This is a podcast from Rover. If this podcast was a person, it would be banned from family gatherings. Oh, piss off, Uncle John. This is the Clint Megan Dan podcast. It's breakfast. Clint Megan Dan, she's everyone's favorite girl at the moment. Everyone's loving her. She's good, isn't she? She's very good.

Gorgeous as well. Yeah. I've seen quite a few TikToks about, like, for some reason, she's a real kryptonite to mean when it comes to, like, looks like, I mean, the expanning. You could show your granddad her, you can show your brother her, your boyfriend. And apparently everyone's like, wow, Ella Langley. I feel like crazy.

That's a very nice compliment after I just said that. But it is, yeah, it's so funny because I saw a lot of girls kind of online saying about never let your partner see Ella Langley. Because I didn't know until I'd watch the music video. And I was like, oh, yeah, like great song. I watched the music video. And I love the song. I'm going to have a Google now.

To be honest, I am not. Oh, gosh. Yes. Yes. She's got that like, kind of. She's got that like kind of Dakota Johnson slash Daisy Daisy Eger Jones

sort of like dark brunette fringe Yeah Yeah It's dance type I won't be showing my granddad her That's for sure Today we're going to be doing Rain-themed throwbacks

Because obviously a lot of rain hit in the country Mainly in the South Island yesterday Moving its way up north today I've heard I called her in the firing line today So if you're in that area take care What do we got, Cal? That's a close one, wasn't it? Well, there's quite a few here, actually.

There's quite a few. Rang on me, Lady Gaga, Arna Grande. Oh, yes, I vote for that one. It's one of my favorite songs of all time. This is a year. I haven't heard this in ages. Rain on me. Yeah, that's a tune, man.

What about, it will rain, Brita, Mars? A bit slower, right? Yeah. That's a no for me. That's a no. That's a no. Let's enough for me as well. Okay, Adele set fire to the rain.

Back in the spotlight recently, she was at the Formula One in Silverstone over the weekend. Massive Formula One fan. Adele apparently. Like huge, loves it, watches every race. Interesting, she wasn't at Taylor's. She, those two are friends. Yeah. They were in the cool girl group for a while with Decode Johnson, Adele, Jennifer Lawrence, Taylor Swift, Emma Stone. Oh, I remember, what an era. As it turns out. Yeah, that was a great era. Some of those girls have been exited from the group, how they?

No, all of those are in, apart from Adele. Oh. But maybe Adel was busy at Formula One. Maybe she was like, I would rather go to the Formula One. Sorry, Taylor. Yeah, that sounds like it. Clint, Megan Dan. Good to have you, Cal, I'm doing a great job. Sorry.

Not again. It's his crutch. It's definitely his crutch. I noticed that yesterday I said it. And I said he was doing a great job. At the exact same time yesterday. And then you went. And now it's a gag.

It was almost like it was a little bit of a confidence booster for him because he was bloody good after. I don't think he cares about your opinion. I don't need it. That much. Yeah. Appreciate it, though. Yeah.

Good on you. I appreciate it though. I went to the grocery store you say, oh, it's just divine having your entire day after work here. Did you get sleeping in the afternoon? Did you do that? I went home and had a nap. Right.

How long and what? Tell me about it. Tell me about your nap. I don't know if it's interesting radio. You know, to me, the idea of like a good nap is just... I think it's really nice going home having a nap with all the curtains open, couple windows open, you get into bed, you're just in your undies, you know, and you just fall asleep.

I'm nearly there, go on. Nearly there was And then I woke up Unfortunately But oh This infuriates me so much People that have nice cars That think that they can just park

However they want Went to the supermarket yesterday Posted this on my story as well With the number plate being like someone docks him Which means like Find his address And it was a Porsche No it wasn't it was a jag

Oh I don't know much about cars F-cars It was a jag F type I'm not even kidding Half of his car was out of the park also on like a massive angle.

I find it weird that they don't think that they're asking for trouble in that aspect because people are just jealous anyway and likely to scratch your key cars because they're like, what a wanker. And then if you're going to also bring attention to yourself being a wanker, do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah.

Like why park like that? I also thought that I've told you this before, Israel Adisanga with his, what does he have? McClaren. He's got a McLaren. He part there in like the Do Not Park Zone for the Kendi that I went to and I had no place to park to pick out my child

because there was McLaren in the park. I guess at that point you could pay for the fines. And he had no children and the Skendi. He just didn't want to park at the high school that he was doing a speech chat because I guess that was less safe. But like, then took the park of the people trying to pick up their kids. But he is better than most people.

Right. You know, like I think he goes, oh, you know what? That pissed me out. Like he would have seen your vits and gone, I'm better than her. And like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Speaking of Supermarkets, Cal, I went to the supermarket yesterday.

I was listening to the Ash London show a couple of days ago and Ash was talking about. Ash was talking about how she does this thing where she goes to the supermarket and it makes it bearable because she puts headphones in, she listens to great music. Yeah.

And then she gets a Lewis Road creamery chocolate milk from the shelf and drinks it as she walks around the... I saw her doing that too, yeah. Yeah, and so I was like, I'm going to try it. You're doing the Ash London grocery shop. And I did the Ash London shop. And I tell you what, it changed the game. She's onto something.

She's onto something. Did you have your child with you, though? No. Okay, yeah, makes a big difference. It was just me. A trolley, about an hour's worth of free time and a chocolate milk and some great music. I honestly, you do it.

It changes the game of shopping. But did you find that your shopping was way more expensive at the end? Because you're like, I'll have this. I'll have that. I'll grab these. To be honest, I didn't look at the price. Oh my God, Rich. Must be nice.

Nice. I see you mean. No, it was like just a midweek shop. So I didn't. It probably was, Hannah will look at the statement and go, what the hell did you spend? Why are you buying like truffle infusion? Mushrooms and fancy things.

You know what? I was halfway round as well, so I'd had the chocolate milk from the start. I went straight to the milk section, got that for the start. I went half a round and I'd finished it, and I thought of getting a second. That's how much of a big bottle or just like the little ones. No, like the small ones. You can get those down on like three gulps, though.

Oh, yeah. Delicious, delicious. So yeah, I recommend that to anyone that wants to make shopping more bearable. Yeah, so the Ash London grocery shop. Try it next time you're around about. It's scheduled this morning. our Ricky Hedravate is celebrating the 25th anniversary of The Office.

So exciting, he's announced he's going to be sitting down and chatting about it. I've made a special show to commemorate 25-year anniversary of the office. Just me chatting about my memories of the show, my favourite bits, and a whole lot more.

Oh, wow, that's exciting. He wrote it with a guy called Steve Merchant who, if you haven't heard of, They were like a co-writing team. They wrote another show called extras and a couple of others as well. But they've had a falling out, I reckon, because they don't do anything together anymore. Where Steve?

And if you think that he's going to be talking about the office, you'd think that Steve would be involved. So something's happened between them, I reckon. That's a real shame if that's the situation. Because, yeah, what a duo they were together. But I'll still be watching. And he also just got... Oh, you should.

It's fantastic. It's so good. And he also just got awarded one of the highest, I think. on as you can do for all of his charity work to animals. Rickettsiavace is a vegan, has been his whole life, and donates millions or millions or millions of dollars every year on two animal charities. I would never have guessed that from him.

Yeah, he's a vegan. He's very big animal lover, yeah. Loves them so much. He doesn't eat any byproduct of them at all. He doesn't have kids either because he just loves animals so much. He has like a cat. Oh my God. Yeah, and that's why any show you ever watch of Rickey Javis,

you'll know the dog doesn't die. It's like a thing that he has. The dog will never die. Wait, I've learnt something completely new about him. I love that. Quickly on him as well, I saw this other day

and I've been losing my mind over it. Ricky Javis. His name's Ricky. Like if you look at him, like all of his mates just call him Ricky. Do you look at him and say like, oh, he looks like a Ricky? No, yeah, I see what you're saying.

Mm. Anyway. What, so are you saying he doesn't look like a Ricky? No, he doesn't look like a Ricky. Javis. Yeah, he looks like him Ricky Javis. Yeah, he looks like him Ricky Javis. Every time we don't just go, oh, Ricky.

Yeah, that's weird. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah. That's because we don't know him, though. I call Brad Pitt, Brad Pitt, because I don't know him as Brad. That's so true. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. First Call of the Day.

First Call of the Day! Good morning. Morning, Claudia. Well done for getting through First Call of the Day. You're a full-time student, single, but not on the apps. No, definitely not. Yeah, fair enough. I have been busy enough.

I've done a lot that people are like, I'm really, really done with the apps now. Like, I don't know what it's, what kind of plethora of people are on the apps. As someone who's been on the apps here and there. I feel like it's just because New Zealand's so small, it's just the same people every time. Have you clocked the apps? Have you going around for the second time? I finish. I finish them over. I keep replaying them.

What do you think, Claudia? What's the reason? Is it just because you're like, I don't have enough time to sit there and swipe through people? No, I just have three children and studying full-time is just a take a lot. No, thank you. Yeah, yeah, your spare time is not going to be going on dating naps. Your spare time is going to be like, I'm going to sit on the couch and take five minutes for myself. What an incredible human you are that you're able to have three kids, which in itself is a full-time gig.

And then you're studying as well. What are you studying? I'm doing a Bachelor of Social Practice. Wow, what does that mean you want to do afterwards? Where does that get you? Social work. Social work. Oh, wow, what incredible person you must be.

to be wanting to work in social work as well as already raising three kids on your own that you must have a lot to give. Yeah, I hope so. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Good on. And how do you, so do you work as well? How do you like earn money or do you, have you got like the student loan? Yeah, I have one of those.

And next year we go on placement. And hopefully after I complete my placement, I'll get off at a job. Fingers crossed. Wow. sound like you'll get a job pretty easily. You've got our recommendation. Save this off. Yes.

Yeah, if you need a reference, Muggo's a great one. Meggo to CV for me to get this job. Gosh, she's good. All right, Claudia, we're going to send you the movies as well. You might have to pick one of your favorite kids because it's a double pass to go and see Moana. I'll pick my daughter who was actually meant to be talking to you guys on my behalf

because we're just striving to Tadanaki. Right, yeah. Okay, well, there you go. There you go. Your daughter gets to go along and see Moana. It comes into the cinemas tomorrow, okay? Thank you so much, guys. Have a great day.

You too, Claudia. Drive carefully. Yeah. Quarter to seven this morning, Clint Mc and Dan, Clint's away. Cal jumping in. It's time to get naughty at 640. I have recently seen, and I don't know, studies have come out,

studies come out every single day, but I did read that either you're an angry woman or you have an autoimmune disease. Yes, there's only two options. But that's what they were saying. said autoimmune diseases can come from repressing emotions, repressing anger, being a people pleaser, women are more likely to get autoimmune diseases because they won't say how they actually feel and they'll hold in their actual true feelings so they don't

come across as aggressive. And it manifests. So I don't have an autoimmune disease, so does that make me an angry woman? Yes, you're an angry. Right. Yes. So I read about that and I've recently been like, I've got to, I mean, I don't think it's going to cure me, but it is something that connected with me.

And I thought, I am like that. I'm such a people pleaser. This job, especially has made it so much worse than I. I'm so aware of being in the public eye that I'm nervous. Any sort of interaction with me is going to be a person's first and only bad interaction. And so I'm very much so non-confrontational, don't like being seen as a bad or aggressive or angry person. So what would you say to people if they see in public just devoured you? Just don't go near you.

No, I'd like to talk to people. But I'm saying that if somebody does something that pisses me off, I will try to my best to be my best version of myself. But recently I haven't been. Recently I've been trying to be like, well, you know, stuff it. I'm like creating stress for myself and I want to have the audacity of somebody else that doesn't

care as much. I'm trying it out anyway and I was at the supermarket and I was waiting for the fishmonger. Of course you were. And I was like, where would Meg be at the supermarket? I'd go right near the fishmonger. Yeah, yeah. Or she'd be getting some like... There was nobody there. There was nobody

there. I was going to get to nice piece of Tadikiki. Lovely. Yeah. And I was waiting there with my daughter Miller, who was so loud. She is the loudest baby

you'll ever meet in your life. Like crying, screaming loud? No, but yelling at me. She yells at me constantly. I'm honestly battered by that baby. She's yelling at me, and I'm like, it's rocking her. It's about 5 p.m. at night.

I need to get it home to feed her. I'm getting a piece of fish for dinner. She's like, Mom, why are we at the fishmonger for the third time today? So I've run the bow, because nobody's there a few times. Not in an angry way, but just like getting people's attention. I am waiting here. There's nobody here. That's fine.

So I'm waiting there. I'm waiting there. I'm rocking Millie. It's fine. Smile on my face. Again, people are busy. And at the same time that I can see the fishmonger come out from around the back and finish whatever they were doing, a man comes up. Oh. Yeah. You can see where this is going. Comes up behind me. And I'm very, very clearly standing there waiting.

There is no one else around it. It's just me with a baby looking and waiting. And he walks up and the person comes out and they're putting on their gloves to the belly. looking down and they look up and he goes, I'm just going to get a piece of that salmon. That pig. He swoops into the monga. I think so. I'm standing there with a baby.

I've clearly been here for honestly minutes. I know it's not that long, but minutes at this point. And he doesn't even go, oh, were you first, you know, the courtesy? He comes in and walks up. He hasn't been standing behind me, and he goes and asks for a piece of fish. And I, this is really big for me.

I did, and I say to him, actually, mate, I was here first. Oh, God. Well done, Meg. He ignored me completely, as did the fishmonger and he's still got his piece of fish first. No man gets between Meg and a piece of fish. Okay, we may have lost a listener, but she's getting her fish first. I didn't. I still didn't.

Yeah, again, he completely ignored me. Good on you. Well, did you say it quietly? No, no, I said it. I said it fair. I turned and faced him, and he just kept looking straight ahead. So I think he knew what he'd done, but he didn't even want to look at me. Oh, that's on the monger.

Yeah, I thought so. I think that's on the fish monger. He should have gone, you know what, as a professional monger, I will go to the person that was here first, because I am a bloody good monger, but he wasn't. No, no. So, you know what, I thought, I think he went to monger school. That's 101, serve the customer that's been waiting the longest.

Did it come out quite like just straight away, or did you kind of like, oh, I'll be going to say it, I'm going to say it? I said it, I think, quite confidently. So I'm proud of myself. It didn't work, but it's a step in the right direction. So that's a lesson for anybody that's listening right now. If you do see Meg at the supermarket, especially at the fishmonger, stare clear.

She's angry. I'm getting my fish. Clint, Meg and Dan. It's time for what's it called? More or less. I like this game. I think this is fun. Maybe you should remember the name then.

More or less, we're doing the largest animals by maximum weight. Oh, okay. Nice. Yeah, very niche. Out of left field, is it? Is there a reason why he did this one? No, no. Again, I just thought Cal would enjoy it.

Let's go. Yeah. But some of these are very specific, so I don't know how well you know certain animal types. It sounds like it'll be easy. Elephant or... No, but it's maximum weight of how big they can get, right? And also, obviously I haven't done elephant or hedge, Dan.

But some of the breeds are just different breeds of the same animal. So Southern right whale or the fin whale. Which one is big? Finn whale's smaller. Is it? I'm not, I will say, I'm not very good with whales. They're all mammals. I honestly think most people are not very good with whales.

Southern white whale or the what? Southern right whale or the fin whale. I would say the right whale. Is heavier? Incorrect, boys. It is the fin whale. I made up the whole fin was small. Spirm whale or whale shark?

Spirm whale's bigger. Spurn whale's huge. Yeah. I think sperm whale, correct me if I'm wrong, is the biggest living animal in the world. No, that's the blue whale. The fin wire, I think. Well, yeah, blue wire would be bigger, but 120 tons. Spirnwhilts, 57 tons, still big.

African bush elephant or the Indian rhinoceros. Which one's bigger, boys? Is the African bush elephant or the Indian rhinoceros? I still think the elephant would be bigger. But it's about weight, maybe not size, but I feel like a rhinoceros would be more dense. Okay. Well, you've thrown a bloody cat in amongst the pigeons there. I'm going rhino.

You're saying the rhino is heavier than the elephant. I disagree, but I'm going to have to go with a cow. I'm going to go elephant then. Yeah, elephant. Oh, you went to rhino, though. Okay, the southern elephant seal. Actually, there's a seal in the news recently, isn't there? Oh, Neil.

Neil the seal. Yeah, which we're actually going to be calling Australia because there's a seal that's gone absolutely rogue in a small town in Australia, and it's caused a lot of damage on land. Yeah, well, the southern elephant seal or a hippopotamus. So, hippo. Elephant seal or a hippo?

An elephant seals, they can get extremely big. Really? Like to the point, yeah, an elephant seal. I'm going to go hippo. I just feel like they're huge. Okay, I'm going to disagree and say the elephant seal. It's the hippopotamus, boys. I said hippopotamus.

Yeah, I'm very good. Okay, your final one. I would like you to both agree on this one at least, please. The North Pacific right whale or the blue whale. The blue whale. It's the biggest. Yes, blue whale. Like we talked about, you'd already discussed it.

It's so intelligent. 190 tons. Incredible. Big boys, big girls. That's crazy, eh? Well, there you go. You know more about animals than I do, Cal. clearly shocking

especially their weights were you one of the people that I used to read National Geographic as a child did you? Not so much meeg I didn't too much reading as I can though it was mainly picture books Do you think sometimes you just Do you wonder if you can read

Or if you've just memorized words? I've got the reading age of like a four year old That's a really good question Yeah Do you think you can read or you just memorize words? Have you just memorized the lot of words over your life? Dan? It's hard to know

You know what? I spend a lot of time on Encata Do you remember in Carter back in the day? It was before the internet. Yeah. And you get like a disc. It was like Microsoft in the Carter. Yeah.

Yeah, that was where I did most of my learning. And now I just use chat GPT. Bypass my brain. As soon as the moment we can get a chip in our brain, just bypass and just go straight to chat GPT. I'm doing it. Clint McGinn Dan. Oh, oh my gosh.

Clint Megan Dan. Clint's away. You got Cal jumping in. Take the edge off my life. This is the last week to do it. So make sure you're registering. It takes Edge to 3343. Let us know what we can pay for.

That'll take the edge off your life. And we could be calling you just. you just like right now. All right, let's double-checking the number. In fact, it is, you know what? It's a short week this week as well, so only two more days after today. I'll take the e-drop-my-life. Oh, come on, you need to answer.

That you drop my life? Well done. Yes, well done. Congratulations. You've won yourself. $240.40 so you can go into psychotopor. Cycle. Cycle, would I say?

Psycho-tope. Very different. Sorry, I entered that in one. He goes there every week No, cycle, toopo. Is this your first sort of ride? 160 kilometres? Yeah, so my partner did it a couple years ago.

He did the gravel race last year, so I thought this was my chance to give it a go. I did it last. I did the gravel one last year, Shannon. And it nearly killed me. Yeah, I remember that. I was limping for about a month after it. It did nearly kill him, actually.

But he did it. Oh, I'm going to be the same. I'm going to be the same. This is probably the most I've ever ridden. Wow. So it's a good little, yeah. I'm nervous. What's that?

I mean, I was just going to say it's such a beautiful part of the country to be cycling around as well with the hookah falls. And then obviously the lake, which I imagine you'll be cycling round. Beautiful scenery to be riding around. Is it supposed to be like a race or are you just kind of doing it for doing it? Oh, if you're really good, you'd be racing. Are you going to be racing, Shannon? Yeah, if you're good, you're racing. Yeah.

And what are you? Are you good, Chan? You're just going to be doing it. I like to think so, but no, it's probably going to be a long five and a half, six hours. Well, now you're really logged in because you can't sit in and go, oh, I can't afford it. I don't have the money to do it. I'll do it next year and say, nope, $240. We've covered it.

It's got to be done now. Best of luck. This is amazing. Thank you so much. You're welcome, Shannon. That's it. We've got another one to do coming up at 8 a.m. That's how you win it.

Yeah, I think the one I did was the gravel, and I was on a bike with very little suspension. Yeah, I remember that. And so my... A little padding on the seat. Yeah, my little chuff took him quite a beating that day. Oh, yark. Clint, Megan Dan. Lesh school.

What was your school famous for? Right. There are a few texts that we can't read out since Dan did ask for all the bad things. Good one, Dan. Well, you don't want to just hear good stuff. Like, oh, we made the final of the first 11. You know, like, we want to hear stuff that's like, oh, that's controversial. Yeah, and there is definitely some controversial things coming through, that's for sure.

Yeah. My school banned Valentine's Day flowers because it wasn't inclusive to kids who didn't get any. Oh, PC gone mad. That must have been a lot of kids getting flowers if it was very obvious that if you didn't get any, though.

I remember the first time I tried to get someone flowers for Valentine's Day. I got flowers and a box of chocolate. And then I saw her walking to school and she had a giant teddy bear and a way bigger thing of flowers. So I threw the flowers in the bin and getting chocolates to mum.

Oh. But that's your fault that you didn't send her stuff. She just sent you stuff. Was she your girlfriend or did you want her to be your girlfriend? No, I just liked it. So she was just, oh, she really liked it. She really liked her.

Wow, she was a cool girl. Imagine that. I wonder what it would have been like to live that life in high school where you had multiple people. Getting you like Valentine's gifts. Wow, can you imagine? I never got one. No, neither. I got a necklace one time that said love his friendship set on fire.

God, that's quite deep. That is really deep. That was a friend. Ray, good morning Hey, how's it going? Good Ray, why was your school famous? So one of our senior levers for school prank,

he ended up turning our cricket pitch into a penis by lighting it on fire. Brilliant. That's what we wanted. Sorry, I'm guessing the pitch was the shaft and then he did a couple of balls at the end. Yeah, yeah, no, that's it. That's it's a text, but we'll see it before.

we'll see it again. Because they would have taken a while to fix. Yeah, well, according to the text, it was on Google Maps for five years. Yep, yep. You can see it on Google Maps. It was clear as day because it was lump and black, but... Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.

Yeah, the principal would have been so, like, I just don't even know what to do. You know, like, what do you do? I can just imagine a principal staring at it. There's got to be an element of those teachers and the principals and stuff being like, oh, it's pretty good. There would have been a couple of the cool ones. Yeah, right.

Yeah, they're cool teachers. I mean, keep these coming through. For a senior prank, some of the kids snuck three cows into the hallway. This must have been one of those rural schools. Clearly. And they numbered them one, two, and four. The principal bit sent spent three days looking for cow number three. That's genius.

That's the smart idea to label them. That's clever. That's so good. Where the hell is that other cow? Wow. Yeah. And then there's a couple of other texts that have come through, We literally can't read.

No, absolutely not. Yeah, so thanks for all your texts and stuff this morning. Clint, Megan Dan. There's been some of shocking weather around the country, especially down south over the last 24, 48 hours. Yeah. And Dunedin was hit fairly hard yesterday, and the mayor of Dunedin,

Sophie Barca joins us on 0800 the edge. Morning, Sov. Good morning, how are you? Yeah, good. Thank you so much for coming on. How are you? Is the bigger question of how you have you been going for the past, yeah, a couple of days, week?

Oh, well, I did get some sleep last night because the night before I'd only had an hour and a half. I was a little bit of a zombie. Yeah, yeah. You just... It's the weather. You don't know what's going to happen. Yeah, as the mayor of a city like Dunedin, like when this sort of event is happening, you must sort of feel guilty sleeping, right?

Even though you do need sleep, you want to be out there helping. Oh, especially when it's the weather, because you just don't know what's going to happen. And I was down in the bunker. which my daughter asked me, can it's a cyber-nuclear hit. I'm like, um, it's not quite that kind of bunker, the civil defence banker, just keeping an eye on everything. And there was about dirty people and they're a huge team. Just that's, you know, that's control central.

So I needed to be there and also needed to respond to all the media queries. That's something to me, so me you can be useful at, rather than, you know, a shuffling sand or something like that. Because we have to get the message out for the community and also respond to the community so that they know how to. keep themselves safe. I'm looking at photos of the silver stream, which is a river near Mosgiel, from yesterday and when it's what it looks like normally.

It's actually quite shocking to see how much the river rose. Yes, yeah. Well, it is designed to take all of that water, but there's just so much water that was funneled in there, and it is shocking to people. It's hopefully going out to sea now, but you can certainly see the sea's a bit brown at the moment. The end looks are quite brown and we're telling people just not, it would seem obvious

not to go swimming. I know. But isn't it funny? I think some people just see it as like something exciting and different in there like, oh, I can go and get my kayak out and go down the street. Well, yes, we were quite pleased for students around holiday.

Yes. Keeping on the least, you know, which is a favorite kayaking spot of some students. Yeah. And so what is your advice to people if they're in Dunedin or the South and region and they have been affected by the flood they've had to evacuate,

what's the best thing to do? There were only a few people that evacuated and they should be back home. The key thing, I think we'll watch out for orange cones because there's a lot of clean-up going on. So drive carefully. There's unexpected, especially out on Moskil, some unexpected areas, I guess,

obviously avoid picking out shellfish and then also just return the sandbag, which leaves them by the side of the road. because there was a huge amount of sandbags that went out from around 11 o'clock in the morning, so they were going out for 12, 14 hours. And now we need to pick them up. You don't really want sandbags around your house. And we're glum.

We put them out. Yeah, there we go. Sensible advice. Yeah, great. Well, hopefully that's ease for you guys because the weather looks like it's moving north. So if you're in the firing line for the rain today, just take care and try and stay home if you have that option. Thank you so much. Good advice.

Sophie. Oh, thank you. Thank you for helping spread the message and keeping everyone safe. Thanks, thank you. And hopefully it clears up from now on and that's like the big weather event for the year because, you know, you normally have a couple of them. Yeah, definitely going up the island now for looking out for the Lower North Island. So do the same for yourself. If you know you're prone to flooding, take all the precautions that you need to.

Flint, Megan Dan. StinkyB. Flat nightmares. So our flat mate has decided. And fair enough, you know, this is so fine, you can go and do what you want. He's decided that he wants to pick up his life and move to the UK. A piece of work. A lot of people do it.

How old is he? About 28? 27. Oh, quite young to be doing it. And it's all come quite quickly. I think we found out maybe three weeks ago. He leaves in six days. Yeah, but the thing is when you're flatting, three weeks is a long time.

Does he have it a contract? Not a long time for a bunch of ADHD boys who had no concept of time. But the problem we have right now that we're really worried about, a couple things. One, there's no one to move into the flat yet. You know, we're a week away. We haven't found anyone to move into the flat. Which means you're going to be covering an extra week of rent. Yeah.

Or maybe a few weeks of rent. And then also, I'm a bit concerned. He's got like a car, his whole room's filled with stuff and like nothing selling on marketplace. It's like, you fly out in six days. And I'm like, are you going to just leave everything here? Right. So it's just kind of, and he's, he's fine. Like, he's coerz, but it's just got to this point now where it's like six days to go.

What the hell is happening with all this stuff? It's interesting. I'm in both ways about who should be finding the flatmate. One time when I moved to Queenstown, the girl that was moving out didn't tell her flatmate she was moving out. And the day she moved out, I moved in, and my flatmates, the other flatmates found out that day. Because there was this new chick in there. Because I was, like, who are you? And I live here.

Oh, God, nine. And they're like, what do you mean? And so they had so many phone calls with the school that just kind of upped and ditched. And they had no idea who I was. And they wanted my room. They were really pissed off because I had the onsuit. So they wanted my room. But we ended up, thank goodness, making friends with that.

And then another time I had the flat and we were like, you just leave. We will organise who we live with. Because Damme and you have spoken about this. It's like having to rely on somebody else. Because do you want this guy to find you a flat mate? Because what if he just picks anyone to cover the rent? Yeah. Or is he going to be paying the rent?

What are you? Here's my view. If you've got a flat and you're staying in a flat and you decide to leave, it's your job to put the advertisement up on the trade me or whatever, advertise the room. Then that's your job done. But you should be paying until you've got somebody covering your room. I think that's the issue. No, I disagree.

Why? Because you're still on a contract. You're on a lease, right? You are contracted to pay until the lease ends unless you find someone. But if you haven't found someone, you just bug her off. No. Are we just left there to pay? Two, I disagree.

So as long as you give enough notice, say I, I, give you a month's notice. If you still haven't found someone by then, that's not my problem. That's interesting. I should not have to worry about the flat, that you need to find someone for your flat. You're living with them. You're the one that's left and left a big hole

in needing to... Not my problem. It's not my lease. If I put your lease on the lease, you are legally, you're contractually binded to pay for the rent. It's a hard on man. Do we want to talk about flat nightmares or do we want to talk about who has

to find the new flatman we're moving out. Is there a rule there? I always thought it was the person that was moving out. Look, if someone knows exactly the right rules, please call and let me know.

And other than that, if you have any flat nightmares, give us call, 0,800 the edge. Did somebody do that where they went and up and left? Kind of like my situation and suddenly you had a new flatmate moved in, they left all their stuff. Because there's all sort of thing of like, we all are fine

in the flat. It's not like there's been like a massive argument and he's like up and gone. That's not what you said off here. You said you hated him. Shut up, damn. Clint Megan Dan Lesh, go We've got some nightmare

Flatmate text coming through Not available to chat on the phone But I had a flight mate who Irish good-bide And we didn't know Until the second week of missed rent There was this horrid smell Coming from his room

I thought Maybe he's dead So I went to investigate There was a suitcase under his bed With spilt protein shake Left in there At least he left everything in his room Never heard from him ever again

You know, the worst flatmate I've ever had He was in the room next to me And he had an onsuit But he never used it for some reason There was a shower in there So he used my shower Which was a shared shower And I remember it was right next to my room

And I'd hear him every morning Snot Rockets Yeah Clint does that Yeah like in the shower Like blow your nose If it's a shared shower I do it in there

Since Clint's not here I can say When we did What was that thing We had to live in the house Together Safe house Safe house

We did that We had to get up in the morning And obviously share a bathroom and I'd wait for him and he would literally, it was his place to fart and snout wrong. I swear to go. And he would do like seven of them in a row and then just snortop it. It was the most

horrific. I've never seen that man the same. But he's never flattered with anyone. No, so he doesn't know that. He doesn't know that's kind of messed up. All right, let's quickly go to Susie. Hey Susie. Hello, good morning, Kim. How are you? How are you?

It was a nightmare. Okay, so it was my friend and I was the one to pick him up to get all of his gear out of their flats. he was sitting with a woman and he turned off the freezer so that everything was yeah he did something with the shower bottle which I can't really explain to you on yeah and something with the truth and then he was really really thinking it was funny when he got into the car and I was like okay I'm not ever going to live with you So did he have a situation where he had been stung by the other flatmates?

You don't need to go into details, but yes or no? No, no, not at all. They were just actually relative people that were living their own lives. So why was you tampering with the shampoo? I have no idea. He just thought it was really funny to tell me in the car, and I have no idea why. What a scumbag? That's disgusting.

Yeah, I don't really get it, right? Absolutely gross. Well, thanks for you, of course, Susie. That's a worry. So that's the thing with flooding with people. You don't know them. And like you do like a, what, a five to 20 minute face-to-face interview and then you have to decide if you want to live with them.

It's so weird. It is crazy, eh, when you think about it that way. But usually, I think nine times out of ten it works out. You become friends and you live together. But there is always that chance where you get a crazy. Yeah. Yeah, and that's clearly evident on the text machine. Clint, Megan Dan.

Oh, oh my gosh. ABC. Easy a point. All right, the A list to list. got a bit of a Taylor Swift theme to her wedding. A lot of A-listers went to the wedding we've done. Tom Hanks were done Hugh Grant, we've done Jennifer Lawrence.

They were all there. There's Tom Hanks there, was he? Yeah, Tom Hanks was there and Sander, officiated the wedding. So I've grabbed a few that haven't been on our list. If I was a celebrity in Hollywood, I'd almost be a little bit like put out of place if I wasn't invited. Because there was so many there.

I'd be like, huh. I know the Bippers weren't. Bebers weren't invited. Did you see that? They were on a, like, boat, partying. during the ceremony so they obviously haven't been invited for whatever reason.

Yeah, yeah. Well, I don't think, I think there was a bit of maybe discourse between them when Justin Bebel was very Scooterbrown focused. Yeah. All right, so I've got some, I thought these names were quite interesting

because each one of them has something that would, I think, make them a-lister, but I don't know if they all are. Okay. We'll start off with Zoe Kravitz. Zoe Kravitz has got a very famous last name. She is Lenny Kravitz's daughter,

and she is engaged to Harry Stiles. She is also an actress in her own right. Next up, Paul McCartney, who is one of the Beatles, but just his name by himself, is he an A-Lister? And this one, interesting, who was also invited, Tommy Hilfiger. Oh, that's an interesting one. I know, Dad. I thought you'd like that, because obviously I wouldn't be able to point him out in a crowd at all,

but that is a very famous name. Yes. Oh, this is an interesting one because it's very tricky, because you're right. I could have Tommy, if I tripped over Tommy Hilfiger, the man in the street, I'd go, sorry. But if somebody goes, this is Tommy Hilfiger, you instantly know he is the brand. Here's the thing. I think the only surefire A is Paul. Is Paul McCartney.

He is go to the Beatles. When you say the name Paul McCartney, you go, he's a beetle. I think he is an A-list. We'll have to wait and see, also, if we have some younger Gen Zers, if they know who Paul McCartney is. I don't know what he looks like. Really? If you saw a photo of Paul McCartney, you wouldn't know that time. If you show me a photo of the Beatles, I wouldn't know who's who.

Wow. But I know Paul McCartney. But you know what the name? I think if you, he walked in here, you go, oh, that guy's, yeah, that's Paul McCartney. You'd know him. I would know him as being like, oh, he's very famous. He's one of the Beatles. So does your name make you an A-Lister?

Or does your looks make you an A-Lister? It's a very, you know, does your ability to be recognized by seeing somebody your face? Like if you saw George Clooney, Brad Pitt, they're A-Lister because of what they look like? Or is it your name like Tommy Hilfiger, Zoe Kravitz? Zoe Kravitz. I would say is a C-lister, and here's why, because she's famous by association. Yes, she's done movies. She's been in Batman.

She's been in a few other films. But the reason she's mainly famous, and I think the reason she's got to where she is, is because her dad's Lenny Kravitz, and now she's dating. Yeah, but saying that, you had a whole argument on exactly the other way of A-Lister by association with Haley Bieber, saying because her dad is famous and she married Justin Bieber. Can I also say from that Gem Z perspective, didn't know about the whole Lenny Kravitz thing? You don't know Lenny Kravitz is her dad? He's recently in the new James Bond game as well, play session game.

I didn't know that, but I do know who Zoe Kravitz is. Interesting. She's not an A. No, I agree. She's not an A. But I do find it interesting that you thought Haley Bieber was an A because of her association with her dad and her husband, but not Zoe. Yeah, I think Haley B was just more on the spotlight than Zoe Kravitz. So her name was Zoe Stiles?

Still not an A-lister by part. Interesting. Okay. I'm a B not a C. I'm willing to be swayed from C to B for Zoe. So I'd say she's a C, I'd say Paul McCartney's an A, and I would say Tommy Hilfiger is a B. Now somebody has said already, no idea who Paul is. I'm 27 years old, please text us.

A, B, or C, Zoe Kravitz, Paul McCartney, Tommy Hilfiger. I use a lot in my figuring out whether it's A, B or C is with the other A's, argued they should be an A. I feel like the other A's will be like Paul McCartney should be at this party. Beyonce, Brad, Brad, Pat, all the guys and the people in the A-less. If Paul McCartney walks in, they're going, yeah! Here he is. Yeah, the big doll!

Yeah, so if they think he's in A, I feel like that's more of a... That's a good way of thinking about it, me. Okay, then we're looking at Zoe who's sitting around a B or a C, and Tommy. Kind of sitting at a B. Somebody did say... Tommy Hilfiger. Tommy Hilfiger is, Tommy Hilfiger. It's a brand, so it's like if you hear the word Chanel or Dior or Christian Lubiton,

Tommy Fivooker, it's a brand. But the thing is, I wouldn't know what any of those people look like. No. If you said Chanel's walked in, I go, Chanel who? Like, it's, I wouldn't know. Yeah. If I, um, Louis Vuitt. Yeah, but Tommy Hilfiger is, is a, I mean, I'll look out how, you know, how much the

business is worth. But to me, that name is A list. I reckon if it was just the name alone, we're talking A. Because everybody knows Tommy Hilfiger jeans, Tommy Hilfiger the brand. Yeah. The fact that he is not known in terms of looks by as many people. I guess that's the thing, right? Is it's, who's the celebrity, you know, it's a celebrity, like, would you

Yes, he's a celebrity, only because of his brand though, but I don't think you could count him. I reckon he's C. What? I reckon he's C because he's not... But you hear that name and you say, yeah, it's so hard to figure out what this is an A already. I think this is a cut and dry situation. We've got Paul McCartney in there as an A. Meg, it's over to you looking at the text machine, but I think Zoe Kravitz.

All right. Most people are saying a B, maybe even a C. Cassandra, let's lock in. Do you agree Paul McCartney should be an A? Yes, Paul in A all day. Okay, and what about Tommy Hilfiger? He is famous, but like you said, I wouldn't, if I saw him, I wouldn't know what he looked like. So where does that put him?

As a B. Okay. And then finally, Zoe Kravitz. Um, yeah, she's a C because she's only famous by association. So I agree with Dad this morning. Wow. I mean, she has done movies and she's a great actress, but I think the reason she's so famous now is because of of Harry Styles.

Wow. All right, Cassandra. Let's see. Tommy is a brand A is a person B. Okay, so that's looking what we're... I've just looked him up. I've never seen his face before in my life. Yeah, I know.

Okay, Meg, it's over to you. You have the final say. You can pile up all of the texts and calls. I've gone through them in the background. What I am locking in is Paul McCartney is an A-lister. Tommy Hilfiger is a B-lister. And Zoe Kravitz... is a C list

Oh yes I'm sorry Zoe is sitting with Aleut Baldwin Whoopi Goldberg Bread and Fraser Sydney Sweetie Lisa Cudrow

Jeremy Clarkson Pharrelliams and Prowe Williams and Zoe Kravitz Hey I would be happy to be in that room Oh my God That's an interesting room

There'll be a lot of truck chat With Sydney But apart from that The most cooked list Ever Oh my God Imagine Wopi Goldberg and Sydney Sweeney in the same room

There'll be fisty cuffs I don't think it's gonna go down very well That's outrageous. I sort of don't agree. I don't agree at all. Nobody agrees with this list, Carl. It's cursed.

Seal the Neil. That's not it. No, Neil the Seal. You got it almost, right? Yeah, he's causing destruction in Denali over in Tasmania. He comes there every year. It's like a holiday destination. Apparently, he goes at Cal was telling me he sheds there.

So he obviously... Sheds? Yeah, they shed their fur. And so that's why he goes there. Like a snake. Like shed their skin. Apparently there's been reports of them going into people's backyards, ripping apart their clothes lines, taking stuff off their clotheslines.

Luckily, it sounds like people are just like accepting of this wee man, though, and they're not. I'm just super weird and nervous that somebody's going to stuff it up with Neil, and he's not going to be allowed to come back. But we want to know what happened with the animals and the destruction. We have Talia on the phones. Oh, 800 the edge, Talia. You lived on a farmlet.

What was the animals that would disrupt things? So we had three goats, nine turkeys, and nine chickens at the home. We went out to get farm food for the mall, came home, and our little goat, she could actually open the sliding door. I forgot to lock it. She opened it and they were all in the pantry, eating the bread and wheat. Oh, my gosh, you come home, you're like, okay, right, it's been a long day. I've done kids' bore.

I'm like exhausted, and then you open the door, you find three goats in your kitchen, any all your stuff. Yeah. What did you do? Yeah, now I had to go buy more grocery. Yeah. That's smart goats, though, that they knew where to go. They sniffed out that breed and wheat bicks.

Good on them. I reckon I'm on team goat here. Team goat. Yeah, me too. I'm like, you know, they figured it out. That's fair enough. The door was open. They didn't jump.

Yeah, I agree. I agree. More techs coming out. I think we're trying to get one of the calls on as well. Yeah. Oh, this person here, we're trying to get them on, but their boss got a brand new Ford Ranger Wild Track. We're talking $80,000 worth.

let's talk to them is it Pudahee? Yeah yeah Kjorda how's it good morning Pirae So you were the one that It was a brand new Ford Ranger What happened The boss brought a brand new

Wild Tracks for his wife Yeah And picked it up from the dealer Went to the supermarket Left the Staffie in the truck And half an hour later The Indicator stick Wiper sticks

And Gernobbs all chew off Oh tude off of the dogs That you know what Again, I'm team staffie here. They should have known or not to leave it in the car. Yeah, board is... 100%. Yeah, yeah.

You take it for a walk first, and then, if anything, windows down, let them sleep in the back. Yeah, and should we finish with Susie? Because apparently she was doing something with your partner, adult-wise. Oh, no. Yes, I was. And then what happened? Okay, so my little dog, well, I don't know what she was feeling like,

but she was, like, leaped up on to bed. on mom and dad's waterbed. Waterbed? Yeah, so waterbed. She nipped at my feet, but she actually punctured the waterbed. And so therefore, we had to actually work out how we would actually

fix it before mum and dad got home. So we had to put a hose. How do you do that? Waterbeds were so expensive, but they got to puncture you with stuff. Yeah, waterbeds were a thing, eh? Like in the 80s, early 90s. I remember my parents had a waterbed. And like, it must be difficult to do the deed on because you just hear sloshing. Yeah, it would be so sloshy.

I remember I got to lie on one as a child with my friends, family friends had one. I would lie on it just for the experience. But you would just bounce up and down. But I thought, I mean, that was just me as an eight-year-old child. But if you were two humans in there, you'd roll together. Because there's no, it would just roll into one. You know what I mean? Every time you moved over, you'd get a wave.

If somebody rolled over your belt. Guy gets in the bed, pushes me on. Point. Yeah. Do I still make them? I don't think so. No, they're very hard to buy. I think the market of waterbeds have died out.

Carl would be the person. I would love one. I would love one. Let me see if there's possible. Deluxe Waterbed, yeah, yeah, actually. You'd be getting from beds for sale in Christchurch. $8,000. $8,000.

And there's Albany Waterbed Factory, waterbed.com. If you're interested in getting a waterbed. Oh, there you go. Everybody that wants a waterbed, that's where you go. If this podcast was a person, it would be banned from family gatherings. Stop, Uncle John. This is the Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Rover. Music, radio, podcasts.
