Starting point is 00:00:29 Yeah. But you know, have you seen those Red Bull trolley derbies when they're go down the hill and there's all the straw and stuff down the side. You know the ones I mean? Sometimes, some of those things will have a wheel fall off, but they still kind of just kind of make their way just down the trend. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:47 They're like, oh, that was lucky. It's not, exactly. It was kind of like that. Like, we're walking off the back, trying to like rebalance the other wheel. I've got, like, jiggling around. It was like that. Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yeah. And you get to end of the tree, you're like, that was exhausting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Holy hell. Oh, jeez, we've got to get that wheel back on. Now it's back on and we're all smooth sailing baby Yeah I'm really excited to find out what's been going on Yeah good Well also you know how tickets are being selling Because they went on sale for Hook the musical Yesterday?
Starting point is 00:01:16 Yesterday at 7 a.m. And you know there's a lot of concerts on sale at the moment You post Malones You know who else is coming in New Zealand You name them, they're all coming Lily Allen Have we outsold all of them Yeah well I don't think they're not performing at the TAPAC theater
Starting point is 00:01:33 And we're undercutting on price as well. We're just 10 bucks as compared to hundreds of dollars. Do we need to move to a larger venue? Yeah, Spark Arena I've heard. Hey, wait, if MKTO can't get moved to Spark, we're not going. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. So we're doing the scary movie, uh, six WhatsApp battle.
Starting point is 00:01:51 What's up? When it gets a double pass to the movie and $250 cash. Yeah, not a bad way to win some cash this morning. It was like the catchphrase of the movie, wasn't it when it was first out? It was like, everybody was doing it. I remember. That's more cash per. word than me gets paid. I know.
Starting point is 00:02:07 Oh, I don't know about that, Glenn. Yeah, I think she's just signed a new contract. Yeah, no, just going to get contracts. No, I don't think that's right, actually. Now, um, I think it was Briah who won't yesterday, but it's just the boys won't have a crack in it this morning. You get one shot, one moment, one word. One opportunity. All right. Who are we going to first? Boston, let's hear it.
Starting point is 00:02:29 Boston. Three, two. Oh, done. Oh, yeah, Boston. That was woeful. Jason, Jason, you're up. What's that? That was good. Frontrunner.
Starting point is 00:02:45 Billy, you're next. Was that? Very close for me. It was a longer one, but I still think Jason's the leader. Okay, Marty. What's that? Okay, a little bit of a voice slap break here. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:05 I think it was deliberate? Yeah, do you think that was deliberate because I'd argue it broke and he lost character there? Oh, right. Yeah. See, I thought he was deliberate too, but who knows. Okay, well, Boys.
Starting point is 00:03:16 Okay, well, runner-up gets a double-pass to the movie. Scary Movie Six and cinemas on Thursday. Meg, I think you need to choose. You need to put your money where your mouth is for once and choose. Make a decision. Do we... Are we thinking Marty's the runner-up and Jason's our winner? I think that's the one.
Starting point is 00:03:31 Jason, congratulations. $250 all yours plus double-past for the movies. How good. Thanks, Steve. You sound so much different when you're not in character. Yeah, you don't sound standard all. Yeah. Well, don't, Jayce.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Thanks, guys. Appreciate that. Oh, too easy, bro. $250 to start your Tuesday, double pass in the movie. And Marty, don't go anywhere, bro. We'll saw you out with a double pass to Scary Movie 6 as well. The Wayans are back and no horror movie IP is safe. Great.
Starting point is 00:04:00 I love those movies back in the day. Yeah, everyone did right? They were iconic. And is Anna Ferris in... Yeah. I remember Roland Schitt from Schitt's Creek. He's in it. He's the guy with a little withered hand.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Grandma Stronghand. Grandma! Yeah, yeah. So good. Alright, we'll get a coffee catch up next little whip around. Oh God, the things me got up to yesterday. Geez. We'll have to just clear the schedule.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Yeah, absolutely. All right. I've got an injury to tell you guys about anyway, so I'll tell you. Yeah. It's the edge. Clint, Megan Dan. Lesh, go! In my area in West Auckland, there's two giant indoor playgrounds that have just opened.
Starting point is 00:04:35 Oh, that's exciting. It's fishing winter. They're very, very, very good. Both of them are like Vegas for kids. Without a word of a lie, one of them more so than the other. One's Chipmunks, one's an indoor wonderland. They're both amazing. I can see that you sit there and go, I can tell this.
Starting point is 00:04:50 It would be a lot of money to set up, but once you've set it up, just money make it. Just so many kids. Do you know what they need, though? They need noise cancelling headphones. Oh, they're loud. And they're fluorescent, and there's neon lights. It's a lot. I remember when I was a kid, there was, do you guys remember kids in action?
Starting point is 00:05:04 That was another one. I remember I used to go there. It was, it was like you could just spend all day there and not get bored. Yeah, yeah. So this one, the Wonderland one, has trampolines, and there's trampolines inside boxing rings, and there's dress-up rooms, and there's those things that you, it's a log, and it spins, and you try and battle each other off it.
Starting point is 00:05:21 God, I want to go there now as an adult. Yeah, and there's a huge bullpit, the biggest bullpit I've ever seen in my life with multiple slides going down, and I went with my daughter. That's supposed to be fair, all those. Yeah, but it's brand new, so I don't feel yucky about it. It's like literally open two weeks ago. How long do you give it before you start judging the ballroom? Probably six months, and then I'm going to judge the bullpress.
Starting point is 00:05:36 A couple of kids are weeding it, you know. Yeah, yeah, but right now it's super clean, I'm in it and I'm been enjoying it and was going around with my daughter Daisy and I think we're all the parents that want to be the parent that joins in. You don't want to be this parent on the sidelines? Oh, you're in the actual tunnels and stuff? I'm doing it with her.
Starting point is 00:05:52 They don't have the signs of this one saying no adults. A lot of them do. A lot of them are like no adults in the equipment. Either they're yet to do it and they haven't put them up yet, but there's no signs that say no adults. So I was like going around with Daisy and enjoying myself and we're playing with the balls and stuff. And then we found a sense.
Starting point is 00:06:10 slide, which was quite short and quite steep. And Daisy went down, zoomed down. She loved her. The faster the slide, the better. In fact, if she goes down to slide, you'll watch her face halfway down if it's too slow. And she'll go, boring. Wasting my time.
Starting point is 00:06:24 Yeah, truly, she gets so fed up with her. She's like, too slow, don't like it. So she's trying to find the faster slide. I'm like, great, adrenaline junkie. Love it. I should have thought that I'm a lot bigger, heavier. Than a four-year-old. Than a four-year-old.
Starting point is 00:06:37 So I go down the slide And unfortunately My tailbone takes the brunt And I've since spoken to my doctor We're going to have to get an extra I think that might have fractured My tailbone from going down Jesus meek
Starting point is 00:06:51 Just a earline fracture How thick is the ball pit? No so there were no balls at this part So I went straight like the angle of the slide You know normally you slide And you kind of swoop up a bit It's just hitting the ground And then so I sat there
Starting point is 00:07:04 I mean to hit the ground and run Kind of like when those guys parachutes You've got to start running before you actually hit the ground. So I went down and then I stood up and I saw the spot and I instantly was like, I'm going to throw up. I'm going to be sick. In the ball pit. Can you imagine you?
Starting point is 00:07:19 Oh, here you go. I did it. Month one. I know. I know. And so I very quickly like sat down and said, oh, all right, Daisy. Let's take a break. Let's take a little break.
Starting point is 00:07:29 I was like changing Miller so I'm by myself. I would have been white as a sheet and I'm like, just don't throw up, don't throw up. Because you know when it's that sore nausea just hits you? I had to stay in the moment for about 40 minutes before I got the guts to stand up. Just this woman's in and they're going, oh, God, I think I've broken something. Turns out, yeah, I definitely might have. But pre-warning, if you go to Indoor Wonderland in the West Auckland area, the white slide, I saw another woman do it.
Starting point is 00:07:56 As I was leaving, I swear to God, she went zooming down. And I saw her go, oh, God. Staff like, he goes another one, he goes another one, go, go, go, go watch, come watch, go watch. I were going to watch, go watch. I reckon after you left, they would have been like, we need to put signs up. Right, Joe, put those signs. Imagine if they had to, like, winch you out of there.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Clint Meg and Dan. Stinky Burt. Clint Megan Dan's scandal. Taylor Lawtonner from Twilight and his wife, Taylor Lortner, have announced their first child. That's right, they're both Taylor right, and then he took the same last night. That their first child is a girl.
Starting point is 00:08:29 Here, they are funny out. That's cool. He said that he has always dreamed of being a girl dad, so it was his ultimate goal and dream to have a little girl one day and his first child's a girl. Chances they call her Taylor? Yeah, Drew.
Starting point is 00:08:48 God, imagine that way a nightmare in the house like when anyone calls Taylor you turn around, right? Yeah. But it's so sweet. It shouldn't be that way, but it's so sweet seeing dads react like that to girls because obviously around the world in certain cultures,
Starting point is 00:09:01 it's sons that you want. So it was very cool. And Megan the Stallion and Leah Michelle joined Pink on stage at the Tonys for a performance of Lady Marmalade. They were just too. strangers carry us some cake. Yeah, it was a very cool point.
Starting point is 00:09:23 Did you watch it, Dan? No, I haven't heard about Leah Michelle in like 10 years. What's she being up to? Looting to read, I think. Yes. That's the big gag. Yeah, but she's been doing a lot of stuff and seeming that she's back on stage. Good on her.
Starting point is 00:09:36 94-2. Climbing and Dan. There was that rumor about Leah Michelle for a while. Obviously, she was from Glee. She did a few other things. But there was a rumor that she was like a bit of a bee. Oh, yes, definitely. Yeah, and like everybody was like, didn't want.
Starting point is 00:09:49 want to work with her because she was a bit of a diva. Well, you think it might have actually been true for the fact that she didn't get much work afterwards. Yeah. Interesting, in it? Because we've already given away $250 cash and we spoke to a bunch of people. I guess first call of the day is kind of redundant. But it is nice to spend some time and catch up with people that listen to the show nice and early.
Starting point is 00:10:06 We've got a double pass to our musty movie, which is directed by Stephen Spielberg. I thought that dude was retired. It's the first movie he's done in forever with Emily Blunt. It's getting a lot of hype as well. I've seen a lot of interviews with Stephen online and he's frothing over it. He's like obsessed with supernatural and like aliens and extraterrestrial life. He's really into the interviews. I've been watching a lot of interviews and he's very engaged, which I think is cool.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Yeah, he seems like an interesting guy. Yeah, well, it's called Disclosure Day. It's out in cinemas on Thursday. So if you want to hear it along for free, 0-800-Each, Bridges Carl. I went through it last night, incredible. Oh, cool. The movie of the year. Clint, Megan Dan.
Starting point is 00:10:44 All right, who we catching up this morning? First call of the day. It's Louise. She loves it. Wi-Fi movie. She's a police officer in the front line. Oh, I love talking to police office because you know what? They have better work stories, don't they? Is that still the case, Louise?
Starting point is 00:11:00 Oh, we try our best. Yeah. Last night didn't provide too many exciting ones, so that's okay. How do you not take your work home with you when you see arguably the worst side of society day and day out? Oh, great question, Clint. Well, thank you, Megan. Yeah, that was a good question. I don't know, I guess you just sort of learn to adapt and find ways to do it.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Just blast the music on the way home. Yeah. What makes a good police officer? Because I'd imagine there'd be a lot of people that listen that go, maybe I could do that. What is it about a person that makes them good officer? You'd have to, like, conflicts. Not as good a question.
Starting point is 00:11:35 Yeah. Yeah. I reckon like you've got to be, you know, the good, happy medium of when you've got your victims to deal. You've got to be really kind and caring to them, and then you've got to know when to, you know, flick the switch and deal with the not so nice people.
Starting point is 00:11:49 I've got another good question, I think. What are the physical requirements to get into the police force these days? So I think it's been the same for quite a while. So it is the, they call it the PAT test, which is the run, the push-ups, the vertical jump and the grip strength test. And then that is also, once you're at
Starting point is 00:12:10 college, they're like obstacle course. Oh, right. Clicks really good at the grip test. Yeah, okay. What about the press-ups? How many would Dan need to do to get into the police force? Because I'd love to see how many he could get right now to see if he could get in. I think for the men, 34.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Jesus. It's about 30 more than you can do. Oh, God, that's being generous. A nice wide arm push-up. Wait, so if you can't do 34, you can't be a cop as a man. I think that there's, like, different levels. So I think that's possibly for, like, the top. point, but it would still be probably
Starting point is 00:12:47 mid-20s would be the absolute minimum. Oh, you have to get a certain amount of points across the board. You can work on reception on something, Dan. Yeah, but that's fair enough. I feel like if you're protecting the nation, you need to be able to do some press-ups. I agree. I've been really fast.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think there's definitely, like I've seen when I went to America, there were cops over there that I thought couldn't do the fitness test that New Zealand cops could do, so I'm quite happy that we have to. Yeah. You've seen Chief Wiggum. on The Simpsons.
Starting point is 00:13:16 I don't think he could do 34 press-ups. And Louise, if we get pulled over for speeding, what's the best thing we can say to get out of the ticket? Oh, just don't deny it. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Yes, I was. Fall on the sword and you never know.
Starting point is 00:13:32 It might be refreshing to be like, yep, I was speeding. I apologize. Yep, you got me. Do people deny it and go, I definitely wasn't speeding? Yeah, do people argue it? Oh, yeah, no, they go, oh, I had cruise control on. And you're like, yeah, but you can still go faster than you. your set speed.
Starting point is 00:13:46 Oh, good. Hey Louise, we're going to send you along to Disclosure Dates in Cinemas on Thursday, directed by Stephen Spielberg, Emily Blind, producer Carl Serat last night at the premiere and said, so far, movie of the year for him. You'll love that. That sounds great.
Starting point is 00:14:01 Thank you so much. Thanks, Louise. Thank you for being so honest with us this morning. Thanks for your service. We love you guys. It's hard to not police people when you're not on duty. Because I see people on their phone when they're driving and I want them to look at me so I can go,
Starting point is 00:14:14 and wave a little finger? I know a couple of police officers and they're good fun when they're not on duty. You know? I think they have to because they're like you say Clint their job's so serious
Starting point is 00:14:25 that when they're not on duty they have to sort of have a bit of a laugh. It's like us we get real boring after this job. Yeah my wife always wants to talk and I'm out, but shh-shh-shh naughty 640 up next on the edge.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Clint, Megan Dan It's time to get naughty at 640. What's he got today? university, quite a prestigious university. So I found this one quite interesting that they would dedicate time and resources to this. But they've released a study saying that men
Starting point is 00:14:53 kissing their close male friends is completely normal and not a gay act. Oh, Clint, you could just ask. You don't need to come up with some fake study just to give me a kiss. Come on, come on here. Straight men who kiss their close male friends are simply expressing affection and emotional closeness
Starting point is 00:15:10 and has nothing to do with their sexual orientation. says that friendships are evolving and the younger generations of men especially are far more comfortable showing physical affection to each other without it meaning anything beyond the bond that they share. But like I feel like you're duh like two girls giving each other a kiss as friends
Starting point is 00:15:29 don't nod you head at me like that. I feel like they didn't need a study. They're not going to do a study and be like girls that give their friends a kiss aren't lesbians. Like what a weird place to put your money? If you want to give you a mate a kiss, go and give them a kiss. No, I mean, no. Why?
Starting point is 00:15:43 When are the times that you would think, oh yeah, like, dude's kissing their guy mates? You're like, yeah. You wouldn't bat an eyelid. Can I think if you guys did something together that was like, oh my God, we just did that. You won a race or you were like really, really excited or maybe your favorite sports team. And you were like jumping up and down and you got, muh. I still don't think I would kiss. Like it wouldn't.
Starting point is 00:16:06 I might kiss Dan on the forehead, maybe. I don't think I just won something. They say he was in the Olympics for. Pole Vault And we've gone to the Olympics Probably the weird triple jump or something So Dan's in the Olympics for pole vault And we're in the audience
Starting point is 00:16:25 And then he literally does his final pole vault And he wins the gold And we know that he's like clogged it And he comes racing over to us I'd give him big kiss You want me to race over to you clip So I've just pole vaulted a world record Okay
Starting point is 00:16:36 It's shocked you to the core I'll be the commentator Wait wait Dan's still on antibiotics for his sickness No, no, no, no, you're in the audience, you're watching your mate. And they go, and you wouldn't believe it. Is it the goal? Do you know why that was weird? Because Dan ran over and then we fist bumped and then we shook hands and then he kissed.
Starting point is 00:17:06 So it's like he had time to pull out of the kiss, whereas I think the kiss needs to be an overwhelming sense of emotion. You don't double take. Very happy for him to win Pol Bowl. He was, he was, he's dulling your shine there. He's the thing, mate. Okay, we're doing radio. We need a little bit of an out. You weren't providing it, so I went in for the kiss.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Okay. Nothing gay about it. Nothing. Just on the cheek as well. Yeah. Yeah. You know what? I genuinely think if the moment takes you
Starting point is 00:17:31 and it's a good moment, kiss whoever you're bloody want. As long as you've got consent. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. There's a lot there actually. Kiss whoever you want if the moment takes you. Yeah, like obviously, say for instance you're at the Olympics,
Starting point is 00:17:45 like that situation and your coach is there. You've had a great lead up to the Olympics. You come first. Get a kiss. So wait If you're at the Olympics You're not to kiss Whoever you want
Starting point is 00:17:55 What's the rule? I just said If there's a moment That requires a kiss And all parties are involved Or into the kiss It sounds like cheating to me Does it sounds like
Starting point is 00:18:07 Clit me and Dan More or less different topic every morning You have to guess if the first option Is more or less than the second Since we're working with scary movie This morning I thought we'd talk about Movies from the 2000s And which one made more
Starting point is 00:18:19 At the Worldwide Box Office Oh nice We've got at this clip. All right. So did Shrek 2 make more or less money than Harry Potter in the Order of the Phoenix? That's tricky. At the movies.
Starting point is 00:18:30 Both very big franchises. I would argue that Shrek 2 would be hard to beat. Yeah, off the back of obviously the success coming out of nowhere with the first one. Yeah, I'll go with you on that. Yeah, no, that's wrong. Harry Potter. Sorry about that.
Starting point is 00:18:45 Shouldn't have gone against the Potter fans. Okay, well then Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone or Finding Nemo, what made more money? Oh again, both the first in the series Because obviously there's Finding Dory Um Again Oh
Starting point is 00:19:00 Finding Nemo or Harry Potter Should we go against Harry the first time? Should we go Harry this time? Yeah, Harry Potter You learn, boys, you learn from really soon Okay, the Dark Night or Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Man's Chest Dark Night
Starting point is 00:19:13 Sure Yeah, dark night's one of the best movies ever made It's on like the top lists of many Yeah, let's go Dark Night No. Pirates of the Caribbean DeBan's chest made $1.066 billion. My goodness. In the movies. I guess the Pirates of the Caribbean was the
Starting point is 00:19:29 movie franchise with Johnny Debt, right? I've never seen them. Neither have I. I've never seen them. Shut up. Both of you have never seen them. Do they hold up? We watch them with the kids? They do. I mean, the fact Johnny Debb will leave him, but he's a fantastic pirate and you'll love him. The kids will love him. It's very, very funny.
Starting point is 00:19:46 I've watched it. In this amounts of times. I don't even know how many times. It's a comfort movie for me. Unpopular opinion. But I actually think that Johnny Depp is really overrated as an actor. Well, watch him in this movie and tell me what you think. Because he always plays like really out there characters.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Yeah. He's never subtle. He's always playing like this wacky bloody character. Oh, it's very clever. I think you should absolutely love it. And your kids will love it. Okay, next one. Scary movie or men girls?
Starting point is 00:20:11 Scary movie more. Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah, $278 million at the box office. Last one, which movie made more? The Lord of the Rings, the Two Tout. Or Shrek 2? No, you already know that...
Starting point is 00:20:22 Oh, she's come back to Shrek again. Now, the two towers, I think, probably in terms... I think the Shrek 2 would have the masses. No! Lord of the Rings. Shrek's being beaten twice now. Yeah, sorry, Shrek's. No, we've got Shrek 2. And I don't even like Shrek, but I thought that that would have been...
Starting point is 00:20:40 Yeah, no, the Lord of the Rings, the Two Towers, number two, 936 million. Wasn't they talking doing a movie just with donkey? Yeah, I think... And then, Steve, they were impossible. Boots. Yeah, Enimuthan he has been wanting one. He talks about it all the time and then he even got mad. That felt like a no-brainer and Tonya Banderas went and did the cat, but the donkey was the best part of it.
Starting point is 00:20:59 Yeah, he's been dying for us. I don't know who he's pissed off in the industry, but that never happened. I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder. They could just get Clint to voice it. They could do. Yeah, save some money. All right, take the edge off my life.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Have you registered? Thousands have. We could be calling you next. You need to answer. They will take the edge off my life. And the cash is yours. The error rate is rather low But 7 o'clock is the time people struggle with the most
Starting point is 00:21:24 Because they're still getting out of bed And getting ready for the day You have had a few fails at 7 Clint, Megan Dan Take the edge off Take the edge off my life You can be winning Whatever you need
Starting point is 00:21:35 Take the edge off To take the edge off Hang on 7 o'clock We are looking to call a broke I'm quoting A broke nursing student on placement Working 45 hours a week for free while paying for my own fuel,
Starting point is 00:21:48 everyone else is getting their hair done in these little treats while I'm calculating if I can financially recover from a coffee. Can you believe that? I will say coffee has gone up recently. They've just snuck it in. It's now like $7 for a coffee.
Starting point is 00:22:01 Yeah, seven bucks for a coffee. That snuck up in the last couple of years. You used to be able to clearly say, I'll shout you a coffee and give somebody a $5 note. Yeah, no, you wouldn't get you a coffee now, five bucks. M's and Canterbury. Are they a little better there? I think they'd still be pushing over $5.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Well, she wants $300 to get. get her hair done. Treat herself. But she needs to answer with the right thing. Emma. Oh no. Emma. Oh God, oh God, it's done.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Maybe she's at work and she's on placement. It's going to get an answer phone. Ready, three, two. How many rings does she have? Can you change it? $300 is all yours eventually. What took her so long? Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Are you still in bed? What's going on? Yes, I was. Did you... Were you still asleep when you are and said there was like a minute of silence. No, I couldn't turn my phone on. Oh my God. Wow.
Starting point is 00:23:20 God, you're lucky. Jesus, he was a gambling man. Yeah. Yeah, I had you pick to lose that cash, but it's all yours. $300. Get your hair done. We hear you're a broke ass nursing student working for free at the moment. Yes, I am.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Thank you so much. Oh, you're well. Go back to sleep. Go back to sleep. She must be exhausted. Oh, no, I've got to get up. I'm on placement. Okay, get up, get up, get up, get up.
Starting point is 00:23:43 This is your wake-up call. Yeah, yeah. My goodness. Treat yourself with a large coffee this morning. Oh, I will, don't worry. All right, Erin. Come on you, mate. Congrats, hold there.
Starting point is 00:23:53 I was literally, my finger was hovering over, hang up. Yeah. She was, oh, so close to losing. Hey, yeah, next we're going to catch up with Casey Frank. Not Frank Casey, who's the guy that does suits. Oh, right. Yeah. Don't get confused.
Starting point is 00:24:08 With your questions. Yeah, NBA finals are on They tip off game three Just after midday today Clint Megan Dan Best of seven in the NBA finals I think the score currently is Two-Nnothing to the New York Knicks
Starting point is 00:24:22 But they haven't actually won the championship Since the 70s Wow, that's a huge drought Isn't it longer than the Warriors Yeah, well they've never won Yeah exactly It's been 30 years And Casey Frank
Starting point is 00:24:34 Who is an American New Zealand Former Professional Basketball player Played for the Tallblacks joins us. What a Casey? What a time, Casey. It's one of my favorite times of the year. This is when the basketball is at its best. And especially with these two teams playing in New York City, the excitement is pretty much off the meter. It must be fever pitcher in New York, because as Clint was saying before, so they haven't won since the 70s. They're the home team. They must be the favorites going
Starting point is 00:25:00 into tonight's game, right? Well, it's interesting because they are slight favorites coming back to the home crowd, but there is a little bit of fear in the home fans. You know, I'm a native New Yorker. I've got family back at East. My dad was a Knicks fan his entire life and drained that into me. And as excited as everybody is in New York, there's also a bit of fear about the ghosts that are coming back because it has been such a long time between drinks.
Starting point is 00:25:25 They've been close before and they've had a few hit back. So I think as exciting as it is, I think the fear is almost bigger than the happiness. Do the Americans find the best of seven kind of weird? Nowhere else in the world can I ever think of where people go, all right, well, best of seven. Like best of three, the Knicks would already have it. Yeah, I think the best of seven in the States is what demarcates the amateurs from the professionals. If you look at professional baseball, best of seven, professional basketball, best of seven.
Starting point is 00:25:56 But when you look at the amateurs in the collegiate ranks, it's one game, wins all for both those things. So I think that's the step up that shows that it's really the best of the best of. the best. You can't get lucky. You have to win four out of seven, so you really do have to be the very best team to win a title in the NBA. When you have people like Timothy Shalameh, Kylie Jenna sitting on the sidelines, and I know that Tim has brought in a lot of, I guess, hype because he is such a huge Knicks fan. How much do these tickets go for when you've got celebrities like that that are wanting the seats as well? Did the ticket prices really sore for these games? This is the most expensive sporting event of all times. This is the most expensive
Starting point is 00:26:31 sporting event of all time right now. The very worst seat in the house is going for around $9,000 in the West. Damn. That's at the very, very top by itself a single. They're saying that some of the better seats in the house are going for up to $650,000. No, American dollars. And the crazy thing is, Tennessee Salamide doesn't even pay for his tickets. If you're in and you're one of the celebs that get there, the next just give them to you.
Starting point is 00:27:01 to be one of the core fans. But the other people are paying for them, they are paying out of the nose. Damn. I'm looking at it like the ticket prices now for just where you're sitting in Madison Square Garden tonight. Just for an average ticket right up in the gods. It's like $50,000 New Zealand dollars.
Starting point is 00:27:17 Oh my God. Isn't that shocking? And it's sold out. And it's not even getting seen. It's not even the decider. Wow. Well, there was a lot of fans from New York City that decided to fly first class buy tickets
Starting point is 00:27:31 to the San Antonio game because that was cheaper than just buying one ticket for the MSG. So this is the hottest ticket ever because there's going to be a lot of C-Lubs, probably a few D-Lubs,
Starting point is 00:27:41 but a lot of lighter pockets because they went to the game. Casey Frank, former Tall Black, it sounds like I've had the voice disguiser on you all morning, and I have it. But if I do put the voice disguiser
Starting point is 00:27:50 on you just quickly, I wonder what that might sound like. Thank you so much for chatting with us. I appreciate it. Thanks very much, go. Yes. You've got an incredible voice. He does.
Starting point is 00:28:01 incredible. Wow. You should do voiceovers. Do you know what? I think that's one of those things. You spend the money, you go, and then when you leave the game, no game could be that good where you go, that was worth 30 grand for the two of us. I don't think I, even if I went along and I spent 50 grand, even if it was the best game of basketball ever, I would still be like I overspent there.
Starting point is 00:28:21 No, there's definitely nothing I love that much in the world, I think. Yeah, but sometimes you do get caught up in whatever it might be. I'd love to take some calls on like, what did you drop way too much money on? and only now looking back, yeah, are you able to realize that you were crazy to do that? Yeah, you look back now, maybe it was 10 years ago and you're like, what was I thinking, spending $40,000 to go to Katie Perry over in Vegas? Me spent, I think, like, how much did you spend on like two apples or four apples? Oh, 60 bucks on four apples because they said they're the world's best apples.
Starting point is 00:28:50 And they weren't. They were very, very, what would he call, flowery, powdery flowery? 60 bucks on four apples? Okay, what is the thing that you look back on now and go, that was so, stupid. I spent so much money on that. And if you don't want to catch the NBA Finals, you can check it out on SkySport and also Disney has it as well.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Klaus come... Kicks off for tips off, sorry, just after midday, 1230. Yeah. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. If you want to get along to the NBA Finals, Game 3, which tips off just after midday today on SkySport, if you want to catch it. The cheapest tickets, about 14,000 New Zealand
Starting point is 00:29:26 dollars, and I think that's gone up since I checked that yesterday, actually. That's crazy. Nosebleeds right up the top. Something you're barely going to see for a single ticket as well by yourself. Yeah, we want to talk about when did you look back in hindsight and go, I got roped up into that and I spent way too much money for what it was. Someone got roped into the Hello Kitty craze.
Starting point is 00:29:47 Oh yeah. Spent over $3,000 about 15 years ago on Hello Kitty merch. Regret it now. I reckon there'd be a few Labooos out there. People would have spent hundreds of dollars on the boobos. I love this one. I bought a $4,000 treadmill. during lockdown.
Starting point is 00:30:02 It has since become the world's most expensive clothing rack. Yeah. Just hang crap on it. Oh, man. Someone else spent a lot of money on Yugi cards six years ago. Yu-Gi-Oh cards. Oh, yeah. Yeah, Hugio.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Imagine the gathering. Was that like odd bods and stuff? Nah, sort of like, I guess, Pokemon cards, but a different version. Right. It's still worth a bit of money now, though. No. Apparently. The first flip phone, Kaylee, said,
Starting point is 00:30:28 Vodafone had a tiny little screen $1,000 which would have been huge money back then She said regret always But did it have polyphonic ringtones? That's right. That's really cool. That's pretty cool. My husband tried to start collecting DVDs.
Starting point is 00:30:44 We don't have a DVD player for a while And there's three DVDs. I don't even know what they are that he purchased That are still in the package Because he feels so shameful He hasn't even opened them of like What was I thinking buying this? Oh, you mean recently?
Starting point is 00:30:56 Yeah, recently. And they're in the page. He hasn't. open the box that they came in because I can't look at them because I get so angry that I spent that money. I'd love to know who's still buying them because I went to JV. Hi-Fi recently and they're still selling DVDs. Who's buying DVDs now?
Starting point is 00:31:10 Apart from like really old people that don't know how to use Netflix. I can't imagine why you'd go on and buy a DVD. I just don't think you could leave that NBA game regardless of the result and go, Matt, that was so worth the $30,000 that you spent for you and your partner to go and watch. I just don't see any game being left. worth it. Even if you could guarantee me the Warriors
Starting point is 00:31:30 winning a grand final, I've been watching them since I was 10. I still would not spend $30,000 to sit in the stands to watch the Warriors win a grand final. It's all relative though, isn't it? Like if you're super rich and wealthy, at 30 grand, Trump chains to you. That's just like a normal Warriors
Starting point is 00:31:46 ticket for most people. If you're like a millionaire. If you're very, very rich for them, maybe. But I think wedding days, there'll be a few wedding days that people will look back on and go, I spent $4,000 on a dress that I wore once. Yeah, but at the time, You're just blinded by wanting exactly it to be how you wanted. Someone else said, I spent way too much money on a meet-and-greet with Maroon 5.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Yeah, me and Adam spoke for maybe close to 45 seconds. Yeah. Yeah, whenever you pay for a meet and greet, you need to know that the person that you've paid for doesn't want to meet you. Yeah. You know, so they're getting paid to meet you. Yeah, me and Clint actually talked about this when you were away last week, Dan, about whether we should pay for a MKTO meeting greet.
Starting point is 00:32:27 But then... It's an extra like 100 bucks. It's like $90 for a ticket, $190 if you want a meet and greet. But we're like, how long do you get to meet them for? They'll be like, who are these two nobody's? Okay, Kevin, what was the thing that you dropped way too much money on and looking back? You're like, what was it thinking?
Starting point is 00:32:43 Yeah, hey guys, how are you? Yeah, good. Good, good. Yeah, no, I bought probably about $3,000 or $4,000 worth of collectible phone cards back in the mid-90s. And Getty, you know, KZ7 ones, Elvis even, Elvis collectible ones that were misprinted. blah, blah, blah. Yeah, and then the chip, the phone chip card came in, and they were just pretty much redundant.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Yeah. So you're talking about when you go to a pay phone and you'd put, like, a card in instead of coins? Oh, what's that right? Is that what you mean? Like, like, for pay phones? It's like a voucher to call people, basically. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:33:16 Yeah, yeah. Wow. That was that. So I pretty much either tried them on trade me, no, I wanted them, so I just threw them all out. Oh, man. You could have done something with them? You can't predict the market, can you?
Starting point is 00:33:27 No, and I do regret it now because, I mean, you know, with 30-odd years on, it's like, oh, bugger, I could have had those. Who knew the phone market would have technology improvements? Yeah. You know, who knew? We just weren't. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Thanks, Kevin. All right, well, if you do want to get around the NBA and you don't have a real job and you can watch TV at 1230 in the afternoon, then we'll see how the next go. If you get the next couple of games, it'll be the first championship win since the 70s. That's incredible, right?
Starting point is 00:33:56 Yeah, it's a hell of it. The Clint Megandandandand podcast. We want to know if you have New Zealand's cutest meat cute. A lot of people have missed the Mark with the cutest meat cute. Nicole see my parents met at a TAB. I'm just gambling on horses. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:11 I mean, you have to meet somewhere, I guess. But people, I don't think they know the definition of a meat cute. This is a good one. We went climbing Mount Roy and Wanika. Part way up, I got chatting to my friend about a guy Ryan that I thought she would get along with a friend of mine.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Guess who we meet at the top. of the peak. Bloody Ryan! They've just celebrated being married for two years. What was he doing up there? Mincing around on the top of the mountain. He's probably doing the same sort of hobbies.
Starting point is 00:34:37 Maybe that's why, you know. They got along. Yeah. It's amazing. Another one's super cliche, they've said, but I like this one. Bridesmaid meets groomsman. Oh, you wonder if that ever happens, right?
Starting point is 00:34:48 American Light Roncom. I love that. That's the dream if you're single as a bridesmaid or a groomsman, right? Don't you think? And another one met their partner by texting the cell phone number. that she got from his four sales sign that was written across the back window of his car.
Starting point is 00:35:01 I think some guys, or maybe girls do that even when they're in relationships and they say, oh, I've put my number on the back of my car to sell it, but then they don't sell it for months, but they just see if they get numbers. But they're fielding calls from people being like, hey, is that car still available? Yeah, maybe.
Starting point is 00:35:14 Yeah, but there might be like somebody that drives past them and it's like, hey, they're hot, and then they text and their numbers on the back. It's the price you pay, Dan. You've got to fill the out of the tire clickers to find the audience. It's like, is that RAF4 still available, right? All right, let's talk to Steph. Steph, what was your meat cute?
Starting point is 00:35:30 Good morning. Morning. I think mine's pretty cute, to be honest. It was O week at uni. It was Togunite. And we were sitting outside McDonald's as you do after a night out. I didn't know who he was, but there was a hairy leg standing next to me. So I just started pulling the leg hairs.
Starting point is 00:35:47 And it's been 15 years, married to a kid. Oh, gorgeous. That is lovely. So he was just standing as soon you were a little bit tidly and just yanked on him. And he goes, hi, yeah. And now you got into his toga. Yeah, it got right in there. Oh, wow, okay, good on you, Z.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Hey, and Steph, it keeps paying off. We've got a $100 Mocka voucher, furniture design for New Zealand homes. We'll get that one out here. Go buy yourself something nice. Amazing, thank you so much. You can also save 40% off clearance items today at maca.com. Morning, Alex. Hi, Alex.
Starting point is 00:36:16 Is this your parents? Hi. It is. It's not my parents, but my mum worked at, like, a bakery. And my dad would come in, and get pikelets made daily, but he was highly allergic to, like, dairy, gluten. So he would stomach them just so that he could essentially have a conversation.
Starting point is 00:36:39 Yeah, but it worked. I mean, look, we're here. Yeah. And when did he admit that he was allergic to everything your mum would make? It was a little bit down the track. So we alter the pancake recipe now, but yeah, it's really cute. So he would purposely give himself the squirts just to meet your mum. That is so cute.
Starting point is 00:36:59 That is so cute. Oh, that's so romantic when you put it out. Yeah, that's so romantic. Alex is here with us. Oh, wow. Well, there is a few coming through. I must say, some of them, I don't know if they are cute, though. That's the thing.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Oh, come on. The Ferris wheel. So cute. Sitting beside her, sat beside her on a Ferris wheel and I held her him because she was scared. Now we're married 21 years. Oh, but some people would find that creepy. Do you know what? I'd be like, why is this loser on a Ferris wheel?
Starting point is 00:37:24 himself. True. And who rides in the same awkward like thing with another random person? Yeah, maybe there's more to that story. All right, next. It's time for Clint Megyn Dan's
Starting point is 00:37:36 lie detector results. Dreading this, absolutely dreading. No, not more than I am. Dan's results between now and 8 o'clock. What did he lie about? What did he tell the truth about? Imagine hooking your friend up to a lie detector
Starting point is 00:37:48 and being able to ask them anything and know if they're telling the truth or lying. And having friends like these two. as well. You know, like, we, there's no holds barb with us. So, um, nobody was nice to each other during this. It's boring listening, isn't it, being nice to each other? Yeah, I might get a few home truths from our Dan mix. Clint Megan Dan. Oh, oh my gosh. It's time for Clint Megan Dan's light detector results.
Starting point is 00:38:13 I'm gutted that I missed this yesterday with you, Clint. How did it go back? Did anybody give you feedback on how much of an arrogant? I think people just know he is. You know, there was no surprises. Yeah. There sometimes wasn't enough time to give context. Like the one where you said, have you or Dan ever had terrible ideas and I've sat in the corner and said nothing? Well, obviously, we've been to get it, 10 years, make it's arrogant of you
Starting point is 00:38:35 to think that you haven't had one bad idea in a decade. Yeah, yeah. Thank you, Dan. Exactly, God, it's like one bad idea a day. Oh, God. Are we ready? Dan ended up getting strapped up after me and put on their little finger thing, and they did the chest thing,
Starting point is 00:38:51 sitting in the back of a dark van. Yeah, can I just put it? the picture, you're hooked up to all these things. There's a grumpy old man doing all the measurements. He doesn't say much. You're nervous. There's like hot lighting on you. Your friends are watching you.
Starting point is 00:39:03 Before Dan even started, there was a green, a blue and a red line. The red line was jumping all over the place. We didn't even ask Dan questions. Yeah, it's legit. The man that does it, I think he's like an ex-FBI agent or something. There's got to be a margin of error. There's got to be a little, like nothing is foolproof. Yeah, you would say that, though, wouldn't you?
Starting point is 00:39:21 Do you stand by all of these then, Dan? Or do you think there's maybe a margin of error? Do you think there's one that could be wrong? I mean, to be fair, I think I was like, wow, it's pretty accurate. Okay, well, this is how Dan answered. His lie detector quiz. Dan, how many burner accounts do you currently have active to comment on your own gear? One.
Starting point is 00:39:42 No. We know of at least two. It's like there's three. Yeah, but you know what? There was a few where I was trying to test it. Like I purposely did a wrong answer that I knew was a lie, just to see if it was picking the lies up. Because you do have quite a few burner counts.
Starting point is 00:40:02 That one should take it. Three of them. I think it's now, yeah, maybe three, but I don't use all three of them. Just to what, get your insights up. I'm not on the lie detector anymore. Okay. This one actually said to a real statesman in radio. He's been doing radio, what, 30-odd years?
Starting point is 00:40:19 Longer. Yeah, yeah. Mr. Farreley from the Rock. Who is the most attractive man in radio? Roger Farrell. God! Santa Rod. Poor Roger.
Starting point is 00:40:29 I think he is. Why do you don't? Obviously. And your voice went up at the end. I think he is. Yeah, well again, I was testing the machine. From there on out, I was truthful. Really?
Starting point is 00:40:37 Yeah. Okay. Well, let's see. On the show, out of the three of us, which one spends the most time looking as if they are busy? Oh, that's a hard one, because if looking on your phone is bit busy, then Meg. You've got my shots. Why am I getting them?
Starting point is 00:40:59 I think Clint's genuinely busy. He's pushing buttons. Yeah, sorry, you actually did cop Australia, didn't it? And I was like, what is she doing on that phone? What is she doing? I just wonder if you throw himself under the bus. No. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:12 And next, we'll get the answer to this question. Do you think you should be the highest paid announcer on the Clint Megandandand show? I answered there. Clint Megan Dan. Lesh go! It's time for Clint Megan Dan's lie detector results. We've got the last few questions here before we can move on.
Starting point is 00:41:37 I was sat in a lie detector chair, Megan Clint asking questions. It's very stressful. Yeah, you became, I think your true colour's really started to show in the second half. Do you think you should be the highest paid announcer on the Clint Megan Dad show? Yes. He was just like so adamant. So confident. So real.
Starting point is 00:42:03 I'd say Clint's probably the one that's the highest paid now. And that's only because time spent here. Yeah. Because if it wasn't, if he didn't have the longevity... It should be you? Yeah. I practically work here for free, man. Well, you're a woman, so, you know, generally you have to be...
Starting point is 00:42:17 I'm joking. Oh, really? No, no, no, you know. Okay, this one, unfortunately, I'm not sure with the audio. Dan's answer is very hard to hear, but he does answer Meg quickly out the gate, and then the room lit up red, and you'll hear that he's lying. Your show would suffer the most. If it lost, who?
Starting point is 00:42:45 Clint, Meg or Dan? Well, it's not you. Okay, me. So Dan answered Meg, came up a lie, and then we thought it must be him or I. Clint, and then that came up a lie as well. So he finally admitted he thinks himself. Highest paid and would suffer the most if we lost.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Okay, one final question before we put the nail in Dan's coffin. Do you think you are the funniest person on the show? Sorry, what was that? Yes. Yes Oh Oh good Well then no
Starting point is 00:43:27 You're like that's wrong Yeah To what you said There's room for error In these lie detector tests No I think the lie detector Save me there Thank goodness
Starting point is 00:43:36 Well that's interesting So why would you throw yourself Under the bus and say Yes you think you're the funniest On the show Well I sort of kind of do But obviously I was lying But you know
Starting point is 00:43:45 Obviously The lie detector knows everything Jesus All right well Meg is up tomorrow and she gets hit with a real doozy. Hang on heart, do you think the edge would be nothing without you? Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Our reaction almost gives away her eyes in there, I think. Yeah, mate. It's just so nerve-wracking, isn't it, being in there? Even though it's just you guys. Yeah, it is. You can look like a real asshole. Shout out to KFC as well. They own the black van and are cruising around the country.
Starting point is 00:44:17 And if you do see it as part of Game Zone, you can actually, like, jump in the back and give it a nudge. Strap your best mate in there and ask them some curly ones It's funny Alright, coming up next Take the edge off my life I've got some cash to give away This one, again very unique
Starting point is 00:44:32 It is the only person asking for cash for this specific thing Clint Meg and SpinkyB Take the edge off Take the edge off my life You could be winning whatever you need To take the edge off This one, this one, huh? Very, very random
Starting point is 00:44:48 Someone is looking for a couple of sheep for their paddock just to keep the grass down? They're great for that. You don't need a lawnmower if you've got a sheep. You know how they've enticed us with this one? Go on. They need to name them.
Starting point is 00:45:02 Mm-hmm. There's only two sheep. There's three of us. Oh, that's, you know, when you've got three egotistical a radio announcers. Hi, if you record your name and reasons are calling, I'll see if this person is available. Oh, she's got one of those new finger.
Starting point is 00:45:15 I've got that. It's a security. It's called Megan Dan. Megan Dan, your favorite radio show. Oh, that's cheating. What? She gets that, is it? Oh, you think she should lose because it's answer for her? I'm just saying what she's obviously going to answer now with it, right?
Starting point is 00:45:30 Well, maybe she knows. Yeah, of course. Good morning. Oh. Take the edge off my life. No. Oh. No.
Starting point is 00:45:39 Was she being polite and then started? No. But the rule is you have to the first thing you say is take the edge of my life. You said mourning. Go, Jack, the boss is coming in. I mean, we've never had. had his opinion in before because we've always just said. I want her. I'm saying good morning first.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Yeah, she was being polite. Again, we're going through the boss, the video referee. Hmm. I would say no, she doesn't deserve it. Unita's argument is that she was starting by being polite and then carried on with the rules of the game. Was there any pause in between? It was a shocker because she had one of those answer phones,
Starting point is 00:46:17 those automated answer phones. We said it was Clint Migg and Dan first. So she knew it was us. So had a heads up first. and then answered the phone with Good Morning. I don't think we can pay it. No. Sorry, you need her.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Which is really quite annoying because we wanted a sheep named after us. Yeah. Yeah, I guess I'll just name them after my friends then. Oh. Oh, we're not your friends in more. Just, you need to know that I was rooting for you, babe. Oh, damn.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Oh, wow. Rolls are rolls. Rolls, I'm sorry. Send us out with your best sheep and sheep. impression, would you? It's pretty good. That was uncanny. It was pretty good.
Starting point is 00:46:57 It was brilliant. Yeah, that is odd. Oh my goodness. I did want to hand the sheep. Just do light for our own good? We both had great argument. Clinton actually means settlement on a hill. Do you know who likes to settle on hills?
Starting point is 00:47:10 Sheep. Do they? I don't think they know it. They do. They love sitting on hills. I think they sit down under a tree. It's literally what they do. And that's what Clinton means.
Starting point is 00:47:18 You know how that's Clinton on the hill again, ironic? My argument was just that if there's a female sheep. Oh, he was a girl sheep. True. And I've got, Daniel. What was your one, Dan? That I'm the only person that grew up on a farm and I've delivered, I've had my hand inside
Starting point is 00:47:33 a sheep before delivering it, delivering a baby sheep. Why are you laughing? I just, what farmers do sometimes when the sheep's... You're not a farmer. You're not qualified to do that. You're a 15 year old boy. Do you reckon when the sheep looked at the other sheep, they were like, he, is he qualified? Is he qualified to be doing this?
Starting point is 00:47:51 I watch the farmer first. Did the farmer know you were doing it? Yes! I'd just go on to his farm and go, where's the first sheep? Jesus, Clint. For goodness sake. End this break. It's been a shocker from start to finish.
Starting point is 00:48:05 Clint, Megan Dan. The celebrity status of those well-known around the world. A-B-C. This morning, boys, up for the A-B- or C list is Jack Black, Lisa Kudrow, and Charlie's Theron. Oh, wow. Okay, so here's the thing. I'd read this every week because I seem to be the stickler
Starting point is 00:48:31 and the person that is the gatekeeper for the A-list, which I think there's just too many people in there. There's not many people in the world on the A-list. There just isn't. We're too free and easy with the A-list. I do think Jack Black needs to be in there. Jack Black's A. I don't think there's an A in there in that list.
Starting point is 00:48:48 You don't think there's an A-W? Jack Black. He's A. He's A. I have to argue on that he's absolutely an A-List. So what you're saying that Jack Black, I mean, he's a great actor, he's very funny. I love the man. I'm saying Jake Black is as good as Nicole Kidman. Let me finish.
Starting point is 00:49:02 I don't think he is up there with Beyonce, with Brad Pitt, with other people, like so many famous A-list. It's only because he comes to New Zealand so often that maybe it makes him seem more accessible. What A-list movie has he ever done? Natural Libre, Jumanji, Minecraft. They're all shitters.
Starting point is 00:49:24 And it's also tenacious D. School of Rock. School of Rock was his biggest one. Yeah, but which was at least 20 years ago. He's not an A-lister guys. He's a B-lister. Does an A-lister have to have a certain amount of net worth, do we think? No, well, we've never done that before.
Starting point is 00:49:40 I know, but do you think if you're super famous, then you would obviously be mega-rich? His net worth is 50 million. I think the thing is, you know the name. You say Jack Black. Everyone goes, oh, yeah. Jake Black. You know his voice.
Starting point is 00:49:52 If you just heard his voice, you know it. He also, like, the best song in the world. Like, Tenacious D, like everybody knows that song. He's massive. Yeah, but it's still, I wouldn't say it puts them into the A list. Who are the other two? Okay, so we'll debate Jack Black as we're getting a few people saying, no way, he's a B. Yeah, I agree with Dan.
Starting point is 00:50:07 I think they're all at least a B, maybe C. Lisa Codro. Yes. Friends character, Phoebe. The fact that I'm having to context her, just for everyone makes me think she isn't an A. No. Put her at a B. Lisa at a B.
Starting point is 00:50:21 I would put her at a C. She was in the most famous TV show of all time. In the world. The most famous. My daughter is watching it for the third time, the whole series, and she's only 10. She knows who she is. I genuinely don't think Lisa could. If she's probably the least famous of all the five or six friends.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Yeah, but I still think she's a B-Lissa based on the fact that she was part of the Friends cast, the most famous show. I would agree with you there, Clint. And the final one is Charlie's Theron. C. No, what? to me she's actually more like a status like A-lister I won't put her as A but I She's one of the greatest
Starting point is 00:50:57 She's got a funny name that always hinders your Recall I think for a lot of people They go Charlie's they're on And then people trying to put a face to the name No I think we've got two C's and a B there I genuinely think that I'm gonna I think I go B Someone else has texted through who the F is that Charlie guy
Starting point is 00:51:18 So at least they're on you. If you've seen Apex on Netflix, she's the female lead. But again, if I'm contacting her, I don't think I can go A, I might have to go B. But that could just be one person's text. Jack Black, Lisa Kudrow, Charlie's Theron. You can text us 3, 3, 4, 3. I'll give us call. Oh, 800 the edge.
Starting point is 00:51:36 Oh, is this the first one we're debating all three? Can we not agree on one person? Oh, you guys are agreeing? You're boring. Yeah, we are going ABB. But I tell you what, there's not an A on there. I hand on heart think that. I'm going ABB.
Starting point is 00:51:48 Yeah, we're the same. Yeah. Clint, Megan Dan. You cannot decide this morning. All right, we're going through Jack Black, Lisa Kudrow and Charlie's Theron for A, B or C-Lister. When it comes to fame, remember. We're not taking into account talent or anything like that. It's just fame.
Starting point is 00:52:08 I will say Jack Black, his net worth 50 million. Lisa Coedro, 130 million. Charlis Theron, $200 million. She commands a paycheck of $10 million per blockbuster. 150 nominations in her life. Ash London is coming through from the afternoon show. She agrees. None of them are an A.
Starting point is 00:52:29 I think we've got two Cs and a B. Two Cs? I think we're agreeing on Lisa Cudrow. I think most people are agreeing she's a C. Should we put her in there first? Everyone knows who she is because she's a friend's character. I think they know Phoebe. They don't know Lisa Cudrow.
Starting point is 00:52:47 Okay, whoa, hold on. Okay, that's interesting. So you're separating the character from the celebrity. So you're saying Phoebe from friends to get in the B list, but Lisa Cudrow is a C. Can you separate them? Possibly, yeah. But I don't think people go,
Starting point is 00:53:01 who's Lisa Cudra again? What's she doing? What about Jack Black? Yo, what's up? I'm Jack Black, and I'm here to say, otherwise! Carissa, what do you reckon? Jack Black?
Starting point is 00:53:11 A or B? He's definitely an A. I think he's an A. And as soon as my son who's 11 heard, he's like, he's from school to rock. So straightaway, he's an A. If I 11-year-old knows him from back then, even though it's an old movie, he'd a day.
Starting point is 00:53:25 He transcends, yeah, age demographics as well with the Minecraft movie. Okay, there's a vote for A. Justin? No, sorry, guys, I have to agree Jack Black's a B. I mean, yes, he's got a famous name, but if you think about the famous movies, you can't put him in, like, a, Tom Cruise, or, like, those high-level sort of people that have made billionaire box blockbusters.
Starting point is 00:53:47 I agree with you, Justin. There's nothing wrong with the B list. It's a very good list to be on. He's not an A, though. He's been in a blockbust. He was in the holiday. That was a blockbuster movie. Many years ago.
Starting point is 00:53:57 Kane, morning. Morning. Okay, what do you reckon, Kane? What are we doing with Jack first? Jack Black is definitely an A. Like, if you say his name, everybody knows him. And he's in School of Rock. Like, the A is clasters.
Starting point is 00:54:13 If you say the name, you know it, right? And everybody knows Jack Black. Yeah, I think if I went to. around 100 people today and said, who's Jack Black? I feel like as long as 90% of people know, maybe 95%. And I think they would. That puts you in the A list. I don't know why we're just saying that the School of Rock was the best movie ever.
Starting point is 00:54:30 Great film, man. That's a good movie. And Jody, your thoughts? Jody. Oh, hi. Hey, babe. What do we reckon? Charlie's 100% she has to be A-B, but let's go B.
Starting point is 00:54:48 Wise. It's a tough one, Jody. There's people like me and you who are fighting for. for Charlie's to be an A, but it's far and few in between that are people, you know, not enough of us. I agree with your husband who's just text at Meg. Says Jackson A, Dan's a D. I don't even know.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Is that my husband? I don't know if that this guy. I'd be happy to be on the D list, to be honest. Okay. Okay, well. A lot of texts. Charlie's getting a few A's, way more A's than Phoebe. But there's also people saying that they don't know who she is,
Starting point is 00:55:19 so that defaults her to a B. I agree. I think Charlie is a B. Okay, Charlie's unfortunately Lisa Kudrow is a C Jack. Wait, no, me. Does the maths.
Starting point is 00:55:31 The thing is she takes so long to do it, Clint. Yeah, but you're just going to say B. Have you read through them all? No, I'm waiting for you. I would say Jack as an A with all the texts that are coming through. Okay, and Phoebe?
Starting point is 00:55:45 Phoebe's a C. Oh, Lisa Cootro. She's in there with Whoopi Goldberg. She's got another woman, though. Whoopi will be stoked for that. Alec Baldwin, Whippy Goldberg. Lisa Kudra. I'm Cindy Sweeney's in there as well.
Starting point is 00:55:57 Oh, you know what? I'm happy to be... We've made a compromise with Jack there, and I think you know what? The other two were rightfully in their place. Wow, so we've got one of each. Jack A, Charlis, B, Lisa Kudrow C.
Starting point is 00:56:09 That was the final verdict. Yeah, that's a close one with Jack, though. Like, literally, it's like when we said he was a B, it's like all the A's suddenly came through that people find him for him. It's a hard one. Nathan thinks Jack Black's such a cheesy. He would reject the A-less party invite
Starting point is 00:56:20 and say, no, I'm in the wrong room and go to the B? Do you think he'd say B himself? It's such a inless behavior, though. He's humble. Climbing and Dan. While rummaging through the boxes in Dan's mom's basement, found was not only a Dan's diary,
Starting point is 00:56:34 but a musical written by the young virgin. And now, much to the disdain of the adult Dan, Meg is making nightmares come true and bringing the production to life for one night only. 20 days from today, 29th of June. Hook, the musical, is happening. We all have our roles in yesterday. I wasn't here, but you guys officially put the tickets on sale.
Starting point is 00:56:56 The posters had been made. You are the star, Dan. Oh, what a joy to be known as the pin-up star to this amateur dramatic musical. Yeah, we're putting this together for Dan because he wrote it when he was 15. Not that I asked. No. But we, you know, we're cutting you. We were just like, how sad that you wrote this whole musical when you were a kid and you didn't have enough friends.
Starting point is 00:57:17 You needed three others to make you a reality. I mean, Clint, I think you and I really long for the ride, if we're honest. Meg, the beautiful friend that she is. She's taken this upon herself. She's got the script. She's, you know, added a little bit of meagism to it as well. Just a touch, 10%. So it's in 20 days' time.
Starting point is 00:57:34 Yeah. And tickets went on sale yesterday for $10 a pop. I can officially say, we have sold out. We have sold out. We have sold out yesterday at about 6 o'clock. And then, you know, normally that's good news. I'd imagine if you're putting on a show and the first show sells out, you should be celebrating pop and the champagne and stuff.
Starting point is 00:57:52 here's the thing, we haven't rehearsed once. No. Like usually when you sell a show, you've got the show. It feels exciting because you're like, yes, they're going to love it, but we actually don't know what you're going to go see yet. No. Shannon is texting, oh my God, my wife and I have bought tickets. We have done some amazing things in our eight years together.
Starting point is 00:58:13 But we were both giggling on the phone together just now saying, this is my far the coolest thing that we have done so far. Bless you, Shannon. We are such big fans. and we are so flipping excited. Let's go. Well, I can't wait to meet you. Yeah, she messaged me after that
Starting point is 00:58:26 and said her wife is the female version of Dan, and then she said in bracket, scary, I know. So I'm excited to see you two meet for the first time. Oh God, we'll be a good little mess, the two of us. I can't wait to meet everybody. Because I think people that have forked out money to come along to this
Starting point is 00:58:42 will be super listeners of the show. Also, can I say, you know how like an actor when they're trying to find their thing and they might have this weird thing they do with their hand or with their lip? Because they're trying to stand out. Dan's trialling this thing, Meg, where hook is really spitty. He spits a lot when he's...
Starting point is 00:58:58 And I do a lot of my sins with him, so I'm not too keen on that. No, but that's... No, I am a method... Like, I've done... I've got a theatre background. I've done a many musical over my time. I've played Jean Valjean and Le Ma Miz. I've played Riff in West Side Story.
Starting point is 00:59:11 I've paid Simba in the Lion King. Did you get Simba? Yeah. Good for you. And I spit a lot when I sing, because you have to enunciate. And so the people in the front row are going to get a... a wet and wild experience.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Yeah, splash zone for the front row. And because I have seen the stage, do you guys remember how close everyone is when we sell out? Yeah. We were kind of hoping we wouldn't sell out because we'd have more room. It is very intimate now. We're sold out to the point that we're halfway
Starting point is 00:59:36 out the stage at the chairs. Yeah. As you know, when you've been to Spark Arena, you're like, man, this is full. That's what it's going to be like. Yeah, there's definitely no spare spots now anymore. We have filled it to capacity. It is sold out.
Starting point is 00:59:49 We're going to have to see what. It says one night only. I assume that is what's happening even though we're sold out. Yeah, just doing the one. And I'd like to think that maybe they might have reserved some tickets for giveaways in the lead-up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:01 Oh, mate, I'm going to have to drink so much pirate rum before I go on stage. Loomshime. Yeah. Holy shit. You made it the whole way through. If you want more, find them on Instagram at Edge Breakfast.
Starting point is 01:00:12 See you tomorrow. And then if that's not enough, check out our only fans, podcast it is. Rover. Music, radio, podcasts. Thank you.
