on today's show robots take on the role of candy stripers at a San Francisco hospital amazon is going to start making their own movies this year will tell you how and why and an old timey radio turns into a super cool podcasting machine no time travel unfortunately tomorrow daily greetings citizens with the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best geek talk show in the known universe I'm your host Ashley Scott i joined me on a Monday wait a minute you are not kale or you shave your head and you look totally different I got much better looking oh so true this is brian bishop you guys Brian kill sick want wha get well soon kale get well soon or don't I'll be here tomorrow that's it I you know what not I wouldn't i wouldn't complain I'd be bummed a little bit cuz I love hanging out with kale but right you seemed like an alright guy I'm a pretty awesome podcasting machine to that is true I you know old timey radio or brian bishop ultimate podcasting machine no not really sure i think it's an even match just kidding get well soon kale yes get well soon kill um but until then we have some really fun stories to talk about and you just before we hit the headlines you do the film ball I do so we've got some really interesting stories regarding film in podcast yes we're gonna rely on my film expertise and a story about Amazon's original programming yeah films super good so let's hit the headlines so we here tomorrow daily love robots as always it's a monday we love robots every day of the week but this i thought was very cool 25 autonomous robots are going to be rolled out at the UC San Francisco Medical Center in mission bay on februari first okay so these are them here they are right here I we've seen this before there's actually a hundred and about 160 hospitals in the US that kind of employee robots they had they already have robots kind of like this but UC San Francisco is the first to deploy a fleet this large okay 25 is the most they've ever most any hospitals seen deployed at once so the cool thing about these is that they're tasked for delivery and taking things around the hospital so they can do food they can deliver food to patients they can pick up food trays and take them away once the patient's done eating they can interact with six of the hospital's 20 elevators which is pretty awesome they can interact with an elevator how advanced yeah like they can tell it like exactly what floor needs to go to and all that other good stuff and the neat thing is it so here it is it's okay well they're going to put food in there and then it takes it to the room and then there's your food it also interacts with the pharmacy ok so you the pharmacy can put in some medication say we need you to take this lab or this other pharmacy with this patient or this patient and then at but nurses specific nurses are only able to open it with a pin code and biometrics wow there's actually like a there it is a little fingerprint scanner there that'll open the the lock so that they can get those medications out so that way nobody's running around stealing drugs from robots in a horse you don't want that so taking candy from a baby robot at that oh that's exactly right drug candy from a baby robot um I don't see this robot transforming into anything at what point do they transform and start battling evil uh you know actually I think that is in the two point oh ok ok so we have to wait on that this is an early version early version one point oh ok uh but these are super fastening and I love the idea that they were saying a lot of people I'm sure are concerned about the idea that well these are taking away jobs from people in the hospital but I really liked that i read that other the people who were tasked with delivering those supplies before have actually just been moved in a new position i was gonna say someone's got to refill the medication summer got to clean the robot someone has to reprogram the robots when it comes time to change the software update whoever so maybe it increases the number of jobs right it won't also potentially I really like that frees up time for for example somebody who could be taking care of a patient yes instead of running something back and forth to a lab or whatever so I I thought that was pretty cool i like said 160 hospitals about already have robots but this is a really big plate there's 25 yeah you really hit the nail on the head with the personal interaction is someone who spent a little bit of time in hospitals recently over the last few years nothing beats the personal interaction when something's really going wrong or you have a question or you're scared or nervous or whatever you know I thought well the robots helpful for delivering you know if to get your whatever to you on pain meds to do the sort of you get this to me on time whatever but when you want to ask a question or have some expertise or whatever you don't want to be waiting for that nurse or that dr. be seeing five other patients who have some menial thing like please deliver this or pray or whatever or take this lab down or take you know take these samples down to the lab it's like okay well have the robot do that as opposed to an automated that stuff yeah automate the automate the stuff the menial stuff that we don't need doctors and nurses doing so I see a really interesting stuff but what equally is interesting just on a different in a different industry amazon had some very interesting news today so Amazon was a big winner at the Golden Globes Bay they won best original comedy series TV and they won best TV actor in a comedy series for a trend sentence and Jerry Chris very well either we don't want to give transcendent any awards go to be around cuz you're willing or fancy it couldn't be more of the opposites out of the quality scary at second transparent now transparent and of course Jeffrey Tambor and amazon announced they're gonna be releasing 12-3 optical films this year they're getting into the fiat they're gonna become a production house they're gonna start producing vehicle move along movies lose you confirm the theater which apparently will be available to be streamed on amazon prime within forty eight weeks of being in the theater which such a good idea quicker than usual months that it takes for a film to right well it's like oh it's six months like you see a movie and then it comes out on DVD six to eight months later yeah so the the controversy i think is going to come from the the exhibitors the theater is basically we're saying what's the incentive for people to come see a movie here if they're gonna see it in their home and just four weeks right it's a legitimate complaint i mean i don't know about you I go to the movies a lot I actually in one of those old-time you guys who likes to go to the theater and I like the experience but you can't beat the convenience of watching a movie at home that's true but I think that I think that you actually made your own made it another point there which is well thank you you love the experience of going to movie and I think a lot of people will still feel that way and say I hope so and say I really want to go to these really big kind of event movies like I think a lot of people still are gonna go to these event movies these experience it was like like Avengers yes you're not gonna your orders 8 you know what I'm gonna take a pass this right that's a theatrical experience that's an experience and I think that there's something to be said for Amazon really kind of picking up the baton of indie filmmaking because they did say i love this quote that they're saying they're looking for unique stories voices and characters and they want to get those things from top and up-and-coming creators so not only are they going to be looking at you know really famous you know directors and writers and things but they're also going to be looking at people who maybe aren't getting looked at by traditional Hollywood studio I think so but back to the Avengers in one second put it put a pin in that okay they got Ted hope apparently to run the theatrical division who is the independent producer executive producer known for movies such as American Splendor 21 grams Adventureland he did a great documentary called the devil and daniel johnston these are all fantastic alright movie so he has the pedigree he's a legitimate guy in the independent world of movies so if he's got the eye for those kinds of movies they could start pumping out some quality materials yeah and I think that they're really feeling bold right now because of the Golden Globes wins I think they'll have less good on some good of eliciting yeah absolutely and and one of the things that I thought was very interesting as kind of a bullet point to this is both netflix and amazon have a huge data they have a huge data cache of information about what their viewers see what they want to see who they want to see when they want to see it i mean it they have that all of this data that may be Hollywood studios it's a little harder for them to collect because we're impossible or impossible because it's because it's not on the scale and it's not at the frequency that people are watching on netflix and amazon so I find this very fascinating that you know maybe amazon is gonna start taking some risks that traditional Hollywood wouldn't but it's not really that much of a risk because they have the data to back it up it's just like house of cards I think that's very true i think that amazon getting into this kind of business is good i think it's one more sign that the movies now this show is for and by nerds so people love the avengers and all that stuff but i think i just feel like the sequels and and and the spin-offs and the prequels and all that stuff it's a routing the quality of these movies like The Avengers where there's no there's no danger it doesn't have to be I'm not going to get killed in iron man two trust me no one's dying in iron man 2 because they're asked me in Iron Man 3 and an iron me up so the fact that they keep pumping out these movies and expect us to get just as excited about them every time it feels like we need a look it just feels having a little bit of new blood in these movies and I think the Amazons of the world this is a good opportunity yes a good opportunity um so that brings us to our hashtag of the day which is TV amazon and i just want to know what you guys out there think of amazon getting into theatrical production I mean are you guys are you guys more inclined now that you know amazon let's say they make a movie are you more inclined to see it in the theaters or do you say you know i'm just gonna wait because i have an animus on prime membership I'll wait six weeks I mean how do you think you'll use the service I what they should do it is interesting i'm starting in Rupp what they should do is they should offer discounts for feeder tickets to Prime members that would be amazing then they can movies yeah I would totally go to the movies more often get a five dollar ticket if you get a five dollar ticket if you use your amazon prime membership yeah and then and then see it for free six weeks later on your television or you know on roku free rental or something yeah super good I like that I like that idea that's why thank you you're welcome amazon you're welcome just take that that feather in your help you're welcome and clearly they're struggling so much i mean i don't know if they're gonna make it through 2015 lastly are I I thought this was so cool you are podcaster I have dabbled in podcasting as well this guy Roderick man loves the thrilling adventure hour okay so if you've ever not heard the thrilling adventure hour this is a podcast that replicates old-timey radio serials and they have different stories like beyond belief and Marshall are I'm sorry Sparks Nevada Marshall on Mars and this guy took an old an old golden tone radio 1936 golden on radio vintage um so you can see it looks like a just a normal radio looks like a lot of time you're ready take an old-time your radio big box radio you'd like those are like furniture for people there's a dis yuge a big display visa so the cool thing is is that he actually turned this into a podcast player can iPod docking station it's a little bit more complicated than that so he wanted to keep like instead of you having to open it put an iPod in all this stuff he wanted to be able to program his own playlists and change the actual dial okay different playlists it trains the frequency so let's say you have a beyond belief let's say you love thrilling adventure hour so that you make your own playlist for all of the beyond beliefs all of the sparks nevada all of all the film bolts all film vaults I'm all of the all the different podcasts that you listen to and then what he did was he used this thing called a BeagleBone black to store and play those shows in different playlists and as you turn the dial to each quote station it actually makes the the changing sound like the static and the fuzz and then in that it fades in the next play okay of Parker that is a needlessly elaborate needlessly elaborate but so but very cool yes so so cool almost everything that is needlessly elaborate is cool that is true I will I will go that far and say that is true um and I just I really like that he used like everything in the back of this is modern technology yeah so he's got um this is the back of it right here this is what it looks like from the back which is crazy oh it's just a facade Oh was the open obvious it's yeah that's what it opened so he so he was saying if there's enough interest that he would make boards that you could just slide into things like this and your own design everyone look of your own face do you can't stream podcasts you can't just like choose one and stream it like you would on your phone and you can't download them directly you have to actually load them into this vigal bone black okay to play playoffs but they have to be loaded in as playlist to work with the radio dial okay I gotcha but really cool that's a very cool idea listen anyway that people can access and listen to podcasts is fine by me we're all for that we are because people brought up like Oh cereals so popular you are you jealous or air what are your thoughts on that and my whole thing was like hey whatever get some more get out into the podcast pool that's a great thing and there's only 12 serials I mean you could have right there's only 12 of those there's a bunch of everything bunch of everything I mean you could listen to film ball non-stop just what you really should be doing a long time and then and you would never need to like start over again yeah cereal it's like 12 hours you're done it's over speaking of static you realize that it's not gonna be long before if kids have no idea what static is or was yeah super weird looking at stuff like that i dial tones dial-up internet they're like what is that weird sound of this making yours like you don't remember that sound like lost crazy we're gonna have to come up with a new joke or a new way to end phone calls in movies you know it's like clinic hello hello paper and I gosh I'm sorry you're breaking up like uh well like if you got hung up on with the movies would be like dial tone like hello hello I think she hung up on me it's like what I got something completely new now you just like talk for ten minutes and you realize no one no one's been on the other line let's make a movie about people realizing when they've been hung up on and we'll put you to Amazon and I love in theater and the Opera Stewart system are because she has that real straight like emotionless face you know if she's happy or sad yeah it's just like you don't know that you can hung up on it's the same so um well on that note we're going to take a quick break we'll be right back with a really awesome back of your hackett I don't care how dorky you guys think it is and your user feedback so don't click away it's tomorrow daily welcome back to the show uh every week we like to do this thing on Mondays where we talk about crowdfund okay there's a lot of really good ones yes they're kind of weird some most a lot does the majority they're kind of weird majority sort of bizarre okay um but uh but I i I'm really curious to see what you think of this one I saw it and I got very excited but some people might find it super dorky so that might be you I so this is backorder Hackett all right we're gonna see if this is brian bishop approve okay this is called wait for it the foot hammock all right so far so good so far i love hammocks any kind of hammock cuz if you sleep in it on a tree this is actually designed for your desk so here's the we've all been there okay I've lived this I lived this this morning before I even saw this stupid thing yeah I was resting my feet on my subwoofer underneath my desk and I was getting really uncomfortable just like this guy what prints on the walls oh just fidgety and you can ever know and this guy's got a foot hammock look at that and he's playing World of Warcraft um so yeah this is the foot hammock it is set up they have these adhesive kind of stickies that you put underneath your desk and then there's some bungee cables and hooks that allow you to set up this foot hammock they give you a couple options there's a mesh or fleece option okay there's also even a heated option oh you did fleece and I think they're stretch goals if they reach a hundred thousand dollars you get it you get like a cover so you can like put your feet in and then it's cold tuck them in like like the quarterback hand warmer this you know well yeah exactly it's just like that so there it is it's all at you know there's hooks and they DS got the elastic it rates up to a hundred pounds so it can it can hold your legs you're gonna be fine oh god you'd have to have four pretty strong adhesive yeah he said sprint like he's gonna hang on it oh so there you go so it's a pretty strong adhesive it goes right underneath your desk you put it in there you can actually tighten these up and make it flat so yeah he's gonna do that so you can hide it pretty easily which is nice if you don't want it just you know hanging underneath your desk going to adjust to your level of comfort yeah of course and then the one thing I really like about it is you can always see people like moving their legs from like a bent to straight and it just keeps your foot in there and then you don't have to worry about you know readjusting and also okay so aight guys i totally back this this morning like I you I paid money I'm like I'm in sign me up I don't even I'm not even gonna think about there it is look their job right there it's a magnetic covery stuff your feet in there that is a cover I was only kind of in until I saw the heating option and then it was like why not I mean it seems like a really good idea it does and i don't know i mean the marketing it towards gamers is one thing but there's a big platform for this in like offices in corporate chapters because what's is uncomfortable yeah all my wife works at a desk job and she works in a place that I was like you know slate floors and it's not very warm or it gets cold and this would be a great way to put your friend plus I imagine you're an exception today but a lot of women we're not go sockless yeah they go sockless to work and if you want to kick off your shoes and relax your feet a little bit you don't have to worry about people smelling your feet you know stuff them in though yeah you got the cover and a mic and put the cover on this book your people yeah cook them you're gonna barbecue here today who's roasting feet yeah oh that's me I'm sorry everybody that's me I'm roasting my feet that smell a roast foot it's my bad yeah I'm gonna be done soon you bring a triangle hey I'm go guys dinner time um so like I said mesh her fleece heated options ships in june of this year so not too far out it's not like oh it's a year away which I was like and then if you want to get a mesh one it starts at twenty bucks if you want a fleece one it's 30 if you want a heated one I think it's 40 which is the 1i backed yeah I go for the bit I go big or go home myself but ham again treat yourself treat your tootsies yeah treat treat yo feet that's what you gotta do go so you gotta do that's a good one ok so what my options are back it back in
