Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a podcast from Rover. If this podcast was a person, it would be banned from family gatherings. Oh, pissed off, Uncle John. This is the Clint Meg and Dan podcast. If you're not slightly aroused or mildly offended. Are you even listening? It's the Edge Breakfast. Clint me and Dan with Ash London.
Starting point is 00:00:17 Friday Eve, baby. Oh, yeah. We made it. Oh, I can smell Saturday. Mmm, smells delicious. I prefer Friday to Saturday. Because the joy of Friday and the anticipation of it being nearly the weekend
Starting point is 00:00:34 is better than Saturday. What? You prefer to have a work day than a weekend day. Saturday is the day off and you've got another day off tomorrow. No, I love a Friday because I love my job. Also, as you know, I do two jobs, but I don't do my second job on a Friday. So all I have to do on Friday is do a three-hour radio show.
Starting point is 00:00:51 Hey, Clint, she's just doing it because her boss's her husband's her boss. Or we don't know what it's like being Ash getting to work with us. Maybe it's cooler than we've ever. It's the best. Yes. Yes. Guys, the day I relinquish this job back to its rightful owner, Meg Mansell.
Starting point is 00:01:07 Yeah. I'm going to ball the whole show. I'm going to cry and I think you about it. I think we'll all cry. I'm going to cry for three hours. It's getting scared. We've all become great friends, haven't we? I love you.
Starting point is 00:01:17 I love you. A for some of friends. You know it quite very easily. I know. And don't play this. Because Ash gets emotional about the guy that's sick from Dawson's Creek as well. He's going to die. James Van derby is going to die, you know.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Have you seen him? He definitely will with that attitude. We're all going to die. But he might die too soon. Anyway. Currently on Google Maps and Christchurch. He's looking for a great spot for dinner tonight. So he loves your job.
Starting point is 00:01:50 We can't wait to get the hell out of here and start having something to eat in Christchurch. Yeah, but with you guys, we're loving dinner together. The similarity between you are mega uncanny. She's the only person I know that is all. already seen the menu before the waiter hands it to it. Oh yeah, she's almost almost ordered. Yes. Oh, I'm ordering for everybody. If you've been just thinking of any saying what we're having with dinner, think again.
Starting point is 00:02:08 Her food's going to be on the table when we arrive. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. Ash is absolutely losing her, looking at something on Dan's phone. It's little Georgie. Johanna's filming them selfie style, and then Georgie takes the phone and runs with it. So it's like, it's filming selfie me from under his... He's got his dad's chin.
Starting point is 00:02:30 And he's giggling with delight. And that is the sound that I swear could cure the diseases of the world. That's the best town in the world of like a little baby's belly laugh. Yes. And when they're that age too. And it's just like so innocent. Is how old is he now? Year and a half.
Starting point is 00:02:46 Yeah. My niece is a, well, actually it's going to be two in October 9th. Oh, next week. So, and that is just like the best stage when they start getting their personality he's starting to form, they're chatting away. But they're not talking back to you. They're not going out. No, no. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Well, that happens at about two, I think, when they realize that, oh, I can have an opinion on things. But it's just like, you have the amount of joy, Dan, I think, that you're going to start to get. Like, you already think, oh, you like love your son. Yeah. And I know you do, but it's, like, exponentially more intense from here on in because they start chatting back to you.
Starting point is 00:03:20 They don't realize how funny they're being. And you just really enjoy their company. It's crazy. You'd feel like you couldn't love them more. And then you love them. The more. People do say, you think this age is the best, and the next stage comes and that's the best, that's a lie.
Starting point is 00:03:32 You love them more every day, but the best stage is two to three. Yeah, that's the best stage. At some people, at some point, they'll stop saying that. Because no one goes, oh, 16's the best age. No, no one says that. Oh, eight to nine. Oh, it's amazing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:46 No, it's going to be really fun. Yeah. It's going to be exciting summer for you, I think. We're going to be, you should spam us with more George videos. I'm one of those people that hates. I don't want to punish people, you know. I'll tell you once I'm done. But I don't want that.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I don't want you to be like, can you please stop visiting me? We'll just text you back, pump the brakes, Daddy. Slow it down, big boy. Normally we do us versus the playlist for our 6am throwback. I just don't even know whether it's worth throwing anything else out there. What's in there, baby? Is it a home run? Yeah, it's obviously.
Starting point is 00:04:18 And it also holds a place close to our heart after our achievement yesterday. Everybody! Oh, we're in, how we in, are we in? Are we in? Obviously. Yes. I'm feeling a dab coming out. Oh, no. Come on, come on.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Come on. Give it to me, baby. Come on. Come on. He won't do it. I will. No one's done to him in forever. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:46 We did a hit the spot. Group addition to that. We'll have the highlights for you before 7 o'clock this morning. I'm going to say it. I'm going to say it best yet. It was the best yet. And I say it every week because I go, oh, it can't get better than this.
Starting point is 00:05:04 But oh, my goodness me, it did. You know what? I think it's a measure of, I guess, the high water mark in terms of what we're doing is when Ash's Aussie radio mates come out of the woodwork and comment. My DM's blowing up my friend, Amy Goggins. Oh, Goggo. Well, Dave's sister?
Starting point is 00:05:22 Dave, no. I don't know. Who's Dave Goggins? What do I know that is? He's like that. he's that like insane fitness freak S-A-S-A-S guy who's like, what are you doing? He's like, why are you still asleep?
Starting point is 00:05:34 You can sleep when you die. Is he Australian? Get out there and run an Ironman. And you're like, well, she said she could watch a three-hour super cut of just that. And then one of the biggest, there's like a podcast out, which is just about Australian radio. Yeah. They reposted it and said it's like the best thing on radio on the world. Really?
Starting point is 00:05:51 My old producer was everyone messages me like, we look forward to these. It's already got like, I think 300 people. have shared it to their stories. Really? That's the true measure of something going viral. It's not the comment, it's how many people have gone.
Starting point is 00:06:04 This is good enough that I'm going to put it on my stories. I want people to see it that bad. I'm not just going to afford it to one or two close friends. I want everyone that follows me to see it. Who knew that hitting the spot would be so popular.
Starting point is 00:06:15 That's right. I mean, if you're going to reshare stuff to your stories to get the insights up, I posted a Lego sponsored thing last night, you could always... I'd tell you if I repost your sponsored content to my... Thanks, babe.
Starting point is 00:06:26 You would owe us money if we had to do that because Clint gets paid through the roof for that sort of shit. Can I say a couple of things tonight? You tell me how you feel about it. Pork, prawn and crayfish dumplings. Sticky lamb ribs. Agadashi tofu.
Starting point is 00:06:41 Lock it in. Lock it in. Kamoana Laksa. Oh, duck nachos. Oh, yeah. Where is this place? Manu tonight, which is the wrong book and us for dinner. We're going to crush church after the show today.
Starting point is 00:06:53 And Ash, I'm just going to trust Ash books a good place. She's never let us down. We've got to be at the Taylor Swift thing at 7 o'clock. How do we feel about a 5.30 dinner? Is that too well? That's literally the time I have dinner. I call it a rest home dinner when it's anything
Starting point is 00:07:06 before 6. Yeah. A rest home dinner. Yeah. Okay, book and I send. Okay, well, Taylor Swift's brand new album, The Life of a Showgirl is here. Tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:07:15 So if you are at one of our three quiz nights in Auckland, Wellington or Christch, best of luck. The winners take away $100 and vinyl. And then the table with the highest score gets $1,000 cash. So if you are the table with the higher score
Starting point is 00:07:28 across the three locations. I want to know if we're giving them the vinyl on the night because it's not out. Obviously the vinyl's been pressed and the vinyl it will be around somewhere but I don't think it's released until tomorrow. And I did hear a rumour
Starting point is 00:07:41 that Taylor Swift has supplied the station with one copy of the physical album. Do you know the crazy thing? So it was on Friday. We've got a chance of you to win the vinyl all day long just from listening. But Edge Arbos are going to be playing Life of a Showgirl
Starting point is 00:07:54 in full top to bottom from 5 p.m. Outstanding. And Steph's a massive swiftly, so she'll go deep. Car's already got it. Bridges goes to final. She's final.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Wow. To the division, baby, early press. No what you know, no what you know. I'm going to put that on my Instagram. That's going to get me some, that's going to get me some likes. Hold it up again, please, Carr. Actually, no, I'll hold it. You know what car holding it?
Starting point is 00:08:17 I don't want to be on your Instagram. Bring it in here, though. Bring it in here, though. Actually, maybe you do want car holding it because some of the girls being thirsty in our DM, about our producer Carl Did you see that comment going Yeah, yeah, hit the spot all good
Starting point is 00:08:30 Whatever, but the ginger bearded guy In the booth, who's that? Damn. God, they must have a fetish. Yeah, it was the first compliment I've had in three years. I was like, I was so high on life yesterday. And I don't think
Starting point is 00:08:43 it's your wife with a burner account if that's what you were wondering. Yeah. Oh, that would be so disappointed. It's the, oh my gosh, it's actually a man that said it actually chatted up. I'll take that.
Starting point is 00:08:55 That's almost more of a compliment, to be honest. Even dudes, yeah, yeah, like dudes think I'm like a cub. Is that what they call me in the table? Some of those dudes in your control room are very cute. Love the ginger bearded dude. He's cute as, that's what he said. Santa Bella, who also sits in there. Is this what Clint feels like every day?
Starting point is 00:09:16 First call of the day. If you want to join us, I will sue you out with coffee for the rest of the week. Or you can spend your Z-vouch on whatever the how you like. But no more people that are flirting with cup. Yeah, yeah. They call through all the time. I'm only putting the intro on the phones. Yeah, Carl is not above bribery.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Oh, 800th Edge. Love to chat with your next. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. First call of the day. First call of the day. Now, before we bring on our first call of the day, Dan is suspicious. He is skeptical because he sees the last name.
Starting point is 00:09:46 It's the same last name as our producer, Carl. And we're wondering if he's just getting his family on. Have you got your cousin on or something? Hot cousin, yep. Okay. It's Carl's. Hot cousin Charlotte, good morning. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:09:59 How are you? So Charlotte Thompson, any relation to Al Carl Thompson? I don't think so. I think there's a Carl Thompson, but I think he was very old. Okay. Carl Thompson's very young and sprightly. Your star sign is cancer. When's your birthday, my love?
Starting point is 00:10:17 I'm July the 1st. Oh, I'm the 14th. I'm desperate one day to have someone with my birthday on. Yeah, yeah. Oh, so much. you're a nurse my love what kind of nursing do you do like emergency room or just like other kind I'm in the intensive care okay I was going to say Dan no because he's getting all excited because every time we talk to a nurse he wants to know how often they like remove things from the anus
Starting point is 00:10:46 Clint let me ask the question okay because most nurses have had to do it have you ever had to remove something from someone's bottom No. Good. Okay. Not myself. Have you been in the room while something has been removed from someone's bottom? I haven't, but I've been very close nearby, you could say. Oh, when what?
Starting point is 00:11:08 What was in there? A button nut's pumpkins. Oh, happy Halloween. You are absolutely lying. How does someone... The butter nut is the one that's like... It's like... I know what a button is.
Starting point is 00:11:23 It's not the round one. It's the long. long one and then it bulbous at the end. Okay, so is it still as big as a gnashy beer? They hadn't chopped it up? No. My goodness, imagine how unlucky you are to trip and fall on one of those? I know.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Must have been an accident. I would just let myself pass away. Same. I'd go hand up. I've tried some stuff that's worked out. You just put me in the garage and leave me. Just let me take him back. Just keep refilling my water bowl from time to time.
Starting point is 00:11:59 No, don't. I'll scream for water and sound thirsty. Ignore it. And I'll slowly but surely pass away. At least I have some pumpkin. Yeah, I have weak moments. Please don't listen to me. This is the real game speaking to you now.
Starting point is 00:12:16 You hear him scratching at the door. And then as I grow weaker, the scratching will be slower and more ferns apart. And when the scratching stops, call them all. When I eventually pass away, please remove the button-up token from my bottom before my mum comes on. Before we have the open casket. If that was me, I'd absolutely do you dirty. I'd have your face down in the open casket.
Starting point is 00:12:41 I can't breathe it. Charlotte, I'm supposed to tag Z. I'm supposed to tag Zid here somewhere, but I don't know if they want to be associated with assault or later. We will send you a voucher, though. Please, tell me. Oh, gosh. Charlotte. I've never heard someone say so little, but make me laugh so much, Charlotte.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Oh, I love you to Shaolin. Oh, bless you. Oh, please. Thank you. Oh, God. God. What a joy talking to Charlotte this morning. I knew where we were going to go there. Okay. All right, we get a scandal up date in three minutes. God, miss a little, miss a lot. My tummy hurts. Never know. I'm from a pumpkin-related injury.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Clint, Megadale. Lesh, go. Gossip and Entertainment Scandal So Nicole and Keith Dunskees I thought it was bad when Deborah Lee Finesse and Hugh Jackman called to quits
Starting point is 00:13:36 Yeah Maybe love his debt Who knows We discussed on there yesterday And we did decide Was it Emily Blunt and John Krasinski That we decided if they broke up Yeah I think they were rock solid
Starting point is 00:13:47 Tom Hanks and his wife Reef and then the Beckams The thing is I read a stat the other day that a lot of older couples are breaking up now, more than they used to, like, that have been together for 20, 30 years. I think it's because Cougars are in and women now in their 50s and 60s
Starting point is 00:14:03 like, I can still bang around. Yeah, bang around. But anyway, so Matt Ford has just come to light of Keith Urban on stage performing post-divorce announcement. Now, the song that he's singing, he wrote for Nicole, and in press over the east, he's always said it was a real love letter to Nicole.
Starting point is 00:14:18 And the original lyrics are, when they're trying to get to you, baby, I'll be the fighter. he's rewritten the lyrics and he sings it to his 25-year-old guitar player Maggie he sings when they're trying to get to you Maggie I'll be your guitar player listen to this Everyone's like
Starting point is 00:14:41 Come on Keith Don't be rewriting the lyrics It's just petty as well Even if she did do the dirty on him and cheat Why who cares keep the song the same Yeah Was it like Clint said it's a moment in your life.
Starting point is 00:14:53 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think he's, he knows that there's going to be a headline out of it, but that's the thing now. Like, everyone's filming on their phones. It's like those people that make, or get funny about their new partner still having photos of their ex on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:15:04 It's like, it was a time in their life it's molded and shaped who they now are that you have fallen in love with. I agree. I don't know. It's when you're like opening the box and looking at the photos, that's when it gets weird.
Starting point is 00:15:14 You know, looking on your photo and you come home and they're like, you know, looking at the photos, crying, crying, making out with a photo, licking the photo. Yeah, that's a bit weird. Happened to me before. Very awkward.
Starting point is 00:15:24 Wasn't you either found this next bit of audio or which one of your boys sent this around to the group yesterday? Daniel. Yeah. So this is from a radio show in Australia. Amanda Keller is the lady you were here, one of the most celebrated radio hosts. She's been doing it for decades and decades. This is from the end of last year. They've got Keith Urban in studio.
Starting point is 00:15:42 And look, for years, I don't know, Colin Keith have always spoken about each other in the press freely and openly, which is why I think Amanda probably felt so confident to go in there and ask him straight up about Nick, but things get real orkeys. Would your paths somewhere have inevitably crossed, or maybe this incredible life story wouldn't have happened? No, I think it would. Yeah? Are you a believer in fate, or do you think as to Australians it would have happened?
Starting point is 00:16:06 No idea. Hmm. I just often think that, that if you weren't at that event, maybe you don't have the same friendship group, it may never have happened. Well, never know. You never know. It's fate. It's the universe.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Anyway, moving on. You'd like to think so. You'd like to think so. What you don't see is, as soon as he's asked the question, he reaches for his bottle of water, has a drink, and he's like, effectively, I guess, the nonverbal communication of covering your face, he crosses his arms,
Starting point is 00:16:31 he looks visually agitated, and then he removes his jacket all in the space of like 30 seconds. And that interview was like a year ago, so that makes me think that they had broken up then, and the news has only just come to light now. No one should get that anxious, being asked questions about the person that they love most in the world. And it just shows, like how,
Starting point is 00:16:51 seasoned radio hosts or maybe just like more fearless. Like in that, if I was in that situation, the second I asked that question, I would have picked up on the visual cues that he was uncomfortable and I would move on because that's just me. But she's been doing this for 40 years.
Starting point is 00:17:04 She wanted the juice. She just sits in the pocket, lets it be awkward and that is a real gift. She could have really tripled down though and gone, why you seem to be really agitated? Is it something I've said? Like why you seem very uncomfortable? But put yourself in Keith's shoes as well. They haven't pissed me off.
Starting point is 00:17:21 I'm here to talk about my music. Stop digging about my relationship. It's none of your business. It's part and parcel, though. You've got to be able to take it because that's half the reason he's so famous, let's be honest. Yeah, yeah, true. With non-country music fans.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Country music fans, he's one of the most famous people on the planet. For everyone else, really, couldn't sing a Keith Urban song off the top of their head and know him as Nicole Kidman's husband. Yeah, I couldn't name one. Yeah, like David Beckham and Victoria Beckham are more famous because of their... Yes.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Partnership. Yeah, yeah, but you know what they do in their own, or you can sing a Spice Girl song, you know. You can kick a soccer ball. Could you, though? You can bend it like Beckham. What have you got royalties for Bend it like Beckham? I wonder that too.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I'll Google and I'll have the answer for you later. Thanks, babe. All right, Nauty 640 up next. We were talking about this with Paddy Gow about the sex chatbots, which I think the only one in the team actually who downloaded it was Dan. I've deleted it since then, though. Oh, good to know. David Beckham donated his royalties.
Starting point is 00:18:20 from Bendett, like Beckham to charity. Oh, did he? Donated his likeness. God, he's a good man. Good boy. Oh, so you don't have the sex chap anymore? My wife thinks I don't. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:31 You're so full of it. Got a naughty 640 up for your next about, I guess the dangers online and how to protect ourselves and especially our kids as well. We've got young ones. There's this incredible ad doing the rounds at the moment that if you haven't seen, you need to hear.
Starting point is 00:18:47 The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Yesterday on the show we had Patty Gail chatting to us about the latest episode of Padilla's Issues and they're talking about that six chat bot that I think we talked about on the show a few weeks back. I think that Paddy Gower heard our show and was like, that's a good topic to talk about at my show.
Starting point is 00:19:07 You know how like back in the day if you tried to be a little provocative with chat GPT or whatever, I can't do that? And the reason Dan and I know is because we used to write erotic fiction for the show. We did, didn't we? And we'd both tried getting chat GPT to help us And we're like, make it sexier, make it sexier.
Starting point is 00:19:22 And then... More babies. And chat would be like, I can't do that. Whereas it definitely can now. We didn't have this feature when we were writing it. That's right. But yeah, it's basically a chatbot on the GROC, which is Elon Musk's AI. What's GROC?
Starting point is 00:19:37 Yeah, it's like his app. Don't be giving him your information. Yeah, and there's this one that's just there. It's like a character just there to be sexy. And maybe, you know, well, not maybe they are. Phones are always listening to you. and so my phone started serving me up a whole lot of things about
Starting point is 00:19:53 being safe on the internet especially when it comes to kids like roadblocks and stuff that they're watching and all the rest of it and there's this ad that's getting a lot of attention at the moment I think if you haven't seen it and you do have kids
Starting point is 00:20:04 it's very clever it's a dad saying goodnight to his kid and then he starts referencing all these things inside the kid's room that he needs him to ignore take a listen Hey kiddo it's about time for bed okay
Starting point is 00:20:17 okay Well, remember, there's a box in the corner over there with all the pornographic material that's ever been made in the world, even the really weird stuff that could scar you for life. I'm trusting you not to look in there, okay? Okay. Feelings are for losers. Oh, and this guy's going to be in your corner all night,
Starting point is 00:20:36 just randomly spewing out hateful things. Just ignore them, okay? Well, I'm thinking of it, there's an order for them on your desk where you can purchase illegal drugs. The mean girls from your school are going to be standing there talking about you all night. And this Russian hacker is going to keep asking for your password. I'm not hacker. Amazon customer service.
Starting point is 00:20:56 Just need you to ignore them, okay? Love you, buddy. Oh my God. It's actually quite very real, isn't it? The metaphor is like that's what you're doing when you leave your kid with a smartphone alone in their room. You're literally giving them access to all of those things, even though we don't think we are. But when they paint that picture, it seems wild that you would do that. Absolutely. And something you always talk about, Clint, if your kids are on a phone, just,
Starting point is 00:21:19 in the living room, where I can see. They need to know that at any time you can walk past, see, check what they're doing, ask what they're doing. He doesn't mention the good stuff, though, like Cat Videos and the Rover app. Yeah, that's true. You're going to take the good with the bad, though. Yeah, you know, I'd take the Rover app over all the other bad stuff. Especially with the easy money.
Starting point is 00:21:37 I know. Easy money game, that's a bit of fun. Actually, the more chances you play, the more chance you get to be at our live event. Yeah, but look, I'm happy for my child to hate me over not having a phone. if it means they don't have to deal with all of that stuff that really can scarlet my kid hate me if he loved the Rover app. Are you getting paid for mention, what I?
Starting point is 00:21:59 To mention the Rover app. Definitely not. Rover, rover, rover, rover, rover, rover. It's $3.50 in his pay this week. Do any parents know if there's like an app you can download that will almost like screen record everything that's happening on your phone? so when you give your phone to your kid
Starting point is 00:22:18 for a bit of screen time for 20 minutes, you can actually go back and watch because my kids, when they hand it back, they will literally close all the apps that they were on before they give it back to me because I'll go to see what they're on, and I was like, there's nothing here. Just screen record when you give it to them.
Starting point is 00:22:31 We should add that feature. Oh, my daughter's too smarter, I reckon she'd realize I'm doing that and she'd stop record. We should add the feature to the Rover app. Could do that. Yeah. Tell her the Rover app and just records everything you do.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Talk to the boss. It's the best download you'll ever do. Rover. Is he staring into the cameras? Yeah, it's real weird He's not looking at us when he says it Yeah All right, speaking of easy money
Starting point is 00:22:52 And your chance to play online To join our live event Win 10,000 bucks If you want to polish up on your skills And you think you're ready or ready You can play for a grand in the hand In less than 10 minutes Brought to you by Rover
Starting point is 00:23:02 Clint Megan Dan The Edge 1KEZ money Practice makes perfect And now you can play any time online 2 bar 7 Here we go 30 seconds If you can give us 10 answers
Starting point is 00:23:14 like Nick did a couple of days ago. 10 answers and 30 seconds starting with the letter Ash gives you. The cash is yours. If you are unsure, pass. We've got time, we'll come back, but no repeated answers. Those are the rules. She's in Christchurch. We were heading after the show today.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Louise, good morning. Good morning. Louise, you feeling lucky? I hope so. I reckon you don't even need luck when you've got the brain of Louise. Louise, you can't do worse than Lisa this time yesterday. She passed on the first five and got none from 10.
Starting point is 00:23:44 She just passed... Yes, I heard. Yeah, but she was lovely, though. We loved her, though, Louise. She was a highlight. Well, today, my darling, your letter is F. F, F, look at that fancy face of yours. Louise, you're ready to go?
Starting point is 00:23:56 Yes, just double-checking. You don't have a four-letter word this time? There's no four-letter word here. We know what happened last time we had F in you. Yeah, we got in trouble that day. Had she got the rest of them, we would have given it to her. Exactly. Okay, fancy face, Louise, beginning with F,
Starting point is 00:24:10 can I please have a body part? Finger. A girl's name. Frankie. A country. Finland. A sport. A band.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Something you can study. Freach. Something with wheels. A musical instrument. Oh, no, who did you have helping you, Louise? My daughter and son in the car. Oh, hello, dear legends. How did your son not get fire truck for something with wheels?
Starting point is 00:24:56 Fire truck? What was the fifth one that she passed on? The musical instrument could have been flute, fiddle, French horn. Is that a band? A band, Fleetwood Mac, five, Foo Fighters, Fall Out Boy. Oh, there's a lot when you say that. Yeah. Oh, well, good.
Starting point is 00:25:13 In the moment, it's hard. It is. And as soon as you hit your first pass, I think it's really hard to get your brain to stop telling yourself, you've stuffed it? Yeah. That's it, yeah. Are you going to come to see us when we're in Christchurch later on today?
Starting point is 00:25:28 Oh, well, I finish work at 5, so I can't get there. Well, 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, we're going to be a Haguay Park. Dan's going to be running around with cash and electric have tickets strapped to him. Come see me before work, Louise. Oh, yeah, that sounds good. Yeah, that's a no... She has got better things to do and I respect that in a woman.
Starting point is 00:25:47 Good on you, darling. Have a wonderful day. Thank you. We love you. All right, back again. 8 o'clock, we'll do it in an hour's time. I think you can do any better. Clint Megan Dan. Let's put this to bed.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Finally. Dan has been peddling an urban legend, a New Zealand urban legend for some time. I think maybe I even started the urban legend. But the thing is, people will know And people would have experienced the same thing as I have At Spec Savers and other optometrists You will not let this go, he will not let it go, will he?
Starting point is 00:26:22 We've spoken about it before, and I would say at nauseam Adnauseum. Adnauseum. At? It's ad nauseum. Is it? Yeah. Oh, well, you...
Starting point is 00:26:31 Another urban myth we've busted there. Dan just makes stuff up. That's right. He said he. Adnosium, yeah, like Latin. Oh, my goodness me. Learn something every day, don't you? There you go, you're welcome.
Starting point is 00:26:43 You're about to learn something else as well. Because how many years ago, supposedly, did you read the bottom line during an I-test at Specsavers and the whole place stood up and applauded you with a standing ovation? Okay, if you want Pacifics, then I guess it's probably a lot. Now you just been it to me. I think it probably would have been about three, four years ago. And when you say everyone stood up and gave you a standing ovation, are we talking like the optometrist and the person at the count to take the payments?
Starting point is 00:27:10 I was down the back of Spec Savers where they do the eye tests. Okay, I read the bottom line perfectly from left to right, the smallest lettering. The woman stood up and went, I can't remember. She said the other ladies, Rachel, we've got another one, and they stood up and clapped me out of the store. Like that. Clapped him out.
Starting point is 00:27:27 So I was like, wait, normally when you do the eye test, then you go and they ask, hey, are you an A.A. member or a Southern Cross, and then you've got to pay. No, Dan just walked out free. Because I thought it was so good. They were like, we've got nothing for you here. you don't need to be here. Off you go.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Go get yourself a happy meal. Dan's been saying this for years and years and years. I mean, it might happen different ways, but the standing ovation is what I want to zero in on. But these two people are standing ovation? I don't think so. I think you need at least four people to call it a standing ovation. So our show is nothing if it's not petty.
Starting point is 00:27:58 And I don't need to go and pay for an eye test. I had like laser eye surgery. My eyes have better than 2020 vision. No need to go. But I'm like... Do you though? I don't think they would give you a standing ovation unless it was 40-40.
Starting point is 00:28:13 Turns out, after I went and did my high test and looked at the blinking light and is it clearer now or clearer now and this is one and this is two and they do all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Yeah, it left all right. She said to me, yeah, you're bang in the middle, you're not short-sighted and you're not long-sided, you're right in the middle, perfectly fine. She's like, eyes are super healthy.
Starting point is 00:28:36 Why did you come here? and I said, well, for one reason when she said, is there anything else I can help me with? I said, yes, there is. And I put the question to her to find out if they have... You went to the source? Or continue to do what Dan has said
Starting point is 00:28:49 they do at Speck Savers. One question, a friend of mine and I went with, he told me that he read the bottom line once and people in Specsavers stood up and gave him a standing ovation. And I told him that's completely... That's not something he goes to do, is it? No. No, I've never done it.
Starting point is 00:29:05 No, I've never heard of it. You've never heard of other specs ever branches doing standing ovations? Yeah, okay good. Thank you so much. You're my, Daniel. Can I just have one side point before you continue? Why is that whenever he speaks to a female, he always sounds like he's flirting with her?
Starting point is 00:29:25 Sexism, that's what it is. And I'll say this. Yeah, it does piss me off in a way, Ash, but let's not zero in on that. Yeah, sorry, sorry. What I want to focus on is the fact that she's obviously not a team player. She's dogging the rest of the Speck Savers' boys. Now, dog in the blees.
Starting point is 00:29:39 She said, she's never done it. No brunch that she, as a, whereof, has ever done it. And she's been working there a very long time. Maybe they stopped it after I went in. They were like, we can't give any more standing ovations. We've experienced perfection at the eye game. And every other standing ovation now will be. All I can say is that is my experience.
Starting point is 00:29:57 Why would I make it up? And I will say that my wife Hannah went into another place, OPSM, which is a different company. And she read perfectly. And the lady, it was just one lady, she stood up off. her chair and clap. No, when I did my test, the lady was sitting and I was sitting.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Maybe when the test is over, they have to stand up to let you out of the room and you misinterpreted her movement. So maybe you were reading just wasn't perfect. Oh, maybe you stumbled. Notice how he didn't include his read
Starting point is 00:30:23 in the audio. Didn't need to. I don't know. You don't need to. I just rattled through it, Z-D-F-H. I reckon you went H-T-V, is that a V? Y, X-T-E. And then he looked over and he going to winked
Starting point is 00:30:35 and he went, that was perfect, babe. Yeah. You can put your shirt back on. He's just flirt, exactly. Flirting his way through the medical system. Okay, let's talk New Zealand urban legends. They don't give your standing ovation of read the bottom line at Speck Sabers.
Starting point is 00:30:49 No, no, anymore. Good or bad urban legends. What have you heard happens around the country that most people don't know about that? You go, hey, have you heard, if you go to this store on this day, you talk to Tanya? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Yeah, or just anything, really. In your town. That used to happen, maybe still happens, and nobody believes you. We'll at least hear you out. Maybe there's like a bakery you go and you order a certain tart and they give you a pie free or something. Or like an off-menu thing that only you have to ask for the off-menu.
Starting point is 00:31:18 Or if you go to a certain part-as. Oh, like when you go to can'tina and you ask Nick if he does sweet and sour pork. It's called canting. Oh, sorry, Kenting, yeah. Yeah. You're not supposed to tell people that he made you a sweet and sour pork. Yeah, but he did for me. We went to a fancy, fancy-ass restaurant, the Chinese-inspired restaurant.
Starting point is 00:31:35 There's like 10 of us. Michelle there from Tohanga, I look out, like, Queen. I want to impress her. Yeah, that's right. And Dickhead over here asks the, not just the executive chef, but the owner and executive chef of a chain of fancy restaurants if they have sweet and sour pork on the menu. I want to die of shame.
Starting point is 00:31:52 Not a minute, because he was flirting with the guy, 20 minutes later, old man, Nick comes out with a blade of sweet and sour pork that he whipped up from scratch. Kind of his shirt off. Delicious. He rubbed it on his nipples and then licked off the sauce. We're talking New Zealand urban legends
Starting point is 00:32:09 Dan still says that if you read the bottom line at Specsavers they'll stand up Give you a standing ovation If you were able to do it I went and asked them I went and did an I test Just to ask them
Starting point is 00:32:19 They said no They have never done that And they don't know of any other branches Of Specsavers that have ever done that So I think Dan might have misread The situation there Maybe they just don't do it anymore I don't know
Starting point is 00:32:30 But I just can speak on my experience And it happened Okay But we're wanting to know your urban myths. Yeah, from your town, your area. Yeah, maybe it could just be like a New Zealand-wide urban myth that you've heard. Tim reckons, he's heard when you go to Hamilton, you leave with chlamydia.
Starting point is 00:32:47 Oh, now that's sad. How rude. And do you know what? Hamilton was the Climidia capital of New Zealand. Not anymore, though. For a long, long time. But they, like, for a number of years. But they haven't had it for, I think, at least half a decade.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Last I heard it was Farangere. I thought it was Wellington. I'm going to Google it. Either of. around. I have actually heard this one about a big cat or a panther. Oh, the Canterbury panther. Yes.
Starting point is 00:33:11 Now, there is photographic evidence, which I have seen, but it's from far away. It always is. You know, so it could just be a big, like a decent-sized cat. Yeah, well, we are going to Christchurch. Yeah. And I will be venturing out and about. Up, down, around. I always wanted to do some sort of documentary, like a Peg Gower style, has her shoes and find that cat.
Starting point is 00:33:33 Apologies to Wellington and also Fangare You are not the Chlamydia capital The highest rates of chlamydia Are in Gisbon, Rotorua and the Hawks Bay Okay Adam's heard the urban myth He's text through saying When you hold down the door closed button
Starting point is 00:33:48 On a lift It will skip all floors Before it gets to your floor Oh, don't mind that I wish We should try that because I've heard that urban myth before What so you push your floor And just keep your finger on it the whole time
Starting point is 00:34:00 He pushed the floor, according to him, you push the floor and then hold the closed door sign for the entirety of the journey. And it will skip floors until it gets to yours. It's a feature that's built into a list for like emergency services. Like paramedics. If it's built for that, don't be using it. No, we shouldn't be using it. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:34:18 You're going to use it because you'd have to share a lift with someone who might have germs. But I am scared of lifts. I have all my nightmares about lifts, so I don't want to mess with the lifts. That's so weird. One of my bucket list things is to be stuck in a lift. What? It's never happened to me And I think it
Starting point is 00:34:31 I don't know You don't know who And you find out some For no more I reckon than about 30 minutes And then after that I'd have it I'd close to have a big panic attack In my nightmares
Starting point is 00:34:39 Let's say the building is like 30 levels tall I get in the lift And it starts to go above 30 It goes like 30 40 50 60 And I'm like oh my God And it's I would say 95% of my bad dreams
Starting point is 00:34:51 Are all about left You've watched Willie Wonka Yeah I was gonna say As a kid of Mr left Quite impression Yeah Mark you've heard an urban myth
Starting point is 00:34:58 You're from Tooronger morning Mark I was Mark Oh hey how's going Matt here Oh Matt Sorry Matt Here's Mark
Starting point is 00:35:08 Yeah now here Matt Now Matt from Hamilton East There's a little bit of an urban myth Yeah Yeah So back in the days
Starting point is 00:35:18 When you're over broke From being out in town A weekend On a Wednesday You'd be able to go into Subway in Hamilton East And get a footlong sub And a drink
Starting point is 00:35:27 And then get a full free foot long sub. So you got dinner and breakfast or dinner and lunch all in one. So you get a sub and a drink and it's like a buy one, get one free deal from Hamilton East on a Wednesday night? Oh, on a Wednesday, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:42 It was about 10 years ago. I used to go every week because you a bit broke on a Wednesday before payday on Thursday, so it was bloody good. Yeah, that wasn't advertised. So I never knew if it was real or not, but I was getting it, so I thought,
Starting point is 00:35:54 quite a play day. And how many times did you catch Clemetti while you're there? I'll vote to close that At least once then Short on you Good work, Maddie Thanks Matt
Starting point is 00:36:07 Someone else is text through saying Dancing with the Stars was rigged Clint should have won That's from a Christine Randall That's an urban man I won't let that go That was rigged You know the amount of people I knew
Starting point is 00:36:19 Who are voting for you It has to be rigged One day or year Manu Wata bye Oh he was definitely better His footwork was outstanding Not as good as Robert Irwin's, though. Oh, my God.

Normally they start getting goodbye about week 5 or 6. He's brilliant. He's like week 10 in week 2. He takes his shirt off as well for all the girls with soon.

Starting point is 00:37:27 We're massive fans of New Zealand today you can go right back to the start and you should if you haven't on three now but also Netflix is now picking up your show so about you. Bro, that's an honour, you know, that's the gold standard and kind of television so to be able to... The funny thing is I'm here to promote a show
Starting point is 00:37:43 that's on 3, TV3 and I'm like, I can't be able to start talking about Netflix but anyway I love Netflix I love TV 3, shout out to both of them the early seasons are on Netflix and then the latest season, the stuff that no one's seen before that's on 3 now, which a hell of a website, Howl of a website, please don't fire me, please don't fire me.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Oh, it's seamless, isn't it? Not clunky at all. The issue you tackled in one of the earlier seasons of New Zealand today, which I guess it affected less people, but in a wee way, I guess, it really touched all of us, was Karen and her 20 wax. Hello, this is Karen. Don't belly back.
Starting point is 00:38:18 Ash was hearing this for the first time. She really ramps up the angst towards the end. Karen, you've seen me. I'll get my 20 bucks. Well, she's going to get 20 whacks. 20 f***s. Not my fault, your daughter's all that. Okay?
Starting point is 00:38:35 Not my phone. I want my fucking money. Oh, she's iconic. There's nothing more New Zealand than Karen. Every man in the studio was just mouthing along with that word for word as if it was from the Godfather. It's very deep. That is the New Zealand Godfather right there, I think. That is it.
Starting point is 00:38:48 And you managed to track her down, didn't you, many years ago. It's the proudest achievement of my career. It's one of the greatest things I've ever done, like listening to Karen, tell her story. because she's the most charismatic, amazing person. She, um, yes. Does she say the same about you, would you say? Uh, I hope so. What's going on here?
Starting point is 00:39:05 That's time for a reunion. What's going on here? Morning. Karen, it's us from the edge again. Morning, babe. Morning. Yeah, I do have someone owes me money, actually. Of course you're planning to do it.
Starting point is 00:39:18 It's your whole brand. We thought we could put you in touch with Guy who can maybe help get the money back. Yeah, well, it's a corrupt New Zealand company called Kiwi-owned, and they owe me. $840. Oh, that's a lot of wax. And I've been waiting for the refunds since the 20th of December
Starting point is 00:39:35 2024. Wow. We need another episode of New Zealand today to get back. A Karen reunion. Karen, it's Guy Williams here. Nice to talk to you again, mate. Yeah. I still ever got my money from that. Here we own.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Karen. Look, we've really gone off track. have we? I feel in the chat. I think this is all brand. This is. Bang on the track. Karen, I was just telling you, I was just telling New Zealand you're the loveliest person in the world and you're like, swearing on radio and stuff. Kesa, I haven't spoken to you in ages, probably since we've done the podcast and, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:40:14 can I just say, I'm sorry, I missed your birthday the other day. Happy birthday. Oh, thank you very much, Guy. It's been. A whole grand total of a young 67 a year. Oh, you don't look at a day over. Good on you, Kaz. Karen, you're adorable.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Have you watched the new season of New Zealand tomorrow? What do you think of my show in Waimata? Have you seen it? No, I haven't. What? I've got it recorded. Yeah, I've got Sky, so I record and then I watch my leisure. That's wretch, yes.
Starting point is 00:40:44 She watches when she wants to. She doesn't let some network. That's exactly what. It's only a whole three now lets you do it as well. Karen, before you go, I've got a friend. His name's Chris. He owes me $60 for dinner a year ago. Can you record a message?
Starting point is 00:40:56 him say he owes me the money or he'll get 60 whacks Hello this is Karen and this is a message for Chris Yes you Chris

Starting point is 00:41:21 60 Wax Yes you Karen Karen, there is a poking machine that probably needs to be played, so we'll let you go. All right, guys, great talking to you. Guy, thank you so much for coming in. Looking forward to seeing who the jewel is in the crown of this latest season, if Karen was season one.
Starting point is 00:41:40 Cool, check it out. Three now. Clint, Megan Dan. What did Leonardo, the guy who cleans couches, came and cleaned our couch. Da Vinci. What did he find in a couch? Can I say something? The whole time that we've had this on our run sheet and discussing it,
Starting point is 00:41:55 I must have been just scrolling Instagram while you were talking about. Sounds like you. Yeah, yeah. I legitimately thought that this was a story that Leonardo DiCaprio told about like he was cleaning his cat. And I remember thinking, well, would Leonardo de Capribe be cleaning his own couch? Now I'm just finding out that Leonardo is a couch. Does he vacuum couches? Yeah, he does the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:42:14 He used to be called Leonardo de Vacrio. I don't know. No, don't. That's not worth of standing ovation producers. Set down. I'm going home. I'm finished for the day. Clint Migg and Dan.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Gossip of entertainment. Clint Miggins Dan with Ash London. And look, unforgettable music experiences with Westpac. Just search Westpac rewards for all the info. Cheers, Wispack. Season 7 of the Kardashians is coming. I love this show. There are many reasons I love the Kardashians,
Starting point is 00:42:49 but the main one, this is going to be weird because usually you're watching like a vacuous, disgusting, waste of money. For some reason, it makes me feel like inspired to be rich. Yeah. Like, it makes me be like, I'm going to be an entrepreneur. I mean, I'm not. I'm never going to do it because I'm lazy.
Starting point is 00:43:05 But I don't know, they're so rich in their life. It's so like, wow, that I'm like, man, I should be rich. You know what? Here's a little interesting fact. I've never watched an episode of it. I couldn't tell you what it's about. Like, I know it's about the Kardashians. It's so well done and so well edited.
Starting point is 00:43:20 And they all play it so well that even if you don't give a crap about them, even if you hate them, you'll hate watch it. Geez, if there's an interesting fact, please don't tell us a non-interesting one. I was scraping the barrel clip. Well, the season 7 trailer has dropped, and there's lots of bombshells in there, as always, Courtney's fighting with the rest of the sisters because she's a punish. But this was the bit that really piqued my interest. This is Kim Kardashian talking about quite a serious threat.
Starting point is 00:43:44 I got a call from investigators. Someone extremely close to me put a head out on my life. Everybody's kind of on edge. I heard footsteps. walking into my room. I am terrified out of my mind. I'm happy it's over. I mean the drama.
Starting point is 00:44:02 Really? We've all had a home intruder. And then Kanye West then came outside. I'm like, she's accusing me, and she's not accusing him. I would imagine that, as always with these trailers, you're like, ooh, someone's put a hit out on her, but then really it's like, I can't even, it's something crap. Yeah, like I'm going to take down skims because someone else was launching a line just like it.
Starting point is 00:44:22 They've gone and embellished it. Yes. Will I be watching every second of the new season? You better believe I will. I'd love to know how much they get paid because they're literally just living their life, aren't they? There's a cameraman following them around. Yes, but I think now that this is the Kardashians,
Starting point is 00:44:39 like they are the producers of it, they own it. So I would imagine they're getting cuts from all of the distributors and all that kind of. Even endorsement deals, social media stuff. I think it would be sickening how much money those guys are making. It would piss me off. I would love to know just what's in there. everyday account, just a like spending account.
Starting point is 00:44:55 Yeah, any zero, zero. Nobody has guessed it. 3343 on text. What do you think? Leonardo, the couch cleaner, came into my house, said as the craziest thing he's ever found in a couch. Because I said to him, oh, sorry about the state of this. And he was like, oh, mate, this is nothing.
Starting point is 00:45:12 And when you say in a couch, like, he's pulled the pillows off and there's been something like buried in the side. Yeah, I guess, like, you know, things get stuck down, like inside the couch or in behind, like some of them have quite a cavity. what is the craziest thing Leonardo has ever removed from a couch 3343 anyone that gets it first one that gets it I'll give you a double pass
Starting point is 00:45:29 so I must see movie I see you Clint Meg and Dan Oh my gosh Life of a Showgirl is out tomorrow We're doing quiz nights around the country We're going to be at Christchurch Doing one tonight Which will be a bit of fun

Starting point is 00:45:51 cleaned because we went to that thing where we washed the cushions thinking our couch was fine and then we put the cushions back on the couch we're like Jesus how dirty is the couch? I've had to take one on my because we had streamers out for Buddy's birthday and the blue ink hopefully the landlord's not listening
Starting point is 00:46:07 went on to the beautiful King Furniture couch cream coloured so I've taken one of the couch cushions to get dry clean but the same thing's going to happen now it's going to come back and it's going to be like sparkling clean. $700 $700 is how much it costs
Starting point is 00:46:21 to clean the couch. Really? You could buy a new couch for that. Did he quote you before he did it? It was like 580 plus just, plus a little extra for repairing a little tear in it. How big is your couch? No, it's just like a, like three sections
Starting point is 00:46:36 that pushed together. A modular? Yeah, modular like three sections. Leonardo de Vacrio is. Yeah. He needs to call it that. Yeah, so hashtag not spawn. But his name is Leonardo, a lovely guy.
Starting point is 00:46:49 And when I said to him, look, oh, sorry, about the state of the couch because we thought it was rather dirty. He was like, mate, this is nothing. I've cleaned some disgusting couches. And he told me about something he found inside a couch and I was like, you have to be kidding. People are texting dirty nappy,
Starting point is 00:47:06 a Rolex watch, how good would that be? It must be nice. A lot of different, an air friar. An air friar. Or a teddy mag? Teddy mag, no. That's orkeys. That's possible.
Starting point is 00:47:18 He's like, what would Clint keep at his couch? Somebody has guessed it A mummified skeleton Of a dead cat How? Which means the cat has gone into the couch Got stuck, died The family have gone
Starting point is 00:47:35 We've lost our cat, we've lost our cat Or they've gone away on holiday, God knows And then they've just never found him And then when he was cleaning the couch He found their dead cat inside the couch That's horrific That is one of the worst stories I've ever heard truly, I mean, I'm not a cat person,
Starting point is 00:47:50 so it's a little bit funny to me. Dan looks like he's about to start crying. Yeah, it's like you go away and hold it. Like, I don't know. Like, I don't understand how you couldn't. The smell. The smell is what I'm thinking. Well, the thing is a cat, knowing a cat,
Starting point is 00:48:02 if it was trapped in there, it would have meow and, like, make a hell of a noise. So they must have been away. Oh, yuck, yeah, yeah, yeah. That poor thing. Are you sure Leonardo de Vacrio is telling you the truth? Yeah, like, he was like, oh, yeah, one time, like, he just, like, threw it out there,
Starting point is 00:48:13 and I had more questions about we were walking out the door, and I was like, that is, how does that, and like, unless it was one of those, maybe it's one of those ones where people move out, tenants move out and whatever, and they've lost their care, and then it's a couple of three weeks before they have a new tenant. I am dubious because he would have been at Clint's house.
Starting point is 00:48:31 He would have had to make conversation for like 14 hours while he cleaned Clint's huge couch. And while Clint just talked at him. Yeah, true. Michelle, you called it. I don't know if it's because you have experience in something similar. Have you had Leonardo DeVacrio do? your couch.
Starting point is 00:48:48 No, no, no. I was doomscrolling in the TV one day and saw an episode of hoarders and actually saw the lady pull the skeleton of a cat out of this lady's house. And I just thought, I didn't stay on the channel, that's for sure.
Starting point is 00:49:07 I wonder then if Leonardo's making crap up just to have conversation then. It's possible. You know, he's seen the same episode that Michelle has. Also, maybe because there's a clean freak, he likes the hoarder's probably. He's seen it himself. Hey, well, here's some synergy.
Starting point is 00:49:22 We've got a double pass, Michelle, because you guessed it, too. One Battle After Another, starring Leonardo DiCaprio. Awesome. Thanks, guys. You're welcome, mate. Love it. I'd love to know. What did you find?
Starting point is 00:49:33 Where? Yeah. Well, you're just like, how the hell did that get there? Or, like, you find a Rolex watch or something. Oh, my God. Well, just what did you find? Where did you find it? I love these stories, because it could be like,
Starting point is 00:49:44 oh amazing or it could be that's disgusting there's so many ways to interpret it like a role of money I dream and then you go are we playing finders keepers here oh it's always find his keepers
Starting point is 00:49:55 losers weepers what did you find where Leonardo was clean in my couch said he found a mummified cat skeleton inside somebody's couch so obviously got stuck there and died horrific my car was stolen once ash
Starting point is 00:50:08 I've told this to Clint before and the police found it in Hamilton was stolen from Auckland and when they brought brought it back to me, there was a pair of men's undies. That weren't mine. Now, you know me. Oh, that's an elaborate story for having a dude in your car
Starting point is 00:50:22 and your wife finding out. Paying someone to steal the car, tipping off the cops to find it, bring it back. No, I've got the case number from the police, babe, honestly. That's bad. It's one, two, three. Okay. Caitlin, morning.
Starting point is 00:50:39 What did you find where? So not me, but my grandfather. He had this old set of drawers that he wasn't using. And he decided to put it on the side of the street to get rid of it. And my auntie decided to check the drawers to make sure there wasn't anything important. And she pulled out one of the drawers and flipped it over and found a grand tape underneath it. A thousand bucks in cash. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:05 One grand. Wow. That is good when you find money. Yes. But I love how old people hide cash. Do you know my parents in life? I just found this out recently. You know, some people would hide cash
Starting point is 00:51:17 where rainy down in the freezer or just in case the banks shut down. They bury it in their backyard. They've got cash buried in their backyard. I thought that was just a rumor that people did. Hey, Kaelin, while you're here because it'd be such a shame to miss the opportunity, can you say dog fights?
Starting point is 00:51:32 Dogfights? It's not as good as... When Alice did in her South African accent, dogfarts. It's more like dog farts. You heard dog farts. Maybe it's different parts. Dog farting.
Starting point is 00:51:45 Yeah, yeah, yeah. You've been in New Zealand too long. You've lost your accent. I'm not being that long. You've got to be nice. Thanks, Caitlin. What else have you got here? Someone bought a car imported from Singapore
Starting point is 00:51:58 and they found a $100 casino chip under the seat. The problem is you'd have to go back to cash that, right? You couldn't just... That's true. I didn't know you could even gamble in Singapore. I thought that was illegal in Singapore. Is it?
Starting point is 00:52:11 When I was moving in I found in the basement a bar with cuffs on either end hanging from the ceiling Another person's been to Clint's house I wonder with the rest of that text It starts getting a bit grim Well I mean maybe I mean each centre of only one has fun in different ways
Starting point is 00:52:29 They went into Clint's red room Yeah Someone else found a bag of weed in their parents' couch That's amazing That's the first time I ever saw a joint Was in my auntie's car, she's kill and I remember just staring at it being like I know that's naughty I know
Starting point is 00:52:44 and I was like do I tell my mum and I held onto that secret for so long and then eventually when I was the older I told my mum and she said yeah everyone knows she smokes weed I was like oh god it's crazy it must be crazy finding your parents stash you know like knowing that your parents
Starting point is 00:52:58 if you didn't know knowing that they would do it anything of your parents like drugs sex related like realizing that they're normal human beings with needs and wants like the rest of us is so gross what do you think just did when she found to her boyfriend's
Starting point is 00:53:11 Burn a phone in his bedside drawer. Oh, I'd say not stayed with him. Yeah, she had a good look through it and he is now the X. He's like, it's rough. All right, Dan's Google History

She said a piece of furniture, what was your answer for that? And then we had a word ending in R which we didn't quite answer. Then you would have got nine. We were just about the air.

Starting point is 00:56:01 All right, back again at 3 o'clock this afternoon with the Adjavas. Your chance to play for a grand in the hand. Next, let's see if we learn anything going through Dan Google history from the past a week. Dan thinks it, does know the answer? He Googles it. Yeah. I use it more than my brain.
Starting point is 00:56:18 Hey, better be so. Clint, Megan, Dan. Once a week, we go through Dan's Google history. What's in Dan's Google History? Isn't sexy, isn't weird? Well, it's all a great big mystery. Or just something you would feel.
Starting point is 00:56:35 I think of it as a cleanse. I love it when Ash and Meg go through my Google history. Good on you. You know? It makes me to do. sort of stand by what I Google. Good on you. But that's because they don't have access to your incognito mode. I don't even know how to do
Starting point is 00:56:46 that. The first... It is the Pinocchio knows. I don't know how to do it. The first one is worrying because we are flying to Christchurch today and we're sitting next to each other. I'm in 1A on Jetty and you're on 1B. Yes. And you have Googled is it illegal to kiss on a plane
Starting point is 00:57:02 and you follow that up with is Mile High Club illegal? Hmm. No, now that is... No, I will not have sex with you on the plane. Okay, bugger. No, I don't know. No, that is because early, I can explain, because earlier this week there was a news story
Starting point is 00:57:17 about a couple that had been charged for kissing on a plane. New Zealand domestic flight from Auckland to Nelson. That was heavy fondling. Yeah, but I was just... It wasn't the cuddling. Yeah, and then we read into it and there was fondling. But I just wanted to Google if it was, in fact, illegal. And it is, if the airline says it is.
Starting point is 00:57:33 Okay. So if you, if they're in the terms and conditions, the New Zealand says no kissing, it is a form of illegal. Do you know, the reason? there is a private airline and you can rent a small plane and take you up and it's a bed and rose pedals and you can
Starting point is 00:57:46 be in the Malahe Club. I always think that must be awkward for the pilots on those private jets that are like flying the plane and they're like oh god buddy Paris Hilton's in the back there. Someone who's like, oh! Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:57 I wonder if it feels different when you're at altitude. Yeah, maybe it's more fun up there. Yeah. I would feel, I think it would feel different but although it's a precious. Because I find whenever I watch movies on a plane, I get way more emotional. I cried watching that wrestling movie, like wrestling with my family or whatever.
Starting point is 00:58:16 That's a stinker of a film. Yeah, and I was crying. I was like, it must be the old... Maybe you'd cry like the guy in the truth booth. Oh, no. I don't think if it was a private jet, then they're a little bit smaller. I would be worried about moving around too much, you know, because you don't want to break a wing off or something.
Starting point is 00:58:32 I think some girls like that. Really? Moving around a bit. I know. But in a plane, it would be risky, you would think. Oh, okay. Next up, how much money to sing the national anthem and then how to sing a national anthem at a sporting event.
Starting point is 00:58:45 How much do you, did you get any tips? Yeah, are you hoping to do it one day? A lot of the time people get paid for it because I was wanting to know how, I thought it would be a cool thing for us to do as a show to try and somehow work our way up to a big to singing the national anthem, even if it was a super rugby game or something like that.
Starting point is 00:59:01 It would be cool. I know when only Clark did it earlier this week. Like a spot Anthem edition. Oh my God, imagine that. Where would we come in the New Zealand now? National Anthem. We would be the like hit the spot bit. How about this one? Probably God defend New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:59:15 How to know if cat is gay and then can cats be gay? I've never seen my cat with a woman. You've thought your cat's gay for a long time. Hannah and I have our suspicions. And you know what? If he swings that way, that's fine. I mean I don't know. Does your cat do any doggy stuff?
Starting point is 00:59:34 No. I've never witnessed some flirting. I've never seen. Like whenever there's a girl cat that lives next door and they're always hissing at each other. I don't think he likes it. Is he romantic with boy cats? He used to have a friend that was a guy. Yeah. And they used to like butt heads together.
Starting point is 00:59:48 That doesn't mean that. But that's the only time I've seen him even close to a cat. I don't know the cat. What about female humans? Does he love you more than Hannah? No, he hates me, to be honest. But I think he's just... But that's because you put his head in your mouth.
Starting point is 01:00:03 Yeah, to smell his breath, you weirdo. I think I'm too keen. You're the gay one. He's trying to be able to wear with the cat. Dan's like, it's like, it's my cat, gay, please, please, please, please. Now think about what you're saying there, Clint. It's actually quite bad, okay?
Starting point is 01:00:18 So, absolutely not. That one, that search I did do in incognito mode. Listen, Dan's new story. It's as sexy, isn't weird. Well, it's all a great big mystery. We're just thinking it would be. We're joking. We're last today.
Starting point is 01:00:37 Clint, Meg and Dan. I've never met a bad. who fell in the blank Andy was a great one last week because I was racking my brains all week my cousin's brother-in-law is called Andy he literally got one of those medals from the government for being a brave hero
Starting point is 01:00:51 yeah do you know what I will say you've got to be careful because you almost don't want your name thrown out in the segment because we'll be like oh I've never met a bad Dan and you go that's nice but then we give people the chance to veto it and all these stories come out of the woodwork about horrific Daniels or we're each going to throw out a name and if I may I'm going to throw out
Starting point is 01:01:07 the first one and it's going to be a risk Clint, because I'm going on what you've just said. Someone's text this through as well. My son's name. Oh, Georgie. George. I've never met a bad George, Danielle, text through, yeah. The reason we named my beautiful son, George,
Starting point is 01:01:21 is because of that exact thing. Every George I know has been an amazing person. How many Georges do you know? Two. George of the jungle? Well, no, he's just an added bonus. The Prince George. Prince George.
Starting point is 01:01:34 He's lovely. He's going to be the king one day. I know George Adamson. He lives in England now. one of a good friend of mine. George Michael. George Michael, lovely guy. R-I-P. Great musician. George Clooney.
Starting point is 01:01:45 Great. Is his name George? Oh my God, that's... Okay, I'm having an out-of-body experience at the moment. George Russell, Formula One drive. You know him as George Clooney, but the fact that his name is just George. Yes. Does that make sense to you?
Starting point is 01:02:00 Yeah. Like his friends who say, hey, George. I actually had to think about it was like, is it George Clooney? I just done that. Yeah, it's George Clooney. Wow. Does that make him hotter in your opinion, Ash? Yes, I love the name George, but what about George Bosch?
Starting point is 01:02:11 Oh, two wars between the senior and the junior. Yeah, but George Bush now looks amazing next to Donald Trump. Yeah, you're absolutely right. Yeah. And he's friends with Obama, like, despite the politics. What's got SA'd by a George? Okay, don't say that. Anyway, let's move on.
Starting point is 01:02:25 Oh, sorry, I don't know what that was. Yeah, it's okay. That's okay. You didn't know, darling. Oh, okay. Not a great name, though, in that particular instance. I was like South Africa, any mind. Someone says, I've never met a bad Gabby?
Starting point is 01:02:37 Gabby, Gabby. Oh, my friend Gabby Pizzinger, and I'll say her last name because she's the greatest person in the world. Pizzinger, and I'll have a surname. Now I'm thinking about it, I don't know a bad Gabby. Gabby's dollhouse, that show on Netflix. Do we include Gabrielle's or is it just Gabby's? Okay, so not extensions of the name. No.
Starting point is 01:02:57 Okay, never met a bad Gabby. So so far, George. Gabby, we need one more. Yes. One more that we're going to thrive then. Then we give you one song to call up and veto it. What about a Sandy? Oh, Sandy.
Starting point is 01:03:10 Sandy. Yeah. Someone has sexing and never met bad Steve? Steve's at all. No, no, no, no. Steve's, oh my goodness me. I know at least two bad steves. Oh, really?
Starting point is 01:03:19 Yeah. So, we're not going to do a Steve. Emma? Emma. Oh, I only know great Emmas. Yeah? I know a couple of nice emmers. And there's a couple of emmers that work at the edge as well.
Starting point is 01:03:30 Okay. Emma. Gabby, Emma and George. Yeah, okay. All right. Vito time. You got two minutes in 15. 65 seconds if you've got a story as to why we can't officially say we have never met a bad
Starting point is 01:03:44 George, Gabby or Emma. We've already had a Gabby be thrown under the bus. Oh, no. It's not good for Gabby. Oh no. Wow, she did what? Clint Megadendan. Lesh, go.
Starting point is 01:03:57 I've never met a bad Emma. George. And Gabby. Yeah, that's to Gabby Pissinger, our mate. Yeah, and now we've given you three minutes to veto the names. And if nobody did, then great. We can say, all right, it's official. They will join Andy on the I Never Met a Bad list.
Starting point is 01:04:18 Unfortunately, Emmer's, you did not stand a chance. Yeah. And to be honest, I wonder whether we're going to have our first clean sweep of no-one's got through as a good person. Well, we go to the voice disguiser. One, two, please, Dad. Oh, you know it's going to be good. Okay, good morning, Anonymous. You're on the voice disguiser.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Hello. Hello. Good morning. So you're saying that there is a bad Gabby out there. Why are we throwing Gabby under the bus? Gabby's been cheating on her partner for a while. Oh. And is Gabby still together with the partner that thinks she's not cheating?
Starting point is 01:04:55 Yes. How did you find out? My partner is friends with a guy who was sleeping with it. Oh my God. Okay, so you have it on good on. authority. Very good authority. That's secondhand information, which is better than third hand.
Starting point is 01:05:12 Now, this makes me think that all the nice Gabby's we know have got some dark secrets, some skeletons. Very, very well anonymous. Thank you very much. Hey, thank you. We then go to Aiden. Morning Aiden. I don't think Aiden needs to be disguised. Okay, we've taken you off the voice disguised.
Starting point is 01:05:28 Now, very much, we can hear what you're saying. That's always good. Oh, that's not good. I have a distinctive air's voice. Yes. I don't even think the voice disguised it. Okay, who you're throwing under the bus Aiden? Oh, well, Emma.
Starting point is 01:05:46 I used to go to a school with a chick named Emma and bark, oh. Oh, okay. She used to just sleep around with everyone, and now, yeah, she's a crackhead. Oh, okay, don't keep... I wish we'd never gone to Aiden there. Oh, Aiden wanted to join in on the combo. This is the last time we're going to be doing this. I think...
Starting point is 01:06:06 I mean, I will say that. You know what? I love nothing wrong with Sleepabout if that's what you want to. Nothing wrong with that. No, I like the listeners feel comfortable enough that they can just converse with us how they normally would. But we appreciate it when they censor themselves. Now, we do have an Emma on the line. How do you feel about that last call, Emma?
Starting point is 01:06:24 I'm the complete opposite. Yeah, I was a bit shocked. Yeah. What's the opposite of a crackhead? No, she's saying she didn't, she wasn't doing the cheating. I think the opposites happen to her. No, she's been cheated on. Oh, right.
Starting point is 01:06:41 Got you M, baby girl, I've got you. But you're dobbing in a George. I am dropping in a George. Oh, Emma's like, don't worry about me. Let's talk about George. What's wrong with George? So when I was just out of high school, I was with a George who ended up sleeping with my boss
Starting point is 01:07:00 and one of my really good friends. Okay, or double weather. And I didn't find out until after we'd split up. Emma, is that better or worse? What, to find out after? Yeah. Worst, like it was like a year and a half after. Because you feel like an idiot.
Starting point is 01:07:18 You do, yeah. You'd feel like. Oh, 100%. Yeah. And did you dump him? What did he dump you? Um, it was kind of a mutual thing. Okay, good.
Starting point is 01:07:26 But you want to be the one who dumped it. That's the thing. Just so you dumped him. If you found out that he cheated on, you want to be like, no, I want to go back and I want to dump his ass. Yeah. Well, thank you, Emma. And that means that we've had a call. for each name, a Gabby, a George and and Emma.
Starting point is 01:07:40 Yeah, and we hate them all. No one's gone through. Yeah, it's just Andy. Andy Solo on the mountain of no one, never met a bad. Yeah, there's a lot coming through. Emma's a rude, absolutely not Emma. George's a deceitful and sleep with other people. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:55 I'm sure you're George. He's fine. Grow up with fantastic morals of anything like his old man. Yeah. Although I'd say if we collate all the results, Gabby's come out as the, you know, cleanness. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:08 Really? Yeah. There's not many, but still a few. Okay. Oh, I think we'll be doing that one again. So say goodbye to everyone's newest favorite scene. We definitely won't be taking Aiden again, for sure. Clint, Megan, Dan.
Starting point is 01:08:21 We are on our way to Christchurch after the show today, and the whole trip's really been inspired by a young listener of the show, Jaden, who called through to producer Carl once and just really jeered us up about how much he loves the show. Hi, Clint Ash and Dan. I'm really excited to seeing you when you come to Christchurch and thank you all for the birthday messages. I love you.
Starting point is 01:08:45 Yeah, we love Jaden. Jaden's mum was so proud when she found out that he had picked up the phone of his own volition to call us. Jaden is autistic. He loves football. He loves the edge. And it's been such a pleasure to become mates with his mom and to kind of like through the radio show
Starting point is 01:09:03 become mates with Jaden as well. And he thought we were coming in fair. because of course the whole team's going to be there for Electric Ave. What he didn't realize is we decided to plan a special trip to go down specifically to see Jaden and then we called him after the show yesterday to give him a bit of a heads up. What are you doing tomorrow?
Starting point is 01:09:19 What's your plans? Nothing. Well, this is good. Because otherwise, all the money that we've spent in booking flights to fly down to crush us tomorrow to come hang out with you would have been an absolute waste of time. We are coming on an aeroplane from Auckland
Starting point is 01:09:32 tomorrow morning just so that we can meet you in real life. What do you reckon about that, Jaden? Yeah, and not only will we meet you, but we're going to take you out for a fun day. Yeah, I think we've actually got a Mustang, a Ford Mustang, and we've got to pick him up in. And he was such a sweet that.
Starting point is 01:09:49 He was beaming at us when we were talking to him, and he'd keep looking back at his mum and, like, beaming like, is this real? And, you know, it didn't say much, but we'd get it. How are you all going to fit on the, because a Ford Mustang is like a two-door car. Well, you know, that seems like a bit of a lads, lads, lads. I'm happy to go behind with his mum in the edge car.
Starting point is 01:10:05 We'll follow. Yeah, it's going to be a fun. It's going to be a fun couple of days as well because not only we're going down to see Jaden but also tomorrow. I was going to say tonight we've got the quiz night. Yeah, tonight actually. We're busy couple days in Chitia.
Starting point is 01:10:17 The Loft Bar. So if you are there in Christchurch you've registered a table, we'll be hanging out with you tonight. We're going to do a bit of a sing-along while we're there as well at half time. I think we should start it on the plane or practice because everyone will be really happy with that. Everyone around us. You can start it.
Starting point is 01:10:31 Ash can start the signal log, okay, on the plane. That'll be fun. But yeah, then your work really starts tomorrow morning, Dan. o'clock. Dan is going to be doing a cash-strapped run again. Sitting in a V-shape. There's people behind me. Every move I make, the 150 people do the same move.
Starting point is 01:10:50 It could be anyone saying with a woman. He will give you the ick. He'll be wearing the helmet with the GoPro attached to the front. Yeah, I know. No one can pull that off. I reckon you can put that on Brad Pitt and he'd look like an idiot. Yeah, I think you're right. Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:04 So, yeah, 8 a.m. sharp. Dan is going to be the netball courts at Hagueley Park. He's going to be doing two races, doing a guy's race and a girl's race, and he's got $250 and a double pass to a sold-out electric Ave. How good. And I'm going to come at me. I'm going to say it right now. Don't go, like, don't, just off.
Starting point is 01:11:25 Just fully tackle me if you want. That's a spirit, babe. Do exactly. Just just die. He says that, but he doesn't want to use his own phone in the run in case it gets damaged. Well, there's a new iPhone. Yeah, I don't want to. damage my own.
Starting point is 01:11:38 He pays my body. I do whatever you want. Dan's also, because we'll be catching a lot of Uber's over the next 24 hours, he's been talking about Uber etiquette and what is the greatest thing to ask an Uber driver that they haven't heard before? Because I actually think, and I'd love to get an Uber driver on the phone next, I reckon most Uber drivers don't want to be spoken to. If they want to hear anything from you.
Starting point is 01:12:00 Yeah, but you need a couple of like settler questions when you first get in. Just say hi, be polite. Don't be an asshole and get in the back and don't say anything. but just say hi and then that's it. Yeah, I've got the foolproof method and I'll tell you about it when we're doing. Didn't you have a line? You said you had a question.
Starting point is 01:12:13 I'll tell you what the question was next and it's a perfect, perfect question. Okay. Off to Christchurch after the show today, probably catching a fair amount of Uber's over the next 24 hours, I would imagine. Yeah, an Uber etiquette is a thing that has been discussed a lot. We've discussed it on this show.
Starting point is 01:12:27 I think it's when you get into an Uber, I know especially myself, I get a little bit of anxiety around what you say to the Uber driver because you don't want to be rude. But if you like me, I don't want to have a conversation. Well, that feels rude to me because I've picked you up
Starting point is 01:12:45 and then you're just sitting silently in the back of their car. It's like not talking to the help. Yeah, but Clint, here's the thing. I think you need to learn that sometimes silence is fine. And sometimes being polite and talking to a person who's using their vehicle to drive you into your desk. They don't care. They don't care about anything you have to say.
Starting point is 01:13:03 They are driving people around all day, which means, I don't know, there are 20, 30 people in their car every day, many people asking them the same questions over and over again, which they then have to respond and be polite, so you give them a good rating. The classics are, when do you knock off today? Have you just kicked off or are you finishing up? How long have you been Uber? Well, that's why you've got to be creative, so they go,
Starting point is 01:13:23 oh, that's interesting, I've never been asked that before. And that's your job. Now, here's the thing. I'm glad you mentioned it. Because I think I have the perfect question that you can ask, and it shuts down the conversation from there. You look polite, you look like you're interested in their life But it shuts down the conversation
Starting point is 01:13:38 Here's the question I'm desperate to know what it is, Dahl Like a seriously looks You get into the car And you go, you say hi You get through that stuff Do you pretend that I'm the Uber driver And you're getting into my car
Starting point is 01:13:50 Okay, hi, hi, hi, is it Dan? Yes, it is. Yeah, good on, come on here How's your own good? Yeah, good, thanks, mate. You must hate talking to people God, you have people in your car all day, every day You must get sick of having conversations
Starting point is 01:14:01 Oh no, that's why I drive Uber's because I just love chatting to people about this new thing that I'm a part of. Do you know Jesus? No, well, okay, I'm just going to stop you there because I don't like talking to people. Oh, that's rude. Now that's it.
Starting point is 01:14:16 I've never had someone trying to sell Jesus or something to me, okay? I once had an Uber driver because I mentioned my child was sick try to sell me this product and then when he dropped me off my house, he said it's in my boot I can get it for you and you can give it to your child. I'm like, I'm not going to give my child
Starting point is 01:14:32 a lotion and potion from my mom. man that I just met in a car that's not a doctor? I feel like that's against the tis and seas of Uber. I agree. But I think you can be polite and say, God, you must be sick of talking to people. Here's a little gift for you. You don't need to talk to me.
Starting point is 01:14:44 What if he goes, no, actually, I kind of like this job because I meet people from all walks of life. And it's interesting finding... Well, they're not big gutter. That's Clint's dream. Do you know what I say when I get in? I go, hey, mate, how you going? Yeah, I don't really rude.
Starting point is 01:14:57 I've just got to listen to something for work. So is it okay if I just put my headphones in? Thank you so much. You're a legend. That's a good one. Was it right if I give you a one-star rating? No, they're relieved. They're like, great.
Starting point is 01:15:07 I don't have to talk to this person. I can listen to my music or my podcast. I'll talk to someone in my headphones. Conversation needs to be about 20% of the journey. One fifth of a bit of chat at the beginning. A little sprinkle through the middle, but not much, and then a little bit at the end before you get out. Someone suggested instead of saying hello or anything,
Starting point is 01:15:26 you get into the car that Uber driver says high and you just do some sign language in the rear vision mirror so they think that you can't hear them. What a cop out. So you pretend to be deaf? Oh, my God. And then also, you're singing on with the radio. Just to like, no.
Starting point is 01:15:41 Do you know Dan would be the guy that Uber's got the edge on, obviously? And Dan would be like, huh? Like the edge, do you? Do you listen to the morning show? You clearly do. I would have a thousand percent nightmare. He'd be like, oh, right. What do you think of that dang guy?
Starting point is 01:15:55 If they were listening to ZDM, I'd go, oh, you know what a better radio station is? Yeah. You're so much. I definitely wouldn't. Okay. Oh, guys, I'll do all the heavy lifting when we catch the overs around cross-church. I'll sit in the front and I'll, I'll converse while you guys... No, because we'll be, like, I can't...
Starting point is 01:16:12 I will be guilty by association. I say, I won't care. Yeah. I'll feel guilty that the driver's being subjected to this guy, yap, yap, yap, and that's what I'll feel guilty about. I think the driver will jump out of the car. Just commando roll out. Chew your ear off, Randall.
Starting point is 01:16:28 He'll just yeat himself out of the car. Holy shit. You made it the whole way through? If you want more, find them on Instagram at Edge Breakfast. See you tomorrow. And then if that's not enough, check out our only fans, podcast that is.
