This is a podcast from Rover. Oh, she's about to do her mating call. Whoa! Hey! Oh, boy! Oh, God! Settle down, Meg. It's time for the show, Kinky. This is Clint, Meg, and Dan. Koda, good morning! Friday!

Friday got us on a long weekend. Remember? It was a good Friday. Remember? Yes. You know what? Monday, Meg and I didn't even know it was a long weekend. I know, a good Friday. Remember? Yes. You know what Monday, Meg and I didn't even know it was a long weekend. I know and now it is. You reminded us.

Thank you Clam. And then you tell you what, I'll give you a short week too next week. God he's generous isn't he? You are good to us. You are good to us. The mother Teresa of radio. Meg's probably so tired with her pregnancy I wouldn't put a pass to her forgetting and showing up on Monday.

Oh probably. Probably. How big's the baby now? You know how you go those apps and it says it's as big as a melon. Or as big as a... They're not very good. Give us a fruit, like a papaya. Do you want a fruit?

It's a melon size. What do you think? It's 42 centimetres. Oh, wow. That's much bigger than a mango or something like that. I'd say that's like a small watermelon. 42! 42.4 centimetres. Jesus, you can have a big kid. Well, not mine, everybody's, but mine's measuring bigger, so it could be about 43.

I thought they were that big when they were fully baked. I think that's like a six month old. No, I don't. You're having a toddler. A very exciting show this morning. Not only do you have your chance to win $10,000, obviously, it's seven and eight. My 14-month-old son's not that late. Who dares?

Dan is happening this morning at 8 o'clock. Your chance to win $500. Dan is going to be the highest radio announcer in the country this morning. I can't do that again. I got in trouble last time. I got broadcast standard complaints. I know, I'm pretty sure you had to, like, leave the show. Yeah, they told me to go home.

Meg brought in some of her stash from West Auckland. Yeah. That's one hell of a stash. Different kind of hype. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh my gosh. Time for a 6am throwback. I've just decided what?

I've got the perfect song. I do because I was like, maybe because Dan is going to be the highest broadcaster in the country this morning and we'll explain a little bit more about that And what Dan will be doing closer to 8 o'clock? We could play a song that people get high to hmm I you've told me and I don't know any details I'm going up high so I'm guessing I'm going in some sort of aircraft or a helicopter and I Beg you don't throw me out of it. That's my worst nightmare. It's some sort of well jump out

Okay, and I can tell you we're not but now that you've said that I wish we were now Clint you can Go how quickly can you find songs cuz me and Dan go go go go back and forth about high songs Yeah, and would you like to start I can start let's take me take you back to the year 2000 with Afro Man and his song, Because I Got High. Yeah, that is a classic. I mean, it is probably one of the greatest high songs ever. Now, I don't even know if we have this in the system, Clint. Yes, we do have it in the system. I was gonna clean my room until I got high.

I mean, it's gonna be hard to beat this one. I get that. I was gonna get up and find the broom but then I got high. I've got more of a... Okay, one. Okay. You know, there was that Steve One-Ward, Higher Love, Winnie Houston remix. That is a good song.

That is a good song, good pump up for Friday. Oh yeah, okay. Do we like that? With Kygo. Yes. Bring me a higher love Oh, I do like this. I think we play this.

Bring me a higher love Oh, none of you have even gone with what I thought was the obvious. I had it loaded up just in case. Now we have an excellent choice. Now we're talking. And then there's probably my favourite. It's the one and only DRE. Dr. Dre mother.

Busses. Busses. I would say I'm happy with any of these. I'd say Afro Man's probably the most controversial. This one is the most spicy. Mmm. How you feel? Do we ever get told it's not spicy?

I think Afro Man's probably spicy. I mean when would we last play Afro Man on the edge? It came out in the year 2000. Although I feel like Meg's is probably like Friday, going into a long weekend. That's us being very good. What do you reckon? Let's get the producers to choose this one.

Producers, you get to vote. Who's Sneepier, producer Carl? Efra Man, Creed, Kygo with Whitney or Dre and Snoop? Okay, what are your... Two brain cells. Yeah, last two, eh? Yeah. All part of my body is telling me to go with Creed, but I Two brain cells. Yeah, last two, eh. Yeah.

All part of my body is telling me to go with Creed, but I feel like it's Snoop Dogg, eh. It's Snoop Dogg next episode for me. It's a Snoop feeling vibe for me too, eh, to be honest. Let's go! Let's go! Okay. The next episode, Dre, Snoop, on the edge. Oh, we're cutting my FM's lunch this morning.

Mmm, this is spicy. It's good, man. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. Yeah, I listen to. Oh, we're cutting my FM's lunch this morning. Mmm, this is spicy. It's in there. Yeah, I listened to a lot of that stuff in my Ford Laser hatchback when I was like 16, cruising around with my sub and amp. Did you live the dream, the Snoop Dogg dream while you're driving around in the Laser?

Like, were you that guy? What do you mean, living the dream? Like, did you live the life, enlisting to Snoop Dogg if you've read between the lines. Oh The odd time it just really wasn't my thing, but I got into it a little but not enough Didn't really just wasn't really my vibe. I just get paranoid. Yeah, I just get too anxious Yeah, and I'm not even an anxious person. No, no, you're not anxious. Yeah, that's the sort of thing that can bring round day. Yeah Yeah, that's the sort of thing that can bring round eh? Yeah, yeah.

Yeah. Okay, time for a little coffee catch up. Just a little whip around, see what each other's been up to. Oh god, I had to call my bank yesterday. What a nightmare. Oh, they called me yesterday as well. Me too, it was the worst eh? Yeah, and I said to them, poof, I don't know what I can do.

It's pretty tough. Give me the numbers. And then I was like, no all the numbers. And they said that's all of them. And like wow. That's not too shocking. I had to like go through, you know, I know why they're doing it because I don't want to get scammed.

I have to prove who I am. They make it so hard I couldn't prove who I was. I couldn't do it. She asked me all these security questions and I was like, okay well I think this is the answer and I would give like, you know, they were like your mum's last name. And I was like well okay, well, I think I think this is the answer and I would give like, you know I'm they were like your mom's last name. I thought my mom's had three So I was like, well is it this is this I like can't accept that I was alright Well, I don't know which one I gave and then she asked for my address before this address and I was like

Well, I've had a few addresses which which dress are you talking about? Cuz I don't know the last time I updated. Yes this System I think quite a few got that one too. You sound like someone who's trying to get into someone else's account. I was like, no, that's not right. And then she's like, OK, what's your driver's license number? And I was like, I don't have my wallet on me. Couldn't use that. And she was like, what's the last four digits on your card?

I was like, again, I'm calling you, so I don't have my wallet on me. But don't you know, don't you memorize all 16 numbers on your credit card? So if you're paying for... What are you talking about? Don't people do that? You memorise all six, actually you gotta remember 20 because I guess you gotta remember the 16 plus you gotta remember your expiry date

and then the three. You remember that? So it's 23 numbers. You remember, no. Clint's got a photographic memory though. It does piss me off when you ring anywhere like an insurance company or something and you have to prove it's you.

It's like you you're lucky You've got my business. Yeah, I get really and like me and again. I know yeah, they're not really lucky. They're helping me out I'm they know They when you I go to log in on I'm like right I need to log into my banking computer So I log in and I'm I'm logging in on the computer because I don't have my phone Otherwise, I'll just go on my app right and they go you need to check your app to make sure it's you I don't my bloody phone. I don't my phone, that's what I'm doing on my laptop! But nowadays with AI and people being able to sound like you it's like getting even

harder surely to prove it. I know. You can't even use like voice recognition. I get it but man I was nothing happening I got frustrated yesterday so you know just trying to prove I'm me. Did you get abusive? No, no. Because me can be quite abusive. No, and then they do this, and this is the most annoying thing. They haven't helped you, and they go, right, is there anything else they can help you with today? No, just leave me into my bank account!

Just leave me into my bank account. And then they put you on hold. And I go look at it, and they go, why do you need to look at it? There's nothing in there. And they put you on hold, and you listen to Brooke Fraser for 15 minutes. Nightmare. Is there anything else they can help you with? You didn't help me with the thing I even called about.

So no, stop winding me up. The only time I ever hear Bic Rooner now is when I call the IRD. Yeah, yeah. I spread my wings and I learn how to fly. That comes on a lot. She must get so much money just from the IRD, Bic Rooner. Black Box gets the spoon. Black Box, yes.

Stand up. Loyal. Loyal. We Box gets a real good one. We should do a throwback three sense of just like the songs you hear on hold. They need to release like an album like you know those albums used to get now that's what they call hold music and it's just one of the best hold songs. That's what they call stress, because it is so stressful it's not calming. Track one would always be. Oh my god. Oh my god.

Far out, this is gonna be PTSD yesterday. And some of them will get to the end of the song and then it'll go quiet for a bit and then he goes. You're like, one song? Please continue to hold. And they go. How cool is important? You know that you can check our website

to help you out there if you need. I would have gone there! You are now 27th in queue. Please continue to hold, we value your... That's just a nightmare. Please continue to hold, your call is important to us. No it's not. The operator will be with you shortly. The first question this lady asked me was like, did you try on the website? Yes!

Oh, what do you think I want to do that? Clint, Meg and Dan. Let's go. Scandal with Meg. So I'll tell you about our music awards last night. Clint, you were just talking about Phaser Days. Yeah. You said on air, didn't you? Yeah, my wife did her hair and makeup last night before she went to the awards.

Phaser Days was awarded with Album of the Year and Best Solo Artist, so I did very, very well. Wow. Yeah, and then people were probably like, who, who? Phaser Days and you're like yeah she's winning incredible awards and yet where is the music? Not many people would have heard of it. 2024 LP Soft Power which apparently made an impact at home and nationally so here in New Zealand as well so very very cool and if you haven't listened to Phaser Days it's time to do it. Cool name eh? Man that's an epic evening for her then. Yeah and like your wife's

makeup got the spotlight. Yeah. There you go Jay. Some say she only won because of the makeup. Do they? I've heard that. And the wet look sort of like 70s. Someone else is gonna win it and they saw her on the night and were like bloody she has to win. Yeah. She has to win. 660 won the Icon of the Year award, I think that was the first one that time it's been given out so they were all there. And pretty, pretty I would say, yeah the first ever Aotearoa Charts Icon Award. Pretty standard, right? We'd agree. They deserve that.

They've been around for a year. So it'll be one of those really prestigious awards going forward I imagine, will you? It's like your commitment, dedication to music over the years years and Lorde made a surprise appearance of course we knew she was in Auckland because she did that toilet show yeah I don't know how to explain that otherwise. It's like a pop-up show in a woman's bathroom. I love that about Lorde I love that she's never been too cool to come to the or to go to the Aotearoa Music Awards I don't know You know, I just think I just feel like there would be people that would get there and I think she's going to the Grammys You know, she doesn't need to go. Yeah. The thing is as well I quite liked as it was quite a low-key visit

It's not like she stole focus because she could easily do that It's Lord, you know, and there's other artists like Cassie Enders and all those people that are you know, just as talented But maybe she would take focus. Cassie won Incredible War 2. Oh god what was that one? Best Pop Artist. Which is so exciting for Cassie. Lorde won single of the year with her Charlie XCX song Girl So Confusing and she did a little speech in a shout out to Sam Walker. Well actually I really want to say thank you to Stan that was so moving. Yeah just watching from overseas this year as Te Reo Māori is defended in the way that it is is so inspiring for me. It's so beautiful I'm so grateful to everyone in this room doing that.

We're going to honor that treaty or what? And if you feel like you're missing out on what she is so inspired by, this was Stan's performance moments before. He's got the best voice. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I said it to his face last time. He's one of the best voices in the world. He took home, I believe, a couple of awards as well as best Māori artist. So very, very cool night for everybody involved.

Big congrats. Yeah. Everybody, and Lorde does have her latest song out. It was released yesterday, Man of the Year. I'll have it in our New Music Friday segment, which is coming up at eight. We're trying to get Cassione, but I'm imagining she had a big night.

Cassione, listen. You would. She would have been partying. As she should. So, Producer Carl, you've been in chats, eh? Yeah, I got a text back from her at 12.25 last night saying Yeah sure I'll come on for a chat. So we'll see what happens. Might be a bit dusty. Checking her phone almost 1am.

And you know when you're a few drinks deep, everything's a good idea. Yeah she won't be awake till at least 9 I don't think. Yeah we'll get her on when we can get her on. Coming up next on the show, wanna get to know you, we'll sort you out with a voucher to go spend in store at Z. Well, there you go. There you go.

Someone's keen on a Friday, going into a long weekend to chat. So we'll do that next. The Clint, Meg and Dan podcast. How can I get, get, get to know, know, know, you better, better, baby. I wanna get to know you. All right, so this morning get, get to know, know, know you better, better, baby I wanna get to know ya Alright, so this morning we're getting to know Boston

Oh what a cool name Very cool name, Boston is that your real name? Yes it is my real name I love it Boston works as a truckie but he drives, what I drive, a Toyota Vitz but he's not in the truck His nickname is Boss which I'm guessing... What a juxtaposition! So what sort of truck are you driving? A UD truck.

A UD? It's a wheeler type of truck. Yeah, so a big truck. It's diesel. Is Boston trying to offset his carbon emissions? Yeah. Maybe, like, you know, when you're not working. That's true, that's true.

Yeah, just cheap fuel, so... Good on ya. Nickname is Boss, which I guess just makes sense with the fact that his name's Boston. Cool parents. I always think someone's got a cool name. It is pretty cool. Yeah, have you got any siblings? Yeah, I got one brother.

Oh, wait, wait, wait. No, no, no, no, that's gotta be the question. That's gotta be my question. Okay, ooh, I like this one. Okay, don't say anything, Boston. Don't say anything, because a lot of people, there are some parents out there that have a really normal name,

and then like a left field. Can we, let's ask, is Boston, are you the first or second child? I think that makes a difference. I am the first child, but you should get what, so my step brother and my brother's name both have the same name. Your step brother and your brother have the same name.

It's supposed to be somewhat common, okay. Have the same name. Okay, Boston, you sit there, we're gonna guess and then we're gonna see who's closer if somebody gets it. I'm gonna go with another like city like an American city. I'm gonna go with Brooklyn. Brooklyn and Boston. Oh two B's as well. Okay Dan. This is a tricky one. He's the older. I'm gonna go there a little bit Bogan-ish. Okay. And so I'm gonna go... I'm gonna go Holden. Oh, I like that. No, I think that's good.

But then the two, Nate, I don't think it's gonna be right. I was thinking Hunter. Hunter's good. Okay. Okay. Boston. And let's say they went really normal for the second name. Jeff. Joel. Okay. Well, yeah, that's a good safe bet from you, mate, because if it is a normal name you're gonna win

because you're gonna be closer. Alright, Boston what is your brother and stepbrothers name? Cooper. Oooh, who wins that? I think Meg would be closer with a more normal name. I'd say Cooper's that normal. I do like Brooklyn but I don't know about Holden. That one was a bit...

Well actually I would say Dan. My argument if I was Dan would be that Cooper is like a car, a Mini Cooper, and he went with a car brand. Yeah, that is true. Yeah, that is true, isn't it? But I don't really care who you're giving to because I'm not getting the points. Should I get the point then Boston? Well I think Dan should.

How did that happen? How did that happen? How did that happen? Stuff you Boston! Maybe you need to ask Meg if you should have a Boston because I've got a Boston. Boston's gone! Oh my god! He's chucked them back on hold. Alright hey we'll send you god. Oh my god. I thought you hung up.

He's chucked them back on hold. All right, hey, we'll send you a voucher to go spend in store at Zed. Boston, you get stuck into their brand new cheeseburger pie. Only 6.90. You can taste one at Zed today, although we'll send you a voucher where you can taste three or four of them.

I've got my books for boomers coming up next. How to survive an affair according to the 90s. His needs, her needs. Now there's a question I do have for you boys, I know neither of you have had an affair as far as I know. Or as far as you know me. Yeah. But you might know people who have had affairs. He says there's something a man does after an affair that I would love to know if it's true or not. Oh so then if your man has done this thing, there's a good chance that they've had one.

He's saying it happens every single time. Is it dabbing? Because Dan dabbed after he won that game. It's not dabbing? I don't think anybody would want to cheat with me. That's just how to repel women. Yeah, I'm just repulsing people. Clint, Meg and Dan.

Books by Boomers. Oh, my favourite thing. I've got a book from the 90s called His Needs, Her Needs, Building and a Fear Proof Marriage. Unfortunately there is a chapter at the end that he's like, look, it's probably going to happen anyway. If it happens, here's what you do. If you bought this book, yeah. It's not looking good.

It's not looking good. Yeah true. And there were some really interesting things that I didn't know, apparently, about affairs and men in affairs in particular. He writes, this man, Willard. Oh, is this the same book, Willard? Same one, his name's Willard. When I tell a wife that her strained husband will always remain in love with his lover,

the typical reaction is often one of despair. But you must accept the fact that your husband will always be in love with the other woman. That doesn't mean that you can't build a stronger love between you two though. Wait, what? So he's saying that after an affair with somebody else. Oh, because the affair's happened.

If you're saying, sorry, the affair has happened. So let's say it's Dan, Hannah and Mary. Mary doesn't fall in love with Mary. Because she had a little lamb. You fell in love with Mary. You had an affair with Mary because you and Hannah were on the rocks or something. But he's saying that in no way ever will you ever stop being in love with Mary. Even if you and Hannah reconcile your relationship.

Because you're always looking at your time with Mary as this spontaneous, fun, naughty thing that shouldn't have happened. Yeah, okay. Yeah, so he's saying that the wife has to accept that if she's going to take him back, he will always be in love with Mary. But Hannah and I could build a... But you could build a stronger love. How?

He said, I've found that breaking a man away from his lover proves more difficult than breaking a woman away from her lover. I'm not sure why this is so. Perhaps women feel more uncomfortable loving two men, while men adjust very easily to multiple relationships." Oh, come on. I was like, god bloody it. We're not born to be monogamous. Come on, guys. Yeah, and he goes into saying that that's what caveman and all that stuff used to go about.

What did Mary do for a job? What was she doing? She was a sheep herder. Oh, right. Yeah, because she had a little lamb. She had a little lamb. She had a little lamb. I couldn't, that's the one reason why I know I couldn't cheat. Is because I just couldn't start a new relationship

and do all that stuff again with a new person. I just wonder if there's any truth to it. Have you found that they never, they always go back. Eventually he said within five or six years, even after what appeared to be marital bliss they go back to that lover or they think about every time now but what about the people that have patched it up and then and and you know some people say it's most awful time in their life and they would never want to go through it again yeah but they're glad they went

through it because now it's stronger way stronger than they would ever have been coasting at a five out of ten the whole I'd love to know how much Willard's cheated. Cause it sounds like he's a pro. I reckon he's done it a few times. You reckon he's a cheater in that slater as well. And if he's not speaking from experience, then what the hell does he know? True.

He says the only way to make it work is that the woman then has, the wife has 24 hour surveillance on her husband. That seems fair. You think so? Well, if you've cheated, I think if you want the trust back, you have to earn it. And if you start being secretive about 24-hour surveillance on her husband. That seems fair. You think so? Well, if you cheated, I think if you want the trust back, you have to earn it. And if you start being secretive about where you are at certain parts of the day,

then surely that's the opposite of... So he's filming me going to Mary's and stuff. He's filming me. No, no, no, you don't get to go to Mary's anymore because you're trying to work it out with Hannah. Hannah gets your location services. That's what I'll tell her. Yeah, but you should see you're at Mary's.

God, he'd be terrible at it. Yeah, fair enough. Your wife could FaceTime you at any point, and you need to hold it up. FaceTime was around in the 90s. Yeah. And neither was like GPS or Find My Friend or any of these things. She would have been buggered.

Me and Mary would have been buggered. Everyone has their rule. That would be an interesting rule going, if you've cheated, at any point now, I can FaceTime you and I want to see where you are and what you're doing. How long does that go for though Meg? Because it feels like for like the rest of your relationship because that would be like oh my god like come on it's been three years we need to move on.

Five or six years later they go back and they cheat so he says for life. So for life she or he can check up on the other one 24 7 and go what are you doing and who are you doing it with? That is what he's saying because he also says that he recommends men once involved in an affair need to go to therapy every three to six months to make sure that they're not falling back in love with that past. Bloody hell. Yeah. I mean if he takes enough swings Willard's gonna hit eventually. I feel like there's a couple of things you can do. Yeah, fair enough. Yeah, so if you have been in a veer I'd love to know if that is something you can just let us know if that is...

My wife Hannah knows exactly where I am all the time anyway she's got that fine friend. Oh she has that? Yeah the annoying thing is I can't see where she is. Right so she doesn't set it up the other way. No it's just a one way street. That sounds dodgy to me. She could be with Bloody Mary Paul I know. Clint Megadan.

Let's go! We're gonna get into Easy Money, your chance to play for 10k in just a few minutes. And we thought we normally just get straight into it at 7, bang, we're into the game. Go, we don't really get a chance to chat with you and just calm you down. Cos so many people are playing rattled. Yeah. So... So we won't do this every time, but this is like a Friday. Yeah.

It's been a big week, we've gone into a long weekend. And Caitlin, we won't do this every time, but this is like a Friday. Yeah. It's been a big week, we're going into a long weekend. And Caitlin, how are you feeling this morning? Kia ora guys, good morning. Caitlin, you are gonna play Easy Money. Give me a little background about your life a little bit. Like what's your situation? Married, kids, flatting?

No, in a relationship, long distance, and I live away from my family, so 10 grand would go very far. Okay, okay, okay. You sound tense, take your shoes off. Yeah. Take your shoes off, I'm just going to start massaging your feet there. I just want to give you a few scenarios, Caitlin.

And we're just going to try and calm you down because so often we hear people playing panicked and they end up ruining their opportunity. Okay, Caitlin. Just relax. Shush. She's not saying Caitlin you're at home and You know It's long weekend, you know your partners coming coming up to see you, you're very excited.

And oh, you've just found out your family have all won the lotto and they're flying over. Give me your other foot, Caitlin. It's only the family members you like though, they're not the annoying ones. Yeah. Yeah, not the ones that you actually like, you meant to love but that you're like,

oh god, that's a drain. Just the good ones. That's a reminder of him. That's good. Take your hat off because I'll give you a head massage. Why is she wearing a hat? She's inside. Dinner tonight is all sorted, She's inside. Right.

No. Dinner tonight is all sorted. It's your favourite dinner. Mmm. Yummy. Yeah. You've got candles lit. Take your top off.

No, 10. 10, yo. You're not even a real masseuse. I need to get the oils on, Clint. I can't run for a moment. It'll stain her top. Okay, I'm just... Now let's see if she's relaxed and ready with her brain switch.

Okay, I'm gonna do like a little let's see if she's relaxed and ready with her brain switch. I'm gonna do like a little brain thing to see if it's firing. Alright, Caitlin. 16 plus 12. Should I give it? No, not... Close though. We made it too relaxed.

Too relaxed. Now she's falling asleep. It's 28. It's 28, but that's okay, okay. We've gone too relaxed, so we're gonna jazz you up, we're gonna give you 60 seconds, and then when we come back from the news, we're into it. But don't freak out, 60 seconds is a long time. Do you want me to do your glutes, Caitlin?

Or do we? You know what, I'll pass on that one. Yeah. That's fine, that's fine, we'll just stop at the shoulders. Actually, the massage is free, because we feel like Dan might have touched you inappropriately in the last two and a half minutes. That lavender smells lovely, doesn't it? 60 seconds, and then you're wrong, Caitlin. Actually, the massage is free because we feel like Dan might have touched you inappropriately in the last two and a half minutes.

Lavender smells lovely. 60 seconds and then you're wrong, Caitlin. Okay, do what you gotta do. He knows your ways, baby. He knows your ways. I love that, Caitlin. The Edge is Clint, Megan, Dan. The Edge, 10K. Here we go, it is bang on seven o'clock. Long weekend Friday, maybe that's what Caitlin's gonna need

to get the job done this morning. Meg's gonna hit you with 10 questions, Caitlin. She's gonna give you a letter. Every answer must start with that letter. You can't repeat answers, and your time will start at the end of Meg's first question. If you can get all 10 in 30, we'll give you $10,000. Let's go, Caitlin.

All right, Caitlin, you ready? Is she F.O.V.? Yes, yes, I am. Calm, calm,10,000. Let's go, Caitlin. Alright, Caitlin, you ready? Is she F-A-V? Yes, yes, I am. Calm, calm, calm. She sounds relaxed. She's good. Calm, calm, calm. Here we go. Your letter is S.

Okay. Okay, repeat it back to me. S. Snake. Yes. Okay. It's a snake. Here we go. Name a singer. Yes, she's gotiel. A board game. Skate Grease. A country in Asia.

Singapore. A language. Spanish. A tourist attraction. Darn Dan! I had to Google Sprocha Spaniel because I didn't know that was a thing. Who is it? Central Liberty, Skytower, Sydney Harbour Bridge and the East singer, Sam Smith, Selena Gomez,

Shakira Sia, she'll be there. That would have been an easy one if you got into it. But you got into it, I was worried for the first pass, but then you really got into it. Yeah, you got one pass and six correct. So I need to be a little quicker. That was really good, Caitlin, though. Apart from the pass, you were pretty quick.

Dare I say it, though? Thanks, brother. I think when there's a pass, you're pretty quick. Dare I say it though? Oh thanks. I think when there's a pass you're pretty doomed. Well I've done no I did it yesterday Amy behind the scenes I passed one got to nine and then had time to go back but I think the key is if you're gonna pass you gotta pass early you don't want to spend three seconds thinking and then pass. Just go straight away. Yeah can be done we will play again at eights if you think you can do it ten thousand dollars

could be yours in an hour's time. Okay, what are we going to kick off seven o'clock with? Ooh. It's going to be fun. Yeah. Sayings that don't exist, but maybe they should. When it comes to sayings, our Meg struggles with the common ones going round. And I feel like they're very old,

and I've had to be explained to their background to make sense to my life. I think new ones would be great for me. Yeah so maybe we'll come up with some new sayings next. Clint, Meg and Dan. Oh Meg is great with a lot of things and we don't have time unfortunately to go through all of them. It's funny that you never have time to go through the things that I'm good at. It just runs out of time. The radio show's not long enough. Yeah, right. But of course, even Superman has a kryptonite.

And Meg's... What says kryptonite? Kryptonite. Oh, right. Yeah, that's where the saying comes from. Got it. Yeah. That's not one of your strongest suits.

Do you know how often Meg says something and then you see producers grab a pen and start writing something down? Okay, so he's, okay, got it. So at yours, Meg, is sayings and getting them right and not mixing say two together to create a new one. Just recently, you dropped the board with this one. Man, this hit song took the world by hold, eh?

We were like, country? Took the world by? Took the world by like, country? Took the world by... What Meg? Hold. Had a hold on the world, or took the world by... It's a weather based saying? Took the world by... Weather. Took the world by...

We have to wait until you get it now. For god's sake. If it sort of came and went. Took the world by a tornado. No. What's a tornado? What part of the... If you want me to stop that? Wind. Took the world by wind.

That doesn't sound like you could... They call it wind of the world. No, you've got to write it up until the last... Oh, please make it end. It's hard to listen to. It goes on a little longer. I now know that's a storm. A storm.

Yes. Took the world by a storm. No, but I just... Took the world by storm. Don't make any a storm. Took the world by a storm. No, it doesn't make any sense. Okay, anyway. Did you not go to school? How much time did you spend wagging and smoking behind the, you know, the bike sheds?

The saddest thing is I was there every day, boys. Oh my goodness. Did you have headphones, earphones in, or? I was there every day. You were just facing the back of the classroom. I still stand by the fact that there are sayings that could be modernised, and these incredible guys on a podcast did this, and I get all of these. They make sense to me.

They are actually great new modern sayings, and if they ended up sticking, I think people would very much understand and remember these. Take a listen. You just shit your pants in the bathroom. You were there, you were so close, you put in all the work, you almost got it,

but it doesn't matter because you completely f***ed it up. Oh my god. I like that one. I love that, oh man, you put in all the work you almost got it But it doesn't matter because you completely fucked it up. Oh my god I love that. Oh man, you shit yourself in the bathroom gutted. Yeah, like that's so good. I will be using that one Here's another great one. That's gonna snowman what to do this summer You're talking to the wrong guy who was in the wrong place for what you want to get Asking a snowman what to do in summer Okay, and one last one from the boys on this podcast don't split a piece of sushi Some things are just meant for you and when you try to share them with someone else it makes it worse for everybody involved The thing is Confucius that guy Confucius he wrote a lot of the old sayings to me

He should be called confusing. Yeah It's none of us sayings are just confusing. So we've been given the homework to write one say in each, but Dan, you've written quite a few. I got into a... I think this is my calling. OK, well, let's see. OK. Just because the door's closed... Oh, do you want to start again?

Just because the door's closed doesn't mean it's locked. Oh, yeah, I like that one. That makes sense to me. So give me exactly what the example you're using. So it means like, you know, always try. You know, you might see an opportunity. And don't think about the worst case scenario. It's locked. Yeah, you think it's not, it's not,

you're getting in your way. I don't even think you understand your own saying. Yeah, because I think it's more- Isn't it, it might look like there's not an opportunity there, but if you push on anyway, you might create one. You might completely agree. You can think of it like that if you want to Clint.

Makes more sense. What about this one? No I don't get that one. Always keep your enemies your best friends and the ones that aren't your friends. I'm a lion too. Sounds like keep your friends close and your enemies close and the majority exists. Make friends with the fast person then the slow one. Make friends with the fast person than the slow one. Don't brush your teeth if you've got no teeth.

Oh so don't do the extra work if you don't need to do the work. Yeah or if you've got no talent don't bother. Right. Yeah. Well we've got to say have you got your best kept for last? Those yeah. I think he came out as best one. Okay well we tasked the team with the homework to come up with one each.

We'll see which one we like the most and then we might start trying to use it in the homework to come up with one each. We'll see which one we like the most and then we might start trying to use it in the show and see if it catches on. If you've got one as well and you want to play along, fire us a text, give us a call, let us know what it is. If you think you can rival Dan's calling. Have a think about this one during the song. No bird flies without flapping. Have a think, just play. I think you need to write the sayings first.

Like what do they mean? I said to Dan what do these mean? He goes, oh it's obvious. We're coming up with new sayings because Meg keeps getting the old ones wrong. This is one that I really love. It's probably one of my favorite. You just shit your pants in the bathroom.

You were there, you were so close. You put in all the work, you almost got it, but it doesn't matter because you completely f***ed it up. It's really good. I'm going gonna use it. We've all had the homework to bring one each and then we're gonna vote on whose we think is the best that can stay as a saying that will try and slip into our lives.

Okay. Okay. Who do you want to go first? I know an E.P.A producer, an E.P.A has been working on these all night, so let's get his one. Let's see his one. Yeah, I spent an hour and a half on this last night in bed. I had so much fun creating these. So one of my favorites that I came up with is this person's using a pizza box as a plate.

They've got everything sorted, like fundamentally they're doing things right, but it's just not all quite falling into place for them. Something's just kind of gone wrong in the process. Okay, you're using a pizza box as a plate. I don't like it. Why? I just think it's a bit too confusing.

Why are you confused? Well, cause it's not a plate, is it? It's a pizza box. Yeah, but they're using it as a plate and that's why they're doing it. So they're doing quite a bit of it together. It's like not quite falling into place. If they had everything together they'd have an actual plate, but they're just using the pizza box as the plate that they're scraping by. You're the type of person I probably think we would refer to as using a pizza box for

a plate. Okay, producer Carl, have you got one? No he does not. He's frantically organising the dance. Okay, Dan your final best one. Okay this is what I think is my best one. I wrote 10. Your journey to the moon started when you were born. No. And what that means is you know, everybody's got the same opportunity of going to the moon. And it started when you were born. Everybody's equal. I'll go with my next one. Okay, thanks.

So my saying is, when you've got a friend that's like going round and round in circles, and they're almost getting in their own way, maybe they're talking about like, they're in a relationship and the partner keeps doing the wrong things, and you feel like you're hearing this thing. It's a pretty long one. This is the explanation. It's just the explanation. You know when you've got a mate that's just going around in circles

and you're saying like oh my god it's just, you're just talking about it all over again. You're like a shark who's got a cut in their tail. Because you know how sharks smell blood and they would just go round and round and round and they actually just... They'd know the smell of blood. They'd get in their own way. I don't know. That's my one.

Okay, my wife has a Tesla and sometimes I have to go to a petrol station to fill up a little jerry can for the lawnmower or getting a swapper bottle for the barbecue. And I always feel like when I drive into a petrol station in an electric car, people look at me like I'm an idiot. Yeah right. The thing is, don't worry, like I'm not putting petrol in a Tesla. When people look at you and think you're doing it wrong and they start trying to

put their two cents in, you go mate I'm not putting petrol in a Tesla. I know what I'm doing. I know what I'm doing. One for rich people. You just. You'd have to explain that Tesla's an electric car. Wow, most people don't know Tesla's an electric car. If they don't... Mate, I'm not putting Pedro on a Tesla. Just chill out, OK?

I know what I'm doing. What about this one? A pig in a tux? There's still a pig. No. Dan doesn't know how to play this game. And also, Dan, you've done five and they all suck. And Nibiru wants to go. Bridges and Eves.

Don't bring an aux cord to someone else's car. One, you've done five and they all suck. The daredevil. Anubia wants to go. Bridges and eggs. Don't bring an aux cord to someone else's car. If someone's kind of like overstepping the mark and they're kind of like putting too much of a foot forward, they're really bringing an aux cord to someone else's car. Don't interrupt that person's flow. True. I'd like it if you said aux cord, not aux cord. I like his pizza box one.

Alright, so we've got the final ones. We'll go round in the circle and this is the vote. The pizza box, don't you use a pizza box as a plate? Something about the moon and the baby. What's that one? The other one was, your journey to the moon started when you were born. You're like a shark who got a cut in their tail.

I'm not putting petrol in a Tesla. They're all shit. And one more. Don't drink from a sieve if you've got a cup. Clearly. And that's just really, like if you've got a cup, use it really. Don't bring beers to an AA meeting. You don't just completely misread the vibe.

Alright you guys, that's a good one. That's going on mate. You've brought beers to an AA meeting. Like you don't know what's going on here. You missed the dress code, you missed the memo. I love, that's your best one. Thank you. Thankfully, Dan needs to get out of here, Meg.

So who dares? Dan is kicking off at eight, but you need a little travel time, Dan. Okay. But before you get out of here, we've got some items we're gonna give you. Oh, right, okay. Now?

Yeah, we're gonna bring them in, and we're gonna get you dressed up. You're gonna need to get dressed. Okay, so what I'm seeing is there's, I've been handed a yellow, what's this? A yellow jumpsuit type thing. Sort of what you'd see Walter White wear in Breaking Bad. Right, right.

And then I'm making some meth amphetamine it seems. Yeah, Hivers Vest. And it was a Hivers Vest and a blindfold. You will be the highest radio announcer this morning, guaranteed. Okay. Oh my god, am I making meth? Clint, Meg and Dan. Okay, ready for the highlights of the week, Meg?

I am ready for the highlights of the week. You got thrown under the bus right out of the gate last week. Did I? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I normally just blank it out. I like, I listen, I absorb and then I just push it. Maybe this week's different. Yeah, through.

Sorry, Bridget and Epea. But it's hard to take on so much bad feedback in one go. Well, give me some good feedback to give then. Alright, here we go. Good evening, Asato, and welcome back to another Producer Diary. It's been another great week with a small incident with Dan and some coffee to scale it, some terrible marriage slash dating advice from boomers, and putting a bow on our MCDC band as well.

Alright, let's get into it. One of our favourite segments on the show is I was in labour, while they were blank. I think this caller really took the cake on this one. I was just at home and my mum had come around to support, like it was my first child, I now have three. The contractions were getting like really tough, so my mum suggested having a bath.

So my husband drew me a bath and then I hopped on it. Ten minutes later, he was sitting because we had quite a tiny bathroom and the toilet was right next to the bathroom. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He decided that he was busting to take a poo. No! Do it outside! Do it in a bucket! Yeah. Shit! He didn't! He didn't, no, he didn't. You were in the bathroom, I mean like intense contractions. He did, he did. I never let him live it down. And she shouldn't! He didn't know he did it. You were in the bathroom and like... He did. He did....intense contractions.

I never let him live it down. And she shut in! I mean it's not quite the same, but Dan, this related to you, didn't it? I would leave the house if Hannah was at home to do that. Leave and go where? Down to the squash club, usually. There was a squash club just a few doors down, so I'd use it.

How long? I was a member of that squash club mainly for the toilets. Oh my god! This week, Clint gave us, or just mainly me, some advice on how to look more attractive on a first date. If you want to be perceived as more attractive, then do something on a first date that pumps the adrenaline, like riding a roller coaster or a skydiver.

It's called misattribution of arousal theory. It implies that physical excitement, through like adrenaline and doing something a bit crazy, gets confused in the moment with romantic attraction. I took my wife bungee jumping. Oh, that's what you did too? On our first date. Although, Jay, you weren't stoked on the fact

that a night in thought is true. When you go bungee jumping, they have to weigh you, so they stand you on the scales, and then they write your weight on your hand in red vivid. You weren't pumped about that, were you? No, I didn't know what 64 on my hand. So if you wonder how much of your first date weighs, Walsall's are getting her to...

Oh, this is too, this is too weird. Meg also had a wee bit of dating advice for us this week too, except this dating advice may be a little bit outdated now. So if you don't know if your husband's attracted to you ladies, here we go. Okay. Test, the test is what he does after he looks at you. If a man looks at you, your husband, even the most sensitive husband, will occasionally

fondle your breasts at inappropriate moments if he finds you attractive. So that's a good little marker. What if you're at the supermarket? Well it didn't say that, it just said it just occasionally will happen. So if he doesn't do that that's not good news. Right. NCDC's final gig was almost derailed this week after Dan came in with a croaky throat and had a bit of a run-in with some coffee descaler. I went out to refill the cup with salt and water just before and Sena our lovely cleaner was like what are you doing? I said I'm just gargling some salt because I'm losing my voice. I haven't been gargling salt guys.

It's been coffee machine descaler. Urgh! You're an idiot. I'm sitting next to the coffee machine. It looks like granula, like salt. And I tell you what, I think it's made my voice worse. Because I've been drinking it all morning. Our band MCDC played their first ever gag on Saturday last week at Olivia's 40th birthday

and after a short little audio error... What? Oh no. We decided we needed redemption live on the radio. Let's go! And if someone's missing Let's go! And may I just add, we absolutely crushed it. Putting a bow on the MCDC series, unless... I think if we do another song, even, and I think we will some point, one day, we do an original. To be continued. All right, that'll do it for Producer Diaries

this week. Have a fantastic long weekend. God save the king. And we'll see you back bright and early on Tuesday next week. Thank you Producer Nipia, Sim from Girls That Invest, the book, the podcast, and also the Instagram page that has, I think, seven or 800,000 followers on it. Yeah, an insane amount of followers, 10 million downloads on the podcast. The book is number one seller, incredibly smart woman. We're very lucky to chat with her. Yeah, I mean, there's a reason why

there are that many people following her. It's because she has the answers on how to get rich, and if that sounds like something you're into, stick around, because she joins us next. And Sim joins us in studio. She's gonna tell us how to get rich and if that sounds like something you're into stick around because she joins us next. And and Sim joins us in studio she's gonna tell us how to start earning more money hopefully Meg if you would like to do the honours. The world's number one investing podcast for women. Is it number one? I think so. With I think listeners in over 150 countries you've been featured in

Vogue, Ted Talks, UES, Business Insider, Oxford Women in Business, New Zealander of the Year? Young New Zealander. Young New Zealander of the Year and also Forbes 30 Under 30. Anything else I've missed? Go on. No I think that's a no. I definitely missed something big. Oh and best selling book, sorry best selling book as well. Can you make us all rich right now? Oh, I like to think of investing as like a bucket where you've got, everyone's got like an investment bucket or a bucket filled with money and everyone has a leaky bucket.

Like you cannot avoid spending money. So I always try to say like, if you are the kind of person that's like, I just wanna like save everything and I don't wanna spend any money. I wanna get rid of all the leaks or the holes in my bucket. It's just not realistic. Like, we are going to spend things.

We have to. Sound like my wife. I had to. I saved $50 on this. Yeah, yeah. And the question kind of becomes less about like the $3 decisions. Like, well, it's not even $3 anymore for a coffee, like $5 decisions. And it becomes more like the five thousand dollar decisions

what can we do to add more water into the bucket and that's where investing and you know our salary comes in so I like to focus on that. Rather than trying to plug the holes with these tiny little savings how do we put more water in so even though it's still gonna come out water is going in faster than it's coming out. Exactly because you can't like you know save all of it you've got to you've got to enjoy a little bit of life. What is the first thing maybe even the second thing that everyone listening right now can do to start putting more water in their bucket? So the best way to make more money isn't necessarily trying to learn a new skill in a completely different field and

start a business like 90% of businesses don't last within you know the first three years it's actually seeing within your role, within your job, within your company, having a conversation with your boss and saying, what do I need to do in the next six months for you to bump up my salary by 5,000, 10,000? They should be able to give you actual tasks. And if you achieve that and get that, that's much easier making that $10,000 and trying to find $10,000 to save in your life.

I really liked the example that one of the early employees at Facebook gave, her name was Sheryl Sandberg, and she said that in her journey, when she sat across from Mark Zuckerberg, she was like, Mark, this is going to be the only time that we are sitting opposite each other and we're going to be on different teams right now. I'm going to be advocating for my salary. You're going to be advocating for the company. And I need you to know that me being a really good advocate and negotiator will only happen

against you this once. After that, I'm going to be using these skills for the benefit of the company. Now let's do the negotiation. Oh that is good. That is a good one. So good. Meghosh, did you use that one the other day? I'm just thinking, I would have to memorise it because I'd be like, you're here and I'm

here and you're facing, and we're facing. It's like a school speaker. She's pulling out a cube. You're there on the table, I'm on the table. Now that's an interesting conversation because your employees should be negotiating with you if they are doing well in their job because they're learning from you and your job is to teach people how to negotiate. How funny little thing for you two.

One of them listened to an episode that I had done many years ago on salary negotiation. That's smart. And she used the tips. She was like, you know, well, in this role, I do X, Y, Z and that brings in this much revenue. So I'm making you money and therefore you should pay me. And I'm like, damn, where'd you learn this? She was like, I listened to your rehearsal.

You would have had to give her a pay rise. Absolutely, they're incredible. They're great. So what is the biggest mistake most people will make in a negotiation? The biggest mistake we make in a negotiation is what? Is what? You're going to have to get the podcast to find that one out. She also talks about which is more important, to pay off debt like a mortgage or to invest and save.

Because they don't teach you the stuff in school. There's a lot of incredible insights that she has about how you can start saving and making money right now. Yeah, if you want to listen to the whole thing, it's about a 30 to 45 minute chat, which sounds really long, but incredibly full of helpful tips to make more money. So text invest to 3343 to get everything out of her brain so that you can start now. It's also like you can't afford not to spare 30, 40 minutes and listen to a podcast like that when someone's giving you free financial advice. Just when you're tripping, you're driving

or out of work. So if you missed that, invest to 3343 if you want the full chat with Sim from Girls That Invest. Clint, Meg and Dan. Clint, Meg and Dan scandal. If you wanna play easy money, you can win $10,000 by playing that in about 10 minutes. So make sure you get your phone near you.

But for now, we're talking about Brad Pitt. For GQ Magazine, he was in Glenorchy New Zealand right near Queenstown beautiful part of the country incredible part of the country Glenorchy is breathtaking I was lucky enough to live in Queenstown for a couple of years and Glenorchy has this lake that on a good very still day it's literally a mirror of the sky so So it looks like there's two skies. It's just stunning, most amazing thing. And now Brad Pitt is also in the footage. So I'm gonna leave.

So now, Meg's like, oh, it's like fighting in my brain. Lake, Brad, Lake, Brad. What is it about Brad Pitt that is so hot as well? I've been looking at his face, and I'm like, you know what, some people are like, wow, amazing eyes, or it's like everything is just perfectly maybe aligned. Because I don't know what stands out about him, but it all looks good. And he's now in his 60s and you do love an older man. So he's like better and better.

Yeah. OK, I'm going to show you some photos. If you want to see them, text Brad to 3343. There's a video and the photos. Clint, your thoughts on Brad Pitt at 61? He looks like a rugged miner or a train driver if he had like a pristine white singler and he worked out 12 times a week. What is this dude up to? I know, I know and here's the video. I'm just going to show Clint in the background so he

can describe what he's seen. Beautiful scenery. Yeah, it looks like... He's wearing a teeny weeny beanie. It looks like he's just bought a farm, but he's actually, but he owns a clothing brand and he's modelling and knows nothing about how to... Oh, he's on a motorbike riding over like, like pebbled streams that have all dried up.

And he's driving this, like, I think it looks like an Indian, like motorcycle. Yeah. Oh, and he's just looking at the scenery. I shouldn't have paused for that long between the make of that motorbike. It was directed by StoryWorks New Zealand which is really cool so like a kind of smaller filming company down that's based in Queenstown would have been an amazing call-up for them I imagine. What an incredible opportunity actually we should try and reach out and see if they want to chat for what it was like. I wonder

if they thought they were getting scammed when they got GQ magazine say hey can you do a shoot for Brad Pitt with us like incredible. I want he makes me want to grow a beard and dye it grey. I think you'll be alright surely give it a couple of years. Yeah yeah I'm not a far off from me anyway. Brad to 3343 if you want to see what everybody's going to be looking at and talking about at work today. Hell of a watch that one actually, if you only check out one thing today. We're going to cross to Dan right now and let him know what his challenge is for After Rates because it has got a time trial attached to it. Will he be successful? On the Edge Breaky with Clint, Meg and Dan,

we love giving Dan a beer. He's tipped baked beans down his undies. Oh my God, straight down. He's serenaded strangers. I knew of my strength when I was weak. And at 8 a.m., we're taking Who Dears Dan to new heights. 8am. We're taking Who There's Dan to new heights. Radio doesn't get any higher or scarier than this.

Good morning Dan, are you there? Good morning guys, I can hear you loud and clear. I'm in a blindfold right now. I've got a harness on, but I'm full of good attitude and full of flavor. Let's do this. Okay, would you like to hear your dear today, my darling? I would love to because I've been driven about 10 minutes and I'm car sick because I had a blindfold on. I just want to know what I'm doing. I've got a harness on,

which makes me think it's something dangerous. Now, if you complete today's Dear Dan and go full flavour, you're going to win somebody $500 cash and a Mother Earth Nutty Sensations prize pack. It's taken a very long time for this dear to be set up behind the scenes. A lot of cogs turning. Yeah. There are 21 people, in fact, behind the scenes who are helping.

You try and be successful with this. Today's Dear Dan, you will climb to the highest possible point of the Auckland Sky Tower. You'll be climbing up the inside of the needle and pop out near the top. Near the needle. And have to stick an edge logo as high as you can possibly get it within 20 minutes. Now we can- Can I remove my blindfold? Yeah, you can do that now.

Oh yeah, okay. So we know that our firefighters can do these stairs in eight minutes, but you have to go much higher than the stairs and get right to the base of the needle, I believe. Yes, Amiga, I'm just gonna dispell a myth right now. I'm not as fit as a firefighter. So eight minutes is out of the question completely.

Okay, we've given you 20. Yeah, here's the thing then. Oh my goodness. 1267 steps from the base of the sky tower where you are now just to the sky deck. Now you've obviously gotta go further than that. It would take someone 29 minutes to reach the sky deck if they were walking up those stairs.

So you are going to have to move. You're going to have to run. I'm going to do it in 22 minutes or less. Okay, we're going to do it in 20. Yeah, your time is 20. Oh bugger. Well make that 19, Ben. Make that 19.

Okay. Let's do this. I'm dripping with flavour. Let's go. Okay, Dan. We have to play easy money. We're gonna do that in one minute. And then when we come back,

I didn't put in stir-fry, but I'll go through some of the things. I didn't put in a stir-fry, garlic, ginger, green beans with food. That was great. So we funded the airport guards, Gates, gift shop, Harry Potter, Ginny Weasley, George. Oh, come on, yes, of course. I know, it's so hard. I know, sorry, I make it sound so easy. She was hard.

I'm sorry, Gin, you did great. Oh, yeah, okay, thank you so much. She's like, shut up, don't patronise me. It's a lot of fun. I'm so excited. I'm so excited. I'm so excited. I'm so excited.

She's like, shut up, don't patronise me. It's a long week today, I have to be positive. Oh man, she would have got quite a few right if the questions were more like, when you throw the ball to another person, it's called a, you know, she would have nailed that. Throw the ball to another person. Pass.

Pass. Oh, Tim, too smart for me. Sorry, I don't mean to kick you when you're down, Jen. Back again at 3 o'clock this afternoon with Sean, Steph and Harrison. Best of luck, 30 seconds. Easy money, 10,000 bucks. Alright, let's go to Dan, who is hopefully

in position, ready to kick off his Who D'ers Dan challenge. You there, bro? I wish I could pass on this one, guys, but unfortunately, there's money up for grabs and a sky tower in front of me. Thousands of steps and I've got to get to the top in less than 20 minutes. Let's play a song and hug and do this!

Okay keep calling 0800-The-Edge if you want Dan to win $500 for you if he is able to complete the deer thanks to Mother Earth 90 sensations. Okay Dan you've got 20 minutes to get from the bottom of the Sky Tower to the top. He's gonna climb inside the needle and pop out at the crow's nest. Your 20 minutes starts in three, two, one. Okay, here we go.

On the way. Here we go. Here we go. Okay, I'm up. Oh, you're up. Oh, you made it. I'm straight,? I'm straight up. I've started. I'm already about 20 steps in guys. This is going to be one hell of a journey. Okay we've got the timer counting down. If you want the money like Meg said call

us 0800 The Edge. We'll cross back to Dan and see how far he's gotten in three minutes and we'll do the maths. Who dares to dance? Who dares to dance? Dan! Who dares Dan? Alright Dan has been tasked with starting from the bottom of the sky tower and climbing to the highest point that anyone can get to inside the needle and popping out of the crow's nest. He has 20 minutes, actually I think he's got about 16 left to do it. All right, Dan, how are you feeling?

Oh, good. The thing is, Med, yeah, I started too fast. Right. And I took each too early. Oh, too premature. Right. It's the story of my life. This might give you a little boost. You're playing for Victoria this morning. Hey, Victoria. Are you there, Vic? Brilliant. Hello?? Oh there she is. Hey Vic, Victoria $500 of Dan completes this.

Want to give him some a bit of a boost some encouragement? Come on Dan, you got it. Get those legs moving. Yeah tell you what that has really helped me Victoriaing me to move my legs, inspiring stuff. Okay, we don't need that from you Dan. I actually did want to say as well, if you want to do this challenge, they do the step up challenge for leukemia and blood cancer in New Zealand. You can go to the Skytower, 1,103 steps.

It's happening in August, but I know that early bird registrations are open. I always try and support teams that are doing it. So, um, check it out bad timing from Dan to go Oh, you're like they don't do leukemia and oh Come on Dan listen, okay I'm a level 24 guys. How many? 60 oh my god. What are you doing? All right for time But remember getting to the observation deck isn't the end of the jail end of the road

Yeah, you gotta keep going, you gotta keep going Oh, shut up Okie doke, okie doke, okie doke Hey, do you wanna know Dan, in 2009 the record was broken for the fastest run up the Sky Tower His name's Thomas, he was from Germany, 4 minutes 53 That's it, 4 minutes and you've already done it Not helping since Oh no?

You know what, me, if you're worried about childbirth, I know you're giving birth soon. This is worse. Pfft. Oh, God. You know what? Now I don't feel sorry for you. Move your legs faster.

I said to Meg, we should be timing him, like, just to do the stairs. And she goes, like, Dan's getting any sort of record. Yeah, he thought he was gonna get a record. There's no way. Okay, actually, are we able to broadcast somewhere outside of the studio? For Jessica, there's gonna be a you question. So that we can see when Dan does pop out of the hatch at the needle,

we can actually celebrate with him. Guys, I have got you a position. It's one of the best positions in the entire Auckland to see the Sky Tower. You and Meg are gonna be full view and we've spent thousands of dollars on this great big zoom lens so we can see them through the camera. Oh yes! From work.

Okay, if you are anywhere in the Auckland CBD as well, keep an eye on the Sky Tower and see if you can see Dan pop out on the needle. And how long do you reckon, Dan? Oh, about four hours. Cool, can't wait for that. Okay, well, doing the maths, I think you've probably got about 13, 14 unofficial minutes left to slap an edge logo on the outside of the Skytower needle to win Victoria $500 and

a Mother Earth Nutty Sensations prize back. Come on, Dan, go full flavour. Come on, mate, go full flavour. That's what Mother Earth has won. Okay, I've got full flavour on. I mate, go full flavour. That's what mother earth has won. Okay, I've got full flavour on. I'm hitting walk though now. Oh, okay. Deckerton berry shortcake and delicious caramelised onion and vinaigrette.

So many delicious flavours. Maybe we get Dan to lick the needle when he gets to the top and tell us what flavour he's picking up. All right, back in three and a half minutes, Dan, and we'll check your progress. Level 30. Halfway there. He's getting there. I think you gotta go further up so whatever it is just up again. It's like a third of the way. Just keep going.

Who dares that? Right, so if you were anywhere near the CBD in Auckland this morning, keep an eye on the Sky Tower, because Dan is currently running up the inside of it. He's got 20 minutes to get to the highest point that you can possibly get to, popping out. He's got to climb inside the needle and then pop outside a trap door and he'll be on what they call a crow's nest. I've just found out the crow's nest doesn't have like a fence or a barrier. Right. It's just a platform that you stand on whilst hopefully being attached.

Is our team up there already? I've got binoculars. If the team can hear me, can you guys wave? I just want to see if those little tiny dots are you. Can they have that? Oh, my God. Oh, my God. That is them. Holy moly. Oh, Oh my god that is them. Holy moly. Oh my gosh it is them. No way that's much taller than I thought it was. It's a top top bear. It's like if you can't get up to the very if you've seen the Skytel you know there's the needle it's the last like little flat bit before you can go straight up the needle. How come your binoculars are four times the size of mine? I don't know, but the thing is I can't- I feel like kids binoculars.

My eyelashes are too long and I keep kind of blocking them. Okay, Dan, how are you doing, darling? I'm a bit worried for you. He's passed out. Oh no, I was wondering, what's the reception like inside a concrete tunnel? He's only at 60! How many to go?

Oh no, we thought he might cut out because he's obviously surrounded by layers of concrete right now. He will pop back up again once he gets through to the observation deck and then starts going up. It's actually mental when you see how high up he's going to be. And Dan is in the fan of heights, he was worried that he was going to be jumping out of a plane today. I'm unsure how he's going to fear and Dan is in the fan of heights he was worried that he was going to be jumping out of a plane today I'm unsure how he's going to fear when he opens the hatch and climbs out we actually do have it all rigged up in mics so when Dan does get to the top and opens the hatch I will be able to get his reaction when he hopefully slaps an edge logo on the side

of the needle and wins Victoria $500 all thanks to Mother Earth. Alright Dan are you there? No we've definitely lost him but that's good that means he's right in the thick of it. Or he died from exhaustion. Yeah we actually don't know either way. Okay should we go to a song and we come back we'll try and get coms on Dan and find out how far away he is and how much time he has left

and whether he's gonna make it 20 minutes from the base of the Sky Tower to the needle. Yeah and if you you are in Auckland, have a look at the Sky Tower and look up and see if you can see him in the next hopefully few minutes. Alright, backbone chasing status, Clint, Meg and Dan. Who dares, Dan? Four and a half minutes to go. Will Dan get it done? You're on the edge. Clint, Meg and Dan. Can I have the big binoculars please? No, absolutely not. Like for children.

No, not at this time. Here's the mic. Clint, Meg and Dan. Can I have the big binoculars? No, absolutely not. These are like for children. It's fine. Clint, Meg and Dan. Daniel has not come through to us yet. There it is. Dan! OK. One more chance.

Dan, are you there? Dan at about 5 past 8 this morning was tasked with climbing from the base of the Sky Tower all 1267 times. He's alive. Dan where are you? Oh this is so, this is like the scene from the... He's not there! Dan you have 90 seconds left. I think it was 90 seconds to maybe 2 minutes. The official count to open the hatch and pop out at the needle. I'm looking at it through the binoculars for you. Okay.

Oh my god, if he misses it by 10. Wave as much as you can towards our building if you get out there. Wave as much as you can when you get out there darling because I want to see if I can see ya. Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god. Come on Dan, come on. Oh no, he's not there yet, not there. He's not there.

Oh, there he is! Is he popping out? There he is! Wait! Dan, wave your hands! I can see him, he's yellow! He's at his yellow, I can see him! Dan's done it! Who would have thought the reception at the top of the Sky Tower would be dodgy? He's done it, he has gone!

We all stand holding our phones up in the sky like it's gonna help! He's gone full flavour for Vic! $500 is yours, Vic, for him. I don't even know the official time but it must have been cutting it close. Very very close. Congratulations Dan, you obviously are going full flavour with Mother Earth. Do you want to give the needle a lick and tell us what sort of flavour you're getting? It's like he's on the moon. Well. He's so far away. This is proving your theory Meg that maybe we didn't broadcast live from there. Karel, what are you saying mate? But I can see you look happy up there. So that's nice.

No, we've lost him. Oh my god, how frustrating. Not physically, he's still up there. Okay, he hasn't fallen. You can actually see the tiny little black speck if you are in the city of Auckland. You'll be able to see him up there. OK. He hasn't fallen. You can actually see the tiny little black speck. If you are in the city of Auckland, you'll be able to see him up there. Yeah, and you have a look past the observation deck.

There's another level there. And then you go past that. Just as it starts to get skinny, you can see Dan in a yellow jumpsuit, standing on the edge of the platform. Oh, he's got the sticker. He's done it. Incredible. Okay, I think we're going to have to wait for Dan to come back down and be able to actually talk to him about the experience.

But officially he's done it. Fixed one yourself. $500! Yes, thanks to Dan going full flavour for Mother Earth. Congratulations, Dan. All right, well, how is he scimped out of the rest of the show now? What do you mean? Well, how's he going to... We're on rest of the show now? What do you mean? Well, how's he gonna, we're on till 10.

Yeah, but he just walks down. Oh yeah, but he's not rushing back to work, is he? Yeah, true, true, true. All right, we'll try and cross back to Dan if we can get some clear comms from him while he's up there in the crow's nest and get a reaction from Dan. So we'll take a quick break.

The giver, we go into Chapel Rowan and we'll come back and see if we can catch up with Dan. Oh, actually, should we pivot? Peeking duck? Peeking duck? Yeah, it's quite fitting. Hi, peeking duck. Yeah, I like it.

This one going out to you, daddy boy. Clint, Megan, Dan. He's at the top of the Sky Tower. He climbed inside it and popped out a hatch. Within 20 minutes, just, I believe. Put an Edge logo right at the top of the crow's nest. You can't get there if you're a part of the public. And he's still up there now.

In fact, we can't hear him. Yeah. He's so far away. Big shout out to Sky City, actually, giving us a lot of manpower. 21 people behind the scenes to get Dan up as high as he is. We will cross to him and find out what it is like out there, because it's a beautiful day in Auckland this morning and just the view up there I'm actually

kind of jealous. Of course you would be. So incredible what an opportunity so we will cross to him next in the meantime we'll take a quick break and come back with a new music Friday. Yeah we've got new music of course from Lord Miley Cyrus has released a song with the same title as one of my favorites so we'll have to put them up against each other. Plus, Kayleigh Bale's got a great track for your country lovers. Could be your new favourite song. We're gonna get to it. And five on the edge.

Ooh, is he there? I've got you guys finally, for goodness sake. Oh, my God. Oh, God. OK, hi. Well, we'll just finish the break, so anything to say? Oh, my God, guys guys I have never done something so difficult I went into that thinking it was going to be really really easy and man it was hard it took me about 19 minutes nearly what was the final time? Yeah yeah we don't we actually don't know but it was just just on the 20 I

think you did really well. Oh my god I had a speech planned I had everything I started saying it no one could hear me but the sticker is on the side of the Skytower I went full flavor it was amazing stuff if you're on the Harbour Bridge right now you can see me I'm waving wave back to me I'm in the yellow jumpsuit just below the sphere. Yeah. Okay. Wonderful. Was that the speech in the wind? Sound really impromptu. Okay, we've lost him again.

I thought he was going to have like a one small step for man type thing ready to rock and roll. Clint, Megan, Dan. And Dan has the best seat in the house this morning. He's at the top of the Sky Tower on the crow's nest just outside the needle. We thought he might have made his way back down to come and finish the show with us. No, but Dan you're happy up there. Yeah well I will say this the line kept dropping out while I was up here so I might as well do some breaks while I'm here right. I just wanted to see if there's anybody, if you're in the Auckland area and you're driving to all that driving into the

city right now maybe you're on the Harbour Bridge maybe you're on the southern motorway you can see me on the on the northern as well give me a wave I'm in a big yellow jumpsuit just below the like aerial of the Sky Tower my friend but I feel like you don't realize how far up you are You're a teeny tiny little rock Maybe the oxygen's a little bit... Can you guys not see me? I can see you with binoculars It's hard to miss I'm in the yellow jumpsuit

Yes yes yes I know but you're very high up You're very very high up Okay Dan you just hang tight we'll let you know if anyone can see you Meanwhile, meek's got New Music Friday and some of the tracks that have just dropped today that could be your new fave. Lorde released Man of the Year from her album that is coming out very, very shortly. She said it's her favourite track off the album. It won't be yours, Clint. It's a lyric listen. It's not really like a banger or a song that has like a particular almost melody.

I like it because I like a lyric listen and it's Cynthia makes me feel things, now I'm broken up in Let's hear it for the band of the year If you wait in Prud's field it doesn't. Oh right, and if you wait in Dushy's field it goes. Maybe there's a little bit at the end but it's right at 20 seconds before it finishes out and you're kind of the whole time experiencing it to have a proper beat, it doesn't. I'm like this a proper beat it doesn't I like this it's a great drag I really wanted to collaborate with somebody who like

Francis in the lights if you know who that is I think they've got a very similar sound Bon Iver and then we have Miley Cyrus has released a song called easy lover now that is a very risky thing to do because one of the greatest tracks of all time made by the greatest artist of all time, Phil Collins. Allegedly. I wouldn't take on a Phil Collins song with the same title. But this is her version of an Easy Lover. Maybe she's hoping she gets a free kick when people search Easy Lover Phil Collins.

It's dangerous because they might listen to his and think it's better. I think Phil wins that battle if it's X Factor. Or The Voice, sorry. You know The Voice, where they do The Battle? Yeah, if you were given the title of a song, you had to write a song around it. You've got that or this. Come on! If you were given like the title of a song you had to write a song around it you've got that or this Okay, Tate McRae's released a song for the F1 movie starring Brad Pitt it's called Just Keep Watching Kiwi country artists has has released Red Dirt Romeo. Gosh, she's a talent ace.

You know what she's doing. And Addison Rae, the final one, bit of an odd one for me, but might be a grower and we could end up playing it. Fame is a gun. I think Kayleigh Bell will be the one that I'll be spitting I reckon this week out of those five. Yeah I quite like Tate McCrase and Kayleigh Bell's, they're my favourites. So just keep watching and read Dirt Romeo, let me know if you want to know any more and we'll get them out to you. Alright cool. If you can see Dan who is currently attached to the needle at the Skytower, give us a call, 0800 The Edge.

He's in a bright yellow jumpsuit and you can't miss him. But he's also about 300 or 400 metres in the air. Clint, Megan, Dan. Who dares? Who dares? Who dares? Who dares? Dan! Who dares Dan? Alright, he's about 300 or 400 metres in the air. I'm not entirely sure where he's stopped, but he's on the needle on the crow's nest, Dan. And Jess says she can see him on her way into work this morning.

Hi. Jess, are you here? Hey Jess. I think I can see him. Okay, Dan. I think I can see him. Dan, are you waving? I am.

I'm in a big yellow jumpsuit. Where are you, Jess? Hi, I'm in a big yellow jumpsuit. Where are you Jess? Hi, I'm like coming onto the Harbour Bridge. What colour is your car? I'm looking at the start of the Harbour Bridge, I'm waving. It's a Black Vault Wagon. Okay Dan, I know you're good with cars, but come on man, you can't see that. Yeah, well you should have given him a bearer binoculars.

Yeah. The problem is there's a lot of that colour. Is there anything else? Oh no, I think I can see you. Can you, can you, can you put your hazards on Jess or something? Got it. Yeah, put your hazards on. Hi.

Okay. Oh my god, yes, I can. No, I can't. Jess, you're saying hi. Are the people waving to you who are listening to The Edge because they know you're on the radio? No, Jess is just waving to no one. Jess is just waving to no one. Please, Jess.

So Dan, can you see Jess or are you just saying you can just to humor her? Look, I'm honest. I cannot see Jess. There's a lot of cars on the Harbour Bridge right now. Whereabouts exactly on the Harbour Bridge are you Jess? Okay, well I'm on the bridge now. She's on the bridge now. Well that's really narrow. It's a big bridge. Come on Dan, spot the black Volkswagen, Jess is in it.

Okay I can see there's at least one, two, three, four, five black cars I can see right now. One of them could be Jess. And I think I can see a hatchback. It could be Jess, it's a black hatchback, I'm guessing that's a Golf although there's another station wagon black car behind that so it could be her. Okay, Bridges and Ibia? Yeah, this is like the radio version

of trying to find your mates on the I love you bro hill at RMV, isn't it? Yeah. It's no good. It's like, I don't particularly like hearing somebody try and play Where's Wally live. It's very strange. Hey, who's the Wally though, me or Jess?

I think you're the Wally, you're the one of the Sky Tower. How long you gonna stay up there? You enjoying it? I thought you were scared of heights. I? I think you're the Wally, you're the one up the sky. How long can you stay up there? Are you enjoying it? I thought you were scared of heights. I mean, once you're up there, I'm all strapped up. It's very safe. It's kind of, if they threw me off the side, that's when I'd be getting nervous.

But while I'm standing in the safety, it's pretty nice. They do. It's very windy, if I'm honest. A sky jump might be a faster way down for you if you talk to the right person. I think I'll just go on the lift Clint if that's all good. Okay. Alright well hey Jess we appreciate you trying to check out Dan because very few women do. We'll send you a double pass to our must see movie, bring her back it's in cinemas.
