Pete, do you remember what the follow-up single to Dr. Alband's It's My Life was?
It was my life? Like a farewell, kind of, now the end is near?
It's called Let The Beat Go On.
Oh, nice.
And it goes like this.
Let the beat go on, on and on, here it's strong.
And then Dr. Alband comes in and goes, let the beat go on.
It's the Luke and Pete show.
Welcome.
It is Monday.
Let's have a look here.
What day is it?
10th.
10th.
10th of May.
Welcome back after Jim Campbell's cameo.
Yes.
Very popular.
Sickeningly popular.
Annoyingly popular.
He told a brilliant story about the model Fabio.
He was a curious chap back in the day, wasn't he?
I imagine he's not going to have got less curious now, is he?
As men get older, they get more curious, don't they?
They certainly do.
And their tastes as well.
He kind of inhabits the same part of the world in my brain
as Yuri Geller for some reason.
There's these kind of like ephemeral kind of...
Geller would be after that.
Not physically,
but just weird men
that have eked out a living somehow.
I mean, he's a good looking bloke,
tall, muscular.
What, Uri Geller?
In the 90s.
And in the 90s and the 80s,
obviously,
he was a cut above everyone else.
But it's just interesting
that he managed to carve out a career
just by being a handsy man.
What do you think Uri Geller's doing right now?
Probably just making some money out of lies.
It's really hard to imagine Uri Geller
sat there with the TV guy on his lap
just flicking through,
having a day off,
treating himself to a day off.
I find with really intense people,
intense public figures...
They never stop.
It's really hard to imagine them doing something normal.
Yeah.
I can remember being
absolutely fuming
fuming
about 15 years ago
when
I saw
I don't know what
I don't know why
I might have been in the waiting room
at a doctor's surgery or something
but I saw a
a celebrity magazine
and it had
a picture of David Bowie
going to get a pint of milk
yes okay
it just pissed me off
I don't want to see him do that.
But I mean, Uri Geller,
you could probably,
I mean, he's probably on an oligarch's yacht.
What I don't like is
if people listen to this show
and don't know who Uri Geller is,
they're going to think
he was a cross between Fabio and David Bowie
and that's not true.
He's a cross between Richard Simmons
for our American audience
and...
A bit of Richard Lewis in there as well.
One of the kind of Donald Trumpian kind of like,
with a cabinet kind of like...
A shyster.
A shyster.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A shyster.
Yeah.
What's a huckster versus a shyster?
I don't really know.
A grifter.
Yeah, a grifter.
A grifter.
That's probably a less offensive way.
So there's probably some kind of connotation
with saying what I said.
Well, that's the thing.
I didn't mean it.
I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it.
But that's the problem with anti-Semitic,
and I presume that's the sphere
you were kind of referring to,
anti-Semitic kind of words,
like things like shonky.
That had anti-Semitic connotations.
I moved down to London,
I never heard that.
To be honest,
I didn't see a lot of anti-Semitism up north,
but down south,
seems to be everyone's at it.
But yeah, down south,
I really like the word
shonky
but apparently
back in the day
that was
I'd never heard that
word until you said it
shonky
really
for like dodgy
or
yeah
kind of like
knock off
sort of thing
you can see why
that would be
I would just say
dodgy probably
speaking of
knock offs
before we get into
the meat of this show
and for those who
are listening for the
first time
and are new
converts to this show
don't worry
this kind of stuff does maintain throughout
I know you're probably thinking we can't do it
I know you joined Jim last week
but we're not into the meat of the show yet
and before we get into the meat of the show
I want our listeners to know
that part of the reason you were away last week
is because you had a birthday
a big birthday
big boy
don't want to talk about it unless you wanted to.
I'm a big boy.
I'm a 40-year-old boy.
Yeah, you're a 40-year-old boy.
I've got a little moustache and a ponytail.
And myself and John, who isn't represented on this show,
but he's a friend of ours and a colleague of ours
and a co-business owner of ours,
we put our heads together and thought we'd get you
a present for your birthday.
Okay.
And I've brought a couple of presents in.
There's going to be one being delivered to your house,
which you can report back to us in
future Luke and Peach
episode.
So look out for that.
This is doing my
nothing because you
know what I'm like
whenever I get given
a present I get really
angry.
That's why I'm doing
it on the show because
you're going to be
pissed off and I think
that's a really important
part of the Luke and
Peach show.
Because I'm fairly
certain I can't remember
getting you anything.
I got you something
Christmas.
Don't worry about it.
You've got me a
lovely wagging steak.
I'm terrible at knowing when people's birthdays are,
and I only find it on Facebook,
and then it's too fucking late, innit?
I'm not on Facebook.
Well, there you go.
Put your Britishness away.
Put your awkwardness away.
Right.
And take these presents
and open them live on Luke and Pete's show right now.
Right.
I'm on a diet,
so I can't eat whatever this is.
Nothing's edible.
Nothing's edible.
I'll be the judge of that. Yeah, enjoy it. You're rapping, Peter. Nothing's edible. Nothing's edible. I'll be the judge of that.
Yeah, enjoy it.
Lovely wrapping paper.
Explain to people what you're doing.
Yeah, Mimi wrapped that.
Me, well, fantastic rapper, producer.
Oh, fantastic.
Yeah, just a brown paper, kind of leafy.
Oh, fuck off, Luke.
What is it?
Describe what it is.
It's a fucking little bobblehead,
a bobble buddy of fucking Del Boy.
Oh, and there's others.
Cheers.
What else?
Who else?
Oh, is that Rodney?
It's Rodney, you plonker.
That is amazing that they've made those.
I mean, look.
I'll tell you what it is.
It's lovely jubbly.
That's what it is.
Are these shunky?
Ask me no questions, I'll tell you why.
Official merch, mate.
You know what?
They're beautifully done.
They're clearly not mass produced,
because who the fuck would?
That's cracking, that.
But there's one more present for you.
Uncle Albert, you can get a boy, see a trigger,
or a granddad.
Yeah, we went for the big three hitters, I think.
For us, Uncle Albert is the era we kind of...
And because it's on the show, tax deductible.
What could be better than you
and the lady you have access to at home...
Friday night, bottle of Prosecco in the chiller.
Tia Maria and Lucas Aid on the go, like Del Boy.
What is it, Pete?
It's a Monopoly
Only Fools and Horses version.
Yeah.
And instead of like the dog
and the little kind of trinkets
you use to go around
the Monopoly board.
The counters, yeah.
The counters.
You've got the little
Trotters Independent
trading company van.
You've got a cocktail
because obviously
Dale loves his cocktail
and I mean
I don't
I've not watched enough
of Vornipo's
Get your box on
on a Friday night
play your Monopoly
Where are the places
you can go?
A touch of glass
400
Heroes and Villains
Are they just
episode titles?
I think so yeah
That's an interesting
could they not find
enough places
for the TV show?
They should have just done
London I think because it's set in London anyway they not find enough places they should have just done London I think
because it's set in London
anyway
The Reliant Regal
Big Brother
The Longest Night
yeah just like
Boyce's Car Lot
you can buy that
well this is very sweet
will you ever buy it
thank you
no
no you won't
it's going to sit
in the corner
it will
because you did it now
it will survive
the house move
and that annoys me
The Reliant Regal
I'm just fascinated
by how they sort of
do these
it's a lovely bit of kit
really
from me and John
and from everyone
listening on the
Luke and Pete show
very happy birthday
to you mate
thank you very much
going into my 40s
in the manner
befitting a man
who used to watch
Charlie Fils-A-Horse
on television
you will
perhaps not get much enjoyment
out of the presents,
but we've all enjoyed
seeing you open them
and I think that's part
of the reason
that's a good thing.
Thank you very much.
That's very kind.
You're welcome.
Thank you.
No problem at all.
And one thing I did want
to bring to the table as well
because it's something
that you were quite excited about
was you noticed
and found online
the other day
the world's biggest duck.
And I'll be honest with you,
I thought it was fake.
But apparently it's not.
And the reason I thought it was fake
is partly because it looks
fucking ridiculous. It does look ridiculous.
It is a metre tall mallard.
It looks like a doorstop.
It looks like a doorstop that's the size of a door.
Made of plaster of Paris and painted.
And it's also called Long Boy, B-O-I,
which is exactly what you would name the world's tallest duck.
So do you reckon I could kind of get away with seeding fake stories
to the logo picture?
Oh, come on.
If you just told me now that you've been doing that for years
and I haven't done it, I wouldn't be hugely surprised.
The long egg man was actually me in a beard.
Yeah, a metre high duck is an amazing thing.
And the thing, I mean, we'll share the photo of it
that I'm referring to on the social media.
But if you look at the photo, Pete,
have you got it in front of you?
I have, yeah.
Look at its feet.
It looks like it's wearing like a pair of orange wellies.
Weirdos, yeah.
And it is next to, it looks like it's doing fishing, isn't it?
It looks like a human man.
It's three foot five tall.
Yeah.
What do you think the other ducks think of it?
Long boy.
Look at that long boy.
They're going,
ooh, what's the weather like up there?
I'm a duck sitting down here.
Oh, did your parents put you in a grove back when you were young?
And Slim Jim,
the US-based meat sausage procurers. Tell me about Slim Jim. US based meat sausage
procurers
tell me about Slim Jim
I don't know who they are
Macho Man Randy Savage
used to work
they're like pepperamis
but thinner
and in my opinion
greasier and tastier
okay so it's like
oh no I think I have seen
they're really bright red
yeah
Macho Man Randy Savage
advertised them
yeah me
I mean
okay
they're on nodding terms with me
I thought they were like
sweet
no no no but they is no, no, no.
But they...
Is that how this duck got so big?
Eating Slim Jim?
It loves them.
It's got one caught on its throat
and it's like lengthened out.
Yeah.
It's like when the African tribes people
put the rings around their neck.
Yeah.
If you eat a Slim Jim,
your neck goes really tall
and you can't digest it.
Yeah.
Slim Jim commented as the one true long boy
on the Twitter page.
I'm not sure how I feel about this. I didn't like Slim Jim commented as the one true long boy on the Twitter page. I'm not sure how I
feel about this.
I didn't know
Slim Jim's regard
they're the slimmest
boy surely.
Yeah.
Why are you getting
involved?
I didn't know Slim
Jim's were known
as long boys.
Exactly.
I would like to
see the long boy
eating a Slim Jim.
The thing I like
about the long boy
the duck.
Big, big duck.
How long is that
going to live?
I like that he's
still around now because far too often you talk about the long boy, the duck? It's a big, big duck. How long is that going to live? I like that he's still around now,
because far too often you talk about the heaviest this,
the tallest that, the biggest this.
The chicken that lived a day without its head.
No, it's 30 days without its head.
The 30 days, right.
And the worst thing about the chicken,
so the chicken had its head chopped off,
but the person who did it did a bad job
and did cut the brain stem.
Yeah.
But what they were doing, if you remember,
was dropping corn
down its neck hole
yeah
so it stayed alive
for like 30 days
it didn't need its head
you would finish it off
wouldn't you
but I've done something
abhorrent here
I think when we first
started talking about it
I thought this was
a fascinating story
and like halfway through
at the time
I think I had that
sinking feeling
that this is a bit gross
and so
but we just pressed on
yeah
but what I was going to say was
a corn manufacturer
tweeted in going
I'm the original
corn guzzler
yeah
necky corn guzzler
yeah
if Pete chops his head off
I'll definitely sponsor the show
but the point I was going to make
is that a lot of times
with these biggest ever
like the tallest ever man
Robert Wadlow
yeah he died ages ago
yeah
the fact is
Longboy
can be seen
at the University of York
whenever you want now.
Yeah.
And it's not going to be hard to find him, let's be honest.
No, he's going to stick out like a big thumb, a long thumb.
Yeah, so great stuff to have Longboy around.
Official animal of the show.
Official duck of the show, for sure.
Probably official animal of the show.
Let him have it.
Yeah, would you...
The dogs you've got access to
might be the two official animals of the show.
Yeah, I guess so.
But one of them doesn't really like ducks
and one of them is a real bird agnostic,
but not necessarily the biggest fan of...
Antagonist, you mean?
Well, agnostic, he will be indifferent,
but then he'll sort of go,
that's because he believes in them.
Doesn't matter.
Anyway, either way, he's not happy.
He believes that they could exist,
but he's not to see the evidence for them.
Yeah, exactly. He sees something that looks like a bird, he'll try and attack it because he just doesn't matter anyway either way he's not happy he believes that they could exist but he's not seen the evidence yeah exactly
he sees something
that looks like a bird
he'll try and attack it
because he just doesn't understand
did you see
did they have a good time
when you guys went away
had a cracking time
dog friendly hotel probably
yeah
we stayed in
Potlim Zoo
for the night
and
so a mate
we both know
had a
bought his family
I know this story
it's a good one
bought his family
tickets to the zoo
like a night in the zoo
Port Limbs Safari Park
they do
like a stay over
kind of like
little trip
and
he
he's now got a dog
so he can't take
it would just be a pain
in the bum
to administer
I think taking families away is fraught with don't put you can take a dog to a zoo dog so he can't take it would just be a pain in the bum to to administer I think taking families away
is fraught with
don't put you can take a dog
to a zoo anyway
no you can't
because I think they can
carry diseases
and let's face it
chase the capybaras around
yeah
that's how much fun they'd have
yeah
and so
he rang us and went
do you
you like zoos
yeah
this is the reputation
I have Luke
yeah
I have a reputation
of being
a mark
when it comes to people selling stuff
and
loving zoos and being
a child boy. I'm happy to make it
absolutely clear now to you and to everyone listening
if you've got anything
if there is tat that you've come into possession
of that you want to get rid of
I promise you now
in many ways,
ironically,
because you hate
Only Fools and Horses,
you are at the delbo of it.
I'm not ashamed to say,
our friend we're talking about there,
he called me for advice about this.
I said, call Pete.
I said, call Pete.
I promise you I told him to call you.
Because I like,
I would have took it off him anyway.
But the point being that you didn't realise
you'd already had that lined up as a surprise
for your birthday.
Yeah.
So now you're going to the same place.
Same place.
Not the same little house.
But yeah, I went,
do you want to come away?
June, whatever.
Do you want to come away?
He went, yeah, brilliant.
I went, we're going to the zoo.
He went, we're going to the zoo tomorrow
because it's your birthday, you prick.
Do you know what I love about it?
The people who run that zoo, they're going to think you're just really into it birthday you prick do you know what I love about it the people who run that zoo
they're going to think
you're just really into it
he's back
he's back straight away
he can't get enough of it
well luckily
one of our friends
is a zookeeper there
so we can have a drink with him
well you were a zookeeper
I was a zookeeper
you can have a drink
you'll have a drink with me
in the zoo
well he informed me
in a trough
he informed me on my first
all three of you
around a trough
just having a drink
with a zookeeper on my first trip We'll three of you around a trough. Just having a drink with a zookeeper.
On my first trip to the zoo this month, inexplicably,
I learned that the gibbons have been upgraded
from the lesser ape to just...
There's no lesser apes anymore
because they were getting...
What, offensive?
They were getting shot...
It's like shonky.
The shonky ape.
Yeah.
They were getting a bit of...
They weren't getting quite so much love, the gibbon,
because they're just not as interesting
as the Rangitangs.
They've been remarketed.
They've been remarketed.
No lesser apes.
What, worldwide?
Worldwide, Ben.
Not just in that zoo.
No, exactly.
We think they're elephants.
Andy Cole, rebranding Andrew Cole.
They've decided that they are no longer lesser apes
and this is hopefully going to sort of increase
the interest that people have got
on that particular part of the genus.
For you,
this is like when Kings of Leon went mainstream.
You don't like it anymore, do you?
No, I don't like it, no.
You don't like it anymore.
Hateful situation, I tell you.
So how close do you get
to get to the animals
when you're doing
the overnight stay in the zoo?
And for you,
what is the optimal amount
of times a year
you want to stay there?
Well, there's no
gibbon experience.
I think you can sort of
chuck some feed out
for the paddocky animals, like the camels and stuff.
But I just love watching animals.
It's my favourite thing to do.
And they've got a great Gibbon enclosure.
Should camels be in a paddock?
Well, this place is the best zoo.
You know, you can have opinions about zoos and stuff,
but the space they've got is insane.
Like, it's like acres and acres and acres.
And compared to the zoo that I had access to.
Not as big as Africa, though, is it?
It's not.
But animals, John, generally, you know,
I'm not in the pocket of a big zoo,
although I was employed for 50 quid a day.
50 quid a day?
Yeah, 50 quid a day.
To make a CD-ROM.
No, 50 quid a week.
To make a CD-ROM.
50 quid a week to make a CD-ROM.
That I didn't make.
Back in the day. What quality of CD-ROM are you getting for 50 quid a week. To make a CD-ROM. 50 quid a week to make a CD-ROM, that I didn't make. Back in the day.
What quality of CD-ROM are you getting for 50 quid a week, though?
I know.
Well, I didn't get it.
Animals don't necessarily move on to new pastures
until they've exhausted the food source.
If they exhaust the food source, that's why they keep moving.
If they've got enough food and water, they don't move.
So they don't necessarily need as much space
as one might think as an animal.
It's not great to see animals behind bars, behind cages.
This sounds like you're telling me
that you think zoos are too big, if anything.
I think they should be smaller.
Yeah.
Pack them in.
There's nuance to this, isn't there?
Because if the animals are endangered
or they've been born in captivity
or it's important for research and all the rest of it,
I understand you can further the understanding
and protect them.
Well, protect them as in they literally have,
they literally would not have babies in captivity.
They wouldn't have babies if they weren't in the zoo.
You know, you have these breeding programs
that go out and take the rhinos back
to where they're supposed to be
because, you know, successive governments
where the rhinos are have not treated them very well.
They've let porches come in
and nick their keratin-rich horns.
Do you draw the line at travelling zoos?
I just want to see a little bear
with little spurs in his feet.
Easier, isn't it?
They come to you.
Easier.
We're not endorsing.
We're not endorsing any kind of cruelty.
I would like to see the massive...
Despite what some vegans email us in about.
Oh, really? What?
Because I think sometimes vegans email in
saying,
oh, we're talking
about steak again.
Right, okay.
I mean, we talked about
the long duck.
Yeah.
That's pro-duck, isn't it?
And also at the time
of recording,
very much alive.
Exactly.
Which we endorse.
Yeah.
And I hope it has
a very happy long life.
A long boy life.
So we've got a long neck.
Happy longy,
longy, longy.
Let's have a break, shall we?
Yeah.
Take us to a break,
Pete Donaldson.
You're better at it.
We are in front of the bar
and we're about to fall
through the bar
into the second half
of the show.
Enjoy the adverts.
Rodney,
you a plonker.
It is the Luke and Pete
Show,
Pete Donaldson with you.
I'm also joined by Luke
Moore.
If you want to get to the
show,
it's really easy.
Hello,
LukeandPeteShow.com.
Get your emails in.
Yeah. How are we doing email wise? We're doing okay. All right. I mean, if you want to get to short it's really easy hello at lookingpeachshort.com get your emails in yeah
how are we doing email wise
we're doing good to you
alright
I mean over the next course
of the couple of episodes
this week
we're probably going to answer
the dinosaur genitalia
question finally
thank you
we're going to do some
university advice
for one of our listeners
we're going to do some more
come down with me chat
but I want to start with
Mark who's tweeted in
now this is great, this.
And part of the reason I like it
is because it's a great life hack,
but also because I think it's something
you're really going to vibe with, Pete.
And Mark tweeted us in the following.
He said, and we're at Luke and Pete Shaw
on Twitter and Instagram.
He said, when I was working in a pub,
we used to have a regular
who would order a Chinese from the local takeaway
for delivery to his house at closing time and then just pop round
and get a lift home from the delivery man
because he knew he was going to his gaff anyway.
That is a life hack.
That is the very definition of a life hack.
It's quite a specific life hack, isn't it?
Yeah, I mean, you would get annoyed after a while,
wouldn't you?
Have we even spoken about this before on the show?
I may have read it and thought,
we have to speak about this.
This is incredible.
What an absolute ledge.
It's a brilliant idea.
Yeah, fantastic.
Mark doesn't say whether he did it as well.
It's one of those things
where you have the idea
and you sort of go,
I wonder if this would be acceptable.
And then you think,
no, that wouldn't be acceptable
in any walk of life.
Would the delivery driver be within his rights to charge more money, do you think? Yeah, you'd certainly expect a tip, wouldn't be acceptable in any walk of life. Would the delivery driver be within his rights
to charge more money, do you think?
Yeah, you'd certainly expect a tip, wouldn't you?
So I was on a, I was playing a bit of PUBG
with my mate the other night.
And obviously you're on the old...
Headset.
Yeah.
And he said, oh yeah.
Shouting racial platitudes.
No, no, I was shouting, I was shouting,
like really, like great army shouts that I've only seen on TV. No, no, I was shouting, I was shouting, like, really, like,
great army shouts
that I've only seen on TV.
Right, okay.
Check your six!
Check your six!
Check your six!
Breach! Breach! Breach!
Fan out!
Fan out.
Slice the pie.
Yeah.
The eagle has landed.
But anyway,
he was saying to me,
look, get ready for the next game.
I'm just going to order
fish and chips on Deliveroo.
Yeah, okay. Right, so, and I can still hear him on the phone, on the headset, right? he was saying to me look get ready for the next game I'm just going to order a fish and chips on Deliveroo yeah okay
right so
and I can still hear him
on the phone
on the headset right
yeah
why is he ringing
Deliveroo
well I'm going to tell you
I'm going to tell you
because he orders it on Deliveroo
the last time he's ordered
Deliveroo
he's at his mate's house
oh
miles away
and he forgot to change
his dress
yes
and I said to him
well fish and chips
are what a tenner
right
yeah
it's a pain
why don't you just order
another lot
and your mate gets a surprise fish and chips.
No, he's not here.
He ain't going to get it.
I'm going to call up the restaurant.
Restaurant.
Well, whatever.
Call up the fish and chip shop.
Just hold that number off the Google.
Yeah.
And says, hello.
I've got it wrong.
Yeah, I've done this.
I've done that.
And they've said, well, there's nothing we can do about it.
We just give the food to the Deliveroo driver.
You're going to have to call Deliveroo.
And he was like, how do I call Deliveroo?
To me, I was like,
you can call Deliveroo.
I think you can, Kyle.
You can't call Deliveroo.
Is there not a number
where you can ring?
Anyway, he sends him
a message and says,
ends up putting a message
on the Deliveroo app
to the Deliveroo driver
saying, don't go to
that address.
Come to this address
and I'll pay you
an extra fiver.
Right.
But the Deliveroo driver
thinks it's a scam
because you would, right?
You think I'm going to get murdered or something.
I ain't doing that.
Anyway, cut a long story short,
he had to just wear the loss
and then buy another load of fish and chips on Deliveroo.
To me, that seems like it should happen a lot more
than you'd hear about.
And that's a very obvious flaw in the app.
Because you're playing...
We're not sponsored by them this month, are we?
I have done a...
Well, you know, I mean, it has,
but if the restaurant's done what is acceptable,
you know, deliver who have a certain duty of care
to their drivers, presumably.
The fish and chip shop, they're free of blame
as soon as they...
Sorry, not negligent.
No, the opposite to that.
Their negligence is negligible.
Yes, absolutely, because they hand it over to the driver.
That's the driver's...
Take this.
Yeah, take it off you go. Take this.
Have you ever done that?
You must have done that.
Yeah, I've delivered things to the wrong address.
Yeah, I'm fairly certain.
What, turned through a letter box?
Wrong house, sorry.
Yeah.
For my 40th, a mate got us...
Apple have got these new little kind of tags
that you can put on your keys or something,
and you can do it on track your iPhone or whatever.
So if you've lost your keys in your house
you can sort of look around
so this is a good idea
what's wrong with the old
what's that
in the 90s
what do you mean what's that
little key ring
whistle key ring
oh no
you've lost them
you whistle
similar sort of thing
I suppose
for about 100 quid probably
yeah
but that went missing
ironically
did it
yeah
I needed a tracker
to track it
in what way
it just went
it went in my old house.
Oh, it never made it onto the King Room.
And then I got a message from Hermes going,
Hi, guys.
If you want your package redelivered,
thinking it was this package,
you've just got to go to this website
and type in your fucking credit card details.
And I got phished.
I got fucking phished.
Did you?
I'm turning into a senile little idiot, mate.
How did that happen?
Because they got me
at a sleepy time
and I typed in
not one.
Times a sleepy time?
People are going to
scam you.
10am.
Any time between
8 and 8.
Yeah, I typed in
not one but two
credit card details
so I had to cancel
both my credit cards.
Oh, that is a pain.
Fucking prick.
I won't name them
because it would be
unfair but one of
our colleagues here got hacked by a Twitter phishing scam. Oh, that is a pain. Fucking prick. I won't name them because it would be unfair, but one of our colleagues here
got hacked by a Twitter
phishing scam.
Oh yeah,
I think we spoke about it
before and the hacker
somehow had my phone number.
Yeah.
He said,
hi, I am Polish hacker,
ha ha.
Yeah, but the first thing...
It was a thousand dollars
or something?
Yeah, the thing that
convinced him,
that tricked him,
was an email purporting
to be from Twitter,
which started with,
hello, dear.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Look, companies are always
being friendly like that,
aren't they?
Hello, dear.
Hello, dear.
Anyway, thanks for that
life hack, Mark.
I want to squeeze this email
in as well before we go,
which is from James Burrows.
And this is something
I hadn't considered.
And I have to concede.
I feel a little bit silly now.
Now it's been made kind of clear to me.
It feels kind of obvious.
James Burrows has been in touch saying,
Hi guys, one of the more random emails I've composed in my life.
But here we go.
The reason dinosaurs don't have genitals and breasts on display
is because they are lizards oh
shit breasts are a mammal only thing right so the female dinosaurs would not have any on display
aromadillo is not uh lizardy good point check it out i don't know they're one of those animals
that you think is one thing but it's another yeah like um you would be like you would be
well within your rights that's a mammal oh there. Like, you would be well within your rights
to think.
That's a mammal.
Oh, there you go then.
You'd be well within your rights
to think, for example,
that a dolphin is a fish.
It's not.
Yeah, okay, right.
It's a mammal.
It breathes air, you know?
I mean, that was
a clone on The Simpsons
where that episode
where Homer gets a new son.
I've never seen it.
Yeah, he goes,
dolphins aren't actually a fish.
They're mammals like you and I.
And Homer's kid goes, is that true, Homer? He goes, it. Yeah, he goes, dolphins aren't actually fish. Their mum was like, you and I. And Homer's kid goes,
is that true, Homer?
He goes, no.
Yeah.
And I think sometimes
the old evolution does trick us.
Because the duck-billed platypus,
for example,
when that was first discovered
and sent to some kind of biologist
or whatever,
they thought it was a joke.
They thought it was a hoax.
Oh, they thought...
Because they thought
there's no way it can be a real animal.
It's been stitched together
by those different things.
Anyway, so yeah.
So James says,
male dinosaurs would more than likely
have what's called a hemipenis,
which is basically an inverted pouch
where the genitals are held
until they're needed.
That's what you've got, isn't it?
I mean, that's good.
I think that would
solve a lot of problems.
We wouldn't need to buy pants.
Better for playing football.
Correct.
Yeah, correct. I mean, you would... I think that would solve a lot of problems wouldn't it better for playing football correct yeah correct
I mean
you would
how would you do
like a kind of
a sexy selfie
yeah
because it's not needed
no it's not
if you're apart from your partner
you'd be like Ken
from a Barbie and Ken
exactly yeah
if you
if you
it would be so mysterious
what was in there
if you had a one night stand
and you closed off
for the first time
and the other party involved
was like
what's going on
and you went
give it a second
I've got a hemi
penis
I only take them
out when I need
that would be
surprising I think
but anyway lizards
are not ashamed of
them and why
should they be
that's how it
works for them
James says I
hope that explains
why you never
see dinosaur dicks
and boobs
yeah it does
James thanks
thanks very much
dinosaur dicks
and boobs great album great album enjoyable yeah so great Thanks. Thanks very much. Dinosaur dicks and boobs.
Great album.
Great album.
Yeah, so great from James
to get in touch about that.
I really appreciate it.
And I do feel a bit silly
because I didn't really
think it through
when I talked about it before
and it seems kind of obvious now
because you don't really see
like the Komodo dragon
knocking about
with a big chopper
hanging out, do you?
No.
It would be terribly...
It would probably have
a spur on it or something.
Yeah, it'd be poison.
It'd be colourful.
The Komodo dragon, I think,
has got very slow-acting venom.
Right.
Which took ages for...
50 years.
For experts...
No, I think it is
very slow-acting.
I think it took ages
for experts to understand
why they would bite people
and not follow up on it
or whatever.
Right.
And it's because, like,
it takes a while,
but all of a sudden
you kind of...
So what do they do?
Bite and then hide?
Just don't do the biting.
Just do the hiding.
Get a book out.
Just go.
Come back to me.
Give them the big ones now,
aren't you?
Come back to me in an hour,
mate.
Got me in a net now,
have you,
you prick?
If you can.
Armadillo,
this is from the first four words
of the Armadillo Wikipedia page.
Armadillos mean
little armoured ones in Spanish.
That makes sense.
Isn't that bloody adorable?
It's great.
So they're armoured lizard-looking mammals, basically.
And do you know what defines a mammal, Pete?
No.
I believe that it's they give birth to live young.
Nice.
Not eggy ones.
No eggs.
Lovely.
Shall we go through the odd-toed ungulates now?
The old tapirs and the...
Is it a camel?
A camel might be.
I don't know.
Someone once said to me that it's all about perspective
because a chicken
is just an egg's way
of making another egg.
I like that.
Yeah.
That's nice.
Yeah.
That subverted
what I thought about
chickens and eggs.
There you go.
Which came first, though.
Which came first, exactly.
Yeah, which came first.
Anyway, Pete,
let's get out of here.
We're done.
Let's get out of here.
I've got a busy day, mate.
You've got your Monopoly
board to play.
You know what?
Those bobbleheads,
I mean, Monopoly less interested in,
but they're bobbleheads.
Oh, you are dictionary definition.
That's a short run.
That's a short run thing.
No one's buying loads of those.
Yeah.
That's not like one of those fucking,
you know,
those big headed things you see
in like shops that used to be video game shops.
No, not Athena.
You know,
shops that used to be video game shops
and then they get these bobbleheads
and I hate them.
I can't remember the fucking name of them now.
But there's like every possible conceivable
kind of meme you've ever seen.
You can get a little figurine of it.
You don't want to know how close I came
for your birthday to getting you
a really expensive vape
so that you felt duty bound to use it.
To kill myself.
I thought to myself, I know it's apparently healthier than smoking,
but it's probably still quite bad for you.
I don't want to be responsible for that.
Yeah, it's one of the worst things you could give me
in the sphere of a 40th birthday present, I suppose.
A load of black tar heroin.
Because you are so guilty about accepting presents and stuff.
I'd have to smoke it up right away, wouldn't I?
And I hope you don't mind me saying,
I don't want to end the episode
on a particularly sound note,
but I do think that you are
in the Venn diagram
of people that quite like
comedy's hat like that.
Yeah,
that's fair.
That is fair.
Because you've got like
20 wrestling figures.
You've been in my garage.
No one's been in your garage,
mate.
No.
And good reason why.
Anyway,
let's go.
Let's go.
It was the side of,
it was a lamb shank.
Right.
That's what you were doing, was it?
We'll be back on Thursday
with more of this nonsense.
