  Hello, and welcome back to the Elon Musk podcast is a daily
• 2:22
  podcast about everything, Elon Musk space, EXT, Tesla too,
• 2:27
  boring, flamethrowers memes, anything Elon Musk.
• 2:31
  So if you're a Tesla owner, you're in for a really cool
• 2:37
  update, Elon Musk tweeted customized, horn and movement,
• 2:43
  sounds coconuts. Being one of course coming to
• 2:46
  Teslas soon. He said that on September 6 of
• 2:51
  this year. So if you haven't heard about
• 2:55
  it, you know, this is this is pretty cool, this is pretty
• 2:59
  goofy. And of course, Elon Musk is a
• 3:01
  goofball. If you wants funny things to
• 3:03
  happen, like instead of sending a big block of cement He sent a
• 3:10
  Tesla into space because basically the block of cement
• 3:14
  would have been a test. So instead he's like what kind
• 3:17
  of is about the same size as the block of cement, what's kind of
• 3:20
  the same weight? Oh, my car.
• 3:22
  So let's send a Tesla to space. And this is pretty cool.
• 3:27
  It's goofy, you know, so it's a funny thing to do and the
• 3:30
  Coconuts the Coconuts sound It's a direct reference to Monty
• 3:37
  Python and the Holy Grail. One of Elon musk's favorite
• 3:41
  movies and in this film King Arthur who's the main character.
• 3:46
  He searches for the Holy Grail and during the introduction of
• 3:50
  King Arthur. You could see him Galloping in
• 3:54
  on an imaginary horse. And the sound of the hoofs.
• 4:01
  The it's to Coconut shells smacking together.
• 4:06
  It's a really funny movie. If you haven't seen it, I mean,
• 4:09
  you're doing yourself a disservice, this, this movie is
• 4:12
  classic. And this is one of the scenes
• 4:14
  that apparently Elon Musk finds very funny.
• 4:17
  So of course, how hard could it be to program in this sound?
• 4:22
  Probably not that hard at all. So October 6th.
• 4:27
  Customized horn in movement, sounds coconuts.
• 4:29
  Being one, of course, says Elon Musk.
• 4:32
  And then he also said, farts and goat sounds to also, of course,
• 4:42
  so, The fart sound could be a horn, of course, and the goat
• 4:50
  sound, the bag of a goat is also, the hordes of is that
• 4:55
  legal. I'm just I'm just throwing this
• 4:56
  out there. Is that legal?
• 4:58
  I don't know if you have to have a standardized kind of horn
• 5:02
  sound in order for it to be legal, but I guess this is, this
• 5:07
  is one of those things that you learn musk is looked up and
• 5:09
  Tesla's looked up, so Tesla's decision to make.
• 5:13
  The noisemaker came in response to the National Highway
• 5:15
  Transportation, safety administration's pedestrian,
• 5:18
  enhancement, safety act of 2010. That was a huge one, The nhtsa
• 5:23
  Pedestrian and handsome, it safety act.
• 5:26
  They passed the act in October of 2009 and the report
• 5:33
  concluded, the blind. Pedestrians were subjected to a
• 5:35
  distant additional risks when in the vicinity of electric
• 5:39
  vehicles, due to the lack of noise and we all know electric
• 5:42
  vehicles, very quiet. You can barely hear the rubber
• 5:45
  on the road, you know, there's no combustion engine, that's
• 5:49
  vroom vrooming these vehicles down the street.
• 5:52
  So you have to make some noise, right?
• 5:56
  And especially at low speeds. You can't hear anything.
• 6:00
  There's no Transmissions from the engine, there's no tail
• 6:04
  pipes that emit sound and this is Tesla's answer to that.
• 6:10
  All cars are operating with strictly, batteries will have to
• 6:12
  contain a noisemaker but by September 1st of 2020 and
• 6:19
  because these vehicles don't make any well, very little noise
• 6:24
  between 0 and 19 mph. / H, they need this.
• 6:28
  So, Elon Musk thought it was funny, too.
• 6:31
  To make the coconut sounds and the fart sounds and the goat
• 6:35
  sounds. So, if you have a Tesla, this is
• 6:39
  something you can really look forward to it.
• 6:41
  You can also customize your own sounds, apparently.
• 6:44
  That's one of those things going forward.
• 6:45
  They're going to, of course, have a whole batch of sounds to
• 6:48
  choose from in the beginning. So you don't have to make your
• 6:53
  own sounds or upload your own stuff.
• 6:56
  Right away. So you will have some default
• 6:58
  sounds when this takes place in September 1st of 2020.
• 7:02
  So you have about a year to get ready for this.
• 7:05
  So choose your sounds wisely my friends because your car could
• 7:10
  be the funniest car ever. Now I want to say thank you to
