Speaker 4 (00:27):
This is them riffing. This happens every week.
Speaker 5 (00:30):
I can see why you're intimidated.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
I know you're saying, you see what I'm up against.
Speaker 6 (00:34):
They are pros, they are I always wait, I wait
for this to unfold, because this is the podcast that
starts with some kind of original programming every single week.
We don't do no boring play it over and over
a theme song.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
We don't do that. We don't roll that way.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
And by the way, I just want to say that
extra voice you're hearing, Ladies and gentlemen, what the quds
husband ty thing.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Done?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Done?
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Welcome to the podcast. Welcome back, Welcome back. We forgot
the confetti cannons.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
But next time, yeah, next time, come on. What's going on?
Speaker 7 (01:11):
Well?
Speaker 6 (01:12):
The reason that Tyson was invited to this week's podcast
is because of a topic that came up on my
all time favorite morning show, which actually, ladies, you can
hear in the Bay Area. It's available here in San
Francisco and it's called Morning Drive with Christie Live.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
I tried to try to get it on me, trying
to get it in on the on the thing there.
So Christi and Karina.
Speaker 6 (01:47):
Who are the Morning Drive with Christie Live cru the
best morning show, not just in the Bay Area but
anywhere in the universe.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
You ladies were.
Speaker 6 (01:56):
Discussing Christie's stepping in too. If you don't mind, Christy,
I'm going to do it for you, stepping into the future,
which made me laugh so hard. So I said, this
is going to be such a great topic because Tyson
is also very into this experience that Christy James. You
(02:17):
had a Welcome to episode number which Karina two hundred
and thirty one, y'all of talk Talk with Martha Quinn
and now we begin. So Christy, why don't you talk
about that experience where you stepped into the future.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
So if you have not been to San Francisco, you
don't know that rolling around the streets of the Bay
Area there are a bunch of driverless cars. They're beautiful
white Jaguar SUVs and they say way Mo on the
side and yeah, I see your face, Martha, you're like jaguars. Yes,
they are beautiful white Jaguar SUVs.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
And you had mentioned that they're clean.
Speaker 6 (02:58):
What if the person be for you who had been
in it was big.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Litter bug, you know. I don't know. I couldn't imagine
someone taking a way Mo and messing it up. That
is a great question. I didn't even think of that. Yeah,
it was spotless, like sparkling clean. So I don't know
if they pick someone up and then roll someplace so
some like magic Genie can clean it, yeah, or if
they have people observing so they know if it's messed up.
(03:25):
But when I tell you I stepped into the future
and it was sparkling clean, I'm not even kidding you.
So my friend and I we were at a concert
in San Francisco and we had to go, you know,
not very far. It was just like five miles, and
instead of calling an uber or lyft, I said, why
don't we take a way Mo. I've never had a
weay mo, right, So we downloaded the app, put in
(03:48):
our credit card, super simple, and called the weay Moo
the same way you call an uber or lyft, and
the car showed up. And when it showed up, we're like, oh, okay,
there it is. You check the license plate, similar to
an uber or a lipt, and we ran across the
street and we're standing at the car. And we're standing
at the car and we're looking around and how do
(04:11):
we get in? How do we get in the car?
We don't know how to get in the car. And
on the app, it tells you, okay, there's a countdown,
the same way with an uber or a lipt. There's
a countdown to tell you how long you have before
your driver leaves. And the clock is ticking and it's
like the driver is leaving in two minutes, and we're like,
(04:33):
how do we get in the car? Though we've never
done this before, so we're like running around the car.
There's no driver to like unlock it for you. And
so my friend's like, look at the app. So I
opened the app and it says unlock the car. At
the bottom of the app there's a message, and I
(04:54):
click the button and like magic, all four door handles
of this beautiful Jaguar popped out and we entered into
the future.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
What if you had gotten into the driver's seat and
started going rogue.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
I think you can go into the driver's seat. You
can sit in the passenger seat in the front. I
always see people riding in the front seat. I think
you just won't be able to control the car. But
you're more than welcome I think to sit there because
it's still a seat. Yeah, it is very, very strange.
When you first walk in there, it's dark and it's beautiful,
(05:31):
and there's a magical voice that pops on right away
and it says, welcome to way Mo. This car may
seem like you've stepped into the future, but like any
other vehicle, ride, please buckle up for safety. And you'll
notice the large screen in front of you, and she
kind of breaks down everything in the car, and there's
this large screen that's kind of if you have an
(05:52):
electric car, if you've ever been in a Tesla or
another electric car, and now the screens are big, and
it has all of these buttons and touch screen where
you can pick music, and they had all different kinds
of genres or you can connect your own phone. And
then she says, feel free to sing along because well,
nobody's here except you'l.
Speaker 7 (06:14):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
And then your ride starts and they give you a
countdown literally a countdown clock to when you're going to
arrive at your destination, and you can share your destination.
You can share your ride, and it's very futuristic.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
Tyson's theory is that the days of teaching your teenager
how to put the car into drive, put the car
into reverse, stepping on the gas, saying to your teenager, stop, stop.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Stop, stop.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Don't you see that stop sign? That's all going to
go away.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I don't think it's going to go away anytime soon.
I know a lot of my friends I was really
excited about the Wai Moo ride and agree, yes, a
lot of them disagree. Karina said, no oh. My friend
Maya was like, it's a demon. I'll never do it.
My friend Blue was like, I will never You will
never ever ever catch me in that. A couple of
(07:09):
my friends were like, hmm, I'll give it another three
or four years before I test it out.
Speaker 7 (07:13):
Yeah, Tyson, what do you think about them?
Speaker 5 (07:15):
I think in one or two years that's it for
learning how to drive.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
No, I don't think so. I think it will take
longer because people aren't necessarily on board. Because you would
think that about electric vehicles too, Like who wants to
keep paying all that money for gas? But there's still
a majority of the country that is definitely not going
electric because they're like, no, I don't you know. I
(07:39):
never want to be stuck without having the chance to
buy gas. That's what people say.
Speaker 6 (07:44):
That's me because we have an electric truck, and he
wants to have our second truck be our car, be
a Tesla, and I'm like, no, we have to have
a gas car because what if, what if we can't charge?
I feel more safe having a backup gas car. He's
not with me.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
Martha hasn't driven the electric car in a year, the
year and a half we've had it, not all the time.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
You have to do that.
Speaker 5 (08:12):
I'm living in one decade and she's living in another
a gas car again, and she'll never drive the electric.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
We're gonna see Martha in a buggy, you know the.
Speaker 7 (08:24):
Here goes Martha.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Step into the future, Martha Quinn and report that next
week on the podcast, because it is a different ride.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
If anything, though, I would think it would make it
easier for kids to learn how to drive.
Speaker 7 (08:39):
That's what I think.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
Well, it's going to be like you don't teach your
kid how to drive a train, it's going to be
like that. You just get in and it goes.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
You know, I think.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
That's what I think. That's what I think your philosophy is.
Speaker 6 (08:51):
I just want to say that if I was going
to start a car company, rather than calling it way Mo,
I would call it Yamo because then, yeah, I'll be there.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Yes, missed that opportunity.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Wait what the James Ingraom, Michael McDonald, Donald Christy was
doing just an amazing job.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
I was just nailing it. I was nailing it there.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
I was watching all these videos on Tesla's that drive
themselves with the FSD and the next day we're in
the car and we're just driving down the street and
at some point I just stopped driving.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Yes, I've done that before my.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
Brain had switched to the you know you don't have
I've been watching all these videos and all of a sudden,
the car starts going off the road and I'm like, wait,
my car isn't.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Full minus and I've done it?
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Did this happen? Was I on the oh?
Speaker 7 (09:45):
Yours is?
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Yes? Mine is nice?
Speaker 4 (09:47):
I have you have a Tesla? No that's full self drive?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
No? I have the Hundai Ionic five, and the Hyundai
Ionic five has a feature. We actually used it when
we were wine tasting couple of weeks ago. Producer Karina
was driving my car and got pulled over and I
was like, just let the car drive itself. At least
we'll be able to get there without getting pulled over.
And it definitely drives itself. You push a button and
(10:13):
it stays in between the lines. It slows down based
on however many cars you want it to leave in
front of you, like spaces. But I don't think it's
going to go all that way one because of people
like Martha Quinn who don't want to step into the future.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
Oh you should have heard Tyson's mom going off about it.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
She's like, I.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Don't think so. No, I'm not comfortable. I don't think so.
And I was like, yeah, she's on my side.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
But I'm like, you know, she was born there there
were no TVs, and now she's sitting here looking at
something thinner than a wallet.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
I watch movies and it's like it's coming fast.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Like the what's called the taxi cabs, but the in
the air that's almost here.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Oh no, no, no, no, the flying taxis.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
Yeah, no, the flying taxis.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
The flying taxis, they're almost here. I don't know about
that either.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Why not you catch an airplane you do.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
But these are flying taxis meant to get you from
quick point A to point B.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
People take helicopters in LA same thing.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
It's fancy.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
I'm not so sure about that one.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
It's not going into the robots.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
I can't wait for my Optimist robots to.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
They do have show up. They robots are definitely here.
They actually are saying that robots in China right now
are making iPhones. So before it was kind of like, oh,
these are and these are not just robots, because you
have at factories different robotic arms creating things and moving things.
But these are actually humanoid five foot five robots. They're
(11:50):
walking around kind of like the Terminator. They look like
many versions of the Terminator, and they're creating the iPhones
and the they're not the company that's using these humanoid robots.
Now they are like three major companies that are actually
using these these devices, these humanoids.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
So Tyson, you want a robot w.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Is Yeah, I can't wait. I keep looking at Beeler
or dog and going I'm so sorry.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
Why because what is it?
Speaker 1 (12:18):
What is it that you wanted to do or what.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Well, just everything mm hmm. I mean they'll be the
robot dog that you don't have to think.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
They already got some of those they did, yeah, to
keep people company.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
I wouldn't mind having a robot that would clean my
house and do the dishes.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
I would definitely be okay with that.
Speaker 6 (12:36):
But I do worry, Christy when you talk about the
robots in the factories. I do wonder, you know, what
is left for humans? We need to feel purpose and
if all of our purposes are taken away by.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
Robots, what is to become of us?
Speaker 6 (12:53):
I feel like we're going to be like those people
And remember Wally where they had nothing to do the car,
you know, except sit on the deck of whatever boat
they were on or something. And you know, nobody got
any exercise, you know, nobody had a purpose.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
And I'm worried about that.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
What do you think, Christy, because you're always down with
stuff that's coming up in the future.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Well, I feel like the robots are going to take
away busy work because making an iPhone isn't connecting to
another human. It's work. It's creating work. But if you
have an opportunity to let a robot do that busy work,
you have more time to spend with your child, playing
(13:36):
with them or talking to them, or making memories with them,
versus making an iPhone in a factory all day long.
So I feel like it will free up your time
for more human connection and less busy work. And people say, oh.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
Well, this has been top talk with Martha Quinn. This
has been totally awesome.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Get out of here, Martha Quinn. Well, that's my fear.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
I just thowt whats the name of that? Those big
hobby stores, it's those things are just gonna explode.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yes, exactly, the hobbies lobby like dickporting, Michaels.
Speaker 7 (14:11):
Oh okay, okay, hobby lobby.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
How are we going to make any money to buy
these hobbies?
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Because people will come up with different different ways of
making money and different ways of connecting. Think about the pandemic,
how things stopped and people created new ways of doing
things and communicating and entertainment and what you know.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah, I just saw this, Martha, which might intrigue you.
There's a self sustaining It's called garden. It uses AI
to do everything to grow your vegetables in weeks. All
you have to do is add water and it takes
care of all the rest.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
Yes, I need that that that I need that quickly.
Speaker 7 (14:49):
I would use that grow my own veggies. Like, yeah,
vegetables are expensive.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
So there's not a robot can teach you language. So
you have a link which partner you're doing that right now?
When you log onto an app do a lingo to
learn a language, technically that's a robot that's true teaching you,
you know, so you're using it now more than you think.
Siri is Ai will.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
Be out there exploring the world through the eyes of
the robots and talking.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
To the What do you mean by that? Explain what
you mean by that?
Speaker 5 (15:21):
Well, you just feel like I want to explore China
today or Paris, and you'll just log in with your
goggles on into an Optimist or whatever robot in one
of those countries and you'll go take a walk.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
And this doesn't remind anybody of the matrix.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
We're just going to be plugged in and having these
virtual experiences and we'll just could be in a pod somewhere.
Speaker 7 (15:41):
Take the red pillar, the blue pill.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
It happens now like it is happening. Now. All of
the things that we're talking about is not the future technically,
because it already is. You know, virtual reality exists. You
buy the Metquest glasses and you literally can step into
Paris in a coffee shop and you're talking to someone
else across the globe in the same coffee shop and
(16:06):
you just have your you know, Avatar. So really all
of this exists right now. It's just more and more
people getting on board with it, and then it's just
moving faster and faster. But it is what it is.
But in the meantime, I'm here for it.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Mean thing, I'm pretty I'm open to some of the
robot stuff. I think that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
What are you most excited about, Tyson?
Speaker 5 (16:26):
Well, I want to try that way moo. I mean
I've still you know, I read about it, I watch it,
but I never have been in a self driving car.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
It was really nice.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
You can't wait.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
It was interesting not having someone listen in on your conversation. Well,
how do you know that though it's different. You know,
someone could be listening. We have an Alexa device. Alexa
could be listening to us.
Speaker 7 (16:46):
Right everything is listening.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Someone's going to be listening yeah, but it feels a
little different when you're just in there by yourself. Think
of it kind of as having your own plane to yourself.
How that would feel like, it's weird, pretty cool. It's
a really unique experience. And like I said, it was
a really clean, beautiful car, so that helps. But it
is nice to just not have to worry about the
(17:10):
driver and just have your friend or be by yourself
in the car.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
So you didn't have to tip the vile Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Do you?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I don't know because I didn't. I didn't go back
to the app afterwards to look, so I don't even
know how much it cost, but I think it was
only like twelve dollars.
Speaker 7 (17:30):
That's not bad.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
They put a twenty five dollars hold, but I don't
think it was twenty five dollars.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
So they said Harry Belafonte was making a song for
it before he passed.
Speaker 7 (17:40):
It's called way.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
She could not wait. She could not wait.
Speaker 7 (17:45):
Mo comeet.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
All right, that might be time to wrap things up,
Martha Quinn.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
I think that's a good place.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
I think, so right now.
Speaker 6 (18:02):
This has been Talk Talk with Martha Quinn featuring Karina
of Alaskaz, who is doing an amazing Harry Bellafante and Christy,
who gave us an amazing Michael McDonald earlier.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Gosh, thank you to Tyson.
Speaker 7 (18:20):
Thanks so excited. It was fun having you here.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
Pleasure to be here.
Speaker 7 (18:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
Well until next week the next episode of Talk Talk
with Marth Quinn. I'm Martha Quinn.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
I'm Christy.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Oh yay, I'm Karina Alaska's wait, we gotta get Tyson again?
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Go on, we gotta get Tyson again.

Speaker 4 (00:27):
This is them riffing. This happens every week.
Speaker 5 (00:30):
I can see why you're intimidated.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
I know you're saying, you see what I'm up against.
Speaker 6 (00:34):
They are pros, they are I always wait, I wait
for this to unfold, because this is the podcast that
starts with some kind of original programming every single week.
We don't do no boring play it over and over
a theme song.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
We don't do that. We don't roll that way.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
And by the way, I just want to say that
extra voice you're hearing, Ladies and gentlemen, what the quds
husband ty thing.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Done?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Done?
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Welcome to the podcast. Welcome back, Welcome back. We forgot
the confetti cannons.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
But next time, yeah, next time, come on. What's going on?
Speaker 7 (01:11):
Well?
Speaker 6 (01:12):
The reason that Tyson was invited to this week's podcast
is because of a topic that came up on my
all time favorite morning show, which actually, ladies, you can
hear in the Bay Area. It's available here in San
Francisco and it's called Morning Drive with Christie Live.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
I tried to try to get it on me, trying
to get it in on the on the thing there.
So Christi and Karina.
Speaker 6 (01:47):
Who are the Morning Drive with Christie Live cru the
best morning show, not just in the Bay Area but
anywhere in the universe.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
You ladies were.
Speaker 6 (01:56):
Discussing Christie's stepping in too. If you don't mind, Christy,
I'm going to do it for you, stepping into the future,
which made me laugh so hard. So I said, this
is going to be such a great topic because Tyson
is also very into this experience that Christy James. You
(02:17):
had a Welcome to episode number which Karina two hundred
and thirty one, y'all of talk Talk with Martha Quinn
and now we begin. So Christy, why don't you talk
about that experience where you stepped into the future.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
So if you have not been to San Francisco, you
don't know that rolling around the streets of the Bay
Area there are a bunch of driverless cars. They're beautiful
white Jaguar SUVs and they say way Mo on the
side and yeah, I see your face, Martha, you're like jaguars. Yes,
they are beautiful white Jaguar SUVs.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
And you had mentioned that they're clean.
Speaker 6 (02:58):
What if the person be for you who had been
in it was big.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Litter bug, you know. I don't know. I couldn't imagine
someone taking a way Mo and messing it up. That
is a great question. I didn't even think of that. Yeah,
it was spotless, like sparkling clean. So I don't know
if they pick someone up and then roll someplace so
some like magic Genie can clean it, yeah, or if
they have people observing so they know if it's messed up.
(03:25):
But when I tell you I stepped into the future
and it was sparkling clean, I'm not even kidding you.
So my friend and I we were at a concert
in San Francisco and we had to go, you know,
not very far. It was just like five miles, and
instead of calling an uber or lyft, I said, why
don't we take a way Mo. I've never had a
weay mo, right, So we downloaded the app, put in
(03:48):
our credit card, super simple, and called the weay Moo
the same way you call an uber or lyft, and
the car showed up. And when it showed up, we're like, oh, okay,
there it is. You check the license plate, similar to
an uber or a lipt, and we ran across the
street and we're standing at the car. And we're standing
at the car and we're looking around and how do
(04:11):
we get in? How do we get in the car?
We don't know how to get in the car. And
on the app, it tells you, okay, there's a countdown,
the same way with an uber or a lipt. There's
a countdown to tell you how long you have before
your driver leaves. And the clock is ticking and it's
like the driver is leaving in two minutes, and we're like,
(04:33):
how do we get in the car? Though we've never
done this before, so we're like running around the car.
There's no driver to like unlock it for you. And
so my friend's like, look at the app. So I
opened the app and it says unlock the car. At
the bottom of the app there's a message, and I
(04:54):
click the button and like magic, all four door handles
of this beautiful Jaguar popped out and we entered into
the future.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
What if you had gotten into the driver's seat and
started going rogue.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
I think you can go into the driver's seat. You
can sit in the passenger seat in the front. I
always see people riding in the front seat. I think
you just won't be able to control the car. But
you're more than welcome I think to sit there because
it's still a seat. Yeah, it is very, very strange.
When you first walk in there, it's dark and it's beautiful,
(05:31):
and there's a magical voice that pops on right away
and it says, welcome to way Mo. This car may
seem like you've stepped into the future, but like any
other vehicle, ride, please buckle up for safety. And you'll
notice the large screen in front of you, and she
kind of breaks down everything in the car, and there's
this large screen that's kind of if you have an
(05:52):
electric car, if you've ever been in a Tesla or
another electric car, and now the screens are big, and
it has all of these buttons and touch screen where
you can pick music, and they had all different kinds
of genres or you can connect your own phone. And
then she says, feel free to sing along because well,
nobody's here except you'l.
Speaker 7 (06:14):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
And then your ride starts and they give you a
countdown literally a countdown clock to when you're going to
arrive at your destination, and you can share your destination.
You can share your ride, and it's very futuristic.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
Tyson's theory is that the days of teaching your teenager
how to put the car into drive, put the car
into reverse, stepping on the gas, saying to your teenager, stop, stop.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Stop, stop.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Don't you see that stop sign? That's all going to
go away.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I don't think it's going to go away anytime soon.
I know a lot of my friends I was really
excited about the Wai Moo ride and agree, yes, a
lot of them disagree. Karina said, no oh. My friend
Maya was like, it's a demon. I'll never do it.
My friend Blue was like, I will never You will
never ever ever catch me in that. A couple of
(07:09):
my friends were like, hmm, I'll give it another three
or four years before I test it out.
Speaker 7 (07:13):
Yeah, Tyson, what do you think about them?
Speaker 5 (07:15):
I think in one or two years that's it for
learning how to drive.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
No, I don't think so. I think it will take
longer because people aren't necessarily on board. Because you would
think that about electric vehicles too, Like who wants to
keep paying all that money for gas? But there's still
a majority of the country that is definitely not going
electric because they're like, no, I don't you know. I
(07:39):
never want to be stuck without having the chance to
buy gas. That's what people say.
Speaker 6 (07:44):
That's me because we have an electric truck, and he
wants to have our second truck be our car, be
a Tesla, and I'm like, no, we have to have
a gas car because what if, what if we can't charge?
I feel more safe having a backup gas car. He's
not with me.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
Martha hasn't driven the electric car in a year, the
year and a half we've had it, not all the time.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
You have to do that.
Speaker 5 (08:12):
I'm living in one decade and she's living in another
a gas car again, and she'll never drive the electric.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
We're gonna see Martha in a buggy, you know the.
Speaker 7 (08:24):
Here goes Martha.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Step into the future, Martha Quinn and report that next
week on the podcast, because it is a different ride.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
If anything, though, I would think it would make it
easier for kids to learn how to drive.
Speaker 7 (08:39):
That's what I think.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
Well, it's going to be like you don't teach your
kid how to drive a train, it's going to be
like that. You just get in and it goes.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
You know, I think.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
That's what I think. That's what I think your philosophy is.
Speaker 6 (08:51):
I just want to say that if I was going
to start a car company, rather than calling it way Mo,
I would call it Yamo because then, yeah, I'll be there.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Yes, missed that opportunity.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Wait what the James Ingraom, Michael McDonald, Donald Christy was
doing just an amazing job.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
I was just nailing it. I was nailing it there.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
I was watching all these videos on Tesla's that drive
themselves with the FSD and the next day we're in
the car and we're just driving down the street and
at some point I just stopped driving.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Yes, I've done that before my.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
Brain had switched to the you know you don't have
I've been watching all these videos and all of a sudden,
the car starts going off the road and I'm like, wait,
my car isn't.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Full minus and I've done it?
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Did this happen? Was I on the oh?
Speaker 7 (09:45):
Yours is?
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Yes? Mine is nice?
Speaker 4 (09:47):
I have you have a Tesla? No that's full self drive?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
No? I have the Hundai Ionic five, and the Hyundai
Ionic five has a feature. We actually used it when
we were wine tasting couple of weeks ago. Producer Karina
was driving my car and got pulled over and I
was like, just let the car drive itself. At least
we'll be able to get there without getting pulled over.
And it definitely drives itself. You push a button and
(10:13):
it stays in between the lines. It slows down based
on however many cars you want it to leave in
front of you, like spaces. But I don't think it's
going to go all that way one because of people
like Martha Quinn who don't want to step into the future.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
Oh you should have heard Tyson's mom going off about it.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
She's like, I.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Don't think so. No, I'm not comfortable. I don't think so.
And I was like, yeah, she's on my side.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
But I'm like, you know, she was born there there
were no TVs, and now she's sitting here looking at
something thinner than a wallet.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
I watch movies and it's like it's coming fast.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Like the what's called the taxi cabs, but the in
the air that's almost here.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Oh no, no, no, no, the flying taxis.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
Yeah, no, the flying taxis.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
The flying taxis, they're almost here. I don't know about
that either.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Why not you catch an airplane you do.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
But these are flying taxis meant to get you from
quick point A to point B.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
People take helicopters in LA same thing.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
It's fancy.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
I'm not so sure about that one.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
It's not going into the robots.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
I can't wait for my Optimist robots to.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
They do have show up. They robots are definitely here.
They actually are saying that robots in China right now
are making iPhones. So before it was kind of like, oh,
these are and these are not just robots, because you
have at factories different robotic arms creating things and moving things.
But these are actually humanoid five foot five robots. They're
(11:50):
walking around kind of like the Terminator. They look like
many versions of the Terminator, and they're creating the iPhones
and the they're not the company that's using these humanoid robots.
Now they are like three major companies that are actually
using these these devices, these humanoids.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
So Tyson, you want a robot w.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Is Yeah, I can't wait. I keep looking at Beeler
or dog and going I'm so sorry.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
Why because what is it?
Speaker 1 (12:18):
What is it that you wanted to do or what.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Well, just everything mm hmm. I mean they'll be the
robot dog that you don't have to think.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
They already got some of those they did, yeah, to
keep people company.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
I wouldn't mind having a robot that would clean my
house and do the dishes.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
I would definitely be okay with that.
Speaker 6 (12:36):
But I do worry, Christy when you talk about the
robots in the factories. I do wonder, you know, what
is left for humans? We need to feel purpose and
if all of our purposes are taken away by.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
Robots, what is to become of us?
Speaker 6 (12:53):
I feel like we're going to be like those people
And remember Wally where they had nothing to do the car,
you know, except sit on the deck of whatever boat
they were on or something. And you know, nobody got
any exercise, you know, nobody had a purpose.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
And I'm worried about that.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
What do you think, Christy, because you're always down with
stuff that's coming up in the future.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Well, I feel like the robots are going to take
away busy work because making an iPhone isn't connecting to
another human. It's work. It's creating work. But if you
have an opportunity to let a robot do that busy work,
you have more time to spend with your child, playing
(13:36):
with them or talking to them, or making memories with them,
versus making an iPhone in a factory all day long.
So I feel like it will free up your time
for more human connection and less busy work. And people say, oh.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
Well, this has been top talk with Martha Quinn. This
has been totally awesome.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Get out of here, Martha Quinn. Well, that's my fear.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
I just thowt whats the name of that? Those big
hobby stores, it's those things are just gonna explode.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yes, exactly, the hobbies lobby like dickporting, Michaels.
Speaker 7 (14:11):
Oh okay, okay, hobby lobby.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
How are we going to make any money to buy
these hobbies?
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Because people will come up with different different ways of
making money and different ways of connecting. Think about the pandemic,
how things stopped and people created new ways of doing
things and communicating and entertainment and what you know.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah, I just saw this, Martha, which might intrigue you.
There's a self sustaining It's called garden. It uses AI
to do everything to grow your vegetables in weeks. All
you have to do is add water and it takes
care of all the rest.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
Yes, I need that that that I need that quickly.
Speaker 7 (14:49):
I would use that grow my own veggies. Like, yeah,
vegetables are expensive.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
So there's not a robot can teach you language. So
you have a link which partner you're doing that right now?
When you log onto an app do a lingo to
learn a language, technically that's a robot that's true teaching you,
you know, so you're using it now more than you think.
Siri is Ai will.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
Be out there exploring the world through the eyes of
the robots and talking.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
To the What do you mean by that? Explain what
you mean by that?
Speaker 5 (15:21):
Well, you just feel like I want to explore China
today or Paris, and you'll just log in with your
goggles on into an Optimist or whatever robot in one
of those countries and you'll go take a walk.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
And this doesn't remind anybody of the matrix.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
We're just going to be plugged in and having these
virtual experiences and we'll just could be in a pod somewhere.
Speaker 7 (15:41):
Take the red pillar, the blue pill.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
It happens now like it is happening. Now. All of
the things that we're talking about is not the future technically,
because it already is. You know, virtual reality exists. You
buy the Metquest glasses and you literally can step into
Paris in a coffee shop and you're talking to someone
else across the globe in the same coffee shop and
(16:06):
you just have your you know, Avatar. So really all
of this exists right now. It's just more and more
people getting on board with it, and then it's just
moving faster and faster. But it is what it is.
But in the meantime, I'm here for it.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Mean thing, I'm pretty I'm open to some of the
robot stuff. I think that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
What are you most excited about, Tyson?
Speaker 5 (16:26):
Well, I want to try that way moo. I mean
I've still you know, I read about it, I watch it,
but I never have been in a self driving car.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
It was really nice.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
You can't wait.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
It was interesting not having someone listen in on your conversation. Well,
how do you know that though it's different. You know,
someone could be listening. We have an Alexa device. Alexa
could be listening to us.
Speaker 7 (16:46):
Right everything is listening.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Someone's going to be listening yeah, but it feels a
little different when you're just in there by yourself. Think
of it kind of as having your own plane to yourself.
How that would feel like, it's weird, pretty cool. It's
a really unique experience. And like I said, it was
a really clean, beautiful car, so that helps. But it
is nice to just not have to worry about the
(17:10):
driver and just have your friend or be by yourself
in the car.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
So you didn't have to tip the vile Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Do you?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I don't know because I didn't. I didn't go back
to the app afterwards to look, so I don't even
know how much it cost, but I think it was
only like twelve dollars.
Speaker 7 (17:30):
That's not bad.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
They put a twenty five dollars hold, but I don't
think it was twenty five dollars.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
So they said Harry Belafonte was making a song for
it before he passed.
Speaker 7 (17:40):
It's called way.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
She could not wait. She could not wait.
Speaker 7 (17:45):
Mo comeet.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
All right, that might be time to wrap things up,
Martha Quinn.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
I think that's a good place.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
I think, so right now.
Speaker 6 (18:02):
This has been Talk Talk with Martha Quinn featuring Karina
of Alaskaz, who is doing an amazing Harry Bellafante and Christy,
who gave us an amazing Michael McDonald earlier.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Gosh, thank you to Tyson.
Speaker 7 (18:20):
Thanks so excited. It was fun having you here.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
Pleasure to be here.

Yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
Well until next week the next episode of Talk Talk

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Go on, we gotta get Tyson again.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
