FULL SHOW Dan hits the spot for all the mums out there

from The Edge Breakfast · host rova | The Edge

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Friday with headphone drama and banter, then Dan recounts taking his son to Auckland Zoo, getting dripped on by a tiger and embarrassing himself climbing up a slide rescue. They celebrate David Attenborough turning 100, chat to long-time listeners who are truck drivers, and bring back “Hit The Spot” with Dan attempting Mumford & Sons for a Mother’s Day tie-in. The team plays a Mother’s Day trivia game, talks weekend sport with Laura McGoldrick, and Dan fails to convince a Canterbury mechanic to support the Blues. The team see who is Employee of the Week, Scandal includes KJ Apa and Kevin Hart, and Fire Chief Dave Phillips discusses underfunding and breakdowns in NZ Fire Service. They debate “hot or not” hobbies, award a Mother’s Day prize to Lisa, and Meg shares a chaotic bean-and-salad disaster day. 00:00 Unhinged Show Intro 01:51 Zoo Trip and Tiger Juice 02:57 Slide Rescue Disaster 04:51 Attenborough Turns 100 06:14 First Calls and Truck Talk 09:59 Hit The Spot Practice Run 13:44 Mothers Day Quiz Game 17:13 Laura McGoldrick Sports Preview 22:16 Who Dares Blues Pledge Prank 25:22 Employee of the Week Roast 29:26 Scandal Headlines Roundup 30:45 Fire Service Funding Crisis 34:45 Hot Or Not Hobbies 40:17 Listener Hobbies Hotline 44:49 Hit The Spot Mothers Day 47:49 Mothers Day Letter Surprise 52:11 Meg Worst Day Ever 01:01:11 Burnt Toast Theory Wrap 01:02:31 Final Sign Off
