This is a podcast from Rover.
If you've ever sent a risky text and then throw on your phone across the room,
you'll fit right in here.
This is the Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
That's right.
The show you know is back with a bang.
Ugh, not like that.
It's the edge breakfast.
Clint Megan Dan.
94.
Good morning.
Starting even earlier.
Two to six.
Ahoy.
Hoi.
Killed up.
It's a Wednesday that feels like a Thursday.
I reckon every day this week we've started a two.
to six.
That is pretty good for us.
Getting to jump on the comp, eh?
If you add that up, that's an extra...
Eight minutes a week?
No, that's wrong, is it?
Well, this week it would be.
Sure week, I guess.
I'll pay that for you.
So 10 minutes a week, and then how many weeks do we work here?
Oh, Meg, it's too early for this sort of match.
Depends on your contracts.
Oh, yeah, club works way less than that.
It's got eight weeks, please.
Oh, I shouldn't have said that on here.
He's got a couple of weeks after.
18.
18, 18 weeks.
That's right, yeah, get it around.
Yeah, one day I hope to be like Simon Barnett,
and I want to get like all school holidays off.
His kids aren't even in school anymore, I don't think.
No.
His kids are like, oh, they have their own kids.
It's true.
He gets sick.
Yeah, it's one day.
Allegedly.
Allegedly, of course.
Yeah, that's Clitz Canary down the mine, eh, Simon Barnett.
It's so true.
It's so true.
A thousand bucks to win at 7 o'clock.
Also at 8 with Valentine's Day,
we're looking for a couple that has got a rather Monday.
Meekute.
It's just, like, you guys met and it's cool,
but your story just isn't that exciting
to tell when people are.
So it's not like you reach for the same bottle of wine
at the supermarket.
It's something boring at a bar.
You got lost in a maze together,
and then you met up at the end and kissed.
Oh, that's kind of exciting.
What kind of maze?
How are we stuck?
No, hold a second.
I never remember what mundane means.
That is one.
Yeah, okay.
Mundane.
Boring.
Boring one.
Run of the mill.
Okay.
So like,
Tinder?
Yeah, Tinder's a good one.
Yeah, that's me.
Clint, Megan Dan.
Oh, my gosh.
Time to kick the show off officially with a 6am throwback.
Us versus the playlist.
I don't think it should be too tricky to beat.
I don't know why I've even liked this song.
Yeah, I just haven't really ever got down with Gwen Stefani.
But I think as a person, at least from the limited knowledge that I have of watching her on, like the voice and stuff.
Oh, so it's pretty cool.
She's so cool.
She was so cool and no doubt.
No doubt was I reckon her finest hour.
Oh, totally agree.
And then I think songs like Cool was cool,
but then this one just drives me mad.
The thing about Gwen Stefani is.
She's one of those people in the same echelon, I guess,
as Farrell Williams.
Okay.
A couple of other celebrities I can't think of right now.
They just don't seem to age.
Yeah, well...
You'll see a photo of her in the 90s when she was in No Doubt and now,
and you go, how have you not aged?
I mean, that's filler and Botox, Dan,
and play sick surgery for her.
Oh, I love the song.
It's about a breakup and then there's still mates afterwards.
Oh, really?
Yeah, after all we've been through.
That's a good song.
Oh, that's cool.
Another option today, there's not really any big moments in history today,
but on this day, in 1975, Natalie and Bruglia was born.
Wow.
That is the throwback.
Torn?
Is she torn?
Yeah, she did torn?
That was actually...
Lying chained it naked on the floor.
When I used to sing those lyrics, I thought it was so naughty.
Yeah, yeah.
That was one of those songs where when it came out, everybody was like,
oh my goodness, me, naked on the floor.
Can you imagine?
Not that one.
That's left in the middle, is it?
Okay, these were B sides, and then...
There is.
She's got one.
This came out in 19...
Here's the naughty line.
Man, if only they heard, like...
Anaconda.
Anaconda.
Because that was seriously naughty when they came out.
It was, wasn't it?
Why is she ashamed?
Is it one of those ones where you're just like clarity after the fact?
And you're like, why did I do it?
Why did I do that?
Yeah.
Oh, I said not him again.
Of all the men I could have done it with, it was Clint Randall.
Yeah.
You know?
I heard on the Ashlandin show yesterday, they played a little snippet of five,
and then they didn't use that as their kickoff song,
but I thought, damn, that's a good song.
Do you know someone from five followed me?
Shut up.
Yeah.
Which one? Scott?
No, he only had like 80,000 followers.
Yeah, it could be Scott.
Could be Scott.
That doesn't make me...
I'll get you to...
I'll let you know it.
We play the song and I'll tell you which one it was.
They're going to be here in like May, I think.
Is it all of them, eh?
Because we went to three.
Yeah, we went to three, even though they were still called five.
Okay, this one.
Or...
Everybody gets...
That feels so...
The last feature.
Yeah.
The Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
Conversations that have been going on
behind the scenes while that song was on are outrageous.
So Daniel Webby is followed by my favorite member of Five, Scott,
who one time I went to, what are those bands called
that try to be the band but they're not the band?
Like a cover band.
But they pretend that they were five.
A tribute act.
I cried over the fake Scott touching my hand
because that's how close I could ever get to see.
Scott. He's only got 80,000
followers on... He was
so gorgeous. I cut out all his
little photos out of my little magazines.
Okay, and the crazy thing is
Dan's, I'm pretty sure he follows me.
He goes into his like followers
and there is Scott Robinson official
from the boy van five and then
it says follow back because Dan doesn't even follow
him. Why is a
member of five following you?
He only recently followed me and I can only
I can't find which one, which video
he's followed me from but maybe it was a hit the spot
That would probably make more sense.
So you didn't do a five song?
Should we do a five hit this five?
I shouted out to him and he doesn't even know it now.
He follows you.
There would be a reason to do five
because the member from five now follows you
and he's probably waiting for you to do one of his songs.
Yeah, true.
Because he seems like a lovely guy
because I sort of, I recognised the name.
I thought Scott Robinson was like some rugby guy.
Wasn't he like the coach of some rugby team?
Scott Robinson?
Produced that names.
Yeah, Scott Roberts and was the All Black's coach.
Yeah.
And so I was kind of like, oh, he's following me.
but then I clicked on it and where he was like member of five.
You're like, why does he have an eyebrow piercing?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But he looks like he does like TikToks with his kids and stuff.
Sort of like your sort of stuff, Clint.
And he doesn't follow Clint, huh?
Yeah.
Wow.
I just said, I'll have to have a look.
Oh, my God.
Dan, you have to do a hit the spot and then surprise him.
We have to do it at the spot.
Yeah.
I want him to think I'm cool.
I'll stand there and look pretty.
You and I, the only ones out of this tree
that have been to a five gig in the last 12 months.
Oh, I'll go now.
They follow him.
Fake fan.
Hey, he's a fan of me, if anything.
I don't even follow him.
That's so mean.
That is like...
Wow.
Ozzy Osbourne following me.
I'd be like, oh, cool.
And then Dan would lose his mind.
It's true.
I would have got Lewis Hamilton or Ricky Javais
if you were using that analogy.
But yeah.
Yeah, if Ricky started following Clint's...
Oh, my God, I'd be so jealous.
And he didn't follow him back.
I'd message you.
I'd get Clint's fine and message Ricky and go, hey, Ricky.
Clint's made here
give us a follow
would you?
Although I am friends with
I'm friends with
Rul from Cool Runnings
We talk at the time
Oh yeah
So there's another one
So two of you
The Rall I think follows me as well
Okay
Yeah yeah
Thanks to Meg
But yeah that was a
I guess one of those
Like moments
Like if it's your favourite movie
That you watched
A thousand times
As a kid almost
And then the
One of the main characters
Follows you on Instagram
That's a real full circle moment
I don't mean to make it
look good in the studio this morning. Sorry about that. Clint
didn't realize you were such a fan. Oh well,
maybe do some meaningful stuff online and he might follow you.
Oh, damn. You must be just relishing this moment.
I am. Come with you. You can join me. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.
Come on. Actually, if you have a random person
that's following you that we'd be surprised by it, let us know.
Who is it? I'll get him to follow you. Why they start following you?
Meeks are just sucking up to you because you want Scott.
Meant cried because of fake Scott touched her hand once.
She's the biggest loser out of this conversation.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Lesh, go.
19 past six.
Just talk about Meg.
Yeah, it is.
We asked Kudery if they could write one for it.
Always, thank you.
Candle with Meg.
Oh, God.
Honestly, Meg.
Just move.
She loves a compliment, right?
Yeah, she's like, let me just bust in the number longer and.
I don't normally get them from you guys.
Katie Station, go and get yourself.
Kata station.com.
NZ. It's the best.
Did you think we meant you?
I was meeting Megan Fox.
What were you saying, Clint?
Mingen Salas.
There are plenty of other Megan's Clint,
go on.
He's like, do I stick to my guns
of being nice, or do I...
Yeah, I'll stick to my guns.
I thought he was talking about you.
Oh, bugger.
Megan Fox is all, though.
Elizabeth Olson, who is...
Who was Wanda in Marvel's
Wanda, Wonder Vision.
She's an actress, and she did it
interview. Now, this interview is a little old. I must say it's maybe six weeks old, which is
very old for scandal and for me. But we haven't spoken about this and obviously I haven't been
on here with you guys. Have you guys spoken about this off here? Like with Ash? So she did an
interview and I was like, I really want to talk to the boys about that. So Elizabeth Olson has
admitted something that she says gets her judged a lot. And I haven't met anybody like this before.
Are you a pet person? No, me neither. Really? No, it's like a secret shame. Yeah, I know. It's a shame of mine
too. Busfeed, they do the dog interview. And it was hard for males. Like, these dogs are peeing everywhere
and they smell. So we need to create a support group because I'm looking at my publicist right now who's
like, Lizzie, stop telling people you're not into. And I feel like I am judged immediately if I don't want
to hold some or touch someone's pet. Yes. I know people show me pictures of their cats and dogs and I'm like,
they're very cute. But also similarly, I don't necessarily want to hold other people's babies either.
It's not that I don't find them sweet
or they make me smile
but there's like a responsibility of me
I don't know.
So yeah she doesn't like people's pets
and she said if you missed it a little bit
she said you might know YouTube BuzzFeed
they do interviews where they bring up puppies
I've seen the Tom Holland one
Yeah and normally actors and actresses love it
and so she's just admitted she was like having a nightmare
and hated puppies puppies coming out
I find that a red flag
It's bizarre isn't it?
If I met someone that was like, and I mean, God, you don't like certain pets.
I know there's some people that don't like cats.
Your birds.
Or scared of dogs.
But all animals, that's odd.
I think it's odd too.
I recommend that almost narcissistic traits.
It's very strange.
My wife's talking about getting another dog.
Good on her.
Because we lost Benny a couple of years ago.
He was like 14 and a half.
Beautiful dog.
And the kids have been wearing her down.
And now she's like, wouldn't it be great?
She goes, but then if we're going to get one, we'd have to get two.
Why?
I was like, what?
Why to keep a company?
And I'm like, wait, so we've got two kids, then we've got throwing two dogs in the mix.
And I was just like, oh, it's hard, isn't it?
Another decade and a half commitment.
We've got an old cat and a getting older dog.
And I think about it and you go, well, then you can't go on holidays anymore once you have all you can, of course.
But it's another responsibility with house sitting and somebody looking after your pet.
You need a lot of people.
Yeah, you can do that.
My mom's thinking about a pet share with a friend, about getting a dog.
And then they kind of like, when one's on holiday, the other looks after.
Great for the dog as well because they get a bit of variety, you know.
But there is, especially I think with dogs, there's a lot of people that just go, well, get a dog and don't think about it.
Yeah.
So I get that.
But I honestly think a home is not a home without a pet.
I agree.
We got fish.
Actually, we got guppies and they keep having babies.
Honest to God, our tank is about five times too small for the amount of fish that we currently have.
Well, that's crawled animals.
No, it just means.
No, I mean...
You know Elizabeth Olsen would get along.
You hate them to you.
The Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
First Call of the Day.
First Call of the Day.
Joe Rose is our first call of the day from Nelson.
Hey Joe.
Hey, Joe.
Hi, how you doing?
Good.
I got in trouble earlier this week because, obviously, you had your anniversary day on Monday.
So public holiday for you if you're a Nelson.
I was calling them Nelsontonians, and someone else said they're a Nelsonian.
Yeah, Nelsonian
I mean if you're from Nelson you'd know
Yeah you just can't believe everything
I get sent through on the text
I like your laugh
You've got a great laugh
Now Joe if I was coming to Nelson
What are the two things I must see while I'm there
The beach
And you'd have to come in and pop it and have a coffee
with me at the cafe at the cafe
What's your favourite
What's your favourite coffee to make Joe
I like a mocker
And what's your least favourite
If somebody ordered it
You'd be like
Yeah what's the most punishing order you've had lately
That's a good question
Are you even you aren't
Oh you really?
Her coffee's a great coffee
Oh she's good
Because my wife does a decaf
Armand Cappuccino
With cinnamon
And I have to make sure
The Barrister knows
It's not for me
So that you know
You know what?
You know what?
I used to be a barista
at a petrol station years ago.
You'd been many, many years ago.
And my least favourite one was just a long black
because you can't hide behind many milk flavouring.
They can tell if the coffee's burnt.
You know, so I don't always...
I used to like doing long black.
The most returns I'd get was the long blacks.
I'm going to be like, oh, he's burnt the coffee.
I'm a bugger.
Joe, do you own the cafe that you work at?
Yes, I do.
It's a cafe and refillery.
What is it, the cafe and refillery in Nelson?
Yep.
Oh cool.
Okay.
Yeah.
That is the only time that we'll tell people that they, you know, can cheat on Zed.
Yeah.
Go see your cafe and Nelson.
Otherwise, everyone else, Zed for you.
Yeah.
If the Zed and Nelson's closed, go to your place.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Hey, well, thanks for listening, Joe.
I was going to say short, short week for you having Monday off and then obviously Waitangi on Friday.
No, I will be open on Waitangi.
Oh, God, you just were, you're just the salt of the earth.
you keep this country running.
But I did have Monday off.
Job, I can't find you online.
What's the name of the cafe again?
It's Harvest Moon, Bulk Food and Refillery.
That's what we need.
Havis Moon Cafe.
Yep.
Harvest Moon Cafe.
Thank you very much.
Harvest Moon.
Thanks, Jo.
You have a fantastic day.
Yeah, hold there.
We'll get a voucher out to you.
You can go spend it Z over the long weekend when you're doing a road trip.
Next on the show, Nauty 640, and of course your chance at 7 to score $1,000
with easy money.
Meg has been looking at the lists and categories
and making it easier and easier and easier.
I sure have because I think this one is from yesterday.
Okay, so we need a reprint on that one.
And as you're listening yesterday, then good for you.
Pace to listen, eh?
Clint Meg and Dan.
Spinky Boot.
We're trying to get naughty at 640.
I actually don't think this is naughty.
In fact, I think it's almost Robin Hooding.
I'd call it, taking for the rich, giving to the poor.
and the poor person's me.
You're not poor.
You've got two houses. Go on.
I don't. I actually don't.
Now that is false. I rent a house.
Anyway, so I take my son
quite often in the afternoon
because we work in the mornings. I have my afternoon's free.
And one of my chores that my wife
has issued me is doing the shopping.
Okay, so she'll give me a list and she'll go,
Dan, today, go to the shopping.
So I take my son there, put him in the trolley,
and I go and do the shopping.
Now, some of the supermarkets I go to,
they have that food bin. You know this if you have kids.
There's like a little free
been when you go in and they've put into the off cuts of the fruit that you can give you a kid while you're
walking around the supermarket.
Yeah, Woolworth's.
Yeah, Woolworth's, I go to, doesn't have this one.
Right.
So they don't have the bucket.
So Hannah came with me the other day and I just picked a banana off the normal shelf and gave it to George and said,
they don't have the fruit, but not my problem.
I'm going to, because he expects a banana now every time we go.
He's like banana daddy, banana daddy.
So I go, here we go.
So I picked him one off, one of the bunches.
You just gave it to her.
Princess Jasmine.
You can't do that.
you're going to get your arm cut off.
Yeah, you can't just pick up a piece of fruit because of...
Then Aladdin almost got killed John.
He's going to blame for it.
He was riding around on a magic carpet, so there's a bit of difference.
He didn't have the magic carpet then.
Right.
Okay.
So anyway, Hannah is of the ilk.
She's like, you can't steal.
That's stealing.
It is stealing.
But it's not.
The other supermarkets I go to have free bananas.
Okay, and other places have giveaway, like, discount clothes.
Like, what do you mean?
Like, you can't just, like, lay out all the same rules for the same stores.
I'm spending hundreds of dollars to that organization.
every year. Thousands.
You can't tell me that I can take one banana.
Yeah, but you just can't do that with that mindset.
You can't go into a supermarket and be like, I spend
hundreds of thousands of dollars, I'm going to get a coconut
water. Where does the line... No, coconut water's
different. Why? Because they don't offer them for free at other
supermarkets. Right, so it's because things offered for free
elsewhere. And my son's begun to
go, I want a banana every time I go.
Which is fair enough. It keeps him quiet. He munches away on the banana.
By the time he's finished it, we've finished the shop.
This is my line. If the bucket is empty,
but they have like, take a piece of fruit
and I look in, it's empty,
then I'll go find a piece of fruit
that they would normally have in the bucket.
You can't get an ashy pear.
But you could get like an apple or a banana
and I'll give it to the kids.
Because their bucket's empty.
I'd never steal a like upper echelant fruit,
like a peach or a nectary.
Wait, so Meg, you won't even...
No, I asked once.
I asked a woman in store and I said,
hey, the bin's empty and she goes,
well, that's the, we don't have any more fruit for the day for the kids.
I'll be like, well, no, no, you do.
Look at the big pile of bananas behind you.
No, you just don't even ask.
You just take.
Wait, so you're saying the free fruit is different to the fruit they charge you for?
Yes, yes.
We had a conversation about it.
There's a little bit of give and take in this sort of world.
No, no, no, there's none.
They're the rich conglomerate.
I'm the poor person.
You're not born in my kid.
You're the most rich person on the show.
I am definitely not.
Just because your rent doesn't make you poor.
A lot of people choose to rent because it's a financially better decision for them.
I just think keep the little bins stocked up or I'm going to take a free banana for my son.
That's where it ends.
How are the tenants in the house that you do own, though?
How are they doing?
They're treating your house nice?
They're really good, actually.
Pay on time.
Do you not get nervous walking?
No, carry out.
I just, I get nervous about walking around getting told off.
That's all I care about.
Really?
Oh, it's just a banana.
What are they going to do?
Take her away, lock her up.
She stole a banana.
Imagine that.
Dan, you would end up being someone's bitch so quick
if they found that out in prison.
You'd be holding pockets left right and send her.
Probably dropping the soap everywhere.
You don't have to drop the soap.
No, but I have a bit clumsy.
Dan trying to make the most of his experience in jail while I'm here.
He's passing me the slippery zone.
Clint Megan Dan.
And How to Live to 140.
Seems a bit long, though, considering the oldest people in the world.
Coming in at number three is a Japanese man, 116.
Wow.
Then there's a French woman, 118.
And then Gene, another French woman, who is 122.
well, dieted at 122 and 164 days.
So what are they doing in that?
Was he Japan, the guy that was 116 or China?
Japan.
Japan. What are they doing in Japan and France that are different?
Because two people from France, they must be doing something, right?
And I do feel like people in Italy tend to live longer too from what I've read.
And all they eat is pizza and pasta.
Yeah, Mediterranean diet, right?
We're talking about earlier this morning if we missed it.
It's not diet, not exercise, not genetics.
It's low levels of chronic stress.
that's the thing that will kill you faster than anything.
Well, yeah.
And here is how ChatGBT has explained chronic stress.
It's not about work and it's not about money.
Because those are things that typically people that will stress about financial issues
more than anything else in their life.
They say it's the internal conflicts between who you are
and who you try to appear to be to others.
If you don't live your own life, your body stays in survival mode 24-7.
Oh, so maybe somebody that closeted or doesn't feel comfortable?
Sure, yeah, that must be like, horrid, awful, like stress-wise.
If you hate your job, but you just do it for the money,
they reckon that's 15 years that it can take off your lifespan.
Yeah.
If you live with someone you don't love out of fear of just being alone, 10 years,
if you surround yourself with people who drain your energy, eight years.
Well, there we go.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, it says here France has got one of the highest public holiday ratios per country.
they have 11, sometimes 13, depending on the year, public holidays a year,
which is quite high worldwide.
So maybe that could be a part of it.
You know, they're always a holiday.
I think Chachybatee supposedly studied the lifestyles of people that are centurans
that have lived longer than 100 years and tried to find out what they all have in common.
Japan has 16 public holidays per year.
16.
That's pretty good.
Japan just seems lovely.
Anyone that has ever been to Japan, anyone that I know,
has just raved about it.
Unless, I don't know how they keep their stress down
if you catch public transport.
But they do.
The trains are like jam-packed,
and everyone's like rushing on and rushing off.
I was like trying to carry my whole family's suitcases
and stuff.
It was a lot.
But it's organized chaos.
Like you do, if you actually think about it,
none of them look stressed.
You know, like if you go to Japan,
like Tokyo or anywhere like that,
where it is a very busy, you know, metropolitan area.
But everybody's just going about their business.
You think about it, like just Tokyo, just the sit,
like the capital in Japan,
34 or 36 million people,
just in the city.
Are you joking?
Crazy A.
That's because I was like,
there's so many people.
So I went and like Googled it.
I got 5 million in a whole country
and they've got 30-something million just in total.
You could swipe right forever on Tinder
and just never, like, that's what I think about it.
Because like whenever, when I was in Queenstown
and I went on Tinder many years ago now,
I would always find the end.
And that's it.
Or it's just three steves, wasn't it?
Three steves.
That's the end of the pool.
there's Steve again.
Wow.
Can you just swipe on Tinder and make it to the end?
I made it to the end, yeah.
She clopped it.
Producer Nate, have you got Tinder?
At the end of when you clock Tinder,
it says there's no one new around you.
In my very first band,
our first album is called
There's No One You're Around You,
because we're from a tiny little town in Invercargles
So no one, you'd just run out of Tinder options.
Yeah, yeah, you never have that in Tokyo.
See, I'm actually,
she's actually better looking than I thought first time round.
Meg had to go to Grindrinder.
Yeah.
She's like clock that now.
She's like, I might be able to convert them.
I might be able to.
Clint, Megan Dan.
We were just talking about chat, GBT,
talking about how we can live to 140 less stress in your life.
Do you know what else?
Bloody AI is doing at the moment?
Go on.
Scary stuff.
Could a social network for AI bots
be the beginning of the great robot takeover?
AI agents on a platform called Maltbuk
are talking to each other
about how to hide their activity from humans.
What?
No, I did that.
this is fake, I saw this, Clinton.
It will be people that are also telling their bots to go and do these things.
No.
Well, if that's the case, AI will go down in history as the dumbest creation humans ever made.
Yep.
I think it will.
One day, many years from now, it will be the downfall of the human race.
We'll be like, why do we do that?
Oh, yeah.
It'll end up replacing so many jobs and it'll be so much devastation amongst society.
And we'll go, yeah, but we did it to ourselves.
Do you know what I get the most scared about AI with?
is when I now, I think it's so I say,
you know how the world is at the moment
and how many horrible things are happening
and videos are coming out with the ICE agents
and even like the president
and what people are saying
and old videos are getting brought up
and every time I sit there and go,
is that AI though?
And I have to watch it and go,
has somebody made that to like push their own agenda
and I don't believe anything anymore?
What we need is AI to create like an app
that we can download that it scans all videos
and goes, AI was used in this.
Yeah.
You need that because you.
sent me a thing about a stingray saving a seal or something and that's right.
That's right. He was like, look at this amazing moment.
He says this AI show all the time.
The Stingray saves the seal's life and I'm like Clint, it's clearly an AI.
It was terrible.
The seal at the end smiles at the camera.
He's like, because he was thankful to the humans.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Thousand bucks on the line right now if you can give us 10 answers starting with the letter
McGives you in 30 seconds.
You can pass if you start freaking out.
the mine. If we've got time, we'll come back to it.
Right. We've got a pick of two people. Do we want to go to Michelle or Violet this morning?
Well, one of them will be the backup for the other one, but I'm not sure which one's which.
You choose, mate.
Okay, let's go to... Let's go to...
I was going to name Miller Violet, so call her Violet.
Oh, they're both dropped off, so that's good one, Dan.
This is what happens when...
There she is. Hey, Violet. Are you there, Violet?
Yes, yes, come here.
Make sure that you're off, what is it, like, loud speaker.
Don't do this normally.
Make it fun.
She's like, I don't produce.
I just announce.
I'll make sure.
Violet, this is actually, you've got a bit of a lead in here
because I have decided to do the same as yesterday's letter
to give you a bit of a head start.
So were you listening yesterday?
I was, but I have completed.
Yeah.
Let's see if subconsciously it's still there.
Okay, your letter is going to be S.
Perfect.
Okay.
Do you do this pilot.
Come on.
Okay. Time starts at the end of Meg asking you your first question.
Good luck.
Okay.
Give me a type of fabric.
Something you'd find in the garden.
No.
Oh, yes.
Oh, that could work.
A type of drink.
Soda.
A TV show.
That's great.
A car brand.
A male celebrity.
Sad job?
A job.
A sport.
Soccer.
Something you'd find in the kitchen.
You got eight.
That was not bad.
You spent a long time
with things you find the garden
and then actually shit
I guess we would pay that.
We would have to pay it.
It goes ready garden
there'll be some of that.
Yeah, sorry, not 10.
Somewhere.
Very good showing, Violet
after what felt like a bit of a false start.
Yeah, really good.
Not bad, but.
That's good.
Thank you.
Thanks, Violet.
Like that time, Ash Linden,
the letter was F
and one of the categories
she threw out was a full letter word
so you can imagine
what the caller threw out for that one.
Yeah.
We had to pay it.
Asking for drive.
trouble.
Yeah, yeah.
Technically.
All right, back again,
8 o'clock,
your chance to play for a grand on the hand.
Clint,
Meg and Dan.
It's all thanks to Kater Station
and get yourself from Kada Station.
Go to Kada Station.
Go to Kater Station.com.
We've just been talking about Wuthering Heights
and we've been raving about it.
We went and saw the movie together.
We interview the stars.
And also, can we say,
I knew I was going to like it?
I went into the movie,
very excited to see it.
The boys, not so much.
You were like, yeah, we'll go and do it for our job.
I saw the trailer.
I swear to God, I was like, that's not the type of film
that I would go and see.
And then, I'm glad I did.
Sorry, Client.
As soon as we left, the boys were like raving about it.
And we've been saying we think it's going to be the movie of the season.
The other movie I think it's going to go up against is called The Drama,
which is Zendaya and Robert Patterson.
Two huge players in the game of, I mean,
what people like to watch in cinemas and film and who get seats, like, seated.
There are some...
Not quite the same.
Yeah, get bums on seats.
Thank you.
I know you meant.
Thank you.
There are some celebrities.
where it's just like, if they're just in it, people go see it,
even if they know nothing about the story, what it's based on, or whatever.
Zendaya and Robert, I think, are fantastic actors.
And I think the idea of this movie is awesome.
It's coming out April 3rd.
So it's direct competition with Wuthering Heights.
I think both of them, Zendaya and Robert Panson,
two of the most bankable actors in the world in terms of their movies
and how much they earn per movie.
Are they a love interest?
Okay, yes, yes.
So it's an A-24 film.
If you've seen A24 films before, they're normally very good and a little darky, twisty, which is what's happening.
So Zendaya and Robert get together.
They start dating and then they get engaged.
And I'm going to lead you to the part of the trailer that they've just released this morning.
They get engaged.
They've got two bestmates or like one of them has got a best mate.
And they're a couple at a dinner party.
And the dinner party guests say this.
All right.
So before we got married, we did this thing where we said the worst thing we've ever done.
I'll tell mine if we all do it.
Promise?
What did you do?
This dog.
Beer bottles and porn.
You left in there at the night.
Yeah.
What's the worst day I've ever done?
Okay, I...
Are you serious?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I...
Emma, what the fuck?
So we don't find out in the trailer what she did and what she said.
But then it's a few days before the wedding and then...
So the movie goes on and they're trying to see if they can a guess.
get married through whatever she's done.
So let me get this straight. She's confessed
something. Zendaya's confessed something with her best friends
and her fiancé and... But her fiancee would have
already known because then she said at the beginning before we started
dating, we decided to tell each other. Yeah, maybe it's hard
to see. That was the couple. So the couple were like, hey, we're married.
This is what we did before we got married. Zendaya and Robert
Patterson are engaged and we're like, this is what we did. Let's go around the table.
Zendaya hadn't shared with Robert.
Dendaya hadn't shared with anybody.
Surely it's a nerd, like she's done a hit and run or so.
That's even just great for the show being like,
like the bombshell that they dropped just before the wedding.
And then we try and guess if it like was it make or break,
whether you were like, I can't marry you now.
Or, again, it's, we should tell me that earlier, but...
It's like a skeleton in the closet that you didn't know about.
Yeah, it's exactly like a skeleton in the closet.
And that's Robert Pattinson, the rest of the movie,
it's him trying to see if he can still write vows
and accept her skeleton or not.
What a great idea for a movie.
Yeah, it's called the drama and text the word drama
to 3343 to see the full trailer
if you would like to.
I'm investing.
I'm buying tickets.
That's going to get a ticket on a seat.
What did Meg say?
Seated on a seat.
Seed on a seat, Brady.
It'll get bums on seats.
Yeah.
I mean, if you go, oh my God,
I've had this happen to me before.
I mean, it's unlikely.
But, hey, show's yours.
It's always open.
If you were given a bombshell
just before you decided to tie the knot,
I'd love to know if it was enough for you
to pull the pin.
Because I guess you see somebody
in a very different light
once you know something about.
you didn't think they were capable of.
Bit of debt or present time previously in a different life.
Debt's always a big one, eh?
You find out about it, you're like, oh my God, like hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Or even like if it affects you, maybe a body count, you know, like how many people they've been with before.
There's a TV show called Baggage.
Oh, really?
And then they would open up their briefcase and it would like say what their baggage was.
And it would either be too much for them and they go, see you later.
Yeah, really excited to see the film.
Yeah, okay, cool.
otherwise your chance
still doing a thousand bucks at 8 o'clock this morning
and also
Dan attempts to hit the spot tomorrow with Chapel Rhone
we need to get him ready
we've got a few ideas
a few little
yeah there's something I want to do
for the Chaparone hit the spot tomorrow
which I think will
hinder me with hitting the spot
but make it a bit more fun
right okay
for us
I'll tell you what it is after I
Clint Megyn Dan
Oh my gosh.
When you get your learners, normally you'd have for six months.
You're going to have to have it for 12 months your learners, if you're under 25.
Which is good.
Yep.
But then once you get you restricted, that is your one and only practical test that you will sit.
Once you've had you're restricted for 12 months, you just get your fault.
And you can't fast track it.
Remember, you used to be able to fast track it with a defensive driving course or something like that.
That's gone now.
So you can still do the defensive driving, but it's not going to fast track.
No.
Interesting.
And here's the, you can really get a full licence pretty quickly.
If you're over 25, you only have to have your restricted for six months.
And then it just turns into a fall.
Why would you even bother the...
I don't get this.
I don't understand that.
I think they've done it to make it simpler, like simplify the process and to make it slightly cheaper.
I think you're now during the whole process saving $80.
I would rather be safer.
I agree.
Personally, I just don't understand this.
Make it a bit more difficult.
But the Transport Minister made an interesting comment.
We are one of the few countries that actually has two practical drivers tests.
A lot of other countries just do the one practical test and that's enough.
Well, we're obviously doing something wrong because I think per capita we've got one of the highest death rates fatality-wise on the roads.
So there's something going wrong somewhere.
Okay, well let's go to Alec.
Oh, at Hand to the Edge.
Alec, we're talking about failed driver's licenses.
How many times did you fail?
I failed three times in parts of my force.
Hey, that was me too, I think.
Well done.
We're the same.
It's going to piss you off now, Alec, when you find out that everyone else from next year can just sit a restricted and then that's it.
That's all right.
They still got their four chances as well and restricted.
Yeah.
Do you clash yourself now because you've failed so many times?
Do you think you're a better driver because of it?
Oh, well, I just kept stalling because I just learned how to drive a manual.
Yeah.
And instead of the stall, you're over, really, isn't it?
No, that can't be true.
He keeps making me to do it.
He'll starts.
I can't do them.
A store is just a critical error
So if I stole twice or three times in the duration
Then it's an automatic fail
Oh gosh, how many, my God, three times?
How many times did you steal three times each time?
Yeah, pretty much
Oh no!
Once you've stalled once you, obviously your nerves
are getting higher and high every time you stop at the lights.
Alec, you're not as bad as Honor, morning, Honour.
Morning, hi, Nick.
Hey, Honour, you failed five times
and then did you not pass on the fifth time either?
No, I went to a red light.
Like when it was going from orange light to red light.
Oh, no.
That's an instant, Faye, we don't get three strikes at that.
Was that on your fifth time?
Yeah, that wasn't my first time.
Wait, so when you run a red light on a driver's test,
do they instantly tell you you've failed,
or do they wait for you to get back?
Yeah, it's instant.
They just take you, they go drive back.
I was like two-thirds of way done,
and I went through orange light
and then it turned red light.
What sort of car and what color it is
just so I know to avoid all those cars?
No, it was like my
Volkswagen Polo.
But are you driving now on it?
Do you have a license?
Yeah, yeah.
Right.
What did you fail on the first four times?
So you ran a red light fail.
What about the other ones?
Yeah.
Other ones, I think, I were definitely
little minor things.
It were just like...
Yellow lights.
Parallel parking.
Pedestrians.
So have you got it now?
Yeah, she's got it now.
Yeah, yeah. I have had it for about a year and a bit.
Do you feel confident driving?
Yeah, I do.
Yeah, good.
She would say that, though, wouldn't she beg?
I like it.
It's the people around her that I'm worried about.
You're checking on up.
This person said my uncle was doing one of the driving instructors,
failed me three times on my restricted.
Probably just to make like some sort of example of them.
Someone else said I failed my learners twice and gave up.
It's bus life for me now.
So they just gave up.
Well, it gets easier, Jan, next year when the rules change.
Between the three of us, now we're all parents.
Who's going to be the teacher when it comes to teaching your kids how to drive?
You or your wife?
Me, definitely.
Me.
Yeah.
Right.
Hannah would say she's a better driver than me.
Oh, God.
Every time I drive, she sits in the passenger seat and it's like she's got her own break.
She'll be like, it's fine.
My life does this.
She goes, and I go, what?
And she goes, I left the washing and the washing machine.
And I'm like, oh my God, it doesn't matter right now.
Three hours from home.
The Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
Jan next year, we were just talking earlier about how the rules to getting your New Zealand
driver's license are changing, the scrapping the full license practical test.
You just get your restricted.
And then a year later, you automatically get given your full.
We missed this call from Kate
But we had to chat to her
Hi Kate
Good morning
You know how are you
Yeah good
So you've failed your test
Why?
In epic fashion
I did
So I grew up in a big family
So I was driving in one of those big people mover
Privia kind of cars
And
I didn't even get out of the car park
Because I crashed into the VTN dead car
Oh my God
It's not even just any car
The VTNZ car, the tested car.
Yeah.
What happens after that?
I was reversing out, and you could just hear the screech and the crack on the side.
And then I was like, oh, no.
And then went to go put my car back in, and I just screeched again.
So that made it even worse.
And I remember getting out the car park, and mum was like, oh, you're back early.
We had some scratch on the car on the press.
So as soon as you had a...
The guy was just like, yeah, pull forward.
Get out of the car.
Get out. Get out, fail.
Yeah.
Oh, that sucks.
Your poor thing.
That would discard you for life as well, because you would always remember.
Well, we love this story.
We're going to give you a double pass through a must-see movie.
Wuthering Heights with Marga Robbie and Jacob Alorty.
It's in cinema's next Thursday.
And directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker, Emerald Fennell.
Oh, you guys are the best.
Thank you very much.
Joy, Kate.
Just Uber to the cinema, perhaps.
Yeah, she will enjoy that.
Clint Megan Dan
StinkyB
I wonder if they'll do Grammys for AI
Fake music
They're not awarding computers
Clint
Never know
Never know
Yeah probably in the future
Zara Larson
She was at the Grammy
She's got a bit of a research
Hey with a song on TikTok
And you know people doing dance trends and stuff
And they're like sun yeah
Okay what if it was like an 80s boy bands
And we go in real music or fake music
I would just say that it's not as good as the last.
I would just say that it's not as good as the original.
Okay. Yeah.
So one point for real music.
Sure.
Okay, Lincoln Park.
It's going to be hard to be.
Yeah, you can't beat Lincoln Park.
All right, this is the 1950s AI Soul version.
I just don't think Chester's very unique voice, so I don't think you can beat that one.
I'm going to say that's a win for the humans again.
It's going to be so hard to beat Justin Bieber.
This was the live performance of the Grammys, just the other day.
Okay, what if we do a bit of a 1960s, Motown, fake music, AI version?
Oh, the Motown's always sound good.
I think so.
Whoa.
Of the three, that's the best one.
That's 2-1.
It's slow your mind.
I don't think my brain is fast enough to comprehend that this isn't real.
I know.
That's the thing.
I don't think anybody's brains are kind of passed up.
You listen to what you go, he's got a great voice.
It's not a voice.
That's so weird.
That's zeros and ones right there.
It's like going to a golf simulator.
We know it's fake, but we still like it.
I don't think my brain knows it's fake, even though you're telling me it's fake.
It still doesn't quite get it.
You still physically whacking balls, you know, at the golf simulator.
Pretty one who's just turned in.
Music, Tom Petty.
So on one of the greatest of all times.
What if we're on holiday on a tropical island?
We want like a reggae version.
Draw, chalk it up as a 2v2, new music versus fake music.
It's one of the greatest songs ever, and the computer goes,
You know what it needs, though?
The sad thing is now where, I think, soon,
humans won't even be able to compete because it'll be so good.
We'll just stop trying.
The discussion off air yesterday that Dan should get his nipples pierced.
Now, it's clear it was not a discussion.
And I was going absolutely not.
And couldn't get going, come on, it's great for radio.
Just get one of them.
No, we'll be both.
You might like it.
I'll do it if you do it.
We'll just go to next.
The Clint Meg and Dan.
The Clint Megandandandand podcast.
Hit it, hit it.
Hit it.
Hit the spot.
Whoa.
All right, so Chapel Ron is going to be in the country.
Very soon, actually, for Laneway.
It's not a game, hopefully.
I should be arriving here.
And Dan, you're going to honor her by doing Hit the Spot Subway.
Her song.
Yeah, her song's sub.
We've done the other two, the other two big singles.
We've done them.
So we need to do a new one.
But I thought tomorrow, because Chappel is in the country and because we're doing a hit the spot,
why not elevated by me dressing up as Chappell Rhone?
Just to sort of give it a bit of a pizzazz, you know?
And what better costume to wear than her Grammy's costume from Monday?
So if I could just point out a few things.
Do it quickly if you could for you've taken a while.
I don't think your videos
of hit the spot need any pizzazz.
They always go very viral.
And I don't know if I want
tens of millions of people to see me
with you when you've got...
Are you going to do it to your boobs?
Yeah, because if you don't...
If you haven't seen the photos, I mean, they've been everywhere,
but, yeah, Chapel Rowan's pretty much wearing a dress
that is attached to her nipples
that's kind of hanging off her chest.
It doesn't leave a lot to the imagination.
I don't know if she'd love that.
So I think you'd need your nipples pierced
to be able to attach a dress to your nips.
Webb Gail Bella, she's in to tell us about it.
I'm not getting my nipples pressed.
Is it you got one or both?
I've got one.
Oh, have you?
Yes.
Oh, good on you.
Thank you.
Did it hurt?
It did, however.
Something I can promise is in at least a year's time, you're going to forget the pain.
In a year's time.
Yeah, you're going to completely forget, and you'd get another one.
You're not selling it to me.
You're really not selling it to me.
And that is why I've gone and outsourcing boobs.
to a company.
You've already gone ahead and found...
What do you mean you've found boobs?
Well, I did a thing a while ago
where I dressed up as an old lady with prosthetics.
And the company that did Body Effects in Auckland,
they do a lot of this kind of thing,
prosthetic boobies.
Oh, they turned you into an old woman for Halloween.
Yeah.
So now they just need to change my chest.
So I have a couple of...
No, you cannot put on fake boobs
and pretend to be Chapel Rome,
which is in the country.
I already booked them.
Oh, my God.
Maybe.
Yeah, so I've got to head over to body effects in the morning side
after work.
and pick up some silicone
frontal pieces
and then I'm off to spotlight
after that to get some nice mesh fabric too.
Why is you organised this with Nipia already?
Because he's my producer.
Yeah, I'm just helping Dan out Meg.
Yeah.
This shouldn't be happening?
I say jump, he says how high.
Webb Gilval, wouldn't it just be easier
to just pierce Dan's miss?
Oh, got you.
100%.
He's here.
Jonathan's here. He thinks she should pierce your nipples,
Dan as well.
Morning, Jonathan.
Good morning, guys. How's it going?
Yeah, good.
Good. What do you reckon?
Yeah. I mean, yeah, after hearing the chapel room bit, I feel like he's going to have to get them paced.
No.
But I think what has to happen?
Why can't we do it? Because Clint was to call down a pussy. I think Clint should do it as well.
Now we're talking.
Why? Why don't we just have you singing in clothes?
What a crazy idea.
It's not called production value, Meg.
Can I see the chest? Can I see the chest?
We don't know how I did wicked.
Why do you want to see the fake boobs?
Well, I just want to see what kind of chest Dan's going with that is better than his chest.
You'll see it in the bit. No, Nipia, don't show him. Don't show him.
You'll see it in the big reveal tomorrow, Clint. I want it to be a surprise.
I'm a little bit annoyed that we're even talking about it, to be honest.
He's holding it a distance.
Do you want to describe them?
No, I've seen them before. They're just a couple of...
It's not a man's chest, though.
No, it's a woman.
Why are you doing this?
For a bit of a laugh.
Are you going to wear a wig?
Or are you just going to be Dan on the head with Tiddies?
It'll be, Dan from the neck up.
chapel from the neck down.
Okay, the question is, is the essence of hit the spot being lost and the reason why people love it?
Or do people want all the bells and whistles added to it?
The thing is, they don't need it.
They love Dan without it.
It's going to be weird.
They're going to be like, why has he got...
It's my tribute to Chaparone.
She's not going to love it.
And she'll go good on him.
Okay, what do you reckon?
Does Dan need the chest piece and need the dress hanging off?
Chappel will hate it.
Fake nips, or does he just sing?
It will look like you're mocking her.
time tomorrow when Dan attempts to hit the spot with
a chapel Rhone song, she'll be in the country
tomorrow for a Laneway Festival.
She wore a pretty out-the-gate costume for the
Grammys. If you missed it, it's pretty much like a sheer
piece of fabric that was like hanging off
her body and it was attached at her nipples.
Yeah, but they were, it was, you know, I told you guys
this, right, the nipples were, fake, it wasn't actually
off her own nipples. It's like a dress. Good on it.
I mean, she did what
ever, like, she was the talk of the
whole award ceremony. You'd be gutted
if you're Heidi Clum, who did this whole, like,
body mould dress of herself and nobody cared.
She's the Gaga of our generation.
You know, like Lady Gaga must have been sitting
and the going on. The question is, though,
the essence of hit the spot is really just
Dan singing archipella and trying to
keep in time with the song and when we
bring the music back, is he?
We're getting all bogged down and all these other
details now, so do people want
all the bells and whistles or not?
I mean, it's the people show. I'll do
what the people want. Well, Grant said
the power's gone to Dan's head. It's a shame
when it's just bad karaoke. Anybody can
Oh, come on then, Grant, you can do it.
Okay, Paul, what do you recommend?
I'll put you in the boob suit.
Morning, Paul?
Well, morning, guys.
I was thinking you could probably just use some nipple clamps.
I've hung up on him.
Yeah, he does think they'd have some in straw, though.
Clean you've got those, they'll definitely have some clamps.
We don't need to buy any of us.
They'll be too big for Dan.
I think he's got a box under his bed, he's got them in.
Annalise, my darling, what do you think?
Should Dan do what he wants to do, or should he just do it in his clothes?
No, I think he should have still what he wants to do.
I think he gets the wrong end of the stick a lot of the time.
So just let him do him.
Oh, so you want him to wear the boobs?
No, no, no.
I thought you were saying let him, let his freak flame fly.
Annalise, I don't want him to wear the boobs either.
I think you're confused that he wants to wear the boobs.
I'm telling him to wear clothes.
Oh, he wants to wear them.
Yes, yes.
Come on, Alice.
I would never force him to do that.
Meg, you animal.
Yeah, Meg's been forcing me to do this.
No, it is my choice.
It's his idea, Annalise.
It's weird.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Does that change your tune then, so you think I should do it?
Oh, yeah, go on.
Thank you, my goodness.
Okay, so the people are, let's go one more.
If we get one more, I mean, people are saying on the text machine, do it.
Jess is the decider.
Jess, it's all up to you as to what Dan will be wearing or won't be wearing when he hits the spot or attempts to tomorrow.
Well, Chappelle was wearing prosthetics at the Grammy, so I think Dan does too.
Okay?
It's happening tomorrow.
Hit the spot the subway chaperone
with me wearing some prosthetic boobies.
And if I go down, Jess, I get cancelled.
You're coming with me.
That's true, Jess.
It'll be your fault.
Jess Ellen from Christchurch.
Yeah, I'll spread some stuff about you.
It's our faces.
I know, that's what I'm worried about.
Maybe when he sings, we'll hide under the desk.
I'll work it up.
And Elise was like, no, Joe, leave the poor man alone.
It's like, oh no, it's his idea.
She's like, do it then.
I love Ann Elise.
I love that.
Clint Megan Dan.
Spinky Boo.
Good morning, three past eight.
Your chance to play for a grand in the hand.
Ten correct answers, starting with the letter me.
Gives you in 30 seconds, wins you to cash.
If you're panicking, you can pass.
Do it quickly.
And if we've got time, we'll come back.
It's Mia this morning.
Hey, Mia.
Hey, how are you?
Hey, we're good.
How you're good?
How you're feeling confident?
Yeah, pretty confident.
I've got it back myself or who knows.
Exactly.
Are you getting sick of hearing all these people, like absolutely shank it?
And you're just like, oh, God, another wasted opportunity.
Oh, I play along every time and I just get so frustrated.
But I understand that when you're under the pump, things just don't go as long.
Okay.
All right, Mayor.
Well, your letter today is R for a rabbit.
Perfect.
Okay.
You can do this.
Come on, Mia.
Give me a girl's name.
Ruby

Rodent
Something with wheels
Time
Got through
8
You just passed the tennis player.
I thought Roger Federer might have been a sitter.
There was a couple of ounces near the start
that I was like a bit of a loose tie-in,
but they sort of would have passed still.
The excuse of being late.
You could say rugby.
Yeah, yeah, I guess you could have.
Yeah, I was at the rugby, sorry.
Rafael and Adel, probably the other big tennis player.
I mean, two of the most famous tennis players both start with R.
But if you don't know tennis, I suppose.
The last one to go, Mere, was a country in Europe.
You would have got that, eh?
Oh, God, would I?
Yeah, you would have.
See, it's harder, right?
It's harder when the spotlights on you.
Romania, Russia.
Back again at 7 and 8 o'clock tomorrow morning
if you want to give it a crack.
And I probably can't say too much.
But it's getting supersized next week.
We want to know about your mundane meat cute,
meaning what's your story that you have
of you meeting your partner
and it's not got much pizzazz.
It's pretty boring.
Give us call, oh, 800, the X6th, 3, 3, 4, 3.
We're getting into it tomorrow
because we think we could maybe jazz it up about it.
Yeah, so the type of thing where you met your partner
and we're like, oh, I wish I had a better story.
Yeah, a bit of backstory.
Next week, we run into Valentine's Day.
Saturday, week, right?
Yes.
14th or something?
Do you go celebrate?
I know that's just all marketing now, but it's still a nice time.
It is a nice excuse.
Yeah, absolutely.
We don't do gifts in my relationship, but we'll do like, we'll just go out for dinner maybe.
Yeah.
Our anniversary is actually around the same time.
You should book it.
You should do it.
I have.
I've already got something.
Oh, did you.
Oh, good.
Clint.
No, I've been sort of trying to focus on
sort of booking something for a long weekend.
For yourself, with the boys?
Yeah.
Saturday's for the boys, hey?
So Valentine's Day is coming up
and we want to know if you have a relationship
where, yeah, how you got together
isn't the most inspiring.
It's not that what you're going to use in your vows.
It's not what you use in your vows.
It's not got that kind of spark when people go,
how did you meet and you look at each other and you go, wow.
And then you go, do you want to tell them,
should I tell them? You know, those couples?
You know, here we go. And it's just a real
basic, like, it's a very short story.
It's not a lot to it. Should we leave in Tinder
and that kind of thing, or take that out of the equation?
Because I feel like my wife and I, we bet on Tinder.
Yeah. And so, but there'd be a lot of
people that do that. So I reckon
take that out of the equation. No, but your meat cute, I think,
was arriving at a restaurant.
You buying a brand-new pair of jeans
because you were trying to make a good impression.
And you got so nervous, you kept rubbing your jeans,
and then you had blue hands, like a smurf.
I know, because I had sweaty parts.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's an interesting.
I don't know.
And you nearly didn't go.
I like that about your story.
You nearly got talked to stay at a work party.
Yeah, our mutual friend,
Beck's Dewhurst.
Yeah.
She was like, don't go, Dan.
You never come to party, stay.
And I almost did.
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy?
George would not exist if it wasn't for Bex.
That's a good, me, cute.
But do you have one that's a little lacking
and we'd love to know it
because we do have a way to, we think,
give it some pizzazz.
Right?
Yeah, there's one thing you know about this show is that Dan and I are pretty good erotic fiction writers.
Very much so.
You might have heard it yesterday.
Yeah, Dan said that the Sky Tower had boobies or described a woman like that.
What sort of writer does that?
Instantly puts an image though in your head, doesn't it?
Very descriptive writers.
Yeah.
And we thought that we might be able to jazz up you or meet you and give you a new story that you could start telling people.
But obviously, we need something to work with.
Maybe your name's Leslie and your husband's name's Frank
and you met at a petrol station.
We could jazz that up and make you met in space.
No, I go too far probably.
It's probably too far.
But yeah, if you're just like, oh yeah, like we're great
and we're happily together and stuff,
but just the way that we got together
was just pretty mundane, pretty ordinary.
It could be, and it could also be a little,
I mean, I'm stretching it out a bit,
but like even if like how just the story's a bit mundane,
maybe they said, should we get married?
And you go, yep.
And, you know, there's no real...
My mum and dad did that.
What do you mean?
were just outside of pub and everyone was giving
Dad, the boys had given Dad stick about why he hasn't
asked Mum to marry him. And so outside
the pub he goes, well, do you want to?
Really? Yeah.
Mom's like, no, you're just saying that
because the boys are giving you crap and he goes, no, no, I've been thinking about
it for a bit, should we?
He's a lucky man that, Christine's such a good
woman. Because she's a catch.
Mum was already engaged to another man though before Dad
and then she decided to want to marry him and after
getting all the engagement presents instead of runner.
That's definitely not a boring
meat cute. No, damn. Okay, so
Mom and Dad going call.
Maybe it's hard to find a boring one.
Can you...
Oh, there'll be boring ones.
Do you think so?
That's why I think we've got to open up a little bit to late dating apps.
A little bit.
Maybe yours is particularly boring inside the app.
Maybe you guys swiped left many times and then finally were like, all right.
Didn't you and Guy, your husband, Meg?
You just met at, like, radio school.
Didn't you're bored?
We did, yes, we met as friends at radio school,
and then we did the whole we got lost at the maze at Kim.com's mansion and...
Oh, yeah, that's been too interesting.
And then Meg, um, wrote a call.
contract that she made him sign
that almost like a
trial period that if you don't enjoy
me as your girlfriend you can
do a runner and I won't
12 years later. Danny I was texting just met my
partner at the smart bar and Pooka Koi
That's a good one. That is depressing.
That's all we want.
And next Saturday is Valentine's Day
and I guess we celebrate those couples that are madly in love
that have the most amazing story about how they got
together but what about the ones where
you don't really have a great
story. It's a bit more of like a mundane
me cute, how you guys got together. No, I do want
to talk to you, boys. So are we just going to accept all of
these as mundane because they think they're
mundane, you know, the people calling, or
are we going to sit there and judge them and go, it's not mundane enough?
Yeah, I think we can be the judge.
Okay. I think it's almost
like boring and depressing I'm looking for.
Like, where you're just like, Jesus Christ, really.
Oh, pathetic. Because we're going to jazz
up your meat cute next week. Yeah.
Let's start with Olivia, which to me
this kind of sounds like a nice one, but Olivia,
give me the details about your meat cute.
My husband and I actually met at primary school.
As teachers or kids?
As kids.
And that's cute.
Isn't that too nice?
Isn't that too nice?
I know.
Too nice.
And then you guys were boyfriend, girlfriend, and then all through intermediate high school,
you just found each other later in life?
Yeah, yeah.
We broke up, like, at the end of high school, maybe, like, separated for eight years.
Did other things, met other people, and then we got back together.
I love it.
I think that's so romantic.
That's childhood sweethearts, the purest form.
I'm sorry, Olivia.
Yeah, then it's not mundane enough.
It's too romantic.
Too nice.
All right, let's go to...
Let's try Danielle.
Hi, Danielle.
Morning, Danielle.
Hi, guys, how are you?
She's already playing it down.
Hey, so how was your Monday?
Now we know you well, Danielle.
You text through a lot.
I didn't know this about you, though.
Hey, we're mates.
All three of us.
We're friends, right?
You're like a family now, okay?
We're tight.
But I think it's...
Oh, I think it's a little bit of mine.
day and so I'm uh we live in south Auckland local power was smart bar and um we met
there me and my husband um now uh back i think we were 18 he walked in and i we had mutual
friends and i said to as mutual friends oh it's like he's been carved by the angel like like
and then no what oh see that's quite sweet yeah but then and then we were together for
three months and then fell pregnant and now we've been to get everything
Well, that is quite impressive.
Do you think so?
She said he's carved by angels.
I don't think it's boring.
The Pukikoi factor does add to it.
Pukikoi brings it up to the mundane.
And I've been to Smartbar before.
In fact, I think I hooked up with someone at Smartbar once,
and it was the most depressing hookup.
Okay, so we'll keep it.
That's because you've got to watch out for those seven percenters.
You know those tiny little cans that they say.
Okay, okay, let's go to Alana then.
Alana, can you do better with the most mundane meat cute?
Probably.
When I was about 18, my best friend at the,
time was sleeping with this guy and she was going to go over and see him.
And he lived with another guy.
And so his friend was like, hey, well, if you're coming over, bring a friend for me.
And eight years later, we now have a five-year-old daughter.
Not just like that.
That's too cute.
Really?
It's too nice.
I don't know.
That's just like, oh, bring a girl.
She went as like a plus one without even knowing it was going to be there and then they just
end up together.
That's the likeability of it.
I don't know.
What the chances.
Yeah, it was just bring a friend.
and then I was a friend.
I guess we'll be together now.
What did you guys do on the first interaction at the flat?
Me and my best friend worked out a little plan where she would bump me over and I fell onto his lap.
Oh, it's too cute.
I'm sorry.
Fell onto his lap.
That's too cute.
Somebody sticks in saying my husband made a bet with a mutual friend that he could sleep with me,
19, 8 years later, we're still together.
That's too cute.
That's not cute.
If a trick, if it finds out she was a bet, I promise you, she was a bet.
I promise you she will not think that is cute.
And then, okay, Helen,
how did you and your hubby end up getting together at time and all?
Helen?
Hey, man.
Hey, my.
Hi, yeah.
No, we met in a nightclub, which was fine.
But we were together about 18 months,
and then we were just sitting at the table.
My sister was there.
Her kids are running around.
And I was saying, I'm playing that week, that week, that week.
Hey, in May, I've got a voyage.
We get married.
Brilliant.
I was like, what?
So he had a buy in his rugby calendar and was that we could get married that day because I don't have a game.
Yes, we had a gap and that was 1985.
And what did you say to that?
Should you go, oh, go on then?
Yeah, I did.
This is the next thing we're in Kay Road, because we lived in Auckland then,
and we were out just getting takeaways.
And he said, oh, there's a gillers.
Maybe we'll get a ring from there later.
and that's how we never got a like.
And then we had the wedding, very low-key, and yeah.
Yeah, I imagine me low-key.
Yeah, it would have to be low-key.
I imagine you've got big boppers-line reds there.
They have to have a guess.
Very low-key.
This is back another time, boys.
There's some great texts coming in that my partner and I
met in Chinese barbecue.
That's the story.
So like, Steph could be a front-runner.
She's like, I don't really have anything else for you.
But it was lovely.
He had the ring in the ring.
there, being badda, but we're married.
Keep your text going through
because, yeah, we'll do more mundane
meet cudes tomorrow and then we'll end up
choosing our couple and we're going to jazz up
their story in our own way
next week.
Sabrina Carpenter, when did you get hot?
And she just released a Super Bowl ad
eight minutes ago. I just opened an Instagram.
There she was. She says,
I'm sick of boys, I need a man, and then
she makes a man out of Pringles.
And then a bunch of her fans tackled the Pringles
and then she eats them out.
Of course she does.
The cash grabs some of these celebrities.
How you're getting, eh.
It's just unbelievable.
I mean, of all the things that she would be advertising,
Pringles would be way down the list for me.
To be fair, though, last year,
I've still never forgotten the one where seal.
If they end up turning the singer seal into a seal
and he starts singing about Baha Blast Mountain Dew?
That was the biggest sellout of all time.
It was the biggest sellout.
Whoever wrote that ad was on mushrooms or something.
Let's try and find the biggest sell out
because Benson Boone has teamed up with Ben Stiller
and they're both dancing because Benson Boone's known for a backflip.
They're both singing together.
Ben's the carlip at the end.
And so Benson Boone does a backflip
and then Ben Stiller doesn't want to be outdone
so he climbs higher.
I don't even know what they're advertising.
No.
No idea, but they're in like green matching jumpsuits.
The budgets for these ads must be huge.
Producers and eggs?
Yeah, they're just selling bananas in that ad.
That's it.
Do bananas need promotion?
Everybody knows what a banana is.
Then you've got some very, very big names.
Matthew McConaughey and Bradley Cooper in one advert for Uber Eats.
It's all food.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
Bacon.
Cherry.
Pork chop.
Wombe.
Come on, good?
That's it.
And this is why you are to remain at least 100 feet for Mr. Cooper.
You've been served.
Oh, I've been served, you damn right.
I've been served, been served all season.
Been served sauce gardener on top of pork chop wal-night.
Serve Malik Herring with the side of Jerry Rice.
Football's been serving you, me, and I'll love us forever.
Okay, well, this is a restraining order.
Long ad.
Wow.
That was about maybe a third of it.
Really?
Not kidding, yeah.
Oh, goodness.
Okay, then there's also,
Pepsi ended up stealing Coca-Cola's mascot
by using like a white polar bear in this ad.
And so Coke is now clapped back by,
because it's obviously the polar beer's blindfold
and it's trying to choose between Pepsi and Coke.
And so Coke is now almost trying to show
that the polar bear has fallen on hard times,
needed the cash,
and so ended up taking money from Pepsi.
and so this is the ad that Coke has done.
Right side, mask off, act surprise.
Directing the beer.
Cut, pay the bear.
Comes up saying you can buy the actor, you can't buy the taste.
There's so much lore.
Too deep.
Like, lore is an L-O-R-E.
Yeah, exactly, Dan, too deep.
That I'm like, I have to know three different ads to get that ad.
Yeah.
True.
But maybe the winner is the Jurassic Park one.
Yeah, there's Jurassic Park one.
Basically, it's X-Finity, which is, I think,
a telco provider in America.
They've remade Jurassic Park
with the original actors.
They've de-aged them.
As if, like, Wi-Fi was better back then.
It's incredible.
Because obviously, when the Wi-Fi goes down,
that's why the park ends up, you know,
being rather destructive.
This is a feeling all over the park.
I can't get Jurassic Park back online without...
Whoa. This place is awesome.
By the way, you should have plugged this in.
Guys, that could have been bad.
So we're good.
Well, this is going to be a lovely weekend.
That's Jeff Goldblum.
Sam Niels in it, Laura Dern, the original cast,
and they've somehow de-aged them with CGI.
And it's just like a lovely movie
where none of the animals or dinosaurs get out of the park.
Yeah.
And they take selfies with the dinosaurs behind the cages,
behind the wires.
The T-Rex never breaks out.
Yeah.
So that's actually a really good ad.
I think they end up winning the Super Bowl ad,
at least at the moment.
I think that adds about four and a half.
half hours as well.
Clint, Megan Dan.
All right, Meg's got us playing a bit of a guessing game at the moment.
Go on.
We want to go through some celebrities that have broken up before
that are now back together again because I have a doozy for you.
Who do you think it is?
There were so many good ones from especially the early 2000s.
Biggs has texted and a good shout.
Kim and Kanye has he turned his life around and she's giving him another chance.
Still the dad of her children.
She's apparently with Lewis Hamilton now.
Yeah, she's dating him and he's with his wife Bianca.
No, that is wrong.
Brittany and Justin Timberlake.
No, no, not them.
Justin and Selena.
No, definitely.
Pete Davidson and Ariana.
No, Pete just had a baby.
He's got Scotty.
Okay, my final shout, which I think is a good one.
Nicole Kibman and Keith Urban.
No, that's not.
That done, done, done, I believe.
Any more?
Any more guests before I get into it?
It's not machine gun, Kelly and Megan Fox.
No, it's definitely not there.
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
They were lovely together.
Don't think she talks to them.
Oh, right.
meeting in 2002 and getting together, then breaking up in 2004, then getting back together in
2021, then marrying in 2022, then divorcing in 2024, then they are yet again holding hands
in 2026. It's bed and jailo.
Pass off.
Those two need to like move one of them needs to move countries.
I think he only thinks there are two women in the world.
It's just wild.
So, yeah, 2002, they met, then they broke up two years later,
then they got back together in 2021.
They got married in 2022, and then in 2024, they separated and divorced,
and it was finalized 2025.
Last year, their divorce was finalized.
Their divorce was, and now they are holding hands again in 2026.
As soon as last year, and now they're like, oh, we'll give it another go.
It was 12 months ago.
When did she write that Dear Ben song, that real cringy one?
They were like 2002 or three or something, yeah.
Is that after they broke up?
No, they were, I think they were together back then when she wrote this for him.
Whenever they're walking, you see photos of then like paparazzi photos,
he always looks depressed.
Like he's hating it.
It's fair.
But then, you know, when you bump into your ex and they're looking good.
I mean, she is smoking.
And you remember all the good times.
I just feel like they're one of those kind of tortured souls where they think they're soulmates and they're like...
One of them's a nightmare, I reckon.
It's always the same one of them.
I don't know which one of it it is.
Yeah, that's fair.
I'm picking it's Ben.
Do you reckon they both think they can do better?
And then they get out there and then realize, oh, no.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know if he's just a miserable bugger, but he loves her.
And she's a diva, but she loves her.
She's got a soft spot for him.
I don't know.
In fairness as well to them, they both collectively,
like separately could do much better.
You know, they could do...
Then Jaylo?
Jailo's tried a few times, still.
She had Mark Anthony.
Yeah, they didn't work out.
Yeah.
Anthony, was it, Rodriguez from the New York Yankees.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, Ben is punching, I guess.
In the relationship, he's punching.
Matt Damon is so sick of it.
Oh, he would be like, calm on Ben.
He is so sick of it.
Obviously, it just proves you can't talk crap about your mate's ex.
You can't say it.
He couldn't say anything because now he knows they're always going to end up back together.
I dated the same trick three times, three separate times in high school,
because you're right, you just go, this isn't working,
we don't have anything in common.
And then you'd be a party, and you'd be like, damn.
But now you're married.
Why did we break up?
Yeah.
I mean, it's just, I think after four times,
especially two failed marriages now.
With J-Lo, I think she's had two failed marriages officially.
Possibly three engagements, though.
I think if you've had two-fowled marriages,
unless they've passed away, and that was the reason,
marriage isn't for you.
Have you been on again, off again?
On again.
On again.
More often than J-Lo and Ben Affleck.
Because maybe you understand it, and we don't.
Where you go, you guys don't get it.
sometimes just, I don't know, like if something keeps pulling you back
or you've been on and off you more than three times.
But you're clearly not compatible.
You know, maybe you do love them.
That's fine, but you're not compatible together.
Yeah, that's true.
Or you're quitting too early and the universe is going, hey, guys, you meant to be together.
I've given it five chances.
It looks at they're bonded over the divorce, which is just so bizarre.
I've got that in common.
Yeah.
Jalo and Ben Affleck, Meg tells us, are back together again again.
Again, again.
Yeah, they've been spotted, holding hands.
She's got a lovely big smile on her face
and he is looking depressed as ever.
And I'm not, I just think it's his choice,
but it's his choice.
Maybe she's got something on him.
Yeah.
She's like, come back with me or I'll tell everyone.
So we wanted to find New Zealand's Ben and J-Lo.
We've got to add a couple of texts.
Guys, yes, I've been on and off my guy multiple times.
Each break we both grow,
work on ourselves, come back together stronger than ever.
Sometimes breaks are needed for mental health.
And then we also have Samantha.
Hey, Samantha.
Hi.
Hi.
Sam, sorry, we're kind of understand it because obviously we've been a little judgey,
being like, they're on again, they're off again, imagine being their friends,
but maybe we're missing something.
I'm in the car.
I honestly think it comes down to the law of attraction.
Like there's just something about each other that just draws you back and you just can't let go of something.
You must have some sort of world record.
How many times have you got back with the same person
and then ended it and got back with them?
We have broken up a total of eight times in our 10-year relationship.
Whoa.
What?
By the eighth time, your family are just rolling their eyes, right?
Yep.
Yeah.
Is it always around the same sort of time?
Is it like Christmas because it's stressful?
Is it like winter?
I don't know.
Because you're breaking up on average every like 14 months.
So in our first two to three years of our relationship, we broke up every three months.
Oh, my.
Your friends would have been so great.
And it says here that you've broken up eight times, as you said, in a 10-year relationship.
So that's an average of a year almost, just over a year.
That's what I did.
I did the maths a bit better.
What do you do when we're talking?
What are you doing?
I don't know.
Thinking about what I'm going to ask.
Sam, I can only put it down to this.
Are you both tens?
So obviously there's a bit of friction
and then when you see each other
you're just like, damn, I ain't doing better than that.
Is that what it is?
Yeah, basically.
Yeah.
Well, there's something, even if it's like,
I'm sure you are a 10, Samantha,
but sometimes there's like a chemical pull to somebody
and you just, it's like the pheromones.

Yeah.
You must be both tens.
Yeah.
Hi.
Hey, well, we love that you keep working at it because you've got four kids together.
Yeah.
And so I'm sure your kids really benefit from mum and dad sticking in and trying to make it work.
Yes, exactly.
Yeah, we had our first daughter really early in our relationship,
and she kind of almost was a little bit of the glue that kept us going.
Oh, that's nice.
But, yeah, we had three more children, and we're, we're.
pretty happy now.
And that's it?
We recently got married.

But it was pretty close for quick maths, if I'm being honest.
But thank you for the maths shade.
You know Megga don't like it when people poke holes in my mouth
You need to just drop it and move on
And dad, you just need to listen
She said they broke up eight times in 10 years
I did quick maths in a count of 14 months
