Or for a cheaper option (don't know how many seconds total of sound you plan on storing), you can look into the ISD1000A series of audio record/playback ICs. Load it up (record) the sound clips you want to play back, then install it into your robot.

Quadravox also has an MP3 based playback device (here: www.quadravox.com/frameset/qvframeset.htm, the QV606m1).

You can also use the VMusic2 from Vinculum to add MP3 playback and USB "thumb drive" storage to a Stamp.

That depends on which interface you use. Parallax has some examples for their datalogger (see their webstore page). The VMusic2 uses the same chip and the music playing operations are the same format as the file I/O operations, so, by changing the commands used, you can play a file instead of just reading it. The VMusic2 documentation goes into details on the commands.
