The Edge Breakfast - OVERTHINKERS | 108 | Bath salts in my bumhole

Episode Date: August 26, 2026

On today’s episode of The Overthinkers, the crew dives deep into Dolly’s classic interview responses, comparing their own life philosophies to the queen of country herself. From wildly specific definitions of perfect happiness (ranging from precise pizza-cooling times to bath salts in sensitive places) to deeply concerning death fantasies involving burning buildings and drug benders, no topic is off-limits. The gang debates the most overrated virtues, dissects their worst personal traits, and trades Nerf bullet penalties for bad jokes and questionable quotes. Plus, Clint names a very unexpected Hollywood hero, and Dan tries (and fails) to compare his comedic genius to Ricky Gervais.

This is a podcast from Rover. This is the Overthinkers podcast. Hey, yeah, Dan, don't all right. We got you, buddy. Clint, Meg here as well. Well, I tell you what, we've had the sad, sad news today that Dolly Parton has passed away, and the brilliant broadcaster that she is Meg Mansell

has prepared a beautiful poem tribute to the incomparable Dolly Parton. Not actually a poem tribute, but it is themed about Dolly. thought we could answer the questions that she answered and see our answers compared to hers in the question there. Wait, when did she answer? That's how good you are. I was throwing you under the bus and you were actually prepared. I did have something. Yeah.

I thought you were going to do some sort of singing poem. No. When did she answer these me? What age Dolly pardon? Do we know? 2012. Okay, so we're going back 14 years. It makes her 66.

Yeah. Okay. They're weird questions. Okay. Are you going to, yeah, you're going to... You want some weird music? No, no, I thought you were going to go... Do you.

Today we're overthinking. No, it doesn't matter No, I prefer Meg to do it I don't want to clip you What? Today on the Overtinkers podcast We're overthinking Fuck me

Give a bollet What are your favourite names Favorite names? Like if I was going to name a trial Well anything It just says what's your favourite name? What is your favourite name in the world Jet?

Jet! I like Jet's cool I like Rosie I've been talking about it a lot Jet for boy or girl I got a good girl jet in my daughter's football team that I coach. I pitched when George was born Maverick. Wow, Mav.

But Hannah didn't like it. Yeah. But I love the name Maverick. I think it's like a cool name for a little baby. Like Mav, you'd call him Mav when he's a kid. And then when he's older, fuck. Who doesn't like Maverick? So much pressure though. Like I played football. You had to live up to Maverick. With a guy in my team and his name was legend. I was like, oh. Wow. He was young

and he was a good player, but still legend. That's a lot of pressure. Her answer was Joeline, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene. Of course. Okay. What is your idea of perfect happiness. I think someone that is just contented with life and has a lot of free time.

I think you've added an extra couple of letters there. Contented. When you're content? Content with life and doesn't is not worrying about anything. It's a situation. What's your perfect idea of perfect happiness? We're like, oh my gosh, that situation. Like to me it's Friday night, homemade pizza

night with my husband. My kids are down to sleep and they're sleeping well, they're not sick. And my pizzas come out of the oven. It's sat there for about five minutes, so it's not going to burn the roof in my mouth. Good. And I'm sitting there on the couch with my husband. The house is tidy.

And we put on an episode of something to watch and eat our pizza. To me, at the moment, that's happiness. I like the specific details. That's important. Dan. My family's out. Like, out of the house? No, no, no.

I, genuinely, this last weekend, I was experiencing pure happiness and I was having my boule bath. And I'd put some bath salts in the thing and I'd got on too early and they were effervescenting in my anus. Oh, my goodness. and I remember sitting there going this is bliss brilliant

can we have that I've been trying to get these little tiles made up so we can post them on our page and that maybe could be the quote that we used today Clint mine is on a lounger

in the sun the kids are playing in the pool and I can hear them having fun but I don't need to watch them or be in charge and my wife's just gone should we get another apparel so I know she's vibing

and she's had one or two and she's like she's making like naughty comments at me which isn't all the time and I know that we're on we're on here and we're on holiday so I got no care in the world don't know where my phone is and I'm just smash an apparel

right by the pool that's actually good just not having my phone is bliss just like I don't know where it is oh yeah okay her answer was a big loaded baked potato with a good book and time to eat and read time to eat it how busy is that good just enjoy her big baked potato

with her book isn't that nice Okay, what do you consider the most overrated virtue? Is that too complicated for your voice? What's a virtue? There we go. It's going to be, okay, what are the virtues in life? So I think it's like if you're virtuous, it's kind of like the rules of being a human being. What are the virtues?

You could be speaking Italian right now. Well, it's probably not English. It doesn't sound like a... What are the virtues? It sounds Latin, doesn't it? Core characters, wisdom, justice, courage. Can you give her a... Yeah, I'll just give her answer because hers is clever.

She said monogamy. I mean, monotomy. Monotony. So she made a joke about monogamy, and then it's actually monotony. That's good. Do you know what monotony means? Like boringness. Yes, yes.

What is your motto? Oh, that's a good one. I don't think I have one. I got a dad one. Let's make our motos. If it's important to them, it's important to me. That's my dad motto. That's a good.

I love that. so important, Clint, oh my gosh, just having a parent interested in your interests is really mean something. I think mine is just like if you can't smile, make someone else smile. What is that? You fucking made up such a bitch.

If you can't smile, make some of us. What are you trying to be? Are you trying to be Mel Robbins or something? We're not clipping that shit up, putting it online. That is honestly the most natural David Breet moment you've ever had in your life. That was truly David Brent. Yeah, that was outrageously David Brett.

I would say my motto is two, it's happy out. You lose too. If you can't smile, make someone else smile. Write that down. Dan Mewy, 2026. No shares. I was 100% serious. I know. That's what's so sad.

Hers was dream more, learn more, care more, be more. Oh, fuck up, Dolly. He can't be a little of the dead. Which living person do you most? despise. This is a vanity fear. Don, what's his name? Don rash.

What's his name? Donald Trump. Don Trump. The living person he most despise. I can't stand the man. I hate him with every fibre of my body. Yeah, because he's just given some... I wouldn't mind him if he was just a dude going about doing his own thing.

But because he's in charge of decisions that impact so many people's worlds, yeah, I get really annoyed by him as well. You can't, like, you can't name anyone else but him at the moment? No, no, no, no. Actually, no, Donald's fine. He's fine. He's fine. Oh yeah, because he's going to America.

But you've always said that, though. No, and I've got to get a visa. I don't want them seeing this podcast. They're not letting me in. Dolly said, unfortunately, it's different every day because every day somebody is hurting a whole lot of people. What is the trait you most deplore in yourself? Like you don't like.

That's what that means, right? Deplore means don't like. Wait, what is the trait that you deplore in yourself? Yeah, what is the trait you most deplore in yourself? Clint's going to be a hard one for you. Strongly disapprove of. Your own trait. crate that you don't like.

I know mine. Stubbornness. Ooh, good. I can frame it in a way where I can be very, the positive difference between stubbornness and determined.

And I can be very determined, but you can move into a stubbornness realm, which is a bit uglier than being determined. You're fucking quite often in that round, brother. I don't like my jealousy. I think I get lost in jealousy of other people, and I don't like that I have that. I wish I could just focus on myself and not compare myself to other people.

Good one. And just be like, I'm doing okay. Stop looking at other people and, yeah, in comparing yourself. That's good, Meg. What's yours, Dan? Shit quotes. That'd be up there. I think that it's just I can't not, I can't just sit still.

ADHD then. Yeah, like I'd love to, like, when I have a bath, that's my only time where I, there's absolutely nothing else, where I just can't sit on the couch and just. I have to be doing something. I thought it would be the toe walking. So Dolly's answer was the fact that sometimes my mouth is a little too big and a little too open. Give me a bullet. No, that was bullying.

He didn't even laugh. I was internally laughing. Okay, give me your bullets because that was bullying. No, he's just taking bullets off, not for bad games. If we're taking people's bullets for bullying, you shouldn't have any. By the way, if you missed the episode a couple of days ago, and we have a whole lot of Nerf bullets in studio, and we decided we'd award bullets to each other for good things.

things and then take them off each other for bad things. It's a stupid game. Well, how many have you got? Three. I got three. How many got me? Four. Oh, Meg's leading today.

Yeah. What was the question? Next question. I'm just making sure I understand it. What is your most marked yet? What is your most noticeable, defining or prominent characteristic? What do you think you're known for? No, well, like, if you go, probably you're funny, Dan.

People go, what's Dan's most well-known trait? I don't. I disagree. I don't think I'm funny. I'm one of these people that I'm funny as a result of things I've done. I'm not trying to be funny. Well, what do you think you're most well known for them? Philanthropy.

Oh, for your work with the orphans. I work with other people. And if I'm not smiling, then I make others do it. Yeah, I mean, you have famously been quoted saying that before. Clint, what do you think is your most well known for? It's probably just your hotness, right? Oh, thanks, babe. maybe it's for

being friends with lots of people like oh yeah it's friends yeah it's like wait stop what did you just say to producer Carl gave Dan a gag Dan used it no one laughed

and he went back and he said him go fuck you Carl that didn't land delivery that is this delivery it's a delivery just wait for a gab in the conversation before you make a gag because I think it's like if people over your funeral

if people over your funeral, what would they stand up and say? If they said, oh, Clint was friends with everyone. He could make friends with anyone. He was in the kick. That's probably what I would be, I think, known for. And that'd be okay. I think there are a lot of things I'd want to be known for, but that'd be a nice one.

Your most marked characteristic. People stand up and go, Meg, where do I start? Well, she... Probably my big tits. She had massive tits. I'm doing that at your funeral. And if no one will get it, Dan will laugh. Give me a bullet. I'll be up there going, well, Meg, wow, what can I say?

except for massive knockers. Her tips were huge. My most marked characteristic. What are my most well known for? People go Megan Mitzer. Oh, she's the girl that... Has tattoos on a vagina. True.

That's her. Fuck. She had herself at BP. I would like it to be empathy, but I don't know if it would be. I don't know. Empathy. Empathetic. Empathetic.

Empathetic? Empathetic. Not pathetic. Not pathetic. Not pathetic. Not pathetic. Empathetic, empathetic. Right.

Next question. Hey. What or who is the greatest love of your life? My wife. My wife? I was going to say waz or football. My husband and my kids. Well, obviously after that.

I didn't say that. I didn't say after your kids and your wife. Well, what Jolene say? Yeah, same thing. She said to her husband. Her name's Dolly. Everyone says that. You should say outside of the obvious, what is the love of your life?

Okay. your kids and your wife, what is your love of your life? Okay, Dan. Oh, that's a good question. I would probably say rallying in motorsport. Oh, yeah. Do you know, I literally will just wait all week to get on the football pitch and then I'll be fizzing

and then when the game's over, I'm like, even though if we've won it's fun hanging out the boys, I'm like proper depressed, I've got to wait another week for that. I also like to just be in bed. Lazy. Yeah, I just like, I just love looking forward to being, oh, fuck's sake. Put in those big

Tins to go out. Yeah, moing, moing, moing, moing. Oh, fuck, Clint, that was too far, bullet. Yeah, give me and to me. Because I deserve that. No, you don't. And two, it's two. Fuck.

Who are the heroes in your life? My mum, number one. And just all women. Oh, cool. You treat me like shit. True. No, okay, my mom. Okay.

I'm definitely not you then. My mom, and I'd probably say in terms of professionalism and how I do my humour. Don't know. Ricky Javais. Oh.

Like, I'm not a speck on Ricky Javais, obviously, but that's how, he's like my humour. You're not a speck on Ricky Javis, obviously. You don't need to say obviously because it's fucking obvious. That's why I say obviously. I don't want people going, oh, he thinks he's as good. Did you try and compare him to Ricky Javis,

even just a little bit. Yeah, it's sad. Yeah. No, but not in a way that I'm like, he's, I'm copying him, if anything, and I'm not as good. Whoa. Heroes in your life, clamp. Hmm.

Well, again, you just go for the generic, like, answer, like your parents or, you know, whatever. I'm trying to think it's something a little bit unique. It would be a unique hero in your life. People would go, huh, didn't know they had that kind of an impact on Matthew McConaughey. What? Fucking, oh, my God. Fucking, that's, he was more. He was more serious than...

Have you read Greenlight? The book? Man, that guy's got some... He's lived a life, man. He's got a lot of knowledge to impart. So, read Greenlight, if you haven't read that. You're not a speck on McConaughey, mate. Absolutely not.

Obviously. And final question, final question for this podcast. How would you like to die? She was asked this in 2012. Instantly. What? Like, right now? Are you depressed?

No, but you know how sometimes you hear people when they go, died instantly. I go, fuck good, nice. Yeah, you know, like lovely,

you know, obviously there's probably a bit of terror before that maybe if it's a car crash or something, you see the car coming. But I would want to be quick. Like,

just die in my sleep. Well, that's different. Yeah, which one do you want? You've been hit by, you've been hit by fucking bus. Because I remember,

the first time I ever experienced somebody saying they got died instantly was the, that character on the Titanic and then you see that big chimney fall on their head

and I'm like that or the guy that hits the propeller. Dong. Or you went into some. like Titus submarine thing and it imploded. To be honest,

they would not have known. I hated that. I hated that whole thing. We were just waiting to see if they're going to come up to the surface. Anyway, Clint, how would you like to die? Maybe in some sort of like some sort of... Fuck here we go, Dan.

Dad, here we fucking go. I want to die saving children from a burning. fire. But how did you die? Why, died trying to rescue them so I got them out. He didn't rescue them. I got the girl out. I got the boy out and then I went back in to check if there was anyone else because there was a third sibling but then it turns out the third sibling was never even in the house and I end up dying of

smoke inhalation and I died. What a stupid idiot then. I'd go, what an idiot. He went back into the burning house and everyone was safe. What an idiot. Also, burning to this actually, not that fun. Maybe I should have drowned. Saving someone from... Drowning's fun. Shark.

Yeah. I want to die saving someone else's life and they go, what a hero. You idiot. You got, you got fucking a chimney floor on you. You're fucking loser. How did Dad die? Yeah, but it was instant. He was gone instantly.

She said singing on stage and everyone walking around saying, look how happy she looks. That was her final answer about how she liked to pass away, old dolly. I sort of part of me wants to go out and like kind of rock and roll way. A drive-by shooting. Yeah, or like, you know, I was just on a. big drug bender and died of an overdose. You know?

Like, no, no. No, I was like fully high. Dan, Dan, to be the first person to die from taking too much pan at all. Panadol. I'm like, yeah. Overe thinkers. Rover.
