This is a podcast from Rover.
Take the edge off your mornings with Clint Meg and Dan.
Good morning, it is.
One to six on your Tuesday, 6th of October, second week of school holidays.
Morning.
Good to hear, good to see you this morning.
Meg's already got off on a bad foot this morning because she came in and they're
in a little, in a stool to mirror.
It's disgusting.
It makes me so angry.
They took my couch out.
So we had a couch here as of yesterday that I could just sit on the couch after the
show's done.
We'd do our meetings.
Couch is gone.
She'd lay on there like we're painting you're like, well, nobody's torn me.
And then I walk in.
We drew one-time nude and the boss gets rid of it.
Sorry, if you could imagine this, it's 5 in the morning and you get up, you go to work,
you got into this job because you didn't have to worry about what you look like.
That's all changed because of bloody cameras and stuff now.
I walk in the first door to the studio and they've got a huge life-size mirror set-up.
So the first thing you see is yourself.
I don't mind.
Of course you didn't.
5 a.m.
Bad lighting as well.
It's so terrible lighting.
I've turned it around.
I'm not having it.
Jack, expect an email.
So you're not allowed to look at yourself,
but Clinton and I still have to.
No, no, it's too.
I'm turning it around.
No, he means I look at you.
Oh, that's...
I think you look quite lovely today.
You do.
You've done something different with your hair.
I know, it's very curly.
It's gorgeous.
It's just natural.
Oh, sorry.
Yeah, it's just natural.
I looked at myself in the room and I thought,
who the hell is that ugly prick?
And I realized it was me.
Yeah, so that's...
I've turned around for the both of us.
Clint, we can put it in your corner
if you like.
Although we don't want to have distracted a morning dad.
No, he'll just be looking at himself all day.
All right.
Hey, I'm your chance to win a trip to Sydney with Harry Stiles.
Meg will tell you how you can do that coming up at 6.30 this morning.
Also, your chance to get your hands on Olivia Dean tickets after 7.30.
And Jack Tame later in the show as well, New Zealand's favourite son.
He'll tell you who you need to vote for in the election that's coming up.
He makes the election, which I know can be boring for a lot of people and switch off.
He makes it quite interesting, doesn't he?
And I don't know who the hell I'm voting for this year.
I'll let you know what you should be doing there next.
The Edge.
The Edge is the home of Clint McGendown.
The Edge.
Time for a little coffee catch-up, see what's been going on in each other's lives.
I have one of those moments where somebody said to me, you can use that on your radio show.
Oh, it's normally not good.
It's normally a bit of a hit or mess.
I reckon one out of ten times it's good.
And it's normally worse when somebody goes,
now don't use this on your radio show.
And it's like, I was never going to.
Oh, you're doing that.
They say that, though, it's really good and you wish you could have.
I'm like, oh, come on.
Even if I change your name.
Not if it's a family member for me, they go,
and this isn't for the show.
And at the end, you're like, you know, shit, it's not.
It's terrible, mate.
It's okay.
It's okay.
All right.
So is this a head or a mask, Clint?
Well, there was a lot of drinking involved.
So you have to, I guess.
When is they not with you?
Yep.
Keep that in mind.
and she threw out a stat
and I was actually surprised by the stat
I didn't think it was going to make the show
but here we are
out of the blue
you're just drinking talking about friends
I don't know
Have you fact tested it?
Yeah I have
Okay so it's true
She goes
Do you know how many episodes of Mr Bean
were actually in late?
Oh yeah
I have heard of this fact
Is that like four?
Yeah there's not many
It's way less than you think
It's like four or five
Not including obviously
the movies when Mr. Bean goes on holiday and stuff.
But between the years of 1990
and 1995, so five years,
everyone knows Mr. Bean. You're like, man, they must have ripped out some
episodes. Do you know he was one of, in fact, voted one of the most
fake, he'd be a good one for A-lister, actually, Mr. Bean.
Because he was one of the most famous people on the planet.
Mr. Bean was syndicated into like 107 countries or something.
Mental, right? I mean, even my kids will watch Mr. Bean
cartoons on, like, YouTube and stuff.
So he obviously made a very large impression
She told me how many episodes they had made
Of Mr Bean
I said that can't be right
It's not enough
Clint, just tell me how many
How many do you think?
Four?
You think they made four or five
Because I've heard this before
I think it's like seven
Okay well then
You know it turns out
Maybe he did make a lot of episodes
Because it's twice as many as that
Oh 14
Yeah 14 to 15
Oh it's way that's eight
15 episodes
I just wait
Oh I missed a lot there
Oh my money
Mr. Bean.
Over five years, three episodes.
Mr. Boone.
What do you mean?
I thought it was like four.
Three episodes a year for five years.
You don't think anyone would know who this dude is.
It's quite good.
Bean.
No, when Dan thinks he's got a new impression.
I've nailed one.
I've got another one.
So now I've got Michael Kane and Bean.
When Dan Lixie's now one, it becomes the bane of our existence
because Dan just practices to see if he can add it to his repertoire.
Mr. Bean.
it's good that is good
Teddy beer
like how is teddy beer?
Yeah
It's pretty good
And he doesn't say much else
So it's pretty good
Yeah
That's all anyone
That's all he does
Actually can I say Clint's is better now
Fucker he is actually quite good enough
He does the face as well
He actually looks a bit like Mr. Pinkhead
Get your Clint McGinn back
Fix
For the first time
Oh
Dan that's not right
Leave it to me mate
Oh piss off Clint
Clint
Every time
Okay
Anyway, it's this one.
No!
Okay, you can do it now.
Sorry, I had a couple of goes.
Hello, stranger.
I don't know this his kid's first time calling us.
Is this the first time they've called us, Carl?
No, it's not.
Producers car?
No, it's not.
Do you want me to come in and push the button?
Well, don't tell me it's a first time caller because then otherwise I'll get that.
First call of a day!
First call on the day!
Morning, Finn, you're not a first time caller, but we love you nonetheless.
How are you, mate?
Morning, fellas, and ladies.
Thank you.
Thank you so much for that.
Appreciate that, not being lugged in as a fella.
Great news for you, Finn, because you've called this week, and it wasn't last week, MTF financier our new sponsor,
and they've just given you $100 cash for joining us on the show this morning, bro.
Thank you very much.
That's much appreciated.
Now, before we get into your fact that is about platypuses, brilliant.
Who was it platterpussi?
Oh, I don't know.
Oh, I don't think it's platy pussy.
I think it's platterpussy.
All right.
Carl, you've spoken too much on the breakfast show this morning.
We're turning your mic off. Turn in my mouth.
It's all being smut.
Right, Finn, go on.
That platypuses don't actually have nipples.
They secrete milk out of their skin.
What?
So if they're feeding their babies, the babies just lick mum wherever.
Just like a cheesecloth that you're squeezing out.
Yeah, it must be out of their paws, their feet.
The feet?
Platerpuses are an interesting creature, aren't they?
Because you look at them on face value, they're like a otter.
But then they've got a beak like a duck.
And they've got webbed feet like a dut.
duck. So they're half duck. And they also lay
eggs, right? Like for their babies.
They're not like mammals. I'm looking
at it out. It's absolutely fascinating
Finn. Well, let me show you a picture boy.
Look, it really is
like, it secretes out their tummy
and their feet and the little babies just like
have a little schmorgs board. Oh, and they
just go to town just having to lick wherever.
It is actually quite disgusting if you look at the photos.
Really? Yeah, find it quite odd.
I think it's amazing. They're incredible creatures though, aren't they?
Imagine if that was us.
if we didn't have nipples
and ladies just to secret a milk
milk half their tummies
aren't they
only from Australia as well
we have a look for you
well this is your fact
but now we're getting
outside of Finn's knowledge
Finn's come with a
fact and some questions
I didn't know that was going to happen
come on Meg he's giving you something
now you give him something
they're native exclusively
to Eastern and South Eastern Australia
okay now Meg
Google this
are they half duck half
Half otter.
And I'd love to know
Are they aggressive in nature?
Because they look like you could swim up to one
and give it a pat.
Oh yeah.
Okay, okay.
And let me see.
So plato posters are not a hybrid animal,
not half duck,
half otter.
They look more like a beaver,
like in the back end.
They're very cute.
I'm just looking at a photo now.
Very cute little thing.
And they are,
when it comes to their demeanor clint,
they're rather placid and shy.
Oh.
They're not very aggressive.
They're not going to nibble at you with their beaks.
Oh my God.
And I'm just looking at a photo of a baby one.
smaller than a palm of a hand when they're a small baby.
Wow.
Isn't that incredible?
Well, there you go, Finn.
You've taught us something.
We've taught you something.
It's a win-win.
This has been a circle jerk of a fact thing.
And we'll move on.
Oh, and you're throwing Carla under the bus.
Hey, well, Finn, spend your hundred bucks, mate.
Thanks to our MTF finance.
Thanks for taking the time and thanks for choosing us and listen to us first, bro.
No, thank you.
That will go straight to the rejo payment.
Thanks you.
Nice, thanks, Finn.
Actually, Clint, I don't want to lead you astray if you do a go
Australia, which is likely because you have so many holidays.
The males can be quite aggressive.
They've got venomous glands and spikes on their legs.
Oh, okay.
So the women are excreting milk and the men are excreted in poison.
God, by that point, we're just making stuff up.
All right.

When you are, this is what's been happening overnight in the world of entertainment.
Coming up in scandal headlines.
What does Kim Kardashian said about her relationship?
But what scares ex-Spiderman, Andrew Garfield, the most.
Coming up.
Give me with a gossip.
Bege scandal this morning.
Kim Kardashian has said that she needed to completely heal before dating again.
She was single for five years before she started dating with Hamilton.
Five years, she said completely.
And I thought this is super interesting.
It's the first time I've ever really seen it from her.
But when she was asked about her relationship with Lewis,
her reply was, I'd rather not talk about him in the politest way possible.
That's great.
It seems from the outside looking in
They seem very happy, don't they?
Don't they?
She's got a type, though, eh?
But Lewis, I don't know how any relationship could work
With a Formula One driver, early relationship.
Because he's away constantly.
They're constantly on the road.
When I was looking at him, like, you know, like Kanye,
just this like, like,
oozing, from appearance-wise, you know,
when you have your type on paper,
this, like, cool guy, really into his fashion,
quite quirky.
Lewis Hamilton is exactly the same.
But I think...
But then you got Pete Davidson.
Yeah, he was a blip.
Yeah.
He didn't hang in very long, man.
He's not really the time.
True, because he doesn't fit that mold, doesn't he?
Yeah, no.
And what scares Spider-Man, Andrew Garfield, the very most?
Being a dad.
Scares the doubt of me.
So great.
It scares me so much.
I think that would be the biggest, most important thing I ever probably do.
I know that to be true.
It makes me want to cry thinking about it.
I know what it's like to be on the other end of it, you know?
You know what I mean?
I've been a child.
I know, it's really.
I've been a son.
Yeah, it's true.
I thought the same went before I became a dad,
but it's really easy.
You just put them on a jolly jumper and forget about them.
Yeah.
And that's why you have multiple kids,
because you're going to mess him up,
and that's why the eldest is really the test dummy.
And I can look back on my life,
and I see that it was different for my younger brother
than it was for me.
Yeah.
I could get many examples, but we don't have time.
Exactly, and this is just a scandal break,
so play something else.
I think it was a nice thing.
I think if you were,
worried about it before even having kids, you're probably going to be a good parent.
Yeah, I agree.
It should be something you worry about.
It's not the most important thing.
Take it seriously.

The Edge.
Just hits.
In Auckland.
The Edge.
The Edge.
Clint Meg and Dan.
It's actually probably a fun chat maybe for another time, maybe for today.
I'm not sure.
But like, the differences between eldest child to, like, youngest child in terms of what happened to you and then the different way that they were parented.
I remember I got caught driving with a passenger on my restricted during the day,
and mum took my keys off me for like a week.
And then when my brother would be like 11 p.m, he'd be leaving with like a carload of like mates.
And she'd be like, have fun.
Sounds like you're still scarred about it.
Still pisses you off.
Yeah, but the worst part was, we were coming home from the movies.
A mate and there was this car tailgating us.
So I'm boosting to try and get away from them.
And he was speeding.
And they followed us all the way into my mate's driveway.
And my mate goes, bro, they're following us.
Let's get out, get ready to fight.
And he's ready to scrap this car.
And then I hear, Clinton, Randall, give me your keys.
Bloody hell.
Honestly.
We didn't fight her, obviously.
Clint McGee and Dan.
Edge Breakfast.
The Edge.
The Edge.
The Edge Festi Besties is back.
It's us!
And this time we could be seeing you and your bestie to see Harry Styles live in Australia.
Okay, you've had to make Harry Style signs to show us what you would take
and we want the best sort of sign scenario
so that hopefully he calls yours out.
That's what he's known to do.
Well, the best sign wins the tickets and the flights,
isn't it?
Absolutely, and then you take it.
We would expect you to take it.
Well, yeah, I guess so.
I guess it's a stipulation in a way, isn't it?
Otherwise, why have you made it?
I think so.
I think if you win for a sign
and then don't go over with the sign,
we're going to take those tickets off you.
What, Dan's going to go all the way over?
I'll fly over there.
Yeah, here's a couple of these read out in the past.
Says I just found out my cat as cancer
Cat had cancer
Anyone cracked up laughing
I thought that was interesting
The crowd doesn't care right
No matter what he says
No matter what he says
They'll do that
Somebody else went to granddad's funeral
The same day as Harry Stiles
And you can't time that
I imagine they bought tickets a long time ago
Maybe that's what Grandad would have wanted
Went to my grandmother's funeral today
All that had pissed you off how it was the same day
I'd be like oh come on all days
I'm going to Harry Stiles
I know
It'd be really hard I feel
as the parent at that point
if your kid did react like, well I've got
Harry Stiles, it's not fair, that's the same day.
Your dad that died, I'd be like,
what child have I raised?
True. That'd be so hard. I wonder what the parent thought
in that. Okay, so I've got some of the signs so far.
This one's from Hannah. It says
from baker to heartbreaker
and it's a sign of him with photos
of him because he used to be a baker.
That's not bad. I don't hate that.
Because I think he would look at that and go,
that's really clever. And it's real
personal to me. Paying homage to
who he was back in the day in a different
life. And I like the way that she's designed it
as well. I have all these been made as well.
The people have made the sign. Yes, they all have made.
You had to make the sign and then submit a photo of it.
You've gone until Monday to do it too, by the way. Text Harry to 334.3
for the link. Artistic merit does come into this as well
because you could have the best line, but it's drawn
badly on a piece of card. Yeah, Katrina's
done quite a few. One of them is
mum for sale here, respect your mother.
And then the mum is in the photo too saying certified pre-
owned mum, good condition.
Oh my God.
That's that one there.
Okay, this one I thought was kind of cute.
Harry, this is your last chance before I get married.
Oh, so she's going, you know, I have a ride on this before this ride closed.
Yeah, and then it says made from consent with, from current fiancé.
Failed religious education because I thought you were God and then they've made him
into a kind of God-looking.
Oh, you're like I use AI to make him look like he's Jesus welcoming.
you to the pearly gates.
I'm not a huge fan of AI slop, if I'm honest.
I've used a bit of slop there.
Do you think that's AI?
It looks like it.
I think they've just did a really good
Photoshop of his head on paint
onto some other god.
I disagree.
I think that's terrible photo.
Terrible AI.
I'll be your feather bower.
Let me wrap my legs around
your neck.
Jesus.
Is he reading that?
Hannah, you naughty girl.
He loves a feather boa, doesn't he?
I don't know if he's wearing many on his current tour,
though.
I think that was the love on tour era.
I don't think he's wearing these.
It's more shorts on this tour.
Yeah, this one as well.
Australian visa application that it says Eva,
purpose of visit, shopping and seen Harry styles,
and then length of stay until Harry tells me to leave.
So he's done kind of like a visa-looking one.
Oh, yeah.
It's creative.
It's creative it is.
Olive Rose.
Yeah, so those are some of the signs so far.
Can we still enter?
Yep.
It says get your engine before Friday.
I like the first one.
I think the first one's the leader for me in terms of that.
from Baker a Heartbreaker.
Do you know what else is, well,
they've got photos of Harry
from when he's a baby
and then as he gets older and older and older.
There's about seven photos
as he progressively ages.
Likelihood of reading it out,
but it might make him smile.
I don't know why he'd read that out about himself.
It's all also about where you are in the stadium,
I think as well.
Like if you're quite close to the stage,
and I know the stage is massive on this tour,
it goes right in the middle of the arena, doesn't it?
Uh-huh.
So he could see it.
Oh, so you're saying if you're really far away,
he might not be able to see you or so.
Unless you've got really big block lettering.
I would, yeah, I would say if you heard that
and you thought one of those
is going to win tickets to Harry Styles and flights and everything,
I can do better.
Then do it.
Yeah.
But there's no point if you're going to be far away writing little lettering,
that's what I'm saying, because you need it to make,
be big and clear, like, simple as good.
So if I show up to Harry Styles with you
and I've written it on a piece of A4, you're going to be quite disappointed in me.
I definitely will be disappointed.
And I'll go, you shouldn't have won this competition.
Good to know.
Harry to 33443 if you want to get a monster
and have us calling you Monday with the good news that you're going for free.
Easy money in 20 minutes.
I'll give you the...
Have we got the letter?
Yeah, no.
Just checking now.
Then you can start pondering.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
Oh, yes, we do.
We've got it.
F4.
Okay.
Sorry, I had to mute his mic there.
No.
No.
No.
Listen live weekdays from Sex on Rover and catch up wherever.
This is Clint, Meg and Dan
The Edge
It's Clint Meg and Dan's
Let's settle this
Let's settle this right now
Meg
Yes
How often do you wash your undies
Every time I wear a pair
Oh that doesn't sound like you do
What do you mean?
No, I'm sorry, Your Honor
All the time
Every time
Every time I'm sorry they came across
I meant that in the way of like
Clearly obviously every time I wear a pair
Ding ding ding, ding
Correct that is the right way to be doing it
According to a study
In fact sometimes if I have a shower
Like in the middle of the day, I won't put my old undies back on.
So I sometimes wear two pairs of undies at a day.
Yeah, good.
I think if you're showering, you're getting out.
You should just put a fresh pair on.
You're all the same as a friend of mine.
It's a dude as well.
He'll do two pairs of undies a day.
So you'll change.
Swap out his undies in the middle of the day.
How gross having a shower and then chucking on a pair of undies you've been wearing all morning?
So how often should you wash different types of clothes?
This has come out.
Bras surprised me.
Because I'm not a bra wearer.
But apparently two to three weeks.
You could be if you really want to do it.
They've got your size.
I've got your size.
Hey, I all have you know, Meg.
I've been to the gym quite a bit over the last few weeks,
and those man boobs are going down.
Being replaced with pectorals.
Right.
Still a little bit there, though.
Nice and firm.
Jeans, every six to ten wears.
That really surprised me.
That is a lot of wears between washes.
Yeah, that's true.
Especially if you're running a sweaty leg.
A sweatshirts five to six wears, I guess, because that's not hitting your skin because you're usually wearing some sort of t-shirt or something underneath it.
To me, that's more you've probably got a bit of food on it.
Yeah.
You know, a sweatshirt, you probably got something on it.
Yeah, and that's me and you.
I always spill something on my foot shirt.
Bloody oil when I'm working on my car and stuff.
I'll pass off, but you have a Tesla.
What are you talking about?
There might be new listeners.
They don't know.
What are you doing getting under the car and fixing the engine?
I want to rebrand.
I want to be the type of guy that works on my car on the weekends.
This one also surprised me, pajamas.
say that you only need to wash pyjamas every three to four wears.
You're laying in them for like a good eight hours.
I think it depends like if you're having a shower just before bed though.
Which I do.
Then you are the clean.
Although, don't they reckon you sweat like half a cup every day or something or every night?
Yeah, I don't wear pajamas anymore because of Dan.
Yeah, we, Meg and I both sleep nude now.
Not in the same bed.
But yeah, he made me try it once and I was like, oh, this is much better.
Honestly, try it.
If you've never slept nude before, it's a game changer.
It's such a comfortable experience.
Every time you roll over, don't you end up rolling on things and getting, I don't know, it's all in comfy.
Why don't you talk about rolling on things?
You get all tangled up.
Is that how, Jesus Christ, Clint?
Anyway, so if you know, if you're built like me and not like Clint, give it a go.
But the one that really surprised me is it said that you should be washing brand new clothes before you wear them.
Oh, your wife does that.
My wife does it and it pisses me off.
Because I always say when you buy a new pair of clothes, whether it be a t-shirt, pants, they're never going to be as nice as,
the first time you wear them before to wash.
Like that crisp white tea.
Yeah.
Or like a nice pair of denim jeans before they've been washed.
I couldn't agree more.
Socks.
The same thing, like a fresh pair of socks.
Unless you're buying them from Sheen and then have that weird sort of factory smell.
Yeah.
Well, you don't want to buy sweatshop stuff anyway.
I'm pretty sure that's just the tears of young children that have been forced to do labor.
So yeah, don't buy them.
So yeah, don't buy them.
It dries into the clothes.
Yeah, yeah.
Right.
I don't think that there'd be many people out there that are washing their clothes before they wear
and I'm talking brand new clothes.
Okay, let's settle this.
Are you your type of person that, you know, when you buy a brand new top jeans, dress,
you go, I'll wash that first.
You definitely don't do it with a dress because most of them, you'd have to dry clean.
Yeah, there's no way.
My wife's defences, she goes, I don't know what they did at the factory before I want.
What are you thinking they're doing, like rubbing their genitals on?
I'm not sure.
People trying them on and sore.

Dan's giving us a list of how often you should be washing different items of clothing.
But the shocking one is something that your wife does that you do not.
Yeah, they say that you should wash brand new clothes before you wear them.
Which I think's just crazy because they're never going to be better than when they're brand new.
Do you know how interesting conversation we just had off here with producer Carl?
Because I said, I suppose it depends.
What about if people are trying on the shirt in the store and it's being worn by six people before you finally decide to purchase it?
That's true.
Yeah.
So he finds the item that he likes.
and then once you decide that's for you,
what do you then do?
Well, once I've tried on the one near the front of the rack,
then I'll go right to the back of the rack
and find it in my size.
Or same with like shoes.
I'll try on all the shoes
that have been tried on by everyone else.
And now I'll go through all the boxes until I find the one
the paper's crisp, but still got the stuffing inside.
I do the same, Carl.
What if it's out the back, though?
You know, like when you go to a platypus or something,
the boxes are never there quite often.
The lady has to go out the back.
I've done this, so I've hidden the ones that I've tried on,
and I've said, do you have these in a nine?
Oh my gosh.
Sorry, at 12, I mean, a 12, definitely 12.
Oh, my God, you've got children feet.
God, you have small feet.
Oh, yeah, me.
My goodness.
Wow.
Yeah, no, I understand that with Carl completely.
I like to do the same.
You try and find the one that's the least tried on, the least worn.
Yeah.
What do you have going for you, Carl?
Your ginger, ball?
No, no, I'm just joking.
Oh, just friends and family, really is what gets me up in the morning.
He's got a superb.
He's got a super hot wife.
He does.
The universe was like, give him something.
Yeah, he does.
My goodness.
Yeah.
All right.
Leah, what do you reckon?
let's settle this. Are you washing brand new clothes after you've purchased them?
I mean, my kids' clothes.
Oh, yeah, that's different, eh?
Yeah, definitely doing the wash first.
I don't know if we did that.
You didn't wash your baby's kids? Your wife would have. You just didn't do it.
I don't know. I don't remember her to it. I would have said something to her.
That's crazy. They're brand new.
Yeah, but I think it's different with kids clothes. You don't want, like, the chemicals within the thing to react to their skin so you'd wash them just to be safe.
You don't wash your baby clothes before you put them on the baby?
So you're saying my wife would have washed the baby clothes, but then wouldn't wash my clothes.
Why am I less important?
Because you don't have sensitive of skin.
Oh, okay.
You're not a newborn baby, you idiot.
Sorry, Leah.
Yeah, absolutely.
It's good to know.
Sorry, Leah, you've had to witness us and bickering.
Thanks, Leah.
Sharon, do you wash brand new clothes before you wear them?
A thousand percent.
And I'm with pretty sick how, actually.
I'm the same.
I go to the back of the rat.
You just don't know who's worn them before you.
And then do you...
When I've had someone who's had a skin infection,
has worn them and that's all on your skin.
Okay.
Then, are you someone who has never purchased from an op shop?
No, no, I do.
My mom actually gets a lot for them for my children, for myself.
We use them.
I just make sure we wash them before, put them into.
I also actually use a laundry sanitizer for our softness.
That makes us a softness.
Yeah, I've had infections in the past, and you just learned for the doctor that things can
come through from quotes that are unwashed because of people who have worn them before.
Maybe we've changed the game for a lot of people listening this morning.
I may be thinking of now washing clothes before I wear them.
But like a crisp, fresh t-shirt, it's never as good as when you first take it home from the store.
Yeah, but Clint, there's some scumbags out there, you know, that have come in with their...
With what?
Like, it's skin infections and go, good day to go and try it on clothes.
Yeah.
You never know.
You never know.
Maybe they've got some sort of fungal infection that I put on a t-shirt before you.
That's awful.
I've got a far, sorry, I've got my nipple fungal infection.
I'll go shopping.
I'll just put on a size.
small, medium, large and excel
so I can just cover all my bases.
But have you got a nipple fungal infection and gone out brawless as well?
Yes.
It's just a nightmare.
Anyone who's just tuned in?
It's like, Mick's got a walk.
Coming up for the each breakfast.
All right, Easy Money's next.
90 seconds away.
Your cut to course.
Now, if you want to have a crack at it, the letter is F.
Meg will give you 30 seconds.
For fungal infection.
Yes.
Like my nipple.
Yeah.
Give us 10 answers and the cash is yours.
We got close this time yesterday.
Did you get some cream for that out of interest?
Oh, it's a cream is the pill.
and the whole thing,
yeah.
It's quite the treatment.
I wait under the edge.
Easy money.
Time for your favorite game.
Easy money.
Right, the letter is F today.
If you can give us 10 answers
in 30 seconds,
starting with the letter F,
the cash is yours.
You just can't like yesterday
give us the same answer twice.
Yeah, F for Foxtrot
if you're into the phonetic alphabet there.
Mark's playing this morning.
Hi, Mark.
Hi.
Hi, Mark.
Oh, Mark?
Mark.
Mark, like Margarita.
I thought he said Mark.
And I was like, I've never heard Mark to be a unisex name.
Sorry, Mark, Mark, Mark.
Although a lot of uni-sex names are coming in now.
I know a girl called Neville.
So, Mark.
Oh, you don't.
Interesting.
You shouldn't.
Letter Eiff.
Baby, little baby Neville.
Let her if, ready to go?
Yes, thanks.
You sound nervous, Marg.
Deep breaths.
I am.
Okay, here we go.
You need to calm yourself.
Your time will start at the end of Meg asking you your first question.
You got this.
Give me an animal.
Fox.
A number.
Five.
A body part.
Face.
Something that you buy a ticket for.
Pass.
A country.
France.
An app on your phone.
Pass.
Something you can drink.
Center.
A gym franchise.
Fitness.
A work that ends in.
Time, Mug.
Unfortunately, just not quite quick enough.
I think you actually had a pretty good run,
but something you buy a ticket for,
we had ridden down a festival, a ferry, a flight.
And the app on your phone we had Facebook,
or I guess, FaceTime flow of Happy Bird.
Facebook was probably the biggest one that you might kick yourself over with that one.
And Fitness City sounds like a nightmare.
A whole city dedicated to fitness.
I'm sure there is a gym out there called Fitness City.
Yeah.
Well, thanks for calling, giving it a crack mark.
Appreciate you.
Thanks, guys.
Have good day.
You too.
She sounded lovely.
She was nervous, wasn't she?
She was nervous, sweet.
Back again at 8 o'clock if you want to crack it up for a thousand bucks.
Up next, did anyone go to Jason DeRullo last weekend?
I've heard it was incredible.
I didn't go, but I saw a lot on social.
He put his, like he was...
Oh my God.
Nothing out.
So good.
This is the Clint McGinn, Dan catch up.
Want to hear the guys off air and a little looser?
Listen and watch their Overtinkers podcast.
Did you go to DeRullo?
It was not the Saturday, just gone the one before.
It was, um, yeah, while we were.
were on holiday that first week of school holidays.
It was on a Sunday at Spark Arena in Auckland.
Which is not a great night for Jason Duralo, is it?
Not really, I guess.
Not a Sunday night.
Although I suppose it was going to school holidays.
So, you know, parents, if they want to take kids,
you could push the boat out.
I'm not sure whether a lot of people did take their kids.
We did.
And I had to cover my son, my nine-year-old son's eyes a few times
with some of the dancing and that.
Oh, my God.
Anyway.
Jesus, how bad was it?
Oh, well, some of the dancers were,
Unlike anything I saw when I was nine
Put it that way
But
God did he put on a show
One of the best
concerts I've been to in a very
Very very very long time
Just bang after bang
Yeah
He just has such an incredible set list
How?
What was the ratio of him having a shirt on
To having it off
During the concert
Well he did outfit changes as well
Which I know you're like yeah
Women do that
But not a lot of male performance
I think going and doing outfit changes
and then the backup dancers
and then they've got the guy dances
and he's doing the synchronised dance move
with the old Britney Spears La Pelle Mike
he got into a black singlet
for the sort of back third
of the night
and then he took it off for the last two songs
Oh yeah so all the girls got what they wanted
but he teased them through the night
I'm happy to hear that he did outfit changes
I'm bit sick of
you know male performers not having to do all the bits of bobs
and I like to hear that
I remember Clint and I went to Luke Combs the first time he came to New Zealand.
Before he played at Eden Park, I think he played at Spark Arena.
Remember that, Clint?
And the most interesting thing he did was do a shooey.
Yeah, he just walked around with a red cup full of like bourbon and coke,
and that was about as animator as the bro got.
Phenomenal singer, great music.
Love him.
But he was just in a black t-shirt, just drinking Jim Beam on stage,
just belting out tunes.
Whereas DeRullo, like, you would think he's just walking around stage at times,
and then there'd be parts of a song where he would just jump into synchronified.
he'd be synchronized with the dancers.
He was doing so much.
My wife said she saw him drip with sweat from the elbow
when he was talking to the crowd.
Wow.
And I just thought, are we giving guys a free pass
when it comes to concerts and performing on stage
and just going, yeah, that's fine.
He turns just wearing a black t-shirt.
Cool for him.
It's like, no.
Why is he not doing as much as Taylor Swift and Beyonce?
Can I do a little derailed train of thought here
for a second and then come back on?
This would be really good for him.
hit the spot, by the way, Dan.
I reckon Jason Derulo.
Have you done one before?
Never done a Drullo.
Never done a Durulow.
I'm open to doing some Jason.
Just planting that little idea to you.
I think he would be good.
This song in particular, maybe.
Yeah, this would be good coming when the trumpets.
There's a bit.
Just an idea.
You're all right, though.
I think you're on to something.
I can't name a male artist,
apart from Durulow that's doing any costume changes.
No.
I mean,
Harry Stiles did a crazy outfit, but he never changed.
Right?
Yeah, he'd be one of the few
that's actually doing anything
apart from just standing there and singing.
Yeah, true.
You know, like Ed Sharon, I guess he's doing,
he's doing his Luke pedal.
So he's doing at least something.
But other male artists,
they were essentially just standing up
the same costume, singing songs.
Yeah.
Yeah, and I just feel like
for what we now have to pay
to go to a concert,
and we've got like four incredible female artists
that are all coming to New Zealand this month
in Lily Allen, Olivia Dean,
Hillary Duffin, Zara Larson.
And you can guarantee
they're going to be putting on a show.
Not just singing their songs.
And I think when you're paying 200 bucks a ticket,
the expectation is you should go away with this like,
all your senses have been satisfied in terms of this incredible performance you've witnessed.
Do you know who does do it?
Bruno Mars.
He does.
Yeah, true.
He is one that I feel like is holding the standard of men of performing a big stage show
and you feel like you're getting an actual performance.
But do you know what I'm going to do a bounce back, I think?
There's a photo of Ed Sheron performing with Beyonce that.
always sticks in my mind. She's wearing
what can only be described as a dress you'd
wear to like the Met Gala. It's huge
voluminous, who hears all done, her makeup's
all done, and she's singing next to him
and he's in a T-shirt and sneakers. And
it's just such a juxtaposition to see
like how much the standard is of his
was totally acceptable, but if she wore
a T-shirt and sneakers, she'd, you know,
obviously that would be unacceptable.
Yeah, okay. That's a good example. Another great
example is from Coachella this year.
Sabrina Carpenter.
Incredible set. Incredible
costume changes, incredible dancing
and then Justin Bieber, who sat
next to a laptop and did YouTube videos.
Yeah, you're so... All right.
I was giving guys a free pass.
And is it like, all right, we've had enough.
We want Derulo-based performances from all male artists
from now on.
I think they need to step up their game.
Clint McGinn-Tan, Edge Breakfast.
Hey, when I saw Jason Durillo, he did
one concert at Spark Arena in Auckland.
And he was
everything I hoped he would be.
And more.
It was a phenomenal show, incredible performance.
I don't know how many dudes are doing synchronised dance moves to almost every single song
with an incredible vocal.
Dripping was sweat at the end of it.
The dude left nothing on the table.
Somebody texted said, I can't talk on the phone, but oh my God, I was there.
He was amazing.
Everyone had their own unique thing.
The dancers were amazing.
We'll also dance in his singing 10 out of 10.
Yeah.
Good on him.
I think going above and beyond, especially as a male these days, all the girls do it.
They're all trying their best.
They're dancing, their costume changing.
I love this text.
Studio, as it's like, you know, saying it's going to us,
are men getting a free pass?
Because that's the question we're asking?
Yes, I don't care what you're referring to.
The answer is yes.
She's just going in general.
It's in general men are getting a bit of a free pass.
Yeah, right.
Okay, well, it's not our fault we're men.
There are some that are doing it all right.
I mean, Michael Jackson back in the day was a, I guess,
he was a benchmark that nobody would reach
in terms of putting on a performance.
You're so right, Clint.
Man, if I'm trying to think of there's, who's the Michael Jackson now?
I used to think it was a bit of Jason, but a lot of his stay show stuff is like sexy stuff.
And Michael never did sexy.
He never did like grinding on stage and female dancers and stuff.
He just performed himself.
But I mean, I think.
Justin could have been now, I think.
I think Justin has the potential.
Still does.
I just hate how he just stands there now.
And people say, oh, he's earned the right to do that.
No, keep dancing.
We want to see you dancing.
I think we should expect more from our male performers.
And I mean, yeah, if it's country and that,
a little bit slow, oh, I don't know.
Line dance and one of them. Do something, man.
Like, I don't know. It needs to be some sort of visual experience
when you're asking $200 per person for a ticket to most concerts give or take, right?
It also depends, I think, on a little bit what type of performer you are.
Say, for instance, you're Adele, okay?
She's known for her vocal. She's not dancing, is she?
She's not doing any of that on stage.
So she would happily, I'd say, get up in front of a microphone,
and you're there to hear her.
sing.
Absolutely.
You're still seeing her dressed up, though.
She's not wearing sneaker and jeans.
No, she's not.
But I don't think she'd be doing many
costume changes.
Maybe a couple during the show.
Well, there is a list of
some of the most luster male
performers.
Leon Gallagher.
Not shocking.
Okay.
It's one of them.
Oh, but they're a band.
It's different for a band.
Yeah.
Chris Stapleton's in the mix.
John May is there at number four.
I really love John Mayer, but I think if you're
there and you love the music and slide guitars
and there's something, there's a time in place.
I want to sit at John Mayer's concert.
I want to sit with a chakotery board.
I don't think he's dropping it down while he's also got a guitar.
That would be impressive.
That would be tough.
Jack Johnson comes in at number four.
I haven't heard from that dude in a while.
Yeah, that's very true.
James Arthur, number three.
Coming out number two for the most lackluster male performer.
George is, right?
The funny thing is a lot of these ones, what are they doing now?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And probably, oh, this is bad, but Lewis Capaldi,
huge voice, emotional songs, great chat.
No dancers, no costume changes.
But at least he's a bit of chat, you know, a bit of personality in there.
And he's a vocalist.
You go to hear him sing.
Yeah, like Adele.
Like Adele.
But he is the female Adele, isn't he?
Yeah, yeah, he is.
But again, he wears sneaker and jeans.
Could put it on a suit.
Yeah, someone else is.
Wait, Ben some boons out here trying to do the most.
He's doing Spider-Man.
And then someone said, and Dan wants him to stop doing the backflop.
I did get a little bit of the ick from Benson Boone.
Oh, but he can't win then.
You can't have it both ways.
You can't say, I want you to dance, monkey.
Perform for me.
And then as soon as he does, you go, nah, it's a barren baby.
He's dressing up for Spider-Man.
My two-year-old son does that.
I'm all for encouraging it.
Try harder.
Do more.
Get your Clint Meg and Dan Fax.
The Edge.
On the Edge Breakfast, brought you by NTF Finance,
your local money experts for personal and business finance.
Interesting, you're talking about money and finance
Because that's exactly what my mates are talking about
On the group chat at the moment
So what, can you give me a little example
So I'm going to say something jargony
I'm going to be one of your mates
And then how do you reply?
Yeah, they're talking like, okay
The crypto's going crazy with the stocks at the moment
I've bought a few more bits and bobs in the who-wots
I'd go
Even I know that that's not
Okay, I'm trying
You'd be like, Chris, I think someone's hacked your account
Who is this?
I don't think there's such thing as a who-what
But hey, okay
Okay, but if that was...
If you're investing in who wants, you've gone wrong.
I bought six dinglehoppers and all of them have gone down.
You could have just played along.
I was just trying to set up the scenario
as if the language didn't make sense to you.
I'm like, use your imagination.
Dingleberries have gone up in the last three days.
You're just like...
Meg must have chat jealtyed some sort of crypto jargon.
No, I didn't even do that.
No, free snar.
Like, oh, hoagie to toys, he's dropped out the ass.
I don't use AI, Clint, stuff you.
Right, so we want to talk about
what are you trying to pretend that, you know,
the English language.
Yeah.
What is it for you?
Yeah, a couple of my mates have got into crypto.
They're just sort of dabbling at this point, but it's just full of the group chat at
the moment.
They're just like going, oh, dog coins is the way to go.
Alt coins.
I'm going into alt coins.
Wait, stable coins.
And it's just like, I don't care.
Do you know what?
It's so above me.
If they listen to this podcast, they could start trolling Dan.
Yeah.
Talk about the dingleberries and the who-wots.
Dangled angles.
That was show you.
Yeah, you know, I bought two of them last week.
But I know he didn't, mate.
Made it up again.
True.
I would be none the wiser.
Hey, we've got Johnny on 0-800-the-edge.
Johnny, it's your partner and something they're interested in.
What are you pretending you know about?
Horses.
Do you know what?
I try and be the better man and try and help, like, get it ready.
Yeah.
And she's like, get the bridle and the saddle and everything else.
Sattle cloth.
And I'm thinking, holy shit, I'll just grab a whole lot of stuff and I hope it's right.
Oh, my God.
Johnny, you and me both, my wife's also a crazy horse lady.
And it's a real, like, baptism of fire early stages in a relationship, isn't it?
when they're into horses.
Yep, she had oil for the shoes, and I grabbed the oil can,
thinking it was what she wanted over there.
She'd oil for the oil.
She grabbed the oil can because she said get the oil, so, yeah.
I had to clean my wife's horse's hoofs once.
Did you?
And it was a nightmare.
How did you know how to do that?
Oh, I just, she gave me like this little apparatus,
like this little hook thing, and you like hook all the mud out of the horse's hoof.
Well, that would have been so satisfied.
It was satisfying.
Are there TikToks that, I reckon there will be TikToks out there that people watch
hoof to clean in?
Dad's going to ruin my algorithm now.
My phone's always listening.
Thanks very much.
And John, are you into hodgepodgeing or any of that?
Do you know what the Bitcoin's doing at the moment?
Nah, I don't either for guys like you, Dan, they know everything, brother.
I'm not good.
Thanks, John.
Thank you, thank you.
I just do.
If you're mates are making money, I'd just be like, what are you doing?
And then you just copy it.
You do what they do.
Yeah.
I mean, Carl and I are on a group chat with remote control cars.
Yeah.
But all the dudes in there are remote control car fans.
And when I say all the dudes, this is,
three of us.
I know there are girls out there that are not calling or texting in,
and I know you've pretended to be interested in something when you've been trying to pursue a guy.
It's the oldest trick of the book.
I did it.
But then don't you get found out when the relationship starts getting serious, and then you're like,
oh-oh.
Once you locked it in, you just kind of go, I'm not interested anymore.
Oh, you come clean that you never knew anything about it.
Sometimes you can just let them think.
Like, I remember my husband was really into midsomer murders, which is a program.
From the UK.
And was he a virgin before he met you,
but out of interest?
Oh, Rich coming from you, buddy.
Definitely not.
Laura, your son is into something
that you have no interest or knowledge in?
Yeah, he's into Muay Thai kickboxing.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
So he has been talking to me about spiders for years.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Tell me everything you know about Muay.
You've said it away.
That's well, it's moit Thai.
Yeah, well, I don't know anything.
Mute.
I mean, it originates from
Thailand, obviously, but I just remembered
some of their random names, like
Boa Cow, Sukalek, Rod Tang.
Yeah. Yeah. So I just
try to remember some of their names
and it seems more like I
understand. Yeah, but
really I have no clue. And that's so
important, I feel like parents' number one thing that they
can do, not number one, but definitely up there is to show
interest in their kids' interests. Yeah. Yes.
At all ages. I like that. It was important to them. It should be
important to you. Yeah. Love that, Laura.
She's trying. She's trying.
Yeah, mutae.
Mutai.
Muti.
It's a new sport.
It's like Muay Thai.
And Dingleberry cryptocurrency.
We've covered some bases today.
Alrighty.
You're a chance to get in the draw for Olivia Dean.
That is going to be coming up in 10 minutes.
Take the edge of your day with Clint Meg and Dan.
Edge.
This is Clint Megan Dan's, Olivia Dean's.
Nice to each other.
If you want to go and see Olivia Dean,
it's a sold-out show.
We've got a double pass to giveaway.
You have to call us up and give somebody a compliment.
I don't know.
We were away when this got...
You know what you could do?
Here's what I'd prefer.
Go on.
You call up and give one of us a compliment
and then the other two an insult.
Or is that sort of going against what the...
I don't know. It's more our style, I guess.
We did get this one.
A text and I thought I read it to you, Clint.
Okay.
I don't want the Olivia tickets, but I still love to give a compliment.
Oh, that's clever.
And then...
Because then we go, that is nice.
Let's just send her along.
Then she said, sorry, Meg.
I know this is your segment,
but I know this one's for Clint.
It's not my segment, Gen.
actually.
Yeah, this is your idea.
She's in the email.
Clint, you're obviously a very attractive man.
Physically, you're not my type.
Oh, Jesus.
But I find your personality next level attractive.
That might be a first.
You're funny, kind, so sweet and open-minded.
You're generous, you're friendly, you're intelligent.
I could go on and on, but I just love listening to you in the morning.
And if the world had more men like you, it would be a better place.
Thank you for being you.
So she likes you despite your looks.
Oh, God.
Is that great him?
Gina.
Oh, Jenna.
She's like, I'm looking past your ugly nature to your personality.
She likes you to spite how, like, she doesn't find you attractive.
How good that?
Gina, you sweet, sweet girl.
That's lovely.
That is lovely.
That's so lovely.
All right, let's go to the phone.
Sophia, who are you going to give a compliment to?
Meg, you were so gorgeous.
I love your smile.
I love your laugh.
Oh, thank you.
This is just what she wanted.
This is the reason she came up with the segment.
Did you have a compliment for Dan?
No, I don't need one.
Let's go on to the love.
And you're funny, and also you don't miss the spot.
Oh, now that is.
It's more waste than one, eh?
No.
No.
You can't do that with Lick as that is definitely cheating.
Sophia.
You're in the draw, Sophia.
You are in the draw, Sophia.
And Latisha, morning.
Good morning, team.
How we going?
Bloody good, Lettisha.
Yeah, so I thought that we had to be nice to one and then roast the other two.
Oh, like Dad's idea.
I like this.
This is my type of person.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I'll start with the roast, I feel like.
Clint has Big Dad at the Barbecue who won't stop telling the same story energy.
Yeah, God, you've nailed him there, Patricia.
Yeah, he does too.
And Dan, I would compliment you too, but I am trying to win Olivia Dean tickets to not make miracles happen.
Oh, stuff, stuff you, Letitia.
Piss off.
Sorry.
You're not in the draw now.
Don't listen to him.
And Meg
Trying to think of something
You are definitely got to get the compliment
Because you're effacently funny
And seem like someone I'd really want to hang out with
And I know, sorry, it's not your idea for the competition
Thank you for understanding that, Latisha
That's actually Meg's favourite compliment
People that find her funny
It's very true, Clint
It's very true
How are you laughing with her and not at her, that petition?
I'm still laughing.
Yeah, exactly.
Thanks, Latitia.
You're in the drawer.
Let's do one more in the drawer, quickly, quickly.
Hedda, quickly, what's your compliment?
Well, I was in the same boat as Latisha.
I thought we had to give two compliments.
Well, I've got two compliments in one row.
Oh, good, okay.
You're lovely.
Well, actually, my two compliments are both for Megan Clint.
I think you're both really inspirational parent.
And I'm just chopped liver.
No, I think it's really great qualities, but unfortunately I can't think of any right now.
You know what, Hannah, I think you're a piece of work as well.
And Dan has a kid.
We do have this one saying Clint, I love her resilient.
Oh, I think Hayden's on.
Hayden, one for Clint to end on.
I love to have resilient Clint is despite being most bullied on the show.
Oh, that's a kid.
He's not going on.
That's the last time we finish on Hayden.
Oh, you'll be gutted.
He loves it when we do that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right, that's really cool.
Actually, I'm enjoying this way more.
Okay, well, Dan is due for a compliment.
Dan's due for a compliment tomorrow, guys.
I want all Dan compliments tomorrow, please.
I don't want one.
Yes, you do.
No, I don't.
Yes, you do look at you.
You want a compliment.
Hey, producer, Carl, can you print out Jenna's text, please,
so I can put it on the walk here in the studio.
Please wrap it up.
Absolutely.
Thanks, buddy.
Listen to your favorite breakfast show, whenever you love.
like Clint Megan Dan.
The Edge.
Clint Megan Dan, what does your name say about you?
Say my name, say my name.
Meg's got a list.
I know Karen's copped a lot of flack for a number of years.
And then maybe it was the Karen's that tried to push that negativity onto Jessica's.
But like Meg said, it didn't really stick.
I think Karen's have had it for long enough.
I know a couple of lovely Karen.
Same.
I actually think it's gone like full circle.
Well, like a 180 now.
I think Karen's can be lovely.
This is, these are what people think about your name.
And this is why it feels so important when you're naming your child
because you don't realize that there are connotations to a name.
If you hear Dave, there's name's Dave,
you instantly, without even knowing it,
probably start creating a sort of personality type of them.
I doubt there'd be many newborn Karen's in rocking round, eh?
No, no, I think that name is, in fact, about to be extinct.
All right, let's go Dave.
Dave first.
Dave, he has owned the same barbecue for 14 years
and considers himself the family.
Chief
Chef.
He'll say,
I'll have a look at it.
Whenever something breaks,
then leaves it broken for six months.
Yeah,
I was going to say,
is he the type of guy
that can actually fix it?
He knows a guy
for absolutely everything.
I know a guy,
I know a guy.
And he has at least
one story that starts
with this one time
at the pub.
Honestly, that is nailed a Dave
for me.
I know one Dave quite well
and he is exactly that person.
Yeah, I would say
I know one Dave
and I think that's pretty
uncanny.
And you know what?
Most Dave's,
I would say they've missed there, they've got a heart of gold.
You know, the type of person you go...
I've broken down on the side of the road, Dave.
I know you're in Hamilton. I'm in Auckland.
Can you come pick me up and he would be there?
I would agree. They seem pretty like
a kind of family person.
You'd be like, you seem a bit down. Let me go get us shots.
Yeah, good guy. Thanks Dave.
All right, if you disagree and you know
somebody that Meg is going to throw out,
you know a Dave or whoever else, you can
veto the name next. But I don't
think you can veto it if it's your name
because then you have a vested interest in the outcome.
Maybe you know horrible, Dave.
I'd love to hear from you.
Do you know a Michelle?
Because apparently Michelle knows everybody's business.
Not because she's nosy, but because people just tell her things.
She has a story about every person mentioned in conversation.
And if somebody says, don't tell anyone, she's already mentally planning who she can tell.
I know a few Michelle's.
Final one, let's do Emma, because Jono texted this morning and said,
and Emma gave me a strep throat once, so I'm curious on that one.
So Emma is apparently apologised when somebody,
else walks into her. So if
somebody bumps into Emma, she goes, oh, sorry.
People pleaser. She says sorry when asking
somebody to move. Oh, sorry, is it okay if you move?
Because you're stepping on my foot. We'll let
someone push in front of her in a queue and then complain
about it to her friends quietly afterwards.
Oh my God, we've got a couple of Emmas that work here
with us. And I would say that it's nailed them.
They're very lovely. Almost too lovely.
People pleaser, yeah. Yeah.
Okay, well, if you disagree on
the description of Dave, Michelle
or Emma, you can veto them
next. 0800 the edge.
Or we'll lock it in, officially.
Yeah, agree.
Madison's text through saying,
my mum is Michelle and that is on point.
Yeah, love that.
So do you disagree or agree like Madison?
Oh, 800 the edge.
Yeah, or you can fire us a text if you got a busy morning,
334, 3.3.
There's veto time.
Do you disagree with the description
the med gave for Dave's, Michelle's and Emmys?
Just a quick recap on Dave.
He's the guy that is a bit of salt with the earth.
He'll say, I'll have a look at it
when something braced, but he probably doesn't actually go and fix it.
But he's always willing to have a look.
He knows a guy for absolutely everything and has at least one story that starts with this one time
at the pub.
This is a crowdsource thing from Reddit, by the way.
Thousands of people have pitched in on what your name says about you.
Very, mostly common names, aren't they?
Like your Dave's, your Evers.
Absolutely, absolutely.
I think we're trying to get somebody on that says he is a boss called Dave to see if he
agrees with this or not.
So we'll wait and see if he does.
Michelle, so far, we've only got feedback that.
agrees, knows everybody's business,
not because she's knows of it, because people just tell her things.
She's a story about every person mentioned in conversation.
Someone says, don't tell anyone, sorry, she's already mentally planning who she can tell.
Everybody, you need a Michelle in your life.
Jono wants to talk about Emmys who are supposedly going to make a push-over and will apologize
when someone else bangs into them.
Johnno.
Jono, you agree or disagree?
I disagree with Emma one.
It's a veto for me.
Beto for you.
What has an Emma done to you?
Many years ago I was dating one
She gave me strep throws
And the only Emma I know was her
And she was also a cheater
The cheater is probably more
More evidence than the strep throat
Yeah but she had a pushover
Did some guy hit on her and she's like
I got a boyfriend and they're like
But you're so hard
She's like okay fine
You know what I mean
And did she give me you strep throat
Because she was kissing another dude with strep throat
And then passed it on to you
Your throat is very irrelevant
Dan that's exactly it
Yeah
Thank you, Jono.
She's got a medicine.
Madison.
Your mum is a Michelle.
Do you agree with her description?
Oh, I 100% agree.
I've got it more, right?
Oh, yeah.
So she's a good gossip?
Oh.
Yes, all this has a story.
Does not stop talking about everyone's business.
I love it.
So when you get home, your mum's like, oh my God, Madison.
I've got something to tell you.
Oh, I walk in the door and, oh, my God, Madison,
you never guess what happened.
Delicious.
I love that.
I want to go over to see your mum.
Thanks, man.
It's a weird of a good trimake.
And, yeah, we've got a text from Harris,
and my boss's name is Dave.
He's absolutely gin.
Bises, pies and muffins at Smokov.
I've never met a bad day.
I genuinely have never met one.
You know what?
They're really good at driving diggers.
They've got one of those licenses where they can drive any type of vehicle.
Yeah, yeah, true.
You know, like a heavy truck license, digger license, anything.
Okay.
They can land a plane, I reckon.
I mean, I guess if you're, if you've got a baby to come and you're going through baby names,
Dave seems like a goodie.
We've vetoed Emma.
And Michelle, if you're like a bitch session.
Yeah, I'm just going to ignore that text that said my ex-Dave cheated on me.
Yeah, but could he land a plane, though?
Yeah, absolutely.
And was he actually a David?
Yeah.
He probably cheated on you because he was just too nice and couldn't say no.
And speaking of names, we've got A-Lister coming up after 8 this morning to see if they belong in the A-List, B-List or C-List.
You can vote now on Instagram stories as well.
Okay, cool.
Before we get to that, 90 seconds away from you, winning a thousand bucks with easy money.
Oh, 800 the end.
Easy money.
One letter.
10 categories and just 30 seconds.
Play, easy money.
Right, the letter this morning is P for getting paid.
$1,000 even if you give us 10 answers, no repeated answers.
In 30 seconds, the cash is yours.
Hey, Lisa.
Hello.
Hello, Lisa.
On Tiawu Mutu this morning.
How is it?
It's a beautiful Tiawamu this morning.
It's a beautiful blue day.
Gorgeous.
It's almost like, it'd be like $2,000 in Tiwamu.
I reckon you could buy the town.
Okay, too much.
You know.
No, not quite.
All right, Lace, your time will start at the end of Meg asking you your first question.
Here we go. Good luck.
Thank you.
Give me a fruit.
Pineapple.
A type of bird.
Ping ring.
A flower.
Pinoni.
A city.
Philadelphia.
Something to do with Cinderella.
Princess.
Something with buttons.
Pass.
A movie.
Ping ring.
Olympic event
Pass
A type of cocktail
Time Lisa
Oh my god
That was
Drink cocktails
Oh I know
Neither
That was such a good start
My goodness me
Yeah five from five
And then like Dan said
Passes breed passes
And did you say penguin or penguin
Penguin?
Oh good
No I that was twice
Yeah
Penguin twice
No I thought you did
I thought you did fantastic
You were so quick
With the pass as well
Was something with buttons
Pants or pyjamas
Or phone
So I guess those buttons?
Sometimes the easier question, stump you up.
Yeah, well done.
I've read Hayes the first time, so that's great.
I think you did great.
Thanks, Lisa.
They did very well.
Yeah, she did say Penguin quite, like, it was quite cute, didn't she?
Penguin.
Penguin.
Penguin.
Oh, she's so sweet.
Penguin.
I think we still pay her.
We would.
We know what she means.
We have.
We've got A list coming up next.
Do they belong in the A list, the B list or the C list?
All right.
Gloves off.
There we go.
The Edge is the home of Clint McGend Dan.
Here we go with the A-List if you've never played before.
We put celebrities into the A-List, the B-List or the C-List.
It normally winds people up and we find it very hard to agree, but this is what we do.
And let's not forget the time that Clint tried to choke me out when he lost one time.
So, you know, it's just, it gets physical.
It gets physical.
We're kicking it off with somebody whose name is very popular at the moment due to a very popular song and sing in Nicole Kidman.
I would say if you have a song written about you by one of the biggest pop stars in the world,
it puts you pretty up there.
But Nicole Kidman is our first name.
Okay, this is what she said about that song too.
I can't believe it.
She wrote a song called Nicole Kimman.
I'm like, who is that person?
Yes.
Isn't that cool?
Yeah, but in her video, she did all the films I've done.
Half of them I can't even remember.
So it was really good.
Wow, that's another thing.
God, she can't remember how many films.
She can't even remember how many films she's done.
She is that popular.
She would probably be the most successful.
Australian actress of all time?
No, Margot Robbie.
I will say this.
Where's Margo, actually?
She's not on the A-Lis, is she?
She's B, I think.
Which I think is probably unfair.
Let me have a look at Nicole Kimman's movies.
Obviously, Baby Girl, Eyes Wide Sharp, Practical Magic,
Practical Magic 2, the others,
Moulin Rouge. She was in Batman Forever.
Just go with it.
Do you know what I think also helps if you're a power couple
because she was with Keith Urban?
And I think there's power in the...
David Beckham, Victoria Beckon.
Yeah, so if you say Tom Cruise is one of the biggest A-lis is one of the biggest A-lis and she was with him.
Stefford Wives.
Okay, wait, let's see how many movies she's a.
How many movies?
Yes, I'm going to say her too.
I'm going to say she's a B.
I think there was maybe a time where she graced the A-list in the 90s.
I think she's a bit of a has-be now.
I don't think she's done many movies recently that of note.
Practical Magic 2's in cinemas at the moment.
Never seen it.
Tony, because it just came out.
I haven't seen Practical Magic 1.
She's done 120 movies and she's one.
and she's won numerous major entertainment awards.
Numerous.
Numerous.
She has won Academy Awards,
six Golden Globes and Emmys.
Look, she's a B for me.
I think she's quite famous,
but she's not famous enough to be on the A list.
All right, let's move on to the next name.
Then you have to text us 3-3-4-3.
What about Jason Derulo?
Oh.
I think Jason Durullo is very famous,
but I'd say you'd struggle to get anybody over, like, 75,
that knows who he is.
Do you know the crazy thing is?
his social media footprint is way big than you think.
He's only 44 million followers on Instagram.
There aren't many celebs that are rocking numbers like that.
I mean, TikTok's even crazier.
But, uh...
Okay, three, two, one.
V. He's a B.
He's a B-lister.
I think he's a B-Lister game this morning.
Elon Musk.
USA!
USA!
Jesus for that alone, he's a C-lister.
He's in A all day.
When are you like him or not?
It's not about Lister.
liking the person, unfortunately.
He's the richest man in the world.
I think it's hard for people to not know who that is.
Oh, he by far.
Maybe it was the first person that had trillion dollars.
Oh, yeah, true.
And then supposedly he lost quite a bit of it.
But I'm like, the first person in the world to make a trillion dollars,
I just think the world knows him.
And if you know him, then he's an A-lister.
I don't know.
Didn't he almost influence the election?
Not him Donald Trump get along anymore.
But, like, that was his power.
Well, yeah, he's rich, but is he famous?
Okay, we put it up on Instagram.
Currently, 66% say he's a C-lister.
Yeah, I think that's a bit harsh.
I do think he's not an A-lister, though.
I'd put Elon Musk at a strong B-lister.
I don't think he's up there with your Beyonce's, your Tom Cruise's.
The iconic people of the world.
Let's remember A needs to be icons.
Yeah, I're going to say C with Elon.
His low level of likability is impacting your score
on whether he is world-famous,
which is what the A-list is.
It's the most likable person on the planet.
Online as well, Nicole Kidman,
3 had a 62% for A-Lister.
If you disagree with these, text us, call us,
oh, 8-H-I-H.
I think there's no A-Lister this week.
There's no A-Lister.
You're going to...
I couldn't roll my eyes harder at that end.
Which isn't actually all that effective in radio.
I won't say me.
It's not, Clint, no, but sometimes we make videos.
She had to say that.
The A-E-Lister game, we're going through A-List, B-List or C-List.
The names we're doing this morning are Nicole Kidman.
B for Botox because her face doesn't move.
Daniel, that is outrageous.
And true.
Jason Derulo and Elon Musk.
And I will say, I was saying Nicole Kidman, I think she's an A.
Somebody said it's concerning.
You weren't because you both like both folks.
Concerning that Clint thinks Nicole Kimman is more impressive due to the men she's dated.
No, I'm just saying in a power couple, you are more famous.
Keith Urban is more famous because he was married to Nicole Kimman.
I think when you have two super famous people in a relationship, like JZ and Beyonce,
it's like Keith Urban was lucky to get Nicole Kidman, let's be honest.
He was pudging in terms of fame there.
Oh, so you would say she's an A.
Oh, what, A?
Look, I'm willing to be swayed.
I think she is a very strong B or a weak A.
Angie says, get some fresh ear, Dan.
You've lost it.
Nicole's an A.
Maybe I do need some fresh air.
Let's go to Charlie.
Hi, Charlie.
What are we saying for Nicole?
Definitely an A, Lissa.
Yeah.
Everyone knows her name.
Everyone knows, like, at least the movie she's been in
and, like, shows everything.
Everyone knows Nicole Kidman.
Okay.
Okay.
Jason Derulo.
I'd say B.
I don't know if this is just me, but I'm just like, like, I hear his songs and stuff,
but beyond that, that's like...
Well, you know.
You can vote as well if you're not willing to call through.
You can vote on an Instagram story.
You can text Instagram, you can text Instagram.
You can text Instagram, Instagram, you could text on Instagram.
And you would agree with most people putting Jason Derulo at a B.
Yeah.
What about Elon Musk?
one I'm struggling with the most. Now you've got to
take out, obviously, just before you answer, Charlie.
Yeah. Whether you love or hate him.
Okay? That's the problem. People can't
separate that when we're talking fame.
Yeah. God, I despise the man.
Yes, yeah. I would still put him
like a C, because I think beyond
being a billionaire, that's
all I know him for. Beyond that, like, I don't
know what he really does
so much. Like, I know he owns big companies
and crept, but other than that, you hear him.
And it's just like, oh, okay.
Okay. So, we will talk.
about before, the phenomenal performance
that he put on at Sparkery and I went and he was
amazing. But if he was an A-Lister,
he would put on three shows and he did one.
So it's quite telling and I don't
know why that is for DeRolo. He's got all
the bangers, but... Yeah, I think he's
famous. I just, you'd struggle to get the
older people. Let's quickly go to
Caroline, what a couple more call is. Hi, Caroline.
Let's run through it. Nicole Kidman.
An A-lister.
Great. Jason Durullo.
A B-lister. Okay.
And Elon Musk?
I think you should ask Clint's dad.
Oh, that's John.
And if he knows who he is, he's a mailister.
It's an old game we used to play Caroline.
I love that you've brought it up.
We used to play a little game called Clint's dad, no.
And John knows no one.
No, I mean, he's a hell of a concrete contractor,
but he doesn't know famous people who might have famous.
I think he would know Elon.
All right.
Oh, you've got Dad on.
Yeah, I've got him speed off.
Hi, John.
Gide, Dad.
Hi.
Hi, guys.
Hi, John, we've got a question for you.
Who is Elon Musk?
It's a billionaire and designed Tesla and a lot of high-tech.
You're wrong, John.
He's a trillion to hear.
See you later, mate.
Right, well, that says something.
I was going to say he's probably a trillionaire, yeah.
John does know who he is.
I think he's pretty well one of the richest men in the world, isn't he?
I think he is.
Yeah.
How time our Tesla shares are down there?
Okay, talk about Tesla.
We don't get into shares.
Christine.
How come out
Tesla shoes
the town that
you do are just
always attached to the hip.
Oh my gosh
you guys are funny.
Very quickly
John, who's
Jason Derulo?
No, I couldn't
tell you that one.
Oh no.
That's not good.
That's not good.
How about you,
Tesla shares
gone down out of interest,
Christine?
No more.
Yeah.
Wait for them to come up.
That's why they know
who he is
because their retirement
depends on him.
These your inheritance
clip.
All your Tesla shares
are out there.
It'll go right,
Mom.
It'll come right.
Stay there,
All right. Look, I'm going to have to lock it in. We're wrapping up the break.
Nicole Kidman. Oh, God, not the drum roll. It's too long.
It's a really long drum roll. A. Jason Derulo.
Oh, you want another one for that?
As soon as she...
I thought she'd want one drum roll for all three.
B.
Next drum roll, boom.
And Elon Musk?
Still too long.
B.
Yeah. I think he deserves to be a B.
Yeah, well done.
I still don't know how much the Tesla shares have gone down.
You can get them on Zelle at the moment.
Now's a good time to buy.
Honestly, I think the Randals are keeping Elon Musk afloat.
Clint owns two of them.
They've got shares in the company.
What is it about Elon Muscular?
It's been honest.
God, no wonder you put him in an A list.
Okay, enough.
We've got Jack Tame coming in next.
Get your Clint McGinn, Dan Fax.
The Edge.
This besweighs, 24 past 8, The Edge.
If you're undecided,
who's going to get your vote with the election.
You can check out Oneews.co.com.
And there is a vote compass tool to help you compare your views with party policies.
Or you could listen to the debate and maybe that will help you decide who you're going to vote for.
And our very own Jack team is going to be hosting.
Gilda.
Good to see you.
Do you get really nervous with these things because me and Clint especially hate confrontation.
Oh, so nervous.
Really?
No, so nervous.
So my regular job, I just interview one person at a time, right?
I get pretty nervous for that, especially.
because I'm also not confrontational.
No, here's the key.
If you're not a confrontational, you've got to get a job where you have to be confrontational.
And then you just, you let everything boil up inside you.
So tonight, we're going to have Chris and Chris, Labor and National.
And so having them both there is quite a different experience for me.
So I'm a bit nervous.
It's an interesting election, isn't it?
But this is the one election where I don't know what I'm going to do.
And I'd say there'd be a lot of people out there than this same.
I can have heaps of people.
I don't know what they're going to do.
Because they reckon that if you think about those main parties,
and we look at all the polls, right?
The combined support for the main parties
is at the lowest point ever.
How hard is it to remain impartial
when you're hosting a debate
and you're like, you can't snigger
or exhale quickly through the nose
because it'll start telling which...
And I always feel like when you're on TV as well,
like the smallest little gestures,
people read into them in massive ways, right?
Even little things.
I was thinking, I've got to wear a suit on TV tonight.
And I was like, man, I've got to wear a suit that isn't blue.
Like, can't wear like a red tie?
Yeah, sure.
Because people think that you're trying to like have some like little like mental jiu-jitsu and like, oh, I'm actually supportive.
Jack comes out in a white tuxedo?
Yeah, exactly.
Does it send the shits up you a little bit, Jack?
Because I've been, I watch a lot of your stuff.
I'm a big fan.
And this election especially, it just seems like no one's got anything.
They're all quick to talk about what everyone else is doing wrong.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, one of the interesting things about this election is, again, if the polls are to be believed, then opportunity.
is going to be the first party,
what was currently placed to be the first party
to maybe get past 5% of the vote
and get into Parliament.
And so lots of people have been trying to work out
why are they doing so well in this election
compared to previous elections?
And I reckon this could be part of it
because everyone else is running against something.
And how pivotal is a leader's debate
that's on tonight?
Do you think to people actually making a permanent decision
on which way they'll vote?
I think especially for these,
main leaders at the moment, given they're both really unpopular, it's a really critical moment
in the campaign because if they were to slip even a couple of percentage points in the polls
from where they are now, between now and election day, that could be absolutely dire.
What we're going to do tonight too is we're going to have a whole massive group of undecided voters,
so people who haven't yet decided who they're going to vote for, and we're going to be
asking them how they think it's going and get their thoughts on the performances as well.
So that should give us a good steer.
What is your advice to someone that's, they want to vote?
and they want to have their say on election day.
Vote Compass.
Go to Vote Compass.
Because I think we can all agree.
New Zealand's been a bit like,
uh, lately, right?
And so there are different ideas about how we could get it back
and how we could have a bit more money in our pockets
and all that kind of stuff.
And that comes down to policy.
And the best way to compare the policies
is something like Vote Compass.
You don't have to spend two hours doing it.
You can just do it in 10 minutes.
That'll give you a really good steer
for the kind of party that you are most aligned with you.
I think that's cool too because you might be surprised.
do Vote Compass, all it is is asking
about policies and whether you agree or disagree
and you might be surprised that actually
it's such a good point.
Especially if you, you know, like your dad who's
like, oh, I've voted the same way for 46
years now, da-da-da-da. And then you make him do
Vote Compass and all of a sudden he's like
I'm not a wokester!
I'm not a wokester! Yeah.
Oh, interesting.

Appreciate your time, bro.
Thank you, guys.
Coming up with Clint Megan Dan.
Dan's wife is unofficially awarded New Zealand its greatest biscuit.
I don't know why she's become the biscuit connoisseur of New Zealand,
but I think she's on to something.
And it's not the biscuit that I'd imagine most people would put at number one.
Dan's told us, and I agree with her.
You agree?
Yeah, she's right.
Yeah.
I hate all biscuits, so I feel like I can just step back on the fun.
Okay, well, why don't you go and make yourself a coffee for 10 minutes?
Thanks, sorry, guys.
At last, Clint, we can do the show, just us.
We had this in yesterday and we bumped it, and Dan got so butter.
Who's like, why, we're not doing the biscuits stuff?
He brought it up so much, but is the biscuits up for tomorrow?
So finally, we're doing New Zealand's top biscuit next.
Look at the boss's face.
Clint McGinn Dan?
It's Breakfast.
The Edge.
Clint Megan Dan's.
I can see why people think it's.
Controversial.
Controversial, man.
Speaking of things controversial.
That's controversial.
I don't think it necessarily is controversial,
but my gorgeous wife Hannah and I were talking the other day,
because we both love biscuits.
Can I define something with this?
Because I love a homemade bickie.
I will never turn down, ever a homemade bickie,
but you're talking about supermarket biscuits.
Well, any type of, yeah, biscuits that are readily available,
mass-produced biscuits.
At the supermarket, thank you.
Okay, that's totally different.
And, wait, and is a bickie?
And a cookie different?
Is cookie time?
They're the same.
Cookie time.
I'd count cookie time in this.
Yeah.
So a mass-produced supermarket biscuit we're talking about.
Not a homemade bickie.
And no super-masket biscuit.
No, I think we'll stick to steer of supermasket ones.
Just want to clear that up.
Thank you.
Okay.
So now we've got that across and we've come up with the rules of this very simple game.
My wife said that her favourite biscuit is a scotch finger.
Good honour.
And I, at face value, you go, Jesus Christ.
How boring are you?
It's the most boring biscuit out there.
But really, it's boring, but hell is it versus off.
As long as she's got the one with just the one layer on the back.
You can snap him in half and just, oh, they're so moorish.
Now, this is the thing.
My wife wasn't talking about the chocolate one.
She's talking about the plain jar and the original scotch finger was no chocolate.
Get in the bin.
My husband's favourite biscuit is a chocolate digestive.
Even the name of it, it's weird.
I love.
I love a digestive.
What are you talking about?
A digestive as a biscuit is like, how is it?
even marketed. It's almost like the person
that made them, hates them, and was like
how can I make these not sell
a digestive biscuits? There's something about them that makes them sound healthy.
The fact that they're called a digestive. I'm like eating chocolate
but it's healthy. Your body should be able to digest all biscuits.
Why is it a digestive? I think old people love
him. Maybe it is easier for them
to digest. So, Dan, is text through saying, oh my god
yes, your wife is on to something, Dan. We have them in the office and they're
delicious. I'd agree, a scotch finger.
Don't count it out. That's
all I'm going to say. A lot of people coming through with the love for the chocolate digestive
and his scotch finger.
Producer Brady, you're the youngest on the show at 21. Have you ever heard of a digestive
biscuit? Yeah, when I was little, I used to refuse to eat them because I thought they were
like healthy and they had fruit in them. That's the thing. No, but you can get the fruitless ones.
You can get the fruit ones. That are just lovely chocolate and biscuit.
Okay. Okay, right. I would have assumed as a non-biscuit eater that everybody just thinks
the Tim Tam's the best. Is that incorrect? I think Tim Tam is your classic and I think it's the
obvious choice, but it's because you're forgetting about
brilliant, like the squiggles, for instance.
I used to love the brand biscuit.
Have you guys had a brand one?
They're bloody good.
And it keeps your regular.
It keeps you.
You love that, then.
It's a win-win.
When you used to have those sampler packs,
remember it was in like a rectangle box?
You'd slide them out and have like three or four.
The only one that would go first would be that pink wafer one with the cream.
That was always gone first.
A crispy is a coconut one, isn't it?
Oh, I love a crispy coconut.
Yeah.
Another one that's coming through on the text machine, man.
this is going off.
Kingston.
The Kingston.
A bit of a Kingston.
Now that's the one with,
it's like two sort of
O-T biscuits and then chocolate in the middle.
It's like a sandwich.
Do you know what I don't mind if you're out on the water
and you're real peckish,
smash a bag of farm bakes.
What?
Farm bakes are the most basic B biscuit ever.
No way.
But when you're really hungry.
Farm bakes.
Toffee pops have come up as well.
Super wines.
The only thing they're good for is for crushing them up
and make it a cheesecake.
I'll put a bit of butter on one and put another one.
Better or a malt biscuit.
Yeah.
That's all you need.
No, you're the malt and your digestive.
Go back to the retirement home.
Okay.
I don't even like this segment.
This is where you come through.
Oh, 800 the edge.
Texts through 3334.3.
I mean, there's so many different options coming through.
What is New Zealand's top biscuit?
No, I don't understand.
Kayla, it does, says, needs a voice disguiser.
I don't know why you would need that.
Wait, I can say.
Let me change their voice.
Jesus Christ, why?
Are you so ashamed of your voice?
favorite biscuit, Kayla.
No, she's got to go online too
if she wants to voice disguiser.
Okay, here we go, Kayla.
On voice disguiser.
What is your favorite biscuit?
I'm with Stan when you see
with the margarine and the super wine.
That's elite.
It's super wine.
Super wine.
Super wines.
Thank you for that, Kayla.
That's wonderful.
Do you think she wanted it pushed up or down?
I think she would have preferred it down?
Oh, my bet.
You know what?
No wonder she wanted her voice disguised, though,
Because super wine is a pretty boring biscuit.
Super wine.
Let's be honest.
Still the chocolate scotch finger for me.
What deserves to be at the top?
I'm right at partial to a girl guide.
Clint McAnne.
I can see why people think it's controversial.
Controversial, man.
Speaking of things controversial.
That's...
Controversial.
What is New Zealand's greatest biscuit?
Dan's wife is adamant that is the scotch finger.
I think if she's adding the chocolate layer, then I agree with her.
I mean, it does add a certain amount of perfection to an already perfect biscuit, doesn't it, the chocolate?
Before we start, could we block Danielle Flynn for 24 hours from the text?
What she done.
Mint slice, how good, she says.
Danielle, I love you, but that is cooked.
A mint slice.
I don't eat anything minty and sweet to me.
I think it's like, it's so bizarre.
But again, I'm kind of sitting out and just watching this happen because I don't like any supermarket biscuit.
I want to see you all battle it out.
I'm surprised you don't like biscuits.
Why are you surprised?
What about me makes you surprise that I don't like?
You would be a biscuit lover.
Why?
Because?
Why?
I don't know.
I just thought, you know, of all the things that I...
You've brought in biscuits before.
No, I haven't.
Yes, you have.
You brought in...
Now, don't make me...
Homemade biscuits, yes.
But a supermarket biscuit, never.
Okay.
You just give me Tim Tam energy.
That's all.
Clint, I would say you give me ginger nut energy.
I feel like you'd be a ginger nut energy.
I thought it was Carl.
That's producing Carl.
Or shrewsbury.
No, ginger nuts are disgusting.
They can go on the...
with mint slices.
Mia, come on, man,
Chinchin nuts are great.
Now it's so hard.
And then when you finally do bite through
and they suck.
They're not worth the effort.
Okay, well, if you're sitting this out, Meg,
I'm going to bring in Mia.
Morning, Mia.
Now, Mia, you've brought in
a left field suggestion,
which I think is going to be a popular one.
What is your idea of the best biscuit?
I love a butternut,
the one with the layer of popcorn on top.
I agree with you.
If you've never had a butter nut,
it's almost like an Anzac biscuit
with chocolate on it.
I'd say that's how I'd describe it.
But it's delicious.
I'd agree with you.
So that's definitely a top contender.
Okay, now we've got Dana.
Morning, Dana.
Morning, Dana.
Now, this is obviously a very contentious issue.
What is New Zealand's, in your opinion, top biscuit?
Your scotch fingers, for sure.
Yes, Dana.
Now, are you talking about the classics?
Just like my wife, the one that has no chocolate on it,
or are you talking about the chocolate-covered ones?
Both, but the classic is in my treat box at home.
Treat box
To treat
Since when did
Adding chocolate
To something make anything worse
No
It's always made it better
I don't think it makes it
But I just don't think it needs it
Because it's already a good biscuit
I like a plain girl guide
Versus a chocolate one of that
Is anything
No they started putting chocolate on
Because no one wanted them
Yeah that's true
I mean
There's something about a girl guide
That's got a different taste
To your normal biscuit
I don't know what it is
But it's like a very distinctive taste
Hi GC
Hey Jesse, what biscuit are you bringing forward for the best in the country?
Mellow puff.
Mallow puffs.
Did you crack them on your head and then you peel up a chocolate?
How do you eat yours out of interest, Jesse?
You were a head cracker?
Cracket?
No.
I feel like, did they used to?
Did they used to be bigger or we were just smaller?
I feel like they're tiny now.
They used to be huge.
Is it like when you go to your primary school, you go, did they shrink the rugby field?
Yeah, exactly.
I don't know.
Yeah, no, that's a good option.
A mellow puff is in there too, thanks, do you see?
Cookie Time, you said it was included.
It hasn't even come up, and it's got to be one of the greatest cookies there are.
That would be my only type that I think I like.
Cookie Time Cookie is, to me, it's just obviously superior.
I mean, that's not.
It's not your classic packet of biscuits, though.
You know, like you don't go into a packet of cookie times.
You can, but...
You get eight of them.
Yeah, eight massive money.
You have to remorgage the house to buy them, though.
What do they put in them?
It's so yummy.
Okay, here's what I think we do.
Over the next few days, we do some sort of knockout.
like round robin situation of the best biscuits.
And then by the end of the week, Meg,
we come up with New Zealand's best biscuit
and they send us the company that wins
a whole load of biscuits
and we give them out.
You give out what half?
We'll keep a big share of that.
Now it sounds like you're the girl guide going around
delivering biscuits.
Because we don't want them to go off because no one likes a hoggy biscuit.
Okay, so we want them to get to a point where they're fresh.
Have we just done this whole bit for that?
So you could do that one little gag.
Oh, Kim's come in with hundreds and thousands.
Kim, there you go.
Smokescreen your own.
Coming up on the edge breakfast.
All right, I always have the worst luck with what.
If you want to finish that sentence for us.
Mick's got a couple of things, I think.
But one in particular that's happened to you yet again
that proves your luck is just terrible in this space.
You have the worst luck with what?
For Dan, it's neighbors.
Everywhere he goes, he seems to have a terrible neighbor.
I go over.
Obviously, most people are just terrible neighbors now.
That's what we're just getting to the point.
All right, if you'd like finish that sentence for us
And weigh in, oh, 800, the Edge, or 3-3-4-3.
I always have the worst luck with what?
Listen live weekdays from Sex on Rover
and Catch up wherever.
This is Clint, Meg and Dan.
The Edge.
When Brittany wrote this song, she wasn't singing about our Meg.
No, I feel genuinely, you guys know this,
I feel like truly the luckiest person on planet Earth.
And I mean that, and that is,
you can put me under a lie to teat-a-tete-to-tis.
With the husband I have, with the kids I have,
my family, my friends, my job, working with you too.
I feel incredibly lucky.
She hit the jackpot with us, hey, Clint?
I did. I did. We joke, but I did.
And so I think it's only feared that I have some things that are unlucky, I guess.
It's just counteracting all the other stuff.
The universe has to even things out.
It does. And yeah, we discovered this the other day.
Kristen thinks she knows what it is.
What do you think Meg has the worst luck with, Kristen?
What is that? What do you think she has the worst luck with?
I think Kristen has the worst luck with.
luck with weekends. Oh sorry you called about what you've had the worst luck with. Sorry, Kristen.
Yes, yes, the worst luck with bloody Clint.
Yeah, amen, sister. We all like that. Oh, sorry, Karen said Meg has no luck when it comes to the
winning wheel. Yes, no, we know that one. Yeah, that's true. What's your thing, Kristen? What do you
have the worst luck with? So every single weekend since I was 13, I have fallen sick with the flu,
with a cold cough, stomach bugs, something like that. I have always been sick during the weekend.
Is it, but I would then go, Kristen, it's something you're doing.
On a Friday.
Like something on a Friday?
Are you passing weird dudes at a bar or something?
Are you licking like the crossing button or something?
You know?
No, well, I'd like to hope not.
I am a nurse, so it's probably all the other people make me make that.
All those scumbags are coming.
All right, well, no, it wasn't that.
It wasn't the winning wheel.
It wasn't the Meg gets sick on holiday.
It was actually this.
We got the things we needed.
We came back to the van that was in the car park.
We'd gone straight from Bundy's to IKEA, and it had a screw on the tire and a flat tire.
So we're driving home on the spare, and he said, you know what?
We've had really bad luck with rentals, and we went through it.
We've had one we went to Australia, and as soon as we pulled out of the parking lot onto the motorway,
a truck went by and flicked up a rock straight into the wind screen and it cracked.
Another time we'd gone on a trip to Topor, and my husband, that was his fault, to be fair,
didn't see a pole and backed into it.
And we figured out white Toyota's every time.
We are now banned from them.
Now, can I ask a question?
Go on.
You're saying that you've got bad luck with rental cars.
Uh-huh.
Was Guy driving every time?
Yes.
Your husband.
I would argue he's just a crap driver.
Right.
Well, he hasn't had any bad luck with our car, you know.
He didn't smash the screen in it the other day, didn't he?
Oh, yeah, he did do that.
Hold a second.
Yeah.
Yeah, the internal radio screen.
So he was putting something in the back with the seats down,
pushed it all the way through.
smash the entertainment system, which is actually worth more than the car to replace.
Now, you say that you hit the jackpot with your husband.
I reckon you need to leave him.
And then you have better luck with car rentals.
I would be stuffed without my man.
Absolutely.
Dan has the worst luck with neighbours.
He had terrible neighbours where he used to live, and then he moves.
And wouldn't you know it?
Bad neighbours again.
Yeah, there's another neighbour that keeps making noise every night.
Have you got some of the sounds that he makes?
Like, there was, like, a few months ago, he was making like this grunting noise at like 6pm in the after.
noon in his backyard. Like he was lifting something and then they've got a like generated that
they were using it at all hours of the morning. They're nightmares. Okay. And then you've got the
lovely old man who gives you his fruit and vegetables. Yeah, all this deformed fruit that he grows
in his backyard. Like he brought a carrot to me the other day. It had three different heads. No one's
that's extra carrot. No, it's not. It's a deformed carrot. It'll give me cancer.
It'll give you cancer. If I had three months got cancer, I'll go, was that bloody carrot.
It was the modified stuff that you get that would most likely have cancer. That looks perfect.
We found the grunty manglom.
Is it this?
So it's 10.32 p.m. on Saturday night.
Mowed the lawns earlier today.
That's when I'm at war with the neighbour.
So I'm just going to tip my grass clippings on the section behind their house.
I can't.
That's not it.
Is that you being a terrible number?
The advocate comes across like, I'm a bad person.
His dog was shitting on my front lawn.
Yeah, but is that the same neighbor that you weed in his litter box?
Similar guy.
Yeah, similar guy.
He's the other guy.
Fast fit up.
What do you mean?
Yeah, worse like my neighbors they.
Yeah, terrible.
All right, we'll get into your throwback threesome coming up next.
Could we stop saying that I peed in his letterbox?
Because I did do it, but the statute of limitations is not over yet.
Okay, got, got to go.
