The Luke and Pete Show - Crunchy Foot Syndrome

Episode Date: December 17, 2020

The boys are back with more responsible chat as we discuss flight attendants in nappies, passing wind on public transport, and where to stock up on alcoholic soup. Elsewhere, Luke learns about one drug-dealing entrepreneur’s healthy crystal meth recipe, while Pete reveals his unhealthy chocolate stealing habits. Also on today’s show, some exciting emails take us back to school as we discuss terrible student reports and celebrity teachers in disguise. Enjoy! Have you brought any particularly weird Christmas presents this year? Let us know at [e-mail]! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

and it's the luke and peach show it is a thursday i do hope you're well and christmas is hurtling towards us at the rate of knots and i'm not exactly that comfortable with it luke because i've not done my christmas shopping yet annoying what shopping have you got to do though i've got a shop for my parents yeah i don't really know how to do it. My parents are going over to my sister's. So my sister's, like, do I send it to my sister's? Do I send it to my mum and dad's? It's very confusing, Luke. Very confusing indeed.

Fair enough, yeah. Let's not do too much Christmas stuff, though, because as I've already said on Monday, we've got some Christmas stuff to do next week. I don't want to exhaust it all. Peter, how are you today? Are you well? I'm good, yeah.

I'm all right. I'm fresh as a daisy, light on my feet, and doing some audio boxing with you, my friend. Yeah, nice stuff. Good stuff. And on Monday's episode, Peter, we talked a bit about Chinese flight attendants being told to wear nappies, didn't we?

And we didn't actually follow up on it. I mean, the story itself is quite self-explanatory. I feel quite sorry for the flight attendants, don't you? I mean, what is happening there? Can you play that little bass thing that you played on Monday under this story? I think it'd be really

suitable. Yeah, cool. Yeah, so Chinese flight attendants have been told to wear nappies for COVID protection because it's not safe for them to use the toilets Pete Donaldson it's over to you I was on that flight Luke the smell incredible air hostesses Air Horse Des's farm was big, full of nappy and shit and smell. They say that your nose buds don't work that high,

but I can attest that is incorrect. I can smell my flight attendants poo-poo-poo-poo-poo serving my tomato juice. This, from Wondery, is shitty nappies. Peter,

do you remember that flight about, I don't know, maybe a couple years ago now where someone did a turd so bad that the flight had to turn back? Incredible really, isn't it? That was a story at the time. Do you reckon it reacted with the chemicals or something i just i just reckon the pilot the pilot just went right that is disgusting

we're going you're not fucking going we're not going to the bahamas now because you don't fucking deserve it yeah that's disgusting i i think um i think it's uh there's always a story around about new year that uh chinese people because they always have to drive uh ridiculous distances to get home for chinese new year uh they obviously you know you can't poo in your car so people do that and and also in your theory test that is why you're allowed to poo in your car um you like to spend a penny in a in a in a pringles can I throw out the window at someone else. That's not a penny. A penny's a wee, isn't it? Yeah, a bit of both, isn't it?

I think a poo is a pound, isn't it? I just don't know, Luke. But apparently some Chinese people are forced into wearing nappies because they're on trains or yeah i understand car journeys for like for like um 10 hours 15 hours uh at a time and they just can't get out or can't find a toilet it's uh so what i don't understand about it is that the whole adult nappy phenomenon and i want to be sensitive both culturally and situationally to this i totally understand the principle but what i don't understand about it is that i a kid, a toddler, or a baby has a nappy on, it's because it can't take itself to the toilet.

Now, this is the same situation for slightly different reasons, but the point being here, you know when a baby has shat a nappy because you can fucking smell it. So why are they doing this? Should our poopies smell worse than... Or is it some kind of technologically advanced nappy which doesn't smell? In which case, sign me up. Well, as I said,

the poo in the sky doesn't smell as bad. Because as soon as that flight takes off, I am farting. I am just... I don't know where it is, the pressure or whatever, but I am just constantly letting rip because no one can smell it.

That annoys me, Donson. Because you and I have had but I am just constantly letting rip because no one can smell it. See, that annoys me, Donaldson, because you and I have had plenty of flights together where you've had a go at me for taking my shoes off, for one. Yeah. And two, you've busted a blister over a nun and now you're farting all over the place. I think this is outrageous by you. It wasn't a nun.

It was a Hasidic Jew. Oh, sorry. Yeah, okay. I got confused. You busted a blister over an Hasidic Jew. Can you be a cloth in the Jewish faith? Can you be a member of the cloth if you are a rabbi? I think that's just a general term, isn't it?

I think it just means, yeah. Is there a female clergy? Who? At Temple. Why are you asking me this? I don't know. My only knowledge of Jewish culture is from watching Larry David and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

That's all I know. A ramble show in a synagogue. Yeah, exactly. I watched a brilliant episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm maybe two or three days ago where he wants to get... Have you seen Curb Your Enthusiasm? Yes, yes.

The whole storyline where he's trying to get out of giving Richard Lewis a kidney have you seen the opiate enthusiasm yes so the whole storyline where he's trying to get out of giving Richard Lewis a kidney and the head of the kidney consortium

or whatever it is has got the power to bump Richard Lewis up the list but Larry and Larry David wants to convince him to do so

but in order to get him to do so he has to go skiing and pretend he's an orthodox Jew and that Susie, Jeff's wife, is also his wife. And it is absolutely amazing.

That's the only knowledge I have of Jewish culture. That's it. Right, okay. So I don't know anyone really. So I've got Hollywood. And the only other time I've experienced any kind of Orthodox Judaism is when I regularly see Orthodox Jewish people on the tube, don't you? That's it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the only when I see, you regularly see Orthodox Jewish people on the tube, don't you?

That's it. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the only thing I see. You're asking me, you're asking the wrong guys what I'm trying to say. So either way, I'm pretty sure. Next time, go up and say, excuse me, I know we're not supposed to be talking to you

because of COVID, but do you have female clergy? I mean, we should at least know that much, I think. Or is it in the Torah to bust a blister over someone else? Probably not. There's probably some very thoughtful story slash parable in the Torah that says, may you receive blister juice gladly from a man on a flight. From a man who actually... Who has burned himself on the pot noodle.

To me, that makes it worse. If you busted a blister over me and said, I'm really sorry, I didn't mean that, it was a total accident, I would forgive you because it was an accident and you didn't mean it. But if I found out for one second that it was because you were making a pot noodle, I'd be fucking pissed off. Oh, that was a painful couple of months in my life. I remember.

It was very, very unwelcome. And very unedifying for the rest of us. It was indeed. Can I just bring this story to your attention? There's a man in Colorado, as reported by foxnews.com. So, you know, take that with a pinch of salt if you want. But it's been reported. A Colorado man.

Yeah, perhaps. A Colorado man called Craig William Rogers is facing charges connecting to a meth lab he's accused of operating out of his garage. Now, here's where it gets interesting. He told police he was, quote, unquote, making a healthy meth substance containing acai berries or acai berries.

I don't know how you pronounce it. Acai berries. He's basically making meth out of berries. And I don't know if, one, that's possible, probably not, and two, whether I should kind of be interested in the development of that because if you can make it from berries, I think we should know. the development of that because if you can make it from berries i think we should know yeah yeah like kind of artisanal small stock akai berry uh meth um i mean is i mean i'm fairly certain that would just make the flavor better i don't know oh i like um jesse pinkman's chili pea

jesse pinkman puts chili powder in his oh yeah and and the. And the deputy chief of the area said, no amount of meth is safe, whether it has berries in it or not. It's a highly addictive, life-destroying drug. And so maybe, yeah, you're right, he's probably just flavouring it, mixing it up a little bit, like when they bring out all those Bailey's flavours at Christmas. Exactly, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Smoke your meth out of an old chocolate shoe.

Do you remember those chocolate ornaments you used to get on the tree? Did you used to have those when you were a kid? Yeah, like Santa ones and stuff. I used to eat them. I used to nick them. Yeah, I mean, that's what they're for, isn't it? Actually, I've got a tree and I haven't got any of those kind of things. I shouldn't really get involved, really,

because that would really remind me of being a child and constantly just eating chocolate for a month. Yeah. You were the, you're the only kid who probably liked chocolate more than I did. I'd say I saw, I saw, I saw an Instagram post of your lady partner,

your lovely lady partner, uh, where she said, and it, all it said was it was a closed box of chocolates, quite big, and it said, I received these as a gift yesterday, and the next post she opened them up and there was one chocolate left. I was told that she does not like dark chocolate,

and it was a box of black magic, dark chocolate. You're doing a valuable public service. I was doing a fabulous box of black magic, dark chocolate. You did a valuable public service. I was doing a fabulous bit of public service. I was helping out the homestead, keeping things clear, giving the capacity for more chocolates to be bought. Because you can't buy a new box of chocolates if there's only a box of chocolates there. So I was just munching away at them.

I was absolutely distraught. The issue with said partner is that she's very slow to eat sweets in my opinion and if the sweets are in front of me in the words of uh the singer uh songwriter whose name i've just forgotten that that that's see you getting eaten all right if you leave chocolates around oh yeah that's see you getting eaten yeah what is her name i forgot her name as well it's got there's an A in there. Azalea Banks. Azalea Banks. Azalea Banks,

yeah, she upsets people, doesn't she? She does. Peter. Actually, linked to the Colorado story about the meth,

and you have to say, Craig William Rogers, the guy who's facing charges regarding this crime, he has got, not only that classic drawn look of a meth addict, but he has got the world's greatest sort of chin.

Yeah, it's amazing. His jawline, his chin. Yeah, he cut glass on that. He probably does. It's incredible. He probably does. It's probably how he makes his bongs and his pipes. Peter, the Fox News website is amazing because it's like the day-to-day.

The suggested stories are so good. There's one here. Oh, it's great, yeah. Arkansas police officer offers to test meth for coronavirus. Quote, better safe than sorry. Better safe than sorry. I think it's a little kind of joke because if you turn up with meth, they will put you in the slammer.

Yeah, in choking. It's almost as if they're losing the war on drugs, isn't it? Someone's losing it. Sounds like they might well be. Have you got another story there Because I've got another one I want to bring to the table Courtesy of our lovely producer Nat as well Yes, do you want to take the Russian one

And I'll take the Japan one Alright then, Sora News 24 If you're in any way Excited by Japanese nonsense news Rocket News or Sora News 24 As they call it It's well worth a read Because there's just so much nonsense

happening every single day, every single hour of the month of the year of just, oh, Jiminy Cricket. It's just an absolutely wild amount of crazy stuff. Alcoholic soup in a cup now on sale to keep Japan warm and buzzed this winter. An extra relaxing beverage for the coolest time of the year is now available. I presume it comes in vending machines because it's a nice little kind of cup kind of situation.

So yeah, they're basically nihonshu, which is a kind of Japanese wine, literally Japanese wine, which is sake, obviously. Nihonshu no dashiwari is basically just sake mixed with traditional Japanese soup stock. So like a dashi sort of broth. You get them in like uh you get them you get this kind of broth stuff and they cook kind of like uh root vegetables and stuff in it and make this kind of like very very thin broth but uh yeah yeah it's basically sake and uh and that stuff it looks disgusting it sounds

disgusting it smells disgusting but it will get you pissed do you own are you can you order it for delivery you could certainly get some i don't know i don't i mean you could just make your own nihonshu uh sorry get your own nihonshu get your own sake and mix it with dashiwari but uh yeah it's so weird i mean is that is that a regular that's not a regular thing is that i mean because to me i saw it and i was like that looks interesting but it also doesn't feel to me like it could be a new thing surely that's not a new no it's no a regular thing. I mean, cause to me, I saw it and I was like, that looks interesting, but it also doesn't feel to me like it could be a new thing. Surely that's not a new thing. So in, in seven 11s in Japan,

you get these kinds of like, um, big kind of hot immersion heater things that it's just open. And, uh, to get, and they basically cook this root vegetables or like little bits of like, um,

like soy kind of tofu sort of stuff. Um, and you get a pot, sort of like a little bit smaller than like a KFC bucket, and you fill it with as much soup as you want and as many little items and stuff. So you have little sausages and things, and they'll sit in the broth. And I have heard of people mixing Nihonshu with this soup,

and I'm sure it tastes all right, but it doesn't sound particularly... It doesn't sound good to me. It doesn't sound that great to me. Don't have it for breakfast. My Russian nose story, as I think you referred to it, is that a man had a coin removed from his nose after it was stuck there for 53 years oh dear he apparently when he was six he wedged um i believe it's the russian equivalent of a penny into his right nostril that was then

too scared to tell his mother about it because she was so strict and he later just forgot about it he said uh i'm not sure i don't really know if that's something you would forget about but i guess what that means is he probably just got used to it or whatever and apparently he lived um 50 years completely unimpeded uh by the by not being able to breathe through his right nostril at all uh and so he went eventually went to the hospital got a scan uh found it doctor whipped it out lovely old job is the kind worth anything no i don't think it's worth anything at all now it was apparently worth a penny at the time but that's like you know it's a long time ago now to me like i find the whole thing of people who are completely phobic of going

to any kind of authority or doctor or dentist or whatever quite interesting because obviously it could be quite debilitating i hate going to the dentist but i will go if i have to if i wake up with a stinking toothache i'm obviously going to go to the dentist but yeah some people some people find it really difficult to go to the doctor for example don't they they'd rather just try and sort themselves out i remember watching a tv show where i mean it's one of these quite exploitative things i don't make a habit of watching very often but there's a woman who was so scared of going to the dentist that she like fashioned her own kind of solution to her tooth falling out by just continually gluing it back in with super glue it works for you it can't be good for you that you shouldn't be putting super glue in your mouth every day that's not a good thing but but the

point is pete i'm not trying i'm not trying i'm not trying to demean her or anything what i'm saying is weirdly that is more palatable to her than actually just going to the dentist must be a control thing control thing or just kind of like there's never there's never a good time to like you know get things squared away i always argue there's never a good time to sort of oh i've got to do this but you, you know, I've had a chip in my tooth for years. I went to the dentist about a year ago, I think, in Soho and paid a ridiculous amount of money for them to basically look at the thing. And she also did a full cleaning as well, a very painful cleaning because my gums are very recede-y, so to speak.

So I attack them with Custor, with the old toothbrush. She basically said, right, you paid 80 quid. We'll need another 200. And we'll glue that little bit of chipped tooth or basically fill it in. And I've just caught me arse to do it. But that's not debilitating, is it? But that's not exactly. That's not what I would call an urgent thing.

Well, it's putting my modeling career on hold, isn't it? It's one of the things that's doing that. One of the reasons. Yeah. What's something that you feel like you should have done ages ago and you haven't done it? Something that is debilitating is that every couple of months my foot just starts getting all crunchy.

Like next to the ball of my foot. Is this the pot noodle thing again? Well, it's directly below the same pot noodle uh burn um yeah it just it just goes crunchy and i can't wear certain um shoes and i sort of walk with a kind of clawed stance i sort of ball up my my foot a little like a feral kid yeah like a little feral kid little little gibbon boy like the sort of my my grab up grab a grab a ranch but yeah it's it's really painful and it makes a crunching sort of sound and feel and uh yeah it's not ideal it's it's not a it's not a situation oh really no i can't just

wait for things to go away and most of the time i do for things to go away yeah okay fair my wife's always telling me that i never go to the doctor but i just i don't really feel like i need to go to the doctor at the moment. I haven't said what I've just said about everyone kind of, people who are just so phobic that they won't ever entertain you. I'm not like that. I just feel like I do touch wood. I live a reasonably healthy lifestyle despite appearances.

And so I don't really feel the need to go to the doctor all the time. So I don't know. I mean, if I had a coin stuck up my nose for 50 years, I probably would. I probably wouldn't get to that stage i think when i found out that my granddad had um had a heart attack at 52 i thought oh fucking hell that's that's not good probably in the post isn't it um and so i just bought myself a blood pressure machine it says yes i am pre-hypertensive or whatever you call it oh does it really so you should go to the doctor and work out what what the best thing to do is. I'll just steal some of your dad's statins, my mum's statins.

Yeah. Start on them early. I reckon that sometimes. Taking an ad in every day. At some point, this is the most irresponsible podcast you can find anywhere. We're talking about first aid, not bothering. We're talking about stealing people's medication. It's not great. Because I talking about stealing people's medication.

It's not great. Yeah, because I think certainly with men, you go to the doctor and you know what the answer will be. Eat better, exercise more, don't be a tit, don't drink so much. It's like, am I realistically going to change any of those things about myself? No. Then why bother? We all know what the answer's going to be. Do you want some alcoholic soup?

Do I want some? Don't you know dashiwari? Yes, I do. going to be. Do you want some alcoholic soup? Do I want some? Do you want some? Yes, I do. Yes, please. Thank you. Wrap you in a blanket and say, calm down, warm yourself up with a bit of soup. The answer is, hi. Anyway, we should have a little break.

And when we come back after the break, we're going to catch up on some emails. I've got a few to get through, despite what peaks on Monday. There are a couple in there to get stuck into. So take a quick break and we'll come back and do that. I couldn't look at light. Dr. Willie Stewart, Melissa spoke to ex-Tottenham star Ryan Mason, who was forced to retire after a devastating head injury aged 26. I couldn't look at light. I was sleeping for like 20 hours a day.

I couldn't really hold a conversation. Like I say, when the brain gets an injury, the body almost just instinctively responds and it almost just shuts everything else down. Meanwhile, self-care club Wellness Road Tested have launched a brand new epilogue show. Join Lauren and Nicole every Friday where they'll be hearing about your experiences, talking to the experts and reading the

very best wellness literature in the Self-Care Book Club. I think it's a totally life-changing book for sisterhood and womankind. It's revolutionary in how to adopt self-love and live for who you are. Search Between the Lines and Self-Care Club on your favourite podcast player.

All that and more at Sukarnov. And we're back for the Luke and Pete Shaw part two on your Thursday. Luke, have you got an email for us? I have. And actually, weirdly enough, I just got a breaking news notification to my phone saying that Google, YouTube, and all the associated companies have just suffered a major outage. So that's why I can't connect to our Google Doc.

We're sharing a Google Doc. I was genuinely, I didn't want to worry you, Luke. I got a bit scared. She said something went wrong, reload on my screen. And I thought, oh, what if it's the portents? What if something terrible is going to happen scared he said something went wrong reload on my screen i thought yeah same it doesn't matter if what if it's the portents what if something terrible gonna happen further down the line with the with the with the system here at testa carnav yeah no i think i think okay um i want to start off with this from joe whitfield he's my old pal we grew up in the same town uh not a very very

massively close friend of mine but someone i know well and i do personally like very much um he sent him his school report from when he was nine years old i can't quite remember i'm just trying to work out what school he would have gone to it wouldn't it's not the same one as me um so i can't name it um but joe uh said he was nine years old and he got to receive the following three reports from the teacher so for art and craft, he got this report. Joe has little concept of shape or colour. He needs to be more observant and to make a much greater effort. A bit harsh. Religious education.

Joe's examination result was very good. It is a pity he has not shown the same hard work and endeavour throughout the year. What do you want? What are we going to remember? There's no pictures on the score sheet, dickheads. I'm going to be a terrible parent because I'm just going to be reading these guys. He's fucking nine years old.

Don't worry about it. I know. Yeah, we'd be good parents, I think. And the final one is on music where his teacher, I don't know what her surname is, but she appears to be called Sheila. Joe shows talent both in music and drama, but he must pay more attention to musical theory. He's fucking nine.

What musical theory does he need to know at nine years old? That's what I want to know. Musical theory? He or she, the teacher, are making their own job sound fancier than it actually is. Yeah, no, they are. Absolutely. They've got delusions of grandeur.

Part of the reason I wanted to read that email out from Joe is admittedly a self-aggrandizing reason because I haven't seen Joe for years and years and it actually warms me to know that someone who's spent time with me in the past is choosing still to hear me. Yeah, it's great. He's a mug.

Maybe they're just waiting for me to fuck you up. Eviscerate me, yeah. You probably are. That's probably their highlight. Yeah, exactly. What havecerate me, yeah. You probably are. That's probably the highlight. Yeah, exactly. What have you got there, Peter? I have got an email from... Oh, I can't access it

because I've got it on the old Gmail, haven't I? Leave it to me. Oh, nuts. Leave it to me. Leave it to you. I'll see us home. Don't worry, I'll see us home.

Liz O'Neill. I mean, I'm sorry I put all of my eggs in the Google basket, but I just thought... Seems like a safe bet at the time. I mean, yeah, I'd say... I'm sorry I put all of my eggs in the Google basket, but I just thought... Seems like a safe bet at the time. I'm no market strategist, but lordy. The responses you don't tend to receive when people mention Google are,

I've never heard of them. They're never working. They're always unreliable. Liz O'Neill has sent in a new battery brand. I think we've got a new player entering the game. DMEGC battery with a little Canadian flag on it. I'm pretty sure that's a new player, I think. I think that is, yeah.

That is a new player. Very late arrival. And this email here from Rob I enjoyed. He said, good evening, gentlemen. Long time listener. First time emailer. I also remember the Black Tiger arcade game fondly. So I thought I'd see if I could find online. I could. And I regret it. It's shite. Another childhood memory ruined. Have a crack and see what you think.

And he's actually put a link in there. I have to give that a go later on. But what I would say is this, right? You're not going to enjoy the graphics because you've been used to so much more i mean don't listen rob don't get on don't get on the blower to me saying that black tiger looks shit or is shit after you've probably just stopped playing cyberpunk not whatever it's called yeah because it's not going to be the same thing secondly you've not got a joystick as far as i know you're using it on the computer keyboard mate it's not the same experience.

Is it? I couldn't get through it. I couldn't get through to the actual game because I clicked on that link. Oh, it didn't work? Couldn't get it to work on my Mac, though I do have one of those new M1 ones, so that might have something to do with it. Have you got a brand new Mac?

Papa's got a brand new Mac. Because I think I need one because my E button doesn't work. Why do you use your E button? Well, it's the most common letter in the English language, isn't it? I'm typing, Pete. Is it really?

Yeah, the E is, yeah. Ah, interesting. There you go. Well, I don't understand the question. Why are you using the E button so much? Because it's in words. What's so much compared to everything else? Well, I probably spilt

some fucking dark coconut or something. I don't fucking know. Okay, fair. What I would say is this. I probably spilled some fucking dark coconut or something. I don't fucking know. Okay, fair. What I would say is this. I mean, for Apple's prices and for their reputation, the E button should not be working after like two and a half years. It should not stop working. Well, yeah, two and a half years.

I guess you're in a situation where you think like if it dies within a year, I think you've got problems. But two and a half years, you're quite a heavy user, aren't you? That's your main computer. I put acai berries in it, like that guy with the meth. I can't use it to try and make something like this. But the thing is, the problem is I can't rule out it being my fault. I might have spilt something in it.

And if I take it to the store, they're going to say, tell you what you shouldn't do, Mr. Moore, you shouldn't be, you know, putting all the Haribos in it. We found a single penny behind the e yes for 53 years not not worth anything um let's just squeeze one more in really quickly this is an email from um will who has got in touch about a famous teacher he says hi luke and pete uh long time listener second time emailer ignored but no offence taken. On subject of you being taught by someone from the world of top level sport, I have a story about my brother's old PE teacher, Mr Boswell.

As I understand it, yeah, Bozzy, as I understand it, the class were generally aware of Mr Boswell's interest in cricket, but had no idea about his past in the professional game. Over time, more vague references to his playing days were made enough for someone in the class to ask what level he had played the game at they were taken aback at the teacher's overly defensive response making it quite clear he wasn't happy straying any further down the line of this questioning naturally curiosity led them to have a go at googling his name on one of the school's computers they weren't expecting to find out anything particularly interesting but worth a go as it

turns out their teacher was scott boswell who had been a medium fast-paced bowler for leicestershire a few years earlier while not mind-blowing in of itself further digging revealed that boswell's career was essentially finished during the 2001 c&G Cup final at Lourdes, in which he had bowled what was often considered to be the worst over in history. After a 14-ball over with eight wides, five of which were in a row, the unfortunate Mr. Boswell was released by the club a month later.

From what I was told, the class were quite merciful and didn't bring this up. I hope this is true. Looking back on it, it does seem that it took an understandable mental toll on Mr. Boswell. My brother and his classmates

always have the claim of being taught PE by the ninth biggest choker in sport history according to The Observer. Oh, that is good. See, we don't hear these stories of just, you know,

we didn't know what happened to Ali Daya after he fucked off. Is it Ali Daya or Ali Daya? Ali Daya. It's scored the most goals in international football history. In football, isn't it? happened to Ali Daya after he fucked off. Is it Ali Daya or Ali Daya? Ali Daya is that he scored the most goals in international football history. He's a footballer, isn't he? Yeah, Ali Daya or Ali Daya is the guy, yeah. Ali Daya, yeah. So you don't sort of hear what happened to him next, you know,

because he's obviously the famous kind of like rubbish footballer in Premier League history. But yeah, these guys have to live on after underwhelming. He got to the C&G Cup final at Lodz though. Come on. Yeah, I think the natural rebuttal to that would be, look, I've got myself

in that position and fair enough, it didn't work out as I expected or as I planned, but these things happen. I got there in the first place. Not many people can say that

and I also would like to apologise to all the American listeners who didn't understand a single word of that email because cricket is an alien concept to them. Like us and baseball, basically.

Exactly, exactly. Well, that was very interesting. Thank you very much to Will for that email. Absolutely. Shall we get out of here? Shall we do the off? Yeah, give us an email. Hello at LungPeteShow.com.

Get in touch. If you bought something weird Christmas present-wise and you're not really sure how well it's going to go down uh tell us if you received a really terrible or really awesome gift last year tell us if you're not looking forward to um the approaching christmas obviously there's going to be new rules in place about who you can see who you can't see uh has there been an emotional reaction to the bubble mates that you've chosen for your for your christmas uh and maybe you're not even getting involved in Christmas at all.

Do you remember... And do you guys know if women are allowed in the clergy? Yeah. Do you remember when that bloke emailed and said that he accidentally called his mum a greedy cunt? Yes. That kind of stuff's what we want. That's one of my favourite emails because it's just so rude.

So wonderfully rude. Absolutely. On that note, get them in. We'd love to hear from you and have a great rest of the week and the weekend and we will see you next time
