This is a podcast from Rover.
This is the Overthinkers podcast.
That's not a nice internal voice to start the podcast.
Honestly, my internal voice is a horrible, horrible person.
Yeah, mine hasn't been good to me recently either, Dan,
so we're in the same.
I feel to you, if you were one of these people listening right now
where your internal voice has knocked your friend.
Yeah, but Dan was getting specifically annoyed at himself
because of the diet that he has put away just this morning.
alone.
Well, we had the radio awards last night,
so we're all feeling,
I don't know why,
because I was in bed by 8.30.
Sad.
But I, I, yeah,
we got McDonald's delivered,
because there is people here
that went out last night
and sat out to 1 a.m.
And so we got McDonald's and stuff delivered.
And me and Clint said no.
Yeah, well, list the items.
Oh, come on.
No, because the little man that's inside me,
the guy that's, um...
How often have you got men inside you?
He's always in there.
So he's in and out,
every day, like sometimes, sometimes, anyway.
Okay.
Did you have a man?
Egg McMuffin.
I had a
massive McMuffin.
There we go,
yeah, a massive one.
And then I said,
why not have a NYC Benedict bagel?
So you had a bagel and a massive McMuffin?
Yeah, and a hash brown.
How many hash browns?
Oh, that was nice.
Oh, I have two.
I had two.
And now then Carl...
You had a pre-worker.
You had an energy drink.
Carl, our fucking punish of an executive producer,
just came in.
And he's in bed with crispy cream.
He always gets crispy cream.
And he comes in with a camera
because he knows they only send it to him
because he's a little bitch for their stuff.
And so then he comes in here with another crispy cream thing,
filming me getting one.
And I'm the performer that I am.
I was like, oh, give me one.
Yeah, half of that.
And so now I've eaten half a thing.
And he'll finish it.
Oh, it's because it's there.
I brought in birthday cake from...
Had a bit of birthday cake.
From guys' birthday last night that I made.
Hey, yo.
I know.
It's really bad.
Literally last night, Clint, I said to myself,
from now on, because I couldn't fit into my pants.
Yeah.
And you didn't try them on before the night,
which is wild that Dan thought he would still fit his weather.
soon. Again, mate, only a few, if you
have a think it's podcast, I'm only a few
episodes ago, Dan literally said, I
can't put on weight. No, but the thing
is, I don't, like, in terms of KGs,
I've been the same, in and around two KGs
of, I think I'm at 85, 86.
Yeah. And I'm saying, because I weighed myself
yesterday, I'm like, where's it going? But there must
be weight going on to me, but it's just...
I think you're losing muscle gaining fat.
That'll be it.
That'll be it.
Reduce it Carl.
KFC just message me. They said, do you just do,
about shouting breakfast, do you just want
usual zinger? Dan? Yeah, I haven't
singer for lunch. Zinger stacker.
Get the stacker. Get the stacker.
Treat yourself to the film. I don't think I can do my usual stacker.
I might just have the normal zinger. A couple of wicked
wings, yep. Wicked wing, definitely. I don't know what we
were talking about, but I think we might have
been talking about running on the show and right now
we're recording this. Somebody texts and saying, how
us are you going to get all that pie fat off
Dan? I don't know why they mentioned that.
They've got nothing to do about it.
I think the radio show. Yeah.
Honestly, I'm one of those people, I think, like if I went to
the doctor, because I'm not, you don't look at me and go,
oh, he's morbidly obese.
You don't.
You're rotten inside.
But I think I've got that thing where I'm just like skinny fat.
You know, like where people go, oh my God.
Like if they looked at my insides, it'd be like looking at like the inside of a chicken wall.
I've got one of those scales, if you want.
I've got the scales that tell you all the insides.
Do you know what I reckon you're inside of B?
Have you ever, every now and then you go, why is the water not running down the shower plug hole as well as you used to?
And then you lift it up and it's got all the hair and all like the gunk inside and you're like pulling it out of the drain.
That's probably what your insides are like.
It's nice.
Just like gungy, just gross stuff
You just don't want to touch it
Yeah, I wouldn't like to know
Actually, I don't want to see the stats and figures
What's inside me
I won't put the man
Yeah, I'd just like to know that there's that little man
That's all
That little fella
What does he do?
He's got a negative little prick
Oh, he's just telling you shit out
Yeah, he's just telling me you're useless, you suck
Yeah, you're not good, you're fat
That sort of stuff
What do you tell him?
Oh
You just tell him?
I try to be nice to him
To sort of cheer him up
But he's, no, he's still mean
Anyway, I call him Clint
It's good to give them a name actually
I saw somebody
Me and my little guy best mate
Who was it? Ariane Grande
When she has that voice inside her
Yeah
She gave the voice a name
So and I thought this was a really good tactic
Because I started using it
So you actually should give them a name
Say pick a name of somebody you don't like
If that's easier or somebody that don't know
So it doesn't stick to them
I'm going to say Sandra
And you call them Sandra
And then whenever that voice comes up
Of like you are pathetic
You're disgusting
ugly, everyone's talking
behind your back, you go, not now, Sandra.
Pick off, Sandra. Fuck off.
Does it not have time for it? Crazy though?
Or you just get to the point, you do it in your head.
And when you give them like a persona, then they go, all right.
Or you can be nice to me. You're like, I don't need that right now.
Like, I'm busy, I don't need it.
And they go, alright, see you later.
Because sometimes they're making yourself aware.
Yeah, it's like a, yeah.
And if you give it a different person,
then a different personification in your head,
she got it from her therapist, and she must have expensive therapists, you know?
Who would you name your little man?
Well, I don't know.
What is the perfect name?
Because if you give them a real shit name because you hate them,
but you're right,
sometimes you want to like your inner voice eventually.
Yeah.
So what's the best name to give them?
It's like a name that sometimes is a bit snarky and bitchy,
but then there are times, and they're really lovely,
and they try really nice.
Do you want a man or a woman?
I think I need to have a man.
Yeah, you want a man in you.
Man's voice.
I always thought that you were gay.
Is that your inner voice speaking out loud?
Yeah, that was Guido.
Quido.
Quito is a good one.
Steve.
Steve could be your mate and you can also be,
fuck up Steve.
Don't you look odd though if you're doing that?
You're just walking down the street.
You go, shut up, Steve.
No, you do it in your head.
You do it in your head.
If you're in your car, I say it out loud.
I go, fuck off Sandra.
I don't need it.
I don't need it right now.
Saundra just sounds like a bitch.
I like Guido.
I like that.
It's kind of cute, but I go ahead.
Fuck up, Greedo.
What do you know?
Is yours name Guido?
You're not going to be talking to yours much anyway, Clint.
Don't worry about it.
Yours is going to be celebrating a lot.
I'm like, Guido.
Thanks for that, man.
I needed the GM.
Guido's just like this little, like, deaf guy.
He's like, Clint, you're amazing.
You're going to score goals in this game.
And I'm going to go, thanks, Guido.
He's got an Italian accent if he's named Guido.
Oh, Clint, you're so good.
Oh, Clint, you are amazing.
Amazing, everything you do.
And I'm like, oh, thanks, buddy.
Yeah, good idea.
Just try and look it up and make sure.
I'm sure that's what the...
Trauma therapist told her to acknowledge the thoughts
by giving them a name
and then asking them politely to give her space.
And so she says,
I ask them to go and get coffee.
She'll be like, Sandra.
Sandra, can you just pop out and get some coffee?
I just don't need you right now.
You know, just go and get yourself a coffee.
Sandra goes, all right, go and have a cup of tea.
But then do you physically go and get a coffee?
No, no.
It's like, apparently, this is what,
yeah, Harriana Grandinor's trauma therapist did
because she's been through a lot of trauma, Miss Ariana.
She learned to acknowledge the thoughts
by giving them a name
and then asking them politely to give her space,
such as asking them to step out for 50 minutes, get a coffee.
That's where I got a little weird for me.
I was into it until that weird.
really, so you don't like that.
We're sending them off to do hypothetical, like, make-believe tasks.
Then I would sort of start resenting them with, because I didn't get a coffee.
Yeah, you go, where the fuck is Sandra with my...
I've lost it.
I've lost it.
I would look crazy.
I've lost it.
Okay, have you ever wondered what it's like inside the Mansell residence,
behind the scenes of Instagram and the, you know,
just the beautiful sites and stuff that we get to see?
I don't think about anything more.
Like, that's all I think about.
You just think about what goes.
Sometimes I just sit at home and sit in silence and go,
I wonder what the mansils are doing.
You need your own, like, reality TV show.
Like, maybe just cameras in the house.
You can just like...
Keeping up with the mansils.
Look, it was...
I've said this on the end before.
I've been, we've all been pretty tired with...
We've got sickness, all of us three here.
And there has been...
My baby, Miller, Millie, has been sick
since she was about six and a half, seven months old.
She is coming up to 11 months.
We have not had a day where she hasn't had a cough, a runny nose, a fever,
like some sort of vomiting.
Like it's just there's always something there.
You know, we get to the point we're like, okay, we've got two weeks of this.
It's not contagious.
You know, you must be getting better.
And then it never really goes slash something new starts.
So she has been sick for a long time.
And I guess that's what just happens with sick and babies.
They say even if your toddler isn't thick, the bugs that she brings home that she's kind of immune to,
we change Daisy's clothes.
get her to wash her hands.
There's no, I've learned that you can't avoid it as much as you try to.
And so Millie the other night wasn't going down to sleep.
She's got a block nose very hard for a baby that likes a dummy to go down to sleep.
And you're supposed to do that, you know, suck it out, eh?
Even though it's your own kid.
Yeah, and she hates that.
And you did we do a try?
You can buy one of those suction things, but, you know, some parents will just suck it out.
I actually find it quite satisfying.
I don't do it with my mouth, but I do it with a tube, and I find it very satisfied,
but she doesn't seem to like it.
So we're trying to get it down, and this night was actually going to be movie night.
We told I daughter Daisy,
because she had recently been sick
and she'd had a bit of a rough weekend.
Let's do family movie night.
We do it very rarely
and it's a real special thing when we do
where we say, right,
we used to do it before Millie went down,
was born but when Miller gets down,
we'll watch a movie together,
sit on the couch and get takeaways.
And it's a real joy for all three of us
because, you know, it's all been rough
and Daisy's been very patient
as a four-year-old,
four-and-half-year-old girl
with Miller.
And it just so happened that
on the night that we were doing movie night,
Miller wouldn't go down.
Me and Guy were going back and forth
and holding her and rocking her
and giving her what she needed.
But because of that,
that meant my four-year-old
had to be very patient and wait for dinner.
I kept saying to her,
you can start eating.
You can start eating.
The food had arrived.
I was keeping it warm in the oven.
And she said, no, I want to wait for daddy.
And when I was in the bedroom,
she'd go, no, I want to wait for mummy.
So she's waiting and waiting
and waiting for the movie to start.
Mario cut three, two, I think.
We wanted to watch.
At one point, we got to like 45 minutes.
and Guy was trying to get Miller down at this point
and Daisy went to the bathroom
and as she was coming back and up the hallway
she was pulling her pants up and she goes
fucking how that baby
what did he say?
Brilliant
now she's learnt that
that's a learned phrase that is
fucking hell that baby
and it wasn't to me
it wasn't like she didn't look at me afterwards
and like think that it was a bad thing that she was saying
which is very bad for me because she doesn't realize
that's like
yeah it is pretty cute
when a kid swears that. And her tone
was perfect. And I've said this before.
She's only ever done a couple of times.
The other time I think I talked about is a man,
guy, we were in a big park, and he was kicking
a ball really high as high as you could kick it.
Try to make her laugh, and we were sitting on this picnic back,
and she goes, wow, fuck me.
It's like, it's in perfect context, and it's in perfect tone,
and it's not to us. It's not, and so I keep being like,
oh, you can't, you can't say that, you can't do that,
you can't talk like that.
She'd be like, why? You talk like that.
I know, and so they're mirrors.
Kids are mirrors.
And you don't realize it.
You don't realize, you just need to look at your kid to realize what you're like as a human.
Do you snap?
Fucking out of that, baby.
Fucking out of that baby.
Just like that.
I do wish I recorded it, although I'd be rated online because people would be like that.
Well, you would need to record it if you let us put cameras in your house.
True.
And maybe we can only tune at certain hours so you know when it's coming on.
So then you can, you know, somewhat act up to the camera if you'd like.
I'm sorry I'm just calling SIFs.
Oh, Dan, don't even joke about it. It freaks me out.
Oh, so I'm just joking.
It was just my mum.
Julie would love that.
I just need a number to die also.
She's going to get a random one about that.
I text her and say, just don't ask questions, answer and just say Siff speaking.
I love that.
Siff speaking.
Hello, Siffs, Julie.
Hello, it's Siffs.
Siffs is Siffs.
Hello, Siffs.
Please report for your child.
We go to.
for a fucking internal burn.
That's so bad.
I read a book
yesterday, fantastic book,
by the way, if you're looking for a book recommendation,
amazing book.
And she, one of the characters,
does this thing,
because she doesn't know how to be a nice person.
She pretends there's cameras in her house.
Oh.
I know.
She said, because her mom said to her,
because I think she actually is a psychopath,
sociopath, which she doesn't know how to,
you know that sociopaths don't know how to emote.
Yeah.
So I think that genuinely is what she's like,
but her mum said to her, you know what I do?
I pretend there's cameras at all times.
Does that mean you're a good person?
Because people say, I judge character on how you treat weight staff.
I judge character on how you treat your family when the doors are closed.
That's how I judge people.
And it's interesting you say that because I know families from when I was younger,
especially specifically friends that I was close with at school,
and you go home to their house.
And on the surface level,
You would go, the Joneses.
And you go, oh, it's lovely here.
But then when you stayed over, like, the night,
and sometimes you'd see some cracks.
And I was a very, like, I was a bit of an odd kid.
Like, I noticed shit.
Oh.
No, Dad, there's no way.
Oh, you've got that wrong.
Like, shit that other kids wouldn't notice.
I would notice, you know?
So I would, like, notice, like, messiness in places.
And I'd go home, and I'd tell my mom,
and I'd be like, oh, I went over to the Smiths the other day.
and she'd be like, I always knew there were,
there's something going on there, odd.
The mother's very, like she's very,
never speaks, the husband.
And, you know, so there would, yeah, and it's strange you say that.
How you treat your family,
family specifically, behind closed doors,
is how I judge you.
And it's hard to know what that is,
but that's how I judge her in a human being,
not how you treat people in public,
to the white staff,
where people are watching you,
how do you do it to your family
when no one's watching?
The people that are meant to, you know,
they love you the mind.
Well, the funny thing is, is I'm reading, or I just finished reading a book, J.P. Pomerter, a New Zealand author.
And it's called The Last Guests.
And it's really about the fact that there's this guy who will hire out now, I'm petrified, Airbnbs, and then he goes in, and he, like, drills into the walls and stuff, and finds little places, and he puts cameras all into the bedrooms and the bathroom stuff.
Then he re-plasters and paints the wall and does all the thing and whatever, leaves like, he gets like a hair inside a plastic bag,
leaves it on the pillows
so it looks like somebody
stayed there
and did all the things
and whatever
tips some of the milk
down the sink
and then puts it back
and then leaves
and then they go
oh yeah cool
leaves a great review
whatever
then he sets up this business
where these people
online can go
and it's called
peephole
and they'll go
to all these different
Airbnbs that he's
gone to
set up these cameras
and then he sells
subscription services
so people can watch
when these other people
come into the Airbnb
and have sex and stuff
what the heck
that man thought of
that idea? Because I believe
that that is something that absolutely has
happened and does happen. That scares me. How did
he think of that? I think
about that with authors. You sit there and go, and authors
and movie writers, you go, well, what? Hold on.
That's pretty fucked up your brain and thought of that.
If you find a camera when you're in Airbnb
once and then you just go, imagine if, and then
I don't know, maybe it escalates, you'd like to give him the benefit of the
doubt that he didn't do it. But now I'm just like,
how do you know people that are renting out there
are own Airbnb's don't have all these hidden cameras?
And then there are these little weird sex
maniacs just like watching us live our lives inside their Airbnb for a few nights.
Imagine if the place that I was staying at that time when I forgot to flush the toilet and had to throw my poo over the bank,
if they had cameras installed.
I wish.
They would be able to sell that footage.
Yeah.
God, I was all stressed.
I went in there.
I'd love to see how far you threw it.
I was huffing and puffing and hannah was sitting there cross arm like this just like angry looking over me.
Like what are you going to do with that?
And I had it on like a fucking spatula.
And dad would have thrown it all of him.
About eight feet?
Where does the spatula go back?
Because I, so, so we went,
the long story short,
we were staying in a batch
and I pooed in the,
just before we were about to go home,
I've told this at Borsium.
And I'd forgotten that the toilet
that I used was broken.
And I was like,
I'll get back to that
and sort that out before we leave.
I forgot about it.
And then so we drove off
halfway back to Auckland.
And then I remembered
when we got to,
to Tito,
that I had not flushed the toilet.
I told Hannah,
she said we had to go back.
back. It was like an hour and a half back to go.
Imagine that 90 minute drive.
And so then we went back to the house.
And I remember looking into the toilet
and the poo was there.
In fact.
Well, it was, but it had been in the water for so long
that it had lost consistency.
That's new information.
That is new information.
And I mainly remember I was like,
because I got a spatula out and we're going to have to replace that
because they had quite a few spatulas.
Oh yeah, yeah, okay.
Yeah, so there's like four spatulas.
And so I took that.
and I'll just have to replace it.
And so I remember
wrapping the...
I think I remember I wrapped the spatula
because spatulas are corrugated
so they have holes in them
so it wouldn't have contained the shit.
So I remember I had to like wrap it in toilet paper
and going and I remember going and fishing and then
knowing that the toilet paper was
disintegrating because that's what it's designed
to do when it's water. And so I
got and had to get a paper towel, wrap the thing
of the paper towel and I fished it out
and then Hannah standing there like
she had to leave the room and to like walk over.
It's covered in my murky shit
because it's like...
I went over to the side
and the house was on like a side of a bank
and I just remember just fucking close my
and just flinging it.
No, but what about
when you have thrown the spatula as well?
Everything?
No, just the, I think it was just the
poo.
Where is the spatula?
I don't know what we did with it.
I think we just drove home with it.
Drove it home with it.
Oh, just straight in the bit.
Oh, because you don't want to put in the bings as in the end of us.
No, because then they go, why is the spatula in the bit?
Oh, yeah.
Good, cool, cool.
Yeah, and it was one of those places
where you have to take the rubbish with you.
There was like a refuse station, so we took that.
That's probably what I did.
I threw it in there.
So you've wrapped it in toilet paper.
Do you know, we might have to do it with busters, Clint.
We've wrapped it in murder weapon.
You've been wrapped up in paper towels.
It's all soggy and wet.
You've got shit on it and you fling it.
Would it just slip off?
Like, would it just slide off and go and go?
I can't remember.
No, I think from memory, the poo just went.
And then it was the wrapping was still on there.
And I remember sort of just discarding of the whole time.
Was Hannah pregnant by then?
Oh, God.
This was years ago.
So she wasn't even, like, really tied to you in terms of a child.
I think we're engaged.
It was pretty, like, made.
Oh, my God, you weren't even married.
So she still had a chance to back out and she's still.
Yeah.
Wow, what else are you serving up that allows you to get away with that type of shit?
Oh, you don't know.
Oh.
Do you know what I mean?
Like, there's pros and cons to every person and every marriage and relationship.
You have a lot of cons that you've shared on here, which are hilarious and we love you for it.
What are the pros that she's getting?
I don't know.
I think I'm just a very loving man.
I'm very kind.
I'm very kind. I then behind closed doors at home, he's a very
different guy in the way that I think he's just
like, he's a, like, stopy piece of shit with her.
I'm not, no, I actually could be much more affectionate.
I'm not a very affectionate person.
Really? Yeah, like, I think I'm just...
A bit of a push-over. I don't know what it is that she sees with me.
No, you do. Don't. Hey, do. Hey, Guido, guido, fuck off.
Guido. Goet go get me a coffee.
I'm a long black.
Are we doing it?
Yep, hit the jams, baby.
Producicke.
Just quickly.
Dan, there's free pies out in the kitchen.
Did you want me to go grab you one, bro?
I'm a cheese one.
Yeah.
Okay.
And power raids, but the full sugar ones.
I could take a leave of a power rate if they've got it.
So two pies then?
No, just one.
One in one pie.
I got one.
Oh, I got one.
Oh, it's a white pad.
Oh, good day.
A good day.
Uh-huh.
Guess.
Okay, had one.
and I sucked it back up.
Okay, so I think it wasn't a big night for Clayton
because he went home the same time as me yesterday.
If he had gone out, I would have gone booze fart.
But unfortunately...
Damn it, I sucked it up, and now I'm scared.
We'd have to get a spatula on the ready.
Oh, God, a booze fight.
There's nothing worse when you were, like,
staying in the concert and somebody's done a beer fart.
Yeah, yuck.
Okay, I think I'm going to go just my tried and true.
It's going to be quite a tight one again.
Meg.
Oh, quite good to you.
Good.
Good.
By the way, Liam, Irish Liam.
He's been messaging me directly asking for guess the farts for him and his wife.
So I've been sending private ones.
So if you do want private ones, you can DM me.
Ew, yuck.
Liam.
Get a life.
Fuck, it was like I'd recorded it.
Damn, I pushed a little too hard at the end, and a little wee came up.
A fart that'll leave you with hairy eyes.
Guess the fart what's that smell?
A stinky mystery for us to one tail.
Guess the fuck.
Okay, well, that's us.
