like, I wonder if there is a record for that. Right. Is that the same as the Toblerone?
Starting point is 00:43:41 Pardon? Yeah, the Toblerone thing. Like a little triangle at the top of your thighs. Yeah. Oh, cool. So do you want to champion the box gap world record? No, I don't think it is possible. So I was just Googling it.
Starting point is 00:43:53 That's the thing. I don't know. How does that look as a show, Meg? I mean, our faces are on the billboard as well. We were trying to find women who have the largest box gap between thighs. I'll quit before we do that. Yeah, okay, cool. I promise you that would be my final day.
Starting point is 00:44:06 If I came into a meeting with my six other boys, and they said, Meg, we've got something brilliant. We're going to find the biggest box gap with women. I'd be like, see you later, boys. I'm out. That's my cue. I was more of a meaning that Clint tries to achieve it. But hey, if you want to go that way, we can.
Starting point is 00:44:22 The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. The big bang going down tonight. 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.
Starting point is 00:44:35 The studio began to steam. Clint, Meg and Dan said, hey, then why not sex for all? Let's have an orgasm. You, me and your mom and the guy that lives next door to me. We're all going to have a big bang. It's different when you have a holistic sex and relationship coach. Melissa Vrangi sitting in studio with us listening to that for the first time. Yeah, good morning. It's a lot, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:44:54 It is. Yeah, yeah, it's a lot. It's a lot. It's a lot. Yeah, yeah. Explain to us what you do. So essentially you're a sexologist. I'm working with mostly women around their sex life
Starting point is 00:45:06 and wanting to have better connection, sex, relationship. So this all stemmed, by the way, from somebody messaging me or in our DM saying that they're in a very loving, happy, long-term relationship with their husband and they have found from having kids that sex has been put on the back burner so much so that it got to a point of almost awkwardness to bring it back. But it wasn't an unhappy relationship and she didn't know how to take that next step again because it felt like they didn't know how to reopen that door.
Starting point is 00:45:37 Would you find, from what we've found at least, that a lot of people are in the same sort of boat? A hundred percent. Absolutely. I think every workshop I do, every space that I'm in, that is the same question that keeps coming up over and over again. So normal. And I want people to know that, that if you are here, it's okay. You know, it's a season and a phase of your life and you can move through that. And how do you move through that? Because I'd imagine there's not one silver bullet for every relationship's different. Yeah, absolutely. And I think it all depends as well. So let's just go for one example. The thing that I always come back to, it's an opportunity to go, babe, I want to find out more
Starting point is 00:46:16 about you. Tell me what you like in the bedroom. Tell me what you enjoy in the bedroom and like connecting in that way through your desires and wants and needs. It's almost like how can we bring in what I call sexual currency which is the passionate kissing the slow touches, the bum squeezes that make you see each other as sexual people again.
Starting point is 00:46:37 That for me is the absolute start after a conversation. Yeah and so that's why we're wondering if the Big Bang is something we've been leaning up to for the last of weeks. Now you're like, great, here's an opportunity for us to get our sex life back on track. But it also maybe comes with a lot of pressure if it's been a long time. So how do you navigate the excitement of wanting to kickstart your intimacy, but also the pressure that comes with tonight being the night? What about if tonight's the night that you talk about your turn ons and offs? What about if tonight is the night that you talk about your turn-ons and offs? What about tonight is the night that you just map
Starting point is 00:47:06 each other's body and pleasure map it? So there's no like inserting or penetrating or, you know, it's like actually making what is the big bang for you and your partner and talking about that, being like, babe, I'm listening to the edge. What could we make of it together?
Starting point is 00:47:22 Because sex is a collaboration always. There are women out there that have probably not even having good sex to completion because they're too nervous after years and years to say, that doesn't work for me, I don't like that. When you do that, even though you think it's awesome, it's not for me. How do you start that conversation without hurting feelings of your wonderful partner? Absolutely. That they're not doing it right.
Starting point is 00:47:46 Totally. I wouldn't even talk about that thing. I would go into what I'm going to come back to again is the turn on and off sheets. Get a piece of paper, draw a line down the middle, turn on, turn off, write down everything that turns you on all through your senses, through your thoughts and imagination, your environment and what turns you off.
Starting point is 00:48:03 And that turn off section is like, babe, these are the things that turn me off. Yeah? So if you feel... Because he's smart enough, indirectly, you should be like, I did that. You're already going, jeez. Are we doing missionary every time? Every time I'm doing that third and fourth and fifth turn off. And then, you know, that's something you can laugh about being like, oh, God.
Starting point is 00:48:24 A morning breath turns you off. Like, what happens in the morning? It's like, well, you know, that's something you can laugh about being like, oh, God. A morning breath turns you off. Like, what happens in the morning? It's like, well, you know. So it's just like, actually, it doesn't have to be serious. It can just be about exploring. And are you playing like match up where you go turn on and you're like, oh, look at that turn on. It matches. That sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Is that? I mean, I guess you could. You totally could. I don't do that. But you absolutely could. I wouldn't do that, Meg. As an could. I don't do that, but you absolutely could. I wouldn't do that, Meg. As an expert, I wouldn't do that. All right, cool.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Well, if you'd like to chat with Melissa or you've got a question in regards to the Big Bang or even your sex life, give us a call. 0800 THE EDGE. We'll take a quick break and we'll, I guess, try and rinse your brain with some more free advice. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Special guests in studio with us still. Melissa Varangie is in studio with us at the moment, holistic sex and relationship coach, with the Big Bang happening tonight. She's given us all the tips and tricks and things to maybe consider if you have been on the fence the last couple of weeks about whether you'll participate in the Big Bang or not. If you've got any questions, 0800 THE EDGE.
Starting point is 00:49:24 First quick text, and I think I'm probably going to know the answer to this. My partner and I haven't had sex in about eight months. I don't even know how to break the ice. What would be your suggestion for us? Okay, you said you knew the answer. Well, we sort of kind of... No, go on, Dan.
Starting point is 00:49:38 No, we touched on it before, and you said write a list. Like, start with... Don't even go into like penetrative stuff or even sexual stuff. Oh, Dan is sexologist. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I love it. But I don't want to put words in your mouth. It's different when you say the P word, Dan. I shouldn't say it, should I? But yeah,
Starting point is 00:49:56 if they missed that first break it was running a list. Yeah, running a list. Having a conversation. What do you want from sex? Connection, closeness. You know, a lot of people think it's just about getting off and actually when we strip it back,
Starting point is 00:50:12 it's about connection and closeness. How can we start to bring in connection and closeness before we even have the sex? Say, okay, say we're in a relationship. I'm the guy and we haven't had sex in eight months, Melissa. What are your first words to start that convo? You know to break that awkwardness is it like let's talk about sex like what is that yeah I think it's but sometimes it's easier to use something so it would be like hey I've been listening to the edge and they've been talking about this and it's got me curious about
Starting point is 00:50:39 what you are experiencing right now with our sex life because And it's kind of saying, this feels really vulnerable for me, but I think we should talk about it. How does that feel for you instead of diving into problems? Yeah. Okay, we have Amy who's got a fake name. What is your question for Melissa? Hi there. I recently just had my first child and I've had a few birth complications.
Starting point is 00:51:03 So I'm currently not in the position with my partner where we're going to be able to have sex for probably a wee while until things are operational again. So I guess I just wanted some advice or notes on some things that could be like intimacy builders for us. First thing I think of straight away is redefining your definition of sex. Because sex isn't just PMV. You know, sex is the touching. It's the, like, massaging. It's the passionate kissing.
Starting point is 00:51:32 It's the bum massages, you know? So it's like, okay, how can we come back into intimately connecting with one another? What would that look like? Yeah. Thanks, Amy. And one more text. Sorry if we haven't had time to come through to all of your texts
Starting point is 00:51:46 because there's so many coming through, but I'll just get to this one because this one's interesting. My wife and I have different libidos. Always have, except for the first part
Starting point is 00:51:53 of the month of our relationship, we were fine. There's a great analogy if I have time to share this. I'll do it really quickly. Your friend invites you out and you're going to a party,
Starting point is 00:52:00 yeah? And you're like, yeah, great idea. I haven't been to a party in ages. Let's do this. And then it comes to the time you're like, oh, I've got to get childcare. I've got to get, oh, I can't involve.
Starting point is 00:52:08 It's a Friday night. You know, we've all been there. And then you're like, okay, I'm going to put on some tunes. I'm going to do my make-out, put on the drink. Yeah, I'm starting to feel good. And then you rock up to the party. You have a drink and you're like, oh, this is actually really fun. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:23 And then you end up being like, we should do this more often. I love this. Yeah. And it's like sex, sometimes it takes a runway to get to that point of like, this is great. We should do this more often. And it's just understanding that that runway is acceptable, normal, and okay. I think a lot of it has to do with movies and stuff.
Starting point is 00:52:41 Like you watch movies and they're just straight into it. Yeah. Not even any prep, you know, like, he'll open the door. Prep. They're, like, straight, like, rip their clothes off and they're straight into it. That doesn't happen in real life. They might have had four episodes to build up to that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:57 Okay, so then, I guess, last question. Are you in on the Big Bang yourself, Melissa? Absolutely. Okay. Any opportunity. Yeah, exactly. Love that. All right. Well, if you'd like to come together with the rest of the country to reignite the spark
Starting point is 00:53:09 in your relationship, tonight is the night. Best of luck with whatever that looks like for you. And Melissa, thank you so much for coming in and chatting with us. Thank you, guys. Clint, Megan, Dan. Let's go! With a share of $50,000. Cash. With the edge. Cash trapped. Trapped. Alright,000. Cash. With the edge. Cash strapped.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Strapped. Strapped. All right, everyone's strapped to cash, including us at the edge, but maybe not in the way you think. Friday, if you're at the North Ground in Dunedin at 8 o'clock and you win the three-legged race, you'll leave with $3,000.
Starting point is 00:53:38 Whoa. But right now, right now, we have Dan strapped with a mystery cash amount in studio. All over my body. It's been like this for weeks. Clara's the lucky person that's able to play this morning.
Starting point is 00:53:51 Hi, Clara. Good morning. Clara, what do you need money for? So my hot water cylinder broke down over the weekend, so we're just needing to replace that. Oh, yeah, that can be expensive. I'd imagine a hot water cylinder. What sort of money are you after?
Starting point is 00:54:07 I've had a look at it, and it's around $2,000 starting price, but, yeah. Oh, you poor thing. So no matter what you end up getting today, it's all just going to go to a boring fix, but a necessity. Unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:54:20 Yeah. I think it's pretty exciting. It's not exciting to get a new hot water cylinder. It just means your water's hot again. It's a hot air. That would be the most amount of money we've ever given away, I think, with me or you, Dan. Dan's had three grandstrapped him before,
Starting point is 00:54:35 but unfortunately they just didn't go for it. They didn't go for it. Well, I definitely don't have that amount of money, Clara, but I'll give you a decent chunk this morning towards $500. Okay. That's the most amount of money I think I've offered in maybe a month. Yeah, that is a very generous offer. Yeah, yeah. And Dan,
Starting point is 00:54:53 I wasn't here yesterday, but Dan had $18. Is that right? Yesterday, yeah. Yeah. But then you've got to ask yourself, Clara, the question, will it be a small amount strapped to me again today? I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:55:06 And if Meg's offering $500, how much has Dan got? Because typically you do have more, but who knows, you might be turning down a great offer and walk away disappointed. That's the risk you're going to take. What are you going to do, Clara? Are you going to go with Meg's generous offer of $500 or risk that money and go with what's strapped to me?
Starting point is 00:55:21 Nobody would risk $500 if it was offered to them in any other situation. In their hand. What do you guys think? I think take my money. Yeah, me would think that. I would say maybe risk it if you can afford it.
Starting point is 00:55:33 But then again, Clara, I do not know what I've got strapped to me. That's how it works. Do you look at it this way? What would you be more disappointed by? Dan offering you $50
Starting point is 00:55:41 or would you be more disappointed if you found out Dan had $1,500 and you took $5? Probably later because I do out risk it. Okay, you're going to what?
Starting point is 00:55:53 I'm going to risk it. Okay, we go with the cash trip to Dan. $500. $500. It's an interesting choice because it's one of the highest amounts that Meg has ever offered. I think it might be the highest, actually, if I'm being honest. All right.
Starting point is 00:56:11 Let's see what I've got strapped to you. Clara. She wants a hot water cylinder. He's got his head in his hands. It's not looking good. How big's your jug at home? The kettle. Not big. Yeah. He's got his head in his hands. It's not looking good. How big's your jug at home? On the kettle? Mm.
Starting point is 00:56:26 Oh, not big. Yeah, because you're going to have to boil that to heat the water a bit longer because I'm only giving you $230. I'm happy with that, thank you. Happy with that. Thank me. You lost half of it or just over, but I mean, still, $230 richer than you were, I suppose, before you called up.
Starting point is 00:56:45 I mean, that's the thing. Sometimes you roll the dice and it's going to come back. You get so annoyed that they're like, no, and then Dan gives them less and they go, thank you, that's awesome. Yeah. I think we're just built differently
Starting point is 00:56:57 because when you said that thing of like, would you be more angry that you lost $500 or more angry that if Dan had more money, I would always be more angry that I lost $500. Lost money than you could have made more. Could have made more, yeah. But that's just, I guess. It's just that tempting thing of going, shit, I could have the whole hot water cylinder paid for here.
Starting point is 00:57:15 Yeah, it's like an all or nothing type scenario. You're only here once. You're like, oh, I'm just going to go for it. Sorry, Clara, but that's just the way it happens. All right. Clint, Meg and Dan. Spooky bit. Go for it. Sorry, Clara, but that's just the way it happens. All right. Clint, Meg and Dan. Pinky Boop. The Big Bang is happening around the country tonight
Starting point is 00:57:27 as everyone comes together and reignites the spark in their relationship. Who's participating? Who's excited about the day? 0800 there, you can text us on 3343. Turns out a lot of people, Meg, a lot of people texting through on the text machine saying either they're partaking tonight or they've already done the deed, so to speak.
Starting point is 00:57:53 What about this? I'm 35 weeks pregnant. Husband and I are going to give it a go. Give the big bang a go, they say. Bloody hell. You've got to get creative with positions at that point, I tell you what, Tim. My partner and I are in, we won't share names, even though sometimes we see them.
Starting point is 00:58:07 My partner and I are in, it says, we're in Christchurch, but we live with his nana. Oh, now that's tricky. Maybe they need a hotel room. You'd have to get to Queenstown or something, though. What's Nana's hearing like, though? I was going to say, take her hearing aids out, hide them for the night. You know how they take them out. They don't sleep with them in.
Starting point is 00:58:24 I think it's more depending if the house is on some sort of shaky ground. It's more the movement, right? Bloody, if you're shaking the house, goodness me, poor grandma. Poor nana. She's like, oh, Christ, it might just be triggering.
Starting point is 00:58:38 Right, let's go to Charmaine. Hey, Charmaine. Hello. Hey, you in tonight with the Big Bang? We're in. You're in. Hello. Hey, you in tonight with the Big Bang? We're in. You're in. Hey, nice. Good to hear.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Okay. That's just a solid in. What about Michelle? Hi. Hey, Michelle. What are you thinking? What are your thoughts around the Big Bang tonight? Oh, I'd love to.
Starting point is 00:59:00 Would you? Love to join in. Are you a couple that you don't mind me asking, that connects often? Or is this a good excuse for you to kind of get back into it? Oh, it's a real good excuse to get into it. Back into it. In a while. Love that, Michelle.
Starting point is 00:59:14 Love that for you guys. Yeah, exciting. Have a good time. All right. Jeremy, you've got some kids that you maybe need to get away from. I sure do. I'm totally in. Oh, you're totally in.
Starting point is 00:59:26 Wait, how many kids you got? Two, but they wake up through the night, so it feels like I've got more than two kids. Yeah, I know what that's like. Have you got a babysitter, though, available? Oh, we can arrange something. Okay. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Good on you, Jeremy. Amber's also in tonight for the Big Bang. Amber? Hi. Hi. You're in me? Amber's also in tonight for the Big Bang. Amber? Hi. Hi. Yeah. You're in? We are.
Starting point is 00:59:49 Oh, we're gay. We are. From what it seems like, there's a lot of people now that are kind of going, you know what, I was thinking about doing it, now we're actually doing it. The day's here. And the power of numbers, eh? Or confidence in numbers.
Starting point is 01:00:02 If you know anyone else who's given a nudge. What about Rick? Yeah, I hear Rick is definitely in. In confidence in numbers, if you know everyone else is giving a nudge. What about Rick? Yep, I hear Rick is definitely in. In fact, Rick, have you already ticked it off? Is that right? I have. I was lucky enough this morning, yep. Wow! Was that your idea? Was that like a, hey, babe?
Starting point is 01:00:17 I think it was a joint idea, yeah. Nice! New relationship. I had to leave at six, so, you know, we didn't have much time, but we got there. It's baffling. Like, crazy to me how many people, like, pre-6 a.m. Yeah. Just, like, starting their day with it like it's a coffee.
Starting point is 01:00:32 Good on you. You know what, Rick? I don't think I have ever done it that early. Slick Rick. What? I have never. Just never. Well, maybe tomorrow morning's the morning, Dan.
Starting point is 01:00:41 Oh, but the big bag's over by then. Wow, another one. You had a celebration at 3 a.m. this morning, and we're going again tonight. I love this. Good for you. Joanne, you were in? Yeah, we're in.
Starting point is 01:00:54 Well, Joanne, where in the country are you? We're in Auckland. Okay, have you got kids? We have two kids, yeah. Okay. Okay. Could you sneak away tonight and get a babysitter if we hooked you up with a night's accommodation in town somewhere?
Starting point is 01:01:11 In a hotel? Absolutely. We will find anybody that we can. Anybody? I would like you to have your children to be safe. Please don't just find anyone. We will be any of our friends and the grandparents to babysit. Yeah, good.
Starting point is 01:01:25 Okay. All right, Joanne, we're going to sort you out. We're going to sort you out with a staycation night away from the kids so you can celebrate the Big Bang tonight. Congratulations. Yeah, if anybody's available. Thank you so much. You're very welcome.
Starting point is 01:01:35 Babysit Joanne's kids. Yeah, anybody. Anybody at all. Anybody. Anybody can. Love that. Oh, good. That's exciting.
Starting point is 01:01:42 All right, well, looking forward to finding out if it's something that actually is, I guess, a new thing that people can, or you can get on a new track, you know, if you've sort of, like, been in that rut for a while, or it's been really a long dry spell, and this might be the kickstart. Someone's saying there may be some large antenatal classes towards the end of this year because of this.
Starting point is 01:02:06 A baby boom. A baby boom. Wow. Yeah, they go back to April 9th, 2025. What happened on that day? We've been giving you the chance to give someone in your life a wonderful Wednesday over the last probably five or six weeks thanks to New World and we had a bit
Starting point is 01:02:22 of a covert mission the other day and surprised Abby along with the help from her mum, Catherine, who was in on the whole thing. Weren't they the loveliest pair? Oh, they were lovely. What a great mum and daughter. So imagine you're just having like a normal, what you think is a normal day.
Starting point is 01:02:35 You're just going about your business, but then there are all these things that are just coincidentally happening to you throughout the morning just to give you a wonderful day and you have no idea why coincidentally they just keep on happening to you throughout the morning just to give you a wonderful day and you have no idea why, coincidentally, they just keep on happening to you? And it was up to us, the three of us,
Starting point is 01:02:50 think of that, to make sure it ran smoothly. Yeah, Dan had a walkie-talkie. He was extremely excited about it. And an earpiece. He got very angry at us one time, maybe because I was like, whoa, whoa, Dan. Yeah, power trip, power trip. I was trying to organise it.
Starting point is 01:03:02 They gave me the walkie-talkie, which meant I was in charge. I think Dan was nervous because he knew he had to sing. Here we whoa, Dan. Yeah, power trip, power trip. I was trying to organise it. I was honestly, they gave me the walkie-talkie, which meant I was in charge. I think Dan was nervous because he knew he had to sing. Here we go, guys. You can dance. You can dance. Why does he think that that would make Abby's morning wonderful? Because she liked Abba.
Starting point is 01:03:17 I didn't just pick it out of thin air. I know, I was about to say. But you were singing it. I still don't think. Well, I wasn't going to sing Michael Jackson, was I? No, you didn't need to sing anything But you were singing it. I still don't think. Well, I wasn't going to sing Michael Jackson, was I? You didn't sing anything. It's weird. I let you drive around my mind.
Starting point is 01:03:33 I can't count the times you made me feel like I'm nothing. Played me like a fool, like a fool. Say you drink another whiskey, pop another pill. Money makes you happy. Heaven isn't real. You won't find nobody to love because your heart's too broke. Now I know you ain't nothing but a liar. Yeah, I walk right out the fire.
Starting point is 01:04:14 Yeah, you try to keep me down, try to put me underground, but I'm only going higher. I can hear you in my head, in my bed when I'm dreaming. You try to be my friend, but you're blowing slow. Oh, and now I ain't scared of telling you where you can go. Cause I know you're nothing but a lie. You burn me one too many times. Like a devil in disguise, hiding your true colors. Just leave me alone. Keep leading me on.
Starting point is 01:04:48 Say you drank another whiskey, pop another pill. Money makes you happy. Heaven isn't real. You won't find nobody to love because your heart's too broke. Now I know you ain't nothing but a liar Yeah, I walk right out the fire Yeah, you try to keep me down Try to put me on the ground
Starting point is 01:05:16 But I'm only going higher I can hear you in my head In my bed when I'm dreaming You try to be my friend But you're blowing slow I can hear you in my head, my bed when I'm dreaming. You try to be my friend, but you're blowing slow. Oh, and now I ain't scared of telling you where you can go. Cause I poisoned you You're nothing but a liar
Starting point is 01:06:04 Yeah, I walk right out the fire Yeah, you try to keep me down Try to put me underground But I'm only going higher I can hear you in my head In my bed when I'm dreaming You try to be my friend But you're blowing smoke.
Starting point is 01:06:27 Oh, and now I ain't scared of telling you where you can go. Because I know you're nothing but a lie. Jelly Roll, it's Lya, Clint, Meg and Dan, 25 to 9. Hey, ain't life wonderful? We've been giving you the chance to nominate someone in your life for the wonderful Wednesday. Thanks to New World. And that is what
Starting point is 01:06:51 Catherine, the mum of Abby, helped us do just last week. She did indeed. She thought her daughter deserved a bit of a nice morning. Apparently had a bit of a rough time and she's just a great girl. She really is quite a social butterfly. She's right into doing charcuterie boards, having a few laughs,
Starting point is 01:07:10 just being treated and being made to feel special. I was actually really, really shocked that we got chosen for this. She's had a pretty rough time over the past couple of years, health-wise. She really deserves it. Yeah, so it was up to the three of us to try to be as inconspicuous as possible, which isn't a word that generally people use with the three of us. Yeah, and I tell you what, we got there and obviously they thought I was the guy that should be in charge of directing everything because they gave me an earpiece and a walkie-talkie
Starting point is 01:07:39 and didn't give you guys anything. No, and then Meg, I tried to be a method actor, so I'm supposed to be having this picnic basket and all of a sudden my plans have changed and I'm going, hey guys, someone may as well enjoy this. And so I'm eating the grapes because, and I'm getting in trouble, but I'm like, if it was my picnic basket I would... You'd be eating the grapes. Exactly. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, I know, and they should
Starting point is 01:07:57 have just left us to it. Yeah, there was a makeup store where I was doing makeup trials on people and I don't know if she was meant to know it was me or not but instantly she said Meg, what are you working at Year World for? You're not going to miss Meg Manson. Oh my god.
Starting point is 01:08:13 What's a celebrity doing in Year World? Okay, so this is how it went down. Dan, I think, definitely drew the short straw. Guys, she's upset now. This is my time to shine. You're a bit spoiled, aren't you? I'm going to wipe this wire off my back. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:08:31 How cute is that? That's so cute. Have a wonderful picnic for New World and The Edge. Oh, my goodness. It's Dan. If Dan comes up singing, she will join in with him. Absolutely. She has no shame. So, Dan, it turns out she liked karaoke and she will join in with him. Absolutely. She has no shame.
Starting point is 01:08:45 So Dan, turns out she liked karaoke and she was a big fan of ABBA. And so Dan was the third chink in the chain. Yeah, and the problem is I don't know ABBA at all. It's like right down my list of favourites. So I had to quickly learn Dancing Queen by ABBA. I feel like everyone knows Dancing Queen though, Dan. Yeah, the star. Yeah, the beginning.
Starting point is 01:09:03 Dan was in charge of bringing it all home. Yeah, can I just say I was a bit off pitch. Here we go, Dan. Yeah, the start. Yeah, the beginning. Dan was in charge of bringing it all home. Yeah, can I just say I was a bit off pitch. Here we go, guys. You can dance. You can jack. Having the time of your life. Woo! See that girl.
Starting point is 01:09:20 Watch that sing. Singing the Dancing Queen. How are you? Good. When do we come in? Now. You're meant to be the singer. I know, and I want to just apologise to New World and my family
Starting point is 01:09:34 for some of that singing there. But apart from that, I think it all went down very, very well. Abby was so lovely. Yeah, she was. And her mum was awesome as well, so they got to enjoy their picnic. And then one last surprise when she was. And her mum was awesome as well, so they got to enjoy their picnic. And then one last surprise when she was hit with a giant billboard wishing her specifically a wonderful Wednesday.
Starting point is 01:09:50 She wasn't hit by the billboard. No, no. You made it sound like it was quite a lot. But she saw it. That's actually so cool. Oh, my gosh. Well, yeah, I'm on a billboard, baby. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:10:05 If you want to check out the video and see if we were as inconspicuous as we have made out, you can text the word wonderful to 3343 or head to the Air Gen Z on Insta. Yeah, so well-deserved. And we actually, New Zealand is such a small world. We were, they, Abby is a neutral friend of one of my best friends. Oh, that sounds like it was rigged.
Starting point is 01:10:25 Oh, okay. Oh, Abby's on with us. Abby, were some people, if they're calling foul, that Dan had jeeted up for you to win specifically? Not a chance. I'd never met Abby before in my life, but we were talking and they were like, you guys, Dad, you know my friend Michael.
Starting point is 01:10:44 You there, Abby? Oh, hello. Yes, good morning. There she is. No, it definitely was a surprise. It was not rigged, everybody. Definitely not. They don't listen to me even if I try to rig it, unfortunately.
Starting point is 01:11:00 That's true. You were a great winner, Abby. You were. Have you had a bit of a go on the karaoke machine since? I think my flatmates
Starting point is 01:11:10 are now sick of hearing my voice Yeah Yeah Fair enough That sort of karaoke Should have really signed it off with them

Starting point is 01:12:04 Peek-a-boo. Yeah, Miss Rachel has just done a post six hours ago. Hi. Hello. Peekaboo. Yeah, Miss Rachel has just done a post six hours ago saying we welcome sweet baby Susanna into the world. We're so in love. Sometimes timing isn't what you plan and the road to get there is bumpier than you expect. But when you hold your little ones, you know I'm meant to be your mama.
Starting point is 01:12:20 I was unable to carry this pregnancy due to medical reasons and we were blessed to have a surrogate which gave us our gift. That's what I mean of surprise of like we didn't know she was pregnant. Has she had kids before? She didn't say at first. I don't know. I thought she, I would assume she had kids because she feels like a mum
Starting point is 01:12:38 but it's not. She's like a TV, like a kids TV host. Dan, she's the one you think's hot, eh? Do you have a crush on her? Look, I put her on once for, because I've got a young one-year-old, and I was just, yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:53 And then George didn't care and walked off and you watched, like, a whole season. I may have left her on for a little bit. But, I mean, look, I think the thing I like about her
Starting point is 01:13:02 is she's just so lovely. You know, like, she just talks to you like like she really cares about you. Didn't she inspire you to want to do like a kids TV, like YouTube channel? What happened to that? You did like one ep. Well, it's actually harder than it seems. Yeah, funny to happen.
Starting point is 01:13:15 Yeah, you have to have a lot of energy. And I mean, if you've got the energy and the time to do it, she's so rich. So rich. And let's get into Ed Sheeran. So this man on TikTok, this guy on TikTok, he's called Zachary Swiftologist
Starting point is 01:13:31 or the Swiftologist and he does, I guess, reviews on silly breadies and people. There are some things that he said before that I really agree with.
Starting point is 01:13:38 You would agree on his thoughts about Chapel Rome, Dan. Okay. I'll just leave that with you. He talked about Ed Sheeran and he did a two minute TikTok video. This is one clip from it. I already just leave that with you. He talked about Ed Sheeran, and he did a two-minute TikTok video. This is one clip from it. I already know that this song is going to be terrorizing
Starting point is 01:13:52 the people of grocery stores worldwide. What is it with Ed Sheeran and grocery stores? They have, like, a blood pact that they will play his songs forever, and we will never be free of them. He also went on to say this about Ed Sheeran's latest track, As Is Him. Just from what I know about his writing process, the way that he writes songs, with the specific intention for them to be hits,
Starting point is 01:14:12 he is soulless. I think actually that AI was trained on Ed Sheeran's songs because they are not created by people. It's also the same thing every single time. Shivers, Bad Habits, Shape of You are all the same song and they are all so annoying. Ed Sheeran is literally
Starting point is 01:14:28 terrorising me. He's terrorising the music industry. We should be punishing him. So Ed Sheeran saw that video and just commented lol underneath it, which I thought was hilarious for the way that at least Zachary, you know when you have a celebrity, suddenly they change their tune normally when a celebrity
Starting point is 01:14:43 appears that they were talking about. Like, love you, love you, though. Oh, I'm just kidding. He's just joking. No, he replied saying, King, I'm so sorry, but we need to come up with something else. Oh, he's doubled down. Oh, at least he stands by his views. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:14:58 It just, what makes me crazy about this generation that we're in at the moment, I don't just mean Gen Z, I mean this life that we're living, how accessible it is to celebrities now. The fact that he was able to dis-Ed Sheeran, Ed Sheeran saw it and then be like, I stand by it.
Starting point is 01:15:12 Whereas back in the day with Michael Jackson, he was like this, you know, as a pop star, an entity that people would faint if they saw him. And now we can just be like,
Starting point is 01:15:20 fingers up, I think your music's great. Is this person on TikTok, this TikToker, they got a huge following? Let me check their following. Or is it just going viral? Oh, no, decent, 155,000.
Starting point is 01:15:30 Okay, but not like in the millions that... It's just that everyone started to see it and share it and obviously it gets the hype. Yeah, but his videos get between 220 to 1 million views. So he's definitely got a bit of a following when it comes to his video watches, maybe just not follows, but I just felt that fascinating
Starting point is 01:15:50 that we're in this stage that not only do celebrities, I like it a bit, it humbles everybody. We're on the same plane. Also, I don't understand what Ed Sheeran's doing, going around reading comments and reviews
Starting point is 01:16:01 about his new song. He doesn't have a smartphone, so how's he doing it as well? I think the phone's back now. Oh, he's got it back. Yeah. And also, this is why he doesn't need it.
Starting point is 01:16:10 He's taken it off. And also, not only is he reading them, but he's commenting on them to let people know he's reading them. I thought he'd be too busy. He's got kids and stuff.
Starting point is 01:16:17 I think celebrity's a little bit, and I love Ed. I always think of Ed, but I think he would think if he wrote LOL, people would get a bit ashamed because people, behind the keyboard,
Starting point is 01:16:25 you say things you wouldn't say to their face. But nope, Zachary said, I'll say it to your face too, King, do better. Oh man, I mean,
Starting point is 01:16:31 he's having the last laugh, isn't he? Ed Sheeran, he's got his own town. He literally owns a town. He's alright. Holy shit, you made it the whole way through.
