The Edge Breakfast

We’re spiraling today, and honestly, it’s mostly Dan’s fault. He managed to offend everyone by admitting he’d actually be flattered to have a stalker, which went down about as well as you’d expect with Meg. We also try to figure out how to survive in a cage and why Clint thinks shoving books up his backside is a legitimate way to gain knowledge.

Things get even more intense when we have to decide who’s in charge of our new society on Mars. Between "Executive Reproducers" and Dan's immediate plan to take his clothes off in the Martian atmosphere, it’s a miracle any of us are still talking to each other. You’re not ready for the "Butt Book Bandit."

00:45 – Eliminating Norway: We check in on our international listeners.
02:50 – Obsessive Love vs. Hate: Dan’s controversial "flattered by a stalker" take.
03:40 – Meg’s Stalker Story: Why Edge TV was the biggest hit in NZ prisons.
06:20 – The Poop vs. Dishwasher Debate: Clint defends his bidet lifestyle.
08:15 – Cage Logistics: Why horizontal bars are superior for activities.
09:40 – The Knowledge Ring: Clint’s very "hands-on" approach to reading books.
12:15 – The Mars Mission: Assigning roles for the end of the world.
15:30 – President Bella: Testing our leader’s basic space knowledge.

Clint, Meg and Dan chat about daylight savings, running breaks, and music throwbacks, then open listener mail containing lolly cake and a “special brownie,” debating if it’s laced before Dan tastes it. They play Last Joke Standing, EZ Money with callers Tony and Raye, and discuss awful teacher stories from listeners. Flex Factor stalls when Monique, who claimed she can detect missing puzzle pieces by weight, ghosts the show; Meg guesses wrong on a test puzzle. They share good-news headlines, take calls about movies people “did it” to, recap a packed Linkin Park concert at Spark Arena, roast Clint’s gifted bidet Instagram post, and put a listener in the draw for a Harry Styles flyaway.

We are spiralling over the "Longest Drink in Town" and honestly, my brain hurts. Jeremy’s dad designed the iconic Kiwi giraffe cup, but he hasn't seen a cent from the 120 million cups sold. Is the cup tall? Is the drink long? We also dive into the "Honest Day" hypothetical where no one can lie for 24 hours, and let's just say Dan’s answers about his love life got real awkward, real fast.

Wait until you hear our heated debate on the moon landing—Meg is convinced it’s the biggest lie in history. Between killer whales being dolphins and the invention of the internet, we are overthinking absolutely everything today. You are not ready for the chaos!

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Wednesday reacting to rising mince prices and chatting vegetarian alternatives, then bring in Cork listener Liam for St. Patrick’s Day-themed “More or Less” beer trivia. They debate a workplace mentoring program, test Dan’s blunt mentoring style with callers, and play Easy Money for $10,000 with two attempts that fall short. The team argues over a controversial Top 5 list of famous Michaels, shares “lame claim to fame” celebrity moments, and revives Flex Factor with odd talents like burping the alphabet and predicting missing puzzle pieces. They also feature dating advice from Erica and talk late-life ADHD diagnoses and new research on ADHD brain activity.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off St. Patrick’s Day with Irish throwbacks and chat, then dive into teeth-whitening mishaps, first calls, and a game comparing Oscar nominations. They follow up on Katrina finally ending a long-distance relationship, attempt EZ Money for $10k, and discuss Ed Sheeran’s unusual will plans. Comedian Ursula Carlson joins to plug her “Fatty on a Yacht” tour, while Nicola Willis explains rising fuel prices and the government’s fuel-stock plan. Producer Neps hits a Ponsonby Z to run a “stop on exactly $10” pump challenge, and the team debates celebrity A/B/C-listers—plus Dan’s car-noise “talent” that gives everyone the ick.

Clint, Meg and Dan return on a Monday, celebrating Liam Lawson’s seventh-place China Grand Prix finish and debating F1 results. They preview show giveaways including EZ Money and their Swedish correspondent Sven covering the Oscars. Meg recaps an A&P show where her chutney, plum sauce, cookies, relish and art entries fail to place, including a disqualification. The team plays a “more or less” teeth quiz and discusses a study linking phone use on the toilet to hemorrhoids. They interview @karlydriftwood, a viral Nashville strip-club door girl, then open the floor on big-boob problems after Clint’s wife buys “minimizer” bras. A caller’s long-distance breakup stalls due to being ghosted, and listeners share “try hard” stories. Clint realizes many duty-free boomerangs are ornamental when his won’t return.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off a spooky Friday the 13th with Warriors hype, throwback tracks, and a debate over monster-themed songs before spinning Rihanna’s “Disturbia.” They plug the Harry Styles flyaway standby list, chat Meg’s A&P-style baking entries, and take calls including cabin-crew realities and dating app updates. New Music Friday features Luke Combs, The Wiggles, Pussycat Dolls, and Live Lounge covers from Zara Larsson and Harry Styles. Dan’s “prayers” become a running gag after Meg’s missing cat Plum returns, leading to on-air requests for healing, Warriors tips, and giveaway luck. EZ Money returns, “Hit the Spot” attempts Tenacious D’s “Tribute” but narrowly misses, small-town news hits Hokitika’s food festival, and callers share breakup reversals and pets missing for years before coming home.
