The two busy young thrusting executives you have access to have returned from their holidays. On today's show, we address the rumour that Pete went on holiday to a swingers retreat. But before that, we had to hear about a car bootist’s dream purchase.There is also a VERY special treat contained in our email section.

It's the Luke and Pete show, baby! Sweet beans! Sweet beans! It's Thursday, I'm Pete Donaldson, I'm joined by Mr. Luke Moore, and I tell you what, I've just turned off my Wi-Fi connection, I'm on Ethernet. I'm going to treat myself to some full fat fibre broadband. That's how you get the sweetest beans. That's how you get the sweetest beans. It's the main line to the bean mountain.

Don't dilute the beans. Don't dilute the beans. First and foremost, a little bit of a admin point. Don't always admin. I want to say this now because I don't want people to be confused. Right. Because we're such busy, young, thrusting executives. B-Y-T-E.

Bite. We're Bite. We're Bite. Busy, young, thrusting executives. Yeah. And that's the show title. Thank you, Rory. I want people to know that we...

You can tell we've had a holiday. We pre-recorded quite a lot of EPS. Yeah. And so this is the first time we've seen each other for a while. Yeah. Because our schedules... Basically, our wives made us go wives might have gone holiday yeah we had to go yeah we went separately yeah we haven't seen each other for ages so we're picking it back up again now so there may be even more old man repetition than there has been in the past yeah for which we

apologize but at the very least you might find it comforting yes exactly, exactly. I mean, what's happened since we went on holiday? A war. A war. Yeah. War in Europe. Ooh, the budget. Actually, we probably shouldn't call it a war. We should call it a...

An invasion. An invasion. Yes. Of which one half is defending themselves. Yeah. I don't think we should legitimise it by calling it a war.

But anyway, carry on. Correct, yeah. And yeah, a lot of stuff has happened really, I guess. Yeah. Jackass, the new movie, came out. Johnny Knoxville was in here with Jack

he was yeah I saw that lovely yeah lovely lad do you know what Johnny Knoxville so because we make

loads of different types of shows here obviously we do it for the majority in the same studio Jack's Happy Hour is done in the same studio as this

and there's a I'm telling this to the listeners I know you know this yeah so don't look confused thanks mate I'm in you built the listeners. I know you know this. Yeah. Don't look confused. Thanks, mate. I'm in.

You built the studio. I did put the cameras in. But to get into our building, guys, you have to go for a little canteen. Yes. And the girl who works in the canteen, Terry, lovely, mad as a nail, but lovely. And she might have been mentioned on this show in the past.

Is she a Reiki healer? I want to say she's an all-out carper. Oh, she did the best ever... Ayahuasca in the desert. The best ever How Was Your Weekend with want to say she didn't know all that caper. Oh, she did the best ever. Ayahuasca in the desert. The best ever how was your weekend with Terry was when I went in there

to get a coffee or tea in the morning or whatever. How's your weekend, Terry? One Monday morning. And she's very, very cockney. She's like, oh yeah, it's lovely, thanks. Yeah.

How was yours? I said, yeah, it was fine. I said, what did you get up to? She went, I went to go and see a Mexican shaman. I was like, oh, did you? What was that like?

Yeah, good. Yeah, so anyway. But she never gets fazed by the famous people that come in because i think she's just quite used to it yeah and um and all sorts of billionaires you know and she actually for the first time ever she's never done it for anyone else yeah the first time ever she pulled me to one side late last week and said yeah did you have that johnny knoxville in I love him he's gorgeous gorgeous that's not yeah

because he kind of he was like the gorgeous one out of the troupe there was the little guy there was the guy who'll do anything there was the skateboarding guy

just for those who don't know who Jack Hasse is they all have actual names this is Pete Shorthand I can't remember anything one of them was called T-Bag Bam Majera

Steve-O Steve-O Julian Knoxville Preston Lacey was one of them Preston Lacey was the big guy yeah who's the guy

dying the car crash beard Ryan someone yeah so they all had kind of different roles

but he was kind of the sexy one but he would still hurt himself wouldn't he what I like about Knoxville is you're absolutely right he was the most handsome

but he also had no skills so he had to just do the bravest shit like Steve-O was mad but Knoxville had no skills at all so he couldn't skate or anything like that

so he had to just do the I'm going to fight a bear he was kind of the sexy front man I kind of understand why he kind of floated to the top

effect anyway Knoxville's been in he looks very nice he looks great he's aged very, very well. But we missed all that because we've been on holidays separately. Now, I know,

I don't want to come across as tone deaf because I know it's been difficult for a lot of people out there, but we booked holidays ages ago. I was staying with my family. You booked yours a long time ago. I hadn't had a holiday for a while. So I don't think it's unfair for us

to talk about our respective holidays. Well, lots of things happens on the holidays. And to be honest, you can either have what I did at the weekend at the car, you can either have what I did at the weekend at the car boot or you can have what I did at the

weekend at the car boot in St Lucia. That's a long way to go for a car boot. Oh, by the way, my friend Adam, who is one of the guys behind the

offensive, another stack show, Adam Joel, he loves a car boot and he loves wrestling. Yes, please. So he was at a car boot the day before,

no, he was at a car boot yesterday and before, no, he was at a car boot yesterday and he's got about, he basically goes and buys wrestling figures at car boot sales because the people don't know what they've got

and then he sells them. Ah, okay. And one of the interesting stories that came out of his car boot, he was... Did he buy 50 pounds worth and put it in a carrier bag

and a hedge? He's not as eccentric as you, mate. He's more mainstream. He knows the value of them, doesn't he? He's also one of the four seasons in the Frankie Valli musical

touring the country at the moment. Very talented man. What? Yeah. I didn't know that. He's a professional singer. What? Yeah, yeah.

What? Yeah. How does he find time to do a podcast that's that complicated? I know how we find time to do this shit. He also comes across as quite a lazy man and spends a lot of time walking his dogs. I don't know how he does it.

Anyway, so he tells me a great story about a car boot. Sorry to cut in on your holiday chat. We will do your holiday. But the car boot, check this out. He's at a car boot with a friend of his

a few weeks ago. And the friend of his, who I think he works with, she goes and buys a load of boxes of clothes. Someone's moving house or someone's sadly passed away

and they've cleared a house out. And he gets this box of clothes and he starts just taking them off. She gets, sorry, it was a woman, she gets all these clothes out and she starts marking them up and puts them on eBay.

She sells them all for a couple of quid or whatever. And there's this kimono, this Japanese kimono, right? She puts it up on eBay. It's quite a nice one. She puts it up on eBay for like 25 quid or whatever

as a starting price. By that night, it's up to like 300, 400, 500 pounds. Whoa. She's like, what have I got here? Right?

Next day, it's going for 2,000, 3,000. So she starts to go and do a bit of research, takes it off the listing. Anyway, cut a long story short,

it's like a hundred year old authentic, amazing condition Japanese kimono and it's going to go to auction in Paris and the starting price is like 20 grand. Jesus Christ!

You almost think that the... I mean... That baby is sweet beans. That's about the sweetest... I think that's the dream for any car bootist. I think it is. I think that's what they're going for. Yeah, but I think that surely, if you saw that someone at the car boot, right,

you don't have a receipt, you don't have any proof that you actually bought it, I just worry that the car boot list is going to come back and go, Oi, I need a slice of that sweet bean pie from the auction house. Yeah, they would probably be within their rights to request some kind of divvying up of some of the beans. Yeah, because they'd be like, well, I didn't know what I had and I think you've tricked me. I know it's bullshit. I would worry and that's why I'm not successful in life.

That's the thing, isn't it? Because if you go to a house, and some people will probably do this, you go to a house and you go, and they've got like a garage sale or something, they're selling a painting and you have a bit more noise than them

and it doesn't even need to be a multi-million pound lost masterpiece or whatever it could just be worth a few grand and you go I'll give you 200 quid for that is that dishonest you think

is that naughty yeah it is I think it is what should you do don't do anything at any point don't try and win at life ever

if you knew it was worth five grand you would give them 4,800 I would yeah I'm watching a lot of, when we were on holiday, we watched quite a lot of the TV show American Pickers. Have you seen that?

Yeah, maybe like that. Just two lads going through generational bonds. Yeah. And sort of finding, but the thing that gets me is, I think they over-pay for all of the stuff to make themselves look better. Do you know what I mean? They don't bargain much. overpay for all of the stuff to make themselves look better. Do you know what I mean? They don't bargain much.

They go, I'll give you $120 for that. And it's just a piece of shit. Sorry, mate. You went on holiday to a beautiful place with your life partner. Yeah. And I asked you to talk about it

and you spent all your time watching American Pickers. We did spend all our time watching American Pickers. It's a good show. It's one of those ones where I always used to do voiceovers

for on D-Max but I never watched it and now I watched it now on my holiday you thought now this is the time to be watching it

it's quite good but then they'll go into like barns and this guy will be collecting all petrol pumps and petrol signs

you know that Americana kind of 66 bollock so these guys will go through that and I understand that there's a market value for that

but when they're in somebody's fucking loft in a barn grabbing a train a toy train that's like the size of like a little

kind of go-kart that some random bloke in 1890 just made out of an old chicken coop and they go people are gonna love this yeah and i'm like there's no market value for that it's just some dude it's not like

a great example of like a hornby or something like that yeah it's not home it's it's somebody just made it and it looked terrible and it just had little casters on on the wheels and stuff they bought it but you never find out what they sell it for i don't think they said i think that stuff i sort of go well i'm not gonna sell it for. I don't think they sell, I think that stuff is sort of go, well, I'm not going to sell it, but I'll actually

rent some of the other stuff. It's just a show of like hoarding stuff. Yeah, exactly. I think it's absolute bullshit. But even if I was the director of that show,

even I would just put a little graphic at the end saying, they sold this for a load of money. Yes, they don't do it though. They just sort of,

they fuck off with their stuff and we never see that we've ever made any kind of profit. Did you find some time in between watching American Pickers to experience the country you were made any kind of profit. Did you find some time in between watching American Pickers to experience the country

you were visiting? Here and there. Did you drink any rum? I didn't drink a lot of rum. I'm wearing a piton beer t-shirt that I bought at the airport. It also says

so that's the local beer available where you were and that says Mystic Mountain Brew as well. It's a Mystic Mountain Brew. Which is great. One of the great pleasures

of going on holiday is finding what the local lager is. Yeah. Because it's always lager. And it's a mystic mountain brew which is great one of the great pleasures of going on holiday is finding what the local lager is yeah and because it's always lager and it's always the same yeah but it's great because in my mind

I can think oh when you go to Greece it's mythos yeah you know when you go to like Portugal or whatever

it's Sagres or whatever it's called yeah yeah yeah when you go to when you go apparently there it's Piton that's a weird name for it it's yeah

it's the mountains isn't it the two mountains that sit in the middle of the island. Look, St. Lucia, beautiful. We did loads of stuff. I read my three books of the year. And I read three by Richard Lloyd Parry. He wrote the book, The People Who Eat Darkness, you know,

about the British, British Airways staff member. And I think she, she worked in a, like a snack bar. She was like a, like a, like a, she would chat to,

to, to Japanese men. Is Parry the, the, is the Tokyo correspondent for the Times? Yes. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. So she got murdered 20 years ago or whatever or 10 years ago so I read that one, then I read the one about the Tohoku earthquake and then I read one about the fall of Sahara in

Indonesia Psychologically, you are determined to not allow yourself to enjoy this holiday You're reading books about horrible things murder and earthquake and the rest of the time

you're watching telly with the curtains closed the book about the earthquake is just mostly about an entire school that had died in the tsunami but

cannibalism in Borneo and East Timor I thought you couldn't get any more and the trouble in East Timor that book fascinated me couldn't get any more. And the trouble in East Timor. That book fascinated me because democracy is quite difficult

when people are eating each other, isn't it? It's hard to sort of go, guys, come and register to vote. Stop eating each other's hearts for a bit and let's just fucking do some voting. That's your starting point, isn't it? That's probably where you start. Yeah. We're going to need to stop eating each other.

Put that energy to work in democracy. It's quite difficult, isn't it? Boris Johnson comes in. It's very similar to how people fight for Britain. It's not Boris. Not now. Not now. We don't need that now.

So, is it the first time you visited that part of the world? I didn't realise that Cuba was counted as a Caribbean island. Because, obviously, it is. Marcus and you informed me as we came to think. Well, it's in the Caribbean Sea. I think it's technically part of the Caribbean. Yeah, okay. So it turns out I had been to the Caribbean before.

Right, okay. It didn't count as such. But, yeah, it was lovely. It was beautifully warm and beautifully rainy. It would, like, rain for, like, three seconds. Yeah, it does that I was in I was in

mad mad you're not mad it just it just um yeah the rain's warm

so you actually don't give a shit a lot of salt fish a lot of plantain a lot of mystery fruits I've never seen before I'm gonna have to research to find out what I have

a lot of tamarins this taxi driver just gave me a bottle of tamarind juice he'd made it was I was farting for about three days

afterwards to be quite frank what do you reckon that was probably I don't know well just tamarinds probably I just don't eat a lot of tamarinds in my life it's funny because

tamarind is also a monkey and I think people regularly will be thinking hang on a minute he's gone into the bushmeat tread you love them you love monkeys

I do love monkeys but yeah it was it was really good yeah a lot of saltfish. I also speak on behalf of the people who know where you went and when you went away. I need to ask you the question

that I think a lot of people will want to ask. Based on the social media information that was available to us of your trip and the place you went and the name of it, was it a swingers retreat? I mean, you could be... I won't disavow you of that opinion

because it got a bit... We went out on a boat trip and we were in like a nice little complex, nice little hotel-y thing, a little boutique-y hotel, but it was a bit sandals. It was a bit like... What is sandals?

Is sandals the swing at one? No, hedonism, I believe. But do they look the same or something? I think it's just all people just getting their ox off, innit? I'm not against it. I'm not judging it. I'm just asking about information. I'm not against it.

No, it felt a little bit like that, but it wasn't swingery. It was mainly men from Essex just drinking at a swim-up bar, really. But it was a nice place. They didn't let me go to the restaurant in bare feet they made that very clear right said sir

you need to put shoes on I was like well that's embarrassing I want to spend as much time as possible when I'm on holiday not wearing shoes I love not wearing shoes I had to go and get me

big clumpy because I didn't have shoes let me make it very clear because they fell off the side of a boat it was the worst thing ever because no you're littering as i i had two sandals the

normal amount for a two two-legged uh man a bipedal bipedal about bipedal bipedal bipedal um yeah a normal amount for me on a good day uh and and and so i'm basically it was this um boat trip and it was very formal you know go to a waterfall get yourself covered in some fucking mud go for a snorkel like a proper organised trip

proper organised trip from like you know 8 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon don't normally like that kind of thing but they did have beers and they did have punch

and it got to about 3 o'clock 2 hours before the end and it all got a bit fucking messy it all got a bit 18 to 20 it all got a bit Torremolinos it all got a bit fucking messy it all got a bit 18 to 20 it all got a bit

Torremolinos it all got a bit let's play some fucking UB40 did you try to drive the boat I did not try to drive the boat and your saddle fell off the side

because you kept turning around in circles really quickly I was pretty shitted by then to be fair but there was this big guy from

Shenfield who was an accountant and he looked just like Ray Winston it was hilarious he's basically hanging around people who were in the same party

exactly not even that the town that my partner grew up in it's insane so I've got this book and I go to the bar for some beers

and I come back and he goes Pete you won't believe this your shoe nearly flew off the boat I'll protect it you know I've got them I've got them

and I went oh cheers man that's very kind and I was pissed and I'll got him I'll got him and I went oh cheers man that's very kind and I was pissed and I was like but I mean if we're being completely sensible about things it was actually a sandal

that almost fell off and then my sandal fell off the boat so not only I was being pedantic about what footwear I owned and then one of them

just fell off the side of the boat what percentage of you panicked and wanted to dive in after it did it cross your mind I looked back and I thought imagine like a little

little turtle with my sandal around its neck oh that was the best thing about the fucking thing I've been doing a lot of paddle boarding I can't do it

they just allow you to just take them out and they don't tell you not to isn't it a lot harder than it looks yeah it's a lot harder to stand up isn't it I couldn't stand up for one second.

I tried to do it as well, I couldn't do it. I was alright, I was alright. Because you see them up and down the Lyon Sea, up and down the Thames and stuff. But it looks really easy. Yeah, it's not, is it? Because of waves, because of wind. It's quite difficult I think, yeah. I managed, I was alright.

Well, mine's chiefly because of weight. But carry on. That's more ballast to hang out on the board. No, because. I was all right. Well, mine's chiefly because of weight. But carry on. That's more ballast to hang out on the board. No, because my weight's up here. I see. Top heavy, right. But yeah, I'm sort of... You saw a turtle?

So Sarah had seen loads of turtles, or a couple of turtles, sort of bobbing around. And I'd seen a couple of heads popping up and then disappearing and then popping up. And I was going, oh, I just read about that Italian man

who got chomped by a shark. I don't like this is that my shoe is that my shoe come on my homing shoe so I'm on this paddle board and I didn't have my glasses on

oh no because I didn't want to lose them but now I'm on my paddle board and I was like oh my god oh my god it's a turtle he's swimming next to me oh

I sort of kneeled down on the paddle board and I was like hello mate how are you it was a pear it was a fucking pear I was talking to her

for ages Luke it was so embarrassing how small did you expect it to be I thought it was a shrunken little head of a turtle but it was a fucking pear

I've not seen a pear for all week like all two weeks I didn't see a single pear it wasn't pear season where's it come from I know where's it come from

do you know that pear's had no it's just as interesting as a turtle's but yeah so the boat trip got quite 18 to 20s and everyone got

absolutely wankered I don't think it's 18 to 20s mate it's a very sorry it's a very small you're not going to get any customers there

are they you're not getting any fucking money how old are you no but you had a nice time yeah I had a lovely nice time got a bit of sunburn

it was very resorty and so I had to kind of force myself I'm going for a walk I'm going to the bank so I'm just walking up this highway on the side

where people have just thrown out cash machines that they've robbed they've just thrown out just like two or three cash machines. You didn't put your card in one, did you? That would be just like me, wouldn't it?

What were the flights like? Oh, yeah. Here's the one. I bought tickets to Tokyo two years ago. Still not being able to use them, so I had to get a voucher sort of thing. They were good flights. They were punchy. I thought, you know, I'm going to take Sarah out. I'm going to do a businesser sort of thing they were good flights they were punchy

I thought you know I'm going to take Sarah out I'm going to do a business class I'm going to do it all the bells and whistles so I had a voucher which meant I was like right

well I've got a voucher business officers in Tokyo they are not cheap so this will allow me to get you know at least premium economy to a beach resort wow business to Tokyo

is going to be a bomb mate it was a bomb but it was in the previous days I'm not even looking at that section when I'm looking on bomb mate it was a bomb but it was in the previous days I'm not even looking at that section when I'm looking on Brinkville

it was in the previous days though it was in the previous days now flights are super expensive and if you want to go somewhere like

St Lucia oh my god I thought they were cheap because no one's travelling now nah super expensive but I didn't

I've only ever been to cities before and so it's just a business trip is cheaper than a resort those kind of you know those kind of flights to to nice places effectively without cobwebs and and knives

um and we uh and so i was like right so i'll bash that all this fucking i'll pay all i'll i'll put all my amrs and the voucher from two years ago onto business class flights out to st lucia and back right couldn't afford business class flights out out and back could get business class flights out to St. Lucia and back, right? Couldn't afford business class flights out and back. Could get business class on the way out. Okay, fine. We'll do a coach on the way back, right? So business class on the way out, absolutely lovely, as you can imagine, right?

On the way back, didn't have a ticket. Got to the airport, didn't have a ticket. You didn't buy one. I bought one, but something fucking happened. I literally had an app, the British Airways app was saying, your next flight is tomorrow. Go and fucking check in.

I went, check in. Oh, you can't check in. I'll do it at the airport. Do it at the airport. You don't have a ticket to say. I was like, I do, though. I have a ticket, though, don't I?

Why does this always happen to you? She went, can I see, like, can I see your, like, how did you get here? It's like she was, she was, the thing about, the reputation of the caribbean uh nations are quite laid back quite kind of like you don't need that

in an airport you haven't got a ticket there's an hour hour before hour before you fucking fly yeah and it was like literally like i don't we don't have a ticket to get home what did you do then well you're here now so what happened but i had to spend fucking 800 quid each for a bloody another ticket which is I don't think I'll get back well why are you going to get it back why would you get it back because they should have

I booked because I booked tickets before right I can't figure it out Luke and it's such a long time since I booked them yeah I almost can't be arsed

was there any kind of meltdown between you and the partner you have access to no we did we would not have been no I did a hilarious joke because you had to wear a mask. Nobody could really hear you anywhere

and certainly not with my accent. At the end of it all, after literally about an hour and a half of a woman ringing up the executive club thing and then ringing up British Airways London and then ringing all of these numbers on mobile phones and then the mobile phones cutting out,

and then having to run to a landline. And it was just really Keystone Cop stuff. It really was a mess, right? Were you getting stressed? Yes, but nobody would know. It was bubbling under the surface. Did you say to her, listen, I thought I saw a turtle, and it was a fucking pear.

I come at my wit's end. What is this, the Tempkin village of an airport apparently there's not even any wildlife on this island it's all fruit the only thing I've seen is a fucking bird

trying to eat all my salt packets off my breakfast bear bar and so she finally gets the ticket I finally spend a lot of money on fucking

new tickets and at the end I go you know what the mist has cleared we can continue our journey home yeah you're relieved I'm relieved And at the end I go, you know what? The mister's cleared. We can continue our journey home. Yeah.

You're relieved. I'm relieved. My partner's half relieved and half annoyed at me. Yeah. But I try and do a little joke, Luke. Okay. And I went, bearing in mind it's half an hour before, half an hour, 45 minutes before the flight leaves. I said, now, let's speak about my vegan meal.

That's a good joke. Good joke, good joke. But in my mask, all she heard was, can I have a free upgrade? Oh my God. I'm like, she went, you want a free upgrade? I was like, no, that's not what I said. Is there a free upgrade?

But no, there wasn't a free upgrade available or a vegan meal. Was it a night flight? Yeah. Three hours. Three hours sleep. Yeah, I didn't get any when I came back. upgraded but no there wasn't a free upgrade available or a vegan meal was it a night flight yeah three hours three hours sleep yeah that's I didn't get any when I came back

rubbish innit we'll talk about my holiday on Monday because otherwise we're going to be well over time but so in summary American Pickers

lost shoes turtle you thought pair that you thought was a turtle didn't buy a ticket home which I mean I do have sympathy for you.

If I didn't know you, I'd have more sympathy for you. But that is basic stuff. I think basic admin with trips and stuff, that's always my fault anyway. I've never failed anyone on that count. This feels like a really glib question to be asking you.

Did you have a nice time? I did have a nice time. Good. That's the main thing. Let's have a break. When we come back, we'll do some batteries and we've got a very special email coming up as well

with a little treat included. Don't go anywhere. We'll be back just after this. Oh, Graham Linehan crying on the telly. It's the... Look at the picture! I found that weird.

Did you? Yeah. I found it funny. No, I just found it weird that... What I was looking at. But anyway, we ain't got time for that now. Did you? Yeah. I find it funny. No, I just find it weird that... What I was looking at. But anyway, we ain't got time for that now. What am I looking at? We ain't got time for that.

We've got batteries, though. You big guys have been sending those batteries in, posting them through our email holes like you wouldn't believe. We've been doing batteries now for so long that people are probably thinking, what's this about? Can we really still be finding new ones? Well, stay tuned.

You're about to find out. Yeah. Ian has got in touch and he's one of those Ians with an extra eye in there and I for one find that very charming.

Do you like that? I think the people who have the extra eye tend to be more annoying. I think they've been crafted by the dark a little bit. They're constantly

trying to I'm going to be called Ian which you think is a simple name and then I i'm gonna fuck with you when you see it written down hi gents found a chameleon battery in a dive computer haven't come across it before potentially a new player it's chameleon with c-a-m-e-l-i-o-n clever name because you think of the animal a chameleon but it's actually a combination of camel and lion yes um that's as good as it gets for ian i'm afraid because he is the seventh person to send this in.

The first time we received notice of a chameleon battery was actually in January of 2018. Can you believe that? Over four years ago. Sorry, Ian. Thanks for your big effort. Sorry for slagging off your name. You're not a new player.

Chameleon girl, Tony Potter. Morning, guys. Image attached to my entry as a new player in the battery game. Survival Frog Rechargeable Batteries. Is this also the first USB rechargeable battery you've had on the show? It isn't the first USB rechargeable battery, but I do enjoy

looking at them. They're fascinating creatures. Yeah, I love the fact that there's a battery called Survival Frog. So for those who don't know a usb battery you flip what would be seen as the top of the battery over and there's a usb connector in there pete does that does that i know you like them but does that still count for you yeah i think you've however you recharge them as long as they're air sized as long as they fit the iso standard for air i think we're

or whatever whatever general battery is yeah you'd not get get a USB and a AAA, would you? Too small. Too small, yes. Mini USB-C, maybe. Mini USB-C, maybe. Whether we see those in the future. Anyway, Tony, my good news for you is that you are indeed a brand new player. So those naysayers who say you can't really be finding new battery brands after four and a half years, we are, and we've just found one there. Congratulations to you, Tony.

I am a naysayer, though, I'm afraid, because Tony did send in a picture from Amazon. We can't be accepting that. There's no proof that you've got them, Tony. But he has found them. He's discovered them. You've got to have them. You can't just go on Amazon and search for them. You've got to have them in your hands, Tony.

You get that on next day delivery and get back to us on Thursday, all right? Okay, you're pending. You're in battery purgatory. You're in battery purgatory. Until you show us you've been holding them in your hand. It looks like they're only £11, so maybe it depends how much you want it.

Maybe invest in the thing you love. £11 is quite a lot for a battery, isn't it? Rechargeable, aren't it? True, actually, yeah. It's an investment. Agent's got in touch with an AA-sized battery. Do the look, the Pete. I have here a pair of Universal Electronics

alkaline AA batteries found in my Foxtel voice-activated remote. Hello. I myself have never seen this brand, but let's see how many of my fellow listeners have seen them. New player? Three question marks? Yeah, we've had...

Adrian! If I can just get this away. We've had 20. You're the 20th example of Universal Electronics, my friend. And by the way, not that you necessarily care about this, but you spelt it wrong. you're the 20th example of universal electronics my friend and by the way not that you necessarily care about this

but you spelt it wrong in your email so it took me ages to get it up in the search so you're not you're not a new player I'm afraid

you are the 20th person no less to send in universal electronics I'll tell you some other people who've sent them in James Robson sent them in back in 2018 my second cousin Alan Gray sent them in back in 2018. My second cousin,

Alan Gray, sent them in back in 2018. Dean Chu, the astonishingly named Dean Chu, sent them in last year. So I'm afraid not. It's a big effort.

Thanks for getting in touch, but you are not, I'm afraid, a new player. Oh, dear lord. Yeah, so thank you very much for everyone who got in touch this week

for the battery brands. We'll be back next Thursday with more of that. Get them in, though. Hello at LukeandPeteShort.com. Luke, we've got an email here. Yep. And it's not even for the Luke and Pete Show, really. Right.

I don't think. It's from Jenny. Jenny Tresson. And she needs a little bit of Honda jazz advice. Well, hang on. Wait there. Okay. Two seconds. All right. One, hang on. Wait there. Okay. Two seconds.

All right. One, two. He's pulling back the curtain. He's opening the, he shouted the word Vish. Oh! Who's here? Is it Vish? Is Vish here?

It's like a zoo radio format. Time people. Carry on with the email. Before Chris Tarrant gets here. Hello, Vish. Hello. What's Jonathan Ross doing outside? Hello, Luke and Pete.

I remember from a past episode that you mentioned having access to a man who drives a Honda Jazz. Vish. Vish. I think Vish is like Rishi Sunak and he doesn't actually own a Honda Jazz. He borrowed it from a man from Sainsbury's. He likes to be seen filling them up in a forecourt let's get this

sorted right away I am taller than Rishi Sunak you finally found someone you're taller than is Rishi Sunak tiny I don't know

a tiny billionaire he's small oh is he that's adorable that's not even a real kid that's a playmobil car it's great because

by the time this episode comes out people won't even remember the rishi sunak could he fit inside his own little suitcase

we've only got fish for a little bit all right okay fine my boyfriend himself a honda jazz driver is adamant that

whenever jazz drivers pass each other they do a little jazz hands wave in recognition i was quite taken with this and attempted it a few

times to the passenger seat only to be met with confusion and sadness. This leads me to believe my boyfriend might have made up the whole thing, but perhaps you could ask Vish for his insight. Vish, do you do the famous and celebrated

jazz hands for the Honda Jazz driver? Not only is it not a thing, but that's a wonderful wind-up to play on your partner that I might take home with me, actually. Yeah, you should. I think you could possibly start it, or start the fact that it's not a thing, but pretend it is a thing, but that's a wonderful wind-up to play on your partner that I might take home with me, actually. Yeah, you should. I think you could possibly start it, or start the fact that it's not a thing, but pretend it is a thing. Say you heard it in a newsletter, on the

Jazz newsletter. I think the only problem is here, we're all labouring under the, let's be fair, illusion that Vish would ever be brave enough to play a trick on his wife. No, but it's, I mean, I quite like that. I do feel like sometimes there's a bit of kinship when

not quite when you wear clothes because when you wear clothes there's a bit of an embarrassment there isn't there oh if you wear the same clothes yeah yeah yeah but you know

every now and again maybe to yourself you'll be like oh that's my car you know someone else driving a similar car yeah that's a new level

I believe there always there certainly used to be a little community with motorbike riders who would nod at each other. Right. They'd go past each other. So they would just nod.

What, just any motorbike? Yeah, they would. So Yamaha guys would be nodding away to Harley drivers? In late 1990s gospel, motorbike riders were nodding at each other. And I'd love to hear from people who could back me up on that. Right. Well, you know about the ethnic nod, don't you? If I was walking past someone who was South Asian

or specifically Sri Lankan, we'd give each other a look. Do you really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right. Okay, yeah. If it does kick off, we can band together here.

Yeah, right. That's not a nod. I've got nothing. Yeah, yeah. I've got no nods to give. I hope the Publians did the same, didn't they? That's the way we walk. I've got loose heads. to give I hope the pubians did the same didn't they this is the way we walk got loose heads

not enough calcium in the bones no teeth no teeth that would make it more airy in the head because there's no teeth it would

I'm not sure what problem that's solved more air in the head more air in the head would it be fair to say that the normal the stereotypical Honda Jazz driver

you don't want elderly people taking their hands off the wheel at any point do you I'm not that old I'm 36 yeah but other Honda Jazz driver, you don't want elderly people taking their hands off the wheel at any point, do you? I'm not that old. I'm 36. Yeah, but other Honda Jazz drivers are. That's the point.

Are they old? Isn't that the kind of thing? Honda Jazz drivers are... It's a car of the elderly person. Bish. You're driving a Honda Jazz, mate. Come on. You're practically Prince Philip

upside down in a lay bike. Be real. come on. What? You admit that. The only concept I have regarding the Honda Jazz is one of the first times we met, Vish, you said you drove a Honda Jazz. Luke found that hilarious for some reason

and then you expressed the opinion that older people drive Honda Jazz. I don't feel like I need to qualify why I found that hilarious. All I'm saying is, if you're driving on the motorway and you see a guy, someone driving by in a Rolls Royce, it's going to be an old white guy. It's just going to

be an old white guy. It's like a Ferrari. Very rarely, unless you're in Mayfair and you see the super rich, wealthy oligarchs or whatever. Ultimately, if you're driving down a provincial motorway and you see a Ferrari, it's going to be an old white guy. If you see someone driving a Honda Jazz, it's going to be an old white guy if you see someone driving a Honda Jazz it's going to be an old

white person who hasn't done quite as well who hasn't done very well in their career so you are very much an anomalous contributor to the Honda Jazz

environment so that's good because Fish is starting his jazz life early so by the time he gets to an old man he'll have a new Honda Jazz

he'll have a new Honda Jazz will you promise us I know you've got to go will old man, he'll have a new Honda Jazz. Will you promise us, I know you've got to go, will you promise us that you will start the Honda Jazz jazz hands tradition for Jenny? Yes. Yeah, I might as well. I might as well.

I need something to do. Try it out and come back and tell us how you got on. It's automatic as well. So you don't need to pay as much attention. Well, you've got plenty of opportunity then. Yeah. Great stuff.

You've got an automatic Honda Jazz. You're making it even more boring to drive. It's like Top Gear, isn't it? Yeah, it is a little bit, yeah. You're a hamster. Even more boring to drive. He looks like James May now. In the Laguna.

My left... I beat up a homeless man. My left light has stopped working. How do I fix that then, lads? Car drivers. You can just do the... You know you can do the signal with your hands. Just do the...

Pass your hand signal, yeah. Vish, thank you very much for joining us. No, thank you for having me. Seriously, I need to know how to fix a Fiat 500. car drivers you can just do you know you can do the signal with your hands just do the signal yeah Vish thank you very much for joining us no thank you for listening I need to know how to fix a Fiat 500 little individual email dual logic light
