The Luke and Pete Show - Coleslaw Mix for the Soul

Episode Date: September 4, 2025

What does male self care mean to you? Remember, there are no right or wrong answers to this question; to Luke it means going to a football match alone. To Peter it's a dog walk and a wank. Do whatever works for you. Today on The Luke and Pete Show, Peter is dropping extortionate amounts of money in the NCP, Luke is drinking shandies and doesn't care who judges him (he definitely does), and we explore further why a man has bought the Commodore brand. Oh, and we may have to prise open the Battery Daddy again...Email us at [e-mail] or you can get in touch on X, Threads or Instagram if character-restricted messaging takes your fancy.Please fill out Stak's listener survey!

Thank you for your patience. Your call is important. Can't take being on hold anymore. Fizz is 100% online, so you can make the switch in minutes. Mobile plans start at $15 a month. Certain conditions apply. Details at Fizz.C. A.

Moor and it is a Thursday 20th of August. No, it's not. You knobbed. Later than that, little than that, isn't it? It's not 28th of August. You're an absolute knobbed, Donaldson. The week after that, in it, it's the week

after that, it is the 4th, 4th of August. No, September, we'll get there. We'll get there. It's a good start in it. It's a good start. Why are you the worst? Why are you changing the running order this late with a proper... I'll do it now.

Yeah, you do it now. Why is it my fault? Why have I got to do it? Because you say, I'll do the running order, you set up the room, you didn't even come in the right room. I didn't see, yeah. You're very confused today. I'm enjoying it. I'm pretty tired. Is it because you've been getting up like the rock at 4M?

Fuck you now. Why are people doing this? Why are people doing this? I get so surprised by the trends now. That's how I know I'm old. Is it still a trend, though? I can never predict the trends as they come along, though. For some reason, the trend or there was a trend, that.

People get up at four. Yeah. Why are you doing that? But you just get, you are, I could get up at five, and I'd be awake, and I'd be peppy and all that stuff. But it only takes a couple of hours, and you are absolutely on your back with tiredness. And it doesn't matter how many, it just means you just drink more coffee, putting more stress on your art, doesn't it? I go on field these days, and I can wake up and in about 10 minutes and go, nope. No, it's not happening.

It's not happening. And sometimes that sweet spot, well, the opposite of a sweet spot, a rotten spot. A rotten spot. A rotten spot. That rotten spot where you feel you wake up too early, or you end up too late or whatever. And you go, no, but you've got to go to work. Yeah. You've got to do it.

Yeah. Is there, I think if you've not had enough sleep, but you've taken alcohol the night before, better. Because you feel like crap. For a bit. Well, for our job, giddiness, excitability. And also, you know, feeling smooth about things. Is this your way of saying that you've been pissed for 20 years? I've been pissed for 20 years, yeah.

I've got a free can of beer and moretti with me, Hello Fresh. I'll keep on iron that up in the fridge. That's not something I used to do. We sacked it off, mate. He sacked it off, right? Yeah. It was the vegetables going off on Tuesday. Like, order on.

It gets there on Sunday. All the veggies seems to be on the way in about sort of Tuesday, Wednesday. Well, I know for a fact you're not putting it in the fridge. No, I'm not putting the veg in the fridge. Exactly. Idiot. No, no, no. Some of the veg I'm putting in the fridge,

like the stuff that absolutely dies immediately, the rocket salad and stuff, the coleslaw mix, that's going in the fridge. That's going to the bin. That's going to be. Never introducing coleslore mix into any recipe. I'm just not doing it.

Do you know what? There's two reasons. One, I don't really like. Shredded cabbage. Cabbage that isn't pickled. And two, that is a cynical and belated. attempt by the people that hello fresh to bulk out a dinner at very very cheap prices for them I'm not having it because I see it and I go one man sees one man may see a coleslaw mix a humble

coleslaw mix yeah another man like me who's woke the original version of woke knows that's a bulk out red pill that is that is reducing your overheads and bulking out I'm not getting cheaper dinners that you're balking out with coleslaw that that savings not being passed on to the customer. No, and I would say that they've definitely got some shares in BASA farms. Oh, yeah. Isn't BASA the most, the more responsible way of cod? Doing cod.

Is it right, I see. I think so. Yeah, sustainable for the bottom line. Certain people are under pressure at certain times of the year to not be over farming cod, I believe. I see, right. So you get your basa, which I think is from New Zealand, so it's not very sustainable. I'm pretty sure it's New Zealand based, yeah.

Oh, how did they lure a load of Basser over to our shores? I believe they catched him in New Zealand, Peter. Oh, right. Well, that's not a fish. That's a great example of how your mind works, though. We're going to get some fish from New Zealand, okay? Right, your first thought is you're going to bring him here alive. You're going to attempt to go 15,000 miles around the Cape of Africa, the Horn of Africa.

I think, Luke, that you, to the channel. To the channel. Mere fallen foul of the Luke Moore paradox. I'm making it up as I go along. I'm happy to say that. Intelligent man. Sometimes as hubris gets custom. times every episode could

could there not be sustainable basso farming in on these aisles or close at these aisles I can see him type but he's upset I'm typing away I want to find out do you know what I've done I've typed in basa location and you know what it's done for me Google

it's fucking done me dirty it's done NASA location I think you mean NASA location it's in Washington DC I love it when you type something getting to fucking Google these days and it's like and the AI goes and you're what was I trying to find

I think I was trying to find some it was probably some wrestling me live show this weekend come and see it get your tickets on the Twitter but we are I'm trying to find a connection between two acts and people and Google

just went I think you are saying this is a misspelling of something else and Google business accuses you of misspelling something and just making something up like say your name Stephen Gout right and you're trying to find the wrestler Stephen Gow

and it doesn't know who that is so it'll go I think you are misspelling the word shout a wrestling shout is something you would shout at the wrestling it's really fucking art shit

patronizing as well just talking for the sake of talking and you know destroying rainforests after rainforest that's arrogant that's arrogant it is arrogant it is arrogant I think you've actually got that wrong

piss off I don't pay you I don't pay Google two terabytes for 70 quid a year for all that nonsense. My, Ben, who says that bit about how Google's racist because once he tries to type in haters with a Z and it said, did you mean haters?

But yeah, I find the whole thing back. Look, I think there comes a time of people's life and if you listen to this, whether you're old or young, if you're old, you would have experienced it already. If you're young, it's going to come for you as well. Trust me. Well, the world just leaves you behind. Yeah, it does.

AI and chat, GPT, and that kind of stuff has left me behind. I don't know how to use it. People say to me things like, well, the thing with you at GPT is that it's all about the prompts.

It's just at all, right? It's just make sure your prompts are really good and you'll get a real benefit out of it. And I'm sitting there thinking, I don't even know what a prompt is. I don't know what you mean.

Well, there's people, I think it's just a chance for people to pretend. I think there's always a chance, I think it's just a chance of people having to go at pretending that it's a job knowing what a prompt is. Knowing what prompts you need out of, of it, I suppose, to, you know, I've tried a few times and to do something useful for, from

AI, but mainly because most of it is sort of web-based. It can't really break out. A lot of the models can't break out of the web-based thing. So if I ask, say I've got a process that I need to do on an Excel spreadsheet and I need to do something and dump out a file, it can't really do that. Like, it's, it's quite complicated to do that. So you may as well just program it yourself. Do you know what I mean? It's that, it's that silly. The task is quite simple. Well, okay, well, it's not great. The example I was given was like, oh, well, next to me going on a holiday, tell chat GPT the location and ask it to put like an itinerary for your holiday together.

Yeah, okay. Nice. I'm like, that sounds fucking terrible. Why? I don't want some fucking robot telling me. It's got no idea, A, what mood I'm going to be in that day. B, what I like. C.

But nobody is. You don't know. You don't know, so they're not going to know. Exactly, so what are they going to know? It's all based on algorithmic recommendations from real humans because they've stolen all of the weight of human history and thought. I don't think real humans' recommendations are any good. All right, well, it sounds like you're never going to use that prompt then. What do you do every morning?

I don't know. How to style my moustache? Out of my curly hair. I don't know. How to get the most value out of a... I don't know. What's the most fuel economic... You're driving.

to an airport layer. I don't mind revealing. I am actually. Revealing revealing information about your life. You're driving to an airport. What is the most fuel-efficient journey or route or tips to remain fuel-efficient? I don't care. I'm going to pump it into Google Maps and I'm going to follow what it says. I'm on the

side of the eye. I wasn't on the side of it. I'm radicalised you. And also I saw a video of that somebody had made of little fruits eating in tiny versions of themselves. And I sent it to you. That was good. I enjoyed that. So I don't mind. One thing I always says, I don't mind the frivolity of it.

Yeah. I don't want to pissing about, yeah. I just don't think that, I just don't see how beyond the kind of very obvious practical uses. Yeah. You know, using incredible amounts of data that it can process much quicker than the human mind can to look at diagnoses and stuff like that. I get all that. I get that. But what's happening is people are desperate to make it something it isn't.

And it's never going to be. Do you know what reminds me of? Gordon Ramsey goes into a restaurant and Ramsey's kitchen nightmares, right? Stay with me on this. Yeah. And he sometimes at some point sits down with the chef and he says,

this is never going to be a top-end restaurant. And that's fine. Stop trying to make it something's never going to be. It's going to be a bistro. I've said that about this company to you many times. You're not brilliant, but you're an all-right chef. We can do a really good fish and chips,

a really good steak and kidney pie, a really good fucking whatever, yeah right yeah that's fine you can build a really successful business doing that i think we chat gpt and i don't even know what you call it whatever you call it these days right people are just so desperate for it to be brilliant their vested interest isn't it being brilliant and their whole careers are based around it that they're not even considering that it might be a waste of fucking time and by its very definition it is not artificial intelligence it is just computers large language models stuff

out so there's nothing new here there's nothing strange if I say large language model does it make it something like I'm talking about yeah kind of kind of I'll do that yeah all right fine I'll probably do that yeah how's your week been how's your day been

what we've been up to it's been all right I'm solo parenting at the moment so a lot of stuff going on just admin in it just admin yeah one thing that really fucks you when you solo parenting is a bit it raining outside and you can't do any laundry Oh, could you not get like a little combo washer dryer?

I've got a Tommy B mate. Oh, right, okay. Well, can you not use that? I just don't trust it for anything other than underwear. That's an interesting. That's an interesting situation. So why don't you trust it for anything other than underwear? I guess you have quite a lot of like outdoorsy sport courts and stuff.

They're probably not suitable for that sort of thing. You can't put them in the tumble dry. Can't put them in the tumble drive. No, but I just feel like it's not going to, it's going to shrink my t-shirts and my jeans and stuff like that. Right. It's not going to do any of that. No, I know, but it's not rational. It's just, it's a phobia.

Are you going to end up with tin foil, you read, in some, like, boffy in the middle of nowhere? At this point, it sounds right. Yeah, to be fair. That sounds fine. What did I do the other day? Oh, I tell you what I did the other day, which is fucking amazing, right? I went to Fratton Park to watch my team Portsman's play. Yeah.

But I went on my own. Where was the child? It's all our parenting. I haven't seen him. I'm off to the match, kiddo. I said it's a ball boy job or nothing. Yeah, so you went by yourself. I saw you took a picture of that John Franklin where of his name is the dick.

John Westwood. John Westwood. But it was great because I drove down my own, peace and quiet, watched the game, actually watched the game, read the program at half time, drove home my own. Beer at a half time. It was just an amazing, amazing, amazing. act of self-care.

Yeah. Oh, look, going for a long drive by yourself. I drove up to Stack Towers in Bank Holiday Monday because I missed the train slightly, so I was like, I'm just going to bomb it to London. And I'll tell you what, there's nothing better than driving it to work. It takes about an hour and a half. Where are you parking, though, up in Fitzrovia?

There's a little NCP that will not release your car at the end. How much does it charge you for? for that privilege? I'd take 30 quince. It's quite punchy. For how long? Six hours? Six hours, five hours.

You've got more money and cents dancing. I haven't. In any of those things. But I've got such a small sense. I've got no money. This must be a mistake. Thank you. Yeah.

The, the, I was picking up, we got this big telly and stack and Eamie, the person looks after us. The robot that looks after us. Yeah. As that cartoon once said. the person looks after us

just basically it just stops us from killing ourselves, starving setting fire to things just the best and there was a big telly that we had in our old offers that won't fit in the new one

and you want like a moth to a flame when it comes to a big telly well I'm just I'm just like I mean that's just the difficult you have with getting rid of Electronica is a marvel to behold yeah well there's there was

I put one of the smaller tellies in there because I'm just putting stuff in the cabin because I'll use it at some point but I don't think the big telly is going to go back because it's fucking huge and I had to get my neighbor to pick it up in the end thanks for Toshiba Dave though

thanks to Toshi Badev and and so I try to get it in the car me and me and some of our colleagues tried to get in the car would not be in the car so I got one of the smaller tellies put in the back of my back of my car

drove that home got home and it was smashed what an idiot So now I'm just a trash man taking smashed cello. It was a hundred pound cello television that we used in the studios. Oh, not the cello. You broke the cello. I brought one of the UK's only television manufacturers.

I think it is the only UK. I think it is the only, yeah. I mean, let's face it, it'll be Samsung panels inside. My dad did 15 years at Ferguson, so I have a bit respect. He's a Ferguson man. I'm sure. But that's the thing. People buy these company names and just sort of like,

release their own products and stuff. I think that's what happened with Toshiba. I think it's rebadged, you fool. It's been rebadgy, fool. Amiga has just been bought out by a man with a beautiful boy. He's been bought about a YouTuber, the Amiga brand. Oh, I saw that, yeah. The Commodore brand, sorry, not the Amiga brand, the Commodore brand.

There is some... What was it actually, was it got to the point where it was like worthless, did it? Pretty much. I think it's still like in the millions, but it's kind of like, obviously with the history of Commodore and the Commodore 64 and the Pet and the... It was a pet, yeah, a couple of pet, and the amigraous stuff. Obviously, it's a big, it's a big prestige, not prestige, not in 2017. Legacy brand, right?

A legacy brand, you would call it, I suppose. And this, there's a YouTube, he's like a retro enthusiast. And he lives in America, I think, and he's got a beautiful wife and a lovely dog. And he's got, and he's a good-looking fellow. For the retro enthusiast world, he's fucking, he's fucking knockout, mate. He's fucking knockout beautiful, and his partner is too. And he's got this beautiful, rich. voice who sort of talks like this

a British guy and he's bought Commodore and he's basically saying that it's going to be different this time and Commodore's not going to break your heart and it's going to be great and all the products are going to release some of the Commodore brand are going to be absolutely brilliant blah blah blah he will

fuck it because everyone in the position who loves a product fucks it if you love the product if you love the name if you grew up with it let it go just enjoy it for what it was walk away don't put all of your own money into it don't you know crowd fund don't go

back to Gordon again aren't we stop trying to turn it into something it's never going to be stop trying to stop trying to turn it into something it's never going to be so yeah Commodore it's back but he'll break your heart you'll be purchasing a product or two I'll take it no doubt if you if you just

I never had a Commodore 64 or a whatever 18 or whatever I was a BBSC micro I was a I was an Amstrad man so I don't know who well you've always been very very loyal to law sugar I've always been very loyal to to Lodge Sugar.

I think he's incredibly intelligent for thinking, man, Brexiteer. Oh, what a character. By the way, that's your kind of form of self-care, isn't it? Like, buying, like, electronic stuff. Oh, just buying stuff. Like, it'll fill a hole in the art. When I said to you, I went to Frat and Park, and it felt like an incredible act of self-care.

Because it gave me genuine joy. Yes. Like, I was thinking that a lot of the advice around, quote, unquote, self-care for men is like always dished out by like not necessarily problematic but just twats yeah you know and i thought to myself i wonder what pete would advise as a proper bit of like male self-care for men of our age what would you say and i don't think you can feel that gap in your soul just by buying things so don't just say that no it's dog walking a wank in it really dog walking a wank Dog walking a wank.

There we go. In that order? Not during. Don't get confused. Don't go for a walk in a dog wank. No. Yeah, I think it is just, I think it is just something like that. I think with when I got to watch Newcastle, obviously the tickets, because I don't have a season ticket, buying, I always have to buy singles at an astronomical fee.

Mine was only 30, by the way. Yeah, I'm decent for the championship here. Yeah. and that money will be going to some of the players you've signed over the past few weeks so I'm usually sort of sat in a crowd that is not my crowd so to speak and I'm usually going by myself and it is just nice to sort of just amble up on you in your own time just you know walk up the hill at St. James's Park or wherever you might be in the in the way end somewhere or the home end at another ground and just you know it is just a bit

You don't talk to anyone. So you're always just behind any lines, are you? Yeah, I have a, have a, have a, have a, have a, have a, have a, have a, or a, or as I experienced at the O2, um, last weekend, I didn't eat anything all day. And then, same with Mark Haynes, and we went to watch them wrestling. We both bought a big jar of sour sweets. And that's all we did not all day. God. You don't help yourself?

No, no, it's not, it's not great. Do you think, because I wonder whether, and this is not going to be a kind of men's rights activist point, but I think it's an interesting discussion point. Like, do you think that there's a part of society which is infantilizes men and reduces their interests to things that are unnecessary? What I mean is, like, it's almost like seen in some courses, isn't it, that like a man going to the football on a Saturday, for example, is frivolous. and what he should be doing is looking after his kids or spreading time with his wife or whatever. Right.

And I think it's easy to paint that picture, isn't it, that the men are just inherently selfish? And I get that some men are. But I do think that part of the problem with, like, the crisis in like male depression and stuff like that is I wonder if there's enough room for them to do stuff. Well, but you don't think the whole, you know,

history of the patriarchy has been that we got to work Can we have that time where, you know, might be hard work and stuff. Well, the, the, the, the, the, but we don't have that time, do we? Because the patriarchy is a, so if you're against the patriarchy, which I personally am, right? I'm probably against it for different reasons and say, feminists would be against it. And I totally understand and accept a feminist position. But my position would be, I'm against, I don't know, I'm against the patriarchy because it doesn't work for 95% of men. Right.

Right. And I am a man, right? So I have experience of that. can't, I don't know what's like to be a woman, right? So there's no point me wading in on that level. But my point would just be the patriarchy works for 5% of heteronormative men who can flourish in that system, right? They're normally white, they're normally wealthy, they're normally not neurodiverse and

have no mental health issues. And I think you say that men have that thing, they're going to work another time. Most men are fucking put upon. And a lot of them hate their lives, mate, because they hate their job. and they haven't got enough money and it's hard to live. But that's now though, isn't it? But the model used to be...

No, but I think they did then. I just didn't know about it. Well, you got the pub and then turn up pissed at 10pm and then start the process again. Yeah, and they've taken that from us. And they've taken that from us. And they've taken that from us. No, I think, but even that, though,

I don't feel these days in this current stage in my life that I want to go to the pub and get pissed till 10pm. No, no. But that's what I'm expected of me. I very much am getting to the point where I'm like, Ooh, that first one looks nice But it's everything after that's Do you know what I like?

I like a couple of shandies There you go, I've said it Really? Okay, right, fine, yeah. But doesn't that detract from the the drink that you're drinking? I guess kind of like with, yeah, you know, I guess it would be. I'd front on to tell my friends when I say that.

I don't mind, it's shandy. Well, you had a few weeks off the hooch and then you're back on. I've had four months off the hooch. Four months off the hooch. Now I'm back in a big way on the shandies. One might. What I like about shandy, by the way,

is that, and you might not, other people listen to this may not necessarily have experienced this but I think Say again The bubbles tickle your mustache I love that But you don't get

It doesn't get fizzy and a fizzy lager mate No it's good point All the moustache tickling you need But what I was gonna say was I love going to the pub My local on the way I'm from work on a Friday as you know And if you stand there

Lean at the bar having a beer Lovely If you stand there leaning at the bar I'm having to cry With the what Oh I'm having a cry No right sometimes

having a Diet Coke it doesn't hit the same does it no it doesn't hit the same it's not the same it's not the same so I want to taste of the beer and I want to look like I'm having a beer but I don't want to get yeah it doesn't

it doesn't taste the same it doesn't doesn't it doesn't attack it doesn't attack as much it's just like a lager but sweeter great yeah yeah yeah it is I mean almost uncompromisingly sweet as well I had a beer I was where we'll talk about my

my little time up north on the next show I think but I had a non-fil-tata iknuso beer that I had from a mobile pizza place on a campsite

in the north-east of England and I was like this is fucking brilliant, this is my new beer and then I realised that it was owned by the multinational conglomerate. Hineken. Even better, I'm a Hineyman.

You are? I thought it was like an indie little... I'm not getting involved in the indie lager scene. I don't know what I'm like... I hate all this shit. Yeah, but luckily... Luckily, it's on...

All right, rest in peace. Well, he's not dead, is he? He's probably dead inside after the terrible... Oh, he's definitely dead inside. 100%. Haven't they? Haven't all of the pubs closed? The old punks?

The old brew dogs, haven't they? They are closing, I think. Yeah. What's happened to this fellow, though? because he's gone mad. Was he always mad? I think he probably was always mad. I think he's...

Isn't he inviting people around his house? Yeah, he does all sorts of weird... Is he offering us with that... Social media content. Annoying woman. Yeah, just kind of like that. Every woman you've ever met at a production company is her. Just that woman.

Yeah, it's a bit of that, isn't it? I think she's also like... So I'll say something unfair about her if I may. Okay. This is not my opinion. I'm just passing this on. I don't really know her. But I've got a friend who's really

a really good friend of mine and he's a really, really good friend of mine, and he's a very self-away. He's a bit like Bertie Worcester. And he works, he's actually now in Singapore on some, you know, people who work on like, I'm on the Singapore desk. They just float around.

It's like, amazing. What a life? Makes about two million a year, right? Yeah. Old man was a kind of a diplomat or something. Right. But he's a really, really good friend. He's a lovely guy.

like he's a really really good guy he's been a friend of mine for a long old time and um he's one of these people who's a little bit divorced from popular culture right and um someone talked about um james watt and his wife he she she's called georgia tofalo she's a right like a reality star thing i think she i'm sure she's perfectly pleasant but she's like a bit of a kind of um you know kind of new money tory right and um i was in a conversation with him on WhatsApp and with a couple other people who were talking about them, and he obviously went away into his own research because he had no idea what they were talking about and looked her up. And he replied with his opinion on it by saying, this is absolutely ghastly. This woman is Nouveau-Riche and ghastly.

And I thought to myself, you know that guy who does help I texted my boss, that weird etiquette guy, right? Yeah, the one who looks like a baby. If he wasn't totally weird and a complete bore He would be really good Because my mate's like that But he's funny and he's self-aware And he's very, very knowingly snobby And I quite liked it

But that guy comes up with that With shite sometimes He's making stuff up now He just makes it up, didn't he? Yeah, he started out with It's like the angel boys They're those posh two lads who are on Yeah, we know the angel boys mate

Yeah, angel boys A big fan of the angel boys But they've kind of like They've kind of, they're now if it is possible to be a pastiche of themselves. They, whenever they're anywhere, they go, I'm, darling, I'm having a cup of tea that is £3,000. It's like everything's trying too hard.

I bought a steak bake that was £50 if it wasn't. None of that was, none of that is true. You're being very silly. The guy, that guy who started out doing the etiquette stuff, it was vaguely interesting because he was like, historically it was quite good. And any, and any, and any, because it's quite interesting to see

where these kind of traditions come from, right? Yeah. But then he starts, I mean, he went off to fucking, he completely jumped the shark. I saw two videos of been recently where he was explaining in a way that was confusing himself about why a coffee pot

is a different shape to a teapot. And the other one, he was genuinely, genuinely suggesting that the only correct way to eat garden peas is by one at a time on a foot end of a fork. That's mental. You're making shit up.

No one does that. Every dinner would be three hours long. Have you seen the guy We'll go out and aberrate We'll do a quick A quick dors of batteries A quick charge up of batteries After the break

But have you seen that guy Who's got a fish tank About like Yeah big And he's And he's got a A Jesus Christ

Toothick And he's Yeah Dipping it in the oil And licking it Oh yeah I've seen him Divers

Seed oil Yeah Seed up And he's just Finishes the whole thing I don't know I mean What's the point

in doing anything If you're not going to do it properly you're burping like you've done it do it seed oil I couldn't remember the word for toothpick can I just add before we move on the real quirk crime of broodog James what is he has the namesake

he's the namesake of one of the most important and Scottish inventors of the Industrial Revolution James Watt who invented the Watt steam engine and he's denigrating that man's memory could not be further away that man's been dead 200 years and his memory has been absolutely defiled

my mate from Aberdeen will go It's a fucking accent, man. He has got one of those fucking cheery fucking accents. It's a... It's a... It's a weird Aberdeen accent. No, he's from like the West, isn't he?

No, he's from Aberdeen. He's not from Aberdeen. He's not from Aberdeen, mate. It's like Biffie Flores, it's in reverse this. Oh my God, I fucked it. Look it up. Why is Craig? Maybe she's his voice.

Then Craig just finds his voice very grating. But he's awesome. I don't think it's yet. My, my grandma. was from Aberdeen, and her accent was beautiful, very soft. Beautiful. And I don't think it's, I don't think you can blame Aberdeen for this. I also would just say, the original James Watt, Pete,

because you'll be interested in this before we go to the break. The original James Watt, not only invented a Watt steam engine, but developed and conceived of the idea of horsepower. Oh, right, okay, so nobody uses horse before that. No, he invented the concept of horsepower. So give him the credit. Interesting. Give him the credit for crying out loud. Give him the bloody credit.

Great Topper. Great Topper. Is that a type of joke, isn't it? It's just kind of like people going, trying to one-up each other, I think. I find it tedious. The aggressive nature of comedians. All right, hello to David.

Hello, David. Hi, Luke, the Pete. I was doing the once every six-monthly going through my children's toys and repairing batteries and had a dinosaur and a couple of remote-controlled cars and these are the batteries I found inside.

Matoma Matoma Can you spell that for me please M-O-T-O-M-A It's Daraithee the dinosaur Yes It's Denver The Last Dinosaur

It feels like that's Japanese But I don't think it is You know Well Matoma Is a rare battery But It's not a new player We've had three of them

Including Davids And it was first seen in 2018, can you believe that summer of 2018, we first saw it at Potoma. But a very rare selection so well done for that, but not a new player. Thank you, though, David. Well, there you go. Dovid. Dovid? Would you say

David or David? David, David. I'd go over, Dovid. It's probably like a derivation of David, David, David, David, David. Yeah, Motoma, a power company was established in Shenzhen in 1994. Mottoe represents speed, while

Mar comes from Master. Good. Lovely. The next one. Dan found this battery in one of those handheld label makers at the nightclub I work at. What a sentence. Having exhausted all the normal uses for said label maker, my fellow bar manager, a 45-year-old woman,

exhibited superb dad energy by just labelling any old thing. For example, pen pot, hi-fi, and my personal favourite, iPad stand. You did all that when you had a label maker back in the day, I remember. Yeah, pissing about with it. I don't think we really use that label maker. Why did you buy it?

I didn't buy it. I didn't buy a label maker. It's exactly the kind of thing you would buy. I've got near cars to label lake. Yeah, hoping for the new place, says Dan, but expecting to be the 100th person who sent these in. K. Rector, which, I mean, the battery in... Sounds like a male porn star's nickname.

Yeah, a German one. Dan's... It looks kind of squished. I don't know what's been taking place in the battery packet, But, yeah, the battery looks in a sad state of disrepair. Right, I have searched every different formation of K rector and rector K. And just rector. And this is a brand, this is a brand new player.

Nice, okay. New player. Great work. Well done. Give him his dues. You were underwhelming. That's it. Well done.
