GMM 1164: 3 Weird Alarm Clocks | Never Buy This

Today we wake up with drones. – Let’s talk about that. (playful theme music) Good mythical morning. – Mythical beasts, take a look around. The trees are dying, the birds have stopped chirping, your camp friends won’t return your texts. That’s right, the time has come to go back to school. – Back to school, and we know that waking up at the butt crack of dawn to cram your brain full of information that you’ll never use in your postgraduate barista job seems futile, but it’s not, we use our engineering degrees every day. – Every day, every day. Okay, you gotta get to class, you don’t have a choice. Don’t drop out kids, stay in school. – But how are you gonna do that? What’s the most effective product to use? – You gotta have an alarm clock, or you could just use your phone, but let’s just forget about that for a second, and say you’re going to use an alarm clock. You don’t wanna just get any old alarm clock, you want to get the new, the best, you want to make the smartest decision, and we’re here to help you. It’s time for – [Together] Never Buy This: – [Rhett] Weird Alarm Clocks Edition. – First up, earthquakes are a reality in Southern California, but now you can practice being shaken awake every single day with the sonic bomb alarm clock and bed shaker. Welcome to our experimental bedroom set. Rhett doesn’t actually sleep here every night, at least I don’t know about it, and if you do, I don’t wanna know about it. – I would love to sleep in a room like this. – Okay, so I have set up the sonic bomb alarm clock over there, ’cause who doesn’t want to experience a sonic bomb every morning of their lives. Now I don’t exactly know what a sonic bomb is, except that there’s some flashing lights, and a really loud sound, and your bed shakes baby. Yeah, there is a, – How’s that work? – There is a vibrational pad placed strategically under the mattress. It’s like a disc. Are you ready to experience a sonic bomb? – I’m as ready as I’ll ever be. – Alright, go to sleep. (alarm goes off) – I hear a rumble. – It’s not subtle, it’s not subtle. – So it beep, beep, beeps, then it rumbles, rumbles, rumbles. – Where’s the disc at? – It’s over there. – I’m gonna put my booty on it. Oh there it is. – Now it’s pretty loud. They say this is 113 decibels. You’re like a dog getting his itch spot. Hit the itch spot. – I think you cut it off Link. – I can tell how loud it is, but I can’t tell how intense the vibrations are. – It’s pretty nice. – Does it pass for a massage? – It would be difficult to sleep through. – Just hit the red button, hit the red button. Hit the red button! – You hit it three times, is that part of it? – Yeah, that wakes up your left arm, it’s part of it. Alright, how you feeling? For 30 bucks is this effective at getting you out of bed, or does it actually make you want to go back to sleep, like if we could rid of the alarm part of it? – Well first thing I’ll say is that when you’re married, you have to be sensitive about how loud your alarm is, because you don’t want to disrupt the other person, so I think my wife would be upset about this. – But you don’t sleep with her. – Yeah, we sleep in separate beds. But in terms of it actually making you have to get up, and hit this thing, I think it’s just once, I just think I was making bad contact. – That’s kind of what any alarm does, I’ll just point out, it’s the vibrational part that I found exciting, like an earthquake. – It did feel good, but I like to make choices about my massages, I don’t like to be awoken by a massage, but on the booty, it did feel good. – I was ready for you to be underwhelmed by the shaking, so I have an idea that is gonna expand the use of this product, go back to sleep. (alarms go off) Now as you can see, you are no longer vibrating, it’s that container containing your protein shake, I have doubled the vibrational power by adding a second alarm, and it is shaking your breakfast. – I’m not sure how well it’s working. – Just give it a second. Okay, turn it off, I think your breakfast is done. Hit both red buttons. Now enjoy your breakfast, sir. We have just turned an alarm clock into a breakfast making machine. Don’t even have to get out of bed, breakfast in bed, man. – It’s not very mixed. – Hold on, it’s good, it’s good dude, it’s great. Let me have it. It’s great. – I just sniffed a little bit. – Might need to add more liquid next time. Okay, so what’s the verdict? – Never buy this. Have you ever wanted to wake up smelling anything other than yourself? Now you can with the SpaRoom AromaTime digital alarm clock essential oil diffuser. This thing is $29.99 on Amazon. – [Link] It looks like a futuristic ashtray. – Well I don’t think you need to put ashes in it, but it is what you put in it that makes it potentially worth that $29.99, because it’s a two-for-one, Link. Well it sounds like it’s a seven-for-one based on the name, the SpaRoom AromaTime blankity blankity blankity blankity blankity thing, is an aroma, like an essential oil diffuser, and an alarm clock, and potentially an ashtray, I don’t know. – Does it have ylang ylang in it? – Who’s she? – That’s the scent that’s supposed to wake you up. – I’ve never heard of that, or her, and I don’t know what it is, but it does have rosemary mint oil in there. – I go to sleep sometimes with a diffuser that’ll go like two hours into my sleep. – Oh, that’s nice. – But I don’t understand why it would wake me up. – It’s like being in a spa room. Hey, it’s aroma time in the spa room. Why don’t you go to sleep, – Something smells good, I better wake up. – And then you tell me how it makes you feel when you wake up. (alarm goes off) – Well good morning. Oh, it’s smoking. – Stick your nose right on the hole. – What is that, ylang langy lang? – It’s rosemary mint, man. Hit the green thing on the front, left, left, that’s it. – That was it and it still diffuses as I’m going about my morning routine of staying in bed and coming up with excuses for not doing anything. – How does this make you feel? – It makes me feel relaxed, it seems counterproductive to the point of an alarm clock. – You don’t like aroma time in the morning? – I like it at night, I don’t like it in the morning. – Well the manufacturer encourages you to add your own essential oils. And so I decided to get a little creative with this, ’cause I thought that this might not be strong enough for you, I thought that it might be too relaxing, so I found something laying around the office that I’m gonna put in there right now. Why don’t you go to sleep again? (alarm goes off) – Oooh, good morning. – Morning. – You got on a mask? – Well yeah, ’cause I don’t wanna smell this. – Ugh, what? – Waft it, waft it to you, I found it lying around here. – Gah, what is it, it’s pee, you peed in there? God, you peed in the diffuser. – I got a buck to pee in there. It’s buck urine Link, that’s a male deer. – This works, this will get a man out of bed, ’cause that stanks. Oh that stinks. How do I turn it off, what’s the button? You push the button. – No, I’m not touching that thing. You want to hit the green button on the far side. Now the great thing about this Link is it will bring all the does to the yard, so you’ll get a wildlife experience, too, like you open up your window. So what’s the verdict? – Never buy this. Have you ever wanted to experience the life of a narcoleptic air traffic controller? Now you can, introducing the Northwest flying alarm clock. That’s right Rhett, for $11.19 you can have your very own flying alarm clock, there it is right there. – Oooh, I’m excited about this. – Now I just want to set your expectations, the whole thing doesn’t fly, only the top part flies. And the reviews are kinda low, we had to buy four of these in order to get one of ’em to work. – The whole thing doesn’t fly? – Just the top flies, man. – I wanted to see I go. – But the only way you can stop the alarm is by seating the flying portion, I’ll call it the ballicopter back on its base. Do you understand? – No. – What do you mean you don’t understand? – Yeah, put it back on there. – Okay, go to sleep. (alarm goes off) – Here it is, watch, watch. Oh there it is, catch it. Oh, you caught it! – What do I win? What do I win? – Being able to turn your alarm off. So seat the ballicopter back on there. Push it. Oh goodness, it’s not stopping, don’t break it. – Oh that was harder than I thought it would be. – So there it is man. Hey, your catlike reflexes– – Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don’t know if I’d be that ready. – That nimble. – But that would be a cool challenge every morning, can you catch it? – And if you don’t, it’ll put out the eye of a pet. – I really want the whole thing to move, though. The fact that it’s just a propell–, it’s a ballicopter. Yeah, what’s the fun in that, you can’t travel in that. – It’s cheap, you broke it just by doing that, I’m sure. Yeah, this was a little underwhelming, so I have applied some brainpower to develop a product that is gonna take this whole thing up a notch, literally. Go to sleep. (Chase makes alarm sounds) (drone engine runs) Look at that, good morning Rhett, where’s your sheet? You didn’t even have to take your sheet off, because the alarm clock did it for you. – Now why is Chase here? – He’s the part of the alarm clock that you program. You tell him, he lives here now, or in your house, you pay him by the day, or I don’t know, we need to work that out, and then you tell him when you wanna wake up, and then he beep, beep, beeps, and he pilots the drone, I’m not gonna pilot a drone. – Thank you. – I don’t know how to do that. – Well I am awake, of course I was awake before, but it was fun, and I like Chase. – You know what else you are? – I don’t know I wanna see him every morning. – You’re not covered up, you didn’t have to do that. This is like The Jetsons man, and I’m working on one that takes your clothes off, and then, – Is Chase gonna shower me, too? – Showers you. – We should talk about that. I mean, I’m not interested, we should talk about not doing it. – So what’s the verdict with that guy? – Never buy this, but potentially buy Chase and a drone. – Thank you for liking, commenting, and subscribing. – You know what time it is. – Hey, I’m Alex. – And this is Michelle. – And we’re in the Smoky Mountains, and it’s time to – [Together] Spin The Wheel of Mythicality. – Now that you’re not gonna buy those alarm clocks, look at all the money you saved, you should go over to mythical.store, and pick up a good mythical mug, collect all two. – There’s all types of mythical stuff there, socks, shirts, oh, you’ll be surprised.
