He's very good on the blade I'm a blade Yeah Like pre or post children Both In fact the reason he's got kids Is because he's so good on the blade Yeah

That light cry Last time my wife saw me, she gave me that look that made me think she wanted me to reverse the vasectomy. Yeah. I'm imagining my husband rollerblading right now and I'm actually getting the egg. I'm getting the egg

about something that hasn't even happened in real life. He's just a normal person. You watch Clindon's some blades. Something else. Easy money. Your chance to win $10,000 at 7. It continues if you had an expensive weekend. And date to the point kicks off with B.

You get to meet our eligible Bachelor at 8 o'clock. And I have some inside information that since we put a video of her up on Instagram our DMs have been flooded with eligible men saying, oh, all of a sudden I want to be involved in this game. She's hot. It's a good looking girl.

Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh my gosh. About to get into your 6am, throwback to kick off your week, so you want it to be a goodie for your Monday. Yeah, you do. That's why we've got. We've racked our brains, haven't we, guys? The options we could play today.

Why do I have Sandy Tom already cute up? Good to go. Who requested that? So she was born this day in 1981. Who the F cares? Well, you know, that's just that I go to this website this day in music and she's the number one birthday, Sandy Tom. If I was Sandy Tom and I found out that my birthday was on that website, I'd be stoked.

That's generous often. She's made it. You've made it if you're on that website. Unfortunately, you're not Ash. Yeah, that's okay. Ash London was not born on this day, apparently. Although another big day, or a big milestone, and music was on this day

back in 1969 the Jackson 5 was signed Oh It is going back a wee while Yeah that is many many years ago A B C It's easy as one two Three per four

And we've also got in the system That one you just sang ashen And brisk Now that is a throwback We're going to the 60s That's a chuno A hell of a jam You're not finding many songs better than that

In the world In the history of music I don't reckon. Their music's been remixed quite a bit as well so I feel like we could play it. There was that song by Seagala. Easy love. Yeah.

I don't know if there's Remixed Jackson 5. Yeah, apparently. Of course. This is Michael Jackson. I didn't know that. I've got two for you. This day in Altaireo chart history. So 10 years ago, 11th of August 2015,

this song from One Direction was not. Oh, hard to go past anything one day. And then, we won't pretend, we'll just be honest. In the off-air break, I said, oh, you'll never be, you're never going to believe what was number one 20 years ago. Like, I'll let you guess on air. It's, what did I say, babe, it's crazy. It's funny, it's funny.

And then Dan just looks at me. What did you say? Crazy frog. And I was like, yeah. Yeah, it's exactly what I do. Yeah. Crazy frog, hey, what a song. What was happening in the, was it a ringtone?

This is giving parents PTSD everywhere. Yeah, if anybody when this song came out, they had like kids under 10, that must have driven you insane. It was my kid's favourite song for about a year. Oh, so they'd gone late. They weren't even alive when it came out. Did it have a resurgence? Yeah, must have.

Crazy Frog's always releasing new music. It always sounds the same, though. Yeah. I'm going to veto that. I don't want crazy frog. Cigana or One Direction? My votes. It's the gala, I reckon, because it's a vibe for the, you know.

Yeah, a bit upbeat. Let's have some sagala. A little sagala to kick off your Monday morning. Yeah. Here it is then. Computer's just a little slow this point of all. Oh, yes, the computer. No.

Monday morning. Date night with Jamie, a couple tequila's, baby. We saw the Instagram. The computer's drunk, is it? No, I got a story about that, actually. I didn't get any tequila shots because I wouldn't show the crowd my pain. Anyway. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast.

Good morning. It's your 6am throwback. Get you excited for your Monday. Your week ahead. How was date night with Jamie? You guys look so... She always looks hot, let's be honest. Yeah, mum and dad took the kids to Disney on ice

and had them overnight, which if your parent is the best. Oh, Drey. You know you're not having to swing by and pick up the kids and get a few drinks. And good for your parents too, because when they go out, the kids get tired, as opposed to having to have them at home and be like, oh, let's play or something else.

You get to sleep in and have a coffee in the sun. Oh, God. So good. Sexy time, Jeff, sex? That's a very forward question, Ashley. Something talking about it like you did. Yes. He'll always answer there.

We were walking past Calozy Bar, which is like a drag show. And they put on an incredible show. And as we're walking past the glass, one of the drag queens on the mic was like, come in, you too, come in here, come in here. Do you think he recognised you? No, I don't think so. But then, coincidentally, it turns out my wife, had done the hero makeup

for one of the girls having the hens to do that. Amazing. Yeah, like that night because as we were walking past she was like, oh there's blah blah blah that day she'd done for the hands. That day.

Amazing. So this is, oh my God, there she is. And so because we kind of stopped and pointed I think we also drew attention to ourselves. Then the drag queen was like, do you guys want to kill a shots? No, not really, but you're in a room of people cheering and screaming.

You're like, fine, then they were like, wait, you're up on the stage with all the drag queens. They were just in the front door. Nightmare. And then they were like, you, show. show us your tits and you show us your dick. Imagine if you had showed them your dick and then you'd probably get fired

by this company for like showing your dick to women in public. Yeah and also, I think it's almost allowed though when the drag queen asks you. But also, I don't know, it's sort of... What, you show the dick and then like you slowly walk up to the bar, wait for the bar manager to pour your shot

because you've earned it. You're six dollar shot, however much a shot cost, I don't even know, 11 dollars. So if you, so if you, you didn't show it though, did you? No, I didn't. My wife flashed her like, bra, and then the drag queens had straight people so boring, get out of here. And so you didn't get your shot? No, no. That's good. I feel like

you would have regretted that. Yeah. You would have gone, you know what? I could have paid for my own shot. I think hopping, like waiting for the Uber and the freezing cold on the other side of the glass. Well, everyone just watched. And knowing you got your dick out for some cheap tequila. You'd feel dirty. You would have regretted it. Yeah, you would have felt dirty. You knowising yourself. You guys looked great. I'm glad you had date night. Yeah, it was fun. My in my in-law's coming two weeks. And because

we're from Australia, we don't have people to take care of Buddy overnight. So we're going to, I'm not going to see it. I'm going to be like every day when I get home from work, I'm going to be like, so you guys are all good? We're gone out every night for two weeks. Good on you. Why are we going to go? I even know, me and agent have never been out as a couple at night in

warm. My wife just randomly when we're out at dinner, just not even talking about work. She goes, well, she got drinking with Ash and her husband. And she goes, do you think they'd go, or is that weird? We'd definitely go. Oh, if you want to go drinking with Ash and...

We're just not drinkers, though. That's fine. I've seen Adrian drunk once. Oh, we don't do drugs. Okay. No, no, no, I'm definitely not. You know me. I'd be bringing in all my bloody herbal lotions and potions.

Just remember this, Ash, every couple that goes out with Clinton and his wife end up nude in their spa pool. Oh, man. That's totally awkward because Adrian is his boss. Yeah. If we were all, if no one was anyone's boss, I would 100% hope that we would do. do something as the couples that night that we'd be bit embarrassed about the next day. So we'd have to avoid eye contact for Lua.

And also, while I'm on the subject, also super randomly, I was just driving my kids home from Waterpolo, and Cam goes, Dad, can you tell Dan at work on Monday that I think he's really cool? Oh, did you make that up? No, I promised.

And I said, why? What does he do this? Because she goes, I don't know, he's just cool. He's just funny. Just tell him. All right, you know what? She's only human. She's only, she knows. It wasn't even like we were listening to the adjo or anything. She was just randomly thinking about us.

Can you tell Dan, I think he's cool? There you go. Do that make you feel good? It does. So they want to go out drinking with me and they dream, but not you. But they think so cool, that's my time. Yeah, so I don't know I'd rather go out drinking. Well, you weren't invited.

No, 10-year-olds are hard, mate. That's true. They'll tell you, Dickette, if they think so. That's really put a spring in my step if I'm honest. Clint, Megan, Dan. Leshull! First call of the day! First call on the day!

Oh, yeah, he's bright and early. Come on. He's getting the worm, Jacob from Southland. Do you guys want to know a bit about Jake? Please. 19 years old. He's a young and he works at Woolworths. He does the night shift there.

He drives a Volkswagen. He's got a cat called Scotty. Sootty, I believe. He's an Aquarius. He's broken his arm twice. And he's been with his partner for 18 months. Started young. Morning, Jacob.

That's like one 15th of his life. He's been with his partner. Morning, Jake. Hello. Ghetto, it's a shame you don't live in Mount Eden, Auckland, working at Woolworth. You see the old First Division winner still hasn't been claimed. Oh, 200K or something, isn't it?

250, yeah. Oh, jeez, it'll be nice. Yeah, do you go, do the old lot of tickets at work before you, you know, leave on a Saturday? Yeah, no, I don't. I'm not there when lot of tickets are sold. He's not a gambling man. He's a night shift guy.

Do you do the shelf stacking? Is that your role? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've always wanted to do that. I feel like that's one of those jobs that you go. You don't really have to think. I know. It doesn't too much thinking.

You put shit in the wrong shelves. It stresses me out. Really? Finding it, they're putting it in the exact right place. Yeah, but you know. And there's some of it's variations on all the different products. Okay, what's the biggest drop ball you've had at work, Jacob? How bad does it get?

Oh, I only actually just started, so I haven't really had anything bad yet. Oh, good. Thank goodness. And you won't because, you know what? You just get. to work. You don't take it home with you. It's a stress-free job. What's the aspiration though? One day you work out how it all works

and buy yourself one, Jacob? Buy yourself a Woolworths? Yeah. Are they franchises? I don't think you can buy it. Can you buy a Walworth Jacob? You can buy a new world. Yeah. You can work your way up to like store manager I think but yeah. It's good though. So if you want to buy a McDonald's, you have to work on the shop floor all the way out. My cousin bought two and all my cousins gave him crap for

working at Maccas and he's like, you watch now. He's so rich. He owns two of them. He's like a mogul of McDonald's. And the bank will give you any person that owns a Macca's gets a loan for whatever you want. Really? Because they're like money makers.

Yeah, they print money. I've heard a lot of those. Sorry, Jake, we're getting very distracted here talking about Maccas. So you love your partner? Do you reckon there's marriage on the horizon or too early to tell too young to think about that? No, I think there is. Oh, I love this boy.

Come on. Working hard. Think about the future. What's stopping you from proposing getting down on one knee? Yeah, 19. still too young, hey, Jacob? Yeah. What's the timeline?

I know the timeline always changes, but what is it? It's kind of like married mid-20s, all going well? Oh, mate, I haven't thought that far ahead, to be honest, yeah. Yeah, you don't want to scare her away if she's listening either. It's the kind of girl that he would love to settle down with,

but he doesn't want to make concrete plans. He's a young man. Yeah, live your life. Live your life. Your 20s are for, like, spending your money, living it up, And you get to your 30s, you can start thinking about settling down. True. All right, well, we're going to give you a voucher-go-spend in store a Z

so you can get stuck into the tight chicken curry pie for like, Jacob on the way home. Okay, sweet, thank you. Good on you and Jacob. Thanks for listening. He's a good man. He's a good man. He's a lot of battler.

Yeah. He's not a battler. He's 19. What battles is he on his own? Oh, he's battling away. No, he's not. Maybe Dan was battling a 19. I've been battling with acne and women.

You don't get wrinkles like this without a little bit of battling. I've got my first wrinkle with sweet guys across my forehead. Can you see it? Oh, Jesus. Nothing Botox works or whatever. I think I'm going to do it. Get Botox. Good on you.

It's funny because most people don't talk about it. Oh, I would talk about it. Yeah, so I do care. There's a reason why Clint constantly looks surprised and has no wrinkles. Of course he'd get Botox. If Clint wasn't getting Botox, I'd be like, what? Do you know about Botox? He's actually 77 years old.

The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Club Meg and Dan with Ash London scandal The Voice AU is in full swing That's the one where they sit in the chairs And swing their chairs around My theory on that show though Is that I don't care about whatever happens After they swing the chairs around

Yeah, after that it gets a bit boring right I like the swinging bit Just show us the swinging done with the season And they argue for so long back and forth It's like shut up, just let them choose Who are the hosts this year Because I Sebastian used to be by Sonia Kruger, but the judges, yeah, we've got Richard Marks,

who you might be thinking, never heard of Richard Marks, I guarantee you you'll know his tunes. Oh, I thought this is Brian Adams. A lot of, I also thought as a child it was Brian Adams, but I'll make Richard Marks. He's got some other songs that I don't know where they're called, but you'll know. Oh, he's like a 90s, got an 80s, maybe even.

And there's the one about walking on the beach, that one. Walk down the night and the beach. Rivers and beaches, clenip, their bodies of water, all right? Yeah, take it a walk. Yeah, in a moment. So it's him and then it's Mel C., a sporty spice. And then we've got Ronan Keating, obviously, from Westlife. No, Boyzone.

Is he supposed to be the replacement for Guy Sebastian? I think so, but Ronan's done a lot of Australian singing shows over the years. He's kind of him and Brian McFadden. Yeah, he's no guy, though. He's a lovely man. And then we've got an Australian singer who represents. presented us at Eurovision called Kate Mill Heideke. So they're the four people. The reason

I want to talk about it in scandal, though, is because Altero's own, Cassie Henderson last night, we know her from this one. What's it called? This song? Seconds to midnight. She put it on her Instagram yesterday, I'm going to be on the voice tonight. And I was like, oh, that's very controversial. And I thought, she's not going to put it on her Instagram unless some chairs

turn, at least one chair turn. Anyway, this is her performance. She did Pink Pony Club by Chapel Road. I don't know you've luck, babe, wrong song. I told you so, you know, I hate to save her. I told you so. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. And you say it's just the way you are making new excuse. And they already turns away for the d-s. Come on. Yeah. You got the turn And come on. To stop the world.

To stop it's feel. I'm not so good turn by now. She got the four chair turn. A four turn. Wow. And it's so funny when I watch it. And this is so bad. But when someone's hot, like Casey Hemson,

when the judge turns and sees that they're the package, the relief on their face. I know. You don't want to turn and see an agmo. Which defeats the whole point of show. Which is it shouldn't matter That's why they face the other way Although, being an ACMO

I think on these sort of TV shows Does do you a solid It's the thing as Susan Boyle You know, like she's got the voice of an angel The Face of her, you know But I mean But really, let's be honest Can you name anyone that's ever won

The Voice Australia? I can't, oh I can Um Um She's proved her own point there Um, no, no no, no Bella, Bella, something or other There she goes

She's saying, Remember I showed you the view of her singing the prayer with Guy Sebastian. She's a better singer than anyone that's ever been on the voice. She also sang, the reason why you got confused with Pink Pony Club in her performance on the voice is because she actually did, you probably heard she did Pink Pony Club hit the spot. That was violent. It smashed it.

On the show. And this is how close you got. I'm just having fun. On the stage in my heels, it's where I belong down at the pink pony club. Nailed it. Pretty good. And they say anybody that can now hit the spot can win the voice. Well, you would be winning the voice.

America, England, New Zealand, Australia. Just send me over. I'll get a four-turner. Yeah. Is that what they call it? Four-tier turn. Four-chair turn. Imagine if you won the voice, Clint would never forgive you because that's your dream.

Oh, yeah. He would never. I think we wouldn't talk again. If you win on Guy Sebastian's team, I'd be like, oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Would you rather a five-year deal to host the voice or to win it on Guy Sebastian's team? I dig the host thing I get to hang out with him for five seasons

Oh yeah true Yeah I'm rather sick Yeah me and Guy Like hey man after we finish work Do you want to go grab a beer He's like yeah obviously I'm like okay cool No here go God Clint keeps asking me for a beer

I don't think of anything worse He doesn't want to hang out with the contestants Yeah true Clint Megan Dan Stinky Boo Full Moon yesterday I'm not entirely sure what that means Except for the fact that

Linda our psychic joins us to give a bit of bad news, typically, with the bad news hotline. It's not always bad news, Clint, but sometimes it is. And I'm the one, I don't beat around the bush, my darling. So I just tell you like it is. Because a lot of psychics will only tell you the great things. But I guess Linda's point is that if she can brace you for the negative things to come, you can kind of maybe work out how you're going to pivot.

My waters are much stronger when there's a full moon round, darling. Really? Did you put crystals out to charge them? Oh, yes. I've got my crystals everywhere inside. me. Nice. Now, my darling, Ash, she's new in the room. I've never met you before, my darling, but I get an Australian twang. I did that, you are good.

She's good, I'm Australian. Correct. We're about to you from, my darling. Melbourne. Melbourne, yes. I told you I didn't like Australians, can't stand them. My first husband was an Australian, and I fed him a Beef Wellington with some mushroom in it, and that was the end of him.

See you later. Yes, but I'm just, I'm going to do a reading for you, my darling, just before we get started. And I can see that you're, um, You think you've got a happy life, don't you? Yeah, I'm pretty happy. You've got a husband, you've got a child. Everything's coming up ash. But I will say this.

This is terrifying. Her eyes just went all serious, like boring into my soul. I'll give you some good news first, my darling, because there is some good news. You're going back home. You'll be going back home very, very soon. In the next sort of 18 months or so, you'll be going back to Australia, where you're going along, not bludging off us, Kiwis. And you'll be going back alone without your husband. unfortunately.

Oh no, is he going to die? Not going to die. No, he's going to be, um, he's moving on to a much older woman. Oh, older? Future reading and he's going to be... So you're going to steal my husband? Yes, I'm going to steal your husband. Yes.

Oh, have you met him? Long luscious hair. He's got very similar hair to me, if I'm honest. This is a little bit gray. I've got a bit of a ginger tinge through my mother, darling. He's got ginger pubs. Yes, oh my goodness me. Well, you tell me.

I also know that you're going to be. go back to Australia and you're going to become a lesbian. Really? And I know it doesn't seem like it's going to happen right now. Can you see that in your future? No, definitely not. Never had before? No, no, no, no. Well, it is going to happen my darling. So later in life, lesbian. And when I say later in life I said in the next 18 months, you move back with your son. You've got a son?

Yep. Yes. She's good. Yes. It's very good. Good memory. That'll be your last child because unfortunately you won't be able to have other kids with women. And so... What about like sperm donation or something? It's very expensive And you've lost your job obviously It's not looking good

But you will find love with another lady Okay Okay, well that's not all bad news But I was hoping to You know Live a long life with my husband And you know Not gonna happen my darling

Okay Okay So just move on And just you count your lucky stars That you've at least got something in your life Okay It's looking good But you can call up

What's the number here Clinton Oh 800 the age Yes you call up And I'll give you a future reading I will give you good news But I do focus on the bad stuff Yeah, look, mine wasn't feeling me with a lot of excitement about the future. But, hey, can't always...

Well, I guess maybe you put a little bit more investment into the marriage and start working out, like, what, you could be doing better, Ash. So the agent doesn't leave me for... Yeah, you can't change it because it's so close now. He will leave you. Oh, really? So there's not much you can do about that, darling. Too late.

Just count your lucky stars. You've got other good things in your life. Yeah. I'm just likeing for a job back in Australia. You won't get one, but you can have a little. Dan Norton's studio with us because we have Linda, who is our resident psychic off the back of the full moon. Was it, Linda, yesterday? Yes, that song by her, the messy describes the night I spent with Clinton.

Oh, is it messy? I could walk for weeks after that night. Nice. Tell you what. What a lovely evening it was. What an insight. Less about me and more about the people that would love a reading from you, Linda. Oh, I'd love to get a reading.

Like Moyawa, who joins us on the show this morning. Moyawa, good morning. Good morning. Good morning. What a lovely name, Moyhauer. Oh, not everyone thinks that. I think it's a fantastic name, a bit different, much better than Sarah or Jill. Does it mean sleeping water or like still river?

Still water, sleeping river. Our is a river and more you sleep. Beautiful. You sound quite old, Moawa. Oh, yeah, my old past a due date, but I'm still going. Past the due date. I love that you're like, yeah, it might be a little bit of, I still love listening to the edge.

Yeah, she's on the edge, baby. Yeah. Well, all the, well, all the adaptations are boring, you know. Yes, I tell you what. Yeah, I like her. There's nothing I get more depressed when I listen to that, the breeze. Goodness, me, nothing more. Yeah, well, you know, I'm young at heart, you know,

that's keep up with my grandchildren and my children. Yes. Anyway, Moa, I can say there is a lot going on in your life. You come across like you're a very busy woman. Is that you've got a big family, I guess? Yes. Now, I will say this, that there's, you know, there is going to be a time in your future where you do pass.

And, you know, that's going to be, you know, in a few years' time. And everybody dies, you know. But I will say this, make sure you get everything in order because there's going to be a bit of a shit fight over your will. Oh, yeah. Does that surprise you, Moyawa, that your children are going to be fighting over your will after you pass? I'm already predicting that

and I have so for the last 10 years. Yes, you know, and I'll tell you what, people are going to come out of the woodwork and they're going to be fighting over that money that you've hard earned. So here's my advice to you, my darling. Spend every cent. Spend every, don't let the...

I'm going to wait until I win these radio competitions first. Yes, well, I'll tell you this. Here's another bit of home truth. You're not going to win one. So don't even know... You might get a pie or something from Z but there's nothing else. You know, that sounds good.

No, she is good. Yeah, I was going to give you a voucher to go spend in store at Z. And I'm not sure how Linda would have even known that. So, hey. So congratulations. She's good. You hold there, uh, Moyaa, and we'll get a voucher out to you. How did you know that?

Well, you know, I'm a future reader, my darling. Okay, well, what about Lana? Morning, Lana. Hello, how are you? Very, very good. Love you to bits. Have you ever heard your name spelled backwards? Oh, geez.

Sadly, I have. Yeah. Yeah. But I understand. Anyway, my darling. Now, I can see the chore. I'm sensing your mid-20s. Mm-hmm.

And you've got a partner. Now, how long have you been with your partner out of interest, my darling? About three years. Leave him. Oh. Because I feel like there's some things going on behind the scenes that you don't know about, my darling, and you deserve better. Like what?

Can you give us any details? Well, I think he's got a wandering eye, Ash, much like your husband. Yeah. But I think that he's, you know, he looks outside the relationship for comfort and it's something that you're perhaps not giving him. I feel like your life should be better put towards another person that wants you to be with. Oh, ringing any bells, Lona? Oh, I don't know.

I don't know. You've got to have to start. Of course, you don't know because he's cheating on you. Okay. Lana, do you know his pass code to his phone? Yeah, I do. He's not cheating, then. I do a bit of digging then this afternoon.

I'll tell you was passcode. Is your name spelt backwards? Give it a go. All right, Lana. I'm so sorry, Lana. No, you're not. No, I'm not. All right.

You're naughty. Anyway, this has been fantastic, isn't it? And you know what? Even though it's bad news, sometimes you can, you know, use that bad news for good. Yeah, well, I'm going to be a later in life lesbian. Yes, and look forward to that, my darling. I am going to start looking forward to it.

There's nothing wrong with a bit of rug. always said that. Okay. Have you? Okay. In fact, I'm a lesbian right now. Just the second. Yes, I'm just changed.

So why is my husband going to leave me for you, but then you and me are going to run off after that? Nice. That's the dream. Okay. All right, hey, if you want to win $10,000 with easy money, oh, 800, the edge. Give us call you an expensive weekend.

We're going to try and top up the bank account once again. Are they going to win, Linda, next? I'd be lying if I said yes. The Clint Megan Dan podcast. for a hopeless Romantics Hotline. Today I want to talk about ghosting guys. Oh, yes.

Now, the three of us are very lucky. We're very happily married. We've got children. We're kind of past, hopefully forever, past the stage of ever having to kind of be out there in a dating pool. And I think when we were on the market,

so for me that was kind of like eight, nine years ago, how long since you've been single, Clint? Before the dating apps, man. I was with my wife when I was 19, 49, 21 years. Okay, so a very long time. What about you, Dan? Coming up 10 years. Okay, so a long time. And I feel like it means we all kind of missed out on this phenomenon known as ghosting, which for so many young people especially is just part of

getting out there. And it's a ruthless thing to do, I feel. Horrible. So the research says that 84% of Gen Z and millennials have been ghosted. We spoke to a chick one time, though, who was married and ghosted her husband. She ghosted him. She left the country. That's right. Came to New Zealand and sent him an email. Yeah. Oh my God.

But I wonder whether there was more to it than that. You know, he must have been an asshole for her to have to do that. I don't think that's ghosting, though. I think ghosting is pre-commitment. Like, in the dating stage, you're testing the waters with somebody. You think that you're working towards something and then poof, they disappeared. But if you just got home from work today and your husband, Adrian, all of his stuff was gone. You didn't know where he went.

He'd be like, he'd be ghosted. What do we call this? I'd be stuffed. I don't even know how to log into my stuff. by banking app without him. Like, if he wanted to ruin me, he so easily could. And we, I went under the edge or three, three, three on the text. He never wore it.

He's the loveliest guy. I would love to hear from you if you have got an experience of being ghosted for us to kind of discuss this, because it is unacceptable. One of my friends, Alice, weren't Miami sharing this story back in Australia? She'd been seeing this guy long distance for like eight months. Like, she'd gone to see him in once and he'd come to her. And now they were speaking every day, exclusive. and it got to the day where he was supposed to fly to Melbourne to meet her family.

Uh-oh. She went to the airport to pick him up, parked, walked in, waiting there, waiting, never got off the plane, texting him, he never replied, called him, never applied. It's been years. She's now with somebody else, they've got a baby, she's very, very happy. But the emptiness and the wondering and the aching, what did I do, where is that person? Yeah. That's an extreme case of ghosting.

Because usually it's just you've had, send a few texts, maybe. been on a couple of dates and then you just stop texting back. That's your textbook ghosting. Yes. But then that is, that's taking things to the next level. Yeah, yeah. And I think generally does more often happen the guy, does it? Because I think we still live in a society where

maybe the men are expected to like, they have to do the asking. What's funny? Frischers and shaking his head in the producer booth. No, no, no. He doesn't ghost. He gets ghosted, I think. God damn right, Clint. And how far end is the ghosting happening? Um, my

recent example, I was talking to a girl for maybe like two or three months we'd gone on two or three dates and then we went to the Coldplay concert she came, stayed at my house afterwards and I got slow ghosted over the course of two weeks When you say stayed over? A slow ghosted?

Stayed over at my place, yeah. But like we were texting all day every day and then it slowed down to kind of a couple texts a day and then it was a text every couple of days and then it was just absolutely nothing after like two weeks, just completely slow goes. You just. Weaned you off of it. Yeah, exactly.

Weaned me off of the messaging. Were you then texting like, hey, where are you, and nothing? No, I just kind of let it simmer away and whatever. And then after a couple weeks, I said, hey, something's changed here. What, like, what have I done that? Have I done anything that's annoyed you? And she said, oh, no, it's not anything to do with me. I'm just not ready to be talking to someone.

I would say that's not a ghosting. No, I think a ghosting has to be straight away. It has to be like we were cool. No closure. No closure. The fact that she even said, it's still shitty of her to do that. Yeah, but she only said that because I hit her up about it because I'm anxious. That needs to have its own name.

Yeah, what do we call? Like a... You got spit-ghosted. Yeah, I call that one a slow ghost. Yeah, it's a slow ghost. Fade out. We're already getting some texts with one specific controversial opinion on ghosting. So if you have been ghosted, if you've done the ghosting, or maybe you know someone who's got a pretty good story,

we would love to talk ghosting up next and we can help you kind of come to some better. conclusions, find some better skills because we're all relationship experts. Someone's saying one to two dates, ghosting's fine. It is the Hopeless Romantics Hotline. You can actually listen to the Hopeless Romantics podcast that hosted by our very own Ash London. You sure can, on Rover, wherever get your podcasts.

Hell of a podcast. Now, I follow, we're talking about ghosting this morning. I follow up someone on Instagram called A Little Nudge, and she's a dating coach. Erica. Yes, we've had her on the show many times. She's awesome. I love myself.

Samaric. Oh, that's so crazy. Yeah, she'll just give you, like, the perfect prompt for, like, any situation. Well, I've got the prompt here for if you've been ghosted. Because we are talking about ghosting. It's happened to 84% of Gen Z's and Millennials, which is disgusting. That's a crazy stat. So I'm going to read you the template that she suggests that you send if you've been ghosted. Let's say it's been a week or do they're not replying to your messages.

Oh, you can copy and paste. Exactly. Love. Let's say Clint has ghosted me. This is what I'd text him. Hi, Clint. I had really enjoyed our time together and was hoping to continue better getting, sorry. Oh, gosh.

I'm no Erica. I was hoping to continue getting to know each other. So I'm disappointed I didn't hear back from you. Just wanted to close the loop. Wish you the best. And what that message does is it allows you to have the final word. Not in a vindictive way, just so you can feel like you've got some power over the situation.

And it also lets the other person know, what you did was really crappy. I'm cool and I'm moving on, but I don't want to let you get away without acknowledging that the behaviour was bad. And I think that's a good prompt. I reckon it's really crappy, especially when the relationship, like maybe you've gone on two or three dates

and you feel like something's there. Yes. And then they just rip the band-aid off and ghost you. I feel like that's really cruel. I absolutely agree. Ruby is on the phone. Yeah. Ruby may disagree.

Ruby, at what point do you think ghosting is acceptable, if at all? Good morning. I think it's fine within the first couple weeks, maybe a month. What's wrong? I've been talking for a while and then you go on a couple days. I think it's fine. What's wrong with just going, hey, look, this is not working out? Yeah.

Instead of just literally stopping replying. Well, I mean, that would be better, but I don't think you owe each other much, to be honest. But don't you owe them the, at least just a text to be like, hey, thanks, but no thanks. Yeah, even though you may want to pursue something, I don't, in which case, let's just end it there. Yeah, I haven't actually, I don't believe I've ghosted anything. one, but, like, I have been ghosted, and it's just like, yeah. I guess it's kind of like, I guess if you change hairdresser or mechanic, you don't message your old hairdresser or your mechanic, go, hey, just letting you know,

I'm actually going to see other mechanics now. Like, you just stop going there. That person has a lot of clients, you know what I mean? Dating is a one-on-one thing. And you're not shagging your mechanic. Well, unfortunately for you, Dan. Because Dan famously said he's got a really hot mechanic, Candia Automotive. Not for me.

A man or a woman. It was a man, so I didn't find him necessarily attracted for myself. Oh, whatever you didn't. But I will say he was easy on the eye. There'd be a lot of people that'd be like... I'd be into that, yeah. Dan had to go to a new mechanic after that because it got so weird because we got him on and everything. Oh, no, that is weird.

Now, Mirren, is it, is it? Yes, it is. Yeah, you've been ghosted before by a guy. Yeah, more than once, unfortunately. But the one I was talking about, we were together for about six months. He moved over to America because he was a... like international guy, and then literally one month after being there, nothing. An international.

He was from overseas and he travels around, but literally nothing. Do you think he was one of these people that kind of he does travel around and he does it on purpose to leave people in different ports? I mean, in hindsight maybe, but then there's things that definitely made it real. Like, it was truly awful when he left. Of course it was. Both in tears, like, and here's the kicker. He actually, he left a little note in my bag.

So we stayed in the hotel the night before he left. I got home, unpacked my bag, found a note, and he told me he loved me for the first time. And then ghosted you? Yeah. Yeah, he did. Wow. It's dark.

There must have been something. Maybe he went home and there was something that he got home and he was like, oh, my God, I need to sort this out. Yeah, like his wife and kids who live in America. It sounds to me... That's a dumb back story there. It sounds to me like he's an absolute narcissist and I would imagine that him writing that note

to you is his way as making himself feel better and giving you a nice shot of happy hormones knowing full well and he was never going to speak to again because he's a coward and a dog. He doesn't deserve it. I mean, in reality, we probably never were... It was never going to work, but that's not the point. At the time, that's pretty...

And you take it personally. Like, you can't help but take it personally. and you had hopes and dreams. Someone sticks through saying someone that does ghost, I think this is very true. Someone that does ghosting lacks respect and accountability to be able to discuss things like adults. I think that's so true.

She said, if you get ghosted, you dodged a bullet. Move on and be thankful for the ghosting. If you stay with that person and they are the kind of person that would ghost you, you're not going to be able to have hard conversations when you grow up about raising kids, about finances. You need someone who's man or woman enough to be able to take responsibility for themselves. And that's, I think, the most important part

of our healthy marriage is having hard conversations. It is. If you like more channel, I download the podcast, Hopeless Romantics on Rover with Ash London. Next on the show, we go from ghosting to roasting after the comment section blew up on the daily mail of Dan thinking the old lady in the Titanic was really on the Titanic back in 1912.

We've gone international. Can't believe we're picking this scab again. Thought this one was healing over over the weekend, but it turns out no. If you've missed it, Dan thought that the Titanic was like documentary meets drama and the old lady that tells the story as Rose was actually on the Titanic in 1912 and fell in love with a boy named Jack.

And it turns out that a lot of people shared my views as well. I'm beginning to think that maybe because it was the 90s, it was one of those things where just a rumour spread and we didn't have the internet to fact check. So people just told people and then everyone just believed it. Maybe that's how it got you. I think it was just so believable in the movie itself. No, I don't want to fight with you again.

But it's so not because it's a drama. Yeah. You've got some comments from people on Daily Mail who saw this. Because we put up a video over the weekend and the Daily Mail grabbed it and then they post it and then their comment section started blowing up. Oh, MFG, seriously. People who believed it was real-life scenario reenacted are rather too stupid to be allowed to leave or just thick. Well, this person's commenting on.

a daily mail page, though, I think they're the stupid one. And then Chewy Chips-A-Hoy said, so he's an idiot, that's all you had to say. No long article necessary. Chewy chips-ahoy. How about this one? Good point. From Ms. Anon, these

people walk amongst us. They vote, have children, drive cars, and operate heavy machinery. How is this so? FFS, which means for FSA. I don't operate heavy machinery. Thank God. Very light. Remote control cars. even turn his own mic on. I do that.

That's too heavy for me. Then there's other comments that it's just like, in general, they're angry at the whole concept of the Titanic film. Fred the Shed from Leicester says a good film spoiled by a rubbish love story. Oh, for goodness sake. He's never had sex. That man has never had a woman touch his pain. Oh, man.

Did I say that? 726. I'm good. Oh, you said it already. And then someone else also, it's just grown into this large anger with the film. JTCW, Sydney, Australia. The real tragedy of the movie is poor. or Rose's husband gave her an amazing life. They weren't married yet. Yet she never liked him that much

and always had a thing for Jack. Alpha widowed on the cargo deck. What does that mean? I don't know. Sometimes you just can't read too much into these comments. They're saying the husband was widowed. Oh, right. Then I see another comment down further saying, face for radio.

They haven't specified who they're talking about. Clinton Randall, Auckland, New Zealand. That lets think of a fake name, bro. Come on. So Dan was still sassing me out over the weekend with his mum and I got this message from Dan with his mum in the background. Mum, did you think that that lady in the Titanic, the old Rose, was real? Unfortunately, yes, I did, Daniel.

So she is the same as me. And there hundreds of other people that thought she was a legit person. It went on and on for a while and I went back. It's important to note that Dan, myself and Meg will talk quite aggressively lead to each other because we know we're always at the heart of it joking. Clint talks about. Yeah, yeah.

And so listening to this back, it was maybe a little harsher that I remember when I was shouting in my phone on my way home. Dan, that's really more of an insight into like the Weeby household. And now maybe understandably it's where you got it from because your mum's not pulling you up on these things. It doesn't matter if you find 5,000 people that all had the same stupid thought as you. All you're saying is there are,

more stupid people out there like you. Listen to her, just yelling down the phone at my dear old mother. Then I, then, oh, your dear old mother. She's in her 70s, Clint. Sent this back to me. Clint, just calm the fuck down, okay? Now do you want to send that, do you? Yes, face.

Okay, so you just press that button. I love it. So, like. We're not happy. Can we put it to bed now? Are we ready to move on from the whole Titanic? I was ready until this guy brought it up, Ash. Yeah, well, it's a daily mail fault for reposting it.

And then I feel now we can just... My mum might have beep with your mum. Uh-oh. I didn't have a bit of mum beam. Yeah, delicious. Yeah, if my mum's listening this morning and she just heard the way her son was spoken to by your mum, there could be problems.

Oh, that's one thing that I think we would get the shits up my mum. If your mum called my mum and was like, stop bullying my boys. Hey, it doesn't seem like the type of thing I show wouldn't do What's your mum doing right now? She's probably still in bed Okay, good Yeah

Well, if your mum doesn't know that we've just talked about this Then she can expect probably a call from Christine Randall Yeah, she'll be asleep at the stage What's this thing? Clint's mum, we're getting some morning delight, probably Yeah Morning nookie If I was a betting man

Clint, Megan Dan Scandal A scandal Quite a scandal Scandal with Ash London. So two weeks ago or so, Fantastic Four, premiered in the newest Marvel incarnation with Pedro Basque, Pedro Pascal, and Vanessa Kirby.

Well, the figures have come out. And as someone that's not a big Marvel head myself, when I saw how much money the film had made so far, I thought, oh, I've got a runaway success. And then I found out barely breaking even. Really? Because of the amount of money they spend. So it's made $400 million at the box office so far,

and now it'll plateau out because, you know, the big money is made in the first couple weekends. which means it may not even break even. Wow, didn't have a budget like close to that? It must have been. And I thought that was really crazy. And then I looked up the kind of highest grossing superhero films of all time, most of which are Marvel films.

Now, I said the challenge before the break down, I said, do you reckon you would know which one was the highest grossing? What was your guess? I would have seen in game. Is that because there's someone who's not a huge Marvel guy? It's all the biggest characters all coming together for one. film so you've got to pay some massive sort of coin to get them all there.

But it was also the sort of a crescendo of a big arc of movies, wasn't it? So it was like everybody, all the stuff was pointing towards that movie. So I'd imagine that would be one of. So there's the Avengers, the Avengers of Age of Alteron and then Infinity War so End game was the end. Well you're absolutely

right. And that made $2.8 billion. Oh, against 400 million. Yes, so when you compare it like that, you go okay. So of the top five, How many of the top five do you think are Avengers films? This is superhero films of all time. I would say most of them would be Avengers.

I'd maybe go 100%. Yeah, four out of five. Really? And the only other one is Spider-Man No Way Home from 2021. Which is also a Marvel, really. They're all wonderful. Itching to get into this combo about superheroes. Yeah, fun fact.

So they've just released all those Fantastic Four skins on Fortnite. So I've just picked up a whole bunch of new Fantastic Four skins. It's really, really cool. He has been planning that one all weekend, hasn't he? Nerd alert. How can I make a four skins joke on the rate? Oh, wait till, yeah, okay, very well done. So you had two skins and you bought two more skins.

How many skins have you got now? Yeah, I got four fantastic four skins, yeah. Fantastic. Here we go. I will say this, you know Robert Downey Jr. Iron Man? Yes, Iron Man. So he signed a deal, I think, quite early on in the end game kind of movie.

Yeah, yeah. where he got a percentage of all earnings. So he didn't get like an initial salary from the movie. So I don't know what it was, but he ended up making bank from that film. Like millions and millions of dollars. He's earned an estimate. Guess, just guess.

Oh, God. It'd be probably hundreds of millions. I'd say 400 million. Yeah, 400 million dollars. No wonder he doesn't work much anymore. US dollars. Crazy, eh? What a way?

Do you know what though? I love that for him, that he's like bankrolled himself. Like he believes in himself enough that he's like not Rather than taking the guaranteed cash I think that I can make this film And this character is so big That His first appearance is Iron Man in 2008

He made half a million dollars for his role He's got a great story as well Like he was down and out Like basically he was an alcoholic, a drug addict He was in and out of rehab for many many years Then he signed on to do the marble movies And his whole life turned around Half a million though for Iron

Iron Man won. So it wasn't like an instant success. Well, if he was like fresh out of rehab, that would make sense that he just needed something. And the Iron Man movie sort of kicked off, kicked off this new era of marble. Yeah. So cool. Yeah. I love things like that that I don't know much about it from the periphery looking in and watching, hearing stuff like that. So cool.

I've never watched Iron Man, have you? No. You haven't lived. Oh, no. I think, I think in the same way that when four years ago I watched all the Harry Potter's for the first time in one week, having not read or seen them, and I changed my life.

I feel like me and my husband need to just commit and like choose one. Maybe we'll do Avengers. Where do you start? I mean, you can sort of, I reckon the best place to start is Iron Man or one of the Spider-Man's. Okay.

And then you kind of, that's your entry level and then you kind of just go in. But I think you start with Avengers. I have seen the Toby McGuire upside and Dad kissing one. Yeah. I'd start a bit later than that. Yeah, okay. So start at Iron Man

and then maybe do some Tom Holland and Spider-Man. Okay, I'm into that. I can do that. baby, I can do thank you so much. You're welcome. A couple of weeks ago, turned over a new leaf. Did I, though? In theory, I turned over a new leaf.

And this is maybe the problem with the internet now, is it so easy to sign up things. Oh, God, is it what? Yeah. So we're sitting in the studio, and, you know, I'm doing long days at the moment, and then I have to pick up my son at 3.30 in the afternoon. And I'm really struggling with that 1pm to 3 p.m. Slump. Do you nap?

Well, if you nap, you wake up feeling like crap, you know, like what else made it? So I thought, I'm going to do it. join the gym. And while we're in the studio, I've got on my laptop, did some research, and there's a jets between home and kindi. I thought, perfect, perfect. You know, sign up. Start today. Send me the QR. I can go today. I can go that day. That was the plan, you know. Just go that day. Quick, and it's all done. Get it done. Yeah. And I'm not hardcore here. 15 minutes on a treadmill listening to a podcast, maybe some, you know, like resistance training,

half an hour. I'll go that day. Of course. That day I was going to go. What happened, though? That was 11 days ago. Brilliant. I am yet to set foot in that gym. Now, it's not looking good because a lot of people will join a gym and then go for a couple of weeks and they'll be really good. And then they peter off.

And I'm not even there. You just peter off if you didn't peter in. Gone. And do you know, my excuse that I'm telling myself is that because I had the flu a month ago, I'm still in post-viral recovery. I don't want to overdo it. But really, I just have to take that first step. I just, I'm just so lazy.

I'm so lazy. I find it so hard to get off the couch when I'm. I'm on the couch. I almost think we need to take you to the gym. Because I think once you go... Yeah, kicking and screaming. You know, like push her and cleansing them or lock the door behind her and go... Because I think once she's at once...

You're on her left leg and I'm on her right leg trying to make it move forward on the trimble. Yeah, and I feel like once I get in there and have one good experience, I really am the kind of... It's really easy for me to commit to things once I'm going. But I can't even get myself to go there. So what you need is a positive experience. So what we're going to do is we'll send Ash to the gym later this week. We want everybody, listeners-wise, to turn up at the gym as well and just compliment Ash while she's on the treadmill.

No, I just need one hot guy at the gym to walk past and be like... My brother owns a gym. Okay. Anytime fitness in Henderson. Oh, but I thought it a bit of jet. It's like an idiot. Oh, well, if you want a hot guy, he's there Monday to Friday. Is he married?

It doesn't matter if he's married. I'm married too. I don't know why I asked that. Pretend I didn't ask that. Is he into extramarital stuff? I tell you what's good for your abs and a fair. Gosh, why. All that pump in and grinding.

Normally, yeah, normally it's the post-break-up bods everyone's trying to get. Yeah. We've got some of the costs, the average cost, city fitness, eight bucks a week, Jets, 13 a week, snap, and any time, you're looking at 16, 17 a week.

So look, if you're not going... Yeah. The thing was city fitness is, though, yes, I was going there, and it's literally walking distance from my house. I had to stop. I don't care if it was $8, $10, $50, I couldn't, it was so busy.

You would be like, I'm just going to, no, I won't do chess because all the benches. Oh, no. They won't. And I think they bank on that as their system. It's so cheap. But if everyone uses it, in the end I'd do like calves and biceps, like every day

because it was the only machines that are available. I prefer it. I prefer it to be busy because then if I go, then I just sit on the machine and no one else wants it, I don't do it. Whereas if I rush because there's someone waiting for me. Yeah, yeah. You know? But I reckon there's people out there right now that are worse than you ash that have been a member of like, you know, Les Mills for 17 years and being three times. At that point, it's donating.

once I was a member of Virgin Active and I thought that I had pre-married, so if my husband's listening this wasn't our money that I wasted, was pre, I had thought I had cancelled it. I swear on baby Jesus. I thought I'd cancelled and I'm not rich

just very financially bad, didn't like to check my bank account. So one day I finally had to look for a transaction or a dodgy transaction and then I realised that it had been like, you know, two years and I've been paying for Virgin Active every month. Oh my gosh. And you can't go back. I've tried it before and going,

I haven't been an age as can you just re-fund-B. They don't do that. No, no, no, no, no, no. So look, I'm at 11 days. I'm sure there's someone listening that can beat 11 days. I'm sure that's nothing for a lot of people. Who can beat Ash's gym donation duration of 11 days?

Who's been donating for longer than that without going? And I'll call your gym and cancel it if that's what you're worried about. Oh, yeah. I'll break up with your gym for you. But what if you have to feel? There's a good friend's episode of that. Very good. What if they're like in friends?

to physically go into the gym. Will you go into the gym for them? I can't be bothered doing that. Yeah, one step too far. Yeah, but I will call. We'll call and get you out. Unless you go to any time, Finnis and Henderson, Henderson. No.

No, I want to know if you can be Ash's gym. It's the best gym ever. You want to know if you can be Ash's gym donation duration. Signed up 11 days ago being how many times? Zero times. And I know a lot of people will be able to be 11 days. So this is really a way for me to make myself feel better. Yeah.

The concern is you've never been at all, though. Never been at once. But here's the thing. Like, you've got a gym membership they haven't been using, but you know, as soon as you cancel, you will definitely never get in shape or whatever the motivation was to sign up initially. You're right.

So you keep thinking, if I keep paying it, I will get in shape one day. You're saying I'm not in shape. There's a shape. Here you go. Your body has a shape. Everybody has a shape, Ash. Maybe you could describe Ash as a shape.

What would it be, Clipper? We need to get to Caitlin. She's busy. and she starts working at 8 o'clock. Good morning, Caitlin. Sorry, I'm making wait so long, Caitlin. Good morning. What shape are you?

Good morning, guys. How long have you been donating to your gym, Caitlin? Well, this is when I was back at school, but I, I, um, went for, I paid for two years. It went once, and they, um, they chased me for ages, and I just, like, go sit in until they stopped. They chased you to come in for a workout. Like, we haven't seen you. We haven't seen. Oh, good on them, though, I guess.

They were trying to get you to. use the facilities because you're praying for them. Yeah. One of the PTs at Jets has been texting me and I blocked this number. Oh my God,

you've only just started there. He's like, it's been 10 days. I messaged you twice. God, I thought you wanted to be here. I can't throw stones because the last time I went into my gym set foot and it was a couple of weeks ago and it was because I was busting for the bathroom

and I was in the mall where it's at and I was like, I'll just go and use the facilities there. Didn't use it one. It's an expensive wee. All right, Jamie, good morning. Morning. Okay, you're doubling your husband, and how long has he been donating to the gym for?

Since September 23, 23. Oh, so two years, two years. What? And he's never been in that two-year window? He's been about four times. Wow. When he does go, does he make a big deal out of it and come home and show you his muscles?

Oh, he's musseling already, but he's got a very physically challenging job, so he's retired. say the gym is much Why is he going to the gym If he's already musly Leave it for the rest of us Dongy people

Get off the machines mate Man Okay Some people just have those bodies though right Where they're just musly Like I've got a friend Michael was the name I reckon he came out of the womb

With muscles It pisses me off Basically doesn't need to do anything I've got a lot of salmon and tong and friends like that Yeah It's genetically just Just gifted

Sarah you're donating as well To your gym I was I was, yeah, I eventually cancelled it. What made you stop? What made me stop paying? Well, made you stop paying, I guess. What was the moment where you're like, this is too much?

I got pregnant with twins. But I got a really good sign-up deal, and I didn't want to pay the extra cost if I cancelled it and then re-signed later. So I was like, it's fine, I'll just keep paying. Because I'm going to go back really soon, And then after about three years, I was like, okay, I'm never going back. So, yeah, I can't. I donated a lot of money at that time.

And I think that's the common three coming through, all the texts coming through saying people are still paying their fee because they don't want to do the cancellation fee, which is even more. Yeah, someone just texts and said it was a $300 cancellation fee. Yeah. So it's like, really, in the long run, you're going to pay more than $300. But it's the $300 at the one time that hurts with most people's budget. Yeah, that's where I think the really cheap gyms, like per week,

that's where they'll get you in the fine print. So you go, oh my God, they're way cheaper per week, but it's like, yeah, but to get out of it, it might be. You know, I signed up a month to month. We've also got people texting insane. Oh, good, just as well. You literally knew you were never going to use it. No, I just, I just, yeah, yeah, I did.

You're bag on there, Clint. So wait, I'm going to beat around the bush there. Is it true? Your husband cancelled his gym membership? of the week you see yours up? Yes, but his was one of those fancy gyms. Oh, with the sauna and the pool

and everything else? No, no, I don't mean that kind of fancy. I mean, like, the ones where you, like, have hardcore training in small groups and, like, it was like 10 times of price. Yeah, yeah. I've got, like, a sauna and stuff in there. Probably, I wouldn't know. I've never been, obviously. Stop rubbing it in, do you? You know that guy that you blocked on your phone? Give me his number.

I'll call and cancel today. I'll be like, hi, it's that. No, no, no, I'm going to go to the guys. Guys, guys, guys, guys, guys, guys, guys. I'm going to go today. I'm going to go. What is that? It's a nose growing. I'm going to go.

I'm going to go. Okay. Today I'm going to, and don't rock up there. I don't know if I've said, I haven't said the area. Don't be a weirdo. Rock up at the gym. Okay. We'll scout out, Dan.

We'll stand out and scout the gym, see if we see it. Clint, Megan, Dan. Win $10,000 right now with the H-10K-E-E money. All right, you're chance to win $10,000 if you can give us 10 answers. Starting with the letter Ash gives you between E and Z, hence easy money. If you need to pass, do it quickly and we'll come back if we've got time, but no repeated answers. Tanya's on the line from Hamilton. She'd put the 10K towards her husband's ass.

What? That's what it says. That's what it says right here. So you've got to get his hemorrhoids fixed, Tiana. What's going on? Not quite hemorrhoids. He has, I guess, what you call him an infected tailbone. So it's like a 10-K surgery.

Oh, I know. So I know. But we have medical cover, so we'd just be paying a two-and-a-half-grant excess. Oh, okay. She's still, two and a half-grand. That's a lot of money down lying around, Tiana, for an ass. Yeah, okay, let's get that fixed. Yeah, I know.

Okay. Well, your letter today sounds hard, but often we find that with these funny letters, it's actually easier, if you know what I mean, Tiana. Yeah. So your letter today is cute. Q. Okay. Ready to go, my love?

Good luck. Do it for the ass. Yep. Okay, beginning with Q. Can I please have a country? Um, Qatar. A food. A tinawa.

A job. Um, the queen. A brand. Um, quicksilver. A musical artist. Um, oh gosh. Um, um. Queens?

Oh, if it's a repeated answer, I can have another one? Um, oh shit. You can pass. I'll pass, yeah. Oh, my goodness me. The job, queen, and then the musical band queen. I didn't think of Queen for a job. We had Quantity surveyor, quiz master, quarantine officer.

Oh, yeah. That bottom is going to be infected for a little bit longer, unfortunately. Well, hopefully, no. Just because you lost easy money, don't cancel the booking. I think it's still probably quite pressing. And we hope this surgery goes really well, Tiana, and he recovers well. And we love you. And thank you.

And thank you for listening. Cool. Thanks, guys. Welcome, man. Poor bugger as well, because you know the room is going to go around their husband's head ass surgery. So everyone's going to be checking out his butt being like, damn.

Or being like, wow, I heard he got a $10,000 butt lift, but I don't really see much difference. No, it's the same to me. My cousin got an infected, ingrown hair on that area after a Brazilian. and it was real bad. Oh my God, really? Yeah, that's real bad. That would hurt.

Clint, Megan, Dan. Sick of endless swiping and wasting your weekends, trying to meet your forever person. Yes, I am. I can't do it anymore. My finger hurts. Well, a lot of women answered the call and said yes. B was one of those people, and she's put a hand up and now finds herself in the Edge Studio

with, I think, not a complete idea of why we've got you in here. Morning, B. I'm just here for the plot. I'm very curious. I love that. I run out of options. I can say this because I'm the girl in the room. You are insanely beautiful.

Like, you're a 10 out of 10 and I feel nervous being in your presence. So I don't know what you're supposed to say to that, but I guess well done on being a hottie. I did wash my hair for this. Okay, you can tell. You can tell. It's beautiful, luscious.

Now, what's got you to this point? Explain to us, I guess, what your journey has been up to this point. Do you want to open that door? Yeah. I put it out to be bare. I don't know. It's just quite frustrated.

like the whole like way dating changed in the past like years I'm just not very good at it I feel like I'm too old school and like watch too many Hugh Grant movies for like Julie Roberts and stuff and this is just not enough Yeah we just mentioned shit

That's Dan's favourite movie Oh my God Notting Hill He's married though He's married now I know But Notting Hill is my favourite movie And you're right If you're comparing anyone to Hugh Grant

It is very difficult So the apps I mean everyone will often say Oh what about the apps What about the apps Are we done with them? No more tender You know what I'm always

done with them and then I get bored and like re-download it after like three months of celibacy and stuff but then I finish it within like within like three days when I swiped like no on everyone and then I'm just like I'd rather be single than like with the type of people who send me the like what's your longest relationship I feel like the longest one in general was five years okay oh that's a good time but that was before kind of the dating apps then I got you met them in real life which I've been on like on and oh for like I don't know seven years maybe and what's the most frustrating thing about dating in 2025 and trying to meet the one.

I think it's kind of like the fake illusion of people or like maybe men even more than women that they have like never ending like choice so even if you like find somebody you click with and they met you in the app I feel like they keep swiping and looking for something even better even if it's good. So I feel like in past maybe you would have worked

on what you already found you know and like explore that and now people just don't give it a time because everything is such like an instance yes. They're not scraed as many of the same like dopamine hunts. Yeah it's just I don't know. If we're in Love Island we'd be asking right now what your type on paper was you know what I used to live in Dublin for a year

and I feel like my regular type is like a typical Irish guy I don't know I've kind of found out when I was there like kind of pale face like freckles dimples boyish look but we haven't got the same type but yeah I kind of sort of like date younger men I don't know if it's like a pizza pan complex or something or maybe just because I don't look my age so I feel like men my age kind of like look older than they are and how old are you if you don't mind me asking 33 which I don't want to talk about you

I don't look 33. I don't act. That's young. 33's younger. Very young. Absolutely. But do you feel like you are at a point in life while you're done with having fun

and you want to meet the one or at least have a grown-up relationship? I mean, I feel like you can meet the one to have the fun with them, right? True. It's so true. You're kind of on the combination of both. But I hear that you're a little frustrated

by the Kiwi boys since moving here. I am. But if I say that, they're not going to call me. Okay, but what is the thing that frustrates you about them because maybe they're not all over. I feel like it's the nonchalantness, which is kind of just feels like masked laziness and like lack of efforts. The vibe is too chill.

Yeah. Yeah, like I feel like being from Europe, even like having lived in different countries within Europe and Iceland as well even, it's just men kind of tend to put more effort in or be like more obvious if they like you. And here it's just like, you know, it's chill. Yeah, okay. They text you every five days, maybe they're like schedule a date in like a month time. And I'm like, no, it's just no.

We're going to let you know what the idea is and then, because it sounds like you're half in, but it's hard to agree and sign up to something if you aren't given all the facts. We're going to tell you exactly what we want to do with you to help you and then you can agree to it. Or we high five and we say, it was nice to meet you and you go back about your life.

We're not going to find anyone hotter than you to do this. Not that it matters. Not that it matters, but it kind of matters. We'll be agreed to our crazy idea next. It is the Edge, Clint, Megan, Dan with Ash, and we have B joining us in studio who, if you have just tuned in, has agreed to come into studio

so that we can help with her dating love life, although she's not entirely sure what it is that we've got in store for you. You are a self-described, adorably spoiled attention seeker. That was when I was a kid though. Yeah, the question was

what were you like as a child? Yes, oh my God. The brief and script probably. No, I'm still a bright. I'm still a bright. I don't think we quite ask you this question. before but like if you do meet the right person like today tomorrow whenever are you ready to settle down i think so i've been traumatized enough i'm ready for the peaceful kind of healthy love i hope nice okay i can't wait babe okay let's see if we can find you it okay well you were saying that you

just kiwi guys are too vague and you just want to cut all the BS and just stop wasting your time the idea is this date to the point the ultimate dating shortcut Date to the point. Bea, we're going to give you the opportunity this week to meet some eligible bachelors and you are going to be able to throw very direct questions at these guys. Ones that I imagine on a first date,

you would be desperate to know but would never ask because you don't want to come across too crazy. And you can just get straight to the point with dating, date to the point, and we'll get these guys in and you just get to grill them. Ask them all the things you've desperately wanted to know and if they don't give the answer that you're looking for, see you later.

We move on to the next. Sounds good. I'm looking to smile at them. I'm ready to dramatize that. Come on. No vagueness allowed. Okay, so what comes to mind, because we're going to meet your first guy tomorrow, what comes to mind in terms of you're on a first date and you go,

man, I really would love to know this, but you've never asked before because, you know, you sort of think it's a date five sort of question. I think I want to just, like, to keep, like, small talk of what you do. I think trauma, I want to know what trauma is how is them. Or they learn from, like, a past relationship and what that, for them about them being as a person. I like that. Oh, I like that.

Yeah, that's kind of like, you know, what was the lesson or they want to change, like, based upon that. That's a great question But you're not allowed to ask about past relationship You can't be like Especially on the first day I do love that as a question though What is your current relationship

With your last ex? Because then they have to talk about the relationship Why it ended And I guess if they're a really nice person That still has some sort of a rapport But you also don't want probably someone That's hanging out with their ex-girlfriend Every second weekend

But there's so many options You could ask about money You could like literally ask them How much money they've got in their account Yeah You know What they believe about a God Yeah

Religion That might be important actually I don't care that much about the money though That's a good thing That's good That's my first question What's your relationship with your mum You know that sort of stuff

That's actually pretty like telling I think Like a relationship to your mum It is Well like when was the last time he called your mum That's a bit of a curveball I hope nobody asked me that Yeah

She's called me every day For the past three years It's fine I love my mum Alright well you ready to do this He's ready to get date to the point I think so Come on baby girl Okay well you have 24 hours

is to come up with as many crazy questions as you can possibly think of that you've always wanted to know about your first date. You only get to ask tomorrow's guy five. And then you'll meet Wednesday's guy and you can ask him another five. So you can be as ruthless as you like and then I guess if you like their answers,

we'll keep them on. And hopefully by the end of the week you will have found your guy. I'll at least one guy that you're like, yeah, I've got a day with you. There's enough there for me to give this a bit of a nudge. And the cool thing about this as well is you've got all the power.

Like you have all the power here. I do like the parvo. Yeah. Nice. Okay, B, well, we look forward to catching up with you again tomorrow. Date to the point. She is in, guys, if you want to get around this,

Maybe you've got a cousin, a friend, your best mate, who you can't date, are hot again, very good. They don't need to be married. They don't need to be rich, she said,

Well of God I guess I have, yes It's Hmm Yes he is It's for a big underwear brand Yes he has A similar brand that Robert Irwin

Works for Oh Is Dan the real Robert Irwin of New Zealand, ladies? Well, spoiler alert, no. We just had B-in for Date to the Point. We're getting a lot of ticks through from people nominating their mates. Like dudes nominating their co-worker saying he's a 28-year-old helicopter pilot.

Pretty sexy bloke. And that's from another guy, right? That's from his dude mate. Yeah. And another one saying, I'd like to nominate my mate, Max. He's an absolute stallion. Oh, there you go. You can't turn down a stallion, surely.

I have plenty of guys lining up. Speaking of stallions Yeah, I was wondering how we're going to segue Thank you, Dan. Dan is trying to become the Robert Irwin of New Zealand after, remember that photo shoot Robert Irwin did where he just, like, stopped the internet

around the world in jockeys, was it? Yeah, yeah, and he had a snake around his neck. Was it jockeys or bonds? Maybe it was bonds, I don't know, it was an underwear brand. Dad wasn't looking at the bands. No, I wasn't looking at it. But, and when I say that I'm looking to be like Robert,

I've been asked by an underwear brand. They wanted me. I didn't go begging. I heard it was because the Robert thing was so big that they were like looking around. No, I mean like the vibe. I think he had a cup. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, as if.

He definitely did. The company was stalking the media landscape for similar people to get like a 2.0. Do you have gone near a crocodile? Dan, do you have a big snake around your name? in the photos? No at all. There's no snake features

in my shoot whatsoever. Nothing even that resembles a snake to be honest. No big snakes. Yeah. But you know, I was asked to represent this brand. No, begged.

I heard that was begging. Yeah, well. Because you said no, five times. Yeah. And on the sixth time you finally ruined. Well, I did say, I said so that came to me and they said we'd love for you to do a little thing

on your Instagram. Yeah. And you said, I can only do a big thing. So if you want a little thing, You got the wrong guy. And I went back and I said, look, usually I don't do this sort of thing because I don't want to get my kid off. I don't think anybody really wants to see that.

And they agreed if I wore a singlet or some sort of rash shirt. You can't do a rash shirt. Yeah, you can't. You can't. And so, Ash, I'm going to show you. It comes out, the video comes out tonight. Oh my God, you get to see it before New Zealand? I'm going to show you just some exclusive.

Some exclusive pre-shots, okay? I'm nervous for my reaction, though, because my face will say it all. Just be, give me a natural reaction, okay? I'm just going to scroll through. I will say this, that these weren't taken by a professional photographer. Who took them? Doesn't matter who took them. Who took the photos, Dan?

Our web girl Bella. Well, our 24-year-old female producer, you made to take photos of you and your bosses. Slightly traumatic. I paid her. Oh my God, I think it's worse. Me and Dan alone up in Rover A with him and his head off. You did it at the workplace. I said, bring no one else just you and me and I'll pay you 50 bucks.

And I can see on paper that sounds bad. Terrible. It's getting worse by the second. Okay, let's see the photos. Just to keep in mind that she's not a professional photographer. I'm just, wait, wait. I'm imagining you and Bella alone in a studio while you're in your, I need to say that I had to, yeah

so you can just scroll scroll to the room Okay, okay, okay It's getting hot on you Oh, oh Yes Yeah Don't start too many

Yeah Okay, baby Everyone's running in Oh the producers Oh, yes Yeah Oh, okay Oh, all the girls are coming up

Hey, don't you come in ballet She's swimming in on me She's super big There's some nice Nice, um... Now, I will say that there was a little bit of photoshopping. You can guess where the photoshopping... The part that I zoomed in on, perhaps.

Dan, I think a lot of people around this fair nation are going to see that photo tonight and go, I didn't know he had it in him. Yeah. I knew that Adobe Photoshop allowed you to enlarge that part of your body. Give yourself some credit. I hope you shout out Capcut and the caption. Thanks, Capcut, for the helping hand.

I did a lot of him. be lifting. I just, I can't get over it. I'm looking at the photo now, imagining you alone in a room with Bella while taking those photos and I want to, that's so changed. She talked about 70 photos and there's four good ones.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, that's normal for a photo shoot even if you haven't got your kid off. Anyway. Okay, well, we look forward to that dropping on Dan Webby's Instagram 6pm tonight. Give them some love. Again, let's do, no, don't give you too much love.

No, give him some love. Chat again about this tomorrow when we've had like New Zealand have seen it. and let's get some reviews. Oh, people are texting through saying Shut up, Hayden. Does our parent company, don't we own some billboards around? Yeah, there's no way I'm appearing on a billboard.

Let me just say that out loud straight right now. They've got to pay for it. They've got to pay. Show me the money. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Congratulations to the Christchurch person or couple that ended up winning First Division with Powerball, $20 million richer this morning.

Oh, yeah. If one of your close friends starts driving around in a Lamborghini, you know it's them. And also, there is still a quarter of a million dollars to be claimed for the person that picked up a lotto ticket in Mount Eden, Auckland at the Woolworths. That's my local Woolworth! It's you! It's not me. Actually, if you did buy a ticket there and you haven't checked it yet, wouldn't that be fun if we could all live check it together before nine? Yes. Yeah, call us and then go into the lotto shop.

Yeah, that's exciting. When do you get lotot tickets, I don't... So at the customer service desk at the front where you can get cigarettes. can you also get lottery tickets there? Yeah. Otherwise, a lot of people just do it online now. But if you physically buy it in store

and that's how they can kind of... That's where Meg gets hers. She gets a cigarettes and a lotto ticket every week. Yeah, yeah. But lately she hasn't been buying the lotto ticket because of the gambling and trying to save money with children. And the pregnancy.

But also it's not fun when you get it online because then they just email you if you've won. Yeah. And I don't like that. I want to like sit there and check the numbers off the thing, you know. Hey, five astronauts. Oh, sorry, two astronauts

that spent five months in space have touched down. I can't help but think the chick who's actually doing the commentary. It's like her ex-boyfriend or something was one of the astronauts because she doesn't seem really pumped about them being back. And we did just hear that confirmation of

Splashdown and there is that live look of Dragon Endurance as it sits on top of the ocean off the coast of San Diego California. Dragon. She's the best. She's they were dating when he went into space. She's met someone else. And part of

of her was hoping maybe you'll die in space and I won't have to break up with him. Now she's like, oh God, he's coming back and I've already moved on. He could have met someone up there though, you know. Like you're spending five months in this close proximity with other people. But you're so dirty.

You're really seeing each other at you. They're worst. Seeing each other poop into a bag? I don't think you watch while they do it. There's like a petition thing. The Space Station isn't a massive three bedroom home, Dan. Yeah, I don't think they're just going,

I can just go and peel in the bag over there. Don't look. Yeah, but you know that pooping in the bag and you know they are because you did it like four hours ago and you're like yeah you're doing the bag thing surely because of the gravity and the oxygen and stuff the air filtration in there would have to be like

amazing because they would stank yeah you're ash has like an air purifier that she runs here in the studio imagine in the space station can't open a door I don't think you can smell in space there's no smell do you reckon no yeah I don't think

there is like you could do the most are you just making it up though Kyla Do a certain degree I reckon have you opened up one of the poop bags And that was you Oh yeah

That's a good practice He can't smell it He's his bag And the poop would float out Ash comes out Oh you guys Stop playing with my bags Georgia's not cool

He's just floating poop All around But you can't smell it It's fine It's fine Eat it you can't taste Oh stop it You're so immature.

I couldn't be and raped for them for five months. I'd kill him. I'd kill him. I didn't know. He strangled to death somehow. Maybe it was the oxygen and stuff. Hey, Clint, open that door over there. You can be way easier outside.

If you had to choose one person on the team to go to be stuck in space with for five months, who would you choose? With them or just on their own? You and that person. Oh, send someone to space on their own. He's going to say, we'll send Dan. I don't know. You're with them.

Who would you choose? Oh, Clint's pick me. A picnic part. In your bag. Turns out the two things that they said that they have been frothing for and have been looking forward to the entire journey home after five months in space.

Yeah. Is it burger? Okay. And a hot shower. Which then reminded me they don't shower, obviously, in space. I think they can sponge themselves. Like wet wipe.

They're like wet wipe shower for five months. That is disgusting. If you were a woman, you'd have to, like, go on medication to not menstruate. I think they have to, yeah. I think that's one of the things they have to do. Oh, shut up. You don't know, damn. He just talks as if he's a professional.

Stop saying stuff. They don't have bins up there. I don't think. Just like, if someone come from the company, like up to space, to clean out the period bins? They're a van. Hey, Jeff. How's it going, mate?

Thanks for that. See you in four more months. Thanks, guys. Okay. What is the longest time you have gone without showering? Because I think there are some instances where you get a pass. Astronaut, pass. Camping?

Camping, I don't know. You can't have a shower. You can take solar showers? Oh, like, if you're like... No, I don't think I give you a pass if you've gone a week without showering if you're camping. That's fine. So you can wash in a stream. Yeah, that counts, I reckon.

Okay, you let us know why you went... X amount of... Very long time without a shower and we'll let you know whether we go. Yeah, that's pass. Or not a pass for you. Comer. I was in a coma.

In which case, that's an excuse. Were you in a coma? No, I wasn't. Stop, speaking! The astronauts have landed back on Earth after five months in space, which means five months without a shower, which is one of the two things

they were looking forward to the most hot shower and burgers. And burger is really what, like when you're hungry, when you get to the level of like starving, for me, it is a burger. Yeah, if you're eating dehydrated stuff out of a bag. Imagine. And I remember seeing footage of a female astronaut washing her hair in space. And because the water droplets stay as big droplets and just kind of float,

you have to do it with this like squeezy bottle. And she puts like straight onto the scalp. It was all very complicated. Trying to catch the bubbles and push them in your head. Stuff you don't think about it when you're layman like us. Isn't it crazy that we can land on the moon? We can do all the stuff. Can we?

We can't shower in space. It seems like a simple act, but you can't do it. Well, we'd love to know how long did you go without a shower. These astronauts are obviously five months. And that's disgusting. But then there are sometimes you'll give people a pass because you're like, well, yeah, you're in space. So Ashley, your partner broke his leg during a football game, and it was in the 80th minute, so he would have been all sweaty. Yeah, I wasn't actually there either.

I was like six hours away. Right. Okay, so he went to hospital. Then what happened? Um, so he went to Middlemore, and, um, yeah, his surgery just kept getting pushed back. And he stunk, like, eyes burning stunk. So it was not very nice. How many, so what are he?

How many hours, days? I think he spent, like, three days in the hospital up there. And then on the third day he got surgery, and then he spent like another day or two up there and didn't get to come home after like the first day, I think he came back. So almost a week and he smelt like an onion. Five days without shower right after the back of an hour and a half of a strenuous exercise. I remember picking my brother up from footy just after training and he's in the back seat and I'll have to have the window down.

But that's like five days and you've been in a hospital bed. Yuck. I mean, I guess you've got to give him a pass because they kept pushing your surgery. He gets a pass. He broke his leg. Gareth. How long did you go without a shower? Just under two weeks.

Two. That's mingin. Okay. You tell us why. and we'll decide if you get a pass or not. All right, so I was doing some photography in Mount Cook and down the Queensland. And with the temperature being so cold,

there was just really no time to do showering. So, yeah, two weeks in Mount Cook. Were you, like, tramping? Did you have, where were you sleeping? Yeah, we're sleeping in the base of Mount Cook and around the mountain and stuff like that. So there wasn't really any place to shower. Can I ask you a personal question?

Did you change your undies? Yes. Okay. Did you wet wipe? Two points? That's a no. That's a no. We should get care of the past.

No, I don't know. He's like, we're not sweating. It's so cold here. Might probably be the same, though. I hate getting my clothes off to have a shower. And he would be getting his clothes off to have a cold shower. Cold shower. That'd suck.

No, you think it'd be hard to get people to call to admit. long they've been without a shower. Not for Donna. This is the first time she's ever called us. Oh, the first time. First time calling, she's Domino's out for being filthy. Hi. Okay, so you're trying to be two weeks without a shower.

What's your record? Three. Three weeks. Ooi, oy. Now, you sound like a classy woman, Donna, so I know you've got a good excuse. What happened? Crush your earthquakes. Yeah.

She gets a pass. Yeah. I don't know it. A couple of texts have come through about that, Donna. So, yeah. What did you do? Yeah, wet wipes and dry shampoo. Oh, yeah.

Fair enough. What was that first shower? Like, what was it? Was it scorching long? Yeah, bliss. Bliss. Sit in there, just let it rain on me. Yeah, just sit on the floor.

Like 20 minutes. It's got in a long way, don't know. Hey, Donna, I'm going to saw you out with a double pass to a must-see movie. It's not on cinemas until Thursday, so you'll be one of the first to see it. A provocative new satirical thriller. Listen to the line up. Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascow, Austin Butler, and Emma Stone. I think I could survive thanks.

You can survive three weeks without a shower after that horrible, horrible earthquake. I think he can survive anything, Donna. Good on you, darling. Thanks for calling. That'll be a fun night out. Have a shower before you go. Yeah. Because you can now.

World day. World day with lots of deodorant. Yes. Good. She's like mask that stench. I went to a festival. I just remember this in the Philippines where you run around with paint

and you throw paint to people for like 24 hours. A paint festival they call it. Yeah, I don't know. It's like, yeah, but we were covered head to toe in paint. And then, they're developing nations still. We get back to our hotel. Sheet, like, no water in the whole city. Brilliant.

So we have cake. on paint and sweat and dirt. Disgusting. And we had to go down to the 7-11. There was like hardly any bottles of water left. It went two days. It was... Oh, no pass.

Fowl. No-par. Yeah, but it was my fault. What was I supposed to do? Well, Donna had an earthquake. You just had a bit of a paint fright. Holy shit. You made it the whole way through.
