The Edge Breakfast - FULL SHOW who came first

Episode Date: June 30, 2026

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off July 1 with banter, tease Friday’s “every caller wins GTA VI,” and play games about Lego set piece counts and whether wild headlines are real or GTA-style.... They give away movie passes, talk Hook the Musical merch (and Guy’s impromptu garage sale), and hand out “Take the Edge Off My Life” cash to listeners for a Scout Jamboree and a surprise experience for a dad. Meg confesses she prank-changed Clint’s email signature to include “model,” callers share extreme “psycho” revenge stories, and they swap school camp core memories and relationship “alpha” debates. 01:33 GTA VI First Moves 02:13 Lego Love And Plastic Debate 03:29 More Or Less Lego Quiz 06:54 Movie Pass Winner Alice 07:44 Scandal And Wonka Reality 10:19 First Call Acoustic Engineer 14:20 Naughty 640 18:37 Hooked Musical Merch Chaos 14:16 Take The Edge Off Call 24:00 Gorilla Glue Revenge Story 28:44 Dob In A Psycho Calls 32:21 News Radar Tough Times 32:39 Cake Shelf Life Hacks 33:00 Hazmat Sweet Heist 33:19 Trump Passport Confusion 34:37 Mustang Surprise Reunion 41:21 Hook Musical Prayer 43:31 Prop Fail Onstage 45:15 Audience Embarrassment Stories 49:07 Take The Edge Call 53:18 Bills And Alpha Debate 01:01:01 School Camp Memories 01:04:22 Camp Calls And Chaos

Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a podcast from Rover. If this podcast was a person, it would be banned from family gatherings. Oh, piss off, Uncle John. This is the Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Good morning. Welcome, welcome. Clint Meaghan, it is 1.6 on your Wednesday 1st of July. Pinch and a punch. Happy Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:00:19 Meg's already pinched and punched me. She gave me a dead arm. Yeah, actually, Clint waited in the car to do it to me. Oh, Clint, now you need to stop punching women. It's really disgusting, actually. As long as you pinch them first. Yeah, but he used as an excuse of the first of month every time. He gets so excited every month that he gets to punch me.
Starting point is 00:00:35 It's outrageous, really. It's horrific, really. It started off as a little thing, then we realize that Meg really loves it. Yes, we've gone for years now. Yeah, and so then there was plans to go around to Meg's house and, like, ride at her place at, like, 4.30 in the morning so we could make sure we get it. And it got it a little out of control. I think that's called assault when you hide in someone's covered and then come out and punch them. I think actually officially around this time, guys, this is.
Starting point is 00:01:00 It's been a year since I went off on my maternity leave, isn't it? Start of July. A year? Yeah. So I've been and gone and come back and all of it. That doesn't seem that long, to be honest. It goes very fast, doesn't it when you think about life? And then, yeah, it's only Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:01:18 I know. Still two days to go and then Clint's on holiday. Damn it. Which one is this one? The cruise? Yeah. Oh, far out. How many cruises?
Starting point is 00:01:26 He's got like a special concession comes. I think it's like 10 cruises get one free. Yeah, that's what it is. like that. Yeah. Yeah. I should look into that because I'm missing out of that as a thing. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Every Caller Wins, GTA6 on Friday.
Starting point is 00:01:39 We're just talking about when you get in the game. What's the first thing you do? Carl jumped in a car, our producer, and then scrolls through all the different radio stations on offer. I was that much of a radio nerd when I was a kid. I was, like, loving all the radio stations. Yeah. That is a fun thing to do because there's different genres of music you can listen to when driving the car.
Starting point is 00:01:56 It's such a great guy. Yeah, you're going to love GTA6 because, I hear Dan, you start as a woman. So you can just drive around and you can like pick up prostitute guys, I suppose. Mm, apparently. No, obsess with dudes. It's like you're on your rock. All right.
Starting point is 00:02:11 Let's go into more or less. A different type of game. More, one that you can play indoors. I know actually all three of you boys like this game inside the room, Carl, Clint Dan, Lego. Something about Lego that boys love. Eagles, obviously, but you guys specifically. Massively, when I was a kid loved Lego. It's like, my wife loves a puzzle
Starting point is 00:02:32 and just love zoning out on like, you know, summer holidays, but Lego's so much better than puzzles. Can I say I said to a guy the other day, how impressed I was somehow, and I guess the word is impressed, that Lego have made the marketing feel so family-friendly and so, like, it's a lovable brand that, like, there's a lot of plastic. There's a lot of plastic with Lego.
Starting point is 00:02:54 And we've got in this time and age of like get rid of the plastic and Shen and T-Mil and all this plastic and put it in the bin and plastic. the worst and get wooden toys. But Lego, for some reason, is like stayed above that nobody's... Well, making sections. The plastic issue is if it's disposable plastic, right? Like, I dare...
Starting point is 00:03:09 You're not throwing away Lego. No, it can last a generation. Goldie, my daughter's playing with the Lego I used when I was a kid. Exactly, but that just shows how long it lasts forever, and now we're making it and getting more... Anyway, I'm going to guess it. I just thought it was very clever. When you have six or seven bags of Lego, though, is it coming in brown paper bags now
Starting point is 00:03:26 as opposed to plastic things? No, it's still plastic bags. But nobody... Yeah. For some rate, Lego has gone away with it. Yeah, well, it's okay. This is more, exactly, more or less. Lego piece count in famous sets.
Starting point is 00:03:37 Okay, all good, good, good. Okay, which Lego has more set pieces? NASA Apollo Saturn or the Jurassic Park T-Rex skull. Oh, both very big ones. I think they're both coming very big boxes. I would go to the Saturn though. It's got more space. There'd be more stuff to space.
Starting point is 00:03:54 Oh, London. Correct. That is correct. Okay, which Lego set has more pieces. Disney Castle from. 23 or the Titanic. Oh, Titanic. Well done, boys.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Do you know, I own at home, I still haven't made it yet. The biggest, one of the biggest ones ever, it was sent to me, the Star Wars Millennium Falcon. Well, that's the next question, Dan. Star Wars Millennium Falcon, or the Batman, Gotham City skyline. Oh, I've never seen the Gotham City skyline, but I'd have, I would hazard a guess, looking at the box that I've got in my cupboard at home, it's the Millennium Falcon. Boys, this could be a...
Starting point is 00:04:29 Okay, three. Five out of five. Ferrari, Daytona, SP3 or the Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle? Oh. How many pieces? Now, one of them's the... The Ferrari is the Technics one. I've seen it.
Starting point is 00:04:42 It's huge. But you can't... You surely can't beat Hogwarts. I know, there's smaller versions of the castle because I've seen those, so it's really tricky. You know which one you talk about it. Is it the big one? 2018.
Starting point is 00:04:51 I think it is the... Well, I don't know. I just... Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle. It's a full castle versus what? A car? Mm. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:58 Should we go the castle? Clint, guys. It's been a lot since we've had a win. Okay, this is it. The Globe or the Treehouse? Which Legosite has more pieces. The Globe or the Treehouse. I've never heard of either of them.
Starting point is 00:05:11 This is a hard one to finish. Can you give us any more information about the globe or the trees? Do you want me to show you a picture maybe? Okay, maybe, yeah. Maybe that could work. Yeah, there's too much on the line here. Okay, let me see if I can get a photo for you guys. Okay, here is the Globe.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Okay, if we give this right We'll give way a double pass So each must see movie to the first corner Someone's text through saying Lego does come in paper bags Well, I just did a Lego last weekend And it was in plastic bags So maybe some Okay, globe
Starting point is 00:05:40 That's the globe And here is the tree house I hope that's the right globe And I'm not pretty guys You'd think there'd be so many intricate parts to it That looks like a lot more Oh God going on the photo you'd definitely go
Starting point is 00:05:56 the tree house more. I'd underestimate the size of that globe though and how many pieces it might take to put a world together. Okay, come on, come we have treehouse. This is one more time. One more of the board.
Starting point is 00:06:07 There's the tree house. And boys, here's the globe. Which is the final answer? Which pieces? Treehouse locking it in. It's our first win. And I, dare I say it, I reckon a month. Okay, if you want to double pass
Starting point is 00:06:23 past the edge of musty movie, we've got a perfect score. We'll give it away. You've got a lucky scary movies, though. Evil Dead Burn unleashes the franchise. his most savage and terrifying ride to date. Says blazing onto big screens with an all new chapter of carnage
Starting point is 00:06:36 and demonic mayhem. Another little crazy Lego fact which I heard a few years ago. The biggest tire manufacturer in the world. Did you know that? Of Lego? Above Parali, above Michelin, above Dunlop, all of those.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Lego makes more tyres. Because they're so tiny. Yeah, because of all the sets that they make. Incredible way. Alice, good morning. Hello. Oh, it's dogfots. Oh, it's dogfoughts, Alice.
Starting point is 00:07:05 Indeed. How are you guys? We're bloody good. How are you doing? Have new from you in a while. I'm fantastic. I'm so excited to go and watch a horror movie. My husband hates them, so I'll probably take my daughter along.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Oh, my gosh, and she likes them? Wow. She loves them. He loves them. All her Netflix suggestions are horror movies. Oh, amazing. Well, Evil Dead Burnets in Cinema's next Thursday. We'll get a double pass out to you, Alice.
Starting point is 00:07:27 Thanks for listening. Amazing. Thanks, guys. Yeah, anyone who doesn't know Alice, she was talking about dog fights and that they were stealing dogs for her fighting rings, but obviously her accent made it sound like farts. And it was one of the greatest calls of that year. She said it's illegal dog farting.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Yeah. Oh, it made us laugh. They'd steal the dogs for the dog farts. Yeah. God I love her. Clint Megan Dan. In Scandal this morning, Blake Lively is asking for $8 million in attorney's fees and litigation costs from Justin Boldone
Starting point is 00:07:55 after his production company, sorry, following the dismissal of his defamation suit. I honestly, it could not care less about that stupid suit. I've heard so much. Who cares? I thought they'd sort of it. Yeah, same. I thought they'd like genuinely, Meg.
Starting point is 00:08:11 I thought they'd like sort of it. You want me to talk about it. Put it to bed. Yeah. So it got dismissed. So the fact is that he sued her. And then it was like, no, you can't sue her nothing. This doesn't stand in court.
Starting point is 00:08:25 So now she's like, well, I had to pay millions of dollars for something that got thrown out. I'd love to, maybe we can do the maths. I'd love to know what sort of money that would be for us. Like when you take into account Blake lively and Ryan Reynolds' network. I still think a decent amount. Eight million is a lot of money, but to them I wonder how much eight million is. Is that like us chasing someone for 400 bucks? No, no, no, they're not that rich.
Starting point is 00:08:48 I am still chasing me for that, 400 extra. And Netflix have announced the new reality show called Wonka's Golden Ticket based on Willie Wonka. Oh, that sounds fun. A whole new generation of. Real-life golden ticket holders will compete for a life-changing prize. Or say a most unfortunate... Goodbye. Marvel at the magic you remember and delight in my newest wonders beyond imagination.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Who's playing Wonka? Well, if you want to see the trailer, you can text Wonka to 3343. That's one of those... Mick doesn't know. That's one of the... Oh, sorry. All thanks to HBO Max. Stream now. I was going to say
Starting point is 00:09:30 Wonka is one of those franchise, I don't even know if it is a franchise, but it's been done so many times, hasn't it? You get to the point where you're like, hmm. Yeah, is that a reality show is an interesting one. Yeah, that's kind of cool. It's an interesting take. I wanted to say that my son's really going to love it
Starting point is 00:09:46 because we're in the middle of reading Willie Wonka, but I also don't. Oh, you're reading it? Yeah, but I just, you know, Nicholas Tex. If I say that, it'll really lean into the fact that all we do is talk about kids, parenting skills, PlayStation and Lego. Those are the four pillars of our show.
Starting point is 00:10:01 To be fair, Nicola's not wrong based on this morning show. Yeah, we have talked about that, but I'm sure that's what we usually... Yeah, to be fair, we need to ease up on the Lego chat, guys. We are talking about that. Nauty 640 coming up next. What, Clint built...
Starting point is 00:10:17 What dirty thing Clint built with some Lego. Next. Actually, it's first call on the day, so if you'd like to join us, I'll wait under the edge. We all get to Nordic 640. We're just running a little late Meg. Oh, we are too, yeah, definitely. Clint, Meg and Dan.
Starting point is 00:10:33 First call of the day. First call of the day. I've already had Shannon and Alice. And now, Aela from Toonga. Kura, Aela, how are you doing? An acoustic engineer. Hey, how you going? What's an acoustic engineer?
Starting point is 00:10:49 It sounds like a smart person job. The guitar? Let's all guess, and then Ailey can tell us who's closer? I think you go into workplaces and then you kid out. the walls and stuff so the acoustic sounds great for like recording studios and things. That's exactly what I would have guessed. No, you see guitars. Because people play guitars in those rooms.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Yeah, I think you specialize. It's similar to that, but you don't do the cutting out. You're just the person that measures are the acoustics. Oh, you go in and check it and go, this room's terrible. Meg, you're going to have to think of something else now. You went last to your problem. Okay, you make guitars. Okay. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Okay. Well, yeah, Dan and Clint, you guys are spot on. That's like part of my job, yeah, as a measuring, measuring and then telling people, like, you need to put this up the acoustic treatment. You're saying, Meg, what an idiot. She doesn't, when was the last of you made a guitar, Haylor? I wish it was, I wish it was. I mean, I agreed with the boys. I had to come up with something. She was like, I would have guessed that as well.
Starting point is 00:11:48 I didn't move on. I think as a kid, I was like, oh, that would be fun. Yeah. Out of interest, Ala, what makes a good acoustic room? A good balance of some absorbative treatment and then some reflective areas so you don't want it to be too dead and then you don't want it to be too much of a bathroom kind of sound
Starting point is 00:12:08 Ayla I would hate for you to be sitting on a deck with a drinking your hands sitting next to our producer Carl because he would ask you four million questions I knew it! I knew it! Last time Ayla was on the fire I had like a five-minute conversation with her all about acoustics I love. He's an audio file.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Yeah. Carl's also found a special song for you. What's this song? So, oh, she's a singer songwriter. Oh, this is your song? Yeah. Oh, you've loaded some of Aela's actual song. Yeah, from Spotify.
Starting point is 00:12:40 She's got a song on Spotify. Oh, shut up. Okay, listen. I will grow stronger. You know the acoustics of the song are brilliant. Oh, that's nice. She would have been fussy, eh? Aila when she's going around.
Starting point is 00:13:11 She's like, no, I'm not recording in here. She's got a good ear. Yeah. It's called it nuance. Is that right? Yeah, that's the EP, and then that single is called Thrills. Thrills.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Oh, you talented little thing, eh? Yeah. Well done. I beat your parents every time they're like chatting with someone. They'll be at the bank and they'll be like, oh, I was speaking of music. My daughter actually has a musical spot.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Yeah. Oh, cute. Good on, Dad. Yeah, all good on, yeah. It's so nice. My mum used to work at New Zealand Post and she'd tell everyone that came in that I was on the radio when I started.
Starting point is 00:13:44 I'd be like, mate, I just want to deposit the $30. Yeah, yeah. I don't even know your son. We don't even listen to the edge. I just want a credit card, please. All right, Aela. If you hold there, we'll sort you out with a double password, a musty movie.
Starting point is 00:13:57 Thanks for listening to the show. Thanks, Aela. Awesome. Thanks having a lot. Thanks, mate. Nice name, Aela as well, isn't it? Lovely. Sort of over and done within two syllables. It's cute, it's nice.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Works as a pop star. Dance work as a pop star. Yeah, Aola Gold. Aela gold. Is that an actual real name? Actually, it does sound stage namey. I don't know. She's hung up.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Thanks. She has more success and she's become Zala Platinum. All right, coming home next, Nauty 640. Meg said she's got something to come clean about that she's became secret for how many weeks? Only about a week and a half, maybe two at a half. Oh, God, you're not pregnant again, are you? No, I'm not pregnant again. Oh, good, because we can't do another maternity leave.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Meg and Dan. Meg's been a naughty girl. supposedly, and she's been a little prankster and keeping a secret from the team. I thought the prank would last a few minutes and it's gone on for a couple of weeks, so I have to confess. Oh, no, what she does? You know, a prank's only funny if the person you're pranking finds it funny. Yeah, and Clint can't take a joke, Meg, you know this.
Starting point is 00:15:01 I know, and what I'm worried about is because it's been so long, and I forgot I did it, and I remember it, and I was like, oh my God, I haven't told him I did that. It's funny, I remember. Like when you tell, like, your mate something and you mean to say just jokes, but you forget, and then you realise that you never did tell them that you were kidding. Yeah, I know what the prank is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:19 And I reckon just take it to your grave. It's mild, but it's also, I don't know if he's going to love it. Well, is it actually about me? Oh, God. Oh, cool. Clint, Megan Dan. It's time to get naughty at 640. I'm not very good of being naughty, I don't think.
Starting point is 00:15:35 That's not what I've heard. The guilt eats me. In different aspects. I'm not very good at being. doing pranks because I have felt guilty. Okay, where are you the best at being naughty? So the other week
Starting point is 00:15:49 You're pathetic. You really are a pathetic little man, are you? No, maybe it's like... The other week... On April Fool's Day? We have recently... We have recently started doing something really stupid, which I don't like, because it makes you feel nervous
Starting point is 00:16:02 every time you leave the room where if somebody leaves their laptop open, we do something. It used to happen back in the day, like 2007 on Facebook. but now we'll be doing it with each other's emails and most of the time somebody comes back in just as you're sending an email to the boss or writing something and it gets undone
Starting point is 00:16:17 and the prank is over. Yeah because we spent too long trying to craft the prank that... Yeah, and I'm a terrible typer so it takes me ages to type something out. So Clint left his computer open a couple of weeks ago and I changed something and did something and then I
Starting point is 00:16:33 forgot about it. And I walked in on it and went cancel and it all and it said save changes and I went, nah. No, no, no, no, no. It was all locked in and done. I walked away. Then something happened. I forgot all about it.
Starting point is 00:16:47 And then I saw on your emails when you sent me something yesterday that your signature still says, Clint Randall. Oh, no. Announcer, presenter. Yeah, yeah. Model. Brilliant.
Starting point is 00:17:02 Now it's subtle enough that people would go, oh, that's interesting that he's wrote that. It's not crazy. And it's not out of the realms of something he would say. So you don't seem too upset about it, Clint. Wow.
Starting point is 00:17:13 Which is, well, you're not really a model, mate. Announce a. Oh God, he's like, he's keeping, he's gonna keep it. He's gotta keep it. It is a bit gross, but still, I mean, oh my God, honestly. You did one, like, shoot for Remix magazine two years ago. And you said I looked phenomenal in that.
Starting point is 00:17:32 You did look phenomenal, yeah, you should be a model, really. We went to that shoot, didn't we? It's the only time I wore a $40,000 watch. And then they had a lady there who watched me the whole time with a pair of gloves on like I was going to do a runner. I saw that,
Starting point is 00:17:44 I remember that. Maybe Clint did realize that I changed his signature as I'll just leave it. So for two weeks we'll be thinking you're signing every email. Clint Randall, announcer, presenter, model.
Starting point is 00:17:55 That's so embarrassing. You know what I should have done? I should go back in and change it, put it in quotes, and then put dash Meg Mansel. Like she said it about me because technically that's true. Oh, God, I don't know what's more awkward,
Starting point is 00:18:07 to be honest. I thought it'd be embarrassed. about it, but you honestly don't mind. He's even considering keeping it. Guys, there are worse things going on in the world than people thinking I'm a model. This is backfied me. Oh, God. He's Teflod.
Starting point is 00:18:25 He wouldn't be having the same conversation if you'd done this to me. Put it that way. Wow. I'll get around to change in it. I don't think he knows. Harry Stiles on the edge, Clint Megan Dan. Oh, my gosh. Meg and I were just talking on the way into work this morning.
Starting point is 00:18:43 It seems that her husband... Did you sleep over again, Meg? Yeah, yeah, of course, yeah. Her husband may have overestimated the popularity of people wanting t-shirts. And tote bags. And tote bags with Hook the musical printed on them. Obviously, we had our musical on Monday night. And this was Carl actually catching up with Guy on the night regarding the teas.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Guy, I'm just looking at the merch table here. The actual merch, like the tote bags. Look great. There was t-shirts as well, were there? Yeah, t-shirts. They are flying off the rack. But there's some other stuff here as well that I'm seeing that wasn't really on the merch. You don't know who's going to come to these events. You know, if somebody wants to pick up a McKita 40-volt brushless,
Starting point is 00:19:23 rotary hammer drill, valued at 800. I'm selling it for 500. So that's a brand new. And also an outdoor cinema bundle. Yeah, so you can buy that for 100. And is this stuff from your home? Like, is this from your shed? Yeah, stuff that Meg, they wanted me to put it on Facebook marketplace,
Starting point is 00:19:35 and I keep forgetting. So I thought I'd bring it. Yeah, so I'm... I found that out when I was, we were waiting to do our podcast first, the opener, and I heard somebody go, guys selling like an outdoor cinema. And I said, what was that? Say, what did you just say? And, yeah, sure enough, he had a whole garage sale with things.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Yeah, it was selling like crockery and stuff, wasn't he? Like plates and cut. No, no takers on the drill? Yeah. No, no, no takers on the drill. Apparently there was one guy that was kind of interested, but then he walked away. I think that was producer, car. Oh, bugger.
Starting point is 00:20:04 Yeah, yeah. I was keen for the drill, but I'll give you a 60 for the outdoor cinema thing. now. I'll take that. Well, he's desperate now. Apparently it didn't sell. Okay. Nine T-shirts left as well, by the way. You can have the outdoor cinema for six there, but you also have to buy the 19-10 shirts.
Starting point is 00:20:19 You'd buy the nine T-shirts and all the tote bags. I actually bought three tote bags. Wow. Three? Who needs three tote bags? Oh, yeah, I got some for the daycare teachers. What about the power drill? Because it was 500 bucks. He must be a bit more desperate now. Is there anyone that's willing to give a highest offer on 33-4-3?
Starting point is 00:20:37 Yeah. It's whatever you described it. What is it, a Makita? McKita. Yeah, see, if you were in their, what is it, ecosystem, because they all have their own ecosystems, don't they? The batteries. Somebody's sex and saying,
Starting point is 00:20:49 I sent Guy on Instagram message about the T-shirts, he didn't reply. Guy, I'm going to say, don't worry, he's an terrible marker. He's been a nightmare. He's so busy, though, with... Oh, you're saying that stay-at-home parents, I'm busy? Well, once, you know, your daughter gets to Kendi,
Starting point is 00:21:03 then he'd probably... When my wife was on Matt leave, he did say, how's your holiday going to her? That went down really well, was that? Yeah, yeah. No, he's doing the real work at all. He doesn't even have time to message people back about T-shirts. He's just been working on his tan, as he?
Starting point is 00:21:19 Yeah, so you may find we've got a few giveaways of T-shirts. We've got to do it sooner rather than later because it'll hit different, I think, when we're giving those away in November. And obviously, if you're in the market for a power drill, get in touch. Yeah, cool. All right, take the edge off my life. If you need some cash for something, let us know what it is by texting Edge to 33-4.3. We could call you back next.
Starting point is 00:21:39 We'll do it in 90 seconds. So answer that unknown number because it could be us. Clint, Megan Dan. Let's go. Here we go. If we call you to reward you with cash because you ask for it, just make sure you answer will take the edge off my life. Otherwise, it'll go back into the prize pool and somebody else will win it.
Starting point is 00:21:57 All right, I've got the number locked in now. Okay, they need to answer to take the edge off my life. Duck it in seven, have me recently. Take the edge off my life. Yeah, it's how you doing, Carmen? Well, how are you? Good morning. What do you need money for this morning?
Starting point is 00:22:19 My little boy, well, he's not little, he's 10. He's got a scout jamboree at the end of the year. That is attending. They still do that. That's so cool. How are the expensive. I know every three years. But, oh my gosh, when I saw the price of it, I just about died.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Oh, my goodness. 250 bucks to go towards that. My brother did scouts jamboree, and that would have been back in the 90s. It's cool to hear they're still doing it. Yeah. What is it? Yeah. What is the Scouts, Jambo?
Starting point is 00:22:49 All the Scouts, actually from around the world, every three years, come to either, I think they've gone in Australia or New Zealand. There's actually one in Portugal coming up in 2028. Oh, that's not bad if they only want 250. Oh, yeah, right. That's about 20K. And yeah, and they like just do activities.
Starting point is 00:23:11 it's 10 days, camping, all these activities. And yeah. And they're just all jamboree together. Yeah. Yeah. A bit of a jamboree. Yeah. A little bit of a jamboree.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Can an adult enjoy? Oh, well, maybe. I know. I don't know. Do you want to be with like thousands of kids? Probably not actually. Sounds like a nightmare. Dad, go send any kid that's not his.
Starting point is 00:23:34 It wouldn't be your thing. All right. Come, and $250. So you can send a son, Austin, to the 2026, Jamboree, and just take that off. your shoulders and forget about it. All covered. You guys are amazing. Thank you so, so much. I appreciate that.
Starting point is 00:23:48 You know, that does sound like a nightmare. I'll just jamboree by myself. Yeah, whatever that means. All right, back again at 8 o'clock and take the edge off my life. Glad if you haven't registered Dick's Edge to 334.3. Okay. Next on the show, God. When I saw the headline, I had to dig a little deeper because I was like, that cannot be true. A woman would not have done that when she found out her partner cheated on her. Oh, yeah, no, this is one of the more psycho things, I must say.
Starting point is 00:24:17 I don't think the punishment fits the crime. It's the edge. Clint Megan Dan. We go again. It'll be the biggest moment of the year. This Friday, if you get on air with Clint Meg and Dan, your win. Every caller wins.
Starting point is 00:24:33 GTA 6 is coming. Only on the edge. Yeah, so if you get through, every caller wins. Carly will be stressed. only our producer. He gets stressed on those days. Sometimes he gets an extra phone op. You know, the first time he lost all his hair was every caller wins.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Oh, really? Is it a useful? What happened? Yeah, yeah, every call. Yeah, and then they were just sort of fell out of stress. All the follicles went. Oh, this story could actually likely come out of GTA. It sounds like it's not real. And I feel like there are some people starting
Starting point is 00:25:03 to talk about on the internet whether it could be or not. But apparently a Texas woman has been arrested after investigating is say she allegedly glued her husband's butt cheeks together with guerrilla glue while he slept after discovering he'd been unfaithful. She also slipped him some laxatives. Oh, and do a little bevy before he went to sleep.
Starting point is 00:25:23 He must have been in a very deep sleep because I don't know if my wife could ever slip between my butt cheeks and put some glue there and me not wake up. I think I could do that to my husband. If you've got a deep sleeper and you've got one of those cork guns and you just kind of just squeeze it. Yeah, well, I don't do that. but yeah, I think you could.
Starting point is 00:25:39 My goodness. Yeah, she's 42 years old. Tanya Washington found messages on her husband's phone that led her to believe he was having an affair, and then she applied the industrial adhesive. Industrial as well, that's going to be strong, isn't it? I mean, gorilla in the name, like gorilla glue. It does make it seem like it'd be very hard to take off.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Imagine the poor doctor. The actual punishment there is not for him. Obviously, it's horrible that he's having to have laxatives, and then there's a butt cheeks are glued together. But the real punishment is the, poor doctor that's having to pull them apart with the laxatives already taking effect, you know what I mean? It'd end up being a nurse's job probably, that
Starting point is 00:26:16 delegator, poor nurse. When I was looking into the story, it looks like there's even a guy, there's somebody who tried to do this to himself to see what would happen. So that's like, the most male, well, yeah, who guess if it was a guy or a girl, somebody put superglow in their bum
Starting point is 00:26:32 and then took laxatives as an experiment. It's very jack-ar's like, isn't it? Yeah. You don't see a group of girls doing jackass films. I wouldn't be willing to help them if I was at a hospital and they turned up. If they'd done that to themselves, I'd go...
Starting point is 00:26:43 That's why you're not a nurse or a doctor because you don't get to choose. You're on your own. Get out of my hospital, I'd say? You don't get to choose, unfortunately. Do you want to take some calls for dobb in a psycho? Yeah, maybe. Could you dobbin yourself? Yeah, it doesn't necessarily need to be off the back of cheating.
Starting point is 00:27:00 But just maybe you dated someone who's a real psycho, you worked with someone who's a real psycho. Oh my God, check this. One time at work, an ex-employee did what? You could dobbin yourself. Like if your husband cheated on you and you burnt all their clothes or something, you look back and you look back and like, that is a psycho thing to have done. Also, Rod says you'd never get a full seal, I don't reckon.
Starting point is 00:27:20 Rod's thought about it. Yeah, he's like, I don't know. I feel like I could have. You're probably right though, Rod, actually. It's not going to be airtight, definitely. Yeah, I guess the point is that it just goes everywhere and, yeah, I don't know if the punishment fits the crime. I mean, being cheated on is terrible, but supergluing or gorilla gluing someone's cheeks together with laxative.
Starting point is 00:27:38 It does seem inconvenient. You're definitely taking a day off. Yeah, yeah. All right, Dobby and the Psycho, who's that person that used to be in your life? You're like, oh my God. Tanya? Let me tell you about her. Yikes.
Starting point is 00:27:50 Yeah, I'm not turning up to work if I say Hannah super glued my butt together, guys. Sorry. Sorry to Tanya, so I just picked a random name. Yeah. Tah, kind of fits. It's the edge. A story you'd think would be straight out of a GTA 6. Hit game, by the way, every call it wins.
Starting point is 00:28:09 You get on here Friday, and you'll be getting your sweet little hands on it. Hell yeah. The internet's sort of divided on how true it must be, because it just seems too crazy to be true that a woman would glue, gorilla glue her partner's butt cheeks together, right after she had secretly given him laxatives after finding out he was being unfaithful. Is that the order?
Starting point is 00:28:28 She did the superglowing, then the laxatives, or laxatives first, then super glue it? I'd imagine you'd do the laxative first. They go to sleep, then you glue them up. Right. Okay. Wouldn't you? I'd go like a second if we're logistically talking about.
Starting point is 00:28:39 No, but surely you wake up and your cheeks are glued together and then you go, by the way, drink this? True, true. Right, no, you are right, Clinton. All right, we've got a few texts and a few calls coming in. Some that want to be on the voice disguiser. Let's go to Rebecca on the voice disguiser. Morning.
Starting point is 00:28:55 Fake name, isn't it? Yes. Good morning. Okay, you are in disguise. We're talking about Dob and a psycho. You sound sinister. Who's the cycle? Yeah, yeah, it is me.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Oh. What did you do? I am Rosico. I found out my ex was cheating on me, so I slept with his best friend and his dad. That'll do it. His best friend's dad or his dad? No, both. Both of them?
Starting point is 00:29:19 Both. So wait, so. In the same time? The best friend's also in on this, really, aren't they? And the dad. Yeah, true. Wait, did the dad know that you had been dating his son? Yeah, yeah, we were dating for a while.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Oh my God, I'm more angry at them than I am. You? How do you, I mean, it's so easy, isn't it for you girls? Like, we couldn't do that. We'd be like, right, she'd cheat on me. I'm going to sleep with her mum. And mum's like, piss off. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:45 Wow. Yeah, well, I mean, the relationship was already strained, so I was like, oh, you're going to call me a stepmom and then. Right. Out of interest, who was better in bed, the dad or the son? The dad. And how old are the hard? It's the best mate as well, right? So who came first?
Starting point is 00:30:03 The best maid or the dad? Am I not to say that on the radio? You know, she doesn't know. She means which one did you sleep with first? That's Megan. I knew what you meant. It was poor, poor choice of words. No, it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:30:17 I never thought that that's what I was asking. Rebecca. Which one did you sleep with first? It was the dad. Sleep with the dad. And how hard did you have to try? Like, did you have to seduce the dad like three or four times? And on the fifth time he finally caved?
Starting point is 00:30:36 No, no, no. It was just the eyes. The eyes of the barbecue. The eyes, all you had to do for the dad to sleep with you is give him the eyes. I'm not... Wow, wow, wow.
Starting point is 00:30:50 There must have been feelings there before. You don't just give someone the eyes and it happens straight away. I can't anyway. I'm with Sacey Caps. How does this even happen? Anyway, he found out and he would have been livid, I suppose. Yeah, well, I sent it to him like six months later.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Sent it to him? Send him to him, text or send him picks? Yeah. Send him back. Rebecca! My goodness me, you are. I mean, that would have been sweet revenge. Wait, do you look back now, Rebecca, and go, who was that girl?
Starting point is 00:31:21 Are you like, no, no, that's me? That's what I do. Oh, I don't even know what 20-year-old Becky was thinking to be fair. Right, okay, so it was a long time ago. You know, it popped off. Oh, and dad's with his son's 20-year-old ex. Honestly, I'm more mad at him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Did the relationship end up going on with either of them? either of them or is it just a one and no no no no no absolutely and i wonder if him and his uh best mate it's all best mates and oh man yeah yeah not my problem now in the no not your problem not your problem it feels like any story we take after this will pale in comparison to i know i also cannot believe she thought i asked her that question which is so outrageous we should have gone to her last to be honest i think we just we just end there we just there's nothing we can i'm going to think about that for a long time Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:11 I mean, man, honestly, in the moment, though, would have felt good for her. We'll waste them one, I guess. But in terms of revenge, Dad's gross. Incredible. Can we all admit Dad's gross? Dad's gross. Dad's gross. Clint, Meg and Dan.
Starting point is 00:32:23 Oh, my gosh. Times must be getting tough. A few stories of chuck on your radar for Wednesday, 1st of July. There's a mask burglar that police are looking for. In Napier, who broke into a cake store and stole over thousands of dollars worth of sweets. What would you do with a lot of cake? Yeah, there's a very limited amount of time to move the stock. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:32:45 So you've got, I'd say, a window of about three days before it starts getting dry. Cake goes dry quickly. It does. You can freeze it, though. You can freeze good cake and just wrap it up and then you can just, if you freeze it in little slice that you can defrost a nice couple of pieces with a cup of tea.
Starting point is 00:32:58 And you're selling it on trade meat? Like, what are you doing with the cake? The frozen cake even then. Put it in the tea freeze. So he's wearing almost like a full... What are those suits that everyone used to wear during COVID? like a P-B. A hazmat.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Yeah, like that with the mask and all the rest and all the rest of trying to avoid the cameras in store while he's taking between one and $2,000
Starting point is 00:33:17 worth of sweets. And he doesn't want to get germs on the cake, obviously. He's wanted to resell that stuff. Potentially, yeah. Speaking of stupid people, Donald Trump,
Starting point is 00:33:24 he has launched some brand new passports over in America, which include his face on the inside of the passport. So if you're an American citizen, you can get a brand new passport.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Right. But there's an issue with what he's put on the inside. This lady explains. Donald Dump posted the USA's new passport, which says, welcome, but be good, President DJT. For those that don't know how passports work, you need one to leave the country.
Starting point is 00:33:54 He's so stupid, you guys. How is this real life? So essentially, these get issued to people that are already American citizens. So say, for instance, you're American Meg, you apply for a new passport because your last one expired. You get one of these new ones. It's got a photo on the inside of Donald Trump with Don Trump
Starting point is 00:34:11 pointing at you going, welcome, but be good. But you already live here. You already live here. And you're going to use your passport to go to other countries. So he would argue he could argue he's welcoming people into America. But if you're coming into America, then you obviously don't. You aren't American, so you don't have an American passport. You have a passport from your country.
Starting point is 00:34:31 I think he's thinking it maybe is the visas. He's got them mistaken. So bizarre. That's where his priorities are with everything that's happening. He wouldn't care, Teflon. No, he doesn't care at all. And some good news as well. I've just in an article, you can text the word S-O-N-Sund, 3-3-4-3.
Starting point is 00:34:48 A man called Daniel Allen bought a 1969 Mustang. Nice. Yeah? It was his favourite car. He bought it after returning from the Vietnam Warms, and then he had a son, and then he had another son, then he had another son and another son. He had six sons. And as the family grew, he realised he had to sell his dream car.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Getting rid of the Mustang. I know where it feels I had to sell my Evo 5 when I got married to pay for the wedding. But apparently has spoken about that car like every day to his sons as grown up. And yes, you can see where it's going. The boys brought back the car. The same one? The same car. So if you want to see his reaction, you can text the word S-O-N to 3343.
Starting point is 00:35:28 It's just happened. Does he cry? Because old people cry and he checks me. He doesn't believe it for a long time. He's at a car show and he's walking along. he sees that and the audio isn't great this way I haven't got it for you it's kind of um it's more a visual video and he sees and he's talking about oh where are the keys
Starting point is 00:35:44 and then he does get handed the keys and then he gets very overwhelmed because he doesn't actually he goes what are you saying what do you mean what do you mean he doesn't really know what's happening until the boys confirmed that it is um now his car again bless him does that mean maybe my wife might buy me an Evo 5 one day or one of your kids probably has to no I sold it for her because she wanted the dream wedding right yeah so I mean, an Ivo
Starting point is 00:36:06 Hard to find now. They gave it to him for Father's Day, which is nice. Yeah. Yeah, he said, I shot off the camera, but I wish I continue filming. So it's one of those things is actually quite nice that they didn't do it to be like, let's go viral on the internet. If that makes sense, you know, there's a...
Starting point is 00:36:20 It's a cool moment we want to watch with our real eyes rather than through a camera. Exactly, not great audio, not the greatest cut, but at least you know what happened. I kind of hope your wife gets you the Evo because, God, you'd look desperate driving around around one of them now in your 40s. Oh, God, imagine that.
Starting point is 00:36:33 It is a definition of. of a midlife crisis. He had to have his arm out the window, dead fishing thinking he looks cool. Blow off valve. Clint Meg and Dan. Let's go. We go again.
Starting point is 00:36:44 It'll be the biggest moment of the year. This Friday, if you get on air with Clint Meg and Dan, you'll win. Every caller wins. GTA 6 is coming. Only on the edge. It's already had $4 billion worth of pre-sales, a record for any game ever.
Starting point is 00:37:01 And let's not forget, Meg, the gaming industry. is bigger than the music and movie industry put together. Absolutely true. Crazy a. Absolutely. So I've done a little game for you boys. I think if you know GTA pretty well,
Starting point is 00:37:15 this will be really easy for you, but there might be some, you know, that I don't know so well. Is it a GTA headline or a real headline that I found from news? Love this. MPC or real person? Yeah, absolutely. Let's start off with which headline is real? A.
Starting point is 00:37:30 Florida man arrested after attempting to rob a store with a live alligator. or B, Mansu's fast food chain after burger made him too patriotic. I think the alligator rings a bell for GTA. Wait, wait. Is that the real? Are we guessing the real one? Or is that what happened in the game? Rob's the bank with an alligator.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Florida, they do the craziest stuff. We did say Florida Man. Remember those that Florida Man challenge? Yeah, it's a different city in the game. So let's go. Florida maybe is real. Okay, that's... Yes, a man in Florida did a try and rob a bag.
Starting point is 00:38:04 with a live alligator. I feel like that's just as menacing to him as it is to the person behind acting, actually more so because he's holding it. What a nightmare. Okay. How do you carry the cash when you're holding the alligator? Has you not heard of a gun? That's so crazy.
Starting point is 00:38:19 So city launches initiative encouraging residents to report suspicious pigeons. Is that real? Or from GTA? Or scientists warn energy drinks that may be making people too productive. Which one's real? This is harder than I thought it would be. I don't recall any of these from GTA, either of these two. I feel like an idiot if I say the pigeon one's real.
Starting point is 00:38:45 It seems like the weirdest one though. Would she make that up? Should we go pigeon real? Okay. Come on, Clint. Yeah, that's a real good line. What did they do again? City launched an initiative and garage residents to report suspicious pigeons.
Starting point is 00:38:59 That is true. I've always thought they're suspicious. Okay. Um, train apologized. Sorry, train system apologises for departing 20 seconds early, or public transport apologises after train arrives exactly on time. One of them's real, one of them's fake. I reckon it's the exactly on time is real.
Starting point is 00:39:24 It's something that would happen, I'd imagine. Train apologises for just parting 20 seconds early, or public transport apologises after train arrives on time. Yeah, dances on time. So that's real? Yeah. Incorrect. Oh, bugger.
Starting point is 00:39:36 No, no. The real one was the Japanese train system in Japan. Apologised for departing 20 seconds early. Oh, yeah. If I said in Japan, you guys would have got it. Yeah, work over there. Okay, number four, billionaire launches campaign to replace public libraries with luxury parking.
Starting point is 00:39:54 Is that real from GTA? Or billionaire offers women $100,000 to have his baby in order to create the next generation of genius? Which one's real? Which one really happened? The car park? The car park, I think, is real. Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Incorrect, that was from GTA. There was a real man. I believe in Russia, who offered a woman to create a genius with him. Okay, we can see a hundred grand. One more question. But then also, wouldn't you then, if you now have his baby, aren't you, are pre-nups. He's going to say you'd be entitled to it half as well.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Final one, which one is real. Police recover stolen excavator after thief used it to buy beer at a drive-through. Or police warn residents not to attempt to attempt. bank robberies during lunch breaks due to increased traffic. I think if someone's taken a digger through a drive-thor. That's worth there, yeah. So that's real?
Starting point is 00:40:44 I think so. I think so. Oh, God, we passed. Yeah, yeah. There was, indeed, a recovered excavator after somebody tried to use it to buy beer. God, you did a lot of research there, to get those questions. And that digger thing, I apologise for that.
Starting point is 00:41:00 I don't think you should have brought it up, okay? He doesn't say Carl, but yeah, no. He does love a digger. Careful, producer. Because when we see her stories like that, we'd end up getting a producer to try it. Remember we strapped Chang to the front of a car and took him through a car wash?
Starting point is 00:41:11 That's scary. Bitter it, let's do it again. That car wash isn't there anymore because of that. I think they closed down. Yeah, we've gotten trouble for that one. We'll be doing that again. So remember this Friday, every call the wins. Grand Theft Auto 6.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Clint, Megan Dan. Has the adrenaline worn off from Monday night, hook the musical? Yes. You know what? I keep waking up at night going, oh God, we've got that show to do. And then I go,
Starting point is 00:41:34 now it's done it's done it's done forever in the bin spend about or just over a month going through ways to try and turn
Starting point is 00:41:41 Dan's hook the musical they wrote at the age of 15 to reality and to perform on stage yeah I'm trading the video release which is out on Friday
Starting point is 00:41:49 by the way I wouldn't even watch it It has spurred me on to think that maybe I could write something even bigger you know I was thinking
Starting point is 00:41:56 I think Hook might be a one and done but there could be a new play the three of us right I'm like New Zealand's version of
Starting point is 00:42:04 Lin-Manuel Miranda. You know the guy that wrote... The guy that wrote Hamilton and stuff. Yeah, right. Yeah, he wrote that. You can do a Christmas version. Well, I was quite surprised that Dan is religious when it comes to theatre, and there is a god that he prays to before he goes out on stage.
Starting point is 00:42:19 Now, Dan, maybe you're right. The theatre god thought I was being a bit hypocritical when I joined it on the prayer. Yeah, haven't never done theatre. Theatre kids would know this prayer if you've ever been in a, like, musical theatre show, or even just a theatre show. Usually you do this before you go on stage and all the actors or the cast or the crew gather around it in a circle and do this.
Starting point is 00:42:37 Look, I've been in a few musicals and productions in my time. I've never done this before clip. Not professional stuff obviously. I only ask for two things and the theatre god did not grant either of my wishes. This is a prayer for our fellow actors. Amen. Amen.
Starting point is 00:42:52 This is a prayer for our stage. Amen. This is a prayer for the music. Amen. And this is a prayer to remember our lines. Amen. And this is a prayer to be funny. Amen.
Starting point is 00:43:03 It's a good prayer to do, Clint. This is a prayer for no wardrobe malfunction. We don't want to me. We don't want to me to slip a tit, do we? And this is a prayer that hook wouldn't spit on us as much as he has been in rehearsal. I can't promise that. So it was just before we went out backstage and walked on stage for the very first time. It was minutes before in the green room.
Starting point is 00:43:25 Yeah. So some of those things, um... They all came true. Yeah, they were good for me, I think. Yeah, for me, I was fine as well. Peter Pan has a smaller sword than hook historically. Not a euphemism. No, and so I had like a rather small wooden sword
Starting point is 00:43:43 that we were using a lot in practice and we have a sword fight hook and I. And I guess it must have weakened it. And during a scene when I wasn't having a sword fight and I was just waving it around for effect, it decided to break in half and land at the feet of a little girl who was, sitting in the audience. That's what they call a prop
Starting point is 00:44:04 failure in the industry and you don't want that as an actor. He chose the life of a pirate but I chose the right path. I, Peter Pan, can fly stood there like an idiot with my literally just holding a handle. There's no worse feeling as well because you feel naked on stage when something like that happens because you've got a plan to use that prop and then it's gone right?
Starting point is 00:44:31 Yeah, the moment you can hear it hit the ground. Yeah, and then... This is all those people laughing at your misfortune And then all I had as a backup was an even smaller grey plastic sword that I'd use for the fight scene. It was pathetic. It was very look sharp pathetic, I think. Yeah, right. It was plastic or no, yeah, flimsy.
Starting point is 00:44:53 Yeah, it wasn't good. Oh, somebody texts and saying, I thought the sword break was intentional. There you go. No, no, I just built it into the script. Absolutely. That's how professional Clint is that he managed to just push on. That's, I guess, experience of... Many mistakes on dancing with the stars.
Starting point is 00:45:10 And on air. Yeah, on air. Constantly on ear. Yeah, when you fall, always turn it into a role. Yeah, that's why he came third and eighth and all the things he's entered. Yeah. It is the worst being embarrassed in front of a live audience. Whether you're doing like a speech that hasn't gone well or you're emceeing something.
Starting point is 00:45:25 It's just, honest to God, the worst thing. You embarrass yourself in front of thousands. I remember I used to work at a bank and we're having this presentation from the new regional manager. She was like new to the job and she was in charge of the whole of like East Auckland. Yeah. And I remember she came to do this presentation about the changes she was implementing. And she must have been so nervous because she got up and vomited everywhere in front of everyone. And she never lived it down.
Starting point is 00:45:48 And I think poor woman had to leave after like three months because she just was like so embarrassed by it. She threw up. Yeah, she was like, I'm so nervous. I'm so nervous, guys. But thank you so much for having me. I remember saying it and then just chunded it all over the desk. I reckon she was actually sick and she thought those whirly tummy feelings were probably nervous. Maybe mistook it.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Again, I'm really nervous. Yeah. Okay, I wait a hundred edge, how are you embarrassed in front of an audience? Whether it's a speech or an emcee or maybe it was theatre. Yeah, maybe you just tripped up in front of everybody, you know, it could be anything. And you still don't live it down to this day. Oh, 800, the age or he texts us 3343. Clint, Megan, Dan.
Starting point is 00:46:26 We had a bit of a prop malfunction on stage with Hook the Musical when my sword just decided to snap in half mid-performance. Yeah, everyone thought it was hilarious, fun for them. soldiered on. We'd love to know the mishap or the embarrassing moment you did in front of a live audience. I do remember someone else's embarrassing mishap, Meg, when we were at a work
Starting point is 00:46:48 thing in front of a whole lot of people and somebody said, these three need no introduction, but I'll do it anyway. Please welcome to the stage. Clint, Meg and Randall. Oh, that's right. Oh God, that was so funny. That was really bad. Then Meg's name. Then my last name.
Starting point is 00:47:05 And I was like, well, obviously, we do need an introduction because you don't even know dance-tress name. And the funny thing was that person worked for this company. Yeah, and didn't pick it up. Like didn't go, oh, whoops, what have I done there?
Starting point is 00:47:16 Maybe their brain autopilited and they just didn't even realize the mistake that made. Clint McEnnell. So she thought my name was Randall. I think you were Clint and he was known as Randall to her. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:27 Anyway, I do like, I thought he had a bit of ring to it, getting mentioned twice. This is an incredible story. I was Pinocchio in a youth show, already embarrassing. During a huge dance number, I slept through backwards onto my ass.
Starting point is 00:47:39 My safety pin snapped, and I had to finish the choreography completely pantless. You wouldn't. Nightmare. Show must go on. What a show here, eh? I would never. There's no way that I would be like, cool, all good, just pantless. I feel like that's something that would happen to you, though, Meg.
Starting point is 00:47:56 Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't be. My pants were pretty big with Sme. I was worried about that. Another one, I co-hosted an award ceremony in drag. As I walked on stage for the first time that evening, I wasn't used to it and I stood on the front of the gown Yeah, I think we're about to get Jamie
Starting point is 00:48:10 Oh no, they're not picking up. Jamie! Stood on the front of the ground I tore the binding in the back and I had to hold it against me for the whole of the opening speeches. This one's minor that's come through on a text but also this is one of those things
Starting point is 00:48:25 that just repeats in your brain forever. I wave back at someone in a back stadium for about 30 seconds before realizing they were waving at the person behind me. There's nothing worse, hey? When you wave at someone thinking they're waving at, and there's the person's behind you.
Starting point is 00:48:38 It's really hard to tell when somebody, who they're looking at when it comes to a crowd like that too. And then when they see you and they're like, I'm actually, no, it's so sorry, it's the person behind you. Oh, God. No, thank you. Worst nightmare stuff. No, thank you.
Starting point is 00:48:49 Oh, see, if I can find the, uh, probably going to take so long, but it says during a serious production of Dracula, a tech glitch caused cool in the gangs celebrate to blare out. You know that celebrate good times? Oh, yeah. During a dramatic murder scene. The director just yelled, I'll turn off the takes. They could actually add to it.
Starting point is 00:49:07 That would be like, you know, for Dracula, maybe they would celebrate that. All right, take the edge off my life. If you have requested cash for something to make your life a little easier, we could be calling you with the good news. That we have it for you. You just have to answer. We'll take the edge off my life like Carmen did this morning,
Starting point is 00:49:24 at 7 o'clock, and is $250 richer this morning. Clint, Megan, Dan. Oh, my gosh. This isn't, I guess, an expense as such that's come out of nowhere, which can stress a lot of people out. And they go, can you take care of that for me? I did not have the money. Put aside for that.
Starting point is 00:49:39 This is more of a splurge, I suppose, but on behalf of somebody else, which is always nice. Yeah. Yeah, it's a really, really lovely message. And I think the person that they're doing it for would love to hear what they think about them. It's real daughter goals. Yeah, absolutely. Selfless.
Starting point is 00:50:01 Take the edge off my life. Oh, you're sitting right near the phone. Congratulations. Trinidad. I am. It would have been savage if you didn't answer. Triniti, I'm going to read out what you wrote because I think it's so lovely. You said my dad is genuinely the best person I know and in my eyes the best person to walk this earth.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Wow. I'd love to be able to give him an experience he will never forget as a way of saying thank you for all he's son for his family. So I don't want to say what the experience is. Do you think he might be listening? Yeah, he probably will be. But I've been a while I've had it in my head. I've told him, do not listen to the edge. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Okay, well, let's hope that he's not. We don't want to give a way. We don't like to make a habit of that. This is a experience that I would love to do, to be honest, Trinity. Yeah. Yeah, as soon as I saw it, I was like, oh, I'm immediately saving for that. So I've been saving for a while. Can you say why you think your dad is genuinely the best person towards the earth?
Starting point is 00:50:54 He puts everyone first. He, like, always does stuff for everybody, and he's, like, the last person that he thinks of, like himself. So I think that he deserves something where it's a trip that he loves and he's doing everything, you know, that he wants to do and putting himself first in that position. That's so lovely. Right, for a daughter to think about that. Yeah, he's my best friend.
Starting point is 00:51:20 I think this is dad goals, eh? If my daughter said that I was her best friend and she was an adult? Yeah. Oh, that's got to be the greatest. You know, like there is nothing that beats that, I don't think, in life. Then your daughter still. What about it if your son said it? I don't think any child.
Starting point is 00:51:37 I don't know a daughter, but I feel like I don't know why it would be less likely. I don't know why I think that, but for a daughter at 23 to have her best friend. Typically you'll hear people say, my mum's my best friend. But your dad, yeah. But your daughter's saying that about her dad? That's unbelievable. You've obviously clocked being a dad if that's the case, eh? Right.
Starting point is 00:51:55 Yeah, good on him. So we're not saying what you're actually doing, so we don't ruin the surprise? It's a birthday surprise. What do you guys? And dad's still listening if he's. listening because he wants to hear all the nice things that Trinity's saying about it. All right, let's say, Dad, switch off right now. I believe him, this is a good person.
Starting point is 00:52:08 Because Dan's been practicing something behind the scene. No, no, no, no. Yeah, Dan's been practicing last three minutes. Trinity. Now he doesn't get to show off you. Surprise. Okay, Trinity's dad, you've had your warning to stop ruining your surprise. You stop listening to the edge right now, please.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Go on, dad. He wants to do a V8 supercar experience. Yeah, so. In a V8. Yeah, go on. I do a V8. He could just come on now. It'll be free.
Starting point is 00:52:32 I can give them a V8 experience. Go on. You've punished us for ages. Behind the scenes. Okay, this is my impression of a V8. It's going to sound so lame now you've built it up. Brin, brim, brin, brin, brin. What do you think, Trinity?
Starting point is 00:52:53 That sounds beautiful. 300. Well, I'm taking that 300 off here now. 300 bucks. All yours, Trinity. Thank you so much. Also, most of the time, Dan, I have the sound effects. That was pretty close.
Starting point is 00:53:07 In the system, so you don't need to. But, you know, if you want it, it's cool. I can do a rotary as well. That also doubles as other stuff. I can't say that at A.A.m. though. Disgusting. Clint, Megan Dan. Yeah, a study out of the University of Boston has said
Starting point is 00:53:26 that the person who pays the bills in a relationship, and it's not the money earner. This is the interesting thing here. It's just the person who actively goes online and pays the bill. It doesn't matter whose money it is. Is the leader of that relationship and is the alpha. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:46 So you're taking care of the admin and making sure the lights down by just getting it paid. Regardless of where that money comes from and who earns more. Yeah, that's a hard one for my relationship. My husband pays the mortgage, but I pay all the other bills. So I do the gas. But would you say that the mortgage comes out automatically? I think this means like they're going online. They're doing things.
Starting point is 00:54:04 They set up the automatic payments. They do the active, like if payments change, they're the ones that sorted out. Yeah, right. They're in charge of the relationship, the main stuff. Yeah, that would be me. Oh, yeah, well, that's not a surprise. Yeah, that would be, I would be,
Starting point is 00:54:19 what is that supposed to mean? Well, I would have thought you're the alpha. Really? Yeah. Can I throw a curveball in there? Yeah. Because my wife is the same. She does everything.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Yeah. But that's because I have allowed her to do it. I've said, I've gone. I don't think you'll find. physically capable of doing that. Exactly. No, I've gone, that's not my wheelhouse. Numbers aren't my thing.
Starting point is 00:54:38 I will muck it up. I shirk that responsibility across to you. No, no, no. I shirk that responsibility. That she is very, very deeply the alpha in your relationship. That sound probably proves it. Not the sound of an alpha. Oh, look, and children if we might hear the alpha wolf say something.
Starting point is 00:55:02 Howling at the moon, there's dad. Yeah You know what And I like being Not the Alpha I like being the Oh yeah I like the alternative
Starting point is 00:55:08 The cuck I don't know What's the Being looked after Yeah Yeah And you know what She is good at it
Starting point is 00:55:16 So why You know It's like having David Beckham On the bench You wouldn't do it Would you? What about you
Starting point is 00:55:20 and Jamie? Yeah I take care of all though Like no one's getting paid If I'm not taking care of it And in fact
Starting point is 00:55:25 If something is overdue It's because They have my wife's Email address And they've Sent her multiple Reminders
Starting point is 00:55:31 And then my wife has just forwarded that email to me. And then I will take care of it. I don't think that's, I think the study's wrong because I believe the person that's the alpha in the relationship is the person that drives the car when you go on a trip together. That's not bad actually. Long distance trips especially. If you're driving on a long distance trip, I think you're definitely the alpha. Yeah, Hannah's a passenger princess. You may be paying the bills, but she's sitting in that passenger seat. Well, I'm taking both. I'm driving, paying the bills. So I'm two for two.
Starting point is 00:55:57 That's always too much alpha. Too much alpha to handle. Maybe one of them cancels the other out so now you're back as the beta. Yeah, okay, what is the one rule in your relationship that really determines who's the alpha? Maybe it isn't who pays the bills in your relationship. It's something else. Maybe you just wear the pants. Yeah, but I think there has to be a measure.
Starting point is 00:56:16 So you, like you said, if you're the person that drives the vehicle on a long distance trip, and that's what makes you the alpha in your relationship, fine. But what is that one thing where you go, no. Someone's checks through saying that they do the housework. Yeah. That's fair. The person that maybe picks up the remote control if you're watching TV. Oh, that's a
Starting point is 00:56:33 one, the one that's in control of it. Although the remote control's less of a thing now. I know. It used to be with free-to-view television. Nicole's one's not bad. She said it's who the kids say the bosses. That's good. It's who they ask when they want to snack first. You're the beta because they'll ask you first because you'll be like, yeah, sure. And then the other, the alpha will go, no, they're not having that.
Starting point is 00:56:53 And then you almost feel like a kid too because you're not in charge of your own kids. Yeah. That's a good one. It does happen to me. Always tell the truth as well, don't they? Kids will always come to me, dad, can have a packet of chips and some chocolate? I'm like, yeah, go for it. Then my wife will be on the phone and will stop her conversation.
Starting point is 00:57:06 You go, no, they're not having that. And I'm like, oh, your mum said no. And they're like, yeah, but dad, you said yes. I reckon if we ask your kids who was boss, they would say Jamie. Yeah, I know. So if we use that measure, I'm no longer the elephant. It's driving the car for me. All right, what is the measure?
Starting point is 00:57:22 Because a study says that it should be the person that's paying the bills. Are they wrong? The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. A new study. suggest that if you are the person that pays the bills, not necessarily earns the money, but takes care of the admin, make sure the lights stay on.
Starting point is 00:57:39 You are the alpha in a relationship. Do we agree? Yeah, we'll try and think of other things as well. People are messaging in. The one that books and plans a holiday, that's the alpha. I was thinking the person that maybe deals with the, you know, the neighbours, if the neighbours come around
Starting point is 00:57:53 and ask something about the house or the driveway or something, that would be my husband. That would have been me because my neighbour calls me Devon. Sometimes I walk past and she'll see George, my son, and go, hello, George. Morning, Devin. Oh, yeah. That's such beta energy.
Starting point is 00:58:06 And I just go, oh, morning. You don't correct, do it? No, I don't go, oh, my name's Dan, by the way. Why? Your name is Dan? I don't know. I just said, too far God. She's been calling me Devin for months.
Starting point is 00:58:16 All right. Katrina, what's the measure in your relationship for the alpha? Morning, Katrina. I'm sorry, is that Katrina? Yeah. Hey, babe. Sorry. Hey, um...
Starting point is 00:58:34 Oh, see, now this is interesting because I hate doing that. But my wife always says, like, if I'm going out to buy something, that's like, you know, like a bit of technology, say it's a new TV. Hannah will always say, make sure you try and talk them down. That's my worst nightmare. So, Katrina, if you guys had all gone out for brunch and then there's a pub in your ex-benny, who's calling to where are you going to eat? How are you going?
Starting point is 00:58:57 Who's your bun is calling them over and going, sort my Mrs. Breakfast out, please? 100%. He will do it for anything. If on a plane, he will make sure I've got the best seat. Wow. That's... You're dealing
Starting point is 00:59:11 with every uncomfortable conversation. Yeah, that's Alpha Energy. That is a good one, Katrina. Thank you all right. Thanks, Katrina. I read her text before. Rebecca, you think
Starting point is 00:59:20 an alpha is the what? Hi, guys. I'm thinking that the Alpha is the Purn holiday. Okay. Because I guess they're the ones that are sort of making
Starting point is 00:59:31 the final decision, right? Because a holiday can be a little bit of a debate. Yeah. Oh, we're going to Corsica? I know we're going to... It takes a lot of organizing. That's true because it's like literally
Starting point is 00:59:41 the highlight of your entire year is being planned by one person and what you do and what you don't do. That does give real alpha energy. A lot of pressure too to book a good holiday. Is that you by the way, Bex? I would say so. I feel like you've got to, if you choose the wrong hotel, everybody's going to blame you. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:59:58 And you have to have a bit of confidence, don't you? Yeah, thank you, Becca. Other things, the alpha is whoever talks to the door-to-door salespeople. Oh, that's so specific. I just ignore them. She's just asking for money. I yell from the lounge. Go away.
Starting point is 01:00:15 Somebody asks, she's texting, saying that she's driving two hours today while her male partner is riding passenger princess. She said, I don't trust him. I also pay the bills. I set up new accounts. The remote sits next to me. My partner even hands it to me.
Starting point is 01:00:31 Yes, you are very clearly. Yeah. Yeah, I think it's a person, for me, it's the person who drives, the person who does a lot of the work around the house, whether that be the housework, the cooking and stuff. I think when you have like cooking and cleaning, I don't think there should be blue jobs, pink jobs.
Starting point is 01:00:46 It's like you're both living in the house, you both run in the house, you both, you notice it, you do it. Yeah. Well, it's clear that a lot of people have different opinions on this. Well, I think you need, sounds like Devin, you need to be doing more laundry around the house. Yes, Devin. Kevin does little laundry around the house.
Starting point is 01:01:04 Hey, yeah, we really had a nerve with this yesterday when somebody wanted 500 bucks to help take the adjo. off with their kids' school camp fees. And then people started talking about what it's costing to send their kid to school camp. And we didn't really get to touch on school camp core memory. So maybe we'll do that coming up next. Because it's costing some parents a fortune this time of year because you've got to book yourself in for camps in maybe like October.
Starting point is 01:01:28 And everybody remembers school camp, whether it's a good memory or a bad memory. We had someone yesterday, win some cash for take the edge off my life, looking to pay for a school camp. Yeah. According to chat, GPT, cheapest school camp in New Zealand sits around 100 bucks, the most expensive, nearly 2,000. And the average, the typical New Zealand primary or intermediate school camp now sits around $450 to $700. Now, if you're a single parent having to pay that, I'd imagine quite tricky. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:59 Because it's all come up and you're like, oh God, I didn't realize I needed to pay 700 bucks for a school camp. Especially if you've got, like, my kids are only a year apart, so they're like year five and year six. So if you've got a couple of kids or even three kids that you're trying to find school camp fees for? Yeah, close than age as well So you have to have like a separate bank account where you just save towards school camp
Starting point is 01:02:17 And you want to do that for your kids, right? Because school camp's such a core memory Everybody remembers their school camp Whether it's for bad or for worse I went to T-pot Valley I think it's still going Teapot Valley That sounds right up your alley
Starting point is 01:02:31 And everyone else like Oh my man would have been like The most boring camp ever It was a teapot valley. There was a big maze. And there was like some sort of water slide. We played spotlight at night time. That was fun.
Starting point is 01:02:44 That's a staple A spotlight of a school camp. Did you even do the Burma Trail? Remember the Burma Trail where it's like pitch black and you have to follow a rope along? Is that a school camp thing? I remember having a rope, but it was over like a mud pit. And you had to kind of go across it and people would fall off and covered in it. Wow. Okay.
Starting point is 01:03:00 I don't hear a lot. My only cool memory from camp is because I was a bedwet until I was like 12. of my mum having to like tick the box on the permission slip saying is your child a bed wetter having to go yes and then going a plastic sheet to go out of my. You sit there and the sad thing is that you know, there'll be people like, oh, nobody will remember, but I still remember the person they wear the bed at my school camp, unfortunately. And it wasn't that not to be made fun of or anything. No, it's not.
Starting point is 01:03:25 It's just as a kid. You just remember it. Knowing that you have to go, it can be quite traumatising. Oh, so hard. And I used to get really bad homesickness. I was such a homesick kid. I had to stop doing sleepover because I had to get picked up every time I was bawling my eyes out, missing my mum and dad. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:42 And if you're listening right now and you're a bedwetter, just know that it's fine. Okay, let's normalise it. I was doing it until I was 12 and look where I am now. Doing a show with Meg Mansell. Stop. You're going to stop so that is that complete. Somebody else has done the Burma Trail and Teapot Valley. So, you know, that's good to us still going.
Starting point is 01:04:02 What's your school camp core memory? Yeah, what happened? What we've done that? I never forget that, and it might have been so long ago, but you just never forget. I feel like it's usually something to do with the parent helpers. There must have been drama that went down. I remember one of the parent helpers, like, slept with the camp leader. And it was like this big scandal at my school, and then she, like, left the school and ended up running the camp with this person.
Starting point is 01:04:22 Oh, my gosh! Yeah, it was like a full scandal. Well, Sarah, it's going to be expensive for you. You got twins. Yikes. Hi, dear. Hi, Sarah. How much is it going to cost you for the twins to go to school camp?
Starting point is 01:04:35 Oh look For the actual sea itself I was looking at about 4.50 between the two of them for the school camp for two nights three days and then not to mention the extra clothing
Starting point is 01:04:49 and equipment the cutlery the sleeping bags and the baking you always get selected for baking or fruit and no my luck I get one of each yeah what a nightmare because you have to buy like the parker I remember the park you have to buy one of those
Starting point is 01:05:05 You have to get a carabina. It's all got to be waterproof. None of this pollel of place. Don't forget to write their name in the back of the tag. Otherwise, I'll leave it there. You'll never get it back. We haven't even mentioned bedwetting yet. What was your school camp core memory?
Starting point is 01:05:21 I think the whole time I just remembered chasing around trying to hook up with irony. Who? Arony. I don't think I ever did either. Irony? Yeah. She was one of the teachers, obviously.
Starting point is 01:05:31 Yeah. Yeah. What was your core School Camp memory? God! I've already read one of the texts. Can we get her on? In fact, I think she is on the phone.
Starting point is 01:05:45 Yeah. Let's go to Car Lane. Morning Car Lane. Good morning. What happened at the school camp, Dale? We were staying at Mark of Cassford and we had to walk back down to the fair and I'd walk and go around in Tulsa.
Starting point is 01:05:59 And I was only nine and I couldn't hold it. Yeah, I did a meg. I picked my pants. You did a meg and poop your pants. Look, Palane, it's not doing a meg when you're walking on a hike. I did it one time when I was in bed. Doing a me. This is what Doing a meg is.
Starting point is 01:06:15 Doing a meg. Doing a meg. Pooing a bag. Pooing the bed. Pooing the bed. Pooing the bed. Doing a bag. Pooing a bed.
Starting point is 01:06:26 Doing a bag. How much I hate that every time we use it and play it. No, but it's a reemforces Meg that that's what doing a Meg is. Not just crapping yourself down Rangie Toto. Yeah, let's stop just saying whenever you shoot yourself that it's doing a Meg, because that's not true. It's when you're unwell in the bed. Specific, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:47 I hate that. Right, let's move on to Amy. Should I delete it? Yes. It's a catch you saw. You should have asked me to just delete it. Oh, piss off. Amy.
Starting point is 01:06:54 What happened at camp? It poured down the first night. Our tent leaked on one side. on one side, I got absolutely soaked through. Sleeping bag was completely drenched, all my gear. So I got sent home and the camp continued without me. Isn't that like dream result though? Or did you want to stay at camp?
Starting point is 01:07:15 Yeah, I wanted to stay. I loved camping as a kid. Yeah, it just sounds like that camp sucks because it was raining and stuff. You know, it wouldn't be enjoyable. Oh, that's so sad. Yeah, maybe. I mean, I don't know because I missed out. Yeah, too.
Starting point is 01:07:27 Wouldn't they just get some of the other kids similar size? Do you just chip in, give you a shirt, a pair of pants? True. Come on. That's why you bring spare clothes as well, right? All right. All right. All right.
Starting point is 01:07:35 What happened there at camp? Well, it was year five. Yeah. Big field. And then this really angry kid was throwing rocks around. And he got this massive one. And we were like little at this point. So it was a pretty big rock to me.
Starting point is 01:07:49 And he threw it. Got like my head caved in. And then blood gushing down all of my clothes. Rewaned my favorite shirt. Everyone was traumatized probably. I was traumatized. It was quite traumatic, actually. That's actually quite shocking.
Starting point is 01:08:02 incident to have happened. We can't really laugh at that at all, can we? You're assaulted with a rock. No, you can laugh. We laugh about it now. Did he get sent home? No. He was one of the angry kids that are allowed to be angry. Oh, I know one of them. Why is that? But I don't know, I don't know if there's much they can do. But I know who you, I know one of them
Starting point is 01:08:22 absolutely. They're just allowed. Everyone else has to deal with and go, oh, they're just the angry kid. Yeah, he's allowed to do that. Come on, we need to be better. He got comforted. Yeah, yeah. Different rules for him. bed. Also, Sean texts her and said, in regards to the Meg stuff, doing a Meg, didn't she also
Starting point is 01:08:38 crap herself on a walk once you talked about on here? Just a yes or no answers. And you weren't in a bed, you were actually out and about walking. Yeah, yeah. She had to just vacuum it up with a bistle, didn't she? You did not vacuum it with the whistle. In fact, I think there was another incident where she showed herself to be...
Starting point is 01:08:53 I think she... Want to hear more of Clint, Meg and Dan, but completely unfiltered. Catch the Overthinkers audio and video pod every single day on the Rover app all wherever you get your pots. Overthinkers. Rover Music, radio, podcasts.
