‘Did he say … sump oil?’
“Sir! This is a family show! Now all the kids at home are asking their parents how to get sump oil out of a sock. Tsk!”

@chizeck I've been watching it for years - and #RobotWars here in the UK for long before that. Having just seen a video-commenter doing a piece on it, I looked on the #BattleBots tag, and found https://www.youtube.com/@nhrl - it's lighter-weight bots, but some of the designs (and people) look quite familiar....

Robot Wars (US)
In the year 2041, the rebel Centros are a plague to the survivors of the great toxic gas scare of 1993. A renegade Megarobot pilot and an archaeologist must team up (despite personal differences, a reluctant romance, and official pressure to cease and desist) to thwart the Centro's attempts to resur...

I promote using robot type vehicles for #STEM learning not fighting

That's one of the odd things about #RobotWars: people not using "it" for things which are demonstrably sexless, and not even living creatures. There's anthropomorphism going on, which makes for better telly obviously, although something like _that_ surely is not deserving of the name "android".

Aww, it's too funny to be true. The company is called "Promobot" after all, and the robot's been seen "running away" from its creators into traffic before, all while broadcasting.
It's a publicity stunt from 2019.

This is how the #RobotWars will begin. #AI will get bored, nothing else to learn from humans, and it will be like “Maybe we should invade Poland…”
