That's true, but these real numbers can only be random if they have an infinite
number of digits in them, otherwise you could always find some Turing machine
to produce it. Yes, no known physical process can produce these un-computable
numbers, but a brain can't either, and a Turing machine can output a number that
is arbitrarily close to it.
