The Edge Breakfast

Clint’s algorithm has spoken and he’s ready to sell everything and move to Guatemala for a grand a month. We’re not sure if he’s actually leaving or if he’s just had enough of Meg calling Tom Hanks “Robert Gump,” but the wheels officially fall off when we try to imagine the show without him. Spoiler: Dan as an anchor is a total car crash you have to hear to believe.

They chat with Michelle, a site supervisor, then debate clickbait “daily sex” studies and take listener calls. The team “Take the Edge Off My Life” by helping Crystal with a $400 power/internet bill as she cares for her terminally ill husband, and later helps Lucy with ferry costs for a fresh start in Christchurch. Clint interviews The Inspired Unemployed about their Kathmandu puffer collab and COVID rise, they debate leaving concerts early, propose new faces for NZ currency, read Dan’s teenage diary about youth group antics, play Roll Call Roulette, promote Pink Shirt Day, and “catch a cheater” over a Kmart trolley text.

We’re spiraling over what our lives are actually worth. Would you shave a year off your clock for a million bucks? Clint’s got a specific "retirement" number that’s borderline offensive, Dan’s planning his life as a dangerous billionaire, and we unpack an influencer’s absolute DM meltdown. It gets deep, messy, and very expensive.

They unpack Mother’s Day expectations and share hall of fame/shame stories, then debate a study claiming the average time a man lasts in bed is 16 minutes, with a lesbian caller saying sessions can last hours. Jack Tame joins to discuss his TV special “You, Me and Aussie” about whether moving to Australia is worth it, followed by listeners who moved and returned.

01:07:20 Wrap Up And Goodbye

We kicked things off with a massive announcement that Westlife is officially heading to New Zealand next July. This sparked a heated debate about when the "birthday weekend" actually happens if your big day falls on a Wednesday. Meg is convinced you have to celebrate the weekend after because you aren't actually the new age yet, while the rest of us are just trying to figure out how to stretch the party for as long as possible.
Things took a turn for the weird when Meg dug up an old article from when she was 25 where she claimed she was "sick" of Taylor Swift. She barely recognised her own voice or her face from back then, let alone her taste in music. Clint chimed in saying he still sees the same guy inside himself, even if that guy is prone to some pretty questionable life choices.
Speaking of questionable choices, Clint finally shared the full story of his infamous wedding haka. He was the celebrant for the ceremony but ended up shirtless on the transport bus at the end of the night, performing for a group of Australians who had never seen a haka in person. The cringe was real as he described the sober bride watching from the front of the bus while he gave it his absolute all.
To finish us off, we entered a bizarre competition over who produces the most saliva. Dan claims he has a "regular swallowing system," but the audio evidence of everyone trying to spit on command says otherwise. It got messy, it got brown (thanks to Meg’s coffee), and it’s definitely something you’ll have to hear to believe.
