This is a podcast from Rover. Round and mud. Look at her. Oh, she's about to do her mating call. Whoa! E-I-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O We made it, we made it, you made it. Everybody made it, we're all in this together. What's Olivia doing calling us right now? What do you want Olivia? Olivia, she's straight off the bat. I think Carl, our producer, is just bringing her to make sure. Because Olivia is the person we're playing for, our band. Oh, it is Olivia's 40th, are you getting it?

Because she's going to be on the show today, eh? Yeah, yeah, but she's currently over in Romania on a work trip, so I'm just testing the line now How do you get to Romania? You just take a plane, bro. It's like it's not that hard. So most places clipped Yeah, yeah, sometimes you can do bass as well to you like the city To Romania, I honestly don't think you can do that no depending where you started Yeah, I guess. Probably.

You know when you hear these people and you're like, oh, what are you up to? Let's change our mate and he's like, I'm off to Sri Lanka on Saturday. And I was like, oh, what with the fam? Nah, just for work. Yeah. And I was like, what?

When do we, when are we going? Sri Lanka's for work. Sri Lanka's the home of Dilma. And there's- Dilma tea. Yeah, yeah. One of my favourite teas. I'd go Twining's second. Always Dilma first.

Really? I like Red Seal. Oh, okay. Is that like the cheap one? Is it? Can we not grease the cheap brand that's never gonna send us anywhere overseas? Red Seal might send us somewhere. Red Seal are based in like Hamilton. Oh, don't go to Sri Lanka, Meg. Alright, hey, it's gonna be a fun show. Who dares? Dan is happening after 8.30. A lot of wheels turning behind the scenes and have been for some time. A lot of stressful producers hoping that it all goes exactly as it should today at 8.30. Dan has no idea. You're just along for the ride buddy. I mean that quite literally. I'm locked at the show sheet and it's in for three different breaks this morning, and there's attempt one, and then attempt two.

So you guys are not faithful that I can do it in one attempt. No, absolutely not, personally. I'm gonna try and do it in one. Okay. It'd be much easier for us if you could, but I'm unsure we're gonna get there today. Yeah, plenty of-

Something skill-based now, and I don't have any skill, and that's why I don't have faith. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh my gosh. All right, important guys, time for a 6am throwback for your Friday. It's got to be one that's going to get everyone going for the weekend. Oh, that's true, Clint.

It's International Mimosa Day today. And I think going into Friday, a lot of people already planned out their antics tonight and a lot of the time that involves drinking. doesn't need to you can have fun without drinking I'm not sure how people do it but some do what's your song did well I was just gonna say mimosa day yeah as well what's the point of a mimosa because because I'll tell you it's so you can drink in the morning. Yeah it's a morning drink. It's a brunch drink. I love that one of my favorite alcohols is the champagne. It's one of the only ones I like and because it's nice so why mask it with juice. That's all I'm saying. So you can have it with bacon and eggs. And people don't look at you funny.

It's not looking at you. Now guys I actually think that the the planets have aligned here. Stars. Planets I don't think they ever aligned did today. That would be one amazing day if we had a planet eclipse. Why, and all the, producer Carl, do all the- I love space shit. They literally, like it was a one in like thousand year event, they aligned like earlier this year. All eight of the planets? All of them.

Thank you, Carl. Yeah, they align. Yeah, thank you. But it still doesn't work because that was earlier this year. Because Meg's like, oh, the planets have aligned. We're like, okay, so it's a once in a thousand year event. What's happened? Oh, you know, Meg's still wrong. Well, this would have worked better if Dan, you had a song and then I was going to say, oh, you know.

Oh, okay. So can you just say a dumb song? Okay, well something to do with alcohol. Shots, shots, shots, shots, shots. And I'll go, I'll take your shots. Okay. And I'll raise your glass. Is that where you're going? The pink, because it's also pink shirt day. Oh, synergy.

See, planets aligning. Okay. It's about alcohol and pink. And loaded up some drinking songs. No, I like pink. Jay Kwan. This actually got a remake by Shaboosie. Little T-Pain.

Drinking doesn't fire good music, does it? Of course. There's a great line in this. She made us drinks to drink, we drunk him, got drunk. What about Cheers Drink to that, Rihanna? Had it ready. And it's a Friday so this is synergy as well. And then I started scraping the bottom of the barrel. What's this one? Oh because Amy Winehouse was an alcoholic. No Amy Winehouse. Oh that's really insensitive. That's really horrible. She was a well known alcoholic who passed away.

We really insensitive house. After all this synergy this morning, that's like gone and just dampened my mood. What a horrible guy you were. Okay so pink? Yeah. Raise your glass. Don't bully anyone. It's pink shirt day.

Let's go over here. Laughing at anyone. Don't do what Clint does. I must say Meg's wearing a pink shirt today. You could have ironed it. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. It's Mimosa Day today and also pink shirt day. So a nice little synergy pick there from Meg.

Thank you so much. Thank you so much. All right. She's a bit of a dark scandal this morning. Clint, Meg and Dan scandal. You know, I just don't know how, I don't know. It obviously keeps happening because he hasn't, he's not a great guy.

Rapper Chris Brown was arrested in Manchester on Thursday. There's only so much that you can say is like, oh, people were just out to get me or against me or people were judging me. If things like this are still happening, you haven't. He's a wrongin', he's a wrongin'. You know, like he's one of those people that kinda, he's just always gonna be a bad boy, isn he? He was arrested this was two years ago to be

fair but still it was a London nightclub attack two years ago but he was arrested this week for it so I don't know if it's just been the complainants just been laid or it's finally like come to be that they can arrest him so what had happened is that in a London bar, there was an unprovoked attack apparently around 3am while they're at the Dirty Martini Club Night. Sounds like a lovely place to go for dinner. Dirty Martini Club Night. Family establishment.

This guy that is doing the claims against Chris Brown smashed him over the arm, he claims that Chris Brown smashed him over the head with a bottle and then punching Captain Moseley on the floor. And then you know that people were still going to defend Chris and be like, it's probably this guy just would have seen Chris Brown and tried to provoke him on purpose to get him arrested. A lawsuit or like to get money. You just know that there would still be that sort of, you know, defense.

Why can people defend him now? Like, even the first instance when he attacked Rihanna in the car during the American musicals or something, wasn't it, before that? Like, her face after that was, that was a full assault. I actually think as well, Dan, like, imagine if that happened now, I feel like it would be even worse,

and it was crazy then. And I know it's not like the assault has gotten worse, but I feel like we've all become a little bit more like things aren't acceptable. And every time I mention it a lot of people go oh but she's forgiven him now. It's like but that doesn't matter just because she forgave him. Yeah. Doesn't make it right. There's a lot of women that forgive people that abuse them. It doesn't mean that they're bad. I remember when that documentary came out and he addresses it in like his

documentary and he talks about it and he takes ownership for what he's done. But when he talks about how she was hitting him first and he was getting frustrated driving the car. I guess you're right Dan like when the photos came out there's a difference between when someone you're physically stronger than stopping them from say slapping you in the face or whatever he was saying happened. And stopping someone from doing that opening the door and taking them out of your car versus like actually beating them? Yes, like he could have literally stopped and got out and walked away. Yeah, I can't remember how it was a long time ago that Doki came up, but he did address that and he probably won a few people over with that I guess.

Yeah, definitely. It's just a really interesting thing that this, you know, that he can't even come to New Zealand but man if he tries to. Oh he's not allowed in the country? No no he's not allowed to because he's had a um. Like whatever the charges that are laid against him. Yeah yeah yeah so he's not allowed here so I think he actually was trying to come here for a wee while and he wasn't allowed in the country so it got cancelled and oh the uproar the like people were starting so many petitions to like let him. It's crazy, eh? Yeah, very bizarre. But it is not but, but he's made really good music and so people just forgive people that make good music even when they do bad things. They do. I guess it's like the Michael Jackson. When that doco came out,

we were all like that Netflix doco and those two people spoke out and allegedly when they were kids they talked about their experience with Michael Jackson and now they're adults and You were like he's done. He's so done and his family did everything to stop the doco, but nah, bars still rock Michael Jackson Yeah, I mean it's thriller absolute banger Undeniable. Maybe you're right Meg if the music's good enough Majority of people can just move on and forget and there's some people that'll defend people like that to the death. You know, in their head they're just like, they're innocent.

There's no way they could do anything like that. Yeah, yeah, I can't agree more. So, and that's the ladies with Chris Brown. Clint, Megadamn. Let's go! Are we ready? Yes, the highlights. Highlights of this week if you have...

Oh, would we call them highlights? Well, I don't know, we do at the start, and then generally we pivot and change our mind depending on, you know, what producer neeps are throwing together. I have faith that it's going to be highlights this week if you have... Oh, we call them highlights? Well, I don't know, we do at the start, and then generally we pivot and change our mind depending on, you know, what Producer Neeps is throwing together. I have faith that it's going to be highlights this week. Okay, if you're someone that doesn't listen between 6am and 10am, well then you may have missed some stuff, so let's take a listen. Automatio, Producer Neeps here with another Producer Diaries, and that is another fantastic

week in the back. Which means only a week away from MCDC's debut gig. We had some great callers and some massive laughs as well, so let's get into it. This week, we chatted about the time you got bullied by a kid as an adult when we got this fantastic call from a listener. I was in the shower with you when she was little,

as you do, and she was just looking up at me, and then she goes, Mom, when I grow up, I'm gonna have a big, fat, hairy fanny, just like you, aren't I? And I was like, oh my god. You know what's so funny too, is that from her height, it would have just been right there. Right in her face. Working in radio, being clear and concise with a message is of the utmost importance.

Clinton, get that message though. Mission Impossible, the final reckoning. If you want to double pass and you want a favourite corer, call her, we'll hook you up. Your favourite corer. Shut up, Dan. Don't think I missed your one as well, Dan. I said I've had five copies. They should go well. You deserve a fifth month for free. They don't take that.

We are also officially one week away from MCDC's first, and possibly only, gig. You three are obviously a bit too excited about it. Why don't you come over to my house just this afternoon, just you, Clint, and you play with me for about an hour. And we can sort of get... What do I do? Who am I playing with? What? Don't just say stuff like that. We're just going to put it in the producers' diary for Friday. You're goddamn right I will, Clint.

This week we also chatted about the band's writer and what we might possibly have on that. Ruby called up with a suggestion. I was thinking maybe you could request to have me back stage. Oh, Groupie. That's an interesting thing. And then we had a few ideas of our own as well. I would like to have some Apple Crown whiskey

before I go out and perform. I want somebody to come massage my feet. Okay. Shock or not? Before. Before. Okay. Shocker not before. Shocker not before or after. Shocker not. Well, I've got ADHD, so I want a bowl full of Ritalin. And it'll give us street cred because people go,

oh my God, look, I've got drugs in a bowl. Do you want to take it whole or do you want it crushed so you can snort it? Maybe some crushed. You asked for the suppositories before as well. Do you want those? Yes, and I want someone to do that for me. The worst, right?

Ruby! All right, we'll leave it there for the day. And that is another Producer Diaries done and dusted. Have a great weekend and we'll see you all bright and early on Monday next week. Yeah, we will. By the way, you know Ruby who said she was going to be our groupie and stuff? Yeah. That little bit got made into a video and she commented on it and said,

I didn't know what a groupie was. She just thought it was somebody who liked the music of the band. So she signed up for something that she's like oh. But I think she has said yes to those requests. And since then she has now gone okay. So she's doing the suppository, massaging Meg's feet and Clint's what do you want? She can just pour me a whiskey. I'm really, who would have thought you're a bigger diva than me?

Okay shotgun for Clint to go last with the whiskey after the suppository. I'm going before Meg's mangy feet. Last night my wife and kids and I were heading home from the play, Anything Goes Wrong, or Everything Goes Wrong. Oh, yes, it's the one where it's a play. Everything Goes Wrong. And then the lights fall down. Yeah, and there's a lot of mistakes in there,

but they're built into the show and it's quite funny. We were driving home and I saw an ad for J.W. Marriott hotels. It's like a luxury hotel chain. And I looked at the ad and I said to my wife, they've absolutely dropped the ball there. And as I explained to her, she goes, oh yeah, they have too. But I don't know if it's noticeable,

I'm just very much an over thinker. So the ad, the billboard is this. It's like a very good looking guy and his wife or partner and her and him are like sort of side profile looking out of a window and you just see this luxury curtain there and the lights coming in and you can see there's really orange hue on their face because the sun yeah the sun's there. Sounds lovely so far. I'm really um. I want to stay at JW. They're just in the hotel room I suppose in the morning and

the sun's streaming in right and they're just standing at the window you can't see any of the rest of the room and it just says 7.03 a.m. Right! Oh god go to a hotel and you get away from say the kids if you've got them or whatever so that you can kind of sleep in and then you wake up like in 903 earliest they need noise-cancelling windows they've been woken up by the bin man yeah it was like that means makes me feel like you get the shit asleep ever yeah yeah or you've got the earliest check out like check Yeah, it was like that means makes me feel like you get the shittest sleep ever at the time Yeah, or you've got the earliest check out like check out 730 in the morning. You're like we've got all that stuff together We gotta go babe. Let's go. Let's go Make it if they wanted that beautiful photo make it sunset and make it like, you know cocktail out

I was 730 p.m But the sun's still up at like 9 and I get what they're meaning like well the sun's rising and it's on their face But just 703 stressed me out. I'll say if I'm going to a hotel for a staycation I'm not getting up at 6 because they looked ready they were clothes they were ready to attack the day. They've been up since 6.30 then. Exactly. Oh my gosh she's got a full face of make up. They're not in their robes and looking like they've just woken up with a coffee they look like they're good to go out the door with their bags. Do you know what that also says to me?

It's an affair. That it's a week night and they're both going to work and they're both going to, they're corporate people. What's the name of the hotel? JW Marriott. Oh, just woke up Marriott. Yeah. Just wake up and get out of here please.

Wake up Marriott. Yeah. Maybe then she cut times eight. It's such a- Come here for your affairs. It's such a small change, it's 9.03 and I go, oh yeah, imagine, you know, you sleep until like 8.30, get a coffee and you're standing there,

the sun's still coming up and you're like, oh. Oh my God, if I'm going to a hotel, I don't remember the last time I stayed at a hotel with my wife Hannah, but we're sleeping until at least nine. Yeah, right? At least. Because 10.03 suggests you've kind of wasted the day a little bit and you've probably missed breakfast, which is probably included. So I'm like a 9.03 is like, yeah, it's a nice sleep in. You've still got the morning, you know, to go and explore.

7.03, they should have run it by some people. Even 8 feels more better. Even if you put an 8 there, I'm like, okay, that's nice. That's a nice, you know, you still got the day and 7. 8.56, like, you know. I'm waking up, here's what I'm going to do. I'm waking up at 8.30 and then I'm going to try something, you know, with Hannah, try.56. Like, you know. I'm waking up, and here's what I'm gonna do. I'm waking up at 8.30 and then I'm gonna try something, you know, with Hannah, try a little bit of, you know. And then after 8.33, you're like... 8.33, I'm out.

Yeah. Yeah. Uh... Clint, Megan, Dan, stinky boo. 10 things that carry more germs than your toilet seat. Dan has the list, and the number one thing we will get to, I have touched of Sam Neils from Jurassic Park. Okay, so you've said it, Bums, one of the, no I'm joking.

I don't know why you've touched Sam's. But no, there's a lot of things out there that, and I'd say that most people would go, you'd never touch a toilet seat because it's filthy. Or you wouldn't rub your hand on it and then go about your day without washing your hands. And it's probably, you're probably right, but a lot of things are filthier in terms of germs.

Doorknobs, publicly, if you're going through public, like, you know, doors and you're using a doorknob. You know what doesn't make sense to me is like public toilets, why they aren't a push to exit. True. They're always like a pull. So then I have to do,

you know how a lot of them have that gas strut at the top of the door? I'll generally push the gas strut just enough to get the door open enough so I can get my hand in and then pull it Yeah on the other side Because otherwise you've just washed your hands then you're gonna touch the dirtiest thing in the room Yeah, yucky. Carpet in any house apparently people Not at Megs's. Not my house, brand new carpet. It is brand new. But it got the one before that.

Oh no, they should have studied it. They should have studied it. Yeah. Disgusting. That had like cultures in it. Cool. Especially if your shoes are on household. Because do you think about-

Which we are now not by the way. Yeah. Elevator buttons in public elevators. Apparently 10 times filthier and germ filled than a toilet seat, a public toilet seat. Oh man, I always get my daughter to press those buttons when she thinks it's fun. Cell phone screens, no one, clearly 15% of people actually clean their cell phone weekly with alcoholic wipes. They are sometimes 15% filthier than a toilet seat, a public one. But people take them into the

toilet. True and they're doing stuff like on the phone before they wash their hands. Yeah, they'll wipe and then they'll hold their phone again. What do you do if you don't take your toilet in there? I mean your phone in there. Or if you're not taking your toilet in there, there's something wrong. There's just some honourable mentions as well. Sponges that you use to clean stuff at home. Yeah, they stink as well if you leave them too long.

One of the filthiest ones, this is the second thing, the petrol things that you fill your car up with petrol. Yeah. The public ones. Oh yeah, we haven't even thought about it. Yeah, the petrol pump. I never even thought about it. Yeah, they are the second most filthiest thing

apparently you can touch in the world. But the number one filthiest thing in existence, apart from even more filthy than toilet seats, is a man's beard. Yep, and Sam Neill, I can't remember why, but he was in years ago and he let me like stroke his beard or tickle it or something. I just got a photo of me like tickling the underneath of his delicious beard. Now as much as all the men on this show tried... Luscious beard, not delicious beard, luscious. Delicious. Did you lick it?

Tasted like cinnamon. As much as all the men on this show tried, there's only one man on this show that has successfully grown a beard. One real man. Producer Kyle, you're touching it right now. Hi, yeah I'm touching it. I will say that your beard, when I look at it, it does look clean and well kept. Thanks, Brian. And I clean it, and I clean it and I oil it.

I keep it trimmed, fairly trimmed. And I'd argue maybe that your bed might be cleaner than other men's beds, because I do see other beds sometimes and I go, that is a filthy bed. By the way, it's beard. Beard. I just feel like some people might be hearing that we say, well, Carl's the only one with a beard. They're like, wonder who the other four sleep.

Thought that idea would have paid okay. There's meant to be this thing as well, that like men with beds have better immune systems, because we carry so much bacteria. Around your face. Yeah, around your face, but yeah. I also, when I was filling up my car this morning, I rubbed it all over the head,

so it's kind of gross this morning. So then if you're a girl who's with a guy with a massive bed, then every time you're going for a kiss, it's like filthier than like, if you were to lick a toilet seat daily. Oh yeah. True, but maybe girlfriends of guys with beards have better immune systems

because they're constantly patching their beard. Maybe. That's true as well, and they also have like kind of calloused upper lips from the patch. So I have less chance of getting sick if I licked the handle of a dumbbell in the gym than making out with Carl.

A little nibble on his beard. Dumbbells did make the list, but they were outside the top 10, 12th of the dirtiest things you can touch. So I thought next week we need to get a couple of agar plates in here, a couple of swabs. We go swab a toilet seat, and then we swab producer Carl's beard.

And we see which one comes back filthier. Sounds like something we need his consent for. Carl? I'd be honored, guys. I definitely get paid enough for this year. And Carl, can you please organise all the swabs as well? Yes please, for god's sake. Hey if anyone hasn't had their flu jab, come give me a kiss, we're open. Clint, Megan, Dan.

Good luck to both of you, we're about to find out who unknowingly celebrated the most. This week there are random celebrations for every day of the year, we don't normally focus on them too much except for around this time on a Friday. And you might have celebrated as well, so you can play along. Now, you both may not have celebrated this day, but if you can give me some sort of a week tie-in, I'll try and give one of you the points. Dan won last week.

Ooh, it's gonna be tricky for you to get Mondays. National Women's Checkup Day. I always... I got nothing. I love that you tried to, though. I always... Go on. I got nothing. Yeah. I love that you tried to though. It was, I went to a pink room and breakfast the other day and learnt about self-checking my breasts and I did.

And everyone should be doing that once a month. Have you been checking out any breasts this week Dan? Oh sometimes checkmades. I think I still gotta give Meg the point. Thank you so much for that Clint. So generous. It is important. Okay, I don't know if you can get this on either Dan.

Tuesday was donate a day's wages to charity day. Oh Meg, there's no chance that either of us are doing that. Clint, no, who's donating a day's wages? Okay, Dan, I'm trying to think. I'm trying to think of how I can get around this. Okay, well when have you donated anything then to charity? I don't know, okay, the other day, charity, which I'm not going to say came to my door, and it was a charity I donate to already.

Yeah, and Dan, then I literally saw you on Google history the next day saying, how do I get off the charity list? Because then I was donating twice. That's right, Dan was trying to work out how he could cancel his credit card, so it was almost like they reminded Dan that he was giving them money every week, and he was like, how do I stop that? Meg you're gonna win the point because Dan's like actually in the negative. I also purchased a gift for me the other day. When? For your pregnancy. When? You haven't given it to me. Yeah I went in on a group gift.

Oh you went in on a group gift that somebody else organized. Charity. She's not a charity. Okay, Wednesday, dance like a chicken day. He's doing it better. That's not even a real day, I just want to see if either of you would do it. Idiots. I was gonna go with accent day but I thought I might get you guys in trouble. Oh no. Megan, her accent, you don't want to risk that. So it's still 2-0, Dan you're gonna need this.

International Disappointment Day was yesterday, it was a lot of work with me. Give it to Dan, give it to Dan. You know what else I would have accepted? When we supposed to catch up with that dude from Jeremy Clarkson? Jeremy Clarkson, that was a huge disappointment. Oh, you were supposed to interview Jeremy Clarkson in person. You were supposed to come to the studio. But no, you said I work with Meg. Yeah, and unfortunately Meg, you didn't give me anything, so I'm going to have to give

it to Dan. I actually had started to say just give it to Dan, just because, you know, look at him. Look at him. Yeah. And today is Megan Fox appreciation day. My name is Megan. I have loved Megan Fox for many years. I have posted sort of her on my walls.

Do you? I did. Oh god, no, no. I was a grown woman. Poor guy. No, I did though. I have posters of her. Yeah, it's her birthday today, so I think that's why she gets her own appreciation day. And there's no one that appreciates her more than Clint. Yeah, that is true.

Yeah, which means... I would Meg wins! Well done. Thank you so much. What an appreciative person. Thank you. I really appreciate that. She's disappointing, she can still win some things. Put on your Meg.

How is the canceling the AP for the charity going by the way? It's quite hard to cancel a direct debit. That's the problem, that's how they get you, those sneaky charities. The AP you can just cancel with a few clicks. The kids are still getting my $25 a year. A year! Clint, Meg and Dan. Your favourite new song could have just dropped this morning.

One, two, three, four. New music, Friday. Brand new. Welcome to the party we've got here. I was very lucky to have listened to Mitch James' latest and final album. Oh god, I feel like a long time ago, no, maybe a year ago, maybe a little little less and I know it's out this today so you should definitely check it out I think it's his best work he's ever done which is like awesome that he's in on such a high but kind of sad because we're not gonna be getting any more of it

and he's released his final single this one's called Spiderweb It's got like Justin Bieber vibes. Love it. You want to go out on a good album, right? Because the risk is if he's kept going and then he releases a bit of a crap at the next one. Yeah, yeah, the whole album is tight. He's actually joining us after eight o'clock for Talk Sporty to Me, and we will play it in full at about quarter past eight

this morning. Cash has released a song which I think is really fun for TikTok music. You know, I can see people creating videos to this. It's called boy crazy. I'm obsessive, I'm exciting, I want it. All the boys lately find me out and entertain me. I'm boy crazy, I'm obsessive, my heart's racing, I want it. All the boys lately are... Bit of fun right? Yeah. Catchy. I mean yeah, it's maybe not gonna be number one but I think it's a bit of fun. Lola Young has written a song about how she just wants

to sleep with somebody, she doesn't want a relationship with them, she is just horny for that person's body. Have a listen, it's called One Thing. ["One Thing"] Oh. I only want one thing, I don't even want your number Don't care if you got another Cause tonight I'm your only lover And I'ma give you that one thing Don't care if you've got another So she'll sleep with you even if you're in a relationship

Yeah, she's basically saying like how much she just wants this person's body And she's like I don't want to get to know you, I don't want your number I don't care if you're with somebody else, I want to have sex with you so bad Don't girls hate that girl? Cause they're like you know that he's got a girlfriend or a wife in your stool. I think it's a she, cause she talks about going. And remember the last, the guy she talked about in messy.

God, he sounds like a piece of work, so she's going on to girls now. Yeah, maybe, yeah, well, possibly a bit of both. Anyway, but yeah, I see what you mean, Clint. It's like- I thought there was a, like girls don't like that girl. When they know that that girl's actively just going out hooking up with whoever they want.

Let's go on to Avicii's new song, Post-Humorously. Post-Humorously, no, that's not it. That just means he was humorous in the past. I know. And he's not funny anymore. He's not funny anymore. What's that actually, what is it?

You don't even know. Post-Humous, I think it's like, yeah, that's how it's said. He's doing a release a song with L I think it's like, yeah that's how it's done. Ummm, he's doing a song, a release of a song with Al King, it's called Let's Ride Away. Very Avicii right? If I heard this I'd say it's Avicii. You'd think, because he was a DJ, he would have had laptops and like hard drives full of heaps of tunes. Yeah, which I think have been finished by friends and stuff now.

Yeah. And here it goes. Very Evigy. But my pick of the week, the song that I found myself liking instantly is from G Flip. I actually got producer Nipia to get a bit of the end of the song, so there's a key change. This is going into the final chorus. It shows off her, I'm sorry, the pipes of how good a singer they are it's called Disco Disco Cowgirl I'm watching you dancing on the table saying oh baby I never felt this way Oh, walking away

Catchy enough. Catchy. Yeah, you're right. That is the pick of the week. Just instantly good. If we're not including Miss James. Yeah, of course. Um, oh, I just instantly found myself like bopping in the car and I'm like that doesn't

happen with many songs straight away I think they've done a great job of it. Just go cowgirl by G Flip Clint, Meg and Dan. It's Clint, Meg and Dan's Friday 16th of May what you got Meg? Yeah people talking all around the world This has been talked about actually that the three New Zealand MPs who performed the haka, you remember Hanna Rawati, who did the haka in Parliament, and it went absolutely mental viral. Do you remember? Yeah. They received the harshest ever penalty issued to parliamentarians.

They have been temporarily suspended for it. Because of that. So they've been deciding what to do as a repercussion for it. And now they've just come out with it. Yeah so two of them I think were three weeks right and one of them was a week. Yeah yeah. But I mean yeah it's interesting because there's two sides to I think there is a rule in Parliament where you're not allowed to do anything. Like what they call an outburst. Outburst. And I guess that that could be considered an outburst. I guess you've got to set a precedent otherwise then if you get a bit of a smack on the hand then everyone goes, okay.

Well yeah, Judith Collins, the Attorney General and committee chair, said it was the toughest punishment the committee had ever handed out and the worst incident they have ever seen. Make no mistake, her words, make no mistake,

again, her words, this was a very serious incident, the likes of which I've never seen before in my 23 years in the debating chamber. So yeah, I know many, many, many, millions of people disagree, but as you said, like, I guess... Judith Collins is one of those MPs, though, that's just always whinging about something, isn't she?

She's always complaining. She's never, like, doing something good, like, from the outside looking in anyway. Politicians are always whinging, aren't they? It definitely feels like that kind of, like, they they're kind of like, stay in line, right? They're all kind of like going, stay in line, don't be naughty, and don't do what you're not allowed to do. And I, yeah, I think it's shit, personally. Now the story that's doing the rounds this morning is a guy by the name of Liam Ward,

who lives in Christchurch, and he's been living a nightmare for the last 12 years, because he's got the same name and birthday as a convicted criminal. And so there's another Liam Ward that's got multiple criminal convictions, significant outstanding debt, and is believed to be living in the same area

as this other Liam Ward. The problem is that Liam is now, the good Liam, is trying to leave the country to go overseas to the States. And apparently he's now nervous because he keeps getting mistaken for this guy that they're gonna stop him at customs for his outstanding debt. So that's a coincidence, right? He's got the same name, same birthday, lives in the same area as a really convicted criminal.

You almost need to carry like a certificate of authenticity that you're like... I'm the good one. You're the good version. Yeah. That like, I don't know, maybe the Prime Minister gives you to travel. And Meg, I imagine this might have been you, like in high school, right? Let's say there's an assignment and then you like absolutely forgot it was due in the morning that you've arrived and the teacher goes, cool. So we're all presenting and you go, oh my heart.

Maybe if you are that type of person, you could be an artist because there's an Italian artist, which I feel like he wasn't ready. And so he has an exhibit set up. It's a five by five space, like feet, five by feet space. And it's an invisible sculpture. Brilliant. And he sold his invisible sculpture. He's got gloves on and he's kind of like showing people it, which is invisible. He sold it to somebody for $18,000.

It's the Hunger Games. We're in the Hunger Games. Nightmare. Right? That's so dystopian. That's crazy. The buyer received a certificate of authenticity and the artist said that it does exist of air and spirit. How? What? Yeah, I mean, honestly, I'm not surprised that people believe in that. I really am not. It just makes me... how do people that dumb

and selfish get rich? I don't, you know what I mean? Because it's true. Like if you're gonna be that stupid and selfish, because it's both, to buy an invisible sculpture, then why do you deserve money over people that are like, it just makes me so angry, the art world. But art is one of those things that like,

sometimes you just look at it, you know, that's not art. Like, there was one time someone made millions of dollars because they put a shark in formaldehyde, a dead shark, and they put it in some thing, and like some exhibit, and it sold for millions. What about the one where the dude just... Banana to the wall.

Yeah, just duct taped banana. That's right. Banana to the wall. They got a lot more than 18,000, but this guy doesn't even need a banana. It's just invisible sculpture. Incredible. It's just crazy.

18 grand. So. But the thing is it pisses me off because I wish I thought of it. Right. Are we going to catch up with Olivia next? If you don't know Olivia, she's having her 40th next weekend

and she asked if we would perform our very first song as a band, MCDC, at her birthday. An incredible, memorable event, where she's got 80 of her friends and family coming to an RSA. She works in the Navy, and she said they got two kegs of espresso martini, so I think they're gonna have a big send,

and they want us to perform. We're wondering now, a week out, with how our practices are going, whether she's regretting that decision or not. Maybe we play a bit later than we said we were going to, just so they're a little bit more drunk. Yeah, and they're just a little bit more complimentary with their review. Not a bad idea, actually, boys, not a bad idea.

All right, we'll find out how she's going. She's in Romania for work at the moment, so she might be a little primed already with the time difference. Ooh, she's in Romania for work. I don't think she's wasted. Well, she said to producer Kyle she might be drinking. Oh wow. She's got to be more lenient then. She's on a massive night out. I said, how tipsy are you going to be?

She goes, think Dan in Portugal. So that's what she said to me. Right. Dan didn't drink anything. He got naked on a beach. Yeah, I wasn't drunk. Maybe she's naked then, I don't know. I don't know, whatever. She's in Romania. She's naked. Oh my god, not this't know. I don't know, whatever. She's a Romanian. Naked?

Oh my god, not this weekend, but next weekend. It's happening. Clint, Meg and Dan are on a mission to see if they can start a band with zero prior musical experience. And after being turned down to open for Mitch James. That was so shit. I love you all individually as people, but as a band,

one of the worst. We started hunting for a new event to play at. My 40th. It's at the Devonport RSA. An RSA? Oh, I've always wanted to play an RSA. And I've got kegs of espresso martini. Kegs of espresso! You should have led with that! So it's official. The gig's locked in and the date is set.

And now practices are rolling smoothly too. Until Yaz decided she wanted to join the band as well. This bit here. Before Dan starts. The thing is it's quite a subtle part of the song and I don't know if Yaz does subtle well. Okay we have Olivia whose birthday we are playing at next weekend and we're just wondering what her feelings are. I just do know, she's in Romania for work but she's knocked off because they're heading home tomorrow

so they're having a bit of a bender. Morning Olivia. Live from Romania, Liv, hi. Hi, how are you? Good, how are you? I'm a little bit drunk. Is this like, is this a pre-40th for you because you're getting, you know,

you're in your 40th in a couple of weeks time so you're kind of like, ah, it's early birthday celebrations, right? Yeah, I'm just practicing. Yeah, it's good. It's good to practice Liv. It's good to practice. What's taking you to Romania? Because it is for work, right? Yeah, I had to attend a conference this week, so I'm here for the week. Conference? I'm flying home tomorrow.

Conference? Maybe. Liv is doing it really well. You know that thing where you're trying to get into another club or bar and you're trying to pretend you're like way more sober than you really are. You're doing a great job. Really good job. Great acting. But it does mean hopefully that you're- Because my husband and kids are probably listening in New Zealand.

Yeah, they are. They are. They're texting in right now and they're going home. And they think you're over on a work trip, you know, everything's above board. Like, mum's drinking, what's going on? Liv, I don't know how much you've heard of Us Practicing, but how are you feeling about it? Since you're a bit licked up, I think you'll be honest.

I've been watching the videos, and I think it's gonna be good, and I've also heard that Yaz wants to get in the band. Yeah, she got- My friends have been messaging me to update. Yeah, she got denied yesterday, unfortunately, so she wouldn't make it into the band. Because, Olivia, we are taking it proper serious,

and we didn't think she had the same level of seriousness. So it isn't a joke for us. We know this is your proper 40th birthday party, and that comes with a certain level of responsibility. I know, yeah, I hope it's really good. OK. I will guarantee you, Olivia, that it will be one of the best performances you'll ever see. Oh you couldn't even say it straight. Okay let's have a little listen.

This is the chorus Olivia if you haven't heard it. Okay it will be better than this, this is where we're at. I'm gonna take a picture of that baby Yeah I'm gonna take a picture of that baby Listen to all the babies, baby with me Thoughts? I give it like a 10. A 10?! She is drunk, she's out of 100%

The wheel fell off at the end. You're happy with that though, I love. Oh, it's gonna be great. Yes. What if we sweeten, we thought we could sweeten the deal with Neepia, who's our producer who's going to be on bass. He plays in a band, Sam Cullen Band. What if they take over and do a few decent covers afterwards? Would you like a live band there for a wee while as a bit of a trade off for letting

us perform at your birthday? Yeah, that would be cool. An actual legitimate live band that do proper shows. They're at RMV. Yeah, nah, we cool. Yeah, an actual legitimate live band that do proper shows. They're at RMV. Yeah, no, we'll jump in Olivia. We can play for another half hour, hour afterwards and keep the music going if you want. Liv isn't gonna remember this.

So we'll organise it with you when you're sober. Yeah, we'll go through the actual logistics. We could have said Liv, we've got a goose that's gonna go up there and honk for the rest of the night. You happy with that? Oh, that was supposed to be a surprise. That was mental.

No, you're not gonna have it next weekend. She's gonna go, there and honk for the rest of the night. You happy with that? Oh, that was supposed to be a surprise. That was mental. No, it wasn't gonna happen next weekend. She's gonna go, where's the goose? I've been constantly golden eggs. I don't wanna know about it. Okay, well now you know about the goose. We'll see you next Saturday. Thanks, Liv. Yeah, it's gonna be fun.

Jeez, we have, what is it? Eight days. Yeah, I think we have to do the song twice. As well, we'll do it once, and that's the performance. Then Nipia's band plays, and then we close up the night again with the song. Do our band play Teenage Dirtbag as well after you guys? No, no, no, we don't need you showing us up. Thank you very much.

Dan, I might be in bed by that point. What are you talking about? Yeah, we won't have a drummer. Oh God. But the real drummer could drum. Oh, that's right. I am the real drummer. How dare you?

Well, then you better stay. Oh God. Meg's like, I'm going home. Will I that's right. Hey, I am the real drummer, how dare you? Well then you better stay. Oh god. Meg's like, I'm going home, will I get another drummer? No, I'm the drummer. It's not very rock and roll to go home to bed. Alright, somebody rock and roll to bed in your third trimester learning the drums. You missed the goose laying the egg.

Oh yeah, the goose. Come on, stick around. Honestly, now I really want the goose. Does he not have a goose? We need a goose. Okay, I'll get a badge. We'll get have a goose? We need a goose. Okay. I want her to be edge. We'll give you guys a job.

Yeah, yes, yes. If you want her in the band, you're on Finding a Goose. Goose patrol. Okay, Meg's got a scandal of day we're gonna get to next. Yes, I do. It's actually Liv will be able to relate to this.

Kylie Jenner has put up a video of her sister Kendall, very intoxicated on a holiday. And you know when it's funny at the time because you're in it and it's like, you're also over drunk. Don't post drunk. Don't post drunk, don't post drunk, Clint. Oh God, it's bad.

Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh my gosh. It's Kendall with Meg. Okay, Kylie Jenner has posted a video of her drunken sister Kendall Jenner on a beach. It's like a minute long and it's Kendall, obviously quite intoxicated who found a rock on a beach it's like a minute long and it's Kendall obviously quite intoxicated who found a rock on a beach and she's asking the camera if it's coral or a

rock and then she finds a bigger rock and says it's its brother and gives it a name. God she must have been drunk. But in the time I can see if I'm with my best friends I'm on a beach and I like, tipsy to drunk on cocktails, everything's the best. Everything's hilarious. I get it, but don't film it and upload it. You would think if anyone knows that rule, it's the Kardashians and the Jenners.

True. They're the most famous people in the world. People are trying to pepper out, like, papp them all the time. Why would you do it to your own sibling? I think that's why I find it cringey, because obviously Kendall thinks it's quite funny. Otherwise it'll be taken down.

You think for a second that it- She hasn't taken it down still. It's not been taken down. Still there? As far as, yeah, let me check again. I thought someone just screenshot and put it on the internet. So now she's buggered.

No, no, it was like a main post. It wasn't even a story. It is her sister that uploaded it though. So maybe she's like, no, I'm not taking it down. And there's a bit of a fight between them. Three hours ago, drunk beach walks with Kendall in joy. Rock or coral? Take a boat down below.

Rock or coral? I think he's sitting. I love you. Okay, it's gonna go. Okay, it's gonna go. Take a look. Oh shit. Oh my God.

Oh shit. It's getting activated. It's getting activated. What is that? What is that? What is that? What is that? What is it? What is it? It's a whale! I found a big one, his brother. It's his brother, Kylie.

Do you know what I think's happened? Throw Edward back in the water. Let's go Edward, let's bring you home, okay? Do you know what's happened? She's got a paid post coming up. She's trying to get some organic content in the mix so it doesn't look like she's just doing... Oh no, this was a paid post for her drink company. Really? No, she's tagged to do alcohol company drink sprinter.

Hey, I think if you're talking to rocks, it's not alcohol. I disagree, I've talked to Rox drunk. Have you? Yes, I've talked to Rox. I'll be honest, I do want to try the alcohol she just tagged now. If I start giving Rox names, yeah, give it a jam. I wonder if that alcohol is laced with mushies. That rock had a mouth to her.

Your chance to win some cash if Dan is successful after 8.30 this morning. Who dares? Who dares? Who dares? Who dares? Dan! Who dares Dan? Yeah! He's back. Yeah, he's back. Every Friday Dan has to go full flavour and complete the deer that we have set for him. All thanks to our Mother Earth Nutty Sensations. You'll win a prize pack and $500 cash.

In the past, Dan has done a bunch of embarrassing and difficult tasks. This one falls into the embarrassing category when he had to just in public open up a can of baked beans at a bus stop and just down into his pants. This one was pathetic. Oh my God. Straight down.

Oh my God. Okay, I'm just gonna do a little bit of a jiggle. Wow, okay. Oh, it's cold. They are completely covering my- The bosses hated that one. That was my favourite, if I'm being honest. Well, the thing was-

I thought it was hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing. I was in the hospital when that happened. I was going through like some of the baby. Thankfully, everything okay. That was the only thing that made me smile over my two days in hospital. God, how pathetic I know. And as Dan was walking back to the studio we made him walk back all the beans just slowly dripping out the bottom of his pants Oh god it made me laugh. Horrible feeling. Then there was the time that we dropped him off in town And we said you have 60 seconds to fully submerge yourself in water

And Dan had to hurry, but he managed to do it. There's a fountain here at Winyard Quarter. I'm going in right now. There's a man cleaning it at this stage. Sorry sir. Go for it. Okay here we go count me down. Oh god! Fully submerged! I'm even rolling around in it! The thing is when I came up after fully submerging my mouth, the man that was cleaning the thing said, I haven't cleaned the duck poo out of that part yet. So you would just say, okay, thanks for saying that beforehand. Yeah, you could have told me.

And then for Mother's Day you end up knocking on a random door asking if the mum was home and singing them karaoke for like a sing-a-gram. Hello, my name's Dan. Turn the karaoke machine on. I'm here to do a sing-a-gram. Oh hello! My name's Dan. Turn the karaoke machine on. I'm here to do a sing-a-gram for you for Mother's Day. Here we go. Hit the jams. Who from?

She said who from. He has a bad... I think he enjoyed this one too much. We actually ended up having women cry. Say an odd cry of Dan. Someone messaged me and said they had to pull over on their way to work because they were bawling their eyes out crying. The idea of Dan saying to it. Oh that's actually nerve-racking to know that there are dangerous drivers like that on the road.

You know, bawling over stuff like that and can't see. Cry at the drop of a hat. Okay so Dan, you are going to be performing your challenge at 8.30. We're going to give you... I reckon you're going to need about half an hour to get into location. Okay, give me the items I need. Okay, can I the items I need. Okay, can I look inside this bag?

Yeah, you can pull them out. Okay, there's a towel, I knew it, I'm getting wet. Brilliant. Okay, there's also... Oh, is that a brand new towel? Or is that an old one? That's a new one. It's not gonna soak up any more.

Oh, nothing worse than a brand new towel. Nothing worse, Glint. A neck brace. Yeah. Okay. Safety first. Some goggles than a neck brace. Yeah. OK. Safety first. Some goggles, a nose clip. OK.

Definitely don't want to lose that. I'm doing a dive or something. And a head. One of those plastic things you put on your head is a swimmer. Swimming like a swimming cap. Yeah, I'm either doing synchronised swimming or I'm diving off some sort of large diving board. That's what I'm guessing.

All right, well, Dan, you do need to leave the studio right now, jump in an edge vehicle. The neck brace does concern me. Right. OK. Well, you've got it, though. So why does it concern you? Well, because I don't want to injure my neck.

I don't want to injure myself. You want the neck brace. We've already thought about it. I'd be concerned if I found out what you were doing and I didn't have one of those. But you do. So. Alright.

Alright. Well, look forward to this. Highlights of the week coming up next in the Producers Diary. In the meantime, Meg and I will just sit here in the warm studio. You get going and we'll cross to you a little later on this morning when you're in location. When are we doing Who Dears Meg? After I give birth, Dan, for God's sake. It's always your excuse.

The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Our long lost Uncle Will passed away. And we're dead serious about giving away his cash. This is the Edge. Will to win. Alright, you gotta fit the bill to win the will. The criteria if you missed it was this. The person I'm looking for has Netflix, they're a millennial and they're missing a body part. Netflix, they're a millennial and they're missing a body part.

If that's you, you could be the person that Uncle Will is talking about that wants to leave you $750. It's the most amount of money he has left to somebody. You will have to pass the security question to prove you are the right person because quite a few people, surprisingly actually, are again about this one. Carla, you think it might be you he's looking for? Yes, definitely. OK, you've got Netflix. Yep. Is it yours or do you leech off someone's looking for? Yes, definitely. Okay, you've got Netflix? Yep.

Is it yours or do you leech off someone else's account? It's mine. Oh, good for you. You're a millennial? Yes. Okay. And what body part are you missing? My leg.

Oh bloody hell. Okay, that's a whole body part. How did that happen? Through choice, actually. Through choice? Did someone... Life was too easy and and you're like how can I just do this? Did you get elective surgery to cut it off of something was something wrong with it? Yep yep yep I was born with a club foot. Yeah right and you were like you know what lob it off at one point. How old were you when you decided that it's a big decision yeah yeah and was it about 30?

yeah and you're like I'm done yeah no regrets you actually are like this is the best thing I've decided? No regrets. Oh my gosh. Do you have one of those like prosthetic attachments so like yeah yeah yeah how long does it take to master that? Wow, do you get any phantom feelings? I had a family friend once that it was in a motorcycle accident And he lost his leg and he used to get like itches or pains in it, but his leg wasn't there Yep And did you keep it because I've heard of people keeping body parts in the freezer because it feels so strange

just to get rid of it. Yeah, no, I did not. But do you have the option to, when they take it off, do they ask you? Yep, yep. They ask me if I wanted to be awake, if I wanted to keep it, or if I wanted to keep it to action. Awake!

You said you wanted to be awake, what? You said no, you said no, surely. I said no, yes. no surely? I said no, yes. Awake! Alright Carla, let's see if this is you that we're looking for. You'll apparently know the answer to this question if you're the right person. So this is the last hurdle. For $750 you've just got to give us the answer to this within 5 seconds.

Here it is. Now he's not missing any but he does have some extra ones. Harry Styles has four of what body part? Nipples. Yeah! You are the person that Uncle Will was looking for. $750 has been left to you and his will, Carla. Thank you.

Very welcome. You have a bloody good Friday, Carla. Thank you for listening. I love, you must've just been like, oh my god, that's me. Millennial Netflix, missing a body part. Oh my god, they're talking about me. Yeah, yeah. Okay.

That's all yours, Carla. And we do have another $250 that Uncle Will is trying to give away coming up at nine. Yeah. And also another $500 to win with Hoodie as Dan within the next sort of 20 minutes. Before then though, one of our absolute favourites, his album just dropped today. Here's finally the album. Mitch James joins us in studio.

We'll debut his latest single and he talks sporty to us. The sports wrap up going into the weekend. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. We don't know everything about sports, but luckily for us, former musician turned sports podcaster Mitch James does. This is Talk Sporty to me.

Mitch James, welcome bro. Pleasure to be back. Just regarding to Dan, I don't think anyone's going to be getting that $500 because I've heard about the challenges. Good luck Dan, wherever you are in Auckland right now. But yes, Talk Sporty with me. It is back for a second week. Thank you for having me by the way. Of course. So I didn't get to speak that much about my my beautiful first love my Warriors last week too too much so

Saturday night I'll set the scene it was an ugly rainy messy night and and and St. George Illawarra over in Sydney and the Warriors raced out to a 14-0 lead. We're looking great. Sexy Luke Metcalf, he scores a try early on. Tain Tūowopiki, who's our little winger, who's a little pocket rocket, for those who don't know the Warriors, he scores again. We're looking amazing, right?

We're looking incredible. First half, out 14-0. And we're going, okay, this is amazing. Yeah. Fast forward 20 minutes, it's 14-all. We're not looking good. Okay, that's getting scary now. How much time's left? We have 11 minutes left. The 69th minute, believe it or not, Nick. Oh, wow, okay, now I'm interested.

We get the ball back to Sexy Luke. He slots back, hits a drop goal which is one point in Rugby League. We win 15-14. I love the Warriors as everyone knows. I'm not enjoying this season because it is so, so hard on the heart. My heart rate literally got up to 165. I've been tracking it that's like zone zone for heart rate which is like there's only five heart rates and five is basically your next to having a heart attack so I was not enjoying it but what I am enjoying is that the Warriors are second on the ladder guys second on the ladder best start in years. We've only been around for 30 years our best start in 30 years so shout out to the boys very proud of you. When's the next game? The next game is this Saturday at 5 p.m. against the Dolphins. Tune in. Meagan the

reason why you want to watch that game is because Herbie Funworth is... He's beautiful. He's the guy I said is the most attractive looking guy in the NRL. Oh, it's only I had a friend who was hosting it round at his place with all the boys. Well, yeah, all the boys are coming. You'd be the only girl at the lads' night. Oh, I better not come then. Well, I just know the amount of attention you would get from 30 football lads. I don't know if you could handle it.

Yeah. And so speaking of last week, I got a bit of trouble for calling the women the girlies so I apologise for that everyone but our Black Ferns they walloped the Wallaroos 38 to 12 and I'm not sure where the game was but they absolutely smashed them there's a young fullback called Braxton I can't remember her last name at the moment but she's only 18 years old she had an absolute stunner scored a great try and the other rugby the Crusaders unfortunately my second team they lost to the Chiefs Damien McKenzie came back and had an absolute blinder he's the guy who smiles. So again guys talk sporty for me I'm

trying to make this for the guys and girls who know who Travis Kelsey is but don't know what position he plays so we're trying to simplify a little bit. Moana Pacifica, who are a team solely comprised of Pacific Island players and one white dude, they got their first ever win over the Highlanders this weekend and last weekend in Dunedin, which was an incredible game. Milani Matavau scored a charge down try in the last minute. So basically what happened. To win it? To win it.

So basically what happened is the Highlanders had the ball in their own half. They were trying to kick it out. Milani runs out the line, puts his body on the line, almost gets hit in the head, ball hits his hands. Saves it. Saves it, scores the winning try. Amazing. Moana are a fairy tale team this

year so basically no one gave them a chance. They're a team of basically guys who weren't looked at by the bigger teams and they are the underdogs, big underdogs. Remember the movie The Replacements? No. You know? No? The only sports movie I've seen is The Blind Side. Yeah, that does make sense. Kind of like a team of Michael Awe's.

I get it. I get that. Yeah, so no one gave them a chance and they are killing it. And finals contention. And lastly, our man Ryan Fox, who's New Zealand's best golfer, he's on the PGA Tour, which is the big dogs. So he won his first ever tournament this week. And so you know, we've got the, you hit off the tee, right? You want to hit it on the fairway. There's also the rough, which is the bad stuff.

The tall grass. Got it. So his second shot, he hit it just off the green into the bad stuff. Yeah, rough. He needs to get this shot in to win. It's very unlikely. There's 50 feet between him and the pin. Bang. Ryan Fox to win it. I think it was a 2 million US dollar prize. Chips it in from 50 feet away. Everyone goes bonkers. Every golfer back home in New Zealand goes bonkers We're super proud of our boy Foxy It's his first ever PGA Tour win on the FedEx Cup and he's come back a lot richer this week So shout out to our man Foxy. I'm sure sure he'd be a friend of Talk Sporty with me if he ever

Had ever heard of it. We'll get him on next week. We'll get him on maybe not next week. Maybe one day we'll get him on, but that's our wrap. So we've got our beautiful, lovely warriors taking home second place. We've got the Chiefs beating the Crusaders, Moana, who are in finals contention, a fairy tale story. Our wonderful Black Ferns, top of the world again and Ryan Fox the magic man with a massive chip in to win. That is our week in sports and

thank you for having me guys. And does it get well you gotta stick around bro you got a new album to drop today. Oh yeah I almost forgot. And a brand new single. My last album came out today. See I'm a dedicated sports media journalist now. Mitch James just dropped today his album is out now. He joins us in the studio. Yeah I forgot I was a musician for a second there but um yeah last ever album today very exciting. It's called This Is Not What I Had In Mind which is sort of alluding to the fact that music is it's not the industry that I got into anymore and it's a very crazy, crazy place at the moment. So without bagging it too much. So it's, yeah, a lot's changed, a lot's changed in my life,

but especially the industry. So I just wanted to put on the best songs that I've written over the past few years. Like there's, you know, if you just heard that one, Spiderweb, that's more of an upbeat one, which I'm hoping to get on a Spider-Man movie. But there's also, you know, there's other songs which are slower, more heartfelt, and I think as a songwriter, this is my best work. Like it sort of portrays all emotions of life, and, you know, that one's a bit of fun that you just heard, but there's a lot deeper ones You know, there's there's songs about my mom. There's songs about someone in my family going through a mental health crisis. There's You know, I couldn't do an album without a breakup song. I couldn't do an album without a few love songs as well

So it's um, and you'll hear those as well if you're in Christchurch 24th of May. Absolutely. Absolutely Yeah, we're down to down to very, very slim pickings for tickets as well. So that's cool. I'm announcing my openers in a few days. And so, ouch. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's a sensitive topic in this room. My bad.

Before I get to her. We auditioned to open for match and he said we weren't good enough. Well, no, Meg was. Meg was good enough. But yeah, Clint sort of let down the team there and Dan was a work in progress but I mean Clint was yeah it was terrible. Wait do you hear how good we are now? Very interested to see who replace us. I do want to call out my favourite song from the album which is My Favourite Colour I Told You This Is Never Been Closed by me.

Yes. I told you this isn't anything close to me. But yes. ["It's Not Like The Ocean"] I love that song. I love that song. I'm really proud of that song. It's like a wedding song. People get married to that 100%. What about the lads? I got to say Bosch in a song. How good. How good. And a four letter combination that I probably won't say on the edge. But yeah, look, that song I actually wrote a while ago and it's been on an export beer campaign for a long time as well. So yeah, I'm glad to have that one out. It was a lot of fun writing that one.

I wrote that in a very short amount of time. I was over in LA when I was doing the whole LA songwriting thing and I'd just come back from like a mint New Year's and kissy with the lads and it was it was just like real refreshing to like to just spend time with my mates like that though I hadn't seen a few of them and spent good time with them like that since Dunedin which is an age ago now so it was I just felt like I wanted to honor the lads one more time even though you know, I'm 30 in a month or so, it's like, it's always good to just have that young feeling,

you know what I mean? So that was an ode to the lads, so I aptly called it the lads. And I got to say Bosch in a song, which I'm very happy about. Hey, MC DCA, gonna be taking to the stage at Olivia's 40th next weekend. Oh wow, congrats! Yeah, we got a cake! And an RSA, so... Oh wow, wow.

Yeah, not quite a concept, but... 80 close friends and family though. Why did you pick that one day that I can't come? I know! And Olivia has two kegs of espresso martini. Wow. Plus our rider that she also still has to fulfill. Are you doing a

cover of espresso? No, absolutely nothing to do with NZ. Teenage Dirtbags are a song. Okay. One thing quickly before you go, do you have a thing? Because we're trying to look for a thing for our band that we're known for doing. Dan wants a thing. I know what Dan wants, a crowd surf does something or? Yeah, I don't know if that's gonna happen at a RSA, at a RZA, but my thing is shoeys, and it was just forced on me, really. Like, one... So, I'll take you back. This is how it started.

It was Bay Dreams in Tauranga in 2019, I believe, 2019, and so basically I went on stage, and at these festivals you don't get a sound check like you just kind of get pushed on yeah and so we got on stage and none of our equipment was working. Oh I'm bad, how are you bad? Yeah and so I was up there and I was like okay sink or swim someone throw me a shoe so someone threw me a shoe and then I had a shoey and then this song the sorry the equipment didn't get fixed for another like five minutes so I actually had

another two shoeys and sculled another beer in the midst of that so I was like four, I mean I was already a couple beers deep but I had four beverages in very quick succession within like three minutes and I think I nailed it, I don't know. If anyone was there, you can text in and see think I nailed it. If anyone was there can text in and see if I nailed it or if I was completely off key for the next hour or so but that's how it came about and then literally I never wanted to be the Chewy guy but every single show I end up doing a Chewy. So what do we do? We have to be open to do, well Jan can do a Chewy, I could eat a little bowl of mac and cheese or something.

I don't know, we can look into it. It's an IC! Hey guys, and this is Mick. She always eats a bowl of mac and cheese. If you want to get photos, you better hurry. Mac and cheese, mac and cheese. Thank you, Mitch. All the best with the new album. Get Amongst It is out today.

This is not what I had in mind. Clip, Megan Dan. Who dares? Who dares? Who dares? Who dares? Dan! Who dares Dan? All thanks to Mother Earth. Nutty sensations, go full flavour with the berry shortcake and caramelised onion and vinaigrette. Oh god, so good. Actually I saw a packet floating around the office. I'm going to go get it. Yeah.

So you'll win that and $500 if Dan completes his deer this morning. He is currently at Oraki Basin in Auckland in a wetsuit. He is being rigged up. Are you there, Dan? I am here, guys. Now, can you hear me? We had some technical issues.

Oh, wait. Just talk one more time. You might be repeating one second. Hello. Yeah, we'll go there. Okay, we'll go there, all right. That's better. If you wanna check out the livestream,

you can text live to 3343 to see Dan's surroundings and what he is about to do. But are you in the water, in the boat? What's going on? I'm in the boat. I'm in a very expensive looking, powerful boat. It's got a V8 engine apparently capable of doing 75 miles per hour on water. I don't know what I'm doing with this boat. It would be about 120-130k.

Damn yeah 120k. Yeah okay so Dan what is going to happen as we know you can't water ski, can you? I've never tried, Clint, to be honest, so hopefully that's not what we're doing. Great news, great news, there's no water skiing. But the thing is with water skiing is I think you use a lot of your lower body for water skiing for balance and stuff

and that's your best bet. Unfortunately, we've taken that bit out and you're just gonna be using your upper body strength. A lot of upper body. Which is not good for you. I told my dad about this and my dad said, when I said, what do you think? Do you reckon someone could do it?

And he goes, yeah. I go, do you reckon Dan could do it? My dad said, not a chance. Okay, Daniel. He's seen Dan on a sea biscuit before. You will have to hold on to a bar that's behind the boat and be dragged behind the boat for 30 seconds and not let go. Yeah so we're gonna toss you out of Tora so it's like

you're water skiing but you aren't given any skis you're just gonna get dragged but you need to hang on as tight as you can and if you're still being dragged behind the boat after 30 seconds you win. 30 seconds? Yeah. My goodness, okay, now this fills me with confidence because I've just been told by the man that's driving the boat that this lake is filled with duck poo and seashells that can cut you open. Right.

And it's a very shallow lake. Okay, well we've given you a neck brace. So, will this run past health and safety? Yeah, it must have. It would have had to have been. We did it, but someone would have. I didn't do it, somebody did it. Yes, you can take us live to 3343

to watch the live stream. It's gonna be up in, I believe. Are you live now, Dan, with Yaz there? Yaz is here. I don't know if the live stream is, I've got nothing to do with the technical aspects of this thing. Dan, are you thinking?

I am going to be holding onto a rope. Are you thinking to going like face first, like on your chest, or are you thinking of rolling over and getting dragged on your back? I would go on my back, yeah I would go on my back because otherwise you're waterboarding yourself. Yeah, eventually... Is it one attempt or two? Face first. It's basically one attempt, if we have time we might...

If you got really close we might let you go another go. If it's abysmal we know you're not going to get it, then we'll flag it. But if you get close enough to deserve another attempt, we might let you go another go. If it's abysmal, we know you're not going to get it. Then we'll flag it. But if you get close enough to deserve another attempt, we might give you two. OK, the saving grace for me is I've got absolutely no upper body strength, no arm strength. Yeah. But my grip strength is brilliant.

You've worked on that a lot, haven't you? Well, it's only just one in my arms. Oh, for God's sake. OK, OK. You're playing for Casey this morning. I believe Casey, do you feel confident, yes or no? Uh... No.

Yes. Dad, it's not looking good. Don't worry. Okay. Dan, can you get in the water? Casey's confidence doesn't fill me with confidence. I will say that. Can you get in the water?

How cold is it at 9 to nine in the morning? Well, I can tell you. Do you want me to get in now? Am I okay to get in? Yeah, get in. Okay, I'm going to go into the back of the ship. Oh my God. Why do I do this? Casey. I'm sorry, you said... Is there a propeller I need to worry about or is this a jet boat? No propeller. I'm going in.

Okay, you said about 20 minutes ago it's your favorite thing to do. Do you remember that, Dan? Yeah, he did. Oh, bloody hell. Okay, you said about 20 minutes ago it's your favourite thing to do. Do you remember that, Dan? Yeah, he did. Oh bloody hell. Okay, you want big? On a fine day morning on a lucky basin in Auckland, it's freezing! My wife's even told her that would be the worst part of this.

Okay Dan, sorry, maybe I shouldn't have got you getting in because you're going to have to wait for three minutes thirty because you're gonna do it after the song. My bad. Oh piss off Clint! Clint, Meg and Dan. If you aren't on Edge Breakfast Insta Live right now I suggest you check it out because Dan is in position and about to attempt his dare. Who dares? Who dares? Dan! Who dares Dan? Every Friday Dan will go full flavour and compete a deer as chosen by Meg and I.

All thanks to Mother Earth. You can win a Nutty Sensations prize back in $500 if he is successful. Shall we cross to him now? He's in the Orakei Basin in Auckland and he is in a wetsuit sitting behind a very powerful boat that is going to drag him behind that boat with a tow rope. Not on skis, not on a wakeboard, he's just going to be dragged and if he can still hang on after 30 seconds, he wins. Yeah and well he wins in case he wins 500 bucks as well because he's not feeling very confident, actually it's the edge in there that has just gone. So if you're looking out for edge NZ on Instagram. Thank you, Meg. Yeah.

All right, Dan, are you still in the water? Sorry, we got you in there a little early. Yeah, I'm under the water. Yeah, I'm under the water. This is the best water I've ever seen. I literally put my hand under the water, and under the water about half a meter and I can't see it. It smells like poo.

I am hating my life right now. Okay, Dan, all you have to do is hang on. Don't let go for 30 seconds and it's over. Okay. The hardest part, I will say sorry as well, is the beginning. You're going to have the most drag in the beginning. Once you actually pop out and you start skimming, you'll skim.

Yeah, the last 25 will be easy. So think like a stone, think like a rock. Dan, we've got Yaz down there who's going to be commentating live on the EGNZ Instagram right now and watching, so let's get into it. Alright, kick it into gear I think. Alright guys. Paul is the driver.

When Paul's ready, Yaz, tell him to hit it. Are we ready, Paul? We're ready. We're ready, alright, starting in. Three, two, one, 30 seconds now. Oh, oh gosh, oh it's all in his face. Oh I've never seen this, oh he's off, he's off. Oh that was a total of five seconds. He's off, oh gosh, oh it's all in his face! Oh I've never seen this before, oh he's off, he's off!

That was a total of five seconds. He's off, I don't think it was five seconds, I think it was about three. I'm watching now, and he's gone. Oh Dan! And we're going back around to our... My goggles have gone out! ...defeated. But I will say this...

What are you saying? His goggles are falling off. I will say this... Yeah? I will say this. What are you saying? His goggles are falling off. I will say this. Yeah? I will say this. That was all a lie. It's like literally impossible to hold because all the duck food has filled with water. It's going into my mouth.

Yeah, actually, all the UK basin is known for a lot of duck peeler. You can stand up in it and it almost, you'll sink to your knees. Maybe, maybe you can go on your back then because then it's not going in your face. Yeah, try that Dan. Let's give you one more run here where if you lay on your back and then hold your breath and lay down and get dragged backwards. Go bum first. He can't hear you, I don't think.

He's stressing in the room. I would say, Dan, I'd still go, like, you know, just lay on your back like you're doing backstroke, but hang on to the toe rope and just don't let go. He's set up and we're going to go for round two. Come on, Casey, this is for you. He's looking confident. Are you ready? He doesn't look confident at all. Are we all ready? OK, we're ready.

Three, two, one. Starting again. Oh, he's going forward again. He's going forward. Oh, no, he's going. Oh, God. Oh, he's off. He's off. OK. That was a four second one. Four second, Dan. You the one that made me buddy. Oh Dan, he looks like he's so defeated in the water. Casey, he wants to do it for you, but he's just...

It looks like a bloody lovely day on the water actually out there this morning. Can I just, yes, can you relay to him if he can get through the first five or six seconds when he has the most drag on his body. I'm not doing right. Yeah. Yeah, Dan, okay, we're gonna have to go to a break. We're gonna. I'm not doing right. Yeah. Yeah, Dan.

OK, we're going to have to go to a break. We're going to give you another shot next. Can you hear us, Dan? Oh, no, their microphones, I think, are getting wet. OK, we'll take a break. And when we come back, I feel like if Dan can push through the first six or seven seconds of light drag, he'll pop up on top of the water.

And then it's just, then it's happy days from there. I was not that happy but I mean okay we'll try one more time. Okay one more time Casey's $500. He's gonna be in a madder right now. He's furious. Okay maybe you can practice during the break. Very exciting week in Iron Studio Dan is definitely not. Who dares? Who dares? Who dares? Who dares? Dan! Who dares Dan? Every Friday Dan will go full flavour and compete in a dare that Meg and I have set for him to win a Mother Earth Nutty Sensations prize back in $500 cash. That is what Casey is hoping to walk away with if Dan is successful. Yeah, but we've had two attempts. No good.

Dan has to hang on to a tow rope behind a power boat, get dragged behind that boat for 30 seconds. If he's still hanging on at the 30 second mark, he wins. Paul is the driver. We've had a couple of unsuccessful attempts. Paul, have we changed the strategy at all going forward before this last run? Yeah, we have, actually. We're just going to, Clint's kind of said, just punch it, Chewie. So that's what I'm going to do. We're just going to launch him and see

if we can actually make him bounce across the top of the water like a stone. OK, he's just given everything. He's asked for faster. We're going to give him faster. Thank you so much for that. Let's see. Dan, are you there?

Can you hear us, Dan? Dan, can you hear us Dan? Dan can you hear them? No I can't hear them. Is he going forwards or backwards? He's ready. He's going forward. Here we go. He's live on the engine Z right now. Come on my belly.

Ok. We're going to get this money. Let's go. 3, 2, 1. 30 seconds now. Let's go Dan Three, two, one! 30 seconds now! Let's go, Dan, come on! Pulling up, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god! He's up, he's up! Oh no!

No, five seconds and he's done. And that was, I think that was his best one yet, to be honest. He really hugged him there, but he just didn't quite pop up at that point. Is it worth one more run, or is it never gonna happen? I think it's worth one more run,

and we go on the bum. I can't help but think if Clint had done this it would be better. Oh Dan don't say that. He's got the beer. Oh Dan. Dan you can. Okay.

I don't have time for one more. I reckon go on your bum Dan. I reckon back. One more on your back and that's it. Do you think you're gonna do on your bum? On your bum, is that all good? No I'll try it once on my belly again. Oh he's gonna do it on his belly again.

I think he is a bit worried. If you've seen on the live stream he's wearing a wetsuit and his bum is almost non-existent. It's tight. The Edge NZ watch now. Let's get this done quickly. Put Casey out of her misery. Or get her that $500 and go full flavour. Come on Dan. Alright he's getting set up again. Can you just check is Dan going full flavor or is he just doing half flavor? Yeah ask him.

Dan are you going full flavor? I'm going for there's not anymore flavor you can put on me. Okay because Mother Earth really wanted you to go full flavor. Alright I feel like he's not going full flavor maybe these the really good. He's been going half like hey feels like it last time full flavor here. We go That was the worst idea now that was actually the worst one yet, so so yeah I'm so sorry Casey. I think this is this is going to be happening for you today. He's just given up at this point. Casey, Casey, at some point you just got to know when enough is enough and it feels like Dan's at his limit.

I've given him four teams. I'm so sorry. Anyway. It's just, to me this is impossible. Absolutely impossible. I mean, well people do barefoot water ski so no, that definitely has been done. It's just, to me this is impossible. Absolutely impossible. I mean, well people do barefoot water ski, so no, it definitely has been done. It's not impossible. Yeah, some people actually do press ups on the water whilst being dragged behind the boat without skis, but anyway, they practice.

Casey, unfortunately there's really bad news for you. We're really hoping to send you into your weekend worth 500 bucks, but we will send you a Mother Earth Nutty Sensations prize back as a consolation prize. Thank you. You're very welcome. Thank you Casey, should love that anyway, honestly. worth 500 bucks, but we will send you a Mother Earth Nutty Sensations prize back as a consolation prize. Thank you. You're very welcome. Thank you guys. You should love that anyway, honestly.

If there's any to send, leave to send out because I have been... I am at this point 70% nut. Oh, I don't know if the client would like that. Okay, how do I move us on? So I guess, guess yes you enjoy the water you're out there with Dan you got the boat I mean have a bit of a ski do what you need to do and we're not expecting Dan to be back anytime soon but we will jackpot the cash prize to a thousand dollars this time next week

thanks guys beautiful day we will not be having a ski, however. No final comments from Dan. Look, I apologise. I've not been able to hear anything. I've not been able to hold onto the bar. I will say, this is probably, let's chalk this up as a real fail. But I had as much flavour as I could. It was full flavour for me,

probably half flavour for Clint. Dan, out of curiosity, what is the full flavour you have in your mouth right now? what is the full flavour you have in your mouth right now? What's the full flavour you have in your mouth right now? Mainly salt and duck poo. Yeah, that's the full flavour. They don't have those ones at Mother Earth. No, no, no, they go with like a berry shortcake,

and caramelised onion and vinegar at. Yeah. Hey, you're not allowed to speak for the rest of this break, Meg. You're right, thank you Clint. I'm going to back out now. 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 OnlyFans podcast it is.
