The Edge Breakfast

We brought OVERTHINKERS live to the stage for an epic pre-show celebration of Dan's childhood masterpiece, HOOK, The Musical. What started as a hunt through Dan's mum Julie's attic turned into exposing his cringey diary which is 20 years old. We also do one of our most famous or infamous podcast segments live, this is one you don't want to miss!

Clint, Meg, and Dan recap the live performance of “Hook: The Musical,” a script Dan wrote at 15, including minor onstage slip-ups, audience reactions, and the ad-libbed moment where Meg (as Smee) and Dan (as Hook) kissed. They revisit a pre-show live podcast where Clint performed “Guess the Fart,” discuss behind-the-scenes praise for producer Kyle and tech producer Brady, and take calls from attendees reviewing the show. The team shares pop culture updates, does Meg’s ongoing rap practice, debates the A-list status of Robin Williams, Serena Williams, and Pharrell Williams, and gives away $275 to cover a school camp cost. Dan also admits he was fined for texting Ash London while stopped at lights. They announce that on Friday every caller who gets on air will win a GTA VI pre-order.

We back! Absolute apologies for Friday's massive audio disaster—turns out we played "Guess the Fart" entirely to ourselves while you heard nothing, which is deeply embarrassing. Today, we are exposing Dan’s secret bad-boy weekend lifestyle, debating who the real office "dead weight" is, and trying to guess each other's weights. It gets chaotic fast.

Clint, Meg and Dan gear up for the sold-out debut of Hooked: The Musical at 7pm, joking about an all-day rehearsal, costumes, and a dreaded on-stage kiss. They recap how Dan’s teenage script was rediscovered and turned into a show, debate Clint’s “funniness” rating, and run Weather Watch plus a theater-themed quiz. Meg’s reluctant freestyle rap returns, Dan shares a wild lads’ weekend, and the team discusses tech mishaps. They audition narrators and pick Richie, then make “Take the Edge Off My Life” calls, gifting cash for a portable dishwasher and a child’s mattress, and give away the final double pass with venue host Sarah.

We didn’t think this episode would devolve into Clint demonstrating a "sneaky" game he plays with his wife, but here we are. Meg is completely traumatized, Dan is stressing over the logistics of a three-way, and a primary school math quiz leaves us all spiraling. You’re not ready for this chaos.
