Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a podcast from Rover. Good morning's hit harder. It's Breaky. It is bang on 6 o'clock Friday. Happy Friday. And this is our... Let me just double check. Oh no, we got one more full week next week
Starting point is 00:00:18 and then long weekend, short week. With Anzac. Yeah, of course. Got another one. It gets Monday eyes, isn't it? Yeah, so next Friday will be a bloody goody. But then you've got to make the most of that, me, because then it's like a long haul.
Starting point is 00:00:30 No, we get matriki, but that's July? Yeah. Oh, in Kings, Birthday, Kings 5th, June? Oh, that's not bad. Oh, sure, okay, there's quite a few. Maybe it's July to October. It feels like this long winter.
Starting point is 00:00:41 I just go stuff myself. Yeah, you're good. Yeah, good. Okay, do we, I know, we said we felt lucky yesterday. We said we felt lucky the day before that. Are we actually feeling lucky today with the fuel let wheel? Oh, yeah, true. Wouldn't it be great to give away 5K on a Friday?
Starting point is 00:00:54 Got it would be good going until we get, especially since Stan, didn't you say fuel will be going up next week? Well, it's imminent at some point. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Imminent. It's going to go up before it goes down, put it that way. Five. I don't think it's going down for a very long time. So look, let's see if we can give away 5K today.
Starting point is 00:01:13 Two chances. Give it a quick little spin now and just see what your luck's like then. Go, all right. A little spin. I want it to land on Mazda. I would want it to land on $5,000, but now. Oh. Oh.
Starting point is 00:01:30 No. Clint, Megan, Dan. Oh, my gosh. to jump into your 6am throwback, us versus the playlist. Before Dan knew what was in the playlist, he was like, oh, it's Victoria Beckham's birthday. Yeah. Could play some Spice Girls. Well, the playlist beat you to it.
Starting point is 00:01:44 It was already loaded in. Do you think they knew this? Do you think they knew, surely not that they knew it was going to be Victoria Beckham's birthday. Yeah, I think it's just a coincidence. I think, yeah, I don't think that that could have their jobs. No. Victoria. Oh, well, do you think so?
Starting point is 00:01:59 I don't think that researching who's having birthdays for a 6 a.m. And they're not tallied us. Yeah. Well, I'm going to be the only person on the show that thinks that our middle management team are good at their jobs. No, it's kind of like when you make like a really funny pun, but you didn't know you were doing it. And someone goes, ah, see what you did there? And then you laugh along and you go, oh my God, I had no idea I did that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:18 I do that often Clint on that show. Yeah. That's nine times out of ten for you, isn't it? They just claim everyone's like, oh, good one. God, she's good. Somebody explained it to me off here. Victoria, now she would be the most famous spice girl now, eh? post Spice Girls height.
Starting point is 00:02:35 Now she's married to David. She's got her massive fashion empire. And makeup. She does great makeup. The harder thing to do is actually choose second famous. Second most famous. I think Scarry Spice, Marl B.
Starting point is 00:02:47 Oh, you think I would have gone Jerry. Really? What is Jerry doing? She's married to Christian Horner from Formula One. Oh, okay, so in your circle. And you still hear sporty Spice doing stuff. She's still doing music and things. where a scary spice was like a judge on those reality TV shows and stuff
Starting point is 00:03:04 or those like X Factor type things but she hasn't been doing anything for a while I will say we did interview was at Mal B Sporty Spice is that her? Yeah last year I think you're while you're on maternity leave me She was really lovely She was really nice What did you guys talk to her about?
Starting point is 00:03:20 She had a new song or something did she? Yeah she had new music Which we discussed Because that was part of the interview But just talking to her about I guess being famous at the time that she was because remember even Victoria Beckham in the documentary because that was around the time
Starting point is 00:03:36 that we were speaking to Mel, she had to stand on scales to see if she'd lost the baby weight like three months after she'd given birth on a talk show and Mel was like, yeah, we were literally treated like animals but because no one had gone before us to set some sort of standard. She said, we just got treated however the paparazzi wanted to treat us. I remember that moment.
Starting point is 00:03:58 And they thought that was normal, eh? They just sort of went with it because I was like, they're like, oh no, don't bring up the scales, guys. Yeah. Absolutely madness. That's crazy to think that you could get away with that. So I think we're going to play some spice girls. Do we play the one that's in the playlist?
Starting point is 00:04:12 Well, it feels like we just played it underneath our entire chat. I reckon we play... It girl. Oh. I was going to say another spice girls track. Oh, okay. Stop right now. What's that one?
Starting point is 00:04:24 Okay, we'll put some... I always have Jason Roodlo there is a really, to go just in case. I think I have a spice girl son to do. Okay. All right, how about this? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:35 Uh-uh, uh-uh-uh-uh. Happy birthday. I wonder if her son's gonna wish her happy birthday probably not, probably not. How old are you any shares? $46. Huh?
Starting point is 00:04:46 52. I don't know. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. It's early. We get away with stuff. All righty. For coffee catch-up, we always start the show
Starting point is 00:04:55 with a little bit of a whip around. Would you guys like to play Who is the asshole? You, Clint. I'm going to guess you. Okay. Is that the how it works? I'm not actually in the running for this one.
Starting point is 00:05:06 No, my mate, Kishin, who we've been made since we were five years old. He's got a little boy and I got a boy and they're almost the exact same age and they're best friends. So amazing. I've never met Kishin. I don't think I have. We're not on Kishin? No. Oh, he's so fun.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Yeah. And he, very much like Meg, has this, I guess in terms of if you, if you, I broke down the type of person you were and you said, all right, in terms of how well you provide and how good of a friend you are and empathetic. And then it comes to like protection. His level, like Meg's, is like 100 out of 100. Protection over their friends and their family.
Starting point is 00:05:41 No one's allowed to do anything that will wrong them. He almost, you guys should be Italian. Yeah, it's something you see read so quickly if somebody says something about your friend or family. And is he one of those people that like, if he'd cross him, you're dead to him after that? Or no. Or he's willing to forgive.
Starting point is 00:05:56 Yeah, yeah. but I mean if you do something to his family or friends, he's not going to just go, I'll just let it go. What is he done? He was looking after my boy because his son and my son having a play date, and he went out to Archie Brothers, which is like an arcade, like time zone type thing in Auckland. And my son's having a great time. It says like Disneyland.
Starting point is 00:06:15 This is his happy place. He loves it, eh? But my friend noticed and I wasn't there that Thai, my son was quite sad. And so he went over to him and he's like, hey, buddy, like what's going on? And he's like, nothing, nothing. because my son will push it down. And then he goes, no, no, what happened? And he goes, oh, that man told me off.
Starting point is 00:06:33 And he goes, what did he say? Yeah. And he said, he told me to F off. A growing man. A grown man told my son to F off. And so my friend goes, which one? Yes, Kish. I was like, no, he did it.
Starting point is 00:06:48 And he goes, and then Dalai, points him out. So then. Snitch. So Kish goes straight over to him. And he goes, did you just tell my son to F off? not his son but I guess in the scenario. He said he said he said my son to Eiff off and he goes yeah, because he was like banging into me.
Starting point is 00:07:03 He kept banging into me. And as Kishen's telling me this, I'm going, that doesn't sound like my son. Like he's not a real aggressive, like boy. And then Kishen goes, you're on the effing bumper cars. Oh my God, that's the whole point. The clues in the name. And the guy goes, yeah, well I've got a bad neck.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Then you don't go in them! And Kish is like, what the fan? And just is like at this guy, like, I'm arguing with an idiot. Like, what is going on? Sticking up at a tie. Now he'll know that nobody will, you know. Yeah. Did the guy believe it was his son?
Starting point is 00:07:40 Because this is a Kishin Indian. Yeah. He would be like, right. Someone's lying here. So how are you getting caught up in the details, man? I'm telling my son to get it. I mean, who goes on a bumper car if you've got a bad, deck, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:07:56 He didn't see it. I think there's a sign. And he tells kids to F off because they're banging into them. I was like, it's kind of the only reason you're on there. Yeah. Anyway, it is nice when you know that people who are looking after your kids are going to fight for them in the same way. Oh, I love that. That is, I want to meet him now.
Starting point is 00:08:12 You want to eat cash? Kitchen, yeah. I think in that situation, I would just go, hey, mate, I would have walked off and just said to tie. Some people are just very rude and they, right, right, whatever. I just said you want a knuckle sandwich? Yeah. I seem to like the fighting approach now. I would just say that really loud.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Some people are idiots. And I looked that way at the man, I hope that he heard it. Should we get into first call of the day next? Let's do it. Yeah, we'll see you out of a voucher to go spend in store at the cinemas. Yes, our favourite store is a cinema. We all have it. A little bit of a force of habit from an old price.
Starting point is 00:08:49 Yes. Yeah, if you want to go to the movies, not cheat these days. We'll send you along for free to our muscle. chopping, Dan? Yeah, at the cinema. Yeah, we'll go to the cinema. Clint, Megan Dan. Lesh goal.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Noa Khan, the Great Divide. He's got a new album out next Friday. And also, tickets go on sale for when he's here in October, 1 o'clock this afternoon. So he's doing two Spark Arena shows. He made so many ticket sales with pre-sales. He's put on a second Spark Arena show. Good on him. October 9th and 10th.
Starting point is 00:09:18 So it's going to be a busy month at Spark Arena. Because he's got four women to go through. more with Olivia Dean, Zara Larson, who are the other two? Hillary Duff and Lily Ellen. Machine Gun Kelly coming on the plane right the second in the sky somewhere. Yeah, Spark Arena tomorrow night.
Starting point is 00:09:35 How excited Clint is your favourite man. I know, and hey, can I also just quickly add, Machine Gun Kelly is known to not be too big or too cool. So if you're going out this weekend, look out for him. He does go and turn up at bars. He did it all through Ozzy. And he likes to do DJ sets, so he might be somewhere around Oakland this weekend. I like bars.
Starting point is 00:09:52 You like bars? Yeah. I just think we've got so much in common. First call of the day. First call of the day. Good morning. Healy? Haley.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Haley. It's Haley. It's been misspelt by our producer. Our producer is so bad at spelling. He spelled your name. He spelt it phonetically. Like, hey, A-G-Y. And then Lee, L-E.
Starting point is 00:10:14 So I was like, he? That's funny. Everyone at primary school, always used to be like, hey, hey, hey, Lee. I'm like, ah, ha. Yeah. When I don't know what Val to use, I just whack one in.
Starting point is 00:10:24 Yeah. I mean, there will be someone out there, some person that's got spelt like that. Haley? Yeah, some like white trash person. Oh. You're like, thanks for that, Mom. I'm going to be, I tell him to be about a spell my name forever.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Lucky I'm from the upper class of Levinne, eh? Yes, exactly. How was Levin this morning? Oh, fabulous, you know? You know what, Levin... I once hitchhiked through Levin for work when I first started this job. There was a thing where I had to stop there.
Starting point is 00:10:51 And someone said to me, person said don't stick around here too long. My goodness me, you might get mugged. I bought my Christmas tree from Levin. Yeah, it seemed lovely when I was there. Yeah, it's charming. Oh, hell of a place to party, too. Could you tell everyone your party trick, Haley?
Starting point is 00:11:07 Yeah, so I'm a big, big girl. I can put an R2D like a drink in my boobs and fig from the drink. Brilliant. With no hands, your hands free. You wearing a brared though, right? Yep, hands free. Oh, yeah. It's not completely
Starting point is 00:11:22 Look, I'm saying as a fellow big boob girl It'd be, I mean, it's very impressive to do it But if you could do it, no, bra. Holy, holy. Yeah, no. How often they're doing that on like a weekly basis there again? Oh, no, I'm in the cities now. This is like a yearly occurrence.
Starting point is 00:11:39 Oh, okay, once a year, they're like, oh, like, you're not my kind of girl, Haley. Yeah, like an eclipse, they're like, Haley's doing it! Everyone, come, Hayley's doing it. To be honest, if Haley was in my friend's group, I'd be asking you to do it every time we're drinking. Show them the hands free thing. Just fill it just once. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:54 They do come in handy at times to have, to be like extra hands or pockets. Do you know why? I used to work in a bar and honestly, even to this day, stacking up glasses along my arm because there's obviously more surface area. Yeah. You can set more glasses up around the booms, wrap it around and you, yeah, more hands like work, almost. I love you, Hayley. You're funny.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Yeah. She's good as well. Do you think there are more pros? You're not doing what you got there. You have to being a big-boobed girl. More pros or cons? I think cons. What do you think, Haley? Absolute cons.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Yeah. Absolute cons. Yeah. They're annoying. They get in the way. They ruin most, like, most outfits in the way of, like, if it fits you in the waist, it's not going to fit you in the boobs. You have to buy bras that are really expensive.
Starting point is 00:12:38 I don't understand why ours are so expensive to buy and try and find them. You can drink hands free, though. Swings in roundabouts. Every cloud. So, yeah. That could be a multi-fitted incumbent. Absolutely. The outrageously funny teen comedy
Starting point is 00:12:54 The Debs in cinemas now. Send you a double pass, Haley, for your time. Awesome. Good on you, Haley. Thanks, Haley. A little bit of Haley. Spout with an A, unorthodox. Haley, to me, is the exact person that after talking to her,
Starting point is 00:13:05 I might understand why she listens to us. Like, same... She's our person. She's our people. Yeah. You're good on you, Haley. We'll take anyone, though. Oh.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Yeah. Yeah, like, if that's your first time listening to us, that's fine. Meg's got Scandal headlines We'll get you next And then a little new music Friday as well Coming up before 7 Yeah, it's a good one
Starting point is 00:13:25 Because there's some crappers in there Okay, right I think so well You could be hearing your new favourite song For the very first time in 10 minutes Could be That's exciting Maybe not though
Starting point is 00:13:35 The Clint Meg and Dan podcast Clint Meg and Dan's Scandal Scandal's all thanks to the blues Friday night, Fun against the Highlanders at Eden Park Rally the crew We get along Shannon Elizabeth
Starting point is 00:13:48 from the 2000s American Pie movies who played Nadia. Thank you, Nadia. You know, if you ever had a chance with Nadia, this is it. What am I supposed to do, Kev? Seducer. She has joined the Not Safe for Work platform, only fans at 52 years old. God, is she 52? That makes me feel old. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:11 Because she was at high. She played a high school person in that movie. Yes, she did. So she must have been a lot older then, because we were watching it when we're in high school. Yeah, true. 50s? We're way off.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Some of us, right? We're way off. Way, way off. You're not so much. Whatever. And Robert De Niro, who has worked with Al Pacino, Leonardo DiCaprio, Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Jane Fonda and Robin Williams, just the name of you, has said that Ariana Grande is probably the single-handedly most talented screen partner he has ever shared the screen with
Starting point is 00:14:41 after filming the latest Meet the Fokkers. Wow, that's a high praise from De Niro. Yep. She should put that on her bio. Isn't that amazing? Can you imagine her? Like, she will drop to the floor. I saw her yesterday in the trailer,
Starting point is 00:14:55 and I thought she was doing a cameo. I forget that she's now an actor. Well, she even started out on Disney. She's an incredible actor, actually, to be fair. She did the opposite of what Zendaya did. They both started out as singers, and then Ariana stayed the singer, and then went back to Act Dean,
Starting point is 00:15:09 and then, you know, Zendaya stopped singing, went to acting, and we don't know if she'll go back. She's got the expert. 942. The Edge. The Edge. Clint Meg and Dan. Could I also just quickly bounce back?
Starting point is 00:15:19 I thought it was really cool that he said Most talented screen partner, not woman. I think that's just little things like that. Yeah, he's an amazing man, that guy. Sad to Ben Stiller, though. He's always been Stiller on that movie for like three years. I don't think Stiller would mind. It probably agrees, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:37 So it makes me want to see the movie, though. It looks good. Clint Megan Dan. SpinkyBee. Now, producer Nipia, joining us in studio because yesterday we got talking about what your cast is about you and at the end when we played a song, went to a break, Neeps goes, do you want to know what your cars say about you three?
Starting point is 00:15:54 And I was like, save it for tomorrow, let's do it on here. That's true. So is this what a car say about us or what we would be if we were a car? This is what you would be if you were a car. So you need to communicate a bit better. Yeah, yeah, exactly. So it's like if we were in the cars movie, where it makes the little blue Porsche.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Yeah, exactly. Like Lightning McQueen. So I've related you guys to one car each. And I'll start with Clinton. this morning. Clint, I've given you the Range Rover. Oh, God, yeah, I love a Range Rover.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Hold on. It's flashy and constantly receiving updates, but everyone knows it's just giving midlife crisis. Yes. Amen. Very good, me. Very much. Look super expensive and flashy,
Starting point is 00:16:36 but everyone knows it's the entry-level rich man car. He's try hard. High-maintenance, slightly cringe, and always trying to prove that he's still got it. Yeah, absolutely. No, that fits. Well, that is good.
Starting point is 00:16:52 No injunctions. Dan, I've given you the Hylux. Oh, manly. Oh, manly is a lot you have. That would be a shock to most. Why? Dan is reliable and he can always get us out of a sticky situation.
Starting point is 00:17:05 When we need a kicker on a break, we're out with Dan. Yeah, that's true. That's me and the Hylux. He's somehow still up and running despite years of poor decisions. Oh, that makes you sound like I'm a drug addict. He's loud, unfiltered, and what you see is what you get. When you see a Hylux, you know what you're going to get. Nice.
Starting point is 00:17:22 They think they're the boss on the roads, but everyone else knows that they aren't. I'll take that. I've got off pretty... It's very good. It's got free there. Meg, I've given you the Suzuki Swift. Okay. Classic.
Starting point is 00:17:36 You are popular across the entire nation and loved by many younger women. Oh, thank you. You're wholesome, unassuming, although you're the last person you want tailgating you home on your way home from work. You're like, who's that? You quite often forget basic functions such as indicating. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you'd never replace it, but sometimes you just have to explain it to people a couple times. It's all I can afford.
Starting point is 00:18:00 So that's what I think you would be if you guys were cars. Thanks so much, deep, yeah. Some compliments in there if you dig. A compliment sandwich, I like to call it. Thanks, thanks, thanks. Hey, your car could win you. $50,000 in fuel in 20 minutes. All you got to do is call us.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Give us your car, mate. We'll spin the wheel And if it comes up, you can be winning 50,000 bucks this morning. You are a Swift phone, actually. Me? Yeah, yeah, it's very. Clint, Megan Dan.
Starting point is 00:18:26 One, two, or three, four. New music Friday. Brand new. Oh, can turn at the bag, where we got it. Look, I was really excited this morning when I got up and started listening to new music
Starting point is 00:18:35 because I go through it before I come into work to see what we'll play and what we won't. And I was like, oh my God, there's a new single from Ludacris. Oh, how a hell of a lot. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:18:45 Bring me back to the 2000s. Right,io. Definitely can't play it because there's a certain word said in it about maybe every 20 seconds that it's a word that I can't say, but he can say. Oh, like, ninjas. Yes, Clint. But he's allowed to say it, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:18:59 I guess we can't play it still because... I think if he maybe said it once and possibly like just find a way to bleep it, but me and producer NEPia realized the whole song would just be a long bleep. So unfortunately, that one is not getting played. We do have the new song from Tyler and Zara Larson, Very much so leaning towards Tyler's style and not Zara's here.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Have a listen. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh. We feel like you can. Together, so it's probably... The expectation then is higher. Yeah. Yeah, it's very Tyler style than Zara's style.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Yeah. Zara hasn't put her signature on it, really, has she? No, not all yet. And Zane, Zane is another song he did Sideways, and now he's done side effects. I'm famous than he is. I agree. Maybe this album will do it.
Starting point is 00:20:15 I've thought that before without previous album. You're right. I want to like him and he's a big nerd, but he says some stupid shit in interviews. Remember when he said about Gigi Hadid that he didn't know if he ever loved her? I mean, keep that stuff to yourself. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:29 That's right. Lewis Capaldi has released a very classic, great song by Lewis Capaldi. It's called Stay Love. Everybody's leaving, come on stay. And when the road gets rose, don't give up on us. And they're saying. A lot of Lewis Capaldi songs to me all just sound the same.
Starting point is 00:21:02 But that one does seem different. I want to hear him do a different genre than what he does. Because he's got all the makings there. He's got great talent and its personality. I don't know, just like a little bit more upbeat pop. And that's instead of, yeah. I like to hear him on a hip-hop track. I think he needs to do a co-lab with someone like Eminem or someone like,
Starting point is 00:21:21 that where he's on it. Sheeran did that, like, rap album. Like, he did that album and he had a whole lot of co-labs on it, and he kind of changed it up. Maybe that's what... He's so funny and so talented. He's got the voice, everything. I agree. Nipes.
Starting point is 00:21:34 Yeah, Lewis Capaldi's, like, best mates with Sam Fender as well. So surely he could bleed into... Yeah, it's something a wee bit more pacey. Even folk. Falk. I think it's folk. And folk. Don't think you say the L. Demi Lvado.
Starting point is 00:21:49 I don't know about this song, guys. I mean, maybe it will relate to some people. I personally can't relate to wearing low-rise jeans. Are they coming back? Oh, jeezed. And she's singing about wearing her low-rise jeans in her and her see-through tops. Maybe Clint, you can relate a bit more than I can.
Starting point is 00:22:26 I think he's more likely to wear low-rise of all three of us. And a crop top, you know, the crop tops that are wearing out. Everything's been cropped now. Guys, if you're listening and you're going into wherever it is you shop, and then you go, what the heck's going on? That really, that's just it, man, you've got to get used to the crop now. Yeah, the genes are getting lower, the tops are getting high, a lot of more midriff.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Everyone, we're going to start working on midrifts, okay? So, I don't think anyone did it for me like last week, like Cody. I have one more I'm going to, when we go into, we're going to do this again at 8. There's one I actually thought that you guys might, like it's a country song that I'll play for you at 8 as well. some country. Yeah, me too. You can look forward to that, little tease.
Starting point is 00:23:08 God, you're a tease, aren't you? I have a little teeter. I have a little teeter. I have a little teary. Oh, God, don't. That gives it all. There's no teasing. You get to see everything. Golly, hell me. Far around.
Starting point is 00:23:17 Much of the imagination there, babe. Clint, me and Dan. It's going to be happening in about five or six minutes because everyone's always like, when do I go? It's time for Clint Megan Dan's. If you're someone like me and you love maths, you love stats, because they don't lie. There's no grey areas.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Is either right or it's wrong. Yeah, I wish. stats did lie sometimes, but they don't, unfortunately. They're very truthful. We have a winning wheel here in studio with a whole bunch of car brands on it. If your car brand isn't there, we will put it on the wheel if you call through. It's seven and eight. But lands on your car, you win $5,000 of free fuel.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Then it gets interesting. Because if you're the person that likes to risk it for the biscuit, you can spin again and risk that five grand. And if it comes up on your car twice, you win $50,000. Oh, I really hope that if we do get someone that wins the five, risk it from 50. I mean, that... Just because it would be so exciting.
Starting point is 00:24:11 It would be, but man, oh man, you'd have to be pretty rich to risk the 5K, wouldn't you? Well, yeah, you always just... I feel like you'd be somebody like Clint who just believes in your luck. You're a gambler. A gambler. Okay, so on the podcast, on the Overthinkers podcast,
Starting point is 00:24:24 we gave a few keywords on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday to get your, I guess, special foot in the door. Yeah, it gives you a fast track to get on here because I think that's the last track. hardest part getting through, right? Yeah, well, the hardest part is listening to our podcast, I think, Clint, I'm getting to the end of it.
Starting point is 00:24:42 Yeah. Yeah, if you've ever been to, like, a theme park and you can buy like a fast pass, you just skip the queue, it's kind of like that. If you've got the keyword for Tuesday's Overtinkers podcast, text it through to 3343. Absolutely, yeah. And then we'll fast track you on here next. Yeah, there was three keywords this week.
Starting point is 00:24:57 It's the Tuesday one. And if you were going, wait, wait, wait, wait, we can do this every week because then if you want to get the keyword, then you can listen next week to the podcast. Yeah. You can just text podcast actually to three. 3343. I'll send you the link. But if you want to know who the luckiest is when it comes to spinning the wheel, we behind
Starting point is 00:25:12 the scenes have been spinning the wheel to see how many times we had to spin it for it to come up and land on the 5,000. Dan went first and eventually got it after 34 spins of the wheel. Which statistically is even hard to do considering you got a 1 in 16
Starting point is 00:25:29 chance. Yeah, it took me forever. Meg then went and she managed to spin up the 5,000 after 20,000. 24 spins of the bill. 21. Sorry, Meg. Thank you very much, 21. Much better than 34.
Starting point is 00:25:42 But wait for her. Clint spun, didn't he? Yeah, he did, Dan. Yeah. And I spun up $5,000 on my first spin. How does he do it? Honestly, the man is the luckiest man
Starting point is 00:25:55 I've ever met. But, Dan, here's the thing. Is that statistically, the chances of me now spinning up $5,000 again, is very unlikely to go two in a row, is you've spun 34 times and only got it once. So statistically, you should be able to spin it up twice every 32 spins,
Starting point is 00:26:14 so you are definitely due to win. Okay. Well, text through that keyword for the Tuesday podcast. We'll fast track you next. A lot of people are texting it already. Absolutely. Somebody texting the word mummy. That's not it.
Starting point is 00:26:27 If you want to call me mommy, that's fine. They're like, I don't know, but what might get meant attention? Money. Okay, we're going to play a 90 seconds. If you've got the keyword, text it through, 3343, we'll call you back and get you on air next. Clint Megan Dan, You've got the car? We've got the cash.
Starting point is 00:26:46 Fuel prices got you down? Clint Meg and Dan have the perfect pickup. It's time to spin the wheel. This is 50K fuel let. Good morning, all thanks to Novice Glass. Chip or crack on your windscreen. Notice it, notice it. We have 5,000 bucks for you.
Starting point is 00:27:00 If we spin up your car make right now, and then, depending on if you're feeling lucky, we'll see if we can upgrade your prize to $50,000 worth of fuel. A way to fast track, your way to getting through the phones because we know that it's a very, very difficult part and frustrating part. It's listening to our Overtinkers podcast. We'll give you a keyword every day
Starting point is 00:27:18 and we ask for Tuesday's keyword. What was that? Chivorn. Good morning. It was exhaust. Yes, she's a listener. It was. Here was a little girlfriend, pot if you missed it.
Starting point is 00:27:29 The key word is exhaust. Exhaust. Okay. Now are you talking about the exhaust on a car? Yes. Okay. Yeah, as opposed to... The exhaustedness of someone.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Oh, well, that would be exhausted? Mm. I don't say I'm exhausted. I know, you could say I exhaust. I exhaust. Oh, exhaust is good. Yeah. A bit of an inside.
Starting point is 00:27:49 Yeah, yeah. All right, Chavon, what do you drive? I drive a Mitsubishi, a cross. Okay, oh, a nice car. Okay, so Mitsubishi is on there. Let's see if we can spin up $5,000. Who would you like to spin for you this morning? Oh.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Have you heard before, Clint's. I'm really, you guys were talking about it before and the odds and all that. Oh, maybe she'll just go Dan. Yeah, do you know what? That's easy because I'm sitting right next to it. The last 34 spins, he's only got it once. So he is absolutely due to hit the 5,000.
Starting point is 00:28:22 Here we go, Chaborn. Absolutely. Here we go. $5,000 up for grabs. I'm going to do a hell of a spin here. Here we go. Okay, nice big one for a Friday. All right, we're off.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Good luck, Shaborn. That's a wheel shaker. Top, top, top, top. Top, that's how quick it's going at the moment. Okay. Now. Now. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:28:42 You're at the top. Bottom, top, bottom, slowing down top. Top, bottom. Well, that's almost too long of a spin, isn't it? It's all right. Bottom, top, bottom, top. My goodness, me, there's one hell of a spin. I don't know my own strength.
Starting point is 00:28:56 Bottom. Oh, we're still going. Sorry, George. I've almost broken the wheel. We've got some elevator music, Clint. Yeah, yeah. Here we go. Oh, we're slowing down now.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Okay. Okay. Here we go. Here we go. Let's look to do. Top, bottom, bottom, oh my god, this is this. Bottom. Shut up, one, three, two, one, it's on.
Starting point is 00:29:24 Oh, it's just missed it. The wedges away. I'm so sorry, Shabon. That was the most anxiety. Now I'm exhausted. Yeah. Okay, now we know don't give it a really big spin. We should have gone to a song there.
Starting point is 00:29:41 Sorry about that, Shabon, you have $100 and your next chance to play is coming up at 8. For those playing at home as well, it did land on Holden. If you drive a Holden, you could have been in luck there. And you'd gotten through this morning, yeah. You would have just won five grand with a free fuel. Wow, okay. Happening again at 8. We'll take the first call of through on 0800 the edge at 8 a.m.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Clint, Meg and Dan. I don't know about you, but I feel good. Feel good. Let's go. Feel Good Friday. A few things we want to chuck on your radar where you go, that's cool. That's cool because there's a lot of doom and gloom out there at the moment. Yeah, there is.
Starting point is 00:30:15 We'd like to be a bit of an escapism for you. There is some good news. for car owners. They're going to be changing the amount of time you need to get a warrant of fitness for your car. So currently, new vehicles, you have to get them after two to three years. Now it's four years for a new car. And cars that are four to 14 years old, you only need to get one every two years now from November. Everyone's loving that, except the mechanics. I know. I guess it will affect mechanics quite heavily, won't it? but yeah so a few changes
Starting point is 00:30:48 it's gonna apparently save you time obviously and money so it's gonna work out to be cheaper for you in the long run so if you're a car owner and you've got a car at less than 40 years hopefully she still needs to get her car Warren a fitness like every six months for a year you had a plant growing out of the upholstery
Starting point is 00:31:02 in one point I've sold that car somebody else has that I'd say that'd be in the tip yeah I think so did you prune the tree before you sold it played some weed sprayed some weed killer in there got extra I got extra
Starting point is 00:31:14 I said it's a it's a Urban Paradise. Right. I found some really good news that just came out yesterday. The blue and yellow mccor has been released into Rio Forest for the first time in 200 years. If you've seen the Rio animated movie from 2011, that's what the movie is about. And they actually have finally done it. Apparently it's a dream come true for residents where the mccor is kind of used everywhere in logos.
Starting point is 00:31:42 But they haven't actually had it live. It's like you're still in a key. It's been captivity, it's been trying to be in breeding programs and it's finally back into the forest and in the wild. I find that here in New Zealand where we're like, oh yeah, we'll call ourselves Kiwis and obviously it's our national bird. You never see one. No.
Starting point is 00:31:58 I'll be it's because they come out at night. I think they are quite fruitful now, Kiwi. I feel like our national bird or animal should be the pigeon or the seagull. I mean, the flightless bird is a bit of a boring bird to be a national bird. I like the, what's our parrot? The kaka-a, the one with the big orange underneath. I think it's a kia. Oh yeah, the kias?
Starting point is 00:32:15 Yeah, yeah, yeah, beautiful. But you've got a helicopter to altitude to see one. More drive a camper van. I love those. And leave it alone for a few hours. Come back and all the rubbers gone. Also, for your Feel Good Friday, pilots, it's nice to know that despite having a very, very serious occupation,
Starting point is 00:32:32 they could also have a little bit of a laugh from time to time. There was a couple of pilots who, I guess, were waiting for their planes to be refielded in Washington. And they decided to meow and bark at each other. over their radios before the air traffic control stepped in and told them to keep a professional. Miao. They're still playing RJ. No. It's a classic Clint happy story because he has always said if you can have more fun, why not?
Starting point is 00:33:09 Yeah. Who doesn't want to have more fun? I don't want those crazy people flying my plane. He literally goes keep a professional and the guy goes, meow, meow, meow, meow. Don't you think it's a little bit like at least they're relaxed? I feel like it's quite good when they're so relaxed. I don't want a little bit unhamed. That is weird.
Starting point is 00:33:24 No one wants a nervous pilot. Yeah, true, true, true. I always look at the pilots when they get on the plane and be like, oh, they look good. They look good, they don't know how to fly a plane. All right, also, speaking to feel good, Friday, the Warriors are going to be playing the Titans tomorrow night, and so Dan yesterday, after the show, Meg,
Starting point is 00:33:39 he's just doing a little bit extra. Yeah, try to see if you could call Gold Coast to see if they'd gee up the Warriors and to give them an up the wires. It took a few goes, if I'm honest, to get someone that was willing to. Oh, don't worry. Heavy edited. Don't worry, Dan, I'll save some of the fails for our enjoyment. Why do you do this?
Starting point is 00:33:55 Thank you, Clint. Just play the wins. We have enough fails on the show as it is. Clint, Megan Dan. I think this might be one of my favorite parts of the show this morning. Especially if you were a Waz fan. Yeah, the Warriors is taking on the Gold Coast Titans, who had started really poorly, but then they've won their last two games.
Starting point is 00:34:11 And they put like 50-something points on the eels last week. So Gold Coast has found their stride. This is going to be our biggest test yet. Dan has done this before with All Blacks Games and other internationals, where he'll call the competition. And then see. if he can convince them to gee up the opposing team. And so he had to find someone from the Gold Coast to do an up the wires.
Starting point is 00:34:33 I basically call and say I'm from the Warriors' like social media team. And I'm wanting to present some audio support for them before the game. Yeah. That's how I do it. I see. Okay. Well, shall we take a listen to how it went yesterday after you had left and Dan decided to stick around? Well, don't play any of the failed attempts because we had like 15 failed attempts before we got to.
Starting point is 00:34:52 I can't remember if this was a fail or a success. I just wanted to get some Australian supporters to pledge their allegiance to the Warriors before the game. And if I could just get a quick up the waz. Up the wards. Oh, great. Oh, that was easy. Oh, my goodness me. Shame on you.
Starting point is 00:35:08 You live in the gold coast. You just cheered on the Warriors. This is a radio station in New Zealand. I'm English. I'm English. I've got no team. I can't even tell you who the Titans are. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:35:18 So I said, Dan, can't do that. Didn't count really, did it? No, you can't get someone from the UK to go up the wards. And I want to keep the st. of the show, hi. Okay. Okay. So then Dan was like, right, let's call SeaWorld in the Gold Coast.
Starting point is 00:35:31 I'm straight. Hello and thank you for calling Seaworld Resort. Thanks. Are you calling to ask how your theme park tickets were? If theme park tickets, you will be sent to an online check-in email. He thought she was real. Yeah, she's got some gusto. Love her.
Starting point is 00:35:48 She's going to have a laugh. No, no. She's a robot. So I was like, Dan, third time's a charm, buddy. If I was just buying a recorder on you, just go, up the waz for me. Yeah, yeah. For that one, you'll need to pop in an email to the management time. You won't just say up the wars?
Starting point is 00:36:06 We, I don't have that option. All I wanted was someone to say up the wars. Yeah, no dramas. Have a good day. You too, bye-bye. He didn't have the option. He was not into it. Yeah, he was not into it.
Starting point is 00:36:18 Yeah, he was not a fan. Okay. And then we're like, right, last one. I'm going home otherwise dead. 20th time, lucky. Ken dang. get someone from the Gold Coast to say Up the Wars ahead of tomorrow night's game.
Starting point is 00:36:28 I'm talking hot shots to speaking with Jessica. Oh Jessica, Dan here from the New Zealand Warriors media team. How are you? Good thanks, Dan. Hey, just very quickly. I know you're probably very, very busy there, but we're playing you guys tomorrow night, the Gold Coast Titans in Auckland.
Starting point is 00:36:44 I was just ringing around and see if I could get a few supporters to say, up the waz for me. Ready? Yep, when you're ready? Up the wards. Oh, see, busy. Shame on you.
Starting point is 00:36:58 It's easy. This is a New Zealand radio station. It's called The Edge, and we're just trying to see if we could get Gold Coast supporters to betray their home team and cheer on the Warriors, and you've done that. That's very un-Azzy of you. Oh, no. That's hilarious. Jess, you're not a big Titan supporter?
Starting point is 00:37:15 I'm not a Titan supporter. Who's your team? I go for the Warriors. Yeah, yeah. What are you doing now? We call the right person then, didn't we? You're on the right bandwagon then. Thank you very much, Jess, for your time.
Starting point is 00:37:30 Maybe you can send us out with one more Up the Waz. Big one. Up the Waz. She was good. The boys all love that. Yeah, oh, yes. And they should start paying you, Dan. With all this pro bono work you're doing.
Starting point is 00:37:45 Look, if they want me to do pro bono stuff, then I'll do it. Okay, yeah. I'm always pro bono. Do you know what? Maybe he needs to go go what pro bono. I don't know what that means. I don't know. Is it the guy that lead the lead singer of you too?
Starting point is 00:37:56 Yeah, yeah. Because I'm pro bono. Yeah, well, pro bono. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. Before we do get into the diary, I just want to remind you of what Meg said. I stand by everything.
Starting point is 00:38:07 I've said and done. Oh dear. She should never have said that. Well, I have to. I have to stand by everything. I have to hope that in the moment that Megan was correct. You're talking about yourself like it's someone else? Here we go.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Atamaria, good morning and welcome back to another producer. diary. The team are back from the Easter break and we're up to our usual antics, so let's get into it. We got chatting about Lufus on the show this week for the very, very first time. Well, at least not according to Dan. I'm a lufa guy. Now, we've spoken a lot about lupers. The thing you use in the shower to
Starting point is 00:38:37 wash. I'm so sorry. You might have done that on your whole show. When I was away, I'm a jinn jinn jillie. You guys spoke about lupers a lot. I'm just going to go through the archive and find out how often we're talking about Lufus. So give me a sec. I don't remember that, but go on. If you find one other time, go, I'll best
Starting point is 00:38:53 Surprise. Anyway, so we've spoken about it in Norsesians. Okay, yeah. According to you. Clint's son Ty's been practicing some drawing recently and was looking for some feedback on his drawing of Pikachu. Thank God he didn't send a photo of it to Dan. He sent it to Meg's husband Guy and Meg.
Starting point is 00:39:11 And he goes, what do you guys think of this that I drew? Could you please rate it out of 10? Oh God, so did you think it was done? I thought it was Clinton. No, but I thought it was from Thai, but I thought Clint sent him. Like, hey, Ty wants to know what you think. I would have literally thought it was Clint and gone, that sucks, bro. Oh, 40.
Starting point is 00:39:32 Cyclone Vianu had the northern part of the country late last week, and although it's great to be prepared, I don't think anyone was as ready as Meg was. Shoelaces. Okay, because they'll become a currency when there's a... That's one Meg thinks. Three different types of rope. How long?
Starting point is 00:39:47 I don't know. Meters, meters of rope. You've already got shoes. What? They've got shoe laces. Four. To tie the kids to us when we're in a flashblood. You used the shoelaces. Um, fishing line.
Starting point is 00:39:57 You've already got shoelaces and rope. When do you fish? Where was the last time you fished? Never fished. Never fish. Did you buy hooks and sinkers and swivels? No. Just you got to put the nylon in the water.
Starting point is 00:40:07 See what happens. See what happens. She can maybe fashion a net out of the nylon clip. A packet Musley bars. Three packets of tuna. You already got fish. Don't even go fishing. Yeah, no, that's in case the fish aren't on the bike.
Starting point is 00:40:17 We go through a lot of hypotheticals on this show, and on Wednesday, we try to imagine what it would be like If Clint, Meg and Dan ran their own McDonald's franchise. Imagine us running a McDonald's. We'd be a nightmare. We'd be bickering. Bickering a whole time. You'd hear us through the little microphones
Starting point is 00:40:31 and forget to turn them off. He's eating another McMufflin. That was for a customer, Meg! We all had a rich mate growing up, and on Wednesday we asked you how did you know that your mate was rich? I think Clint started clicking on that he was said rich mate.
Starting point is 00:40:46 Based off just the one thing that you noticed that they had that you didn't have growing up, what was that thing? Clint was sitting out of this one, by the way. because he had a laundry shoot and an intercom in his house. It was actually more of a pain in the butt than you'd think,
Starting point is 00:40:56 because everything we'd stuck and then someone would have to push the clothes from above with a broom. Would that be the butler though? He'd do that. Giles, it's blocked again. Call mum on the intercom, would you? Mummy, eh?
Starting point is 00:41:11 The laundry chutes blocked again, my man. I'm sitting out, I'm sitting out. And finally, Clint took on the sniff test and tried to work out whose piece of clean or dirty laundry belonged to each team member on the show. That is Meg's and that's dirty. Correct.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Oh wow. Oh, he knows your pheromones, man. Oh, yuck, that is dirty. That's neppy is running ship. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is the last one. No, the fact that Dan wants it up to my nose, it says it's undies, I'm going to say, it's dirty and it's dance, I'm not even going to sniff it. Ding, ding, ding, ding.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Yeah. Yeah. So you're not even going to sniff it. That was undies I wore you for a run. But it was Julia's text that finally put the sniff test to bed once in for all. Well, Julia texted and saying, Hey, tea, my sipped a son, my son's pair of undies once, never again. If it's on the floor,
Starting point is 00:41:58 it's in the wash. So she is. Thanks, Julia. All righty, that's it. We've got time for this week. Hope you have a fantastic weekend. Up the Waz. And we'll catch you same time, same place next week for another producer diary. Thank you, producer, Nibia. You genuinely heard Dan's like anger and disappointment when I didn't
Starting point is 00:42:16 sniff his undies, and he's like, oh, how dumb. You ruined the bat. Oh, I actually genuinely pulled my headphones out, stormed off. I was like, that would have been a great if you just had a little whiff of my undies. Not paid enough. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Okay, Dan's diary. I had to check if he was paid enough. Yeah, he just looked at his salary. He's like, not quite. Dan's diary, we're hoping there maybe one last one left if you're an OG listener of the show, you know what we're talking about. Diaries that Dan wrote when he was like 14 to 16 years of age.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Yeah, and we're reminisced. We're looking back through a few of the older ones before we hopefully may be discovering. Yeah, Dan's Mum's moving house, so we'll do a bit of a show trip to do a huge dig in Dan's mum's basement. Welcome we look forward to in the throwback today, Meg. It's a really good word.
Starting point is 00:43:06 It just really encapsulates Dan's attitude as a trial. The crazy thing is, like 15-year-old Dan had no idea that 20 years later would be reading it out on national radio. Yeah. It's almost like he did know, though. It's wild. Yeah. It's so funny.
Starting point is 00:43:21 Or didn't know. as well, I think. I don't know if I want this read out. We'll see. Clint, Mega Dan. Lesh go. Sit back and relax while we dive into Dan's diary.
Starting point is 00:43:32 It's been a while. It has been a long time. We are reminiscing. These aren't new ones if you heard these. Well, we first did them a couple of years ago. Three and a half. We can hardly remember them to be fair. And hopefully you are experiencing this for the first time.
Starting point is 00:43:44 I am reading verbatim word for word what Dan wrote in his diary at 15. And there's more. There's at least I would like to say there was, because I think we did the men. every term. So I'd like to say there was probably 10 to 15 of them. And if you're wondering why we're digging it back up,
Starting point is 00:43:58 we are hoping to find you diaries because Dan's mum's moving out of her house and we're going to go there, dig around in her basement, in hopes of finding another diary. In her attic. Oh no, attic. Yeah, it's in her attic. Let's stop going. Well, let's dig around on Dan's mum's basement.
Starting point is 00:44:13 Right. I know what you're trying to do. I'm not sure. I know what you're trying to do. I'm not trying to do anything. I mean, now my brain's there, but that's your fault. Right, here we go. Ready?
Starting point is 00:44:24 Ellie got a new Sony phone that has flip in full-color screen. Oh my God, how old are you? Has flip. It has flip. Wow. It has 98 different ringtones. That is good. You can even make your own ones.
Starting point is 00:44:43 It's worth $400. God, they've gone up since then. Inflation, huge, right? I'm surprised she can afford it because last week she had a carrot for lunch. She might have been saving up Yeah Can't afford a $400 photo, I'm sure she's not buying her lunch anyway
Starting point is 00:45:00 That's her parents Right I got in trouble for wearing a mismatch pair of shoes today One side I had a Nike running show And the other was a black Chuck Taylor Mr Ross said it was a tripping hazard Cool bro It was worth it though
Starting point is 00:45:13 What the hell was it? No wonder I wasn't popular Dan's like how could I get attention On a Wednesday It was worth it though For all the laughs Oh, what a loser. Genuinely, the biggest loser.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Also, surprisingly comfortable. We had a fire... Sorry. How old do you reckon you were here? I genuinely couldn't tell you. I would have... Going on wearing a chuck to mismatch shoes, I would maybe say like year a year 10.
Starting point is 00:45:43 We'd be hoping 14. Yeah, 9, year 10, I reckon. We had a fire alarm just before morning tea and some of the deaf students didn't hear it. Obviously. Luckily, it was just a drill because they would have burned to death. Oh my God. Lunch, ham roll, dinner, beef casserole.
Starting point is 00:46:01 It was gluggy. Right. Okay. Why would I even write that in a diary? You're diabolical, man. Why would I even write that in a diary? Slow news day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:18 Well, okay, and so you can see why we're excited to try and find you, Dan's diaries in Dan's. Man's mum's attic. So that'll be maybe a couple of weeks away. We'll have a bit of a show to them. Look forward to that. More stuff like that. What a sad little man I was. And I was.
Starting point is 00:46:38 We gave you the chance to fast track your way on here at 7 o'clock by listening to our Oberthinkers podcast. He was a key word to get on here at 7. We'll take the fastest one through at 8 o'clock for your chance to win $50,000 worth of fuel in less than 20 minutes. We wanted to what spiked the bill because our producer Nipia joins us in studio
Starting point is 00:46:56 because him and his flat have been overpaying something for a long, long time because whoever's in charge of your bills, I think it's Cal who does the show after us. Isn't great with maths? No, no, he's not. Yeah, so Cal and I flat together. We've lived together for about three or four years now, I think.
Starting point is 00:47:11 Best best mates. He is in charge of all of our bills. He pays water, power, Wi-Fi, rent, all that stuff. Great credit to him. It's a massive house. And I'll just step in here. Not everyone pays for water, depending on where you are around the country.
Starting point is 00:47:22 But if you're in Auckland, you pay for your water. Yes. So our typical water bill is between about $150 and $200 a month. It's still quite high. It's still quite high. Yeah, five boys in the flat. We like to, you know, look after ourselves. To the people in the country that don't normally pay a bill,
Starting point is 00:47:37 mine's around 87, cleanses around $100 a month. We've started noticing recently that our water bill has been spiking through the roof. Our last one was over $500. So we've been running water tests. We've been talking to our landlord. and she thinks that we have wasted about 150,000 litres of water across the course of five months,
Starting point is 00:47:59 which is like three massive, good-sized swimming pools. Three swimming pools? 150,000 litres. Yes, it's not good. And we didn't know. It's all under the ground. We checked all over our, like, taps and that kind of thing. So it's some kind of underground pipe.
Starting point is 00:48:14 Surprise you guys aren't wearing gumboots just around your house. I've just Googled. So an average swimming pool is 100,000 litres, so it's double. Well, you might be talking about. Like a... Like a... Like a...
Starting point is 00:48:24 Like a normal swimming pool, like a recreational, like 40, 50,000? Yeah, since I think this is like a one that you'd go to like a public swimming pool. At a gym. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's incredible. It's a crazy amount of water.
Starting point is 00:48:35 And so we're now going through the process of trying to get that money back, essentially. This is the sort of thing you'd see on like the New Zealand Herald front page. One household uses 150,000 liters of water. Water care's got a glitch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:47 And you beat overcharge too. The crazy thing is you just carried on paying it since December. Because, you just, I don't know. Cow didn't go, that doesn't seem right. Well, Cal didn't realize that
Starting point is 00:48:57 that's a ridiculous amount to be blamed for water. He kept it quiet because he loves a 20 minute shower and just didn't want to bring that to our attention. He was having 20 minute showers on top of the leak. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:49:07 So he's not helping with the problem. Wow. My goodness. We want to know what spike the bill. A lot of the times kids are responsible. You know, if it's like an online game and then you don't have parental controls and they can just start buying skins on 4'9.
Starting point is 00:49:20 I've gone stop the leak there with my seat. son? Yeah, tie some skins, man. Stop being a bad dad. I reckon like this flat, like five dudes in their mid-20s are less responsible than a kid. Yeah. The fact that you've let this pass and thousands of litres of water have just gone.
Starting point is 00:49:36 I know. Going like that. Could have saved countries. Genuinely. Okay, I went under the edge 3343. What's your story where you were like, Jesus, when you got the bill? What the hell happened there? And whose fault was it?
Starting point is 00:49:46 Maybe it was a car bill. You know, you took it in for a routine service. It was thousands of dollars later. You have to pay it as well. Yeah, because what are you going to do? Yeah, they did the work. Crazy, hey? That's why they keep the keys.
Starting point is 00:49:57 They give them to you after it accepts. Produce Anipia and his flat have used 150,000 litres of water over the last five months. Think of that. They've got to leak. It's about three swimming pools worth. They should have known because their bills are like triple what it normally is. I want to know what spiked the bill. This one meant you've got to be careful with because I didn't know that this could happen to me,
Starting point is 00:50:16 but it happened to someone when they went to a hotel, and they said to their kids, like, everything's free. Like, you can take the soaps and you can take the soap, the moisturizers and whatever. They obviously thought everything and the mini bar was also free so when they got asked, did you take anything? They said no, and they got a massive bill
Starting point is 00:50:31 when it finally came through because their kids emptied out all the chocolates. That's their fault. That's their fault. You can't say everything is free to children and they expect them not to look straight in the fridge. And the markup on minibars is crazy. I think sometimes it's like 70% markup on the items.
Starting point is 00:50:45 Why is that still a thing? I don't know. It doesn't make any sense really, does it? Well, it's convenient. I mean, you don't have to go out to buy a packet of chips. But it's not like it's inconvenient for the hotel to provide a peanut slab. This sounds like something. You do someone accidentally subscribe to a premium horoscope app at 15 bucks a week and didn't realize for a year.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Oh, yeah, that's good. Well, if they didn't realize for a year, they could afford it. Probably, yeah. They should have read the horoscope. I like this text. My wife gave an 18-month-old, the PlayStation controller while changing his diaper. And in that time, he pressed buttons until he bought a year-long PlayStation Plus membership. Oh, piss off.
Starting point is 00:51:19 He's making an excuse. Oh, we've got to be. Yeah, Trent, where are you, Trent? Yeah, apparently it was all, oh, $250, and it was all down to the baby. Trent, have you been spending money? I swear to God it was my child. Now, Trent, I have PlayStation Plus, and you have to put in a password before you put through a purchase. So did he know your password as well, did he?
Starting point is 00:51:44 How did he manage it? I don't know if I haven't set up so you can bypass that, so you can just, like, one tap it or something, but I was at work and my wife called me. She's like, um, I think Lawson just subscribed to PlayStation Plus, and then in that time I got an email from PlayStation Plus saying, thank you for your purchase. $250.
Starting point is 00:52:05 I was like, oh, well, we'll have to use it now. So maybe when people on trade me, go, sorry after they've bought your thing, that was my four-year-old. No, it wasn't. You've just changed your mind. They don't give you money back. They don't give you money back if you do that anyway.
Starting point is 00:52:19 Jana, morning. Jana, yeah. Jana, sorry. Yeah, what was the bill? That's okay. So my mom's, my mom lives out the back, like a granny flat, and she got a new heater for wintertime. And then we got, she only had it on for maybe a week at this point.
Starting point is 00:52:39 And we got the bill come through, and it had gone from, like, $250 to, like, $500-something. Oh, my goodness. And then we were like, that's insane, like, what the, So we were trying to figure out what could have happened because, like, it's always consistent. And it was her heater. We had to do, like, a test of turning the heater off
Starting point is 00:53:01 and then checking the meter and then turning it back on and then checking the meter. And it was, like, double within an hour. Did she buy a cheap little heater to save some money? Yeah. And that's what it does here. She must have had it on constantly, just constantly on. Do you know what?
Starting point is 00:53:17 My wife is accusing me, because our parents are. Carville's gotten out of, like, control. And she thinks it's the bidet toilet seats that I got because they heat all day so that when you sit on it, you've got a nice warm butto. How much has your bill gone up? Powerball went from about $600 to I got a bill for $1,000. Whoa, they're paying for themselves, the bidetes.
Starting point is 00:53:39 I didn't get this quiet. Oh, my God. I called Genesis. I was like, it can't be right. My wife goes, it's the bloody badees. I was like, he can't. Toilid seats can't be costing $200 each a month to heat. That's how rich Clint is he's willing to. he's willing to have a warm bum
Starting point is 00:53:50 and pay $400 a month. You know what this means? After all of this, he's going to have to get them taken out. I know. And your house hunting at the moment, aren't you? You've literally installed two bidetis and you're looking for another house. You're unrelatable.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Wow. Let's finish on Jonathan. I think he's got a really good one. That's the line, Dan. I don't know. He might appreciate it. Morning, Jonathan. Morning. Are you happy we're finishing with you?
Starting point is 00:54:21 On you, is what you said? Hey, yeah. Um, yeah. What was the bill? Wine tasting. It was $2,300. We did a wine tasting with my mother. Um, and we got a bit too carried away with testing the wines and got plastered.
Starting point is 00:54:37 And the next minute, looked at the bill when we're getting our order back. And we'd ordered 74 bottles of wine. You were your mum. You must have done takeaway. He must have had the boxes. to take home or something? No, no, no. There's a thing in Christchurch that,
Starting point is 00:54:54 oh, it's actually throughout the whole country. It's called the wine community. And we're at a sipping away. Like, man, these are good. These are good. Next minute, bit carried away. And I had a good time and stuff. I was like, oh, crap.
Starting point is 00:55:05 Then two days later, they checked out of credit card. And I was like, oh, crap. Oh, my God. You and your mom cannot be trusted to go out and drink. Yeah, apparently it was nearly $2,000 to bill, Jonathan got.
Starting point is 00:55:15 That's like you and your mom if you were to go drinking to get a clint. Hey, two grand, that's nothing, Jonathan. We're giving away $50,000, mate, worth of fuel with Clint Megan Dan's fuel. Oh, 800 the edge. Clint Megandan. Your car is your ticket to win. It's time to spin the wheel.
Starting point is 00:55:30 Clint Megan Dan. Good morning, three past eight all thanks to Novice Glass. Windscreen chip or crack. Notice it, Nova's worth of fuel on the wheel. Bridget is playing this morning. She is indeed. Good morning, Bridgett. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Hi! Hey! That's a hard part done, honestly. It is in the same situation as me at the moment, boys. Bridget has a baby that goes to sleep in the car, so you need to drive around to keep the baby asleep in the car, which means it's a very expensive nap. I am in that stage with you, Bridget, so I get it.
Starting point is 00:56:04 All right. What are you driving? We drive in Nissen. Okay, Nissan, reliable, great. Okay, well, I hope it's the right car. You can text Fuel to 3343 if you want to watch the live stream of the spin. Bridget, good news is you got 100 bucks free fuel. That's yours.
Starting point is 00:56:18 Right now we spin to see. See if we can upgrade it to $5,000. And then we'll let you know how you can turn that into 50. The question is, Bridget, who would you like to spin up that $5,000? Meg, Clint or me? I'm going to go with Meg. Okay, good. Okay, good.
Starting point is 00:56:32 Okay, how I feel right now. Here she goes. She's coming around. Her lucky hands are ready to spin the lucky wheel. $5,000. She's done a good spin. It's going, it's going. Oh my God, this is going to be a long.
Starting point is 00:56:47 Oh, no. I think Meg spun it. So it's too hard? Too fast. Okay, what we're going to do is we're going to go to a song and we'll come back and it'll still be spinning. That is one hell of a spin-meag. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Oh my God, it's not even slowy. It's definitely. Something's happened to the world. Someone has greased it up since yesterday. Because we did say we'd love it to spin a little bit longer, didn't we? I think what we've done has gone the wrong way. Okay. Slowing down.
Starting point is 00:57:14 It's slowing down. It's top, bottom, top, bottom, top. It's still got a bit of pace on it. Okay. No, no, we slow down. Here we go. This is the thing where you think it's slow. going down though but it's actually still got a while to go.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Top. Bottom. Top. Okay. Bottom. It's back up at the top. It's still going. Okay, Bridgett.
Starting point is 00:57:37 Okay, it's at the top but it's still spinning. I don't know if it's gonna have the legs. Hold on, it's at the bottom. It's coming around. It's three wedges away. Two wenges away. On Audi. It was a tease, one hell of a spin meg.
Starting point is 00:57:54 Sorry, we could have to go later on them. My goodness. Oh, I'm so sorry, three wedges away. Bridgett. The good news is you've still got that $100. That was yours. Yep. That is yours, Bridgette.
Starting point is 00:58:04 Well done. Okay, can we get this wheel? Yeah, we're going to have to... What's the opposite to lube? Friction. I don't know. I don't think there is an option. Do we get a little bit of sand or something?
Starting point is 00:58:15 Put a little sand into the wheel. That sounds really uncomfortable. Clint, Megan, Dan. We'd be giving you the chance to win $50,000 worth of fuel. With our roulette wheel of fuel, fuel let. That'll be backing in next week, 7 and 8. And your car basically wins the money for. you, doesn't it? If it lands on your car.
Starting point is 00:58:31 I found a list on the internet that apparently what it says about you if you drive a Tesla. Right, we did Ford Rangers yesterday. Yeah, and that was kind of our opinions, but this one is apparently just the collated of the internet of what they've said. So maybe we could agree or disagree, obviously
Starting point is 00:58:47 Clint you drive a Tesla. So we'll have to wait and see, Dan, if we think that these things match. I have some preconceived ideas of what a Tesla driver consists of. I catch all the memes too. Everyone forwards them on to me. So apparently, of the top five things that, if you drive a Tesla, this is what it says about you, that you're an autopilot, like, over-reliance, that you're, that you fully kind of treat more like self-driving,
Starting point is 00:59:12 so maybe you don't trust yourself as much when it comes to driving. That's so clean. And you trust the tech. So clint. An excuse to text or check out of the task of driving when you're in one. No, they can't actually, because there's cameras. If you do self-driving and you're on your phone, it'll flash red and tell you to get off your phone. So it knows.
Starting point is 00:59:28 It knows you're doing, man. How do you know that it's done it? You obviously have had the thing. Nauty boy. Yep, that proves my point. And if you keep doing it, it turns off auto driving. You can't use it. That was a test.
Starting point is 00:59:38 Test the drivers are entitled tech bros. Wealthy type 8 people. Oh, that's clear. Okay. Apparently, according to the internet, test the drivers have poor, like, road habits. Oh. Well, he's texting while he's driving.
Starting point is 00:59:53 We've proved that. One time. Yeah. They're aggressive drivers. aggressive. Well, you know what? He is quite aggressive, Meek, because you know how we park
Starting point is 01:00:02 outside in the edge car park three of us in a row. Meg's Vitz, my Kia, and Clint's Tesla. He's always the one that pushes out first, eh? He's so aggressive. He doesn't wait for you.
Starting point is 01:00:12 He couldn't let Mead go first, ladies first. He never agreed. Meg's sitting on her phone trying to work out who she's going to call on the way home to fill her journey. That takes me a while. Should I call mum or mum? It's every time.
Starting point is 01:00:24 And the final one of apparently what driving to Tesla says about you if you drive a Tesla, you can let us know if you agree with this or not? You like facials, massages? Do you like facials? Yeah. Okay. And arrogant elitist. Oh, right. Yes!
Starting point is 01:00:39 Oh, yes, they're arrogant. Very much so. Are you never seen a Tesla driver and they always, they like this, they look at you like, they look down their nose at you because they're like, I'm driving an electric car. No, we've got fossil fuel, huh? We just know we're just cop and shade
Starting point is 01:00:53 because you guys are paying four bucks a liter at the pump, and it cost me five bucks to almost do the length of the country, The North Island, Lisa. Well, some of us can't afford 70K to drop on a car. I'm sorry. $70,000. Yes. Wow.
Starting point is 01:01:05 Or two of them, like Clint. To be fair, if I'm being truly honest, I actually just threw the whole $70 grand on the mortgage. So I didn't have the money either. I live well beyond my means. Yes. Very much so. So I'll part off eventually.
Starting point is 01:01:19 I just wanted it now. What do you think? Oh my God, we just said that in the same time. Snap. Snap. I mean, you might agree. You might disagree. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:27 If you drive a Tesla, do you go, no, I bought one because I want to save the environment, but I hate Elon Musk mask, I don't know. I did see a Tesla actually the other day with a bumper sticker going, love the car, hate the designer, or hate them whatever it is. Elon Musk Hater's Club or something. To be fair, I don't think he has much to do with the company anymore. He's so rich, he just lets it play. Yeah, good. Yeah. All right, is the car stereotype spot on?
Starting point is 01:01:47 Do you want to add to it? Maybe you don't drive one, but you just know of people that do, like Clint. What are your thoughts? This is, we shouldn't pick cars that we drive, because I can't take shots at it now. I feel like I've got a gun with no ammo. Just sitting here. What are Meg and Dan on the edge? What does your car say about you?
Starting point is 01:02:05 We took shots at Ford Ranger drivers yesterday. I think the stereotypes that the internet was throwing out and that you weighed in on were pretty accurate. There's always an exception with a stereotype, and there will be the exception. There was positives and negatives, but it was mainly negatives, wasn't it, about the poor old Ranger drivers? I know some lovely Ranger drivers.
Starting point is 01:02:21 Yeah, I think the one that kept coming in the most was that people who own Rangers want one, don't need one. and the tray and all that space in the back really gets used mostly for carrying groceries. That's just Uts in general, though. Most people that drive them don't use the tray at all. Today, though, we're doing Tesla's Meg.
Starting point is 01:02:38 Yeah, we are. The only person I know that drives a Tesla is Clint. And he is too. And so I can't take shots at Tesla drivers and just... Well, you can. You can try really hard to make fun of yourself. It feels like an own goal. A lot of the messages are coming through about Tesla drivers
Starting point is 01:02:55 are saying that they just love talking about their Tesla. They're like those type people you go to a party and they're like, well, I've got a Tesla. And they just love bragging about their Tesla and how they don't use any fossil fuel. This is such a specific burn. Someone said Tesla drivers are the types of people that would stretch before going for a walk.
Starting point is 01:03:12 That's so true. I don't know. That's so true. Okay, we've got Susie on 0800 the edge. Morning, Susie. Morning, guys. How are you? Yeah, good, Susie. Okay, so my son, he's 12. he's so tick savvy
Starting point is 01:03:26 but every time we see a Tesla he says they suck and they're ugly so there you go kids are brutally honest yeah they are brutally honest and that's the most honest you want right so Clint sell you Tesla man
Starting point is 01:03:41 so you Tesla I wouldn't be doing that right now if your price is going over four bucks a leader mate No way it is What's the other car brand the Chinese car brand BID They're popping up everywhere now Everywhere Wow
Starting point is 01:03:53 They're the people's Tesla The people's dead. Yeah, they're slightly cheaper. I saw a thing on the internet that the Chinese have worked out how to charge Chinese electric vehicles faster than you can fill a car with fuel.
Starting point is 01:04:06 Now the future's coming. Oh, I like this text that's come in for Tesla's stereo stereotypes. Tesla drivers are tosses. Oh, thanks Cassandra. That's from Cassandra. Thanks Cassandra. Seriotypically.
Starting point is 01:04:17 There's always the exceptions. They'd annoy me because I just couldn't drive very far because you have to worry about like charging and all that stuff. How far do you want to go, mates have a four on a case? Oh, maybe I've got to drive to Impa Cargall for the day. Okay. Well then yeah, you're going to have to stop for two times. See, I could do that in my petrol car. One stop.
Starting point is 01:04:34 And it's a quick stop as well. And it'll only cost you about 1,800 bucks to get there. Yeah, that's true. It's almost as much as a Tesla. Okay, next, I've got a bit of an admission, guys. We said we were going to do something together, but unfortunately, I got excited and I went and did it on my own.
Starting point is 01:04:53 Okay, well, What do you mean? What were we going to do together? You know how we were going to go to Dan's mum's house and search around in her basement? Shut up, you went without me? Are you joking? I had like one day yesterday that I couldn't go because my friend was visiting. Did you go?
Starting point is 01:05:09 I went to Dan's mum's basement and I did a bit of a wrecky and had a look around. Dan. So you can see what he's doing. Shit, man. Have you okay this with my mum? It's 820.
Starting point is 01:05:19 She kind of knows about it. She kind of knows. You were in her basement. Clint Megan Dan All right we've been discussing over the last couple of days the fact that Dan's mum's moving house and that there is an opportunity
Starting point is 01:05:32 for us to go digging around in her basement to see if there are any leftover diaries She's got an attic but it doesn't matter Well you were saying basement And then obviously I can't remember if it was Meg or I being immature Oh don't pull me into this
Starting point is 01:05:45 It was definitely you But then I also had the idea To change the name So that we didn't have to be immature Can we call it an attic? Let's pull it an attic So we can stop the stupid, very immature connotation of my mother's basement. We can be mature.
Starting point is 01:06:01 We can be mature. If it's in your mum's basement, it's in a basement. Can we stop talking about it, please? What have we got in your mum's basement? I just wonder, if there's hunger out there. Oh, goodness. Okay, sorry. Right.
Starting point is 01:06:14 We're going to go on search for a Dan's diary at some point in the next week or so. In your mum's basement. Well, we were going to, but apparently Clinton by himself, Dan. Yeah, okay. Of course he did. Then there's a basement. He'll be there. We were going to wait till next week. And then I had some free time yesterday,
Starting point is 01:06:27 and I was like, I'll just go have a sneaky look on my own. God, you must have be desperate, because my mum lives quite far away as well. It was like an hour's drive. Yeah, yeah. And so I didn't really have her permission. I just thought, I'll go around there, and I'll just have a little bit of rummage
Starting point is 01:06:43 and see if I can find anything. And I flipped my phone in to record just in case I did happen to stumble across anything. Right. Okay. You ready? No. No.
Starting point is 01:06:53 None of us are ready for the. this Clint. Well it looks like it's been a while since anyone's been in here. There's doors a bit stiff. Maybe if I, dusty in here, way bigger in here than I thought. Hello! It's a shame. There's graffiti on the walls. Dan was here, 1988. Huh. That's weird. I haven't even been in here that long. It's starting to be really damp in here. Oh my God. They're in the Oh, there's so much stuff in here. If I'm careful, am I able to move that and balance my way? Oh, I've just destroyed Dan's mum's basement.
Starting point is 01:08:02 Clint, what are you doing in here again? Get out of here now. Do you know what? No, no, no, no, Dan. Poor Julie. She didn't know that she wouldn't have known that was, that was, that was, that was, did you ask, did you tell Julie what it was for? Did you just say, can you say this?
Starting point is 01:08:24 She didn't ask what it was for. My beautiful, innocent. Mum Jules provided some voicing for your crappy bit not knowing that you were doing an innuendo basement gag. No, what do you mean? What do you mean innuendo?
Starting point is 01:08:38 It's just a basement thing. You know what you did. I see what I can see. You know what you're doing. My mother's a saint. You were born in 88 though, right? Yeah, and you're in so much trouble. You're in so much trouble because of him. I'm going to get a text this afternoon
Starting point is 01:08:54 and she's going to go, you knew about that, and you didn't tell me. I knew nothing. I knew nothing. Dan winking at me. Start with the winks. Whoever did the production on that was brilliant, though. Yeah, right?
