The Edge Breakfast

Clint, Meg, and Dan react to New Zealand’s first football World Cup loss since 1982 (blowing a 1–0 lead to lose 3–1) and look ahead to the next match. Dan shares a new half-marathon sponsorship with a chafing-cream brand and the awkward mid-race reapplication. They discuss UK politics and a game comparing world leaders’ time in power, then run movie trailer updates for Ricky Gervais’ Alley Cats and Taika Waititi’s Clara. The show plugs a Warehouse $2,000 trolley grab, chats Love Actually vs Jackass, and gets “naughty” about Clint’s wife smelling his farts after nasal surgery. They cover cheating caught via home cameras, debate A/B/C-listers, celebrate “super grandparents,” and use a listener’s pig Spencer to predict France vs Iran

We just rehearsed what would happen if one of us died, and honestly, the loyalty is gone... Dan straight up admitted he’d be back on air by Monday just to pay his bills, while Clint absolutely lost his mind crying over a hypothetical hedgehog accident in a Toyota Vitz. You're not ready for how fast this spiraled into absolute chaos.

We are officially in full rehearsal mode for the musical, and things are already completely off the rails. While Dan was away trying to record his backing tracks, we sent Carl into the recording studio to spy on him, and let’s just say his high-register vocals are something you truly have to hear to believe. Between pranking Dan’s tracks and exposing Meg for being a bit too gassy in her own sessions, we are spiralling fast.

Clint, Meg and Dan count down one week until their one-night “Hooked” musical, stressing about missing rehearsal time, mics and costumes, while taking calls from excited ticket holders. They play HBO Max trivia, cover Kristen Wiig’s $6.2m ‘treehouse’ listing and Lizzo’s album sales, and give away Jackass tickets. Listener stories range from magpie, goat and pig attacks to shark-attack stats. Meg shares postpartum reflections on having a non-sleeper then a sleeper baby. They react to Olivia Rodrigo saying fans wear nappies to keep front-row spots, discuss rekindling relationships after decades, and ask how badly people have lied on CVs, including a pilot with a fake license.

We are officially losing our minds this Friday. You are not ready for the sheer chaos of Dan admitting he once spent a four-hour dinner party pretending to be a blind man using a cattle prod as a cane just to win a bet. It gets weirder, it gets smellier, and we completely spiral.
