Crave Ep. 75: Hot for teacher

2012-02-07
it's Tuesday februari seventh you're experiencing the crave podcast I'm Donald L i'm eric franklin i'm ready for the experience if you get warmed up I'm already crying though our pre-show spandex conversation um Bonnie chaozhou twith us today she's blogging from home but she's with this fair enough come on bear with us we'll get through this together all of us all of us together so say we all what she might be playing around with right now from the comfort of our home is the cria scope she might be this is a out at a weather forecasting device that uses half thick technology to translate tomorrow's forecast into a temperature that you can reach out and feel with your hand on this aluminum cube okay all right all right yeah I can see where this could be useful you know it's like how hot exactly is gonna be tomorrow like 70 degrees means nothing to me right or and I don't know what that means you have no frame of reference I've never even been in 70 degree weather numbers hurt my brain yes how just let me feel it up yeah I want to feel things up I don't like thinking about numbers it is what I'm saying uh so so you touch that thing yeah okay told you manicured fingernails right and it gives you a sense of what the temperature is going to be like Isaac and of course you know like any good project that we talked about on crave it's ultimately powered by an Arduino interface of course because you like saying the word Arduino Arduino yep and you know it's my only no aboard you special um so get hot or cold also has a little LED light on the bottom to indicate either through like red or blue this is me cold yeah they know you have to touch you just kind of look at the glow on so when it's 100 degrees out there so is that piece of metal getting up to a hundred degrees is that let's cook an egg on that Oh freezing some ice or freezing tonight right uh-huh but yeah I'm ething in the event of Armageddon could probably send your fingers off right so so when tomorrow comes you know what to wear right basically you have to go outside or use any kind of judgment two reasons moments two reasons I like this one is that it it's another way to kind of trip beyond the the screen or a number it's a way to translate outside information into something in the home that you can kind of interact with right all right second reason is it's another one of these little tiny dedicated cube-like devices that we would have now a row of in our home like the little Molly dragonball spitting device the low printer thing the little printer thing and now this thing right all translating the world's information into our homes through these adorable little cubes yeah the future is in cubes should I invest in cubes is what you're saying cubes in and Arduino Arduino ology yeah that's it there you go yeah that's the secret of Donald success gives in to check it out it's a it's a concept right now but it's pretty interesting another one another kind of a naught cube this is a pig shaped thing is also something Bonnie's probably playing with it home right now it could be she's lucky um Kissinger all right and we talked about trans global kiss devices before the one we talked about before is like you put it like yeah there's like a little tongue control yeah you french-kissed over the yeah yeah I remember that oh we're gonna get this one in here this one's a little bit more lip based well that's kind of so the outlet the outside of your mouth doesn't get violated or the inside of your mouth doesn't you violated just that you know that that kiss started off is a little bit hot went on a little too long yeah i gotta say just like pressing your lips that long not hot little bit i'm just kind of cool yeah i'm not i'm not as told about this i think it needs to be square i think all these things need to be q like yeah if this was cube like it'd be kind of cooler it'd be cooler much hotter well things are getting weird now so i think it it uses like a little motor to vibrate the lips and translate that yeah to take a little lengthened and the fart sounds are great yeah that's if there's something that says sexy it's a little flaps of skin being blown by that could be an issue of technique because I I kind of do that when I kiss I do you you just raspberry your wife no it's not gently romantically yeah sure there's there's love behind that behind that that lip vibration hmm well they say I'm sure there's alternate uses for this device speaking of reading lips um yeah so this is not again it's not on sales another concept but this is a thing this is officially now this is the thing this is something you can sell you can buy something or selling you can buy it now I can give this um 10 so you see not say no say no I just mean the this this idea of these little dedicated devices for communicating information across the internet right to your home yeah and interacting with it either by touch or through your lips or through a gumball or through a little printed sheet of adorable paper or something you're right I agree with you like this is it should be a recurring segment on the show at this point because we're talking about things like this every week yeah and I feel like that must mean something that must have some kind of meaning that we there's more more devices out there that can do that kind of thing that can transmit this kind of physical information across the Internet maybe we're going in that direction you know I don't know but you know what I don't care because you shouldn't care glow specs are coming I'll get to see those glow specs close you can say our coming just say glow specs we can ensure right there this guy he's right here you're mine is coming is he oh oh no we skipped one oh sorry I'm I threw you off because I might have had them in the wrong order but what I want to talk about right now is glow specs I mean you want to see super cool dudes with Van Dyke's there we go yes this guy Raven Dyson ring in the future of illuminated sunglass technology in his uh nineteen sixty spy jacket it looks like he looks like a James Bond villain it's a it's another Kickstarter project another thing that we should have a recurring segment theme on here Kickstarter sure you know yeah gadgets it has he reached his goal yet I think so yeah he's saying these are these are already coming in april okay gal cast his ten thousand dollar funding goal awesome sunglasses where the future well where there is to their electroluminescent so they'll uh they'll project that cool looking neon glow outward right so people would see you having this super cool light up glasses and by cool you mean blue right you know thing come in different colors you could have your logo on them their novelty glasses yeah you can advertise yeah if you want i want them for my band yeah but uh the wearer doesn't see anything odd oh they don't see it's like a one-way clicking when we mirror kind of thing yeah yeah sure yeah I I can find all you get to you on your side of asses and just enjoy all the turned on looks by all the ladies around you right looking at your super cool blue space twenty bucks $20 pledge gets you some so you know if you're you're into the novelty eyewear thing help us get even if you're not I I kind of want to see this I kind of want to see people walking around with you know with these on I feel like yeah it seems so 80s to me I yeah this is like I kinda want to see a DS come back so well remember the eighties no no yes mame member video games in the 80s I'm a Nintendo let's not fall down let's play nes cuz this is all this nostalgic i think i can get whatever into know it just it ends with us hugging and crying at the side wanted to add usually the ocean italy in that same vein of illuminated gadget tree there is this new light up cable concept for actually this might actually be coming dexin is creating this visible green illuminated charging cable that uses electroluminescent wire i believe to be able to show you how much when your gadgets are charging Oh with the draw of electricity that they're doing it as the gadget fills up and this battery life is sufficient it starts slowing down and then turns off automatic so that's not as wait this is simulation that was not this is not this is not the cable itself yeah yeah supposed to look this dope support so it's not done yet I mean what's you know if they haven't finished it like it can may not show a real video of it cuz this like the way this concept because the concept video is selling me they're already problem being sold already pricing on this get in a purple dark seriously I wine this right now for thirty-five dollars alone but if it doesn't look that cool I'm gonna be real disappointed assume it looks like cool I why are they showing a real video then I don't know that I kind of yeah I hear I'm a little suspect I hear you yeah but I hope it happens oh we have a suit looks we need more cables helping us reach out on a daily basis and distract us yes we don't have enough things right now more distractions for me the better but it's also supposed to be a measure for green energy conservation that you're not you can see when your gadgets are drawing power when they're you know and also they can automatically shut off when so this will automatically shut up that's good yeah I love that yeah it'll be drawing power the oh you're not using right it's a green except when you're in the future corning's vision the future vision version version of their vision version four of their vision a glass filled future from corning i love these concept videos where they show you hello how indispensable their technology is going to be in the future so is that supposed to be happening yeah somehow their glass allows them to project Hollywood's into a room but yeah I know they're glad the architectural glass here is slowly revealing the sunlight outside so is that a electrochromatic glass what does that little girl own a tablet and then like the samsung vision which we've already seen you've got the the touch screen window right helping you yeah yeah this looks we're mad cool um well this is a rich family right here like each little girl has our own tablet mm-hmm and it's that same brand of tablet that doesn't actually need any components inside of it it can just be a solid for a sec um oh yeah they're beaver Oh dad's so embarrassed guys I told you after I killed your mom you've been next you kidding me crap right remember that yes dad will turn it off they're dimming the windows at their school all runs on a strike you're happy Dow Corning powered photovoltaic glass help keep all those tablets charged up we really have do something out dad can we kill him and sleep yeah okay we'll talk about later yeah look at this lose gonna kill pin in this discussion all right kids we're gonna learn about Chrome so you have the dashboard the desktop everything is just glass everywhere making this happen it's fragile future what's it like it's gonna be a very smudgy future they're not each other we're all the teachers are as hot as her and then all the little boys look like a teacher like my kids have the same salt and pepper fantasy that day anyway discussing earlier I'm pretty sure he is how little boys are like interesting you're trippin out or if you saw this happen in front oh if I mean that that was my teacher that's all you need to say like I just mean the technology talk about technology because they're used to that by that they're jada the all these kids a jaded I don't care about this is doing this because you know the girls are doing is just to be social what was doing I cuz the teacher saw that they want to please a teacher well you know is because she was able to get dressed in the morning using Dow technology or Corning technology to help her pick out her outfit that probably yeah izing her teacher yeah that's cuz she had that to help her pick out her outfit at the school with uniforms like it's usually she didn't have to spend that much time till I art see what our hospitals of the future all made out of antimicrobial glass so I'm guessing that this is a doctor in some other country he's talking to that or no not on the other side of that wall if that would in a little bit counterproductive what you guys doing in there I'm waiting yes ma'am his brain is now this big your eyes sir hmm let me think what a frozen we which wich llegar we am dating today I don't know you guys say i only have to be here for a couple minutes we did here for course i want to see my family we're gonna press in between two pieces of glass now we're gonna teleport you in this experiment hmm it's next ugh i don't know how the glass is doing that hmm I think they're gonna make him in today Mary still wow that was the easiest brain surgery I've ever stand it salt congratulations you've been give it a little bottome I think that was a two finger gesture I think that was this multi-finger oh that's a guy with the what the dayglo glasses would have everything it might be less a good ah the screw genetic engineering we glass can make Jurassic Park yeah cg will be so cheap in the future but anyone do it oh I think it's someone's long so hey I think they're on Ninja Warrior now they have to press that button make sure what up we're dead even in the future CG animation will be what an adorable dinosaur he's fun yeah oh wait a minute wait is dad out here there is dad's become adhirata toys r us is gonna kill us hope ya corny can provide the glass diaper after taking her scare session is that the mom how about the one was dead we established this oh he works during the day or wait what why was she in the morning he was the two different kids yeah I'll spend the rest of this podcast trying to figure out the exact family dynamic here yeah oh this is the same look she's back in the pit right no I think this is difficult oh is it all right oh god features can be so amazing so the futures gonna be lonely for parents as they're all single parents is what they're saying well it glass is what separates them Corning a life morning like that's good yeah poignant yeah even that smudges smudgy so that's the future um you're welcome yeah I'll support that what else do we have to talk about Eric maybe a segment called a while oh I like that I like I like that you kind of will it into will the beginning of that segment into being with your mind you're just kind of I think it goes something like this it's better than me like trying to romance it out with my my dance skills right well that's not your dance melz this is your dansk that's right now I'm working on it okay all right if I really it was who's ami did to make that happen I couldn't yeah same you could write better i use my willpower yes and speaking of making it happen how the Avengers make it happen Donald yeah they will make it happen The Avengers is a team of very powerful beings that are more powerful better looking than you or I will ever be and there's a movie coming out if you haven't heard about this have you guys heard about this there's a vendor's movie mm-hmm looks pretty good yeah his new trailer out they played a super bowl trailer 30 seconds good I was like thing is missing something yeah then I glow specs yes close specs where the glow spanks someone should be wearing gold specks but now there was no glow specs but there was a one minute version of that trailer that was released on YouTube and we're gonna play that all right right I won't see this the world has changed at this point i doubt i think would surprise me we are hopelessly outgunned mr. stark captain it's time I still believe in Heroes the adventures it's what we call ourselves Earth's Mightiest Heroes thing I have an army we have a Hulk I'm sitting over here I'm a Neelu and I need me a sniper is he died need the glass diaper right now I've seen that trailer like 50 times already and I'm just watching it just I still get as excited I so is as excited for so I actually was noticing myself when watching the trailer for first I was painted to myself and how was reacting be the most embarrassing thing in the world if you were filming in hats yes I was literally doing that and I was putting my hand over my mouth right like oh my like like a little kid is I'm such a low key when it comes to this kind of stuff I just revert back to that that kind of motional state when I'm watching this because it's so exciting and it looks like it's done so well yeah I know I know you're not as athletic I know you're not as excited about it but what a couple of things I really like what that trailer that they point out well first of all it features like the best shot of Hawkeye we've seen so far when he's like falling out of something also i notice is like a girl like bunny ears running through that first shot but oh anyway from me there's a girl on the right yeah right yeah I saw that I saw that too like yeah you're right um she's right by that you missed it already yeah um wait yeah it's kind of hard it's kind of that the stream is kind of free me it's kind of hard to it went okay right yeah it looks like she has bunny ears but I bet she I don't think this is a test your head but could she if she's not in this oh yeah right only right you're right that is it said she I don't know if she's gonna be a future place she one of the Avengers no I probably not no no I don't know any vendors a bunny is really awesome but although it would not be honest the ball of the bloody supersonic hearing and ability to previously supersonic hearing I don't know all of the buddy well Cyclops doesn't have laser eyes or whatever other I don't know but he has one I see yeah well bunnies have big friggin years you can run fast there you go she's skip up around um yeah so what like is it has a first great shot of Hawkeye yeah it also um I the way that movie plays out to me and this is probably pretty predictable oh that's so awesome um every knows he has a kind of a grappling hook arrow right now cuz he's falling out of some uh yeah I looked at this few times the way that movie plays out for me is you know Nick ferry gets all these guys together and they're all full of egos and whatever else like I won't work this guy or you're not anything like your father mr. stark you know let's go stuff and gough and then they add this we have this big fight and you know fight and it's awesome and they're just kicking each other's asses and stuff but then you know there's something that happens something something like it's al-kamil fun and stuff then something serious gonna happen Josh Wheaton loves to do that kind of stuff he loves to throw you like that oh this is fun oh I mean you know I'm a leaf on the wind and then two minutes later you're dead you know I said hi um he loves to do that kind of stuff and I bet that's gonna happen they're all going to band together and they're actually gonna fight as a team for the first time and you don't see that one shot that one hero shot and money shot the camera goes around and that's gonna be their first time were they like alright we're we just did something and we're you know we're gonna come together as a team and now we're gonna take down take these guys down and they're gonna do something it's gonna be awesome yeah well I think like you're saying about the hot teachers effect on the students I think when they realize that Scarlett Johansson's involved in the movie they'll probably all bond together over that you think so yeah you're saying the students or the Avengers I don't know looks like let's just stop fighting and i'll appreciate the scarlet johansson is here with us yeah I could do that yeah I can appreciate that else we have what else I could reach another thing I could be she ate Donnell is the amazing spider-man um I wasn't very excite about this movie actually I kind of forgot it was coming out can I july third um until I saw this trailer this trailer really has me excited gonna go to it we talk about later if you want but let's just play the trailer it's kind of long so let's get that going that's not the same opening shot how'd you get out there fires game its twenty stories your doorman's intimidating tell us a little bit about yourself mr. Parker not much to tell really Peter lives with his aunt and uncle did you catch that spider guy yet no but we will this guy wears a mask like an outlaw I think he's trying to do something maybe the police can't hint you know if you're gonna steal cars don't dress like a car thief you a cop you seriously think on the cops and the skin tight red and blue suit who are you I know it's been rough for you here I forgot all about that thing he was your dad's your father was a very secretive man Peter dr. cutters I'm Richard Parker's son your father and I were gonna change the lives of millions including mine extraordinary how did you come up with this there's a rumor of a new species in New York it can be aggressive if threatened I kind of stopped him because I created him that's not your job maybe it is 38 of New York's finest versus one guy in a unitard Wow if you want the truth Peter come and get it I am issuing an arrest warrant for the masked vigilante known as spider-man travel I'll see that here's the thing that I want you to talk okay I feel like it's trying really hard to be Batman you know as far as it being like darker and I'll like like Nolan back Batman you mean like Chris renewal yeah Batman Begins dark established coming so I was that kind of tone for a new spider-man reboot and doesn't have the kind of rainy whimsy that was like prevalent in the last couple films I don't know I mean I can't we all know I don't want to see that it also like all like the is it that the power the power stride the police power structure of Gotham like right like being both for Batman but then against them and then like sure and then but I feel like those are gonna be universal themes if you really tackles a superhero story realistically yeah those are going to be you know those kind of plot points those kind of themes are going i canna intrinsic to that kind of that John wave I feel like you know what is the police what what do the police think about this what um you know duty like them do they not like them at you all did kind of and when you break away from that you get for right right wishes let's take the rainbow bridge over to like the right exactly attention yeah yeah and yeah even in Thor there's a little bit of that with the shield agents you know it's kind of hard to to separate a superhero story from that kind of thing like he's a law enforcer it but he's taking the law into his own hands how do we handle that you know so i guess Superman's only movies never really tackled that didn't really go in till I guess and especially what is the spider-man thought i was going for it though is that it's like the most underdog character well yeah that character has always been he's a nerd he's a nerdy kid that gets these superpowers we still nerd you know but you know now he's super strong and agile nerd and what I really like about this this new movie is that they're very going back to the original mechanical web shooters I and I'm sound really fanboy that's right now but in the movies they went with organic web shooters which at time I know if you guys remember this big big stink you know was made about like from fanboys just why I going to do it didn't bother me that much but I really do like that they're going back to the mechanical rapture web-shooters it it kind of adds a little bit to his character and his his um just his intelligence his intellect because I don't really didn't feel like they really were able to convey that really well in the other spider-man movies like how smart he is what do you think about this that I remember this is a this is opening up an old it's kind of like a new thing to me but I think it's an old edition that comma it's like Donald Glover had that campaign for a while sure about him being possibly being seen spider-man yeah like I see that I think man actually would have been really cool yeah well as like some other way to make to give a new dimension to like these characters yeah sure um I don't know it breaks away from the actual like traditional spider-man story sure um Peter Parker in the comic has has always been betrayed as you know a white guy um and I really like Andrew Garfield the dad's plane ominous he was in the social network and he's really great net soha stories from me yeah yeah so I really I really I think that kid is really good actor and recently they kind of so spoilers spoilers if you haven't read the ultimate spider-man comic book okay well spoiler spoilers Peter Parker dies and then alternate universe when someone dies their dead so he died and this other kid who's half a Latino and half black has taken over as spider-man um I think is in miles more out Morales so it was it literally Peter Parker um but he may he looks he's a he's a kid of color you know and he spider-man now so it's there's a lot of controversy behind it and a lot of support the same time and people like to see it so I think we're coming closer to seeing that kind of thing where you can have a different take on a character despite you know not taken into account necessarily his race but cuz spider-man is more than just a white guy in a suit he's he's kind of symbolic right he's when he puts that mask on that's why so many people relate to him cuz he inputs that mask on it's like Master Chief in halo no one can see who he is when he has a mascot no one can say look on ask off for a little bit in that he was he could damask and that at some point well yeah I guess that's the new spreadsheet that converted to a Batman where you just like assaults made some rich there yeah there is yes area is and is some rich you know waspy dude it's gavin newsom is that man in all it's basically um so yeah so I yeah i agree with you i would have liked to have seen that I think there's the chances of that happening or higher now that they're establishing that they're establishing now that they can do something different with the spider-man character yeah you know someone else could be him so anyway I'll see a trailer looks good yeah it does yeah so that's all I have this week thought we have all right cool done all right we're done with we've done stick a fork in it if you want to contact us you can do that at krave at cnet com yeah we it's been a while since we've gotten any kind of contact we're outside world we're also on the Twitter yeah you got that you even bathe that you want to if you want to rant and rave about a review or story well done no no no you don't want to do that you get enough of that uh and you can find the stories will be talking about next week on our crave blog right there I'll be hitting the microphone this yeah all right we'll see you guys next week bye guys you
