Transcription:

Tim: Jimmy James?

James: Timbo, I’m calling you on your mobile.

Tim: You are?

James: How about we do an episode?

Tim: (Laughs) It’s very clever how technology is such an enabler.

James: Yeah, I’m using Skype, where I can just dial a phone number. It’s what I use when I’m overseas.

Tim: My kids accuse me of being stuck in the 80s, but I reckon you’re a man of today.

James: I’m a modern marketer. I have Skype, and I’m prepared to use it.

Is the internet here to stay?
Tim: And if any of this does go to where, I’ve got a little insight, which I think this Internet thing will take off, and we’re proving it.

James: You reckon the Internet’s going to be more than just a fad?

Tim: I think it’s here to stay. Come on, what kind of question is that?

James: Well, I have a vested interest in it. I couldn’t do what I do now as easily, but my great grandfather was doing a similar business model to me, just doing it a little bit more manually.

Tim: Yeah, right. Well, you do have a very vested interest in it. I have a vested interest in this thing called the Internet, and you know, if we look at it that way, we’ve got all our eggs in one basket. Anxious?

James: No, because if the Internet broke tomorrow, if we go all Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, then I think I could go and do something else, like teach market farmers how to sell more vegetables, or get into the gold bullion trading business or something.

Tim: I’d love to see you go out on the land and teach the farmers. Because I reckon that a flannelette shirt would become you. Flannelette shirt, moleskins, R.M. Williams, and a little bit of hay just sticking out the side of your mouth, Jimmy.

James: That’s a time warp. I used to have flannelette shirts, I used to have a utility, and I do have R.M. Williams that were well-worn, like in those advertisements. They were literally down to stitching.

Tim: When I first met you, you were on the land. You were on some land.

James: I was, on acreage, that’s right.

Tim: You were on acreage, you had snakes in the horse barn and you had a rifle range across the road, from memory.

James: Yeah, it was all happening. I prefer the surf, just quietly.
