I genuinely think we’ve hit a new low, but in the most scientific way possible. We sat down with "Fiber Daddy" Alan Lynn, the man who turned "fart maxing" into a viral sensation, to learn the literal recipe for the most potent farts known to man. Things get incredibly competitive when Clint tries to prove his "Fart Monster" status on demand, and let’s just say the results were... lingering. From decibel meters to "stink ratings" from his own mother, Alan’s insights left us absolutely spiraling. You’re not ready for the "Trumpet" vs. the "Missile Fire." 00:30 – International Roll Call: Eliminating Spain and greeting our Japanese "Overthinkers." 02:15 – Meet Fiber Daddy: Introducing Alan Lynn and his viral "fart maxing" journey. 04:10 – The Fart Factor Index: Alan explains the science of volume vs. stench. 05:50 – Maternal Ratings: Why Alan’s mum is the ultimate judge of his "stink" experiments. 07:20 – The "Trumpet" Recording: Analyzing a real-world example of high-volume gas. 08:45 – Guess the Fart: The team tries to mimic the "Missile Fire" sound. 10:30 – Clint’s Live Failure: The high-pressure moment Clint couldn't deliver. 12:15 – Liquid Salad: How a fart-based brand became a legitimate health product.

On The Edge Breakfast, Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Friday with banter about family routines and vote on a 6am throwback “Friday vibe” playlist song. They play a Shakespeare-themed “More or Less,” take calls about cleaning and awkward moments that look suspicious, and discuss Dan filming a coffee-spill reel that made it seem like he was doing the self-deed in his car. EZ Money contestants try for $10,000, and the producer diary recaps the week’s highlights. The episode’s biggest moment is a Truth Booth confession: “Janey” reveals she’s been having an affair with her child’s friend’s mum, prompting discussion about coming out later in life, including a caller sharing her dad came out after meeting a male nurse. 00:00 Friday Kickoff Banter 01:53 Friday Vibe Playlist Vote 14:02 First Caller of the Day 18:50 Naughty 6:40  23:40 Not What It Looks Like... 27:03 EZ Money  29:46 Warriors Our Year Hype 34:04 Flex Factor Auditions 39:01 Producer Diary Highlights 43:51 New Music Friday Picks 48:23 Girl Dads Bathroom Debate 57:21 EZ Money Challenge 59:35 Truth Booth  01:06:40 Coming Out Later Stories

We’re spiraling today, and honestly, it’s mostly Dan’s fault. He managed to offend everyone by admitting he’d actually be flattered to have a stalker, which went down about as well as you’d expect with Meg. We also try to figure out how to survive in a cage and why Clint thinks shoving books up his backside is a legitimate way to gain knowledge. Things get even more intense when we have to decide who’s in charge of our new society on Mars. Between "Executive Reproducers" and Dan's immediate plan to take his clothes off in the Martian atmosphere, it’s a miracle any of us are still talking to each other. You’re not ready for the "Butt Book Bandit." 00:45 – Eliminating Norway: We check in on our international listeners. 02:50 – Obsessive Love vs. Hate: Dan’s controversial "flattered by a stalker" take. 03:40 – Meg’s Stalker Story: Why Edge TV was the biggest hit in NZ prisons. 06:20 – The Poop vs. Dishwasher Debate: Clint defends his bidet lifestyle. 08:15 – Cage Logistics: Why horizontal bars are superior for activities. 09:40 – The Knowledge Ring: Clint’s very "hands-on" approach to reading books. 12:15 – The Mars Mission: Assigning roles for the end of the world. 15:30 – President Bella: Testing our leader’s basic space knowledge.

Clint, Meg and Dan chat about daylight savings, running breaks, and music throwbacks, then open listener mail containing lolly cake and a “special brownie,” debating if it’s laced before Dan tastes it. They play Last Joke Standing, EZ Money with callers Tony and Raye, and discuss awful teacher stories from listeners. Flex Factor stalls when Monique, who claimed she can detect missing puzzle pieces by weight, ghosts the show; Meg guesses wrong on a test puzzle. They share good-news headlines, take calls about movies people “did it” to, recap a packed Linkin Park concert at Spark Arena, roast Clint’s gifted bidet Instagram post, and put a listener in the draw for a Harry Styles flyaway. 00:00 Show Kickoff and Banter 01:53 Running Breaks and Fitness 06:49 Neighbor Veggie Dilemma 09:51 First Call Supermarket Chat 14:25 More or Less Formula One 17:24 Dan Opens Listener Package 22:09 Last Joke Standing Game 25:12 EZ Money  27:36 Bad Teachers Stories 40:53 Good News Roundup 43:55 Movies That Killed Mood 48:04 EZ Money 50:19 Flex Factor No Show... 55:59 Meg Tries The Puzzle 59:18 Linkin Park Packed Arena 01:03:50 Cringe Bidet Ad Roast 01:08:08 Harry Styles Flyaway Call

We are spiralling over the "Longest Drink in Town" and honestly, my brain hurts. Jeremy’s dad designed the iconic Kiwi giraffe cup, but he hasn't seen a cent from the 120 million cups sold. Is the cup tall? Is the drink long? We also dive into the "Honest Day" hypothetical where no one can lie for 24 hours, and let's just say Dan’s answers about his love life got real awkward, real fast. Wait until you hear our heated debate on the moon landing—Meg is convinced it’s the biggest lie in history. Between killer whales being dolphins and the invention of the internet, we are overthinking absolutely everything today. You are not ready for the chaos! 00:45 – The $120 million milkshake cup tragedy 04:30 – The Honest Day: One question you can't lie about 05:45 – Dan’s "spinning plates" threesome nightmare 07:15 – Why Donald Trump would still get away with it 08:20 – Killer whales are actually dolphins (and we’re mad about it) 09:40 – Meg’s moon landing conspiracy theory 11:15 – Did the internet exist in 1969?

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off Wednesday reacting to rising mince prices and chatting vegetarian alternatives, then bring in Cork listener Liam for St. Patrick’s Day-themed “More or Less” beer trivia. They debate a workplace mentoring program, test Dan’s blunt mentoring style with callers, and play Easy Money for $10,000 with two attempts that fall short. The team argues over a controversial Top 5 list of famous Michaels, shares “lame claim to fame” celebrity moments, and revives Flex Factor with odd talents like burping the alphabet and predicting missing puzzle pieces.
