This is a podcast from Rover.
This is the Overthinkers podcast.
Join us this morning.
Oh, yes, good to have you here.
You know that there's always a choice
isn't there with podcasts.
Oh, too, bloody many.
There's too many, if anything.
Get rid of the...
Do you reckon we could type to the search engine?
Go ahead.
21.
The most rogue-ass podcast and see if there's one for it.
Oh, there would be.
A new search chart.
Okay.
Bukaki podcast.
Oh, that's...
to take it there straight away.
Okay.
Well, I won't do that, then.
Meigs having a look.
Okay, I have got...
Miggs ruining her algorithm for you.
My algorithm is fucked, Clint.
It says, let me open up the actual podcast,
but it says,
Storytime, the most shocking bookaki night
I've ever experienced at a sex club.
I knew they would be.
Okay, you'll turn.
Okay, what's wrong with my dog?
Okay.
The podcast.
Oh, God, there definitely will be one of those.
It'll be a vet podcast.
Of course it will.
Really?
Just ask Chad GBT.
Oh, nothing's coming through yet.
Let me check what I'm playing.
What's wrong with my dog?
Podcast, let's see.
There isn't a single podcast named that,
but help my dog, the podcast.
Oh, yeah.
I think I've got the niche tie out there.
No bad dogs, the podcast, and shaped by dog.
So, yes, unfortunately, there are three people
that have already got that mark.
Give me another one.
Okay.
You found what?
No, no, I found this.
No.
I found this.
I found this inside of me.
Removed from the human body.
It might be a podcast like that.
Inside of you with Michael Rosenbaum.
Come Inside of Me.
By who?
That is by Tony Nagy.
No thanks, Tony.
What's happening inside of me?
Inside of me.
So there's a few there.
Let me see if there's one specifically on Spotify for you, Dan.
And then I'll send you the link for that one.
Thank you.
Yeah, yeah.
Wow, you really can just type in anything about anything.
You can.
You should be able.
two podcasts and shows.
No, no really.
Remember?
Did they were diagnosis?
I was prey.
Diagnosis.
Diagnosis.
Yeah, it's spelled exactly like that and I said it perfectly.
Okay.
You can't see my screen.
We were going to get our mum's member to do a podcast episode.
Oh, no.
We should still do that.
So we'd have Julie, Dan's mom, Philippa, Meg's mom, and then Christine, my mom.
And they're all going to do a podcast together.
Who would be the anchor, though?
Who would be like the Clint that sort of keeps everyone in line?
Because I feel like they're all pretty loose.
They are.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Because you, you know, you need like the one straight man.
Well, they're all women, so that'd be...
You know what I mean, but like the one person that's like, you know, straight down the middle.
Why would you need that?
I don't mean it in sexuality, but I mean it, you know, like, has in...
Why does it need to be a man and why do they need to be straight?
Well, you have three women.
Have you ever seen three women on a breakfast show, Meg?
No.
Today on the Overthinkers podcast.
We're overthinking.
All right, I've got a question for you guys.
I know, I know some people were like, oh, we're sick of the questions.
But we even have one in a while.
so I thought, you know what, I'll bring it back.
We're all sick of the questions anyway.
For those people, sorry.
Also, just before we get into the question,
just before we get into the question,
why are there no all three women podcasts,
all radio shows?
Oh, they're a podcast.
No, yeah, no, three women radio shows.
And, well, it's funny, Dan, because there are podcasts
that are successful, as you know,
the girls are uninterrupted and now let her talk,
extremely successful, one of the most successful podcasts in the world,
but would never be made into a radio show
because apparently people can't tell women's voices.
about. Well, girls uninterrupted
did used to be, I think, a radio
show on Kiss, and then I think they just
moved to podcasting so they became their own boss
because they got so big. Unless they still are on
Kiss. Brody Canaan and stuff. Oh, sorry, I'm
talking about girls uncut, the Aussie
girls, sorry. There's two
that we've just said then. Yeah, but I don't
know why they don't translate into radio shows.
It must be a reason. People would like freak out
when there were two girls one guy
on a radio show. I mean, we had that here at the edge
for a wee-well-one cup. That was never
a radio show, was it? We still do. They actually
London show. Clint, let me introduce you. It's got
a Yaz and Ash London on it.
Oh yeah. I think
if Yaz is one of the boys.
Yeah. I'm sure she'll love that.
The Two Girls One Cup podcast,
the Cup never said much. I couldn't get a word in.
Don't Google that. Fuck, I'm traumatised
from that. My friend made me watch that, Zoe,
like three months ago.
Oh wow, that's like, I've never...
I've never... I've never seen it.
Clint, let me tell you it's worse than
what you think it is. That's disgusting. I...
I feel sick, I don't want to talk about it.
It made me so angry.
People who don't know about it.
I thought it was something totally different.
I thought it was something totally different.
It was worse.
It was so much worse than I thought it was.
It's disgusting.
Anyway, let's move on, eh?
The question.
The memory trade.
Can you give me some sort of something?
I'll do it with the voice.
Yeah.
The memory.
Ready, Clint?
Yeah.
The memory trade.
Trade, trade.
You will become world class at any skill that you choose
instantly.
Instantly.
Singing, they don't need it anymore.
Singing, dancing, languages,
surgery, painting, whatever skill you choose.
In exchange, you must trade
one year of your life that you have already
lived. You get to choose
the year. That's easy. You do not know
how it will affect your future because the
memories of the year will go away completely.
What year do you choose
and what skill do you choose or do you walk away?
I wrote this a while ago.
I...
Can I be honest?
Yeah.
Wasn't really listening.
Are you fucking joking?
Because I was thinking about how I could go,
more stuff like this.
Can you can repeat the question?
You'll become world class at any skill.
Are you listening now?
Yeah, I am now.
No, you're not.
You're looking at it.
Clifling.
You're in it now.
I'm into it.
You're still looking at Clint.
I can see.
Clint, turn away.
Turn around.
What's not my fault?
Now what I'm going to go in the corner?
Turn around.
You can't fucking babe.
Dan.
Yeah.
You will become world class.
Don't look over.
Don't distract me.
You will become world class
at any school that you choose in stilly.
Singing, dancing, language.
So I can choose the skill.
You can choose the skill.
In exchange, you must trade one year of your life
that you have already lived.
You get to choose the year
and you don't know how it will affect your future
because your memories will go with that year.
You won't remember a single thing before that year.
What year in school do you choose or do you walk away?
Right.
Easy.
Oh.
Easy.
That's easy for me.
What year would you give away?
I think it would be any year
between 2013 and 2015.
So that's 2014.
No, but including 2013 and 2015.
Okay, so you were 20...
23 to 25.
Whereas with...
Your ex?
My ex.
She was a fucking...
Just such a mong.
One time...
I can't say maybe beat that.
Yeah, I got it, bro.
Don't worry.
It's because she's like, one time we're watching television
and she goes, oh, that's a cute dog.
It was a baby
Baby lion
Yeah
Anyway
But um
So you wouldn't forget about that
You'll be pleased
If that was just a nightmare
And she was just a shit
Like three years
But the whole year
We'll be gone
That's fine
Yeah there was
I could
I literally couldn't remember
Anything from those years
Apart of being miserably bored
Learn anything from that relationship
though
That benefited you
When you met you
Not really
No not to be
No
Not to be with a crazy person
Has a crazy family
But don't they have
Don't they have
Was she part of the crazy
Hot Matrix
Like you know
You put up with crazy
If she's super hot
Like the crazy
She necessarily wasn't crazy.
She wasn't crazy, but her family was.
Okay.
So you've swapped this entire year of your life, 2410, let's say.
What skill are you expert in now?
Best driver in the world, Formula One, Lightning McQueen, Human Version.
Why could you just say the best?
Why could you say Kimmy Altanelli or whatever his name is?
Because I wouldn't say he is the best driver in the world.
Lightning McQueen, I wouldn't have thought it would be on most people's top ten.
No, but Lightning McQueen, in the space of like, because I've only just got
into the Cars movies recently.
So he's top of mind.
Someone has been giving me shit for watching Game of Thrones
like last year.
I know, to be fair, I've just never watched them.
Now I'm all about them.
And so Lightning McQueen
and the sphere of the cars world,
he is the best in the world, isn't he?
Yes, he is.
And so...
So you're the best driver in the world.
I'm the best, like, Lewis Hamilton on steroids.
Like, everybody's like,
like, probably where Michael Schumacher was.
Because they're going to make you Lewis Hamilton
and then be on steroids.
But you just want to be the best of.
Somewhere where, like, Lewis, I mean, I'm a mix between Michael Schumacher,
Eton Senna and Lewis Hamilton.
Okay.
With mixed for Stappen-rolled into it as well.
Wow.
I'm the best they're ever lived.
Wow. Unbeatable.
Incredible.
Okay, so he gives me shit for how late I was to the party on Game of Thrones.
Came out in 2011.
Cars came out in 2006.
Yeah, but it's for kids.
It's for a child.
It's for kids.
It's for kids.
It's not four kids.
Yes, I've seen cars.
Yes.
My husband won a quiz on the Disney cruise for, for the country.
Yeah, and let me guess he's got the hots for Porsche.
Yeah, but he doesn't like how she shits on Lightning McQueen.
Oh yeah, through the mud.
He goes to the mud.
There's not mud.
There's no mud. If you look at that scene again, she does not drive through mud beforehand,
but he gets splattered and brown.
Tell me how that happened.
But cars don't shit.
Well, I don't know.
You watch it again.
Clint, are you swapping a year?
Yeah, but which year?
Probably the year you let, like, dubs out of a thing at your wedding.
I can't get rid of it.
I can't get rid of the first year my marriage.
That was probably the most sex.
Oh, what about the year that you did New Zealand Idol?
That was fucking embarrassing.
21.
Yeah, but then that sort of gave me an opportunity to do lots of other, like, TV and stuff.
So if I erase that.
But you still did it, though.
I still did it, though.
I still did it.
You don't remember it, but you still did it.
You still did it.
Oh, no, no, you erase the year.
No, you can't.
It's gone.
Bing.
And out.
It would definitely affect where I end up.
So I can't get rid of that year.
What about the year you did the Harker on the bus?
I can't erase a whole year just for that one memory.
I would.
I would.
What about those embarrassing years you had when you were like 17
and you were writing on Facebook?
Oh yeah.
I was thinking that.
It's multiple years though me.
A high school year might be, no, wouldn't I?
No, isn't the obvious people probably screaming at this podcast.
Wouldn't you just erase the years of like two to three?
when I was like two years old.
Your brain's building so much then.
I would be scared to see how that changed me.
Your brain is building the most ever will, I think.
So I'm like a year behind.
Yeah.
I mean, you wouldn't be able to talk or walk.
Very delayed.
I don't, that would affect you real bad, I reckon.
Maybe I'd take, okay, maybe I'd take like,
intermediate, first year intermediate.
I hated that.
Oh, yeah, you did.
I used to, every lunchtime I used to go to the sick bay,
and I just like sit there.
You didn't meet a friend then?
You didn't meet kiss or anything?
No, we're friends the first day of primary school.
So I just sat in the sickbay every morning tea and every lunchtime.
That's sad.
It's just like sitting there because I hated school and had friends.
Okay, so you've swapped first year of intermediate.
Thank you.
I'll take that away from you.
Billing?
Done.
Yep.
What skill are you an expert in now, Clinton?
Let me type it up.
Okay, I knew it.
Oh my God, you're a loser.
No, it makes me think he sucks at it now.
No, that's actually a waste.
Because then the only person that gets to be.
benefit from that is my wife.
She'd be like, God damn he's good. And then anyone just has to take her word for it.
Wouldn't you say? I thought you would say now that you're quite good at it.
Yeah, but the best in the world.
Oh, but fuck who cares?
And there's no way to measure that.
No one's going, he's the best sex in the world.
There's no person that is that.
Producer Carl?
Incorrect. Sex is actually registered as a sport in their annual
competitions held.
Would you like me to get the winner on?
Not really.
Who is the winner? Can you tell us who and what they?
did to win the gold?
Yeah, I don't know, actually.
Do they bang the judges?
I'm not sure.
But anyway, I'm just thinking,
how would you know the best in the world?
That's how.
Yeah, but then I would also go then they've missed someone.
I think, yeah, God.
Because Meg, when you said the greatest surgeon,
you can make some crazy money.
But then I don't want to do surgery
and I don't like blood.
Like, I don't like, when people show you, like,
I don't mind on a video,
but I think in real life with a snap bone.
I thought it'd be very hard convincing people
that you're the world's best when you've done no training.
Yeah, I think it would be a professional footballer.
I was going to say.
Messi or Ronaldo.
I mean, those guys are earning hundreds of millions anyway.
And I get to do what I hang out for all week,
which is to play football on a Saturday.
Oh, it's not to hang out with us?
No, I literally just live week to week for football on a Saturday.
He only hangs out with us for the money, Meg.
Yeah, I get paid to do that.
He literally gets paid to hang out with you.
And you can.
Oh, yeah.
And you can pay to hang out there.
Do you think it's a waste with your driving
and I'm ignoring both of you
You're driving and your football
I think you're both thinking like
I will be a Formula One driver
No you are you just have the skill
You would then have to go to a rally raceway
In Ellesley
And prove that you're very good
I'd be gutted because there's no fucking rally raceway in Alasley
But anyway
I'll get there to know what
We didn't take it
Clint you'd be the best
You'd be the best that your social sport
And then I'm guessing you'd want to be discovered
but you know I've had to be discovered at 40
I've dropped the ball there because
no one's but if I'm the best in the world
like surely I've become here
but you have to prove it but you're not in the team
you don't instantly poof become into the team
I would instantly I'd go over
I'd book the next flight to America
or to London I'd go to London
and I go to Brackley where
Mercedes is
yeah
yeah Dan can prove his skill
easier than I can prove mine
because I need a scout to give me an opportunity
take to the field as an unknown
Dan will just do a timed lap and they'll go, holy shit, no one is the best.
Clint, they wouldn't let him.
In the car.
They wouldn't let him in the car.
You were just a random dude flown over and said, I'm the best of the world.
They go fucking crazy person.
I say, I will pay you my life savings, which is quite a lot of money.
And I'd go, I'm willing to put that on the line to give me any car an old one.
I will go out on your test track and I will fucking beat the best time in it.
You put Lewis Hamilton in the car and I will beat him.
And they go, security.
Security.
And I'll go, you don't do you.
Get your hands off me!
I don't want to get out there!
I gave him a year of my life on this!
You go, what?
Yeah, yeah, no, he gave a year of his life.
What the face random?
See, I think I would choose something tangible like painting
where I could paint and be the best of the world
and then just sell it.
It's so subjective.
You can't prove it.
You can't prove it.
I can paint something amazing and put it on Instagram.
You can't tell me that, like,
the Mona Lisa is the greatest painting that anyone's ever done.
It's just valuable because of the first.
Of the fame and the person who's now dead.
I reckon you could be a good singer.
Yeah, maybe I do singing.
You could be coming in the world.
Then I also do wonder there's a lot of phenomenal singers
who just haven't been, that...
Even you hear them, you go, these guys are amazing,
why aren't they bigger?
They haven't been given an opportunity.
Fuck, I'm not hot enough.
No, but that's what it is.
You'd have the Susan Boyle effect.
You'd have the Susan Boyle effect.
No, that's rude.
Oh, fuck.
You'd need to go on like one of those shows.
You'd walk on and they'd go, here we go.
But, but...
But Meg, you're smart at least to know
there's an entry into proving how good you are
with New Zealand's Got Talent or Exfactor or The Voice.
Whereas Dan is just a crazy man wanting to drive a $5 million car.
Give him a fucking car!
You'll never be able to prove it.
Yeah, you're so right.
You've got to find a way to actually allow the world to see how good you are.
I know what I'll do.
I'll go in there with a bomb strapped to me.
And I'll go, I'm going to blow this fucking thing.
place up if you don't get me in a car
I've got it and I have
the thing I'm literally dad they've got the swap team on you
I'm holding my finger on a buzzer and if I
let go so they kill me my finger
let's go and it explodes
problem is now Dan's going to drive with one hand
so I'm going to go and also can I say
that dad also is not good
and he hasn't swapped a life
for being good at making bombs so it probably doesn't go
I buy the bomb when you buy the bomb
black market so I've got all the answers
anyway so I go on the
I go, I'll blow this fucking place wide open
if you don't get me in last year's Formula One car.
I blow the bloody doors off.
Anyway, I'm only going to blow the bloody doors off.
And I'll be like, oh, we can replace the doors.
And then they get me in the car.
I'm fucking one-handed with the bombs still strapped to me.
I'm fucking changing gears, doing everything with one hand.
Tears that, if you could see Lucky Hatter right now.
Yeah, I'm fucking, Tonya Woolf's going,
what, fuck it is the best?
And then what?
And then you get out of the car,
and they're like, thank you for not blowing all of us up.
Here's a Formula One contract.
I'm a weirdo.
And then I go sign up, let my thing.
Boom.
Dan goes, thank you very much.
Let's go on the bomb and shake us on his hand.
Both of them gone.
Fucking idiot.
Do you know what I reckon is real niche meg,
but it might be a good way to earn a living and become famous?
Become the world's best impersonator.
You can do everyone exactly like they do.
And I think you'd get fucking massive online.
World's best hacker.
Oh, it feels like I've got to be mean
still other people's money
Impersonating's hard
money, I wouldn't care
Impersonating is hard though
because you need
Because there's a lot of good
impersonators out there
but you need to be the only one doing it
You know what I mean?
You know how most impersonators
can do like seven or eight people really well
I can do anyone in the world
Perfect
Who can you do?
Anyone
Okay
Who do you want to do?
Marge Simpson
Hey Homer
Hey oh wait
Hey Homer
Fuck he is good
Alright okay
I'm already good at that action
That is only one.
Oh, I know you're good at this one, Kermit.
Kermit the Brat.
Oh, fuck it then, that's not bad.
Okay.
Shit, he is good.
Donald Trump.
China.
Sometimes the best impression is this one word.
Okay.
Kerry Knightley in love actually.
Bonafie Pah.
Brilliant.
Jackie Chan and the tuxedo.
No.
See you later, boys.
He goes, what's that line?
Then he goes.
He can't say three words in Chinese.
My English?
Ha, ha, ha.
How funny is that?
Overthinkers.
Rover.
Music, radio, podcasts.
