Welcome to the Luke and Pete show.
It is Thursday the 5th of May.
Of course means it's a celebration of all things batteries and boys, Pete and Luke.
You have got really into doing the dates on the show.
Well, I've been you've taught me
no I really don't
but you've
I feel like you've
conditioned me
to do this
what kind of energy
have you got at the moment
I still feel a little bit ill
because of my elbow
but I'll get through it
I've been eating
milk duds
all morning
I do like
a 1950s
kind of
American sweet.
It's like theatre candy.
Why are they called
Milk Duds?
I don't know.
What is a dud?
Because I thought
Milk Duds, I thought
of things like
teats, nipples.
They're chocolate
caramels, right?
Yeah.
I just looked it up.
According to the
manufacturer, the
word milk in the name
refers to the large
amount of milk in the
product.
And the use of dud
came about because
the original aim of
having a spherical
shape wasn't achievable.
I just wrapped a hand.
It's crap.
These are crap.
Milk crap.
The duds.
Milk misshapen milk.
It's just like the original
misshapes.
Yeah.
Can you have a guess
at what year that milk duds
first came around?
You said 50s.
You're wrong.
Am I?
Yeah.
1963.
28.
1928.
Yeah.
Whoa.
Yeah. That's amazing, isn't it? People say America's got no history. They're making chocolate a long, long time. yeah 1963 28 1928 yeah whoa yeah
that's amazing
people say
America's got
no history
they're making
chocolate
a long long
time
yeah and their
brands are still
really really
popular
I guess
because I like
I like hot
tamales
I like Mike
not Mike and Ike
is what they're
called
I like
their version
of the licorice
torpedo
what are those
guys
they're called
up and downs
or something
isn't it yeah I'll tell you you carry on they're the same shape as Mike and Ike but they're called up and downs or something yeah I'll tell you
you carry on
they're the same
shape as Mike and Ike's
but they're not
it's like an American
version of a licorice
torpedo
and it's
blooming delicious
just like they
come in big
big cartons
for big big boys
with big appetites
do they call them
London drops
no god
what's the first
thing that came up
first thing that came up
it's the London drop
it's so funny to me because you know your life like an ft man as marcus from the ram was said a while
back your um your life is like one big episode or issue of the bino right yeah okay you basically
live like the bino like the other like earlier today you were sat outside the gates in your car
just sitting there the car's added an extra frisson of danger.
It's added a bit more
to my life.
I've got a little bit
of my home
to take around with me.
I arrive
in front of the big gates.
You're sat outside the gates
in your car
and I use my pass
to open the gates for you
and I think,
okay, I'm happy to do that
but you've worked here
as long as I have
so what's happening?
I've not got my pass with me.
I left my keys in there.
You left your keys there
for like two weeks.
How have you been getting into the house then?
I've got spares.
Mr. Plant.
I'm always going down Timpsons, mate.
Keeping the ex-cons in gainful employment.
Can I give you a little life hack?
You're making a big mistake with your keys.
You know that?
You know why?
Why?
Well, because you've got your house, office, and car keys all in the same ring.
Right.
Well, you lose them
well you leave them somewhere
you're fucked
keep them separate brother
why though
because then I'm carrying
all three sets of keys
in my pocket
no you're not
because you don't
if you're not going out
in the car
don't take your car keys
yeah but what if I find
well cars are bad examples
but what if I get to
if I'm walking around
and suddenly
oh I've got to get in the office
I've forgotten my office keys
because they're not
on my key ring
I need them all in one spot
do you want to know my process what I take the keys so I've got my get in the office. I've forgotten my office keys because they're not on my key ring. I need them all in one spot. Do you want to know my process?
What?
I take the keys.
So I've got my home and my office keys
on the same ring.
Right.
So you've gone against your own advice there then?
The car key.
So I put the home and office keys in my bag
as soon as I leave the house.
So they're there if I need them.
I get them out when I get to the office.
I get them out when I get home.
The car key stays home, brother.
Because if I get locked out,
I can't get into the house
because I've got locked out.
I don't know what he said
but I just thought
if you lose your house keys
why would you want to lose your house
office and car keys
at the same time
it's sufficient isn't it
going the whole way
going the whole way yeah
so I think that you should rethink that
okay I will rethink that
I've thought about it
I'm not going to do it
they're all in the one ring
do you want to talk about you trying to do a handbrake turn
in the car park earlier as well?
How do people do handbrake turns now?
Not like that.
How does it...
Well, I can't because I've got an electric handbrake on my car now.
What do you mean?
So my handbrake isn't even a handbrake.
So what does it do?
It's like a little button.
A little button?
Yeah.
What does it do?
It goes electric handbrake accessible. It doesn't when you park the car you just flick the button and
the red light comes on so it's on but you don't need to turn it off you just pull away and it
goes off automatically that's clever it's a bit boring though it is a lot the old yeah not when
you've got a bad elbow oh yeah that really ends i can't pull it you need that yeah so when you when
you do the handbrake turn you've got to swing the wheel around as quick as you can
and yank the handbrake.
I don't think I was going fast enough.
I think that was the issue, yeah.
You completely bottled it.
I couldn't go faster, could I?
It made quite a pleasing sound.
Yeah.
But I looked
and you just weren't moving.
One day I'll learn to do a handbrake turn.
Yeah, I think we've done to see that.
Supermarket car park.
The best place to do a handbrake turn
is seriously,
like maybe do it in quiet,
on a quiet Sunday morning or something.
Drive your car to a big field.
Yeah,
because it's slimier.
It is due from the night before.
Yeah.
And drive,
and you can spin around a couple of times.
You're going to make a big mess though,
aren't you?
Yeah,
but no one knows,
baby.
Oh no.
Just leave.
We're doing your park.
I can remember once when we were kids,
we never made, no one at the hotel I can remember once when we were kids you know the hotel
I went to
my mate Phil
Loch Ness Monster
all the rest of it
he was a bit of a character
back in the day
he still is a bit of a character
but he was very very much
a character back in the day
and I remember us
playing Knockout Wembley
we talked about that
as well didn't we
Knockout Wembley
and he
and his partner
if it was
in Knockout Wembley
doubles went out early
at this big field
where we were playing football
oh the curse of Knockout Wembley we were out early at this big field where we were playing football oh
the curse of Knockout Wembley
we were about 18 at the time
right
so we were still playing football
what we used to do
is to go and play football
during the day
then go out
the pub after right
usual story
there's no one else
in the field
apart from us
and he got knocked out first
and he disappeared
right
and
and we carried on playing
I didn't think any of it
because we were focusing
on the game we were playing
and we just heard this noise
of a car
and he basically stole
our other mate's mum's car
which our other mate
had driven down to the field
and was just hooning it
around the field
putting her hand back
to her driving between
the goal posts
all sorts
and it was probably
quite dangerous
and obviously my other mate
couldn't concentrate on the game
because his car had been stolen
and then he started
trying to drive the
car into the ball
to play like
basically like
what's that game
you guys
yeah like that
but in like 1998
yes
incredible stuff
incredible scenes
yeah it was very
dangerous
anyway what else
have you been up to
Pete Don
I love that video
you sent me
earlier this week
about how they
test manhole covers now I know that sounds boring to people listening this week about how they test manhole covers.
Now, I know that sounds boring to people listening,
but it's not boring.
It's actually very interesting.
I think when you see anything that's kind of a piece of technology
that's been created just to test other pieces of technology.
It's a bit of you, that, isn't it?
It's a bit of me.
It's like the wheels of a light aircraft on a big arm,
and it spins round on an axle.
Just spins, spins, spins, spins, spins.
And it has a certain weight on it and stuff to replicate a car wheel.
And it just goes round like 17 different manhole covers.
It's a wonderful video to watch.
Does it do it literally for like a year?
Yeah, it just goes on and on.
This is the 10
passages per minute.
Near it.
It's going
round a
circular formation of manhole
covers. It could have been anything.
Un test de resistance.
They're testing the resistance.
But yeah, I just love watching machines that have, you know, they're testing the resistance uh but yeah i just love watching um machines that have you know
they're just like they're just they're just created for one specific uh reason for the durability of
pavement mounted utilities you know when people say oh that that gotcha question in the interview
why manhole covers round have you heard about that oh right okay so it came from it came from like i know back in the day like again this would have been
in the 90s i suppose when microsoft was the company yeah it was okay it's like when people
got you at google or right or whatever and apparently their interview process was really
it was like really rigorous like you didn't know and then and it also culminated them asking you
some really difficult very tough kind of logical type questions yeah i don't know if this is true or not but it's
um it's it's like apocryphal thing and uh one of them was they would ask you so they would say
how you experienced this problem solving blah blah yeah what i don't know what you your kind
of people say what code have you written all that kind of shit and they would say okay and the final
question is why a manhole covers around and the point of it is to see how you think about the
problem okay can i answer yeah like i know what the answer is okay well sewage pipes and pipes
of sewers are invariably round they're designed a certain way why would you check and and it's an interconnecting world of just
sewage pipes
connect it
connect it
connect it
and then
those access points
why would you
bother to redesign
a square
access point
why don't you just
invert a pipe
going into
going out of the ground
so that's why
they're round
Mr Donaldson
we'll be in touch.
Ah, nuts!
No, you're wrong.
You're overthinking it.
Right.
Because the reason is
because a circle like that
is the only shape
that if you angle it
at a funny way
it won't fall through.
Okay, right, yeah.
So if it's square,
it'll go in the corners
and it'll fall through.
It's basically just
a complete...
So we're just thinking about the actual...
Right, okay.
That's why.
But no one really knows that.
Clearly you don't.
Well, no.
I think I would still give you the job, though.
Why not just chain the cover to the inside of the things that won't fall through?
I don't understand the point.
What do you mean? Like chain the square manhole cover
to the inside of the pipe,
inside of the access tunnel.
Then it will fall.
If it does fall through,
it's going to...
That doesn't make any sense.
What do you mean it doesn't fall through?
It doesn't make any sense, does it?
What do you mean?
How are you going to get it out?
What?
If you're on the top,
how are you going to get it out?
Well, it...
It's on a chain.
You can't use it.
Yeah, but what is the problem with it falling through though
well if someone's at the bottom of it you're gonna brain them aren't you well just have a
chain long enough to hit that half of the ladder and not the bottom of the ladder like a cap on a
on a kind of car fuel cap i don't think of it like that i don't think even you think that's a good idea you've made a mess
there Donaldson
how can I turn this
into more of a weapon
Pete
would you consider
yourself someone
who's generally
good in job interviews
no
I think I've done
one
ever
ever
is that to get
the job at the government
for the graphic design thing
yeah
can you remember it
and even then
I only got it
because I knew
what FTP and HTTP means
it was that period
when no one knew
what technology was
no one knew
you could literally
if you were an evil person
you could literally
bullshit your way
but I accidentally
bullshitted my way through
and then quit
well I quit
six years later
oh you were there
for six years
I was there for ages
what you were an actual
I didn't know that
you were in a proper job
for six years
yeah
that seems mad now why is that mad who was your manager Steve Ellis What, you had an actual... I didn't know that. You had a proper job for six years? Yeah.
That seems mad now, doesn't it? Why is that mad?
Who was your manager?
Steve Ellis and Kate Worley.
Good guys?
Really good guys.
Do you reckon you were good to manage?
Kate Worley was a proper socialist firebrand in a quango, in a housing quango.
Did you think you were an easy person to manage?
Were you more about better behave then?
I was better behaved
but my job was
kind of like
you know
marketing
and website
and you know
it kind of
comprised a lot
of different roles.
I got a lot of software
I got them to buy
a lot of software.
I got you
tax mugs
to buy me a lot of software.
Adobe Illustrator
didn't need it.
Didn't need it
but nobody knew my job.
Why did you ask for it then?
Because I wanted to learn it
because I thought
it was an important skill.
It's not an important skill.
Did you learn it?
I did learn it, yeah.
Can you still use it now?
Yeah, I think so.
That's amazing.
People will be listening
to this baffled
that you had a job for six years.
Put that on my LinkedIn.
Endorse me on LinkedIn
for Illustrator.
Did you choose darkness then?
What do you mean?
I was distracted by darkness. This path you've gone down now? What do you mean? I was distracted
by darkness.
This path you've
gone down now.
I remember,
right,
there was,
when Half-Life 2,
the video game,
came out,
right,
Steam was the
delivery system for it.
It's an online kind of
how you buy Valve.
You buy Valve,
all that.
They,
for you to run it,
I believe,
you had to sort of,
on a computer,
you needed an internet connection.
Now,
I lived in a place
that didn't have
any internet at all.
And I had no way of doing it.
And so,
I took the hard drive
out of my computer at home
and it ended up
not actually working.
But,
I had my computer
completely open,
putting my hard drive into it.
What year was this?
God.
Whatever the year Half-Life 2 came out.
So what would that be?
You carry on.
I'll find out.
Don't worry.
You carry on.
Half-Life 2 release.
It was 2004.
You've been living this for a long time.
It's probably a little bit later than that,
to be honest.
But I've got my whole computer, my office computer, open. been living this for a long time. It's probably a little bit later than that, to be honest.
I've got my whole computer,
my office computer, open, and I'm putting my hard drive in, and I'm closing it up.
And that's not my job at all.
I shouldn't have the computers
open. But nobody
seemed to sort of bat an eye, like,
Pete's doing something. People indulged
me even back then. They probably thought,
he knows what he's doing here.
Did the IT department
never turned up at any point.
No, I think we had one guy
and I don't think even he...
Did game recognise game?
Did you nod at each other
like motorbike riders?
Yeah.
My face was smeared
with thermal paste.
I don't think...
I know I sound rude here
but I don't think
you're employable now
what do you mean?
because you've gone
more and more
kind of abstract
cannot do it
I'm probably the same
but in a different way
I don't like being told
what to do really
but you are more and more abstract
I think it's become
more and more
difficult to predict
your movements
as you've got older
do you know what I mean?
but that's what I mean
if I get a proper job,
I'll have to interview.
That's not going to go well.
No.
And,
you'd probably look quite good.
You'd dress yourself quite nicely,
I think.
Okay.
You wouldn't,
that's part of it.
That's part of it.
Okay, fine.
You'd probably be on,
would you be on time?
Hit and miss.
50-50 chance you'd be on time.
I'm on,
I'm pretty on time.
Yeah, you're on time today.
I'm on time today.
Thank you.
It's funny, isn't it?
Because,
because of the type of person you are,
in my mind,
I've filed you as unpunctual.
Right.
You're not actually that bad.
No.
But on the other hand,
because we've worked with some people
who are so poor,
it's...
Yeah, my slight misdemeanors...
You're just middling.
Yeah, my slight misdemeanors
don't even kind of
touch the sides, really.
I'm irritatingly punctual, aren't I?
Yeah.
Yeah, you'd say that. You'd say that. I don't think... Since we started sides really I'm irritatingly punctual aren't I yeah yeah
you'd say that
I don't think
since we started doing
the Ramble in this format
and the reason I use
the Ramble as an example
is because that's why
we have to start
first thing in the morning
I don't think
and it's been
throughout lockdown
when we've actually
been able to come in
I have never once
been late
that's fair yeah
no that's absolutely fine
do you know what the hack is
people listening might care
they probably won't
but they might
set off at the time that you're supposed to set off no I always aim for half hour early That's fair, yeah. No, that's absolutely fine. Do you know what the hack is? People listening might care. They probably won't, but they might.
Set off at the time that you're supposed to set off. No, I always aim for half hour early.
And if I get a half hour early,
I like the half hour on my own just to get my shit together.
I don't see it as wasted time.
No, I completely agree.
I would say that before I moved an hour and a half away,
there's a lot of variables in my thing now. And to be honest,
I'm... But the way you repeatedly
referenced that, that was bestowed upon you.
I know! No, I don't! I've said it once, and you've
clearly got an idea in your head that
I'm going to blame
that for being late.
You shouldn't be blaming that for being late.
The
most egregious... If I'm late,
I'm like half an hour late I'm like fucked late
you know
yeah fair enough
and it's because
I've forgotten that
it's not by design
I've forgotten that
we're getting early
I'm supposed to get in at 9
and I'm turning up at half past
what the fuck
why is everyone shouting at me
I would also
it's the same
it's the same
because I would also say
if you were going to be late
you might as well
just completely fuck it
because it looks like it's not your fault.
There are certain people in our world that are consistently five minutes late.
Yeah.
And I think that's more disrespectful than being occasionally half an hour late.
I think if you rock up an hour late, you can legitimately go,
well, there's nothing I can do.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
I did my best.
It's a force majeure, if you will. It's not the fact that I just can get, oh yeah, I missed the train because I can do. Yeah. You know what I mean? I did my best. It's a force majeure, if you like, if you will.
It's not the fact that I just can get,
oh yeah,
I missed the train
because I was being fucking sloppy.
Bike design,
I get in 10 past,
10 past nine,
and we're due to get there at up past.
There's a few variables
that get thrown in the mix.
And stop driving,
because that's a joke.
And one of the variables
is your dreadful stomach problem.
And my dreadful stomach problem.
But to be fair,
you always do muster.
I'll give you that credit.
Anyway, on that note, let's give a break.
When we come back, we're going to do battery brands.
And I've got another good email as well, which you're going to enjoy.
All right, then.
Stick around for that.
All right, farewell.
Yeah, we're back with a looking feature.
How are you doing?
It's Pete Donaldson and Luke Marr doing our things.
On every Thursday, we do battery brands.
And if you've never listened to the show before
we are basically
fascinated by the
full
smugglers board
gamut range
of
different battery bands
that you find
opening up bits of
technology
and you're like
where does this come from
why have they called it
Ultramax
Spare Boy
or
Electro Ions,
Ohms Law, Rotech?
Yeah.
Charge Pencil.
Charge Pencil.
Why have they called it that?
Skyscraper Power.
Yeah, that's a good one.
And it's invariably because it's a lot of Chinese,
broken English, I suppose.
But sometimes-
It's a racist microaggression.
It's a racist microaggression it's a racist microaggression
and we're sticking
with it
yeah boy
have we got some
battery brands
this week
Luke Moore
I've put three
in the
working
live document
that you are
able to read from
okie dokie
and I'm going to
search
so the first one
up is our
friend Sam
Sam
pulled these
from my
metronome,
Rabbit Conthos.
So you hear Rabbit
Conthos and you think that's got to be a new player.
Let me take you back to the 4th of
November last year.
Our listener and friend and
Luke and Peach are a family member, Ben
Roberts, also sent in
some Rabbit Conthos. So Sam, I can
imagine how excited you were when you saw it.
Unfortunately, you're not a new player. You're second.
Which is not bad for a rabbit contho.
No. But you're not a new player,
Sam. I've never had a contho with rabbit.
Sounds very nice. You're alright, rabbit.
You're cooking some very hot fat.
I meant like a conversation. I know, yeah.
I was doing a joke
on confit. Oh, confit.
Nice. I like it. That was closer to what we recorded as a joke on comfy. Oh, comfy. Nice. I like it.
That was closer to what we recorded as a joke, I would say.
Hi, guys.
Recently just found an old toy for my girlfriend's mum and dad.
Do not go into detail on that.
And found these inside.
Heng Weih Super Heavy Duty.
Now, this sounds like proper good old Chinese AA batteries,
to be quite frank.
Keep up the good work
across the whole of Stack.
Best wishes,
Billy.
Oh,
before I get into the detail on this,
I've only just put two in there.
That's alright,
that's fine.
We'll have a two week.
It's the second of two.
That is a new player.
What?
So congratulations to you,
Billy.
You have delivered a new player.
A new player has entered the game.
His name,
he's not said we can't use his full name,
so I'm going to use it.
Billy Hale, his name is.
Hale Hale.
Which is pleasingly close to...
Billy Hale in the comments.
No, he's Woody Harrelson's character
in White Man Can't Jump, Billy Hoyle.
Okay, good.
Iconic character in a movie.
Yeah, he's just a man who can't jump.
Exactly.
I can't remember the plot of that.
Why are there
two friends
and there's a bet?
Do you want it from start to finish
because I can do it?
Woody Harrelson turns up
at the
I think the Venice Beach
basketball courts
in California.
Okay.
And
Wesley Snipes' character
Sidney Dean
is the king of the court.
King of the court.
Yeah.
He's the fast talking, the wise
cracking, the great
player.
Is Wesley Snipes
particularly tall?
Not really, no.
No, that's why it's
funny, isn't it?
I'll come on to that
in a minute.
Right.
And Woody Harrelson
schools him.
Yeah.
He punks him.
Yeah.
He pretends he's not
very good.
Yeah.
Turns out he is really
good.
Right.
And people underestimate
him because he's white.
As they say, as one of
the characters, one of
the black characters
says in it, one of the
African-American players
says, I don't want to play with him
and he says why
and he says
because he's white
and someone else goes
because he's white
because the other person goes
and the other person goes
well he's white
look at him
and then Billy Hoyle goes
yeah I'm white
that's the premise
Wesley Snipes gets so butt hurt
by getting played
you either play
or you get played
he got played
he goes after Woody Harrelson
and they
they strike a pact.
Right.
They're going to go,
right,
here's what we're going to do.
We're going to go to all the unfamiliar courts
around LA.
And absolutely.
No,
I'm going to,
let me tell you,
I'm going to play,
says Wesley Snipes,
with another African-American player.
Yeah.
Right.
We're going to win
and then I'm going to get so overconfident,
I'm going to say to the other two African-American players
in the two-on-two basketball,
I'm so good, I will play with anyone here
and we'll still beat you.
At that exact moment, Woody Howser's character walks in,
dressed quite badly, looking white,
and they all go, okay, you're going to play with him.
And Wesley Snipes feigns it like, oh no, not him,
you're breaking the rules, I can't play with a white guy.
Turns out Woody Howser's great. They're going to Minnesota Fats him, they're going to hustler him. They do. feigns it like oh no not him you're breaking the rules I can't play with a white guy turns out
Woody Harrison's
great
they're going
to Minnesota
Fats him
they're going
to Hustler him
they do
and it's a bit
more complicated
than that
and it culminates
with the fact
that there's a
big tournament
at the end
and Woody Harrison's
a bit of a degenerate
and he can't
keep hold of his
money because he's
a gambler
and all the rest
of it
Rosie Perez
plays his wife
she's amazing
it's a great
movie
it's a great
great movie
and the thing
that really
makes it work
is that Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrison
are both very good basketball players.
So I think Woody Harrison played for his college
quite a good level.
I think Wesley Snipes did as well.
And the basketball consultants for the movie said,
yeah, you don't actually really need to use standards for this.
Yeah.
But it's quite interesting
because the cameo other players they play against,
I think are all recently retired NBA players.
Ah, okay.
Yeah, it's good.
It's a great movie.
That sounds like a fun little romp.
It's one of those movies that,
when it comes on, I'll always watch it.
I'll always watch it.
When does it ever come on?
It never comes on.
It's one of those movies that,
when I put it on, I always watch it.
Anyway, congratulations to you, Billy Hoyle.
Billy Halele Billy Hale
Billy Hale
you got a new player
out of the game
smashing stuff
there we go
there's an email here
Peter from
Jack
I want you to read it
yeah alright
listener Jack
says
hello Luke and Pete
got a big bone to pick
with you
more so Luke
than Pete
on Saturday
I was due to visit
Krakow
on a lads holiday
for a week
unfortunately
I realised the night before I hadn't renewed my passport.
Oh, mate, killer.
So instead, me and my missus, who was on Easter holiday, teacher, not a kid,
decided to have a domestic break,
which sounds like you've broken up for a bit.
You know what I mean?
Like a domestic and a break-up.
I'm worried about him going to Krakow with his mates for a week
a week
a week
yeah
what have you got
salt mine
first day
yeah
probably
pub
schnitzel
head to
the
concentration camp
obviously
go to Vizsla Krakow
yeah
and then
that's all of it
really innit
I've been there
that's all that's all there is to do I isn't it? I've been there. That's all there is to do.
I've also been there.
I've also been there.
Good stuff.
Anyway, yeah, we chose Norwich after listening to your recent podcast.
We chose Norwich from Luke's high praise.
What a regret!
After arriving at midday on a sunny Thursday,
it didn't take long before the drama had begun.
Within the first hour exploring the city,
we were witness to a bloke smashing his girlfriend's phone off the floor over and over.
Then he stole her baby in pram and ran up the hill.
Someone intervened and he threw a one-two bang,
which didn't cause any damage, luckily.
Good God.
Then we went back to the pub connected to our hotel.
We were sat next to a group of 20 to 24-year-olds
ranting about how they were going to kidnap and stab a bloke
that had upset one of their sisters
the man in question was apparently strapped up
but these lads had no fear
this all happened before 5.30 in the afternoon
I was going to say because that was my favourite episode of Happy Hour
that
after that we decided to go for a cheeky tie
and head back to our room early
my girlfriend has now banned me from picking our next weekend visit location After that, we decided to go for a cheeky tie and head back to our room early.
My girlfriend has now banned me from picking our next weekend visit location.
So, yeah, from my experience, Norwich isn't the best shout for a UK city visit.
We didn't even get to meet Robbie Knox.
Yours sincerely, Jack.
And he followed up with an email saying, Hi again, just to update.
Next day was a lot more fun.
I take it back.
We went on a pub crawl.
I met lots of good people.
Maybe I was preemptive with my judgment.
Thanks to the great podcasts every single week. Jack jack i like the fact that he wrote that email
in his room pissed off at us yeah because the first email so i think so the first email came in
yeah um this is jack dempsey is the and he didn't say again we couldn't use his surname jack dempsey
great boxer by the way the first one came in at midnight yeah on friday night oh it's a nicely
written email for those we get in the early hours i would say the second one came in um midnight on Friday night. Uh oh. It's a nicely written email for those we get in the early hours
I would say.
The second one came in
shall we say
in the morning
when maybe some water
had been taken on board
and a hearty breakfast
and Jack was feeling
that all was right
with the world again.
Can I take issue
with something
Jack says there?
Okay.
And this might be something
that you might want
to help with
but if you can't
maybe our listening community can.
Why do people say
a cheeky this
or a cheeky that
am I missing something
what does it mean
I remember
because cheeky
feels like something
like oh
we shouldn't have been
it's naughty isn't it
I cheekily parked
in the disabled
supermarket car park
or whatever
I had a little cheeky
whatever
a cheeky tyre
there's nothing to stop
Jack and his girlfriend
having a tyre they want
this is the confession room
what I'm just saying what's cheeky about it it's all cheeky all cheeky tie there's nothing to stop Jack and his girlfriend having a tie they want this is the confession room what I'm just saying
what's cheeky about it
it's all cheeky
all cheeky
ooh
I blame Danny Dyer for this
is this a Danny Dyer thing
that people have called
no I think it's a posh thing
I remember a lad
who went out
with my
missus's
mate
who was very posh
and she couldn't get it
out of her head
he went at one point
let's go
shall we go to
Cheeky Chinese it sounds worse than a posh accent she couldn't get it out of her head that he went at one point let's go shall we go to Cheeky Chinese
it sounds worse
than a posh accent
I thought it came from
Cheeky Nando's
people talk about
Cheeky Nando's
yeah it was Cheeky whatever
Cheeky whatever
I don't like it
like a naughty
I'm against it
like a naughty Lambrusco
that sort of thing isn't it
a naughty Lambrusco
that sort of thing isn't it
that sounds like a sex move
who you doing a naughty Lambrusco
I put an O in the wall I was doing a naughty Lambrusco. I put an O in the wall.
I was doing the naughty Lambrusco,
weren't I?
That's going to cost.
On that note,
Jack Dempsey's big rant against Norwich
that he then takes back instantly.
We're going to get out of here.
Thank you very much for listening
to the Luke and Pete show
for another week.
We've enjoyed talking to you.
I hope you've enjoyed listening to it.
If you've got any issue at all
with my plot description
of white men can't jump
or anything else
we've spoken about today
please do let us know
hello at lukeandpitch.com
we should do an extra
battery brand next Thursday
to make up
yeah we'll do four next time
we'll get producer Rory on it
lovely
well I tell you what
it's cheeky about this
this recording
we didn't even tell producer Rory
we're doing it
we didn't
we were doing a rambling
let's do a little pitch
you're going to send in the audio
he's going to be like what no he's not he he's gonna be like well that's another extra job i've
got to do that well you'll have to do it eventually schedule but you'll have to actually fundamentally
listen to it which is upsetting we get a lot of um well not a lot but a good amount of emails and
contact from people saying oh would you mind um talking to us on this panel about how um
the podcast industry works yeah and i don't do it because all I'll be saying is
we do what we want
and all the other people
do all the hard work
that's basically how it is
sometimes we don't even
tell them the work
they've got to do
we just land it
in their inbox
here's a little
cheeky John Fletcher
yeah Rory
are you having a nice day
yeah
so sorry to Rory
sorry Rory
and before we go
I would also like to say
that
no he's gone all serious
people should listen to Eureka
yes
shouldn't they
yeah
people should listen to Eureka
so Rick Edwards
great broadcaster
Dr Michael Brooks
also a great broadcaster
and a proper real life scientist
they answer a different
scientific question
each week
if you like the Luke and Pete show
you will really like it
so don't muck around
stop mucking around
head over to
your podcast
app of choice type in eureka and subscribe it's a fantastic show the episode they did about um so
some of the example episodes are will we ever talk to animals i was fortunate enough to do a bit of
production on that and it's a brilliant brilliant um episode and they've also got an episode called
do we really need maths right is really, really interesting.
So check that out as well.
But listen to all of them.
They're great.
They come out every week over a eureka.
So look, search the word eureka wherever you get your pods.
Give it a listen.
I just wanted to squeeze that M before we went, Peter.
Definitely.
Lovely old job.
Just like you're squeezing your elbow there.
Scratch up.
I just.
Is it painful?
Can you do a eureka on my elbow, please?
You should ask Dr. Michael Brooks about it.
He might be able to help you.
Is he that kind of doctor he does quantum physicists
right
quantum physics
I can't even say it
some cells in my arm
might be doing
something different
in a different reality
well some of them
might be there
and some of them
might not be there
but at the same time
that's probably why
he's got so much
bother in there
exactly
we'll be back on Monday
