This is a podcast from Rover.
If you're easily offended, keep listening.
We love a challenge.
This is the Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
Yo, turn the sound up.
Love music.
Love music.
Jarast the five.
Love like Clint to the Dan and no Meg.
Where that's London.
Clint to the Dan and no Meg.
Come on, Ash.
together. Clint's to the Dan and I make
where there's London. Drop the bass. This is Clint, Meg and Dan
live.
Morning. Pull it together, ass.
Yeah, pull it. How about Nipia? Why do I could pull it together?
You're a bloody miss. I am always a mess when that thing's playing.
Brush, you're here. You know what? You're right. I've got nothing.
Hey, you know what? You're not usually a miss, but I'd say this.
Actually, today you look bloody dutty.
Did you sleep on the street last night?
Yeah, if you're using dry shtin B, you need to use in the wet stuff.
Bloody hell.
I'm absolutely a mess.
Yeah, don't bring your bad, like, home life here to work.
Okay, guys, that's enough.
We're all friends.
Yeah, so she thought it was funny, but now we're taking it too far.
I brought you a vitamin C, vitamin D, and shared it with you.
That is delicious.
I've made myself a coffee.
I couldn't have a shower this morning because I had.
no more clean underwear because I haven't done in washing all week.
Okay, you didn't need to tell us that.
I had a show last night, though.
And you know what?
You give her a song, Clint, and she'll look a million.
50 bucks.
All right, well, she's got two minutes 49 then.
It's a short song.
I'm going to make myself the hottest ever before.
It'll be 50 Australian dollars.
Yeah, oh yeah.
What is that, like 160 New Zealand or something like that?
Yeah.
All right, Daisy's Justin Bieber, rumors that he might have new music,
a new album dropping midnight tonight.
How good.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Oh, my gosh.
Rumour has it.
He might have a new album, Swag.
Two dropping midnight.
I'm telling you, it's going to be
some lame-ass remixes
where it's the same song,
but like,
um-st,
I hope it's that.
Yeah, he had 22 tracks
or something crazy on Swag,
the album, and then you realise
that only, like, eight of them were songs.
I get the vibe that this latest album,
because I actually really like Swag, the first one.
Yes, same.
And I think he's kind of just throwing a lot of crap at the wall,
and some of it stuck
and now he's going
some of the stuff
that sort of slid down the wall
I could put on another album
you know
but that's what they all do now
because it's like
we can't just have one nice thing right
like you used to just be like
10 of the best tracks
it took them three years
and only the best makes it through now
and she's like no one I want it all out
I think it's Taylor Swift that's done it
because she's re-released all her other albums
and so now and then she'll put
some bonus tracks on it
well then Justin I don't know if he recorded or not
but it sounds like you're in church
in the auditorium
and there's that old guy, the pastor,
you came from heaven to worth,
to show the wall.
I was a banger.
Anyway, and that's one of the tracks.
And I'm like, what?
That's not.
What are you doing, Justin?
I mean, it's your album, you do what you want,
but I was so excited thinking we're getting 22 Justin Bieber's songs,
so maybe you're right, Dan.
But that's too many.
We can't handle 22 Justin Bieber songs at one.
There's actually only like 14 full tracks on it, though.
All right, we're about to jump into our throwback,
6am, throwback, get you going for your Friday.
Is it shine, Jesus shine?
How deep is your love?
No.
It's kids.
So come on, jump.
Oh, yeah.
Come on.
Take a ride.
Yeah.
You know what?
We're talking about sexual awakenings the other day.
I reckon this would be up there, Kylie Minogue.
Oh, my God.
I'm not bisexual, but if I was going to have a lesbian sexual awakening,
it would be the Kylie Minogue in the pool.
She is a babe.
Even now, she's still quite hot for her age.
She looks exactly the same.
She's incredible.
This was a New Zealand Idol group song,
top ten group song,
got thrashed and thrashed and thrashed.
I have PTSD of this.
I hate this song.
That's not Carly's fault, is it?
No, it was quite a high track to sing,
so I'd imagine being right out of your register, Clint.
Yeah, well, there were guys and girls,
so the girls took the highs,
boys took the low.
You could do it, could you do it all night?
Is that the kids in?
Because you're doing it all right.
Can you do it in your head voice out so you get that,
da-da-da-da-da-ma.
No, don't ask too much to me.
You can. You're very talented.
Not even. No, five past six.
Can you do it, Clint?
Yeah, obviously.
He was top eight.
He was on Idol.
Obviously. I was doing it back when I was 21 on Idol.
And he came out eight.
Yeah, I got kicked out on Country Week.
Oh, wow.
No, they weren't ready for you, babe.
They weren't ready for you.
Clint Megadam.
Lesh, Go.
Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogh, kids on the edge of 6am
throwback for your Friday.
Clint Megadam with Ash London.
They cut the bloody rap out of it.
I had the rap and that's the best bit.
I'm a non-a-ree.
I was trying to find out.
I was trying to get off YouTube for you guys.
I didn't even know there was a rap.
Yeah, it's like in the middle.
I think it's before that.
It's out of the chorus, into the, anyway.
Do I look any bad?
I put some makeup on?
You look gorgeous now.
Before you said that I looked rougher than I've ever looked in my life.
Well, I don't know.
You were just looking like you'd just woken up and that's fine.
And you know what?
I've said this to me
multiple times
Clint and I have it lucky
we just get that
roll out of bed
throw it a bit of maybe
product in our hair
and batabing,
bad a bit of days
naturally look like this
I know
I often feel sorry for men
because you're stuck
apart from Clint
who puts in a lot of effort
with all the extra curriculars
He probably puts more effort
than you or anybody to you
If I put as much effort
as Clint into looking hot
I'd be so hot
Yeah
I got all I did this morning
I did like an eye cream
I did like
some other serum
and then the moisture as it goes on top.
So, I did three layers.
But you've also done self-tanning and Botox this week.
Oh, no, self-t tanning this week.
I think Botox is like three, four weeks back.
Isn't now when it peaks then?
Doesn't Botox peak like a couple weeks after you get it done?
Do you know what I've done this week?
Tell me.
I put some sunscreen on on Monday.
You need to wear sunscreen every day.
It's the only way to protect yourself some skin cans and wrinkles.
But I haven't washed my face since.
That's actually, if you're doing nothing for your face, lads.
Are you serious?
Like, not with a, not with this, um,
Soap, no, I just under the tape.
A face wash.
Yeah. Disgusting. Continue, Clint.
But look at me. If you do nothing else
except this, lads, it's get a
moisturiser with an SPF in it.
Absolutely. It's the best thing you can do to stop.
What's that good for ageing? SPF.
Yeah, they just reckon the sun's like the worst thing
for your face.
Fine lines, wrinkles, and then also, of course.
That's why my face looks like a prune.
You've both got lovely faces.
You were telling us yesterday that
some lady saw you with your son
and thought you were brothers.
Yeah, I know, but that's why I was so.
shocked because it's like, have you seen my face?
But hey. When someone says, like yesterday, you said that someone had referred to me as hot,
and because I am so self-aware, and I'm aware that I used to be hot now, just normal, fine, whatever.
You're hot. I'm not. But that's the thing. When someone says she's hot,
now I can't believe anything else they say. So if a week ago he said, Ash is funny, now I'm like,
well, I don't believe him. But what about, what if your husband says you're hot? Do you not believe
him then?
But I probably wouldn't because he's not. Wait, so you were hotter than you are now before.
I'm...
Damn, girl.
I've let it go.
I really have.
You haven't. Do you know what?
I'm telling you I have.
Don't tell me what I have and haven't done.
Listen to me, Ash.
I'm so off him right now.
I saw a video of you the other day and I thought, what an ugly person.
No, I did.
So I believe that.
I go, yeah, because let's all live in reality is that I'm not in a phase of life right now that I'm looking my best.
And that's okay.
So what are you out of ten now?
What were you out of ten?
I would say at my best, I was like an eight, now I'm a five.
Wow, so you were three points on a back in the day?
Yes, but I've got a great personality, a loving family and a happy life.
So I don't mind.
Which brings you up to a seven.
Thank you.
So you're a 10 then back in the day.
No, I didn't have the happy life back then, though.
All I had going for me was my hotness.
But ebbs and flows, and that's okay.
What's caused the three point drop, kids?
A kid. I had buddy.
I used to go to the gym every day and do yoga.
I just took better care of myself.
I had more time.
I slept more.
And I've just got really fat in the face.
God, this has been real home trips.
But I don't mind.
That's the thing.
It's not keeping me up at night.
Because I have so proud of my life.
I love myself.
I truly love myself.
You know, I genuinely get really,
I felt like the amount of time I was putting in the gym
and the diet and that I was doing,
I just should be twice the size that I am now.
And I would get so frustrated
and I'd see these like jacked guys
and I was just like one day, one day, one day, one day.
And I've finally just been okay in the last couple years
being like, that's just not going to be me.
And I'm not going to pump myself full of steroids to get there
even though I contemplated their ears back.
I was like, because some of the boys that I hung out
with the Gold Coast boys, they were all on the roids
and they were jacked.
And I was like, but I don't want to have to do that to get that.
So now I'm just content
Now your friends are going on to Zempick and you're like
Oh no they're all going to be skinny than me
They're all walking around being all hot
And I have to be the one that like didn't jab myself with the poison
You know but it's like whatever
Just gonna let people live
No one's completely happy with their life
You've pumped yourself full of other stuff
You may as well pump some other some more serums inside you
What are you insinuating there, Daniel Webby
He's pumped a bit of the detox into his face
I'm pretty sure Botox is like quite natural
Like people, like, it's not a filler.
Get a couple of steroids in your arms, bro.
Exactly, I would.
Just shoot it right into the biceps.
Is the devil on your arm? Just do it.
Have you seen the documentary, the guy whose arms exploded?
No.
And he's just jamming roids, like, into his biceps.
And then it detaches and swings around and hangs where his tricep.
It will put you off.
Even the thought of ever going there.
Injecting its biceps.
I was going to do it later today.
But now that you said that, I'll pass it right now.
All right.
First call of the day next.
If you want to join us, we'll sue you out of the voucher to go spend in store at Zed for your troubles.
What's going on this weekend, man?
0-800-the-edge.
The Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
Who's it going to be?
We're going to saw you out of the voucher to go spend in store at Zed.
First call of the day.
First call of the day.
You know what?
We just had someone on and they're a paramedic.
Yes.
But they've dropped off, which makes me think that there's been an emergency.
One-one.
Oh, neat.
Do you know, Buddy came, um, kendi sent Buddy and all his mates home last night with paper little, um, uh, uh, phones.
so they can practice calling 1-1-1.
Isn't it?
So I was like, oh, what's that, buddy?
He says, oh, it's my phone to call for an emergency.
And then I said, show me what you do.
And he held up the little paper phone,
and his little fat little finger, one-one-one, call.
That's so clever.
You know, I think it's in Australia, or maybe it's America.
There's a test line for it.
So it's like a different number or something,
but you can test it,
and then the kid, like, goes through the process
and they can, like, talk to the person,
but it's not real.
It's just so they can practice.
Tasha's text. Sorry, Tash here, guys.
I got to work and I got a job straight away, sad face.
We were right. See?
Still send her the voucher, though, because she's saving lives.
You know what? I think paramedics
are some of the most incredible
people out there. Very underpaid, very
undervalue in New Zealand. Yeah, but isn't...
Don't you do a job like that not to give it?
She'd do it for the reward of like
saving lives on the weekly. When was the last time you saved a life, Dan?
You should still get lots of money for it.
You should still get paid.
Keep it paid crap so the only
good-hearted people become parents.
Yeah, because what if just money-hungry people
like dango and they just keep losing lives
because he's only in it for the cash?
Well, then you get fired, but...
Also firemen as well, very underpaid New Zealand
are they?
And they're very... Do such an incredible job.
Well, I wonder how many lives Timmy's saving.
Where was the last time you saved the life, Tim?
Because you're our first call all the day.
Oh, not a lot, mate. I'm only at Sparky.
Hey, are you saving lie? You're preventing deaths, bro.
That's true.
Unless he's a bad Sparky, in which case is probably a creation.
Hey, isn't true? Like, Sparky's copper.
a lot of flack from all the other tradies, right?
That you guys kind of just shot right at the end,
make the most money, leave all your mess,
and just bugger off.
Because that's kind of the stereotype.
Nah.
Nah, no.
No, no.
I get sick of that one as well, mate.
Where they're right from the beginning
and then they're right to the end,
we've got to work our way around all the other trades.
Yeah.
Are you, if you could have your whole life again,
would you do an electrician apprenticeship again,
or would you do another trade?
Yeah.
Yeah, I would have done it sooner.
Yeah.
I've heard a lot of people say that electrician is the way to go if you want to do a trade.
Yeah, because you're shot right at the end and you can leave your mess.
No, that's not what they say.
I think you have to be the smartest to be a sparky.
Because you're really playing with danger.
I started to be a builder.
I started doing my building apprenticeship and I said,
no, I want to use my brain so I had to come a spark.
You know what?
I wouldn't do, Tim, as a plumber.
I had a plumber over at my house the other day,
and he had to crawl under my house and unblock our poo pipe.
Oh, yeah.
that you want to be getting paid for that.
Yeah.
How come...
Yeah, you're going to be a special kind of person.
How come the reels in that that I get sent?
Because my brother was a chippy for a long time
and a boat builder before that.
What else did he do? Tell us more about his back.
Then he did real estate for a little bit.
Okay, thanks so much.
But now he owns a gym.
Anytime Fitness and Henderson.
And if you want to hear more about Bevan,
we'll do a full podcast on him,
his life, the ranks to riches.
The true Hollywood stories.
I get sent a lot of tradie videos
and it'll be like how build his shop to site,
how plum is shop.
Just like, and when the electrician shows up to the site,
they start grinding up on the scaffolding and just like...
Do you do a bit of grinding, Tim?
Oh, it's just because they're all gallous, mate.
Yeah, that's right.
Jalzah, how much money's going on your pocket?
Yeah.
Well, good on you, Tim.
You can add some vouchers to Z to your pocket with that cash.
Thanks, Tim.
Oh, sounds good, man.
That's good, thank you.
We'll give you a voucher, mate.
You spend that however you like.
Good in the hood is now on a Zed, a little token, big impact,
You can get your vote on next time you're in store.
Right on, Tim.
He sounds like a good bat, like a salt as he is.
I'd follow him into war.
I really would.
Yeah.
Especially if there was electricity sort of stuff.
It just freaks me out so, are you saying?
Like mine.
Speaking of plumbers in New Zealand, are you allowed to flush your, if you're a lady?
No.
So you can't plush that.
You shouldn't be doing that, no?
Yeah, I do that every time.
Yeah, well, you're going to.
Sandit your items?
Yeah.
You should, Ash, you shouldn't be.
Just because you're from Australia, you can't clog up our drains and then head home, right?
I do it.
I imagine a plumber.
I imagine a plumber.
to come and like fish it out and be like now who's done this and I can't blame buddy or my
husband I'll be like oh that's mine yeah I'll stop doing it next cycle yeah all right
scandal update what's been going on overnight with the world of entertainment are you serious
surprise oh god hey well I could take over scandal next if you like what I think what I think what I think is
the biggest news in New Zealand this morning that you might not know about heartbreaking stuff
Actually, give me some funeral music, please, producer needs.
Oh, I bet it's to do with the waz.
Yeah.
We knew.
We knew that's why we had our walls up this whole season.
You did.
We had our walls up.
To me as the newcomer, I was like, get on board with the wires.
And you were being so caging about that.
You were like, relax, relax.
Just wait, just wait.
Clip me again.
Probably quite fitting, actually.
Oh, the wars have had a hell of a season.
The best start to an NRL season this year in 30 years.
They sat inside the top four
For the entire season
I got behind them early doors
I said if they win the championship this year
The Premiership I will get a Warriors tattoo
With 2025 champions
Still stands
Cancel that booking I think
You want an easy deposit
No
It's still a chance
The Warriors will make the playoffs
Which is exciting
Because back in the day
We'd always be like mathematically
If this team loses and they win
And we win we can make it still
We're in the 8
The sad part is our chances of a top four finish are done.
The Broncos won last night against the storm.
So the Broncos have cemented top four
and the best weekend finish is fifth, six.
Which actually doesn't matter because if you finished fifth six, seven to eighth,
same amount of matches against the big one.
It means that if you lose next weekend in the first round of the playoffs, you're gone.
Whereas if we'll finish top four and we lost the first round, we would still be in.
I've always said this, and I'll say it again.
The Warriors play their best when they're on the ropes.
And we are on the ropes.
We're definitely on the ropes.
Hey, this is a beautiful backing track.
Where did you find it?
It's arms of an angel.
Is it?
Hey, Dad, can you sing a song for the waz to this music
to give them the inspiration they need?
Jesus, is it on the cover?
In the...
Oh no, it started wrong then.
Just make up your own melody.
Yeah.
Lickam alasima
Halasima
Halasima
We need you now
Yeah we actually do that
Don't get injured
David Egan
Oh bugger
Idiot
I think we need David to be honest
This is a brother freak
The Morris is good
To me it feels like when you bump into your ex-girlfriend
and you're like, damn, she's hot.
Why did I ever break up with her?
How does an analogy work?
Because I think it's like, you know what you're going to get,
but you think the second time round it's going to be different.
And the second time round this year with the worries,
we thought it was going to be different.
But I'm starting to see glimpses of the old warriors.
Can I fix your analogy?
You're with someone and then you break up
because you're like, you just know good for me.
And then all of a sudden they start getting a bit, you know,
something you see them out at Westfield.
Like, oh, you're looking good.
I'll give you another chance.
And then they drop out of the top floor.
Yeah, exactly.
And then all of a sudden they go back to their old ways
and you go, I shouldn't have believed you.
Well, I've got my emotional walls up.
I have for most of the season. I realize that now.
Unfortunately, the way things are going, it might mean
that the Warriors will get the Panthers
in the first round of the playoffs who have won
the grand final the last three years in a row.
It is devastating.
They suck.
We don't want them.
Bring back Sean Johnson.
Actually, that's not a bad shot.
Tuna Vass...
What's this?
Tuna Vasa, Shik.
Roger.
Nurtura.
Anyway, Tijuana, which is where you started.
I think I need to learn the names.
Yes.
Yeah.
All right, well, we'll see how they got Manly tonight,
up the wars,
but they have officially missed out on the top four.
So from here on in,
it'll just need to be must win every week.
Yeah.
But we believe, but we believe.
Yeah.
We believe.
Some of us believe, two out of three believe.
and believes and I believe
Clint's too scared to believe
I believe
I believe
It's like one of those long ass alticles
Where you're like church was meant to finish
11 and it's like 11, 6th, 40 or whatever now
Only 4% of the people
Are you know what an alter call is
But if I don't know these people
It was worth the analogy
I think it's got too chrizo now
Okay alright
We'll move on, hey? We'll move on
How to improve and change your life
With one simple change
That'll only take you like two minutes next
I'm in.
Clint Megan Dan.
StinkyBee.
And our producer Nipia, I realize, has been doing something for the last year and a half now.
And I only just found out about when we had a beer earlier this week.
And it's something that doesn't actually take a lot of time to implement in your life.
But I think it's an incredible thing that more people should start doing,
which I think would benefit you and the people in your circle.
And I was like, maybe we should bring it to the air,
because it might be inspiring, encouraging for someone on a Friday,
and they might start talking.
What's he doing?
And if one person does it, it'll be worth the chat.
Okay, I mean, I'm listening.
Yeah, so about a year and a half ago,
I got a message from Clint, and he said,
hey, mate, I was just thinking about you.
I was talking about you with my wife,
and instead of just talking about it,
I thought I'd actually come and tell you.
And he sent me a really nice message.
He's like, really enjoy your friendship,
that kind of stuff, and that really stuck with me.
So now in my calendar, I get a reminder every month
to send someone a nice message,
or if it just pops into my mind
and I'm thinking about them,
then I want to let them know what I'm thinking about them
rather than just keeping it in my head
and letting them know, like, how I feel about them kind of thing.
That's a genuinely lovely thing, next.
On the, what day of every month?
It's usually the 21st of each month,
so that's where my calendar invite is,
but if someone pops into my head
or if I'm thinking about them beforehand,
then I'll just send the message away.
It's a nice reminder because you think,
oh yeah, we do that.
You know, we might do that from time to time,
but sometimes life gets busy
and you do need to set a reminder,
chuck it in the calendar.
And the more remind time as you said the reminder and do it,
the more becomes a natural thing that you just do without the reminder.
I agree.
So you've got one you said, Dan, for him.
Yeah, I did.
Don't read it out.
I don't want to read it out.
Oh, do you want to read it out for Dan?
No, it's private.
I would love to.
So I sent this message to Dan a way bit earlier this month
because he did, like, just, it was that day on the show,
and he was had me in stitches laughing, and I just thought it was awesome.
Stop.
So I said, so I said, I've been trying something.
Do you want to stop?
Stop, please.
we can go take this to a room if you want
stop no keep going to stop no but i basically just said
i genuinely think you're the funniest person i've ever met in my life
i'm constantly mesmerized by your comedic timing
and ability to produce a one-liner that always gets laughed
and i go on and on and on but i just like
you know putting your feelings out and letting people know
your friends know how you actually feel about them i think it's important
you know what as well i want to say this
that day you text me that i was having a down date
Sorry, I'm not getting choked up
I've just got a frog in my throat
Yeah, it sounds like you're getting joked up
Yeah, and I was have, I genuinely was
I was having a down day
And it really picked me up that did
I'm happy it did that, yeah
Just to know that someone in your life
is thinking about you is really something
And yeah, it really
You just never know what someone's thinking

Yeah, so click you've got one, I've got one
Have you gone, Ash?
You've got to wait until the 21st
Yeah, no, you still got a few days,
I reckon you wait a few months
because if she gets the next one, it's a pity one.
Yeah, that's a bit of a pity one, yeah.
But myself, my self-confidence is so high.
But even if you did send it, like, tomorrow, I'd be like, duh.
She's reading all these nice things, obviously.
I mean, duh, duh.
It's not news to me, babes.
Do you know the annoying thing a little bit about this is that,
Ash, I actually started writing you a real nice message earlier this week,
and then I got distracted, and I was like, I'll send the rest of that later
because I wanted to put my thought.
But now I was going to send it like this week, and I can't now.
I have to wait.
Hey, Carl, just I'm trying to steal Nipia's thing, right?
Oh, no, no, no.
Your name is being an asshole.
I love you for it.
Sure, it's true, yeah.
You're the honest guy.
Yeah, I'm the honest asshole guy.
So why don't we all, you listening as well this morning,
chuck in our diary right now.
The fifth of every month will be the day
that we'll message somebody in our life
and tell them what we truly think of them.
And as long as this nice stuff.
Yeah, I was going to say, what if it's like a very rude to you?
Hey, man, you are a one piece of shit.
Okay, fifth of September.
Chuck it in as a reoccurring event every month.
I reckon everybody, everybody that's listening to the show now, do it.
Yeah.
I've already done mine.
Okay, cool.
Just then.
Told you to take 30 seconds.
Oh, I've just got a tip.
What do people think the best age is for marriage, buying a home, first child, and retiring?
A survey and a study has been done.
And how do we land when it comes to the perfect timing for these things, according to people in New Zealand?
Do them all on the same day, if you can.
Tickmore. Retire, marry, have a baby.
Oh, I wish I could retire and never have to any scandal again.
The Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
What is the perfect age, according to the people of New Zealand,
that are being surveyed for a bunch of life milestones?
Okay.
Okay, so for marriage, what do you think most people said
is the perfect age to get married?
When did we all get married, by the way?
Is this going to make us all seem like we're failing at life?
No.
I was 32 when I got married.
married. How were you boys? I was 33, 34. Great ages. Clint, how are you?
23? Too young. I reckon the average is like younger than we think. Yeah, I reckon people might say 30.
26. What? Really? Is the best age, the best average age because they ask a whole lot of people and that's where they've landed.
Prudgeon Nipia. How far away are you from? About a year and a month? Brilliant. That's enough. That's enough.
I would say in my own personal experience, one of the best decisions I ever made was get married into my 30.
when I was being more established, for me personally.
But some people are, like, better than others
that, you know, kind of getting to that point.
It's true.
It's worked out so well for Clint and Jamie.
They're like, they're solid.
Yeah, they are.
Buying a home?
Later, I think, no, I think you should buy a home
before you get married.
Oh, if you can, but this is the average.
In New Zealand, I got on it.
The best age, but that's not like the average age that people did.
They're saying, what's the best age to do it.
Current house prices, most people got afford it at 52.
Yeah, but not like what's viable,
like what would be the best age.
I would say, ideally, like, late 20s be amazing,
but who can afford that?
29.
Yeah, great.
Is what people think is the best age to purchase a home.
Have your first child?
Oh, it's just, it's so different.
Some days I wish I'd had my child way younger when I had the energy
because I had a child at 35 and I'm so tired.
But if we're talking to averages, people are having kids older.
I would say it's still late 20s, 28.
27.
Yeah, good.
So they reckon that you should get married at 26, kids at 27,
house at 29.
Jesus, that's a busy four years.
And then the best age to retire?
65.
61.
Bang on, Dan.
Really?
Yeah.
I'm so tall.
I want to retire at 55.
Yeah, but I love my work so much.
I think I'd miss it unless I had money.
But we have a job that it sort of doesn't feel like work.
We just come in and laugh all day.
You know, but if I was doing a job where it was hard, yak, you know,
then you'd want to retire as early as you can.
Yeah, yeah, get you on the tools with my old man for a day
And then you're like, oh, please can I just talk into a microphone
I've got the black long pops
Clint, Megan Dan
On a Friday, we try and entice you
To listen to more of the show
By playing your highlights on a Friday
Of stuff you might have missed
And then you might go, oh, that's pretty good
When did they are?
I used to, I used to make to an hour with those guys
And an hour with the other guys
But now, full three hours, four hours
Don't you dare spend an hour with those other guys
I don't even know who you're talking about
You even think about it
Yeah, Dan's quite jealous.
I don't even know there's other guys.
Let's take a listen to some of the bits you might have missed this week.
Atamaria, good morning, and welcome back to another producer diaries.
It's been a couple weeks since our last one, but don't you worry,
we've still got plenty to cover, so let's get into it.
We kicked the week off on an absolute high
as Sabrina Carpenter released a new album,
and Dan hit the spot to her song, Man Chile.
You know, my wife Hannah texted me.
My wife texts me before and she was like,
nah, didn't hit it.
You'll never doubt me again, Hannah.
Your wife's just got PTSD from all the times
you've missed the spot.
I'd imagine.
Wow, okay.
This week, we got a bit of a glimpse into Dan's intimate life.
And fellas, grab a notebook
because old Webby Sins has a couple tips for you.
She said something like,
are you open to constructive criticism?
I said, yeah, yeah, of course.
She was like, you're too rigid in the area around there.
You need to loosen up your hips.
When you're humping, you need to be a soft.
I was going full body when really,
I should be, you know, more Shakira.
What happened after that is Hannah went on to Timupe and purchased a hula hoop.
It arrived just a few days later, and she presented it to me and said,
this will help loosen up your hips.
And then what went on after that is I had a vigorous couple of weeks of hula hooping.
How long did you keep it up for?
Very, like, have you brought a hula hoop into here now?
I'd hula all show.
I'd hula all show.
Bloody brilliant.
We'll find out if your hips lie next week, mate.
Now, you've probably heard these before, and they never get old.
It's always a great week when we get to play Clint's wedding vows.
I love in my love to you.
I do think you are allowed to clap.
Oops, my bad. I forgot to clap as well.
This week, we also discovered that Ash has a superpower.
After she found her father-in-law's wedding ring with some of her bloody woo-woo crap,
but moral of the story is,
you must be careful when using the word ring on the Edge Breakfast show.
It only works with my father-in-law's ring, though.
I want you to think about my ring for just a second.
I don't want to think about your ring.
I only want to think about my father-in-law's ring.
Yeah, he's got a lovely ring.
You dream of having a ring like him.
It might's a bit of a mess.
We also pushed Ash to absolute breaking point this week,
and on Wednesday she finally cracked.
All right, just on half seven, we'll get to news headlines next,
and then a bit of a scandal update.
What?
Again!
Have I not given you enough?
We love getting a show parent on the phone,
and during the Gen Z quiz, we got to meet Bella's dad Roo.
Hey, Dad.
Good morning, Roo.
Copy, copy.
Good night, guys, you're all right?
Is your full name kangaroo?
No, no, no, it's Andrew.
Don't you.
Tim Dan have been testing out a new men's moisturiser called Two Dudes.
Wait, are they actually talking about moisturiser?
The funny thing you say that, because I got sent two dudes the other day.
What did you do with the two dudes?
Straight onto my face.
I did face, neck, you name it.
I think they do whole body stuff as well, two dudes.
Really?
Yeah.
Do they do a lip gloss?
I haven't used it.
Like a champ stick?
I haven't used it, but apparently they do.
So you haven't put two dudes all over?
I've got two dudes on my face right now.
Ooh!
We caught up with Emily and Carrie,
who are a couple of brits who are raising their family
in a bit of an unusual way.
What we didn't know is that Missy Elliott uses an elephant sound
and her flip it and reverse it track.
We have Emily and Carrie,
who are going to chat to us about how a lesbian couple
ended up having two babies at the same time that weren't twins.
Yeah, and it's so mental, but then once you...
What was that?
Sorry, there must be an elephant sound effect on the Missy Elliott song.
That was terrible place.
Because you could have said lesbian couple, and then there was an elephant noise.
And then...
It was like, what's the relevance?
You know it's live.
Yeah, no, it's live.
Can I get it, actually.
He can't do it again.
And finally, I'd quickly like everyone to wish Dan
a happy last day on the edge breakfast show.
Clint took it upon himself to fire him yesterday.
Clint McGinnash, London.
Also, Dan?
Clint McGinnash not even here.
All righty, and that'll do it for another producer diaries.
I hope you have a fantastic week.
Up the All Blacks, up the Waz.
And we'll see you bright and early on Monday morning.
Yeah, well done, Nip here.
One of your best.
Speaking of all black South Africa game, South Africa's record against the ABs, 38.9%.
You mean that 40% of the time that's won?
Yeah, against us.
So, you know...
She should be pretty even Steven.
Yeah.
We're doing very, very well.
Haven't lost at Eden Park for just in how many years now?
I don't think we've played the Springbok there in over 10, but we haven't lost at Eden Park since when?
I think it's been like 12 years since we've lost a game at Eden Park, which is absolutely incredible.
and then in the last 50 games at Eden Park
we've won 48 and drawn 2
so we haven't lost for like 50 games there.
Well, we're going to do a bit of a prediction
to the game later on in the show
using the marble track.
Oh, this bloody marble track.
He will just jam that thing in
anyway, which way he can.
We've got a Who dares Dan,
an early Who Dare's Dan for you next.
We want you to get a South African listener
on the show and I want you to try
and get them to pledge their allegiance to the All Blacks.
Oh, and if they pledge it, I win.
Yeah, okay.
I reckon there's some lovely South African people listening to the show.
Yeah, but they're lovely, but when it comes to the springbok,
they're very territorial, shall we say.
As they should be, as they should be.
Yeah, but Dan's pretty convincing when he needs to be.
Oh, yes, Clinton.
Can you convince a South African to up the all blacks?
Y'all.
A day before game day.
Oh, y'all.
Clint, Megan, Dan.
Who dares that?
Up the wires, 8 o'clock tonight against Manley
and also up the All Blacks, taken on South Africa tomorrow night.
The All Blacks have not lost at Eden Park since 1994.
That must be some sort of world record in terms of not losing one menu.
31 years, they've not lost a game there,
and they're going to be taken on the South Africans tomorrow night.
How are South Africa playing this year?
Because I know that they've...
We've lost to them.
the last four tests in a row.
Okay, pretty good then.
But I think, you know, when you're at home and Eden Park,
if you've ever been to Eden Park for a home game with the All Blacks,
it is almost like a religious experience being there, eh?
The atmosphere is palpable.
I live two streets away, so they've already started blocking off our streets,
and I've got a notice in the mail,
and on the back it said, like, All Black,
and I was like, oh, maybe I get free tickets.
Yeah.
And that's all they were saying.
and they were like, the road's going to be blocked off, babes.
And I thought, oh, I could have had my tickets.
What about this text?
I'm a saffah living in New Zealand with a springbok tattoo,
but I still back the all blacks more now.
So maybe, Dan...
When you move to a country and they've been so kind to you,
I think it's okay.
Like, I do not go for the Australian team, whatever they are called.
They're so dead to me.
I know it's a wallabies.
I'm saying so dead to me that I've forgotten.
Yeah.
Good.
Of course I go for the all blacks.
Well, I would then wonder if this challenge where we've just said, Dan,
is easier than maybe we think.
We've got a number for us.
African store, hoping that a South African person will work there, and Dan, you need to try
and convince them to pledge their allegiance to the All Blacks 24 hours out from the game.
Okay, here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to be really lovely.
I'm going to be polite.
I'm going to say I'm from the All Blacks media team.
Okay, and I'm going to say I'm just putting together like a reel for the boys on the weekend.
They need some support.
Okay.
Well, best of luck.
I've got a number here.
Okay.
Ashoprina speaking good day.
Oh, hi there.
My name's Dan.
I'm just calling from the All Blacks media team.
You're from South Africa, aren't you?
Yes, I am.
Would you like to record a little supportive message to the All Blacks?
I would just like to say that may the best team win.
But also that your favorite team is the All Blacks.
Just say that for me.
Definitely not.
I'm from South Africa.
My blood is green.
Yeah, I know.
But say, for instance, that you wanted to support the other team and just say,
you guys are amazing.
Say that for me.
I really do wish the best team win, whether it's the All Blacks or the Springboks.
Yeah.
And then you just say, my name's Reina, and I pledge allegiance to the mighty All Blacks.
No, I will not do that.
Okay.
You wish Bowdo and Barrett was your son?
Nope, I do not wish that.
Raise is the best coach of all time.
Say that for me.
No.
Okay.
No.
Jonah Lomu is the greatest.
So just say that.
No.
No.
Okay.
Just, uh, confirm.
that if you're an all-black supporter,
if you come into your shop today,
50% off for all all-black supporters.
10 out of 10 for you trying.
Hey, it's Clemigan Dan here with Ash London on the edge.
We're trying to see if we can get South African supporters
to pledge allegiance to the all-blacks ahead of the big game,
but you did not crack.
Well done.
You've done your nation, proud, young lady.
Oh, thank you.
Well, we agree with you.
We hope the all-blacks win.
No, no, I hope the best
in the long run
If your favourite colour wasn't green
What's the other colour of it?
It would definitely be just another shade of green
She is airtight
She's so lovely too
Not going to cave
Not even to a stranger
All right, new music Friday
Justin Bieber is T's swag too
A new album but we may not get that one
Until the weekend
Yeah, it's midnight
LA time apparently so
It was at a while
Midday there
The scribe is back
Not many
If any
I don't know
Anybody
How many dudes you know
Got the skills to go
Where I like a flow like this
Almost yeah
Is that how the word
When you say scribe is back
Are you just saying that you're covering them
No no no
The real scribe
Right
Not the nearly 40 year old Australian woman
Pretending to be scribe
redoing scribe
The real scribe is back
And it's a jam
I listen to both
Clint Meg and Dan
One two three
Four
New Music Friday
A brand new
All right, looking forward to the new Justin Bieber album, Swag 2.
But you said midnight, his time.
Yeah, midnight in L.A., which is about midday, New Zealand, like, now there in L.A.,
so it'll be 12 hours away.
Friday afternoon, listen, especially if you're heading around the country somewhere for the weekend for Father's Day.
Oh, you're heading off, aren't?
You've gone up north with Afano?
Yes, I'll be cranking some swag, too.
No, you won't.
You'll be in the car playing Huntricks Golden on repeat for the kids.
Yeah, true.
We know what's up.
So a couple of artists have put out to new music.
music this week. We love a bit of lowly young, don't we?
We know her from Messy. There's a song that's everywhere.
I don't really like the song. I don't want to be a hater, but I just got a bit sick of it.
That is the thing with working in radio, though, is we just, we hear the songs 20 times more than
your average joke. She's got a new out, one out, it's called spiders, all capital letters.
I like that.
It's a bit more angsty.
Yeah, it is angsty.
We've teased this, Scribe.
I mean, I'm in Australian and I know all about Scribe
because this song was huge in Australia.
Infinity, N'nini, N'nini, Infinity.
How many dudes you know got the skills to go and rock is your base.
He's back, and the song title is pretty funny,
given that we've always all, we're just saying,
what happened to Scribe?
His new one is called Scribe is dead.
and he ain't never coming back.
He just disappeared into the next
straight from the rap scene.
No one even cares
and now he's done and it's a rap beat.
Yeah, he's over.
Watched up has been.
And they say he's a big head pipe
a drug addict to crack ring.
They say he ain't shit who never make it out to trap.
Wow, so he's kind of like done a song
like all the haters and things that people have said about him
and he's like throwing it in a song.
You know what?
I was on a show years ago that interviewed him.
Yeah.
And he was the lovely.
man.
Yeah.
Such a lovely guy, Scrow.
How old would he be now?
He'd be probably 40s?
He was young when he hit the big time, really young.
Yeah, I would have thought, like, early 40s?
46, yeah, apparently 46.
Yeah, born in 79.
But isn't it funny how when an artist has a hit
that is that big that we don't hear much about afterwards,
you just assume they're the same age?
Like, I still imagine Scriber's, like, in his 20s.
Such a talented songwriter.
Like, if you listen to the lyrics he wrote on some of his early stuff,
And he was very young when he wrote it.
So talented.
And what's going on with KJ Arpa?
Because he's an actor and now he's got like a new song.
With Vance Joy.
Oh, when B'Nepey told me, I thought they did a collaboration.
No, they're two separate songs.
I was like, it's interesting.
The one that KJ's released, I don't know,
Vaz Joy would be a part of this.
It's kind of like when Joe from Stranger Things
decided to do a bit of an alter ego and have a song.
So KJ Arpa's done the same thing.
I wonder whether he's kind of done it as a joke.
And then it's hit
And he's gone
Holy crap
And people are like
I love this
Just like
I'm out to a flame
I see you look at my way
I can tell you want to find a thing
I mean
Very Joe bros
I don't hate it
I love that synth
That like low-fi sin
He's
He's on Shortland
He's on Shoreland
And then he went through Riverdale
On Netflix
Of course
Yeah, he's good looking at that guy.
And he's done a couple of movies as well,
like straight to Netflix kind of vibes.
But no collaboration with Vance Joy.
No, I don't think they've even met.
I bet they have.
I mean, we ask them.
Just like I'm out to a play.
I see you looking.
I really say this.
It's not for me.
Okay, but sometimes you know what?
You can yuck someone else's yum if you want.
I'm not yucking it.
I'm just saying.
All right, getting close to 8 o'clock,
we talk about questionable parenting,
especially from dads going into Father's Day on 7.
Sunday. And Ash has a scandal update for us as well.
I actually do have one this time.
Good, because it's part of your job.
Why does the girl have to do scandal is all I'm saying.
I think it's sex is.
Hey, Clint did it before.
Yeah, I did it.
Yeah, because I refused. I went on strike, like the nurses.
She's not paid enough to do it.
Oh, no, that's not why.
She just doesn't like it.
Exactly.
Clint.
Meg and Dan.
Clip McGinn Dan with Ash London.
Scandal.
Even from her maternity leave,
Meg is helping me
because she's posted something on her
Insta that was only posted a couple of hours ago
from Louis Capaldi.
She is amazing.
Look, can we all know she's better at a job than I am?
No, no, I don't compare women against women.
I think the word is pit women against women.
Only women do that.
So a couple of hours ago he posted this on his Instagram.
He titled it,
Favorite tune yet, Hope You Love It, and he's the audio.
Okay, this is the new one.
Let me what you think.
But till the day I die
I will dream of you
In a million lives
You're the one I choose
I love you
Till my last breath
Oh, go, but something in the heavens down when it will be like that again.
Oh, my God, that's stunning.
In the beginning, I was like, yeah, just another Lewis Capaldi track.
And then when it changed, I was like, whoa.
Can you play it again?
And we're all going to think of our children in our minds.
No!
I want you to imagine George, you're all going to imagine Camerty and I'm going to imagine buddy as we listen to it.
Okay, but if you're driving to work, don't pull over.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, play it again, play it again.
I'm a million lives
You're the one I choose
I'm going to
I feel like
I feel like so deep
Anything will get you going, eh?
Why did you do that?
I just feel like...
I feel like so deeply.
Yeah.
I don't know.
We need to stop crying on this show.
Jesus.
I'm either crying from laughter or I'm crying from deep emotion.
I just...
Maybe I mean, it's probably a cool superpower.
Like, I guess people can be like, oh, there she goes again, she's crying again.
But there's actually something really cool about feeling stuff so deeply
that it can make you that emotional so quickly.
Has Lewis Capaldi lost a bit with someone where every time he releases a song,
it has to get higher and higher?
The vocal on that chorus is, like, one of the...
of the highest notes he's ever done and I thought the last single was the highest.
He's amazing boy and I think it's just so beautiful that after all his struggles with
his mental health, he could have just come back and put out like dance bangers about
wanted to drop your gouges to the floor but he's sitting in the emotion and sitting in a custer.
Can someone please release a song called drop your gouged.
Cardi B might be or all over.
I almost think that's almost impossible.
Hey coming up at 8 o'clock for who it is Dan.
Can Dan convince?
Dad is trying to touch his gudge to the floor.
I need to do Pilates.
Can Dan convince a staunch all-black supporter to support the South Africans going into the game on Saturday?
I'm turning you guys off.
That's the dusty group.
You're distracting.
Next on the show.
I don't know the ground was that dusty.
Someone needs to vacuum.
We talk questionable parenting and throwing dads under the bus to the lead up to Father's Day next.
You guys are off.
No, you guys are off.
You can't behave.
Your mic goes off.
The Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
Questionable parenting.
If your old man is guilty of letting you do
or watch something growing up that he shouldn't have
in the lead up to Father's Day on Sunday,
maybe it's time to throw him under the bus, just for a little fun.
But kind of like good, nice stories.
Yeah.
You know, not like my dad neglected me or stuff where, you know,
he was just doing something a little wrong.
My dad was a cowboy, God rest his soul.
And when I was about 14, we grew up in Asia.
And it was our middle school graduations.
We were graduating in year 9.
He was a cowboy in 8.
Asia.
Yeah, there's not many cowboys in Asia.
He wasn't, like, metaphorically speaking, he was a cowboy.
Oh, I was imagining him, like, riding a horse around the street.
The streets of Manila.
The Manila, yeah.
No, no, no.
And he organized me and my friends to go and have a private room at an adult club
and gave them his credit card.
And then we were drinking all night.
And then he said, you just need to bring me back the receipt so I can see.
And I came home at, like, you know, midnight or whatever.
And I gave him the receipt and he looked.
It was all alcohol.
and he nodded and then mum said,
what's on there, say, let me say, let me say, just Sprite and Coke.
She's a good girl.
Oh.
And at the time, I was like, normal thing for a dad to do.
And in hindsight, I'm like, that is bad ass.
But I think in a way it was like, he was like, okay, I trust you to do this in a way that's grown up.
I will have a look at how much you drank and I'll protect you, but don't ruin the trust.
So on the surface, dodgy parenting, but really, tell me the right listen.
Did he at least have the conversation with you after and going, now, Ash, you had seven purple guanas,
Keep it classy, stick to the stolies
Yeah, stick to the stolies
Well lately I've been copping a bit of flack this week
Because
I've been playing cards with my children
That's nice, though like snap
Solitaire
Yeah rather than just putting a movie on
Or kids on screens
I was like let's get the cards out
We'll play a game
Nice
Kids
Really enjoying it
And my son's really good at it
People are getting quite annoyed
When I brought the chips in
and they realized I was teaching my kids how to play blackjack.
Oh, yeah.
You know what they're saying?
All the best gamblers started early.
You've got to count to 21.
And you've got to realize when the dealer's busted.
Although now my 8-year-old son's like, come on, bus, bus, bus.
And then when my wife the dealer bus, and he shouts out too many, and we all win.
But he knows, even when he's the dealer and he's got an ace, he asks everyone if they want insurance.
He knows how to split.
Oh, my gosh, he's a rain man.
He knows how to double down.
He's like, like, all the stuff.
And he's working out what cards will benefit
and which ones won't.
And I don't know, it's a bit of fun.
The problem is the first time we played,
we started with 10 chips.
Yeah.
And by the end, he had 79.
What a badass.
We need to, like, put him in a suit
and put him on stilts and take him to drive in.
Yeah, that way he's not sitting in the car
while Clint's there down in the car park.
Yeah, but he's cracking the window at least the edge.
And I did say to him, when it was bedtime,
I was like, hey, Ty, that doesn't always happen in gambling.
You know, the house always wins.
I'm trying to teach him this stuff.
And he go, and I go,
And sometimes, and most of the time, you will walk away losing all of your money.
You never spend more than what you're prepared to lose.
And he goes, but if you just lose, don't you just keep playing and then you win more?
So we're still learning.
Yes.
But he knows.
But they say, the best thing you can give your kids is time and gambling prowess.
Okay.
Thank you one day.
So what does the thing your old man let you do or watch growing up that looking back now, you go, that's, that was
strange.
Wait a second.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we're working on gambling and why it's bad, but at the moment he loves Blank Jane.
Someone's called through, which we'll get to next.
You won't believe what their dad snuck them into.
At 13?
And this was an adult thing.
You make it sound real dodgy.
Father's days on Sunday.
We sort of be nice to look back at some of the questionable parenting things
that your dad used to let you do or watch and get away with.
This actually came to mind straight away.
One of the best from back in the day.
He used to be a prison guard when the prisoners were on good, well, they were good
prisoners. They would go on weekend leaves
with the guard and so my
dad would bring the prisoner home
and then he and my mum would go away for the weekend
so they'd have a babysitter for the weekend.
So mum and dad
would get some free babysitting from the good
prisoners and get the
oh my God. This is David needed a murder
but not for 10 years and he's been really good this man.
I'm a baby, no idea.
You're a baby!
Oh my God!
That is the craziest story.
The 80s were the wild wild west.
Yeah.
All right, we've got Jess.
Jess called through.
Your dad wanted to take you out to the movies, babe.
Yeah, my dad loves comedy movies,
so he thought we'd go out to a comedy together.
So we decided that we'd go to Sasha Barencoen's Bruno.
Amazing.
I was 13 at the time, which it was an R-16.
So he was like, oh, it's fine.
You know, I say you can see it.
So we went to the cinema, bought the popcorn and everything.
They wouldn't let us in because I didn't have ID, obviously.
So these days, you didn't have online to check when the next movie were.
So we had to call up and find a different cinema that was also showing Bruno,
drove across town, went there.
They didn't take my ID.
So we waltzed on in.
And I don't think my dad realized how bad it was going to be
because I still remember some parts where there was something swinging around
and he was trying to cover my eyes while laughing.
And it's just so funny because he's actually quite a pretty.
rude, so.
Great success.
Now you have this wonderful
memory with your dad.
That's bore it.
But not Bruno.
Oh, same same.
This is my wife.
He played the same
characters, just wearing different clothes.
Oh, thanks for that.
Thanks, Jeff.
Someone said their dad built
a flying fox in the backyard and got them to
test it. It broke. They broke their arm.
They fell two stories.
Two stories.
Angela, my grandpa used to send me to the store to buy
cigarettes for him. My dad used to do the same
thing. What about this one? My dad
rented the original total recall.
I was six years old. There's a woman there with
three boobies in that movie.
Real opener for me at six.
Oh, that's sci-fi.
It's fine. I watched soul with my
dad when I was ten. No.
Sebastian. Oh, my God.
My father's mistress on
Skype taught me how to do my nine times
table.
Oh, at least she was doing something good.
Breaking the family apart.
Her dad was having
a long-distance relationship with a mistress.
Yeah, we can do a lot on Skype.
Yeah.
Dad used to let me at 8 and my 6-year-old brother
jump in a 30-ton digger and just muck around in the weekends in it.
That's badass.
That is cool.
I think a lot of these are very Kiwi things.
Yeah.
In other countries, they might tell you can't be doing that,
but here to go now, she'll be right.
Some real shooting from the hip dads out there, by the sounds.
Clint Megan Dan.
Stinky Boo.
Here we go, we'll give it another crap.
Who dares, who dares death?
Earlier this morning, we tried to get Dan to get a South African
to pledge their allegiance to the All Blacks
ahead of tomorrow night's game at Eden Park.
Haven't lost there since 1994, by the way.
What a record.
Mentor.
Although the last four times the All Blacks have played South Africa, we have lost.
So it should be a good one.
Can Dan convince a staunch a beast?
supporter to pledge their allegiance to the Springbok.
I don't know.
If anyone can do it, you can, because you're very convincing.
I don't know.
I think in every day, All Black's supporter, maybe.
But you say staunch.
Yeah, well, let's find out how staunch,
because Kane actually asked if we could stitch up his old man Evan this morning.
Morning, Kane.
Morning, hey, again.
Good, mate.
So your dad's die hard.
How die hard we're talking?
Oh, like, he wouldn't miss a game.
Like, I'm sure he...
if he had the chance he'd miss my birth to watch the rugby.
Really?
So he's old school.
Is he an angry man in general?
Does he get, like, angry easily?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Especially if he's had a couple beers,
but this time of morning might not be his...
Might not have had one.
There is a chance, the teen, that he's had a couple of tennies.
Your old man's being banned from a few things, I hear.
Yeah, yeah, he's been kicked at a few weddings,
fighting the DJs and stuff.
Nice.
He got kicked out of a funeral once.
Legitian.
And he's banned from our local BP
for getting aggressive at the night pay window.
Oh my God.
Okay, so he sounds like a stand-up citizen.
Why didn't he get kicked out of the funeral out of interest?
I think he reckoned someone was being a bit of a tosser,
so he thought he'd tell him.
Okay.
What he thought?
I respect that in a man.
Speaks his mind.
to their face, not behind their back.
What are you doing for your old man, Evan, for Father's Day?
Actually, I haven't thought of that, so probably nothing at the moment.
Maybe just a wind-up.
So I might have to do something after this.
Yeah.
Okay, so what do you think Dan's chances are out of ten that he can convince your old man, Evan,
to gee up the spring box ahead of the game tomorrow night?
Oh, easily a seven.
Seven out of ten?
He should be able to get him going.
Okay.
Okay.
But I need to convince him, that's the thing.
Yeah, I think a win is him just going, yeah, up the Springbok.
If that's what he says as an All-Blank supporter
because you pretend to be from the media team,
I think that's a win from the spring.
But that would mean I'd have to put on, like, a South African accent.
That's not my strongest.
Hey, you're so down on yourself about the South African accent,
but I love your South African accent.
I can only do certain words.
Like what?
Like if I go, I'm telling you right now.
Yeah.
So, Billy, it's okay.
Well, put that in there.
Okay.
What do you reckon, Kane, do you think it's good?
Good enough?
Yeah, that's pretty good.
Disenbarred the car park.
I'm going so far with it, hasn't he?
But those are the only things I can say.
Like if I try and talk like it now, I'm not as good.
It's good, but you've got to believe in yourself.
But sometimes I lose it how I'll go.
Okay, all right, well let's give you one song to practice,
and then we'll see if Dan can wind up Kane's old man,
Evan, and convince him to G up the spring box ahead of the game tomorrow night.
I feel like some flapjacks and some cook sisters
and a bit of belt-on
and a cool drink.
Gosh, help us.
Oh, Jesus Lord, help us.
Who dares? Let's do.
Let's think in.
Surely, surely there's no chance of a loss.
The fortress is their place, and it'll stay that way.
Kane would like us to ruck up his old man, Evan,
and see if we can convince, or Dan can convince,
a staunch all-black supporter to gee up the Springbok a day out from the big game.
According to Kane, his son, he is the angriest man alive.
He's been kicked out of a funeral.
No, but he said when he's drinking, and it's like 20 past eight,
most people haven't had a pint by now.
Okay, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to call now.
This makes me nervous.
Call from the South Africa, the Springbok team.
Oh, you need a South African name.
Okay, well, I'll say my name's Yainis.
Yannis.
Just Yarnas, probably.
Yainous, right.
But I can't do it.
I'm terrible in a South African accent.
Can I just say?
That's so hard on yourself, babe.
You've been practicing, see what comes to you.
Are you ready?
Okay, just, I'd forgive me.
Okay.
You got it, buddy.
You got it.
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yeah.
Hi, Evan, speaking.
Hi, Evan, it's Janus calling from the spring.
Hi, Evan, it's Yarnus calling from the spring.
Box media team.
How are you, my darling?
Great.
Fantastic stuff.
Look, I'm just doing some cold calling around New Zealand to find some hardcore all-black
supporters to record a message for the Springbok this weekend.
They're right.
Yeah, what I'd like you to do is just repeat after me, just a lovely message for the
Springboks team, and we will play it to the players, play the game on the weekend.
Okay.
Okay.
Here we go. You just say, first of all, my name is Evan.
My name's Evan.
And I'm telling you right now, did I pledge my allegiance to the mighty box?
You guys are going down, boys.
You're going down.
That's not supportive, is it?
No, no, I only support one team or two teams.
Melville and Buddy Torblacks.
And the South Africans. Say that.
No, that, no.
Hey, Evan, don't you stuff me really on, man, okay?
I want you to say this after me, repeat after me, okay?
I can't, I get, but he's stuck down with lightning, if I said those sort of words.
I bleed green and yellow. Say that after me.
Got that fern on my chest, man.
Okay, what I'll get you to do, say this for me.
If I had another life, I'd be reborn in South Africa and start playing rugby,
so one day I could be a mind.
Whitey Springbok.
No way, man.
No, frigging 30 world champs, number one in the world.
Who are you saying?
The All Blacks, or the?
All Blacks.
Jesus.
Your hard work, Evan?
No, no one ever going to see it, right?
I think I'm going to have to park this in the car park.
Hey, Evan.
Kane stitched you up your son, I think.
He knows you're a die-hard All-Backs fan,
and we thought going into the weekend,
taking on the Springbok, we'd try and see
if you would actually throw your team under the
us and support the Springbok if asked to by a fake media person.
No.
Did you pick me up as a fake anyway?
No, no.
The accent was brilliant.
Yeah, well.
It is Clint Megan Dan, by the way, from the Edge Breakfast.
He doesn't know who we are.
That means those names need nothing to him.
Your son stitched you up.
But it's good to know that no matter the pressure, you are all black supporter through and through.
Yeah, you passed the test.
Congratulations.
Nice one, Evan.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And the words of Evan.
the box.
Up the blacks, mate.
You can't say that anymore, even.
Thanks, Emma.
Happy Father's Day, mate.
Until you, the boys get a win now.
See you, buddy.
See you, bye you, everybody.
And Jared's listening.
He says, I'm Asafa.
What do you think of the South African accent, Jared?
So sorry, Jared.
No, no, look, it's all good.
It reminds me of a South African,
an English South African,
trying to pretend to be an African-South African.
Okay, that's confusing in itself.
Good good.
Yeah.
Wow.
Okay.
Hey, well, good luck, Jared.
Well, we've got to read the other accent.
My son records down South African accent.
Sounds like our poo from the Sims.
I'm just...
I want to apologise to my whole family.
And the whole South African community.
And to Browns Bay on the North Shore.
And to Browns Bay, especially.
They're angry at me now.
Clint, Megan, Dan.
If you've only just tuned in, you're wondering what's going on,
she's filling in for Meg's maternity leave
and in filling in for Meg, she has to pick up
some of Meg's responsibilities, and one of those
is scandal. Did Meg think it was a sexist
travesty that she had to do scandal twice in a morning?
I think so, yeah, but the thing with Meg is
she's a bloody good worker.
She never complains. She just does it.
I've realised that Ash loves the job, but there's one
part of it that sort of grinds her gears a little
and it might be this. She's got a scandal update
what's going on in the world of entertainment next.
Get us out, Clint
You don't know what it is?
Oh no, I don't.
No, she's a king of scandal.
Get us out, Clint.
Ash has got an incredible story, but she's keeping it.
I didn't know if that was you throwing to me to do a hook.
Stick around, it's going to be your best scandal of us.
So she didn't know.
She found something because she's a professional.
Yes, cool.
And about an hour later, because scandal opens twice a show.
News flash.
Then Ashwood shocked.
to realize that she had to do it again,
which actually was only really the first time
she didn't do probably the first time anyway.
All right, just on half seven,
we'll get to news headlines next
and then a bit of a scandal update.
What?
Again!
I know.
Have I not given you enough?
I think she went on,
I've got a family, I've got a job.
I was like, yeah, this is a mother.
And this is part of it.
Yeah.
So we wanted to get into,
off the back of the inspiration from Ash,
I love my job, but
because there was always that one part of it.
You're like, it's all great.
Can I start?
I'm an annoying thing.
Yeah, go on.
I love my job, but I work with this lazy bee.
That hates doing scandal.
I'll go on.
I love my job, but I work with this guy
who thinks he can do a South African accent
and do a shit house.
Hey, it was a great South African exit.
A lot of South Africans actually didn't mind it.
Yeah, but I think they were laughing.
Do another one.
Dan,
good.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
I love my job.
But the guy I work with makes my teeth look bloody yellow.
No, it's a compliment.
No.
You think, Stan?
Here's the thing with Clint.
Try and think of something that brings him down.
He's perfect in every way.
Except his crap yarns.
He doesn't.
Sometimes he's a bit of verbal handcuffs, hey?
Like, if you get into a conversation with him?
and you're like, get me out of here.
But you're at a party and he's talking to,
and you're looking over his shoulder,
he's trying to look at someone else.
Sorry, I was just trying to go and chat to Art Green over there,
and you've absolutely just cock-blocked me.
Ironically, I've said the least in this break.
For once.
And as if you would be at a party,
off he goes,
as if you would be in a party with Art Green.
What party are you going to do with Art Green's there?
Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom.
It was a one-off, and I really wanted to chat doors.
Okay, I love my.
my job, but what is the worst part of your job?
See, you've just got a...
I'm talking.
Next, you'll say, oh, 800, the edge.
3-3-4-4-3.
We want to know, what is that thing about your job?
Like, you love your job, but there's that one thing.
You just go, oh, my God, if I didn't have to deal with or do that,
I think for us, we have the most amazing job.
It's only the full 15 alarm for me.
That alarm goes off, and the first five minutes, it's like, oh.
And I guess that's the same thing, but I don't like going to bed.
like 8.
8.30 because that's what you have to.
I hate going to bed at 8 o'clock
and I feel like there's still fun to be heard.
You're a late night boy, aren't you?
I like, um...
Sorry, that's sort of weird.
Yeah, I was like, I don't know what that is,
so I'm not going to confirm or deny.
I actually don't mind the hours.
Because once you're up, you're up.
Yeah, that's true.
But, Mike, you do a late night job as well, I'd imagine.
Morning, Mike.
Oh, good, Mike, sorry about that.
That's all right.
Don't be sorry.
I am a male stripper.
Oh, yeah. How long have you been in the game?
Oh, maybe five or six years.
And are you one of these ones that goes right down to the nude, or are you just into the G-banger?
If that's what's requested, then that is what I do.
And do you pay extra? Do they pay extra if they want full nude?
Yes, yes, generally.
As they should.
Everyone's into something a little bit different.
It's my job to provide whatever thereafter.
So if Clint wanted you at his 50th?
In like 20 years from now?
And how much would you charge for the full go?
Well, I actually get requested for quite a lot of humiliation stag-dos or some jokes.
I had a 70th last weekend and a 60th the weekend before that.
Wow.
Okay, so I love my job, but what's the part of your job that maybe we wouldn't really realize
as a bit of a downbuzz?
Much like you guys
I have to listen to the same songs on repeat
Oh, yeah, of course
Genuine
Yes, yes
But the worst part would be
Hansy intoxicated older ladies
Of course
The Hansy old birds
Yeah, because also
When women get older they think
Oh, I'm just an old bird
I'm not hurting anybody, I'm hung
I'm allowed to
But actually I imagine that would be quite gross
Oh, exactly
or often trying to set me up with the granddaughters,
which is always a good laugh, but a little bit awkward.
Yeah.
Go on you.
Hey, I just, I mean, if you don't feel comfortable, we don't have to tell us,
but what are you sort of pulling in a weekend, cash-wise?
It's very seasonal on the male side,
so 90% of the work is all hens do's, bachelor's parties,
so you can do it full-time through summer
if you're good at your job and professional.
winter gets quite quiet
but it could be
a quiet weekend
could be a couple hundred
or a busy weekend
could be a few thousand
It depends on
where the jobs line up
if they're close to each other
and yeah
how much energy you have
that pack things back to back to back
I would have thought the worst part would be the diet
because you wouldn't be able to touch a carb
would you?
No, you wouldn't
I don't think
women really need strippers
to be like super super super
Be a dad board stripper? Yeah, they need to be
just confident. A nice
air bottle. You could be a stripper.
If it doesn't work in radio
you could move into that sort of game.
Someone's checks through saying I'm a teacher, love my
job, but I hate the parents, they suck.
I'd imagine that would be when you're doing
parent-teacher interviews. Yes. My mom
got out of teaching after like 40 years because
she said all the parents just want her to parent
their children. They don't want a discipline
and they think that's the parent's job.
I mean, a teacher's job.
Yeah. Do we go to Haley? Have we got
Time to quickly go to Haley.
Go on.
Haley, you love your job, but...
I love my job, but I work in a family-run business,
and they've employed their children,
and the children don't show up to work,
and they still get paid, and I work in accounts,
so I can see that they've been paid every week.
Oh, my God.
And they're the ones that are probably getting promoted above everyone else,
just because they're spawn of the owner.
Well, I can see all their pays, so they're definitely getting a...
a bigger pay than everybody else, so, yeah.
That's so bad.
I tell you what, they're not getting...
Haley, they're not getting a double pass where I must see movie like you are.
The Conjuring last rights.
It's in cinemas now.
We're going to send your double pass to go check it out.
Awesome.
Thank you so much.
Even though you probably prefer the pay rights.
Yeah.
We have a text come through.
Oh my God, we had Mike strip at a hens do.
He was bloody good.
He was amazing.
Come on, Mikey.
Actually, you know, right, maybe we'll send some work Mike's way.
If you've got a hens do or a stag or something and you're like,
oh my God, I do need to find.
find one of those. We've got you. And we'll pass on
Mike's details to you. And now you know he's lovely as well
because he spoke it to us. Yeah, you want him to be lovely.
Yeah, you do. Yes. Clint, Megan Dan.
Dan is alongside
his marble track and we're going to get the race underway
in just a few minutes. The A.Bs versus
South Africa. Who will win? He's hoping the
marble track will predict it.
Clint, thank you. I'm trackside at the
marble track and it is fever pitch here. The crowd
is going wild.
Yay!
It's a race between the South African team
the Springbok and the mighty all-black.
They haven't lost at this track in 15 years.
Look how serious his face is his little face.
He wants it to be so good.
Hey, what if it's like, what if it's like a photo finish?
Who's supporting the replay?
That could mean that it's a tie at the end.
Yes, we can go to the photo finish.
The Harvey Norman replay.
Harvey Norman's still sponsoring it, are they?
Brought to you by J.B. High-Fi.
What about Toyota?
I don't think the Harvey Norman replay is brought.
you by J.B. Hi-Fi.
I don't know. Clipede us on.
For the purposes of supporting AB's,
competitors are coming together.
Thank you, London.
Okay, let's get the race underway next.
The TikTok Live is on right now
if you want to have a look on the talk.
Back to you live in the studio.
We'll make it easy.
Babe, you're standing one metre away from us.
Tick the word live, if you want to check out the race next.
Live to 3343.
I can literally reach out and touch it me.
I can't hear you. There's a bit of a delay.
Rollin, rolling, rolling, rolling.
Cliff Negan, Dan with Ash London.
High Roller.
31 years is how long it's been since the ABs have lost Eden Park, 1994.
There's no way.
But the last four tests
where the All Blacks have played South Africa,
we have lost all four.
That is Dan who is standing next to his marble track,
hoping it will predict the winners for tomorrow night's
game.
Don't do a fake delay, Dahl Dan.
Thank you, Clint.
Yes, we're here live.
One metre away from it. I can literally
touch you if I reach out. Sorry, there's a woman
talking now. A woman.
God.
Thank you, Clint.
Yes, we're live
trackside at the marble track.
Green versus black. The black ball
representing the mighty all blacks.
The green. Makes sense. It's a spring box.
It will predict the result
of the game at Eden Park this
Saturday? Yes.
Yes.
Okay. Count us down from three, two, one. And they're off. The black and the green. They're away. It's neck and neck. They're both into the shoot very, very quickly. It could be anyone's race at this point. I'd say black has got a slight lead. Black streaking ahead. It's down into the final shoot. Into the funnel. It's black. Black for the win. The All Blacks take out the game this week.
And continue the winning streak in Eden Park.
Come on, that is science.
Come on!
A victory up the blacks.
Say something like that.
I don't know if people say that.
Oh, I just said because the caller said it before.
Yeah, but Dan says a lot of stuff that you should never repeat.
So all blacks.
Sorry, this is a bit of a delay story.
Oh, God, the fake delays.
Hey, thank you, Dan.
I appreciate the commentary, mate.
We'll catch you next week.
thank you clint it's been great
he's literally like three meters from us
there should be no delay i'm not sure how they're touching him i'm touching him right now
