Starting point is 00:00:00 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. No, no matter. Clint Megan Dan with Ash London. The Edge Brecky.
Starting point is 00:00:17 Hit harder in Auckland. One, two, three. Good morning, one to six. On your Thursday, hit the spot day today. Eight o'clock this morning. We're getting into a little bit of queen. I wish we didn't hit this spot in 605, so we didn't have to deal with Daniel Webby,
Starting point is 00:00:34 be it or hit this body. He bounces, he bounces on. I take it very seriously. I don't want to say moody. Well, I know, I do, because I just get in my head and I just want to make sure it's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:45 So let's do it next day. It's the mate that's at the table and their legs are bouncing and the whole table's shaking and you can see your water. And it's our own fault. We've got us into this position where people are expecting better every time.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Once my ex-boyfriend was acting like, that one night and I was like, what's up with you? You're all weird. And he's like, no, I'm not. I'm like, oh my God, are you going to propose as a joke? And then he goes, oh, actually, we need to talk and then he dumped me. Oh, God. Jesus. Well, I have something to tell you next day.
Starting point is 00:01:15 That's a great photo, though. Complete 180s from what you thought was going to happen. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. 6 a.m. throwback time team, us versus the playlist. What's the song? I said freestylers. And Dan.
Starting point is 00:01:28 Buck the microphone. No, I don't think so. Push up. Oh, yeah, I do love this song. But we were thinking a free song. Ruck up, rock a microphone. Oh, can we put bomb funk emcees on instead? We're glad to do that?
Starting point is 00:01:43 Oh, guys. Now, we could play this, and it's a bit more of an upbeat song. That's a freestyle that gets me a lot. We could do that because it is a great song, Bomb Funk MCs. Today, though, in 2015, which is the 10-year anniversary, which makes it a throwback. Adele went to number one with her song
Starting point is 00:02:03 Hello Now It is a bit more downbeat I will say that But what a song Hello It's crazy What do you put them like that
Starting point is 00:02:21 What are when you put them like that It's a Ten years old it's pretty crazy 2015. That would not have been my guest that's when that came up. It goes too fast sometimes and then too slow on a Monday.
Starting point is 00:02:36 What are Bomb Funk MCs doing now? Great question. Yeah, actually. Retired, probably. Still touring? What? Shut up. They're from Finland.
Starting point is 00:02:47 They are a... It's actually just one guy. Is it? But it's MCs. So, Bomfunk MCs is a finish. Otherwise they'd say are. Would they? No, no.
Starting point is 00:02:58 Not necessarily. I'd be more likely to go off the pluralisation of emcees and say this multiple. Is it one of those ones though where he's the main guy, but sometimes when he's busy, he gets someone to just step in and he can still say it's Bon Funk MC and it's like, it's kind of like this breakfast show. People just think of it as like just ash and whoever else. They were doing, they were touring and stuff together since 1998 and then split up in 2005, then got back together in 2019.
Starting point is 00:03:26 Is that me and my ex? Yeah. And now they have been touring ever since They've played a big festival in 2022 Don't know what else they're playing Because the only song we have in the system is Freestyle I wonder if there is another song I wonder if I can't be
Starting point is 00:03:40 The one we have in the system as well Can't be the one that has the massive long lead-up You know that bah-b-b-b-b-bhan has like the The strings like the western strings Of the guitar and stuff when it starts It's like it's about a four and a half-minute song I've got a short one for you It's only 345 but let's just get into it.
Starting point is 00:03:57 There's only one guy that's been in it the whole time. They know everything there is to know about bomb punk anything else out of the Clint Meg and Dan podcast. It is your 6am throwback. Clint Megandam with Ash Linden. It's the shorter version because of course all the OGs know that the long version
Starting point is 00:04:13 does this for about a minute and a half. We got stuff to do. The radio edit we played. The person that produced that also helped produce Derrude Sandstorm. Yeah, so it worked a lot with Derrude. I can hear the similarities to be fair. Both big, long later, both are huge hats from, like, the early...
Starting point is 00:04:38 I think a freestyle was 90s, wasn't it? Like 90s? And I think Derrude Sansom was early 2000s, but yeah. Halloween is upon us, and I used to really love Halloween. It's become a lot of admin lately. It's got a lot of admin lately. Only because you are taking it so seriously. You can just put a sheet over here and put some holes in and be, like, done.
Starting point is 00:04:57 But instead... That does look a bit... Yeah. Can be a bit slow. Okay. Well, I'm away for Halloween tomorrow. Yeah. I'm done Ricky Ween.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Oh, that's right. Got Ricky Martin in Australia. What time do you leave? 6 a.m flight tomorrow. Oh, God. Are you excited? I'm beside myself. If you didn't know, Ash is the biggest...
Starting point is 00:05:13 I'd say number one Ricky Martin fan worldwide. I'm really worried, though, that my friends at Sony are going to try and at last minute be like, do you want to meet him back? You'll cry. Yeah. But you know, then you couldn't say no because what a missed opportunity. I think I'd have to say no.
Starting point is 00:05:31 What if he's an asshole as well? You would say no. You know, they say don't meet your idols. Everyone says he's lovely. Is he? I just couldn't. It would be like, oh, I can't describe it. But you were Ash London. You've interviewed all the big stars.
Starting point is 00:05:45 It's different, though. It's different. You know? I can't describe how much he means to me. I love so much. I'm a loser you are. I know. I'm a loser for Ricky.
Starting point is 00:05:54 No, I love that. You've interviewed like Taylor Swift. and Chris Martin, all the big stars, but Ricky Martin, really, is the one that's the one that throws you. I did one phone interview with him and just burst into tears and told him much I loved him. It was real bad. Oh, he's going to be like, Jesus, who's this woman again?
Starting point is 00:06:08 I'd never figure, looking through the glass of my producer, Matt Curry, who was just looking at me and shake his head as I leapt on the phone. He was like, you lose. I kind of get it. It'd be like if you guys, and I don't want you to do this, and you're not going to anyway, but if you'd surprise me, it was like, Megan Fox in.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Megan Fox. It was like, Megan Fox, yeah, and then I've got to, like, what, be like, And you're like, and Clint subsist with you and then I've got to try and be cool. God. And just, no, no, thanks. If you start crying in front of her like,
Starting point is 00:06:34 Ashwood with Ricky Martin, you're definitely not getting late. Sorry, I'll hide down to a Halloween break there. It's very rude of me. Who's up for you then? Who's the person where you're like, I actually don't know if I would want him to be him because afterwards I'd be so embarrassed about how I reacted. Ricky Jervais. He's my idol.
Starting point is 00:06:50 My absolute. And I'd try and be funny to do a jig in front of him and he'd just lose it. So there's absolutely... How would you even approach that? Because I'd be the same with Ricky. I don't love him as much as you. But he's so cool, so biting, so funny. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:04 That there's nothing... Like, I've loved him for as long as I can remember. I think Meg's the same as well. Well, yeah, she did cry when I got Ricky Jervais. It was fake, though. Yeah, well, maybe... But she still cried when she thought he was real. I would have picked it.
Starting point is 00:07:18 No, here's how we got it. So there's this guy, and he does a Ricky Jervais's office impersonation. Like he does David Bowie. Brent? And so we went on cameo and he did, hey, Meg, like, you know, rah-rah, and he's doing all the thing, telling her, like, have a great maternity leave and whatever. And we said to Meg that he sent us the video and the bloody sinks all out and we were like, which is so annoying. But anyway, whatever, and we just kind of skimmed over that. And so we put up an actual video of Ricker Jervais talking whilst playing the audio of the impersonator doing David
Starting point is 00:07:52 Brent. So the audio was out of sync, but she's seeing the real Ricky Jervais's. and hearing what sounds like his character almost to perfection. And she goes, oh my God, she's like, this is the greatest thing anyone's ever done for me. She's like, oh my God, and she's in tears. She goes, this is the best day of my life. I remember.
Starting point is 00:08:08 And it was after the, oh, no, it was before the birth of her child. Yeah, she was just about to go, so she's quite emotional. She's like, this is the best day of my life. And then I was like, oh, Jesus. And my brain's going, take it to the grave, take to the grave. And the other part's going, she's going to find out, she's going to find out. And so I had to be like, oh. And then she saw my face drop.
Starting point is 00:08:23 and then she was like, what? And then she was like, I said, I never want to see that video. For other reasons. And then we did another one, which was more believable, where we pretend to get Stanley Tucci on the line. He wanted Stanley Titch was on Zoom, but he cancelled last minute, and we couldn't tell me because she was so excited,
Starting point is 00:08:41 prepped all her questions. So Dan, we made up this thing that Dan was running late, and so, but actually Dan was sitting in an office on Zoom. With a ball cap. With a ball cap, and he'd drawn glasses on with vivid. And I was like, all right, Nick. And we said Stanley's camera wasn't working, and we were going to bring it in later,
Starting point is 00:09:00 but Meg called it straight away and then we turned my thing on and I'm just sitting there with a board cap on. Meag, it's Sally Toochie. And he was like, until you had him, but he really did cancel. Yeah, like last minute. So we were like, and we've been teasing it. So we're like, we need to put a bow on this. It was a dirty, dirty bow, but we tried.
Starting point is 00:09:18 It was a filthy little bow, wasn't it really? Oh, that's so good. That radio. We laughed. Oh, we did. And it was at pre-recorded like 5.30 in the morning before the show started. So she was a bit of an icy show when that one started at 6. That's not your fault that he cancelled.
Starting point is 00:09:32 And you know what? Meg takes a joke like anyone. A really good, she's really good at it. Yeah, she's on the show tomorrow, actually, because of course, with Ash being at Ricky Martin, Meg's going to be jumping in for a Halloween special. Yep. Yeah. You know, I'm going a day early and having a secret girl's dinner with some girls in the group chat,
Starting point is 00:09:49 I've been on others. Oh, no, you bet. I know. at a really, really fancy restaurant. Let me guess, before you even sit down to eat, go, hey guys, nothing on Insta? Nothing on Insta. No, why?
Starting point is 00:10:00 Clint Meg and Dan. Lesh school. Clint Meg and Dan with Ash London scandal. Have you guys ever seen The Bear? Yeah. Season 1, but apparently season 2 is amazing. Oh, no, I disagree. Season 1 was amazing.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Season 2, drag. Oh, good. So, check down at the right time. Yeah, yeah. I love the show. I love Jeremy Allen White, who is the best. guy, plays Karmie, the main guy, who has been, um, he's, was also the face of Calvin Klein, eh, and everyone lost their minds right, yeah, I got
Starting point is 00:10:32 you. delicious. Um, so he's playing Bruce Springsteen in The New Springsteen by your picket, Deliver Me from Nowhere. This guy is an actor, never sung before, never played guitar before. I'm going to play you a bit of this trailer that's dropped. Um, Bruce Springsteen's heavily involved in the making of this film. And if you can imagine, Jeremy Allen White, an actor, learn how to learn how to learn how to
Starting point is 00:10:52 Learn to play guitar, get singing training, but not just to sing well, to sing as much like Bruce Springsteen as he could, then had to go in with a full band in front of Bruce Springsteen and perform. And you're going to hear a bit of the boss here pretty much saying he bloody nailed it. Every single riff on that record, he got down.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Bulls springsteen lived from me from nowhere. I wanted to shoot as authentically as possible. What does Bruce do? He sends his guitar. I was like, okay, let's learn to play the guitar. I had not sung in any professional capacity. Bruce called me because he'd listened to some of my recordings. He said, you know, you sound like me, but you're singing the song.
Starting point is 00:11:50 You're making the song your own. your own. That's what I want. I want you to make your own. Jeremy made it very easy. He just did a beautiful job of it. Hearing Jeremy was as electric a moment as I've ever had.
Starting point is 00:12:09 I love Bruce Springsteen so much. That's an incredible. And that voice is, if you didn't know, you'd think that was Bruce Springsteen. The thing about the bosses as well, Bruce Springsteen, that's like his nickname, is His fans are more passionate than the most passionate Swifty. Oh, yeah. And the thing that they've gone through his whole career,
Starting point is 00:12:30 and they look at Bruce Springsteen as like full fans. Yeah. So people are going to judge this movie, I'd imagine. I wonder if this guy, if he's never really sung, and now he's just mimicked Bruce Springsteen through this whole movie and however long that takes to shoot, wouldn't that almost become your sounds as well now? Because that's how you've...
Starting point is 00:12:50 That's how you sing now. So now you just sing and every time you sing anyone they're like, it sounds like you're trying to be Bruce. It's incredible because it's one thing to act as the person and I think that's probably the easier part. Mimicking their voice and completely changing the vocal. Like your vocal cords limit what you can sing like. So he's changed the whole way he sings into another person
Starting point is 00:13:11 which is incredible. Produce Anipia is someone who's actually in a band and is a musician. Do you watch movies like that and see where their hands are like on the fritz to see if they're playing the right chords? I'm always watching the guitar to make sure that their hand position is correct and then they're also playing the right chord as well.
Starting point is 00:13:27 And are they because it doesn't probably matter. Like none of us are really looking that closely and we don't know because we don't play guitar. But a lot of the time they actually do learn the guitar. It does like sometimes their transitions are a wee bit slower. But like in these big Hollywood films, they tend to actually be playing the guitar, which is so cool. Yeah, they have to.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Because so many purists are going to be watching and judging. Yeah. So cool. My wife Hannah is the same with horse riding in movies. Like Yellowstone is in minefield for her. She watches like Kevin Costner on a horse and she's like, God, he's terrible. His heels are all over the place.
Starting point is 00:13:57 He doesn't know how to ride a horse. Oh my gosh. To me, I'm like, oh, that looks right. Yeah, just to a naked eye, untrained eye. But funny, eh. Because if you're an actor, you can just act like you're playing the guitar, not actually be playing it.
Starting point is 00:14:09 But I guess it probably always helps if you're actually doing the thing. I can't wait to see this film when I'm going to be seeing it in the cinemas, I think, to get the full, like, sound experience. Yeah. All right. Need energy.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Brocka supports energy needs every day. Thank you for supporting and sponsoring scandal team. Next on the show, Nauty 640, and it's to do with the Queen, the actual Queen, RIP, not the band, and AI that seems to be getting people very... Yeah, like very excited. AI, I've never heard of it.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Yeah. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Time to get naughty at 640. You're a queen. Dan dabbed. He did. a dab on the 640 opener.
Starting point is 00:14:51 The naughty 640 damn, that's what they call it. No one's doing that anymore. No. The Queen's being naughty lately. I know there's a lot of people using AI for a lot of different things. AI pisses me off. I said it yesterday. You don't know what's real anymore.
Starting point is 00:15:05 There should be kind of like, you know, when wasn't there rule when you were using filters and I had to say that this person, this influence was using a filter? Kind of like with a pay post. It'll say, you know, paid promotion or whatever. And then it'll have like the filter that they using on their face because you can click it and try it yourself.
Starting point is 00:15:21 On my Instagram now, when I post something, it gives me the option to say that it's AI. Yeah, but so if you choose not to disclose it, then, yeah, it should just be a thing. If you're using AI, then it comes up with some way of telling us. But people are having fun with the Queen at the moment, and AIing the Queen just living her best life, living a life that she never did leave. Good afternoon. Terribly sorry to trouble you. Do you mind if I use your toilet?
Starting point is 00:15:49 do rather need a poo. I've got a turtle head poking out, as they say. Wouldn't be long, promise. For goodness sake. This is going around, being a woman of the people, but then she's also online gaming. Three left, I'm one shot, and now Starmer's invited me to a party. Mods, will you message him offline, please? I'm going to block the... He does this every day wanting a bailout, thank you. I've got the voice down, Pat. That's what she did. Do you think the Queen ever really did say, sorry to talk, okay? Do you reckon the Queen ever did say the Sea word? No, God, no, no, no, no. She's just in a private residence with Philip.
Starting point is 00:16:19 No, she would never. When you get frustrated and go that little... Yeah. Maybe. I think she's probably sassy than we think. Yeah, I agree. This is her. You know, like, sometimes you go to a country
Starting point is 00:16:29 and then you start adopting, like, the accent. If you've been there a while, this is the Queen in Jamaica. Andrew, how much time have you have you tell you? You bring shame pound of wool our way name, I'm and now take it again, you, yeah? Yes, ma'am. You have to correct yourself from now. Me can't have your walk wrong like some idiot prints. Set yourself straight.
Starting point is 00:16:43 True say, mum. Oh, my goodness, ma'am. Say, I'd do that. Do the Queen doing a Jamaican accent. Yeah. I mean, it sounds pretty good. Yeah, do you ever wonder what the Queen would have sound like if she'd put together like a rap album?
Starting point is 00:16:53 Oh, funny, yes, I have. I'm a brown heavy, but I keep it cocked. Jewel's in the pocket tea kettle locked. Came out the palace straight to the block. Slippers on concrete, still I won't stop. No! I kind of love it. I kind of love that.
Starting point is 00:17:07 It does as well. Everyone's obsessed with the Queen just doing stuff that they wish they'd seen her do. There's no posh rappers, are there? Not really. I think, I mean, most of them are posh because they're so rich. That is true. But they don't come across that in their rap.
Starting point is 00:17:21 They grew up, you know, in the projects and stuff. Someone just texts saying, I saw one of the Queen Wrestling Stephen Hawking and choking him out. Oh, God. I did see one of Stephen Hawking's doing like a 900 backflip in his wheelchair. Like someone just kind of AI there. That's like a ram. Yeah, like a half pipe.
Starting point is 00:17:40 And then he gets down and like does like the shocker brother. I did laugh at that. Our kids as they grow up are going to think anything's possible. It's so true. It's so hard to impress our kids. But, like, some of them are really believable. I think some of the animal ones, like I saw one the other day of a hawk stealing a baby off the ground
Starting point is 00:17:59 and flying off, obviously, AI. But it looks so believable, whereas the hawking one and the queen ones to a certain degree. Not everyone has really great, like, tech literacy in the world, and a lot of people are just going to be like, well, it's real. But that's the thing that AI strips away, is any creativity because you all need to do
Starting point is 00:18:16 is type in the queen doing a rap and it does it. You know what it also strips away is like actually people doing incredible stuff like the Nitro Circus guys if they're doing a triple backflip
Starting point is 00:18:26 and then people are just going to be like fake, you know and it's like no this person has mastered their craft over like 10, 20 years. I really do hope the pendulum swings back to the middle and we just get back to the appreciation
Starting point is 00:18:36 of human achievement and creativity that comes from a human being. Dear I say I don't know if that's going to happen. I've loved to think it was. The Queen on Love Island as well. Yeah, there's a few of them going around at the moment. Some of them are funny. From the actual queen to the band queen,
Starting point is 00:18:53 hit the spot in our practice behind the scenes. Segway of the week. Do you want to hear how bad we were yesterday and then you can have a guess at how good we may have gotten over the last 24 hours. 8 a.m. this morning we will attempt hit the spot with Queen. Clint Megan Dan.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Stinky B. 8 o'clock this morning and it's going down again. Hit it. Hit it. Hit it. He hit this spot. Whoa. Hit this spot.
Starting point is 00:19:17 We keep saying this is the hardest one, yeah. And most of the time... Because it is. Most of it is, we ramp it up. Believe it. Yeah, we ramp it up every week. And it sounds like a broken record. Like you're saying, Clint, we're going,
Starting point is 00:19:29 this is the hardest one year, it's the hardest one yet. It is genuinely every week. There's nowhere we can go from this. We have to bring it back now after this one. What's we said last week? We're going to bring it back and simplify it. Nick Minut. Then Chris, listen to the show,
Starting point is 00:19:39 suggested Bohemian Ramp City. Dan was like, okay, well, there are so many voices we're going to have to all do it. It is actually like Take a listen This is just a cut down If you haven't checked out our latest Instagram story at Edge Breakfast Of us
Starting point is 00:19:52 Going through it I think we spent an hour after the show Just trying to work out Who was doing what bits We had a spreadsheet It was all colour-coded Yeah If we, Ash and I were singing together
Starting point is 00:20:02 If all three of us were singing together It was just Ash just Anne, just me Anyway we're practising Hit the spot Scaramose Can you do the Fondango We'll not let him go Let him go
Starting point is 00:20:11 Let him go Oh no I don't even know if I was in key for some of that. No, Mamma me, Mamma me, for me. It's not bad. For me, yeah, well, it's not good on. No, no, no, no, no, no. Magnetico.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Are you saying Ms. Milma? Let me go. I go. Let me go. Bismid. I'm doing bispelana. Okay, enough. My goodness.
Starting point is 00:20:46 God, it's a tough listen. An hour. I just played you 40 seconds. We did an hour of that. And that was together. And then after the show, we went home and practiced again. I put buddy in front of a movie because he's homesick. I was like, you watch Elio.
Starting point is 00:20:58 I'm going to my office to do important work. And the thing I said to you guys... I know, what are you doing, Dad? I'm working. I'm working. Besmeanor. We'll not let you go. I said you guys yesterday, like, apart from hitting the spot, which we really want to do,
Starting point is 00:21:11 I'm dubious where we'll be able to. can do it. I think we've all realised as long as we put on a good show. It needs to sound like listenable. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, get the bets right. Yeah. It's one of those ones I think we'll be forgiven if the timing is out this one time,
Starting point is 00:21:26 even though that's the whole point of the game, because there are so many layers, and as long as we have fun performing the song. It's the longest one we've ever done as well. So I've pitched yesterday that we bring the music up halfway through and see if we're in time, just a little check in time. Just a little check in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:41 And we can do sort of a little hit the spot there and then bring it back down and bring it home for the crescendo. Because it's more than twice as long as our longest ever hit the spot. It's about a minute almost and so at the 27 second mark I'll bring the music back up
Starting point is 00:21:54 almost like we get two chances are hitting the spot. And then if we're out we'll get back in time speed up or slow down and then we'll bring it back down there and then we're on our own
Starting point is 00:22:11 for 37 seconds or whatever it is. We'll think as if we hit the stop here We sort of done it And then we're back there And then we're back there And then Dan's going to do like a countdown Into the fom, bam, bam, but so we'll be like And then down you're going to do like
Starting point is 00:22:24 1, 2, 3, 4 or 8 7, 5, 6, 7, 8 Whatever it is Yeah, maybe I'll do a 5, 6, 7 8 Okay, yeah Okay, well let's work that out Okay, okay, I'll go I'm getting nervous, I'm getting nervous, I'm getting nervous How many more times do we need to practice
Starting point is 00:22:37 Or is it kind of like if you You know, read your last minute study notes before you walk into the exam and then that's the only thing you remember.

Starting point is 00:26:05 So here we are. It's very interesting because we were like, okay, well, what about screen? I didn't see that. And I was like, you've got to see Scream. I'm going to, I've already pre-listened to the clip during the adjourn song. I think it's a little bit too scary to play the whole thing. Oh, really? You tell me if you think I need to get rid of that.
Starting point is 00:26:20 I'll give you the nod. Listen, asshole. No, you listen, you little bitch. You hang up on me again. I'll cut you like a fish, understand. Yeah, that's enough. We get to beep the B word. Produce the Nipia?
Starting point is 00:26:34 Yeah. He just gave us a double middle finger when he looked at him. Now the thing is I don't want to lead the witness here But I also love horror And I reckon screams a bit of a shitter Oh I think the fact when you're home alone Your phone keeps ringing
Starting point is 00:26:50 And then somebody like And even just the costume The fact you never see their face for so long And it was a cultural phenomenon That mask remember I was terrified on it Yeah it was scary Oh my gosh Everyone like luck
Starting point is 00:27:01 But then again like I haven't gone back and watch them And that's the point of this Does it hold up in 2025 I would say Ash was bang on with the, and I think this is a reason why is because I grew up loving the scary movies. You know the parody movies?
Starting point is 00:27:15 Yeah, yeah. And then the first one is a parody of Scream, which I did it backwards. I watched the parody first and thought that was funny. So I've gone and watched Scream. And so the whole time I was watching it, I was like, oh my God. I just, I was putting all the references together. And yeah, it wasn't
Starting point is 00:27:31 that scary. I wasn't scared by it at all. No. A kind of... Twist at the end. Yeah, well, see, is what I liked about it is that usually they like make you think it's someone and then it's not that person spoiler alert was the people that you thought it kind of was and they're trying to get it do you know what I mean which I kind of liked yeah it's like a double twist
Starting point is 00:27:48 yeah double twist you one way twist you back the way the cast all teenagers but they look 30 that was that was the 90s in the early 2000 they were all 35 playing 16 year olds it was just the thing that was about unbelievable and then yeah the landlines imagine having to run to the phone to talk to your own
Starting point is 00:28:09 murderer. That's so true. It's like, just take the phone off the hook. Yeah, literally. Just cut it. Just cut it. I think she out to the phone like four times before she's like, oh, this is scary. I actually forgot Drew Barrymore was in that. At the start. A-lister. Yeah, but she's only the start, isn't she? Yeah, just at the very, she gets killed. Yeah. Spoiler. Although it did come out 96, so it's 31 years old, and Bella says
Starting point is 00:28:33 does not. Hold up. Hold up. Yeah. It's just a bad, bad maths from me, 29 years old. Do you remember the scary movie was a parody of that? They do that complete first scene again. Oh, that's true. And he stabs her and she's got really big boobs and her implant comes out. Yeah, okay, that's so good.
Starting point is 00:28:53 You're ruining the scary movie. That's so funny. Okay, we want to do a controversial top five, a Halloween movie edition. With Halloween tomorrow, going into the weekend, what are the top five scary movies that need to be watched? Oh, that's a good question. Do you know, I've never seen a scary movie? I'd start to finish.
Starting point is 00:29:09 Really? Nope. Oh, my favourite. Really? I think the older ones, I don't think I've seen a good scary movie that's been new release in 10 years. Really? I think all the best ones came out years ago.
Starting point is 00:29:20 I've never saw, have you seen Saw? Saw. Saw is so good. I love that. The first one, at least, was quite clever. And at the end you're like, oh my God. But then they just got very, very gory and creative with how people were going to die and it sort of lost its storyline.
Starting point is 00:29:34 That blurs the line. Mine, a little bit between horror and thriller, though, I reckon. It's not a pure horror movie. You're like a Texas Chainsaw Massacre? Is that horror or thriller? Horror, that's horror. Have you seen, who's seen Human Centipede? Yeah, that's just weird.
Starting point is 00:29:46 What? Have you seen it, Bill? Yeah, but more than movies, you haven't seen, you've seen that. It's so iconic. I don't know. And Forrest Gump is iconic. Human Cerepid is deeply disturbing. All right, controversial top five, Halloween, a movie edition.
Starting point is 00:30:01 What do you think needs to be in the top five, and we'll compile the list? of the must watch films this weekend. Controversial top five Halloween edition. What are the five Halloween movies that must be watched? It's fun watching one of these as well. Like if you're at home with your partner, snuggle up, popcorn, turn the lights off. I just, to me, I can't think of anything worse. Really?
Starting point is 00:30:25 And there's no, no chance. The only horror film I've tried to watch, I went to the drive-in and put the ring in or the ring. Yeah. And it got to like about a minute in, and I was like, nope. And I turned the car around and watched Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging instead. How old are you? Did you used to drive-through movies? My mum and dad used to do those.
Starting point is 00:30:44 No, in Melbourne where I grew up, they had a Coburg driving. It was like such a fun thing to do. I was like a throwback to the old school. Exactly. And you're like back to the car. You sit in the boot with your duna. So good. She drove a Cadillac in there.
Starting point is 00:30:56 Yeah, that's better because you don't want a car with a good boot because otherwise you're just watching through the windscreen. Yeah. Not fun. Which is fun in itself, though. It's special way. Libby's on the phone. What's the horror or scary movie
Starting point is 00:31:07 that you'd watch this Halloween, Libby? Hey, Freddie Kruger, Nightmare on Elm Street. Is he the one with the chainsaw? No, that's the Texas chainsaw massacre. His name's Leatherface. Oh, he's very... Just hearing that makes me... I don't believe it's very chaos.
Starting point is 00:31:27 My dad. I don't know like the sound of it. I don't like anything about it. It's Libby's fault. Libby suggested it. We need to sit down and watch a whole thing. horror movie with you. Melanie enjoys the ring.
Starting point is 00:31:37 That's the one that you couldn't even get through. Oh, no, no, no. Don't enjoy it. Oh, you don't enjoy it, Mal. You're like Ash. Not fun, but you think it's a must watch. No, terrifying. A little child, like girl coming out of a TV?
Starting point is 00:31:48 Absolutely not. I didn't even get to that bit. I turned it off and it was just the TV on static at the start. She's got very greasy hair, doesn't she, the girl that comes out of the TV? Yeah, she's had a good hair wash. Bella needs to watch that one. Yeah. Need to get into that.
Starting point is 00:32:03 And Jesse. I reckon this should be number one, the movie that you're suggesting. Yeah, I was thinking about Silence of the Land. Oh, yes, Hannibal Lecter. I couldn't finish that. Great performance from him in those movies. And it's very rare that you have a good acting performance
Starting point is 00:32:18 in a horror movie, but he nails it. Isn't he a cannibal? Yeah, I thought that was awesome. I watched it as a young kid and scared the life out of me. Yeah, he is. He's a cannibal. Yeah, I remember watching The Witches. They'd scare the crap out of me as a kid.
Starting point is 00:32:32 There's a bit in a normal. A dull film. Yeah, and the women all go peel the faces off in the conference and they're all witches. Isn't that what Hannibal Licked does? He makes a skin suit? Oh. Is it something else? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:32:43 No, he goes, he goes, hello, Clary's. Oh, God. I was very excited to have you over for dinner. What about Blair Witch Project? Remember, like, after that movie, everyone was doing little rock formations and having sticks hanging up in the trees. That was a cultural phenomenon again, like scream. Yeah, I feel like a Blair Witch Project has to be, although it made some of us feel nauseous in the cinema. But have you been good with motion sickness?
Starting point is 00:33:06 So there is a top five that has been suggested by IMDB, the internet website, movies that you should watch this Halloween. Number one was The Exorcist. That came out, I think, in the 70s or 80s. What about The Shining? The Shining's number two. Is it? Yeah, Jack Nicholson.
Starting point is 00:33:22 He's amazing. He goes crazy and chases his wife through the hotel. Is that Here's Johnny? And he goes, here's Johnny. I think there's a clip. Oh, yes. Here's Johnny. The Conjuring comes in at number three.
Starting point is 00:33:37 That's a more recent movie. Then Texas Chainsaw Massacre number four and the ring number five. Yeah, this is maybe a part of the ring you didn't get to, Ash. I have to stop her. If I don't, my son will die. Oh, yes. You're all. Nah, nah, nah, no, no.
Starting point is 00:33:55 Ash is done. All right. Oh, happy Halloween. We're all going to be dressing up tomorrow. We've got a few tricks and a few treats in store for you tomorrow. So it'll be a lot of fun. Although not all of us will be a part of the festivities because Ash will be
Starting point is 00:34:08 in Australia celebrating Ricky Martins. Push and pull you down. Living the movie is back for the Halloween show. Some people would say Ricky Martin's quite scary. I was going to say the only scary thing about Ash is how much he loves him. If I was Ricky Martin, I'd be scared. No, I'll be a cool hang. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Living La Vida Loca Okay Living La Vida Loca Oh there I come on Come on La Viee come on Go on LaVie come on Woo Play a song
Starting point is 00:34:43 Clint Megan Dan Scandal It's a scandal Quite a scandal Scandal with Ash London Scandal thanks to Baraka Baraka's range includes energy
Starting point is 00:34:52 Immune Hydro and Mind to support you daily So we all know SOMBA right SOMBR He's an artist Came out of nowhere Bad at the moment And the latest one Very catchy.
Starting point is 00:35:07 He was on stage over the weekend. He has a segment that they do call that Call Your Ex on stage where people come up and call their exes. And he thought it would be funny to call Selena Gomez, whose number, I don't know what. I don't think they actually dated. But he's got a number and he thought this would be a cool, funny thing to do. I'll call Selena.
Starting point is 00:35:23 She'll be like, hey, Samba, and they're like, wow, they're friends. I'll get some headlights out of it. Awkward. Awkward at the best of times. Unfortunately, he called Selena. And I don't know if you've got the numbers confused or if Benny Blanco, Selina's husband,
Starting point is 00:35:36 had the phone, but here's the audio. Selina? Hello. Oh, is it Selena? Who's this? Wait, is this Benny Blanco? Yes, who is this? Somber, you know me, right?
Starting point is 00:35:48 Benny, you know? Sumber. Yes, I know you. I'm sorry, Benny. Okay, I was trying to call your wife. Bye, Benny. Oh. Ew.
Starting point is 00:35:59 And so it was, he had his mic, like, his phone up. to the microphone and stuff. And Benny was like, how do you have my number? It's one of those ones you know what somebody goes. It's so on so on so there and you're like, who's this? And they're like, that's when all of a sudden you're like, oh, some crazy's got hold of my wife's number. Just be a normal person.
Starting point is 00:36:14 It's the awkwardest video and it's everywhere and it makes him look so bad. Yeah. Because it's like when you're a famous singer and you're singing cool songs, everyone's like, oh, they're so cool, they're so cool, they're so cool. And then you see this video and you're like, not cool, man, not cool. But I feel like someone like Benny Blanco or Selena Gomez for that matter, they're the type of people will be like give me a heads up before you call.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Of course, so I can be in on the joke and then I don't sound like a dickhead because if you're, and he'd be very protective of his wife, some rando calling newlyweds. I hate all those things but they're like, call someone and you through your phone scroll through your phone and call them. We used to do that.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Of course he did. And maybe it was called like Clemigan Dan's Who Is This? And Dan we'd call a number from his phone and we wouldn't tell Dan who it was and he, without asking, who are they? He had to go, so are you still doing what you're doing before? And then he'd have to go, oh, this is blah, blah, blah. And we'd stop the timer and see how long it took Dan
Starting point is 00:37:10 to work out who the person on the other line was. I hated it, and I wasn't even doing it. You know, I worked on a radio show once as a producer. And one time we were doing this thing on air where we were talking about, and I won't say the topic and I won't say the celebrity we called. But it was a very trivial thing we were talking about. We're going to call them to get advice.
Starting point is 00:37:25 This is an awful story. Live on here. Okay. And the guys that I was producing, they were like, let's just call them live. Okay, so they called them. Yeah. They answer. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:36 And sort of like a little bit like, hello? And they're like, hi, right, we just wanted some advice. And they asked them the question. The question was something, because they're not more trivial. It was something like, do you put butter on toast before you put peanut butter on? Yeah. Oh, is peanut butter already got butter? And they were like a sandwich expert.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Yeah, yeah. It wasn't that, but it was similar. Like that mundane. And they go, oh. What was it out? What were you wanting? And the guys were like, well, we've got a really good question for you. Are you okay?
Starting point is 00:38:04 Answer now. And she's like, I've just found out my dad just passed away. No. Live on here. You don't ask the question. Live on here. And then they're like, oh my God, I'm so sorry. I'm so, so sorry.
Starting point is 00:38:16 I apologize. Don't worry. At this point, you're like, we're going to get tired. I'm like, cut the call. Cut the call. Cut the call. And then she's like, just, what's the question? And they're like, no, don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. Oh, gosh. Hey morning, they asked the question. She was like, actually, no, that is, that's very trivial. Sorry, I'm going to have to go. Didn't it? So they ask the question, and then she turned around and I was like, actually, no, I'm not going to answer that.
Starting point is 00:38:39 See you later. After pushing them to ask her. Oh, I want to cry. That is the kind of, as a radio host, that's the kind of thing you never forget. I was like, under the table. Because I like awkwardness, but that was something. That was another level. Oh, me.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Yeah, okay. Never called them again. No. Yeah, you'd delete that. number so that you don't ever So Samba, let that be a lesson Let that be a lesson Samba Clint Megan Dan
Starting point is 00:39:05 It's Clint Megan Dan's I've never met her crap co-worker named Kyle has been texting Kyle Kyle Josh we work with Josh He's great
Starting point is 00:39:17 Joshy Oh he's a beautiful boy I love Joshy if you're listening And Jack is the other one Yeah Jack for me is a safe pair of hands I mean we work with a Jack here now and he's, you, I'd trust him. Honeybone, it's his last name, so it's a good name.
Starting point is 00:39:32 I want to put her a female name out there as well, another one. Lisa. Oh, yeah, we work with a couple of leases here, who I love. I've worked in the other industries with leases as well. I used to work in a bank, and she was the teller next to me, Lisa, and goodness me, she was good. Someone's texted Harriet. I love my friend Harriet Power. Shout outs to you, has.
Starting point is 00:39:53 And Brittany is another one. So we give you the chance next to veto these names and go, they do not deserve to be on the list and if no one vetoes them then we can I guess by 8 o'clock say hey no one's ever met a crap co-worker named Kyle or a crap co-worker named Harriet
Starting point is 00:40:08 let's not table of Vicky because someone just texts through Vicky as an effing seat they're just getting in early before we even lift her up what did Vicki do? I'd love to know what Vicki does yeah please text back with the better info on Vicky
Starting point is 00:40:21 okay so if you've got a story about a Kyle or Josh a Jack or a Brittany a Harriet or a Lisa that you worked with, three guys, three girls. Nice. That were just horrendous to be around or just awful. You just could not wait to see the back of them. And also that person needs to tell us what Vicki did.
Starting point is 00:40:39 Yeah. Yeah, actually, that would be good. Someone's text through saying, yeah, leases are awesome, and that is from Elisa. So you would say that, wouldn't you lease? Yeah. Let us know, if you veto the name and you've got a story as to why we'll scratch them off the list, otherwise no vetoes. So what were the names again? Kyle, Josh and Jack.
Starting point is 00:40:57 Okay. And then for the girls, we've got Brittany, Harriet, and Lisa. Love it. All right. Vito time, 0800 the Edge. It's Clint Meg and Dan. I've never met her. Bad co-worker, named.
Starting point is 00:41:10 We've got three guys, three girls. If you want to veto them now, it's the time, 0800 the edge. Carl, Josh and Jack, Brittany, Harriet and Lisa. Now, we've got a text from someone saying, not Lisa's. She stole my husband after 35 years of marriage. She may have, but we're talking co-worker edition. Yeah, unless you worked with her. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:26 That could have happened. She could have been like the boss and then she's sleep with a hood. If we were working together at the time, then, yeah, we can be our Lisa. Or if your husband and Lisa worked together. True. And they had an office work romance. Another strike against a Lisa name, morning Bethany. Hi.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Oh, dear. We thought Lisa's were good. What happened? Why doesn't she deserve to be here? Nah, I'm sorry. I only worked with one and I just, I can't, number one, stress kiddy. It couldn't, just can't cope. Stress kidding.
Starting point is 00:41:54 It's funny. Yeah. Okay. Okay, fair enough, Bethany. I suppose her stress then bleeds out into the office and onto everybody else. Yeah, she's not going to answer that. But I mean, I will say this.
Starting point is 00:42:08 There is someone that is sticking up for Lisa as well and her name, Lisa, morning Lisa. Good morning, team. How are we? I don't know if we can take your vote because you've got a bit of skin in the game, really. Are you a stress cadet? My team leader is also a Lisa. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:42:24 And just to make you sure you're not the Lisa that stole someone's husband 35 years of marriage, are you? No, definitely not. I've got my own husband, who I'm very happy with. Oh, that's nice. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:33 Okay. I find, I'm sorry, my Lisa, she's just really empathetic, amazing. We'll do anything for anyone in her team of first. So that's my team. So you're Lisa's pathetic. The other one. Unfortunately, we've got like 10 other texts from people,
Starting point is 00:42:49 so they hate all the letters. Yeah, Lisa from, obviously, they'd be very specific. Although Lisa from Pitstop, Glenfield is the best, apparently. Then there's another Lisa that sucks and got done for fraud, ripping people off. I won't say where they worked. But Lisa's look like they're definitely done. Another one wants to veto Kyle, said he shot through his own hand with a nail gun. Absolute liability on the building site.
Starting point is 00:43:13 Nightmare. Kyle's done. Just from one Kyle's act. Josh got caught stealing people's labeled lunches on security cameras just last month. Oh, but that's a minor offense, isn't it? minor at all. That's a personal attack. Really? To see that someone's prepared that got their name on it and to go,
Starting point is 00:43:31 I disrespect them so much, I'm going to eat their food. So Josh is out too. Yeah, Josh. Lisas are so hit and miss. There are some lovely ones but unfortunately there are a few bringing the Lisa name down. There's so much disdain for Lises that I think the disdain overweighs the positive. So like Jack, Brittany and Harriet, they were the other three. Did they survive?
Starting point is 00:43:48 Yeah, no one's got anything bad to say about them. This surprised me about Brittany because I've known a couple of stinkers. Really? I never met a real, oh, gosh, it's really close to 8 o'clock, guys. I know, I know, I know. I know, it's too day. I'm so nervous. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:03 Hit the spot is next. Bohemian Rhapsody. It's almost a minute long. The three of us are going to be performing it together. We'll get to easy money first. So we're going to do that first. We'll get through that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:16 And then we're going to do hit the spot, the hardest one we've ever done. Oh, my hands-saking. Jack's is the most dumb asses ever. They're normally stoned on site. Someone's just sent through a stoned on site. Stoned on site. Sorry, Jack's gone. Every name we threw out basically is bad.
Starting point is 00:44:33 Yeah, yeah. Apart from Harriet. Yeah, Harriet survived. Never met a bag. Co-worker named Harriet. Congratulations. Clint Meg and Dan. The Edge.

Starting point is 00:47:08 of people not doing a great job at things because we're about to get into hit the spot, Tony. We're taking on a big song in by him. Do we get a consolation price? Oh, yeah, I'll try, babe. Yeah, mate. Oh, yeah, okay, yeah. Um, do you want a subway voucher or do you want to go to the movies?
Starting point is 00:47:24 Yeah. God, he's even bad at answering that question. Which one? Subway voucher or movies. Yeah. Guinea. Any movie. Okay, you hold there, mate. Pike River, it's out in cinemas today. We'll send you a double pass that you and your daughter can go check it out, right?
Starting point is 00:47:42 Yeah, that is off, mate. He's bringing the bad juju before he's the spot. I know. I forgot to put Diota on today again. the one day I need to wear it. Okay. If you're new to the show, hit the spot, we sing along to a song,
Starting point is 00:47:54 pull the music down, it's still playing in the background, we sing our capella, and then we just try and bring it back when we're at the chorus and hope the song is also at the chorus. Yeah, it's the hardest one we've ever done. Please text us on 33443 with some words of support.
Starting point is 00:48:06 We do this for you guys because we know it brings so much joy and makes you so happy, so we need some encouraging. We're a bit nervous. Say stuff like, if we don't hit the spot, it's all good. As far as we all have fun.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Clint, Megan Dan Oh my gosh All the nerves in studio up through the bloody roof Hit it, hit, hit it, fucky Hit it hit the spot Whoa Hit the spot If you're a brand new to the show
Starting point is 00:48:29 I'll explain how the game works Apologies going over old ground For all you OGs But we start singing along to a song You can play this in the car If you listen to the radio At your favourite song Then just like mute the edge
Starting point is 00:48:39 The song's obviously still going You're singing along And then right of the chorus Unmute it And just see if you're perfectly still in time With your favourite artist It's actually the simplest game ever really Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Have you explained it like that? Yeah. And we were looking for a big song after we did Ray, where's my husband a couple of weeks ago? And bloody Chris threw this out. Well, let's go all in on an iconic song. And I actually think that Chris,
Starting point is 00:49:02 your suggestion could be the one. Hey, you guys, Bohemian Rhapsody. Thunderbolts and Lightning, man. Imagine hitting that. Let's lock it in, Chris, your song. Hit the spot Thursday. Chris has just texted in. Yeah, he said,
Starting point is 00:49:15 Hey, guys, sorry to suggest it, but I wouldn't have if I didn't have faith that you would hit the spot. Oh, Chris. Well, that's a lofty one. It's the longest one we've ever done by far. Overdubable the length of anyone. Yes.
Starting point is 00:49:26 And because of that, because we were like, we really wanted to do the colourful bit during Bohemian Rhapsody, we're like trying to do a minute. We're going to change the rules a little bit. And I think you'll still think that it's fair enough. Yeah, yeah. At the 27 second mark,
Starting point is 00:49:41 we're going to bring the music back up just to find out if we are too fast or too slow to put us back in. We might hit the spot even then. We're just kind of bringing our head above water, taking a little breath for the actual... Because there's still 30 more seconds to go. So this part here, you're going to hear me bring the song back up.
Starting point is 00:49:58 Okay, that's checkpoint one. Checkpoint one. We actually have two chances to hit the spot. But the first, just a little... It's the spot before the spot. Then the music goes back down, and then about 34 seconds later, I'm going to bring it up for the last time.
Starting point is 00:50:13 And if we can hit it here... And Dan, you're going to do a count in. Five, six, seven, eight, whatever it is. Okay, let's stop chatting about it. Let's just do it. We've all, we've all, not ready. We've all, we've all colour-coded lines that we've learned from yesterday for who's doing what and who's doing what together. Let me get my script up, okay.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Okay. Are we ready? Yeah, come on, man. Okay, let's go. Good one. I see a little silhouette. Ito of a man. Scaramooch!
Starting point is 00:50:49 Scaramooch! Will you do the Fandango? Thunderboats of lightning. Very, very frightening me. Galileo. Galileo. Galileo. Galileo.
Starting point is 00:50:59 Galileo, Figuero, Magnifico. I'm just a poor boy. Nobody loves me. He says, just a poor boy from a poor family sparing his life from this monstrosity. Okay, we're almost there, guys, come on. Easy come, easy go. Will you let me go?
Starting point is 00:51:16 Bismilla, no. We will not let you go. Let him go. Bismilla. We will not let you go. Bismillah. We will not let you go. Never, never, never, never, never, never, never.
Starting point is 00:51:28 Let me go. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, Mama Mia, Mama Mia, Mama Mia, let me go. Bielzebub has a devil put aside for me. For me. For me. Here we are.
Starting point is 00:51:44 Five! Five, six, seven, eight! Oh my God! That's the best one yet! Oh my God! Yes! I don't! No! Oh, my God!
Starting point is 00:52:08 Oh, my God! I know what you need to give me! Come on, you need to give it to me! I love life! Come on! We're going home! Good night, good morning, whatever, we're going home. We're showing you better than that.
Starting point is 00:52:29 Oh my God. See you guys. It is The Edge, called Mega Dam with Ash London. It's been fun, we're knocking off for the year early. Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! We're never doing it at the spot again. You can never beat it.
Starting point is 00:52:47 Thank you to Chris for your suggestion. We hated you for the last 48 hours, but we love you now. I have never... That's better than orgasm. Okay. See you, team. Nothing really matters to me. Oh, celebrations all around.
Starting point is 00:53:11 Why are we still here? I don't know. I stink. The sweat from my underarms is permeating through. I'm shaking. Oh, my head. Goose bumps. Yes, you have got goose. I would probably have goosebumps, but I laser hair removed.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Have you just tuned in? You're probably wondering why we're talking about this. We just did the hardest hit the spot ever. I hit the spot of all spots. We were singing along archipella, brought it back when we hoped we would be in time with the song, and we bloody were. I've been given our performance that happened. and live
Starting point is 00:53:44 archipela and producer Nipia has put the actual Queen's song underneath so even though we couldn't hear the song we can hear how in or out of time we were during the performance
Starting point is 00:53:54 if we want to hear it and so often when we hear these back at points we're bang on and then we'll go too slow and then we magically speed up and catch up it's like here there and everywhere but all that matters
Starting point is 00:54:05 is when it came to the end when it comes to hitting the spot were we in town the radio gods were like we're going to give it to you and the way we did it I think there will be bits of way off and then way back in. Well, I'm just going to...
Starting point is 00:54:16 Maybe. Maybe we nailed the whole thing. Imagine. The spirit of Freddie Mercury came upon us. I'll play you the last... Ew. Play you the last 35 seconds. So you're going to hear both us singing along, although we couldn't at the time,
Starting point is 00:54:30 if you just tuned in, hear the Queen track, obviously. We will not let you go. Let him go. We will not let you go. Let him go. Is Mila. We'll not let you go. We'll not let you go.
Starting point is 00:54:42 No, no, never, never, never, let me go. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Mama me, a, mama, me, and let me go. The other, the bubble has had never to sign for me, for me, for me, for me. Five, six, seven, eight. Ha! Dean got us back. You, you were the hero, did you?
Starting point is 00:55:08 Oh, look, it was a team in what it was. Your five, six, seven, they got us back on, baby. That of, like, absolute... I think pretty mercury may have come in somewhere. Helena. The king of hit the spot, saved hit the spot. That was amazing.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Helena, tell me you caught it earlier. Oh, my... I was so good. Well done, done for getting them back at the end. Oh, man. I was like you, I had nobody to yours or done. I had to, like, blast the aircon. I'm like, hey.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Oh, morning. I've never like in my whole time working in radio that is the best moment I've ever been involved with Dan's saying that he goes This is the greatest moment of my radio career Dan picked up a chair during those celebrations You guys couldn't see it obviously And through the chair across the studio
Starting point is 00:55:56 It's one of those wheelie chairs And the wheels full and off So I had to get another one When that video goes out I can't wait to see everyone's live reaction I had nearly fainted Like I was celebrating so much I had to like lean over
Starting point is 00:56:08 because I went all dizzy. Tash, what do you reckon? Done for the year? Tash. Tash. Hello? Hi. What do you reckon?
Starting point is 00:56:20 Do we retire? That was amazing. Yeah, thank you. Now, do you think we just go home for the rest of the year? That's it. We can't peeve. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:27 No, that's it. Do you guys, I mean, you should go home right now because that was just top of all of it. I mean, being, at the spot, I've done it for over a year now. And I feel like that is, we can't beat it. So I'm at the point where I like... I think you can give it a rest.
Starting point is 00:56:43 I think we rest it for a few weeks now. Not forever. Ebony... Everybody's shouting, no, no. Ebony didn't say that she texts and going, oh my God, I was singing with you. We nailed it. Together.
Starting point is 00:56:57 Hey, look, we all do this together. Honestly, I'm doing the school run, and I am driving down Parkaang Highway and just about drove across the medium barrier when we hit the time. We almost caused an accident. Okay, well, let's regroup. Well, all the texts coming through saying,
Starting point is 00:57:15 no, no, no, I'll cry. You can't stop doing it. What are we going to do for the rest of the show that people were going to be impressed by it? That today's show you me. Yeah. Well, that's the thing. I mean, Clint's got, what have you got coming up next?
Starting point is 00:57:27 The Friends phone. Oh, it's a good one, actually. It's a good one. And also, Ash Wall's off of you going, I think we're done for the year. Maybe a Christmas edition, but Hit the Spot's done. Is it done? No, I don't think it's done forever.
Starting point is 00:57:41 There's a little rest for a week or two. Clint. Megan Dan. A lot of discussion this morning as to whether hit the spot is done for the year. People are saying it's done. People are going like you can't beat it. Retire the segment. Just to show the moment, just a little 15, 20 second highlight,
Starting point is 00:57:57 if you missed it just after 8 o'clock this morning, this was us, after doing quite a long stretch of the Bohemian Rhapsody Queen song. Mama Mia, Mama Mia! Mama Mia! Let me go. As a bup has the devil put aside for me For me Here we go
Starting point is 00:58:13 Five six seven, eight Absolute scenes and soon I can't wait to see the video We're losing our minds I just want to see in a video Where Dan threw the chair across the room In celebrations Yeah sorry to the property department for that
Starting point is 00:58:30 We're going to need a new chair You know like sometimes I think you can get so jacked up on adrenaline that like you end up doing something crazy and you go, how do we make it better? Like, man Michael Jordan, greatest basketball player that ever walked the earth. Then he was like, I wonder if I could play baseball. No, no, he sucked. Then he went back
Starting point is 00:58:47 to the NBA and played for the Washington Wizards which no one remembers because he was a bull's player and he should have just left with a legacy. Or a TV show that goes on too long. Ted Laso. Which is why the UK office remains one of the greatest shows of all time. Seinfeld, same thing. Go out on a
Starting point is 00:59:03 high. That's the thing. So the friends guys won't come back and do another season. Oh, that kind of goes Matthew Perry. But I love hit the spot. It brings us so much joy every week. And I know we've peaked, but why don't we then take it back again and a few weeks to like grassroots level
Starting point is 00:59:18 and start again and reach a peak again? What did Simon Hillary do after he climbed Everest? He did a couple of like Mount Cookson ship. Did it? No, you don't know that. You're just saying stuff. You're just saying stuff. I think he would have gone, that's it.
Starting point is 00:59:30 Like I maybe hung up the pick and the boots. I went to Mount Eden. He was like, I'll do it. another little one. We've got a very special person on the line, a man that was the inspiration, if you will, for us doing Bohemian Rhapsody. Chris, hello, my friend.
Starting point is 00:59:47 Hey guys, how you doing? Are you proud of us? Are you proud of your kids? Oh, it was absolutely beautiful. I've got nothing else to say than that. I'd like to apologise to you. There were a lot of bad things behind the scenes said about you over the last 48 hours because we were very angry.
Starting point is 01:00:03 You suggested it and it was very frustrated. and then when it happened we're like oh my God Chris knew the whole time should have trusted in the process You believe in us Chris Yes Even when we can believe in this
Starting point is 01:00:15 Man your kids must do Incredible things I don't have kids We are we are We are the children He never asked Now Chris where do you think we go from here Because we've made some good points this morning
Starting point is 01:00:28 And that sometimes when you don't know When to retire You hit the peak And then you fall down the mountain and we don't want to fall down the mountain. What do you think, Chris? I'll put it this way. After Sir Edmund and Hillary climbed Everest,
Starting point is 01:00:40 he went looking for Yetis. Did he? Oh, did he? So that's sort of a similar. What do we take from that? We're doing another segment? I know, he's saying, like, you don't want to get stuck in the wilderness after that.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Right, okay. Well, you don't want to get stuck in a fantasy world after you've hit the highs. So it's up to you guys where you go from here. As it is with life, it's all we're the ones that have to make the decision, aren't we? Yeah. And how a baby's made.
Starting point is 01:01:12 I'll leave you to Google that. Okay. All right. Thanks, Chris. We appreciate you, mate. Thanks for being a part of the show. A big part of it this week. Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 01:01:22 Okay, people are saying they will boycott the show. If I have my way, hit the spot, will continue. Okay. I reckon we, at the very least, it will not be back next week. We can say that much. Negative Nancy. No, because we're doing the parade around, I think we're doing Auckland, Wellington,
Starting point is 01:01:38 crush, church and most of the major markets. On like a tour. On top of the double-decker bus, like when they win, like, the Premier League and stuff. Stacey sums it up well. She just said, keep the segment. Dan needs to hit the spot somehow. Amen, sister.
Starting point is 01:01:50 Ah, Stacy! Amen, sister. Get him. Clint Megan Dan. Stinky B. I like to pull out a scene from friends and find out if it's actually something that happened in your actual life.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Probably the most relatable TV show the world, I would say. You've been watching it for what feels like 17 years now. What season are you up to? Season four or five, I think. You'd want to be. Yeah, like Ross Leather Pants. We're ripping through it now, especially because the kids were sick last week.
Starting point is 01:02:17 So we were just like, and over the long weekend. I think we got through a whole season. Thank God. How many actual episodes of Friends are they? Some of the seasons have like 20, nearly 30 episodes, right? Yeah. And there was 10 seasons. I'm going to start slowing it down soon because I know that feeling when I got to the end of
Starting point is 01:02:32 friends and it was over. and I was like, no. And it will never come back. Yeah, and I guess I'm going to experience that again. 236 episodes, apparently. That's amazing. Wow. And it's just amazing how they can keep finding these, like,
Starting point is 01:02:43 super funny, creative moments in the same, like, coffee house and apartment. And they're all taped in front of a studio audience. There was a special set, I think it was the Warner Brothers set, where they'd film every week. And there was a few episodes they filmed without the audience because they were, like, big spoilers, and they want people sharing it. So they have a closed set for some of the big storyline end.
Starting point is 01:03:03 I never need it. That's awesome. I wonder if they did that for I got off the plane. It would have to be. Surely. Well, we're going to look at the scene where Monica decides she needs a new bed. And unfortunately, for her, they get the order wrong and deliver her a race car bed and Phoebe's not really paying much attention when they deliver it. And it ends up in Monica's room.
Starting point is 01:03:26 Whoa, somebody missed the off ramp. It's Monica's bed. What? Okay. It's a race car. So this has always been Monica's bed. Well, you're just noticing now, how self-involved are you? Okay, well, if this bed isn't new, then how come there's plastic on the mattress? Sometimes I have bad dreams.
Starting point is 01:03:54 Okay, so the question I'd like to ask of the back of that episode this morning is, um, do you have a story when it comes to bedroom support? So maybe you're on a date and whatever, and then you went into the room and you were like, what the hell is that? Oh, one night stand and he had like bunk beds. Yeah, like, yeah, sure. Or we could take calls on online shopping disasters. Okay, is it an either-all?
Starting point is 01:04:19 I mean, if you like, do you want to choose one or do you want to take stories on both? Why not both? Why not both? Okay, let's do. Bejum surprises or online shopping disasters. You know, like every time you bought something a train me you didn't want, you'd be like, oh, my sorry, my four-year-old was clicking the button. You know, whatever, mate. I will definitely get stories of people,
Starting point is 01:04:37 the stuff that was found in, like, date bedrooms. Like mattress on the floor, no sheet, with poo stain on it. Yeah, he had, like, full taxi dermy in his room, like stuff, you know, like possums. No. Or if you've... Sounds like you've been there.
Starting point is 01:04:52 Or if you've ordered, like, 10 of something, you've accidentally hit the zero too many times, and you've got a thousand. Like, I don't know, if you've got a story, give us a call, oh, 800, the edge. We've got a $50 subway voucher. We'll give to someone to sort you out for life. today. Friends phone
Starting point is 01:05:05 this morning is off the fact of Monica getting a race car bed by mistake. Love to know online shopping disaster stories or let's go bedroom surprises as well if you've ever walked in and gone, what is that? No, thank you, not for me. Like Ashley was text through saying my first date
Starting point is 01:05:21 with my now husband, he was sleeping on an airbed on our first date. Oh, oh. That's a tricky one night stand in the airbed. Can you do it on an airbed? Tricky. Well, you can do it anywhere really if you're clever enough but yeah, it's just not a good sign about where the person's at in their life if they're rocking an airbed on the mattress.
Starting point is 01:05:36 So when I said when I first went into my mate's room, he had a swing in his room, if you know what I mean. A swing. Yeah, but if people learn to that, could be a great outcome. Wow. And then we're also talking online shopping disasters. I had an auto bid on a trade-me auction for a flamingo statue for the garden.
Starting point is 01:05:54 Cute. Unique. I must have typed in my $220 auto bid wrong and paid over $2,000 for it when I got home. You and you would dispute the sale. I would divorce Adrian if he did that. Yeah, he'd back. Went home with a girl last year who had her grandmother's ashes on her bedside table.
Starting point is 01:06:11 They tipped over when we were mid-act. Can't be true. Nightmare. Went home with someone, this is for an anonymous. Went home with someone, got there and found that they had no dishes or pots or pans, no glasses, no coffee cups, literally nothing. They literally, literally just order everything and it's all disposable. I think that's more common than you think now with flatting.
Starting point is 01:06:29 That's so bad for the environment. Especially with the cost of stuff. It's just as cheap as to get takeaways. Rita, you've got an online shopping disaster story. Morning, what happened? Morning, Rita. Oh, good morning. Yeah, what happened, babe?
Starting point is 01:06:43 I was organising a work function and one of our stuff, like, speed puzzling, so we thought as a joke would do it as a work function. But I accidentally ordered 150 instead of 15 of the same puzzle on the work credit card. You get a puzzle. You get a puzzle. Wouldn't you have noticed when it came to the grand total?
Starting point is 01:07:04 And you would have been like, that's a lot of money for 15 puzzles. Well, I was still teaching my class. So, you know, and you're just quickly doing it on the side, just trying to multitask at the same time. And didn't realize until, like, literally 15 box has showed up of these tiny little puzzles. So most of the kids in the school got a puzzle. Can you remember how much the total was for 150 puzzles? It was literally like 2,200.
Starting point is 01:07:30 Oh. It wasn't cheap. And like once they're there, you can't return them, especially because they're from Timo. Was it at least on the work credit card? Was it at least on the work? Yeah. Yeah. So you didn't have to pay it out of your own pocket.
Starting point is 01:07:42 Sometimes that's worse. So now I'm not allowed to use it. Yeah, fair enough. Your rights have been taken away. I once kept my work credit card connected to my Uber account and went traveling overseas for three weeks. So while I've been gone, there's emails flying around. Who's using the Uber card in Hong Kong, the work credit card?
Starting point is 01:07:59 who's using the work? And I've been like, and then someone's like, oh, Lando's in Hong Kong at the moment. Yeah. Good on you. I've never paid that back here for you. Coral and Blue is back at participating restaurants
Starting point is 01:08:09 for a limited time. We're going to give you 50 bucks. To go spend on your next subway order, Rita, thanks to subway. Appreciate your call. Yeah, you got on your reader. Somebody else, where's it gone? What about the snow globe?
Starting point is 01:08:21 My mum ordered a beautiful snow globe ornament in honor of our late grandma passing. That's so lovely. It was large with a pretty background in the globe and, of course, snow. and when it arrived it was a 2D picture. It's a picture of snow globe. Someone else said they went home with a guy
Starting point is 01:08:37 and the surprise was they had a round waterbed. Oh gosh. Oh, water beds are cool. And they started getting hot and heavy. They started getting seasick. Oh, no. You can't stay quiet in a water bed either. Is anyone still got a water bed?
Starting point is 01:08:51 Mum and dad had one when we were kids. I tried to call that person back and they were like, oh, I'd love to tell the story in here, but my kids are in the car. Fair enough. They can't exist anymore, eh? You can still get them. They're really expensive.
Starting point is 01:09:03 I looked into one years ago. Of course you did. Yeah, that was one of those ones that spins around and stuff, eh? Mirrors. It comes up mirrors on the roof. My brother had a big circle rotating bed that would spin around when you push the butt. I had a motor. Why did he have it?
Starting point is 01:09:17 I don't know, he just had it. He's an adult movie star. He loves a deal. He loves a deal if anything's going cheap. Wow. You're a family, man. They're a strange family, eh? Yeah, really are.
Starting point is 01:09:28 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 that is.
