Speaker 3 (00:26):
So this was the headline from earlier in the week.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Keen to cool off, shoes, socks and shirt quickly ditched
before its time for a dip ching's swimming This man
unwinding in a pool that isn't his. In fact, he
doesn't know the owner at all.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
So there was CCTV footage of a bloke taking a dip.
He'd been for a run, clearly took the headphones off,
shirt off, shoes off and jumped into somebody else's swimming pool.
And he's been all over the news the last couple
of days and handed himself into the police to say
it's me. I did it on the pool guy and
(01:02):
he joins us in the studio.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Now get a Matt, Hello Brisbane.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Now you've already tried to butter us up by wearing
a Bronco shit it. I hope it will go soft
on you, but I got to say someone like, as
someone who's got a pool at home, it's pretty disgusting.
The idea of me coming home and finding a random
bloke who'd been for a run and not showered off
swimming in my pool. I'd be really pissed at you.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Why did you do it?
Speaker 5 (01:29):
Mate?
Speaker 6 (01:31):
To be honest, I have no idea. I have no
you know, like it was just a silly mistake. And
you know, like I wasn't really thinking at the time.
I thought it was a model home. I thought it
was empty. I didn't think anyone lived there, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
So that's you were going for a run. I was
going for a.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Jog and then what you were getting hot and you went,
there's a.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Pool, simple man.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
So you didn't like there would have been furniture and
stuff in the house. You wouldn't have You didn't think
that there was someone's house.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Well, I guess like you know that in display homes.
Speaker 6 (02:10):
I know there's furniture in houses in display homes as well,
And so to me that wasn't an indicator that someone
was living there. I just thought that it was a
you know, I just thought it was a display home.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Which, yeah, did you see cameras because that's how you
were caught. There wasn't anyone at home that came out,
was there.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Well, I need to be careful. What I need to
be careful how much I give away? Why is that?
Speaker 6 (02:35):
But well, the first time that I went, there was
no there was no cameras.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Oh, you did it twice, so four times?
Speaker 7 (02:41):
Yeah, you did have four times.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah, I know, I'm a I'm a grub. I'm a grub.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Well, I mean, I do feel, like I was saying,
I feel like when it's your own pool, you feel
like it's part of your basically your bath, it's your
own water space at home.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
So you don't have a pool at home. I don't
have a pool at home.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yeah, okay, but you would find that pretty gross, don't
you reckon to find someone else in your pool?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Yeah? Definitely? What did you think about that? Because I
don't have a pool. But here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
If if you realized that cameras had been put in,
So the first one or two times you did it
and there were no cameras and then you saw cameras,
surely that tells you that's not a like a home someone's.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
So I didn't know.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
I didn't notice the cameras until the last time, right,
and then you stop And then.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
So that was the last time that I went, was
when I.
Speaker 8 (03:39):
Saw the camera's when they got that shot of you,
so I was yeah, I was like, oh then you yeah,
so that's that's the footage where I'm looking up at
the camera.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I kind of like, hello world.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
So you came forward to the police to say it's
me Like what but what would you like You haven't
been able to speak to the owners of the house.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
What would you like to say to them? Look on.
Speaker 6 (04:02):
The interview made me feel distraught that I'd made anyone
feel unsafe.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Which interview you mean on channels sorry.
Speaker 6 (04:10):
Of the owner coming forward and saying that it's weird
and you know, it's gross and that they feel She
said she felt like violated. Yeah, you know, unsafe for
something along along those lines. And that's completely understandable. You know,
everyone's house should be their own sanctuary, should be their
(04:31):
own place of privacy.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
And I violated that and that's that to me?
Speaker 6 (04:39):
Is that made me, you know, I was gutted, you know,
because I thought it was an empty house and people
can have their opinions and you know and say he
knew the whole time.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
So you're not doing this for publicity. I'm one hundred
percent not doing this for publicity.
Speaker 6 (04:55):
And people like in the comments people have been saying
it's a publicity stunt.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
He knows the owner.
Speaker 9 (05:04):
You can generally, you can genuinely feel like how nervous
are and how sorry. I just listen to it all
honestly genuinely feel it, and I think this is the
same feeling you would have had at home when you're
sitting there and just when you're seeing it and when
people realize it.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Was you and your but like it was yeah, yeah
it was. It was full on. Did you go off
because they were looking for you?
Speaker 10 (05:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Yeah, well mate, all night my phone well I didn't
even I didn't watch the news, so I didn't know
until later on my phone started going off and I'm
checking and it's the boys saying mate, like you're like
you're on the news and sending me the links to
to the to the to the the story.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
And I didn't sleep. I didn't sleep three days.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
Yeah, yeah, I was like because you know, like the
I was like, this is my life's over, Like I'm
going to jail, I'm getting you know.
Speaker 9 (05:58):
Yeah, I just didn't know what to do.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Yeah, thirtys if you want to get involved with this chat,
like what do you what do you think.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
About what Matt's done.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
That seems like a genuine apology to me, and I
hope that the owners of the house are listening, because
I'm sure that that goes a long way to making them.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
To make a difference to you.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
It does, I can tell.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
I can tell that Matt's sorry, and the fact is
that he didn't want to come in today, like so
the thought that he's doing it for publicity shows like
he would have been dying to get on air, but
he was like, I just I want to go to ground.
But you had You had the courage to come in
here and say sorry and say it on air, and
I think that goes a long way.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
I wish more people would do that, Matt. Honestly, we
see so many high profile people.
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Just denying, denying, denying, and you know what when someone
genuinely says sorry but open to your opinions. Thirteen one
oh sixty five, Christie Vomo, Hi ah.
Speaker 11 (06:51):
Hi, how are you when you.
Speaker 7 (06:54):
Know what?
Speaker 10 (06:55):
Mate? Good on you? Like, not good on you for
you know, going and doing what you did because in
the moment you had that thought, you did it. You
aptioned it. Okay, it's not right. You found out that
someone has been hurt by this when you owned it
like that is not easy. And there is a lot,
there is a lot in this world that we wing
(07:15):
a bit about, but no one ever stands up and
says thank you, like thank you for owning your behavior.
And we as teachers are trying to teach our kids.
It's okay to make mistakes because that's how you learned,
but you need to own it. And you're coming on
the radio fac seeing Robin, Kip and Coory, that in
itself is hard enough. Just say look, I'm sorry on
(07:40):
national radio. Mate, I am so proud of you.
Speaker 12 (07:43):
Good on you.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Ah, thank you so much. That means the world to me.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Christy, We like, don't tell us which school, but what
age kids do you teach?
Speaker 10 (07:53):
So I'm currently doing year six, so I'm just about
to graduate.
Speaker 12 (07:57):
So I'm on my last.
Speaker 10 (07:57):
Placement and I'm doing year six and we are trying
to teach those kids. Well, I have a big philosophy
you need to make mistakes because.
Speaker 11 (08:06):
We all learn from them.
Speaker 10 (08:08):
And there's too much negativity about or made a mistake? No,
make it, but yeah you made it and you owned it.
Speaker 7 (08:14):
Good on you.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Yeah, thanks Christine, thank you. Thirteen one six five is
our number if you want to get involved.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Do you have a pool kit?
Speaker 3 (08:22):
I do have a pool.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
What's your addressment?
Speaker 3 (08:24):
You may not come around made, although I've got two
kids so it's pretty.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Full of you have a whole other time exactly.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
But we're inviting everyone's honest opinion because this has really
divided our city. Thirteen one oh sixty five Rachel of
thilln Lands. What do you reckon?
Speaker 12 (08:42):
Oh look, Matt, I saw you on TV yesterday and
I thought, yep, okay, you've gone for a run, gone
for a jump in the pool, understandable and our hate.
But this morning you've done it for me. I'm on
the wrong side of the fence now because you didn't
just do it once. You did it four times. So
(09:02):
I can forgive you the first time and great that
you've ound up to it, but to do it four
times you've lost my respect.
Speaker 6 (09:08):
Now, I'm afraid, and that's that's fine. Like I mean,
like I found my private pool, that's all. Uh No,
so in a way, in a way, in a way.
So I didn't mean that how I said it. So
what I what I meant was I found what I
thought to be a display home.
Speaker 12 (09:30):
So I thought it was, well, you did it more
than once. You know, once i'd forgive, but four times, nah,
I think you've done the wrong. I mean, great that
you've owned up to it. But after four times, I
just think you've done it once, you got away with it,
you feel it great, going to do it again, going
to do it again, going to do it again. It's
not on.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
But Rachel, what's he supposed to do now?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Though?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Like, he can't change what's happened.
Speaker 12 (09:53):
Oh no, it definitely can't change what's happened. And he's
done the right thing and it's fantastic, and I think
it's great that he has come out and done Yep,
I've done the right thing. And like I said, I
was one hundred percent behind him until I heard him
say this morning. It wasn't the first time he'd done it.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Okay, Thanks so much, Rach. We value all opinion.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Sharon of Noogra, what do you reckon?
Speaker 11 (10:12):
Well, I think that he's genuinely sorry. I think he
thought that the house was empty. I think it's a
bit of a compliment to the owner that he thought
that the house looked like a display home. Happy someone said, yes,
you're going for a run. He was looking after himself physically,
a bit hot, and thought he'd go for a slim.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Find a girl.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Sharon leuscated James of thorn Lands.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
What do you reckon?
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Oh? Guys?
Speaker 5 (10:43):
Look, first off, I think the fact that you're there,
apologizing and owning it is a good thing. Where I
see the issue though, is this pure sense of entitlement.
Where I mean the fact that that you're considered that
the house was empty. The house was always owned by someone.
That is someone's sanctuary, whether it was the developer or
(11:05):
whether it was the people who lived in the home.
You invaded that sanctuary. I don't see the difference between
this and some of the issues that we had with
the young people in the community at the moment that
are breaking and entering. I mean, you still broke and
entered a sanctuary. And look the fact that the house,
whether you thought the house was empty or whether it
wasn't empty, I can't get past the fact that you
(11:28):
entire yourself to utilize a facility that belongs to someone
else permission.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
What do you think of that?
Speaker 2 (11:35):
What do you think of that?
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Man?
Speaker 6 (11:37):
James Matte I agree? I agree with him, mate, Like
I did the wrong thing, you know, like I didn't.
I wasn't thinking not the first time, wasn't thinking like
every time, you know. I just thought to me, it
was just a place where I could go for a
swim on my run that I thought was empty.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
There was no malice in it.
Speaker 6 (11:59):
I wasn't like, oh, you know, I honestly didn't believe,
not that it changes anything, not that it changes anything
at all. I honestly didn't believe that anyone lived in
this place.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I know, but that I mean, I do take on
board though, that is an entitlement.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
It absolutely is.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
And not that we're rewarding you in any sense, Matt
for what's happened.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
But Corey does have.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
A solution for the problem. You're using other people swimming pools.
Speaker 9 (12:25):
I do have one, and I genuinely, I genuine believe
you that you made a mistake. People make mistakes, people
aren't thinking sometimes and just it happens.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
But you've owned it, and.
Speaker 9 (12:34):
I appreciate you coming out and going forward and doing
all that. So I went and bought your pool. No,
you have your own house, see, and now you can.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
That is unbelievable. It's been wheeled into the studio.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
It's a Bunnings in front of ground.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
It looks like it's a sixth person pool. It's a
big pool.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
It's so heavy it had.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
To be wielding. Yeah, I don't know if I'm going
to be able to fit that in my boot for
the way.
Speaker 9 (13:01):
Home in the back seat.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
On one condition, Matt, you do not ever swim in
any on Elsa's pool unless you are invited, including my man.
Speaker 6 (13:21):
I've had enough. I've had enough torture for the last week.
You know, I'm for the rest of my life. Yeah,
I've learned my lesson. It's all done.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Okay, good on you, mate, Thank you, and thanks for
the pool. Thank you for the pool. You'll be able
to share that with your teammates.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Give your team a play.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Who you play for? Pine his beers. There we go,
let's go go nuts for it.
