  Speaker 1: I'll get a term. It's a you project. It's Patrick
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: James and Tiffany Anne and Craig Anthony. It's your favorite
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: podcast in the world. You're welcome and here we are
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: for free. Fuck it, We're not going to charge you
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: this time. You're welcome. The giggling Gerdy as my mum
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: would call her, giggling Gerdy. Up in the top left
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: corner on my screen is Tiffany Ann Cook, who doesn't
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: have any typ representation behind her as usual, which is
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: fucking shit. Hi, TIV, Well, she's on the U Project
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: being paid by the U Project. No U Project paraphernal.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: You're behind her?
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Do you know?
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: When it's time to do our Patrick recordings, I get
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: this sensation that I used to get when I was
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: going on a sleep over with my friends when I
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: was in primary school.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Fucking hell, could you expand on that a bit?
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: You know, it's just feel like, you know, I've packed
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: in my sleeping bag and we're about to get up
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: to mischief. When I used to do that, or I
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: used to me and my friend we had she had
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: this massive staircase that went down from the attic. It
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: was carpet and we used to get our sleeping bags
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: and make a sled out of it and go on
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: our knees and slide down. And we used to get
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: in trouble so much. And that's how I feel. I
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: feel like you're my new that friend.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Well, we can just slide down Patrick's METAPHORICX staircase. I
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: might let you two go first, because my knees might
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: not fucking cope.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: Not I'm Patrick, but on my staircase it's a wooden
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: with sharp edges. You would end up with no knees,
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: raw timber, no cup in sight.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: As life up in the sticks, up in the wilderness.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: How is it up there?
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: It's so windy that it would blow the milk out
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: of your coffee.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: It has been blowing a treat.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: I had cuting put on the side of my garage
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: as my big mega rebuild because I'm setting up my
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: Thai cheese studio and a little podcasting area.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: And insulation was there waiting for the cladding.
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: And then suddenly get up by morning and there's insulation
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: all over my neighborhood. It's just blown away. It's got
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: in and under the noggins and everything. Because they put
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: it in, they pack it in pretty tight. You know,
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: they don't justly fit it, they make it snug. Well not,
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: that's because it's everywhere and now everybody's sharing my insulation.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Do you ever think about the etymology of the word
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: noggin because it also it's a colloquialism for head. Yeah,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: how did that come to be?
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: No, you know that's funny.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: The builders were doing their work at one point and
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: they had to go in there for some reason, and
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: we got talking about building, and then I showed them
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: my hands, and I said, this is the hands of
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: somebody who thinks manual labor as a Mexican unionist, because
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: I've done these hands except type on a keyboard and
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: hold the mouse.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Well, you and me, You and me both, mate. I
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: mean I've got the hands like a fucking surgeon. That's
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: why God invented trades people people who are who are better. No,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I mean they're smart, they're like the crab is. The
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: crab is super handy. Like I always say, if you're
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: ever going to get stuck on an island or lost
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: in the wilderness, do it with a crab because he
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: will build you a house by lunchtime, and I will
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: probably kill you and eat you so you know, just
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: pick your friends.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: Choose I'd have to choose two people that I would
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: have to choose you to make sure that the crab
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: stays alive. Hahaps the lifeline perhaps the life line.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's right. Yeah, you did the whole life him,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: didn't you?
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Who are you? You know? You know in American culture
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: they talk about a little bit. They have this this
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: when they're talking about friends, they say, my ride or die.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Have you ever heard of that term? Like Patrick's might
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: ride or die? And it just means like, if I
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: ever need anyone, he's my guy or she's my girl. Right,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: It's like, if I have to go to war, I'm
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: taking Patrick. Now, who's your person? Patrick? Who's your ride
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: or die? Other than us two? Which are obvious choices
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: one and two? Me one tif two? Of course, who's
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: your right or die?
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: That person that because I love this idea of someone
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: that it wouldn't matter if your life was going great
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: or shit, that you could ring them and you know
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: that it doesn't matter what's in it for them, there's
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: nothing in it for them.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: They're going to show up.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: I've got a good maid of mine who actually is
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: now in Europe, and landed this morning and was just
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: texting me at the baggage carry a place because Edie's
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: girlfriend are there and I think Tom's got me at
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: I hit a kangaroo just maybe three months after buying
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: the first brand new carb ever board. Well, Thomas, you
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: can ring at two am in the morning and he
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: will come out with his four wheel drive and rescue you.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: So he's a go to guy. But I've got to
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: say this. A friend of mine, her husband is the
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: most practical person.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: I think a bit like the crab.
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: He told me once he was out in the middle
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: of the bush, got a flat tire and no problem,
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: changes the flat, then got another flat tire. Do you
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: know how he keeps driving? He put grass inside it.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: He just stuffed it inside the tire. You know you
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: get the outer harder layer and hump up bit. Well,
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: he just shoved it full of grass and he was
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: able to drive on it. Who would think of doing that?
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: Not me?
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: I would have been dead and the animals would have
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: been feasting on my rotting carcass by lunchtime the next day.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Who's your right or die? Tif that you'll go to
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: You're in the middle of any situation they're the person
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: for you that you could rely on.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Late Corney Devine. She lives in Perth now, but oh
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: my god, luck she it would be capable of doing
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: absolutely anything anything.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she's a Swiss Army knife of humans.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: There's this movie with Ben Affleck I think it's called
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: The Town Ben Affleck and Jeremy Renner, and there's this
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: scene in it where Ben Affleck walks into this room
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: and Jeremy Renner is sitting in a chair. I think
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: they're either brothers or best mates, and Ben Affleck says
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: something like, Okay, I need you. We've got to go.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: We've got to hurt some people. We've got to hurt
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: some people. It won't be pretty and we can never
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: talk about it ever again. And Jeremy Renner goes, whose
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: car are we taking? I'm like, I love that. I'm
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: not one for violence, but I just love that scene.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: All right, mate, let's talk about let's talk about the
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: stuff that you're here for. What do you want to
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: enlighten us with today?
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: I need to ask you all to remove your phones
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: from the room. Can you just take them out and
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: hide them somewhere out of earshot?
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: This is really important.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: Because we don't want anybody listening to what we're talking about.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: I'll wait a minute, run, don't we I.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Was actually about to walk out and put my phone
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: out on the fucking stairs.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: I saw you're reaching for it.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm holding it. I'm like, oh, okay.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: Well, we've all been in this situation where we've been
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: with people and they've said, oh, I was using my phone.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: I was talking to people the other day, and all
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: of a sudden, when I got onto my phone, ads
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: start serving up on things we were talking about. I've
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: never searched for them before, but I'm talking about cladding.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: All of a sudden, I'm getting ads for cladding. I'm
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: talking about a new car, Suddenly ads for new cars.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Now it's you know, it wasn't an urban myth. Have
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: you had that happen to you before, Suddenly ads coming up? Well,
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: evidently this is a one of Facebook's major partners. So
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: an advertising agency has reported admitted that they actually listen
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: to people and spy on their conversations through smartphones, and
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: they curate ads based on the conversations. Now, this is
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: it's not just a random kind of article that was published.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: And the thing is that when you think about it,
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: when you give access to an app on your phone,
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: you have the option to say, give access to my
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: photos and microphones while I'm using the phone.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: You know, when you give permission.
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: So technically, yes, if you've given permission to Facebook and
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: Instagram to access your microphone and photos, then that's what
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: the go is.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: But this is a new report.
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: It's from an organization called four oho four Media and
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: they reckon. They've got a hold of documents that were
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: leaked to them and one of their reporters, and it's
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: called active Listening and it's software that uses they know AI.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: We talk about AI all the time, but it captures.
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: Real time what they call intent data by listening to conversations.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: This is a frightening thought. I mean, I don't actually
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: have Facebook on my phone. I do have Insta though,
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: so potentially they still could be listening. But isn't that
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: a really frightening prospect that your phones could be spying
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: on you?
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Think about also yet, one fucking yes, Patrick, Two, Like,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: how many of us read the terms and terms of agreement?
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Like when it's like I buy a new app, right
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: and there's seventy two pages of like agree tick next,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: like you don't know what you just agreed to. I'd
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: love the There's probably no actual real data on how
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: many people read that shit go through it, and even
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: if you did read it, how much would you totally understand?
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: But I guess we are unwittingly be becoming accomplices in
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: they're endeavors to spy on us because we accept it.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: And we give it away for free. Because we're getting
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: it for free. You know, use Google, it's free, we
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: use Facebook, it's free. So all of these features and
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: all of these big multi trillion dollar companies are giving
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: us this stuff for free.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: There's got to be a payoff somewhere.
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: So the leaked documents evidently from an organization called the
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: Cox Media Group and the TV Radio Giant, but their
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: clients include Facebook, Amazon, Google, so the big advertising trio
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: going on there. So it does make you really wonder
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: and I don't know, a bit paranoid. We should turn
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: our phones off regularly, and that's a good thing, even
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: from an operational perspective, that it's good to turn your
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: phones off and on on a regular basis as well,
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: But it's and I mean powering it down, not just
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: turning it off and on powering. It's another way to
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: apply all the fixes and all the software updates as well.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: You need to turn your phone off to do that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: But yeah, so there you go. Folks, room careful what
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: you're saying.
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: If you happen to be working for Asio, you might
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: want to just consider getting a dumb phone, not a smartphone.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Can I share an anecdote that's it's related, but it's not. Yeah,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: So here's here's my story. Notice I didn't wait for
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: permission from either from of you, but thank you. So
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: now this is going to sound like I'm making it up,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: but this is true. This is absolutely hand on heart true.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: So not yesterday, the day before I was talking to
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I was on the phone talking to a friend of mine, Russ,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: who you both know. Russ my friend, and we were
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: talking about the perception of value. Like one of my
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: just little quirky fascinations is the psychology of value. How
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: people will pay, you know, ten thousand dollars for a
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: sketch that some person did on a surveyette because that
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: person's famous. But I could do a relatively brilliant piece
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: of art that people wouldn't pay one hundred bucks for
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: because I'm not an artist, you know, so that whole
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: the psychology of oh but you know, and we're talking
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: about this, and I said, and we're talking about like
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: even down to so if Tiff goes and does a
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: corporate event, So TIFF's profile and brand has grown, the
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: perception of value around her has grown in the last
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: few years since she's gone from not doing corporate to
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: doing corporate. She's getting bigger and better, more well known,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: more in demand. So her hourly rate is going up. Now,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: her hourly rate might go up exponentially, like times five,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: while her skill goes up times two, right, which is
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: this is normal? And I was giving this example to
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Russ and I said, look, imagine, imagine if Banksy. You
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: two know who Banksy the artist is.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, of course absolutely.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: If do you know who banks is, it doesn't matter.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: So Patrick and a lot of our listeners do. So
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: he's a very well known kind of street artist, and
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: no one knows who he is. And anyway, so I said,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: imagine if I did a Banksye and it was it
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: was identical, like, let's just say it was the same painting.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: And so Banksy did a Banksy and then I did
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: one and it was on the same material and it
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: was identical, and people would pay one hundred grand for
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Banksy's banksy, but they wouldn't pay one hundred bucks for
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: my banksy.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: Right to clean it off exactly.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Anyway, we're having this conversation about, you know, perception of
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: value and what people think they're getting and what they'll
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: pay for. So it's what they think they're getting versus
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: what they're getting. Now, while I'm on the phone to
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: get I can hear a chime a message, and I'm like, oh,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: it's from the Crab. Of course, the Crab sends me
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: fifty things a day, usually conspiracy theories. But anyway, I
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: get off the phone and I go, this is not
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: a fucking word of a lie. I get off my
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: phone and the crabs sent me this thing. And it's
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: about this dude. It's a true story. I've got the video.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: I can send it to both you. It's about this
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: guy at this it's almost like a Victoria market thing
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: where there's this market. There's this old guy and he's
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: got this stall and he's selling in inverted Comma's original bankses. Right,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: so he's got about twenty Banksies and he's selling them
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: all for like sixty bucks each, and people are coming
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: along and like not fucking real, and they're haggling with him.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: They look good but and you know, so this lady
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: bought a couple for thirty dollars each. She bargained him down,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: and as it turned out, it was an experiment that
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: himself had organized. And they were all authentic bankses, right,
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: So all of the art was original and authentic. But
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: because of the context, which is an old bloke at
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: a market and he was telling everyone these are real,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: these are authentic, nobody believed him. Nobody would pay for them.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: And then this lady who happened to be I think
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: from New Zealand, she bought the two for thirty dollars each.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: She sold each of those thirty dollars purchases for one
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars Eachah. Now that tells you now that
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: that's what fucking fascinates me about the human brain, the
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: mind perception value. What you think, You've literally got a
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: real Banksy that you can buy for sixty dollars and
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: you're saying no. Yet the other person who thinks that it
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: is a real banks he might think it's a bargain
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: for fifty thousand dollars. So fucking how amazing is that?
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: And that was while I was on the phone to
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Russ talking about fraudulent banks. Is that the crab sent that?
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I went to the gym and I told him. He's like,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: that's fucking I go. I don't.
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: I can't even explain that. That's because the crab is
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: listening in. He's obviously got spywear on your phone and
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: he just listens to it.
• 16:20

• 17:29
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm lucky, I've got about I don't have
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: heaps of friends, I reckon, I have ten good friends
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: in the world, like really good. And then there's a
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: big dropper. Yeah, but I'm happy with my ten.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: I'm wondering where Tiff and.

  Speaker 1: many spots left. What about nine?
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Tip? What did you get to nine?
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: And it's you or me?
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: Here for this spot?
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Should unscrewed, youre bastards.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Let's keep moving forward.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Talking about money and value and all that sort of stuff.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: There's an interesting article I read this week about why
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: Australians are falling victim to subscription traps. So while I
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: was sitting waiting for the show to start, I jumped
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: into my bank account, and I thought, how many things
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: have I subscribed to? And I'm not talking about work
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: related stuff, this is just social stuff. And because I
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: watched TV or streaming, maybe I'm lucky to watch two
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: nights a week.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty busy.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: I don't turn the TV on it mainly just the weekends.
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: Or I flick through a bit of YouTube. And so
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: I looked through my subscriptions Prime Paramount, Amazon, YouTube, Apple
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: Plus and Order book Right seventy dollars ninety five. So
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: seventy one bucks a month is going to services where
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: I may use one of them all week. And the
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: problem is, see, I've done it well. I do a
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: bit of sharing with some friends. I'm later I shouldn't
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: admit that, should I? But the problem is I don't
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: want to drop off because I want Disney through one
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: of my friends, and she supplies Disney, and my brother
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: and sister in law provide Netflix. So we do a
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: spot for the other services, so I feel obliged not
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: to cancel them because other people are allying them.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: So other people are.
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: Using my subscriptions and I don't use them because I
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: want to use their subscriptions that I don't use.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: I think you just admitted to a I'm just writing
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: down mine. I've got Amazon, Netflix, Stan, Apple, Audible Chat
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: GPT four is like twenty five a month or something,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: and that's off. That's six off the top of my head.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: What about YouTube?
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I've got the most intense spreadsheet of my life
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: that tells me every dollar I earn. Ever, it's color
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: coded in categories, whether it's a business subscription or a
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: life subscription. I've got Netflix and Audible. Netflix comes on
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: and off throughout the year. It's currently on, and the
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: rest of my subscriptions are all under the business category.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: So I'm pretty good, maybe because I don't have a lie.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: I don't watch the Netflix, but I do this in
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: Audible a lot.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, me too.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: You know the moment that I get rid of it,
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: then I want to watch something and I'm like ill.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Just it's like the gym membership that you're always I know,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not going at the moment, but I'll be going soon,
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: you know, Jim Owners rely on that, that idea that
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: people have that they'll be back at the gym soon.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: It's not today, but it'll be soon. So I'll keep
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: paying my subscription calories.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: Knowing you have a subscription to the gym.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: No gim owner wants all their members to turn up
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: at once.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: I remember seeing this sign out the front of Snap
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: where I train, and it said something like it was
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: trying to get people through the door, and it was like,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: thinking about getting in shape doesn't actually burn any calories
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: or something like that, but ironically it does. Cognition is
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: the most expensive like energy consumer. It's like twenty percent
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: of our energy per day goes on cognitions. So the brain,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: which weighs about one point three kilos, think about that. That's,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe one and a half percent of a
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: typical person's weight, one and a half percent, and it
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: uses twenty percent of our energy. That's a very expensive
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: data processor.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: Certainly is certainly is, Hey, Patrick.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: It can be less interesting. I know Patrick Sice. Everyone.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Let me describe Patrick. Everyone. He's got his hands behind
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: his head with his eyes glazed. He's reading something and
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: then it comes in. I didn't he didn't pay attention to.
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: I was thinking that I need to exercise more because
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: to make up for the less brain work.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: Oh that is funny.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: I was just thinking people.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: Like this, people like this show. I wonder why it's
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: so fucking people go, oh you, Tif and Patrick, that's
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: the favorite. I'm like, why not.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: Using any calories listening? Are they?
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: No? No? Sorry, mate, go ahead.
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: So I was getting back to the subscriptions, and I
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: just it made me realize that if you're really canny
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: about this, because I've got a friend of mine, what
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: they do is they drop in and drop out and
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: they binge, so they'll drop out of the membership, they'll
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: sign up again, get a free month or a free fortnight,
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: binge for that fortnight, and then turn it off and
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: they pay nothing And here am I and here are
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: we or forking out like you know, one hundred bucks
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: a month.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: But I think you need to be a bit smarter.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: I guess about those subscriptions because it can bite you
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: in the pocket.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: And while everyone's trying to tighten the belt.
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: A little bit, I thought it was a really good
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: idea to maybe have a bit of a look, set
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: up a spreadsheet. So I did a spreadsheet. I'm pretty
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: proud of myself. TIF, you'd be proud of me. It's
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: color coated as well. The line figure is in green
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: with red.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: Letters, So there you go. That stands out.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: What's the one thing that each of you knowingly waste
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: money on? And by waste money, I just mean spend
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: money on something that it maybe it gives you joy,
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: but you don't need it. It's like, what's the what's
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: the like? For me? Clearly it's fucking motorbikes, right, I
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: just have historically waste wasted stupid money on things I
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: often don't ride. What about you, tif, what's your what's
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: your number one money wasted?
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: I'd say, well, that motorbike I bought hits the list.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: But aside from that, I do like to eat out.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: So when I eat out, like breakfast in that I
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: don't go for the cheapest just to be you know,
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: because I love eating. I think I've always invested in
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: eating out.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: I love it. Well, that's that's not a waste though,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: because it gives you joy.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's always with people.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I think that's a good investment. What about you, Patrick.
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: James, I'm a bit of a sucker for gadgets, you know,
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: tooth cleaning stuff.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: That's on the list.
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: Just for those people who don't remember I talk tip
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: into buying the miracle bloody teeth whitening cleaning thirty seconds
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: the top and bottom.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: And it was shit, wasn't it.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: Appreciate only sixty bucks.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Actually, I might only cost me thirty bucks. Now.
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: Look, I'm a bit of a sucker for gadgets. I
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: love gadgets. But the other thing that's I feel really
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: funny admitting this. I bought a fountain pen in Europe
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: for a thousand. In your ows, it's not yeah, yeah, that's.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Fountain peen thousand and that's like two thousand Australian dollars right.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: A little bit less, but yeah close. Yeah.
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: Well what had happened was I've got some free accommodation
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: while I was traveling. I had all these euros burning
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: a hole in my pocket, and a friend of mine
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: who really loves to encourage me to buy stuff, and
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: I was at the airport and I saw I fell
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: in love with this pen.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: It was. It's a beautiful, beautiful, handcrafted fountain pen. It
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: was a limited release, one of only twenty five. And
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: I love writing with a fountain pen. I write with
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: one every day. It's you know, I have a month
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: long fountain pen. And anyway, so yeah, so I bought
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: a pen.
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: It was probably the most frivolous act of spending extreme
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: spending up everyone.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: All right, let's let's do a one eighty on that,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: and let's go, what's the thing that you bought that
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: could have potentially been shit which turned out to be
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: a great investment, like the one where it might have
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: been just something you bought and you went, fuck, this
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: is really good. It only I'm actually throwing myself under
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: the bus here. But Tiff bought me these gear thing is,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: which I don't have in at the moment. Sorry, Tiff,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: I just forgot. But I think they're only like thirty
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: bucks or something, Thank you, Tiff. But they're really fucking good,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: like but thirty dollars a really good investment. So yeah,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: I'm very I didn't even pay for those, so for me,
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: that was zero, so fucking best of all time? Thanks TIV.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: What about you, Patrick?
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: I was trying to think of stuff that hasn't really
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: cost a lot of money, that brings a lot of
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: joy or is really useful.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm struggling a little bit. I don't know.
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: I tend to As I said, gadgets are such a
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: big part of my spend. I did buy something, you know,
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: I get sucked into stuff all the time. I bought
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: a thing called a rock block once on one of
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: those crowdfunding websites, and what it was was a rectangle.
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: It was a record player, but instead of you putting
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: the vinyl on top, you know, and a needle on
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: top and play a record normally, it was like a
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: little car with a needle with a Bluetooth connection and
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: it drove around the record.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: OK when you said rock block, I thought you said
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: something else. But okay, okay, tipfoot about you.
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: Mine is this bad boy all right here? Remarkable. It
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: was cost me a fortune. It was like seven hundred
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: bucks or something. But I love I loved it. I
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: love it.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Tell people what we'll tell people what it is and
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: the application because maybe someone needs Do you know who
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: told me yesterday? She the exact same words were Karly Taylor.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: She got one from Paul for I think her birthday
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: and she absolutely loves it.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: It's just a it's a digital notebook and or a
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: digital paper. I don't know what you call it, but
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: ink ink yeah, and no other functions. So not an iPad,
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: no notifications, no bullshit. It just replaces a pen and paper.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: Book.
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: It's brilliant. It's so good, but.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: People are gone, So what why don't I just use
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: a pen and paper. I think you're not telling the
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: whole story.
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: Well, because you don't have to. You don't have shit everywhere.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: You can file it away if you can, you can
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: pay it.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: But you're not telling people that you can upload it
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: and stuff. Right.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: Well, I was getting to that but interrupting you. If
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: you pay the subscription, which I did for a while
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: and then I stopped, you can email directly from it.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: You can change your handwriting into text. It's got different
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: formats and backgrounds. And I have got an email yesterday
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: talking about some exciting new release which I didn't read
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: because I still love the one I've got and I
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: don't want to get sucked into buying something new. But
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: they've probably innovated it further. Now I've got the Remarkable too,
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: but for just a simple basic thing that seems really
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: expensive for what you're getting. Like as soon as I
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: got I thought I'm going to have buyer's remorse, but
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure there was a pretty lengthy return policy,
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: which is why I got it. And as soon as
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: I got it, I went, this is a just to
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: have a clean desk, not having bits of paper everywhere
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: for all your note taking so good.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: I'm going to shut up after this and let Patrick
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: run his show because it's his show. But my last thing,
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: which I didn't buy either, my mum bought. Now. This
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: is the woman who bought me a concrete gorilla once
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: right to put in my garden, So she's pretty bad
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: at choosing shit. By the way, that concrete gorilla that
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: had a flat bottom weighed about fucking ten k's so
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: it sat in the bamboo for a while. Then I
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: think I gave it away. But Mary bought me a backscratcher,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: which is essentially like you know the area on your
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: car that you extend the old fashion ones. So it's
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: got a scratchy like little handle on one end and
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: it goes from about six inches to about two feet
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: or whatever that is one hundred and fifty mil to
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: like six hundred milk. Because I'm a bit of a
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: Neanderthal and I cannot scratch in between my shoulder blades.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: It's the perfect gift. It's the gift that keeps on.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: I use that motherfucker every day because it's either that
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: or rub up against a tree and I don't have
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: any trees inside.
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: Hey, have you ever used an orgasmotron? Studdn silence el,
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: I'm usually the one. No, I know what is an orgasmotron.
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: It's if you can imagine like these wires that basically
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: sit on a handle and you put it over your
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: head and move it up and down and it just
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: rubs and massages your head.
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: Have you seen it?
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: I'm sure you've seen them that There's got lots of
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: little filaments on them and they form like a claw
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: and you just shit down over your head and you
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: move it up and down and it runs through the
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: people who've got hair, and it runs through it just
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: massages your head. It was a I think that it
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: was called the brand was called a gaze Matron.
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: I thought.
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to remember where I bought it from. And
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: it's an amazing head massage.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: It is a studio album by It's an album by
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: Motorhead or gas Matron.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: Tried typing all Gazmetron head massage or.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Gas Matron head. This is great fucking listening for our listeners.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: This is sorry everyone. Okay, yeah, there's a mish Okay,
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: there's like five dollar ones twenty dollars ones. All there's
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: battery operated ones. Okay, Oh there are ones with lights
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: on them too. Okay, now, all right, the mind boggers.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: I love a good massage. I'm a massage slut, so
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: I might have to invest in one of those.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: Especially, get the cheap one, the five, all the one.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: You'll be right whatever, I'll just all right. I wonder
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: if they have sizes just to fit your head. Just think,
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: what are you saying?
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: I reckon your head's got my mister potato head in
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: size fits all?
• 32:08
  Speaker 7: All right, move on, I think I look, while we're
• 32:15
  Speaker 7: talking about money and all that sort of stuff, scamming,
• 32:17
  Speaker 7: I picked up on a scam recently where people are
• 32:21
  Speaker 7: putting fake listings on like your Airbnb type platforms, and
• 32:26
  Speaker 7: it kind of stands to.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Reason it's probably not a bad idea to contact people
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: directly once you've made a booking, because what scammers are
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: doing is they're taking all the images and just reposting
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: the property online and getting people to pay their deposit
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: and then just taking the money because it's so yeah.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: It's is just getting a slipperer and slipperier slope, isn't that, mate?
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So just It's one of those be wary when
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: you're booking. Always good to talk to people. I tend
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: to like to contact people directly when you know I'm
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: booking stuff. But I'm just thinking that it's not over
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: the phone. You do use the messaging system in the app,
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: don't you.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: So I got off to do a speaking gig in
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: South Africa, like all expenses paid, blah blah blah, we'll
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: fly and I'm like cool, and they're like, I said, yeah, okay,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: I'm interested. Let's do a zoom call. Nah nothing, Yeah,
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: I'm sure. So like, let's set up a zoom call
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: so we can chat and crickets. Now, tell me about
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: that was only the week before last. Tell me about
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: which reminds me of my childhood. Gen Z being obsessed
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: with buying cassette tapes.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: Oh, this is so funny because of course gen z
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: is don't know how to use a rotary phone, they
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: don't know how to use vinyl, they don't know how
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: to use cassette players.
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: But they're getting all retro interested and so the funny
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: story the article I read was this young girl put
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: on a cassette and then wanted to skip through to
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: a track and thought, how do I get to the
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: next track because it's all on the loop.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: So I just chuckle to myself.
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: So it's we take a lot of the stuff for
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: granted to those of us who you know, lived life
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: of cassette players and doing mixtapes and all that sort
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: of stuff, But nowadays used to just send someone a
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: Spotify playlist, but to go from you know, song one
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: on the album to the last song on the album,
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: you had to fast forward. And it's just not computing
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: for young people who are used to just skipping and
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: pushing and jumping from one thing to another, and it
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: just tickle them a fancy that you know, retros come back.
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: If you can use it, you've got to go back
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: to Grandpa to ask how to use it.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Isn't it funny? How like for maybe one hundred years
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: we had vinyl, and then it just rocketed from that
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: to you know, cassettes to blue was it blue whatever?
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Then we had the CDs. That's right, Hey, I'm watching
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: this show speaking of technology, which David Gillespie recommended. Just
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: from the point of view of looking at it's basically
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: like stepping into a time capsule. So there's a show
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: called Friday Night Lights and it starts. The first season
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: is two thousand and six, and it's have set in
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: this little town with this high high school football team,
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: which is a big deal, and all the myriad of
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: social constructs around that and all the fucking families and
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: relationships and coaching. But it's two thousand, so it's not
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: set in two thousand and six. It's actually filmed in
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: two thousand and six, so season one is eighteen years old, right,
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: So they're all using these flip phones and they've got iPods,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: and they think they're fucking living in the future with
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: their iPod and their flip phone. So there's no I think,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: was it two thousand and eight Patrick the first iPhone?
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: Yep?
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So I think in season two or three, or
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: as I Nellie said, Susan two or three where one
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: of the kids gets an iPhone. But it's just funny
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: watching stuff happen where there's all this stuff going on
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: and nobody's got a phone out filming it, Whereas if
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: it was teenagers now and something was happening, everything would
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: be would be being filmed on their smartphone.
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: We'll talking about being filmed on smartphones and privacy. I
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: didn't realize this because they've only started introducing seat belt
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: cameras and phone cameras so that you can detect if
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: a person who's driving a car and hasn't got a
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: seat belt on and is using a phone. But to
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: do that, what they do is they mount the cameras
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: really high and they look down into the car. Well,
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: there are privacy concerns because you know people go for
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: a bit of a scratch or other thing and so.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Thing, what's the other thing? I know, Sorry, I'm just
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: looking for clarity for the listeners. Gives a story.
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: Look, our listeners have active imaginations.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: They can work it out for themselves.
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: So the use of these mobile detection and seat belt
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: cameras and particularly they start off in Queensland, but they've
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: raised in the Banana state, I think four hundred and
• 37:28
  Speaker 4: nineteen million dollars in revenue since they were introduced.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: So it's a fair bit of money that's being churned out.
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: But our privacy commissions there are saying, well, you know,
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: we know it's illegal, but this concerns because when they
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: take the photos detects whether or not it thinks that
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: they're wearing a seat belt or they're using a phone,
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: but then a human person, an operator has to then
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: grab that photo and verify whether there was an infringement.
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: The question is it's believed that some people might be
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: shuffling those photos aside.
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: They're not just looking and then throwing away.
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: They're kind of holding onto the photos and they have
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: their little black box of oh, there's some funny photos
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: we might send out to our friends, that sort of thing.
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: So that's the concern is there's no legislation in place
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: to protect the privacy of people. If they're using humans
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: for oversight to make sure that the find is justified,
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: then there potentially could be privacy concerns because people could
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: be doing stuff in the car that is not directly
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: related to using a phone or a seat belt.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: No, well, I can't think of anything but thanks. But
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: it reminds me of the old days, Patrick Jones, when
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: you and I were kids and Tiff was just a
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: twinkle of a mum's eye, where we would take a
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: role of film to be developed, and then the people
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: at the developing places would look at our fucking photos.
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: I wonder how many copies of some photos got fucking
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: surreptitiously made and then just put in the old blokes pocket.
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: And I tell you that one of the best photos
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: of me as a kid that I loved the most
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: because of the thought behind it is there was when
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: Mum passed away, I grabbed all of our family photos
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: that were all in a box, you know, it's like
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: the albums with their stick on the place over the
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: top of them, and I.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: Had them all scanned.
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: I had one of my staff and a couple of
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: people that, you know, a couple of guys that were
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: working after school, and I said, right, we're going to
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: scan every single photo high resolution share it with the family.
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: And then I found this photo and it was me
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: just standing at a chemist with like rows of films
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: behind me, and it's like, what a weird photo of
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: me just standing there with a green shirt, just you know,
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: instant kind of at the shot. And then it occurred
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: to me, you know what it was Mum's gone to
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: take the camera in to take the photos and realized
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: there was one more exposure left on the camera. So
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: she's just got turned around and said, right, geez, and
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: that was it. So this random photograph that she must
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: have taken when she was getting the film developed when
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: she realized there was one photo left and then.
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: There's me's danting at the chemeras looking like an idiot.
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: How old are you in that photo?
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: Maybe part of me? Maybe eleven?
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: I think I think you should do I think that
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: the story around that photo is worth doing something with
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: that photo because that is a really especially because your
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: mum's not here anymore and there's never going to be
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: a version of that again. That's such a good story.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: I would like to say that do you still have
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: that photo?
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: I will grab it for you and I'll send it
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: to you because it's it's actually a super cute photo,
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: but it's you know, the in situus situation, and it
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: really and because mum had already passed away, and that
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: was the conclusion that I'd come to, it just made
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: perfect sense that it was the twenty four exposure, twenty
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: three shots have been taken and the person said, oh,
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: you've got one more shot left on the camera, so
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: she's just turned around and taken a shot.
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: It's cute, isn't it.
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: I think you should put that in the typ Facebook group.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Can you do that?
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: I will, I'll find it for you, I'll and I'll
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: send it off to post or I'll post it.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: I'll give it the Tiff and Chicken post it for me.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be great. All right?
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: Moving along, my favorite band.
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: One of my favorite bands is a band out of
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: Las Vegas called Imagine Dragons, and you probably if you
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: don't know them, you would have heard of their songs.
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: They've got millions of songs that have been in movies
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: and the like. But they're going to become the very
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: first band in history to have one of their songs
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: played from the Moon. Now they're not going to the
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: moon and doing a live concert tour or anything, but yeah,
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: I just thought i'd clarify.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: That I'm just not good because I was thinking of
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: might get a.
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: So what they're going to do.
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: It's part of the Lone Star Freedom Mission and they're
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: going to be flying with to the Lunar Pole and
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: then they're going to broadcast one of their songs. And
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: the reason they they picked this particular song, it's called
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: Children of the Sky.
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: It's a really great song if you get a chance
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: to listen.
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: It was a song that was composed specifically for a
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: game that was a sci fi kind of space adventure game.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: So it was an amazing, really really great game. Great
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: great game to play because it was one of those what.
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: They call an open world game where you could travel
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: around and you fly from planet to planet. And the
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: video clip that went with it is so inspirationally beautiful
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: and it's really lovely. It shows a young kid as
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: they grow up and then they go into space. It's
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: really great. So I think it starts off with the
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: kid looking up at a rocket being launched and then
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: eventually he becomes an astronaut, and that's the gist of
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: the video clip with this great soundtrack behind it. But
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: the people who are behind the mission are saying that
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: they want to inspire the next generation of kids to
• 42:52
  Speaker 4: be excited about the future of space and technology, and
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: that's why they chose Children of the Sky. And so
• 42:58
  Speaker 4: they've never performed the song live, and they're going to
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: on October twenty seven, they're going to perform the song
• 43:04
  Speaker 4: for the very first time live. They're not included in
• 43:07
  Speaker 4: their recent tour for some reason. And now that they've
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: announced that they're going to be playing it from the
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: Moon that now they're going to do the song live
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: is at this upcoming concert in Los Angeles, and I
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: just it was kind of cool.
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: I like that kind of nerdy stuff.
• 43:21
  Speaker 4: It's interesting and fun and just happened to be one
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: of my favorite songs as well from one.
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: Of your favorite Why am I not surprised that you
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: love a band called Imagine Dragons. I'm not even sure
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: that you love the music. I think you just love
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: the name either.
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: The music's pretty good. I've been to two of their concerts.
• 43:40
  Speaker 4: I whenever they tour in Australia, I always make a
• 43:43
  Speaker 4: point to go and watch them play. In the first
• 43:45
  Speaker 4: concert I went to, I was in the mosh pit
• 43:47
  Speaker 4: and it was so loud.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: My clothes were vibrating. You know. My T shirt was
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: just moving forward and backward.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: Now taking a left turn. We revisit electric Is probably
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: every third or fourth episode. But China claims the world's
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: fastest charging av and of course, one of the problems
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: complaints I guess that people have is just the impracticality
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: of using electricity as a funel source, because you know,
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: it takes so long to fill your car so to speak.
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, a company called Zeka. They claim that the new
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: electric EV batteries charged faster than all of the other rivals,
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: the byds and the Tesla's. They say they can go
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: from ten to eighty percent capacity in ten and a
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: half minutes.
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: That's a game changer for a lot of people.
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: Isn't it to be able to give yourself a range
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: of an extra three or four hundred kilometers in just
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: ten minutes. That's pretty massive. That to me, particularly people
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: in Australia is a game changer. And you pointed out
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: I think in a couple of shows ago that Chinese
• 44:53
  Speaker 4: cars are really flooding the market at the moment, and
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: if you can get a decent Chinese electric car with
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: a range like that that can charge up so quickly,
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: that would be phenomenal.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, well, I mean it's just I think the
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: unknown around or there's a couple, but the Chinese cars
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: are becoming better and better. Like I don't own one,
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: but I wentn't looked at when I was looking for
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: cars a car, I went and looked at quite a few,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: and I've got to say, the build quality and everything
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: is amazing. Like people go, oh, Chinese, everyone it says
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: Chinese crap. Most of the people that I've spoken to
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: have never driven one or owned one. And while historically
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: they have had some lemons, as did Korea, when they
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: started pushing out Kia and Hayundai, as did Japan, when
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: they started pushing out Toyota and Masada, as did everyone,
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: so did America. So did you know Italy with the
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: Alpha Romeo. There's a lot of shit cars, but overall
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: everything is becoming better and better, and there's not many.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: There's not many cars these days that are bad because
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: if you're producing bad stuff in a time when vehicles
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: have never been more competitive, you're not going to last.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: So but an interesting thing around this, and I'll shut
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: up after this, is that in Canada and I think
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: the US definitely, in Canada, there's one hundred percent tariff,
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: so if it comes in or tax, so if it's
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: coming in and it's thirty thousand dollars car, it's now
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: sixty thousand dollars. So this is one of the things
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: I hope the Australian government doesn't because we don't have
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: an Australian manufacturer anymore. But what it means is for
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: the end, I'm not particularly partial to any particular nation
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: in terms of car building, but what it means is now,
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: like just from me on Nepean Highway is an MGD,
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: so in Brighton so they're selling brand new, pretty fucking
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: good cars for under thirty grand with a ten year warranty. Now,
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: if you're someone who really struggles financially to be able
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: to buy a new car, you lease it over five years.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: It might cost you one hundred bucks or one hundred
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: and twenty bucks a week maybe, But you've got a
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: brand new car with ten years warranty. I mean for
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: some people that that is speaking of game changing. You know,
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: that's a game changer.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: I just got to cut out all of my subscriptions
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: and I could afford.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: It exactly exactly. You've got a good car. All right,
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: Let's do two more stories and wind up over one.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: You tell us where you want to go.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: Did we talk about the space balloon the last time
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: we caught up? I don't know we did. Did we?
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: I don't think we did. We may have touched on something, yeah,
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: but let's look, I'm the host and I can't remember,
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: so I can, but then I'm sixty So how.
• 47:56
  Speaker 4: This is super exciting because they're talking about launching flights
• 48:02
  Speaker 4: in twenty twenty six. It's the Halo Space is the
• 48:05
  Speaker 4: name of the company, and effectively it's a high tech
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: hot air balloon ish type thing that will take you
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: all the way to the stratosphere, so right on the
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: boundary of space. So you get balloon, you strap yourself in,
• 48:21
  Speaker 4: it goes up up. They're going to leave in Saudi
• 48:25
  Speaker 4: Arabia in a space balloon. And look, it's only you know,
• 48:29
  Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty thousand euro, which is about two
• 48:33
  Speaker 4: hundred and fifty thousand Australian dollars. It'll go up about
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: thirty five kilometers. But to me, I mean, you you're
• 48:39
  Speaker 4: gonna get a bloody good view of the Earth, aren't
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: you at that height?
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: And Google at Google Google three, Like, I've got a
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: great view of the Earth on my phone. It's my
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: bloody screensaver. One hundred what is it, two hundred and
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: fifty grand?
• 48:56
  Speaker 4: Nah, about two hundred and fifty I think's what about
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty euro?
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: But you know, I mean, and this is this is
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: like we're talking about perception and value and context. Like
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: for some people that would be the highlight of their life, right,
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: that would be some people would pretty much give up
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: everything to have that experience, to go to in inverted
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: commas space in the stratosphere. Yeah, but not utif with
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: that interest you.
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, nope, not a bit.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: No, Patrick, If I went Patrick, you could be on board.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: It's going to cost you thirty grand.
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: On thirty grand, yeah, I'll do it, really, yeah, thirty grand.
• 49:34
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't even question it. I mean one hundred and well,
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: two hundred and fifty thousand. Of course it's never going
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: to happen. But if it was thirty k, I'd sign
• 49:41
  Speaker 4: up tomorrow.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: Well, space travelers, just around the corner and buy around
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: the corner, I mean twenty to thirty years.
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: But you know, maybe I think my because I think
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: we've spoken about this.
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: I have two bucket lists.
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: I have the achievable bucket list and the bucket list
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: that's never going to happen. And the bucket list's never
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: going to happen is walking on the moon, Okay, so
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: that's not going to happen and listening to a major
• 50:05
  Speaker 4: dragon's evidently, and the other one is my general you know,
• 50:09
  Speaker 4: I I'd like to go to Iceland and I'd like
• 50:12
  Speaker 4: to go to Paris, you know, those sorts of things
• 50:15
  Speaker 4: that are on that that you know, the standard bucket
• 50:17
  Speaker 4: list that you can achieve. So yeah, anyway, apparently apparently Reikiavic,
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: which is the capital of Iceland, is fucking amazing.
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: One of my friends, so Vinn, my mate, his kid Laura,
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: shout out. She went there kind of and fucking fell
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: in love with it. Like a lot of people who
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: go to Iceland, it's quite a special place, I think,
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: and fuck all, I think, tif can you just have
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: a look at the population of Iceland. I feel like
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: it's five hundred thousand or less, like it's not many
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: people in a very vast expanse.
• 50:52
  Speaker 4: When I was in primary school, I think it might
• 50:54
  Speaker 4: have been grade five, I saw a magazine that had
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: a photograph of the Aurora borealis and that's what sparked
• 51:00
  Speaker 4: my interest, because of course going to Iceland is one
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: of those locations where you can see it.
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: You get just get the number tien.
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: What says three hundred and eighty one thousand, but then
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: it says that's twenty twenty.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: Two yeah less, yeah, yeah, and Rakie pick is like
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: most of that or half of that or something?
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: What are they the northern lights or something?
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: There is that in all then lights? Yeah? Or some
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: ounce and almos fire.
• 51:27
  Speaker 4: I took a trip to the Far Northern Territories of
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: Canada because you can see them up there as well.
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: And my family, my sister in law and my brother
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: live in Canada.
• 51:36
  Speaker 4: And I went up as far as I could go,
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: so it was two hundred k's out of the Arctic Circle.
• 51:42
  Speaker 4: And I was there for four days and it was overcards.
• 51:46
  Speaker 4: For four days, I couldn't see Jack. And then the
• 51:51
  Speaker 4: next week I left to go home and they had
• 51:53
  Speaker 4: the best aurora display. It was all the way down
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: to the Prairies and Alberta and Gallghery.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: So I missed it.
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: So I mean, I did take some photos and I
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: think I sent them to you when we had the
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: Aurora Australis recently here. But I think I'd love to
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: go to somewhere, you know, like Iceland and check it out.
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: That would be pretty cool, wuldn't it.
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: And you know what else would be pretty cool is
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: that if you got trapped out in the middle of
• 52:17
  Speaker 4: nowhere and you needed to call for help, Elon Musk
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: might come to the rescue.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: Why go on?
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: Okay, So he's now This week there were a.
• 52:29
  Speaker 4: Couple of articles saying that he's going to offer free starlink.
• 52:33
  Speaker 4: So Starlink is his satellite based Internet service. He's going
• 52:37
  Speaker 4: to offer free stylink for people stranded in the wilderness.
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: Now that that actually could be useful for me because
• 52:43
  Speaker 4: there are black spots all the way through where I live.
• 52:47
  Speaker 4: My phone drops out constantly, and of course three G
• 52:50
  Speaker 4: is being dropped out in Australia really really soon. Telstranoptus
• 52:54
  Speaker 4: are dropping three G, which means a lot of people
• 52:55
  Speaker 4: living in rural areas could suddenly find themselves without phone coverage.
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: You know what's funny is as you were talking about
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: black spots and signal dropping out, you dropped out momentarily,
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: Patrick James, Patrick, James Bonello, Tiffany and Cook. It's always fabulous, Patrick.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: How can people connect with you? Stay at your joint,
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: come and help you collect the insulation from the adjoining
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: adjacent paddocks and help you rebuild. How can people get
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: involved on Planet?
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: You Planet?

• 54:07
  Speaker 1: Speaking of the toilet in the middle of the night,
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: when you have a wee, do you just stand there
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: in the dark and hope it goes in? Or do
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: you sit down?
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: I never get up in the at night to go
• 54:15
  Speaker 4: to the toilet. My bladder is so perfectly trained.
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: I never have.
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's disappointed.
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: I don't drink after six o'clock, so I don't have
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: a full bladder.
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: I have fucking coffee in bed, So don't do it.
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: I do everyone.
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: That's the way you get to the toilet, you do.
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: For yeah, probably only get up once.
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it's about lights on, all lights off.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: I have a bright light and a low light in
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: the bathroom. I put on the bright light and I
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: stand like a fuck an hour for male and get
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: half of it on my feet. And half of it
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: in the toilet.
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: You know that's funny you say that because I have
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: a lance and a little lantern that I carry down stick.
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: Are you one of the seven Dwarfs? What do you
• 54:59

• 55:09
  Speaker 1: twenty four. You're not in Ballarats, motherfucker lantern. Fuck, I've
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: got a lantern, fucking said no one ever. No one's
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: ever said to me I've got a lantern. It took
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: sixty years. Today's the day I couldn't be more disappointed
• 55:28

  Speaker 6: Clarify, please, hell, yes, yes, okay, ruddy sleepy doc.
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: It's really cool, right.
• 55:41
  Speaker 4: The lantern has LEDs in it that glow, and so
• 55:46
  Speaker 4: you hold it by a handle. It's a traditional type
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: of lantern. If you turn it up the other way,
• 55:51
  Speaker 4: it goes from the bright white to a warm yellow,
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: and then it's got a little slider, electronic slider at
• 55:57
  Speaker 4: the top, so you can dim it down or make
• 55:59
  Speaker 4: it bright. So it's not a ye oldie lantern, it's
• 56:04
