This is a podcast from Rover.
Welcome to the podcast that should have been cancelled before it even started.
This is Clint, Meg and Dan's OnlyFans.
Podcast that is.
Yo! Turn the sound up!
Love music!
Love music!
Yeah, that's the fun!
Look like...
Clint to the Dan and I make When it Black life! Clint to the Dan and Omeg, we're at London!
Clint to the Dan and Omeg!
Come on Ash, pull it together!
Clint to the Dan and Omeg, we're at London!
Drop the beat! This is Clint, Meg and Dan, live!
Yeah it is! Come on!
Good morning! Friday!
How bloody good.
I love that.
This week's just spun by in my opinion.
I cannot believe it's Friday.
I know.
It has disappeared before my very eyes, which means we're having fun.
We do have the best jobs in the world.
We do.
We're very, very lucky.
Well, sick into dolphin trainers I think.
No.
I always wanted to be a dolphin trainer.
Yeah, but imagine how dirty that water is that they have to train in.
It's full of dolphin wee and poo and... And the dolphins are in a pool.
Like, let them be out in the ocean. Yeah, the dolphins are hating life.
Nah, some of them. It's like, does your kid like going to a playground, Dan?
Not really, actually. Oh, okay.
Well, then he wouldn't want to be a dolphin in Sea World.
He hates playgrounds.
It's like a playground for dolphins. Yeah. Jump through the hoop and get in the fin whenever they want.
I did go to the zoo the other day though and I saw this.
They've got one seal at the Auckland Zoo and he's always happy.
Yeah he is.
He's a happy seal.
Have you ever been at the zoo when, this happened to me once and I've gone 70,000 times,
there's a bit way in near the line enclosure that you walk through like a pathway and there's a tunnel above you that the lion walks over.
It's the tigers.
Oh the tigers.
Oh the tigers.
And he walked over.
I know.
And I've never seen that before.
I was losing my mind.
I know what that is.
So much so that you forgot what animal was.
Alright mate.
I do get confused between lions and tigers.
The strike's normally because the tiger's away.
She's been 70 times in her words and she still doesn't know the difference between a tiger and a lion. I get confused between lions and tigers. And still to this day. Stripes normally because the tigers are white.
She's been 70 times in her words.
And she's still doesn't know the difference between a tiger and a lion.
She's got a three year old going lion.
And Ash is like, yeah, good boy buddy.
Good boy, stripes and everything.
She's very smart.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Oh my gosh.
We're about to jump into your 6am throwback.
It is a Friday so there's more pressure on the throwback being good. Today we think we've nailed it. Yeah well today Ash we're
all three of us big fans of Friends the TV show and Matt LeBlanc turns 57.
Crazy. I still think of him as like 30 because they will forever be their
friends characters to all of us. Yeah I had a stab at 56 and then I moved to 54.
Yeah. I was close.
He's by far not the oldest of all the Friends cast though.
If you could take a stab as to who you think is the oldest of all the Friends.
That's really hard.
Yeah.
I think I'd go Phoebe.
Phoebe?
I'm trying to think at the time, like when they were all young, who looks the oldest?
And I think it was Phoebe or David Sch young, who looks the oldest? Phoebe?
And I think it was Phoebe or David Schmuck?
Yeah Ross, Phoebe and Ross.
I think Ross would be second to Phoebs.
No, Ross is one of the younger ones.
Really?
If I'm honest, yeah.
So, yeah, the oldest two friends from what I can see here, Lisa Kudrow, so you're correct
there, but she is equal with Courtney Cox, 61 years old.
61?
I know. Oh my god.
Crazy, eh?
Who's the baby?
Jennifer Aniston, I think.
Or maybe Matthew Perry, I think.
Let me just check his age because obviously...
Jennifer Aniston has aged so well it's disgusting.
Yeah.
Because they all look great,
but Courtney can tell she's able to work,
because you know, it takes away from how young she looks.
But Jennifer Aniston. Yeah. Oh, Dan, you've got your picture... Those short, so you know, it takes away from how young she looks. But Jennifer Aniston.
Yeah.
Oh, Dan, you've got your, those short shorts
and you've gone off on a...
Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry.
I was sitting in a way where my shorts
were showing parts of my body.
It's supposed to be Pajama Day today,
so everyone at the Etch is all embracing that for a Friday.
And Dan, as you can maybe tell from the theme,
has bluey jammies.
I've got bluey jammies. Mom!
Yeah.
I got to send them a while ago.
I've never worn them.
This is the first wearing.
George would love to see you
when we're wearing those pyjamas.
Cause it's an Australian show
that's made its way around the world.
Can I just ask you quickly, Ash,
is bluey a girl?
Yeah.
Yeah, bluey's a girl.
Bluey and bingo are both girls.
It makes no sense though,
because the dad's blue and bluey's blue,
and then the mum's orange,
and then the sister's orange and then the
sisters... That's nothing to do with gender it's just like one looks like their mom and one looks
like their dad. I know but then surely as a kid you've gone okay so that's the boy dog is blue
and the mummy dog is orange and then maybe they're taking on gender norms. Yeah. How 2025. I don't
know and blue even sounds like a boy. Do you know what's because you know they've never
released the identities of the voice artists who play
Bluey and Mingo.
Never really.
They've kept them totally quiet.
Witness protection.
Yes.
And a couple of years ago, I was at a beautiful country hotel between Melbourne and Sydney
on a road trip.
And there was a little girl that Buddy was playing with, but she was older than Buddy,
obviously.
Bluey.
It was Bluey.
I can't. And I wanted to ask the mum so bad,
because the voice was like, it was exact like,
cause the giggle, you know that delicious little giggle
that's so cute.
And one of my life regrets is not saying,
miss you'll keep to the voice of Bluey.
That little kid's a cash cow, eh?
You'd hope so.
I wanna be that parent.
So yeah, just quickly, the ages of the friends class,
54 was Matthew Perry, so he was the youngest.
Then it was Jennifer Aniston, 56, David Schwimmer, 58,
and then Lisa Kudrow, Courtney Cox, 61.
Oh, they're all pretty close.
But seven years, but.
Phoebe was the worst friend.
I hate Phoebe.
Really?
That's bad.
He's a crap mate.
Unpopular opinion. He's a crap mate.
Who is your 6am throwback, Matt LeBlanc?
57 today, Joey from Friends.
Happy birthday, Matty.
Yeah, and it turns out the Rembrandts made, what did you say Dan, 5 mil?
5 million dollars for the song being in Friends.
Well actually a million dollars initially, but then over royalties over time another 4 million dollars, so 5 million.
That'd be stoker, back then where they didn't know
that Friends was gonna be a big deal. Imagine just getting a million dollars
for a band that's got no hits. Yeah and let's be honest that song
would never they would never have been a famous band if it wasn't for Friends.
And the only other song that we have in our music library is Just the Way It Is
Baby. I'll give you the hook and see if it rings a bell.
There's only two of them so that does mean more money in their pockets.
Oh good.
Only being divided two ways.
Oh well that's so bad.
You know the band Fat Freddy's Drop?
Yeah.
You probably know them.
Isn't there four thousand of them? Yeah there's like... Yeah. Yeah we do. Isn't there 4,000 of them?
Yeah, there's like, yeah.
I feel like it's a bad business decision
to have a band that's got more than like maybe four people.
I agree.
Because you're spreading the royalties.
Those poor guys are probably like...
But do you know that artists who play on tracks
don't get royalties?
Only the artists that write the music.
Yeah, right.
I guess if you're doing live shows
and like a couple of them are busy
and they're on holiday and stuff no one's gonna know if two of the eleven
members are missing. You don't want the saxophone guy to be out though.
They have quite a heavy horn section. I do like the horn section in Fat Freddy's Drop.
It's so hard to say Fat Freddy's Drop. Fat Freddy's Drop. A lot of talk online
Clint about your microphone.
Mine?
Yeah, haven't you seen it?
Oh yeah, the L and the I making a U in Clint.
Yeah, but I can't unsee it.
Yeah, I've had that all my life.
Birthday cakes are a biggie when the person that does the icing doesn't give enough gap between the L and the I.
Billboards as well.
I think we just need to get a black Sharpie and just do a little bit more of a separation between the L and the I. Billboards as well. And then we just need to get a black Sharpie and just do a little bit more of a separation
between the L and the I because I can't stop seeing it now and I have to stare at it all
morning.
That looks deliberate actually. The L and the I look closer than any of the other letters
in Clint.
But do we agree Ash that of all the people that could have that name, Clint is probably
the best one on the show for it.
Of the show I think he's the most, yeah.
Oh, producer Carl's coming.
But it's a very high bar because we're all lovely.
We could just change his name by deep hole
and then it's not a problem.
True, yes.
Jump the U in there.
I mean, every time we do a post,
like every social media post,
there's one person that'll be like,
what about Clint's mic?
Has anybody else noticed?
It's like, yes.
Everyone's noticed.
Clint's 40 years on this planet,
has anyone realised?
It is good for engagement though, I guess, on the post.
So you should leave it.
Can you stop putting your leg up
and wearing your short shorts, mate?
Or bring your chair down or something.
Ash doesn't want to know what you had for breakfast, mate.
We've had, today is pajama day here at The Edge.
Everybody's wearing pajamas.
The cow just invented.
The cow just decided it's Pajama Day.
Yeah, did he?
Is it an official thing?
I don't know.
I'd never heard about it until last night.
And so I had to dig out my bluey pajamas.
And they're quite short, I will say that.
You've got good legs.
You do have good legs.
And I'm not wearing undies underneath these.
So there is a lot of Dan to go around this morning.
Well, it's actually Australian National Pajama Day.
Ooh.
Even on those made-up days.
I know. There are celebrations for every day.
I was into pie day yesterday.
Yeah, yeah. That was delicious.
So if you're driving to work this morning, turn around,
go back home, put your pajamas on and then head to work.
Thank you, Phil.
In Australia, it's National Pajama Day,
and I choose to abide by that.
Yeah, we'll get a scandal update next.
Is it another celebrity death?
Did you see that?
Maybe that-
I saw it when I woke up.
Oh, it could be-
But why would I laugh a bit?
But it, yeah.
Oh.
I know.
Well, that means we've had two celebrity deaths
that we've broken at 6.30 this week.
I can't say we did,
we broke the news of Ozzy Osbourne's
passing 10 minutes before. Do you know who would have been pissed off? The Rock.
The Rock? Yes, producer Neebs. I checked the timing on it Dan was 15 minutes ahead of the
Rock so big one there get up. Journalism at its finest. I would say though like we can't
take all the credit on that I think somebody text them Ozzy Osbourne's dead
and we all went eh? And then we all started Googling it. So actually, someone, probably you listening this morning,
gave us the jump on everyone else here at work.
Yeah, thanks listeners.
I mean, you guys are the best journalists out there.
But don't do the thing where you like make stuff up
and then we end up.
Oh, that's such a good meme.
Where you troll us.
Have you seen that meme where like,
girls have the camera facing on their mom
and then they go, Michael Blay dead at 50!
Yes!
And their mum is like NOOOOO!
Like falls on the ground.
Michael Ball Blay?
Did I say Ball?
You've just got balls on the brain because you're showing yours around the studio this morning, Dom.
Michael Ball Blay passed away.
Yeah, my mum would Guys up for entertainment.
Clint, Megan, Dan with Ash London.
Scandal.
It's going to report to you by E! New Zealand.
If you've got a dream, E! New Zealand's got your seat.
You can apply now at dreamseats.co.nz.
Love it.
We've had some celebrity deaths this week from a bit, thankfully at least they've all
been a little bit older.
It's always very sad when someone's in their 30s or 40s or 50s, but I would say that 71
is still pretty young.
Yeah, you say it's the new 50, don't you?
Is that what you say? That's right.
Whatever it is, you take 20 years off and it's the new that thing.
So wrestling legend Hulk Hogan has died at 71 years old.
He's kind of definitely the most famous wrestler on the planet.
Maybe apart from like Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Dwayne The Rock Johnson. The Rock would be the most famous.
The Undertaker.
He was a big deal.
Undertaker's a good one.
Ultimate Warrior, we're probably moving into more of top 10.
Bret Hart.
Again, I think Sean Michaels.
Oh RIP.
Did Bret Hart die?
Yeah he jumped off.
He fell off the bungee cord.
It was one of the Hart brothers.
I know there's two Hart brothers.
Oh Owen Hart?
Yes.
Anyway, we should do our research.
Sorry, we should do our research.
Sorry, we should be talking about Hulk Hogan instead.
So it's cardiac arrest.
And do you know he only got married two years ago to a new wife?
And there was some rumours going around recently that he was in ill health or in a coma and
she said, no, he's absolutely fine.
He's doing really well.
He's strong.
But yeah, the paramedics arrived at his home and tried to revive him but were unsuccessful
and he's passed away.
Yeah, you think of these people, I guess,
Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne are similar.
You don't think of them dying because they're these, like,
larger than life characters.
They don't feel like real people almost.
They do feel like a kind of a...
Again, Dan's put the leg up with the short shorts,
pyjama shorts on today.
You can't see clearly because you've got the televisions blocking the view.
Hmm. Just as well. I've got the televisions blocking the view.
Hmm, just as well.
I've got the whitest upper leg you'll ever see,
so I'm so sorry about that.
Nothing wrong with a white upper leg.
Bit of a trip back down memory lane
for anyone like me as a kid
that had the Hulkamania workout set
when you wanted to get jacked as a kid.
Here is the-
Hey, how can I get muscles like you guys?
Wow, this is wonderful.
You can start by getting in shape
with the Hulkamania workout set.
Great.
It's got everything you need, head and wrist band,
a jump rope for warming up, a hand gripper for power,
dumbbells for strength, an exercise poster,
and even Hulk's own workout tape.
The Hulkamania workout set, you from LJN.
How old are you?
Sometimes I wonder whether you are 60.
Like that ad sounds like it's from the 1950s.
It absolutely does.
But I remember like unfolding my workouts there.
Are you serious?
Yeah, and I'd follow each one and they had those,
you know those dumb things where you just like squeeze them?
The grippers, the hand grippers.
Yeah, had those and I put the headband on,
I'd do my workout.
Wow. It didn't come with little, I'd do my workout. Wow.
It didn't come with little kiddie-roids though.
Nah.
That's just how he actually got jacked.
That didn't go well in the 80s.
How good would that be, eh?
Cause you know that whatever was in those back in the day,
they would have been regulated.
Oh God, that would have had like Ryan Osteros semen
and bloody all sorts of bizzo in there.
Yeah, horny go-weedy be the least of your worries.
Yeah, that's true.
Why else are there semen?
My goodness me.
When you were kids in Aotearoa, did you have those?
In Australia we had them and they were little pretend cigarettes
and you had them as a kid.
Yes, space mints.
We've still got them but they've taken the ends off.
They're taking the red off.
So it doesn't look like a cigarette, it just looks like a white stick.
Do you know what they were called in Australia?
Oh God.
It's really bad, they had to change it.
F-A-G-S.
Cause in Australia we would say you'd smoke a cigarette.
And they were called that.
We've still got an item.
You know, I buy coffee filters
for my coffee machine at home and they're called fags.
Oh, but that's what they do buy them.
Is it the brand? Is it the family name or is it the name of the item? It's not, it's called. Is it the brand? I buy coffee filters for my coffee machine at home and they're called fags.
Is it a family name or is it the name of the item?
It's not a brand. It's a brand name.
Yeah, yeah. Like 2G's.
I think it's from Australia as well, the brand.
Oh, gosh.
Special coffee filter. You can buy them anywhere.
We had a teacher called Mr. Fag.
And he's when he married the other teacher, she kept her name.
She stayed Mrs. Pomoroi. It's cool for you.
All right, your chance to play for $10,000 with easy money at seven o'clock and also
Truthbooth is back. In fact you may have actually caught Alex's story about his infidelity outside
of his marriage and now his secret five-year-old son that his wife doesn't know about.
Everyone's talking about it. My mate's at Pilates.
I wasn't even there, but my friend went to Pilates and said the Pilates girls were all talking about it.
Well, Pilates girls are talking about it.
Whatever you're doing today, if you've got to go away and do some stuff, come back at 8.30
because Alex joins us for an update, a fresh update at 8.30 this morning.
Clint, Miggah, Dan, let's go!
We asked you if you'd like a voucher to go spend in store at Zed.
You just have to be...
First call of the day! First call of the day!
And she liked what she heard.
She dialled 0800 The Edge and she's here. Zara from Tauranga.
Morning, Zara.
Hi, good morning.
I'm off to Znga. Morning Zara. Zara. Hi, good morning guys.
I'm off to Zara after the show today.
They've got a big sale on.
Oh, were they?
Oh, Zara.
Yeah.
You would.
You would.
You are the biggest matrosexual of all time.
I love a sale rack.
It's all the stuff that they thought they would sell
because it was cool,
but then no one bought it because it was too weird.
It was yesterday when I mentioned that the brisk goes 50% off.
You two were on your bloody phones within a millisecond.
Oh yeah, no, the haberdasheries are there.
The haberdasheries.
The place is pretty cheap.
That sounds like your own damn mind.
I guarantee neither of us said haberdasheries.
I will say, Briscoe's is never not on sale.
That is true.
They always have some sort of sale.
That Briscoe's lady.
What are you doing up so early, Zara?
What's your Friday looking like?
I have work this morning in like an hour.
What do you do for a crust Zara?
So I work as a reliever at ACS centres and I also babysit and work at the market.
So you're a goddess pretty much. You are salt of the earth.
Woman that we bow down towards
and kiss your feet for taking care of our children.
A battler. That's how you call ya.
You're amazing.
Now be honest Zara, you say you work at a daycare centre. Kids, in general, what are
your thoughts on them? Do you have... I mean obviously because you work there you do like
them but is there some that you're just like I can't deal with today I'm just voice disguising you as Zara so you can be honest
What do you reckon?
Um no I actually like all kids
I feel like this could end up weird
I just
No I like all kids
There are kids at my kids daycare that I think,
oh, I could not take care of you all day.
And it's not the kids' fault, it's the parents' fault.
It's the way they've been raised.
And once I did meet the parents, anyway.
But people that work at daycare centres,
they've sold to the earth.
You definitely have your favourites, though.
Yeah, Zahara, you would have your favourites.
Maybe.
We're in between the lines.
You're allowed to have favourites,
you're just not allowed to vocalise your least favourites.
Oh yeah.
Another bit of information we've been given about you, Zara,
is one time you locked your grandma in a bathroom
and forgot about it.
Now why did you lock her in there in the first place?
Time out.
She...
I'm sorry I should not have mentioned that.
Okay, so I was like a kid and we were in, we were getting ready to go and there was like
a bathroom that had like the toilet with the door and then the sink and stuff.
And I was in the like actual bathroom and the lock was on the outside and so I was like, haha,
that'd be so funny if I lock it for like a second.
And then like, when she opens it,
I'll open it and be like, ha ha.
And then I forgot about it.
And my granddad was like, okay, like, let's go.
Like, we gotta go.
And yeah, my granddad sat in the car
for like 10 minutes waiting for her.
Oh my god.
And they never saw her again.
Yeah.
What a story.
She made it out alive, didn't she, Zara?
And you said it's only 10 minutes, but I reckon at that age, you need all the minutes you can get. I never saw her again. She made it out alive, didn't she Zara?
And you said it's only 10 minutes,
but I reckon at that age,
you need all the minutes you can get, like that's days.
10 minutes when you're in your 80s.
Yeah.
Well, she was fine, wasn't she Zara?
Yeah, so my granddad was like getting mad
and was like, where is she?
Like what's taking so long?
So I was like, okay, I'll go have a look.
And then I realised, and I felt so bad.
And that happened like 10 years ago
and I've never forgotten.
I'd be like, Nana, you silly goose,
what have you done there to yourself?
Oh, you've blocked her, yeah.
And now Zara's looking after your kids.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She's not looking at any of them in the bathroom.
No, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no the bathroom. No, no. No need to eat any of them once. Well, if you haven't sorted out lunch,
Zed can take care of that for you, Zara.
We'll send you a voucher so you can go spend it in store
on the new Thai chicken curry pie, if you like.
Cool.
Uh...
You're very welcome.
Oh, Dan put you back on hold, so you sounded super ungrateful.
Yeah, she's like, I'm speechless.
You're probably just saying thanks to nothing while you're on hold.
Uh, OK. Naughty640 up next.
And if you missed Dan's postcode playlist
for Auckland's North Shore,
it's an earworm.
It's been stuck in my head.
I've had some feedback,
which I'll share with you shortly as well,
about the North Shore and
people from the North Shore are not happy.
Oh really? Actually, I've had two people
that live there their whole lives.
About the whole song or just a certain section?
Most of it.
Most of it.
Okay.
Most of it.
Alright, well we're gonna get to that before seven o'clock.
I thought it was one of the best things
that happened on the show yesterday.
So, here's your retreat.
And we do have kind of naughty 6.40
and I just realised no one got an update
about Dan's deposit yesterday.
Is that something you wanna talk about on there or?
There was a deposit made.
Yep.
I can inform you about how it went.
It was a textbook deposit to be honest.
Textbook!
What are you saying? Are you like well-practiced or what?
The lady was like, that is a brilliant deposit.
The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast.
Dan used today quite an interesting...
I was going to say intimate afternoon.
Oh no, nothing intimate about this Clint.
It's very scientific, straightforward.
Very much so.
And a lot of men, especially, would have done this
in their time, had to make it a positive bodily fluids.
And I'm talking the procreation type.
Okay.
And I've done it before.
Don't put the sexy music on.
There's nothing. Is it sexy?
No, there's nothing, anything sexual about this in any way.
It's science.
And so if you've done it before,
you know that you have to produce the sample
and then drop it off in a very finite time period.
And so it was about an hour between producing it
to dropping it off.
The problem was my house is about 45 minutes
from the place that you need to take it to.
And so it's, if you know Auckland,
that could go, it could be an hour and a half
driving bad traffic.
You're right, imagine doing it
and then getting stuck in traffic
and it all being for nothing.
It expires.
We talked about it yesterday of places I could go to do it
that you guys both, thank you very much,
offered your houses, because you're closer to the place.
100%.
I don't know if I did.
You did, Clint, and I was really seriously
considering your room. On your pillow. Yeah,'d be in the garage at best or the garden
shed. I'd make room for you in the garden shed. I'd pull the lawnmower out and you could stand with the lawnmower goes.
Clint's got AstroTurf as well so I'd anyway. Hose that off. It's hosable.
And they also considered my car in the car park of the place. And we all said, absolutely not.
So I decided to go home.
The problem was that my dear mother, Jules,
she was looking after my son, George, at home.
So I had to spin a yarn about how I was really tired yesterday.
And so I went down to the bedroom and pretended to plant a stomp.
Stop, stop.
That is the audio of Dan's neighbor. Oh, yeah, ergo mate. We think on the ergo, row, stop. That is the audio of Dan's neighbor.
Oh yeah, okay mate.
We think of the ergo, rowing machine.
Yes.
That is inappropriate.
Stop playing music, stuff.
It doesn't need any adding to it, okay?
So I went home, I did the deed.
So you said you were tired, went to your bedroom,
then came out and said, oh, I'm not feeling tired at all.
Yeah, I was like, that was a quick 30 seconds.
I was in there for about 10 minutes.
Okay, then I came out.
She said, that was a quickie feeling, all right.
And I was like, yeah, I just remembered
I've got to shoot off to go and pick something up.
I was dropping something off.
And so I drove, it was the most stressful 40 minutes
of my life driving there to get there.
Did you put the seatbelt around the container?
I almost did, because it comes in like,
you put it into like one of a bit of a Tupperware container
and then it goes into like a paper bag.
And so I put that next to me and I was like watching it
because you don't want it to spill in the car.
You'd hate that Tupperware to get confused
with something else.
With your lunch.
Like your wife's like, oh, there's, you know,
the icing for the cake for Georgia's birthday cake.
Did you take the yogurt for Georgia?
Yep, no, so I got it there in time,
went in there, handed it over. They're very professional there. I? Yep. No, so we got it there in time, went in there,
handed it over.
They're very professional there.
I always think, God, they're gonna look at it
and then look at you weird.
It happens all the time.
It's all day, all day, all night.
That's what they're dealing with.
So yeah, it's there.
It's being tested.
Well done.
So we find out the results.
No, we don't have to know the results.
That's not our business.
We'll find out Monday.
How many swimmers?
Hey, that'd be good if you could guess.
Whoever's closest.
You know, when's the sweet steaks?
We guess you had to guess the date,
weight and sex of Meg's baby.
Now you gotta guess how many swimmers dance rockin'.
With swimmers, you know how like a girl is born
with all of the eggs she'll ever have?
Yes.
You keep producing more semen, don't you?
I think so.
That's like, yeah, it's just constantly reproducing.
That blew my mind when I think so that's like yeah it's just constantly reproducing. That blew my mind when I've only found that out like last year that
a girl is born with all the eggs she'll ever have. Isn't that incredible?
Human body is amazing isn't it? I don't believe, I no longer believe in God right
but then I'd hear stuff like that and I'm like, surely, surely that's
that can't be accidental. That's crazy man. It's crazy. All right well, Michael has just texted, I just tuned in, what the hell?
Oh it doesn't matter Michaela. Dan dropped off a sperm sample so we'll wait on the
results. I think that's probably the last we'll hear of's get back in. Let's get back into the music.
I'm a wanker.
I'm a wanker.
Oh, sorry.
Oh, guys, producers have stitched me up there.
That's insane.
You can't just autopilot and just play whatever's there.
I know it's called Naughty640, but come on.
Yeah, that's really bad.
We love you, Dan.
Good on you, mate.
Yeah.
Clint, Megan, Dan.

Hey Kate. Good morning guys. Hi. So it says here you'd spend the 10k to go to Vancouver
and watch some IVE ice. I've ice. No, ice hockey.
Oh, ice hockey.
As we turn to the producers?
Yeah.
What's an ice hockey in Vancouver? That's so specific. I love that.
I'm a bit of a fan. And so, yeah, that would be my thing. I'd love to do that.
It's just most people go, oh, I don't know, pay some bills, maybe go on holiday.
You've already, you've locked it in.
Yeah, she was.
OK, you're manifesting it.
Yes. Yeah, I absolutely want to do that.
I want to be there for like opening night, October this year.
You want to be against the glass when the boys be fun.
You go and get yourself like a jersey that's four times too big for you.
Yes. Let's get you there.
OK. Come on, babe. Come on, Kate.
All right, my sweet darling, your letter today is G.
Your time will start after I finish the first question.
Are you ready to go, Kate?
Ready.
Beginning with G, what is the opposite of stop?
Go.
A name.
Greek.
A movie. Gone Girl. Describing word. Greek. A movie. Gone Girl.
Describing word.
Going.
An emotion.
Pass.
A supermarket item.
Grape.
A place in NZ.
Gour.
A band.
Pass.
A clothing item.
Time.
Oh my God, you started so well.
You got through eight questions,
but you passed on two of them.
An emotion could have been guilt, glee, grief, grumpy,
a band, Green Day, Guns N' Roses,
Goo Goo Dolls, Gorillaz.
And then your last two questions were gonna be a clothing item.
Oh my goodness me.
And then something round.
I stood up at the start there Kate, I was like oh my god she's got this.
Oh and then you started sitting down halfway through her round you sad guy.
Yeah I always sit down when I know it's not gonna happen.
Oh thanks.
Best of luck getting to Vancouver and ticking off the dream.
Cool.
Yeah, thanks guys.
Easy babe, back again at 8 o'clock, your chance to play for 10k thanks to BNZ.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Here we go, best parts of the week for your Friday.
Good evening and welcome to another Producer Diary.
It's been another week of oversharing and people casually admitting to committing emotional
crimes on national radio.
We've opened the Truth booth, Meg's had her second baby Miller Lake mantle,
and to hit the spot that reflected the awkwardness
of that CEO being caught out for cheating
at the Coldplay concert.
Brace yourself, let's get into it.
The Truth Booth has brought more scandal to my life
than that time my auntie and uncle
had an out loud argument at family dinner.
Does anyone reckon they've got a truth bomb bigger
than these?
As a stripper, what did you do 12 times
that nobody knows about that would ruin lives if they found out I got paid to have sex
with the bride to be on their hands party
So I had a boyfriend that I'd been with for two years and after we broke up
I fell in love with someone very quickly. The person was my
Ex-boyfriend's father around three years ago, I had a grandparent that passed away.
And from that, I inherited $135,000.
And I'm hiding it from my husband
in a secret account for just my self-money.
Roughly six years ago, I went on a work trip overseas
for six months.
And I ended up having an extramural affair
and found out roughly five years ago that we ended up having a kid together.
So I've had a child with another woman.
I like it.
Ever again.
Ever again.
Oh whoops, my bad, I got that bad in I like it. Ever again. Ever again. Ever again. Oh, whoops, my bad.
I got that bit in the wrong segment.
Okay, here we go.
Probably some of the most exciting news
we've ever had on the show.
Our wonderful Meg Mantle has had her second baby,
Miller Lake Mantle.
I had my second daughter.
No!
No!
You're a girl!
You're a girl!
You're a big girl!
Order!
Oh, yes!
Her name is Milla Lake Mansel.
We used to go by Milla or Millie.
We're just over the moon.
We are so happy for you Mansel Fano.
Guy, Daisy, Meg, we are over the moon.
And we can't wait to meet little baby Milla.
Now earlier in the week,
Clint said this.
Why couldn't I be more like Dan?
And being the great friend I am, I just wanted to check that you still stand by your comments.
Clint, I'm gonna play you a clip
and you tell me if you stand by it or not.
Are they still intimate?
Does the Pope shit in the woods?
No, you've got the sakes confused.
Oh, the bear shit in the woods, sorry.
The Pope's a Catholic.
Over to you, Clint.
Oh yeah, that's not too bad.
All right, fair enough.
Let's lift the level a wee bit.
Yes, I would. Honestly, I remember level a wee bit. Yeah, so what?
Honestly, I remember the ride, remember your ring.
Yeah.
And I enjoy everything.
Stop speaking Dan.
Stop talking about your ring.
Jesus.
Still reckon you need to be a bit more like Dan?
To be honest, I think he's done worse.
Righto, then let's put the icing on the cake. V-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v- Wrangler. Don't say that. Wrangler.
You're a good small cat.
And now just go, just go.
No, don't do that.
Just ignore him.
Just get it out.
After me, okay?
There she goes.
Okay, yeah, that's the one. I take it back now.
Yeah, you did right, bro.
This show's gone to the dogs.
Oh!
Oh!
Whoa!
I said it last week and I'll say it again,
I will never get over these awesome reactions
of you winning Dream Seats, all thanks to Air New Zealand.
You're going to Canada, babe.
Oh my god, oh my god.
Charlotte, the Dream Seats yours.
Thank you so much.
Congratulations, Nicola, you're off to Aussie. Oh my god, Charlotte, the dream sets yours. Thank you so much. Congratulations, Nicola, you're off to Aussie.
Oh my god, thank you so much.
You're gonna skate with Tony Hawk.
Oh my god, guys, I can't believe it.
Now unless you've been living under a rock,
you would have heard about the CEO
that got caught cheating at a Coldplay concert.
Dan decided to capitalize on someone else's embarrassment.
Now who do you think's more embarrassed?
Chris Martin, the CEO, the HR lady, or Dan after this?
In the night, the stormy night away she'd fly
And dream of Paris
Oh no, you're nearly, you warned me
I wanna disappear like the CEO from this video
Luckily, Dan hit a stroke of redemption when he linked up with the Borderline boys
to make a postcode playlist banger for the North Shore.
North Shore
It's the Northland, but it's North
Alrighty, we'll wrap it up there.
That was another Producer Diaries.
Hope you have a fantastic weekend and we'll catch you same time, same place next week.
Thank you, Producer Nibs.
Clint, Megan, Dan.
Scandal. The scandal.
Quite a scandal.
Scandal with Ash London.
All thanks to E! New Zealand.
They have, if you've got a dream, they've got your seat.
You can apply now at dreamseats.co.nz
and we'll give away another one before 8.30 this morning.
An hour ago, at Teddy's Photos on Instagram, which is Ed Sheeran's Insta account, uploaded
a beautiful video of him in the studio singing in Punjabi and he talks about going over to
India with his dad.
He said it was a 24-hour trip and felt like a pilgrimage of music.
After five and a half hour drive when we landed, we arrived.
Aditya, who's the Indian singer that features on Sapphire, took us on a boat to see the
sights. We talked, ate, drank coffee and then once we were in the studio he taught
me how to sing in Punjabi and a bit of sitar. Then they went on a late night
scooter ride, they watched morning prayer, went back to the airport and one of the
things I love at the end of this post, Ed says, I love this version of the song. It's the one I listen to every morning with my daughters because
I love Arjit's voice, tone, flow and rhythm. Wow. So special. So we kind of knew this was happening
because early in the week in our interview with Ed Sheeran, I was frothing over Sapphire because
we all are so obsessed with this song. And Ed had this to say. I've got a full version with the Arogyx singing coming this Friday which is I think my favourite
version of the song is just like very very joyful and fun but yeah I think every step of the way
that song has been joy. We joked about the fact that maybe Ed Sheeran's sitting there and he's
not with someone going how do I make the biggest song in the world? And they're like, mate, the only way you can do that is if you learn Punjabi, mate.
And he's going,
I'm going.
Can do.
I can do that.
I can do that.
We've got to play the full version.
We've got to play the new full version.
It's New Music Friday, it's Ed Sheeran.
He's learned Punjabi. We've gotta play the full version. We've gotta play the new full version. It's New Music Friday, it's Ed Sheeran.
He's learned Punjabi.
Come on, it's the least we could do.
It's loaded into the system, and we should play it soon.
Okay, we'll take a quick break.
We're back in three minutes, and then we will debut
the brand new, but very familiar song, Sapphire,
with Ed Sheeran's Punjabi verses.
Amazing, I love it so much. Yeah, okay, three minutes is all you gotta wait,
and then we'll have it up for ya.
The Edge producers running around frantically
trying to load it in.
Clip, me and Dan.
The question we were asking is what did you hear
on the baby monitor?
And I bring this up because,
and this happened a little while ago,
but I've never actually told you guys about it,
and it's such a great content,
and I know you will appreciate it so much.
So we don't have a baby monitor anymore.
I thought we had it too long with Buddy.
I was a bit paranoid.
I think we'll keep it to hours till he's like 18.
Yeah.
Well I did move into the cockpit.
It's so creepy when you're a 16 year old son hanging out in this room.
I'm like, think before you speak.
George is like, Dad, please man, I need some privacy.
Come on, mate.
That's your mother.
Yeah.
She wants to make sure you're safe.
So we moved it, because I was worried about radiation
because I'm a psycho, we moved it to the corner of the room.
So it's like a full view of Buddy's whole bedroom.
And I never turned it off in the daytime.
So it was just always running.
And I was thankful on this particular day
because me and Buddy just playing in the room
and he picks up a ukulele.
And he's very musical like me, he loves music
and he picks up the ukulele and he decides,
and I guess he was not quite two at this point.
So maybe close to Georgie's age.
And he decided to just have a little performance for us.
for us. That's why I was late to work today because I was doing a poo finally. Yeah she actually was. She was like guys I'm gonna be late. Five day back up.
I love to be like I'm gonna be late and I was like Jesus that's such a guy text.
I thought we were okay at that point such a guy text from you Ash.
But I thought we were okay at that point.
Like we're cool enough to just be like,
yeah, now we are.
I just didn't expect that a woman could be late for work
because she had to do an unexpected visit to the toilet.
I just thought it was getting cramped.
Anyway, we're getting sidetracked.
We're not here to talk about my purple tech.
We're not here to talk about my purple tech.
So I had that audio and I showed it to a mate of mine, Nick, who is a bit of a musician,
not knowing that he was going to do anything with it. I just played it out and you know,
a bit of fun. And he's like, oh, could you email that to me? I'd love to show that to
my wife. Like he's got twins and that's really, she'd really like that. And then the next
day he played, he presented this to me and it was one of the greatest moments. And I
know you guys will appreciate this.
So I present to you the song Daddy's Doing a Poo.
The remix.
The remix.
This buddy Brian.
That's right.
New cash and yoko.
2023!
Who, who, who is doing it do, do? Is, is, is. 2023. It's a dad joke. Mommy, you're a dad joke. He thought that fire was going to him. Mommy, daddy, you're a dad joke.
Mommy, daddy, you're a dad joke.
Daddy, you're a dad joke.
Mommy, you're a dad joke.
Mommy, daddy, you're a dad joke.
Mommy, daddy, you poo. Mommy, daddy on your poo.
Oh my god.
Everyone needs a friend like that.
Right?
Incredible.
If you want to listen to it on Spotify,
just search Daddy's Doing a Poo by Buddy Brime.
It's like the B side of Baby Shark.
That's right.
I wish.
I'll get those streaming money, please.
Yeah. Wow. Has Buddy heard it, your little guy?
It's Buddy's favourite song. We play it every day in the car.
All his cousins play it.
So it should be his favourite.
Easy Money, all thanks to BNZ. Whether you're flatting, saving to travel, or making a career move,
BNZ believes there's an art to starting something new.
You can definitely do that with 10 grand, 30 seconds.
The letter is F.
If you can give Ash 10 answers,
starting with F without repeating any answers,
the cash is yours.
The lucky person playing this morning is Sarah.
Good morning.
Good morning. Now Sarah
because I want you to win there was a really hard question in here and I've
crossed it out and I thought of a much easier one to put in because I like you
Sarah. She's gone rogue. Oh thank you so much. I don't know what else we can do
we've given you the letter early, we've changed some of the questions, we want you
to win, we want you to leave $10,000. Rachel, Sarah, I have the celebration music ready to go.
Although we'll be awkward if she wins
because we're all in our pajamas
and that footage is gonna go viral.
All of us be like, oh no, I can't do that!
And everyone's gonna be like,
why the F are they in their pajamas?
It's weird.
Why has the guy got bluey pajamas on at work?
Okay, bluey is cool.
And I'm not saying he isn't cool.
I'm just pointing out that it is strange
that adult man is wearing bluey pajamasjamas to work on a Friday.
Why do they make an adult size?
Anyway, there's so many questions.
Let's do this, Sarah.
We're getting distracted, Sarah.
Alright, Sarah, your time will start at the end of Ash asking you your first question.
The letter again is F. You good to go?
Okay, I'm good to go.
Thank you.
And if you do win, can you give us a nice big react?
Don't be like, oh thank you.
Oh my god, I'm going to pull my friggin' eyes out.
Do that, do that Sarah.
Okay. Okay.
Your letter is F.

Can I ask you the final question
to see whether you would have gotten it?
Yeah, you just got nine out of nine, but you needed 10.
Oh, the family guy, oh shit.
No, you got family guy.
She already used that on cartoon
and the last one was a movie.
So you had to give me a movie.
That's just serious.
Yeah, she okay.
Oh my goodness me. That's the period. Yes, okay. Oh my goodness me.
That was so close.
Oh shit.
That was a bloody, bloody good effort there.
Better than we've had in a long time, Sarah.
Oh well done, Sarah.
Would it be almost better for you
if you'd just really failed
because then you went so close?
Yeah, she even got a dog breed.
Like we didn't think she'd get that.
I thought that was the one she tripped up on.
Play again.
Oh babe. Oh god. You've up on. Play again. Oh, babe.
Oh, god.
You've got the talent.
I can't call you anyway.
Yeah.
Do you wanna, yeah, I feel like it's a bloody good effort.
You hold the other one, I'm gonna sort you out something.
Thanks to our show sponsor, Zed.
Man.
Oh my god.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
It's doable, guys, it's so doable.
Yeah.
You just don't pass, just calm, give an answer, move on.
Oh well.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Been about to jump into another game of Who Dears Dan.
Well, not exactly, I'm gonna stop you there Clint,
because we've changed up the intro a little bit
for this morning, Ash.
Why would we do that, Dan, why?
Why would we do the Who Dears Dan intro?
Just press that button in front of you, Clint.
Who Dears Dan, who de you, Clint. Oh, there's Clint! There's Clint!
There's Clint!
There's Clint!
There's Clint!
There's Clint!
There's Clint!
Oh, hang on, it's Clint this time, eh?
Mm-hmm.
Okay, here we go.
Ahem.
Clint!
Oh, there's Clint!
Oh, there's Clint!
Oh, there's Clint!
Oh, there's Clint!
Oh, there's Clint!
Oh, there's Clint!
Oh, there's Clint!
Oh, there's Clint!
Oh, there's Clint! Oh, there's Clint! Oh, there's Clint! Oh, there's Clint! Oh, there's Clint! Who dares to glance? Damn, I didn't know Carl could get up that high. That's very impressive vocals from you, Mr Magoo.
Your boy can hold a note.
What range.
Wait, I'm getting distracted by his vocal and maybe I should be focusing more on what the heck is going on.
Yeah, we've been doing Hoodies Dan for a few months now, Ash, and I'm sick of it. I'm done.
Fair enough, because there comes a point where you give, and you give, and you give.
When do you get to take?
Yeah, I'd love to take once in a while.
You know?
Save that for next week's Producers' Diary.
Got it.
And it's my first foray into Thanksgiving.
So anyway, I have been working away behind the scenes
because I've been doing it for, yeah, as I say, three months. I've, I mean, jumped into water fully clothed into a fountain.
Oh, that was in the middle of town, like, in the morning, for no reason.
Do you mind yourself if I submerge myself in your fountain?
Go for it.
OK, here we go. Count me down.
Three, two, one.
Oh, God!
Disgusting. I'm even rolling around in it!
That's E. coli.
It just screams E. coli to me.
Yeah, there was duck poo everywhere in it as well.
You guys dared me for whatever reason to pour a can of baked beans down my undies inside
a packed bus stop full of people.
Imagine you're just waiting for your bus and some dude does that.
It's quite a place.
Three, two, one. Ready? Straight, oh my god, straight down, oh my god, okay I'm
just gonna do a little bit of a jiggle. Sound like you live out of them honestly. I didn't.
It was the weirdest feeling. Were they cold or warm? Cold. Like out of the can. They weren't cooked baked beans.
That might have been nice, just warm and comforting. I've climbed the sky tower, I've done a whole load of other stuff. I like when you just did a random sing-o-gram that nobody asked for.
I think they just went door knocking, are you a mum?
They're like yep, this is from your daughter.
That's funny.
It was so embarrassing.
Beautiful vocals though, can I say?
Oh Celine's my queen.
So we've been talking about this for a while now,
and I think it's a really good song. That's funny. It was so embarrassing. Beautiful vocals though, can I say?
No, Celine's my queen.
Yeah, she is.
So, we've been working a little bit behind the scenes, haven't we Ash?
And we've come up with the perfect Who Dears Clint.
Yes.
Now it involves your gorgeous mother, Christine.
Yeah.
Fano is very important to our boy Clint.
And I think if anything,
if there's anything that we wanna mess with,
it's gonna really mean a lot to him
or be uncomfortable for him as his fam.
What's the one thing that your mum hates?
Tattoos on her boys.
That's right.
Got it in one, got it in one.
And I think previously, before I was even on the show,
Clint got a tattoo, a whole sleeve tattoo,
and it almost broke up Clint and his mother's relationship.
We had, we genuinely,
cause mum was not happy,
we had to at one point sit down and I had to say,
mum, like I thought she was joking.
And I was like, I am the same son you have always had.
Oh my gosh.
And you, and I will continue to have the relationship
with you I've always had.
If it changes, it's because you let it change because it's just a tattoo.
But that's now up to you.
And we had to have a proper like serious convo about the sleep tattoo.
Mums and tattoos, it's like, I don't know what it is.
My mum is exactly the same.
They nearly ruined our relationship forever when I got one.
They just can't.
It's just like, I envisioned my child one way and you are pure.
And it's like we're telling them that they have like done a bad job.
Yeah.
And Clint's mum has been away in Europe over the last few weeks.
She hasn't been privy to the conversations we've been having about Clint possibly getting another tattoo.
Now my wife is also being like you've got enough, you're done.
But she now wants to get like her teeth done.
Not wants to. She's already forked out the money
without telling you to get her teeth done.
I found like a very large sum of money
that had come out of our credit card going,
what is this?
And I found that she'd already paid the deposit
like it's happening.
So she was in trouble and as a make good said,
I'll let you get another tattoo.
Yeah, cancels it out.
So even though you're like, oh, he's a bit of a mum's boy,
he's not getting tattoos because of his mum.
No, it's actually because my wife was against it.
I'll wear the heat that comes from mum when it happens.
Okay, so what are you gonna do next?
Heat's coming, baby.
As you're gonna call your beautiful mum, Christine,
and break the news to her about the second tattoo.
Yeah.
She might like tigers.
I want a tiger.
She won't, as a mother, she won't like it.
She'll probably like tigers, but she doesn't like them in't, as a mother, she won't like it.
She probably likes tigers but she doesn't like them in tattoo form on her son's arm.
Yeah.
So we're going to do that next.
Before that though, we've got a bit of a switch-through.
Usually we do Hootie as Dan this time on a Friday.
But we've changed it up a little bit this time.
Oh hang on, it's Clint this time, eh?
Okay, here we go.
Ahem.
Clint!
Who dares Clint?
Shout out to the producers for that awesome intro.
Outstanding. Clint's mum, Christine, hates tattoos.
Like all mums, like most mums. I would say 95% of mums.
I should say I don't mind tattoos, I just don't want them on my boys.
You've already got one sleeve and you're already...
Have you booked it in yet? The second side?
Yeah, I've been chatting with Coen, he said he's got October 16th or 24th available.
There we go, and the money's set aside.
It's happening.
And just to remind everyone at home
how it went the first time you got a tattoo.
Poorly, very poorly.
It started actually changing the relationship
between me and my mum, but we've since sorted it out
and we just don't talk about it.
There's no chat about it anymore.
Do you ever cover them up around her?
I used to, but now it's just like, ah, that's what it is.
You can have her grandchildren. I feel like as soon as you give them grandchildren they need to just shut up.
I don't know, Christine can get pretty angry.
She's a feisty gal.
And they've been away in Europe over the last few weeks haven't they?
So she's going to be none the wiser. You call her and admit what you're thinking about doing.
Okay.
Good luck, Clint.
Hopefully she doesn't pick up.
That would be annoying.
Hello, good morning.
Hey, Mum, how you doing?
You're in good mood.
Yeah, I'm out walking with your dad.
Have you dragged him along?
Yep, he's got a little bit of weight to lose.
Along with your mother. Yeah, too he's got a little bit of weight to lose. Along with your mother.
Yeah, too much drinking.
You're around at our place for our family dinner tonight, eh?
Yeah.
Can't wait, it's going to be fun, haven't seen you in ages.
No, you haven't.
Lots been happening while you've been away.
Yeah, what's been happening?
Did you hear Jamie's getting her teeth fixed?
Teeth fixed? What's the matter with them? I know hear Jamie's getting her teeth fixed? Teeth fixed?
What's the matter with them?
I know, that's what I said.
She's got like a little snaggle tooth or whatever
that sits a little further forward
and she wants to get like Invisalign or whatever,
put them back in place.
I tell you what, they're not gonna be cheap.
Oh no, I know why,
because I've already seen the bill for Jamie's
and I said to her, there's no way babe,
we can't do that, we can't do that.
And then she wanted to get it done so badly.
She said that I could do something
that I've been wanting to do for a long time.
No, no, no, no.
That she said I could never do again after the first time.
No, no.
That's terrible.
You don't even know what it is yet?
Yeah, it's a tattoo.
Oh, okay, you do know what it is.
Yeah, I'm not stupid.
Yeah, so I've been wanting to get like a tiger on the back of my left arm for some time.
Oh my god. What the hell for?
I don't know. What's the meaning behind it?
Doesn't it have to have meaning Dan?
This is like a...
I'd argue if it's a permanent thing you should have some meaning Ash do you think?
Yeah.
Like tiger mama?
Mmm yeah.
Oh.
Hey Ash.
Hi Dan.
I've heard so much about you.
Can't wait to meet you.
And you know what? When I got my tattoo,
my mum didn't speak to me for like two weeks.
So I'm with you, babe.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, I might have to take him out of the will.
Oh, shiver, that's serious.
That's an expensive tattoo.
Meg and Dan said, could they be put in and see the clint?
So we might have to consider that.
We'd love that Christine,
and Megan and I would happily share that,
Clint's an irritant.
Christine, what would make you angrier
if Clint already had the tattoo
and was just telling you now,
or if he told you about it before he got it,
and you said no and he still got it?
Good question, yeah.
Oh, I think I'd be angrier that he's had it done.
Okay.
Well, that's great news because I have a mum,
but despite your reservations, I'm still going to.
It's the lesser of them.
Oh, why do you have to do that?
So she wants this toast box,
so she's gonna let you have the tattoo.
She's got to be desperate.
She's got to be desperate? You guys have just had a big holiday.
Where did you go? I forget.
We did an 18 day cruise around the Baltic.
So Norway, Denmark, and then we had Poland.
We had three weeks in Vancouver.
And I've heard you two are still very much into each other.
So did you have some nice cross continental love making?
How was it?
It was great.
Yes.
God, I love it.
I've got a smile on my face.
I'm surprised John didn't lose weight.
OK.
All right.
Thanks, guys.
I'll see you in my place later on today for family dinner.
Yeah, we're coming half past two I think.
Oh Jesus, just family lunch?
That's afternoon tea.
Hi.
Oh, that's classic Harry.
Alright, I'll make sure I've got the rosé cold for your mum.
Nice to talk to you guys.
Look forward to seeing you Clinton.
Yeah, and I look forward to seeing you dad.
I reckon Clint, she was being nice on the radio because she knew she was on.
I reckon he's going to get a clip around the air tonight.
Yeah, absolutely.
100%.
Clint, Meg and Dan.
Oh my gosh.
Getting ahead of myself with the Truth Booth, Alex will be joining us on the show in about
10 minutes with an update on the fallout over the last 24 hours.
But first, great news, we could be sending you
anywhere in the world thanks to New Zealand's Dream Sea.
You just have to sell us your ambitious dream.
Tell us how you've been grinding away,
working towards making it a reality,
and if we can get you there, we will.
We've had everyone from vets and marine biologists
to skaters and marathon runners
who have to learn to walk after accidents.
That's right.
So inspiring. You guys are a bunch of legends.
Yeah, and sometimes the only thing stopping you is the travel right,
getting the money together to go overseas to achieve your dreams.
Also, once you've got the ticket booked, it really does give you like a deadline to the dream and the goal, right?
Totally, yeah.
Okay, Cameron joins us on the line. Morning, Cameron.
Morning guys, how are we?
Good.
What's your dream and why do you want the dream seat?
I'd like to take my wife and my daughter over to Brisbane
to go to the Australia Zoo, of Steve Irwin's zoo.
Oh yeah.
What's the tie in for you?
I've been a fan of him since I was little.
I'd watch the show on Animal Planet like after school
and yeah just just want to say what like Robert, Terry and Bindi have been doing over there and
just yeah big fans. Fair enough. It's so unfair that Steve died. All the a-holes in the world
that are still alive and we lose Steve. I say this, he must be so so proud of Robert. Oh my gosh. Like that boy.
Is he too famous to work there now? No. Is he still working at the own zoo?
They own it. I don't know if they own it. But are they there Monday to Friday?
Do the Irwins own Australia's Zoo? They definitely like, they- Yes, it's owned by, she owns it, Terri.
Terri owns it.
What?
So like they kind of, they're the caretakers of it,
obviously, but-
It's a family business.
It's a family business.
I don't think you'll ever leave.
No, I don't think so, especially because,
anyway, we're getting very distracted here.
Yeah, sorry.
Back to the dream.
We're like, we've got the same dream as Cameron now.
Okay, next cab off the rig is Kate.
Why do you want the dream seat Kate?
Good morning guys. My dream is to take matriarch media to the world starting with New York.
So we started our business from my living room in Raglan. This opened our first content
studio in Hamilton and we're on a mission to put New Zealand businesses on the map through digital strategy.
But we're not just building a business, we prioritise employing and upskilling women
who are returning to work after maternity leave.
Oh my goodness me.
So with the USD behind us, we could amplify that impact across Aotearoa because our long-term
vision is to create purpose-built rural content studios with free crates attached.
So, in elsewhere, Childs, Fairs, Deaths or His Massive One-Blast
then these spaces would allow parents to work creatively on their own.
There's not enough chef's kisses that I'm able to physically do
with my fingers and my mouth.
Yeah. I mean, we would go to a third caller,
but I feel like, Kate, you would smash it out of the park.
She's already made up her mind.
She's got the business plan down, Pat,
and the fact that she's prioritising getting women
back to work after having a baby with flexible options.
This is what we need for women to win
and for Kiwi women to move forward.
Obviously, I wanna join Matriarch Media.
I'm on board, baby.
Kate, it's going to New York!
Come on!
You're going, babe.
Oh my God. Yeah. I's going to New York! Come on! You're going babe.
Oh my god!
Right, you do whatever else you need to do because you're going to New York and your
dream is going to become a reality thanks to NZ's Dream Seat, babe.
Oh my god, I think I'm going to cry.
Thank you so much guys, I promise I won't let you down and I will make the most of this
opportunity.
Good on you, Tare. Actually, while you're there, you might bump into our caller from yesterday,
done skating with Tony Hawk.
If you do, you guys should all get a photo together.
Hell yeah.
She could be your first client.
Yes, Tony Hawk can be the client.
Yes, great.
He could be the face of matriarch media.
Oh no, he's a boy though.
We need a woman.
Anyway, that's up to her.
Congrats, Kate.
You have a bloody good Friday.
Enjoy your weekend.
Thank you so much, guys.
Welcome. A free trip to New York.
Oh my God.
Mums are the best.
You've got a dream.
And New Zealand's got your seat.
You can apply now at dreamsseats.co.nz.
Why not?
Then it's a winner.
If you missed it yesterday on the show, Alex joined us in the truth booth Why not? The end is the end of.
If you missed it yesterday on the show, Alex joined us in the truth booth and dropped this bomb. Roughly six years ago I went on a work trip overseas for six months and I ended up having an extramural affair.
And found out roughly five years ago that we ended up having a kid together.
It's here, it's been 24 hours and he's back.
The Truth Booth with Clint, Megan, Dan and Ash London.
Alex, he's back.
Alex, my man, it's been 24 hours since this all kind of went live on the radio.
Our first question for you is, how are you feeling?
I mean, I'm feeling a bit better considering.
A lot was said, a lot of opinion from listeners and us,
but I think, bottom line, I think we feel like
we've kind of got a little bit of something going on
between you and us at the moment.
Like we feel a little bit of responsibility now
that we're now a part of it.
And we want to be supportive as well,
because you brought it to us when you didn't have to.
Yeah, yeah.
But did you feel also that there were quite a few people
who got in touch with a lot of empathy for you?
Did you kind of feel that?
Yeah, I mean, absolutely.
I mean, to be quite honest,
everybody had valid concerns, criticisms or
just you know however they want to speak their mind. Alex, something that did come through
quite a lot were people saying that they really think you need a proper DNA test to be 100%
sure. Are you already 100% sure or is this something that you're like, yeah, I do need
to do that?
I mean, I thought about that initially as well. I mean, even years ago, I just figured
that birthmark was so like, like, you know, you can't really repeat that. But I mean,
I guess maybe you can, who knows?
And you want to at the end of the day, you want it to be your child, like this is a child
that you love that you want to do best by.
So I get that a lot of people might think,
oh, that would be a relief,
but I can imagine it would not feel like a relief.
I think either way you look at it,
it's kind of gonna be disappointing for me,
whether it's mine or not.
Have you made any decisions
to maybe come clean at some point?
Oh, without a doubt.
It pushed me in a direction
that I was already going.
You know what, let's just get the ball rolling on this
because one of the callers said something
which was really pretty important to me
was the stress involved.
Yeah, Matt, I think that was.
The mental health around that, both mental health,
physical health, all that type of stuff.
Without a doubt, it's been impacted so much.
It was stressing me out yesterday thinking about it.
I was like, it wasn't even my life.
And we don't deserve an update.
You don't owe us or have to give us anything.
But I feel like if you're open to it,
when the dust settles and the secret does come out,
love to, if you are open to getting on here with us again
and letting us know.
Just let us know that you're okay.
What happened.
That's I think what we're really good,
like, cause even though you've made some mistakes
and everybody makes mistakes in their life.
You know, you ever wanna put a bow on it
and let us know sort of what happened.
Our lines are open for you.
Yeah.
No, no, absolutely.
And I appreciate it. And I will, without a doubt, because you guys did give me the platform to kind of vent and let out my...
Get this off my shoulders to an extent. I think it's only fair to let you know what happens going forward.
And I'm not a counsellor, but I would think talking to one would be great because I imagine the time and the place
in which you bring this secret to light
is probably super important to how it is received.
And if we were all defined by the worst thing we ever did,
that would be a very unkind world.
So this doesn't have to define you.
And honestly, you sound like,
like all things considered,
you actually sound like a good man
who wants to do right by the people that you love. You sound like, like all things considered, you actually sound like a good man
who wants to do right by the people that you love.
And I think your intention is coming from a really pure
and beautiful place.
So look, we're all wishing the best for you
and your beautiful family.
We want you guys to win and we're cheering you on, mate.
Yeah, absolutely.
I really appreciate it.
Like they say, comfortability is fun,
but nothing grows there.
Yeah, it's true.
And nothing grows in darkness and in secrets and in stress.
Yeah, cheers, man. Best of luck.
Yeah, no worries. Cheers.
Interesting text that didn't feel like I should just read
right there and then in front of Alex
as we were wrapping it up being like,
is this the first and only time he was unfaithful
during his 10 years of marriage?
Because what are the chances you get a girl pregnant the first time you step outside of your marriage? I just hope for the sake of his wife
and his kids that he comes clean soon. Yeah. Yep. Well he sees his gonu. He sees his gonu, he sees he'll
give us the update. We will see. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast.
New music, Friday. Brand new.
What you got Ash? Friday for a music lover like me is like Christmas once a week.
So I'm going to kick it off with an Australian artist who used to just be like a hood rat
in Redfern which is like a rough area in urban Sydney.
The Kid Leroy now one of the biggest rappers on the planet.
He's dropped a new one.
I understand this it's called hot girl problems
Do you know who he's dating? No. Tate McCray. Really?
Oh yeah.
They're a couple.
Good on him.
And he's a beautiful boy.
I interviewed him over the years, every year,
and I expect, oh, this'll be the year that the fame
and the money's gone to his head.
He's just a sweetheart.
Is he still best mates with Justin?
I don't know if they're besties,
but I'm sure they hang out still.
Yeah, I always see them on like,
on his Instagram together, hanging out.
That song's day so good, eh?
Yeah.
So good.
One of my favourite artists on the planet is
Luke Combs. He really opened up my soul to country music. Me and my husband and my boy,
not that anyone cares, we have a lot of fun at dance parties to be the Combsy.
He's got a new one. How's this for a country music song? It's called Back in the Settle. I could have guessed. Oh yeah.
I reckon country music is kind of like salmon. It's like oh my god who doesn't love it, but
After a while you can get a bit rich
It's a bit silly. You can have too much. Yeah I can understand that.
After you start hearing someone sing about pickup trucks and blue dreams and sitting in the saddle you're like okay guys
It's never enough combsy for me. Yeah Luke combs a song five leaf clover. Five? That's our final song!
That's my favourite song too!
Stop it!
Do we just become best friends?
Oh my gosh!
Wow!
We play that and Adrian sings it
and we have a little, I cry every time.
That's the best song.
Oh, a guy like me could have wound up with three,
as in like a three leaf clover,
but instead he got a five leaf clover.
That's the best song.
Oh, I love you, Dan.
See, and that's clever because it feels like
it goes outside of the cliche realm of country. My truck and my gun. Yeah. So next up we've
got something from Lola Young who you'll remember from Messy. You know that song? Messy. So
I heard Elton John actually talking about this song before it was released. He had this
on his podcast last week. There's a track on your album which will be the next single.
I'm going to tell everyone
it's called Dealer. I bet my house that that's the number one single.
I bet my house. It's unbelievable. It's the biggest smash I've heard in years.
And I just can't tell you how proud of you I am because I know what you've been through
and you've come through it on the other side you're gonna have the best career because you
can sing live you can you are just you've got the whole big words from Elton John
I do wonder which house Elton John is betting though because he's got one in
Beverly Hills is worth seven mil then he's got the neighboring mansion which
is worth eight and a half he's got one in Windsor estate with four atlantic. That's all a lot of money.
It's another eight.
Windsor estate in France.
The Queen lives in Windsor estate.
She doesn't live there anymore.
RIP.
Easy to beat your house when you've got five, I think.
Yeah, well still.
So you can just have one of my garden sheets.
He still thinks this song's gonna be a smash, so let's have a little listen. I wanna get away, fall from here, back, back, back,
and then dance again, tell you no, baby, please.
I think Elton's losing his house.
I wanna run and know.
I reckon it's a grower.
Is it?
Yeah, it's an E-Worm.
Also, Elton John's like so good for a GRP
if you're in the industry.
He's great.
It's like he sits home, smashes a bottle of wine,
and then gets all the nice feels and goes,
oh my god. I'm gonna make that first career.
I might text Fuddy Cent,
cause man, he's such a good rapper.
Fuddy Cent.
When it comes to new music, his fingers on the poles.
He could just kick back, retire,
and not give a crap about the future of music,
but he makes a lot of careers of young artists.
He's sharp as a tack, isn't he? 78 years old.
I mean, I don't think he's performing much anymore.
But man, he's got a brain.
Honourable mention, come to New Zealand as well, One Republic.
Ryan Tedder, the brains behind some of the biggest songs in the world. Textbook, One Republic, that song.
The drums, the big vocal.
It's like he's cracked the way to just make a perfect song.
Yeah, he knows what's up.
This is the man that wrote Halo for Beyonce.
Yeah.
Crazy, eh?
Holy shit, you made it the whole way through!
If you want more, find them on Instagram at Edge Breakfast.
See you tomorrow!
