This is a podcast from Rover.
Get the edge off your mornings with Clint Meg and Dan etch breakfast.
Good morning, it is.
One to six. Good luck, Richie.
He's finest of tech saying, just finished work.
Put him on call for the next two hours.
Wish me luck, team.
Hey, Richie's the security guard, isn't he?
Is he the security guard?
I think so, because he stays up kind of overnight, doesn't he?
Yeah, yeah. He's like Batman.
He protects us while we sleep.
We don't know the great work he's doing, but he's out there.
What would you be on call as a security guard for?
For people breaking in?
Oh, surely that's the new guys.
problem. You'd be like, I'm out, mate.
I finished at six. That's true. But maybe he needs
backup. You know, and they're like, when you're back up.
When he's back up, there's more than, there's five of them, Batman here.
He takes, yep, Batman here.
Now, Richie, do you like Batman wear your undies over your pants?
Because I only take advice from security guards to do that.
Do you think that Batman wore undies underneath and then the leggings and then
undies on top? Or did he just do leggings and undies on top?
These are all questions, Meg, which are too much for this early in the morning.
for the Overthinkers podcast after the show.
Right, sure. Yeah, maybe we're looking to that.
All right, if you want to go to Dom Lola, listen up for your cue to call.
There's going to be one that plays in every show.
Every show is a double-passer Dom Dola, so if you want to win yours,
listen out for it and be the first row on 0800, The Edge.
The Edge is the home of Clint McGahn.
Clint Meg and Dan. Time for a little coffee catch-up, a little whip around,
see what each other's been up to.
Kiyoda, morning.
Meg, you love fruit and veg, don't you?
Brilliant.
Yeah.
As a vegetarian.
each other.
I actually genuinely, you know what, Dad, I do love it.
I love all of it.
I eat it.
Every day I go home and have like this huge plate of raw vegetables and I love it.
And that's all she eats because she doesn't eat meat.
She has fish, meat and veg.
Yeah, that's it.
I mean, fish vegetables.
Anyway, so I've got this lovely man that lives opposite from me.
When I say lovely, he's a nightmare because he brings over, he's obviously got like a little garden
out the back of his house that he grows fruit and veg.
but he brings over all this deformed stuff
so like every week
every week we have a bucket on the
he comes over and knocks on the door and goes
hello you're home and I go
oh piss off honestly like under my breath
I don't say it to his face and then he'll give us
like a bucket of fruit and it's all deformed
like literally like a carrot but it's like split
three ways and like it's got some sort of
it's organic do you know how much more people pay for that
rotten strawberries
like potatoes that when you cut them in half
there's something inside them
like it's just constant and he brings them
over because they don't want to eat them.
I know why he does it because they don't want to eat them
him and him and his old wife so they bring
them over to us. He doesn't want to waste them.
I'll give him to that... Lovely couple.
And so yesterday, our house
looks out like over there so I can see him
coming from across the road and
dottering over to our place with all this rotten
deformed fruit. And so I saw
him coming yesterday and I
locked the door, told George
because I was my son, two-year-old son. I was like, let's go and
hiding the toilet. Come over here. So he hidden the toilet
and he comes and knocks on the door going, got some
fruit for you. Got some fruit.
We ignored him and he went, walked away.
Went out, he'd not only left
some deformed fruit and some deformed
vegetables, but also a half
eaten packet of cereal,
like this brand stuff which I would never eat.
That's weird. That's weird, eh?
That is weird. Weird. And like two
packets then of chocolate chip cookies
that I don't know if his wife is baked
or whether they've just got packets of chocolate chip cookies.
You are such a horrible, deeply horrible person.
Deeply, deeply horrible.
Yeah, I agree.
This little old man, lady, like this lovely young couple
that probably reminds them of them when they were younger
and we're at the prime of their life.
And they go, let's help them out.
Let's make this to pay.
Give us lovely bits of fruit.
He looks at your house, which to you is just across the road.
But for him, he's like, oh, that's a marathon.
He's not that old.
He's not that old.
No, he's not that old.
Like if you're that lovely, give us nice fruit.
Oh, piss off, dad.
actually can't stand you.
Yeah.
Or throw it out.
No one wants deformed rotten fruit.
Bring it for me.
And then he goes all the way to Danzell's knocked on the door.
It's going to be the highlight of the old man's day, having some human interaction.
And then he just hears you through the door going,
George, shh, he'll hear a shh.
I had my hand over towards his mouth like I kidnapped him.
Just in case he goes, we're in here.
That's going to be a therapy session one day.
My dad used to hide from this old man that gave us through.
I mentioned the old man.
He's looking around, waiting, waiting.
and then he like pans his head down and sees the car in the driveway
and he's like, be ignored again.
And we've tried to eat it.
Honestly, we've tried to cut up his deformed three-headed carrots,
but they're just not edible.
I think you see, stop.
Bring them in.
I reckon that carrot you could put on, trade me and make some money.
I knew you would.
I'll eat it.
Bring it in.
Okay, I'll bring one in next time.
And you'll hate it.
And I'll love it.
I'll go, yummy, yummy, yummy, organic vegetables.
Oh, you're dry reaching.
Get your Clint McGreg and Dan Fax.
All right, give us call.
0800 at the edge.
let's settle this.
Do you make your bed in the morning?
It's Clint McGinn dance.
Let's settle this right now.
I liked your pause for effect.
Thank you so much.
It was definitely planned.
Yeah, do you make your bed in the morning as an adult?
As kids, we were kind of always forced to do it.
It was something that you were told that you had to do
to be a successful young person in life.
But who actually is doing it as an adult in their real life?
Dan, going over to you quickly.
Don't do it.
And I...
Nobody got taff a day.
That's what I'm going to say.
I definitely can't at 4.30 in the morning when my wife's still in the bed,
but in the weekends we'll make it together.
And she'll always have it made when I get home.
And it says that a survey said that the people that do make their bed
tend to be more confident, sociable and adventurous.
I must say on the days that I do make my bed,
and I'm having one of those days of like I am the greatest person
living on planet earth and I'll like make my bed and I'll have, you know what I mean?
You started the day.
We're ticking something off.
I must say that making the bed does.
make me feel superior to everybody else.
All right.
What else can I do?
Yeah, I am unstoppable.
Those things where they say you do one thing
that tick off the list in the morning.
Yeah.
What a load of crap.
Completing the task of making your bed
first thing in the morning builds quiet self-trust
and gives your brain an early sense of accomplishment.
Oh, do something else.
All right, we want your instant votes.
Oh, 800 the edge.
Also just text us if you're listening about it and you go,
yes, I do, no, I don't.
Make the beard.
What are you doing?
I want to hear from people that have got all those pillows.
like those like 17 different display pillows
that you take on and off your bed every day
just to display for you
because no one else is going into your room, are they?
We've only got 10.
10?
Double digits of throw pillows.
And so do you...
So we have the pillow that we sleep on,
then we have the pillows that match the duvet,
then we have our tri-pillows,
and then we have Euro pillows,
and then we have two decorative ones
that go in front of the other eight.
Yeah.
Okay.
I feel like I can't tell my kids
to make their beds if I don't,
so I have to like, oh, be the...
Example.
example. Daniel, do you make your bed, yes or no?
Morning team. Yes, I do, and so do all three kids.
Running a tight ship there, Daniel.
Now, how many display pillows are you rocking?
Oh, we've just got the, like, we've just got the Euro pillows,
the one we sleep on, and then the other, you know, that matches the duvet.
Yeah, okay.
So, no, like, still too many.
I know your kids quite advanced? Are they in, like,
teams or, you know, like the special
class for, like, a year or two
ahead of their actual year?
They actually are, the twins especially 11.
And yes, remember, they're going to the tournament
next week, that you guys have the names on the back?
That's right.
And are they so they're 11, but probably
have a reading age of 13?
Yeah, they're pretty, the maths, they're top of their class.
But do you think that's because they make their beard?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Did they study?
Thank you, Danny.
I'm going to Jay now.
Jay, do you make your beard?
I make my bed every day when I can
But I also leave earlier than my wife
Yeah, that's tough
Yeah
Now interestingly, Jay, you say
When you can, on the days where you can't
Do you feel less successful?
I make my side of the bed
I love that she's like trying to get cozy
And it's like tucking in sheets
But yeah, it's nice though
It makes it easy for her
It starts my day off really well
Yeah
Okay
That's good
And then beer, do you make your bed?
I do
Because I have like cats
So sometimes they sleep on my bed
No no no
That's the best excuse
Yeah
Best excuse for not making a bed
As if there's a cat sleeping on it
It's a sin to move that
Well it's very interesting
Because everybody here
Literally 100% of the people
On the text machine
You overachieving people
Yeah but are we shocked
That our listeners are the best
No one's admitted
That they don't make their bed in the morning
Which shocks me
Because they're all 6am like starters
They're hitting the gym
Like let their shit together man
Good on you
If you are like Dan, you don't make your beard, studies suggest that you may be more sarcastic,
yes, moody, or curious.
Oh, God, that's me.
Oh, that is true.
You prescribed me.
In Scandal coming up, is it a tour?
Is it a new song?
A reunion?
Find out what the spy skills have announced after teasing us yesterday,
and what did Jennifer Lawrence upload for a very first Instagram reel?
Clint McGahn's scandal.
Jennifer Lawrence has finally joined social media after years of saying that she had a private account to troll people.
She now has a public account.
actually see her. This is her first reel.
So, yeah, I'm giving it a shot. And
if anyone says
anything negative, I will quit
immediately. No, no questions
asked. We'll see you later then.
She's the first. She's hearing about the internet.
Yeah, yeah. She's been very cautious
of everybody, but obviously trolling. I love her.
And the Spice Girls have announced they are releasing an album
of all their singles in one place.
Plus some unreleased and unheard of songs before from the Vault out 6th of November.
And is that the vinyl and CD versions as well?
Yeah.
How cool.
Now, I think it's really cool, but people were thinking that it was going to be a tour and reunion,
so they're disappointed with CDs.
But I didn't really expect them to be doing that.
Just hits in Auckland.
The edge.
Clint Meg and Dan.
Posh is never agreeing.
No, no way.
She's the one that always holds back.
Yeah, I don't think so.
But I think the album will be great
I'm really, really genuinely excited
as a, I guess it doesn't matter,
boys love them too, but as a mother of girls,
to have like a CD of the best singles
to play to my daughter.
They had some absolute howlers as well, didn't they?
Yeah, they did. Oh, howler, isn't that a bad thing?
If you have a howler of a game,
you had a terrible game.
Oh, I've always seen it as a positive thing.
It's just me, me though, Clint,
I see something as a positive.
Clint McGinn, Dan.
The Edge Breakfast.
The Edge.
We move on, just so no one else makes a mistake.
Dan's been making for about
37 years.
Having a howler of a game or
producing a howler of a song
which Dan thought was a positive thing
means playing terribly or making
a series of massive embarrassing
mistakes. Yeah, I just want to apologise to
the Spice Girls because I said before that they've had some
howler hits. And I thought it was a positive thing.
Yeah, yeah. And that's on intentions
and actions. You know what? I'm just a positive
guy and everything's positive to me.
It's flat idol.
Which is not true, considering about to
gone to Flat Idol and Dan has, they're having some howlers.
It's been very vocal.
Well, to be fair, I think they've all given it a bash.
Some of them have had a better bash than others.
I've been really impressed by somehow every day so far.
The four songs have been made differently.
We've had parodies.
We've had AI.
We've had fully written from the beginning.
And we've also had a garage band.
So why have flats gone out of their way to create original songs?
They are trying to win six tickets to RMV, accommodation and a VIP Vintage Club upgrade.
If you've missed the songs,
feels like they keep getting better and better, and we keep being like,
that's the winner.
Yeah.
And then we're like, the next day, now that's the winner.
Yeah.
Let's go through quickly the four songs we've had this week,
and then we're going to have our final finalist just after 8.30 this morning.
This was White Palace.
Four-year-dezy we've earned our stripes.
Four-day bend is questionable nights.
Great song, but probably a heavy use of AI.
Yes, yeah.
Unless we can get one of the flatmates on and they can sing and you realize that to a vocal.
The thing is we didn't say you couldn't use AI.
Exactly.
So they've done it.
They've done a good job.
No AI.
And I would say this is a howler.
Correct yes of the term.
Hey, they gave it a good bash.
They also did an Olly Part and cover when they sort of mush them all together.
And I think extra points for not using AI.
I feel like, you know, they did it.
They did it well.
Then there was the flat matter musicians or studying music.
What are we going to do?
Same old streets, same old boss, same old bloody you.
So what's left?
What is when there's nothing else to do?
Yeah, a lot of people are getting high-five vibes.
It's so impressive that they did this whole thing by themselves.
Every instrument you hear, that's them.
It's incredible.
And then the Chazettes, we were like, good luck following that.
They did.
Absolutely did.
You went in the tickets and also get a recording contract.
Like, great voice there.
It had a rap break.
down as well. Yeah, the thing I liked about that is the lyric was great T, A.K.E. Us to R&V.
Brilliant. The vocal was very, very well done. Production was great too.
Yeah, so I don't know what the last, what's the last flight called? I hit it before, Clint.
It is the chateau. The chateau. I don't know. It's shaking in their boots. And I feel
that we actually have come to an end of other ways you could make a song. So I think there's
going to have to be a repeat of it that's a parody or a garage band or an AI thing.
Yeah. Well, the final song,
We get debut just after 830.
That's when voting opens,
and it'll run through to Monday 7am.
And then whoever gets the most votes is going to R&V
for the final dance at Yoha Hika State and Gisbon for free.
Yeah, if you had a favourite, please vote because it's not up to us.
We have no say.
No, we don't get it.
So you have to vote.
Yesterday we did our Overtinkers podcast.
If you haven't listened to it,
it's where we get to do a bit more loosey-goosey,
and we all got very honest with ourselves.
Yeah, we decided to rate ourselves out of 10.
Have a thing about what you would rate the three of us out of 10
and see how close you are to what we gave ourselves.
Can I be clear, though, for looks, eh?
It's looks. It's looks. And if you get it wrong, you die.
So you've got to be honest.
Yeah, there are a lot of stakes.
Yeah.
It's next on the edge.
Listen live weekdays from Sex on Rover and Catch Up wherever.
This is Clint Meg and Dan.
The Edge.
This is the Overthinkers podcast.
Got more, Clint McG and Dan after the show.
We do another podcast where we overthink a bunch of things.
Up by about roughly 11 a.m.
Yeah, it is usually.
Yeah.
Brady puts it up and he's really quick at that.
Now, we're asking you to rate us out of 10.
Yeah.
Which isn't something everyone does.
But we came up with a hypothetical game that if 100 people ranked us out of 10 and we got that average.
For looks.
For looks.
Don't take it, just take personality, everything out of it, just looks.
What do we think that number would be?
And if we're outside of the margin of error of 0.5, you die.
Yeah, either side, 0.5.
And so we had to be as honest as possible where we thought we'd hold.
hopefully survive.
So maybe you text through Dow, initially, what your thoughts would be.
Out of 10, Meg, Clint and myself.
Yeah, we've had one text so far.
I think we're trying to get them on in the background.
Okay.
That piss me off.
So we all wrote our number down on a post-it note, and then we gave it to Meg, and she read them out.
Clint has rated himself that he thinks he would pass away if he didn't get within 0.5 either side, 7.9.
So it's an 8.
He's an 8.4.
I can go anywhere from 7.4.
8.4.
Yeah.
Can I have mine back?
No.
Okay, I put my number as 5.7.
You're higher than that.
You'd be dead.
No, wait.
You're so dear.
You're way higher than that.
I reckon face alone, you're higher than Clint.
Dan has put himself as a 7.
So anywhere between a 7.5 and a 6.5.
That's pouting.
What do you think?
So, so far, some of the texts that have come in to see if we would.
be alive or dead. We've got Ritchie.
Richie, do you have votes for us?
I have votes for you, yes.
Yeah, go on.
Dan?
10.
10. Are you dead then according to Ritchie, but that's nice?
Don't lie, Richie.
Don't try to. We all know I'm not a 10.
Well, maybe in Richie's eyes.
You're a 10 in my eyes, mate.
You're a 10 in my eyes.
That's lovely, Richie.
That's lovely.
Okay.
Okay, well, it isn't because if we go to the other votes,
Dan has gotten a 5, a 6.5, a 6 and a 7.
So you'd be dead, Dad.
Sorry, but I'm polarising.
I'm polarising.
I'm in a quiet taste.
Okay, I have gotten a 5, a 6, a 7.5, a 7 and a 9.
Oh, I don't know if the average would I be alive?
The 5 brings me down.
Okay, get your rankings in, and then we'll go and add them up,
divide them by how many people texted and we'll work out if we're dead or alive.
To be fair, David's gave me a 9 and Clint of 5.
I think he's got them mixed around.
I think you're blind, David.
Screw you, David.
Put me at a seven as well, Jesus.
And also, maybe you can text through and say,
I would give myself a what?
It's interesting trying to rank yourself
as to how you think people see you.
And then you send a photo of yourself
and we'll judge you.
See how that feels, eh?
Yeah, we'll go and Meg will do like a search on Facebook
first and last name.
We'll bring up the purple.
Lisa say she's a nine. I doubt that, Lisa.
Hey.
Your favorite radio show?
In podcast form
Edge Breakfast
Clint Meg and Dan
Jeez
You guys have absolutely
stirred up a bit of a hornet's nest
here in studio
Yeah
I'm sick of this
We're gonna find out
Who lives and who dies
One day
Can I just say
One day I want to walk into a room
And go
I'm the hottest one here
It's never happened
I'll organise it for your birthday
I'll get a room
It could be tomorrow
It could be the next day
But it won't be today
No
We have asked you to rate us
Out of 10
The game is
that you have to give yourself a number
that you think would be within the margin of error of 0.5
of what people think about you.
Yeah, and it's 100 strangers that are raiding you on your looks.
We ask you to rate us on our looks.
I worry that some of you are trying to be too nice to us.
Don't be nice.
I should have said you will die if you don't get the average too.
Maybe that would change the amounts.
I will say, Andrew, the guy that raided me a three.
I'd like to see a photo you, you oil painting.
Okay, that's all I'll say.
Okay, so Meg, we'll go to the calls,
but in the background, we have collated all of the numbers,
divided them by the amount of people have texted,
so we do have the listener average of Meg, Dan and myself.
Okay, here we go.
So Jess, first off, what are you rating?
Dan.
Dan's a seven on video, but a nine in person.
So you're just saying, I'm ugly.
At least you see me in real life.
That's better.
That's way better.
That's way better.
Okay.
No, absolutely not ugly.
Clint?
Eight to nine.
Meg.
Thanks, Jess.
Eight to nine.
Oh, so you'd say I'm a solid nine in real life.
Absolutely.
Solid none.
That's a head.
I've never had that before.
Good on, you can live, Jess.
Jacob?
Yo!
Yo, Jacob.
All right, let's start off.
Dan.
I was Dan.
I'm sorry.
I went sick.
Oh, I'd like to see a photo.
You, Jacob.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I bet you're not great.
I either, mate.
All right.
Meg.
I went seven.
Clint.
Out of the Clint, I went nine.
Right.
Oh, well, darned Glenn.
All right.
Do we, should I go to the results and find out who's dead or not?
Put a star next to Jacob's name.
Oh, because.
No, I put a cross a down.
Okay, I've just received a four.
So, like, it's really a mixed bag.
Yeah, but Christine's giving you a 9.2.
I know, but...
Yeah, but let's not go to her because she gave me...
Oh, no, she gave me 7.
She gave a 7.2.
Would we like to know where we set with the average?
Okay, so you've got to be within 0.5.
of the answers we gave ourselves. Again, Meg, what did you give yourself?
A 5.7.
Okay, I gave myself a 7.9 and Dan gave himself a 7.
Okay, let's find out who's alive and who's dead.
Dan, your average is 6.3, you're dead.
Yeah, well, you're all ugly.
No more talking from you, you're dead.
Sick of all those ugly dead.
Kick a fellow, I get away.
Keep shooting him in the foot.
Zane.
That's okay.
Okay. Meg, I voted myself of 5.7.
I got an average of 7.4. I am dead.
You deserve it.
Clint, voted himself as 7.9.
Got an average of 7.4, survives.
You know what? Here's the thing that piss me off.
I'm still the ugliest on the show, aren't I?
And he's still the hottest.
And he lives.
Actually and dead.
Sometimes when someone's actually ugly.
Maybe just give them a little bit of a higher score just so they feel better about themselves.
Wait, what was Dan's average?
His average is a 6.3.
Oh, it's lower than you thought.
Yeah.
So it was mine.
People have gone, no, you're not that hot, Dan.
So Meggs was the only one that was hotter than she thought.
And they still died.
It somehow survives.
Anyway, let's move on.
Steve's rated Mega 4.
Yeah, thanks, Steve.
All right, let's joke.
I think it's your personality.
Easy.
He even texts and he goes, no, it's definitely her looks.
One letter, 10 categories, and just 30 seconds.
Let's play.
Easy money.
Bang on 7 o'clock Friday.
We got ourselves a first-time caller as well.

No, she didn't.
She came to win a thousand bucks.

Vietnam, Vanuatu, Venezuela is what we had done.
The car brand was Volvo or Volkswagen.
And I love how you said vegetables.
Vegetables. Vegetables.
Vegetables.
We have a bloody good Friday and enjoy the weekend, Haley.
Thanks for playing and thanks for calling.
Don't be a stranger.
Thank you.
I love you, Hayley.
From the Hawks Bay, thanks, mate.
Back again at 8 o'clock if you think you can get the job done.
And if you haven't heard the whole show from 6 to 10 every single day,
you don't know what you're missing.
Yep.
And even though we shouldn't because it teaches you bad habits,
producer Brady has got all the highlights and things that you probably shouldn't have missed for your next.
The omnibus we call it
This is the Clint Meg and Dan catch up
Want to hear the guys off air in him
Little Looser
Listen and watch their Overtinkers podcast
Now producer Brady is doing you a solid
If you've missed parts of the show this week
You're oh no
What am we undo
I don't know if it teaches you good or bad habits
Because he's just going to like spoon feed you
All the best bits now
Oh but it's a delicious spoon full in it
Are you nervous Meg?
Yeah always
I would be
I'm just the way of life Clint
It is always never really
because we hear it at the same time you hear her.
Yeah, she's like an impala in the African desert.
Yeah, she's just like looking around.
Is that a lion?
That looks like a lion.
Giday, it's Brady, and welcome back to another producer's diary.
Klim was away at the start of the week this week.
And if you didn't know where he was, I've made this for you.
In Hawaii, Aulani Disney Resort and Spa?
I don't know if I told you, Dan, but I was in Hawaii.
Aulani Resort, beautiful spot.
Dan is going to catch me up on all the things that I missed while I was away in Hawaii.
And I'm back from a...
pretty quick trip to Hawaii.
I've been away a few days because I was in...
Don't mention it.
He was in Hawaii. That's all we need to know.
And if you do go there, Awalani Resort.
No, no, no, no, no.
Yeah, bro, get that bag.
And Dan woke up on the wrong side of the bed on Monday.
Ketinka, morning.
Get on with it.
Thank you, Kettinga.
He's been in a mood or morning.
Yeah, sorry, I have.
And I couldn't forget your weekly dose of Clint, Meg and Dan out of context.
I'm usually waiting for an only woman to finish so I can get on.
Yeah, we'll finish on GC.
My wife's had my pubs in her mouth.
Okay, we're finishing on a tart.
F. F. F.
And now it's time for the easy money blunder of the week.
Easy money.
The letter is F.
Ariana, give me some that you'd buy at a supermarket.
Fish fingers.
A country.
France.
A relative.
Father.
An occupation.
French dick maker.
A drink.
Just a...
Oh, damn it.
A drink.
Fizzy drink.
A musical instrument.
Finger puppet.
Something hot.
The's not music.
The fingers.
I can't say the same thing.
Honestly, stop.
Time.
Still only one winner for Fibu.
Lucy from the Night Show came in on Tuesday
to fill in for Scandal for Meg while she was away,
and it didn't take long for a bit of ageism to start creeping in.
I'm frothin for the In Between his movie.
It must be all in their 40s now, the actors.
Season 1, premiered in 2008.
Tell would you have been loose?
I do like two.
Baby, not in New Year.
God, Clinton had already had his 30th.
That's best off.
He's lying, looking.
Dan managed to get an unexpected confidence boost after a phoner about what was the worst thing that you've had in your mouth.
I had an espresso machine.
One day, you know, you pop the top open and put the pod in.
I'm going to say like a three-inch cockroach crawled out.
Three-inch?
It was massive.
It was one of the big mama ones.
Do you that, Dan?
Three-inch is massive.
That's very, very big.
Happy for you, mate.
Purchasing a house with your mate has become increasingly more popular,
but Meg isn't keen on becoming Dan's new bunk buddy.
So I've got a few friends, and they were best mates.
They bought a house together, like filled it with flatmates.
To get even more out of the rooms, they stayed on bunk beds in one room and then rented out of the others.
Oh my gosh, I don't know about the bunk bed.
There you go of megan.
Oh, no, you're a bedwether.
I know.
Trickle down.
and I'm not getting a mattress protector.
And that wraps it up for producers' diary this week.
Have a good weekend, you bloody legends, and up the waz.
Thank you, producer Brady, up the waz.
They're going to be taking on the dolphins tomorrow night.
Six o'clock kickoff.
And speaking of the waz, we're talking about them next.
And I believe that I am New Zealand's biggest waz jinks.
And I need to find other jinks.
Yeah.
Clickming and Dan.
Edge breakfast.
And the warriors taken on the dolphins in the first round of the N.
We have never won, although we have gone to the grand final, the big show twice.
So we are compiling our team of New Zealand Warriors.
Clint Megan Dan's New Zealand Warriors.
We want as many unlucky people, people that think there are jinks just specifically for the Warriors,
or people that are just unlucky in life, to be as far away from the next few games as possible.
It's a bit of a specific person because you're worried for the Warriors.
You don't want to muck anything up.
and if you are a unlucky person, you're going to self-sacrifice.
Maybe you are a Warriors fan, but you every time you watch the game, they lose.
Or you're the partner of a die-hard fan, and every time you watch the game with them, they lose.
That's been Dan's story for the last couple of months.
Yeah, and I would say I'm a new fan, like I'm a new fan of the Warriors.
I've only just started properly watching them in the last couple of seasons.
And every time I watch a game, like specifically intently, like I sit down and watch or I go to a game, they lose.
So Dan was watching the game
Every time
Dan was watching the game last week
We won so you're like oh that's good
But Dan turned it off
When we were losing
And we came back in one by one point
Which you missed
So whenever my eyes
Like laid on a game
They start playing badly
So this weekend
I'm gonna be as far away
From the game as possible
I'm not gonna watch it
Doesn't even want you to talk about the waz
He said full caps
Dan stop even talking about it
Nathan if I can't even talk about it
They're gonna lose anyway
Warriors fans are very superstitious because of the fact that we've never done it.
We'll be pleased to know Nathan this weekend.
I'm going to be as far away from anything to do with the Warriors.
I'm not even going to wear the merch.
Good.
I'm not going to watch the game.
I'm not even going to watch updates.
Thank you.
I'm sacrificing this.
And I'm hoping that other people are willing to do the same if there are jinx.
And I mean, that's great for this round.
But we've talked about getting a bunker and putting all the jinxes in it
when we have an elimination game, which could be next week if we lose.
How's that going, Clint?
Are you organising that in the background?
Producer Carl's doing a lot of the heavy lifting on that one
because I'm going to be at the game.
I'm not going to be at the bunker.
So you're not going to come.
You're not going to come and be the bunker with Dad.
No, I'm not missing the Warriors run to the grand final.
There's a couple of other people that have said they or their friends are jinxes.
So we're working behind the scenes, as we say, to come up with,
maybe it's not going to be this weekend.
In the next few games, we organise a bunker.
Yeah, it's underground.
We all go in there.
We have a fun night, but there's just no Warriors there.
And Warriors fans will thank you for your service.
So if you are a fan of the Warriors, but you're a jinx, get in touch with us.
We're organising this behind the scenes.
It's going to be a fun night for everybody.
The Warriors as well, the last seven times, this is crazy.
The last seven times we've played the Dolphins, we've either won or lost by within four points.
The game has been that tight every single time.
So, yeah, we need you to be as far away from...
any broadcast Dan of the Warriors tomorrow night as possible.
This is going to be a test as well
because this is the first time I've properly not watched a game.
Great.
Okay, good, thank you.
So if we win, it's 100% on the JN.
If you want to be on the team, Dan's even talking about getting shirts made and everything.
You want to be on our New Zealand Warriors team?
You're worried you're a Jinks 3343.
Let us know.
And we'll get you as far away from the Warriors games as possible.
Antarctica, the boss wasn't really keen.
Yeah, we did pitch that and then we pitched London too far as well.
Get your Clint Meg and Dan Fax.
The Edge.
We started doing this before we realized that venting actually isn't good for you.
Yeah, I actually looked up to the studies just so we could have something to say this is why.
Like validation and what we were doing.
It does say venting does not reduce anger or stress.
Such a Billy D-Games moment.
And a major analysis of 154 studies involving tens of thousands.
of participants found no evidence that letting out anger makes you feel any better.
I do like a vent though.
Yeah.
But you're right, maybe I don't feel better after it long term.
But it does increase arousal, if that's something you're interested in.
It triggers rumination, which means like you're ruminating.
You keep going round and round on those thoughts.
All right, well, just on a Friday, very quickly, before we get into the weekend, we do things we hate.
And this was actually inspired by something I randomly decided to do.
You said, and my wife goes, what are you doing?
when I decided to FaceTime a friend without warning.
I just was like, I want to chat to him, but I want to see him while I chat to him.
So I phacined him while I'm making it in my wife, goes, what are you doing?
What are you doing?
And I was like, I'm just calling a mate.
She's like, you're FaceTiming.
I was like, I know.
Did they answer?
No.
Yeah, exactly.
I would never answer an uncalled for FaceTime.
I assume every time it's a butt dial.
I would always text free for a quick FaceTime.
First.
Yeah, yeah, that deserves a text, I reckon.
And if that's happening, I'm going, then that person's,
showing me they're engaged.
The only time I get a FaceTime unexpectedly, I'm like, oh, somebody's got to ring on their finger,
they want to show off.
Yeah.
The thing that I want to call out and the thing that I hate happened to me this week, and this is getting this off my chest,
I got a, can we circle back email, just circling back on this from somebody.
Which, and the email was an invitation to something, which I ignored.
Yeah.
They wanted me to come to something.
I just didn't reply to it.
And then they go, just circling back on this.
Can we expect you to be here?
No.
So do you think that in no reply means a no?
I think so.
Or RSVP, no reply means no.
If it's a 21st or a wedding or something, I think you need to reply.
But if it's just a thing out of the blue to a like something that you don't know the person, I don't reply to you know.
Sorry, my mum and I have argued about this for years because I see an RSVP as, let me know if you're coming.
So if I haven't, then I'm not.
Whereas my mum looks at RSVP as in you need.
Let me know if you're coming or not coming.
Yeah.
Because I thought it's like a yes I am.
And if I don't respond, then I'm.
not RSVPing to the event.
So if I invite you to coming over to my house
for some hors d'oeuvres and a lovely evening
and I just don't receive a text back from you,
I just assume you're not coming.
No, no, but some people aren't like that.
Some people go, oh, that sounds good and they will show up.
Because they, you know, when not replying,
people will be like, yeah, you invited me, so I'm here.
I think an RSVP is a list of people who are coming.
No.
The RSVPing, they are coming.
No, the RSVPing, yes or no.
It means, like, what does RSPP stand for?
Mark's text in saying venting
I hate the wooden spoon cutler
you get at takeaway places
and let's not forget the stupid paper straws
I'm with you with the paper straws Mark
Let's kill a few fish
Just to get the plastic straws back
Circling back
Sorry down no you hate that
RSVP means please respond
It means please respond
In the French phrase
Respondévese
So that means please respond
Not please respond
Yes
Ah it's not a list of yes
Yes.
And was that French
grammatically correct?
I responde
Ville is the voblee?
Bang on.
I hate people that say French wrong.
Just circling back to that.
Sarah's taken a quick text saying
Low-rise jeans coming back.
Not for me.
I don't mind them.
I've noticed as well the G-bang
are popping up the top of the pants
on a girl's coming back in.
I've seen at least to a three
out in public.
Very much.
The whale tail.
Like a crop top
And then the low-rise gene
And then a whale-tail G-banger
Yeah
Not for me
Interesting
Producer Carl got the email
I'm not sure if anyone else has
But it was a bit of a warning
Saying that
There is a certain act
That is very close to selling out
Before they perform in New Zealand on Sunday
And so maybe people need to know about this
Because I don't want you missing out
Surprising that they've nearly sold out
Oh don't do that
I'm going on Sunday
I reckon they're just saying that to sell more tickets
It's
That Meg's you're coming to.
Better get in Quick, Meg, they're almost sold out.
Who is it? Find out next.
Take the edge of your name with Clint Meg and Dan.
What does close to selling out mean?
Because I think it means exactly what it says, that it's close to selling out.
Dan thinks it's the opposite.
Well, it depends, say, for instance, if Taylor Swift came to New Zealand and she said she's close to selling out,
I'd probably believe it.
Right.
But when MKTO says,
says it.
Oh.
Go something with your life.
I go.
I've had tickets for how long now, Meg?
Months.
The moment they went on sale
and bought tickets.
No, you know what?
He was worried because he was worried
they were going to sell out.
I was at the five gig,
and while I was at the gig
with all the other millennials,
I turned to my wife and I said,
let's buy MKTO tickets right now.
We can't even remember the name.
We bought them while at a five concert,
which is super millennial of us.
But I can't believe they're not playing
at Spark Arena
but they're playing at the studio
which doesn't hold as many
I will say
look MKTO they have a couple
of bangers don't they
in fact I think
No they have four
Four
They have God only knows
Literally never heard this song in my life
Bad girls
American Dream which is their best
The same's on a song
That we used to know
Because Jack left a guy
Great song
What's the other one
Classic
I'd say three
That fourth one's a stretch
How much is a ticket?
from memory about 80, 90 bucks, I think.
Now where would you place those three hits?
You'd open with one of them,
then you'd put another one mid-show and then close on something else.
So what are they doing in the middle of that?
That's my question.
So Dan thinks it's one of those ones where they haven't moved enough tickets.
So they're saying, quick, it's close to selling out.
So we all frantically go and buy them when in actual fact there's a lot left over.
And no shade to MKTO, because they have had three hits.
But I'd be very surprised if the concert
is, quote, close to selling out.
Oh, Meg, the annoying thing is it's a Sunday.
So we're going to be a little bit dusty on a Monday, but it's worth it, I think.
When this song comes on.
It's going to be insane.
I'm going to be third wheeling, though, with you and your wife.
That's, that's, them saying they're close to selling out is like me saying I'm close to being a detective because I watch some crime docos.
That's, you know, like, it's just.
You're just, embellishing the truth a little.
Somebody says they should be doing a free concert at Britain,
more likely.
Oh, that did sound out.
That's free.
Someone else's a text.
Yeah, I'm close to getting married.
I signed up for Tinder last week.
Yes, that's good.
Now let's catch it on.
Let's catch it on.
You can take more texts if you are.
I reckon, oh, 800 the edge.
What are you close to doing?
Inverted commas.
That's so mean.
I hope MKATI aren't listening to this.
Guys, we love you.
So much.
Someone said they're close to being a lawyer
because they're thinking about studying law.
You have to pass the bar first.
Thanks, it takes quite a few years, I imagine.
All right, we'll do Dan's fun little game.
What are you close to doing?
The day is almost upon a Sunday night, MKTO.
Come to the shores of New Zealand.
I've had my tickets along with many other millennials for a while
and got an email saying it's close to selling out,
which Dan thinks means it is not close at all to selling out
and they're desperate to move the final tickets before they cancel the show.
And I don't want to be the good.
guy that's punching down to MKTO because I think
they're a successful band. They've got three big
hits. But I'm just saying,
is that enough to be saying we've nearly sold out?
I don't know. Seventy-three bucks
a ticket cheaper than I thought, Meg, and 175
if you want a meeting greet.
Bargain. So what have you nearly done?
What have you...
Yeah, got quite a few texts coming in, Dan. Do you want to go through
some of those before I head to the phones?
Someone said, I'm close to being
a millionaire because I've just put a lot of ticket.
See, brilliant. This is what we want.
All right, that's got a map.
Matt.
What are you close to doing, Matt?
I'm close to opening for Fisher because I'm a DJ and a Bacagal.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Oh, what's your DJ name?
Haven't said that, though.
I did your gig, small town, big gig, and I opened for Peeking Duck.
Oh, I don't remember you, Matt.
I reckon you're one step away from being open.
Yeah.
How often do you tell people that when they go, oh, do you DJ, anything big?
You go, yeah, I open for Peaking Duck once.
Yeah, I don't say the location, though.
Yeah, fair enough.
Thanks, Maddie.
Adams just text through saying I've got a receptionist job,
so I'm close to being the CEO.
That's what we want.
Nice, one step away.
Nice.
We want to hear.
Richie, what are you close to doing?
I am six minutes away from finishing work.
Yeah?
Yeah.
So you're close to...
Big shout out to DJ Matt Murray, though.
Limpicago.
Oh, you know, DJ.
Matt Murray.
I might do.
Well, this isn't the phoneer.
Do you know Matt Murray?
Well, Matt's doing really well.
Matt is getting closer and closer to be in the opening person for Fisher.
Yeah.
Someone said I'm close to being pregnant because I just had sex.
Thanks for that one.
Thanks, Sarah.
Now everybody knows.
I'm close to being a race car driver because I'm in the fast lane on the motorway.
Declan, you're one step away from Formula One.
And this one's really big.
I'm standing next to a diesel pump this morning, so I'm close to being a truck.
No, you guys are mean.
I'll get the final laugh when you see my Insta stories.
Sing it along.
I still might be there.
I still might be planned.
Hey, if it's cost to selling up.
You're going to get a quick meet.
Buy tickets now.
Hurry up.
$1,000 on the line with easy money.
If you think you get the job done,
the letter is K for 1K,000 bucks going into a bank account for the weekend.
If you can get the job done.
What do we get?
Seven or eight?
We got up to number nine with two skips.
Yeah, that's right.
At seven o'clock.
So need a little bit of a better showing than that.
Just call 0-800 the edge, and you're close to winning a thousand bucks.
True.
We'll do it in 90 seconds.
Money.
$1,000 on the line.
Let's play.
Easy money.
Here we go.
A thousand bucks.
Could be going to a first-time caller this morning.
First-time caller.
I just came to say hello.
Love our cash gets you out of the woodwork.
I could be wrong, but I think this is our second first-time caller from Hawks Bay today.
What's going on in Hawks Bay?
Yeah.
What's exciting?
Yeah, how you going?
Hi.
Johan's a cool name, mate.
Sounds like a cool dude.
Is the edge just being turned on or something in the Hawks Bay?
What's going on?
Yeah, it's got to be the one to listen to, that's for sure.
Oh, thanks, mate.
Oh, thanks, Your Hon, your letter this morning is Kay.
You're ready to play?
Awesome, yeah, let it wrap.
Okay, you can pass.
If we've got time, we'll come back.
You just can't give us the same answer twice.
Here we go, thousand bucks.
Good luck, Johan.
Cheers.
Give me a name.
Kevin.
An animal.
Kangaroo.
A body part.
Knee.
Something in the house.
Kettle.
A food brand.
A TV show
A four-letter word
Something you wear
A female singer
Carly Clarkson
Time
Got to 10
Got the final
Question 10
A couple of passes in the mix though
That was a good effort
It was a good effort
I think it sounds like you were distracted as well
There was their kids in the background
Are you trying to pair and answer questions
Yeah, it's got a little one
multitasking
You did very well for having a little one in the background
Thank you for playing Johan.
Yeah, a couple of skips.
Food brand, Kellogg's craft.
KFC, if you're playing at home.
I thought KFC, what is it?
A TV show, keep it up, the Kardashians.
Kath and Kim, my favourite of all time.
When you start thinking about when you've been on a gravy tray,
you've been getting something for free for so, so long,
and it's like something you'd usually have to pay for.
That's been me for the last six months when it comes to haircuts.
And it's finally ended, that gravy.
It's barely been for free.
We've had shout-outs up the wazoo for this.
Tommy Guns.
Not Tommy Gunn.
Tommy Guns.
We know about it.
Love them.
Not anymore, it seems.
Gravy Jones come to a stop.
To-Too-Too!
Listen to your favourite breakfast show, whenever you like.
Clint Meggin' Dan.
The Edge.
All the Bay City.
Now, I never asked for this, but for the last...
Maybe it's been over six months.
Maybe it's been nearly a year.
I've been getting free haircuts.
It feels like it's been forever.
Dan, can I say that as your friend?
And you know what?
What a joy it is, because fair haircuts are expensive.
I didn't realize this because I've been getting free for so long.
I'm out of touch.
But the other day I went into the place where I get my free haircut and I waltz.
Why do you get them for free?
Does your mum know the owner or something?
I think because...
Because why?
Well, I don't want to say.
You've told us, but I forgot.
I forgot.
So why would you, out of anybody else, get a free haircut?
Celebrity, isn't it?
Oh, that's right.
Yeah.
And...
Well, that's all.
I'm sorry I made you remind people.
Well, I wouldn't say I am.
Oh really? You just did.
They listen.
Anyway. So I went in there one time and they were like, no charge.
Don't worry about it.
And I was like, no, I swear, honestly, I'm happy to pay.
Celebrity's money is not welcome here.
Yeah.
And I was like, no, I honestly want to pay.
And they were like, no, we won't take your money.
So fine.
And that was fine.
And then that happened every time I go back.
But then I think it was the next time she's like, just talk about us on here.
Yes.
That's right.
And I always do.
But I won't anymore because I went the other day.
I went the other day and it got to the point where now I go in there
and I almost expect to just waltz out
because I'm Dan from the radio.
And so I went in the other day and there was no one there that I recognised
because I love all the people there.
And went in there, they didn't know my name.
They didn't know my haircut.
So I sat down and was fine.
And then I got up and as I would usually do,
I just went, see you later and walked out.
Ooh.
Because it's got so comfortable that now it's free.
Ooh, I feel sick.
In which case, I got halfway down the morning.
before the lady from the reception area
came down and running after me
saying you haven't paid
and so I had to go back
and pay $65.
But do you know what's so gross?
Wait, wait, wait, what did he say?
What did you say?
Did you have to say, I normally I don't pay?
No, I did no, gone.
What did you do?
I just said that I'd forgotten.
Oh my God, silly me.
Jesus, what an idiot.
So why is it changed?
They've changed hands.
The owners have gone.
And now they probably did recognise you
and think that Dan Webby thinks
he doesn't have to pay for haircuts because he's a celebrity.
F-less celebrity thinks he can just come in here and get a free haircut.
I don't think they recognise me, to be honest.
So my gravy train has ended, but for such a long time,
I was going and getting free haircuts.
What a joy it was.
Oh, it is amazing to have a gravy train.
I don't think it needs to necessarily be free,
but you could have like a mate that works somewhere
and they give you their stuff just kind of like 60% off.
And when a gravy train is over, because you're right,
you come to expect it over time,
it's devastating.
Maybe you just work next to a cafe
and that cafe gives you cheap or free coffees
because your business is next to them.
And then you've moved.
And you're always sending clients
to their business and they appreciate it.
Yeah.
My best friend uses my Disney account.
So, I mean, luckily we'll stay best friends for life.
But I imagine, you know,
if I ever wanted to get back at her for something,
cut that off.
If you guys out of fallout,
I imagine every time you have an argument,
she's like, you're all right, Meg.
Yeah, you're right.
The only reason she stays friends with me is my Disney account.
Yeah.
Clint's got a gravy train with his Botox, hey?
They're just pumping that gravy into your forehead every month.
Delicious.
What is the gravy train that you're riding at the moment?
And maybe we also take calls from people that unfortunately their gravy train
has come to its final stop.
And you look back at those times and just reminisce at how incredible they were
and how long you rode it for.
You were sitting on that gravy train looking out the window and joy in life.
Someone said, Dan, 60 bucks for a hecker.
What are you part, poodle?
I know.
Dude's eargun is like 30 bucks, man.
They like shave your ears and stuff and do all that stuff, you know.
It was all the full hog.
Well, all right.
What was your gravy train that came to its final stop?
Oh, 800 the Edge or 3343 on text.
Oh, that's up.
Free City.
Is your gravy train over?
Or are you still riding it?
Getting something ridiculously cheap or free?
Yeah, look, it has become clear to us to be on the text machine.
A lot of people have been riding that gravy train.
They have indeed.
And those are the little fun parts of life, right?
I think.
Like this text then, my gravy chain has been going strong for 10 years.
My Papa paid for my family plan of Spotify and forgot that my sister and I joined what he initially paid for it.
He's been paying for 10 years.
Wow.
What about this?
Similar one with family.
My landlord was my uncle.
Rent hadn't changed in eight years.
Wow.
Then he came to us and said, I'm going to start charging market rent.
Christmas was awkward.
Oh, sat on.
What, that's a horrible thing to do.
Oh, come on.
There are some things in life.
If you're in a position that you have a house that your family members can live in,
surely you give them mates, right?
Yeah, exactly.
Well, I suppose for eight years he did.
Yeah, true.
Catherine, morning.
Morning.
So your hubby used to work for Fontera.
He did.
He worked with Fontera in Takenny, and they have a staff shop there.
So he would buy for 20 bucks as like a 25 centimetre slab of bree cheese,
like just the circle ones, but just imagine it like huge.
Damn.
Honestly, if I was getting free cheese, I'd be the size of a house.
So did you say how much?
Did I miss that?
It was, I think it was either $15 or $20.
Wow.
Oh, my God.
So he'd probably get one of those, like, I'd say 25 or maybe 30 centimeters.
Were you just constantly having like cheese and crackers?
Meg's gone.
I'm gone.
We'd often have just like bread with melted bread cheese on it for the listen time.
Is that what you do?
It's so good.
The gravy train's over.
You said he used to work.
Does not work here anymore?
Yeah, no, he works at Tartu now.
And they've got a staff shop, but obviously it's not like pre-chease or anything.
Yeah, but that's okay.
It was a good run while it lasted.
She's having cheese for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Just everything's cheese.
Good attitude, Catherine.
I love that, Catherine.
All right, what about you, Natalie?
What was the gravy train?
What's up, Nat?
Your gravy train's over.
It was good while you were on it.
What was it?
Yeah, I worked in an optometrist, and we got free glasses every year.
Oh, that's good.
I worked there for five years.
It was amazing.
And then I had to leave
and start a new job.
It was just time.
And now my prescription keeps changing
every six months
and I have to pay for glasses.
And prescription glasses are expensive as well.
So that was a really good gravy train.
Yeah, that's a good thing to know for people
that do work or need to work in it.
Should have worked at SpecSavis.
Do we go to Cal?
Because when he was 16, his gravy train ended,
or is he not?
Oh, there he is.
Okay.
Just go to Cow.
Morning, cow.
Morning team
So yeah
My gravy train
Ended when I was 16
Got my first job
And had to start paying rent
And contributing to the household
Oh one of those ones
Once you start earning your own money
Got to contribute
But at the moment
I've got two moochers
That are riding the gravy train
At the moment
How old?
A 10 year old
Oh yeah 10
Okay
They get a pass
That's what they call
Payback Cal
Are you gonna do the same thing
To your kids
After you went through it
Is it one of those things
Of like I had to do it
Or did it not teach you enough of a listening,
you'll continue to, you know, board them without pay?
Oh, no, 100%.
I've got a 19-year-old daughter who currently pays rent
and contributes towards her part of the household.
So these two little guys will do the same thing.
No.
Kids in the background going, what?
They've just found out.
They've got six more years on the gravy, Jane.
That's forever.
At least his text through saying that her hubby gives her facials every week.
That must be bloody good for your skin.
Who said that?
Someone on the text machine.
Gets facials every week.
Yeah.
I wish I could get a facial every week.
Honestly, whenever I get one, I'd come out feeling a million bucks.
Yeah.
Just honestly, the best feeling in the world, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah.
Are they qualified?
You'd hope so.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm paying good money for it.
Sometimes they can be expensive.
Yeah, mate.
I think the last time I got a facial was like 70 bucks.
Did you pay them or did they pay you?
I did my neck and chest as well.
School run.
I know it's hopefully going over the heads.
It's Breakfast, Clint McGintan.
It's Flats Idol.
Right.
Five Flats looking to win.
Six tickets to R&V accommodation and a VIP Vintage Club upgrade
with the original songs that they've written and created this week.
We've had such a caliber, a high caliber of songs coming through
and another one this morning.
Yeah.
Hopefully.
Yeah, true.
Natalia, morning.
You there, Natalia?
Sorry, good morning.
Hello.
She had us on mute.
There she is.
Hey, are you feeling confident after hearing the others?
Um, I would say definitely not.
The other groups have done such a good job.
Definitely not.
At least you're honest.
Yeah.
Hey, well, maybe we've saved the best to last.
You never know, Natalia.
That's what I thought we were doing.
I think if you were going to save the best for last,
I think you'd definitely pick the wrong song.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Now I'm excited to hear how bad it is.
I reckon this is a tactical play from her.
She's talking it down, so we're impressed when we hear the song.
Sympathy votes.
You know?
That's all right.
You'll take sympathy votes, weren't you?
Yeah, well, I think it's safe to say that even we won't be voting for us.
Oh, my.
How bad is it?
We won't be voting for us.
Okay, well, tell us about your vision.
What's the song about and, like, why did you do it?
Um, our song is basically just about.
us not being able to afford R&B,
but we really want to go to be our first time.
Oh, my God.
This is the Saturday.
Natalie.
Okay, well, let's hear it.
What's it called?
You've got to introduce that.
Okay.
This is The Chateau, and this is take us to R&B.
Okay.
Not holding out high hopes here.
Here we go.
Thanks, Natalia.
Final song and flat idol.
Good luck.
So that's not so good.
I haven't started singing.
We are we a Mary Lewis and Ratsy
We painted the Shato
We spent our family
When we hope you hope you're
And we hope your ears don't bleed
When we say
Take us to R&M
This show's so too busy
That's where we want to be
Please make our ticket free
We're oversold this
R&B son
The sync of you
Was gonna forfeit will
That doesn't count
No
No
What do you expect
To get to R&B
We need like 5 minutes
If you called us broke
Be correct
But no one can connect
Take us to R&B
Oh Jesus
What are they
My Tickening of a sudden
I can't
I have questions
Natalia
Did you on purpose not sing
at the same time?
No.
And be honest.
Did you record that on a toaster?
We just did the best with what we had.
We are definitely the furthest things from musicians.
And we didn't use any AI.
Yeah.
Although I think New Zealand might have wished you'd use the little.
No, I'm giving it a standing ovation, Natalia.
That sounded like it was way out of your comfort zone.
And you did it.
We've all been in the position where we've done something,
been like, okay, that's enough.
and then we hear the opposition, we go, oh my God, what am I doing?
Rochelle said, ha, ha, ha, they've got my vote.
Brilliant.
Well, yeah, the vote, who knows, Natali?
We don't know that it's not over until it's over.
And then Graham said, more life and a mortuary.
Right.
So it makes me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Voting and starting.
Well, let's recap all of them.
So if people have just tuned in, you don't know what to compare that to.
Sorry, said that was heartbreaking.
Should we recap that one?
Or should we consider that's already read.
That's recap.
Okay, good.
Recap the other four will open up the voting,
but who are you voting for if you have caught a few of them this week?
The other ones are really good, could I just say?
Even the shudest one compared to that one.
A sympathy vote is still a vote.
It's flat.
You have to decide who did it best and the winning flat.
The voting will be open through until Monday, 7am.
We'll announce the winner on Monday.
They'll get six tickets to R&V accommodation
and a VIP vintage club upgrade for their flat.
So the three of us don't have any say, do we?
No, we get no say what's.
wherever all we can do is play you.
The songs is a bit of a, I guess, a recap of all the ones that we have.
And you can text the word flat to 3343.
We'll send you the voting link.
And, you know, it is hard because sometimes it comes down to, like, maybe the most talented won't win.
Somebody might just have the underdogness.
They might just feel sorry for them.
They might have bigger families, bigger friends.
Yeah, a bit of following on Insta.
Yeah, yeah.
We'll see how it happens.
This was White Palace Monday.
He hits the deck
She's gone from the crew
John Summit, mate
She's coming for you
It's written very well
Yeah, yeah
Obviously bit of AI
The 212 flat
I don't think
All the time
But we will
I mean that
Hats off to them
They did well
Yep
And then we had flat notes
The
Ladd musicians
Yeah studying music
I will say about them
They should start
Like a kid's band
Like the Wiggles
Yeah
Because dad is
The boys are doing
All the musician
sorry, all the instruments, and then the girls doing the vocal.
Chazette's really set the high watermark for a lot of people used today.
Had a bit of a rap breakdown as well.
You can listen to all of these when you do vote, by the way.
And then we have the chateau that we just heard before.
Do we have a highlight of that, Clid?
Oh, I've got a clip.
How do they spell chateau?
Is it with the SH?
Let's see you.
Okay, so those are your five finalists.
All right, we have Zara Zara.
How do you feel about today's performance
and who do you think you're going to vote for overall?
If I'm being honest today's performance
just made me feel bad for this.
Yeah, it's...
I mean, and it was like that
they weren't obviously talent.
And she did say that.
They didn't have any musical talent.
Yeah.
It would have taken a lot to put that song together.
And then to listen to all the other ones and know your last.
It would have taken more to actually email it.
Yeah, true.
Sorry, I think.
All right.
Who gets your vote?
I think I'd vote for the Sports is it.
Yeah, pretty amazing with their...
What does it?
Take me.
To the edge came on.
What?
What?
Yeah, there's a few texts coming through for that one as well.
But it's not up to us, is it?
It's up to New Zealand.
Yeah, flat to 3343.
We'll send you the link.
Voting is open all weekends.
