The team plugs the Kindness Collective PJ Project, jokes about National Pajama Day, and tries ChatGPT palm readings.

I honestly don't know where Meg gets these scenarios from, but this one absolutely sent us into a spiral. We started talking about what would happen if we swapped partners for a night and—surprise, surprise—Dan managed to make it deeply uncomfortable by catching actual feelings.

It’s a bit of a chaotic one today because we’re currently piling into the car to head to Dan’s mum’s house. We’re on a mission to find his old school diaries in the attic, but mostly we’re just hoping to find something embarrassing enough to fuel the pod until Friday. You’re not ready for the level of overthinking happening right now.

Guests include Laura McGoldrick on reviving Game of Two Halves and Paul Williams on his new TVNZ comedy series New Zealand Spy. The crew tease Friday’s “every caller wins fuel,” plan an attic search for more Dan’s Diary entries, unpack awkward engagement stories, and debate couples tracking each other’s locations.

We’re having a bit of an existential crisis today after some massive bombshells dropped!  Dan’s been digging through his old high school diaries and it is honestly tragic—we're talking "pizza for dinner" immediately after a failed workout. But things get real messy when Dan reveals he knows a massive secret about a friend's partner being on Tinder. Do we tell her and cause absolute chaos, or just mind our own business? Plus, we unpack some of the wildest local side-hustles that are definitely giving "scam" energy. You are not ready for how much we spiral in this one!

Clint is away so Cal joins Meg and Dan on Edge Breakfast, where they joke about Clint’s birthday and preview topics like New Zealand’s poor savings rate and Celebrity Treasure Island. They celebrate Dan’s new bleached-blonde hair, play “More or Less” comparing Spotify monthly listeners of blonded celebs, and take calls about engagement and wedding plans, including Geneva deciding to elope in NZ then hold an overseas ceremony. Cal admits to being pulled over for speeding in a school zone and driving with an expired license, and they announce a Friday giveaway where every on-air caller wins $100 fuel. The team plays UK Who Wants to Be a Millionaire questions, discuss phone addiction and screen time, share a Dan’s Diary entry, talk Harry Styles and Zoë Kravitz’s engagement, and interview Celebrity Treasure Island’s Ben Barrington.

We’re getting way too personal today! From Dan being told he needs a sex coach (rude) to Meg’s accidental "diagnosis" on a Lord of the Rings tour, we are truly a bunch of misfits. Clint’s got a winking problem that’s getting him in trouble with the boss, and Dan’s 15-year-old self is back with a dramatic dinosaur poem that is scientifically... questionable.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Friday on The Edge with Anzac Weekend banter, a 6am throwback (Avril Lavigne), and a long-weekend “more or less” game comparing public holidays worldwide. They run the Fuellette, recap Edward’s $5,000 win and near-miss $50,000, then miss out on another $5,000 with Ruby and Laura as Dan’s spins fall short. The team tests Clint’s “luck” with a scripted call to his wife Jamie, shares celebrity and music updates, and opens calls about long engagements and “wedding waiting room” delays. Later, listeners share out-of-hospital birth stories, they chat Celebrity Treasure Island conditions with Harrison, and interview All Blacks legend Jeff Wilson about Christchurch’s new stadium and Sky Sport’s free pass.
