This is a podcast from Rover.
Ever wanted to eavesdrop on a group chat that should never see the light of day?
Congrats, you've found it.
This is the Clint Megendan Podcast.
Good morning everyone.
I have here Nelson, Hamilton, Dunedin, Parmy, Wellington.
You okay there?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, on here.
Just a light breeze today.
It's Clint Megendan yeah. Yeah, on here. Just a light breeze today. It's Clint
Magandad.
Kia ora, good morning. It is one to
six on your Thursday. It feels like a Friday.
Yay! Happy Easter.
I've already got my
Easter eggs. I've eaten mine. It's
disgusting. What a pig.
What a pig. I know, I know.
No, I will agree with him on this one, Clint.
What an absolute pig. I went to get
an Easter egg last night. I was like, oh, just
one little one. And I was like, it's the last
one, you pig woman.
You absolute slob.
What is wrong with you? It's not even Easter.
You've eaten your packet of eggs. I got one of the
bunnies and I ate its arse out last night.
Guy ate his bunny's arse last night.
It's the best part. A lot of people start with the ears,
but I go straight for the arse.
Thicker, thicker.
Good thick rump.
You don't want to get halfway through and then be too full for the arse.
You ought to be the hungriest there.
Very exciting day, though, because you haven't got your eggs.
I was going to say, Easter Bunny, on that,
can we please wipe your feet before you come inside?
Every year you put footprints all through my house.
Wow, he had dirty feet, didn't he?
Yeah, he does.
Yeah, Meg.
Meg's Easter Meg.
Dan needs an apology.
Do an apology to Body Effects.
It's very good.
Devonport chocolate.
Oh, look, it is very good.
I still stand by the fact it doesn't look much like you, Meg,
but I think it's the skin colour that needs it.
Okay, do you know what we should do this morning?
Oh, but I don't want people
to know it's a,
like a radio bit.
I would like to ask
random people in the office
who they think that is.
And I think you would get
a 10 out of 10 hit rate
that people go,
that's me, that's me.
Or it depends who's asking.
Good eyebrows, good eyebrows.
If I go up to people
and go, who's this?
They're going to go,
oh, that's me.
Yeah, I don't want to lead
the witness by sending out
an edge producer,
but I'd love at some point during the show going, who is this?
And I swear to God, you'll get a 100% hit rate.
Okay.
I think you'll get 70% hit.
Really?
Yeah.
What do you reckon, Meg?
I, yeah, I don't know if, I mean, there's definitely enough.
I think if you ask some people and they're like, they know that they know me
and there's probably, if Clint's asking, they'll go, well, it's Meg.
But if you went out to the street, oh, they probably wouldn't know me and there's probably, if Clint's asking, they'll go, well, it's Meg. But if you went out to the street,
oh, they probably wouldn't know who I am anyway.
Yeah, that's hard.
They'll be like, the edge.
What's that?
So in other words, no.
We just needed a yes or no answer.
Yeah, sorry about that.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Oh, my gosh.
Going into a horrific weekend.
We will do a bit of a weather watch
coming up at 7.30 this morning.
Get a bit of an update as to how bad it is.
Is the worst of it past though?
I thought that Auckland was done.
I was hoping so for the long weekend,
but then I heard there was like this Tam cyclone.
Tam, like short for Tammy?
Has Tam already been though?
Well, to be honest,
I think it was supposed to hit sort of the north,
upper North Island, Auckland area last night,
but I think the rest of the country maybe is going down.
But I mean, if it hit us last night, I didn't hear anything.
Sorry.
And even the Harbour Bridge this morning in Auckland,
everybody was saying that was going to be close.
I drove over that like it was just a normal one.
Was it down to 50?
It was down to 50 yesterday.
It was down to 50, but I...
Good for us, but I think Northland's been hit hard, Dan.
I'm careful what you say.
Yeah, that's sweet.
Sweet for my house.
Yeah, I'm heading north a little.
There's 24,000 without power right now. Oh, wow, like, sweet for my house. Yeah, I'm heading north of the Lowe's. There's 24,000
without power right now.
so there is people
without power.
Oh,
I still had it.
Oh,
well,
hey guys,
in the dark,
I don't know how
you're listening to this,
but maybe you've got
like a battery-powered radio.
Dan is sweet as.
Dan's good.
Dan's all good.
He doesn't even know
if it's cycling.
Yeah,
yeah,
yeah.
I'm willing to help,
though,
if you need it.
Well,
that's interesting,
because even
Purchase a Car
jumped on our work group chat and was like, guys, get. I'm willing to help, though, if you need it. Well, that's interesting, because even Producer Carl jumped on our work group chat
and was like, guys, get your candles ready
and work out where your batteries are.
And I was like, what?
What is he on about?
And then 24,000 people probably would have liked
that message from our Producer Carl.
Actually, I lie.
I lie, actually.
The barbecue cover blew off.
Did it?
Yeah.
All right.
Do you think that's the same,
the most powerful gust of wind
that I think has ever been recorded since 2017 was hit?
Well, I had it since 2016, that barbecue,
and it's never blown off.
Wow.
Hey, going into the long weekend,
hopefully, let us know, actually, flick us a text.
Did you take the Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday off?
Because we did.
Yeah.
Yeah, so then you get the 10 days between Anzac and Easter.
I think you'll find a lot of people have.
Like next week, I think it'll be a lot of quiet workplaces.
I forgot to tell you guys something that happened to me over the weekend.
My husband, you would have seen, did a half marathon in Christchurch.
What was his time out of interest?
I'd love to know how he went.
2.18, 2 hours 18.
Oh, that's good.
I was really proud of him with that.
He had chafing nipples and he went wheeze at one point.
During, while he was running, that's probably why he chafed.
Did he not tape up his nips?
Oh, Daniel, it has been a real discussion in my household.
I have messages saying, guy, you need to plaster your nipples.
Because, of course, we used to work with Dom who did marathons.
And I remember that was where I learned, you plaster your nipples.
100%.
And I was like, you need to do it.
So I made him
the night before
go to a chemist warehouse
buy them
and make sure
that I was like
okay he's going to do that
and then in the morning
he never put them on
yeah no that's key
and he got to the start line
and said oh I need to wee
do you know what
I've started doing
everywhere I drive now
I'm trying to work
how many k's it is
so I can see how far
a guy ran
because I mean I know
a lot of people
maybe do half marathons
or marathons and marathons.
But I was over the shore in Auckland
and then I was driving out west
and I put on my GPS and it said 11K.
And I was like, oh my God.
So Guy in the weekend
ran all the way to where I'm going,
turned around and then ran all the way back.
With chafing nipples.
Honestly, 20Ks is a hike.
It's really, really hard.
Especially, I've done it twice
and I've flown the middle part
where once you, the start you have this wind,
you know, like kind of, oh yeah, I'm fine.
You get to the middle and that's the hardest part
because you've still got half of it to go.
It's insane, right?
It's a mind game.
I was just so proud that one, he did it,
and two, he ran the whole thing.
And me being up in Auckland with my daughter Daisy,
I didn't know what I could do for him.
But his parents were down there with him too,
which I'm so grateful for.
So nice that he had support.
Oh no,
I saw him with a whole
bunch of girls as well.
Oh yeah,
he made a lot of girlfriends.
There's a lot of four hollies.
A lot of girl mates.
I saw him in a photo with.
Oh yes,
they've all been chatting.
And his mum,
mother-in-law told me
we're going out to dinner
at this place,
a pub in Christchurch.
I was like,
great,
that's what I'll do.
Did all the girls go?
No,
I think it was just the family.
I think you met all the girls after the drinks.
I rang the pub.
Yeah, I bet it's four hot girls there.
But not, are they?
Tell them to piss off, would you?
I'm his wife.
I rang them.
I'm not looking at you guys
because you're going to be so mad at me.
I rang them three times over the afternoon
to set up like a cheesecake
for Guy to be delivered to the table
like from Megan Daisy
saying congratulations, thank you
are you anything to help them stop thinking about those
for God's sake
so I rang them three times and they got the third call
I did feel that like yep we've got it
Megan I just wanted to make sure
oh no
yeah but this is why
Megan and I are over explainers
and organise things over and over and over because I can...
You just make sure...
I know, I already know where this is going.
Really?
What do you think happened?
I don't think he does.
Well, I was going to say, and then they didn't do it
and they never got it and you were like,
why did I waste all my time?
Oh, no, no.
No, no, no, no.
I think they were doing it.
Guy ate his dinner and left straight away.
Like, he paid.
He left so quickly. They were tall his dinner and left straight away. Like, he paid. He left so quickly.
They were tallied up and left,
and then they would have had an old brim beard.
He wanted to catch up with the girls.
And he never even got it.
He did, right?
He did catch up with the girls.
He's like, I've got four girls waiting for me in a hotel room.
I'll get the cheesecake.
What about the cheesecake?
You eat it.
I couldn't believe it.
He said, I'm on my way
to the airport.
I said,
what do you mean?
What do you mean
you're on the way
to the airport?
You must be walking
pretty slow.
You'd be full of cheesecake.
And I said,
did you leave right away?
And he was like,
yeah,
we're in a rush
so I just left
as soon as I'd finished
my last mouthful.
I like,
went out of there.
I was like,
oh,
for God's sake.
I had a cheesecake
for you.
I had a cheesecake
with like,
from Megan Daisy. Congratulations. Like, Robbins wanted it written. Oh, God. And sake. I had a cheesecake for you. I had a cheesecake with like, from Megan Daisy, congratulations.
Like, Robbins wanted it written.
Oh, God.
So you paid for it.
No, they wouldn't let me pay.
Thank God, because I was going to get mum to pay
and then I was going to pay her back
because that's why I kept ringing.
I was like, you sure I can't pay over the phone?
It was so annoying.
And then, lo and behold, he just left.
So, sorry, Pegasus Arms and Christchurch.
That would have been a real bitch from me.
How was his night with Starlet?
Yeah, Starlet, Starlet, Stacey, Laura.
Rainbow, Starlet, Candy.
The Clint, Meg and Dan Podcast.
Hey, we have an Easter Meg.
Only two of them.
It's actually a chocolate mould of Meg's face.
It's amazing.
Money can't buy these, eh?
No, they can't.
I can't even get my hands on one.
Yeah, Devonport Chocolate created it all
after they were given the mould from Body Effects.
If you would like to get one and you think you are...
Yeah, how are we giving these away?
...a Meg-spert, an expert when it comes to knowing things about our Meg,
we're going to put two superfans of our Meg head-to-head
to win Meg's head at seven.
Oh, that's good.
That means I'm going to end up taking one home
because we're going to get no callers.
So that's fabulous.
I was just going to say, does Meg have a super fan?
No, no, no.
Let alone two.
Two.
To go head-to-head.
Two.
If you listen to a lot of the show and you back yourself
knowing quite a bit about Meg and things that have happened
on the show, you could be winning Meg's head in
chocolate form. Can we have a bite, Evan?
Guys, this is going to be really, this is like me
launching a book and then nobody shows up. It's going to be
so embarrassing. Worst nightmare. Imagine that.
Meg, that is something
that Dan and I are prepared to have
happen. Clint, Meg and Dan
scandal. I'd be first in line
at the signing just so I could be like,
he's the only one who's going to sign me. And they'll go, Dan, just walk in.
They'll go, oh no, I'm not here to, I just want to watch.
I just want to watch. They're like, yeah,
no one's here. No, no, that's what I'm watching.
I'm watching no one turn up.
Alright, alright, what do we think?
Lorde has said
her single, it's called What Was That?
When is it out?
I've got, who was it? What was that?
So you guess each, and then we'll get into it.
So can we give a ballpark or do we give an exact date?
Whatever you want to do.
What were her words?
Knowing Lorde, she hasn't tailored it to New Zealand.
She's tailored it to worldwide because she doesn't give an F about us.
I reckon she's gone, it's like happening in the fall or something, you know, like.
Okay, in the fall.
And she's given us a season.
Like American season.
Yeah.
Okay.
What's the next season in America now?
It's going to be going into summer.
So we're doing autumn before winter, right?
Yeah, they're in spring.
So we're in autumn, they're in spring, yeah.
I reckon she's gone, it's coming out summer.
Even though she doesn't talk like that.
Clint.
No, the fact that Meg was quite cagey, I think
she's, I'd be so
stupid to talk about something that's coming out in
2026 in April.
Nah, she's doing it this year.
She's already started PR. It'll be
sometime this year, surely.
I think it'll be like
late this year. Like late this year.
I think October, November. So she's said
coming out late this year?
Yeah.
Those are her words?
Okay.
She's been very cagey.
Okay.
Because that could be any time from the after the year.
Lord has said.
Actually, drum roll.
Okay.
She's blowing it out as long as Lord is.
Her single, What Was That?
is out soon.
Okay.
That's off.
So Clint's probably closer because soon could be next year.
Soon, soon.
No, no, what is the window?
Could be tomorrow.
What's soon?
Okay, let's do a whip around.
What is soon?
Soon to me.
If someone goes, oh yeah, I'll give it to you soon.
By the end of the month.
That's what I was going to say.
So I say two weeks.
You've got two weeks.
Let's hope that's the case.
Okay, Patricia Carl, you keep saying that you want me to come around and help you probably
with some manly stuff like helping build your deck.
And I say, yeah, I'll be around soon.
Yeah.
If you're saying you're going to help me build a deck, I'd be like, that's today soon.
Okay, today.
It depends on the thing.
If you said you were coming around to mine soon,
I'd go, oh, he's here in an hour.
Yeah.
Or if you go, I'm releasing something soon,
that could be any time between now and six months away.
Oh, no, six months is not soon.
Yeah, surely two weeks.
Surely.
When does soon become ages?
Yeah, if you go, I'm going on a holiday soon,
I would expect three months.
Imagine if she'd gone. It's coming
out ages away though.
Don't worry. I'd sort of stop thinking about it.
I think soon-ish feels
like four months. Soon-ish is in the middle.
Three, four months.
Okay, so soon...
Let's take some calls on this.
Really? Okay. I'm locking in
soon as within two weeks. I say within the end of the
month. That's what I said first. I literally said within the end of the month. Clint, you just, that's what I said first.
I literally said within the end of the month
if you'll take it.
So Meg and I agree, we've got two for two weeks.
Right, yeah.
What do you think is soon?
I know you're right, Dan,
and it probably depends on what the thing is,
but let's say if I go, ooh, I'm releasing music soon.
Okay.
That's this example.
I'm going to stop you there, Clint.
I'm going to say by the end of the month.
Okay.
Shut up!
That's a good idea.
That's a nice place to start, Dan.
Yeah, okay.
Producer Neats, you're a musician.
If you had new music and you were like,
oh, we're going to release it soon,
what is the maximum window that you would...
So we are releasing new music soon,
within the next three or four months, I'd imagine.
Oh, for Pete's sake!
You've got to do the build-up.
If you don't do the build-up, you won't get streams.
That is soon-ish.
Especially soon-ish.
Okay, we're releasing it soon-ish.
Ah, as neeps.
Working with Lorde.
Oh!
In which case...
Okay, what is the expectation
if someone says they're dropping music soon?
I agree.
Let's see if we can kind of work out exactly,
if we put our heads together,
when she drops and see how close we are
to when it actually comes out.
Well, Kent's just said
he's releasing a poop soon.
I think that's within the next hour.
Hopefully that's not
by the end of the month either.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Let's go.
And getting to know everyone
that listens to our show
nice and early,
we appreciate those
that tune in
and choose us first
between six and seven.
I can't get, get, get
to know, know, know
you better, better, baby. I want to get to know you. Tune in and choose us first between six and seven.
Get to know Dave.
Oh, my gosh.
We managed to get Dave.
He's the truck driver.
He drives a Hilux when he's on the truck.
He's single, Aquarius.
He's got a cat called Chico that he lives with,
and he does log trucking.
Oh, good morning, Dave.
A proper truck driver.
Morning, Dave.
Morning, mate. Now, let me guess just quickly before proper truck driver. Morning, Dave. Morning, mate.
Now, let me guess just quickly before we go on.
He drives a Hilux.
Let me guess what sort of truck he's in.
I'm going to go, it's a logging truck,
so you're going to have to have a big engine.
I'm going to go, it's either a Scania or a Kenworth.
It's a Kenworth.
Oh, yes, come on. Well done, Dave.
Is this the first time we've ever spoken to you,
your first time caller? Yes, I am. Yeah, come on. Well done, Dave. Is this the first time we've ever spoken to you, your first time caller?
Yes, I am.
Yeah, it is.
For the first time in forever.
Hello, stranger.
For the first time.
Playing like Frozen Elsa to Dave, who's a logging truck driver.
Yes.
I don't have a Harley, but I do have a 650 sports bike.
I don't know what that means, but it sounds exactly...
You could be one of the coolest listeners we've ever spoken to.
And you'd like me.
That's great.
That's not what I expected.
Nice.
I wouldn't expect a long driver to think...
You're always so nice, though.
You're always so nice, Meg.
So who couldn't like you?
Oh, thanks, Dave.
I appreciate that.
Dan wouldn't say that about me.
No, you'd be in the same studio with her.
Then you'll find out.
All right, what should we ask about Dave?
Okay, he's never called the edge before.
Okay, I've got an idea.
Oh, yeah?
What is his, because it sounds like he's like a manly man,
drives bikes and logging trucks and stuff.
What is his guilty music pleasure?
Like the artist where he's turning it up loud in the truck,
but then when he pulls up to the side,
he quickly winds up the windows and turns it down.
Okay.
Because it's a guilty pleasure musical.
Oh, I like that.
Okay, so you don't answer yet, Dave.
Oh, wait, wait, don't answer yet, Dave,
because we're going to answer for you.
We'll guess, and you have to guess who,
or you have to say who's the closest.
Okay, if he thinks I'm cool,
then maybe he's similar to my husband,
and my husband's guilty pleasure is Ariana Grande, Dangerous Woman.
Okay.
So that's my Batman.
Oh, you like little Ariana Grande?
Little Ariana.
Little old school Ari.
Okay, so Meg's gone.
Blastiness in the long drive.
I'm going to go with something pretty old school.
I'm also going with female.
I'm going to go with something pretty old school. I'm also going in female.
I'm going to go with sheer.
And he's just cranking
this on the long truck.
I tell you what, Dave.
If you like this,
you and I need to hang out.
I?
You and you?
Old school, Dan.
Yeah, I'm going to go
sort of medium school.
And I think that
I'm similar lines to Clint,
but I think Dave loves a power ballad,
and he loves a bit of Celine Dion, The Power of Love.
Okay.
Yeah, but anything sort of Celine Dion
that's a really good driving song.
He's got the logs on the back.
He's just driving along.
Okay, Dan and I are sitting in a similar space,
so I feel like me could get the point here,
because anything modern will win.
Listen to this, Dave. You're driving down the road.
Stay high. One log on the back.
You are my friend.
Sorry, no.
Oh, okay.
He dands out instantly so it's between Cher
and Ariana Grande. Dave, guilty pleasure.
Bye. Y'all have to tie it.
Tie?
It's a tie.
Nobody's ever said a tie. No, nobody's ever told us weall have to tie it. Tie? It's a tie. Nobody's ever said a tie.
No, nobody's ever told us we could have a tie before.
Okay, what is actually a guilty pleasure that you would play in the truck
that most people wouldn't know about?
So, all right, I've got my favourite one would be, let me think of it,
it's Cowboy Casanova.
Oh.
Cowboy Casanova.
Is that Chapel?
No.
No.
No, that's, no, it's.
Carrie Underwood.
Ooh.
Yes, that's it.
Okay, then Country.
So who's more Country?
I would say it's more modern, which I'd sort of lean towards me.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, Dave already said it was a draw.
Yeah.
Dave, thank you so much for playing.
We're going to send you out a voucher to Zed.
No, that was fun.
Yeah, thank you, man.
Appreciate you two listening to us.
He's like, actually, you guys are my guilty pleasure.
I don't tell anyone I listen to you guys.
When I opened the window, I switched over to The Rock.
Yeah.
If you're craving both a cheeseburger and a pie,
don't you ever want anyone else,
easy as, thanks to Zedd's new cheeseburger pie.
Only $6.90.
We'll send you a voucher.
You can smash a few of those if you like, Dave.
I mean, that song from Cher,
you'd be pretty un-no not to like that.
Like, if you could play this,
not many people wouldn't like that song.
Wouldn't tap a little foot.
Oh, God, yeah.
What's not to like?
And the Kenworth?
Clint, Megan, Dan.
Stinky boot.
Normally we do this on Friday, but being a short week and us away tomorrow,
we thought it'd be nice to look back on the short week that has been
with hopefully the best bits, at least according to our producer, Neeps.
We ready, team?
Yeah, love this.
All right, let's find out who comes out on top and who doesn't.
The Producer's Diary. Morena, a short
week in another Producer Diaries with
Producer Neep here, or as Meg likes to call me
Prusneeper. That's Prusneeper.
Absolutely perfect.
Let's get into it. It's a short week and there's
no one more excited for Easter than our very
own Meg Mantle. I love hot crisp buns.
I love hot crisp buns. I love hot crisp buns.
In fact, Meg loves Easter so much, we decided
to make her some Easter Megs.
However, we did have our concerns about how
these were being made. What kind of chocolate would you like, Meg?
I think I like a
dark... Oh, not too dark if we're doing
just the face. Oh yeah, I think you should go
probably white chocolate.
I mean, it depends. I don't know how much
chocolate they've got, that's all.
What do you mean?
I'm just saying, if they want to do the whole body,
then they're going to have to have more chocolate, aren't they?
Brilliant save, Dan.
While the team are off enjoying their Easter break,
they're going to be practising hard for the brand new Edge Breakfast band.
We caught up with Mitch James this week
to chat about his last ever show of his music career,
and I think he might regret saying this to us.
I haven't booked an opener. just saying just saying you know if we really want to make me
look good i'm i'm pretty down right quick round the room clint give us a guitar solo
meg on the drums
and an original song from Dan as well.
Sing it with me now. This week on the show, we also chatted about how to get free stuff. And Jackie had a very interesting way of getting a free haircut.
But anyway, it got really out of hand.
The manager came, the cops got called, and we sorted it all out.
As I was leaving, I turned around and said to the guy,
you're going to die, and they fucking arrested me.
You're going to die?
Okay.
Yeah.
Wow.
So I got arrested for threatening to kill.
Wow.
Well, I mean, to be fair, Jackie, you did say you're going to die.
Well, I don't know
how that could be interpreted differently.
I don't want to go up against you, Jackie,
if I'm being honest.
Probably won't be trying
that technique anytime soon.
Last week, I said we hit
an all-new low on the show
when Dad said this.
Why don't we just notch this one up
as a fail?
We'll move on
and let's promise
that we'll be better after this.
Hard to be worse.
Well, it turns out we lied.
We can go lower.
The thing I've discovered this morning is
this has been the most pointless piece of shit thing we've ever done in my life.
And we almost killed Dan too.
Why has someone not put me in the recovery position?
I could have literally been knocked out there.
No one even came to check me.
You just wanted a bit of mouth-to-mouth action with your hot new producer, didn't you, Dan?
And that is your producer diaries for this week.
Happy Easter.
Don't eat too much chocolate,
unless it's your Easter Meg.
I wish I could have one of those.
Thank you, producer Nath.
Very well done.
Speaking of the Easter Meg,
we're actually going to give that away next.
First song out of seven.
So if you are a Meg-spert
and you think you know more about our Megs than most,
we'll put you head to head with someone else
and the winner will win Meg's head created in chocolate.
Don't eat it all at once, though.
No, it's quite decadent, isn't it?
Rich.
Beautiful looking.
Come on.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
We have only two Easter Megs, Meg's face,
created in chocolate.
Also, I think your cleavage.
I think it's a little bit of cleave.
Does it touch your cleave?
Yeah.
Does it touch your cleave in there?
Yeah.
It doesn't do it justice, in my opinion, Meg.
I think they should have...
My whole face or the cleavage?
Well, the cleavage.
Yeah.
I think your face is beautiful.
Well, it's tasteful.
They're not going to do the whole...
You know, it's not an R-rated thing.
It's not an erotic egg.
Oh, isn't it okay?
They've done it well.
Yeah.
They've done it well.
Body effects, thank you so much for making the mould.
Off Meg's photos, by the way.
We didn't actually get to use Meg's face at all.
And then Devonport Chocolate made two of them.
You can win one right now if you are a Meg-spert.
It almost looks too good to eat.
She's nailed my eyebrows.
Yeah.
Okay.
We are going to be introduced to a couple of Mega Meg fans.
Okay.
Mega Meg fans. One. Mega Meg fans.
One of them's Peter.
Morning, Peter.
Hey, Pete.
Good morning, guys.
How's it going?
Good.
So you're a self-confessed Mega Meg fan?
Yep, I am.
I love Meg.
Partner loves Meg.
Long-time listener.
I don't know about my attention to detail,
but I'm going to give it a red hot.
Okay.
Good on you, Peter.
Okay, well, Peter has said he's pretty good with his Megology.
So let's see how that goes up
against Amber this morning.
Alright, Amber's up next.
Hey, Amber. Hi, how
are you guys? Good. Now, Amber, it says here that you've
listened to every podcast and OnlyFans.
You think you know Meg better than she knows herself.
That is a big call.
Yeah, I've listened since I was
super young, just when Meg came on, I've listened since I was super young,
just when Meg came on,
so I'm hoping I can remember everything.
Okay.
We can do this then.
It's Amber versus Peter.
How is this going to go, boys,
in the way of like... One for one.
You're going to get three questions each.
Whoever gets the most questions out of three wins.
If it is a tiebreaker,
we'll go to one final question
where the fastest to answer wins.
Here we go.
Okay, we'll start with Pete.
In which popular segment... popular inverted commas, sad to me,
did Meg's alien noise...
Come from?
Which popular segment?
I would say it is popular.
It's a tricky one.
What was the segment we do weekly where Meg made that noise?
Spoken at this recently.
It's a hard question to start with.
The boys are involved in this segment too.
I don't know.
I can't remember.
No, that was, we needed men writing women
or men writing erotic fiction for women.
Okay.
Okay.
Not off to a good start.
Okay, let's go over to Amber.
Amber, which Australian celebrity made Meg bark like a dog after a steamy photo shoot?
Was it Robert Irwin?
It was.
Yes, it was.
Correct.
That was an easy guess in the way that anybody could have.
Okay.
One point to Amber, zero to Peter.
Okay.
Right, okay.
Peter.
If you've been listening the last couple of days,
this should be a sitter for you.
Peter, what instrument is Meg playing in our band that has yet to be named?
Drum.
Yes!
Well done.
He's on the board, good.
He's tied it up.
Come on.
Amber.
This song...
Doing a Meg.
Doing a Meg. References Meg. Doing a Meg.
References Meg.
Doing a Meg.
What is doing a Meg?
Oh, and Amber, I want the Meg answer, not the boys' answer.
Ooh.
I don't know the Meg answer.
I do know.
Yes?
I do know that it's when you pooed the bed.
Oh, no, it's pooed the bed.
Doing a Meg.
That is my answer.
Doing a Meg. I just don't like it when it's just like when you just, it's poo the bed. Doing a mag. That is my answer. Doing a mag.
I just don't like it when it's just like when you just poo yourself.
Doing a mag, doing a mag, doing a mag.
Pooing the bed, pooing the bed, pooing the bed.
Doing a mag, pooing the bed, doing a mag, pooing the bed.
Do you know what?
We've played that for maybe five years now.
And it never gets old.
Next question.
Okay, now here's where we're at.
Unbelievable.
This is question three for you, Peter.
If you don't get this right,
then you can't actually catch Amber,
who's already on two points.
So you need this to put it back on her.
It's a must win.
Okay, no pressure.
Okay.
What was the other question we discussed over here?
Oh, Clint Smith.
That's right.
Okay.
When Meg went on the Taylor Swift Errors Tour,
she had what discovered in her suitcase the day that she was leaving?
Come on, Pete.
Oh, I didn't know this.
Can I go through her bag and found some items and Meg was horrified. And I didn't pack them. Somebody I? Anne went through her bag and found some items, and Meg was horrified.
And I didn't pack them.
Somebody else did.
There was three of them.
I'd argue you only need to take one on a trip.
And I didn't pack them.
Somebody else did, thinking they were very funny.
Come on.
Come on, Peter.
Okay, Pete.
You can do this.
To stay in the game, otherwise Amber wins the Easter Meg.
I need an answer in three, two, one.
No, I'm blanking out.
Damn.
Amber, do you know?
What?
She's got three.
I think I know, but I'm scared to say it on the radio if that's not what it is.
That's the answer.
That's probably it.
What?
She's got three.
No.
Meg.
My husband.
My husband.
She's got an SP2.
No!
Oh, my God, I can't believe I just touched them.
I pulled them out for the cameras.
My husband's a dead man.
Yeah.
He packed three adult toys in the suitcase.
Well, commiserations for Pete and a congratulations for Amber.
You can't catch her from there.
She wins only one of two
Easter Megs ever created.
Thank you guys, I'm stoked.
Well done, Amber.
And commiserations, Pete.
I'll tell you what I can do, Pete.
For playing, I'm going to send you
a double pass to our must-see movie
called Sinners out in cinemas today.
Probably better, Peter.
Yes.
Legend, thank you.
Well done, Amber.
Thanks, Peter.
You're very welcome.
That was one of my favourite days,
when we went through your bag. Really?
What a joy.
Again, why are we playing this again?
I have done
other things than had six toys
in a suitcase and shit a bed.
That's my legacy, is it?
Hopefully not.
What else have you done? Oh, wait a second.
Well, if you can't think of anything, we can.
I'll think of something, I'll think of something.
We can't.
We'll do that next, maybe.
Give her songs, time to just maybe guess.
I'll think of something.
We want to do a bit of a brag bag long weekend edition.
We used to do this a lot,
and then it kind of got rested for a wee bit.
We thought it'd be fun to bring back,
especially considering a lot of people
are going to be taking those three days off
in between Easter and Anzac.
So for some people,
it's like a 10-day holiday
for the price of three.
I also think as New Zealanders,
we don't brag about our stuff enough.
No, we don't.
That's how this segment started originally.
It's the New Zealand way, isn't it,
to kind of just talk yourself down
and other people.
But I think it's a good chance
to just talk positively
about yourself.
Yeah.
What are you guys doing then
for the long weekend,
brag bag edition?
I was going to go mountain biking.
Again.
I am a mountain biker.
There's a cyclone.
I know,
and that's why
it's kind of put a dampener on it.
The track's really empty
on like cyclone days.
There is a track there,
so there's a place,
because I'm going down to Rotorua on the weekend,
and I was going to take my bike down there
because there's a place called Redwoods in there,
which is amazing.
If you ever, like, there's tracks for all types of, you know, people,
whether you're a beginner or you're an expert.
Is that where they have the bridge and all the lights and stuff
all up in the trees?
That's another part of it, yeah.
You can do, like, a tree walk. And you all up in the trees? That's another part of it, yeah. You can do like a tree walk.
And you did hear me before saying that there's the part of the highway to Rotorua is closed because of a tree.
But that's because of a tree's fallen down.
I'd argue if they haven't got that fixed by the end of tomorrow,
because that's when I'm heading down, something's wrong.
They haven't removed the tree from the road.
So yeah, that's what I'm doing.
I've got my birthday coming up, so I thought I'd spend a long weekend with family, so I
put my mum and dad's place in Marsden Cove, just across from Roakaka.
So you're 21st, eh?
27.
You are.
Yeah.
And so we were going to do some lawn bowls on the Saturday, and I was looking forward
to doing some day drinking and letting mum and dad just kind of look after the kids.
Lawn bowls? You're definitely not 27 then.
And then, no, I feel like you have to be in your 20s or in your 70s
if you're doing lawn bowls.
Yeah, that's fair.
But, yeah, the weather may also put a dampener on that,
but I was looking forward to doing a bit of the family vibe and, you know,
smashing a few tins in the middle of the day.
Yeah.
I am leaning into the weather, staying home.
And I'm just going to do,
I think we're just going to be a big weekend of me,
my husband and my daughter, like, baking and eating
and snuggling on the couch and doing colouring competitions.
And drumming, I hope.
Oh, God, Dan, I will be drumming.
Yes, it's all set up in my bedroom.
It's absolutely insane walking into my bedroom
and seeing a drum set up.
I don't know.
What is going on?
We've started a band, the three of us.
Because we're always like, I think a lot of friend groups kind of go,
I wonder if we could start a band.
Yeah, but they never actually try and do it.
We're trying to be that friend group to see if things can happen like that.
And we can kind of be like, we're your canary down the mine.
If we can do it, anyone can.
Yeah, because if you're always like, man, I'd love to be in a band,
then you realise
what can and can't be achieved
in six weeks
with three people
that don't have any musical talent.
What about producers?
Is it actually worth going
to any of the three of you?
You guys doing anything fun
for the long weekend?
Oh yeah,
I was going to,
meant to be racing
my new remote control boat,
but it's a bit cyclony out there,
so I'm not,
I'll have to change my plan.
We're going really fast.
Yeah,
get a new PB on the lake.
Yeah.
Producer Neats?
Four-day bender.
Whee!
A difference.
You flaked for five lads.
Yeah.
And we've got Bella.
I am going to Taupo for a girls' weekend.
Lovely.
Is it a celebration in particular,
or just the girls' one?
Birthday.
Is it yours?
No.
No, friends.
Okay, good.
When is your birthday?
25th of September.
Don't forget it.
Oh, okay.
We'll forget that.
It's miles away.
I won't forget that, actually.
It's the day after my wife.
Okay.
Taupo's a lovely place.
I always love going there for a little bit of a holiday.
Yeah.
Okay, what are your long weekend plans that you're fizzing at the bunghole about?
Clint.
Clint, that's disgusting.
Oh, it's a saying.
It's a saying that I think should have been left in the 2000s.
Yeah, I don't think anyone's said that for at least five years.
Yeah.
Well, you're not fizzing at the bunghole because you're staying home.
Yeah, I'm definitely not fizzing at the bunghole.
I'm excited, but there's no fizzing down my bunghole.
Yeah, actually, I would get that checked if you're fizzing at the bunghole
staying home for the long weekend.
That's quite a dormant bunghole.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Who's fizzing at the bunghole for home for the long weekend? That's quite a dormant bunghole. Clint, Meg and Dan. Who's fizzing at the bunghole for the long weekend?
Stop saying it.
If you have nothing to do,
I can tell you my family tradition
that I obviously am not doing now,
but I would be doing
if I was in Wellington
with my family
and not pregnant.
Mum used to do an Easter egg hunt
for the adults,
but we would find
limoncello shots around
the yard and the house.
And so, yeah, by the end of, by about 12, you'd be well on your way. we would find limoncello shots around the yard and the house.
And so, yeah, by about 12, you'd be well on your way.
Right.
And how old were you when this was happening?
Oh, it's lower heart about 12.
I'm kidding.
Obviously about 18.
Maybe 17.
No, 18 would have been.
And, yeah, it was always a hell of a lot of fun because everyone got involved.
Limoncello.
I can't stand it. Too sour for me. Doesn't it sound so nice? Yeah, it was always a hell of a lot of fun because everyone got involved. Limoncello, I can't stand it.
Too sour for me.
Doesn't it sound so nice?
Yeah, it does sound nice.
A lot of checks coming through for Brag Bag,
people doing stuff this weekend.
We missed the Big Bang a couple of weeks ago,
so we're doing long distance,
but my partner is coming up
and we're celebrating the Big Bang this weekend.
Oh, wow.
Get in.
Can't wait.
And then out.
And then in.
Someone else has texted through saying,
I'm training for my PPR,
which I think is private pilot's license.
And on Saturday, I'm doing my first solo flight.
Oh my God.
Or maybe not in this weather.
Yeah.
Or this weekend for a solo.
Pump the brakes on that one.
Maybe a little rain check.
Yeah.
Nice crosswind landing.
Yeah.
And this person, I'm adopted.
And I'm meeting my biological mum this weekend
for the first time.
She's flying from Scotland as we speak.
Oh, that's so cool.
Wow.
Oh, gosh, that's so exciting and so nerve-wracking.
Oh, my God, yeah.
What do you do?
Like, where do you meet?
What do you do?
How do you act?
Bowling?
You'd be expecting so much.
Bowling?
Probably not bowling, but you need an activity,
so you're not just sitting there,
and then you go, hey, so you adopted me out.
So what was the deal with that?
And they go,
yeah, sorry, I'll answer that.
It's my turn now.
Yeah, you just drop in
with a bombshell question
being like,
like whatever it may be
and then you go and walk up
and bowl so you give mum
some, you know, chance.
I would say don't listen to Clint.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't go straight in
with why do you adopt me out.
I think that's quite confronting
to start off with.
I mean, I suppose
if you're adopted,
if you're a glass half full person,
you're actually kind of,
you're quite blessed because you've got two families.
If your biological family you get to meet later are awesome,
you've got two.
That is true.
Your adopted family and your biological one.
I'd love to chat to you about it
because I'd be so nervous.
Because you're sort of,
like that's a big person in your life
that you're meeting for the first time.
You met a half sister once.
No, I've never met.
What?
We've never met.
Yeah.
Oh, did she just text you asking for tickets to a concert and then that was it?
Yeah.
Well, no, there was a little bit of other chat around it.
Liv Tyler, just this morning, you know Liv Tyler, the actress from Lord of the Rings?
She was the other one.
She has opened up about how she found out that Stephen Tyler,
lead singer of Aerosmith, was her dad.
She was a pre-teens for about 11 or 12 and her mum
took her to her Aerosmith concert and then
Really? It's old daddy-o up there.
There's your dad up there.
We'll take Zara from Tauranga.
Morning babe, what are you up to this long weekend?
Hi, I'm
supposed to be going on a three hour
road trip today to go see my
grandparents with my cousins but
I don't know if we're going now
because of the weather.
Oh, but you know what?
Your grandparents
won't be around forever
so you've got to take
these opportunities to go out.
Yeah, your grandparents
fought in the war and stuff
and you're not sure
if you can drive
because it's a bit windy?
Come on, your grandparents
think you're a little soft.
They're the ones
that are actually saying
not to come
if the weather's too bad.
Yeah, well you do
what you think's safe.
Maybe they're the ones that texted about the Big Bang earlier.
And they were, I don't know, and they're like,
yeah, not this weekend, guys.
Yeah, that was from a Margaret and Joe.
Are they your grandparents' names?
No, that's not, no.
What are your grandparents' names?
Yeah, okay.
We'll leave it on that.
Yeah, yeah. Well, thanks, Sarah. You have a bloody good weekend. Exc not, no. What are you agreeing? Oh, yeah, yeah, okay. No, we'll leave that. Just as well. We'll leave it on that. Yeah, yeah.
Thank you.
Oh, thanks, Sarah.
You have a bloody good weekend.
Exciting, Paul.
He's just reminded me.
Wellington is Armageddon this weekend.
Taking the four and one-year-old for a wander
in a little shop at the stores.
The best.
I love Armageddon.
And weather like this, though, it's going to be crazy.
Armageddon is always, always, always jam-packed,
let alone in wet weather.
I can't even imagine it.
It's nerd heaven, eh?
Yeah, it's nerd heaven.
It is nerd heaven.
Is that where you can swap Pokemon cards and stuff?
We can do it at Magic the Gathering cards.
Oh, my goodness.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Oh, my gosh.
And our producer, Nipia, who's been on the show maybe a couple of months now, bro?
Yeah, two or so months.
I've been loving it.
He's in our studio.
He's got an idea for the show, and we were like, sure, bro.
Yeah.
Will he step up to the plate and have a swing. Absolutely.
So we had Stan Walker in yesterday
and he spoke about his brand new
song, Homage to New Zealand Music Awards
and the story of the song is amazing.
The journey of how Maori became
the Maori we are today essentially
with Hannah Rafferty who's
the politician I believe.
Clint is also Maori and... politician, I believe. Clint is also Māori.
Yeah, I mean, down my mum's side,
I think I had just enough Māori
to apply for a Māori Pacific Island scholarship
at university.
But it's probably something that
in my younger years,
we didn't embrace as much.
But I think having a lot of friends
who are Māori now,
I feel like...
More connected, eh?
Yeah.
And I think your white friends go, oh, you're not Māori, whereas your Mā like... More connected, eh? Yeah, and it's like, and I think your white friends go,
oh, you're not Māori, whereas your Māori friends are like,
it doesn't matter if you're like half Māori or one-thirty second,
you've got Māori in you.
That's the way that I think of that.
And if you see yourself as Māori and if you practice being Māori,
then, you know?
And I think Stan Walker saw that as well yesterday.
Yeah, 100%.
Yeah, I remember asking, I was like,
how do you know that it's going
to happen per se
with a hongi?
And Clint had
the perfect explanation.
He just said,
it's all in the eyes,
which he's dead right about.
Yeah, because we hongied
when he left
and then you, Meg,
and Dan
had this reaction.
I just didn't know
that you would
do a hongi
with sandwiches.
Really, obviously, cool, but I was just kind of confused.
Clint just went in straight for a hongi and nailed it.
I must say, it was a great hongi.
And so this has inspired something in me, in the hongi eyes, if you will.
Ready to play?
Yeah, play it.
Hongi eyes
Stan looked at me
and I knew it was right
with those
Hongi eyes
You can just see
it's in their eyes.
How do you know?
Yeah, that it's happening.
It's a bit more of like
an intense look into their eyes
and they look at you
and you go,
oh, we're going to Hongi here.
Hongi eyes.
Oh, wow.
Is this a thing?
Yep.
Is it?
100%. Really?
100%.
That's so good.
So someone, very well voiced.
So you can just look at someone and you know, like, I wouldn't be able to do it.
I think Dan would go in for a kiss.
I don't know how to read those kind of eyes.
That's always the argument when I play when I go home as well.
Is my auntie going for a kiss or is she going for a hongi?
Oh, yeah.
You never know with auntie.
Exactly.
And it's 50-50 and it's all in the eyes.
You've got to make direct eye contact and you know if those are hongi eyes.
How different are her hongi eyes to her kissing eyes?
That's my question.
Oh, not so different.
Yeah, it's sad.
I don't think I'm going to be able to hear that song like the same anymore.
One more time?
Yeah, one more time.
Great voice, by the way.
Very, very good.
Very, very good.
The first thing to bring to the show, Producer Nipia.
I thought I had to get in on the parodies as well.
Do you want to try it, Meg?
Yeah, Meg, have a try.
Go.
Singing it?
No, I'm not singing it.
Do you want to do a Hongie?
I've done Hongies before.
But has she done Hongie eyes?
Yeah, that's the question.
I'm just going to go in there, Producer Nips.
Is it in the eyes?
Well, the removing of the hat is also a very good giveaway. That's another dead giveaway.
If someone's wearing a hat and they take it off,
they're going for more than just a check.
I think your husband Guy would say those would be your bedroom eyes.
I've got to really clear that up before I have quite a similar look.
Supposedly the weather around the country over the long weekend
is meant to be awful.
We're going to find out if that is true or not
with Phil Duncan from weatherwatch.co.nz.
He's obsessed with weather and he is the guy that all of his friends,
I imagine, text being like,
should we go out on the boat for a fish tomorrow
or is it not looking good?
Morning, Phil.
Good morning.
They're so weird.
That's literally what's happening to me for Saturday.
Yeah.
Weekends like this must be like your Super Bowl.
You love weekends like this.
Yeah, I mean, it's exciting.
I mean, you sort of do get excited because you don't see these storms very often.
But on the other hand, you sort of realise it's tempered down by realising that people's plans are cancelled
and the roads are cancelled and they'll blame you if you tell them not to go away.
So it's kind of like, it's a bit of two worlds.
It's funny, eh,
with weather people.
I've never had my mum
be so opinionated
about weather people
who are like,
they always get it wrong.
They always get it wrong.
But when you guys get it right,
nobody goes,
oh, get on those weather people.
Yeah, and I mean,
are you,
do you have a partner?
Are you married, Phil?
Because I imagine like
dating's hard when they ask you what you do
and you start bringing up the weather,
which isn't a great conversation starter typically.
I'm divorced, so does that tell you anything?
Oh, not looking good, Phil.
Part of that I blame on a storm when we were camping
and I insisted, no, no, it'll be nothing,
and then it rained for like five days. And that was the end of it.
You're supposed to know, Phil!
Yeah, not good, not good.
So what's it looking like for this weekend?
Because we know it's been pretty crappy so far over the last couple of days.
Is that set to continue into the weekend for most of the country?
It is here and there.
Not for everybody.
But we've got this really windy weather.
It's what we call a squash zone.
It's in between the halfway mark between a big storm
and a big area of high pressure,
which is over the South Island and the Chatham Islands.
And so that's why you've got these windy nor'easters
in Northland and Auckland, and it just won't stop.
Got another day of that to go through today
before it moves further down the North Island and falls apart.
And then you've got the rain.
The rain's moving down today.
It's not looking as bad to me as it was yesterday for some places.
That's good news. So there's some good news. It's not looking as bad to me as it was yesterday for some places. That's good news.
So there's some good news.
But it's messy.
And so as we go through the next few days,
the storm that's come down out in the Tasman Sea now,
that kind of sits there for a few days.
It's at its strongest today,
and then it gradually falls apart over the next four or five days.
But the setup we've got is basically not changing
as far as the high pressure zone
out to the east and the big low to the west and New Zealand stuck in the middle. And it's
like that for the whole weekend, even though the weather is slowly sort of falling apart
for most places over the next few days.
Okay, where would you say, Philip, is the best place to be over the long weekend and
where's the worst place to be weather-wise?
I've got two best places.
You could have a few,
but one of them
would probably be
Hawke's Bay
or at least sort of
Hawke's Bay,
Manawatu area.
That's a little bit windy today.
And the other one
would probably be
the lower South Island,
a place like South London,
a central Otago.
Not necessarily sunny,
but not as windy
and not as wet.
Okay, where do you
definitely not want to be over the long weekend?
Yeah, that's good.
Well, I would say at this stage,
it looks as though parts of Bay of Plenty East Cape area
could be very exposed to some of the heaviest rain.
Coromandel Peninsula's got heavy rain coming through today,
so does Northland, the Northland.
But that rain is hopefully going to kind of break up a bit more.
But Coromandel Peninsula, the eastern side of Northland,
but to me, Bay of Plenty, East Cape,
probably the main sort of area that's likely to see prolonged rain
or the rain actually coming back again
as we get sort of at the end of the long weekend,
might return again.
So if you're in Bay of Plenty, especially the eastern side,
keep up to date with what's going on.
When does the sun come back out for most of us?
If I'm doing an outdoor Easter egg hunt one day,
what day should I do it?
How long do we have to just hold on for?
The sun should be,
I think the sun will come out during Saturday, Sunday,
so some areas.
There might be some showers.
Could be some heavy with thunder around as well this weekend.
Could be, maybe.
Philip, it's time to sign with your ex-wife here.
Yeah, no, no, no.
I give a lot of politicians answers, by the way.
Yeah.
We say, oh, it's not too bad,
but watch out for the big thunderstorms.
I think weather's a science,
but it's not an exact science.
That's what you'd say, eh?
I've watched so many of Philip's videos
on weatherwatch.co.nz.
Really?
Phil, I was obsessed with you
when we had the rain fall.
The website must have just blown up around that time.
Yeah, oh God, yeah.
I know everything about you.
No wonder his marriage broke up.
We've got women like Meg
sliding into his DMs.
The wife saw all the DMs from Meg.
Yeah.
Hey, Phil, love you.
Thank you so much for your time, man,
and breaking it down for us.
Really appreciate it.
Weatherwatch.co.nz.
Yeah, that's your go-to place. Philip, man, thank you so much for your time, man, and breaking it down for us. Really appreciate it. Weatherwatch.co.nz. Yeah, that's your go-to place.
Philip, man, thank you so much.
My pleasure, guys.
Have a great long weekend.
Yeah, I'm trying.
Well, somebody else who is going to be in our band
is with Gil Beller.
We heard she plays keys,
so we were like, do you have any experience?
She's like, yes.
We're like, fine, you're on.
You're hired.
That's it.
I saw your skills yesterday as well because we went to a music store and you
played on one of their grand pianos oh you were good oh thanks dan yeah yeah we're unsure still
how good but because we don't know if you're just one of those people that rehearses one song over
and over or if your knowledge goes beyond the memory of that song what's in your repertoire
how many songs okay not, not many. But.
If any.
But you can read music.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
I can read music and I'll learn a song.
Okay, you're in. You're the only one that can read music.
Why are you in neeps?
Okay, let's get to the Gen Z quiz.
You get a perfect score five from five.
Then you never have to play again.
If you're aged between, like, 29 and 44,
that's a millennial, you should ace this.
Okay.
If you're outside and if you're a Gen X,
I still think you should do pretty well.
Yeah, you can text in your answers as well
if you think you know them before ballet.
Here's your first question.
Easy one to start.
Who sings this song?
I'll stash you to the chorus.
Do I get the chorus?
Okay.
The face isn't looking...
Sounds familiar.
It sounds familiar,
but I'm just trying to think
of a Kiwi artist in the jar.
You've got to put a name in.
Okay, it could not be
a Kiwi artist.
Oh.
Well, it could be,
but I'm not going to give you
any clues.
Yeah, I don't know why.
Oh, and I'm leaning
towards Rod Stewart.
She goes,
oh, not a Kiwi artist,
must be Rod.
Okay. Have you heard of him? Yes. Yeah. He was in... She goes Oh not a Kiwi artist Must be Rod Ronan Keating
Have you heard of him?
Yes
Yeah
He was in
Boyzone
I think one of the worst
Boy bands of all time
Like I mean
If you put all the boy bands
Yeah I'd put Boyzone
Right down the bottom
Lower than five
Definitely
How dare you
What's your mouth out
Really
Oh god
Top three
Is five
What is wrong with the man?
Jesus, Deb.
You can't even bother me if you think that.
Okay.
This millennial chat is crazy.
Okay, name this TV show, Bella.
Okay, good luck.
To the help of who's saying hello.
It's a rare condition, this day and age. To read any good news. Would it help if we sang along? Yeah.
Now, to be fair, Bella, on you, I didn't know this either.
It was Clint and Meg that knew this one. Why did you think I was going to know it then?
Okay, I'll give you a clue because this is tricky.
Steve Urkel...
Did I do that?
...started his career on this TV show.
It's like some family sitcom type thing.
Ding, ding, ding.
Okay.
But what's the name?
How I Met Your Mother.
Oh.
No.
Family Matters.
Family Matters.
I've never heard of it once.
Family Matters.
Okay.
It's kind of like
step by step.
It's kind of like that.
Even I don't know
what that is.
God.
This is a soundtrack
to what movie?
I don't know this one.
You'll kick yourself
though when you hear the answer. It's a blockbuster. It's giving Titanic but I know it know this one. You'll kick yourself, though, when you hear the answer.
It's a blockbuster.
It's giving Titanic, but I know it's not Titanic.
You say that and then you look at our eyes.
No one got it right, so I'm not so bad.
Let's go, like, Star Wars, maybe.
Brilliant.
Top Gun.
It's set in the sky of sorts, I guess.
What's the Top Gun song?
You should have given me that one.
This is the Top Gun.
Danger Zone.
Yeah, but this is when they're walking out
and they're about to get in their plane.
They redid Top Gun as well,
and they reused all the music,
so could have got that.
This is a non-audio question.
Three guys and Big Fresh were types of what?
Oh, yeah, three guys.
Oh, supermarket chain.
Yes!
On the board. Big Fresh was the one you'd go on and they had. Yes. On the board. On the board.
Big Fresh was the one you go on and they had animatronics on the roof.
God, it was good.
Yeah.
Three guys was pretty cheap.
Grocers do I remember.
See if you can get two points on the board.
You've already got one.
Name this TV show.
Who are you going to be tonight, Gary?
Well, tonight, Matthew, I'm going to be Freddie Mercury.
Freddie Mercury.
A rock legend reborn as tonight's singing live
Gary Ballen is Freddie Mercury!
Da, da, da!
The music might help.
Yes.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Is it a TV show?
Yes, and actually, I'll give you another clue.
Simon Barnett actually ended up hosting a New Zealand version of this years ago.
It was before American Idol and stuff.
Yeah, it was so good.
It was such a great show.
I know I want to say the voice, but I know it's...
Tonight, Matthew, I'm going to be...
a singer.
Which would be the TV show...
Made in New Zealand.
Stars in their eyes. Have you Okay, Stars in Their Eyes.
Stars in Their Eyes.
Have you heard of Stars in Their Eyes now?
Now that you say it, a little bit, but like still.
I think it's Queenstown.
When I lived down there years ago, so it's probably finished now,
they do their own Stars in Their Eyes, like community.
Epic.
American Idol was my, that was my jam.
Years later.
Who's your favourite artist?
Or who's an artist that you could sing if you were doing karaoke?
What do you mean?
Who's your favourite artist?
Who do you like?
Musician, if you were doing karaoke.
Karaoke queen.
Is that an artist?
No.
Oh, queen.
Oh, I thought you meant karaoke.
So if you were like, yeah, so then you would like.
Matthew, I'm going to be Freddie Mercury.
And then they would take you away,
and then they would like dress you up
exactly like the person
and you just
effectively do karaoke
but it looked like
the celebrity
was singing the song
and the person wins
if they sound like the singer
they had their work
cut out to make you
look like Freddie Mercury
Jesus
bloody hell
that poor makeup lady
when you walk into the thing
she'd be like
God how am I gonna do this
moustache
I remember
I'll never forget
there was an episode
with a guy
who was the lead singer
of R.E.M.
And sorry, Dan's wrapping me up,
so I won't go into that.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Oh, my gosh.
We are putting together a band.
Have you ever, growing up,
wanted to put together a band
with you and your mates
and you just wondered how hard that would be?
Bands are just so cool.
Everyone looks cool.
Everyone is cool.
And you go, how hard would that be?
We're going to try and find out how far three friends can get
with six weeks' practice with instruments we've never played before
because we spoke to Mitch James,
and he was promoting his last ever show in Christchurch
at the end of next month, I think it's May 24th.
I'll have to double check with him.
He's sitting on hold at the moment.
He said this when he found out we had a band.
I haven't booked an opener.
Just saying. That's exciting. If at the moment. He said this when he found out we had a band. I haven't booked an opener. Just saying.
That's exciting.
If we really want to
make me look good,
I'm pretty down.
So he's looking for
a stink act to follow,
I think is what he meant there.
He's got the stinker sack
there is.
Oh, there's no stinker.
And a lot of people
accusing him of actually
just letting us open
so that we'll be
promoting our show
and then in turn
promoting his show
and helping sell tickets.
Morning, Mitch.
I never said that. Yeah, we know.
It's implied. We know.
So are you still sticking to your word?
Absolutely. So I've got
some homework for you guys. I'm going to
start off with the very
most novice classic songs of all
time. Okay. I'll test this to see
if we can do this.
Okay. Pretty much.
So, Meg, I mean
you were drums, right? Yes.
So, just
play in time.
Just like a simple
kick snare.
Okay. A simple kick snare
for about 10 seconds and that's
where we're going to start off with you.
So, Meg's is kind of like a freestyle.
I'm exploring.
Look, if she wants to.
I'm more just looking for in-time drum beats
rather than freestyling.
I'm insulted.
I'll give you more than that.
If you just want a literal simple drum beat,
I'll give it to you now.
Thank you very much, Mitch Jane.
I will also then do a little fill for you
and then go back to my little simple...
You'll see.
God, she's coming cocky, eh?
She only went in her drum kit hair.
Can we save that audio of what Meg has promised
before going into the long weekend, please?
Absolutely.
Please lock that in
because I'm not sure about the capabilities there, Meg,
but hey, you sound very confident,
but I don't know, we'll see again.
Oh, good.
I love...
That's my best way of pressurising myself is when somebody thinks I can't do something.
Okay.
Okay, what about Dan?
Okay.
Okay, Dan, you're both guitar, weren't you?
Yeah, the boys are.
So I'm like a rhythm guitar, Clint's a lead guitar.
I don't know what the difference is.
Okay, so we all know Smoke on the Water, right?
Right, yes.
Okay.
There we go. Alright.
So that is literally
the easiest song in
guitar history. Okay. So
Dan, I'm going to give that one to you.
Okay, Smoke on the Water.
Okay, right.
Okay.
Microneedling Clint, what I'm going to give
to you is... What I'm going to give to you is... That's what we call him too.
Smoke.
What I'm going to give to you is smells like teen spirit,
but not the riff.
It's just, you know, at the start where it's like... Oh, yeah.
Oh, here we go.
What's that?
Oh, that would be you, man.
That comes in there.
Yeah, all the way.
Yes.
Okay.
Okay, that sounds cool. I man. That man comes in there. Yeah, all the time, yes. Okay. Okay, that sounds cool.
I think only one of those foot pedals.
It feels like the effect does most of the work in there.
I'm happy with that.
Thank you, Mitch.
I'll tell you what's going to happen.
No, no, no, sorry.
Did you just hear that bit there?
The...
Yeah.
That's what I need from you.
We're starting off very...
Oh, he's just giving you two notes.
I'm fine.
It's all right.
I'm going to play smooth on the water.
Okay, I'll tell you what, Mitch.
You're going to come back after this break.
The water's like five notes.
Okay, so you're going to come back after this break, Mitch.
You're going to hear mine,
and there'll be no smoke on the water
because you'll be blowing it all up my ass.
That's how much you're going to love smoke on the water.
All right, we'll see.
We'll see.
I don't know if this man believes in us.
I've been next up the hardest homework,
but she's made it harder for herself.
Okay.
And while you're here, do you want to use any of your time to promote your ticket sales and your show in Christchurch or nah?
Nah.
Yeah, nah.
Hey, everyone, everyone, please buy my tickets.
I don't know what else to say,
but there's not going to be many of them, hopefully.
So last show, it's going to be fun.
It's going to be special.
And there's going to be a really, really special opening.
Yeah, we'll be there.
If you don't sell any tickets.
Definition on special.
We'll see.
If you don't sell any tickets, you can just blame us.
Absolutely.
And I will be.
Mitch, thank you, brother.
You have a great long weekend.
Love you guys.
You too. Thanks, man. He's a musician, so he You have a great long weekend. Love you guys. You too.
Thanks, man.
He's a musician,
so he's always having a long weekend, isn't he?
Yeah, he is.
Man, smoke on the water.
I've got to get practising.
I don't even know that song.
I think it's that.
I think it's that.
You doing it again doesn't make it any easier, Clint.
No?
No.
I think, Producer Neeps, can you turn your mic on?
You've got a bass guitar there.
Can you play it? Yeah, this is it, Producer Neeps, can you turn your mic on? You've got a bass guitar there. Can you play it?
Yeah, this is it, Dan.
It's really not selling it to me.
Yes.
Okay.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Easter weekend.
If you would like to get your hands on only one of two ever made Easter Megs,
thanks to Body Effects, they made the mould of Meg just off photos alone,
which is crazy.
And then Devonport Chocolate ended up taking the baton from there and creating Meg's face out of chocolate.
It's so amazing.
His emulance is uncanny.
Despite Dan obviously showing off on the radio and saying it looked awful,
he, this morning, Meg, he goes, oh my God, that is, that's so cool.
They look better in person.
It's very clever.
They just gorge.
They look delicious as well.
But I don't know if I'd want to eat it because it's so beautiful. That's the tricky. They look better in person. It's very clever. It's just gorge. They look delicious as well, but I don't know if I'd want to eat it
because it's so beautiful.
That's the tricky thing, yeah.
So you guys want her, this little Meggig,
the last one in the world ever to be made,
you would like her to go and do something fun.
Yeah, well, we thought if we're going to give it to somebody,
who can promise to show our Easter Megg the best time
and get a photo of it in the most unique circumstance or location?
Yeah.
And it could be as simple as you do one of those,
like maybe you do a crazy job where you clean windows of high-rise buildings
and you could take Meg up to like one of the highest buildings in New Zealand.
Are you planning on going on a trip tomorrow?
Yeah.
Take me overseas.
Are you a tour guide in Waitomo Caves?
Could you take Meg through
the caves with the glowworms?
Yeah, we just want you to show Meg a good time.
When was the last time you had a good time?
Probably about seven
months ago. Oh yeah, that's right.
We need you in a couple months.
Okay.
She can pinpoint the exact day she had a great
time. No, I'm joking. We don't need any
photos of Meg doing that. I'm joking. Maybe you could, if you could 21 No, I'm joking. Oh, my God. We don't need any photos of Meg doing that.
I'm joking.
Maybe you could, if you could, 21st, I think she's hollow,
so you could maybe make me a cup.
Oh, yeah, like cut the head open and drink out of it.
I'm going to ask you to drink with me.
No, no, no, that would be such a waste.
I mean, she is hollow, so you could put anything in her, really.
Like you could put, like say, for instance,
you're going on an overseas trip.
You could put a tracking device in there. What were you thinking?
You know, and we could see where Meg's going throughout the trip that you're going on.
Yep, yep.
I don't know, what could you possibly do with this Meg?
Just don't take her anywhere hot.
Yeah, that's true.
Any places you don't like going Meg?
Like where you go, that's not really me.
Skydiving?
No, I would rather her do it than me.
Right.
But she'd have to have her own parachute.
I don't think anyone would let people throw out quite a heavy piece of chocolate on a plane.
Yeah, true.
It could kill someone.
Okay, if you've got plans over the long weekend and you're like,
yeah, I could take Meg with me and snap a few pics of her enjoying herself.
Oh, you know what would be funny?
Seeing who has a more fun long weekend, the actual Meg or the Easter Meg.
That's great.
Someone, Abby, has just texted her saying,
I'll take her on my surfboard on a storm.
Oh, Abby, please don't surf in a storm, darling.
I don't want to know.
That's going to worry me.
No, it's just you on the surfboard.
Oh, just me on the surfboard.
That's fine.
Just the chocolate.
Yeah.
I don't want to be saved.
All right, if you want to get your hands on it, you just have to
convince us that you're going to show our Easter Meg a good time.
Meg's face
mould covered in chocolate.
Daniel says he wants to eat Meg's face off.
He texted that an hour ago though, weird.
Oh yeah, nothing to do with this.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Body Effects, thank you guys very much for creating
a mould of Meg's face through just using photos
I'm not sure how you did that
and then Devonport Chocolate
ended up finishing the job
so we have Meg's face
like a face mould of her
uncanny resemblance
we're calling it
our Easter Meg
only two of them
ever created
gave away one already
about an hour and a half ago
you just have to tell us
how you would show
our Easter Meg
a good time
and document it for us and and she's all yours.
Yeah.
It could be anything from going overseas and taking Meg with you
to, well, what someone has suggested on the text machine,
rolling you down Baldwin Street in Dunedin.
That I believe it's Stuart.
Yeah.
I mean, no one would get to eat the chocolate, though, Stuart.
It would just, you know.
A little wasteful, but I would love the slow-mo.
You there, Stuart?
Yeah.
How you doing?
You good?
So would you eat Meg
after you rolled her down
Baldwin Street?
It depends on how much
gravel rash she's sitting in.
Quite a bit,
quite a bit I imagine
if you're going right to the top.
I've been there before.
Do you live on Baldwin Street,
Stuart,
or are you just in the area?
Oh, I'm going to fly down,
see my folks down there.
It's time in Dunedin, so...
I mean, she is rollable.
I look at her now,
and she looks like she would roll.
I wouldn't last a quarter.
What do you mean?
It's your first time in Dunedin,
and your parents live there.
Do they just move?
Oh, they've moved down there recently.
I'm not that bad of a human being.
I was wondering.
Yeah, but you are willing to roll Meg down a very steep hill.
Okay.
So there's one option.
I think that's one idea.
And then we have Brenda.
Brenda, you've got a party to go to?
Oh, yes.
It's my husband's 50th and it's a big cowboy party.
Okay.
So we've got all hay bales and all that and everybody's dressing up.
We've had socks made and we're having a spit.
Oh, that sounds like...
If we had an Easter Clint, that's his...
Yeah.
Oh, you've got a spit roast as well.
Yep, having a spit roast as well, yeah.
With about 50 people.
Once you've got rid of the pig or whatever,
I wonder if you could...
Oh, no, the heat, eh?
Yeah, it'll melt instantly.
Put Maggie to the side and just have her turning around
and just for the rest of the night as like an ornament that's, you know? I know what you're doing. I know what you're saying. You want me to say it out loud. I'm not going to say, put Maggie to the side and just have her turning around and just for the rest of the night as like an ornament.
I know what you're doing.
Are you still talking about the chocolate?
You want me to say it out loud?
I'm not going to say it.
Say what?
I'm not going to say what you're saying.
I'm not going to say it.
It's 8.50.
Yeah, but kids aren't in school.
It's holidays.
I'm not.
No, you're naughty.
Right.
Okay.
What about Hayden?
Hi, Hayden. What's up, Jamie? How are you? Yeah, good. Good, Hayden. Always good to chat with you, right. Okay. What about Hayden? Hi, Hayden.
What's up, Jamie?
How are you?
Yeah, good, Hayden.
Always good to chat with you, bro.
How are you going to show Meg a good time?
I'm going to show Meg a good time.
So imagine it now.
Me, the delivery room, and the two loves of my life.
Okay.
That's you, Meg.
Chocolate.
That's you, Meg.
Meg was like, wait, is it your wife and child?
Have you got two ladies?
Okay, so Meg can sit there.
Would you put her down the business end?
I'd want to be down the business end.
Hell yeah.
She'll be in for a look.
The only problem with this, Hayden,
is we were wanting sort of photo evidence
of the fun time that Meg's having,
and I feel like...
Well, wifey's not going to love a photo of me
right down business end just smiling away.
They're going to click slow.
Yeah, that's what he'd have to tell her.
Okay.
I think that's personally the best option so far.
Someone else says they could take him to their in-laws' alpaca farm.
That's from Mike.
Did he say delivery room like around July though?
I could bloody take her to the delivery room in July.
She's going to be mouldy.
Oh, true.
Yeah.
How long does chocolate last?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Another one says, Meg, they could take you to the farm and get a lick from a cow.
Ruby is going to be heading to the farm over the long weekend.
Somebody wants to sneak me into Te Papa.
Just put me on one of the stands somewhere.
Ooh.
Now, I like that.
Don't mind that.
That is good.
Can we get Meg into Te Papa?
And then they just go, oh, look.
And it's the perfect crime because it looks nothing like her.
So people go and they go, who's that?
And it's untraceable.
It's untraceable.
Let's get them off.
That's Ashton.
We're just trying to talk to Ashton.
Ashton, now, would you be committed to sneaking me into to papa?
I could give it a go.
I haven't been there for a while.
I need to remember what's in Te Papa.
Okay, well, I'll tell you what will be in Te Papa this weekend.
This sounds like someone that talks a big game,
but now that we're calling you, you're like...
You know, Trevor.
Come on, Ashton, you need to put your money where your mouth is.
We'll send this to you.
You take it into Te Papa.
I'm imagining it like... And I don't want to be sitting at a cafe table. I want to be somewhere that where your mouth is. We'll send this to you. You take it into Te Papa. I'm imagining it like...
And I don't want to be sitting at a cafe table.
I want to be somewhere that people could think is an exhibition.
Yeah, like they're almost confused
and wondering if it's part of the museum.
Someone else said they could take her to Hobbiton.
Now that's more up your alley, me.
Oh, God, I would die to go to Hobbiton.
Okay, so we've got some options.
I reckon we maybe correlate all the good options
and then come back to this in like 10 minutes.
Because we've got too many good options.
Okay, yeah, keep them coming through
and we'll make a decision before 9 o'clock.
Yeah, because I think we need to go back to the drawing board.
We've got too much stuff.
Sarah's going to take you to the Chiefs game
and split you up amongst all the fans at the end?
