The Edge Breakfast

This week on The Overthinkers, the crew dives down a rabbit hole of backhanded doppelgänger compliments, extreme listener catch-ups, and the bizarre history of medieval nicknames. Meg breaks down why "Richard" turned into "Dick" and "William" became "Bill," while Dan and Meg trade wild stories about public confrontations, drinks being thrown in faces, and the one time a single punch laid out a high school enemy. Plus, Producer Carl gets tasked with a high-stakes guest quest!

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Friday with Warriors hype, superstitions and a jinx “bunker” plan, plus psychic medium John Edward on whether luck is real. Dan gets spotted at the gym thanks to his toe-walking, the team settles the toilet seat argument, and Scandal covers Dolly Parton’s posthumous message, Millie Bobby Brown’s second adoption, and Travis Kelce correcting his nieces about “Aunt Tay.” They vent in Things We Hate, play Easy Money, plug Electric Ave’s lineup and next week’s “every caller wins” tickets, share a producer’s diary recap, and Meg dominates a Muffin Break “Muff Off” for International Muffin Day.

Dan’s Overthinkers challenge reveals who can remove underwear fastest, while Easy Money returns with letters K and Z. They announce Electric Avenue 2027’s huge lineup including Calvin Harris and Kings of Leon. A listener shares an $850,000 first-division Lotto win after nearly binning the ticket. The team calls for a surrogate for Jamie’s family journey, celebrates “love flex” shoutouts, and recruits New Zealand’s unluckiest 13 to bunker down so the Warriors can win.

Things go sideways fast after calling their regular psychic medium, Linda, to give her a heads-up about celebrity psychic John Edward, only to catch her mid-dump while she somehow still manages to predict an upcoming trip to Africa. The studio then devolves into a taste test of the new Mountain Dew Blue Rasp Blitz to test high school penis-shrinking myths, before an off-air game debate turns into an unexpected investigation into which team member can actually queef on demand.

The crew dives headfirst into a list of seemingly simple, highly defensible life debates that reveal way too much about everyone’s personal habits. What starts as a quick discussion on pantry etiquette quickly devolves into an impromptu physical challenge, unearthing secret bank accounts, unexpected hygiene upgrades, and terrible hosting habits along the way.

Clint, Meg, and Dan kick off early with banter about charity, then debate “cool” vs “uncool” emojis after a thumbs-up is called insulting by a caller. Scandal headlines cover Tom Cruise’s confusing interview, Ed Sheeran’s statement about dropping Macklemore after a Free Palestine speech, and a tight Bird of the Year race. They unpack Lotto’s new, harder Powerball odds and what’s more likely than winning. The team shares “rich” signs, Emmy highlights, and plays Easy Money. They assemble an “unlucky” Warriors jinx squad for a bunker at Archie Brothers, revisit their Blue September prostate-check country song, talk unique streaks, spotlight a “love flexing” ad, and interview Jared Young on his chair-breaking weight-loss streak.

On this episode of The Overthinkers, the team spiral down an AI search rabbit hole to find out who the internet thinks is the biggest A-lister on the show. The results get wild fast as the algorithms award Clint Hollywood-style status, credit Dan with viral internet fame, and somehow assign Meg a full beard, a love for fixing motorbikes, and the odour of fish bait.

Plus, they break down what they'd do if they found $10,000 in cash, address some very flattering (and unexpected) listener feedback, and reveal their most embarrassing moments of forgetting people's names.

Clint, Meg and Dan debate the “most feminine” tattoo spot, share Clint’s massage and surprise glute treatment, and cover scandals involving backlash to a nude Sydney Sweeney betting ad plus Macklemore saying Ed Sheeran dropped him from a tour over “Free Palestine.” They play “Nude or Not,” with Dan revealing he’s naked in Studio B, then give away $1,000 on Easy Money and discuss A-List rankings for William Shakespeare, Lionel Messi and Jessica Alba. The crew recruits “jinxes” into a Warriors bunker at Archie Brothers to avoid ruining the playoff, chats to matchmaker Jeannie from Shortlist, explores Meg’s luteal phase rage, interviews Mina about finding her biological sister via DNA, debates a HYROX winner who soiled herself, and ends with tiny “ick” moments.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Monday with stories from MKTO and a chaotic fairy-and-pirate festival, then argue over whether it’s “unorthodox” for a guy to ride passenger while his partner drives. Scandal covers Celine Dion’s first live performance in six years, Saint West’s “that’s light” flex, Chris Rock wanting another Madagascar, and Benny Blanco’s “marathon” claim. They prank-talk “permission” ordering at restaurants, crown Flats Idol winners for RnV tickets, react to Auckland’s CRL opening fire delay, share party-ruining moments, and read a DM from a couple seeking a surrogate. Plus: celebrity lookalikes, Warriors jinx bunker talk, Easy Money, and wild coincidence calls.

The Overthinkers gang is back to break down the latest mailbag drama, including a very bold message from a listener named Tyler that sets off a debate about whether calling someone else's wife a 10/10 is considered cheating. Meg opens up about her monthly "luteal phase" rages (and why Guy is living on the edge), Clint admits to getting his garage door fixed via AI, and the crew reads the terrifyingly accurate final pages of their hypothetical AI-written biographies. Plus, Dan risks it all with his controversial standards for crèche bake sale cookies.

Catch up on the wildest, funniest, and most unhinged moments of the week with Clint, Meg, and Dan! From pregnancy pranks and hilarious "out-of-context" slip-ups to stomach-turning tales of the worst things ever found in coffee cups, this week's highlights are packed with non-stop banter. 

Clint and Meg catch Meg doing the absolute furthest thing from radio prep during the ad breaks, drooling over an insanely expensive, hyper-specific piece of cast iron cookware. This leads the crew down a rabbit hole of their most bougie possessions and what they would grab first if their houses were burning down to avoid ultimate post-fire embarrassment. Plus, Dan gets caught in a massive lie about an "exotic" item sitting in his bedside table, a listener asks for dating app advice regarding flatpack garden furniture, and producer Carl’s daughter Goldie gives her blunt review of the show.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off with a message from security guard Richie and a debate about Batman’s undies, then Meg vents about a neighbour who keeps dropping off deformed produce and half-eaten food. They “settle” whether adults should make their beds, share Scandal updates on Jennifer Lawrence’s first Instagram Reel and a Spice Girls singles collection, and crown the final Flat Idol finalist as voting opens for R&V tickets. The team also plays a looks-rating “die if you’re wrong” game, Easy Money, discusses Warriors jinxes, complains about “circling back” emails and RSVPs, roasts “close to selling out,” and swaps gravy train freebie stories.

The team navigates home tenancy panic, relationship dynamics, and high-stakes self-assessments.

Dan reveals a growing domestic crisis involving a decaying fruit tree that belonged to his landlord's mother, a misidentification of citrus varieties, and the silent treatment over text. Clint brings a theory to the table about "punching" above your weight class in relationships, questioning whether lower-rated partners actually see themselves as lower-rated or if they’re settling for less than a 10. Finally, the trio plays a deadly rating game where they must guess where 100 strangers would place them on a 1-to-10 scale within a 0.5 margin of error, leading to wild overestimations, surprisingly low self-esteem, and unexpected compliments.

Clint, Meg, and Dan kick off Thursday with Clint’s attempted snack-and-beer cutback, only to be derailed by Cadbury blocks and a Kiwi snack “More or Less” game. They chat Scandal updates (Spice Girls tease and Sydney Sweeney’s ad), take calls including Susie’s painful stair fall, and run Easy Money with chaotic attempts on letters F and T. Meg shares a wild post-surgery moment where she wanted to prank her worried husband, nails a mispronounced-words challenge (except “bourgeois”), and reads a brutal Korean dermatology email offering “fat reduction” and Botox. Dan discusses his viral TikToks, a Warriors jinx “Worriers” bunker idea, and Apple’s pricey new foldable iPhone.

Meg reveals she accidentally munched a cockroach in her coffee, sparking a call-in on the worst things listeners have found in their mouths. They debate dream movie memorabilia after Ed Sheeran’s prop collection, hear awkward stories about handing phones over unsupervised, and discuss getting paid for unusual work tasks—including being sent to a private movie screening. Dan panics after potentially killing a sentimental 60-year-old lemon tree, and Flats Idol continues with a standout, non-AI song from Dunedin’s Flat Notes.

Things get chaotic as the team plays a high-stakes round of Family Feud to guess the top icons, A-listers, musical powerhouses, and historical legends. From David Attenborough and Taylor Swift taking top spots to Keanu Reeves’ legendary "perfect day" routine, the crew breaks down who actually makes the cut and who gets relegated to the B-list. Finally, everyone crafts their own 5-person dream dinner party, resulting in pure chaos, wild stories, and Clint’s shockingly unhinged guest list.

Dan, Clint, and Lucy break down the ethics of paying for a bigger nose before diving headfirst into body piercings you definitely can’t wear everyday. Then, an incredible fan message details a wild, cheese-induced dream featuring base jumping, wingsuits, and a hippie camp. Plus, Producer Brady defends his controversial hunting photos on dating apps, and the guys debate what really goes down on all-male trips into the wilderness.

Clint returns from a Hawaii holiday with a tan, weight gain and a $27 Starbucks shock, while Meg is away and Lucy fills in with Scandal updates including Inbetweeners 3 news. The team debuts Flats Idol entries for Rhythm & Vines tickets, praising White Powder Palace and introducing The 212. Dan shares a creepy update about his toddler’s “Natalie” who lives in the cupboard and sits on the roof, prompting a call from a spiritual cleanser. They play Easy Money, chat family feuds, and hear wild stories about handing over phones and outrageous bills.0

The crew digs into the archives to test out unused radio prep sheets, weird metaphors, and questionable proverbs, from bringing beers to an AA meeting to taking soup on a roller coaster. Things get chaotic fast during a game of The Mouth Talks Before The Brain, leading to a studio showdown where Dan threatens to physically tackle Producer Carl over misfired sound effects. 

Plus, Meg reveals the hilarious secret handover notes she left to keep Dan alive while she was away, including his strict diet of Pizza Shapes, his obsession with Cher, and Clint's alleged yellow tooth.

Clint is away in Hawaii as Meg, Dan and Callum run a packed Edge Breakfast show featuring an Olivia Dean Festy Bestie trip giveaway, chats about finding sunglasses that suit, and a round of “More or Less” celebrity ages. They discuss North West’s live performance with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West watching separately, take the first call from Brittany studying accounting, and play Easy Money twice without a $1,000 win. Meg shares a “’90s day” with no smartphone tools, while the team talks about buying a house with a friend and launches RnV Flat Wars Flat Idol with the White Palace’s “No Sleep ’til RnV.” Dan shares creepy recordings of his son’s “Natalie” in the closet and takes supernatural calls. Bianca wins the Olivia Dean trip and surprises her brother Justin, and the show wraps with Father’s Day Hall of Fame/Shame stories.

The Greatest Eight recaps the most unhinged moments from Clint, Meg & Dan this week. Highlights include a disastrous water balloon world record attempt at Eden Park, wild movie theater stories involving smoked fish and bongs, and creepy toddler ghost encounters. Throw in a masterclass in deception for the $500 imposter prize, a hilarious live-on-air flirt fail, and the official anthem for Rolleston, and you've got a week of pure Clint, Meg and Dan

Do we temporarily ban the beloved "Guess the Fart" segment? Today is all about crude bodily-function banter, genuinely creepy ghost stories, haunted truck cabs, and horribly botched retellings of 1970s horror movies.

Clint is away, so Cal joins Meg and Dan for a packed Friday show, chatting about weeks flying by, Halloween costumes, and whether police can legally text while driving. They debut a listener-written Postcode Playlist song about fast-growing Rolleston, then run the final Mitre 10 Father’s Day giveaway with Quinn and daughter Massini. The team debates Cal’s tenancy warning over an unresolved water leak, plays Easy Money with a controversial near-win, and previews a huge sports weekend with Laura McGoldrick. For Father’s Day, they track down the iconic Father’s Day Lady, Solé, and stage a “New Zealand first” by introducing her to $20 Karen live on air.

In today's chaotic episode, the team dives headfirst into the mailbag to address listener calls about their "filthy" podcast titles. Meg puts Dan and Cal to the test with a high-stakes trivia battle to determine who is officially the thickest host. Later, Dan shares a humiliating story after getting pulled aside by daycare workers over a Father’s Day drawing he did for his two-year-old son, leading to a live drawing session that produces a terrifying hybrid of Salad Fingers and a baboon.

Clint is away flying to a Disney trip in Hawaii, leaving Cal to fill in as Meg and Dan chat about his kids’ surprise video and later updates of rain, long lines, and tired fighting kids. Meg celebrates saying yes to an early dinner with her antenatal friends, and the team debates whether voicemails are dead after Dan awkwardly leaves one for his doctor. They react to HBO’s new Harry Potter series trailer, take the first call of the day from Brogan the new stock-truck driver, and share Father’s Day thanks for Tilly’s dad Stefan. Easy Money brings near-wins, while Dan’s Rolleston Postcode Playlist wins praise from the mayor and locals. The Impostor ends with a shock: Jess fooled everyone and took $500, while Jason was telling the truth.

This week, Clint, Meg, and Dan get called into the principal's office by Producer Carl over their out-of-control, NSFW episode titles. After drawing a "line in the sand" (and threatening each other with actual flax lashings), the crew tackles the absolute scam that is modern tech innovation. From Dyson’s $1,000 camera-equipped toothbrush to the $1.75 billion disaster that was Quibi, we break down history's dumbest, most overpriced inventions.

Plus, Meg rubs a sponsored trip to Hawaii in everyone’s faces, forcing Dan and Clint to hit the block button out of pure jealousy.

lint, Meg, and Dan banter through a packed Edge Breakfast: Clint’s secret pre-holiday plans, Dan’s gym-machine embarrassment, and a chat about movies where dogs might die. They promote Kingston Calling festival and Olivia Dean standby tickets, tease Miley’s upcoming album, and play Imposters with three “dare gone wrong” hospital stories, debating inconsistencies. Meg shares an unexpected friendship with Rawl from Cool Runnings, then the show hears from Sam, a former David Bain prison pen pal. Listeners share harsh comments that stuck with them, paranormal stories sparked by Dan’s son claiming a “mean” girl Natalie lives in his cupboard, and Dan’s failed Eden Park water-balloon world record attempt. Father’s Day ends with a Mitre 10 giveaway devolving into “Up the Wazz.

The team addresses a hilarious live-on-air blunder where Meg mispronounced a caller’s name - Trani (spelt T-R-A-N-N-I)—leading to absolute mayhem and nearly suffocating the studio with laughter.

Clint raises a pressing medical mystery: why does anyone actually choose to become a "butt doctor" (proctologist)? The crew debates whether the career choice is driven by a genuine passion for saving lives, a strange personal interest, or simply the rumoured $600k salary. And, Dan reveals he was offered a job line as an international flight attendant purely because of his height and reach, prompting a wild roleplay where he attempts to soothe a nervous passenger, manage dietary restrictions, and navigate Mile High Club requests.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Monday chatting Warriors results and show segments like “Imposter” and “Easy Money.” Meg recaps taking her daughter to the Paw Patrol premiere, and the team laughs about mix-ups like “full bore” vs “full ball” and “postboned.” They tribute Tim Curry and discuss Olivia Rodrigo’s festival donation, plus Snoop Dogg’s $50K feature fee. A big debate asks when it’s acceptable to watch a shared TV show without your partner, followed by calls about pulling sickies, with Gen Z highlighted. They plan a water balloon throw-and-catch record attempt at Eden Park, start Flat Idol for Rhythm and Vines tickets, and begin an Imposter story about a nudie-run dare gone wrong.

From Clint's bizarre earlobe fetish and an audit of his cringe-worthy early Instagram posts to Sven panicking over a French condom recall mid-holiday, here are the best 8 bits from Clint, Meg & Dan this week.

The team opens up the mailbag to confront a listener named Logan from Taupo who claims Dan sleeps with a nightlight in a single bed, leading to an intense, live call-out. Things take a wild turn when the crew debates proper urinal etiquette (featuring fly stickers and football goal cakes) before diving into a horrifying "topdecking" flatting story.

Plus, Melbourne listener Tatiana calls out Dan's use of the word "babe" and reminds everyone of Clint’s infamous, cringe-inducing spice rub jingle. Meg, Dan, and Clint relive the time Meg bought 60 jars of fancy meat rub for just 7 cents each, leading to a hilarious live jingle showdown. Finally, the trio plays another round of Guess the Fart and caps off the episode with Meg's AI-generated R&B track!

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off a packed Edge Breakfast: Dan’s off to golf, Bruno Mars tickets are up for grabs and Harrison’s New York interview with Bruno Mars plays, plus Feisty Bestie gets listeners into the Olivia Dean draw. The team dives into GTA VI’s Netflix gameplay showcase with Meg’s husband Guy from Extremely Casual Gamers, vents in “Things We Hate,” and plays Easy Money for $1,000. They crown the best “Up the Wahs,” unpack the Imposters twist, share DIY workarounds, laugh at a weatherman’s on-air giggles, and debut Meg’s AI-assisted Flat Idol song to inspire flats to enter.

Clint, Meg and Dan dive into the topics that weren't quite fit for air today...

What starts as a casual chat about global retirement ages and recent celebrity deaths quickly spirals into a dark debate on how they want to go out, David Bowie's post-mortem album drops, and why Dan believes he’s guaranteed entry into heaven.

Plus, the crew reads out some of the most unhinged, explicit, and aggressive listener texts Meg received during the live show, including an unforgettable 8-inch anatomical insult. Finally, they draft a group celebrity hit list: if you fight a famous person and win, you get all their net worth. 

Clint, Meg, and Dan kick off with teasing about Clint’s old “cringe” social media posts and U.S. ESTA social handle checks, then dive into neighborhood cat drama as Clint’s neutered, “gay” cat Kimi is still blamed for kittens. They share Overthinkers Podcast highlights on life mottos and Dan’s chaotic quote collection, plus talk birds-and-bees chats and AI answering kids’ questions. The show covers Tim Curry’s death at 80, Meta’s U.S. teen time limits, an unclaimed $20.1m Lotto ticket, and a wild Price Is Right winner. Games include Easy Money, “10 but” dating flaws, Wahs Wars “Up the Wahs,” and Impostor.

On today’s episode of The Overthinkers, the crew dives deep into Dolly’s classic interview responses, comparing their own life philosophies to the queen of country herself.

From wildly specific definitions of perfect happiness (ranging from precise pizza-cooling times to bath salts in sensitive places) to deeply concerning death fantasies involving burning buildings and drug benders, no topic is off-limits. The gang debates the most overrated virtues, dissects their worst personal traits, and trades Nerf bullet penalties for bad jokes and questionable quotes. Plus, Clint names a very unexpected Hollywood hero, and Dan tries (and fails) to compare his comedic genius to Ricky Gervais.

Clint, Meg and Dan cover Aussie chart rules limiting AI-made songs and debate what counts as AI in music. They share banter and personal stories, then report breaking news that Dolly Parton has died at 80, with tributes and context about her health, legacy and songwriting. The show runs giveaways for Olivia Dean tickets and plays Easy Money, where callers narrowly miss $1,000. They revisit CJ’s surprising plan to bring his wife and ex to a concert and open the phones on unusual relationships. Segments include a police chase where officers commandeer an Uber, Dan’s mistaken-identity haircut story, Wahs Wars “Up the Wahs” contest, and Erica from A Little Nudge advising on a date who demanded a refund, plus listener cheapskate date stories.

The gang is in full chaotic force today, keeping track of studio wins and losses with a high-stakes Nerf bullet reward system, though Meg is pretty sure it’s just an excuse for Clint and Dan to gang up on her. Dan spills the awkward details of his latest barber trip, where his hairstylist couldn't place his face and ended up guessing everything from a 45-year-old school teacher to a West Auckland tip worker, completely missing his radio fame.

Things devolve quickly from there into an outrageous round of "Would You Rather," touching on passing marble-sized kidney stones versus popping a softball, grandfathers groaning in the night, and horrific hotel revenge stories involving midnight farts and pillow pranks at Electric Ave.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Tuesday’s 6am Breakfast with talk of truck drivers, lotto winnings, and a near “Night at the Museum” moment after accidentally staying past closing at MOTAT. The show dives into a global penis-length ranking where New Zealand places 16th, ahead of Australia, then covers Zara Larsson laughing onstage at a crowd choreography trend. They chat unusual fetishes after a Harry Potter actor earns money on OnlyFans with hair-focused content, take calls on weaponized incompetence in relationships, and check in with Swedish correspondent Sven about a condom recall in France. Other segments include Easy Money, The Impostor celebrity story debate, social media checks for a US trip, standout work perks, and an A/B/C-list ranking of Johnny Depp, Heath Ledger, and Cindy Crawford.

Clint, Meg and Dan break down the high-stakes office game sweeping their show: Nerf Bullets. Between accusations of Webby rigging the scoreboard, dipped Marmite bullets, and a high-stress "Happy Hour" tactic, the team tries to establish order before the entire workplace falls apart.

Plus, the mailbag brings up hot debate topics: Do gym mirrors actually trick men into thinking they're swole while trying to force women into gym memberships? Meg gets an unexpectedly specific DM from a cosmetic clinic in Turkey that makes her evaluate her own smile, Clint reveals his family's genetic eye surgery plans, and Dan pitches a truly horrifying nose-to-dick surgical swap

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Monday sharing weekend stories, reminiscing about daytime TV, and discussing 9/11 memories and US visa social media checks. They debate reclining plane seats, play audio from a mum-calling contest, and cover a huge sports weekend including the Warriors going top of the ladder and DWZ scoring with a broken collarbone. The team tests an “I’m single” hat on producer Brady with mixed results, takes calls, and runs Easy Money with some chaotic false starts. Impostors begins with Max’s Stanley Tucci apple-hunt story, and they finish with petty breakup reasons inspired by Love Is Blind UK.

Episode Summary

Today we tackle the trauma of retail changing room lighting, catching hideous mirror reflections, and why everyone lies when asked "how are you?". Things take a chaotic turn when Meg receives an edited Instagram DM asking for a "pleasure toy" recommendation she swears she never made. The crew finishes off by calling out a massive 14.5-minute voice note and Clint trying (and failing) to deliver a "cute" studio fart.

Bulleted Breakdown

Changing Room Horrors & Distortion Mirrors: The team dissects store lighting at H&M and Hallensteins, gym "slimming" mirrors, and the tragic feeling of catching your reflection and seeing a "podgy little pig".

Radical Honesty & The 7-Day Challenge: Clint arrives at the studio claiming he's "gassy," prompting a debate on fake "I'm good" greetings and inspiring Dan to answer every "how are you?" with "positively fantastic" for a week.

Benson Boone’s Zero-Like Flop: Clint gets roasted for leaving a late "Mum, watch me!" dad comment on a two-week-old Benson Boone Spider-Man backflip video—and netting zero likes.

The Sex Toy DM Mystery & The Hits Crossover: Meg receives a strange DM asking about a pleasure toy she allegedly recommended on air. The crew calls up Megan from The Hits to check if it was her—uncovering a Satisfyer Pro debate—before Meg realizes the fan was actually referencing a luggage review video from years ago.

14-Minute Voice Notes & The Fart Finale: Meg calls out listener Liam for sending a ridiculously long 14.5-minute voice message, followed by Clint attempting a "cute" mic fart that completely backfires.

Clint, Meg, and Dan kick off Friday chatting about mix-ups over what day it is and a flu jab PSA as influenza A spreads, then preview New Music Friday and discuss Will Ferrell’s support of his musician son and Zayn Malik’s farm-life photo dump. The show takes calls, including a Whanganui courier driver, before Clint explains correcting his 11-year-old who said “you get the jizz” instead of “gist,” leading to an awkward birds-and-bees talk. Highlights include Clint finally making fire with two sticks after a boss challenge, triggering a $1,000 splurge giveaway, plus the Producer’s Diary recap, a chicken-calling contest, and an ‘I’m single’ hat experiment for Producer Brady. They also surprise student Jade with Olivia Dean tickets and award the $1,000 to Nafar to treat her solo mum.

Clint celebrates a massive victory after winning a high-stakes fire-making bet against the boss, while Postman Dan shares a painful $150 PlayStation voucher mistake sent straight into the email void. The team tackles a juicy listener "Would You Rather" question, unravels Dan's secret history of writing emotional odes to past male co-hosts, and exposes ChatGPT-generated birth messages.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Thursday’s Edge Breakfast with Clint attempting to make fire from two pieces of bamboo after a $1,000 challenge from their boss Jack, while Dan debuts parody songs and Clint wears a heavily modified caveman costume on a livestream. They reveal the winner of “The Imposter” segment only to learn they chose wrong: Isaac admits he lied, and Indy proves her police-helicopter Christmas story with photos. The show also covers entertainment “Scandal” stories, Love Is Blind UK chat, Easy Money games, odd household workarounds, and a 1950s “Books by Boomers” relationship excerpt. After nearly two hours, Clint finally produces a flame, securing $1,000 to give away tomorrow.

59:15 Caveman Fire Challenge

On today's episode of Overthinkers, Meg gets interrogated over a mystery infection in her old belly button piercing - complete with allegations of rogue Dorito crumbs. Then, the team exposes the company's new internal social app, "Bob," where Meg's hyper-specific coffee order and Clint's bare-minimum profile spark pure chaos.

Plus, Clint prepares to dress in a dangerously flammable caveman costume to light a fire using only bamboo and a knife live on air. And finally, Dan tries a positivity technique from his therapist by giving out live compliments - only to accidentally insult Meg, get rejected by his best friend in New York, and completely lose his mind.

WHAT'S IN THIS EPISODE

Dorito Belly Buttons: Meg gets grilled over her hygiene routine after Clint and Dan accuse her of storing nacho crumbs in her old piercing.

The Corporate App Nobody Asked For: Roasting "Bob" - the workplace app where Meg lists three different coffee orders and Clint lists absolutely zero effort.

Caveman Survival Stunts: Clint gets 19 minutes to build fire with bamboo and a knife while wearing a wildly flammable outfit live on air.

Therapy Advice Gone Horribly Wrong: Dan tries to give a positive compliment to boost morale, accidentally tells Meg she's doing great despite being "handicapped," and sparks full-blown studio warfare.

The NYC Rescue Attempt: A desperate Dan phones his best mate in New York to save face, gets left on ring, and completely spirals.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off with breakfast chat, cookie preferences and Dan racing his electric car at 5am, then dive into “Imposter”: three people claim that at age 12 on Christmas morning a police helicopter and SWAT team arrived, with Isaac’s nettle-tea mix-up story raising suspicions. They debate a billionaire divorce offer vs a 35% claim after 20 years and three kids, plus prenups and post-nuptial agreements. Games include Quiz for Dummies and Easy Money, along with a hunt for NZ’s longest kiss record holders. Clint prepares a live bamboo-and-knife fire challenge for $1,000, and the team covers NZ consumer rights and massage etiquette.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Tuesday with breakfast chat, Meg’s porridge, and Dan waking up deaf in one ear while the team crowdsources home remedies. Dan attempts “The Reverend,” guessing a caller’s car from the rev and narrowing it to a Mitsubishi Lancer. They debate whether a goose is a medium or large bird and call Meg’s mum about getting an octopus stuck on her. Producer Brady chickens out of a gym “what song are you listening to?” bit. Easy Money stumps two callers. The Imposter game continues with a Christmas-morning helicopter/SWAT story. They cover Hayden Panettiere’s death and postpartum struggles, share worst ghosting stories, rank Andy Samberg, Robert Downey Jr., and Kate Winslet, and set a $1,000 fire-with-two-sticks challenge for Clint.

We’re spiraling over Dan getting his Celine Dion competition comment deleted on Facebook, Meg entering a $500 grocery survey, and whether a pair of $100 slippers should last longer than three months. Plus, Meg is going undercover at a local school, Dan remembers getting reported to the dean for sharing a drink bottle, and we debate if Corgi racing is actually okay!

Clint, Meg and Dan recap the Wahs big win and Luke Metcalf’s hamstring injury, then react to an AI-made fan song created with Suno and discuss how AI affects creativity. They preview a “Hit the Spot” idea tied to Alex Warren’s NZ shows and promote Olivia Dean tickets and the Festy Besty cue to call. Laura aces Quiz for Dummies, Beer and Carly take on Easy Money, and the Impostor game begins with Indy’s claim of a police helicopter landing on Christmas. Meg shares cringe-worthy breakup closure letters, Clint is challenged to make fire with two bamboo sticks for $1,000, and Cath explains being left seven days before her Tuscany wedding.

We start off with a massive question: would you take five million dollars if it meant an immortal goose was hunting you down for an entire month? We also spiral over unfair house deposits, chaotic breakup piñatas, and whether the boys could actually survive a threesome. 

Clint, Meg, and Dan kick off Friday chatting NRL results and Meg’s awkward “better looking in real life” compliment to Dan. They riff on a 1973 relationship book urging wives to greet husbands in costumes to stop cheating, then take calls about partners dressing up—Batman comes up more than once. A discussion about keeping removed body parts escalates from Meg saving her daughter’s first haircut to listeners storing placentas, gallstones, hip bones, and even dog testicles. Scandal includes Courteney Cox rescuing Isla Fisher’s breast milk and a Raygun Netflix doc. Dan’s mum texts a story about being mistaken for his wife. Easy Money is played, and the show’s “Imposter” game reveals Jake truly was jailed in Bali. The episode ends debating whether to tell a friend if their partner is cheating.

We kick things off with a wild desert island hypothetical that derails immediately when Meg decides a single piece of steak is a solid survival tool. Things get deeply personal with some brutal relationship dilemmas, before Producer Carl tries to force us into a bizarre experiment involving a fart gun and five innocent girls. You're honestly not ready for this chaos.

We are cracking open Producer Carl's unpopular opinion envelopes today and honestly, you aren't ready for the absolute chaos. Dan reveals a very intimate bathroom habit, Meg pitches the genius idea of having a second husband just for laundry, and Clint literally walks away from the microphone. 

Clint, Meg and Dan dive into a wide-ranging chat about bidets and public toilets. Dan’s attempted dirty talk sparks listener stories and debate about what works, consent and confidence. They bring back “Quiz for Dummies,” attempt another $1,000 “Easy Money” round with mixed results, and run “Impostor” where Gene, Jake and Andre all claim they were arrested and held in a Bali prison, prompting callers to vote on who’s lying. The team vents in “Things We Hate,” shares sports and viral news, holds a playful “caucus” on Meg’s self-proclaimed boss status, and Meg gets emotional about her daughter Daisy’s first haircut, leading into callers sharing body parts they’ve kept.

We're kicking off this one by laying down our dirtiest secrets and dedicating the episode to a listener heading into radio! Things get completely unhinged when Meg reads out the absolute worst ex-boyfriend nicknames, from "T-Rex" to "C-Puppy". Plus, Dan attempts a private confession that goes horribly wrong.

On the Overthinkers podcast, Clint, Meg, and Dan read listener mail from their Overthinkers Feedback Instagram, including a belated birthday message for Clint from longtime listener Hayden Allen. Hayden poses a 24-hour challenge: complete set amounts of wanks, beers, sweet treats (donuts or muffins), and running kilometers, finishing one task before starting the next, and decide the best order. The hosts debate what counts as a “wank,” joke about feasibility and exhaustion, and each proposes an order, with Meg initially misunderstanding the rules. They ultimately argue Dan’s plan is most realistic, agree Meg’s is the worst, and plan to post the question for listeners to answer.

An early Tuesday Edge Breakfast chat covers behind-the-scenes chaos and breakfast banter, Dan’s gym/moustache era, and what “fly like a G6” really means. Clint revels in being home alone while his family is in Rarotonga, prompting jokes about his newfound freedom. Marcus Lush briefly references their “Hit The Spot” feature, and the team plans a Timbaland-style attempt. Meg shares a study on ovulation and strip-club earnings and suggests “period maxing” for photos and meetings. Two Easy Money callers narrowly miss $1,000 with letters O and M. They discuss workplace “luck,” including a sauna raffle and Carl winning a meat pack, then touch on AI videos, a bat-echolocation album, and an IVF embryo mix-up. The A-List debate lands Whitney and Adele as A-list, Lorde as B, before Dan dives into Bigfoot sightings and teases an interview with Finding Bigfoot’s Matt.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off with a chat about going to see Moana, agreeing the live-action version feels like a money grab, then open the mailbag: Honor ranks meeting the hosts (Meg first, Clint second, Dan third), Caitlin shares she listens while working as a sexton digging and filling graves, and Kirsty says she laughs out loud on walks and gets odd looks. The episode’s theme is “alternate lives,” with Clint imagining selling up and living in Bali/Thailand, Meg picturing a New York apartment or a Paris bookshop life, and Dan recalling a dream of Broadway success. They finish with a kids’ party mishap where Clint changes his son after an explosive accident, leaving a stranger thinking he’d soiled himself.

We just wrapped a massive radio show, but we couldn't leave without spilling our most absurd secrets! From Meg dropping a total bombshell about her past medical history to a primary school teacher asking for our wildly inappropriate musical script, things spiralled fast. Plus, we bring back iconic Guess The Fart!

It’s an “Every Caller Wins” morning on The Edge as Clint, Meg and Dan give away Rhythm & Vines double passes with four days of camping (about $1,000 each) to callers like Lucy, Sophie, Harmony, Natalia, Jamie, Brody, Sydney and others, plus selfless winners nominating friends and family. The team debates what counts as a “plethora,” shares studio banter and tips on how to get on air, and reacts to Megan being quoted in The New York Times after comments about Ariana Grande and culture shifts around thinness. Segments include Naughty 6:40 featuring a nurse’s bizarre ER story (four potatoes), Easy Money attempts for $1,000, clickbait callback stories, and Clint’s chaotic playdate handcuff mishap.

We’re breaking down our wild personal bank account names and old-school Chrisco hampers, but things get off track when Clint lets off a hot, silent-but-deadly fart in his car at football practice. How does he escape?

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off with a coffee catch-up, nap confessions, hazard-light parking “hacks,” and a premium economy upgrade story, then Dan continues his revving-game streak by identifying a Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart by sound. They discuss a viral Timbaland clip, take first call from Esther on mat leave, and cover a $3M peptide seizure and beagle border checks. Guy Montgomery joins to talk Spelling Bee and roasts Producer Carl’s terrible spelling. Easy Money callers struggle with S and L. The team debates meeting heroes with stories about JJ Watt, Pink, Ariana Grande and others, gets relationship prompts from Erica, reacts to a council Zoom bathroom backdrop, previews their Fiji trip with bartender Billy, and opens the phones on freezing flats and dodgy landlords before playing “They’re a 10, but…

We officially went way too far, and now corporate is involved! Clint spent $80 of company money on an Air Zooka fart gun, and the purchase got flagged by the CFO and sent straight to the CEO. We tested it live in studio.

Clint, Meg and Dan riff on Kiwis failing learner licence retests and confusing give-way rules, then share stories about buying a new bed and the absurd world of ultra-absorbent mattress protectors. They preview and play Dan’s EDM “Postcode Playlist” anthem for Gisborne ahead of Rhythm & Vines’ final year there, plus chat Pie Awards winners and a brutal cold snap hitting Dunedin. The show dives into the return of the “family computer,” awkward internet discoveries, and how much real money people spend on in-game purchases. They also discuss unregulated peptides, core memories from comments, and Guy Montgomery drops by to roast producer Carl’s spelling.

On the Overthinkers Podcast, Meg says the show will pause for about a week due to the Matariki holiday and time off for her second daughter Mili Moo’s first birthday, returning Tuesday. The team jokes about Cal’s extreme screen time and how he’s often the first to like “unhinged” Instagram Reels, while debating whether he should use his free time to build an “empire.” Meg reveals she’s been trying to write a fiction book but struggles to find time and creative space while juggling early mornings, the show, and parenting. They discuss how authors build entire worlds, whether everything has already been invented, and speculate about future brain chips, ads, and Black Mirror-style tech.

Meg, Cal, and Dan chat about Clint being away on a family cruise and how onboard casinos and luxury shops can tempt people into spending money they don’t have. They swap Lotto strategies, including buying after a big jackpot win to reduce the chance of splitting, and Dan admits to once keeping a small syndicate win and skimming a weekly “buffer” from his flat bills account without guilt. The conversation turns to confrontation and fear of getting in trouble, then to personal humiliation stories: Dan got stuck naked up a tree until his friend’s dad rescued him, Cal accidentally joined a work Zoom with explicit porn as his virtual background, and Meg recalls twice failing to recognize people she knew and introducing herself to them.

We’re spiraling over a movie theatre being completely evacuated because of a horrific fart, and honestly, we haven’t recovered! Between Dan’s boss-funded fart gun, Clint’s disastrous TV invention history, and a heated debate on solo baths, you’re so not ready for Dan’s quiet breakdown.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Tuesday with banter about newsreader opinions, Tanya’s six‑week overseas trip, and celebrity gossip, then launch a new “sniff out the liar” segment idea offering $500. They promote Long Distance Bestie Island in Fiji with limited packages, play Easy Money with callers, and debate letting kids watch age‑restricted movies. The team shares wild cheating stories, argues A/B/C‑list rankings for Robert Pattinson, David Beckham and Kris Jenner, and asks how fast is too fast to move on after a partner dies. Patty Gower joins to discuss unregulated peptides and their risks.

We’re diving into absolute chaos after a listener mail question about our work hours sent us down a wild rabbit hole! From mouse pads and hotel curtains to Dan’s outrageous confession about a self-inflicted direct hit to his own face, we completely lost it. You're not ready for this!

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Monday with Warriors banter, Meg’s headphone mishap and a chaotic craft “haul” interrupted by her kid. They plug the Overthinkers podcast and replay a wildly inappropriate Would You Rather involving Dan calling his mum. The show covers Charlie Puth on opening up in music, chats with a tow-truck driver about towing rules and dating apps, and Dan’s looming security meeting after clicking “copy files” while booking a spray tan. They discuss accidental Instagram likes, play Easy Money twice, share outrageous real-life names, recap weekend stories (Bigfoot sightings, Lotto winners, Twirl vs Flake), and Meg speaks candidly about eating disorders and Ariana Grande imagery. They also debate whether mum or partner gets the front seat and start writing a Gisborne “Postcode Playlist” song.

We ended up in absolute shambles after night-show host Lucy dropped by the studio and left behind the most stomach-churning "gift" on Meg’s desk. Things spiraled out of control so fast that we ended up calling Dan’s mum live on air for a deeply uncomfortable "Would You Rather" scenario, and let’s just say her answer left all of us completely speechless. You are not ready for how gross and absurd this gets.

Friday chaos with Clint, Meg and Dan: Dan celebrates a week off “obvious” sugar, they field an early caller confused about an R&V ticket giveaway date, and Meg finds old diaries full of cat-drawing practice while packing to sell her house. The team chats an 82–12 Roosters thrashing, a stat showing NZ leads in women in their late 40s never marrying, and Ben Affleck winning $1M for charity on Millionaire. They play Easy Money, vent “Things We Hate,” and reveal Dan’s Google history. Plus, they create competing alarm sounds (Karen “20 whacks,” a Morgan Freeman-style pep talk, and Clint’s chaotic entry), then debate Kmart’s $89 recording glasses and why receipts get scanned.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Thursday talking about not wishing life away and being present with kids, then hunt for New Zealand’s best wake-up sound with the Jurassic Park theme as a frontrunner. They share an Overthinkers clip about a woman finding her dad and discovering his explicit SoundCloud, before discussing allegations against Jared Leto. The first call comes from Amy in Queenstown, a new drug-testing worker. Meg panics over a mysterious computer mouse package that turns out to be her mum’s lost Airbnb item. The team covers banana disease, a Fiji shark attack survivor’s advice, and sprinter Zoe Hobbs’ Commonwealth gold, then play Easy Money with callers. Dan triggers a workplace security alert while booking a spray tan, leading into “glow up to blow up” beauty disasters, and they debate a controversial post-date voicemail demanding sex, plus stories about crying to get out of trouble.

We almost had to shut down the entire podcast today after Dan tried showing us his spray tan lines and gave the camera way more than anyone asked for. Between his developing fake tan, heated debates over electric mountain bikes, and previewing our unhinged new alarm sounds, things got out of hand fast. You’re definitely going to want to hear this one!

Meg found a video of a girl who tracked down her dad, only to find his SoundCloud loaded with tracks about taking off panties. Naturally, we spent ten minutes spitting our own wild sex-rap rhymes live on air. Plus, we broke down the absolute chaos of boys' weekends versus girls' trips. Trust us, you’re not ready for this.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Wednesday with Dan’s infamous hula-hoop “thrusting” training, a pact to stop doing open-mouth promo shots, and Meg’s fake-tan rebooking after realizing she wore tatty undies. They take calls on the nationwide cold snap (frozen pipes, refreezing windscreens) and play Easy Money for $1,000. Hazel Houland joins after winning a Commonwealth Games bronze medal. The team swaps “how did I get here?” stories, including a Vanuatu cruise mishap and a Vegas dice incident, then debates pretty privilege after a viral Usher stage moment.

We thought we were interviewing the All Blacks today, but instead, we ended up reading a listener email from Graham that called Clint completely replaceable. To make up for it, Clint made us tape numbers to our foreheads for a game that spiraled way too fast into Dan asking about Clint’s ass, Meg rating her own looks, and Clint trying to justify drinking 79 beers in December. You're not ready for how out of hand this gets.

Clint, Meg and Dan reunite with the full team (minus Bella in Europe), swap stories about Dan’s less-than-supportive “vomit etiquette,” decode listener Paul’s emoji texts, and debate the weird appeal of Costco hauls, including massive grapes and bulk-buy storage problems. They celebrate swimmer Hazel Hourigan’s Commonwealth Games bronze and discuss butterfly stroke, then run Scandal headlines about Nathan Fillion’s Jason Bateman autograph prank and a teased Selena/Becky collaboration. A first-time caller from Timaru chats, followed by a cautionary tale about a family losing linked Google accounts after a teen’s explicit Gemini Live incident, sparking talk of two-factor authentication. They play Easy Money twice, interview a 12-year-old who mimics bird calls (including a tui), share mums’ bragging habits, cover a Dunedin concert halted by a feces biohazard, and finish with an A-Lister List ranking child stars.

Dan is off sick looking after his family, but he's out here claiming he’s totally immune to the squirts because he has an "iron gut." We literally had to call him live on air to call out this ridiculous claim, and he insists he's never had them in his life!

You are not ready for his absolute wild reasoning on this one—wait until you hear what his doctor supposedly told him!

Dan’s off sick as Clint and Meg battle winter bugs, recap Meg’s birthday and family weekends, and plug the unfiltered Overthinkers podcast with a chaotic kitchen-utensil-hands clip. They hit Marvel/Comic-Con headlines, take calls about freezing weather and marathon mishaps, and debate watering plants with menstrual blood. The show dives into “Beat That Coincidence,” including an Airbnb wall photo featuring the guests and a penguin mascot crashing an international penguin conference. They update Long Distance Bestie Island Fiji selling out to a waitlist, play Easy Money, share “blame it on the alcohol” stories, and roast Meg’s new steering wheel cover obsession at 36.

We are finally back together as a full crew, and things completely devolved from the start. Between Dan revealing his very unsettling dream utensil hands and Clint confessing to an impromptu mating ritual on a cruise ship stage, you are definitely not ready for this episode!

Clint, Megan and Dan reunite for a packed Friday show, hyping Long Distance Bestie Island (tickets on sale and details at bestieisland.co.nz) and the return of Hit The Spot. Dan declares he’s giving up sugar, then proves his new game “The Reverend” by identifying vehicles from live revs. The team crowns Sebastian as Canadian Club’s Biggest Crush, plays Easy Money for $1,000, and chats sport with Laura McGoldrick about the Commonwealth Games and Warriors. Meg reveals an Oxford MBA student is writing a paper on the show. They discuss side hustles, a controversial Zuru “Mini Mum & Baby Surprise” doll, a viral bird-call kid, and a Spanish-speaking pilot prank translation.

Wait until you hear us try ringing Clint to break the news

Meg returns as Clint stays sick, sharing her daughter Miller’s first birthday and a brutal holiday week that included norovirus and Miller’s pneumonia hospitalization. The team launches “The Rev Rend,” guessing cars by their engine revs, correctly identifying a Toyota Estima and a Nissan Navara. They debate stinky workplace lunches after a Sealord campaign about eating fish at work, then attempt a viral Oreo-stacking-in-the-mouth challenge, where Cal fits nine. The show also promotes Long Distance Bestie Island in Fiji (from $2,900 with a $500 deposit, on sale Friday 8am) and hears callers’ “put your foot in it” moments plus extreme stories of what people did soon after giving birth.

When a news story broke about amateur freestyle rap blowing up in Europe, Dan and Producer Carl took it as their personal invitation to spit bars live on air. It turns out that improvising over a beat is way harder than it looks, and the attempt spiraled into absolute chaos, absurd lyrics, and uncontrolled laughter ridiculously fast. You are definitely not ready for how off-the-rails this attempt gets.

Clint and Meg are away, leaving the boys to run the show as they preview the Commonwealth Games with Dame Sophie Pascoe, who explains what makes this year’s event different, how to watch on Sky and TV3, and what it’s like after retiring from elite sport. The team promotes Long Distance Bessie Island in Fiji and jokes about planning “activities” for the trip. Easy Money returns with callers taking on the fast-paced word game. They debate bringing celebrity haircut photos to barbers, including Dan’s Justin Bieber reference, and hear listener stories. The episode also covers Gus the long-stay SPCA dog being adopted, a push to adopt Sonic, Rhythm and Vines leaving Gisborne in 2027, and a final round of nightmare neighbor complaints.

Clint and Meg called in sick, so Producer Carl and Dan decided to run their own investigation. Clint claimed he had a doctor's certificate, but after giving him a prank call, his suspiciously fine-sounding voice gave him away! Plus, wait until you hear how many Oreos Cal crammed into his mouth to shatter an internet record.

Clint, Meg, and Dan chat about a short-week Thursday and missing New Music Friday for Matariki, plus upcoming releases. Cal reveals 11.5 hours of phone screen time and shares a rabbit hole about eels traveling to the Sargasso Sea and mysterious breeding theories. They interview 82-year-old marathon-running, early-morning swimmer Don “Gaga” Alexander, nominated as The Edge’s Biggest Crush for his kindness and former-vet help. The show discusses high-security celebrity wedding invitations, long-weekend plans, CEO compensation “more or less,” and gives away “Take the Edge Off My Life” cash for a hotel room and a turntable. They debate Afterpay debt and share dramatic family bombshell stories, including DNA surprises, secret families, and a faked death misunderstanding.

A short-week Edge Breakfast packed with chat about severe NZ weather, a bizarre PR coincidence after tracking dog poo through the house, and Cal’s nine-hour Instagram Reels day. The team plays “more or less” on highest-grossing concert tours, takes calls about wedding plans and memorable number-plate skills, and crowns crush nominees like Snow Jackson. “Take the Edge Off My Life” surprises listeners with help for glasses and post-chemo dental repairs. They swap shocking alternative-toilet stories, awkward memorial mishaps, password-management hacks, and jaw-dropping tales of what partners did during labor, before announcing the Warehouse Club trolley takeover winner with a massive prize haul.

Meg, Dan and Cal cover a rain-themed throwback playlist, debate Ella Langley’s viral appeal, and share supermarket stories—from bad parking to the “Ash London” grocery shop hack. They preview Ricky Gervais’ 25th anniversary Office special and discuss dating apps with caller Claudia, a single mum studying social work. Meg recounts confronting a man who cut in at the fishmonger, then the team plays an animal weight “More or Less” game. They award $240 to Shannon for a Cycle Taupō entry, swap infamous school-prank stories, get a Dunedin flood update from Mayor Sophie Barker, dive into flat mate nightmare calls, rank wedding A-listers, and hear animal-destruction tales including Neil the seal.

On this Overthinkers Podcast episode, Meg and Dan chat with Calum Payne about personal “rebrands,” including Calum becoming “Cal” and Megan becoming “Meg,” before revisiting a past hypothetical: choosing three celebrities to help start a new society on Mars. Cal’s picks spiral from considering Obama to choosing Elon Musk, plus Meg and Guy, prompting jokes about leadership, survival skills, and reproduction. Meg revises her own Mars team to Handy Andy (Andy Kane), Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Michelle Obama. Dan rebuilds his list around Hailey Bieber, Barack Obama, and Zendaya, debating leadership, building, and entertainment.

Matariki Banter, Taylor Swift Wedding Rumors & Monday Morning Venting | The Edge Breakfast Clint’s away, so Cal fills in as the team chats Matariki plans, a bland kindy soup, and Taylor Swift wedding rumors before voting on a throwback track. They play a Rotten Tomatoes higher/lower game, take calls celebrating first-home wins, and “Take the Edge Off My Life” gives cash for a dentist bill and travel to see a long-distance partner. Dan confesses parking in an emergency-only spot, the show crowns a “biggest crush” nominee, shares wild coincidences, and vents about everyday hates like escalator blockers, self-checkout errors, lunchboxes, and supermarket aisle talkers.

Every Caller Wins GTA 6 + Hook: The Musical Reveal, Freestyle Friday & Grand Theft Stress TestIt’s chaos on The Edge as “Every Caller Wins” kicks off, giving away GTA VI pre-orders to anyone who gets on air. Emily scores a copy for her husband, callers battle the “Grand Theft Stress Test” with wrong answers only, and clickbait stories include a gruesome pinky reattachment. The team also runs a GTA contract segment where partners negotiate chores, date nights, and coffee machines in exchange for uninterrupted gaming. Plus: a throwback track, Meg’s reluctant Freestyle Friday rap, town “too much of” chat, and a preview of the 38-minute Hook: The Musical video and backstage mic recordings.

Meg and Clint host without Dan, hype tomorrow’s “Every Caller Wins GTA VI” giveaway, and share Producer Karl’s tips for getting on air. They chat with Shantal, a fire dancer who’s had minor burns, and award her movie tickets. Scandal headlines cover Chris Brown paying $13M after his dog mauled a housekeeper and a Camp Rock 3 teaser. Meg quizzes Clint on athlete lifetime earnings and plays real-or-fake Michelin-star menu items. Paddy Gower discusses interviewing All Blacks coach Dave Rennie. Meg steals the boss’s EV for a GTA-style mission, and they celebrate Google Maps adding a NZ voice for Te Reo Māori pronunciation.
