The Edge Breakfast with Clint, Meg and Dan: all the best bits every week, with podcast-exclusive content and some extra fun stuff when it comes up.

Dan completely hotboxed himself in his own car over the weekend after hitting a very spicy medium butter chicken. Plus, Meg is being incredibly cagey about our final merch prize pack. 00:00 – Meg plays dumb about the final merch prize pack items. 02:08 – The crew unpacks their slightly awkward mystery promo boxes from Hayu. 03:52 – Six lines to absolutely ruin someone's day. 05:43 – Hotboxing the in-laws: Dan’s spicy curry leads to an incredibly smelly rescue mission.

Clint, Meg and Dan chat about upcoming short work weeks and teacher-only days, then Clint vents about an expensive, erratic $77 taxi ride after Auckland FC’s A-League win. Meg and Dan share a zoo trip where their kids become instant “besties.” The show plays a football-themed “More or Less” quiz, runs scandal headlines (Love on the Spectrum’s Abby and Stephen Colbert), and launches a $5,000 “level up your man” glow-up promo. Meg confesses accidentally stealing mango chutney, prompting listener stories of accidental theft. They give cash in “Take the Edge Off My Life,” discuss a Pornhub Premium data leak with MAFS’s Duncan and cyber safety tips, cover Spotify’s proposed “super fan” ticket access, try cracking the Neutrogena vault, and reveal Dan’s 15-year-old “Hook” monologue musical they plan to stage.

We are completely spiralling after today's show, and honestly, you are not ready for where this conversation went. What started as a casual chat about the Disney movie Cars somehow devolved into Dan's naked escapades on a Portuguese nude beach and Clint's apparently "pendulum-like" situation. Yes, Meg actually brought our children's lives into it to prove a point about Clint's anatomy, and now we can never look at him the same way again. Plus, we are officially nominated for a Radio Award, but Dan might have completely ruined our chances of winning before we even step foot on the red carpet. We even rehearsed our acceptance speech, and let’s just say it gets incredibly messy fast. Grab your headphones, because this one is pure, unadulterated chaos from start to finish.

Clint, Meg and Dan celebrate The Edge rating #1 in Christchurch, and take a hilarious first call from Dave the truckie, who claims he can suck air into his bum and fart it back out maybe even inflate a balloon. They discuss Jeff Bezos’ tax comments, run New Music Friday, and give away $200 petrol to a Hamilton listener. New producer Brady debuts Producer Diaries, Ollie Sail previews Auckland FC’s grand final, and Dan’s final diary entry is read. The team tease a big mystery find from Dan’s mum’s attic for Monday, help a listener win Westlife tickets for her mum with stage three breast cancer, and award a $500 Woolworths voucher for an awkward “meditation” mix-up. Hit the spot will be up exclusively on rova, we are getting hit with some crazy copyright at the moment so you will be able to find it there. 00:00 Show Cold Open 00:08 MJ Costume Prep 02:18 Christchurch Ratings Win 04:47 First Call Dave 06:20 Wind Pluck Talent 09:39 Scandal Headlines 10:10 Bezos Tax Debate 11:49 New Music Friday 17:02 Take The Edge Off 17:46 Hamilton Cash Drop 21:01 Brady Producer Diary 26:44 Neutrogena Vault Game 28:07 Pin Code Guess Fails 28:44 Secret Words Setup 29:40 Ollie Sail Interview 33:11 Reveal The Word Game 34:28 Final Dans Diary Entry 37:46 Mystery Attic Find Tease 41:04 Clues For Monday Reveal 43:48 Take The Edge Call 47:36 Good Story Boost 52:19 Christchurch Ratings Win 54:05 Christchurch Song Replay 57:44 Wrap Up And Plugs

We completely lost our minds this morning over a wild hypothetical game called 'The Memory Trade'. Imagine being offered the chance to instantly become world-class at absolutely any skill you want—but the catch is you have to completely erase one whole year of your past memories. Wait until you hear the year Dan chose to throw away and the shockingly accurate secret talent Clinton wants in return. Hit play and join the group chat before it’s too late! 00:00 – The team breaks the search engines looking for a very niche adult podcast. 00:46 – A pitch to get Julie, Philippa, and Christine to host a mums-only breakfast show. 01:14 – Why there are no all-female radio shows and the secret behind successful podcasts. 01:51 – Meg introduces 'The Memory Trade' and Dan immediately stops listening. 02:44 – Dan chooses which year of his life he wants to completely erase. 03:22 – Dan reveals his ultimate driving skill fantasy (featuring Lightning McQueen). 04:12 – Clint breaks down his ultimate bedroom skill trade-off. 04:54 – Dan outlines his highly illegal, chaotic plan to join a Formula 1 team. 05:54 – Clint shows off his celebrity impression skills until Meg walks out.

Clint, Meg and Dan tease an embargoed tour announcement, chat a stacked NZ concert calendar, and Clint reveals a new Japan-inspired tattoo. In “More or Less,” they compare Spotify streams for solo artists versus their former bands (including Beyoncé/Destiny’s Child and Harry Styles/One Direction). Scandal headlines cover Stephen Colbert and Steve Carell praising Harry Styles, plus Niall Horan on the 1D group chat. Listeners win giveaways, discuss holiday-ruining mishaps, and try cracking the Neutrogena vault. The big reveal: Post Malone returns to New Zealand (21 Oct). The episode also features Dan’s Diary, tattoo regret calls, and a debate about nurses being the biggest partiers. 00:00 Morning Show Kickoff 01:34 Clints New Tattoo Story 02:24 Japan Trip Inspiration 04:17 More or Less Streams 07:31 Scandal Headlines 10:13 First Caller Nikki 13:05 Enhanced Games Madness 17:47 Overthinkers Podcast Plug 20:38 Take The Edge Off Call 22:52 Holiday Ruined Stories 34:20 Off Campus hype 38:08 In Laws watch fails 38:47 Scandal headlines 27:01 Neutrogena vault guess 43:13 Wedding surname games 49:58 Post Malone announced 52:21 Take The Edge Off win 54:04 Hit the spot tease 55:37 Dans Diary chaos 59:37 Tattoo regret hotline 01:03:41 Nurses party stereotype 01:10:05 Enhanced Games tease

We went from zero to one hundred way too fast today. It all started with a simple country elimination and somehow devolved into whether Dan got drooled on by a tiger at the Auckland Zoo—or if it was something way worse. You are absolutely not ready for the rabbit hole we fell down trying to figure out if you can tell the difference between tiger spit and tiger jiz. To settle a separate argument about what a "chuff" actually is, we even ended up asking a medical expert a very questionable question. Plus, we put ourselves through a hypothetical lie detector test to find out if we're actually cool. 00:00 - Whipping out France from the country jar. 00:30 - The surprisingly real history of French kissing. 01:13 - Dan gets dribbled on by a tiger at the Auckland Zoo. 01:34 - The great tiger jiz vs. tiger saliva debate. 02:27 - What on earth is a chuff? (Spoiler: It has a lot of definitions). 03:10 - Can you get pregnant from anal sex? We ask a medical expert. 04:00 - The lie detector test: Are we actually cool? 05:15 - Meg's drumming skills and embarrassing BP moments. 06:12 - Why does Dan bounce when he walks and does Meg waddle?

On the Clint, Meg, and Dan Podcast, the team kicks off with talk of a 90s band quitting after 30 years, Clint’s tattoo update and marriage negotiations, and a “more or less” game comparing celebrity net worths. Scandal includes Phineas on writing for Billie Eilish and Paul Rudd’s teenage arrest story. They award “Take the Edge Off My Life” cash to help fund a daughter’s Waka Ama worlds trip, but another caller misses out by not answering. A viral bridesmaid who split her dress leads to a debate about whether physiotherapists can do the worm. They share bizarre ways people caught partners cheating, read Dan’s diary about selling found magazines, hear high school hustles, and finish with “Cart Busters” judging listeners’ online shopping carts. 01:10 Tattoo Marriage Drama 03:21 More Or Less Net Worths 07:26 Scandal Headlines 09:05 First Call Bex Update 13:08 Naughty 640 16:31 Take The Edge Off 19:14 Physios And The Worm 27:37 Neutrogena Vault Guess 28:55 Prize Numbers Update 29:36 Cheaters Busted 33:18 Listener Cheater Stories 38:15 Take The Edge Call Fail 40:30 Dans Diary Bin Hustle 43:40 High School Hustlers 50:06 Cart Busters

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Tuesday with banter about holidays and tech-challenged parents, including a caller whose mum brought an Apple Watch with the screen hanging off. They play More or Less on extreme city temperatures, share scandal about AI writing and a young actress leaving the HBO Harry Potter series after season one, and discuss a reported leak of Pornhub Premium user data. The team fails to reach a Take the Edge Off My Life winner, then swap stories about broken items “hanging by a thread” and the habit of filling online carts without buying. They try cracking the Neutrogena vault code, talk early job quitters, read Dan’s teen diary, interview viral bridesmaid Georgie Bell about her dress ripping during a worm, and debate A-lister list rankings for Brendan Fraser, Dave Grohl and Snoop Dogg. 00:00 Cold Open and Welcome 02:00 Zoo Animal Naming Update 03:51 Wiggles Tickets and Mum Math 06:53 Boomers vs Tech Callers 10:01 More or Less Weather Quiz 16:28 Naughty 640 20:27 Love on the Spectrum Talent 24:01 Take the Edge Off Calls 27:52 Hanging On By a Thread Hacks 35:38 Play Shopping Confessions 36:24 Abandoned Cart Confessions 37:59 Caller Cart Addiction 39:52 Discount Code Hack 40:38 Neutrogena Vault Challenge 42:51 Ginny Weasley Quits 46:53 Early Quitter Stories 52:03 Dan's Diary Readout 56:00 Viral Wedding Worm 01:06:09 A Lister Rankings

Meg kicks things off with an absolute health anxiety crisis after her doctor dropped a casual "can't rule it out" bomb about a bump on her nose. Then things get totally unhinged as Dan reveals his wife has him insured for a casual $900k—making us genuinely concerned she’s going to push him down the stairs—and Clint literally loses his entire house to Meg over a basic geography debate. You’re not ready for this level of chaos, mate.
