Fred's Show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Today
See if.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
I have the clip because this might be one of
the most brilliant things in PR history, honestly, like someone
sat down and really thought about this, Like you knew
that the Astronomer company after the CEO and the hr
lead being caught on the kit cam with the coldplay contract.
You knew they were going to respond somehow, and this

(01:04):
the co founder and now CEO made a statement, but
like they had to come up with something clever quickly, right,
that would have been cute. Oh when they did that,
they went out and got Gwyneth Paltrow Chris Martin's X
to make a statement and a little video for them.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
I have no idea they must have paid her for this, because.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
If I were her, first of all, I mean, like
it would be one thing to do something cute and
like tongue in cheek about that, but for someone to go,
wait a minute, what if we got do you think
Wyneth Paltrow will do it? Give that person a raise?
Because first of all, no one knows what astronomer does
or care. I don't even know who you care, but like,
you may as well use this as a pr opportunity
for you because you've already fired the people and you

(01:47):
didn't really do it. I mean, they did it right,
so it's not the company's fault necessarily, But whoever was like, well,
Whyneth Paltrow do it? And then if I'm Gwyneth Paltrow's
agent and they call me, I'd be like, oh, she'll
do it. She'll do it for you know, five million
dollars or like stock in your company or something. Because really,
like once you I feel like, once you have that

(02:07):
idea in your head, then it's got to be her,
because then for the pr people or for like the creatives,
anything else wouldn't work.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
So I feel like she had them hooked. But here
she is.

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Thank you for your interest in Astronomer. Hi, I'm Gwynneth Paltrow.
I've been hired on a very temporary basis to speak
on behalf of the three hundred plus employees it Astronomer.
Astronomer has gotten a lot of questions over the last
few days, and they wanted me to answer the most
common ones.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
I think that this one was what in the actual
f I think was the question or something like that.
It was like, well, you know what is going on there?

Speaker 3 (02:44):
Yes, Astronomer is the best place to run a patchy airflow,
unifying the experience of run.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Well, can someone explain to me? I know she's about
to kind of explain it, but what is a patchy airflow?

Speaker 4 (02:55):
Like?

Speaker 2 (02:55):
I don't exactly know whether because will you call if
you know? What if you're like one of these network people.
I know she kind of explains in here, but what
is a patchy airflow?

Speaker 1 (03:02):
I can see what Google.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Says, but I think camer is the best place to
run apatchy airflow, unifying the experience of running data mL
and AI pipelines at scale.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Sure, I love an AI pipeline. I've been looking for
a place to lay the AI pipeline and now are
you're telling me it's astronomer.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Thank you, Gwyneth Bendril thrilled.

Speaker 3 (03:21):
So many people have a newfound interest in data workflow automation.
As for the other questions we received.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Are your social media people okay is what the question was.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Yes, there is still room available at our Beyond Analytics
event in September. We will now be returning to what
we do best, delivering game changing results for our customers.
Thank you for your artist in Astronomer.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
That was so smart.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
God, it was good anyway, That's what everybody was talking
about over the weekend. But yeah, they got Gwyneth Paltrow
to make a video in response. They shared the humors
at on social media, featuring Paltrow saying that she was
hired on a very temporary basis.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
You heard the whole thing.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
The video ends with her then plugging the event that
they have coming up, which again, don't know what we're
doing there. We're laying aipipe there, which sounds amazing. I
only wish I understood what that was, but I'm too
dumb to know. Southwest Airlines flight reportedly plunged about five
hundred feet just six minutes after takeoff from Burbank to
dodge a nearby jet, prompting screams as passengers were jolted

(04:23):
in a free fall. Two flight attendants were hurt, but
all of the passengers landed safely in those vegas. The
incident stem from onboard collision alerts in the FAA is
now investigating, says, the thing on the airplane that will
tell you if you're too close to another airplane ATC
is supposed to do that for you. But if for
some reason they don't, then this thing tells you what
to do, and so they react to pilots react, but
they have to do it kind of quickly because you're

(04:46):
going really fast and you're climbing or descending or whatever
you're doing, and so whatever evasive maneuver to avoid the
other airplane is going to seem pretty aggressive, but it's
better than the alternative, so that ever happens to you,
they know it's all good.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
But this is happened a lot.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
It happening miy not supposedly with the commercial plane in
the military plane.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
So I don't know what's going on, guys.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
But ATC, I think it may have somebody to do
with the fact that they're dealing with equipment that was
made it like prehistorically, like the dinosaurs invented. They need
to bring in astronomer AI with their pipeline AI pipeline
to figure out a way to make the ATC stuff.
Like I feel like the ATC is just looking out
the window at this point and being like, Hey, this
plane in that plane, don't do that because yeah, right,

(05:31):
because almost nothing works anymore. A Scott Sail, Arizona woman
says that Living Spaces, which is a furniture company, delivery
workers effectively trapped her in her bedroom until she agreed
to give them a perfect rating. She felt unsafe during
the encounter, shared her experience on TikTok and has sense
filed complaints with a Better Business Bureau and the Arizona
Attorney General's Office. Living Space has offered an apology via

(05:54):
tic tech TikTok, but hasn't resolved her concerns to her satisfaction.
She got random people in your house and they just
dropped off all your new furniture and they're like, hey,
five Stars, are were not leaving? I mean that's aggressive.
That might be reflected in the comment that I make
after my review as well. But I guess if you're
standing there watching me do it, then you wouldn't be

(06:17):
able to do that, So I guess that would be why.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
But so, yeah, that's uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
I'm standing there and you're like, hey, five stars or
I'm not leaving, or I'm taking the couch with me,
or something like them and a Baltimore Orioles fan or
I guess all the fans got a surprise twist on
the national anthem on Sunday when four time international whistling
champion Chris Olman whistled the StarSpangled banner at Camden Yards.

(06:44):
The unique rendition went viral, with fans calling him the goat.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
So I have this here.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
You guys want to hear this guy whistling the national anthem. Now,
I wouldn't say normally that is something that would appeal
to me.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
But okay, I mean, why are their other distils?

Speaker 1 (07:12):
I think he's like I think he's making all of
them or it's an echo. I don't know what this is.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Actually, no disrespect it on agidal athem, but I would
not laugh like that. That's not an appealing sound to
the ear. It must be very hard to do, but
that's not an appealing sound to the ear. Why are
people why don't we have to get willy nilly with
like just sing the song or wiki wiki, just just
just sing the song, like sing the song to the
best of your ability. And I realize that not every

(07:42):
game is going to have Whitney Houston at it, so
you know, have a little and it's I guess it's
for a singer. It's a difficult song to sing. So
you know, if someone could just get the words right
and do the best they can correct, I can live
with that.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
It's not a situation where we should be one upping
each other.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
You know.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
The whole point of it is not just play Whitney
everywhere all the time.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah, we come together as an I'd be fine with that, Like,
just play the video of Whitney. It's a Super Bowl
and everybody would love it. Yeah, I mean, you shout
out to this guy. It's it a unique talent. But
I mean, I've heard the trumpet. I've heard people play
the trump It's very nice. It sounds good.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
You know.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
I've heard the saxophone that that sounds nice. But I
don't know about whistling. You don't like the saxophone. National
Anthem can be very lox.

Speaker 4 (08:27):
I need to get jazzy with it.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
You know.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
It can be very lit though, especially the guy really
like holds the notes and stuff. Yeah, it can, it
can work.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
It works for me.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
It's National Water Park Day and it's Buffalo Soldier's Day,
commemorates the formation of the first regular Army regiments comprising
African American soldiers in eighteen sixty six.
