1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Jason Lawrence on over one hundred.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 2: We are not alone. The paper are in the house.

3
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:17,439
Speaker 2: Jason Lawrence, tell me what you know. That's right. We

4
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,159
Speaker 2: like to catch up with the police, who do a

5
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,119
Speaker 2: fine job here in Victoria.

6
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 3: But we like being on the right side of the law, Jace.

7
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 3: We love the police.

8
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 2: Seen your Constable Wallohan is joining us this morning. Good morning,

9
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 2: good morning everyone, Thanks for having me. Now you are

10
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 2: a police negotiator, yes, sick job.

11
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 3: Sick job, and you've turned up like fully decked out.

12
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 4: You're not a proper policeman.

13
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,559
Speaker 3: Many many accessories on there talk us through your you

14
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 3: get up.

15
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: So the kid I'm wearing is my standard negotiating uniform.

16
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: I didn't bring it in as a gag. It's literally

17
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 1: I'm on duty and so I may have to deploy

18
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,279
Speaker 1: to something. But we've got a lot of kid We've

19
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: got tasers, we've got radios, we have long arms, we

20
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: have pistol and standard.

21
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 4: So when you say, like, whatever situation unfolds right now,

22
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,479
Speaker 4: you could be deployed too.

23
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: Yes, at any one stage in Victoria, we have a

24
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 1: minimum of two negotiators. I'm it with my two partners

25
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: for the day. We can get deployed to kidnapping, hostage situation,

26
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: suicide or crisis intervention and anywhere up to barricades and

27
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: sieges and even a counter terrorism event.

28
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 3: And so as a negotiator, at what point do you

29
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 3: get called in?

30
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: We usually get called in by police or law enforcement.

31
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: We don't get called in by members of the public

32
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: via triple zero. So the calls we get are when

33
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: police have tried and they've been unsuccessful, and that's when

34
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: they call us.

35
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 3: Right, you know it's serious when you're rocking up.

36
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: Usually it is, and it can be. But like any job,

37
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 1: it doesn't mean you can't have a bit of fun

38
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: with it. And it doesn't mean it can't be interesting

39
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: and fascinating.

40
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: And it takes on when you say have fun with it,

41
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 2: like as in with the person like, hey, come out,

42
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: we've all left, gotcha, No, we're here, we're just hidden

43
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 2: behind trees.

44
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: Well, I'll give you an example. I was on the

45
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: roof of the counting court. Was a man who had

46
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: a case on and it wasn't going in his favor,

47
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: and so he decided that he wanted to jump. I

48
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: was called out and the judge was talking to him.

49
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: The judge was negotiating. The judge said to me, you're

50
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: only going to make this worse. And I said, well,

51
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: with respect, sir, when I walk into your courtroom, you're

52
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: in charge. Yeah, I am now in charge, and I'm

53
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: going to ask you to step aside. Please. It's time

54
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 1: for us to have a go. And so I started

55
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: talking to this man and he was an interesting fellow.

56
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: And he said to me, after about three hours, if

57
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: you make me laugh, I will come down and surrender.

58
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 1: So I gave him a joke.

59
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: What was you going to Jake?

60
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: Now this bear in mind, this is not, you know,

61
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: one from the playbook. No, this is this is a

62
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: daytime joke. But it's your experience may vary. But he

63
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: thought it was funny. So I'll go to you.

64
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 2: Okay. So I'm on the roof. I've been there for

65
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 2: how long?

66
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 1: About three hours?

67
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: Right? Knock knock? Who's there? Dishes? Dishes?

68
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: Who dishes?

69
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 2: Sean Connery.

70
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 3: Got him off the root?

71
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 2: It did?

72
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: It did? And then what's funny?

73
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 2: Do you think he felt sorry for you?

74
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 3: I think you did give it a ranch.

75
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 2: I mean, how do you train for this? Is it

76
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 2: at home with the wife?

77
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: Well, my beautiful wife is she always says to me,

78
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 1: you can negotiate hostages, you can negotiate kidnappers, but you

79
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: can't negotiate our two kids.

80
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, that's that was my next question actually, because like, yeah,

81
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 2: you've got a couple.

82
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: Of kids, yes, and a wife.

83
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: I don't know what's harder to negotiate with the time.

84
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: Well, the running joke at our place is I sometimes

85
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: do feel like a police hostage negotiator, like trying to

86
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 2: toalkin eight year old out of a car they've locked

87
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 2: themselves in the car on the driveway because god forbid,

88
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 2: I dropped an eminem and he won't come out unless

89
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 2: I go and buy a new pack.

90
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 3: But I have a feeling, Jason, that you may not

91
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 3: keep your cool like a police negotiator because you must

92
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: have to stay so calm. Are there things that just

93
00:03:58,520 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 3: make you blow?

94
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: Like yeah, absolutely, Like any sort of policing role. If

95
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: there's anything involving children and anything involving people that can't

96
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: protect themselves, that's going to affect you, that you would

97
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: be You shouldn't be in this job if it doesn't.

98
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: So you just got to find coping strategies. You've got

99
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: to find ways to deal with that and you have

100
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: to find ways to be vulnerable with your colleagues. So

101
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: my mum always said to me, be kind to people

102
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: because everyone is suffering a battle that you know nothing about.

103
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: And I think it's just a nice little line that

104
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 1: I remember to know that I haven't walked in anyone

105
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: else's shoes, and be kind.

106
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 3: But do you ever yell? Surely erasive voice.

107
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: I've realized that our bodies are our brains because we

108
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: do a lot of psychology, and we did with psychologists

109
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: a lot, and our brains are attuned to certain frequencies.

110
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: And so I have noticed that yelling at my kids

111
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: is not a good idea. But if you whisper, If

112
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: you whisp at your kids, their brain locks onto that

113
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: frequency and they will.

114
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 2: Actually I've done that, but it's normally at Westfield. We

115
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 2: can beg the car and no one's around. I can

116
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 2: tell you knew Bladdy.

117
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 3: Listen then let me tell you And does we spring

118
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 3: work for husbands as well? Oh yeah, okay, no yelling.

119
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 2: At your back up. If the Sean Connery didn't make

120
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 2: him laugh, please get down off the roof. Please, Hey

121
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: what movie? No no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

122
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 2: genuine question, what movie? Or TV show would be the

123
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 2: most realistic, realistic representation of what you do.

124
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 4: Stingers, phone Box, water Police.

125
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 2: Like Negotiated was on the other night that movie with

126
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 2: Kevin Space, that's right, should have back someone else there.

127
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: But there are a few movies that are that are

128
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 1: very inaccurate. Inside Man with Jens Washington is it very

129
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: inaccurate but very entertaining. So we don't swap ourselves for hostages.

130
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: We don't tape a gun to the back of our

131
00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: head and go into a stronghold like die Hard. That's

132
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 1: you're getting there.

133
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 2: With Thomas Police a couple of rules, though, you won't

134
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 2: swap yourself for a hostage. Yes, what about revealing personal

135
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 2: details about your life?

136
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: That's a really good question. So we call that associations.

137
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 1: So for example, if you give, so reciprocity is giving

138
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,559
Speaker 1: and giving in return. So by me giving a little

139
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: bit of myself to you, we build a connection and

140
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: realize we're not so different. So that's that's something we're

141
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: actively encouraged. But you have to have your own line

142
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: in the sands. So I'm not going to go up

143
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: to you. I'm not going to tell you know an

144
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: anti social hostile person with a firearm where I live. No,

145
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: we never like that's our currency because even if if

146
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: you're dealing with a really bad person, that person still

147
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 1: has to trust you. They don't have to like you,

148
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 1: but they have to trust you, and so trust is

149
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 1: won by the inch and lost by the mile.

150
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 4: Lee.

151
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: Here's a question. Say if I barricaded ourselves in the studio, right,

152
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 2: and so we're not coming out, and I asked for

153
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: food to be sent in, is there like like as

154
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 2: long as it's nothing dangerous, like, will you send in

155
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 2: any request?

156
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: Well, it all depends on what your leverage is. So

157
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: if you're inside a room and we don't need that

158
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: room for the day, I'd probably be saying no, Ja wouldn't.

177
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: episode of Police Life The Experts. That's right a podcast

178
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 2: done by Victorious Police. That's a great idea. That's awesome.

179
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 2: So do you guys showcase different roles in the force

180
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 2: in the podcast? Yeah.

181
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: It was brought about by wanting to actually say to

182
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: people there are many more things than just working the

183
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: divisional van or doing full patrols in uniform. You can

184
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: do so many things. There's water police, there's forensics, there's

185
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: detective units, there's tactical units.

186
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 2: And you have a good rig to be on the

187
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 2: jet skis for the water police.

188
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: I would imagine. So that's why I'm yeah, you know, you.

189
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 2: Want to look good.

190
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 3: All the water police aren't getting around with.

191
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: Their top side now on the jet skis.

192
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 3: They should, No, they're not.

193
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: Okay, Hey, our number is thirteen twenty four to ten.

194
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 2: Lee is happy to answer any questions. This morning. You're

195
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 2: a police negotiated We're just having a chat during the

196
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: song before about how long a siege or a hostage

197
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 2: situation can go on for. What's one of the longest

198
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: you've done.

199
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: So we did one in a place called Snake Valley

200
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,079
Speaker 1: about ten years ago. It went for three four days.

201
00:08:58,600 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 3: Wow, An are you on the whole time?

202
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 2: I was there?

203
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: But not always on duty because you have to sleep,

204
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,559
Speaker 1: you have to rest, and you have to also wonder

205
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: when you're being effective. And I work in a team,

206
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: the most amazing team in Victoria, if.

207
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 2: Not the world. We're a word.

208
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 1: Leading organization on negotiating and we do it full time.

209
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: So you share the load and you work collaboratively with

210
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: your colum.

211
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 2: But is that hard? Like I say, if I'm the

212
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 2: one with the gun, for example, I built a connection

213
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:24,959
Speaker 2: with you and now you're like, how I'm going to

214
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 2: go and have a nap. This is Clint. I don't

215
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 2: want Clint. I want great chat, a terrible chat.

216
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: Well, that comes down to what you want versus what

217
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: you actually need. And so what you want is different

218
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: to what you need.

219
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 4: Speaking which do you use the media at all because

220
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 4: they could be watching their teley, they could be listening

221
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 4: to their radio.

222
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 1: We do, and in the old days you were just

223
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 1: to change someone's phone number, you know, and so that

224
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: they couldn't call out. The average person out has four

225
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: or five six devices of which they can communicate. So

226
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: you need to be engaging. You need to be the

227
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: person that they need, not what they want. Times that

228
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: person might say I want I want a seven forty

229
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: seven and I want two hundred thousand dollars and an

230
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 1: extra fo they actually.

231
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 3: Do that say I want a million dollars in helicopter.

232
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 4: Absolutely no way, because they're chasing well, some are chasing

233
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 4: fame right because they know they're getting the coverage, they're

234
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 4: getting the clicks.

235
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 1: But in the end, what it comes down to is

236
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: you give them what they need and they forget what

237
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: they want. So for example, my child, I want.

238
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 2: To get a bit of paper.

239
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: My child says I want this lolly, or I want

240
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: this or I want that, And what they actually need

241
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 1: is a sense of they're seeing you walking around the

242
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 1: supermarket making decisions and picking up things and they just

243
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: want to do what you're doing, and they need to

244
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: feel part of that so you let them.

245
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 2: Feel the powering them.

246
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: Yes, give them what they need, not what they want.

247
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 2: Okay, So I get them to do the shopping and

248
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 2: I stay Hume, That's what I got out of that.

249
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 3: So hang on, I know we need some more specifics,

250
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 3: We need more help because I feel like every parents

251
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 3: absolutely what you say, Oh darling, why don't you go

252
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 3: pick out the cereal?

253
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: Yeah?

254
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 2: Absolutely.

255
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: You involve them in the process, make them feel like

256
00:10:58,480 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: they're actually part of it. And that's what we do

257
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: it a siege. We involve the person in the process.

258
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: And so how this day ends is entirely up to you.

259
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 1: You are in control, but the way you think the

260
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: day is going to end is not actually accurate.

261
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 2: But these are options. So calm, isn't he?

262
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 3: I know, Lee, could you come and live in my

263
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 3: house for a wenk?

264
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 2: I was just thinking, are you going to use this

265
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 2: tactic on Paul? Paul, you can pick whatever you want

266
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 2: off the menu of the restaurant I've picked.

267
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 3: No, But see, I do things like that. I give

268
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 3: him two options, like an outrageous one that I know

269
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 3: he's never going to go for, and then the one

270
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 3: that I want.

271
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 2: Oh, I thought you mean bringing in a third. Let's

272
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 2: go to Sarah. I'm thirteen, twenty fourteen. Sarah, you are

273
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 2: on the line with Lee your chance to probe the paper.

274
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 2: What's your question?

275
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 3: Good morning, guys, welcome back, break to your boys, Thank you,

276
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 3: thank you.

277
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:45,599
Speaker 1: I've got to do it.

278
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 3: Eighty eighth C. And Rishi is lying, and it's sort

279
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 3: of knowing where I mean.

280
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 1: I respite that all the time, so I'm used to

281
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: now her lying, But it's how do you get them

282
00:11:58,360 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: to stop?

283
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,719
Speaker 2: How do you spot a line in a hostage negotiation.

284
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 1: I think what you've got to do is you've got

285
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: to learn how to reward the good and then ignore

286
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: instead of punish the bad. And so what I recommend,

287
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: especially with lying, it does, unfortunately start with us. We

288
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: lie to our kids all the time. We lied about

289
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,079
Speaker 1: We lie about everything. We all lie, don't we, And

290
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 1: so they it is a learned behavior. It's not something

291
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: that they are born with. They learn it. And so

292
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: I know this is going to sound like a non answer,

293
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: but one of the best ways to do is lead

294
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: by example and show to them. I'm going to tell

295
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: you something now that you're not gonna like. I'm going

296
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: to tell you something that you don't want to hear,

297
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: but it's the truth.

298
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 2: Your shot.

299
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,359
Speaker 3: Jason is in trouble. God, you lie about everything.

300
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 2: Don't Isn't he good? Isn't he?

301
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 3: Jase lies about everything. We're a meeting yesterday and he said,

302
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I've got meetings at the kids' school. And

303
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 3: I sent him a text saying, you're such a liar,

304
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 3: I'll do the meeting.

305
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 2: Well, they wanted to do a zoom meeting.

306
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 3: It's your own fault that the kids are telling little

307
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 3: porky pies.

308
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 2: Well leave that segment went well, eye bloody. Am fascinated

314
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 2: be easy, and I can imagine it would be extremely

315
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 2: hard being on a job for a couple of days

316
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 2: and then having to go home and just like, how

317
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:33,720

Speaker 2: park the police job at work and be dad at home.

319
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,520

320

Speaker 1: cherish your family, be honest and vulnerable with them, and because,

321

Speaker 1: like I said, everyone is fighting a battle that no

322
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: one knows anything about. So it's good to be vulnerable.

323
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: Come home, but don't bring those problems home.
