This is a podcast from Rover. If you've ever sent a risky text and then throw on your phone across the room, you'll fit right in here. This is the Clint Meg and Dan podcast. If you're not slightly aroused or mildly offended, are you even listening? It's the edge breakfast. Clint me and Dan with Ash London.

Morning, it is 1 to 6 on your Tuesday. Welcome to the show. I appreciate you joining us this morning. Good to be here. Oh yes. Tuesday. Love a Tuesday. Yeah, you're both looking very handsome today, Dan. You've got like a white ribbed tea with a lovely.

I want to say a navy linen blend, open shirt with some beautiful brown buttons and your hair's looking gorgeous. And I'll tell you what, matching paint shoe. Oh, fuck. Look at that. Blue on blue. There we go. She's just about swore again. That's how sexy I love.

And then Clint's got my favourite jumper on. It's the green, oversized sweater and a cap. Two very good looking boys. Now here we go, Clint. This is where we have to compliment Ash. She's given us something. Let's give her something back. I like the way you've done your hair today.

Thank you so much. I knew you'd say that because you did say you'd like to make her. I like when it gets hot in here where you get flustered and you'd take your jumper off. All right, come on. Okay, now that's just sexualising her, which I don't like. Which I'm happy to be sexualised at 39. It doesn't happen often. You're welcome.

Actually, that was quite cold and I... Nope, I won't say that. Your penis shrunk? No, no, no. Does the dick shrink or just the balls when you're cold? Okay. I don't know. I'm sorry, Dan.

Mine can't do much more shrinking, unfortunately. It's got... It disappears in the cold. I could be in the Sahara Desert and I've got shrinkage. Anyway, he's kidding. I've seen it. Whoa. So big.

Whoa. Don't talk about that night, Clint. Whoa. We'd call we would have. The beams on the edge. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. I was here.

She's gone to make a coffee, Clint. She's gone to make a coffee. Waited for the show to start. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're about to jump into our 6am throwback. Pussycat dolls, who, after Dan told me a story about Nicole Scherzinger, not as much of a fan anymore.

Well, I don't know. The Pussycat dolls, are they still a thing? I don't think they are anymore, right? They broke up. I just was told a story about Nicole Scherzinger many years ago. Oh, bring it on. I've got one too. If it's a secondhand story, how do you know it's credible?

Well, you both will know the person. I can't say on ear what her name is, but she used to work in Dubai. And as for a radio station over there that would promote big artists coming to the country and doing performances. And the Pussycat Dolls came one year. And Nicole Scherzinger, the lead singer of the Pussy Cat Dolls, lost her bags in transit, like all her baggage and stuff. And she was no happy. She was really, really angry, apparently, and got this person that I know to go and search for the bags. and so she spent the good part of basically a whole day

at the airport trying to find Nicole Scherzing as bags. She finally found them and it was a stressful day. She would have been relieved, surely. It took them up to, what's the gag there? No, Nicole would have been... He's going along with you. Oh, I see what you mean. If there's no gag, she would have been relieved

after losing her luggage and I imagine Nicole has quite a few outfits. Yeah, Nicole Scherzing, you'd think would be very thankful. She took them up to Nicole Scherzing's room. Nicole opens the door snatches the bags off her and slams it in front of her no thank you nothing

What a dog So she might have just been having a bad day But there's nowhere to treat someone is it Imagine your worst day Would you ever treat someone like that? No way Of course you wouldn't No way

And actually that would be the one good thing That's happened in your day You know thank God They found my bag Rather than it's a bad thing time vibes I know crazy aye So it's no use Like what's the use of that

Does it make you feel better as a person? Yeah And didn't Lewis Hamilton date her? He's like, I think he's a cool dude. I know. I don't know what he saw her. They were young. I'm sure once he saw her true colours.

He was like, I cannot be so scared. Because Lewis is a lovely, from what I've seen, the lovely guy. You don't hear those stories about Lewis Hamilton, that's for sure. No. Yeah, so. So anyway, Pussy Cat Dolls. Yeah, I once interviewed her after a thing, and when they had their comeback, and she had her own hotel suite to get ready in,

and all the other pussycat dolls just got ready in a communal bathroom, like on the floor, all their stuff everywhere on the ground. God, that sounds so powerful. They had a commuteral bathroom. Did she put the band together or something? Why was she on social hierarchy? But she just decided, I don't know, maybe she was told you're the lead singer.

And she'd never got over the fact that she had to share a stave with other women. The one cool thing Nicole's done is she put together one direction. Remember when they're on X Factor, she was the one that made the decision to put the boys together. Maybe that's why she's so angry because Simon Cowell got the credit for it. Maybe. Maybe. Okay, I'm on team Nicole now.

Justice for Nicole. The one amazing thing that she did, in the world thinks it was Simon. Yeah. You go on YouTube and searched Nicole Schuzen and puts together one direction. It was on my FYP this week. That's so weird that you brought it up

because I had no idea about that. You could literally just put, she's putting together the photos of the guys going now. She picks up like Liam or something. She's like, no, we got it out of the no pile. And she's like, no, he was so cute. We need to bring him back. Don't you think together they'd be so good?

She's amazing. You're absolutely right. I'm back on it. And you do wonder where those boys would be had they not picked up the photo and go, yeah, he's in. The Clint Meg and Dan podcast. Pussy Cat Dolls.

When I grew up on the year, do it is your 6am throwback. It's 10 by 6, clip me Godin with Ash, London, Nicole Scherzinger. Possibly the person that actually put together the boys' one direction,

even though Simon Cowell, who was also on the judging panel, probably got more of the credit. Take a listen. This is the moment when they're finalising the five lads. Oh, yes. Absolutely.

We liked him. I mean with him. 100%. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I was right.

Absolutely. Turn the head. Yeah, yeah. Absolutely. Because they look good together. They're the cutest boy field ever. Absolutely. I love it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The little girls are going to love him. And they're basically just standing around a table with a whole load of polaroid photos of all the contestants. And she just literally puts them together from their photos. Imagine if you were one of the guys that didn't make it and you were like still watching that clip. And your polaroid's just there in the mix. And you're that close to being in one direction. Oh, you're right.

You've been thought about that. seeing your face in that clip. Oh, I'll be angry forever. And to be fair, some of them had awful auditions. Terrible. I don't even know how they were even in the running. You watch Harry Stiles audition. Terrible.

Yeah. I wouldn't have that. But they obviously knew the potential that was there. I'm engaged in active defiance today, boys. As a 39-year-old female today, when I got ready, I did something that many would say, oh, I can't believe she's done that in 2025. Oh, no.

But I looked at everything in my wardrobe, and I said, enough's enough. Now, I'm going to come around and stand in front of you, and you're going to look at my outfit, and you're going to tell me how me, as a 39-year-old mother of one in 2025, who survived the 90s and early 2000s fashions, what is my active defiance, boys? Okay, come around here, so she's walking around. She's wearing a purple card. She's got skinny jeans on.

Skinny jeans. Oh, you have made so many felonies against fashion. I'm done. I'm done with the baggy jeans I'm done with the low-rise jeans I'm done I'm five foot two and my skinniest part is my legs

stop making me put baggy unattractive low-rise jeans on the slimmest part of my figure I can't do it anymore I can't do it anymore and every morning I look at my skinny leg jeans and I go I just want to put my skinnies on

but I can't do it because it's not fashionable anymore but today I said I'm done I'm with you, but I just couldn't lead the charge. Let's bring the tight jeans back. No, no one wants the men to bring it back because I can't see any more dicky ball outlines. That was a hard time for all of us. No, I mean for you.

For me, thank you. I love it for you, but I just can't lead the charge, but somebody needs to. You can't be like, Ash, I want to see Dad ass. Yeah, okay, I'll say that. I'll say it, I want to see Dad ass. Much better. Thank you. Dad is one beautiful ass.

Thank you so much. So, you know. I just, it's like I get ready every day in my baggy jeans or even just my my kind of like stovepipe jeans. And I go, they're fine, but I look like an umpah lumpa. You know what? I've looked at Ash. I've known Ash now for what, four or five months now?

And I've thought for that whole time you've got really thick legs until now. And now what are you there? Now what are you, now that you've seen me. No, I'm sort of like a sexual awakening of sorts. Damn. I'm like going, damn. Yeah. It's like the time that Clint watched Cameron Diaz in the mask.

Oh, yeah. And something changed from forever. Yeah. And I just want to say, women, we can take, we can just reclaim it. We don't have to wear the umpa lumpa pants. They don't suit us, most of us. Conversely, if you like them, even if they'll crap on you, live your life. If it makes you happy.

But if you're looking in the mirror every day and going, I hate these pants on me. And the only reason you're wearing them is because they're fashionable, stuff it. I've got, you know, I'm just done. I've got three pairs of skinny jeans and my drawers that are just gag into coming. out. If it's going to make you happy babe and you're going to look in the mirror and go, yep, I'm happy with that. Then I'll wear them. I thought more women love the baggy jeans

because they were comfy and they finally got to wear something that was comfy and fashionable. And for some people, great. Like, a lot of women would love that. And there are some days where I want to wear a baggy pair of jeans and feel comfortable and I'll do that. But like, sometimes I just, I want to have a figure.

I want to get the junk out. Yeah, I don't want to have, because I'm short. Don't call her stuff her junk. It's okay. I took it in a good way. So I just want to reiterate that like You can just wear whatever you want to wear And I'm reclaiming the skinny legs today Good on you and you know what It suits dead ass

That's really inappropriate Oh sorry from you it's a bit disgusting You said it before so I thought I could Yeah but like you know like Clint would you like to say something before we go Yeah I actually do I think dead ass looks great Thank you

Clint Megadden Leshull First call of the day First goal of the day Who's it going to be this morning? We've got a voucher to send you. Thanks to our show sponsor Zet. I haven't.

Has anyone had the Thai pie yet? The Thai pie? The Thai pie. I've had about three of them, yeah. It's a game changer. I'd go. I'd go, you can't beat a mince and cheese. So that's number one.

But then it's close to the butter chicken pie for me. I do love Thai flavors in a pile. I'll often get a Thai veggie pie. With some chickpeas in there maybe. Johnny, good morning. Your first caller of the day and first time caller as well. Oh, really? Yeah, he's never called before.

I am a first time caller, yeah. Oh, hold on. For the first time in forever. Hello, stranger. For the first time. Where the hell are you been, Johnny? Did you just find the show, or what? I did, yeah.

I'm on the way home from Todonga today, and just tuned in, so yeah. Welcome, my love. We're so happy that you're here. What was on in Todanga? We were just down for My girlfriend's dog was being put down Oh Oh, you're good one, ass

I'm so sorry, Johnny, so sorry to your girlfriend and her father That's tough Horrible So it's the family dog and Toronga sadly passed away How old? It was 12 A wonderful life And what was the breed, if you don't mind us asking, Johnny?

What was it? A Bichon. Bichon. Oh, that sounds like a fancy dog. What was the funeral? Like, was it just a burial? Did people say some things? The photos?

Yeah, no, we all just kind of sat in the room with them for the last moments and stuff, and it was really nice, yeah. You know, one of the most amazing things I've been ever told about is, and you guys probably know about it because you've got a dead dog, is the rainbow bridge. Yeah. And if you've never heard of the rainbow bridge,

it's one of the most beautiful things. Google and read it. Well, I'm just telling you about it. Oh, do you not offer her? No, no, the Rainbow Bridge is just a place. No, but there's a poem. Oh, I didn't know. Um, hold on, I'll find it.

Ash, we'll read it for you. Is your girlfriend in the car with you? She has, yeah. Okay. We're going to read it. Ash, she's going to read it for you. She's going to cry because she'll cry. Okay, of course I'll cry.

Hold on. It's coming. Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies, it has been a special... Wait. No. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.

There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals had been ill and old are restored to health and figure. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing. They each miss someone very special to them. And it has to be fine. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops. and looks into the distance.

His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly we begin to run. He begins to run from the group. Flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted. And when you and your special friend finally meet

we cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again, the happy kisses rain upon your face, your hands again caress the beloved head. and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart then you cross the rainbow bridge together oh my god isn't it just beautiful

see my honey girl again Johnny's like what the hell is the show sorry I'm starting off to a pretty rough morning there Johnny's like first time call her last time call her Jesus I'm being back to the rock first time I've ever. I've never done my makeup at this early in the show before today.

I did it early for some reason. You know, I thought I'd lost our cat Kimby last year and I was imagining him at the rainbow bridge and me dying. He was just up a tree, but I mean, man. Oh, cool. Well, mine and Ashes and Johnny's girlfriend's dogs are dear. So you used to have your cat.

And also cats aren't as good as dogs in cats. No, exactly. I don't even think cats wait. I don't think he's a rainbow bridge for cats. Oh, shush. Jacks had nodded the rainbow ribs. They're like, see you, suckers. They're just roaming all around the place.

They're probably turn around and see you and go, yeah, Dan's here, cool. And then just going back to doing whatever they were doing. Way to ruin a really lovely moment, okay? Hey, Johnny, hold there, my bro. We can see you out of the voucher to go spend in store a Z. We appreciate you tuning in and appreciate you more calling, mate. Thank you. Even it was the first and last time.

Thanks, Johnny. Oh, my gosh. Okay. All right. I've got makeup everywhere. I did not need that this morning. Let's get a scandal update. What's going on in the world of entertainment next?

He made us read the rainbow book poem. She's just going to tell them about it. I thought the poem rhymed from memories. Anyway. Maybe I read the wrong one. That was an interpretation of it. I think like a quarter of the way through. I was like, I don't know if this is the one I was meaning.

The Clint Migg and Dan podcast. Before I do scandal, I'm going to do a quick tarot reading for Clint, even though I don't know how to do it. Daddy woo. Okay. Oh, oh, his house is going to burn down. Oh, yes. That's a tower and people are jumping out of the windows.

Inferno. So that says, check your fire alarm tonight. Please, make sure that's working. Okay, the next one, that looks like God, and he's shining down on you from heaven. He's going to protect you from the fire if you check the fire alarms first. Okay, good.

Because he gives us the tools we need to succeed. And the final one, uh-oh, two puppies, you're getting a dog. Oh, both my kids want dogs. There you go, it's happening. And they want one each, and I was like, two dogs. I can confirm you'll be saved by the Lord from a house fire, and then you'll be getting two puppies, one for Cammer. Just make sure the puppies are out of the house when it's burning down.

Do you know when you had the one for Dan and it looked like somebody was feeding the poor and giving stuff to charity? I don't think Dan's the person giving the stuff away because one time he said this. I don't think we do it for charity. Charities. The charity is me.

And I give lots of stuff to charity. I do orphan work. I do. There's an orphanage down the road. If charities, the charity's me. I don't know. There's been so much talk lately about James Bond, who is going to succeed Daniel Craig.

I think as a show, we are all firmly on the, should we say the person's name, and hopefully we're all in agreement here. One, two, three. Idris Alba. Thank you very much. But another name has been thrown in the ring, and this time alongside his partner.

So they think of this power couple could make a James Bond debut, her doing the song for James Bond, and him potentially playing James Bond. There are a couple who recently got engaged and I've got a turn my computer screen around so you can see them. Callum Turner and Dua Leapar. Oh yeah, Callum Turner, I don't like him. You don't?

He looks a bit ugly for James Bond. No, no, no, he's got classic English good looks, the cheekbones, the alabaster skin, dark hair. I think he'd be perfect. The thing is, I think I'm sold on Idris Elba and I don't think it's... Maybe Idris doesn't even want to do it. Yeah, I was going to say, does he want it? I think it must come down to him not wanting it

Because I feel like everyone who's ever discussed this has just gone, well, of course it should be Idris. Maybe it is coming down to the fact that James Bond has always been a white man and people are like, oh, I'm going to want to mess with a thing, and I'm going to get cancelled because people get angry. But I don't feel like Edress is the kind of guy to be scared of a bit of backlash. But he just comes across like he could be a great bond. I think he's like maybe...

I agree. Like he's got a little bit of badass about him. Definitely. He's also a great actor. Yes, because you need to believe that he could kick the crap out of a guy. Like Theo James from White Lotus, he's also in contention, very sexy man

but I just don't feel like he can bash someone up, like Idris could. Could I just throw another name into the mix? Please. Tom Hardy. Now he's American. Oh no, he's British. Is he? I think he's a British. He would be perfect. I think he's too rough. Oh, no, sometimes when they do his hair, when they slick it, yeah.

Chuck him in a suit. Tom Hardy in a suit. I'm going to just got to Google that. Because he wasn't, he's been in a few movies where he whoops people's ass. Yeah. But I just think he's too much of a scallywag. Look at him, he's too cheeky. What if you got rid of the beard though and you go, you'll clean shaven?

You could clean them up, I reckon. Maybe I just, I just feel like, no, he's too much of a scaly wag in his just, he's, he's, he's, he's, he needs to be a polished English gentleman, which is why I think, um, I think Calum Turner would be good. And I also think, uh, the guy with three names, who's married to the old actress. What's his name? Who's in Angusong's in Perfect Snogging. Absolutely no idea. You'd know him. You'd know him.

Hold on. Hold on. Aaron Taylor John James. Unpopular opinion. Are we done with the whole James Bond thing anyway? Never. No. Give me a Jason Bourne over like a bloody...

I'd agree with that. Yeah, James Bond. But I think, hear me out. I think Daniel Craig's Bond is up there with Matt Damon's, Jason Bourne. I think they've whereas the older ones are a bit too much like a cocktail martini

mow-wam-wam-a-ma-ma-mah The cool thing about James Bond is whenever there's a new actor that comes into it it breathes new life into the series so I think once they have this person it's a whole new world opens up

yeah and I'd be really excited to see it They're taking the time though Girls are you are you not guilty of doing this It's a Genzi's supposedly The Most guilty of it New toxic dating trend called Shreking Oh gosh Another word that we all get to

Learn. Shrecking. That sounds like a really dodgy sex act. I hope it's not that. Girls, are you doing it? Measures, obviously. Gen Z's new toxic dating trend, shrieking. Onions have layers. Oogers have layers. Somebody would tell me.

What do you think it is? I think shrecking, I have not, I don't know as I'm guessing, is when you, as a girl, you purposefully make yourself look really ugly when you go out. so that if a guy shows interest it's because he likes you for your personality not because you're baddie That is a good option That's what I've been doing for 39 years

Deliberally Yeah I've never actually allowed myself To look to my full hotness Because I want people to take me seriously Are you shrieking now? Out of interest I just put makeup on Okay

Yeah Looking good And I will say that I wonder whether it's Sort of similar to what you're saying as I'm going to copy my idea But as girls looking for purposely looking for ugly dudes, like, and they're going on dates, hoping that they will have the Shrek inside, you know,

like a good person deep inside them. Hopefully they'll be like a prince or something. Yeah, so they're going, he's too hot, too hot, too hot. No, but Shrek never turns into a prince, does it? He just stays an ogre. But he's a nice guy on there. Once you peel back his layers. But that's not toxic.

That's a lovely thing to do is purposefully date guys that aren't hoties because there might be nice guys. Oh my God. Dan has absolutely nailed that. Have I? Good news to. ugly single guys. Girls, supposedly, Gen Z girls

specifically are more guilty of this. Girls are deliberately dating down, choosing partners they believe are less conventionally attractive or desirable in hopes that they'll be treated better because the ugly guy knows how lucky he is to be punching that he treats you like his queen.

Oh, that's where you're going wrong, Neeps. You're too attractive and handsome. Oh, thanks, Dan. You've not gone all blushy now. That is some sad. That's... Yeah, is that true? Are girls, aren't you listening?

We're like, yeah, I'll deliberately date less conventionally attractive guys because they do treat me better. This is what I will say. When I look at all my friends and who they've married and who they dated, most of them dated hotties

married normal looking dudes. You see that a lot where you... How often have seen this, Dan? Where there's like a couple, like a photo on Instagram, and you go, how the hell has he done that? Oh, 100%. But never the other way. You never go, damn.

Like, she's doing all right, dating him, looking like, you know, it's always the guy going, he must, is he loaded? Like, we're always wondering how much money he must have. Really, he's just treating her well. Hannah has one friend. Hannah has, I shouldn't say, but Hannah's got one friend. No, that's my friend, not Hannah's friend. Yeah, yeah, she's really, really ugly,

and her husband's quite handsome. And all the girls think he's handsome. But then all the girls think they can steal him away, honestly. Every girl's looking at them going, I could have him if I wanted him. Okay, maybe it's not something that, like, girls are, like, we might not get calls with girls admitting they deliberately date ugly guys. No, no one is going to call.

But do you find there's a correlation between the less attractive the guy is, the better he will treat you? Like, is that an actual thing? Or maybe do we just want calls from, like, are you in a couple that's unequally, like, attractive? Oh, yeah. Like, one of you's hotter than the other, and everyone knows it. One of you's a Shrek.

One of you's a Shrek and one of you's a Princess Fiona before she turns into an ogre. Yeah. Free ogre Fiona. Like Celer Reacher. Yeah. And do you like it that way? Oh, eight under the edge. We're talking shrekking and the new toxic dating term that G&Zs are supposedly doing.

Onions have layers. Oogers have layers. Somebody won't tell me. So it's deliberately dating down because supposedly guys that are less attractive will treat you better than those good looking goods. We just mean physically, physically speaking. Lots of feedback on this on the sex machine. I just text through. I purposely date guys who are not attractive as me

because I want to be the hot one in the relationship, but also hot guys are dickheads. I mean I did kind of find that in my 20s are the hotter the guy, the hotter they thought they were, and they treated you worse. And none says I'm hotter than my husband, get a girl, and everyone knows it. I love the feeling of him showing me off.

Oh yeah, I like that. She loves that when they go to a party or whatever and she knows she look good. It's like Mike's Mike here, I'm legitimately a three. Oh, and my wife is and eight to nine. Eight to nine. Yeah.

I've seen a photo of Mike. He's lucky he's a three. He says, I bloody love punching. I actually feel sorry for my wife. Yeah, you'd always want to be punching, wouldn't you?

Yeah, but I dated a guy hotter than me in my 20s, and many times, like, I would be at parties, and I know that girls were like, oh, like, he's fair game. I would see their faces, that they'd look at him and look at me

and be like, are you. Like, easy, like I could jump in here. I could get him off her, I wanted to. But what I've picked up just there is you said you dated a guy that was hotter than you in your 20s, is that last guy you dated that you personally think was hotter than you because you married right now.

That's different though. So you don't think you think you're the hot one in the relationship? Yeah. Well, I was, pre-kids. Interesting. Things all apart. And that's fine because I've got a great personality. I think I think we're pretty equal now though.

But I think I was hotter and now we're equal. Clint, I want to ask the same question to you? No. Jay's hotter. Really? Yeah. Okay, that surprises me that you think that. I think you guys, you are equally a cut.

Yeah, no, she's a 10, and I'm a 9. Yeah. On a bad day. If I'm not trying. If you've had a 3-10, you're a 10. Yeah. I'm kidding. Another one here.

Ugly dudes treat you way better and buy more surprise gifts from my experience. Oh. Just like, please don't leave me. Please don't leave me. I bought you something else. I think of it genuinely, and this is not me trying to be funny, someone's personality brings them up at least five points

and the opposite is true it can bring them down yes oh god you meet somebody they're so hot you get to know them and then a month later you find yourself looking at them and you're like you are the ugliest person I've ever seen because they're not a good person but girls will give guys a chance and get to know them and then find them more attractive guys really I think will give a girl that they aren't into

a chance to try and see it. That is very interesting Producer Carl? I've got like a couple of chequets of mine. We'll say they've said in the past that uglier guys are better in bed. And speaking on behalf of like ugly dudes here, you've got to be better in bed

because you've got to make up for being like, you know, a three. I don't work with ugly. All four of you, I know you'd be good in the sack. No one's doubting that, but you're all very good-looking men. You're all very good-looking man. I won't have it. I will not stand for any of my boys saying that you're ugly. It's just not true.

No, please say I'm ugly. I need a girlfriend, so that'd be nice. Nipia's going to make someone very happy. One day he will. One day he will. And Clint's going to sing him down the aisle. What song are you going to sing at Nipi's wedding? Oh, God.

And we were talking side hustles on the show yesterday, and we wondered if you had one. and wanted a little bit of free promotion then we could go to work and see if we could help out with your new venture, your new business. Put our might of our radio station behind you. The talent of our voices.

Ash London got one of the greatest voices. Thank you. And that person that called through yesterday was Katie. Good morning. Good morning. So you run a business. You've got a fairy like you do kids' birthday parties. You dress up as a fairy.

Happy days. She just goes into hospitals. She's wonderful. brings lots of joy to the young kids. So you charged me with putting together a 30-second ad that we're going to play very, very shortly for your business. I would say probably at least $10,000 worth of value if we were actually going to do this

and run the ads on the network and the talent fee. $9,500 of that, of course, would be Dan's talent fee to voice the commercial, which he has waived. Yeah. And I put a lot of thought into this, Katie. Do you do, I sort of took a little bit of creative, what do they call it, license? And decided that you do other stuff apart from just kids' birthday parties. Do you do that or are you mainly just kids' birthdays?

Yeah, I do. I do a lot of work in the community and for like disco parties for kids with disability. I'm training kids for kickboxing. Have you ever done a bimitsfa? No, what's that? Okay. The Jewish coming of age celebration for like young teens. Okay, because I have advertised.

doing them as well. Also, I think it's, before we play it, do you know the song by Prince called Raspberry Beret? Do you know that song? I don't think so. You know that song by Prince? Okay, well, this isn't going to as well as...

Hello, how you going?

Oh, lucky you're not doing his ad. You get his bloody name wrong. You're going to be Googling Dave. Oh, Dane's a much cooler name than Dave, too. Dane from Wanaka, you're a Chippie, bro. Yo, how's it going? You're good, so you're a chippy, you're a builder in Woonika. Yeah, I am, mate, yeah, I'm just getting in the truck ready to go to work right now. Oh, nice.

What a beautiful part of the country to be living in. You must be just pinching yourself every day. Oh, it is pretty stunning. Yeah, it's a little bit of fresh snow up there right now, actually. It's pretty awesome. Okay, so you wanting to promote the building business? If you like that stuff, yeah. Yeah.

Oh, yeah, it keeps me paying the rent. For sure. So what's the side hustle that helps you go on holiday? That helps you go on holiday. Well, it helps you get up the mountain, yeah. I've got a little business called Powder Hunter Snowboards, and I designed snowboards here in Wanaka, and yeah, we've got like our little own New Zealand snowboard brand.

Powder Hunter Snowboards. I'm on your website now. How cool, mate? That's amazing. Good on you. How's it all going? How long you've been doing this for? Dan.

I've been doing it for three years now, just hustling every winter, and, yeah. Getting up a mountain and set up the display and give people boards to demo and stuff. It's pretty rad. It's pretty fun, man. Everyone's super happy and it's a great place to be, eh? You sound like a great guy. Why should someone get one of your snowboards over another one? Well, my snowboards are designed here in New Zealand and they're designed for New Zealand conditions.

The snowboard market worldwide, I guess New Zealand's probably not even 1% of that. so nobody designs boards for New Zealand. Love that. And who was the Haim Dog 155 named after? Who's Haim Dog? Hame Dog is a legend, man. He's actually, he's been riding in New Zealand for 30-odd years. He's over 70 now, and he still does 100 days on his snowboard a year.

Wow. What a legend? We love Haynog. Yeah, man. He's awesome. He's classic. He's such a little bit. The question to you, Dane, is

who do you want to be the face of your business? You've got a choice between Clinton Randall, star of this show and Dancing with the Stars. New Zealand Idol. Or Nash London from Australia. Oh, I could open you up to the Australian market. You know, it looks at snowboarders. This is true. Oh, my God.

Yeah. Well, I don't know, but I think Clint might have it on this one. You've made the right decision. I would be honoured to squirrel away for the next 24 hours and bring back something that hopefully you can be proud of. And maybe a little audio file that you can attach to websites when people will click it at the jingle plays or whatever. Yeah, no, don't do that because every time it plays, he'll have some counter and you'll get an invoice at the end of the year

for using his voice. No, this is free now. Cleanse it your beak and call anything you want to use this image for you can. Yep, that's what a segment's about. All right, leave it with me, Dan. Sounds amazing, guys. I do just want to say, Dan, you've got really wonderful energy. We can tell on the air,

you're a good dude and you've got a great spirit about you. I've just had a mouth of coffee, that's why. Come on, get it. Good on your mate. All right, well, make sure you answer our call same time tomorrow and we will see what we managed to spit out over the next 24 hours. Hey, looking forward to it. Looking forward to it.

Also, I'll just get your email off here because I'm sending you a high resolution photo of Clint Randall's face for you to put on the side of a mute or anything you need, okay? Thank you. Perfect. Yeah, straight on the gram. A yute wood driver.

around Wanaka with Clint's face on it. With a big thumbs up. A nice snowboard. I use powder hunter snowboard. Okay. Thanks, Dan. You're a good sport. Clint, Megan Dan. I'm Gilbella here for the Gen Z quiz. Five questions. A real nostalgia trip back down

memory lane if you're a millennial or older. But for the Gen Z is, you may learn a thing or two in this game. You ready? Yeah, I'm ready. Because you've never had a perfect score. And I think you've got it in you. Last week was so close. You almost got a perfect score. Yeah, four out of five. What was the one that left? that you don't. I was hey, it was, hey Arnold.

Yeah, no clue what that was. So we have a little bit of a trick up your sleeve today because you've got a lifeline on the phone that you can use for one question you get stumped on. That person is your dear old dad. Hey, dad. Good morning, Roo. Copy, copy. Good day, guys, you're all right.

Gidey, Roo. Is this Rue's first time on the show? Yeah, it is. How wonderful. Can I just get ahead of everyone and say, Roo, you should be so proud of your daughter. She's amazing. The work she does on this show is unbelievable.

Every day we're just constantly blown away by the quality of her work and her attitude. You've done good work, Rue. Well done, mate. Excellent. Thank you very much. Thank you. Is your full name kangaroo?

No, no, no, it's Andrew. Oh, no. Well, the impact that Bella has around here is almost the opposite to how well she does at this game. Yes. This is her Achilles heel for sure. Yes, absolutely. That's right.

At all games. Oh, can't, Rue. So if you want to hold, Rue, you stay there. We might need you. Your first question, Bella. Easy one to start. What was I doing back in the day if I was using Napster or LimeWire? Oh, Napster.

I was just like Nappy Sand removing a stain. No, no, that's not your answer. No, it's not my answer. Lime wire's got me now. Were you transferring money? Is that what you were now? Let me over. Damn.

Downloading music. Illegally. Yeah Okay, oh for one And it would take like 10 minutes to get one song Oh really Oh sometimes more Okay so perfect score out of the question

But you still get four out of five Okay Here you go Next question Name the nicknames Of the members of this band The nicknames Oh the spice girls

All five Yes Oh my god Okay Sporty spice Yes Scary spice Yes

Baby spice Yeah. Two more. There's two others. Jerry Halliwell. Yeah. What was her saying? I thought that was a guy for a second.

Jerry. She had like the red hair and the Union Jack flag on her dress. It's scary. Oh, um, Happy Spice. No. Happy Spice. Happy Spice. And grumpy Spice.

Zero out of five. Don't forget, you have got your lifeline who you may want to use for this next question. Posh and Ginger. Oh, and Posh was, um. Victoria. Yeah, yeah, still is. You can use your lifeline for the next question because I think maybe Rue might know the answer to this one.

Okay, okay. Name this movie. Your mama sure does care about your schooling, son. You don't say much, do you? E! E! E! E! E! E! E! You have a famous film? Okay, I don't know. Dad, Dio.

Okay, so we're going over to Rue. Do you know what he has, Ruth? It's a tough one. Oh, not really. Oh, not real. Can you play it again? Can you play it again? Well, your mama sure does care about your schooling, son.

You don't say much, do you? How about I do this, ruined it? How about it? Sounds a bad movie. Yeah, no, it's not a bad. It's a classic, but I'll give you another quote, which I'll do myself that I think will help, okay? Life is like a box, chocolate.

You never know which one you go and get. Shut down. Well done. Bella's dad getting her on the board. Okay, question four. Question four. Who sings the song? Rolling in my skin.

These words, they will marry off. An iconic band of the early 2000s. What came to mine is Creed? No. Lincoln Park. Sorry, Honey Bowen. Chester Bennington is going to come back from the dead. Okay.

Last one. Actually, we can let, yeah. Okay, here we go. Last one. For your only point, if not for your dad. Name this kid's toy that this ad is advertising. Hey, now kids come gather around. So we just skipped in the town. So stupid and I'm screaming in a bot to bop.

But the very best thing of all is there's a counter on this ball. So try to beat your very best word. No. You've got one word right. Skip it. Skip it. Oh, you're close. Skip it.

Come on, everybody. They were hard. I'm going to do the question. for you next week. That was a vocal show in the week. No, that's on you. She couldn't name five spice girls.

Shosh Ash, that's not true. You're being too nice. Yeah, even I'll say that's can't stand up for you. That was awful. Yeah, well, next week. Yeah, well, dad helped. Thanks, Dad.

He had no help whatsoever. Me too. One out of five. Oh, wait. You have a bloody good father's day, Root. Hopefully Bell and treats you. Yeah.

Hey, you have a good day. You have a good day, guys. You do. I love him. I love him. I love rude. What a lovely man. Clint Meg and Dan.

Gossip, entertainment. Clit megan Dan with Ash London. Scandal. Freddie Prince Jr. and Sarah Michelle Geller. Wow. Throwback. Yeah, throwback is right.

If you're in your 30s or your 40s, you will know these two. They will like, I mean, San Michelle Geller, Buffy. You had the horn for it. They must have run out of money by now because they've not done anything either of them. He was like, I know what you did last summer and stuff. There's sort of horror movies. And she's all that. And then they both went to Scooby-Doo.

That's right. I forgot about that. So she did Buffy. She did, I know we did last summer and then Scooby-D. Yes, you may think they're not making money. I reckon she'd be getting some residuals from Buffy. And he did that, he did a movie for Netflix, like a Netflix Christmas film. He played a father whose daughter was obsessed with this pop star.

So the, the mom died, obviously. So she does a video for the pop star, and the pop star sees it and goes to visit her. and then get stuck at her house in a snowstorm. What an incredible premise for a film. Yeah, and then her dad, who's a music teacher, obviously falls in love with the pop star and they write a song together. It's her career comeback song anyway.

I'm getting very distracted. So Freddie Prince Jr. and Sarah Michelle Geller met on the set of, do you know what film? Scooby-Doo. No. I know what he did last summer. I've already said it. And back in 1997, they're married five years later in Mexico.

Now, I don't know if you got the audio in time because I sent it to him so late, But this for me is the epitome of the early 2000 cinema. It's the prom queen scene where she's on the stage, Sarah Michelle Geller, and up in the bleachers, like in the back, someone's getting murdered, and she's screaming and no one's listening to her, and it's so frustrating. I touch the food with my hand.

Don't you know who I am? Mary! Nobody help us see! I've got PTSD from that film. I think it was like one of the scariest films we ever watched growing up. Like that and scream. Have they remade that yet? Because they need to.

They need to be like, I know what you know, that you know, that I know that you know what you did last summer. I think that it's called... I know there is another one. I still know what you did or whatever. That was the second one. I can't use a tanning bed. Well, no, they're bad for you anyway. but in one of them the girl gets locked in the tanning bed.

Isn't that final destination? Oh, is it? Yeah. She's like horror as mixed up. No, it's not. I know what you did last summer. Death by tanning bed, which film. I think final session definitely used.

Definitely used one. Final destination three. Yeah. There was an error, though. I could see how you got them mixed up. For my whole life, I've been saying that that was, I know he did last summer. Yeah, like it gets locked, eh, and then it just kind of like melts them. I feel like there should not be locked on them.

They should not put a lock on a tanning bed. But every time I'm even in a sauna, I'm thinking of it, and I'm checking the door 200 times to make sure I can open it. They're all ridiculous to pivot on horror movies, but the latest one, Final Destination, is actually really good. It's comical in parts, but I actually really enjoyed the film much more than the old ones. And there is a new, I know what you did last summer. It's just come out in the last year or so.

Yeah. So I bet it's not as good. No, there's no way. I think we'll ever be, like, we'll never beat those movies from the late 90s or the 2000. We didn't know how lucky we had it. Yeah, many summers are going on. The next on the show we want to know, what was? He still knows everything from that summer.

What was the cringe thing that you would go back in time and change about your wedding? You look back and you're like, why do we spend money doing that? Oh my God, it's so cringy. Clint, do you have anything to say here because I remember you sung your vows, my friend. If I, I would struggle to choose only one. that I would change, if I'm honest. I've only got to get one worship. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I need to leave if you're going to play that. Me too. Dan alone in the studio listening to clipsing his

bow. And it'll be joyous. Trust me. Clint, Mick and Dan. One of the wonderful things about being the person that comes into this little crew temporarily later on in the story is that I've missed out on a lot of these, the backstory. You guys know so much about each other because you've shared so many stories. And every now and then I get led in on something that is just so delicious and so heavenly. So yesterday we were talking about weddings and Daniel Webby, you shared a little nugget of information with me about our counterpart here, Clint Randall's wedding and something that he did at his wedding that, and I have been told I need to stop doing this on air, but it did make me dry rich when you told me about it. It's an interesting thing because Clint, when

you see him, he's not a cringe guy. He's a pretty cool individual. He's a cool. He's a Cool hang, definitely a cool hang. But whined the time back about 20 years ago and he was a different person. Well, we all were different people back then. We had very, we had different gauges of what was socially acceptable. Thank you for saying that, Dan, because I look back at my old memories and I'm literally having an out-of-body experience and going, who was that kid? Yes.

If I could transport back to any time in history, it would be Clint Randall's wedding because he sung his own vows in front of numerous guests. How many guests did you have at this? 150? So imagine this. Jamie's just read her vows. She's just done the normal vows.

Just read him out of a piece of paper. And then it's Clint's turn. And a man comes onto the stage with a guitar. Oh, my God. And Clint. Wait, wait. Did Jamie know about this or was it like a surprise? Okay.

Oh, I almost don't want to listen because I don't want to lose respect for you. do you know me and the boys also learned to dance that we were going to dance down the aisle we spent two hours and we pulled the pin stop deflecting and play the audio please here's the first part so this is he just launches into a song here we go oh guys just play it how am i not going to dry wretch can we turn the lights off at least so i can't see your faces do you want me to come around there and push the button justic i said the same as dan do you want me to come and push the button for you i'll look away i won't make eye contact with you clear i'm going to look

A Dan. Hurry up. Me and Dan can look at each other while it plays. I'll step for so long to find the words that belong to the feelings I hold in the heart. Just time I see your face. I can't laugh and laugh and laugh. Okay, so you've heard the start.

Now wait till you hear the chorus. How does it get worse than that? Here we go. No, I don't want to. It's like I'm fighting with my hands. I promised to me. My list and swift To always be there

To always be true To treat the bad and the good To treat you as I should And when I say we I do I give my love and my love to me Oh yes God was in the room that day And then it gets to the crescendo Now wait for this, there's a big pause

So this is the last bit And this is where you'll hear some silence. Leave it, let it sit, okay? I'm alive and my love to you. I do think you are allowed to clap. Isn't that the most cringe thing you've ever heard? I paid enough for this. Before that segment started, you were, like, as far as, like, how I feel about you.

Like, coolness, want to be your mate. Here. Now, here. Yeah, yeah. I've gone down about 50%. Oh, 8.003-3-4-3. What do you regret about your wedding? Nothing that could have happened at your wedding.

That was more critical, you're regretful than that. You can't be, wow. And do you know the craziest thing now? Now that I'm thinking back, not a single person from my memory really even talk to me about this. Did Jamie out of interest Sheila your wife? She loved it, eh? Because that's all that matters, or was she cringed out of life?

I don't know. We don't really talk about it. Okay, just the other side of the coin. Vanessa's texted through, hey guys, this is lovely. Would have loved it if my husband had sung our vows. It was very romantic. If Hannah had done that, I would have left her there and then. What was the cringe thing that you'd go back in time and change about your wedding?

Yeah, we just heard Clint. singing as vowels. Do we want to just have a little five seconds? Just a little bit please, the last bit please. I promise to make my last dance with you to always be there. It's always be true. I think it's clemen of weddings. And the little baby voice. He shouldn't be invited to weddings because he did this at another wedding.

He got off in front of everybody to the Harker. That was because most of the bridal party were from Australia and they said they'd never seen one. We've seen one. And to be fair, it was after the wedding. It was after midnight, and we were on the bus on the way home. How many Māori people were you, was it just your like 100? No, just my 132nd Māori self. Ash, he took his shirt off.

Shut up! He took a shirt off. Do you know, I had to email or message all the boys on the bus and go, who got a video of that? And I made them swear to all delete it. Oh, he was like, yeah, in New Zealand you actually have to take your top off. It's the rule of how they have to be half naked. Can't be trusted.

With like a red flag poking out the top of it. Another ash on the line. Good morning, Ash. Now, what did you regret about your wedding? I regret the husband. I regret going to the registry office with no shoes on. And that M.F literally wore a hoodie with his hood up the whole time. What?

How? Did you really love him at the time? I really, okay, yeah, I did. I really did. I was 18. I was pregnant for the first time with my daughter, who's 13 now. And I just wanted the dream family, you know, the husband, the wife. When you're 18, you have that sort of image in your head.

But I was very clear that I made a very bad decision, and so I tried to get my marriage annulled 11 days after my wedding, that there's a cut off of 10 days. Oh, so I had to wait two years. Oh, no. Unfortunate. What song did he sing here in the end? The what, sorry?

No, he didn't sing a song, did he? Well, you know, sometimes you try something and it doesn't work out. In the very same way that we tried to make fun of Clint today by playing that very cringe audio, but dozens and dozens of texts are coming through. I'll just read some of them out from Melissa. I think it's beautiful, Clint. I read it in their voice.

I think it's beautiful. I'd be bawling of happiness if I was the bride. And then Laura said, you guys are so much. They're so brave and I would have loved it. And then someone else said, I'm a married guy and I feel a sense of jealousy coming from the people who think Clint's singing his vowel. They said vowels, not vowels, are funny or dumb.

Hey, look, I think if you guys put yourself at our shoes and your mate sung their vows, you'd take the piss out of them too. It was a beautiful thing. Do you reckon for the 20 years, because I'm being married 16 years now, once I had 20 and we renew our vows. Maybe I should get her to sing to me to even up the cringe. No, no, no, no, magic mic strip tees. Yeah. Get a hunker at the end.

That's what he would do. And he'd do his speech while he's doing it. Yeah. Rewrite the lyrics to Pony in vowel form. My Jamie. Don't tease me. And not everybody's on clipside. Someone texts through saying I had to pull over my car because I was fringing so much.

And He's been talking about having a party for pretty much since his third birthday. And we don't go too over-the-top with parties. We keep them pretty low-key.

So he goes to a wonderful kind of, he's got great friends, and the time has come for us to plan this birthday party. And look, they're expensive. I don't want to do a big kind of over-the-top thing. But it's come time to put a list together. And it started kind of filling me with a bit of anxiety, because as a parent, and I know you guys will agree, the one thing you never want for your child is to be left out.

Yeah. And this is like one of my biggest fears. Even like last week, you know, the Kendi did do a little update and you get the daily update. And they talked about how a couple of the boys and the meeting map shared that they'd been to a birthday party that weekend. And they weren't even kind of boys that buddies really close with. But automatically I had that like pang in my gut was like,

oh my gosh, like was Buddy left off the list that they not like Buddy? Even though, like, it was so not a big thing, the parents probably just invited one or two of the friends, which is I know what we'll probably end up doing for Buddy. But my biggest fear is that we would ever be the source of another parent being upset or a kid feeling left out. And it is hard to know. Like, I asked Buddy, like, if we have a four-birthday,

who do you want to invite and he'll kind of list off the people he wants, you know, and there's kind of four or five names. But then I'm thinking, well, what about that? that kid that, like, you've been photo, like, do you want him to come? And then I'm like, well, do I have to, do I just invite the whole kindi class? Do we have 30 kids so that no one feels excluded? But then we can't afford to have 30 kids and their parents. And also, everybody's like, who's that kid?

You know, and then he's got people at his birthday. He doesn't even know. I always just put it in the responsibility of my kids. It's like, well, who do you want there? And my big fear is that maybe there's a parent out there who is still waiting for their child to get invited. to a birthday party and for whom this would be a really big deal to get invited to a birthday and I don't like want to make a kind of huge deal out of this but for a four, five, six, seven, eight year old kid, getting invited to a birthday party is a huge deal and getting left

off of a list is a huge deal. So I would love to know what people are doing, what the rules are, or maybe you're on the other side of this and you're one of the parents of a kid who isn't getting invited. Because as adults, I think we have the benefit of hindsight. We look back at our own lives and go the times that you were left out of stuff, or you were forgotten about. Sometimes it can be really traumatic and they can

last for many years to come. You don't want that for your own kid. And I see a lot of parenting videos get maybe my 4 you page on Instagram and a lot of them talk about how as parents we want to like jump in and save them at every turn to protect them from any sort of like

hurt when what we're actually doing is a disservice because they're unable to then navigate those situations because mom and dad always jump in and save them from having to emotionally deal with them yeah but when it comes to a four-year-old or five you just want them to be invited at the bloody birthday party yeah yeah maybe it's more like when my kids are like eight and ten as opposed to four they're probably too young but you don't want to be the pity invite either you know totally but you wouldn't know would you no maybe not but I think they would like I think kids are in an age now where like if buddies at kindi and kids saying we had a sick birthday party on the weekend.

Of course he's going to be like, well, why wasn't I invited? Do you know what I think is worse? What is more heartbreaking? Not the kid that never gets invited. The kid that has a party and invites kids and no one comes? Oh, that is the worst. When you see them online and it's just this kid with a whole bunch of party hats around a table and no one came? Have you seen that one where the fight war, the fire service and the ambulance service came to that kid's party?

Because no one turned up just to like chair them up because you love ambulances. That's the heartbreaking thing. because I've not been invited, maybe you're aware, maybe you're unaware, but inviting 10 kids and not a single one showing, that's got to be soul destroying for a little. Yeah, look, we're already getting so many texts from parents who are texting through with seeing invites and wondering, oh gosh, like what has my kid being left out?

There's some great advice coming through as well. Oh, I saw an invite to a in another kid's bed bag at daycare drop off. This morning feels like a throat punch. She's on the line now, Laura. You totally understand where I'm coming from with this, the fear for your child. Tell us kind of what happened today. Yeah, I was just dropping the kids off at day here.

I happened to glance down as I was hanging the bag up. There was an envelope sitting in another kid's bag. Oh. And then you instantly go, oh my God, maybe Mike had hopefully got invited or maybe they were left out. It's a horrible feeling, isn't it, Laura? Yeah, it's awful. Gosh, I just don't know what to do.

do. I haven't got to the stage yet because my boy's only a year and a half, so we haven't got to the point where there's invites going out, but I can see how it would be gut-wrenching. And especially with kids that, like, you know, just have different needs or a different kind of maturity levels or maybe they're on the spectrum and, you know, as they get older, they'll find their people. But when they're younger, you know, like kids can be cruel and not as tolerant as understanding as adults can be. Are you worried about this as a parent? Like, if you got your son or daughter's birthday coming up and you're actually legitimately freaking out about whether anyone's going to show?

Yeah, on both sides. Is anyone going to come? Is anyone going to invite my child? We would love to hear from you guys. Because in the more we share these stories, the less alone we feel as parents because we just want to do right by our kids. We're talking about kids' birthday parties.

My little boy is about to have his fourth birthday. And I'm faced with the stress of not wanting to exclude anybody, but also the fear that my own boy is being excluded. We've had people text through the same feeling of seeing an invitation in another kid's cubby and wondering why Buddy wasn't invited. And it's just normal kid's stuff, of course. But as a parent, it is pretty heartbreaking.

And I really want to do the right thing by Buddy and by everyone else that is kind of. I think most of the time it's probably more heartbreaking for the parent. The kid might forget about it. Yes, absolutely. Ash, Megan's got some advice for you on 0800 the edge. Megan, what's your advice to Ash? I say invite the whole class.

Yeah. We moved into a new area. really know many people. My daughter had a couple of friends. So for us to meet the parents and the children, we invited everyone. But we went to an open area, like a playground, that had a barbecue. So we just done sausages. We put no pressure on the parents to bring presents.

It was just basically for the kids to have fun. I love that. And we've got some really good friends from it now. And these kids still, my daughter's now 14, we still have kids. that she doesn't see anymore, still ask about Wednesday night's birthday party. That's so nice because often we think we need to put on a big thing, right? And kids just want to hang out with each other.

And we have had so many texts come through saying we wish we could have more people, but it's cost prohibitive. And also we've had parents reach out to us to say, we would love our kids to come, but we can't afford a present. So saying that, you know, no one has to bring a present, I think, is fantastic. We had someone else text through. she said my boys don't get invited to parties they're neurodivergent they don't ask and they don't get us

so we just have a family thing at home she said you know as a mom that is just the saddest thing in the world and I can't imagine that would be easy oh that'd be so difficult that is bloody tough to know that it's reciprocate like it's not happening either way and having to kind of you know we'll have a family party at home yeah because I guess there's harm in two minds like I think

being invited is great and not being invited thing also gives you a little taste of reality that not everything is going to be for you all the time but I guess if you're never been invited then you're not getting a taste of both sides there's enough time in life to learn life lessons you know no kid wants to be excluded from a birthday night you don't need to learn at it for yeah

and I think childhood birthday parties are magical aren't they as well you know and you want that for your own kid you want it to be magical you want them to remember it for the rest of their lives absolutely I think that's the right idea is taking the pressure off, inviting everyone down to the park and just putting on a barbecue. Like, you don't need to bring presents.

There's no expectations. Just come and spend time together. Everything you have to do, I think, as a parent, is keep a tally of who has invited your kid. Because if they invite your kid and then your kid forgets to invite them and you forget all the names, that's a bad look. Yeah.

As always, you guys have given me lots of advice and I'm very appreciative of that. But I think, yeah, we've got the right idea. Take the pressure on. And if all else fails, I was never invited to parties and I turned out all good, sort of. Oh, that's. Yeah.

Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh, my gosh. Guys, they've started fighting already with A-Lister. I have never seen a radio host tell someone to F off and then go on the air within 0.2 of a second. Like, how did you even do that without broadcasting that F-off to Dan? Oh, man, we are angry. He didn't even say

He said the actual word to Dan And then went on air Okay That was cutting it so thin That's because we were talking about that You know that Millionaire CEO guy That you might have seen on the internet

He snatches a hat That's been given from a tennis player To a child And he reaches over and takes it Yeah so that got us talking about sports people That got us talking about Roger Federer Dan said Roger Federer is a A Lister

And then And I said yeah And so would Nadal And Dan B-lister. Okay, but what people don't know is that Dan does this annoying thing where he puts his hand out in front of him, like, is he like, so-so. And he does this really, like, mm-hmm, face, and it's so infuriating

when he's talking about an A-listic, like, maybe now. Rafael Nadell is one of the greatest tennis players the world was ever seen, and it's still playing. And this guy is sitting on his ass. So I... No feederer, is he? He's no feederer. So, yes, told Dan to if off and then turn my mic on it. It's the edge. What are we doing today, Ash? Come on, rip the band-aid off.

Today we are doing Oscar winners. We have to decide do these three people belong on the A, B or C-list. No one ever really gets put on the C-list. First up, an obvious A-lister, married to Brad Pitt, won the Oscar for Shakespeare in Love, of course. She's a founder of Lifestyle website, Goop, also married to Chris Martin. I'm talking about A-lister, Gwendoth Paltrow.

She was married to Chris B-lister. Was she married to Brad Pitt? Or maybe they were married, they dated. Yeah, they dated. Yeah, and she was the boyfriend of Iron Man in like all the movies as well. Yeah, but like Oscar Winner and Goop. Yeah.

And she's got Apple and Moses. Even her kids are, I mean her kids are almost A-List. Gwenith is A-all-day. No, she's a B-Lister. She's very famous, yes, but she's not on the A-List. She's not the upper echelon of world-famous actresses. She's just not. But it's not even actresses.

It's the lifestyle brand and it's just the vibe of Winneth Culture. Would you put her on the same vein as your Angela Angelina Jolie's. Yes, probably more than Angelina Jolie. Absolutely not. It's also, it doesn't even matter if her movies, in your opinion, aren't as good. It's whether the world knows Gwenith Paltrow. It's not the quality of her work.

It's, do we know her? Is she an A-Lis? Is she famous where the world goes, oh, that's Gwyneth Paltrow. Of course, that's Gwyneth. Gwyneth Paltrow walks through the office. People aren't clamoring after her for a selfie. I think there'll be a few, not as many as some other. Okay.

Debate Gwyneth Peltra because we can't agree. 3-3-4-3 on the calls. Next up, another Osguine, very. very, very famous and of the time, Emma Stone. B. Clint? It's okay to agree with him. The problem with Emma is because the name Emma Stone,

I feel like people go, oh, I've heard the name, Emma Stone. And then they Google and go, oh, you're her. And for that reason, I think she has to be a B. Okay, but maybe a B plus. Like, there's still time for her to become an A-A-A. No, she's a B, and she's lucky to be there. She's unbelievably talented. the first lucky to be there of the day

and it was Emma Sturrant, okay. Gwyneth, so far we've had absolutely no one even grazing an A-list. Gweth Paltrow is an A-lister. She's not. You're on. Okay, and the third one is definitely an A-Lister, and if you disagree with me on this, we have to cancel the segment. Russell Crow. Ah, yes, he's an A-List.

Oh, thank God, A-Li-A-Lis-A. Yes. Yeah. Gluteus Maximus, or whatever it was. What of feedback coming through already. Two of the texts of the three people that have messaged about Gwyneth Paltrow saying she is, a B-lister and I am in fact correct. Yeah, but then the last person that texted through said

in the words of Clint, F off, Dan. Gwyneth is an A-lister all day. Someone else has just said, I've never heard of that, Gwyneth chick. Yeah, well, they obviously live in a commune with no internet connection. The only A-lister on that list is Russell Crowe, and he deserves to be there. Gwyneth Pughey is definitely an A-lister. I'll give you Emma Stone, I'll put her on a strong B-plus, but I think Gwyneth is an A.

Controversial opinion, I think Emma Stone's more famous than Gwyneth. What? Yeah. She's a stronger B. Gwyneth. What? Yeah. Get out.

It's wild. Go home. Just go home to your child. I'll wait under the edge of 334.3. We'll find out if Gwyneth will be cemented in the A list. A all day. Come on. Even her name, Gwyneth.

Doesn't give A energy, does it? It's very unique, though. You wouldn't forget it. All right, the A list of list. Who deserves to be on it and who does it? Ash has already thrown out three Oscar winners. this morning? We agreed that Russell Crowe is a strong A.

I've allowed Emma Stone to sit at a B. But the point of contention this morning is Gwyneth Paltrow. Of course, famous for she did Shakespeare in Love, which she got the Oscar dated Brad Pitt, married to Chris Martin. Shallow Howell? Shallow Howe. She did Goop. She had the lifestyle brand, which millions and millions of women follow.

She was an In The Avengers. She's a B. She's a B, and actually, you know what, she's lucky to be there. If you say she's lucky to... She is. And a lot of people agreeing with me this morning. in fact a landslide of people agreeing that she is a bee. Good morning, Shanara.

You're agreeing that Grinith Paltrow is a bee? Yeah, I do. I didn't ever know who that was, but I had to Google her. Yeah, that's not... I had to Google her. And then once you saw her face, we were like, oh, that chick. No, I thought she was the one with short blonde hair. Not long.

She did used to have short blonde hair, but she's now grown it out. When she won the Oscar, she had short hair. Cassie, you think that she's a B list as well, and she's lucky to be there? Yeah. 100%. I agree with the last call that I had to Google her. The other two, A-list, I reckon.

You think Emma Stone's been hard done by? Yes, I reckon. I think everybody knows, or more people know Emma Stone than Gwyneth. I would agree with you there, but I don't think she quite makes the A-list, Emma Stone. Maybe there's an age. Well, then B-plus. Yeah, B-plus. I'll give her a B-plus.

I agree with B-plus, I agree with B-plus. And Cassandra, you don't usually agree with me, but you've agreed with me today. Yes. I'm 100% agree with you today, Dan. Gwyneth Poutreau, she's just not relevant today. Like, you don't really hear of her. So, sorry, Ash. What about when there was a Coldplay concert scandal?

And then the company ended up employing Gwyneth Paltrow to start doing all their advertising, and the whole world watched it. Yeah. I didn't hear it, so not relevant. Yeah, of course you didn't decide her. She wasn't listening to my scandal segment that day. Yeah. Sharon Casey's just sexery saying

I just turned in and thought you were calling Gwyneth Poucher a bitch. She's in me. She's in B. She's in B. I'm sure she's lovely, but she's not an A-lister. Remember when she put out the candle

on the group website that she said this candle smells like my, hoo-hoo! I remember she took her pants off and squatted over a kettle. Yeah, the Yoni steam. Yeah, she steamed so yoni.

I think, in hindsight, no. No good for you. Never do it over a boiling one. No way. I mean, you're getting people going, oh my God, Gwyneth is A-list A-F. Like, she's A-she's A. But then the amount of people who have never heard of her,

then it feels like it's hard to, it's hard to defend. When you go, if people don't know who she is from the number. We have three people called so they didn't know who she was. I'm happy to, I know when I'm wrong. Yeah. And at this time I was wrong. And that's part of growing up is realizing when you're wrong. Exactly.

Hey, Gwyneth is a B. And I want you just to say to me, look, me in the eye, and go Dan. Dan. I was wrong. I was wrong. And you were right. And you were right.

Big boy. I'm not going to say big boy. Okay. I was with a train. Holy shit! You made it the whole way through. If you want more, find them on Instagram at Edge Breakfast. See you tomorrow.
