(00:02):
So Claire, I really want to find out what happened after the phone saga last week.
I feel like everyone's over this debacle, but there was something that happened and it was kind of funny.
Tell me.
I had a flood of messages and I realized, 'cause I underpriced this phone anyway, I wanna go on and I just pick someone who's relatively polite.
(00:23):
And he's like, I can be in South Yarra within the hour.
And I'm like, done.
Cash only.
He's like, done.
So we organized the meetup and I send the exact location.
I even send the coordinates on Google Maps.
He said The coordinates.
The coordinates.
I head over there.
I'm early 'cause I wanted to scope out the position.
I wanted to have an optimum position.
(00:44):
Do you know who you're looking for at this point? No.
'cause he didn't have like a real, like he had a weird Facebook photo that he didn't really.
Like a fish or something.
It was like trees.
Okay.
So I didn't know what sky looks like.
I didn't know anything about him other than he wants phone.
He said he'll pay for phone.
He's on his way.
I am sitting there and then I'm getting a bit of a weird sense.
(01:04):
He's late, but they, they're always late.
He's part of the dance.
He, it's part of the dance.
He's on my way.
I'm close.
Then he's saying.
I'm here and he is sending me photos from outside and I'm in a shopping center.
I'm in a public place.
There's lots of people and he wants you to come outside it nighttime.
At it's nighttime, okay.
Saturday night.
And he's keeps sending me photos of like different places from outside.
(01:28):
I'm like, come into the shopping center and I send him photos.
I'm sitting in like a group of seats and he keeps sending me photos from outside.
I'm not coming outside.
This is a public safety.
It's strange.
And I am texting our mutual friend and she's like, just leave.
This is weird.
There's an man sitting there reading the newspaper and he's, yeah.
And I'm like, you know what? I'm just gonna let him know.
I'm gonna say, Hey, I am selling a phone.
I don't know who I'm meeting.
(01:49):
It's a man.
If I scream, call the police? And he is yeah.
He's coming now.
And I'm like, yeah, yeah.
He's, he's here.
He's just attempting to find me.
He's okay.
So he just keeps sending me photos from outside and I'm like, I am not coming outside.
How, how much time has gone past this? Point? Point? This is like 10 minutes.
Oh, wow.
I have got like more than five photos I'll send you.
(02:10):
Oh, actually, I'll send you the photos and you put love to see, see if you can put them on Instagram.
Yeah.
The story.
Yeah.
I am not coming outside.
Anyway, he finally we're coming in, I look up and I see this old Vietnamese man, he's on a walking frame.
Oh no.
He's waving at me with his equally aged wife, and they're like trotting along beside me.
(02:32):
He's like, I need to sit down, and you sit down and I'm like.
Oh my god.
And this is your guy? This is my guy, Claire.
So he sits down, he is looking at the phone and you show you're going to hell.
I'm so going to hell.
I've made this poor guy come out in the cold and walk he sits down, he's looking at the phone and he's showing me, he's very broken, very old phone.
(02:52):
And he's like, upgrade.
Upgrade.
He doesn't really speak much English at this point.
Oh, so there was also the translation of it all as well? Yeah, there was this translation issue.
Oh, wow.
And I'm trying to communicate with him that the phone is broken, the camera's broken, you'll need to get that fixed.
And he is you do it.
And I'm like, no, I don't fix it.
Oh.
And I'm now, I'm using chat GPT to translate to this guy to say, you don't wanna buy this phone, you need to get it fixed.
(03:13):
And he's it works.
And I'm like, it, it doesn't work.
Oh, so then it's like this thing of him being like me being like, no, no, no, I'm not selling you this phone.
'cause you need to get it fixed.
The people wanting to buy this thing and normally gonna, take it, fix it, and resell it for more money.
So what happened? Finally, his wife clocked it and was just like, we don't buy the phone.
I'm like, no, you don't buy the phone.
And then they walked, they hobbled it away.
(03:35):
They hobbled away back into the cold.
I did send them some links of refurbed.
That's lovely.
iPhones on Kogan that I thought would be a good fit for them.
And then what happened to your bodyguard? The guy that was reading the newspaper? Well, he was very interested, but the moment he saw the guy with the walker, he just got up and walked away.
(03:55):
.99999936Oh, that is too funny.

00:04:11,533.33333333 --> 00:04:15,283.33333333
And finally, of course, we have the latest edition of Death Cap Diaries.

Welcome to Spin Cycle, where we dig into the stories shaping the world and take a closer look at the patterns, power plays.
102
00:04:41,360.29679787 --> 00:04:49,70.29679787
And yes, the biases hiding in plain sight where Gab and Claire, two friends with MBAs, A lot of opinions and a healthy amount of skepticism.
103
00:04:49,370.29679787 --> 00:04:52,370.29679787
We are here to help you think twice and maybe have a few laughs.
104
00:04:52,670.29679787 --> 00:04:53,525.29679787
Let's get spinning.
105
00:04:53,914.50789664 --> 00:04:54,186.39405661
Yeah.
106
00:04:54,276.39405661 --> 00:04:57,726.39405661
What's top of mind for you this week? Do not laugh at me.
107
00:04:58,206.39405661 --> 00:05:06,196.39405661
My thing this week is very simple but so impactful I have rejuvenated my pantry.
108
00:05:06,576.39405661 --> 00:05:07,506.39405661
Mm.
109
00:05:07,536.39405661 --> 00:05:08,316.39405661
Gone through it.
110
00:05:08,376.39405661 --> 00:05:10,206.39405661
Mind you, I'll get in trouble if I don't say this.
111
00:05:10,296.39405661 --> 00:05:11,346.39405661
Corey's helped me do this.
112
00:05:11,346.39405661 --> 00:05:16,806.39405661
My pantry's just been dumping ground and literally took everything outta the cupboards.
113
00:05:16,836.39405661 --> 00:05:19,546.39405661
Reorganized, got storage containers.
114
00:05:20,746.39405661 --> 00:05:24,376.39405661
I'm not gonna lie, but I feel like my home is peaceful now.
115
00:05:24,706.39405661 --> 00:05:26,746.39405661
I feel my brain is clear.
116
00:05:26,796.39405661 --> 00:05:28,176.39405661
I've turned a new leaf.
117
00:05:28,536.39405661 --> 00:05:30,966.39405661
It is like I'm starting on a new journey.
118
00:05:30,966.39405661 --> 00:05:33,246.39405661
I don't wanna breadcrumb, but, and we can't talk about it yet.
119
00:05:33,246.39405661 --> 00:05:34,536.39405661
But you have some changes coming.
120
00:05:34,626.39405661 --> 00:05:35,106.39405661
I do.
121
00:05:35,106.39405661 --> 00:05:37,886.39405661
And so this is just all part of it, and so it's exciting.
122
00:05:37,886.39405661 --> 00:05:38,486.39405661
I feel.
123
00:05:39,36.39405661 --> 00:05:41,286.39405661
Clean plate, clean slate.
124
00:05:42,226.39405661 --> 00:05:45,421.39405661
I'm a poet now, but it's just, I feel great.
125
00:05:45,661.39405661 --> 00:05:46,261.39405661
I feel really good.
126
00:05:46,501.39405661 --> 00:05:47,11.39405661
Amazing.
127
00:05:47,11.39405661 --> 00:05:47,641.39405661
I love that.
128
00:05:47,851.39405661 --> 00:05:54,346.39405661
And what about you? What's on your mind? I just finished the last episode of the Handmaid's Tale series on Tuesday.
129
00:05:54,646.39405661 --> 00:05:57,916.39405661
I am unfortunately quite behind and I need to catch up.
130
00:05:57,966.39405661 --> 00:06:05,276.39405661
Don't spoil too much for me, what are your thoughts? How did it land with you? Okay, so I am a diehard Handmaid's Tale fan.
131
00:06:05,276.39405661 --> 00:06:07,946.39405661
I have stand through the six seasons.
132
00:06:08,6.39405661 --> 00:06:09,476.39405661
I've waded through the delays.
133
00:06:09,716.39405661 --> 00:06:12,326.39405661
I participate in the Handmaid's Tale Reddit forum I am.
134
00:06:12,386.39405661 --> 00:06:12,806.39405661
I'm deep.
135
00:06:13,198.06072327 --> 00:06:17,690.65933919
I would say that episode nine was sensational.
136
00:06:18,50.65933919 --> 00:06:20,720.65933919
Is that the last episode? It was the second last, ooh.
137
00:06:20,770.65933919 --> 00:06:28,580.65933919
Then episode 10 came and I had very high expectations and it just didn't quite hit the expectations.
138
00:06:28,880.65933919 --> 00:06:36,20.65933919
But they had a challenge, which is that they are doing the Testaments, which is the spinoff series, which is.
139
00:06:36,920.65933919 --> 00:06:41,660.65933919
Is that pre post oh, the Margaret Atwood book is 15 years in the future.
140
00:06:42,320.65933919 --> 00:06:42,650.65933919
Yes.
141
00:06:42,650.65933919 --> 00:06:57,687.99267189
However, what Elizabeth Moss, who's executive producing it has said is that it's gonna kick off pretty much straight after, so they can't do too much with the epilogue that they could typically do with a series where this is your last time with those characters, You're right, it's the farewell of these characters.
142
00:06:57,687.99267189 --> 00:06:57,747.99267189
Yeah.
143
00:06:57,747.99267189 --> 00:07:02,337.99267189
And there was some beautiful farewells, like there was a few surprises that they actually kept under wraps.
144
00:07:02,637.99267189 --> 00:07:13,682.99267189
So there was an episode where there's gonna be reunions, isn't there? There was certain scenes that they filmed in secrecy, and they filmed a bunch of other scenes so that no one really knew what was gonna happen in that final episode.
145
00:07:14,502.99267189 --> 00:07:18,132.99267189
So I would say that it, didn't quite wrap things up in a beautiful bow.
146
00:07:18,222.99267189 --> 00:07:18,612.99267189
Okay.
147
00:07:18,612.99267189 --> 00:07:21,12.99267189
That I would've loved it to have done so.
148
00:07:21,552.99267189 --> 00:07:30,922.99267189
Was it an emotional journey? Were there tears? What kind of feeling were you left with at the end of the episode? Is it anger? Is it triumph? We could have had 30 more minutes.
149
00:07:30,952.99267189 --> 00:07:32,632.99267189
There is just so much more you could have done.
150
00:07:32,632.99267189 --> 00:07:36,192.99267189
But I think it's 'cause of the testaments and we think about some of the characters journeys.
151
00:07:36,312.99267189 --> 00:07:36,552.99267189
Yeah.
152
00:07:37,92.99267189 --> 00:07:40,602.99267189
It's expected that June is not gonna be in the Testaments Yeah.
153
00:07:40,682.99267189 --> 00:07:44,192.99267189
And then there's certain characters like, yvan Trotsky's character, Serena.
154
00:07:44,807.99267189 --> 00:07:51,737.99267189
Even though it's not in the testaments, I think they're can try and somehow get it in there just because her character is just so well adored by the fans.
155
00:07:52,277.99267189 --> 00:07:57,557.99267189
They'll probably do, and I dunno, I've not read the book, but you know how there's some shows just to get people in.
156
00:07:57,587.99267189 --> 00:08:00,797.99267189
They have one of the main characters in the first episode, then they kill 'em off or something.
157
00:08:01,157.99267189 --> 00:08:03,672.99267189
But then it's a great transition Yes, yes.
158
00:08:03,972.99267189 --> 00:08:05,862.99267189
To the new, to bring generation.
159
00:08:05,922.99267189 --> 00:08:06,282.99267189
Yeah.
160
00:08:06,282.99267189 --> 00:08:11,442.99267189
So really keen to see what they're gonna do there, but highly recommend it because if you have not watched The Handmaid's Tale.
161
00:08:11,707.99267189 --> 00:08:13,237.99267189
You have six seasons of content to watch.
162
00:08:13,237.99267189 --> 00:08:15,247.99267189
How good is that? And perfect, because it's winter.
163
00:08:16,339.99267189 --> 00:08:21,169.99267189
Alright Claire, let's kick this off with the real third wheel in every relationship at the moment.
164
00:08:21,169.99267189 --> 00:08:22,39.99267189
And that's ai.
165
00:08:22,129.99267189 --> 00:08:28,489.99267189
Honestly, if chat GPT had a Tinder profile, I honestly think people would swipe right just to avoid the small talk.
166
00:08:28,669.99267189 --> 00:08:30,169.99267189
It's actually the worst.
167
00:08:30,169.99267189 --> 00:08:34,789.99267189
And apps would designed to make us love, find love faster.
168
00:08:35,179.99267189 --> 00:08:40,519.99267189
And now people are dating a perfectly engineered human and it's not the same.
169
00:08:41,929.99267189 --> 00:08:50,459.99267189
I had a friend who found out that her hinge match used chat, GBT to write every single message, including the part where he loved hiking in dogs.
170
00:08:51,59.99267189 --> 00:08:57,719.99267189
He was just basically taking her messages, putting them in chat, GBT, and then it was creating an echo chamber back to her.
171
00:08:59,39.99267189 --> 00:09:00,29.99267189
So she was catfished.
172
00:09:00,59.99267189 --> 00:09:01,829.99267189
I'm sure so many people are now.
173
00:09:02,129.99267189 --> 00:09:05,389.99267189
And this is where Simon Cynics hot take comes in.
174
00:09:05,439.99267189 --> 00:09:12,369.99267189
In the last week, he has released a video which talks about outsourcing the human part, relationships to tech.
175
00:09:12,609.99267189 --> 00:09:14,919.99267189
According to him, AI can't love.
176
00:09:15,164.99267189 --> 00:09:20,834.99267189
It can't empathize and it definitely can't handle that awkward silencing or the third date.
177
00:09:21,854.99267189 --> 00:09:34,844.99267189
It's creating the ideal output, and I think the problem with that is it's forgetting the fact that we are humans and that's what makes us compatible with other humans.
178
00:09:35,589.99267189 --> 00:09:41,439.99267189
Exactly, and I, and it's helping people navigate through conversation that's always smooth.
179
00:09:41,499.99267189 --> 00:09:42,789.99267189
There's never conflict.
180
00:09:43,239.99267189 --> 00:09:46,749.99267189
And without that sort of friction, you don't really get to know someone.
181
00:09:46,749.99267189 --> 00:09:48,399.99267189
You don't really learn about them.
182
00:09:48,399.99267189 --> 00:09:57,169.99267189
It's almost talking about the weather, very light touch Do you know what it reminds me of? Gab? You know that episode of Black Mirror with the social scoring? Yes.
183
00:09:57,169.99267189 --> 00:09:59,539.99267189
How you just tell people what they wanna hear? Yes.
184
00:09:59,539.99267189 --> 00:10:00,949.99267189
And it's basically confirmation bias.
185
00:10:00,979.99267189 --> 00:10:01,669.99267189
It's like.
186
00:10:01,859.99267189 --> 00:10:04,979.99267189
Everyone is a living, breathing LinkedIn post.
187
00:10:05,489.99267189 --> 00:10:06,779.99267189
Yeah, because it's all about image.
188
00:10:06,784.99267189 --> 00:10:08,129.99267189
It's sunshine, it's the image.
189
00:10:08,129.99267189 --> 00:10:09,29.99267189
It's performative.
190
00:10:09,59.99267189 --> 00:10:23,259.99267189
It's performative because you're say taking conflict, you're taking an issue and you're putting it in chat, GBT, and you're asking them to create the shiny perfect, PR pub polished image that people idealistically wanna portray about themselves, exactly.
191
00:10:23,259.99267189 --> 00:10:24,819.99267189
And this is also the algorithm.
192
00:10:24,819.99267189 --> 00:10:33,969.99267189
So the more that you probably swipe on the same type of person, the more that person's gonna be shown this is a very old reference, but it's like the Truman show.
193
00:10:34,19.99267189 --> 00:10:39,659.99267189
That's a really good point because they are algorithms and if everyone's creating their profile generated from.
194
00:10:40,49.99267189 --> 00:10:47,429.99267189
AI and people aren't bringing the niche and the interesting about them, there's nothing for the algorithm to differentiate.
195
00:10:47,729.99267189 --> 00:10:52,209.99267189
So you're never gonna get, matches anymore that are algorithmically ideal.
196
00:10:52,259.99267189 --> 00:10:53,99.99267189
Exactly.
197
00:10:53,339.99267189 --> 00:10:55,949.99267189
And back to cynic in the video that I referenced.
198
00:10:56,759.99267189 --> 00:11:01,199.99267189
He also points out that we've gotten into this point of this frictionless experience.
199
00:11:01,199.99267189 --> 00:11:07,19.99267189
I touched on it before, but basically with chat t or ai, you're able to skip the fight.
200
00:11:07,259.99267189 --> 00:11:07,289.99267189
Mm.
201
00:11:07,289.99267189 --> 00:11:15,559.99267189
Skip the awkward conversations, skip any kind of vulnerability, but real relationships rely on that real authentic connection.
202
00:11:15,739.99267189 --> 00:11:16,189.99267189
Yes.
203
00:11:16,369.99267189 --> 00:11:18,79.99267189
Actually, this is, there's a story that I.
204
00:11:18,829.99267189 --> 00:11:19,909.99267189
Reminds me of this.
205
00:11:20,329.99267189 --> 00:11:23,809.99267189
I was hiring someone and it was right when chat JPT was coming out.
206
00:11:23,809.99267189 --> 00:11:29,209.99267189
I'd only been out for a few months and some people, you know, had the pro version, but it was still emerging.
207
00:11:29,209.99267189 --> 00:11:30,109.99267189
Not everyone was using it.
208
00:11:30,109.99267189 --> 00:11:30,409.99267189
Yeah.
209
00:11:30,859.99267189 --> 00:11:38,589.99267189
And I got all the cover letters for the role I was hiring for and I'm going through it and I was at a team update.
210
00:11:38,589.99267189 --> 00:11:42,9.99267189
I'm like, guys, we have some amazing candidates.
211
00:11:42,59.99267189 --> 00:11:46,289.99267189
They are literally ticking every boxes that I was hoping to find.
212
00:11:46,289.99267189 --> 00:11:46,739.99267189
Yeah.
213
00:11:47,174.99267189 --> 00:11:57,154.99267189
One of the engineers in the room looks at me and he's Claire, you do realize they would've put your job ad into chat, GPT, and they're just telling you what you wanna hear.
214
00:11:57,454.99267189 --> 00:11:58,984.99267189
So that was a bit awkward.
215
00:11:59,464.99267189 --> 00:12:03,774.99267189
So I took grab and then asked chat, GPT how to identify, identify these people.
216
00:12:04,854.99267189 --> 00:12:11,814.99267189
And now when I hire people, I don't even look at the cover letters because I know that it's just likely gonna be chat GPT that's been idealistically matched.
217
00:12:11,874.99267189 --> 00:12:17,814.99267189
I instead rely on the interview process and other, you know, ways to understand and just look at their cv.
218
00:12:17,904.99267189 --> 00:12:19,134.99267189
That's probably also a good match.
219
00:12:19,584.99267189 --> 00:12:32,694.99267189
The hiring process is definitely gonna change because I've also seen so many videos if an interview is online via Zoom, they just have chat, PT going, they've got their phone going, listening to them and providing them a real time response of what the people on the other side wanna hear.
220
00:12:32,964.99267189 --> 00:12:36,924.99267189
So I, I really do wonder what will happen to the hiring process.
221
00:12:36,924.99267189 --> 00:12:39,924.99267189
It's almost like needs to be without tech, without digital.
222
00:12:40,104.99267189 --> 00:12:40,224.99267189
Yes.
223
00:12:40,464.99267189 --> 00:12:44,904.99267189
What are the responses that you're getting? Yes, but I think.
224
00:12:45,264.99267189 --> 00:12:57,994.99267189
There was another story as well where a couple had a fight and the guy used chat, GPT to put in the perspective of it and came back to her and was like, okay, like I hear your perspective.
225
00:12:58,444.99267189 --> 00:12:59,464.99267189
This is my perspective.
226
00:12:59,464.99267189 --> 00:13:00,604.99267189
This is what chat GPT say.
227
00:13:00,604.99267189 --> 00:13:07,154.99267189
And she's you used AI to, dissect, like the fact that you don't have the intelligence to understand what happening.
228
00:13:07,154.99267189 --> 00:13:07,214.99267189
Yeah.
229
00:13:07,214.99267189 --> 00:13:08,144.99267189
That foundation.
230
00:13:08,144.99267189 --> 00:13:10,449.99267189
And he was just like I thought I was doing the good thing.
231
00:13:10,509.99267189 --> 00:13:11,889.99267189
I thought this is what you wanted.
232
00:13:12,174.99267189 --> 00:13:16,174.99267189
Yeah, I guess some people would see it as effort, but some people would see it as cheating.
233
00:13:16,174.99267189 --> 00:13:17,764.99267189
Yeah, like cheating a system.
234
00:13:18,124.99267189 --> 00:13:21,304.99267189
Yeah, and I think the other problem is chat.
235
00:13:21,304.99267189 --> 00:13:25,444.99267189
GBT also is confirmatory and supportive of your view.
236
00:13:26,524.99267189 --> 00:13:32,104.99267189
So yes, you need to put something really awful in it and it will still empathize with you and tell you that you are right.
237
00:13:32,524.99267189 --> 00:13:41,614.99267189
And what's lacking when people are using it for these relationships or free therapy, is it's missing the challenger perspective, which is what you typically would get in therapy.
238
00:13:41,674.99267189 --> 00:13:42,64.99267189
Yes.
239
00:13:42,64.99267189 --> 00:13:50,794.99267189
And on that, and back to confirmation bias, it is that safe place that you can go to because you know you're not gonna be judged, you're not gonna be criticized, and.
240
00:13:51,44.99267189 --> 00:13:55,994.99267189
That's really dangerous 'cause it can enable really unhealthy behavior a hundred percent.
241
00:13:55,994.99267189 --> 00:13:58,514.99267189
Particularly if it's helping you perpetuate those behaviors.
242
00:13:59,209.99267189 --> 00:14:05,539.99267189
So bottom line tech can help you meet, but if it starts doing the loving for you, you're not in a relationship.
243
00:14:05,539.99267189 --> 00:14:07,69.99267189
It really is a simulation.
244
00:14:07,219.99267189 --> 00:14:07,939.99267189
Mm.
245
00:14:09,139.99267189 --> 00:14:13,609.99267189
Alright, gab, let's dive into the latest celebrity saga that's got everyone talking.
246
00:14:13,609.99267189 --> 00:14:15,109.99267189
Hugh Jackman and Deborah Lee.
247
00:14:15,109.99267189 --> 00:14:17,929.99267189
Furnaces divorce after 27 years of marriage.
248
00:14:18,79.99267189 --> 00:14:18,949.99267189
Yes, Claire.
249
00:14:19,39.99267189 --> 00:14:24,204.99267189
And after announcing the separation in September, 2023, I can't believe it's that long ago now.
250
00:14:25,9.99267189 --> 00:14:28,549.99267189
Deb has officially filed for divorce and that was just this week.
251
00:14:28,549.99267189 --> 00:14:30,79.99267189
So it's quite fresh off the press.
252
00:14:30,509.99267189 --> 00:14:37,439.99267189
And what's quite interesting is that she's described the split as a traumatic journey of betrayal and a profound wound.
253
00:14:37,619.99267189 --> 00:14:44,204.99267189
Yeah, that's, that is some choice words, but who is De Lee Finniss? She is an Australian actress and producer.
254
00:14:44,564.99267189 --> 00:14:45,704.99267189
She's best known for shame.
255
00:14:45,704.99267189 --> 00:14:47,974.99267189
I haven't seen that, but should we watch it? I don't know.
256
00:14:47,974.99267189 --> 00:14:48,814.99267189
I've not heard of this.
257
00:14:48,814.99267189 --> 00:14:49,564.99267189
Yeah, let's watch it.
258
00:14:50,54.99267189 --> 00:14:53,444.99267189
And a philanthropic work in advoc adoption advocacy.
259
00:14:53,804.99267189 --> 00:14:58,874.99267189
She met Hugh Jackman in the 1995 on the set of corral, and they married a year later.
260
00:14:58,934.99267189 --> 00:15:03,74.99267189
They over adopted two children, Oscar and Ava after Deborah had fertility struggles.
261
00:15:03,794.99267189 --> 00:15:09,314.99267189
Throughout the 27 year marriage, she was described in the media as the oldest supportive wife.
262
00:15:09,554.99267189 --> 00:15:10,844.99267189
She's a powerhouse in her own right.
263
00:15:10,844.99267189 --> 00:15:12,284.99267189
She's done a lot of really great things.
264
00:15:12,284.99267189 --> 00:15:18,284.99267189
But I definitely would say Deb's always been described and viewed through the lens of Hugh.
265
00:15:19,64.99267189 --> 00:15:23,264.99267189
Everyone knew her as Hugh Jackman's wife, not as, absolutely not Deborah Lee Finn.
266
00:15:23,314.99267189 --> 00:15:23,854.99267189
To be honest, I.
267
00:15:24,349.99267189 --> 00:15:26,934.99267189
I didn't even know any of this about her to be honest's.
268
00:15:26,934.99267189 --> 00:15:28,309.99267189
I, and your name was? Name was Deborah.
269
00:15:28,669.99267189 --> 00:15:31,669.99267189
But I thought it was like Deborah Rah with the RAH.
270
00:15:31,669.99267189 --> 00:15:32,204.99267189
I didn't even know how to spell it.
271
00:15:32,324.99267189 --> 00:15:32,659.99267189
I didn't even know her.
272
00:15:32,659.99267189 --> 00:15:33,259.99267189
It was Deb.
273
00:15:34,69.99267189 --> 00:15:36,859.99267189
I also didn't know that she went by like her own surname.
274
00:15:37,39.99267189 --> 00:15:39,109.99267189
Like I thought it would be like Deborah Jackman.
275
00:15:39,109.99267189 --> 00:15:46,310.99267189
But no, she retained her own name as well, which I think would've been big back then in the nineties when everyone was taking on, you know the husband's name, there was the thing you did.
276
00:15:46,310.99267189 --> 00:15:47,270.99267189
Yeah, absolutely.
277
00:15:47,450.99267189 --> 00:15:48,380.99267189
So they.
278
00:15:48,625.99267189 --> 00:15:54,325.99267189
In 2023, I would say they issued a joint statement saying that they were parting ways to pursue individual grope.
279
00:15:54,325.99267189 --> 00:15:55,495.99267189
It was very polished.
280
00:15:55,855.99267189 --> 00:16:00,715.99267189
They were very private, so she did not often comment on her relationships.
281
00:16:01,75.99267189 --> 00:16:14,995.99267189
So I think we had almost like a royal perception of the relationship, the split, the v, very highly manicured announcement, and now we've actually seen her thoughts come out.
282
00:16:15,535.99267189 --> 00:16:16,555.99267189
Yeah, it's a.
283
00:16:17,360.99267189 --> 00:16:20,120.99267189
Her choice of words is quite interesting to me.
284
00:16:20,600.99267189 --> 00:16:24,800.99267189
It's still quite vague, there's smoke and mirrors, but the use of betrayal.
285
00:16:25,10.99267189 --> 00:16:25,310.99267189
Mm-hmm.
286
00:16:25,550.99267189 --> 00:16:26,90.99267189
In.
287
00:16:26,510.99267189 --> 00:16:30,0.99267189
In that, that's got a strong emotional connotation.
288
00:16:30,150.99267189 --> 00:16:30,630.99267189
Yes.
289
00:16:31,50.99267189 --> 00:16:43,890.9926719
And it is being rumored that Hugh returned to Broadway and then is now in a relationship with CoStar Sutton Foster, and they did the music Man together in 2022, prior to the separation in 2023 for the couple.
290
00:16:44,580.9926719 --> 00:16:49,200.9926719
And people commented on their chemistry, emotional closeness, and.
291
00:16:49,950.9926719 --> 00:16:53,370.9926719
It started to really circulate that they are together now in 2025.
292
00:16:53,610.9926719 --> 00:17:00,850.9926719
So if you're wondering who Sutton is I'm sure there's some of our listeners who have watched younger or, and if they haven't they, they absolutely should.
293
00:17:01,120.9926719 --> 00:17:02,890.9926719
But she was the star of that show.
294
00:17:02,940.9926719 --> 00:17:04,590.9926719
And that's how I came to know her.
295
00:17:05,60.9926719 --> 00:17:05,720.9926719
Great show.
296
00:17:06,110.9926719 --> 00:17:09,730.9926719
But it is interesting because they were colleagues.
297
00:17:09,940.9926719 --> 00:17:15,520.9926719
They obviously spent a lot of time together work at the workplace, which is the stage.
298
00:17:15,610.9926719 --> 00:17:15,880.9926719
Mm-hmm.
299
00:17:16,120.9926719 --> 00:17:16,121.9926719
Mm-hmm.
300
00:17:16,285.9926719 --> 00:17:22,815.9926719
And we don't know what's happened here, but I would suggest that at the time of announcing the separation was.
301
00:17:23,310.9926719 --> 00:17:25,780.9926719
Really early day days for them on what that meant.
302
00:17:25,840.9926719 --> 00:17:30,510.9926719
And now, filing for divorce, this is coming to the time of settlement.
303
00:17:30,510.9926719 --> 00:17:33,420.9926719
This is the messy part where you've gotta talk about assets.
304
00:17:33,900.9926719 --> 00:17:38,10.9926719
It is where you probably will see the true side of that other person.
305
00:17:38,10.9926719 --> 00:17:39,440.9926719
Or, the true colors come out.
306
00:17:39,710.9926719 --> 00:17:42,230.9926719
And it might not be nice, it might be disgusting.
307
00:17:42,230.9926719 --> 00:17:46,300.9926719
It's someone who you thought you knew, this is where all the emotions are brought back up again.
308
00:17:46,450.9926719 --> 00:17:46,720.9926719
Yeah.
309
00:17:46,720.9926719 --> 00:17:47,680.9926719
And one of the things that.
310
00:17:47,950.9926719 --> 00:17:53,860.9926719
Deb's definitely gonna have to face is in saying words like, betrayed, blindsided.
311
00:17:54,280.9926719 --> 00:17:55,900.9926719
Mm, those very emotive words.
312
00:17:56,290.9926719 --> 00:18:00,40.9926719
She could be given the scorn woman identity.
313
00:18:01,360.9926719 --> 00:18:02,50.9926719
And it's not fair.
314
00:18:02,290.9926719 --> 00:18:05,560.9926719
Like it really isn't fair.
315
00:18:05,680.9926719 --> 00:18:09,820.9926719
And I think if roles were reversed, the media would be telling a different story.
316
00:18:09,820.9926719 --> 00:18:13,260.9926719
Although I think I haven't, I haven't seen too much negative about this yet.
317
00:18:13,530.9926719 --> 00:18:21,430.9926719
If anything, I've seen the media portrayed this as, her taking control and taking the power back of her story and the narrative.
318
00:18:21,580.9926719 --> 00:18:21,700.9926719
Mm-hmm.
319
00:18:21,700.9926719 --> 00:18:30,310.9926719
But, I think what we would see if roles were reversed and that, say she went off with someone else I think they'd be quite critical of her a hundred percent.
320
00:18:30,610.9926719 --> 00:18:35,230.9926719
Also, like with the scorn woman identity, I think we've seen a few people recently that have done.
321
00:18:36,55.9926719 --> 00:18:44,95.9926719
Navigated that, and that was Lily Jay who was married to Ethan Slater, and that was the one who had the affair with Ariana Grande when they were filming record.
322
00:18:44,95.9926719 --> 00:18:44,665.9926719
Oh, yes.
323
00:18:44,905.9926719 --> 00:18:45,505.9926719
She did.
324
00:18:45,505.9926719 --> 00:18:52,135.9926719
The most amazing essay that spoke about who she was when they prior to meeting, when they met, dated.
325
00:18:52,135.9926719 --> 00:18:53,65.9926719
She's a doctor, by the way.
326
00:18:53,425.9926719 --> 00:18:53,740.9926719
Okay.
327
00:18:53,740.9926719 --> 00:18:55,285.9926719
She looks super accomplished in her own right.
328
00:18:55,285.9926719 --> 00:19:10,365.9926719
They have a child together, and I think she really spoke about the experience of her separation, and she did it delicately and nuanced that she really circumvented getting called or brought into the messiness of Arianna and Ethan's affair.
329
00:19:11,475.9926719 --> 00:19:12,45.9926719
Good on her.
330
00:19:12,275.9926719 --> 00:19:15,245.9926719
And that was received well? I think it was very well received.
331
00:19:15,245.9926719 --> 00:19:15,545.9926719
Yeah.
332
00:19:15,545.9926719 --> 00:19:19,565.9926719
I think everyone was very complimentary of the way that she's handled herself.
333
00:19:19,925.9926719 --> 00:19:29,735.9926719
She definitely had flipped the narrative and I think it also took away from like Ariana and Ethan's relationship, like it put a certain.
334
00:19:30,320.9926719 --> 00:19:31,190.9926719
Lens on it.
335
00:19:31,760.9926719 --> 00:19:40,940.9926719
So like Deb could definitely challenge that and make sure that he doesn't get the, he's a brave, sensitive man going through a powerful change.
336
00:19:40,940.9926719 --> 00:19:45,140.9926719
He's having his own identity, he's learning what he wants as a person.
337
00:19:45,140.9926719 --> 00:19:46,190.9926719
People change.
338
00:19:46,520.9926719 --> 00:19:49,930.9926719
And Deb can challenge that and say, no, actually that's me.
339
00:19:49,990.9926719 --> 00:19:53,260.9926719
That's me picking myself up after someone pulled.
340
00:19:53,875.9926719 --> 00:19:54,985.9926719
The floor from beneath me.
341
00:19:55,285.9926719 --> 00:19:55,585.9926719
Yeah.
342
00:19:55,585.9926719 --> 00:20:03,815.9926719
And what we do know is that when they did separate part of the announcement was and when they gave a bit of a reason as to why they'd separated, it was to grow individually.
343
00:20:03,815.9926719 --> 00:20:08,345.9926719
So obviously Hugh has found love again.
344
00:20:08,755.9926719 --> 00:20:17,875.9926719
And I think this is why this hits a bit hard and reading betw between the lines of Deb's messages now for the divorce, it's a story that so many women do know.
345
00:20:17,875.9926719 --> 00:20:20,515.9926719
It's that you give your partner space to grow and they leave you.
346
00:20:20,935.9926719 --> 00:20:23,95.9926719
And they've at, when they're at their peak.
347
00:20:23,95.9926719 --> 00:20:28,715.9926719
So you're expected to always be gracious and that supportive person as part of that narrative.
348
00:20:28,715.9926719 --> 00:20:30,575.9926719
And we can really see Deb here is gone.
349
00:20:30,575.9926719 --> 00:20:35,465.9926719
Actually, I am my own person and my side of the story about us too.
350
00:20:36,125.9926719 --> 00:20:42,425.9926719
It, yeah, and I think it's almost like a reminder to us that staying silent doesn't always protect you.
351
00:20:42,425.9926719 --> 00:20:47,855.9926719
And sometimes it's okay to say, I was hurt, I was loyal, and I deserve better.
352
00:20:48,845.9926719 --> 00:20:49,295.9926719
Deb.
353
00:20:49,805.9926719 --> 00:20:53,255.9926719
Have you seen the lap gab? I've seen the slap, yeah.
354
00:20:53,255.9926719 --> 00:20:54,180.9926719
Have you seen the slap? Yeah.
355
00:20:54,180.9926719 --> 00:20:54,340.9926719
Yeah.
356
00:20:54,345.9926719 --> 00:20:54,545.9926719
Yeah.
357
00:20:54,635.9926719 --> 00:21:01,205.9926719
I remember that like when it happened, my neighbor like brought out her iPad and was just like, see this lap? And I'm like, whew.
358
00:21:01,295.9926719 --> 00:21:02,615.9926719
And you can actually watch him recoil.
359
00:21:03,590.9926719 --> 00:21:28,340.9926719
So what we're talking about here is the recent video that has Surface, which is of the French President, Emmanuel Macron, and the first lady Bridget Macron, basically about to disembark off a plane and you can see him through the door and then all of a sudden you see an arm with a red coat just ha the hand hits his face like a slab.
360
00:21:29,360.9926719 --> 00:21:38,480.9926719
You can tell he's caught well off guard, and then he immediately puts his PR face back on.
361
00:21:38,870.9926719 --> 00:21:42,500.9926719
He smiles, he waves at onlookers and it's like nothing even happened.
362
00:21:43,55.9926719 --> 00:22:00,125.9926719
Do you know what this actually reminds me of that scene in love actually, where Hugh Grant and the secretary is like behind the stage at the kids' concert at the end, and then the stage opens and they're kissing, and then they turn, and then they just wave and they bow and then they just run away.
363
00:22:00,305.9926719 --> 00:22:00,515.9926719
Yeah.
364
00:22:02,105.9926719 --> 00:22:02,630.9926719
Oh God.
365
00:22:03,335.9926719 --> 00:22:09,335.9926719
This is of course a different kind of emotional, instance that they've been captured in publicly.
366
00:22:09,455.9926719 --> 00:22:09,875.9926719
Yes.
367
00:22:10,295.9926719 --> 00:22:15,355.9926719
And the French president's office immediately addressed the incident and said it was lighthearted.
368
00:22:15,355.9926719 --> 00:22:18,535.9926719
It was just an affectionate exchange between the couple.
369
00:22:18,805.9926719 --> 00:22:21,445.9926719
He dismissed the buzz stating it was just them joking and teasing.
370
00:22:21,775.9926719 --> 00:22:25,285.9926719
Looking at the video, it didn't look like that, that is their official statement on the matter.
371
00:22:27,205.9926719 --> 00:22:32,815.9926719
Has there been much coming outta this, or is it just really the video and it's just fizzled out to nothing.
372
00:22:34,795.9926719 --> 00:22:36,535.9926719
There's definitely been some commentary on it.
373
00:22:36,695.9926719 --> 00:22:39,305.9926719
But I would say it has gone a bit quiet.
374
00:22:39,695.9926719 --> 00:22:45,325.9926719
People were saying that it's very hard because you only see the arm, you don't see Bridget's reaction, you don't have the face.
375
00:22:45,325.9926719 --> 00:22:47,815.9926719
So I think, we could definitely make assumptions.
376
00:22:47,965.9926719 --> 00:22:49,405.9926719
We don't know the context.
377
00:22:50,50.9926719 --> 00:22:52,930.9926719
No, we don't have the, we don't have the conversation context before then.
378
00:22:53,400.9926719 --> 00:23:02,190.9926719
I do think that maybe it would, if it was opposite and it was a man slapping a woman, though, I do think the media would respond very differently.
379
00:23:02,250.9926719 --> 00:23:02,730.9926719
Yeah.
380
00:23:02,760.9926719 --> 00:23:03,120.9926719
Yeah.
381
00:23:03,120.9926719 --> 00:23:04,80.9926719
A hundred percent.
382
00:23:04,170.9926719 --> 00:23:05,700.9926719
Yeah, that a hundred percent.
383
00:23:05,820.9926719 --> 00:23:06,900.9926719
That is a really good call out.
384
00:23:08,370.9926719 --> 00:23:13,890.9926719
But did you know that there is that huge age gap between the two? No.
385
00:23:14,160.9926719 --> 00:23:16,350.9926719
NI is 24 years, his senior and Gab.
386
00:23:17,265.9926719 --> 00:23:18,615.9926719
She was his teacher.
387
00:23:19,335.9926719 --> 00:23:20,230.9926719
What? Yes.
388
00:23:20,865.9926719 --> 00:23:21,75.9926719
Yes.
389
00:23:21,75.9926719 --> 00:23:22,695.9926719
Did I not know this? Yes.
390
00:23:22,755.9926719 --> 00:23:30,585.9926719
She was a 39-year-old teacher, married with three children, and he was a 15-year-old student at the time.
391
00:23:30,585.9926719 --> 00:23:33,765.9926719
And gosh, the French lived these juicy lives.
392
00:23:34,245.9926719 --> 00:23:34,665.9926719
Yes.
393
00:23:35,175.9926719 --> 00:23:43,145.9926719
And they reconnected a long time later in, 2007 after Bridget's divorce.
394
00:23:43,535.9926719 --> 00:23:48,665.9926719
And then she had a very prominent figure in French public life, but she was his teacher.
395
00:23:48,785.9926719 --> 00:23:50,555.9926719
What? I love that fact.
396
00:23:50,855.9926719 --> 00:23:52,745.9926719
This is not expected.
397
00:23:52,895.9926719 --> 00:23:53,555.9926719
That's cool.
398
00:23:54,255.9926719 --> 00:23:56,235.9926719
Is it well, I don't know.
399
00:23:56,335.9926719 --> 00:23:57,55.9926719
I think it's fine.
400
00:23:57,105.9926719 --> 00:23:58,95.9926719
They're of the age now.
401
00:23:58,95.9926719 --> 00:24:00,585.9926719
I don't know how old they both were when they reconnected.
402
00:24:00,595.9926719 --> 00:24:02,765.9926719
I'm hoping he was over, 21.
403
00:24:03,295.9926719 --> 00:24:06,835.9926719
But it is weird because they would've known each other in such a different circumstance.
404
00:24:06,985.9926719 --> 00:24:07,465.9926719
Yes.
405
00:24:07,555.9926719 --> 00:24:14,415.9926719
And given that he's the, like the figurehead of France, like it's highly unlikely we're gonna get the scandalous details.
406
00:24:14,715.9926719 --> 00:24:16,785.9926719
But it's weird.
407
00:24:17,685.9926719 --> 00:24:18,615.9926719
Yeah, it is a bit weird.
408
00:24:18,855.9926719 --> 00:24:19,425.9926719
I guess you're right.
409
00:24:19,425.9926719 --> 00:24:21,255.9926719
It is a bit weird because.
410
00:24:22,125.9926719 --> 00:24:27,165.9926719
He would probably be a similar age to, I'm not sure if he's got kids, but yeah.
411
00:24:27,315.9926719 --> 00:24:41,585.9926719
How do you even navigate that if you're the same age as the kids of your partner? It would be very challenging, particularly when you are dealing with potentially the children and parental figure relationship, which never changes.
412
00:24:41,585.9926719 --> 00:24:44,975.9926719
Like you are always the children of your parents and they treat you accordingly.
413
00:24:45,485.9926719 --> 00:24:47,650.9926719
So you're treating, your son and daughter.
414
00:24:48,720.9926719 --> 00:24:53,880.9926719
A certain way, but then your spouse is the same age and like it's an, it's a weird dynamic.
415
00:24:53,880.9926719 --> 00:24:54,270.9926719
You're right.
416
00:24:54,270.9926719 --> 00:24:55,395.9926719
It's the more that I think about it.
417
00:24:55,395.9926719 --> 00:25:03,630.9926719
It's, but then does the spouse just become peers to the siblings? Or are they expected to take the parental? It's a very weird dynamic.
418
00:25:03,690.9926719 --> 00:25:04,320.9926719
It's weird.
419
00:25:04,350.9926719 --> 00:25:05,970.9926719
We dunno, the intricacies, we dunno.
420
00:25:05,970.9926719 --> 00:25:11,555.9926719
These people, maybe she's really young at heart and maybe he's an old soul, or, I don't know.
421
00:25:11,710.9926719 --> 00:25:15,111.6849787
There's definitely so many different ways that you can cut it, but 24 years.
422
00:25:15,925.3661159 --> 00:25:24,415.3661159
Let's delve into the unsettling world of digital voyeurism, A term that might sound clinical, but represents deeply invasive violations of privacy.
423
00:25:24,955.3661159 --> 00:25:33,715.3661159
Digital voyeurism involves secretly observing or recording individuals without their consent, often in private settings using hidden cameras or covert reporting devices.
424
00:25:34,45.3661159 --> 00:25:34,645.3661159
This.
425
00:25:35,230.3661159 --> 00:25:40,30.3661159
Breach of privacy can have profound emotional and psychological effects on victims.
426
00:25:40,30.3661159 --> 00:25:42,460.3661159
But this isn't just private settings.
427
00:25:42,460.3661159 --> 00:25:48,910.3661159
There's also people using these devices in public, which is complicated because you can film people in public.
428
00:25:49,360.3661159 --> 00:25:50,265.3661159
Yeah, there's so much gray.
429
00:25:51,475.3661159 --> 00:25:54,625.3661159
A recent case in Sydney brings this issue to the forefront.
430
00:25:55,205.3661159 --> 00:26:06,845.3661159
Louis Alberto Canino Mena, very long name, a 39-year-old man, pleaded guilty to intentionally recording intimate images of his female housemates without their knowledge.
431
00:26:06,845.3661159 --> 00:26:08,585.3661159
So this is all coming to the news this week.
432
00:26:08,635.3661159 --> 00:26:15,415.3661159
He used a pen shaped hidden camera to secretly film them in the bathroom of their shared house.
433
00:26:15,515.3661159 --> 00:26:30,205.3661159
The COVID surveillance was uncovered by the landlord after the tenants had moved out, so he had professional cleaners in who were cleaning the place, discovered it, and that promptly, started that police investigation Oh, uh, I know.
434
00:26:30,205.3661159 --> 00:26:31,195.3661159
That is so disgusting.
435
00:26:31,195.3661159 --> 00:26:39,55.3661159
And it's, they didn't, I don't know how long they were living there, but the fact that it wasn't discovered till afterwards, there's a lot of effort gone into hiding this camera.
436
00:26:39,715.3661159 --> 00:26:40,795.3661159
Oh my goodness.
437
00:26:40,885.3661159 --> 00:26:47,665.3661159
So one of the victims expressed a deep sense of betrayal and called for mean's deportation, citing concerns for public safety.
438
00:26:47,935.3661159 --> 00:26:56,815.3661159
The incident underscores the urgent need for stronger privacy protections and public awareness, particularly with the rise of these devices becoming so easily accessible.
439
00:26:57,630.3661159 --> 00:27:10,40.3661159
On that there was another disturbing case, which was in February this year where an American content creator used meta RayBan smart glasses to secretly film women in Sydney and Melbourne.
440
00:27:10,588.6994492 --> 00:27:14,458.6994492
He uploaded these videos to his social media channels without their consent.
441
00:27:14,758.6994492 --> 00:27:27,418.6994492
Several women who were filmed expressing distress, noting that they were unaware that they were being recorded, and despite the request to remove the videos, he blocked the women and ignored their demands, resulting distress and bullying in the comments of the videos.
442
00:27:27,838.6994492 --> 00:27:28,768.6994492
Oh, that's terrible.
443
00:27:29,38.6994492 --> 00:27:32,758.6994492
There was another case in Sydney Gab where a man.
444
00:27:33,433.6994492 --> 00:27:41,495.7292088
Attended a cafe wearing these glasses and he was doing an expose with the Daily telegraph He is a Jewish man.
445
00:27:41,615.7292088 --> 00:27:41,825.7292088
Yes.
446
00:27:41,825.7292088 --> 00:27:45,515.7292088
And he was trying to provide context of what it's like to be Jewish in Sydney.
447
00:27:45,755.7292088 --> 00:27:46,385.7292088
Interesting.
448
00:27:46,415.7292088 --> 00:27:51,152.6112088
And this is particularly with the growing antisemitism incidents that were occurring.
449
00:27:51,617.6112088 --> 00:27:53,27.6112088
He wore these glasses.
450
00:27:53,457.6112088 --> 00:27:58,801.4887599
They went to Cairo Cafe in Sydney Who have been publicly vocal for their support in whats happening in Gaza.
451
00:27:59,812.3953063 --> 00:28:09,906.3182088
and there was no incident He was wearing these glasses and there was commentary made to say, do you have a problem with me being here? And the staff were like, no, I don't have a problem with you being here.
452
00:28:10,456.3182088 --> 00:28:16,216.3182088
He was wearing these glasses to record them and it created conflict, people were like, hang on a minute.
453
00:28:16,216.3182088 --> 00:28:18,136.3182088
You can't record me without me knowing.
454
00:28:18,526.3182088 --> 00:28:25,580.1962088
Then you get to slice and dice and portray it, to create a narrative that you're trying to portray And the commentary and the fallout was from both sides.
455
00:28:25,580.1962088 --> 00:28:27,200.1962088
People were saying, that's not fair.
456
00:28:27,200.1962088 --> 00:28:28,130.1962088
You can't be divisive.
457
00:28:28,130.1962088 --> 00:28:31,760.1962088
You can't be trying to do these exposes to create controversy where there isn't.
458
00:28:32,150.1962088 --> 00:28:34,910.1962088
There was definitely call out to say, this isn't helpful.
459
00:28:35,30.1962088 --> 00:28:36,200.1962088
We need to be uniting.
460
00:28:36,200.1962088 --> 00:28:38,540.1962088
We need to be supporting our communities.
461
00:28:38,540.1962088 --> 00:28:42,890.1962088
We need to be educating and making people feel like they can't trust.
462
00:28:43,355.1962088 --> 00:28:45,755.1962088
Is very counterproductive to that.
463
00:28:46,175.1962088 --> 00:28:48,195.1962088
And I totally get that.
464
00:28:48,195.1962088 --> 00:28:55,845.1962088
You might want these devices for your own personal safety, but if people don't know they're being recorded, it can create a lot of distrust.
465
00:28:56,25.1962088 --> 00:28:56,805.1962088
Yeah, exactly.
466
00:28:56,855.1962088 --> 00:28:59,660.1962088
I weirdly, as you were saying that to me, I was seeing.
467
00:29:00,530.1962088 --> 00:29:05,240.1962088
Real synergies with almost the thoughts about having guns in America.
468
00:29:05,420.1962088 --> 00:29:12,40.1962088
So I've got my gun for safety, but actually if using correctly that is it's a weapon, let's be real.
469
00:29:12,310.1962088 --> 00:29:13,810.1962088
But it's similar.
470
00:29:13,810.1962088 --> 00:29:21,910.1962088
And I know this might feel like a stretch, but in my mind I'm seeing, people can argue that these devices are used to protect them as surveillance, but.
471
00:29:22,135.1962088 --> 00:29:27,445.1962088
they also have the ability to use that technology for evil as we've seen in these examples.
472
00:29:27,495.1962088 --> 00:29:36,805.1962088
I'm sure that your example that you've just provided, there's good intentions there, but actually you can really see that, not giving people that awareness that they are filming ahead of it.
473
00:29:36,805.1962088 --> 00:29:39,925.1962088
You can really dictate the narrative and what unfolds.
474
00:29:39,925.1962088 --> 00:29:43,525.1962088
And it's not really a fair representation of what may have happened.
475
00:29:43,575.1962088 --> 00:29:44,145.1962088
Absolutely.
476
00:29:44,145.1962088 --> 00:29:46,755.1962088
And then going back to this story of the women in Sydney.
477
00:29:47,18.5295422 --> 00:29:49,358.5295422
They didn't know they were being filmed previously.
478
00:29:49,358.5295422 --> 00:29:55,138.5295422
If you're gonna record someone, you're walking around with a GoPro it gives people a little bit of autonomy to hop out of the video.
479
00:29:55,528.5295422 --> 00:29:56,878.5295422
If you don't know you're being filmed.
480
00:29:56,878.5295422 --> 00:29:57,658.5295422
That's not fair.
481
00:29:58,138.5295422 --> 00:29:58,888.5295422
Exactly.
482
00:29:58,978.5295422 --> 00:30:05,68.5295422
And the incidents really highlight the challenges in addressing, digital voyeurism.
483
00:30:05,518.5295422 --> 00:30:09,864.5295428
While there are laws that exist that are against this behavior.
484
00:30:10,21.1962095 --> 00:30:15,496.1962095
The enforcement around it the public awareness it, there is gray still, there are still hurdles.
485
00:30:15,646.8628755 --> 00:30:25,246.8628755
I think we should legislate to put it back on the producers of these devices, that they need to make it abundantly clear that someone is using these devices and they are recording.
486
00:30:25,246.8628755 --> 00:30:35,446.8628755
It could be that when it records the device, the camera lights up a certain color so that you can see that it's being done and it flashes or something like that.
487
00:30:35,456.8628755 --> 00:30:38,306.8628755
If you retrofit to hide that, then you are breaking the law.
488
00:30:38,601.8628755 --> 00:30:47,961.8628755
So it could be in a private property, it could be in a whatever, but if you are using these devices that is legal and you can't benefit from that.
489
00:30:48,11.8628755 --> 00:30:51,751.8628755
If you use that to create evidence for something it doesn't count.
490
00:30:51,751.8628755 --> 00:30:52,591.8628755
It's inadmissible.
491
00:30:53,131.8628755 --> 00:30:54,571.8628755
If you put that.
492
00:30:55,66.8628755 --> 00:30:56,596.8628755
Footage online, doesn't matter.
493
00:30:56,596.8628755 --> 00:31:02,819.0738755
You could be sued for defamation or charged criminally like little things like that to disincentivize people from using the devices.
494
00:31:03,539.0738755 --> 00:31:12,369.0738755
As technology continues to evolve so really must our understanding of misuse, but also the safeguards of.
495
00:31:12,969.0738755 --> 00:31:18,489.0738755
Making sure that it's safe to use in public because of that potential misuse.
496
00:31:18,749.0738755 --> 00:31:25,289.0738755
Also, we need to not be desensitized to our own privacy violations.
497
00:31:25,349.0738755 --> 00:31:27,689.0738755
We can't just accept it and say, that's just technology.
498
00:31:27,689.0738755 --> 00:31:38,759.0738755
We say, no, no, that is not the right behavior and it's ethical, and we need to put pressure on our politicians to introduce legislation to catch back up on these things.
499
00:31:39,134.0738755 --> 00:31:39,824.0738755
Absolutely.
500
00:31:39,824.0738755 --> 00:31:43,4.0738755
There is that ethics element that just hasn't really caught up yet.
501
00:31:44,915.2303375 --> 00:31:47,225.2303375
A quick legal note before we dive in.
502
00:31:47,435.2303375 --> 00:31:50,135.2303375
Erin Patterson's trial is still underway in Victoria.
503
00:31:50,285.2303375 --> 00:31:53,825.2303375
She has pleaded not guilty and remains presumed innocent.
504
00:31:54,35.2303375 --> 00:31:57,485.2303375
We're only summarizing evidence heard in open court and reputable news.
505
00:31:57,665.2303375 --> 00:32:03,455.2303375
This is commentary, not news, facts or verdict, calling if you're a juror, witness or otherwise involved in the case.
506
00:32:03,515.2303375 --> 00:32:06,455.2303375
Please stop listening now and return after the trial ends.
507
00:32:08,209.2212672 --> 00:32:16,129.2212672
After the last sip of coffee on a Saturday afternoon, three people dead.
508
00:32:16,729.2212672 --> 00:32:20,959.2212672
One more clinging to life from the fatal mushrooms.
509
00:32:21,439.2212672 --> 00:32:28,994.2212672
At the beef Wellington Mu, we bring you the death diaries.
510
00:32:33,159.2212672 --> 00:32:33,789.2212672
Oh my God.
511
00:32:34,479.2212672 --> 00:32:35,139.2212672
So good.
512
00:32:35,349.2212672 --> 00:32:40,359.2212672
I mean, you know what, it's, we're in our final weeks now because it's sad.
513
00:32:40,359.2212672 --> 00:32:45,519.2212672
Really? They're working through a few legal issues and then the jury will deliberate.
514
00:32:46,179.2212672 --> 00:32:52,434.2212672
I reckon they're gonna deli Well, actually, I don't, would you deliberate for a long time on this one? Really? They're being sequestered.
515
00:32:53,419.2212672 --> 00:32:54,4.2212672
They're going on camp.
516
00:32:54,739.2212672 --> 00:32:55,459.2212672
Hang on, hang on.
517
00:32:55,459.2212672 --> 00:32:57,619.2212672
Were they, aren't they already sequestered? No.
518
00:32:57,769.2212672 --> 00:32:59,719.2212672
So for deliberations, they're being sequestered.
519
00:32:59,719.2212672 --> 00:32:59,749.2212672
Oh.
520
00:32:59,749.2212672 --> 00:33:07,849.2212672
So Friday they did some legal matters Monday, I think they've got more legal matters to discuss, and then jury camp starts.
521
00:33:08,149.2212672 --> 00:33:08,569.2212672
I love it.
522
00:33:08,629.2212672 --> 00:33:10,489.2212672
I mean, if it's a nice hotel, drag it out.
523
00:33:10,729.2212672 --> 00:33:11,299.2212672
Enjoy.
524
00:33:11,569.2212672 --> 00:33:12,529.2212672
Oh my God.
525
00:33:12,619.2212672 --> 00:33:15,349.2212672
What would you do if you got sequestered? I would love it.
526
00:33:15,349.2212672 --> 00:33:16,519.2212672
I want it to last forever.
527
00:33:16,609.2212672 --> 00:33:16,669.2212672
Yeah.
528
00:33:16,729.2212672 --> 00:33:18,19.2212672
You know, this is my dream.
529
00:33:18,109.2212672 --> 00:33:20,89.2212672
I love true crime.
530
00:33:20,209.2212672 --> 00:33:23,569.2212672
I love anything about jury duty.
531
00:33:24,49.2212672 --> 00:33:24,439.2212672
Bring it.
532
00:33:24,979.2212672 --> 00:33:30,253.1214939
I wonder if there's rules, are you allowed to have wine at dinner? Because they have to do everything together.
533
00:33:31,257.5888136 --> 00:33:35,496.5570404
Like they're gonna the pub, they're gonna have a steak and red wine? in the movies they do, but I don't know.
534
00:33:35,496.5570404 --> 00:33:37,591.5570404
Are they allowed? I don't know.
535
00:33:37,721.5570404 --> 00:33:44,991.5570404
I think also I was just thinking what would, what kind of person would I be in the room? I think I'd be that annoying person that as soon, like 11 outta 12 people agree.
536
00:33:45,171.5570404 --> 00:33:47,571.5570404
And you're about to get that last person agree and then I might go.
537
00:33:48,381.5570404 --> 00:33:51,201.5570404
But actually, have we thought about this? You know, play that devil's advocate.
538
00:33:51,251.5570404 --> 00:33:53,801.5570404
You love taking that devil's advocate role.
539
00:33:53,811.5570404 --> 00:33:54,981.5570404
I would be that person.
540
00:33:55,221.5570404 --> 00:33:55,491.5570404
Yes.
541
00:33:55,491.5570404 --> 00:33:56,901.5570404
I wouldn't be making any friends out of there.
542
00:33:58,221.5570404 --> 00:33:58,761.5570404
No, no, no.
543
00:33:58,761.5570404 --> 00:34:02,451.5570404
I reckon you would be well adored because you do it in such a like.
544
00:34:02,991.5570404 --> 00:34:04,851.5570404
Let's just, let's just take a step back here.
545
00:34:05,271.5570404 --> 00:34:08,361.5570404
What if, just, just hear me out on this one.
546
00:34:10,146.5570404 --> 00:34:12,126.5570404
This week's been week five, Claire.
547
00:34:12,406.5570404 --> 00:34:13,426.5570404
Let's get everyone listening.
548
00:34:13,426.5570404 --> 00:34:14,56.5570404
Updated.
549
00:34:14,446.5570404 --> 00:34:25,96.5570404
What are the key, moments from the week that has been, we've heard over 50 witnesses and the prosecution has officially wrapped, we already knew this.
550
00:34:25,96.5570404 --> 00:34:27,166.5570404
The defense had alluded to it.
551
00:34:27,616.5570404 --> 00:34:30,676.5570404
They did not call any additional witnesses.
552
00:34:30,676.5570404 --> 00:34:31,501.5570404
Their position is, oh, okay.
553
00:34:31,561.5570404 --> 00:34:32,896.5570404
The case is circumstantial.
554
00:34:33,136.5570404 --> 00:34:36,226.5570404
It was a huge, terrible accident.
555
00:34:36,646.5570404 --> 00:34:38,206.5570404
Erin is not testifying.
556
00:34:38,596.5570404 --> 00:34:40,66.5570404
Oh, so that's been announced.
557
00:34:40,66.5570404 --> 00:34:41,146.5570404
She's not testifying.
558
00:34:41,146.5570404 --> 00:34:51,76.5570404
So the defense's case was presented as part of agreed evidence and also questioning the witnesses that were put forward by the prosecution.
559
00:34:52,156.5570404 --> 00:34:53,626.5570404
Okay, this does happen.
560
00:34:53,626.5570404 --> 00:34:54,530.4572672
This is not nuanced.
561
00:34:54,530.4572672 --> 00:34:57,424.1760404
this isn't Saying there was no one willing to testify on her behalf.
562
00:34:57,904.1760404 --> 00:35:01,444.1760404
It was the defense saying, we don't feel like we need to bring anything more in.
563
00:35:01,444.1760404 --> 00:35:03,64.1760404
I think the case is very circumstantial.
564
00:35:03,114.1760404 --> 00:35:05,184.1760404
That will speed it up, won't it? It does speed it up.
565
00:35:05,234.1760404 --> 00:35:07,694.1760404
There's definitely trials where.
566
00:35:08,219.1760404 --> 00:35:11,519.1760404
Particularly in the US the defense puts on a very performative case.
567
00:35:11,699.1760404 --> 00:35:11,879.1760404
Yeah.
568
00:35:12,149.1760404 --> 00:35:17,589.1760404
So that's where, once they get going, they could be an extra few weeks, they've got a whole bunch of additional witnesses.
569
00:35:17,589.1760404 --> 00:35:19,629.1760404
Sometimes they'll recall witnesses as well.
570
00:35:20,289.1760404 --> 00:35:27,949.1760404
In the, our system, which is inspired from the British system of court proceedings, how the courts operate is probably the better way to say it.
571
00:35:28,939.1760404 --> 00:35:30,709.1760404
The defense case.
572
00:35:31,24.1760404 --> 00:35:32,374.1760404
Often is very limited.
573
00:35:32,764.1760404 --> 00:35:39,484.1760404
I remember there was a huge case in the UK called the Lucy Lepe case, and that went for months.
574
00:35:39,754.1760404 --> 00:35:39,994.1760404
Oh, wow.
575
00:35:39,994.1760404 --> 00:35:52,944.1760404
It took months for the prosecution to present the case and all the agreed evidence and the defense picked holes through it, and then Lucy's defense started and it was, it was one defendant it was two, it was Lucy.
576
00:35:52,994.1760404 --> 00:35:55,304.1760404
She defended herself, so she gave evidence.
577
00:35:55,979.1760404 --> 00:35:57,899.1760404
And then a plumber, and that was it.
578
00:35:57,899.1760404 --> 00:35:59,849.1760404
Everyone was like, get ready for the defense.
579
00:35:59,849.1760404 --> 00:36:01,134.1760404
And then it, it just didn't, and that was it.
580
00:36:01,259.1760404 --> 00:36:01,679.1760404
That was it.
581
00:36:01,679.1760404 --> 00:36:04,49.1760404
That was all they felt that they needed to put in.
582
00:36:04,109.1760404 --> 00:36:17,789.1760404
So again, you can't really take too much away from the fact that the defense did not put forward it, but it is wrapping up now because they'll be going into deliberations and you don't know how long it's gonna take.
583
00:36:17,969.1760404 --> 00:36:22,19.1760404
And then doing some research, there is no correlation between.
584
00:36:22,454.1760404 --> 00:36:25,304.1760404
The verdict that's given and how long they deliberate.
585
00:36:25,754.1760404 --> 00:36:25,964.1760404
Really.
586
00:36:26,654.1760404 --> 00:36:28,574.1760404
So you can't be like they're taking days.
587
00:36:28,574.1760404 --> 00:36:33,464.1760404
It must be They have no idea because they do it different ways.
588
00:36:33,854.1760404 --> 00:36:38,234.1760404
And I guess it depends on who's in the room, deliberating differently, personalities.
589
00:36:38,234.1760404 --> 00:36:40,784.1760404
'cause it is a cross section of our community.
590
00:36:41,144.1760404 --> 00:36:41,504.1760404
Yeah.
591
00:36:41,684.1760404 --> 00:36:49,694.1760404
So what happened on Monday then we heard from Shaman Fox Henry, who is a dig forensic digital officer and.
592
00:36:50,384.1760404 --> 00:36:56,324.1760404
He admits that he wasn't formally trained on the software that was used to examine Patterson's devices.
593
00:36:56,504.1760404 --> 00:36:58,634.1760404
So Erin Patterson had a number of devices.
594
00:36:58,634.1760404 --> 00:37:01,124.1760404
She had a couple of different phones, some tablets and laptops.
595
00:37:01,454.1760404 --> 00:37:03,424.1760404
She's a quite a, Avid technology user.
596
00:37:04,329.1760404 --> 00:37:10,839.1760404
So that was quite interesting and I think this was the first time we really started to see the defense start to really pick holes.
597
00:37:10,839.1760404 --> 00:37:23,49.1760404
Like they were creating a lot of distrust in some of the more significant evidence because the forensic information that Shame and Fox Henry picked up on was the fact that she searched for death Cap mushroom.
598
00:37:23,49.1760404 --> 00:37:24,699.1760404
She was using the iNaturalist website.
599
00:37:24,849.1760404 --> 00:37:29,539.1760404
So it was the defense saying can we really trust that your analysis on this is accurate and.
600
00:37:30,34.1760404 --> 00:37:34,324.1760404
Outta curiosity, did we find out if, 'cause you, you said she has multiple phones.
601
00:37:34,384.1760404 --> 00:37:44,734.1760404
Was it one of the phones she was using to search this stuff? They said that there was one of the phones, but they can't prove that it was within Erin's device.
602
00:37:44,944.1760404 --> 00:37:51,184.1760404
They also said that she switched the SIM cards, but they can't guarantee that she switched the SIM cards.
603
00:37:51,184.1760404 --> 00:38:01,889.1760404
They didn't observe her doing the sim card switch, but they acknowledged that when they're alleging the SIM card switch, she was with them I think again, that was something where people went, oh, I'm not sure about that.
604
00:38:01,889.1760404 --> 00:38:02,639.1760404
Because if she was.
605
00:38:03,449.1760404 --> 00:38:09,329.1760404
In your presence, wouldn't you have seen like it's, do you know how hard it's to switch the SIM card on your iPhone? You have to have that little tool.
606
00:38:09,389.1760404 --> 00:38:10,409.1760404
Oh, you get an earring.
607
00:38:10,409.1760404 --> 00:38:11,159.1760404
It takes time.
608
00:38:11,159.1760404 --> 00:38:12,59.1760404
You're fumbling around.
609
00:38:12,209.1760404 --> 00:38:12,374.1760404
Oh, ear earing.
610
00:38:12,379.1760404 --> 00:38:13,49.1760404
Never think of that.
611
00:38:13,109.1760404 --> 00:38:13,349.1760404
Yeah.
612
00:38:13,404.1760404 --> 00:38:18,984.1760404
Have you never been on a plane and you're trying to switch your international SIM card and you're like shoving your earing? Oh, well, no.
613
00:38:18,984.1760404 --> 00:38:19,644.1760404
For a long time.
614
00:38:19,644.1760404 --> 00:38:22,14.1760404
I use an e sim these days, Claire.
615
00:38:22,14.1760404 --> 00:38:22,44.1760404
Ah.
616
00:38:22,594.1760404 --> 00:38:28,499.1760404
Yeah, I have two sims in my phone so I can avoid having a work phone and a personal phone.
617
00:38:28,499.1760404 --> 00:38:30,539.1760404
So I've got one phone with two sims.
618
00:38:31,259.1760404 --> 00:38:35,879.1760404
Then the new iPhones actually can have multiple eims in there.
619
00:38:35,879.1760404 --> 00:38:37,859.1760404
So you don't really need multiple phones these days.
620
00:38:38,99.1760404 --> 00:38:38,519.1760404
Thank you.
621
00:38:38,519.1760404 --> 00:38:44,39.1760404
But anyway, that was, that was my thing is to say you probably would've seen her switch her sim cards.
622
00:38:44,39.1760404 --> 00:38:47,309.1760404
But on that though, I do find it a bit interesting.
623
00:38:47,429.1760404 --> 00:38:48,359.1760404
'Cause she doesn't work.
624
00:38:48,359.1760404 --> 00:38:51,749.1760404
I understand why people have a work phone and personal phone, but to have multiple personal phones.
625
00:38:52,259.1760404 --> 00:38:52,769.1760404
Interesting.
626
00:38:53,339.1760404 --> 00:38:56,129.1760404
There's a certain persona of people I know of multiple phones when I work.
627
00:38:56,219.1760404 --> 00:38:58,859.1760404
Oh, really? Sorry, I'm so naive in that.
628
00:38:58,919.1760404 --> 00:39:00,149.1760404
Oh, really? Yes.
629
00:39:00,479.1760404 --> 00:39:00,599.1760404
Okay.
630
00:39:00,599.1760404 --> 00:39:00,601.1760404
Fair enough.
631
00:39:00,601.1760404 --> 00:39:01,379.1760404
You know exactly who I'm talking about.
632
00:39:01,409.1760404 --> 00:39:02,129.1760404
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
633
00:39:03,639.1760404 --> 00:39:14,919.1760404
We heard from Sally Ann Atkinson, and she was in the Department of Health, and Erin denied foraging, but did say that she wanted to present a really fancy lunch because she never had people over.
634
00:39:15,249.1760404 --> 00:39:18,459.1760404
She gave really shifting stories on where she bought the mushrooms.
635
00:39:19,74.1760404 --> 00:39:25,644.1760404
A timeline on when she purchased the ingredients, cha changed multiple times and she made it really hard for the Department of Health.
636
00:39:25,644.1760404 --> 00:39:28,254.1760404
We were trying to do tracing on what's actually happened.
637
00:39:28,284.1760404 --> 00:39:36,414.1760404
'cause at this time they were going wide and they were like, what if this is a general health crisis that we need to actively now manage? Yes.
638
00:39:36,414.1760404 --> 00:39:43,573.5093744
'cause she claimed that she's shopped at Woolworths, right? The prosecution were alleging, she hasn't been honest for specific reasons.
639
00:39:44,353.5093744 --> 00:39:46,153.5093744
The defense are like, yeah, she lied.
640
00:39:46,153.5093744 --> 00:39:49,903.5093744
She lied 'cause she was panicking, she was trying to absolve herself of what's happened.
641
00:39:49,933.5093744 --> 00:39:50,923.5093744
'cause she was horrified.
642
00:39:50,923.5093744 --> 00:39:54,163.5093744
Like they, that was their position to say people lie under panic.
643
00:39:54,973.5093744 --> 00:39:57,133.5093744
Interesting, interesting way to go about it.
644
00:39:57,193.5093744 --> 00:39:57,433.5093744
Mm-hmm.
645
00:39:57,763.5093744 --> 00:40:01,603.5093744
And then Tuesday Atkinson was cross examined.
646
00:40:03,43.5093744 --> 00:40:03,523.5093744
Yes.
647
00:40:04,63.5093744 --> 00:40:05,263.5093744
So continued.
648
00:40:05,323.5093744 --> 00:40:09,743.5093744
And then we heard from Luke Pharrell, who was part of the search of Erin's home.
649
00:40:10,403.5093744 --> 00:40:13,373.5093744
They found the cookbook Open to Beef Wellington.
650
00:40:13,373.5093744 --> 00:40:14,393.5093744
It was a recipe Tin eat cookbook.
651
00:40:14,393.5093744 --> 00:40:14,723.5093744
I know.
652
00:40:14,723.5093744 --> 00:40:16,133.5093744
That's what I wanted to talk to you about.
653
00:40:16,133.5093744 --> 00:40:17,333.5093744
It's recipe tin eat.
654
00:40:17,393.5093744 --> 00:40:17,573.5093744
Sorry.
655
00:40:17,603.5093744 --> 00:40:20,153.5093744
You know what, I'm gonna make that beef Wellington now and tell you what.
656
00:40:20,418.5093744 --> 00:40:21,593.5093744
Okay, so I bought one.
657
00:40:21,593.5093744 --> 00:40:22,373.5093744
You're gonna make it.
658
00:40:22,553.5093744 --> 00:40:23,273.5093744
I'm gonna make one.
659
00:40:23,273.5093744 --> 00:40:24,113.5093744
We love Nagi.
660
00:40:24,233.5093744 --> 00:40:30,473.5093744
We do love Nagi Digital Scales with a dehydrator manual, but no dehydrator.
661
00:40:31,88.5093744 --> 00:40:33,308.5093744
Erin gave her phone but fumbled the pin.
662
00:40:33,998.5093744 --> 00:40:39,68.5093744
And then when told Gail and Heather had died, Erin's responded, who died.
663
00:40:39,878.5093744 --> 00:40:50,998.5093744
So it was a bit awkward, but Erin had also not been receiving updates on those that were affected by the mushroom lunch, but she also wasn't asking, which was interesting.
664
00:40:51,703.5093744 --> 00:40:59,23.5093744
Yeah, because I, if I had cooked lunch for people and people were really unwell, you would feel so terrible.
665
00:40:59,23.5093744 --> 00:41:02,983.5093744
Right? You'd be feeling so, oh my God, I'm so responsible.
666
00:41:02,983.5093744 --> 00:41:05,978.5093744
Are they okay? You know what is happening? But that's right.
667
00:41:06,368.5093744 --> 00:41:06,658.5093744
Yeah.
668
00:41:06,823.5093744 --> 00:41:12,973.5093744
But the other thing to say is we can't take anything from someone's reaction to grief or shock.
669
00:41:13,213.5093744 --> 00:41:14,428.5093744
Like I know you're right.
670
00:41:14,428.5093744 --> 00:41:20,263.5093744
Like one of the biggest cases where that happened was Lindy Chamberlain and people say that she was not the right victim.
671
00:41:20,608.5093744 --> 00:41:21,958.5093744
And she was found to be innocent.
672
00:41:22,18.5093744 --> 00:41:25,663.5093744
She was innocent and people were saying that she was s the dingo did sell her ba steal her baby.
673
00:41:25,663.5093744 --> 00:41:33,808.5093744
She was stoic, she was cold, she was this, and then, that's not what a woman who's lost her child would behave but it was proven that a dingo did take her baby.
674
00:41:33,868.5093744 --> 00:41:35,158.5093744
I know Paul Lindy.
675
00:41:35,488.5093744 --> 00:41:44,488.5093744
So again, I don't think we can really comment on Erin, not being the perfect person, but I think more what we're reading into is.
676
00:41:45,148.5093744 --> 00:41:48,688.5093744
Her words and why, and that's also what the jury will be taking.
677
00:41:48,688.5093744 --> 00:41:54,868.5093744
They're taking what the prosecution is presenting, the defense's, rationale, and forming their own opinions on that.
678
00:41:55,468.5093744 --> 00:42:03,808.5093744
On that, with her police interview, they asked her about the dehydrator, and we heard that interview this week.
679
00:42:04,528.5093744 --> 00:42:14,68.5093744
When they asked if she's got she, I found her, her answers quite interesting to those questions about the dehydrator and the manual, because the manual was there at the home.
680
00:42:14,158.5093744 --> 00:42:14,278.5093744
Mm-hmm.
681
00:42:15,718.5093744 --> 00:42:21,838.5093744
And maybe Erin's interview gave the jury a human moment because she was rattled.
682
00:42:22,258.5093744 --> 00:42:32,333.5093744
But court in lies, and when you're caught in lies, maybe you lie to cover for the lie And that's the thing is what you were saying before, I guess you could suggest that.
683
00:42:33,998.5093744 --> 00:42:43,48.5093744
She is, was panicking because of the seriousness of it and not because of guilt or like in terms of wrongdoing.
684
00:42:43,318.5093744 --> 00:42:43,558.5093744
Yeah.
685
00:42:43,918.5093744 --> 00:42:46,348.5093744
And the other thing is that she did respond.
686
00:42:46,588.5093744 --> 00:42:51,328.5093744
She participated, she gave information when asked, she gave the traces of the meal.
687
00:42:51,378.5093744 --> 00:42:58,188.5093744
I think again, it'll be really interesting to see when presented all this information, how the jury digested.
688
00:42:58,188.5093744 --> 00:43:00,763.5093744
And we're not sitting in the courtroom, we're not seeing, no, no.
689
00:43:00,798.5093744 --> 00:43:02,178.5093744
The full presentation.
690
00:43:02,178.5093744 --> 00:43:05,328.5093744
We're just commenting based on the, what, where is available to us.
691
00:43:05,598.5093744 --> 00:43:06,168.5093744
Yes, exactly.
692
00:43:06,168.5093744 --> 00:43:06,468.5093744
Right.
693
00:43:08,658.5093744 --> 00:43:17,898.5093744
And what about Wednesday? Any other key things that happened? Midweek hump, hump day? No, I think that was just the key more information about what was searched and traced.
694
00:43:18,903.5093744 --> 00:43:23,193.5093744
Thursday, we saw some really big punches back from the defense.
695
00:43:23,193.5093744 --> 00:43:32,633.5093744
And someone, a very popular TikTok lawyer, commented that this was a masterclass in defense defense probing.
696
00:43:32,663.5093744 --> 00:43:33,593.5093744
And I was like, okay.
697
00:43:33,603.5093744 --> 00:43:37,343.5093744
That's quite a positive way to describe it.
698
00:43:37,373.5093744 --> 00:43:40,653.5093744
What happened? It was giving accolades is probably how I'd say, yeah.
699
00:43:40,863.5093744 --> 00:43:44,223.5093744
They did a lot of cross examination of the.
700
00:43:44,628.5093744 --> 00:43:57,678.5093744
Digital stuff that was seized and how it was analyzed and the limitations because the police didn't do full analysis 'cause it was so expensive and the defense were like, mm, well what didn't you miss? 'cause you were being cheap.
701
00:43:57,828.5093744 --> 00:44:01,278.5093744
So really critical evaluation of that.
702
00:44:02,958.5093744 --> 00:44:09,78.5093744
They did the subway CCTV and said, we're not quite sure that's her son in the footage of.
703
00:44:09,783.5093744 --> 00:44:11,703.5093744
Him being at Subway on this.
704
00:44:11,943.5093744 --> 00:44:15,573.5093744
So I remember hearing about a lot about that Subway thing this week.
705
00:44:15,603.5093744 --> 00:44:25,723.5093744
What's the relevancy of this? What's the subway instance got to do with this whole thing? Was it about her when she went shopping? It was about her behavior after the incident.
706
00:44:25,843.5093744 --> 00:44:25,963.5093744
Oh.
707
00:44:25,963.5093744 --> 00:44:27,193.5093744
So it was after it all happened.
708
00:44:27,313.5093744 --> 00:44:28,123.5093744
After it happened.
709
00:44:28,513.5093744 --> 00:44:35,688.5093744
And when she was saying I was really unwell and her watching her out and about and seemingly fine and this sort of saying away from the bathroom.
710
00:44:35,758.5093744 --> 00:44:36,48.5093744
Yeah.
711
00:44:37,238.5093744 --> 00:44:41,828.5093744
And also I remember hearing something this week about a Lego room.
712
00:44:42,608.5093744 --> 00:44:45,458.5093744
What was that about? Like a leg.
713
00:44:48,8.5093744 --> 00:44:50,678.5093744
She had this obsession with Lego so fascinating.
714
00:44:50,708.5093744 --> 00:44:53,528.5093744
And hours after the lunch, she was building Lego in her Lego room.
715
00:44:54,938.5093744 --> 00:44:55,958.5093744
What? Yeah.
716
00:44:55,958.5093744 --> 00:45:00,913.5093744
I mean we also have a mutual friend that's, we do have a mutual, beautiful friend that has Lego room, which is very impressive.
717
00:45:01,303.5093744 --> 00:45:03,13.5093744
It is insane and it's just, it's a hobby.
718
00:45:03,13.5093744 --> 00:45:04,663.5093744
So I don't think you can really take too much about that.
719
00:45:04,663.5093744 --> 00:45:08,3.5093744
But they were they made a point of saying after this lunch.
720
00:45:08,708.5093744 --> 00:45:11,938.5093744
She's gone to make a Lego in the liquor room, but also could be therapeutic.
721
00:45:11,938.5093744 --> 00:45:16,988.5093744
It could be, and if your tummy's not well, if your tummy's not well I, it's not far from the bathroom.
722
00:45:17,18.5093744 --> 00:45:18,308.5093744
It's a safe activity.
723
00:45:18,608.5093744 --> 00:45:18,698.5093744
Mm-hmm.
724
00:45:19,28.5093744 --> 00:45:20,468.5093744
It's a short sprint if you need.
725
00:45:20,523.5093744 --> 00:45:25,863.5093744
The other thing that said is that Erin's venting on the Facebook groups was just normal, more venting about your in-laws.
726
00:45:26,763.5093744 --> 00:45:30,333.5093744
It's just a bit weird to vent about your in-laws on a Facebook group with people you've never met.
727
00:45:30,603.5093744 --> 00:45:34,113.5093744
Don't you think? But she might not have had any other friends.
728
00:45:34,113.5093744 --> 00:45:35,43.5093744
They were her friends.
729
00:45:35,643.5093744 --> 00:45:54,403.5093744
And was the venting negative about the in-laws? It was frustration, but I think, we have our WhatsApp groups and we vent, but if you don't have any friends or you are, people's, some people have their world online, so I'm not really taking anything from that because I've definitely vented about people.
730
00:45:55,378.5093744 --> 00:45:59,368.5093744
We group, granted mostly people I know, but like I don't think you can really take anything from that.
731
00:45:59,368.5093744 --> 00:46:02,758.5093744
It's starting to paint a picture of me, of a woman who's quite lonely.
732
00:46:03,328.5093744 --> 00:46:04,948.5093744
Yeah, she's lonely.
733
00:46:04,948.5093744 --> 00:46:06,838.5093744
She's using the online to have company.
734
00:46:07,378.5093744 --> 00:46:08,8.5093744
Yeah, definitely.
735
00:46:09,388.5093744 --> 00:46:12,88.5093744
And then Friday we had the end of evidence.
736
00:46:12,88.5093744 --> 00:46:18,178.5093744
So the defense really leaned on the fact that there was no hard proof of the sim swapping.
737
00:46:18,703.5093744 --> 00:46:20,23.5093744
They said Erin was cooperative.
738
00:46:20,353.5093744 --> 00:46:20,593.5093744
Yeah.
739
00:46:20,723.5093744 --> 00:46:27,503.5093744
They said that the police searches were not thorough and they really focused purely on this one narrative of what they think happened.
740
00:46:27,503.5093744 --> 00:46:31,493.5093744
And they didn't think broader about what could have happened, other ways about it.
741
00:46:32,163.5093744 --> 00:46:39,63.5093744
The defense confirmed that they're not gonna be doing any further witnesses and Erin will not be testifying, and then they had some procedural matters.
742
00:46:39,63.5093744 --> 00:46:42,543.5093744
So next week will be closing arguments and jury deliberation.
743
00:46:42,933.5093744 --> 00:46:44,73.5093744
I'm really excited.
744
00:46:44,643.5093744 --> 00:46:45,3.5093744
Yeah.
745
00:46:45,3.5093744 --> 00:46:48,663.5093744
Potentially next week we can start to do our debrief on what's happened.
746
00:46:48,663.5093744 --> 00:46:49,533.5093744
If we have an answer.
747
00:46:50,83.5093744 --> 00:47:15,655.176041
And explain this to me because I feel like you are more experienced and watching court cases, but at the end when they have their closing statements, is this, when you, see the narrative that each sides are conveying has happened? It is, but it's not performative like in the US It is just a summary of the evidence and their interpretation of the evidence and their criticism and critical evaluation okay, so it's more fact it's, yeah, less and less bells and whistles.
748
00:47:15,745.176041 --> 00:47:15,775.176041
Okay.
749
00:47:15,775.176041 --> 00:47:23,925.176041
And then the judge will also summarize the case for the jury and provide instructions to the jury on how they proceed with their deliberations.
750
00:47:24,585.176041 --> 00:47:25,305.176041
Oh, I can't wait.
751
00:47:25,575.176041 --> 00:47:25,965.176041
Mm-hmm.
752
00:47:27,45.5093737 --> 00:47:27,315.5093737
Gab.
753
00:47:27,315.5093737 --> 00:47:29,355.5093737
I think that's all we've got time for this week.
754
00:47:29,355.5093737 --> 00:47:35,835.5093737
We've been breaking down AI and dating Debon Hughes Heartbreak, digital Snooping, and the latest from Death Cap Diaries.
755
00:47:36,105.5093737 --> 00:47:38,85.5093737
If you like the episode, rate and review us.
756
00:47:38,85.5093737 --> 00:47:39,525.5093737
It really helps us keep spinning.
757
00:47:39,738.8427071 --> 00:47:40,608.8427071
Catch you next week.
