Speaker 1 (00:01):
There's one picture with no context and two comedians with
no clue. This is Picture Discuss. In this episode, an
older woman is standing on a busy street wearing nothing
up top but her brazire and a police officer doesn't
look happy about it. What events have left to this moment?
Will Nikki Britten and Justin Hamilton be able to tell
(00:24):
us here the answer at the end of the show.
Now here's your host, Merrick Watts.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Welcome to Picture Discuss, the podcast where we discuss pictures.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
And you can find these pictures on.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Our Instagram Picture Discuss or you can find it in
the show notes. Justin Hamilton, Nikki Brittain welcome, Thank you sir.
All right, Nikki, let's kick it off here. Have a
look at this picture. There's an authority figure there and
oh there's a woman I just noticed then she doesn't
have a top on it.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Ye. Yeah, it doesn't catch the eye immediately, does it? No? Yeah,
this is this is clearly in Melbourne. I consider Glen
Iris Tram in the background there, well, good pick and
I can't help feeling that she's flying for the Melbourne
International Comedy Festival. Yeah, she's doing everything she can to
get people into her show, and I reckon, topless, she's
(01:17):
done better than I did.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
It's a hard marketing. It's a hard market.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
She's trying to find her angle in the market and
find ticket sales. Hamo, when you see this picture, what
what do you think is going on? I mean there's
as a police officer there seems to be directing her.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Is she lost or is he telling her something? I
reckon what she is is a big fan of Marcho Man,
the Village people down Under experience, and she has seen
this real policeman and thought that he's the cop from
Marcho Man. And she's ripped off her top to try
and get his attention, and the cop there is saying, no,
(01:58):
Marcho Man's down at the forum, which is this way,
and I think that's what's going on.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Look at her face like she actually looks a bit perplexed, almost.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Like she looks a little distressed. Does she know that
she's not wearing a top?
Speaker 4 (02:11):
I don't think it's a concern.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
But it looks like maybe like the copp is saying,
she's in madam, you realize that you're not wearing a top. Yea.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
She does have a very nice bra, and it's got
to be said. You know, if you get caught topless.
I don't know if this was intentional, premeditated, but if it,
if it wasn't, great Brad be thrilled.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Yeah, just a dress up bra. It's not a dress
up bra.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
But I've got to say, like everybody's got those bras
that like manking, like you never want anyone to know
that you've got those bras.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
The comfort bra.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
It's the bra you're wearing around home. If she's just
ducked out to do the groceries, like she's probably wearing
comfort bra.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
And this you got so interesting because there's the old
saying from your parents have always wear underwear. So you
get hit by a car and they have to take
your pants off, you got clean underwear, which for me,
if I get hit by a car, that clean underwear
is not going to be clean clean. But yeah, absolutely,
I'm intriguing this.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
You know, this comes from two gentlemen who quite frankly
don't even know how to under it with one hand.
So we don't for yourself, America, Yeah, I can, I
can ask that. I'm still I'm still it's not a
real cue.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
You know, this is maybe she's offering lessons, she's providing herself.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
This is this is like is it an evening bra?
Is this like, like I said, like a dress up bro.
She knows that this is going to be seen.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
When you say dress up, bro, do you mean like
you get a bit dressing you put a bra on
like this? Or do you bet a dress up bra
like I'm going you put a wig and a pair
of Elton John glasses on them.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Right, that's a real dress up.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
She's going out to dinner and she's gonna she's having
a nice night out.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
I think this is potentially for this lady. I think
is potentially you know, categorize her. But I reckon it's
a nice dressy bra. Yeah, well, I think maybe it
was primatitation.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
What I'm curious about is if that's a dress up bra,
what's what's going on with the pants?
Speaker 4 (04:12):
The pants are for comfort? You cannot You've got to
choose one or the other. Hammover, right, you.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Can't be So you dress upstairs and you go casual downstairs.
I think, so something's got to give.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
She's out in the middle of the street at some point,
she's done some steps, you know.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Yeah, absolutely, if you look on the side there. If
you read she's holding it says connecting over fifties throughout Australia.
And I have to say, you suggested she's over fifty.
I am suggesting she's definitely flowering for them at least
comedy is.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
I mean, it's not a catchy title, but it does
say the intention in there, and I like it.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
I like it.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Not far from the town hall, she's just around the
corner there. She also appears to be holding a sign
that says help, Help, Help.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Yeah, she's really desperate to connect. That's what she.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
She's desperate to connect over the fifties. Also help help, help,
and no, top she doesn't to be like you would think.
If she is with a police officer, that is someone
who is going to be able to help if she
is indeed needing help. So I don't know if this
belief police officer is awful and not offering help to
(05:20):
sweet lady.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Can I point something out? Just underneath the policeman's hand,
you can see another cop and the look on his
face is suck ship, Gary, I don't have to deal
with this. Yeah, yeah, don't you reckon?
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Yeah, there's a bit of that there's also what looks
like a news camera or some kind.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Of you're a big fan of that bra who's the camera?
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Yeah, could be an ad, could be an ad for
the bron could be an ad. So it feels like
this is potentially staged, you know.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Like that's a thing.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
I mean, yeah, he's a premeditated protest type kind of I.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Gotta say she looks fun to me.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I was going to say that him. Look, I'm looking
at her face. She's like I like her. Yeah, I
like that, Yeah, faces. I want to hang out with her.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
She's cool as someone who has entered his blue rinsed
beefcake phase. She looks like fun. Nicky and I were
talking about this recently. At the comedy store, I got
hit on by three women who were sixty five, and
it was fantastic. Yeah. The first woman came up to
me and she said, have you ever thought about dating
(06:21):
a sixty five year old woman? I said, I haven't,
not thought about it. She said, oh, we should go out,
and then her friend said, when you're finished with her,
you can come and catch up with me. And the
first girl woman turned around and said, hey, I'm hitting
on him, And the second woman said yeah, it was
not like you're going to be able to keep him
all night. And while they bickered, the third woman grabbed
me by the elbow, pulled me back and said, you
(06:41):
won't have that much fun with them, but if you
come over to my house with a bottle of wine,
we will get down to mischief. And I was like, yes,
life is. You're never going to be better than this
niche is. What's happening? You find your name Ace? So
I look at this woman and I think, well, what's
she doing later with a fancy bra?
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Okay, all right, maybe that's she was on the way
to the Justin Hamilton show to.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Help me get into Hammom, get into Hammo.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
She's got she's got a lovely looking kind face, she's
a nice Hey the copper and I'm not bagging out
the cops here, but that bloke looks too much like
a young Tony Abbott for my liking tough times.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
He done former prime minister with her yes, which is classic.
You know what I'm worried about is like we focused
on the hand that's pointing. What's going on with the
hand that looks like it's coming in for a little
spank on the bum, it's going to be appropriate. Nikki,
you're a woman like that hands just that I am.
I'm not confirmed you could?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
You would you see that hand there is that's kind
of like is it a showing a long thing or
is that I'm.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Gonna you know, I would back up into it to
be honest myself, but I don't know where she's at.
I don't know what she's asking for help for. Also,
what I love is that you can see the shirt
she was recently, I assume recently wearing a little zebra
number poking out of the very kind of ornate bad
that she's got. And it is it's a zebra print
(08:09):
and you've got it. I mean, I feel like animal
print after a certain age. You've got your your cheetah,
you've got your leopard, you've got your zebra.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
But you're always a cougar. Ooh, there it is.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
There's just a look at a certain age, animal print
is just everywhere, you know, you know, when you rock
up to brunch and it feels like a safari, You're like, okay,
I'm an age, now.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
What's going on there? Set? We're not. It's just there's
just some women kissing up for a prescia.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
I reckon, that's what's happened. She's come from a safari brunch.
He's told her to move along.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Do you have any animal prints?
Speaker 2 (08:49):
No?
Speaker 4 (08:49):
I actually have a firm no animal print policy, really
I do.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Was there a bad animal print experience in your youth?
Speaker 4 (08:56):
For do you know why? Because I went to Taronga Zoo.
If anyone ever has a been to torong As, it
was a kid and they had the slow snow not
the slow leaponds, the snow leopard enclosure and it was
so exciting because snow leopards had come to Sydney, very
unfair to.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Be heah, yeah, yeah exactly.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
And they had a very kind of graphic explanation of
why snow leopards were endangered. People liked to wear what
snow leopards were wearing.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
You know. So, do you reckon that's real zebra that
she's got there?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
No, absolutely not, but that I can't even actually come
at anything like an animal.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Okay, that's fair enough.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
She looks as though she's a little perplex as to
what she's been told, Like she feels like she's maybe
going about her business. Yeah, and he's being a little
bit forceful.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
I reckon. She does look quite confused, like as though, Hey,
I'm just out here in my bra, what's your problem?
Think she genuinely thought that she was doing a good
thing by connecting the over fifties throughout Australia and now
very confused.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
I can tell you this that she is in fact protesting.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
That's why she's got the pamphlets and that's why she's
got the sign there in her hand.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
She is a protester, Melbourne lover protest. Oh sometimes at gigs.
That's great, that's it. So what do you reckon? She
could be protesting connecting over fifties throughout Australia. Help help?
Do you know what? I think?
Speaker 4 (10:25):
The despicable lack of housing and support for women over
a certain age in this country. I feel like that
maybe where she's at, and she's she's hit some desperate
times and she's prepared to take her shirt off to
attract some attention for the cause.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
She feels as though she's got a giving nature that
this is not about her, this is about other people.
She's going to do something for other people here. That's
why she's worn the nice bra. Yes, she doesn't want yeah, exactly,
She's not going to wear the bad bra, which is
representing other people. So she's put on the good brah
for that reason.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
I think she knew she was getting it out.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
That's an interesting theory.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Is it correct?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Probably not, but let's find out.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
This is Lilian.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
She was given an order by police to move off
the road at the pensioners protest outside Flint the Street
station in two thousand and eight.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Pensions Yep, yep, gosh, process protest. Because that bra is
very current. Is it sure it's come back? It's come back.
It was in then and then it went out, and
it's back in.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
How much can you update lace and a floral embroidery.
It's always going to be it's always going to be
in the palettes, So hang on.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
So if this was two thousand and eight and she's
over fifty, maybe fifty one fifty two fifteen years, she's
in my wheelhouse, yeah, mid sixties, absolutely, like I'm ready
to go.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
She's speaking right now. She's now reached Hammo. Wish she
was out before she was early fifties. Now she's at Hammo. Yeah,
this is Lilian and her and one hundred and fifty
others were protesting and disrupting traffic, the recent at that time,
recent federal budget that didn't include an increase to the pension.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
And knowing how the pension has gone, it was really successful.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Geez, what a picture which makes me.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Think that also to what was possibly Tony Abbott for real, like,
I mean, it's not yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
True, right along, Smell the breath. If there's onion on it,
that's the man.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Is it too much to say that this protest might
have been called drugs for Justice?
Speaker 4 (12:45):
Absolutely not. In fact, if I reckon, you should have
worked with them. The protests may have been more successful
if you'd workshopped a few titles for justice, titties for
old timers, I'm.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Not sure, titties for committees for committees. Yep. Well, I
think we've mailed it. I think we figured it out.
We know what Lilian has done there.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
She has started a phenomena that unfortunately only ended with
one hundred and fifty people. But it was a good protest, nonetheless, a.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Good protest nothing and one, honestly, Lilian, that we could
do with again. I reckon, with the bra out, get
the streets, yep. Now is your time to shine. I
think things could turn around.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
And You know what, if you're tired and you don't
want to protest anymore, just go and see how I
do some stand up and approach you.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Mafter was at the comedy store. Nothing to protest about it.
I'm open to it.
