This is a podcast from Rover. Some podcast educate, some inspire. We do neither. Welcome to the most unnecessary thing you'll listen to today. This is the Clint Meg and Dan podcast. It is back in the best way. Make sure your 2026 is kept on. Here's Clint Meg and Dan.

Here we are Friday. Good morning. Good morning, good morning. We made it. We made it Friday. Yes. Hopefully today's a lucky day. at seven o'clock this morning. God, the boss of sphincter would have been tight yesterday.

Was it Graydon? He got nine. He got to the tenth question. We just ran out of time to answer it. How much do you think our boss likes us talking about his sphincter? Nearly daily. I think our sphincter boss chat is quite high. I try to keep my boss of sphincter chat

before seven. Right. Because you're the one that keeps bringing it up with it. You know a lot about it. You know a lot about it. You get away with a lot before 6.30 as well. Also, this might be exciting to you. finally get to see our paintings, mine and Clint's paintings, they're going live on auction today.

I think you're going to see Meg's and you're going to go, wow, why is she in radio? She's wasted. The more conversations I had yesterday and the more I looked at the artwork, I'm going to be, honest to God, pretty disappointed and like what the hell happened if I lose?

Oh God, I wish I had your confidence. Like, I'm genuinely going to be like, how did that happen? I was listening to Cal Show, day show, yesterday, and he was talking to Clint, and Clint said, I expect it to go for around $3 to $400. It literally looks like shit.

Do you know, somebody said to me, they go, oh, wow, Meg's really talented. She is. If I had to hang, you know, but I'd much prefer to hang yours in my house. And then they said, but if you tell Meg that, I'll kill you. And I started to sense there's this underbelly of like,

everyone likes mine, but no wants to say that. That sounds like a thing a murderer would say, and that would fit in a murderer's house. And I started to puff my chest and I was like, I got this. Clint, you don't have this. Seven o'clock, you'll see them on Tray Mead. Clint, Megan Dan.

Oh, my gosh. Time for your 6am throwback. It needs to be a goodie on a Friday, send us into the weekend. Us versus the playlist. Currently, the playlist is throwing up Sugar Bay. You like this song. This is kind of there, though, isn't it? You know some songs that's just there?

Well, I have one I can bring to the floor today. In 2013 on this day, Bruno Mars announced his Jungle World Tour, which is the tour that me and Dan got to see and it was epic and we didn't realize how amazing he was until we saw it. Maybe a finesse. I mean, I knew he was amazing

but I think in terms of just incredible vocal talent that blew me away. Like he was a great dancer. Obviously the production was great, but his vocal was incredible. I think he was going to that as well. Was he the only time he's been here? Sparkorina.

I think so. Yeah, because my wife's cousin had tickets and somebody couldn't go and so I went along with him, like took him and because he was a bit younger. And I was like, yeah, okay, sure. I guess I'll babysit him out of Brunumice. And it was phenomenal.

It was so good. Miguel open for him. He's got so many bangers as well. Do we have finesse? Yeah, I'm having a look. My favorite song from him is Versace on the floor. Oh, yeah. Such a sexy song.

Yeah, I've got your Vazchi here. God, he's good. Yeah. Finesse, does he feature on Finesse? It was Cardi B. Feneas. It might be her song. That might be out. And then

here it is, here it is. Gotcha. Let's see it was better than dance. Isn't, oh no, that's not true. Yeah, he did the one you said with Rose A but then also Lady Gaga Die with the smile was pretty big. He's just not doing stuff

like we've just started playing. He doesn't feel like he's been doing stuff like that lately. What do you want to pick out of all these? The other option is also it's Rihanna's birthday today. Oh, I see. 1988 she was born which makes her

36 isn't it? No, 1988 Oh yeah, 98, yeah, a couple of years old on me Yeah, 37, yeah No, 38 38 Got it

So which one do you like? All right Brita Masque's because I picked it Yeah I don't have a search you on the floor I love that song Okay, we'll do a middle ground Your artist for Dan's song Love it

Cool, sweetest Hit the Jams baby Let's take our time tonight. Oh, no. If you're going to move like that and be doing that with your hips, I'm not playing. Okay, sorry, I'll stop. I'll sit still.

The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. We've both got embarrassing moments that we could possibly talk about here. Would you like to go first? Mine's just quick. I said happy birthday to a guy who's having his birthday today. And then I said, is it a milestone birthday? No, I go, oh, 40 today. He's clearly not 40.

He's older than that. Does this just happen out in the, Yeah, and I was like 40 today? And then he goes, nah. And I go, oh, is it a milestone one though? And he goes, and I go, or like just a run of the mill, that normal birthday. And he goes, just a normal day. And I go, all right, like you didn't want to tell me.

And then I said to the guy who I thought said happy birthday to him, I said, isn't it his birthday today? And he goes, I don't know. Like, you said happy birthday to him, which is why I said happy birthday to him. He goes, I didn't say happy birthday to him. It was not his birthday. So what are you doing? What did you mean? guy happy birthday. He must have said

have a good day and I heard happy birthday. I thought you were going to say 40 today and he said no 35. No, he just thinks I'm a weirder because he was looking at like why do you want to know how old I am? Oh, yuck. He got to stop embarrassing us. He works upstairs anyway. We hardly ever see the upstairs people. He's on a much higher pay grade than you clint of his upstairs.

Wow, he must have been. I went and got ice cream yesterday with my husband which is very nice. My mom is here so she was babysitting or looking after my daughter. Miller. And we were on our way home and I was like, should we start for ice cream first? And I was like, should we stop for ice cream first? And I was like, yes. And the only place, we were driving past a place called Ponsabee, if you don't know, Auckland. Very busy. Very fancy. Very rich area.

Hmm, yes, busy. A lot of retail, expensive retail stores. And we saw a gelato place and I said, pull over and there were no parks. So he went into one of those little five-minute loading zones. So he's like, I'll stay in the car, you just go in, get me something. Don't be long. I was like, right. Okay. Went in there. quite panicked because he didn't give me any sort of details about what kind of ice cream he wanted. I was like, I don't know if he wants to saw that. And they always have about 80 plus flavors in these places.

Exactly, so I'm quite stressed and I get two double scoops. Like, oh, because I'm like, well, there's four options then. Is it one of those places that is like Marmite and feta ice cream and stuff? There were like Sicilian pistachio. Yeah, yeah. And I'm like, I don't know. Just give me hokey pokey. So I got two scoops.

Do you do like a kid's kind of ice cream? I did. Yeah, good, good. I got four different options. And I was like, I've done. that $26 later. Oh my God. I know that was one.

So here I am holding my two ice cream cones. Wow. And I walk out and recently, you guys may or may not have noticed. I've kind of gone for a new clothing style. Today you definitely have. You're looking like sort of receptionist corporate chic today. Okay. Yeah.

I've been wearing a lot of baggy clothes. I'm in like seven months postpartum now. And I'm in a kind of baggy stage, more like streetwear, baggy t-shirts, baggy pants. And I have a few pairs of pants. And it's quite hard to know what your measurements. are these days when your body's changed in postpartum. I haven't worked it out yet. I have a pair of pants.

They're a little baggier than they should be. Around the waist. Yeah, they're around the waist. But I like them baggy because I want to be comfortable. Holding my two ice creams, two scoops here at the side. $26, not dropping these bad boys. Not dropping these bad boys. No, last thing you've got to do is drop them.

I've got it. Now my husband had said when he was in the loading zone, he was quite stressed. And he goes, don't do any of the taste testers. We're in a hurry. We have to get home to pick up my other kid. I was like, okay, so I'm getting stressed. And then I start to like run, like run jog.

Run jog. And I forget I got my phone in my pocket. My phone's kind of heavy. It's a heavy phone down. Big Samsung. It's a big Samsung. So as I start to run, my pants start to... And let's not forget, it's got a wallet in there as well.

Heavy, that's got a lot of cash in it. Especially with a new contract. Yeah, yeah. My pants start to slip it. I'm thinking in my head, I can't drop these ice creams, $26 ice cream. I've just made my husband play before. So I'm running at this point. But for some reason, my bed started to go down towards my knees.

Knees. As soon as I got to my mid-thigh, I would be like, I'd be like, gone. I'll lose one. I'll keep the other, you know, $14 ice cream. I don't know why I did this. is the bit that gets me. I've got to be laughing about it all night. I, for

some reason, thought the best thing to do while running with ice cream in the middle of pot. She's going to use the ice cream as I yelled. My pants are falling down. People like, yeah, we can see that. We can see everything else too.

I don't know why. I think I thought if I thought... So it would help? Also, all you're doing is drawing attention to the embarrassing moment. Look at her. She had the house. Oh my good. Over there. The lady yelling, look at me. Look at her. My pants falling down, everybody.

If you want to have a look. I thought... You'd be able to see it clearly. In my head, yelling, my pants are falling down. I thought that people would see it and realize I know it's happening. So, like, they wouldn't think I wasn't crazy. But then got to the car, husband's just flicking on Facebook. No help at all. No help at all.

Just like, isn't even realizing that I'm out, out the door, pants down to my knees. Spritting my legs. bouncing like she's doing one of those like potato sack races except the sack of her pants by the time she got back to the car no pants on at all

and four melted ice creams yeah I had the ice creams that they were intact nailed it the ice cream keep those wow I mean you don't drop

$26 worth of ice cream you don't just you're not gonna do it you're not gonna do it yeah so you go imagine that how lucky you would have thought he was

he was like geez $14 dollar double scoop and my wife's taking her kid off and the mother-in-law's pull around Hey, how good Clint, Megan Dan Let's go

We've been giving you the chance This week to win a $200 Macca's voucher and a McDonald's Prize pack as well If you can tell us Who said the phrase Rachel or Meg It's not that common

It doesn't happen to every guy And it is a big deal Hi Madison Hi, how are you? Hey, we're good On your way to work Which is a prison Oh, yeah

That's an interesting job What do you do at the prison? I'm one of the officers Oh, good on you Wow That must be an interesting job God love to pick your brain. Yeah.

Okay, well, Madison, very quickly as well, which one do you think? I think we could just quickly get past that and then go back to the present questions, right? Yeah. Yeah, you're good. Yeah. Yeah. Rachel. It's not that common.

It doesn't happen to every guy, and it is a big deal. Such a good line. So great. Yeah. It's all that perfectly by Jennifer Anderson. Well, down, Madison. That is all yours. $200 prize pack, thanks to Maccas.

Thank you so much. You're so welcome. You can get one of six limited edition collectibles with the Friends Mail at McDonald's. What do you actually do in the prison? So I'm a corrections officer, so I work in the units with the prisoners. I work in a male prison.

Wow. I just manage them all day. Really? And how did you get into work like this and how long have you been in it? I've been in about three and a half years. and I had a, my best friend's mum worked in the prison so that's kind of how I thought about getting into it.

Oh yeah, great. And do you, what do you like about your job? Like, is there a reason you keep going back every day? Is there something you actually find inspiring or that you would like doing? It's just different every day. And, I mean, you have days, obviously, when it's bad, but you do have days where, you know, when they want help and you can help them.

and there's actually some kind of change. And I think we're portrayed quite badly in the news sometimes. So it's like good so people know that we actually do make a difference. Yeah. And you get to wear a cool uniform. I've seen the uniforms that correction officers wear it looks cool. Oh, yeah. How many times have you found like an inmate who's like tattooed the entire

blueprints of the prison all over his body so he can use them to escape? It's not like Shawshank Redemption. Oh, I don't think they're that part. That's prison break. And if I was put in prison, Madison, obviously would never be. But if I was, what's the easiest way to escape? Oh, my God.

Honestly, like trying, there's enough wires from, to get over. I had serious questions for Madison. I'm not doing any more Shawshank one. Can you make, do you know how to make prison wine? Oh, for God's sake. It is actually pretty easy. Yeah?

How do you do it? Okay, for anyone who wants to have a drink tonight and they don't have the budget to go and get a few beers? It takes months to ferment. Does it? It actually doesn't take that long. It's just fruit and sugar or some kind of like starter. Like you can use porridge as a yeast and water.

And you just put it in a warm area and cement it. Yeah, but for how it does it take that long. Yeah. Sometimes it's a couple of weeks if you want it just like lightly, otherwise it can take that long. God you know heaps about it. So if I want to make it today, I can't get drunk until like March. Yeah.

Hey, it's a long game, couldn't you're in prison? Unfortunately not, no. I think it stinks too from what I've heard. Well, there goes our time. Thanks, boys. There goes my opportunity to talk to Madison about serious questions. I think we covered that well. And now it's...

Has anybody tried to dig their way out of the prison? Thank you, Madison. With a tiny little fork. Seriously. Yeah. Meg doesn't have any questions like that because she's never seen Shawshank Redemption. Yes, you guys made me watch it.

It's a very good movie. But I don't need to ask Madison about a man. movie from 20 years ago. 30. Anyway, oh well, that was a lovely chat. Any years that rock hammer, not a fork? We've got a scandal coming up next. Speaking of prison.

Yeah, actually. Yeah, speaking of prison. Someone, a big name is going there. Yeah, big story of today. I've got the details coming up. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. We got New Music Friday for you coming up just to pour 7 o'clock this morning and Hillary Duff sounds like she might be the pick of this week.

Yes, yeah, excited to play it for you. And if you got tickets, then you'll be even more excited to hear her new music because I think it can be a bit nerve-wracking going to a concert, hoping they're going to play the bangers. Yeah. Yeah, but just scandal. Look, really good stuff still good too.

All right, Prince Andrew has been arrested due to his involvement with the Epstein Files, which is fantastic news. I hope it is the very, very, very, very, very beginning of many. Many, many, many, many, many. I think, as I said to you this morning, Meg, and Clint as well, I think hopefully this then goes, the powers that be go, okay, who's next?

because we've got him. Who's the next person on the list? Because there's a lot of people on the list. Yeah, it was the 66th birthday when he was arrested in his home and his home is being searched at the moment. There has been a statement from King Charles saying, I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten Windsor

in suspicion of misconduct in public office. What now follows is the full fear and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities. And this, as I've said before, they will have their full and whole-hearted support from us. Let me state clearly, the law must take its course. I guess because it's not like you earn this right to be royal.

Yeah, it's just like you could be a POS and you've just been given a lot of money, a lot of power, and a lot of opportunity to not play by the rules that the rest of us do. Exactly. And I think now that royalty has fallen, you'd think maybe other people that are in places of power can. Take them all. I was just speaking to the boys off the year and we know how all-consuming this has been. For me, I found myself having to take breaks

and get outside after reading some of the stuff, but I still don't think we are all collectively as a world angry enough about what has been unreleased and what still is hidden. But I was saying to the boys that, you know, I've seen people say, well, what if it was your favourite celebrity, what if it was the politicians that you do like? What if it was companies you do like?

Put them all in jail. I don't care. You know, I don't care if it's Phil Collins, Ricky Jervais, anybody just to dry turn, not that it is, none of those people. I'm just like, don't use me a example.

I'm sorry, I'm just saying that, like people that we love. That I love, I don't care, put them all in jail. And Trump's any of that. Absolutely it does. Sorry, turn a phrase there. But yeah, I think people would be kind of like, oh, well, you just, it's because it's Trump, you're and don't

like a republic. No, any of them. Put them all in jail. Put them, like to hold all of them to account. I like to think there's some sort of undercover operation at the moment that is happening where they're trying to get like a watertight case against these guys, and then we'll start seeing a domino effect.

Oh, there definitely is. Of men like that being arrested. Yeah, no, I'd say there is definitely that happening, but they have to, you're right, Clint, get every duck in a row before they push play on it. Just can't give them the opportunity to, like, slip away and then... We can't let it just fade Fizzler out. Because I think that's, I've heard that's a tactic.

They almost overload us with horrible, horrible information, so we kind of go, I don't want to even... I can't look at this anymore. It's so disturbing. And then we kind of want to push it away, but we can't. We've got to, you know, put a torch on it. Yeah.

And in exciting other news coming up next, how do I wrap this up? Oh, I was like, an exciting news. I was like, well, I was just going to let people know they've got 20 minutes before they can play easy money. $10,000. Meg's not very good at wrapping up, like, something that's really serious, hey. Yeah, it's hard. You just make your point and just go bang, and then just look at me. And then you just do finger guns at me, and I know you're done.

That's what I do. I just do a little finger gun at one more time. Double finger guns. Yeah, sometimes I do this. We have to hold everybody accountable. 10,000 bucks up for grabs in 20 minutes with easy money. Gone into the weekend, how bloody good would it be? Not long to wait now.

She's good. Clint Megan Dan. Spinky booze. It's time to get naughty at 640. Guys, sitophilia. It's rising around the world at the moment. If you don't know what sito failure is, it's the enjoyment of using food-based items in the bedroom.

Why do you think I would be involved with that, Dan? Well, here's the thing. This is a UK study that I think maybe it could correlate to New Zealand because the sale of different food items, particularly cucumbers, corgettes and bananas have gone through the roof in the UK because a rise in normal adult toys has gone up that people can't afford them anymore.

So they're going and looking elsewhere. at supermarkets. Lebanese or telegraph cucumbers? I think they've gone the telegraph. Whoa. Yeah. And also other items like whipped cream and chocolate are being used. In fact, whipped cream, the cans, up 599% on the year.

Interesting. It's that interesting. How do you know it's just not more... More cake? Yeah, and like kids enjoying their pancakes. Because I've done a study as well because I've seen the correlation of all these, the uplift and sales of all the... these different items and then they've done another study

alongside this with people and they've going yes we are using them more. I love that we still have like no answers when it comes to peri menopause and studies but we have somebody sat down and goes cucumbers going up let's do we study on that. But be honest, let's just go around the room. I'll put my hand up right now and say

I've never used and maybe I'm the out of the norm here. I've never used a food item in the bedroom. Okay well let's include the producers in the booth as well, producer producer NEPA producer Carl. I'll count done from three. If you have used any of food item in the bedroom put your hand up in three two one okay so i'm out of the norm see everybody put their hand up except neeps and i yeah so what have you used clinton out of interest

he's taking notes now because i think he's used a normal cucumber and now he's going oh maybe i could be using telegraph no telegraph's too small oh god poor jamie poor jamie you can't get small telegraph cucumbers oh we'll just text and say my ex put a carrot up who... Oh my God. We're going to... We're done. We can't open the phones for this.

We don't trust you. No, well, you've ruined it. We've had nurses before talk about things that are pulled from the human body and it's out the gate, the amount of things that people fall on while nude. Can I just say word of caution? Just be careful when you're doing them

because they are breakable, aren't they? We've heard horror stories like Clint'sies. Yeah, a good friend of mine's a physio and she lives with a nurse and she was telling me that she had someone fall off a ladder while painting the house and fell on an item that went up inside them and they were painting naked

which is crazy. Oh, that's very unfortunate. I know. Painting naked on a roof and fell off and landed on an item that went right up there. Devil's advocate. What if that was a real story? I know.

That'd be so frustrating. I've also heard another story of someone that went shopping and they got locked out of their house and had to climb through the top window story of their house so they climbed up fell. Oh, such an unfortunate event. and fell on top of a Wattie's source container. Went through their pants and nothing.

New music Friday's coming up, Neeks. Hillary Dunf is new music. I think she might be the winner of the week, plus Mumford and Sons with Gracie Abrams. Yeah, it's a shame. You just got to tell the truth in this. You've just got to go. You know what?

We both know what I was doing. Yeah. Get it out of there, would you? Yeah, yeah. Let's not ask questions. Come up. Get the tongs. Yeah.

Three oranges. Yeah. The fish and shams on me if you can get it out. I'll provide the sword. Oh, okay, you're banned from the next break. Clint Meg and Dan. New music Friday. Brand new.

10,000 bucks on the line as well, and just over five minutes with easy money. But first, who's dropping your music today? It's a big day today. Meg's got the giggles, sorry. I'm really sorry, I do have the giggles. Lana Del Rey actually did a video. I should have gotten the audio from her, but she was talking about how she decided to put her song out not on New Music Friday.

She was like, now that's when you put it out because that's when you get the promotion, everyone talks about new music. But she put her song out a couple of days ago because she was like, I just wanted to sit by itself. So I don't know if that's what musicians are going to start doing. Because I think we've spoken about that in the past. Why fight everyone on the same day? And that's what she said as well.

She was like, I'm going to be in a big pool of people, but I'm just going to release mine on Wednesday. There's no promotion. Oh, well. It's called White Feather, hawk-tail, deer. Oh, I see why she did it. Yeah. She couldn't decide on the name.

We went with all three. You know exactly how magic you are Whoopsie Daisy you Yelling I love you Out to my white feather I could see why she didn't want any competition Jesus, this cheese has slipped off the cracker My head after stopping

It's almost got like a Latin backing track Mm-hmm She's so right Whoopsie Daisy you Who I imagine you do Oh how absolutely wonderful That's about her husband Yeah isn't he that crocodile hunter guy

Yeah yeah and the whole song is about how amazing he is and lyrics just saying about how incredible sound like this song. Oh, she's come through the window by the window Lana Del Rey. That's weird. Like, because I can sort of see it's got a bit of

Lana Dalry vibe about it. But I don't know if like, she's going to get any new fans from that. Yeah, very true. Very true. I don't know what she's doing there, but she's very proud of it. Good on her. Mumford and Sons have teamed up with Gracie Abrams with Bandlands. Don't book down

It's one of those songs I'd listen to to Put Me to Sleep And in compliment? Yeah, in a compliment I think it's a nice song Yeah, it's good dinner party I'm going to add it to my dinner party playlist Oh yeah, okay, it's nice

She Knows Too Much by Mac Miller, obviously you passed away many years ago but must have had some stuff left on a hard drive And this is with Thundercat It's amazed as me that it takes this long To dig it off a hard drive And put something together

Oh, I really love it Perhaps like he just doesn't care. I don't know what it is. No one sounds like him. It's always sad with artists like Mac Miller who I think saw more success in their career after they passed away and then I forgot to see it when they're alive.

There's a few artists like that. And it must be sad for their families to go, oh shit, I wish he had this when he was alive. And listen to anybody out there as well and listening of late, look how much, you know, success he could have seen and witnessed. And if you're going to go to Hillary Duff and you're a little bit nervous about being one of those

concerts that she's going to be playing new music out. You're like, just play me the old bangers girl. Well, she's got some new stuff too, which is pretty cool. It's called Weather for Tennis. She write her own music. Yes, she does. She does with people, though, not like completely solo. But that is, I honestly, if you play that to me,

I would have guessed Carly Ray Jensen. Could have been off one of her albums. It's cool, I like it. If we're comparing tennis court songs, I think Lord did it better. Dan, I keep telling you, we don't need to compare women. I know, I know, but it's just sometimes you just... They both. Can't help it, eh?

But pardon? I'm joking. Hey, we compare everything on this show. Men, women. No, you're right, it is mainly women. Clint Meg and Dan. The Edge. The Edge is easy money.

A Rihanna song. A type of bird. A seven-letter word. Oh. I'm jays. I don't know. Did you answer what? Something with wheels wheels?

Well, I don't know if that. I just wanted to see if she wanted to keep going. Yeah, Miggs, we'll come back to that one. Someone without legs, whales. Wales, worms, walrus. Oh, yeah. Good on you, Jay. It was a good effort.

Awesome. Well, thank you guys. Thanks, Jay. I'll let you get back to your pen-on-wa. Yeah, maybe do it sober next time. Yeah. Oh, my God, so funny. All right, eight o'clock this morning,

you're times to have a crack at easy money, 10,000 bucks on the line. Also, I'm pretty sure if it's three, past seven. Our auctions will have just gone live. The artwork that Meg and I put together this week. What's the bounce back? Bridges Carl?

The bounce back. Oh, you've dropped out. The bounce back is Art to 33443. They are live on Trade Me. Let the bidding begin. Hey, Art to 33443 if you want to see what I paid versus what Clint paid and buy it. Yeah, and whoever raises the most money wins. Monday morning, 8 o'clock will have the results.

I mean, there's only one obvious winner, to be honest. Now, I'm a little nervous that we keep saying that people are going to think he's the underdog. Remember, I am the underdog in this situation. No, trust me, you'll see the paintings and know which is better. This is the first time I've ever done art. And I smashed it. I have a feeling somehow people are on your team and I don't know how you've wheezzled your way into it, claim random. I'd genuinely be shocked if I lose on Monday.

This is just, honestly. Clint Megan Dan. It's Clint versus Macon. and Dan. Okay, so me and Dan have been challenging Clint because we are the underdogs and everything that a good friend Clint does. He is

talented at everything he tries his hand at always wins everything and being underdogs we want to challenge him at a specialty school so we know what it feels like to beat Clint for just one time in our lives. Dan got to do it a couple of weeks ago. He beat him at Go-Cat racing. I am now searching for that high.

I'm just clambering get that high of what it feels like to beat Clint Randall. I challenged him to an art off. Clint has never done any art in his life. And I have been practicing over the years. You can text Art to 3343. Both pieces of art that Clint and Meg have done are being put up to auction. They are live now. Both auctions art to 3343. I'll say this before we move on. Both paintings already. They've been up for five minutes. Have both met reserve. Well, it's one dollar reserve. Okay.

So you can buy either of these and have them in your homes. These bids. This is the first time you've been able to see them all week. Art to 3343. I actually showed my mum both of our pieces of art yesterday. So she only just got to see it before anybody else did. So it showed her last night. And I secretly recorded her.

This is what she thinks about your painting without knowing that she was being recorded. Okay. I have to say it's not too bad. See what I mean? It's different. They're very different. They're very different. What's he going to say? It looks like a volcano to me. It's better than I thought.

I know. How does he do it? You can see it on a wall somewhere and it's got the darts like glued in. Those are darts. Oh, that's kind of ruined it. If you want to buy it, you can just pull the darts out. It's up dead. You're all. I agree. The darts do ruin it for me as well. It gives it depth.

In fact, at 8 o'clock, Meg and I are going to be. be able to explain how our painting depicted beauty, which was the challenge. Which was the challenge? This is what she said about mine. She also sent me a message about it, but... Let me see you're one. Twilight at the lake. It's beautiful.

I know. That water is incredible. It reminds me of Lake Talpo. It reminds me of Lake Talpo. Just a little note, she sent me to say, how proud of you of I am of producing that painting, Meg. It's amazing. All the work you've done over the years have paid off. I love you.

And I'm proud of you as well, Meg. Obviously, I'm Team Meg here. I didn't actually, because I was like, oh man, I never do art. I've never created really art before. And then after I did it, I was like, I should do this more. This is the confidence of the man. Honestly. What was they doing with all whispers.

It felt like yesterday around the office, people didn't really want to say what they truly thought because they know they should be supporting Meg in it. There are a lot of people really interested in my painting. I don't think there is. I mean, my mum, especially. Oh, yeah. I'm looking. She said, that's awesome. I love it. And then she said to me, I'd say the bidding will get out of control. Well, the interest in both these paintings is incredible. If you want to see them, text, Art, A-R-T-343, the texts that are coming in right now are going through the roof.

I've never seen so many texts of people wanting to see this. Also, I'm looking at the options now. You guys are not allowed to look, but I can. Give us an update, give us a live update and then after the show today, Meg and I promise we won't look at the auctions and we'll find out. I'll give you an update now. As of right now, the auctions have been up for 11 minutes. They went up at 7 a.m.

Clint, the current bid on your painting is $51. What? It's already got 10 bids. So there's a battle going on right now for Clint's. Meg, yours has been up for 11 minutes and currently the leading bid and there's only been four bids on Meg's.

Oh, God. $81. Don't forget, I'm the underdog. I don't want people feeling sorry for this man. No, Meg's actually seven hours. How is she the underdog here? Oh, God, this is good. That's already a fever pitch.

I wait under the edge of you. Text the word art. Have you seen her? What do you think? Who's got the chance to raise the most money come Monday morning, do you think? There's paintings right now online. Trade me.

You can text Art to 3343. Meg has done one, Clint has done one, it's a competition. Can I give you a quick, one more update? And this is the last one. I'm not going to tell you who. Okay. But one of the paintings has just cracked $200. Clint's had expected $3 to $400 for his.

I'm just blown away if you want to see our art to 33-4-3. We had a text in as well saying who does the money go to? Of course we're not seeing a cent of the money. We will be on Monday when the final amount is tallied up, giving all of the money every single cent of it a way to cause or somebody who needs it there's, yeah, yeah, so it's not going

to our pockets. It's the Daniel Webby Foundation as a show we might be able to collectively find out who's most deserving and we'll give it all away. So who painted it better? Now can we say yeah, so we're not going to me and Clint getting no more updates until Monday until Monday you're not allowed to look at the auctions.

I think we can still get updates during the show, can we? At 8 o'clock we're get to explain how our painting portray beauty. So it'd be good to see how it goes this morning and then we have to just let it go. I'll give you another update at 8 and then that's it. Okay. All right, deal.

All right, let's go to Hayden. Hayden, Ellen, one of our favorite listeners of the show, good morning. Kolda. Morning. You've seen both pieces of art, thoughts and feelings. Yeah, yeah, no, they're both beautiful. Clints reminds me of the Metallica album, Lode,

if you know, you know. And Megan's reminds me of, beautiful Lake Pukaki in South Canterbury there. Lake Pukaki. Yeah. And if you... What? I've never been there, but no thanks, but...

There are not enough annual leave days in the calendar for me to want to go there. Maybe you, me and producer Carl could go one day. No. I'm actually going to quickly, if you can't see... If you're like driving and you're like sitting there going, I still can't see what you guys are talking about because I can't text it in, I have drawn a lake at evening time. Like, yeah.

We go for a dip. I've done a lake at evening time, and we'll describe them more. But yeah, mine is a picture of a lake. Clint, yours is a canvas of... The beauty. It's black and red and white. I filled up balloons.

You already as, Clint's could be Lake Bukakis. I filled up balloons with paint, and then through darts of them, and it exploded all over the canvas. Yeah. In just this, like, really artistic way. If you do want to see them, Art to 33443. Thanks for that.

Hey. the large campus. You're going to have to have big walls if you want to put my art up in your house. Should we go to Renee? Because she's got an opinion as well. Hi, Renee. Hi, yes, I have an opinion. Yes, of course you do. What do you thoughts?

Meg, I think yours is lovely. I love a scenery painting. Yes, very beautiful. Clint, more artsy-fartzy. Yeah. You know, the New York's of art vibe. New York.

Okay. Renee, you're speaking like you're an art connoisseur. No, I'm not. No, okay. Will you be bidding, Renee, or neither of them in your, I guess, sort of taste? Probably neither of them will fit my living room. But no, they're both good. Wow.

Well, Clint, you know what? Like, just... I've got to say it. Somehow yet again. Me, stop. I can't not do it. You've got to be confident in yourself. Unless she's doing it.

that double bluff thing, that reverse psychology. That doesn't work on you? Nah, it doesn't. It just makes me more confident. You need to win this at all costs. Come on. Okay, Dan. Give us, it's being up less than 30 minutes.

Well, less than 20 minutes. Okay. What are the current bids on Meg's Art versus My Art? The winner will have raised the most money 8 a.m. Monday morning. Clint's art. Balloon away, it's called. Ballooning. No, it is not.

Balloon away. Balloon away. Because you're like blown away by it and it was created with balloons. I thought that's quite clever. Currently it's got 24 bids and it's sitting at $73. Okay.

Meg. Meg's was more than that 10 minutes ago. Hers is called Twilight at the Lake. And we now know the lake is Lake Pukaki. It should be going to Lake Bukaki. It's not. It's got 12 bids, so less than Clint's, but it's currently sitting at $215.

Mom, where are you? You said you were going to bid on it. Yeah, Christine's tapped out. She tapped out at 50. Okay, right, you can check them out. Art to 334-3. I think we should stop with the updates. No.

Because I get nervous about it. I'll give you one more update later on. It's nice to know how it's tracking. Just because early days, that's not going to guarantee long-term results. Yeah, so if you want to bid or you just want to see the paintings, remember it's Art to 3343, I've not seen this many texts for anything we've ever done. I would bid on Meg's if it had one of those warning signs saying, do not swim.

You know what I think it would be more realistic for me. Yeah. Clint, Megan Dan. Producer Nipia is, I guess, the bus driver. Let's see who he reverses over with his highlights of this week. Very loosely. Atamaria, good morning and welcome back to another producer diary. A world record attempt, the Winter Olympics,

and an album absolutely no one asked for. It's been another massive week, so let's get into it. On Monday morning, we took a shot at a world record, and although we got bloody close to breaking it, still doesn't make the audio any less awkward. Right, Dan is. Absolutely going. Their eyes are closed, which is quite intimate.

I'm going to say. Okay, don't talk. Don't talk. Dan is doing a very good job with the kisses. And oh, he's getting quite, um... Sorry, if you've just tuned in, Dan has attempted the world record. Kisses on to Clint's cheek. Now, we actually did get bloody quotes to the original record of... 146.

The amount of times Dan kiss Clint on the cheek was... 139 times. Great. We're also ripping it up over at the Winter Olympics in Italy with Zoe Sadowski Senate picking up two silver medals. We caught up with our Swedish reporter Sven to get some cold, hard facts about the games. Thank you so much, JJ McAndon, for having me. No, it's actually Clint McIg and Dan now.

JJ McIntyrepped up like over a decade ago, mate. Oh, my, they've got, they changed it at a drop of a hat over there, don't they have shows? Sven, about you, what is it like being in Italy? Oh, great question, JJ. It's been amazing being here natively for the Fenta Ozampix. It's just amazing. You know what? Surrounding by so many elite atheists.

So did you say OZempic instead of Olympics? Thanks, Tom. It's impossible to try, to be honest. Can you ask the sanction questions, please? I sent you through the question. I've got the sanction questions. I'm sorry, we have sanction questions. Then we must ask me sanction question number two.

What has been your favourite sport to watch, Spend? Thanks, JJ It's impossible choice If I'm honest The ice scatting I've seen a lot of scatting in my time And they have very very good over here The best of the base

Sven, your sister She was a professional eye skater Wasn't she from back in the day? Yes, just stick to the scripts, please Thank you. Okay, thank you. So it's Finn We will cross back to you again

Later in the Olympics. Thank you, JJ Lucky you're the best. All right. Get you next in, buddy. Up your Dom. Yeah, it was a bit of a shame. He kept getting those names wrong.

Oh, wait. Actually, I believe someone else did that this week, too. The boys were talking, and I perked up to something that Dom said to... Dad. Did you call me, Dom. Oh, dead named me, eh? Dead named me. Ah.

I can see what he's doing. He might be a bit busy with his pocket. We're only four years in, mate. And finally, it was the update absolutely no one asked for. Apart from listener Scott. Just trying to give the people what they want. What do you want, Scott? I want the update, bro.

Give it to her. When do you want it? Now? Yeah, all right, buddy. And tomorrow. Hey! Yeah, to cut in long story short, Clint got some free bids and he thought that the best use of his time

was to write an album for songs you can listen to on your bidet. Bit niche. Don't forget to transfer me that extra hundred bucks for the extra mention there, Clint. That was another producer diary. We'll catch you same time, same place next week for another one. Bye. Yeah, God, Propel. for all your bathroom needs. No, they're not.

Don't go to them. I've heard a mixed bag, if I'm honest. You've heard nothing. You just don't have a bidet. Hey, and I dare you are? I've heard their service is shaky at best. There's a bidet update at 830. No. My house is now equipped with two

brand new bidets. Up and running heated seats. Washer, dryer. And I tell you what, no one talks about this. I'll give you a little secret for new players. You don't have to do number two's to use a bidet. Oh, goodness that goes. in a long time.

No one is going to make you feel bad for having a clean. No one. That's not a thing that I'm aware of. Meg's gone. She's left. She's sick of hearing about it, to be honest. Let's just move on. No, I sat on it finally for the very first time yesterday after the show,

and I recorded the experience. And you can hear that live at 8.30. That'll be riveting. Look forward to that. I tell you what? No other radio station will be doing it. No, I think that's probably a safe guarantee. Clit Meg and Dan.

Scandal with Meg. So Jacob Allorty, we're big fans now. We, because he thinks we're legends. We interviewed him a couple of weeks ago. And when he thought his microphone was off after I interview, he said, they're legends. And so we are big fans of Jacob. And I will not hear a bad word about him anymore.

You know what? I wasn't a fan before I interviewed him. And then he was lovely. I was like, oh, bugger. Bugger. Damn it. So he has done another interview, and I thought it really interesting and quite inspiring about,

and I think you'll like this, Clint, about his social media. because if you've ever seen a social media account of his, it's not real. He's not on social media whatsoever. It will be a bot. Oh, like his... Oh, you mean like he doesn't have a PR person

that looks after his social? He's not on social media at all. So if you've ever seen anything, I don't know if there are any fake accounts or like... Oh, it definitely would be. It ain't him. I have no relationship with social media. My dream was to be an actor.

My dream was to play in the movies. and, you know, I'm far too nervous to ask for more than that. And I've been given exactly what I wanted. And I see it exactly how I dreamed it. And I live it how I dreamed it. So for me, that's about all I can handle. What a life. Like the way he describes that.

And don't a lot of us, even though we're on social media all the time, don't we also wish that we could have zero relationship with social media? I love that his PR team haven't pushed him to it. Because I thought a lot, especially when he was up and coming, they'll be like you've got to get on. Promote the movie. Get on your Instagram to your million followers. I relate to that. Clinton, you probably do the saying.

Clinton and I don't wish for anything else because all our dream was to work with me. Meg. Yeah, work with Meg daily. And we've got it. So why would you wish for anything else? You guys are still on social media though. Yeah, yeah. We never know these co-labs out there.

They don't know when this is going to end. Hey, do you know, just on Wuthering Heights, the movie that's out now with Jacob Alortia and Miga Robbie. $80 million was the budget. Uh-huh. they made their budget back in 48 hours. Oh, and be careful who you go with. They saw Harrison on the Ash London show say that he went with his mum,

and one of my best friends I didn't pre-warn her. She just went with her friend who works at the library. It's a librarian older friend, and I'm yet to find out how that went down. Oh, okay. I sort of want to know now. Yeah. Hey, in that bit where Jacob was talking about us being legends when he thought the interview was over-duming this part.

Thank you. My legends. Just as we said the matching energy Is that what the bit you were talking about? Oh they said we had matching energy Matching energy Wasn't that lovely? Come and prove it

Come hang out with us Come have a drink Take a number again in line Meg Yeah All right next on the show We would love to know Yeah what is your What was your childhood incentive growing up

We sort of stumbled across us yesterday And we didn't really have enough time to explore it But we realise there are a lot of parents Paying their kids to do or not do something growing up Yeah I got $100 a year that every year I didn't get a filling, and up until I think 18,

and never got a filling because of that. I think I got $10 a week if I didn't wet the bed. Until what age? That was five years ago. Clint, Megan Dan. Oh my gosh. We're talking about incentives at work yesterday on the show, and one in particular that sticks out

was if this employee didn't take a single day of sick leave during the year, they got three extra days of annual leave to take the following year. Don't know how legal that is, by the way. Yeah, it feels really weird and gross to make people come to work if they're sick. You know, you'd just go, oh, I want that time. I'm just going to go to work. Yeah, and you make everyone else fit.

Even though I've got hand foot and mouth, you know? Like you just do it. Especially if it was like November. You know, you'd be like, I'm almost there. Dan, show me your palms? How is the hand foot of mouth, by the way? It's going well, they're drying up. Right, okay.

Oh, yuck. Outrageous. I forget you have that because I can't see your hands from where I am. You know, my wife has stopped sleeping with me because of this. She made me sleep in another room. threw a whole bottle of hand sanitizer with this job. Give us a call.

Oh, Andrew, then. Do you take us 3, 3, 4, 3. We want to talk about childhood incentives. I know you're out there. I don't know if it was your parent that did it to you, or you're the parent that has one going at the moment with your child.

But what are you paying money for? Or not even money, maybe it could just be like we'll go on a trip if you do this. Yeah, this was Susie's from yesterday when we just kind of briefly touched on it. Oh, that's good. My dad said to me if I was 12 and I didn't smoke. You said, give me 100 bucks at my 21st.

That's a different incentive in a way, the sort of workplace one. Unless your dad's your boss. Oh, we've got it. It's Thursday. Did you do it? Did you give the hundy? I did do it.

I got 200 in the end because I came clean. I actually did smoke a cigarette. I threw up like a... It was awful. Never smoked since. But, yep, I got $200 in my 21st. Oh, that works. I've got a mate who has a couple of teenage girls,

and he pays his daughters every week, like a pocket money, to not vape. As soon as he catches them vaping, that money stops and it never comes back. So it's like, is it, worth the drag on a vape for? I don't think so. I'd love to know what the incentives are now.

I mean, the 90s were a different time, not smoking cigarettes or, like, keep your teeth clean. But, you know, now we've got ones about vaping, you know. I mean, we all had a star chart, didn't we, as kids? At the end of the week, if you got all your stars, you got something. I remember me, it was a kind of surprise. Wow. At the end of the week, if I hadn't done, if I'd been good all week, kind of surprise.

Yeah, sometimes it's not always a deterrent. Sometimes it's to encourage you to do something. I need. Yeah, I used to cycle back in the day and Dad would pay me 10 bucks a week if I did my five rides over the duration of the week, which was good. And you didn't, but the guy used to ride with Did,

and what's he doing now? Yeah, he's on the Tour de France now, so you can look up for him, Corbyn Strong. My cycling career is still going real well. Tour de France. And now you work in the booth. Yeah, and I got a bike tattooed on my leg. You're both winners, mate.

Both winners, just in different ways. Okay, I wait under the edge. What was your childhood incentive to do or to not do what? Do we want to know what was your childhood incentive growing up that was given to you or that you currently give to your kids if you got them? What about this? My dad said he'd pay for a house deposit if I stayed celibate to a marriage. Let's just say I'm happy to rent for the rest of my life. Oh no, that's one incentive you'd stick to, surely. How funny, it must be a religious family because why would you care if somebody say celibate until then? Okay, let's go

to Danielle. Morning, Daniel. Morning, guys, how are you? What was the incentive? So the famous Gagga that you guys know. When I was, I'm going to say seven or eight. He's your grandparent, by the way, for people that are not listening. He is, yeah, my grandparent, my grandparent, yes. The guys know him very well. He said if I learn all my time of tables, one to 12 times, you know, every single one,

he and my grandma will take me to Disneyland. And I did it and we went. Oh, wow. Now that is a great incentive. Do you think that they already have planned and paid for it, but then just found a little poll to get you to do something? No, he's pretty, like he is pretty old school. He's 82 and he, like, nothing wrong with that.

I respect to that. I think there needs to be more of that, but he is pretty a stickler. Like if you didn't do it, no, not going. Okay. Good old Gaga, right? Yeah. Yeah, good old Gaga. Danielle, what is eight times seven?

55. Oh, yeah. She is good. Of to Disneyland for you. Thanks, anyhow. Tex came in, my husband's auntie told him she would pay him 100 bucks if he got to 21 without becoming a dad.

He didn't become a dad until 28, but never got his 100 bucks. Oh, that's mean. Still owed it. Yeah. And what about you, Chrissy? What are you using as an incentive? I've got a 2-year-old, and he's been toilet train for the last year now

because we give him one M&M for Weas and two Eminem's for poos. That's a good deal. I wish I got that still. I wish Hannah and my wife gave that to me. I don't think she cares if you do poohs on the toilet. And if you start not doing poohs in the toilet to get Eminemes, it's a bigger problem. I do get very grove when I'm constipated, though.

100%. All right, 8 o'clock. Got a big show for you coming up in the next few minutes. We'll have an update on the art pieces that Meg and I created. You can bid on them. They can be in your home.

Oh, no, that was easy. Thanks so much, Nicole. Have a good morning. Can't get worse. Coming up next, we haven't seen each other's descriptions of why our paintings are beautiful. Me and Clint are going face-to-face and art off to try and see who can make more money.

And yeah, we've had to, producer Carl told us to write the description for the listing. I haven't seen his, he hasn't seen mine. Let's see how we... Yeah. I'll also give you a little bit of an update on the bids as well because one is clearly leading. There's been a lot of criticism as to how am I artwork,

The Pix Beauty. Yeah. But in the next few minutes, after I tell you, I'll go, Of course, how do I not see that? Have a look at them first. Very obvious. Art to 33433.

Clint, Megan Dan. All right, the art pieces are up online. And let's get into this first, actually. It's Clint versus Megan Dan. Getting ahead of myself, how exciting it has been. These two, Meg and Clint, have made art. It's a competition. They've now uploaded it to trade me.

There is an auction going on right now. You can bid as well. Just text Art 3343. I mean, it's Meg's specialty skill, but you would be forgiven if you thought it was mine. You can, yeah, me and Clint in the dark from now on. We are blind to see what you guys are seeing. We are blocked from the Instagram page,

but we had to write descriptions for our pieces of art and we have not seen each other's. Clint, can you cue some nice music for me? Sure. Thank you, okay, I'll get started, and then you can start playing it. Okay. It's called Twilight at the Lake.

Lovely. One of one original watercolor on 100% cotton A3. Oh, like this? Better? That's better, thank you. Painting by Megan Mansel. the air is warm there is a gentle breeze the sun is setting

threading its golden light through the coloured clouds and you can feel the electricity of a storm brewing on the horizon you hear water lapping on the lake shore by your feet as your toes slip into the sand the day is done and a peacefulness washes over you

as you breathe in the beauty of the evening's afterglow hang this piece of art in a space where you want to enhance the feeling of calm stillness and resilience you made it through there is more ahead oh gorgeous me

you know what to describe I just the painting perfectly. You want to see it with your own eyes? Remember, art to 33443. Now remember the theme was beauty, and that is why I painted that specific picture. Well, mine, to describe you haven't seen it as a big canvas, I spray painted it black,

and then I filled balloons up with paint, and then pop them with darts, and they'd exploded red and white and black across the canvas. Really odd, but yep. Yeah, and people have said, how is that beauty? Well, I'm glad you asked. Blown away is the name of my art piece. Don't use wicked music for this.

The brief was beauty, and beauty if we're honest, is often not tidy. The balloon, a symbol of joy and celebration and hope, didn't disappear when it was popped. It just changed form. And that's the point. What? We tend to think beauty is symmetrical, framed and filtered. But some of the most beautiful things arrive through chaos. What are you talking about?

A mud-stained rugby jersey after the final whistle tells a story of effort. and sacrifice and triumph. A forest burns and new growth pushes through the ash. Childbirth, it's loud, it's sweaty and painful. What would you know about it? And then somehow impossibly, it's the most beautiful thing in the room. My painting is that moment. So as I finish...

It's what childbirth? Beauty. Jesus, why would you... It looks like someone's given birth on top of it, to be honest. They should not be using darts in childbirth. Beauty isn't in the balloon. It isn't in the darts. It isn't even in the splatter.

It's in the eye that's brave enough to look at the mess and say, actually, that's kind of beautiful. We ask for a description, not a novel, mate. Wrong with you. Okay, so not everyone understands. Once you see Clint's one, you'll go, that makes no sense. I will go to the bids now. This is the last time you, Meg, and you, Clint are going to get an update on where the bidding

sit. All right, change out the music, Clint. Come on. Okay. Remember that the auctions are going to be going over the weekend. They end on Monday

and we'll have a winner. The highest bid wins. We will not know. We'll see. And the money goes to a deserving cause with you yet to figure out on Monday. Okay.

In no particular order, currently sitting with 44 bids, $245 is the current bid. Why am we shaking? I shouldn't be nervous. My art is Brilliant.

It's blown away Clint's art piece. $245? I mean, yeah, it's getting there. Ossie, that's still a bargain. That's a steal for that, Bryce. With less than half of the bids of Clint's one. Only 17 bids on this one. Damn it.

Twilight on the lake. Meg's beautiful piece, a painting of a lake and some mountains in the background, is currently sitting. But this is not the end. The auction runs all the way over the weekend. You can text art to 334. there'll be more bids over the weekend.

Monday the winner is announced. Is Christine Randall voted yet there? She just texts through Art to 3343. So shit's about to get real. She did text me and Zeta would look great in the beach house. If it keeps going like this, we might have to quit radio, Meg. No one wants that, then it'll just be me. All right, Meg and I will not be a privy to the bids going forward.

8 a.m. Monday morning, we'll find out what happens to the money. every dollar that we take from both of these art pieces will be given away on ear to a deserving cause that hopefully you'll help us decide on them. Oh my God, it's so close. Well, it's not actually really at the moment. Clint Meg and Dan. It is going down tomorrow night in Ponsonby

in Auckland, the rainbow parade. And we've got Sean joining us this morning who you're the head organiser, correct, Sean? I am the head organiser. I've been doing this role, a privilege role, since 2017. It's grown a lot since... Yeah, it has actually. get between 25 and 30,000 people lining Ponsby Road to support the Rainbow Community,

but also they're supporting, they're the allies as well. And, you know, you just can't beat that feeling. Oh, yeah. There's definitely a special sort of something in the air on the night. Like, without a word of a lie, I remember once I hopped off the float the end of last year, and my face hurt from smiling so much after the thing. I was like, I think that was the happiest I've seen New Zealand. Because, you know, it's been a bit of a funny time over the last few years, hasn't it?

Funny time's a good way. I really brought us up. There's some good people around, you know? Sean, I was on a couple of years ago on the edge float. I know, you were topless. And I missed it. And I went back to MediaWorks and I'm like, why did I not get told about this? I don't remember it, but I won't ask to see photos.

Sounds like something I do. Being really honest, because obviously we're all going to be a part of again, we were given the opportunity to be on the float. So my reservations for being on the float this time round was that I didn't want it to appear like as a straight guy I'm standing on a float up in the air, waving to the community that I support, but I'm not a part of.

And I didn't want to just be seen to be doing it for almost clout or the publicity when it's not my thing. Clint has been worried about this behind the scenes quite a bit. Really worried, yeah. Should have reached out to me, Clint. We could have bonded over this moment. So it's got nothing to do with the sport. because I want 100% support the community,

but I still want it to be like, it's their community, and I'm the one on the float waving? Absolutely. Look, we've had this over the years that I've been involved anyway, and this is where it's turned into more of a community event, not just for the Rainbow Community, but also for the Allies. And, you know, especially from the corporates that join us, like the Les Mills, the Tower Insurance, the New Zealand,

that's all run by their diversity team. And so they bring their folk into the parade, It doesn't matter how they identify whether they're part of the community or not to show their support. And it's also recognition that within some of these corporate organisations, they are leading the way

in terms of rainbow policies, especially in our transgender space as well. So, you know, we encourage them, come out and support. What do you say to the people, and I don't even want to mention his name, but to the people that don't support the rainbow parade who want to stop it?

I guess I've got two things. Go on. be naughty here. Yeah, you can say three of you. So one is fix your eyebrows Because they're not great Okay The number two is

This validates the reason Why we need the parade So if you don't support the rainbow community And you don't support the parade Don't come It's not for you It's not for you You know we don't need you

We don't need your vile remarks Just don't bother coming Absolutely It's also a really fun day for families As well kids love it It's just the happiest place on earth It is for a couple of hours It's the gayest place on earth

It's wonderful. I can't wait to see it. You can check out rainbow parade.com. to get all the details on how to get along, get the merch as well and support. Yeah, you'll see us back of the edge float with the kiss cam. We're doing this year. Toplas.

Yeah, I promise. You've got a missing now, couldn't you have to. You know me, I can't resist the charm. Thanks, Sean. I won't be invited back. It's going to be fun. 7 o'clock kicks off tomorrow. We'll all be there.

Yeah, my daughter's coming as well. She's so excited about it. Oh, that's good. Yeah, I'm going to see if I can try and get my daughter. to Daisy there too. It's so beautiful. It's such an amazing night. I've gone for many, many years.

The Rainbow Parade is full of love and happiness and brightness. But it's so important to be there because it is extremely hard community to be a part of. And especially what's going on in the moment with the world. I think it's almost more, like, just as important if you're not part of the community to go along. Yes. And be a supporter. Absolutely. Show you're an ally and happy and,

and proud of our community and everybody that's in it. I'm wondering if everybody's planning on going for the first time if anyone's planning on coming out or still hasn't come out. It's important to have chats like this so we can just make it as normalised as possible because even though we feel like it is so easy to be out these days, it's still very, very hard to do so. I'd love to know what it is like being part of the community,

if you're new to it, especially in 2026. Because I imagine, like, my daughter's just so excited about going. And I just wonder if, like, nowadays, it's obviously, I would think, but I'm assuming that to come out nowadays, it's so much easier than it used to be, 10, 20 years ago. But there's still stuff, hey? Still stigma. Yeah.

What is it like being part of the community in 2026? And how far have we come as a society in New Zealand? If you'd like to shed some light on it, I would end with it. The rainbow parade is on tomorrow night in, Hansenby in Auckland if you want to get around it, the entire edge crew. Three of us will be there on a float with a kiss cam. We spoke to Sean the organiser and we briefly talked about the protests that they get against a day to celebrate a community.

And we're just wondering in 2026, what's it like being part of that community when those things are happening? I would just say quickly, there was a protest last year, Meg, when we were there. It didn't affect it at all. No, not at all. Obviously it made the news and stuff, but the actual parade itself went on without a hitch. We found out like a day later that there even was one. and we were in the parade. But yeah, it is Pride Month.

And if you can put yourself in somebody else's shoes for a second, if you are straight and have always been straight, imagine people being so angry about who you love, if you have a partner or who you're dating or attracted to and you're a straight person, that people protest it in the streets. Can you try and imagine what they must feel like, that hate must feel like? No. Because that is what's happening to people for just who they love

and who they're being and who they were born to be. and it's hard to imagine sometimes because it's so absurd when you think about it it doesn't affect anybody else you know it really doesn't affect anybody else I came up to my mum oh gosh I don't even remember how many years ago over a decade ago now

being bisexual I am married to a man and he is to me he's the man you know the like my I mean his name is guy he's the blueprint my one and only the man and being a bisexual person I am attracted to both men and woman

and I came out to mum and it was scary all those years ago and I imagine it's still scary now, even though we have come a long way, coming out to parents and family and friends, you still get scared of that judgment. So we want to talk about it if that's what you're planning on doing

or how it was for you. Kristen can relate, actually did what you've just said, I think, Meg, based on her text. Morning, Kristen? Morning. Now you call all the time, I didn't know this about you.

Oh, yeah, well, obviously, I like you, Dan, so. Yeah, exactly, exactly. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, right. Yeah, true. Dan is an acquired taste. I am in a quiet taste. I am in a quiet taste.

I feel like that in terms of bisexuality there's a lot of stigma put on us in terms of like, for example, with you Meg being in a straight-presenting relationship, it's like people will automatically assume you're straight and you must like guys because you're in a relationship with one and it's like, no, it's a spectrum and any woman could have swooped in and being that guy, I guess, for you. You're so right, Kristen. called bi-arasia when people say because you've ended up with your monogamous partner that you're with when if you end up in a straight-facing relationship, me and my husband, or it's very hard on men that are bisexual too because a lot of people have this judgment on them that if a man comes out as bi, it means he's gay but he's scared to come out fully. It's a lot of judgment on that. And so being bisexual, yeah, people were like, well, you're obviously just one or the other,

but you either want attention. If you're a woman normally, that's what you get hired at. as wanting attention because you hook up with girls or still like girls, but you're with guys. And if you're a man that is bisexual and out, then it means you're gay but too scared. That's a kind of outlook on it, and it's all wrong. Yeah, right.

Morning, Nicky. Morning, thanks for calling. What's your take on and all? Morning. I'm in my 50s now, and when I was growing up as a teenager in the 80s, it was, I don't think it was as easy to be as

visible as it is now. So, I just think it's great that younger people now can just sort of be really out there. You know, there's rainbow groups at school. There's things like the big gay out. You know, none of that stuff happened when I was a kid.

My family were all totally accepting of me. So, and my friends, my friends as well, but I didn't come out until I was well in my 20. just because, you know, it was a lot more difficult in those days. Yeah. I don't understand parents that don't above everything else

just want their kids to live a full happy life. In many years' time, game out as gay or whatever it was. Like, I would just, as long as he's happy, right? All you want is for your kids to be happy. Absolutely. And I imagine that from them. That first time where you're brave enough to step out is such an important time and I felt like I might have gone through someone like that

when my daughter dressed up my son and we talked about it on here the other day. He wanted to go to school like that. And my wife's like, no, he's just doing it for attention. If he did it all the time, it'd be fine. And I'm like, but for him to do it all the time, there has to be a first time. Because he was wearing some makeup and a skirt

and having him here on pig tails. As long as he's happy, right? Yeah, he loves it, right? He did go? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, yeah, if you're in the Auckland area, Ponson B, tomorrow night, seven o'clock, the parade kicks off. We'll be there with a kiss cam.

Yeah, come and have a pash. Yeah, yeah. With you guys, no. No, no, no, no, no, Dan's still got hand foot and mouth. Yeah, no, you don't want to patch me. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. It's Clint's Badee update. This is the last one, eh?

It's been a very short journey to get to this point. It's been, you know, I've been back on here with you guys for one month, and I know that because I arrived back when my daughter turned six months and she turned seven months today. Clint, you've been talking about it the whole time. Since, yeah, it's been too long. I obviously still have the six holes that I need to, um, put the jib back into and plaster and then repaint in the wallpaper and stuff. But both for days are in.

Do you want to applause? Like what is the... That is pretty. We're so proud of you. Wow, cool man. We're a plumber in the electrician and propelled of most of the work. Okay. Are you ready for a play-by-play of someone who had a news resolution that he's achieved before March?

That's a lot. That's three months nearly. Power work really slow. arrogance of this man. There's nothing propelling about them, to be honest. It took me a while to find the right company. They should be called snail bidetes. No, work on that one.

Yeah, that's not my strong suit. So, finally, for the first time, I sat down on my bidet, and this was the experience of a man who was hoping it was worth the weight. Okay, here we go. I keep doing something. Oh. Oh. Get in, help me.

Oh my goodness. It's funny. He's going. The water bill's going to be through the roof this month. Why have we got poor kidney G? The thing is, I knew they were being installed last night, Meg. And so I went over to his house. Wait, I haven't even given you the dryer experience.

There's a board. It's got a dryer function. For goodness sake. Oh, wow. That might be more fun. in the water. It's like a warm, gentle breeze just making its way down

the top of your crack and then bouncing between your cheeks. What time is that? Oh my. I'm going to live on this thing. And the thing was he did because I went over to his house last night and hit outside

because I was like, I know he's going to be using it at some point I had a recorder on. And this is the audio I captured about 9.30 last night just before he went to bed. He asked me to do it all he had. his phone and I said, why? And he did it's just for a thing. And I didn't trust you and I shouldn't trust my own stinks. We're done. No more. We spent 45 minutes making that audio sound real. Right. What a pathetic job we do.

It's time to move on. Clint has been plugging, propel toilets and vets for a month now. Annoying you just mentioned it. Yeah, sorry. I don't, we're not letting me. I want you. It's now your choice or your chance to plug what you would like to plug. If there is a business that you have maybe or something you want to push. Keep it fair. I like it. You can call us. O-I-Hundred the E-T-X-33-4-3. No more plugging. Clint's things. Dan, I don't want to hear about Tommy Guns. Dolly about Tommy Guns

to a great haircut. Can I just say that? Some of the best fades in the game. Producers-Chi-Rone. I've just started using two dudes teodorant and it's amazing. So I'm giving them a plug. That's all. They do two dudes on my face? Yeah, they do moisturize well. Do you put two dudes on your face? No, I use the cream of two dudes on my face

and then under my armpits. Enough. Honestly, God, I don't know how they didn't see that as a... Anyway. 0-800 at the edge 3343. Is there something you would like to

plug on ear and you can do it for free? I think NEPS or Bridges Carl whipped together an intro for you they've just told me. Oh, I wouldn't plug that

but plug this. I didn't ask for that. I just... This has been a shocker. Let's just notch this up as another one of those ones. We won't put it into the Radio Awards.

Oh well. We never win those anyway. No. Yeah. All right, here's a good one coming in. My husband's built Company, South Canterbury, Cloak, cloth...

Spell it phonetically, so we read it right. The other ones will be better than that. Over the last, you know, a couple of days we've been talking about how I want to get a bidet. You've got one now. There've been a few fun things along the way. Obviously, these songs to listen to whilst on a bidet, Volume 1.

That feels nice on my bottom. That's it. Okay, fine. It's now your turn to plug your business. Would you like some free air time? Normally you have to pay for these sorts of. things are now because Clint has rambled on about his thing, it's time for you. Oh, I wouldn't plug that, but plug this.

I'll have words with you after the show about that. Sometimes we maybe just don't need an intro. You know, sometimes I think something's just don't need it. All right, let's go to Tammy Robinson. First off, Tammy, what do you need a plug? Hi. Oh my God, I'm an author. I'm a New Zealand author, and I've just had a new book out,

and it's called Summer Nights in Pine Harbour, and it's the first book and a six-book series. So I just, yeah, can I just say one thing real quick? I live in Otrunga, and I work just south of Tickawadis, so it's a 40-minute drive. A few years ago, my four-year-old son and I went a serious car accident, and a man who hid up, he died. Oh, my God, I'll try not to cry. Sorry.

And then last year I got this new job, and a week after I started, a guy hit me and rode off my car again. So driving has been quite sort of scary for me. you guys get me through it every single morning. Oh, Tammy. Oh, tell you, darling so. I dropped my kids at school and then I put you guys on in this, listen to you the whole way, and I love it and I laugh, and sometimes I cry,

and it's just amazing, and you get me through it every day, and I just want to say thank you. Oh, we're doing it for you, Tammy. That's so nice. That is the, I am so sorry you've been through such trauma with your car, and what an incredibly strong person you must be to get back in that car and go again and get back for what they say, get back on the horse and know that you just have to drive your kids around and get from A to B.

Yeah, no, she drives a car. Yeah, no. And I'm so happy that we can give you some reprieve from those moments of anxiety and trauma when you're in that car and kind of hopefully distract you from it. And I'm so excited about your book. Quickly tell us, Summer nights in Pine Harbor, romance, thriller. Yeah, summer nights in Pine Harbor.

It's a romance, but there's always, you know, it deals with grief and forgiveness, and it's a cranky, 94-year-old guy, and it's, yeah, it's like, I think it's my 12th book. The first six I self-published, and I got an agent and a publisher overseas in the UK, so now they've been published for a world-wide, and this is a new publisher, and it's a book series, and they're all set in the same place with different characters, and, yeah, I love writing them. Well, okay, I'm going to buy your book. I love you support us, we're going to support you.

You've made our absolute morning. Yeah, we love you, Tammy. You're an incredible person. Oh, I love you, darling. Thank you. Thank you. Best. We're going to double past to the movies as well.

Let's send you along to that. I'm like, what else can I give Tammy? Yeah, Charlie XX in The Moment, since I'm March 5th, Brat's summer forever, so you can go check that out a couple of weeks. And Tammy, Dan won't be reading it because he can't read. No, I'll buy it anyway. My wife will read it to me.

Does it have any pictures? Tammy, love you so much. Summer nights in Pine Harbour, if you want to support Tammy as well. Let's go to Dale. Dale, what do you need to plug? Well, stuff my business. I think we need to double-plug candy business, really. That's so something Dale from freeze tub.com would say.

Freezetub.com is a small ice bath, New Zealand business, getting squished by larger Australian players. So if you want to support New Zealand and support Dale, who didn't even want to plug his own business and support Tammy, freestub.com. I've always wanted one of those as well. I'm going to have to buy a book and a tub. Thanks, Dale.

You're the best. Oh, my gosh. Freestub.com. Freezedub.com if you want ice baths in New Zealand. Okay. Maybe we'll have to bring this back because we've run out of time. I hear those ice baths are the ones that Art Green wants to use. Yes.

But unfortunately, like, he just, he hasn't got around to it. They're like the Lamborghini of ice tubs. Yeah, freeze tub.com. And summer, oh no, I've got the name of the book. Really, summer nights in Pine Harbor. Pine Harbor. Yes, that's the one. Nice.

What a lovely moment. She was so nice. And what an incredible story to be able to do that after all the adversity she's gone through. The strength that she must have, truly, the resilience and strength. And just in the strength of a mother as well to know that her kids just need her to drive. incredibly traumatic. We should do this as a more regular thing. Just give people to say that they love us.

No, like to give them a chance to promote what they're doing in their life. It's super important and giving them a chance to have a platform. And actually, you know what I'd like to think? I like to thank Propel for giving us an opportunity to even come up with a... Holy shit! You made it the whole way through. If you want more, find them on Instagram at Edge Breakfast. See you tomorrow. And then if that's not enough, check out our only fans, podcast, it is.
