Transcript

[Podcast Host]

This is an iHeart podcast.

[Armstrong]

Guaranteed Human cleaning out the sound fridge and more.

[Getty]

It's one more thing, Armstrong and Getty.

[Armstrong]

One more thing.

[Getty]

Few things before we get to cleaning out the sound fridge that I wasn't able to jam into the radio show. Metallica has announced they're going to play the Las Vegas Sphere, which would be pretty cool. I'll bet they come up with a great visual package, which is what the Sphere shows are all about. I've been to this fear a couple of times and it is spectacular, man.

[Guest or Contributor]

I saw Metallica a couple of years ago and they are just incredible on stage.

[Getty]

Yeah. The Sphere experience is interesting for concerts because if you want to enjoy the visual part, you actually want to sit way far away from the stage. And if you're way far away from the stage at some point, it's like, why am I not just listening to this on the stereo? But the visual part is so amazing.

[Armstrong]

So was it your. Another friend who said that it can be kind of disorienting?

[Getty]

Oh, definitely. Yeah.

[Armstrong]

Yeah, you have to close your eyes sometimes.

[Getty]

I didn't have to do that. My kids did. But it's. It's super steep. You're way, way up high and it's super steep. And it looks like if you tumbled out of your seat, you would fall to your death. Yeah, I.

[Armstrong]

Not happening.

[Getty]

No, but the visuals just absolutely stink. Oh, and they. In the sound, it's got. I Forget what is 123,000 speakers or something like that. It's designed in such a way that the sound is exactly the same in the furthest away seat from the. The best seat, which I had for the Eagles. They all sound exactly the same and it's pretty cool.

[Armstrong]

That's a miracle of engineering. That sounds really, really cool. Yeah.

[Getty]

A couple other things.

[Armstrong]

Can you install, like, one section that's relatively flat

[Getty]

out and it's just like a concert? And then you look up and see the visuals. They're still cool, but not quite the same as if you're sitting up way high.

[Armstrong]

Yeah, fair enough.

[Getty]

Survivor, the television show, is still on the air and they open their 50th season tonight. 50th. And mostly I bring this up because Jeff Probst is still the host. I've never seen an episode of Survivor, and they do several seasons per year. It hasn't been on for 50 years.

[Armstrong]

Wait, the first season? Didn't you come on? Did I. With Naked Richard and I don't know

[Getty]

that I watched it. I think we played clips, but I don't know if I ever watched it. Jeff Probst, man, did he fall into a gig or what? Whoever the hell he was.

[Armstrong]

But isn't he the producer?

[Getty]

Maybe. I have no idea.

[Armstrong]

I think he was the brains behind. I could be wrong, but yeah, I found it entertaining as hell, like, once or twice, then thought, that's enough of that.

[Getty]

Young boy Never broke again. That's NBC. Young boy is. Is a rapper. That's NBC. Stands for never broke again. He's a big deal, I guess. NBC.

[Armstrong]

Wait a minute. How does young boy stand for never

[Getty]

broke again or NBA? I'm sorry, why was I saying NBC? It's NBA. Young boy. NBA young boy. I'm sorry. I said it makes sense. Now that makes sense. Now he is welcoming his 13th child at age 26. 13th?

[Guest or Contributor]

Oh, for the love.

[Getty]

13th child.

[Armstrong]

I can't even.

[Getty]

Unless your rack career continues to be successful, you're gonna have to change your name from NBA to QBA. Quite broke again. Because 13 kids is going to be very expensive. I'm just saying.

[Armstrong]

And of course, all those kids grow out, grow up without a father, active in their lives, probably.

[Getty]

Yeah. And then I was just looking at a series of jokes. Oh, this was some guy on Instagram who's got a feed. It's pretty good. He just grabs funny things off of posts and then puts them all in a row. It's entertaining. But here's one of them. Inside my stomach, there is a little duck who demands bread.

[Guest or Contributor]

I can relate to that.

[Getty]

I know. Me too. There's a little duck in there that really wants bread.

[Guest or Contributor]

That's a cute way to put it.

[Getty]

Yes.

[Armstrong]

All right, so the sound fridge. We've got a handful of audio that's really good.

[Getty]

That's Metallica right there. Metal guy. That's right.

[Armstrong]

They're gonna. That's their opening song. So we're gonna clean out the sound fridge and play you some of it. Let's start with number 10. Does this need any setup, Michael?

[Getty]

It's a Los Angeles food delivery service,

[Guest or Contributor]

and the robots are called Cocos, I believe.

Yeah, Cocos have been relentless. I heard a commotion. I came out here. I found the cocoa in my garden. It had got my fence caught up in its wheel. It, like, uprooted a whole bunch of plants in my garden and. And then just drove away with the fence attached to it. I chased after it, and I looked like a total crazy person, like, running after a robot in the middle of the street, like, yelling after it. I was, like, trying to block it, like, get in its way. And it was trying to go around me. These private companies can come in and like dump their technology in our communities and there's no sense of accountability.

[Getty]

Why were you trying to block the robot and chase it and yell at it?

[Guest or Contributor]

Because she's an up speaker.

[Armstrong]

It had her fence in her. Its clutches. I, I don't know. I, I read a piece, it might have been in the Journal about how in some markets like Austin maybe or Dallas, one of them, the airborne delivery drones are a thing. They're using them full speed ahead.

[Getty]

I do not understand how that can possibly work.

[Guest or Contributor]

I can't remember if it was doordash or what, but when they tried this in San Francisco with the food delivery robots and all the homeless people kept getting a hold of them and beating the just crap out of them and sitting on them and they stopped or

[Getty]

just grab the burrito out of its little metal claws.

[Armstrong]

Well, that's why you use an airborne drone. It just descends with the pizza to your front porch.

[Guest or Contributor]

That's cool.

[Getty]

Pick it up. And I was in LA, I saw

[Armstrong]

an R2D and the guy said your food gets there much quicker and much hotter than like a doordash can possibly do.

[Getty]

The flying thing. Oh, I don't doubt it. I just don't understand the how you're going to have a whole bunch of companies navigating that without crashing into each other. If you're the first company in, I can see how it might work. But are you going to get the rights to all the airspace for all of time? I don't know how that'll work.

[Armstrong]

Hey, roll the dice. It's more exciting.

[Getty]

I saw an R2D2 in LA going down the street with, with some food and I don't know how successful it was, but it looked like it was really having trouble navigating the cracks in the sidewalk.

[Armstrong]

And did it run into your fence and did it knock it down and

[Guest or Contributor]

then you had to chase that into the rain?

[Getty]

That's right.

[Armstrong]

And I tried to block out. Yeah, yeah, 11 just because I want to hear it again. Because my daughter has two cats and their brothers.

[Audio Clip Speaker]

I wanna know if my cats are gay or if they are brothers. I wanna know if they love each other, if they are lovers. Do I have gay cats? I want to know if my cats are gay. Do I have gay cats? If they are gay then that's okay. Do I have gay cats? Gay cats. Gay cats.

[Getty]

So is that a dude and a chick or is that AI?

[Armstrong]

Yeah, it sounded human to me.

[Getty]

It sounded human to me too.

[Armstrong]

Yeah, it was just flawed enough, which

[Getty]

is kind of interesting in its own way. Why does that sound like humans as opposed to AI? I'm not exactly sure, but. But it did sound like humans.

[Guest or Contributor]

Hanson. I apologize for the. For the bleep. But, Joe, I have ever since the One More Thing podcast from years ago forever called Cat Paws Mittens.

[Armstrong]

That's another My daughter Delaney ism.

[Getty]

Because of the. The tray that they use in your house.

[Armstrong]

The litter box. Yeah.

[Getty]

Running around your house with their little shipments.

[Armstrong]

Oh, boy.

[Getty]

Walking across your table and your keyboard.

[Armstrong]

Golly. Oh, your counter just keep going.

[Guest or Contributor]

Terrible.

[Armstrong]

Just terrible.

[Getty]

That is a funny term.

[Guest or Contributor]

It's so good.

[Getty]

Well, and you know. And it's a hundred percent accurate. Why do we put up with this?

[Guest or Contributor]

Yeah. They walk all over everything with their

[Armstrong]

living and everybody's fine. Except occasionally pregnant ladies. Beware. Yeah. Look it up. Moving along. Clip 25, please.

[News Reporter]

In Ohio, a wild discovery caught on camera. Dash cam video from police shows a sanitation worker emptying trash into a truck. When he startled to find a man hiding in the bin, the worker jumps and points to the police car behind him. As the man climbs out and flees, police say the suspect had just fled a traffic stop.

[Armstrong]

Our network news is now. Dash cam videos.

[Getty]

Yeah. Every night. I'm David Muir. And wait till you see what happened with. And it's just. Yeah, it's just a YouTube video of the day.

[Armstrong]

Yeah. And then weather. Speaking of people and garbage cans. 27.

[News Reporter]

A video out of Paris, Texas, going viral after a Whataburger manager used a trash can to take down an angry customer on Sunday. Police say the manager asked that angry customer to leave after he became verbally abusive and made threats to the staff. Investigators say the customer left, but then came back and punched the manager. The manager was able to force him out of the store. Eventually, that customer was arrested and charged with assault and public intoxication.

[Armstrong]

Good. And if anybody comes after that restaurant manager. Susan.

[Getty]

Whatever.

[Armstrong]

I swear to God, I oughta fafo, buddy. Huh?

[Guest or Contributor]

Yeah. Every single one of those thuds you heard at the beginning was the trash can hitting that guy over the head.

[Armstrong]

Perfect.

[Getty]

Awesome. People that lose it at fast food places, that's got to be its own special category of what the hell is wrong with you?

[Guest or Contributor]

It is. There are compilations on YouTube. They're hilarious.

[Getty]

Oh, yeah?

[Guest or Contributor]

Yeah.

[Armstrong]

They shouldn't be on the network news. I should watch them in my own time when nobody can see me doing it. Because really, they're super entertaining. And I usually fast forward to them on the network. I hate them. They're stupid, and I watch them.

[Guest or Contributor]

Well, I'm getting some little shoes for my cats.

[Getty]

Well, I guess that's it.
