The Edge Breakfast

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.

We’re spiralling.  Dan’s old diary entries have resurfaced, and it turns out he was a massive hater about Nick’s girlfriend back in the day—calling her a "skank" and a "sloth" after only 24 hours! Plus, we try to settle the ultimate group chat debate: have we had more pints or more tugs in our lifetime? The math gets dusty, the HR department is worried about our cereal lockers, and Dan tries to eat a dry Weet-Bix live on air. It’s chaos, it’s petty, and Dan’s libido is officially a topic of national concern.

Clint, Meg and Dan open the show talking about freezing temperatures around New Zealand before discussing Zara Larsson teasing a major “Girls Trip” collaboration. They chat with listener Nicole about her pets’ great names and Dan’s legally misspelled middle name “Keune,” then play “More or Less” comparing IMDb movie ratings. Dan shares an awkward undercarriage issue, and the crew spin their Fuellette wheel: Uber driver Gagan misses $5,000, but Edward—dad of seven—wins $5,000 and declines the risky spin, only to learn a test spin would’ve landed on $50,000. They riff on luck, unique (often unfortunate) names, birth-plan disasters, first-kiss stories inspired by Love on the Spectrum, and end with a Foo Fighters-era entry from Dan’s diary.

We are spiraling today and honestly, I’m not sure we’ll ever recover. From Meg’s absolute horror at a "baby voice" cuddle request to Dan’s legendary lack of rhythm, we’re unpacking the most unhinged things ever said in the heat of the moment. You aren't ready for the "ancestors" comment—it’s peak chaos!

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off The Edge Breakfast joking about who could be New Zealander of the Year, then celebrate big “Fuellette” wins as Jackie takes $5,000 of fuel and refuses to risk it for $50,000, while Stacey narrowly misses at eight. The show chats music throwbacks, celebrity gossip, and plays a heights guessing game. They cover a Lego theft scam involving pasta-filled boxes, swap stories about inorganic rubbish finds and dump treasures, and take breakup confessions where the real reason was hidden. Megan shares an old hotel complaint note and listeners add motel horror stories, before Dan’s diary reveals his wild school speech ideas and more school trip disasters.

We let Dan step into the simulation tank to create his absolute perfect life, and let’s just say things went off the rails fast. Between his new name "Taint Tilman," a very specific age-defying pact, and a band name that had the censors sweating, it’s a total chaotic spiral. You are not ready for where this dream life ends up—especially the "snake vs. cockroach" tattoo.

• 0:00 – Meg’s accidental F-bomb and the $50k fuel wheel chaos.

• 1:45 – Entering the tank: Dan’s rules for his simulated reality.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off with a chat about life expectancy, then debate throwback music before playing Michael Jackson and promoting the upcoming biopic “Michael.” They give away movie tickets, discuss slow biopics, and share a coffee catch-up about cheap library book buys, clutter, and too many display pillows. Small Town News confirms Paeroa’s iconic L&P bottle has changed to a more recyclable clear design. The Fuel Wheel finally lands on Mazda, winning Kristelle $5,000 in fuel; she declines the risky re-spin for $50,000, while an 8am spin narrowly misses. The show covers Coachella costs and profits, reads a grumpy Dan’s Diary entry about a Rangitoto trip, shares listeners’ worst school trips, plays the A-list game, and pitches a “long-distance best friend island” trip concept.

We’re spiralling today as we weigh up the ultimate choice: would you ditch your mediocre reality to live in a "Think Tank" simulation of your perfect life? Dan’s already sold, but it might be because he’s still reeling from the time he accidentally lied to a 15-year-old on GTA. Plus, Meg gets weirdly specific about her dream body—and her husband's—while Clint prepares to take over the Premier League as "Jackson Pump." You’re not ready for where this one ends up.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Monday with 50K Fuellette, giving callers $100 fuel and spinning the wheel for a shot at $5,000 and potentially $50,000, with near-misses landing close to Mitsubishi and then on Tesla. They choose Avicii’s “Wake Me Up” for the 6AM throwback, discuss libraries, markets, and Bay of Plenty overtaking Auckland in per-capita cocaine use. Dan’s Diary reveals teenage antics involving fireworks and “mince envelope.” Meg vents about Guy delaying windscreen wipers and shares a list of pet peeves, while listeners add theirs. The show checks Coachella highlights, crosses to Swedish reporter Sven for a tense Justin Bieber encounter, and revisits Meg’s viral reflections on long-distance friendships and missed milestones before launching “Rumor Has It” investigations.

We’re spiralling today, mostly because Clint might actually have a problem. Between his questionable "creative" brain and a nose hair situation that involves hot blue wax and a lot of screaming, things got weird fast. We also dive deep into the bedroom habits of New Zealand, and let’s just say, some of us are bringing the national average way up. You aren't ready for the photo Clint thought was a "booby pic"—it’s equal parts hilarious and haunting.
