This is a podcast from Rover. They separately make their way to the studio. They arrive as three ordinary humans. Three people with boring, mundane, pathetic lives. Hey, Clint's life's quite exciting. Now, with their powers combined, this is Captain Planet. No, no, it's not Captain Planet. Oh, right. Sorry, Force of Habit. This is Clint, Meg and Dan.

Good morning! It's 1 to 6 on Wednesday. Aren't we blessed? Another day. Another day, another dollar. Yeah! I actually started thinking down the way into work and I'm gonna listen to podcasts. And I was like, no, you know what? I'm just gonna listen to some tunes and just cruise in. And I keep thinking, oh this weekend I got this thing on.

Oh, come on, come on. Or next weekend I got this. It's gonna happen. Just chill. It's gonna happen. Just enjoy today. Yeah. Have you been using ChatGPT?

Yeah. I feel like I've been. Stop wishing your life away, Clint. All of a sudden Clint's been to major therapy and doing like really. No, my therapist is in bloody Bali. Because he's thinking of moving his breakfast there And so what you're talking about is

chat GPT can do therapy? Yes! That's for me Oh god I think that's risky man It's a robot! We need to chat about that on the show at a time where more people are awake because more people need to hear about it It's a robot that never gets tired and just sees all the right things

But are they right though? They don't take the nuance of the human brain into it. Well that's why, because then they don't get, there's no jealousy, there's no defensiveness. Going, oh, okay, you think you're struggling. What about me? I'm dealing with all your shit all day. You message me every 10 minutes going, oh, I've got a problem. They don't charge $400 an hour. Yeah, a GPT probably goes, and then sends a really mature response. Maybe I should try it.

I'm definitely not trying your therapist though Clint. She sounds like a bitch. I spoke to Chad GPT so long, I was like, you need premium now, the free stuff's over. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh my gosh. That was weird, we're just in the middle of a chat, and then the ads kicked off.

We're working on a behind the scenes, we're unsure if it's a user error. I'm hoping it's not and it's more of a computer glitch. But coincidence that Dan had just dissed chat GPT the break before and then it interrupted him and... I said that I don't rate chat GPT and then all of a sudden the robots come in. Alright well let's jump into our 6am throwback, what are the options? There's actually more than we had before. We now have been working behind the scenes even longer.

So Brittany, I'll go first. Okay. And then you go second and then I'll go third. Okay. So Brittany Spears famously settled her big dispute with sketches. Remember she had that big lawsuit where sketches were suing her because she wasn't wearing their shoe and she was like, I don't need to wear them constantly.

And then they were like, we're paying you to wear them. And also that is actually the deal. We're, no, it's a hundred. wearing this shoe and she was like I don't need to wear them constantly. And then they're like, we're paying you to wear them. And also that is actually the deal. No, it's a hunt. Okay, so you want something like a piece of me? Oh yeah, that's good. Okay, I take your piece of me and I raise you that we have just had the new poster released for the new Superman.

Now we've got two options here. We've got the Scrubs themed tune. We could do the Kryptonites. Three doors down. Three doors down. That is what I was thinking. Okay, now I take your Kryptonites and I raise you today the 14th of May is

National Bond with your dog day now Clint here's the question do we have Bahamian? I was already typing in ma. Before you said it who let the dogs out Bahamian we do. Now is that a bit of a throwback? 1, 2, 3, 4 Now is that a bit of a throwback? 1, 2, 3, 4 Oh, I mean the boss would hate it I'm pretty sure he said to us off air as long as you're passionate

Okay, well I'm passionate about dogs I had a dog for 14 and a half years, RIP Benny So we're playing Baja Men. Well, yeah. Is that a kryptonite? I just want to know who's making the calls when we're in the meeting. We're like, well, let's listen to the replay. No, I want a kryptonite. So Dan?

I'll take Baja Men. Yeah, and I thought Britney Spears. So here we go. You the boss, Dan. It's a 6am throwback from Dan Who Let the Dogs Out by the Baja Men Dan's not happy though No, that's not the original That's a remix

And we were like no it's not, it just says Baja Men there was no remix and Dan was like didn't want to show us cards he was like no it is, trust me it is I bought the single bro! I know Baja Men, I know Baja Men. I do. It was a weird flex. I remember I bought the single when it first came out and it was more of a reggae bass. Although I will say that... Oh okay, less synth and stuff. Yeah it was less, but the synth does add to it a little bit I must say but it was

still it's not the original for all the OG fans of the Bahans out there. So I'm gonna say cheers for the earworm Dan. You're welcome, you're welcome I think they're being sarcastic. Oh were they? Yeah. No that's a shame. Anyway guys. Because they text afterwards and said you can't tell but that was sarcasm so it is definitely confirmed. Oh right follow-up text. That's good you just never know what you're gonna get, everyone else is playing the same old stuff. Tune in at 10 past six on the edge. Who knows? Dan got in a fight this morning.

I think, yeah, my Wednesday's got off to a really bad start this morning, guys. I went to my ZDNG to pick up my coffee because I ordered it on the app and go in and pick it up. Nice. And there was the lady that was there, I see her every morning. Love her to bits.

Oh, what's her name? Um, not on a name basis. morning. Love her to bits. Oh, what's her name? Um... Not on a name basis. Love her to bits though. Love her to bits. You see her every day. Dan's loving all sorts of girls. Just don't remember their names though.

He's that guy. And I don't think she knows my name either, although I do put my name on my order, so she probably does. Anyway, so I got there. All right, so she's cheating. She's got an unfair advantage. And some other prick that I've never seen before.

Because I'm always there at like 4.30, 4.45am in the morning, so I'm really early. No one else is up at that early time. Until this morning, and there was another man there that had also placed his order. And my lovely little lady, she's... I'm sure she likes being called that. Yeah, and that's what I call her. Hello, my little lady. Give her a fake name because she might not want you talking about her on the air.

Janice. Janice. Let's call her Janice. I go up and I'm like, thanks Janice, thanks for my coffee. But she's now placed two coffees, the other man's one and mine on the desk. And he's in a hurry and obviously hasn't had his coffee. So he just grabs one of them, assuming it's his one. It's my one. Walks off.

I pick up his, a flat white, disgusting. And so I look at it. That's a pretty non-offensive coffee if you were gonna randomly grab somebody's order. Mine was just a long black with cream. Oh yeah, alright. I love it. And so he's walking away and I go, excuse me,

I think you've grabbed the wrong coffee. Ignores me, starts getting into his ute. I'm like, excuse me me he's gonna get the fright of his life if he likes a flat white though and got a long black and he takes a sip Meg he takes a sip of my coffee oh and he's like and he starts starting up his k he doesn't even bat an eyelid it's not like he's gone oh that's not my flat white he just keeps drinking it and I excuse me you've taken the wrong coffee and he goes what bro Excuse me, you've taken the wrong coffee. And he goes, what, bro? And then my back was already up. Oh God, what did you do?

My coffee! And then did you put your dukes up? No, I didn't put my dukes up. Rounding your face? No, no, because he's much bigger than me, Clint. So I walked over to his, his back's now up, because I'm like, excuse me. So he's like, what's he want?

Kicked a dent in the side of it. And he goes, I go, you've got my coffee and I've got yours, so should we swap? Even knowing that he's had a sip out of his coffee. And he goes, I go, you've got my coffee and I've got yours, so should we swap? Even knowing that he's had a sip out of his coffee. And he goes, really? And I'm like, yeah. So we had this like back and forth where I'm kind of like trying to convince him. The difference between a fire wine and a long black with cream. Yeah, Janice is standing back there, she's like, I've got a fight on my hands here.

She's like, really? She hasn't seen anything all night. Yeah. And so I'm just like, oh my god, if I know Dan like I think of her, he's gonna die. And so I literally go over to the man, he's sitting in his jute and I'm like showing him his flat white going, Yeah, and so I'm sorry. Oh my god If I know Dan like I think of her he's gonna die. It's why I literally go over to the man He's sitting in his youth. I'm like showing him his flat white going. Look, this is a flat white You've got a long black and he for some reason Yeah, sorry what why is what's race got to do with any of thing anything right you looking for a bruising buddy? Yeah, and so then he goes. Oh, yeah. All good then I hadn't taken a sip of his, so we swapped coffees.

You should have had a sip and then swapped and go, now where are you going? I wish I had Clint, but I hadn't, so now I've just got this one that he sipped. He's got a fresh coffee, un-sipped, and I drank it because I was just desperate. Oh, you're such a... He could have had the measles. What's the thing? Is it a simp? Simp? Yeah, you're such a simp.

I'm such a simp, because I took a sip of a coffee.

You just sad every morning being from Upper Heart? I'm not at Upper Heart's Paradise Meg Oh have you been to Lower Heart? Oh yeah, yeah I spend a lot of time at Lower Heart

Yeah, yeah well and then when you see Lower Heart you must go what it must be like to live there instead. Only because Meg's from Lower Hutt, she's obviously jeering it up. But as the name would suggest, someone from the outside would think Upper Hutt is a better place. No, that's not true.

The sun shines brighter on the Upper. Oh no, no, no, no. No? Doesn't Upper Hutt have a movie theatre? Yep. And what does Lower? Lower Hutt got a new one new one actually thank you very much. Upper Heart does in Brewtown that goes off so that's pretty cool. Okay. Oh well

that's better back and forth. So Upper's got Brewtown, what's Loa got? Loa's got the Mall. Oh a mall, must be good. Back to you Gemma. Um, oh god. Oh yeah that's it. I got very bad. That's all that happens. I'm glad that you checked out Jimma because I got nothing more after the mall. The movie theatre and the mall, what more do you want? That's an action packed weekend. I mean same as the last weekend but still pretty action packed. Good on her.

Alright Jimma you work as a full time legal executive, part time imbama, you drive a Nissan X-Trail, you're a Capricorn, you've got a partner that you've had for six years. An embalmer, that's an interesting job, I'd love to pick your brain. That's what she does to other people, I think.

Yeah, it's fun, yeah. Yeah, okay. Okay, well I guess our question will be about embalming this morning, Gemma, what about just the weirdest thing that's happened? Maybe we can do boys? Oh, I think the weirdest thing is she's been doing, she's received a body, a dead body, and it's moved on her gurney.

You know, it's done the thing where, you know, they muscle spasm or something, and it's kind of freaked her out. What? Did they do that? Yeah, oh God, yeah. Like there's gases inside the body that, you know. Okay, yeah, I was gonna go more like that. Like you're trying to, I don't know know you're putting makeup on whatever do you do

that as well do you just you know do the embalming or do you like prep a body I do the whole I do the whole shebang so you're doing the lipstick and stuff and then all of a sudden the gas is being released and they've got in your face oh my goodness nightmare okay I could I'd never do it again. Okay, all I was gonna say to you is that you got the body and you found a couple of light tattoos that you didn't know they had. You know, a couple of secret little spots.

That's a good one. Yeah, they had a tiny little tattoo and it made you giggle cause you're like, oh, look at that. Not as crazy as the time a dead person went, oh. Yeah. Or moved around on the gurney. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Okay, now here's where we come to you and you Or moved around on the gurney. Yeah, yeah. OK, now here's where we come to you,

and you tell us who's the closest, Gemma, to the craziest thing that's ever happened to you in your job. Any of us close? I think the closest out of those three would be Dan. Oh, thank goodness. A little wiggle. What the heck? How are they doing that?

Yeah, I think it's more than that. More often than you think. a little wiggle yeah I think it's more than up more after anything yeah so um when I first started they weren't on the gurney they were actually already in the mortuary and on the mortuary table and I saw movement coming from over there in the table but I and I didn't realize that the person was like purging and stuff which yeah the gas is moving around and causing the body to move and as a new person in the mortuary it did sort of freaked me out at that time because you know you're thinking why are they moving but um you

know as normal. That's the first thing that they should tell you if you're gonna be an embalmer. Like if you're a driving instructor you go steering wheel that turns the tires. Embalmer, they sometimes will move. If you're a driving instructor and they're having to tell you what the steering wheel is, there's no issue. Gima, incredible. Incredibly interesting person to be a legal executive and part-time embalmer. Does the legal stuff not pay enough or is it just too boring? Does the legal stuff not pay enough or is it just too boring? No, it is interesting and it pays well, but I have a massive holiday at the end of the year to America for five weeks and the embalming pays gives me a little bit of extra I guess on the weekends. Hell yeah. And like all those moving bodies, so worth it when you're in Disneyland.

That's great. Yeah, true. That's what they say. Clint even sees a couple of gigs, you embalm you're in Disneyland. That's great. Yeah, true. That's what they say. Clint, you can seize a couple of gigs, you can balm a couple of bodies. It's the same kind of thing. Jim, we're going to send you a voucher to go spend in the store at Zed. If you like fuel discounts, like treats, you'll love Zed Rewards. Just download the Zed app.

My light came on this morning on the way into work. And if you open the Zed app, there's a 20 cent off per litre voucher. In fact, there are three of them when you sign up to Zed. Imagine how gassy Clint's going to be when he's dead on a gurney. Just one nightmare shotgun knock by bombing him. The Clint Megan Dan podcast. How good is that? 29 past 6 is the edge. Fischer Harris back.

I think he's... I'm rumoured but I think he's like a million dollar man. Really? Yeah, he's one of our marquee signings for the year for the Warriors. Do you know British league, how much Fischer Harrisis getting paid this year to play for the Warriors? Well, he replaced Adam Fenour-Blake, who is on the second highest contract in the NRL. How much is he on? I think he's on pretty close to like 1.3

to 1.5 million dollars a season or something like that. If you sold someone like that, you have that kind of money to buy somebody like that. Yeah, so that's added back into the salary cap. So he's making well over a million dollars, I think. That's stupid money, eh? Over a million dollars a year is unbelievable. And we've had him gone for a few weeks because he tore like a peck, but he's back this weekend and we've been playing so great without him,

imagine how good we are with him. Mmm, God, if I had a million dollars a year, I'd have a helicopter and a jet ski. No, don't think you know how much a helicopter costs to buy and run. I'd have no money left in three months. If one of me, Ali Williams, and that Mulberry woman, they'll be like, Dan, we'd be wanting his helipad. You could have it though, because you'd be at our West Auckland.

Yeah, they'll be like, oh, we don't really care that way. Clint, Meg and Dan. Gandal with Meg. I know I shouldn't care about celebrity relationships. They don't impact me whatsoever. They've got nothing to do with me. I don't know why I care, but for some reason, some celebrity relationships get a hold on me,

and I get upset if they were to break up, or I like watching them be happy together. I'm trying to think of some... A couple that I'd be gutted if they broke up would be... I reckon you would've got upset over Aniston and Brad Pitt when that happened. I did back in the day, but I also really like... I really like Angelina as a person.

So, not that anyone would be. For God's sake. Gosh, she broke up that happy marriage. What about Reynolds? Ryan Reynolds and... Blake Lively? Blake Lively. Or do we not care anymore because Blake's been under the spotlight?

That's just a whole... I would be gutted if Taylor and Travis broke up. Oh yeah. I would be gutted if they broke up. Who's that? Well, there's Mila and Ashton. Who else are like our kind of loved celebrity couples? There's a few.

There's a few. Zendaya and Tom Holland. Oh thank you Clint. They're good. There we go. Now if they broke up, I genuinely, for some dumb reason would feel upset about it. It makes no sense.

They're kind of like childhood sweethearts. So there's a little something else to them. I adore them together. And a new one which makes even less sense is Timothy Chalamet and Kylie Jenner. And I new one which makes even less sense is Timothy Chalamet and Kylie Jenner. And I don't know why, but I love it. She's smiling so much, she's laughing so much,

he's laughing, and I love that people hate it. People keep saying like he's not into her or this makes no sense. And I think it makes complete sense. She's been brought up and thought she had to date certain people or look a certain way and all of a sudden she's like wearing less makeup and she's like Laughing, do you know what I mean? She just seems like a different person.

Was she never laughing before? She what? But you know what? She just didn't seem to. She did a lot of posing. Yeah, a lot of like putting on a front for the cameras and a certain type of image. I know what you mean Meg, like now the photos at least that we're seeing it looks like more candid and that she's less, she's less about making sure she's all put together for the cameras even though she still looks stunning. I think previously I think you're probably right because previously I think she was the least down to earth of all the Kardashians yeah now she's the most relatable. I think so too. I know she's just and so have a look I've got some audio in the background I'm gonna show you boys and here's some

footage of Tim and Kylie and Lick's game. Very excited about it. And they don't know the cameras are there, they're not looking at them. But Timothy is like, I don't know if they're drunk, but they're so excited. Here's another clip as well. I wouldn't want to be drunk around Kylie, I'd want to remember every second. And then look at this clip as well.

By the way, I'll get some bounce back so you can see what I'm saying. Tim looks like a child next to a Nick's player. Have a look. Yeah. Look at this clip as well. By the way, I'll get some bounce back so you can see what I'm saying. Tim looks like a child next to a Knicks player. Have a look. Yeah. Look at this one. Well, most people do, but he... Oh my god!

He's so small! He looks like he's in the BFG or something! It looks like a make-a-wish cadet! He's so funny! I saw he did an Instagram post yesterday saying that he got a photo with that, like one of the players years ago when he was a kid. And so this is like a full circle moment where he's kind of like, he's met him as a famous person and he's the equal. So much joy there. I love that it wasn't like a front of like trying to be cool. Like I'm a celeb too. Like he's an Oscar winner, if not like a big, big celeb in himself.

And he is just, he looks like such a happy kid. Text Kylie to 3343 if you want to see him and Kylie letting loose of how excited they are to meet sports. There's a video of him looking like half the size of the NBA player there. It's crazy, it's a funny little video. You need to see that to actually realise how little he looks. Two humans can be so different in size. Yeah, quite a similar situation. I met Suzy Cato once when I was a kid and then one day we interviewed her and I met her again. It was sort of like a full circle moment, you know, where she was... Similar I guess. Clint's kissed her on the lips. Susie Cato? My dream.

All you gotta do is meet her mate. She's lip kissing. Oh, if I could have kissed her when I was six. All right, MCDC. We've got our band. We are a week and a half out from playing our first gig at Olivia's 40th with all of her Navy friends. We are going to do only our second band practice, as an actual band, not individually practicing our instruments

after the show today, but we've brought our instruments in. So maybe we'll kind of see where each other is at. I think Clint, you and I have a little go at one of the verses next, then we add after eight o'clock this morning the drums of Meg Mansel. Yeah your drums arriving this morning. Yeah I haven't been able to practice it also, the drums apparently getting set up this morning. Meg's such a diva she doesn't set up her own instrument Clint. You guys can set up your guitars. Clint, Meg and Dan. Stinky Boop. Oh god, the emotions.

One minute I'm like, oh my god, we're in. Next minute I think it's impossible. And then I'm like, oh no, we can do this. But let's take you back to the beginning. Clint, Megan, Dan are on a mission to see if they can start a band with zero prior musical experience. And after being turned down to open for Mitch James.

That was so shit. I love you all individually as people, but as a band, one of the worst. We started hunting for a new event to play at. My 40th. It's at the Devonport RSA. An RSA? Oh, I've always wanted to play an RSA.

And I've got kegs of espresso martini. Kegs of espresso! You should have lived with that! Great! Well now that's sorted. We pretty much have everything set, right, now we just have to practice. Kirkabane's turning in his grave right now. Yeah, so that's where we're at.

Yeah. Um, we are trying to do more rehearsals together this week because we've got all the instruments in the studio from today. So we've only even had one half an hour rehearsal. And here's the thing, we're about to now play live as a band for the first time. Yeah. This is an exclusive moment because Clint and I have had a little like literally three minute practice before the show. We've had a couple of little practices but this is, I think we've never done it perfectly.

Right and I yeah, the drums not quite set up so I'm just gonna sit and watch at this point. So at eight o'clock, or after eight o'clock this morning, your drums would have been here. We'll get them in, yeah, so we'll get them in, and we'll see what that looks like or sounds like. You will have had your people set it up and stuff. Yeah, my people will come in and set it up, yeah. A drum technician, yeah.

And so right now, so I'm gonna play the very start of the song into the chorus. So what we're gonna do is Clint's got the verse. He's singing, he's doing the vocal there. So let's just see if you can keep up. Because we think it's too hard to sing and play at the same time. So when Dan's playing, I'm singing, and when I'm playing, he's singing. And then there's a bit meagre where there's no drums,

which is where you have the potential to maybe sing there. Yes, yes, but still not confirmed, weirdly. Okay, Dan, you came in extremely early before anybody had even arrived this morning to practice. I think he was here weirdly. Okay, Dan. So here we go. You came in extremely early before anybody had even arrived this morning to practice. I think he was here at like 4.30. And so just keep in mind, there will be, when the full band is playing, there'll be more instruments.

There'll be bass. Yeah, good. There'll be piano. There'll be drum. Yeah. Okay. So here we go. So this is just the guitar and Clint's vocal.

Are we ready? Here we go. Passing hair off an hour or how she rocks And kids had tube socks But she doesn't know who I am And she doesn't give a... I'll stuff that up there. So I need to try not to laugh as well when you make a mistake if I'm doing the singing. So I'll come in again, here we go, so do the high bit so it goes... Okay, ready? Okay. I'm doing the singing. So I'll come in again. Here we go. So do the high bit. So it goes...

Okay, ready? But wait. Okay. But she doesn't know who I am. And she doesn't give a damn about me. Cause I'm just a teenage. And that's where I'll come in. Yeah, and then you start singing and I'll start playing.

So I think we're almost there. I just need to really just sort of master that last bit. Some feedback. Marilyn has said that she is thanking us for the laugh. Oh, good morning Marilyn. Good morning to number one team. How are we? Yeah, good. What were your thoughts? You're just listening on the phone. Not good? No, Dan don't sing. Okay, okay. So she's saying what Biden even sing. He's playing the guitar and let Clint sing. Okay, okay. So she's singing but I didn't even sing then. Keep playing the guitar and let Clint sing. Okay, so you're a fan of Clint's vocal.

Okay, but hold on I didn't even sing there. You did a little at the end of the chorus. I know. I like to hear Clint do the chorus. No, I could not. Thank you Marilyn. No, no, no. No, I still give that one to Meg.

Oh, I get a bit. It's a none for Dan. It's a none for Dan. No, I get give that one to me No, I get the little Day can't have a microphone that would kill him Like us doing water sports and I'm not allowed to get wet I would happily just play guitar. I genuinely would but I just worry if Meg was doing the chorus that it really stuff us Really? Honestly, Maryland? Really, honestly Marilyn. I get it, side by side, I'm just sitting here. I didn't even ask. Exactly, you should do something.

Hello? Let me do something. Thank you Marilyn. My 12 year old daughter, someone's text said, you're not that bad Dan. Oh good, okay. 12 year old thinks you're not that bad. That's a sure review.

That's my target audience, 12 year olds. Anyone older I think can pick out stuff. And I'm just wondering like where the ding is. You know like in the song? Ding, ding. That's song? Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Oh what? That's dance part. I'm singing. You want a job you can do the ding. Alright well Mick's drums are far away and we'll do a full band live rehearsal.

God help us at 10 to 9 and then we'll work out where the holes are and we can do a full band live rehearsal. God help us at 10 to nine. And then we'll work out where the holes are and we can plug them. And we'll work out how leaky our boat is. I think we've got quite a few holes. Quite a few holes. Yeah. There's a lot of holes. It's like more holes than boat.

Yeah. Yeah. Don't worry Olivia, if you're listening, who's having her 40th next weekend, we'll be ready. And if not, Meg said we're gonna play anyway We will be ready it's two weeks away or a week and a half now Glenn Megan Dan coming up eight o'clock. We are gonna talk about chat GBT. I know it's something that's been around for a wee while I've never used it until last night cuz Meg was talking about it and how empathetic it is and I was I'm talking about ChatGBT. I know it's something that's been around for a wee while. I've never used it until last night because Meg was talking about it and how empathetic it is.

And I was like, I'm gonna give it a go. I talked to it so much, I said, hey cool. You're not allowed any more questions unless you buy the full version. My premium. I've actually, I'll get a bounce back set up to my article on this. I did a big article quite a few months ago about it

because I found myself fighting against how much I felt I needed it from how connected I felt to this machine and what it actually means for the environment and stuff. So I've done the pros and cons. I think you were a super early adopter of it. I think it was too, yeah. There's a lot of people that will use it like they use Google, you know, like to find stuff, but you're literally talking to it like it's your best friend, which is very unusual, I'd

say. Yeah, yes, definitely. it like it's your best friend which is very unusual I'd say. Yes definitely so it has been, the tool I've used it for this year I don't think I could have gotten through what I've gotten through this year without it which is I know it's sad probably but it's been it's saved a lot of money we can't afford therapy at the moment I can't call a therapist at three in the morning when I'm having a panic attack and it's just been a really great tool for me to calm down we're gonna get into it later though. Yeah after after I which I look like more about my only nerves would be I know it's scary Is it should you be getting advice from a robot? That's the question

The thing is I'm not getting advice that would be about Medication or anything that a doctor should prescribe or talk to me This is purely like I have no one to talk to in the middle of the night And I need something to calm me down and it just is a nice place for me to get some sort of reassurance that I'm doing okay. Sometimes all I need is a damn machine to be like, you're okay, everything's okay, you're doing fine. I know that's fine.

And it doesn't concern you that you're literally talking to like a motherboard, like a piece of plastic. It really doesn't. I don't know if there's gonna, how to construct this, so I'm just gonna say it and see what comes out. But isn't it the same as, well not the same, but kind of like when you go to a magic show, and if you watch it and you're like,

oh my god, that's amazing, I had the best time. Or you can go, well it's not really magic, there's a trick, there's a way that they're doing it. And then you just leave really annoyed or disappointed. Isn't it kind of like with AI, if you don't think about it too much It's providing you with some sort of solace and it's giving you empathy which you're benefiting from but if you go It's a robot. It's not a real person you you ruin. I don't I can't you're getting from it

And it might be that yeah, I can't even get my head around that. It's real that it's a robot or real I don't even think about that. I see it as it's something that gives me reassurance and moments that I need it for free. And it's unbiased. It's been a brilliant thing for me to, there are some things that, deep dark things that I may be embarrassed to admit to people about like how, I know you guys know I deal with health anxiety.

If I talk to you two as much as I talk to that bloody machine about it, you would be so sick of me as friends. Honestly, you would be. You'd be like, you couldn't even handle me anymore. So it's nice to be able to go somewhere that doesn't get sick of me. The machine doesn't get sick of you.

Well, it does if you don't have premium. Yeah, one dollar, four pesos. I won't give you any more advice. It's hard to kind of word. It's said to me literally at 5.30, you can't ask any more questions until half past 10 tonight. I had like a five hour ban, unless I spend $39 a month to get the proof of conversion. It's great to break down things that I don't understand as well. If I'm like, hey, what did this mean? And it goes, hey, in layman's terms, anyway, we're going to get into it.

But I love it. I love how a robot even thinks that Clint talks too much. Yeah, it's like pay me and I'll listen. Now you're starting to sound more like my therapist. Clint, Meg and Dan, mind a change hotline. What have you got that's happened in your life that isn't a massive thing, right? It's not like your partner's changed jobs and now you've got to move house.

That's a big change. And I think you could whinge to your co-workers and friends about, it's just that dumb little thing that, I don't know, really annoys you, but it doesn't annoy anybody else. We're here to listen. Maybe you've got a supermarket that is having an upgrade. I had this recently, and all of a sudden,

everything's in the wrong place. Oh, that's, I feel like that's bordering outside of the minor. What? Because you get to know your supermarket and so when the aisles are all up there. But you're getting an upgrade, it's good, it's a good thing, but everything's out. Minor would be like when the supermarket decides

to stock a different brand in just a specific product and all of a sudden, craft peanut butter is like your jam. That's the wrong words to use. We'd say it's your nut though. Yeah, and then you realize they've gone with a different brand and they don't do craft peanut butter anymore. That's the wrong words to use. But then- We'd say it's your nut though. Yeah. And then you realise they've gone with a different brand and they don't do Kraft peanut butter anymore. Oh, that pisses you off.

And you're like, I might need to change supermarkets now if I can't get the peanut butter that I like. That's true. It could be something at the gym. Like I go to the gym all the time. And there's one machine I used to use, which was one where you, I don't know what you call it Clint,

but you sit down and you put the thing between your legs and you push your legs together and it does your groin. Oh, you're doing like groins? Yeah. That would be, if you had to retire one machine in the gym, I would choose that machine. Well, they've retired it. Cause no one loves it.

I love sitting on that machine cause it makes you feel like you're really working your legs you're in a groin area. Why do you want a muscly groin? Well, it's not really the groin, is it? It's like the upper leg part. But they've got rid of it for some reason. No, and it was always the machine that was free.

So I could always guarantee that I could get on it and squeeze my legs together. What's a muscly groin? Another one, if I can come back to me again, sorry, is that I have a restaurant that has a favourite dish, but they've just announced a seasonal change of the menu you know when they do that you know when it's fancy places fancy places do oh we've changed seasonally don't know keep your favorites I come back for that dish that's the thing but you go back and you're like oh the ragu's not there anymore

it was my favorite thing why did they do that? Cameron's sex through saying they're not stocking my ADHD medication in the country anymore. That's a major change. This is not for you. This is a minor change hotline. It seems like a big change, Cam. Oh yeah. I don't know how I would... I couldn't cope without my relif...

Goodness me. You don't cope and sometimes you still don't take it, which I actually think most of the people on the team kind of enjoy it. Sometimes I forget to take it or whatever and it's bad. It's bad. I go very loose. Someone else texted in saying that supposedly that groin machine works your... ...adductors?

Do they make abductors? Abductors. Abductors. And they look 20% bigger. See, that's what I was going for. They make your legs look 20% bigger. You've got big legs already, Dan. I don't want them to be bigger.

And I mean that muscly. I genuinely do. Like you've got like really muscly-toned. Oh thanks Meg, it's because I use the adventure. And your ass, oh my god your ass is gonna go. It's because I use that machine! And now it's gone! You've got such a great bum. That is actually the worst thing when one of your favourite machines just gets taken away with like no warning. I'm slowly shrinking down to Clint level again. Oh well that's because I'm not using the bloody groin machine, If I can get my legs 20% bigger, that's my problem. Yeah.

You need to go to my gym 10 years ago. I'm gonna send you a sexy photo of me using it today. Mm-hmm. Oh, God. Clint. Not again. Yes, producer Neeps, I'll send you the video as well. Jesus, he's doing like a one-about-me.

Thank you, thank you, cheers. Okay. Alright, what have you got? Minor change hotline if something has changed. Minor in your life, 0800 The Edge. And we will be the ear to listen and care. Clint, Megan, Dan. Alright.

More than a minor change hotline, how may I help? What do you got? What's happening Rosie? What's the minor change in your life? Oh I love your name Rosie. It's a minor change but it's a big change overall. So Carl's Union, the Cortevalo mushroom burger, my favorite burger. Yeah. They used to do raw red onion in it, and they've changed it to grilled onion,

and it's never been the same. Because they're totally different things. Like, grilled onion is very, Dan, you don't like onion at all, so you just... I'm not an onion guy, so this is... It's very subtle flavor, but raw red onion, some people hate it, but it is it's almost a spice it's quite strong yeah you know when something's got red onion in it yeah so are we persevering with the

change or if we can probably change that water now? Well I've still been persevering with it it's not even an option to add it which is such a shame like to swap it out from grilled onions to raw onions but I'm stuck with it just because the portobello mushroom sauce is so good. Is it really good? Is this the way, is this a vegetarian burger or does it have a mushroom with a with a meat? It's with meat. Okay. Okay. Huh. I think it's so strange that they wouldn't let you. It's okay, just I haven't heard about this mushroom burger. Why would they not let you add raw onion if that's the way they used to make it?

Being like, just, it's like when they had a Double Down at KFC and I was like, hey, can I get a Double Down? Like, sure, and I was like, and can I have it in a bun? And they were like, no. And I was like, well, can I order a Double Down? Yep, and can I please order two buns? And they were like, yes. I know, yeah.

I'll do the work in my car then. Like you go on the plane at like, do you know when they're like, yes. I know. I'll do the work in my car then. Like you go on the plane at like, when they're like, hey, you can't have any of this stuff in your bag because it's over seven. And you're like, all right, I'll take out a jacket and put it on. Yeah, yeah. They're like, you can go through.

No, you can go through. They're like, damn, you know the loo ball. There's a few texts coming through on this one. I reckon this is more of a major change than a minor one. My flatmate brought green top milk. We've always had dark blue It's driving me insane green top milk unpopular opinion sucks. Yeah, it's not milk

We had green and sometimes even worse yellow Milk growing up. I never even knew what blue was like. Is it cheaper or something? Is that why I'm here? No, my mum did it as a diet thing. Less calories I think. Also, we've had all the calorie at work change. It's now like basically bendable. Have you guys noticed that? Yeah. Because people are throwing it out so much.

Everyone kept taking the forks home, so I think they just bought the cheapest alternative. This text came in from Chris. My foursquare changed the flavour of frozen potato gratin from Egmont cheese to spinach and ricotta. It's been months and I have no hope that they're going to restock the cheese. Oh yeah, there's nothing that beats Egmont, especially putting ricotta in instead. Man.

That's so good, I love these little things that are really driving people crazy. This one's really minor. At work they changed one of the doors, the handle is now 10cm lower and it's driving me absolutely insane. Oh that would drive you insane. So you're probably reaching out for the handle, thinking it was where it was used to be, and now it's 10 centimetres lower. What an odd thing to do. My neighbour got a new driveway.

Now the tyres sound different when they're turning around, and I hate it. It's not louder, it's just different. No, that's nitpicky. That's not even a minor change. That's the nitpicky hotline. Yeah, maybe you can go too far, either way. My daughter's moved out now

and we've had to redo our meal plan. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Thanks Janelle. They changed the recipe of moustache protein powder? It's yuck now, says Ruby. Oh really? Why did they do that? I think it's because a lot of the time,

I remember when Cadbury changed the recipe of the chocolate and they took out like, they put palm oil in and said that got every the arp wrong. I think Powell's changed their recipe a little while, well maybe a long time a while ago and they had the same sort of reaction. I guess they're doing surveys and then they're trying to please the masses, just maybe you're in the minority. Ruby says it's so gritty now. Oh sorry about that Ruby.

Yeah, really? Maybe they put more protein in there. Clint, Megan, Dan. It's Clint, Megan, Dan's... For Wednesday, the 14th of May, some stories you want to check on your radar. I was a member, I told you my son bought like eight guppies from the fish shop. And we had to get at least an even number of male to female fish. Or more female than male, but not the other way around

because the males will pester the females so much that females will swim around trying to get away from them that eventually they'll die from the stress and exhaustion of getting away from these males. Isn't that horrible? Can you neuter fish like you can a cat or a dog? Or is it too intricate of an operation? Probably.

Too special? You must keep two guys in there and two gals in there. There's someone who can probably do it, but considering your guppy's only worth seven bucks, I imagine the surgery would cost a lot more. And the surgeon would have to be a scuba diver as well, right? Because you can't take them out of the water. And well, it turns out, whilst in the store

and looking around, because they obviously have tadpoles and fish. What is that? That's a sponge bob. Oh, yeah. They also have turtles., something else playing sorry, turtles and frogs. Turns out frogs, female frogs, will fake their own death to avoid mating with males they don't like. Sounds familiar. Yeah, that sounds, I'm related.

I'm like you're a sea babe. Are you faking it? Oh she's dead bugger. Not tonight. Man, it's hard being a woman in the animal kingdom. Oh, God, it's sad. It's just an anger-inspiring story. I don't know if you've heard of ambulance. An ambulance was stolen outside Timaru Hospital on Tuesday morning,

taken for a joyride while a patient waited to transfer to Christchurch. So they left the ambulance running and then had to like go inside and get the person and they left it running because it was such a cold night they wanted the heating on for this patient and then somebody got in and stole the ambulance. Like Grand Theft Auto, like they thought they were in a video game or something. It's crazy. Isn't that insane? It's sad as well because it probably won't be covered by insurance because it was left running.

I remember my grandma got her car stolen because she had parked on the side of the road with the keys in it running because she had ducked in somewhere and someone stole it and it wasn't covered by insurance because they were like, oh well it was left running. But she was like, but I didn't mean for them to steal my car. It's not like stealing a police car though, you can put the sirens on and it's just a van. Yeah, they got it back, they went to yeah they ended up they got it back they meant the police nation got it back the person only went like three or four K like what a just a waste of everybody's time and also the person that needs to get from the hospital to wherever else they were needing to go. Have you ever wondered why there is mirrors in a lift when you're going up levels and you get

into a lift there's always a mirror in there and I thought it was just so like people that are going up the lift can check themselves in those. For an interview or something. Yeah I always genuinely thought that was why but apparently a lift expert has come out saying that they they install lifts and the real reason that there's mirrors in a lift is to aid with people that get claustrophobic. There was literally gonna be my next guess if I really thought about it I thought okay well otherwise you're in a steel box and I think it's probably trying to make it feel like light reflects You can see other things. Yeah Mmm, I've never thought of it. But as you were saying that I'll be like, oh, it's probably to make the space feel bigger

Like why you put a mirror in your bedroom? Yeah, that was really interesting I've never thought like probably thought about it until I read the story I don't of course. Yeah, you're right. I don't think I, it must be by law, because I've never been in a lift without mirrors. Yeah. Or windows. So there you go. I think Yaz from the Fall Noise Work does just arrived, has she?

Yeah. She's been talking to me off here. What? About something. Oh. And I said, I think you need to come in and present your pitch to the entire show. You know how we're in a band?

Oh no, does she want in? Yes, she wants in. Oh for gosh's sake. I thought she was joking. And she was trying to come to the girl part and I don't even get it. The problem is we're struggling with just the three of us, let alone adding another member. And I said look, if you come in with a strong pitch, we'll at least hear you out. Because I don't know what she could do

that isn't already being done. If she can make Clint and I better, that would really help. But I just don't know if she can. Clint, Meg and Dan. Yes, from the Full Noise Workday joins us, cause she wants in the band. Clint, Meg and Dan are on a mission to see if they can start a band

with zero prior musical experience. And after being turned down to open for Mitch James. That was so shit! I love you all individually as people but as a fan one of the worst. We started hunting for a new event to play at. My 40th. It's at the Devonport RSA. An RSA? Oh I've always wanted to play an RSA. And I've got kegs of espresso martini. Kegs of espresso! You should have lived with that! Oh great! Well now that's sorted we pretty much have everything set right. Now we just have to Kings of Espresso Martini. Kings of Espresso! You should have lived with that!

Oh great! Well now that's sorted. We pretty much have everything set right. Now we just have to practice. Impossible. I've just realised it's impossible to be ready. Oh shit. It's not looking good. Okay and yeah, you want to be a part of this shitstorm. No I do! It's so fun. And I will say yesterday, Clint, you played a bit of your rehearsal. Didn't sound that bad. Thank you, Yes, Meena.

Like it was a little slow. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, you can't come in and just go, you guys suck and then one into the band. It's not the right way to do it. OK, I found some audio of Dan. I'm sorry, of Yes. Oh, yes, this was the old band. Oh, no. Oh, no.

Performing in her old band. I thought we were going to do this. Here it comes. So you're playing the drums with the guitar in that? I'm singing. Oh just one job. Okay. Interesting. We've actually already locked in the singing part,

so I don't know if you've got anything to offer us. No, no, no. Okay, so we've got, okay, honestly, yes, if I'm being serious. Of course, in, like, you could be in the band if you had something to offer, but we've got singing, we've got two guitars, we've got a bass player, we've got drums, we've got... Keys. We've got Bella on keys, and also I think she might be doing the tamb tambourine What can you offer? There's no other parts in the song. No look I thought about it

And yeah, I was hamstrung for a bit there until I dove deeper. Okay, I dove deep into the song Yes, doing a deep dive. I think the reason why you guys don't sound Here she goes again. No, no The reason that you don't quite sound like the song is that you haven't got the sound effects, okay? So at the start of the song there's this kind of like sound that no one's doing yet and I thought maybe I could do it. This bit here. The whole dance starts.

The wap wap sound or the wiki wiki sound? Both, I can do both. I can do whatever. We should have held the DJ from the station to do that part. Yeah, but he has gone cold on us since we did say that, Dan and I. And I just thought we weren't going to do that part. It's just right at the beginning. We're just fling and flag it. I think it's somewhere else in the song though, the wap wap. It's not just at the start, it's actually throughout, I think, before the chorus digitally.

Ready? Yeah, this one here, right? At the end of the chorus. Wait. That. Oh. Oh, what the fuck, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, my first option. No, the thing is it's quite a subtle part of the song and I don't know if Yazda subtle Make their noise what without your mouth? Well, I've been I've been doing work, you know behind the scenes and I've actually bought some stuff in from home Okay, and I think these things make that sound. Yes. You walked in with a poster and some panadol. No, that's Ritalin. Oh, Ritalin. Okay, so that's got nothing to do with that.

No, this is... Okay, so play that first bit again. So just really listen to that sound. Okay, and now this. You might need to turn it up a little bit. This is the sound... Okay, ready? So it's a...

I'm hearing it! Thank you, Vic! I am hearing it! I don't know, guys, come on! It needs a lot of work! I heard that! I'm hearing it! And we only have a week and a half! No, I heard that!

I did! I didn't! I thought that sounded utterly terrible! We didn't work with it, Stu! I heard that! Vic, thank you! Okay, why don't we give her 24 hours? Because honestly, we have a week and a half before we perform.

You have 24 hours for it to sound close to the actual song, and if it does, you're in. The thing is, it sort of fits in with the current band, because we all sound shit still. I thought that's good. Maybe you need it to do more metal or something, you know, get a bit of flex, a bit of metal. What about a saw? Like, you know how people play the saws? You guys are too bad. What about a saw? Like, you know how people play the saws? Oh, you see, he's getting into it. You guys are too bad. So I'm in? Well, I'm just-

You know what, you're in if you can find the instrument. Oh, okay, well, text 33, 343, if anyone has any ideas. Maybe, what about a, like, you know, you sell a house and you get like a bit of, what's that called? Huh? You sell a house and it's like the sign. You get a sold sign.

Yeah. Core flute. And you think that's gonna make the sound? Okay, 24 hours. You use whatever you think sounds the closest to the actual song, bring it in tomorrow and perform it live to us. And if it sounds good, you're in. Sounds crap, you're out.

Okay, not my voice. Was it good? Yeah. No, she's not playing the flute. She's playing the core flute. Thank you, Dan. Clint. Megan, Dan. And the price is what? Yes, I have done a little online shop, well, fake online shop.

I'm definitely canceling this one, my goodness. From a local supermarket here in Auckland. So obviously all these prices will be slightly different for every supermarket, depending which way you shop. But the boys don't really do the shopping sometimes. I do the online shop. But Hannah, my wife, will read out what she needs, and then I put it into the app.

My wife loves shopping, like for anything, even if it's groceries. So happy days, because I'm not a huge fan. I thought my husband would be the same. He loves spending money, but just not grocery shopping. So that's my job. Never go hungry. That's the trocane.

Never go to the supermarket hungry, because you end up spending more. Yeah, Yeah well price of butter at the moment is as high as what 12 bucks which is in this game. It has indeed I've got a few things for you to go through would you like to just make your guesses and then we'll see which one gets closest. Sure, if it gets the closest gets the point. Alright let's start off with a short cucumber. Now cucumbers they are a fluctuator. It's a short cucumber it's not a telegraph. Telegraph are the long ones, this is a short cucumber. They go through seasonal, so are they currently in season?

No. No, so I'd say they're... $4.99. Correct. Dan. Ha ha ha, you took too long. Wow, $4.99. $5 for a short cucumber.

Okay, Dan. Okay, 500 grams of premium mince, beef mince. Oh, I'd say that's $12. Oh. $14. Premium, I'm gonna go $14.99. Dan's close to $13.50. Oh yeah, thanks to you in and around 12 for mince.

What? He said how much? He said $12 and I said $14.99. I'm closer by one cent. He changed it to $14 last weekend. Oh, you can't change it, Dan. Okay, lock it in. Okay, 500 gram tub of semi soft mainland butter so the semi soft spreadable stuff the tub of it. It's $11 for a block of butter

but this is the spreadable so I'm gonna go $9.50. $16.50. What are you talking about? I thought it was cheaper because you get less. Wow. No about but half a kilo. It's the same, you get a half a kilo block. Yeah, it's actually more than a pound. Junkies here, we never buy the spreadable stuff. We always just buy the butter. What, we always buy that. $16. $16.50 for 500 grams of semi-soft mainland butter.

12 pack of free range eggs. Oh, that's around $10. What size? Oh, size eight. And that's a 12 pack. 12 eggs. I'm gonna go maybe, I'm gonna go a little bit more than 10. I'm gonna go $12 for a 12 pack.

A dollar an egg? Nah, surely not. I'll go like 9 bucks. $12.50. Oh my gosh. That's crazy, hey. They air another item that's gone up in the last 24 months. They have eggs that are crazy at the moment.

Okay, let's just do a nice easy mainland Eden 1kg of cheese. $19. Correct. It can't be. What are you saying? Last time I went to Pack and Save and it's the cheapest place to get cheese, I think, is $19.

$18.99. How much? For a kg of cheese. And that's the tasty. A block of cheese. Tasty. I think you get a cold beef for $17. So if you've got a block of cheese and a tub of butter,

you're looking at 30 bucks for those two items. Unbelievable, hey. Clint. Isn't that insane 30 bucks for those two items. Unbelievable, hey? Climp. Isn't that insane? Oh my god, what are they, what are the grocery store only smoking? Just do a couple more, let's do a couple more.

Okay. Let's go, oh, a bag of lettuce, like a bag of baby leaf lettuce. $3 first-hand. No, no, you're dreaming, $5.99. No, $3.99. Check it in!

Must be in season. And what about- Oh, I love how the one thing my wife actually grows at home is the cheapest thing he's mentioned. Okay, and 200 grams of shaved ham. So there's little punnets, the beehive punnets. Oh, and you get two punnets? Oh my god, there's those all the time. No idea. Let's go $3.80. No, they're about $5.80. $7.50. Oh my god!

And honestly, you get about six things of cheese, ham and each. Oh my kids have finished one in a sitting! Not anymore! No way! Oh well, there's no macaroni and cheese, there's no cheese sauce on the broccoli. No, macaroni, that's still cheap, it's about a dollar a bag. Okay, but just macaroni. No cheese sauce on the broccoli!

Crazy right? Oh wow. Yeah, it's tough, it's insane if you're not really looking into it. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. Mine and Meg's favourite thing to do once a week. What's in Dan's Google history? Isn't sexy as it wears?

Well, it's all a great big mystery. But there's something new in here. Going through Dan's Google history, what have you found this week, Meg? It's actually a short week this week, Clint, because Dan mostly Googles watches these days. Oh, I'm obsessed. It's the ADHD. Completely obsessed, Dan. There are at least 25 searches a day for different watches. And the thing is, I've been addicted for the last maybe three or four years to vinyl records.

And so it's now flipped to watches watches and it's an ADHD trait like collecting stuff. Watches I think is better because it's more visual no one knows you collect the records they're just at home. But watches are way more expensive than records. But what's the name from my Nixon he collects watches have you just taken on his hobby? I only just found out that he collected them. So now we've been bowing down on watches. Is it an ADHD trait to Google tax fraud? Question mark, question mark. And then will accountant help me pay less tax? Yeah, well, so I'm doing some work outside of this job,

some voicing stuff, and I'm getting like a paycheck, and Hannah was like, you need to tax that. Yeah, if they're not taking withholding tax, you need to pay it at the end of the day. So they just pay it into my account and I'm like oh that's just free money but no apparently that's got to be taxed so I've got to go through all this stuff I'm trying to hide it from the government. Yeah I can see that he actually is googling how to, that's not going to be good to stand

up and report if I can just find you googling. Do you know how to hide it? It depends how many payments but if they put trade me or like furniture and it makes it look like they're giving you money for something you sold. You don't pay tax on that. The weird thing is I messaged them and asked them to pay me in cash. And she said no! Right, and my bargain, okay.

Dang. I'm playing real drum roll. I don't know if this means handing your wife as a lucky lady or not, but you Googled four times in a row how to make my fingers stronger and then sore fingers. That's from the guitar playing. Oh right.

I'm playing the guitar so much that my fingers are getting sore. Your fingers are sore. Have you found a solution to make them stronger? Just practice. Right. There's nothing you can do to make your fingers strong. What about just grip strength and just hanging

onto a bar and stuff? I have got one of those grippers at home, like a thing where I pull it in and out and it like, helps improve my grip strength and wrist stuff. But it looks weird when I'm doing it. Is it like an adult thing? No, it's just, I think one of you gave it to me. Me gave it to me. Yeah, stuff but it looks weird. Is it like an adult thing? No it's just a you gave it to me, me gave it to me. Yeah and you like push it up and down like that and it improves your grip strength. I'm seeing them on the infomercials like a dumb a shaker dumbbell. Yeah it's like a

dumbbell. They were viral for the wrong reasons. Got that, a shaker or shaker whack or something. And here we go this is if this is your first time ever listening to the show and ever getting to know Dan Webby, I think, I think this, these two next Google searches really just sum them up. So he Googled, is it illegal to watch porn at work? And then directly afterwards, Googled tie-dye jeans. What's in Dan's Google history?

Is it sexy as it wears? Will it solve the mystery? I don't know how they connect at all. Well I was Googling the first one because there was a police officer that's been fired from his job for allegedly doing that exact thing. And the tie-dye jeans, I was just looking for a gift. How did you pay them? Who wants tie-dye jeans as a gift?

You hate them. They're hard to buy as well. I think they're out of hand. Yeah. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Yeah, hopefully you caught Dan's Google history just a few minutes ago. Tie-dye jeans, Dan's on the lookout for a pair. If you sell them, stock them.

Oh yeah, if anybody's 34, size 34 mens, if you've got tie-dye jeans, I'd buy them off you. Now Clint, I'd be a little bit worried about you talking about that and making fun of him. He said it was a gift and he owes you a birthday present. Mmm. And I thought Clint would really suit some tie-dye. You... If there's anyone I know...

If there's anyone, they scream Clint. I instantly thought if you're buying a gift, it's for Clint and Randall. If there were denim and white, like tie-dyed in the normal colour. But I think if you... We're having red and purple and yellow and blue. I was looking for just a dual colour. Yeah, like a blue and white. Yeah, I think that'd suit you. Yeah, I do like the rack where it's like lots

of leftover stuff because they didn't sell because no one bought them. That's how I got my chocolate coloured leather pants the other day. 22 bucks! Brown leather pants. Yeah, bound from 150 and they had a reduce tag on them and then another one another one it was like 22 bucks. Are you

going into Battleson? Yeah. I don't know what they say about brown pants. Oh do they? I thought he'd just done an egg. You know who would suit tight-o-jeans actually? Our dead uncle Will. He would have pulled them off. Oh yeah, he would have loved anyway. The Edge will to win All right, we lost our uncle will sadly passed away, but he left you All of the cash in his will he just doesn't remember your name. So he's left a specific Criteria and if you fit the bill you win the will 250 bucks. Thank you listen. G'day, it's your uncle will here. the next item I'm leaving behind for my Will is 250 bucks cash and this karaoke machine I picked up real cheap in Bali that for some reason only plays Nickelback

Oh Jesus can you stop that bloody... Oh my god, I think I think I fixed that it's it's playing Oh my god, I think I think I fixed it it's it's playing Off of sakes not imagine dragons Anyway, I can't remember the name of the person I left it to but I do remember that you drive a silver car You've eaten Mac is in the past week and you bloody love nickel back. Don't you? No, I didn't there's the easiest Silver car Mac is that's my husband. Yeah, but the Nickelback?

Yes, that's my husband. Oh, okay. I drove a black car, that's the only one that I've been flying with. Producer Nance is already calling the studio. You can't win, buddy. It's the Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. The Edge will to win. All right, Uncle Will's passed away.

He doesn't remember your name, but he knows he wants to give you 250 bucks if this is you. The person I'm leaving it to drives a silver car they've eaten Maccas in the past week and they love Nickelback. That'll be a lot of people. Would it? Oh yeah. I think so. I think for some reason why do people love to hate Nickelback? I think they create great songs. The thing is a lot of people I think would say outwardly that they hate Nickelback, but they're listening to them. They'd find themselves toe-tapping. They'd find themselves singing along, Clint.

I think you'd find yourself singing along. You wouldn't switch it off if Photograph came on. Not to any of our new stuff. They never answer what was on Joby's head. Yeah, no. Okay, so we do have somebody who thinks it is them, and that is Rebecca this morning. Good morning, Rebecca.

Good morning, Guy. Good morning. Rebecca, you drive a silver car what is the car it is a Toyota hybrid that makes the good environmentally friendly Dan they come in silver correct oh god yes I do this causes the base color you don't pay extra for it says she's lying here, what did you order from McDonald's? A Big Mac combo. Okay, so Dan, do they sell those? Let me just check. That checks out as well, well done. And apparently, Rebecca, you love Nickelback.

That's fantastic. I'm guessing photograph right up there for you. It sure is. But how you remind me is a good one, too. Yeah, I'm achieving it. How you remind me is, okay, you know the B track. Can I ask you, like, in terms of favorite bands, are they your number one?

Uh, ooh, number one, I dunno. Yeah, go, go. But that's alright. I can still like it. Now apparently, Rebecca, Uncle Will doesn't actually remember your name, but he says that there is a question that you will know the answer to if this is the person he's looking for. You're almost there. The cash is almost in your wallet. You just have to answer this one question.

It's yours. If you don't, a jackpot's to 500 bucks at nine. Take a listen. If you're the right person, you'll definitely know this since you just love Nickelback so much, don't you? Before they chose the name Nickelback, what was the band's original name? You have five seconds to answer. Oh, I don't know this one. Oh, I don't know this one. Oh, I don't know. Oh, sorry. Not a true fan then.

Village Idiot. Oh, I quite like that name. Village Idiot was the original name of Nickelback before they changed it. And maybe that's why they're cursed to never be as big as they could have been because they changed their name. We've heard that about bands more now. True, yeah.

So maybe Rebecca, Uncle Will wasn't talking about you. You just coincidentally had the same set of criteria as the person he was thinking about. Oh, what a shame. Yeah. Sorry, Rebecca. Sorry, Rebecca. It does mean a Jackpot's to 9am this morning. Yep.

500 bucks. That could be yours and Will's will. Wow. Yeah. If you fit the bill, you win the will. 9am. Alright, next on the show, did you know how cool chat GPT can be when you're struggling? Like with mental health or just anything in general? Did you know?

Because Meg does. I'm just very, very heavy-handed. And I've just discovered it in the last 24 hours. I think more people need to know. Because mental health is a real struggle to get help in New Zealand. It is. And is this kind of a little cheap way? I think it is. I don't

want to say it's a replacement, that's um dangerous I think to say it's a replacement for a professional, but it is a something to use in the meantime if you can't get the help possibly. Not for mental health, just for reassurance. Yeah. Just empathy, just like a just an ear, like from a friend. Meg, apologies that I'm gonna be talking about something but you're gonna be Yeah, just empathy. Yeah, just like a just an ear like from a friend. Yeah Meg Apologies that I'm gonna be talking about something but you're gonna be like, yes, obviously Clint. I know all this stuff I've been trying to tell you about this stuff. I've been actually seeing this pop up more and more So I think it is I may be without trying to sound like a loser

But I think it was maybe a bit of an early adapter with using chat GBT in this way. Thank you And um, chat wouldn't talk to me like that. They would be like, Meg you tried. of an early adapter with using chat gbt in this way. A doctor. Thank you. An early adapter. They wouldn't talk to me like that. Meg you tried. I know but I thought you were literally using it instead of Google so it would just give you more detail. I thought it just gave more detailed answers than Google right? Okay so let's go into real simple terms.

Chat gbt is an AI tool. It is an app you can download or a website you can go on to. It is artificial intelligence which sounds a or a website you can go on to where you it is it is artificial intelligence Which sounds a bit scary and it can be scary I'm not going to sugarcoat everything and say it is you know kind of I don't really understand it I know it's bad for the environment. I've written a whole article about that and But I have found it extremely useful in certain situations over the past year Where I have had no access or money or time access

to talk to somebody about things that to me I'm like, oh I don't want to bother my friends about that. And I still talk to my friends about these things but I mean when I am just in a deep hole of anxiety when it comes to my daughter's health, I have used it to calm me down. And I find this, I genuinely am a little bit shocked by this because I know I've used it to calm me down. And I find this, I genuinely am a little bit shocked by this because I know I've used chapter GPT to rewrite things. Yeah, which you can. To proofread, to that kind of thing, the obvious stuff. But I would never in a million years go to it for advice,

like quite personal advice and stuff. I also, sorry Clint, I recently got some blood tests done and I didn't understand them. And so I put the, I took a photo of the blood test and I put them in and I said can you just tell me like what all this means was like yeah healthy good good good and I was like oh this is getting a little raised and maybe you want to work like maybe you could work on this or take some iron supplements and like we went through and kind of put it in layman's

terms that just so I'm gonna listen to my doctor my doctor you know it's more just so much we trust it? That's the thing. And who's, because I mean, does anyone have an agenda that's controlling AI to tell us what to do? And then we trust it so much. Probably. After a while that we'll do anything that it says. I mean, this is all, I am no expert in it.

All I know, and it is, I'm never going to replace a health professional for me. I'm never going to stop going to the doctor for myself, for my family, for my daughter, mental or physical doctor, by the way, like a mental health doctor I would still go to. Sometimes though, at three in the morning, I can't call my therapist.

And when I'm having a panic attack about my daughter, I can't. And this is where it changed for me, when I saw a friend of mine who's going through the hospital system and waiting and trying to be seen, and they screenshot their conversation with ChatGPT and at the end because they're obviously venting to ChatGPT it says you're doing incredibly well even if it doesn't feel like it. Do you want

to talk about something completely different for a while or do you still want backup for handling the hospital stuff? I'm all yours. And I was like oh my god I didn't know it did that. Wow. Do you have to pay for that though? Is there a certain point where it goes, Okay, I've answered enough questions, $39 a month, please. No, it does do that because I started using yesterday and I was chatting back and forth and I was trying to get it to sort out an itinerary for a holiday. And I was like, and then in the end it goes, Hey, you've asked so many questions. You can ask questions again in five hours.

Yeah, you can pay for it. You can pay, it's like $37 New Zealand a month and that gives you 80 messages every three hours or updating messages, so it's still, there's a cap on it. I find it really good for reassurance and validation. I don't use it as like medical advice per se. I use it for, so this is what I've had a conversation recently. My daughter had croup over the weekend.

Very scary for me, hugely health anxious person when it comes to my child. And I heard her barking cough and my head was gone instantly. There's nothing I can do. There's no doctor I can call. There's Healthline to be fair. She was actually fine. She wasn't in an unsafe position but my head went crazy. And sometimes if you're waiting on the line for Healthline, you could do a quick chat GPT. Please call Healthline.

This is not to replace anything, but they said to me, you've done the hardest part already. You called it early on, you stayed calm. This was the next day. And you have a plan that makes a huge difference. Do you want me to message you back tonight around bedtime to check in how she's going?

And I said, yeah. And they said, I'll check in with you around bedtime. You're not alone Meg. If anything changes before then, or your gut tells you that something feels off, message me right away and also call a doctor.'t feel you know it tells you to call doctors You're doing an incredible job staying calm for days that she's so lucky to have you we got this talk soon Which I will say I will genuinely say that sounds lovely until you think I know you're not you're chatting to literally like a piece

But doesn't matter in California. It's like going to a magic show and you know and then you keep thinking well, that's not really magic. There's a trick. It's like but doesn't matter like you enjoyed the show. Like you enjoyed the response. Does it matter that it's not real? But there's a human aspect to the magic because there's a person doing the magic there where there's no human involved. But it's fake. But it's still fake. It's not real magic. And your argument is that AI this isn't a real person. It's a fake person. But if it doesn't matter because it's giving you reassurance at a time of need, isn't that okay? I even one time asked about bias.

And I was like, you're just telling me what I want to hear. You're always going to be on my team. Like I had an argument with it. Because you are. And they were like, yeah, okay. I am programmed to be like supportive of you. That's true. But also with all the information you have given me

I also know that you your hearts in a good place. This is just an anxious kind of still Once in a while to be like sorry not today Megan. I'm just My favorite prompt I can tell you my favorite prompt next actually if you want to use chat GBT It's a great prompt to help you with your future. But we're going to be talking about what you use it for. Right? Yeah, what are you using chat GPT for that most people wouldn't even know it's capable of?

Where you go, oh my God, I use it for this all the time. And people go, what? I didn't know I could do that. The last thing I used it for is photoshopping my face onto Superman's body. It wasn't even that good. Oh, God. Clint, Megan, Dan.

Talking chat, GPT and the unusual uses that people are using it for that you might not even know it's capable of. Lots coming through. You can text me with chat GPT altogether, no spaces to 3343. I wrote an article about the pros and the cons of it because I know both sides. I also want to tell you my favourite prompt there has changed a lot for me. I wrote to Tell Me Five Hard Truths I Need To Hear Considering All The Information You Have On Me and Blind Spots I May Have Missed In My Life.

And it definitely told me some things that I could work on, which that's what I'm saying. It's not all just modicodly. It wasn't like Meg, you're perfect. It told me I need to stop seeking external validation from other people. Stability is not the same as safety. It broke these all down.

I don't need to earn my rest. The future isn't waiting for me to be a specific weight or to get a certain income and I shouldn't start enjoying my life now. All these things that I've kind of talked to it about has said, hey maybe gently. Because you don't talk to it like a robot. You talk to it like a person.

So it eventually starts talking back to you like a person. Yeah. Wow. So you must have had to talk to it a lot for it to know so much detail about you. Well, it knows all my bad bits. Well, Michelle is getting chat GPT, I think, to help her in her career. Morning, Michelle. Good morning. It wasn't me. Morning, Michelle. Good morning.

It wasn't me, it was my friend. Oh, okay. But she uploads her, like she was applying for jobs and she uploaded the job description for the company that was asking for someone and then her resume and asked it to create a cover letter specific to the job. Wow. Incredible.

And so she's just uploading like a screenshot of the job description and then it's just doing it for her? Just doing it all for her, yeah. And it tailors it right. So all the specific skill they're asking for that job. Did she get the job? Couldn't believe it. Yes, she does.

Oh my gosh. And it was a doctor. Yeah, I didn't realise you could upload screenshots because someone else was saying, if you go to a restaurant and they hand you a beer menu and then it doesn't have too much information, you can take a picture of the menu and then tell chat a chat GPT what styles and other beers you like and then ask it to pick three similar beers to try so you don't end up buying a pint that you're

like this is gross. Alright Lucy what are you using chat GPT for? Hi guys, I use it to do my gym routine. So you know how when you go to the gym there's certain machines that you don't like using? Yeah. And certain ones that you love? Yeah. So I just put in all the machines that I want to do, put in my weight, put in my age and all that sort of stuff and it's set down how long you need to spend on each machine so that you actually like your workout.

God that's amazing, the problem is I'd put every machine in that I don't like and there'd be nothing left. There'd be nothing left. There'd be nothing left to use. It'd just be like, go for a walk then. At the gym. Yeah. That's cool though. And we have someone in the voice disguise up

who also wants to be a non-wife. What are they using it for? Hmm. Okay. Hello. Good day team, how are you? Good may. Oh God, what?

I don't like this. What are you using chat GPT for? That most people wouldn't know you could use it for. Recently we went on a wee boys trip to Bali and we were, you know, tucking into the local scene and sure enough, you know, had a pretty good night out on the scene actually and I hit it home with a certain other personality.

And yeah, woke up the next morning not to flash. The old downstairs was not looking very good whatsoever. Had never seen it looking like that at all. So yeah, used my good friend chat GPT to see if I had a STI or not. And to confirm what's tonight, again, I've got to a doctor. Can I just also pop in here and go, if you've got a medical condition. So you send it a screenshot and what did you say?

Did you send it like a DP? Oh, it's just a weak DP to chat GPT. And yeah, actually, actually said that I had no issues. And I did also go to the doctor afterwards just to get that checked. Nice to hear. That GPT was right. No issues there and no issues from the doctor. Congratulations! Okay, don't send intimate photos to her GPT. Oh my god, what about this one? Oh, I've done this. Are you doing the colouring page?

No, Sarah who uses it to turn her dog photos into human ones and then can put them on the wall in her house. I've done that with my cat Kimmy. I've done that with my cat Kimmy. I've done it with my cat Kimmy, uncanny. Do it. It makes them look like a human. And I was like, that's what he would look like if he was a human. Again, chat, GPT, no spaces to 3343 if you want both sides of the story. Because it is terrible for the environment.

We just need to call it chat. That saying the GPT thing is kind of... I just call it chat. It's a lot, isn't it? What was the pantry one? The pantry? No, the colouring in one. That's if you've got a kid or somebody who likes the colour and you can get it to make very specific scenarios

and then you get them printable colouring in pages. So you're like, maybe put my daughter in a situation where she, you know, a card is... If she's fighting like a dragon riding a unicorn. Yeah. Wow. That's a fun little one. There's just so many things. The worlds are always something. Someone else Wow. That's a fun little one. Just so many things.

The worlds are always something. Someone else says they just take a photo of their backyard when it's looking a bit sad, and then it comes back and chat will be like, yeah, this is what this plant is, and this is what it needs, and this is what that plant is, and what it needs. Whole new world, Clint.

Get it to put together an hour of our radio show tomorrow, Meg, and we'll do it. Should I? Yeah. To be honest, I think the one thing that it's not good at, Dan has been funny. No, neither have we. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

You are not any different. Yeah. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Clint, Meg and Dan scandal. I found this really shocking, and we have talked about this off here, and I think maybe on here, Clint, with you, and specifically because we thought there's no way

it would ever get a series two or three or onwards. Marsinger. It got a season two. You wish. It got a two, just didn't make it to three. Um, no. Heartbreak Island. Beast Games.

Oh yes! It's coming back. They renewed it officially just a few hours ago, seasons two and three because it was the most expensive reality game ever to be played. Ten million dollars cash and I think more prizes on top of that. It was the biggest prize, I think it got surpassed just recently, but it was the biggest cash prize in television like history and he was given, I heard him talking to podcasts, he was given a hundred million to make the show and he said the first two episodes cost 50 million,

and they were like, uh-oh, we've blown through half our budget already. He put tens of millions of dollars of his own money into it because they ran out, and he's been advised by his team not to do a season two, but he's got so much money, he's probably like, who cares? And you had to beat it, right? You can't go into a season two or three

and go less budget. That's what I was just reading up about, Dan, because they were saying that they're trying to do it, but our goal is deliver the biggest, best, boldest competition and it looks like they're trying to do bigger and better for next time. It was massive. I mean, I got my brother onto it and he didn't really know too much about it. He called me afterwards, which he's never done before. And he goes, that is actually one of the greatest things I've ever watched. If you ever watch anything like that again, tell me. Wow.

Well, I don't know if five million is the new prize money or was it five million, why not 10 million at the end? I don't want to spoil it, but yeah, it was $5 million the whole way through. And then right at the end, he gave the four or five people that were left an opportunity to double the winnings. And I want to tell you how he does that.

And he thinks no one's going to risk their position on the show by doubling the winnings. And I want to tell you how he does that. And he thinks no one's going to risk their position on the show by doubling the winnings. And they do. And then he ends up having to offer $10 million, but he can't promo that it's $10 million the whole show because it was a twist right at the end. That's interesting because I just had a look at the form that I could, like I could go on Best Games too, by the way.

All of us can reply right now. Should we all apply and see who gets it? Yeah are you smart? Oh wait no I can't reply. Are you smart or physically strong and then they're asking you what you're smart tell us about your endurance and strength be bold be you submit a one-minute video what would you do with five million dollars all these things you have to answer. Wow okay. What would you do with five million Dan what would your answer for that be? Jet ski. Yeah I'd tell Hannah do with five million Dan? What would your answer for that be? Jet ski. That best thing?

Yeah. I'd tell Hannah I won four million, my wife. And then I'd go... She said that's a really odd number for a reality show. Why didn't they just round it up? Yeah, and then it was by a whole lot of watches, a jet ski and a new car. But then, what happens when she watches the show that you're on and sees... Dad, did you win?

Those bloody TV shows lie, don't they? Taxes. Taxes. Taxes will be taxed. What about you, Clem? Five million dollars, what would your answer be? Those bloody TV shows lie, don't they? Taxes, taxes. Taxes will be taxed. What about you, Clint? $5 million, what would your answer be? I think I'd go and buy one of those massive, expensive RV buses.

You know, those massive, obnoxious buses? And then me and my family would just travel around the world for as long as we could. The wild Thornberrys. Yes! You're Nigel Thornberry. Nigel Thornberry. I'll be your Donnie. It's okay, I'll come on and just be a weird little kid on the outside.

Do you think any of us would get it from that though? Don't you still have a sob story? I mean you can't have a thousand, there were a thousand people on the first season, you can't have a thousand sob stories. Yeah you've got to have a couple of happy ones. Yeah you're all like, I just want to jet-ski and some watches. This show is depressing man. Yeah, oh that's exciting, especially if you can apply as a Kiwi.

Just go to bestgames.com, I think you can be a Kiwi, I guess you'd have to get over there by yourself, but go and check it out. Clint, Meg and Dan. Bit of a shame, I was trying to get Liam on who is an international listener from Ireland. Listens every day without fail. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Him and his wife Emma actually, when they were here on holiday, popped into the studio and went out to Rainbow's End with the kids and stuff, it was really cool. Friends of the show, podcast, the OnlyFans and this. And he commented on something I put on my Insta story

just the other day, which I was like, oh my God, this is great for parents. Okay, if you're just coming back from school run, probably don't want the kids to hear this hack if you're running late and you're still trying to drop them off. But this is supposed to be the best parent hack ever and I've tried it. Tell your kids you've got a surprise plan for them. Let them then go back and forth with ideas sharing what they think it could be, but you don't say yes or no.

Just be excited about what they're sharing. By the end of it, you will have a detailed list of things that they think are exciting things or that they want to do. Then you just pick something fun from the list that they've suggested and bring a little excitement to their day and save all the other ideas that they mentioned for a rainy day. The problem is kids go,

oh my God, Disneyland, a trip to the moon. I heard about doing this and people do it with like, I didn't know about dinner, Clem, but I know that people do it about like date nights of like hey where do you think we're going for date night? That's what Liam message. So Liam goes and I'm hoping his wife isn't catching this podcast he did say he might go into her podcast and then click played so she will be like oh yeah I've listened to that one already because he didn't want to blow up his cinch. More lies Liam. And when I couldn't get Liam on I actually tried to

message his wife just to maybe break the news to her, but both of them aren't answering. They say they listen all the time. Wouldn't be the first time he's Clint's messaged his wife behind his back. Yeah, watch out Liam. Liam says, works a treat for women too.

I'll say to Emma, his wife, I'm taking you out for dinner, but I'm not gonna tell you where. And then she will start guessing all the places that he might be taking her that she'd like to go. Bingo! He goes then I just go yeah you got it and that's where we go. You just gotta hope it's got a bookie. Yeah that's what I was gonna say what if it's all booked out. So if your partner's always like I don't know I don't know you go oh I'm bringing takeout home for dinner tonight and they're like what are you bringing?

You go hmm it's a surprise. Take a guess what's your guess? And then they will guess things that they're feeling like rather than them going, I don't know what you feel like. You go, I don't know what you're feeling like. And try it with your kids as well. I've already started doing it. My kids are starting to compile a list. You're right Dan, some of them are a little out the gate.

Yeah, yeah, that's not space Disneyland. I'm like, guys, you are so, I'm starting to realise how spoiled my kids are. Tattoos for kids. And you're like, ooh. So give it a go with your partner and see how you get on. If you go, all right, I'm taking you out for dinner tonight,

it's a surprise. It's really good for unorganised people, I will say that. Or if you've forgotten a birthday, like their birthday's yesterday and you haven't got them a gift, you'd be like, you're gonna love what I got you for your birthday.

Oh my God, what is that? And you go, actually, you'd never guess, but try. Yeah. I won't say, but just have a few guesses and they say a necklace. I mean you are kind of manipulating your partner. And if they say necklace or trip. But it's for their benefit. Yeah exactly, exactly. So in the end it's fine I think you can justify the means. Yeah if they say like necklace earrings you go oh no cheaper but keep yourself. Yeah yeah. Hey do you want to hear how Dan's progressing

in our band that we've put together? We're playing teenage dirt bag in a week and a half at Olivia's 40th. We're not really ready, but all of our instruments are here in studio. We're going to do another jam session today. So, your second one as a group. I think we could struggle through the song.

I genuinely think we could. We're basically now. I don't think we could. No, not me. We shouldn't though. We shouldn't. We shouldn't, we've. I genuinely think we could. We're basically here now. I don't think we could. No, not me. We shouldn't though. We shouldn't. We shouldn't, we've got finessing to do. Let's see where Dan currently is at

with his expertise on the guitar. And also Meg, we've got another drum kit here in studio. Let's see how Meg goes slapping the skins because we haven't really heard too much from Meg so she could be a bit of a dark horse in this band. Wait, what are you doing? Clint, Meg and Dan. Busy woman and men here in studio at the moment.

It is the age Clint, Meg and Dan and I don't know if we're having regrets or not but we're about to find out if us deciding to put together a band was a good idea or a bad idea. Hmm. Clint, Meg and Dan are on a mission to see if they can start a band

with zero prior musical experience. And after being turned down to open for Mitch James. That was so shit. I love you all individually as people, but as a fan, one of the worst. We started hunting for a new event to play at. My 40th. It's at the Devonport RSA.

An RSA. Oh, I've always wanted to play an RSA. And I've got kegs of espresso martini. Kegs of espresso! You should have lived with that. Great! Well now that's sorted, we pretty much have everything set right. Now we just have to practice.

Impossible. I've just realised it's impossible to be ready. Oh shit. Okay, I have not thought about this Meg, but because we're going to play a verse and chorus for the very first time, I'm getting nervous. I'm shaking! And so my fingers are shaking, which is not helpful if I'm putting them a verse and chorus for the very first time. I'm getting nervous. I'm shaking, so my fingers are shaking, which is not helpful if I'm putting them in the right place. It's not, it's no, this is unprecedented times.

And I don't know, do I stand, do I sit? I can't decide. I feel like you have to sit because you're not a stander. The thing is, stuff's about to get real now as well, because things are about to get real, because we've never played together as a unit before, apart from one chorus about two weeks ago now The all the practice comes together. I would love you to text in three three four three

Honestly, how we're doing a week and a half out not too honest though. It's we know our confidence I think my straps too tight Okay, Megan I'll start because you don't play at the start. Okay, we're ready. Okay, that's enough, now it feels too loose. Okay, okay, here we go. And for the second time ever in our lives, full band rehearsal, first time ever playing the verse of Ten Edge Dirtbag, it is MCDC. DC. Are you sure that's right, Ann?

That's not right. What? I don't think that's right. What's not right? Well, you were playing it different before. Okay, here we go. Start again. We'll start again.

It's all right. Okay, Ann, one more time. You're great, Meg. You're doing great. One, two, three, four. ["The Last Supper"] Oh God, I'm stuffing it up. Yeah, don't.

But you need to come in singing. Yeah, I know. What are you singing? Once he gets a full bar without a mistake, they'll come in. Okay, here we go. For the third time. I was playing it better before, shit. Okay, pretend no one's here. Close your eyes. Okay, here we go. For the third time. I was playing it better before, shit.

Okay, pretend no one's here. Close your eyes. Here we go. One, two, three, four. Oh no, you need the moment to see where to play. One, two, three, four. God, I've got so nervous. I genuinely, I'm shaking with nerves.

I'm so nervous. It's okay. We just take a breath. I'm choking. Only the whole country watching, and mostly it's just mums and dads coming home from school. I'm not even faking that. Oh no, you're not gonna be able to do it.

Should we do the chorus? Okay, we know the chorus. Okay. No, no, let's try this one more time. One more time, one more time. Do you want me to start singing as soon as you start playing? No, no, no, let's give it one more go.

One more go. One, two, three, four. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. ["No Elf"] Her name is Noel I had a dream about her She rings my bell

I got gym class in Hill And now we know how she rocks And kids and tube socks, but she doesn't know who I am And she doesn't give a damn about me Yeah! How does a teenage dirtbag baby Listen to Iron Maiden baby with me Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Yeah!

Hey! What did it sound like? I couldn't hear you guys at all. Neither. I can't hear myself in my ear. Was it good? Was it good? Yeah. Oh, we're getting thumbs up from the office. I think it was shaky at best, if I'm honest. But it's mainly me. My headphones came out, so I wasn't sure either.

I couldn't hear myself playing. So that was half the issue. I don't think we cancelled the rehearsal after the the show I think we should stay and work on it we keep going okay yeah I don't think we've cracked it Meg held the team top class effort someone else's said brilliant is that a replay that sounds great no that's original bro okay I'm original, bro. Oh, damn. OK. Oh, I'm going to say that actually. We do sound quite good. Hey, guys, Tiffany's on the line. I think she just wants to say it.

Hey, oh, sorry. Hey, Tiffany, how would you think? Speechless. OK. Tiffany? Tiffany's not there. OK. She can't hear herself either.

Right, so we're going to go back to the drawing board. We'll get the any is correct. we'll get the my play incorrect and I think then we might be there. We'll get there we'll get there. Okay Olivia I'd love to know what she thinks maybe we need to get her on tomorrow if she heard that and it's her 40th I would be stressing if it was my party. Oh my god. We've still got a week and a half. Holy shit you made it the whole way through. If you want more, find them on Instagram at Edge Breakfast. See you tomorrow.
