Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a podcast from Rover. The Edge Breakfast. Meg needed time away from these two so bad. She had another baby. Now that's commitment. Wake up with the show, you know. It's The Edge Breakfast. Clint McGinn Dad, 94-2.
Starting point is 00:00:14 All right, team, we're on the air. Good morning. Happy Friday. Good to be here. Turn the lights on. Yeah, producers are like cockroaches. Turn all the lights on. We turn the lights on and they're all like scatter out of our studio and back into their booths.
Starting point is 00:00:26 See ya. See you, team. It's Friday. Do you know what that means? A lot. Pizza not in my household. Oh, do you have pizza every Friday? Every single Friday we do home my pizza is in my house. It's Fish and Chip Friday at my house.
Starting point is 00:00:38 We have fish and chips every Friday. Clint? Yeah. No, we don't have a regular... I think I'm going around to our mate's place. Oh, so ditch your family Friday for you again? No, no, family's coming. Okay.
Starting point is 00:00:48 Ditch your family Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday. It's ditch your family Monday, Monday, Thursday, Friday with Clint. That was my wife last night. Went to a Maybeline PR event while I looked after the kids. Fed her children. bath to her children. Oh, your children. Yeah, mine.
Starting point is 00:01:02 Well, she's not there, that hers makes me feel like I'm doing more. Couldn't fix there as kids anyway. This morning after 8 o'clock, or one of the, I'd say, the best truth booth we've ever had. Yeah, it is. Yeah, it is.
Starting point is 00:01:18 You're going to be good. I'd definitely tune in for that if I could. Mm-hmm. All right, 8 o'clock this morning. It'll make you just feel better about your life in terms of, yeah, in terms of just less drama. No one wants drama in their life. Even if you have got drama in your life, I bet it's not as bad as this person's.
Starting point is 00:01:33 Yeah. Spinning plates, baby. It made me stressed. Yeah. It actually will make you feel less stress going into your weekend. You go, oh, geez, could be worse. I could be here. Clint, Megan Dan.
Starting point is 00:01:43 Oh, my gosh. The flyaway for Harry Stiles in Melbourne has announced this afternoon. I'd imagine around 5 o'clock. So if you want to get yourself in the drawer, I'll be listening after 8 and 9. We'll have got a couple of cut to calls. Oh, we want it. We want a screamer.
Starting point is 00:01:57 Screener. Ask this is the playlist 6am throwback to get you going for your Friday. I thought rather than maybe picking a song based on an artist's on a birthday or some sort of on this day stat, we just pick a Friday vibe song and then you have to vote for your favourite but you can't vote for your own. I like this idea, Clint one of your better ones for the week. Okay, thanks.
Starting point is 00:02:17 I've notched that down, he's had a good idea. I'll put it on the sheet. There's been nothing since 2013. Yeah, it is 13, yeah. Jesus. Wow. So I was still there then? No, you weren't even on this show.
Starting point is 00:02:29 We saw us, we saw on the Instagram. Okay, what do you guys liking? Your one song. I'm struggling for it, so Dan, can you go first? Well, I haven't struggled for this one, Clinton, because everybody knows this is the best song in the world. Bangorang by Skrillex, baby. Bloody good.
Starting point is 00:02:49 It's a great song. We don't play it very often, but when we do, it gets the vibes up. It's a great Friday song. Oh, you should. Should have had it. Well, you tell me what it was. I'm not a mind reader.
Starting point is 00:03:00 Oh, I thought you were quicker than this, though. Yeah, but I can't spell bangerang. It's not a proper word. B-A-N-G-A. Yeah, I went E-R. Come on. I used to drive in my little... What did I have?
Starting point is 00:03:16 I don't even remember now. My little pulsing, Ness and impulsar have the windows down, and I would think that boys would think I'm cool. Speaking of cool boys, one in particular, He doesn't do a lot now But when he dropped this song God there was no one better I'm just looking for it
Starting point is 00:03:33 Master of it. Yeah, it is Jesus When this came out you would have been like 32 Fuck this Daniel, I always swore you a little dick Get me in trouble He would have been like 15 And a 32 year old man
Starting point is 00:03:56 Listen to a 15 year old boy's song So weird I'm going to go really different I'm going to go Pitbull Hotel Room Service Hotel Room Service Yep, that's what I'm going with that one.
Starting point is 00:04:06 It's niche. It's really niche, but it's better than Reese Mastard. True. Pitbull. It's good about here. Not yet. Oh, Dill, Mo, Dill. Now here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Can we vote for our own song? No. Okay. I'm going to vote for a dance. Oh, bingring. What's wrong with you guys? I'm not a huge fan of Pitbull, so I'm going to have to go with Reese Maston. Yes.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Okay, and I don't want to... I'm going to go for Meg, so that's a three-way tie. So now it's over to you. Hmm. Boy, we had a deal. Yeah, but you... I didn't work for a reason, because you said you'd vote for mine.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Play bangor. Play bang on. I had no lines, and then I changed my mind before the vote. Alex checks through saying the VAMS. It wasn't even an option. Well, the VAMS was the original, the playlist. Now we're tied again. We've got one for the VAMs.
Starting point is 00:05:14 One for CERILA. One for... And one for Pibble. Okay. One text on the text machine for one of our three, and it'll win. Okay, the next one, we need. The next one to come through. Okay, I'm just going to play some hold music.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I really hope it's bangorang. One text, three, three, four three. This could be really telling as to how many people listen to our show if it takes ages. Or they just don't like any of the songs. Maybe the phones are broken. The phones are. Reismastered. Yes, Hayden.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Hayden, you are awesome. Beautiful, beautiful man. I'm blocking you for 24 hours. No, I can't because you give me all my. ghost jokes. Hated. Screwlex, too late. You know what, Haiti's probably voted for the worst one. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast.
Starting point is 00:05:59 Your 6am throwback. Good night. Someone texted saying it's going to be a great show today, team. Another one, you boy, shot Clint. Love a bit of Reese. Then Reese, everyone's going on and on. Good luck everybody. Listeners. Clint's in a mood. Yeah, he's in one of his weird moods. I don't know what's going to happen on the show today. Someone texted, like, he just said it.
Starting point is 00:06:17 You, boy, like that. Yeah, boy, with three eyes. Clint goes, yeah, he's my current. guy. No, I just say, yeah, like that's you know. You're my kind of guy. I don't think so, but when Dan said it, it sounded so uncool, so I was like, I couldn't have done that. I couldn't have done that. Oh, I realised I've raised a mini-me.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Yes, Cam? Yeah, my daughter, it's 10. It was like 6.45. There'd be times about 7.30. And I was like, that's early first at a 10-year-old, isn't it? It used to be 7 now, 7-30. And my wife gets all weird out and it's all right in this still up. I was like, babe, I don't think that's late. for a nine and ten year old
Starting point is 00:06:53 was up to 845 last night at my 4 year old at 8.15 It's still light outside at 7.30. I know, I know. So you're trying to black out all the curtains. And she was like, no, I was like, go grab a book or your loom bands and let's kind of just chill and hang out together
Starting point is 00:07:09 and reading things and wind down. And she's like, no, let's invite some people over a drink. What? On a Thursday. Let's go down. She goes, let's get on a limem scooter and go to someone's place who lives close and just pop in for a drink.
Starting point is 00:07:22 We'll just take some drinks over. What drinks? What drinks? Like lemonade? No, she means like go over and have a beer or wine because she knows if mum or dad have a beer or wine with friends, chances are it'll stretch out the night and she gets stabbed later. She knows dad's an alcoholic.
Starting point is 00:07:33 She knows the way to his heart. I haven't had a drink since Saturday. Clint, it's like Friday. No, but that's why I mean an alcoholic couldn't just go four days. Like, we're especially with the weather the way it's been. You have got the jitters, though. Yeah, he's been very shaky. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Yeah, so she was very keen to get out and go for a drink somewhere She's like, let's just, who can we hang out with, text your friends, see who's up? And let's just go. Did we get brought up as your friends? I don't think we can limescooter to your house. You have to lime scoot her over the harbour bridge to get to mine. It's a bit of a hike, especially when their bedtimes 45 minutes to go and counting. Guys, I'm going to the Auckland FC game this weekend.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Oh, yeah, yeah, my wife was invited through her work, so we're going along. I can't wait. Yeah, they're doing very, very well. They just beat top of the table last week, the Newcastle Jets, and they're just sitting still behind them in points. We're second. Yeah, so have we lost a game this season? No, we have.
Starting point is 00:08:29 We have. We have. Oh, yeah, bugger. Yeah, we had that run last year. Good one, Dan. And they ended up winning the league on points, but then they went into the playoffs, and they lost them. Countback. Yeah, oh, well.
Starting point is 00:08:40 But they're going well. Yeah, hopefully we win this weekend. Which color team are we? The blue and blacks. Good. Good. The blue and black. Well, done.
Starting point is 00:08:49 Yes, well, I've got the jersey. I'm taking the jersey. I'm going to be looking the part. Nice. Yeah. What about you, Me? Oh shit. More releases coming up next.
Starting point is 00:08:56 I just realized that. I'm going to be doing that next. But before that, this weekend, I think I'm going to Susie Kato on Sunday. Hoo-hoo, yeah. It's our time. That's Susie? Yeah, yeah, she does little kids shows, like, every second.
Starting point is 00:09:10 Still? Yes. She's amazing at it, too. She still has the gift with, like, four-year-olds now, as she did at four-year-olds. the 90s. I think she was like my first crush when I was like a kid. She was like, every kid's like first crush, hey Susie Cater.
Starting point is 00:09:23 She looks at the wiggles and she's like, man, if I could have just found three more mates who were all keen as well. But she she's just, you know when some people were made for their job, I watched her last show and I was like, you were born to entertain kids. She's so good at it. She should have cracked it in the 2000s when the internet was a thing. Yeah, because I think
Starting point is 00:09:40 Miss Rachel's the modern version of Susie. And she, yeah, you're so right then. She's almost what would have, Ms. Susie Cater would have been if she had the end to there. See you see you later. It's time to say goodbye. See you see you later. She should have been Sally.
Starting point is 00:09:55 When the role model was here. Yeah, she definitely should have been her. This is me off. And she was great on dancing with the stars. So hot. My husband, something was awoken in him when he around. And she was great as the to-y and the mass singer. Yes, of course she was.
Starting point is 00:10:08 I know I remembers that show. I don't accept him. Clint Megadan. Lesh-co. More or less, different topic. every morning. We just have to guess if the first topic
Starting point is 00:10:17 is more or less than the second. No English majors listening this morning. Shocker. Shocker. It is a Shakespearean themed morally.
Starting point is 00:10:27 How long time wise are his plays? Oh, this will be... Based on word count. We do have some smart people that listen though. There's a guy who's the father of one of the kids
Starting point is 00:10:37 and my son's touched him. He's a heart surgeon. Is he? And he listens to the show? He's talking to me? He's talking about, whatever? Does he still listen
Starting point is 00:10:43 or was this a while ago? I don't know. Nice. But he's a heart surgeon. Smart people listen to the show. He was listening when Meg was away. Yeah. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:10:54 It's possibly right. He hasn't listened this year. Crap. All right. Which is longer, Hamlet or Othello? According to words. I studied Hamlet and it was pretty long. It is.
Starting point is 00:11:06 I mean, let's be honest, all Shakespeare's long, isn't it? Well, I don't know. I've never seen the Thello one. Othello. Yeah, right. I'd say Hamlet's longer. Yeah, correct, boys. Well, done.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Oh my God, it's so smart. Yeah. I saw Othello at high school, and I don't remember it being super, super long. Okay. Sorry, the business just texted, obviously her traffic update. Claire on the motorway my ass. Yeah. Sorry, mate.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Romeo and Juliet or the 12th night, which is longer? Romeo and Juliet, I feel like it's a pretty average length. The 12th night. It's getting longer and longer, isn't it? Should we go? Should we longer? If they've started from the first night, Got all the way to the 12th?
Starting point is 00:11:45 What's it just on the 12th night? Well, I don't know. It's just one night. True Meg, that's the question, isn't it? I'm going to swing at this one, Dan. I'm going to say the 12th night is longer. You shouldn't have. It's Romeo and Juliet three hours.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Leave it to me from here, Clinton. Okay, then Dan, Macbeth or Oswell that ends well? Oldswell, that ends well, definitely. Yes, absolutely correct. Okay, what about as you like it versus a midsummer night stream? Mid-Summer night stream. Absolutely incorrect, Dan. No, no, I wasn't, I hadn't answered yet.
Starting point is 00:12:12 I was going to say mid-summer nights dream I saw it and was two wax and they're about an hour long so that's annoying from you anyway well that's a loss for me then well we've got one more are I going to have the bat again okay no winner takes all and it's over to you Clint
Starting point is 00:12:27 alright last goal wins Julia Caesar or two gentlemen of Verona okay I was going to say two gentlemen of Verona but it's your question you think two gentlemen are longer yeah or just Julius Caesar on his own I think the Caesar guy is longer on
Starting point is 00:12:43 own. You'd be right. Good on you, Clinton. Thank you, Daniel. You know, I was trying to throw him off because I didn't want him to take on the glory. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. Because I don't know if you meant by the two guys. Are they longer side by side or end to end? You know what?
Starting point is 00:12:58 Sometimes I feel like you're really immature. I haven't seen any of the plays. He's immature only because he's so old. And he's the oldest on the show, and he's got the most potty humour. Oh, isn't it? Honest of God, I'm going to record what Dan says when we go to an ad break. And then I'm just going to put it up on, I don't know, do we just play it next? I'm going to be very quiet this next song.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Dan is the most inappropriate of anyone in my life. That is true. You should hear what he says to me behind the scenes. I have a whole notebook. Meek, can you read some of the things Dan has said to you? I literally can't. Why don't you swap out? I can't read some of the stuff Meg says to me either.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Why can't you swap out some of the rude words for cute animals? Yeah, I can do one. I can do one and I'll swap it out. with you. The only one she can do is just one out of about 20. Yeah. And Meg has a list of the mean things that dance. Oh yeah, let's give us a tease now.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Give us a tease. You would be so fired of Megwin T-Hour. Stop looking at my fluffy dark, you kitten, koala. I don't even know what the original was. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Time to get into it. We've seen all your texts, but it's nice to get you on the phone and actually have a bit of a yarn wheel.
Starting point is 00:14:11 Yeah. And I'm padding because I'm looking for. For the first call of the day. First call of the day. He is the best, isn't he did? Oh, he is. He is the best of the game. Everyone always says that. I'm going to go get an energy drink.
Starting point is 00:14:22 You know, we used to have an old producer that if I was a little bit like rusty and slow. He wouldn't even say anything. He'd just walk in. Drop a red bull and then walk off. Yeah, that's when you knew you were stuffing up. Yeah, he's the best in the game when he's got his red bull.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Hi, Hannah. Good morning, guys. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Oh, Hannah, you work as a cleaner. I've got a cleaner. I've got a question for you.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Your job, is it to tidy and clean? Or is it just to clean? Pick up your crap to make your job easier first. It's just mostly tidy and clean. If your stuff all over the table, that's your problem. I'm just thinking around it. This is why, because I genuinely think at the moment, like everything's getting on top of us in our household at the moment.
Starting point is 00:15:06 We've had kids with sickness and work and the house is a mess. And so I was like, maybe I could get a clue. or one-off cleaner, but then I thought, I've got to clean for the cleaner because it's putting toys away. Yeah, the cleaner's there to sort of maintain the mess. Yes, no. Hannah, out of interest, because you're a professional. What's your favourite chore when cleaning? What's the worst one?
Starting point is 00:15:27 Because mine's vacuuming. I love vacuuming. It's satisfying. Yeah, if you've got a good fact, thank you. Yeah, I think I'm going to go with probably windows, because it's just really satisfying to see all those fingerprints come off and to be able to, like, sand. through.
Starting point is 00:15:44 The thing is, it takes them. Normally you can see through, but there's always that, like, where you're doddle or two, that's like, God, I really want that to, like, not be there, if you know what I mean? Speaking of not being there, is it really annoying, or do you not care when you're cleaning someone's house and that
Starting point is 00:16:01 in the home? Nightmare. If I'm on my own, or if they're there. Yeah, like, if they're there and you're cleaning kind of around them while they're doing, God knows what. Honestly, I don't mind. I love to have a good week to chat. Nine times out of ten, I'm listening to a podcast.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Yeah. Anyway, promo the Oversangest podcast. Hey, get in. That's a great choice. And Hannah, it says here your special skill. Now, this is something that really awoken me. Special skill, I can make a chew buck a noise. Let's hear it.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Yeah. Oh, I don't know if I can do it anymore, but I used to be able to make that tube buccanoy. I don't want to embarrass myself on a national radio by not being able to. do it anymore. Oh, Dad will do it first. I'll do it first, then you see if you can do it better.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Most people are still asleep. Okay. Okay, I'll do my one, and then as long as you promise Hannah to do yours after me. All right, I'll try. Here we go. I don't know, mine's not very good. Oh, you're right, it wasn't very good. Hannah, what do you go?
Starting point is 00:17:05 I haven't been able to do it since I was a kid, but... Oh. Okay, I reckon Meg, you could even give it a go now following that. You've lost it. Still better than Max. Yeah, it's all good. You're up. Yeah, Clitz's the best.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Well done, of course he's good at it. I've never done that before. I haven't even seen the movie. Oh, God, that pisses me off. I've heard of it. Can I ask you guys a question? Go on, babe. Do you remember me from a lecture bath?
Starting point is 00:17:38 Oh, God, yes. What was she wearing, Dad? You were wearing. Now, let me think. Okay. It was the purple dress. No. Oh, yeah. Oh, bugger. My partner's name is Daniel.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Oh. Yes, Dan and Hannah. Dan and Hannah. Dan and Hannah. Yes, why I do remember. Because we're like your dad and Hannah. And there's Dan and Hannah. Yeah, I do remember now.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Oh, that's so sticky of you to not remember. I don't remember what you're wearing, to be fair, but I don't remember what anyone was wearing. I couldn't tell you what Nick was wearing. Yes, that's, of course it was. Oh, it was lovely to meet you guys. the other, the alternate universe, Dan and Hannah. Yeah. Yes.
Starting point is 00:18:18 The Christchurch version. Yeah. Yeah, better looking version, actually, in my opinion. Not my wife. Oh, Sam. Right. Okay. Sent to your, Hannah.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Thanks for calling this, Hannah. Yeah, you hold there, Hannah. We'll give you a voucher and you can go spend in store at Z. You spend it on whatever you like. Probably fuel at the moment with the way that that's all going. But if you want to treat yourself and you're not sort of for lunch, they've got delicious salads for only $8.90 you can get amongst. That is good for a salad, under $10.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Oh, Dan. Nauty 640 Nix was pretending to play with himself in his car yesterday. True or false? True or false? True. Thank you. Clint Megan Dan. I have my Red Bull, so we are away now.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Good, good, good, good. Thanks car. We did a bit of filming for a Instagram and TikTok reel yesterday that involved me in my vehicle. Okay. And I got the idea from, I, on the way to work, not yesterday the day before, I spilled a bit of coffee on my lap.
Starting point is 00:19:17 And it was a boiling hot coffee that I got from Zed. And it was delicious, actually, lovely delicious coffee. Almost perfect tem. Yeah, it was perfect but quite hot, because I just ordered it and it spilled onto my lap. And Jesus Christ, it got me right in that spot, you know, where it's like... You groin? Yeah, and it was...
Starting point is 00:19:32 I thought you meant the tip. Yeah, I don't know. I mean what spot? It starts running down. I was having to, like, clean it. It was really, really boiling. Oh, you get... Dan gets long blacks, you see. So, yeah. Which is ironic. Why is that ironic?
Starting point is 00:19:47 Like you're talking about you're spilling it on your bits and you get a long black and yours is not. And so there was a lot of pain. And I thought as I was driving, this could look quite suspect if you're looking into the car and not knowing what's just happened. Right. Because I'm doing a lot of dabbing,
Starting point is 00:20:03 a lot of rubbing in that area. Right. And so I did a little Instagram where I drove my car and parked on the side of the road and pretended to spill coffee. my lap and then set up a camera on the outside of my car filming into the car, me doing this thing and going on a tripod? On a tripod? With a tripod.
Starting point is 00:20:21 You're such an influence of these things. I know, I know. I would have, that would be too scary for me. I saw it and I was like, oh, bloody Hannah, she's at it again. No, Hannah was not involved. She wouldn't be involved in this. It was like, I don't want to film you pretending to play with yourself. So you want to see you can text car to 3343. That's not the reason I'm talking about this though because you might just want to see the context. Because as I was filming it, and I went to like a very what I thought was quite a quiet road. It was like a cul-de-sacter in my neighbourhood.
Starting point is 00:20:47 So there's very few... It was like in the middle of the day. I thought, no one would be home. And so I'm sitting there, a cold sack, going to town on myself in the car, trying to clean up the coffee from my lap. Oh, like fake coffee because this is... Yes.
Starting point is 00:20:59 You're like, yeah, right, you're acting it. And I've done about three takes, and I hear a voice from behind the car going, what are you doing? Like this. And it was an old woman that I'd seen before. She does a walk around the neighbourhood and she's one of these busy bodies.
Starting point is 00:21:13 No, Dan, you're in her neighborhood pretending to have a play with yourself. It is not her being a busy body. Also, I'm doing your own business. I'm not hurting anyone. You are hurting somebody if you're having a, you know, in a car, in the middle of the day. That is actually hurting people. Why?
Starting point is 00:21:29 Why? I also saw the way that you, like, start, like, vigorously rubbing the stain. I have never tried that hard to get a stain off my pants. It was my nice pair of pants. Clint, I wanted to get it out. I'd probably look at it. Oh, bugger. And then that's about as far as I'd go.
Starting point is 00:21:46 I think she's very brave to be a woman to see a man filming himself playing with himself in her neighbourhood. That's the thing. I had a tripod set up. There was a lighting thing, like a lighting ring. She doesn't know what you weird influences do? People film that for pornography and stuff. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:22:01 In the middle of the day? It's voyeurism. Is that what it's called? How do you know? I just googled it. And so I was quick. It was so fast. I had to explain to this woman.
Starting point is 00:22:12 old busybody, like, woman, that I'm filming an Instagram, and it's just a coffee spill. Chill out. And she walked off and a half. Like she'd sort of, she was, it's like she wanted me to go, sorry, yes, I am filming myself doing that. What are you going to do? Call the police, and then she was going to call the police.
Starting point is 00:22:28 No, but she didn't get in. She could have, because it would be illegal. Which, hey, in a way, Dan, congratulations. That shows how good your acting must have been. Exactly, Clint. Exactly. And it was, I had to take, to be honest, it was like take five as well, so I had had to film like four or five takes
Starting point is 00:22:42 and then she'd come out. So I sort of don't blame her. Yeah, good. I think she's very brave, actually, for doing that. For protecting her neighbourhood. Someone's text through saying Clint is full of top-tier gags today. Would we agree on that? Oh, thanks, man.
Starting point is 00:22:56 I feel like they're all gutter. Gutter trash. I think it's just the tip of the iceberg. So let that be a lesson to you. I think it's just a lesson to all influences. So if you're going to be doing that sort of stuff. A reminder, this isn't the first time you've played with yourself in a car. Someone said, what about the time that Auckland
Starting point is 00:23:10 the biggest floods that it's had in 100 years. Didn't you get trapped for a few hours and had nothing else to do? Yeah, he wouldn't have a wank in his car. Oh, Jesus, Meg. Sorry. Why? You haven't really... Disguised that at all.
Starting point is 00:23:25 And we'd also done that on the OnlyFans podcast, never on here. Oh, damn, we always forget. It's hard when they get mixed up, isn't it, Glenn? That's right. I do remember that dad said, not for on here, and then he shared it on the podcast. Yeah. Anyway, there we go. So Meg's done a little bit of a gag there.
Starting point is 00:23:39 And that wasn't even me. That was Clint. Well, you use the W word. Let's play a song, Clinton. Forget this never happened. Do you want to do it's not what it looks like, calls? Or nah. You can if you want.
Starting point is 00:23:48 I feel like, yeah, okay, let's do that. It's not what it looks like. So when were you caught in the moment where it looked like you were doing something bad, but it actually wasn't that one. Because whenever people say, it's not what it looks like, it's almost always what it looks like. Except in this case. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Dan was filming himself doing an Instagram reel of you trying to get a stain, a coffee stain out of your pants, but it looked like you're playing with yourself from outside the car. Yeah. And unfortunately, well, I think she did was doing a great job, but a little old lady saw it happen, what, four times or so you said four takes? A busy body. Like if I saw that happening outside, I'd go, oh, yep, you know, someone's trying to film something, a little bit of a laugh.
Starting point is 00:24:23 No, she thought it was something serious. Did they still have a neighbourhood watch? When I was a kid, they used to have that, maybe she's part of it. No one needs that when you got Deborah walking around. She's the head president of neighborhood watch, I imagine. What do you want to know, what did it not look like? What were you doing something innocent, but it didn't look so innocent? Somebody said that there was a lot of moaning coming from their speaker
Starting point is 00:24:45 and their flightmates thought they knew what was going on in a bedroom. Turns out they were doing a gym breathing tutorial for their... They'd try to take up yoga. Oh, like Wim Hof almost. Yeah, and they're like... Yeah. Heavy breathing. That'll do it, I suppose.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Oh, someone else said they walked in on their wife holding a pair of handcuffs in the bedroom, and they thought they were on. They're like, oh, here was. you go and she was just tidying up the costumes from a dress-up party that they had the weekend before was trying to make some space or at least that was her excuse. Probably trying to put them away, absolutely. Probably the attic. What would you, I guess it was a police costume or something, was it?
Starting point is 00:25:21 And she was just trying to tidy that away? I mean, we've got a whole, you know, you just start collecting dress-up stuff? And then you don't even really know why you even have half the stuff anymore because it's been so long that you needed it. I think it's very niche for you. Mm-hmm. And this island's quite good where someone ended up calling the place on us. because my husband was walking around the house with a torch trying to find the fuse box after our power went out,
Starting point is 00:25:44 but they thought someone was robbing them. The cops ended up showing up because it's just a torch going around the house all around the house, and they thought someone had burgled them. I had friends in that situation. They were house sitting, and they had to, like, scale the side of the house and get into the window because they left the keys inside,
Starting point is 00:25:58 and then they got the cops called on them because they were breaking in, but really, they were looking after the house, and they didn't want the owners to know that they had lost the keys. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so they got. back into the house. That's one of those situations when you're doing it
Starting point is 00:26:11 it'd feel illegal. Yes. You know, really it's not, you're just at your own house. It's like when you go through the checkout without buying something at the supermarket. Yes, and you're like,
Starting point is 00:26:18 I definitely know anything in my pockets. I just decided not to buy anything. You didn't have the thing I literally just came in here for. They don't let you get out of the supermarket without going through the aisles now. No, they put a trolley in the things. Yeah, why are they doing that?
Starting point is 00:26:31 Yeah, does anyone else do that when they enter like a bottle store? And they look at you and they go, hey, and they're sort of looking up and down, I don't know, clearly you're old enough but you feel like you have to justify your age that you're allowed to be there? No, they know you are old enough, Clint.
Starting point is 00:26:44 They're never looking you up and down. They go, hi, Clint, welcome back. Second time today, hey? You're fine, Clint. I just pick the kids up from school because I'm an adult. And I'm allowed to be here. They're like Clint's back again.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Just don't drink it in the car with the kids, Clint. Is that why they're looking to be funny? I thought I was underage. Of course you did. Clint Megan Dan. The Edge is easy money. shot at $10,000. Here we go, bang on 7 o'clock.
Starting point is 00:27:12 10 grand. Going into your bank account, tax-free. If you can give us 10 answers, starting with the letter made, gives you in 30 seconds. All right, it's Lou, and she's a first-time caller. Morning, Lou.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Hello. Hi, Lou. Good morning. You got through this morning your chance to win $10,000. You're getting married this winter. Yes. And we're on a bit of a budget,
Starting point is 00:27:31 so the money would definitely go towards some truth. Okay, great. Let's get this for you. Yeah. All right. Lou, your letter this morning is H for hamburger. Okay, we can see what's on Meg's mind.
Starting point is 00:27:46 Someone's hungry. Delicious. All right, Lou, here we go, here we go, here we go. Give me a celebrity. Hadam, a... Pass. A type of sauce. Heinz?
Starting point is 00:28:01 A TV show. Pass. A car part. Pass. Something that needs electricity. House phone. Verb. Helping.
Starting point is 00:28:24 Oh, loo. You're going to go Hannah. She said Montana. I think we would have paid that. Yeah, we would have paid Hannah Montana. Yeah, I thought that was what I was thinking, and then I got off. Helen Marin. What did you say for something that needs power, house phone?
Starting point is 00:28:37 House phone? Yeah, that's like a landline. Oh, yeah, I guess so. Yeah. What else you could have done, hair dryer, hair straightener. The things that you missed, home and away. Heated rivalry, Harry Styles, heat ledger, handbrake, headlamp, hubcap. But, Lou, please don't let this scare you off of never calling us again.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Yeah, true. It's actually been a real pleasure. And I call us again. I just don't, maybe not for easy money, because I don't think that's for you. It's always harder at 7, Lou. I think at 8 o'clock, you'd say it had an extra hour under your bout to get an extra coffee in and stuff. Have a great day, Lou. She was lovely.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Back again at 8 o'clock, that's going to be happening just before we get into our Truth booth this morning. if you haven't heard us discuss that. This isn't even the bomb. For a couple of months, I've been having an affair on my husband. It started over the summer, and I met them at a great barbecue, and they're the parent of my kid's school friend.
Starting point is 00:29:32 We were like, damn, that's a big bomb, not the bomb. No, that's just the tip of the iceberg, really. Yep. Hey, guys, I'm going to do something next that I haven't run past either of you. I stayed late after you left and squirreled away on this, so you couldn't veto it. God. Last time he did this, it was a shocker. Remember that, Meg? Remember that day? We got told off. Yes.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Clint, Megan Dan. All right, guys. I've got a G-up for you. A G-U-R. What does that mean? What does that mean? I got a G-up. Boys are playing tomorrow. We're undefeated. We're top of the table. And it could be our year. The Waz. For over 30 years, Megan.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Yes. These three words have lived in the hearts and roared from the lungs of every New Zealand Warriors fan. Up the ones. Up the one. Up the one. Not those three words. These three. This is our year, baby.
Starting point is 00:30:23 This is our year. It's the year. And more than 20 years ago, when we charged into our first grand final, we thought that it was. The grand final of 2002 is over. Ricky Stewart's, Sydney Roosters, have won over Daniel Anderson's
Starting point is 00:30:45 New Zealand Warriors. But 2002 was not our year. We waited, we believed, and we came again. Almost a decade later, only to have our hearts ripped out once more. In the shadows of full-time, the captain, Jamie Lyonels. 2011 was not our year. Since then, we've had the stars, the moments, the flashes of greatness that dragged us right back in, had us daring to believe all over again. Johnson gets dancing.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Johnson lies in Disneyland. Here's the shot. 31. Oh, my God. From couches to sidelines to sold our stands, screaming, hoping, believing and now. Come on! Could the wait? Finally.
Starting point is 00:32:02 We didn't just show up. We took down a premiership heavyweight contender. And then we backed it up, thumping last year's minor premiers. That's what? It's in the shadows no more maybe next year. Some to be proud and know that the year, 26, what is the cut? is actually the one we've been waiting for. Are you excited?
Starting point is 00:33:08 Yes. I can't believe they haven't won in 31 years. Get up on your feet, Meg. No. Get up and yell. It's our year. You're right, Meg, 31 years. Since 1995 we've been trying to win.
Starting point is 00:33:19 It's a long time. It's a very long time to have such loyal fans. And now's the time. Now's the time to get on the bandwagon. You know, yeah. We're two from two, baby. I do take my hat off to Warriors fans, the fact that I've gone that long
Starting point is 00:33:32 and not had like a payoff for all their support over the years. It's incredible. It is good. You guys just believe and believe and believe. Yeah. Because then when it does happen, we're being teased with it for so long.
Starting point is 00:33:42 It's going to be that much sweeter when it happens. So it's going to have to have it. this year? This year. Yeah, this is our year. Didn't you hear him just before. He said it about 10 times. We've won two from two. We're top of the table. Come on. How many more games? Oh, 23, 24.
Starting point is 00:33:56 There's a lot to go. There's a lot of time between now and then, but hey. We're undefeated this year. Top of the table, baby. Up the wards tomorrow night. Clint, megan, Dan. Slick, flick, flex. All right, we are looking for someone to flex their unique, quirky skill.
Starting point is 00:34:17 We're not looking for anyone who's like, I'm the fastest runner in New Zealand. We've seen fast people run before. Oh, haven't we? We heard of a dime a dozen, Clint. We wanted to see yesterday, Monique from Fangare, come in and pick up a box of puzzle pieces and tell us exactly how many pieces we're in it
Starting point is 00:34:33 despite the fact that we'd tampered with the box and pulled a random number out. Yeah, it's those sort of talents we want. It's stuff that's not common. Not your runners, not your pole vaulters. Not your people that can swim really fast. If you miss it, unfortunately, Monique got coffee and she didn't show up in studio yesterday.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Produce car has a bit of an update on that actually. She's reached out. Yes, she's reached out. So apparently yesterday during the drive show, she was the Ashlandish, so she called and one of the producers answered and said, hey, Monique's still really, really keen to give it a go. So, yeah, I think it still might be in the running here. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:09 The thing I think we need, you know, the Monique's of the world. Yeah. I think we need to dangle some sort of carrot out there. Yeah, have we asked the boss for some prize money? Yeah, I think that's what we need, Meg. I think we need some sort of money, even if it's not money. It's something where people go, I will show my talent for that. Yeah, otherwise, why would I show you my incredible talent for free?
Starting point is 00:35:29 You know what they say, if you're good at something, don't do it for free, Meg. That's true. You do it for money. Okay, let's have a meeting and talk to the boss about how big a carrot we can get as we go on a quest to find New Zealand's biggest flex. So Monique, she's had strike one I think in the background we can pursue that one If she is actually keen
Starting point is 00:35:49 Had a genuine excuse as to why she couldn't get in yesterday Because it was a bit disappointing When she didn't show up But Meg has a list of people That have sent in their skills that maybe Because it's wide open now Auditions are open I mean my favourite Meg you'll have her in front of you
Starting point is 00:36:03 But the lady that says She cannot feel earthquakes Wendy Woods Where are you Wendy? Give me a call Oh 800 at the edge I'm dying to talk to you It's too hard to test Even if we put her in like an earthquake simulator
Starting point is 00:36:16 and we're all falling over the place, she could just be like, nut, don't feel it. But the thing is though, there is some simulators in the country, there's one at Auckland Museum. She just needs to be honest. We could go there. But that's what I mean, it's a easy cheat.
Starting point is 00:36:30 Yeah. I don't know. It's like everyone running the 100 metre sprint separately and they go, what time did you get? And you go, what did the other guy get? And they said 9.46. And you go, huh, I got 9.36. Okay, well, then you get the gold.
Starting point is 00:36:42 We'll trust, Jeff. We'll trust you. We also have the person that says they can smell spirits, which we still don't know if it's ghosts or alcohol. I think the alcohol is more impressive. Again, the ghost could be lying. Could be lying. Yeah, true, could be lying.
Starting point is 00:36:53 Okay. Kirsty can snort spaghetti. Are we impressed? And then back out through her nose? If she can get it back out and fall out her mouth. And kind of pull it back and forward like a shoelace. Yeah, that is impressive. Mark Johnson is pretty good at catching goats.
Starting point is 00:37:05 So he's not 100%. He's pretty good, dad. He's pretty good. I said before, Lizzie is good at guessing men's pants size. that could still be one if we line up a whole bunch of people and if she gets it right every single time. Yeah, as I said you say, she's not making the Avengers, but she's definitely something.
Starting point is 00:37:19 You'd be annoyed, eh, if your life was on the line, she showed up. Rachel says she can still. Rachel says she can fill a sauce bottle from a can without a funnel. Wow. Sometimes I think the skills are scraping the barrel. And then you go, wow, that's the thing you're the best at? What are you terrible at? Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:37:39 What about you, Steph? Oh, 800 the edge. What can you do? I call it like a frog noise with my tongue but I don't know if it's a frog Oh you know so it's just a noise with your tongue Yeah Could it be eligible over the over the radio
Starting point is 00:37:52 If we can hear it right now Just to give us a little something something Okay give us a go Did you hear it? No no that's like Yeah no that wasn't very good Not great Not great
Starting point is 00:38:06 Monique is just sitting home eh Just smirking away Rubbing her hansi yoga It's still better than France You guys got Seriously if it's better than Francis is who says her special skill is she can feel a cold front approach. So I feel like...
Starting point is 00:38:19 Do you know the worst one, but I still think it'll be hilarious to test it as the girl that can walk into different rooms and tell you which one someone's farted in? Similar to the cold front lady as well. You're always going to put the fart in the last room, aren't you? No, no, no. Jesus. She just walks into her room with Clinton and she's like,
Starting point is 00:38:38 that was definitely this room. That was that room. Yeah. Okay, so the auditions, like I said, wide open. we'll find a carrot for you as we go on the lookout for New Zealand's biggest flex. Well, most unique flex. Yeah, I think the unique flex is the key. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:52 Because you can flex about anything, couldn't you? You're right, but I think the uniqueness of it is key. Yeah, something very specific if we can find it. But we will have to find some sort of carrot. If it's anything we've ever seen in the Olympics, don't want to see it. We've seen that before. Uh-uh. Clint, Megan Dan.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Let's get into the highlights of this week. It's that producer in EPFL feels you shouldn't have missed if life's been getting in the way. Are we ready, team? nervous, excited? I usually get a little bit nervous for this. Just because we don't hear it. We hear it the same time you do. Yeah, truly.
Starting point is 00:39:18 Yeah. I like actually hearing it live for the first time. And producing NEPA stares at all three of us waiting to see if we're going to laugh or what. All right, guys, what your game faces on? Atamaria, good morning and welcome back to another producer diary. The Oscars, say Patty's Day and a whole bunch of great calls. Let's get into it. Last weekend, Meg entered herself into the QMU-A-MP show
Starting point is 00:39:38 with a high hope of taking home first prize in absolutely anything. Unfortunately, that wasn't quite the case. Let's start with best chutney. What was your placing? Yeah, didn't place. Didn't place. Plum sauce. Right, best plum sauce.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Didn't place. Brilliant, surprising. This cookie. Best cookies? Yeah, we ate those? Yes, you said you need to take two bites? Yeah. They took one, didn't place.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Best relish. Obviously relish, right. Didn't place. Oh, right. Peggy won that first, second and third. But the good thing is Clint, Peggy wasn't in the best watercolor painting. No, she wasn't boys.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Yeah, sorry. Nice big place. Didn't play. It was also Oscars Day on Monday, and our Swedish reporter Sven was by the red carpet, ready to get the scoop for us. Unfortunately, he was about three hours early there, so there were slim pickings of celebrities he could talk to.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Oh, look, and I tell you what, who just got out. Will Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. Should I go up and say hello? I don't think they're together anymore. I also think he's banned from the Oscars. Jada, Jada, I loved you in G. It was a great movie. I love you.
Starting point is 00:40:45 Wai's name out your f***, no! Oh my goodness B, I'm bleeding. The wound is starting to smell like almonds, which is not good. Oh, he's knocked me out. Okay. Oh, he's very aggressive. Ay, aye, aye.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Oh, oh. A few more. Go on. I'm just been managed to get away by now. No. The following day we caught up with Tom, who was in L.A. at the time of the Oscars. He told us about one of the best lame claims to fame we've ever heard
Starting point is 00:41:27 after seeing Michael B. Jordan at an in-and-out burger after winning his Oscar. He had a quick bite of his burger. He only left his fries behind, so we went and ate his fries. Tom sparked a bit of a lame claims to fame chat, and Jeremy came through with this fantastic call about his dad. longest drinking town milkshake cup. Oh yeah, the giraffe. He drew that when he was a graphic artist in Auckland.
Starting point is 00:41:51 That's the best one we've had. And then there was this call from listener Ellie and Deneiden. I think she may have slightly missed the mark with this one. You stayed in the same hotel with who? No, no, no, it's not even that close. I can just see it from my lounge. It's even lame. Okay, so from your lounge, you can see a hotel,
Starting point is 00:42:08 and inside the hotel room was who? I couldn't see inside the hotel. Oh, gosh, you saw a hotel. Saw a hotel from your lounge that Chris Martin stayed in. No, I'm going to talk to. No, it gets shame because I didn't even live here then. I live here now. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:42:23 We also got chatting about horrible teachers this week after receiving this voice message on our overthinkers Instagram feedback page. She made me stand in front of the class, went around my friend group, and got each of them to tell me what they disliked about me. So we asked you about your horrible teacher stories and after hearing some of these,
Starting point is 00:42:38 you might start considering homeschool, I reckon. I was like 14. and I had a teacher pull me out of class. She pretty much asked if I was pregnant and she'd notice I'd put on a couple KGs. I was talking in class. What the teacher got me to do was to stand up in front of everyone and slap myself.
Starting point is 00:42:54 In year 8, in English you got played little clip. One of the clips was of a cartoon farmer who was having sex with a cow. Oh, my God. What are these changes, don't we're going, eh? And finally, it would say Patty's Day this week. So naturally, we got chatting about splitting and even finding the G.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Can you get a 0% gunners? Yeah, they're actually really impressive. You can still split the G on them, so they're fine. You feel cool saying that? Yes. You'd feel cool if you could actually do it. Never been able to do it, Clint? I can never find the G.
Starting point is 00:43:27 All righty, and that's all we've got time for this week. That was another producer diaries. Up the Wires. We'll catch you same time, same place next week for another one. Bye. Let's go, thanks, Names. A hell of a week. Yeah, God, it's been a long week, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:43:40 Do we just become best friends? Do we just say the same thing at the same time? Yeah. Oh my goodness me. We're on the same wavelength, Clinton. Do it again. It's been a long week. I've been a long week.
Starting point is 00:43:50 I honestly forgot what we said already. You can't recreate that sort of stuff. Clint Nick and Dan. New music, Friday. Red new. Luke Holmes' album is out today. If you want to check it out, this is the latest release.
Starting point is 00:44:06 He's done from it. And it's a little bit more upbeat called Rethink Something. You're the kind of woman. He's a great husband, because he sings about stuff that sounds like he would be. If you look at his Instagram, he's very like a family man. He's a lot of stuff about his kids and his wife. You can't be singing about stuff like that and then be a bit of a P.R.S. at home. Yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:44:44 They should be like, oh my God, cool. Everyone else. Everyone thinks the sun shines out of you. Like Alan preaching about being nice and then she's a bit of a bee behind the scenes. Rule Australian singer, I think this is going to hit on the edge easily. It's called Don't Say That. It's about a girl trying to break up with him and he's like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Come on now, don't say that. Don't just don't think that.
Starting point is 00:45:06 No, I just don't know. He came in and we recorded a bit of like a prank with him. He was such a good dude. Just, I was like, yeah, cool, whatever you want, let's go. Lily from the office, hey, she's got a huge crush on that. Yeah, she'll like this one, surely. It'll be a good day for her. He got in the elevator, and she happened to be in it as well,
Starting point is 00:45:28 and then we made the elevator breakdown, and they got stuck in a lift together. Very nice. us really. We set them up, didn't we? They're married now. Kalid is back with Alok who is a producer. He's got this song dive into me and they use a sample of a song that's been used in the kind of dance track world for a very long
Starting point is 00:45:45 time. Here are a couple of the samples used elsewhere. You're hearing, yeah. And then we used it yet again with dive into me. It was another one a day that when we did EdgeFest back in the day and we had Jason DeWrullo headlining it and I think Khalid ended up
Starting point is 00:46:13 showing up like the following week and And just like, it was relatively new then and just put like 10,000 people in Spark Arena. Out of the blue. Was like, what the hell? Very talented man. And my pick of the week, I don't know if we'll be playing it on the edge, but what do you get when you put Ray with this?
Starting point is 00:46:29 With Hans Zimmer, who does movie scores. Fiction. She's written a song called ClickClack Symphony, which is about when you're feeling really low and you don't want to leave the house and then your girls teach you, go, right, we're getting out. But you get ready, we're going, and you hear those high heels together,
Starting point is 00:46:46 you hear girls laughter, and you get soaked up in it, and the energy is like none other. Hans is like, when I wonder what you're my turn. Up with Ray, especially, is every time she releases a song. I thought this is the same with where the hell is my husband. You go, oh, I don't know about that. And then three or four listens in, you're like, I get it.
Starting point is 00:47:35 I get it what you're trying to do here. Dan, she's the ultimate, like, second or third listen sort of. Oh, she is. But that's because she's just so, she's doing stuff so differently to anyone else. So your brain can't comprehend that first click-clack symphony. That little clip I played, the song changes up so much. It's hard to even play you what it sounds like. So have a listen to it full through if you can today.
Starting point is 00:47:55 Yeah, no mention of Sistema. I don't think it at all there, then. No, click-clack about the heels. She was doing a paid post for click-click. All right, this could be you this afternoon on the Ash London show. Holly? You go to go there. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:48:10 He's already going to Harry Stiles in Sydney. That was last Friday. She's given away another trip to the Ashlandon show this afternoon. A fly away to see Harry Stiles in Melbourne. We'll get you in the drawer. Your last chance after 8 o'clock. Clint, Megan Dan. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:48:29 If you're a guy, a man with a daughter, young daughter, or you are in a family where your husband sometimes looks after the girls, I'm in a situation like that with my husband. We have a four and a half-year-old daughter and a guy is a stay-at-home dad with both of our girls. But there have been situations now as we're getting into an age where Daisy is more aware of her surroundings compared to being like a one or two-year-old
Starting point is 00:48:53 where you'd go into a bathroom if she needed to go or you needed to go and you have to take her with you. Of what bathroom you go to. Now, luckily, this is hardly ever a situation because it's a family room. They're everywhere now. Family room. New Zealand's very good with them, A.
Starting point is 00:49:06 incredible, parent rooms, family rooms. Can you have disabled toilet? I think if somebody was in a situation, yeah, I would be upset, I think, if somebody was like, hey, you can't go in there, if, you know, guys in there trying to get a girl and a nappy change, do you know, like, I think that
Starting point is 00:49:22 would be fair. But if there is no situation like that, and there are still places, like in the AMP show over the weekend, they had toilet block and it was males and females. There was no family room because it's very old, you know, grounds. What are you do in that situation? It's a bit of a chat on because I feel, obviously, I don't want to make any woman uncomfortable with,
Starting point is 00:49:41 and my husband doesn't want to make any woman uncomfortable with him going into a female bathroom. We understand it completely. But a lot of these places do have open urinals, and I don't know if I feel comfortable now with my daughter going into a space with men with open urinals. There's this man online that had this opinion. Yeah, and the men's still let me give you haven't been a filthy. Are they?
Starting point is 00:50:00 Oh, I don't know. Some of the stories about the women's as well. I don't know. A question for the girl dads, when you're out in public and your daughter has to go to the bathroom, which restroom do you take her to if there's not a general neutral restroom? Today, I took her into the women's restroom. I knocked on the door. I said, hey, I'm a male.
Starting point is 00:50:16 I'm taking my daughter in. She has to go to the bathroom. And there's nobody in there. And when I was in there, somebody walked in and I just very clearly said, hey, just wanted to give you heads up. I'm taking my daughter to use the restroom. We'll be out in a minute. And I think that is the better route than taking her to the male restroom. Which is really interesting because all of the comments,
Starting point is 00:50:34 Underneath, majority with thousands and thousands of likes were women saying, if you're a man taking your young daughter to the bathroom and you openly state that and it's clear what you're doing, I would prefer you to come into the women's bathroom than to take her into the men's. Yeah, I find that so hard to believe. But it is. I've looked at the comments. And you know what?
Starting point is 00:50:54 Speaking from my perspective, I don't have a daughter, so I can't really say. But if I did, I would feel, as a man, very uncomfortable going, I'm coming into the woman. toilets because I've got a daughter, you know? Like, I would feel very uncomfortable doing that. Would you feel uncomfortable? I would never. But I guess it's like, isn't it better for you to feel uncomfortable than make your daughter feel uncomfortable being in the men's toilets?
Starting point is 00:51:17 But I would just make sure that I would go into the men's toilets and make sure, if there was a urinal situation, quite often there's not, you know, as well. Really? I thought all men's toilets in urinals. I mean, if it was, I'm just strange. They might not be being used, but I think they're always there. Yeah, yeah. I would make sure that if I was going in there, I would shield her eyes or take her away
Starting point is 00:51:33 from that area. But then in the time that it takes her to her at the bathroom and then she's all finished and she comes out, that situation could have changed then. You could have a bunch of lads who have piled in midway through. I just don't see the issue. Maybe there is more of an issue. I don't have a girl, so I don't know.
Starting point is 00:51:49 I mean, I've never really even thought about it. I always took my daughter to the boy's bathroom and I think then she obviously would have got to an age where she's going to the woman's on her own, but then when I think about it, she got locked in a toilet once and she freaked out and she had this period where the door always had to be open or I had to be in there with her. And I never actually even once thought
Starting point is 00:52:08 to just go, hey ladies, can I bring my daughter in here? And it just seems like such an obvious thing now, because women are going to be like, of course, bring her in. Oh yeah, I think so. I think majority will. I would be fine if I was in the female bathroom and there was a dad that was obviously like trying to be like, hi everybody, I'm just trying to take my daughter to the bathroom. That would, I wouldn't feel uncomfortable. I'm just speaking as from my perspective, as a man, I would feel very uncomfortable and I wouldn't want to put a woman in a position where she would feel uncomfortable. And I feel like if I went in there and I, everybody that was in there at the time, and I said it's okay and they're all like, all good,
Starting point is 00:52:38 what's the chances of another woman coming in and then not being okay with it? You know, like, so I would always just never do it. I wouldn't. This is my opinion. There's a lot of people texting through on this. Someone asked you, what about after swimming? I got two girls and the family rooms are often full. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:54 You know what your daughter's just stripping off in the men? No, you don't. A lot of dads with daughters and the, obviously, the situation that sometimes arises that could be a little awkward about which bathroom you used. I know, and I was thinking about it the other way around. If I had a son, I would still go to the female's bathroom. I wouldn't go to the males, which is funny in itself, right?
Starting point is 00:53:11 Until a certain name? I would seem to agree with that, though. Yeah, yeah. Isn't that kind of sad, you know, the fact that we're but I guess it's because women's toilets don't, they're all closed cubicles every single time, whereas in the men's toilet, I thought majority of the time had urinals and, you know, people could just
Starting point is 00:53:27 stand there with, you know, nude. Yeah, and as I was saying before, I would feel uncomfortable going into the woman's bathroom with my daughter. But the thing is the reason I'm saying that is because I think I wouldn't want to put anybody in a position where they're like, why is there a man in here? You know, but I'm obviously looking at the text
Starting point is 00:53:42 machine, everybody's for it. But in turn, at a certain age, you're now making your daughter feel uncomfortable going to the bathroom in a male bathroom. Absolutely, absolutely. Okay, let's go to the phones. Leah, good morning. Good morning. Happy Friday, Leah. What are your thoughts on this? Give me your opinion.
Starting point is 00:54:00 From a psychological point of view, I think we've made it really hard as a society for men to actually change their children. Yes. You know, if we want to see the parents, not just babysitters, but without family rooms, most men's bathrooms don't actually have change tables. Yes. So again, we've already put that barrier in place. But when they get older, I feel like us, especially women, start to think of it as, okay, well, what's best for the child as opposed to what's going to make. me more uncomfortable and I feel like we're more I don't know open to putting the child first as opposed to our needs than totally get what you're saying around not wanting to make the
Starting point is 00:54:40 women feel uncomfortable but I guess it's what makes the child feel more comfortable as opposed to us feel uncomfortable yeah and I think a lot of women thank you so much Leah so smart understand that I think a lot of women would sit there and go there's a dad just trying to look out for his little girl and make sure she's okay I would have to announce that I'm going in there though. Yeah, of course you would. Like, I just feel awkward about doing that for some reason. I just do.
Starting point is 00:55:04 You would like to think better of people, right? But then someone was talking about how they always make sure their men's are all empty. Then they'll put their daughter inside and stay in guard. But then somebody will come through to use and they go, hey, can just give us a couple of minutes? My daughter's just in there. And they're like, this is the men. It's like, guys, man, just chill out. It's a dad trying to create a safe environment for his daughter.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Yeah, let's go to Russell. Russell, what are your thoughts in this situation? I've been in a few ones with my little girls So even last week We went to go to the toilet Went into a club room To take her in And I think that I'm asking a lady
Starting point is 00:55:42 If she could take her into the toilets Because there was no unisex toilets But yeah Yeah It's a bit of shop I mean it's nice that you trusted this woman But in the end you had to trust your child with a stranger Because you were so uncomfortable
Starting point is 00:55:56 on the way that there was no place for you to help your daughter out, which is tough for guys. It really is tough for good dads out there, just trying to do the right thing and be respectful and also look after their kids. Thanks for us. Well, okay, what's the phrasing then, Meg? If dads want to, I guess, declare
Starting point is 00:56:15 that they're about to enter a woman's bathroom with their daughter. What do you think the... Yeah, it's a busy mall. There's obviously people in there. You open the daughter the women's bathroom. How do we front foot it very quickly? In a respectful way. Hi, everyone.
Starting point is 00:56:26 I'm just a dad here trying to take my daughter to the bathroom, just want to let you know we're coming in now. And if I heard the man say that, I'd be like, absolutely. So we don't have to say, is it all right if we come in now? I mean, you could, but then you have to see him, wait for every answer. There's a great somebody else Athena who said, I feel like any woman would prefer a dad to take his daughter into the women's. I think it's a woman, I wouldn't feel uncomfortable with a man bringing her in there
Starting point is 00:56:47 because I'd rather a little girl feel safe. And then the dad, I think, has to be in the cubicle with her, because if the dad's just standing there by the sink with his arms forward, Oh, yeah, no, no, no, no, because then it just looks like you're standing there. That's a confronting thing for a woman to just walk into. I think you need to be, definitely the rule is announce you're going in there, at least ask. Stay with your pet the whole time. And then go in to the cubicle, no standing outside.
Starting point is 00:57:08 And then announce when you're leaving the cubicle. Yeah, yeah. And try to go to a cubicle that's not right next to someone that's being used. I think that's another case. Oh, that's just a general rule. That's for everyone. It's so odd if there's a whole row of entities, you go to the one that's taken. Don't do that.
Starting point is 00:57:22 Right, I'm coming in here. How you going? Clint Meg and Dan Stinky B. The Edge. The Edge's easy money Here's your shot at $10,000. All right, 10 answers
Starting point is 00:57:33 in 30 seconds. Starting with the letter that Meg gives you. If you can get it done, the cash is yours, you can pass, but no repeated answers. Good morning, Yelandi. Hi. Hi.
Starting point is 00:57:43 Okay, here we go. Your letter this morning is L. Hopefully not for loser. No, no, no, no, definitely not for loser. No, no, no. Let's not even say that word. Yeah, true. My man.
Starting point is 00:57:53 Okay. Okay, Yulanda, here we go. Give me something you can wear. You can wear leggings. An occupation. Occupation. A limbo, a librarian. A drink.
Starting point is 00:58:13 Long Island iced tea. Something you'd find in the garden. Lillies. A Broadway musical. A Broadway musical? Yes. But. A active wear brand.
Starting point is 00:58:26 Lulu lemon. A Harry style song. You struggle, struggled, and as soon as we asked you for a cocktail, you were like, Long Islander, no, no, I see. Yeah, yeah. There was a real cough and splutter at the start, if I'm honest. But then you got going. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:58:43 Oh, wow. The nerve. Thanks, Yolande. Thanks, Yulandi. Anyone else feel like a Long Island ice tea now? Well, after the couple of showings this morning with easy money, I dare I say it, Clinton. Yes.
Starting point is 00:58:54 My goodness. All right, next on the show, we get to a brand new truth booth. No, I know. And this, I will say this, Meg, the truth booth today. It is juicy. There's a lot of tea spilled. Okay. Yeah, it's...
Starting point is 00:59:09 You don't want to miss this one? It's so interesting to me that people would sit on a secret for a long, long time, and then just randomly out of the blue on a Friday, decide to clear their conscience. I know, but with the voice discussion. Yeah, the power of the voice. I don't know if we've ever had a truth booth without the voice to sky. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:24 why would you, unless everyone knew the secret now? That's the thing, isn't it? Actually, there was that American dude that stole a whole lot of money out of ATMs, but it was like 30 years ago, so the statute of limitations had passed. I wasn't there for that one. Did he not use the voice disguises? No, I'm good on him. If you've got a secret, you've been sitting on,
Starting point is 00:59:44 and it's time to finally clear your conscience. Join us in the truth booth. Good morning, Janie. Hi, Janie. Morena. Okay, confirmed your voices. disguised because I know that's probably nerve-wracking. Janie, what is this
Starting point is 01:00:01 truth bomb that you need to get off your chest? For a couple of months, I've been having an affair on my husband, and they're the parent of my kids' school friend. Whoa.
Starting point is 01:00:16 Right, so there's a lot to unpack there straight away, isn't there? You've got an invested interest with kids being friends. So you're seeing, yeah, them quite often. Did you know this person a lot beforehand? No, we've seen. started seeing each other in group situations over summer. My daughter just turned five and started school at the end of last year. And so we thought to get to know the parents, we've just created this group.
Starting point is 01:00:41 And it was just kind of friendly to begin with. And we have a group chat going. And then they messaged me on the side about something funny that had come up in the group chat. and we just kind of kept going from there. What are we talking? You say you kept going from there. What are we talking? Are we talking a bit of sexual action?
Starting point is 01:01:04 Or we just talking and just talking? Yeah, what constitutes an affair in your mind? Because it's different in everybody's. Are you sleeping together? Yeah. Yes, we are. For me, it was just kind of friendly banter. I knew I had a connection with them.
Starting point is 01:01:19 I guess the big bomb here is the person I'm having an affair with is a woman. Oh, wow. Okay, so the fear's not even the bomb. Oh. No. The bomb is actually the... It's a mum.
Starting point is 01:01:35 Yes, which is why I'm extremely confused and really don't know what to do. And what's your relationship like with your husband? Is it good? Yeah, we were great. This is definitely not something that I was thinking out. And it was just such a shock. to myself because obviously just hanging out with another mum to start with is nothing
Starting point is 01:01:59 unusual but I just had this connection with her that I couldn't quite understand and then one day we were at each other's house because we both stay-at-home parents and yeah we just moved to the next stage so previously not out as bisexual at all have you ever been with women before no I've never been she had been an her earlier 20s before she'd met her husband. Oh, whoa. Okay, so you guys are both
Starting point is 01:02:31 in marriages with men but hooking up with each other. There's something in itself, isn't it? There's a lot of bonds in this. A lot of questions. If you've got one, 3, 3, 4-3 on the text, we'll take a quick break and then we'll come back. More from Janie, fake name in the truth booth.
Starting point is 01:02:48 The Truth Booth. Janie, fake name is in the truth booth this morning. she just admitted to us that she's been having an affair. Her husband doesn't know about it. The bomb, I guess, is that it's actually with a mum of one of her friend's kids and is unlike any situation she's found herself in before. Who made the first move? Because, like, can you talk us through that day?
Starting point is 01:03:10 You went over to your house, you say. What happened? So did she come in for a kiss? Perfect. Okay, yeah. If you're comfortable sharing, it sounds like Dan's getting really excited by the idea. He wants to know all the ins and outs now that he knows it's a woman. But he wasn't asking any of these questions when he thought it was a dude.
Starting point is 01:03:26 No, I want credibility here. I just want to know the ins and outs of how it started. Yeah, she had invited me over for coffee. And we were just in the kitchen laughing. It just feels really comfortable with her. And we're standing really close. And she kind of leaned in closer and gave me the opportunity to pull away. And I didn't want to.
Starting point is 01:03:49 Yeah. It's like you must have felt some sort of connection outside because you don't just go from having coffee and laughing to kissing. There is definitely flirty eyes before that. In the end, an affair is a bad thing to do. None of us here are going to support affairs or say that we support you on that. But have you ever wondered if you're gay? I haven't felt this kind of feeling.
Starting point is 01:04:16 There is really something different here, which is the thing that's really confusing me. Wait, okay, so how long has the affair been going for? And are you still secretly seeing this woman? We met at the start of the year just the afternoon, new year. So it's been a few months, and we've been sleeping together for the past, I could say, months. What would your husband think? Well, it's an affair.
Starting point is 01:04:42 Just because it's a woman, no, just because it's a woman, we can't sit there and just... Yeah, but not everyone walks away from affairs. No, no, no, no, right. I thought you guys would just say it because it's a bit of fun. Oh, God, no, no, no. I just like genuinely like it. Because I think, put it this way, Janie, if I found out my wife was having an affair with a woman or a man,
Starting point is 01:05:01 I would still try to work at the relationship. Do you think he's that type of person? Is that what you want? I would love nothing more than to just be able to talk to him about it because he's also my best friend, right? It's an interesting one, though, like, it mostly depends on the relationship about whether it hits, it's different or not, finding out your partner's cheater on you with the same sex or the opposite sex?
Starting point is 01:05:22 Yeah, I just need to make a decision. Well, I would say if I'm just being very blatantly honest with you, you need to tell your husband. I think if you've had an affair, no matter who it's with, it's an affair. And if it was the other way around and he was cheating on you with a man, I'd be telling him he needed to tell you. So it's only fear either way. You need to tell him. It's going to eat you up inside and it's not fear to him.
Starting point is 01:05:44 But then you need to maybe do some soul searching on what this means. and what she means to you. And also I think the text machine as well, Meg, like you say that, a lot of people are saying the same thing you need to come clean. Yeah. And at least admit it and then go out. Some people are saying, or take it to the grave.
Starting point is 01:06:00 Okay. So you're going to wear it on your conscience forever? You can do what you want. Or clear it now. Do you mind not me asking how old you are, Janie? I'm 35. I know we're sort of wrapping this up, but Janie, is it more?
Starting point is 01:06:13 Now you're finding yourself attracted to woman or you're only attracted to this woman. Yeah. it's more so of her, but I am interested in the exploration. Now it's opened up. You know, you're like, wow, this is a general. My mind's been exploding. Yeah. Women would do that to you.
Starting point is 01:06:33 Yeah. Thanks, Janie. I appreciate it. Thank you. Thanks for being honest. God, lots to uncover there, really. You can keep TCS 3343. We can pass on feedback.
Starting point is 01:06:44 But, I mean, I guess can you relate? Have you ever... Are you somebody that came out of the closet late in life? As I mentioned, I've known quite a few people there after divorces in their 50s and 60s. Yeah, they're quite common maybe around that time, but in the mid-30s and stuff, when you're maybe less common, right?
Starting point is 01:07:02 Yeah, absolutely. What's the call, 0-800-Eage? Did you come out the closet later in life? Did you realise it, always knew it, or discovered it? All right, we want to talk about if you've been in a situation where you have come out later in life, where that was something you always had an inkling for,
Starting point is 01:07:17 but we're too afraid and then you get to a certain point you're like stuff it. Or if you had an awakening and didn't realize that something was off until you met the right person. Which has to be better, right? Because if you have some awakening and then you go on and live your life. But if you've been living, I guess, a lie for 40 years, that's got to be rough.
Starting point is 01:07:35 Tough, hey. True. I don't know how people do that. Like, that would take a lot of, unless self-control and, like, guardedness to do that. Unless you're on a sliding scale and you always could have gone either way. You just happen to marry a guy or marry a woman and then you divorce and then you go the other way. But you hear about these people, eh, that have been, like you say,
Starting point is 01:07:53 being together, they've had kids, you know, like 40 years and then they come out of the closet and they're like 60s. It's got to be interesting as a kid if your mum or dad, when they split. Would you care? I don't think I'd care. No, it'd just be an interesting thing to get your head around. If that's all you've ever seen growing up. And you'd probably see, you'd be like, that explains a lot. You know, you'd see the signs.
Starting point is 01:08:13 Yeah. Well, Monique's been in this situation. Your dad came out later in life. Yes, he did. Good morning, guys, by the way. Morning, Monique. Is this Monique Jigsaw, Monique? This is Monique coming down hopefully next week.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Oh, Monique, where were you yesterday? What the hell? Okay, Monique was the one who said that she can pick up a box of puzzle pieces, and if you pull a few out, she can just hold it and tell you how many are missing. Okay. All right, so you're still on for your flex factor? Oh, yeah, I'm there. Okay.
Starting point is 01:08:46 Yeah, okay, right. So that's a whole completely other thing. Let's park that for now. You're great at picking up pigs, jigsaws and how many. Yeah, but so when, what age was your dad when he came out of the closet? Okay, so my mum and dad got together quite young. They parted at age 22. My dad ended up in a pretty bad accident and he ended up in hospital.
Starting point is 01:09:07 And the nurse, which was a male that was actually looking after him, they ended up getting some feelings. And my dad is 74 years old now. they're still together. Oh my gosh. So he literally this man nursed him back to health. All he needed was a sponge bath. Yeah, was that?
Starting point is 01:09:22 Did you say he was quite young at that point? Or was it later in life in the accident? Yeah, so he was about 23 when the nurse and him met. My mum and him broke up at 22. Wow. And did they get together at that age and they're still together? Or was it later? They got together when my dad was 23.
Starting point is 01:09:40 That's incredible. And my dad is now 74. And they're still together. 50 year anniversary. That's an incredible. It was a sponge bath, wow. We don't know with that, for sure. Do you know what it was?
Starting point is 01:09:52 Does he still talk about the sponge bath? I think so, but I don't really want to. Yeah, I've got to be. To his daughter. That's incredible. Wow. We'll be seeing you next week, Monique. Oh, yeah, I'll be there.
Starting point is 01:10:07 Bring you that along. Okay. No, hey, appreciate the honesty. We'll send you a double-pass to a must-see movie. They will kill you. Who will be the offering tonight since Simmer's next. Thursday, so enjoy that one, Monique. Thanks for our calling.
Starting point is 01:10:18 She better show up next week or I'll be angry with Monique. Oh, what will you do, Dan? What will you do? I don't know. I probably won't do anything. No, honestly. Legally, I can't. But I'll be angry. Yeah, that's an interesting story. Yeah, wow. I mean, good for him. I mean, there's a lot of people that are saying that parents,
Starting point is 01:10:33 it's a common thing by the looks of it, where their parents are either their mum has come out as lesbian or dad. Yeah, they stay for the kids, and then once the kids are old enough and they move out, one of them goes on and lives their honest. Yeah. Truest self-ass. And isn't that sad as well that they,
Starting point is 01:10:45 that these people have obviously stayed together for the kids and lived this life. I mean, you can have a happy life. The kids can be happy without their parents breaking up. Also, do you think it's easier when someone splits with you if they are now, have a complete like different sexual orientation turns of what they're into? You go, okay, well,
Starting point is 01:11:02 it wasn't me, it was more about them. I definitely think there's more of an ease to it, but there's no doubt that you're still heartbroken. If your partner, like, then goes to love somebody else, because then you wonder if they ever loved you or really had that connection with you or really enjoyed being intimate with you the whole time. I'd just worry if this was Hannah, I'd just worry I'd turn her to women, you know?
Starting point is 01:11:21 Like, I was, she'd be like, God, tease her, never again. I was that bad. Holy shit, you made it the whole way through. If you want more, find them on Instagram at Edge Breakfast. See you tomorrow. And then if that's not enough, check out our only fans, podcasts, that is.
