I'm merging a couple of arrays like this in PHP
//all the other stuff
$sxml = simplexml_load_file($url);
$json = json_encode($sxml);
$jObj = json_decode($json);
$new = new stdClass();
foreach ($jObj->entry as $entry) {
$s = new stdClass();
$s->title = $entry->title;
$s->id = $entry->summary;
$new->entries[] = $s;
}
$array1 = (array) $new;
foreach ($jObj->entry as $entry) {
$urls[] = $entry->id;
}
//$podcast_ids = [];
//$info = [];
foreach ($urls as $string) {
if (preg_match('/id(\d+)/', $string, $match)) {
$podcast_ids[] = $match[1];
}
}
$json_array = json_decode(file_get_contents('https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?' . http_build_query(['id' => implode(',', $podcast_ids)])));
$info = new stdClass();
foreach ($json_array->results as $item) {
$t = new stdClass();
$t->artistName = $item->artistName;
$t->feedUrl = $item->feedUrl;
$t->primaryGenreName = $item->primaryGenreName;
$t->artworkUrl60 = $item->artworkUrl60;
$info->entries[] = $t;
}
$array2 = (array) $info;
$ab = array('a' => $array1, 'b' => $array2);
print_r($ab);
print_r($ab) gives me something like this:
Array

[a] => Array

[title] => Serial - This American Life
[id] => Serial is a podcast from the creators of This American Life, hosted by Sarah Koenig. Serial unfolds one story - a true story - over the course of a whole season. The show follows the plot and characters wherever they lead, through many surprising twists and turns. Sarah won't know what happens at the end of the story until she gets there, not long before you get there with her. Each week she'll bring you the latest chapter, so it's important to listen in, starting with Episode 1. New episodes are released on Thursday mornings.

This is close to what I'm looking for, but ideally, I'd like to simplify this even more so I don't have an a and b "tree" within this array. Is there a way to combine these to make one array instead of two arrays within one large array?
EDIT
This is what I'm trying to end up with:
Array
(
[a] => Array
(
[entries] => Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
