Speaker 1 (00:01):
And Amanda gam Nation. Well, Brendan, we've received an email
here from Scott and I'll just read it out. It's
in its entirety. It says, Hi, there, I've been listening
to your show since day one, but never contacted you
because I've never had anything worth addressing until now. Since
moving to your new building, I've heard Jonesy make no
attempt to hide his desire to his binoculars to look
(00:22):
out over the harbor, and Amanda has constantly lectured him
on how it's wrong and creepy. I have to side
with Jonesy. While I don't use or even own a
pair of binoculars, I do like to go on Google
street View and Google on Google Earth during my free
time and pick random places around the world to have
a peek inside random people's houses, apartments, whatever. No malice intended.
(00:46):
It's simply because I'm curious about what people have and
find interesting all the different things people display and how
different their lives are from my own. As long as
Jonesy doesn't have his face pressed up against the window
and salivating other people doing aerobics outside the opera house,
or have his eyes bulge out of his head whilst
banging his head with a mallet, yelling a ruga to
some yoga studio that he can see from the office windows.
(01:09):
I say, let Jonesy do his thing. Hashtag let Jonesy creep?
I see the thing is? Can I just as I've
got a few things about this. You're you're not a
creepy guy. I know that. But for you to hold
the monoculars out the window and say I'm only going
to look at the harbor, and yet there's blocks of
(01:31):
flats between us and the harbor, I think that you have.
You say you're not going to look, But who do
you know if other people were doing the same? Who
do you trust? When he when he says here, when
Scott says he likes to look in people's houses on
Google Earth, how would he feel if someone was looking
through his lounge room window. If we all say I'm
not pervy, but I want to have a look, how
(01:51):
did you feel.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
There's a lot of surveillance these days. I've got to
admit there is a lot of surveillance, and how would you.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Feel about that surveillance being inside your home? You say
you're not a creep and I know that, but if
there was a girl in a bikini thinking she was
having a private sum bake on top of a building.
You'd be looking at it whereabouts.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I'm sorry you, we're just saying as an example, I'm joking,
don't do that face.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
No, you're not because she would you. It's not because
you would not. I would, Yes, you would, I would.
Where does your you saying I just like to look
versus someone saying I thought I wasn't aware there were
any eyes on me?
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
How would you feel if someone Brendan had binoculars looking
in your window from a distance.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
If to see if everything's all right?
Speaker 3 (02:43):
That might have no trouble. My fellow man is interested
in me. That's that's basically Marthe was looking at your wife. Well,
you know, once again, is she all right? Is it okay?
She okay. I'm looking out on the harbor now and
I don't see.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
The beef with it. You know, I can see say
something happens, I can report adequately on what's happening.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But every single person, every single person who looks into
an apartment, I'm not saying I'm just looking at it. No,
but but other people would, and you would to you would?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
How could you resist with monoculars comes great responsibility.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And besides that, are you a responsible person?
Speaker 3 (03:22):
They don't even do a bikini girls story responsible.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
I'm very responsible, and they don't even do aerobic so
I style outside that opera house anymore.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
So you know you've looked.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Maybe this is something we could put to the whippole
a little bit later on. What about that?
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I think we might. I look rightly so, because you're
not a creepy guy. But if someone's we have, as
you say, it comes with responsibility. Yeah, and I don't.
I don't know where that lies.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
I think you're the problem here because this is in
your own mind. This is your own guilt, because if
you had the binoculars, you would be the one going, oh,
so it's you, it's not me.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
If there's a block of flats between as there is,
you always look at it. You look at that.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
You're obsessed with those people.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
If there's between that and the harbor, you're also going
to look everywhere.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I'm not going to look in the people's apartments. I
wouldn't do that. That's not my bag, man, that's your bag.
Have your own bag.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
It's like little sim City. We might put that to
the tribal drama bit later on Ye
