you ready yeah you ready my little non-fungible token oh that's a really sweet nickname i think
yeah i think if you if you called your partner a little non-fungible token i think that's quite
adorable you are irreplaceable irreplaceable and Irreplaceable. And artificially rare.
Valuable.
And I'd love to see you
stuck on the blockchain forever.
Handcuffed to the blockchain.
That's where I reside anyway.
How you doing?
It's the Luke and Pete show.
Welcome to the show.
If you're not familiar
with our work,
we do this every week.
We literally do this
every week twice.
This is the Monday,
the 7th of February show.
I hope you're keeping well.
Now it's February.
We're hurtling towards summertime, baby.
And I'll tell you what, it's going to be hot boy summer.
Are you having a hot boy summer?
I'm going to have a hot boy summer.
And do you know why?
Because Indie Sleaze is back, Luke.
Have you been?
Because of my nipple.
I follow Indie Sleaze on Instagram.
What?
So I didn't know there was an Instagram profile just dedicated to Indie Sleaze.
So it's just like a kind of...
Yeah.
It's pictures from the noughties, basically.
Yeah.
I'm quite cynical about it, to be honest.
But I read an article on Vice.
Sorry.
Bless you, by the way.
I'm going for a three.
Go on.
Lovely stuff.
That's the hat.
That's my three.
That's my Empire Strikes Back.
I read an article on Vice about indie sleaze.
And it was one of those typical things where, you know,
I don't know this because I don't know who wrote it.
I can't even remember the name of the person.
But it really dripped with,
I wasn't quite old enough to be around when this happened.
So it looked like it was really cool.
So I reckon it probably was really cool.
P.S. have you seen this Instagram page?
All the photos of people looking really cool in that time.
We're probably talking about, I don't know, maybe 2004 to 2010,
maybe, something like that.
But I happened to have the unfortunate honour
of actually living through that, and it was fine.
Yeah. But also, Luke, I'm slightly weaker-willed than you, honour of actually living through that and it was fine yeah but also
Luke but I'm slightly
weaker willed than you
and I really have to
say I'm pumped
for the fact that
something that I lived through and wasn't
like every other kind of shitty
movement that no one gives a shit about
I was almost kind of there
you were a part of it? I was a part of it.
I was in the holly.
Your second album's amazing.
I was working for XFM.
You know, I was in the middle of the...
And you're right, it was okay.
And it's partly why I don't like it.
Yeah, exactly.
No, it wasn't.
But what I was just going to say,
and you're absolutely right,
you were one of the least tangential parts of this,
so I will let you have your say,
but I do really want to say that
the Instagram feed itself is quite disappointing.
Is it, right?
It's not even all big artists.
It's just like, here's some of my mates.
Back in the day.
I don't know who runs the account.
Here's the keyboard.
It's from Paul Tiger Tail.
Not even that.
Look what he's up to.
Not even that.
It's just people with big hair.
You're not even on nodding terms with
Jolene and the
Jing Jang Jong.
I used to follow that guy
from Jolene the Jing
and the Jing Jang Jong.
He's an actor now,
I think.
Not on Twitter,
not on Instagram.
Used to follow him
around a club
for some reason
because he looked cool.
Weird.
Then you talk to him,
not cool.
I've not even seen
any long blonde content.
He was in the Pipettes.
He was, yeah.
He's an actor now. He certainly did become an actor. He did a bit. He did a bit. He was in Neff and Barley. I long blondes he was in the pipettes he was yeah he's an actor now
he certainly did become an actor
he did a bit
he did a bit
he was in Neff and Barley
I don't think he was a great guy
I don't think he was a great guy
no
a friend of mine
this is getting really tragic now
but a friend of mine
knows slash knew him
not a great guy
okay
but you were involved
but look
but not a great guy
you've got to be very careful
about what you say
when you say not a great guy
just not a great
just not not a great guy but none of us can be very careful about what you say when you say not a great guy. Just not a great guy.
But none of us can be great guys.
Not many of us can be great guys.
That's a really good point, because I think today...
When you suggest not a great guy, it sounds bigger than it is, isn't it?
Exactly.
And I should make that clear.
I think these days, because, you know...
Don't care for him.
You can't say anything these days, right?
Because it makes out like I'm saying he's done something wrong.
Problematic, yeah.
I don't know if he has or not.
I've got no clue.
I'm just saying if some people...
Just say he hasn't then.
He's done nothing wrong.
But sometimes...
But we have heard the journaling that you've done wrong.
If I say to you, oh, do you know so-and-so?
Yeah.
And you like, and you'll probably go, oh, yeah, yeah, nice guy.
No one ever says, oh, yeah, I know him.
Bad guy.
Right, okay.
But there's got to be a scale here.
But why does no one say bad guy?
Not anything wrong
just not a great
just not a great guy
right okay
fair dude
because people say
it about me
that is true
and no one else
what's looking more like
I've heard he's a bad guy
and I was like
I'm not
he could be bad
he could be good
I don't know
do you know what the
worst thing about that
he went with him
for 12 years
the worst
longer than that
the worst thing about it
isn't even that
I would like it
if people said that
sometimes they'll just say
oh yeah yeah
he's actually alright
what were you expecting
yes
what were you expecting
so I'd like
we're married
I'd like to be
as sexy
as a lawyer's letter
you know when you read
a lawyer's letter
and it's like
well that's sexy
uses proper words
and it's got a bit of menace to it
it's got threats
it's professional
oh it gets me hard. I want to be
as sexy as that, so I want people that sort of go,
he's bad news.
Bad news Brown. Bad news Donaldson.
Bad news Donnie. That's what I want.
You know Pete Donaldson? He's
bad news. I think
that'd be really cool. I think I was
bad news. And he's as sexy as a lawyer's letter.
That's a really good simile.
Simile. Not a metaphor.
I was a bad boy once.
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Not a bad boy for life then.
Fly tipping.
No, I'm only joking.
Cow tipping.
Holler tipping.
Do you remember getting kicked out
of the Capital Radio Christmas party?
I didn't.
Swinging on the chandelier, baby.
Swinging on the chandelier.
Yeah, kicked out.
I've got no respect for that because I'm a big fan of...
It's about eight o'clock.
It wasn't even on.
Fine.
What am I going to do now?
Too big to swing on any chandeliers.
That's what they said.
Were you there?
You just wish that you were...
I'm trying to think.
I'm trying to think.
Is there a music video where someone swings on a chandelier?
No, there isn't.
Is there...
There's that Sia song that's about swinging on a chandelier here. Don't know it.
And then there's, uh, chandelier here.
Don't know it. Isn't that about,
are you taking the piss? No. Sia,
is that the one with the hair that goes around the face?
I know she is, I've heard the song. She sang a song called
chandelier here. Right. On a chandelier here.
I think it's about swinging on a chandelier.
But then there's the song
uh, Wrecking Ball.
Yeah, great tune Ball by Cyrus.
And I'm sort of confusing those two.
And for some reason,
I'm thinking of the little girl swinging on the chandelier.
She's not,
she's dancing around.
So where have I got that in my head?
I've got Only Fuzz and Horses.
I've got Sia and I've got Miley bloody Cyrus in my head.
What contribution did you make to the Indie Sleeves movement of 2004 to 2010?
I did not have long hair.
I shaved my head.
I said,
I'm not getting involved with that.
You all look like you've got knits.
And to be honest, the way you carry on,
you probably will have knits.
You must have DJed an event or two.
I've DJed an event or two, yeah.
I did my fair share of Hoxton-based Sony Ericsson launches.
I've been to Hagerston.
These white pumps have been to Hagerston a couple of times
yeah
I do not want to
see skinny jeans
back because my
testicles are
I don't know
whether they'll
keep them in check
because my testicles
as I get older
there's a thing
where testicles
go down
as you get older
I don't think
they've gone down
but they're certainly
more
creating more
mischief
when I sit down
they keep on just
popping under my body.
Can I make two
testicular points?
One for each ball
if you like.
One is that
you're absolutely right
read testicles
as you get older as a man.
It's absolutely right.
And that makes me
think of a guy
who I used to know at uni
who could
basically put a pint glass
under his balls
and the balls would hit
the bottom of the pint glass.
That's long.
He was like our age, like 20.
So what's he doing now?
He'd need them cut off, wouldn't he?
I'd just be like, look, if I'm not using them,
wrap a little porcelain rubber band around it.
That brings me to my second point.
Would you then take the deal of doing what they do to cats, for example?
Yeah.
Where they remove the nuts, but not the sack.
Yeah, I've got no use for them.
Just get rid of them.
Get rid.
Don't need them.
They're only problems, aren't they?
What about your lovely partner?
Maybe she's got something to say about that.
I mean, I'm fairly certain that people over a certain age,
having kids probably isn't biologically happening.
So you don't need them.
Don't need them.
So you're basically officially declaring on the Luke and Pete show,
the breaking news they're going to PR is your nuts are useless.
They're not useless.
They probably are useless.
The way I've whacked them about.
Hid them in things.
So you've always been really the waffle iron really skinny tight jeans
yeah
or slapping them about
yeah
it's not a great environment
for them is it
it's just
there needs to be
a middle ground
they were
battery hens
now they're free range
yeah
and either way
they're just causing bother
so going back to
get them off
get them off
going back to
Sony Ericsson launches
I had a club night
at Brixton Windmill
did you now
I was just I was just
I was just more
like street than you
what was that indie
yeah but
hedge your bets too much
you need to be
you know
you need to be at
the
I DJ'd at Yulu
I DJ'd at Yulu
you need to be at the
Infinity Club in Mayfair
no I never went there
Frog
Frog at Mean Fiddler
that was a big one
oh in
yeah but that was yeah but that closed down quite...
I think that was before the old Electro Clash
super, super bollocks.
It was on the cast.
So I was at Polydor Records when Klaxons were on it.
Right, okay.
So I was...
Neat label, mate.
Pete, I was 30 feet from Stardom.
Major label, not main label.
No one says main label.
I don't fucking know.
As I said, I liked Paul Tiger label. I don't fucking know. As I said, I liked Paul Tiger Tale.
I don't know music.
But you stayed true to Pulp all the way through, right?
Yeah, I love Pulp.
Was there a time when it wasn't cool to listen to Pulp during that scene?
Well, someone made the point that Pulp's first appeal session was 81.
1981.
Cocker is old.
Amazing.
No, but like 81.
They were going for that amount of time before their breakout hits.
His and hers was like 93 or something, 92.
That's an incredible time.
So I think Cocker will be 60 next year.
Yeah.
There's a bank or television that I like who, I mean, people probably know who they are.
They had a record called Marky Moon, which became massive.
Can't quite remember what exact year it came out, but I found something out about them a while ago.
It came out in the late 70s, maybe 77.
Actually, I think it did come out in 77, around the time punk kicked off.
They're an American band.
And I think they had that album ready and done for like four years
and no one would put it out.
Really?
And they just stuck at it.
Yeah.
And it eventually got put out.
It's seen as an all-time classic now.
So I think it can take a lot longer than people think.
I mean, there's probably a lot of bands whose third, fourth albums
are the ones that have exploded for them.
And then around that time, you're talking about that kind of early 2000s time,
it was very much a firework band thing, right?
Yeah.
About the bravery.
And everyone go, they're amazing, they're massive.
And their first album would be big
and then they would just disappear as quickly as they came up.
Yeah.
I sort of look at like,
you know when you see bands that are so iconic?
Like, you know like Bad Brains,
where the lead singer will start a set by doing a fucking backflip.
Yeah.
And you're like like if they're not
massive why are they not massive because the lead singers just done a fucking backflip yeah like to
kick things off yeah you sort of think you see these bands that are just so incredible so together
but i remember seeing you know i remember i said about before like the only gig that uh was like
big band in small venue before they were kind of famous a little bit was the killers in,
in,
in,
in the underworld.
Oh,
what's that one?
Offway up bloody Camden high street.
The electric ballroom.
No further than that.
Dublin castle.
Further than that.
No,
the other way.
It doesn't matter.
Anyway,
it doesn't matter.
No,
no,
no,
smaller.
Anyway,
maybe 50 people watching the killers and they were together.
They would, they were, They were a stadium band then.
And you could sort of tell that they were going to absolutely fucking blow up.
And they did.
But you sort of go, they already saw together.
But there are some bands that were shit and continue to be shit,
like Kasabian.
And they're on the main stage.
You sort of go, this band is shit.
No, but I think that's down to perspective. You reckon? Yeah, because I can remember when Kasabian. And they're on the main stage and you're like, this band is shit. No, but I think that's down to perspective.
You reckon?
Yeah, because I can remember
when Kasabian first came out
and that was before I moved to London.
So it was pre-2004
and they were doing really interesting things.
They were sending out,
we would buy seven inch vinyls of Kasabian
before they had an album out.
And I'll tell you,
I'm not trying to say I knew them
before they were popular,
but we genuinely,
me and my friend Duncan,
we used to buy the
Kasabian 7 inches
because they used to
send out bits of
merch with it
and some of it would be
like proper like
subversive graffiti
stencils and stuff
and people would go
around spraying them
and it was quite interesting
and their songs were
quite dark and quite
interesting and then
of course they went
completely like
that other way
I don't agree that Kasabian's a great example I know what you mean I personally don agree that Kasabian's a great example.
I know what you mean. I personally don't agree
Kasabian's a great example of that.
I just look at them on a main stage and say,
this is second stage.
The main man's coming back with a solo record, isn't he?
That will be good.
What? Is he? I think so, yeah.
Wow. I'm going to use the word hubris.
Hubristic.
Old Serge is doing all the main stuff normally, isn't he?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Interesting.
There we go.
I wonder how that's going to be received fully, you would imagine.
I would have thought so.
Yes.
But then some people will listen to anything.
What I was going to say to you was,
it's been quite fashionable among the young'uns to be 90s now,
for a while now, hasn't it?
They dress like that.
If you walk past a college near
where we record
there's like
80 year old kids
yeah they're all
dressing in the kind of
the stuff that we were
dressing in in the mid 90s
do you think the
indie sleeves thing
will come back
I think it's very much
yeah coming back
skinny jeans
big hair
can I just say
v-neck tops for the men
the hair
the hair was
in one way
quite cool
if you had the hair for it it looked good yeah just a lot of volume just a lot of Tops for the men. The hair was, in one way, quite cool.
If you had the hair for it, it looked good.
Yeah, just a lot of volume.
Just a lot of... A lot of work goes into it.
A lot of people didn't know that's a thing.
Just a lot of hair.
And then that kind of sussured into that kind of, like,
American emo hipster kind of stuff.
Yeah, crossover.
Crossover emo on that side, electro on that side.
You had the horrors all look really good.
Do you remember how good they looked the horrors
they did
they looked
but they didn't really
have the track did they
they didn't have the track
that were going to
bring them through
they have endured
they're still playing the stuff
so they've still
got a massive
rabid fan base
they developed into
a really thoughtful
interesting band
I saw them at York Hall
in Bethnal Green
way way back in the day
the guitarist
makes his own guitar pedals
does he
and I think
Ferris Badwines
are producing that
and maybe even
an actor as well.
Anyway,
anyway,
no,
that was on the running order.
I told producer Roy
I hadn't looked at it
and that's now come to pass.
Before we go into a break,
Pete,
did you want to talk
about Donald Trump?
Apparently you do.
Oh, yeah,
I was going to do that.
But I sprung that on you.
Yeah, you did.
Sorry,
I was going to give you
something else.
I'll tell our listeners what it's all about.
So we were obsessed for a while with the way that Donald Trump said China, right?
Yeah.
China.
China.
China.
We used to say that quite a lot.
And that became a thing over Christmas in my family's house, actually.
We kept saying it.
My sister, my brother-in-law, the wife I have access to, my parents kept saying China, China.
And then you said to me the other day, that's all good and everything, and it's funny,
but have you heard the way that Donald Trump
says the word pedophilia?
Now, Americans say pedophilia,
so it's slightly different,
but he says that in the most ridiculous way imaginable.
This actually came from a Twitterer
by the name of Childish Mozart.
Mozart? Mozart.
Yeah.
And, yeah, just listening to the new episode of The Luke and Pete Show,
you and Luke mentioned Trump sounding camp.
I was wondering if you'd ever heard the way he pronounces pedophilia.
Start off with white supremacy, I denounce it.
You start off with something else, let's go.
Keep asking me these questions.
I do have one more in this game.
Let me just tell you,
what I do hear about it
is they are very strongly against pedophilia.
With complex words.
Make him say it again.
He's really got a kind of,
he really leans into it.
They are very strongly against pedophilia.
It's like it's been dropped into his brain by someone else.
And he's said it for the first time.
Yeah, it's like it's thick, deep thick or something.
It's like sort of pedophilia.
When like theatre critics would talk about,
I can remember like people doing a retrospective on Laurence Olivier, right?
And I remember some theatre critics saying that,
you know, when Laurence Olivier did Shakespeare,
it was like he was saying the words for the first time.
It was the first time he ever thought of them,
not that he was reading them.
That's the same with Donald and the word pedophilia.
It's the first time he's heard.
It sounds like he's learnt that word today
and he's like, I'm going to get that in later.
Pedophilia.
Do you remember when,
was it just John Fashionew's daughter?
Or someone?
Yeah.
No, it wasn't John Fashionew's daughter.
Right.
It was Alexandra Burke, right?
She's John Fashionew's daughter?
No.
No, John Fashionew's daughter did this in broadcasting for a while,
so I had to call the cops.
Right, okay.
But Alexandra Burke, she was on This Morning or something.
She had been to the US doing some work.
She'd come back and she was on This Morning.
And I think the phrase was the elephant in the room
right or something like that it was one of those kind of well-known kind of um idioms and um and
but she clearly thought that she was the only the first person to be bringing it to the uk
right she's like a really big run-up at it didn't know that everyone already knew it and and let's
just say it was the elephant in the room something like you know so um yeah i just felt like after a while to me that you know as i say in the us it
was something of the uh elephant in the room and everyone just glossed over it and you could see
her being like visibly like that didn't land that's donald trump and pedophilia could you explain
elephant in the room please alexander yeah oh what a great idiom. What a great idiom.
Fantastic.
Oh, speaking of people getting things wrong, Luke,
I'm a big fan of Cameo, you know, the site that you can go on.
You can go out and pop up financially, I would say.
Exactly, yeah.
I spend all my pocket money on getting celebrities to say stuff of my bidding.
Now, there is a fellow that gets advertised to me on Facebook Marketplace,
inexplicably.
It's like a website like Cameo called Memo,
and they basically do a similar sort of thing for B-grade celebrities.
Is it the one Matt Letiz is on?
No, Matt Letiz is on full Cameo, as is Mark Crossley.
But for some reason, they always sort of sell me in on this particular profile
on Memo.
And it's a character called Heisenberg Breaking Bad.
So it's a man who looks, as you can agree,
looks just like Heisenberg from Breaking Bad.
And presumably can't call himself Bryan Cranston from Breaking Bad because it's Walter White or whatever.
So you've got to say Heisenberg, Breaking Bad.
And
he looks good, but you
will not believe how
this man sounds.
Let's have a look.
Hi, Takuma.
Congratulations on your
success.
Your parents said to me that you are
a big fan of Breaking Bad.
I know that you are going to Albuquerque in April with your dad.
Who has been there?
Your dad can't wait to do the Breaking Bad tour with you.
Jesus Christ.
He needs to be doing not an audio medium.
No, I know.
He shaved his head for this as well.
He looks really good.
Like, he does look very good.
They've also used as close as you can get to the theme tune
without breaking the copyright.
Yeah, yeah.
A lot of them, he's just sort of going,
I hear your friend has got a God don't make meth with me in the desert.
That's just so shit.
I would give it good luck with your new book.
Wishing you all the best.
And I hope it's a bestseller
for you.
It genuinely
sounds like my barber.
He sounds like the guy who cuts my hair.
Shout out, Eric.
But if you'd like to go
and get a...
At these fan
conventions and stuff, like
Comic Con, Dragon Con and stuff, there Comic-Con, Dragon-Con and stuff,
there are people who do amazing cosplays of characters.
Oh, yeah, incredible.
But they never speak.
There's a famous guy who looks amazing.
He looks exactly like Leonard Nimoy of Spock.
And he's, honestly, mate, he's like seven foot tall and rake thin.
Nice.
And he looks perfectly like him, and he just never speaks.
Presumably because he doesn't sound
anything like him
yeah perfect
there's a girl
who does the
girl from the ring
yeah
but that girl
doesn't talk anyway
but you know what I mean
so what he needs
to be doing
is he needs to be
he needs to pick
something that doesn't talk
yeah or just don't
fucking talk
yeah
but it's hard to
I don't know who's
paying money for that
I love it when you just went
pedophilia
pedophilia
oh yeah anyway let's have a break we've got time for a break I love it when you just went, pedophilia. Pedophilia.
Anyway, let's have a break.
We've got time for a break, I think, so let's go and take one now.
When we come back, we will look at some of the... Apologise for everything we've done.
Yeah, look at your emails and read out some of our faves.
Don't go anywhere.
We'll see you in a sec.
All right, then.

that is the missing Luke and Pete show episode.
It's like that Doctor Who that was,
well, a few Doctor Whos that were lost to the annals of time.
Were they?
Yeah, like the masters and stuff.

was there
Stepton's son
a lot of Stepton's sons
lost
Dad's army
those ones
yeah like
you dirty old man
you dirty old man
you dirty old man
you dirty old man
yeah
interesting story
behind Stepton and Son,
but I can't remember any of it.
Good stuff.
I think they might not have liked each other
in quite a vociferous way.
Well, I mean, look,
it very much lends to the...
You are definitely Harold.
But do you not think that
there would probably be this thing where,
you know, like Golden Girls,
where Betty White was younger than...
Like, you know, the oldest lady
was actually younger
than the youngest lady
in the fucking TV show
whatever
in real life IRL
what?
the old lady
in Golden Girls
the oldest woman
you know the oldest
old one
who's supposed to be
everyone's mum or something
right
she was about as young
as the youngest one
right
in real life
so
why don't they just find
someone who's older then?
because she looked old
so it's fine
right okay I mean it's probably easier to work with a younger actor find someone who's older then? Because she looked old, so it's fine. Right, okay.
I mean, it's probably easier to work with a younger actor
than someone who's actually 85.
Yeah.
Speaking of that, actually,
I told you about the wife I have access to's family's home
and their next-door neighbour is a lady
who's of some considerable age, Madeline.
Bless her, she's lovely.
She's 103 now.
Amazing.
I said to the great LC, Madeline. Bless her. She's lovely. She's 103 now. Amazing.
I said to the great LC,
I said,
is she the oldest person in the state of Connecticut?
And he said,
he said he wasn't sure,
but I really wish we could find out
because that's the main,
and it also got me,
sorry,
Roy,
we will,
Ray,
not Roy,
we will come to your email,
but I actually want to talk about this
because it then got me looking
into the oldest living,
the current oldest living person.
Right.
Because I was thinking, right,
if she's 103,
I've never heard of anyone personally
that I've ever known,
even tangentially,
being that old, right?
Yeah.
Is that 114?
Have you ever heard of anyone being that old?
Yeah.
That you know, though?
Oh, no, no.
God, no.
I think my oldest is my nan.
She's 96.
So Wikipedia's got the top 100 living oldest people, right?
I wonder if Madeline's getting anywhere near that.
Guess how old you've got to be to be in the top 100.
To get in the top 100 in the world.
Top 100.
105.
114.
Jesus.
So there are over 100, 113-ers.
And guess how old the oldest ever person was.
Yeah, but is it disputed, though?
No, it's confirmed, verified.
116.
122.
Shut up.
So when you got to 100, you've still got 22 years.
22 years.
You've got second puberty
so I think I'm right in saying
that Finn who works with us
basically when he was born
she was 100
yeah that's amazing
but obviously then she's not living
she died in 1997
the oldest living person
is a Japanese woman
by the name of Kane Tanaka
who is 119.
Is she disputed?
I want to say she was disputed
or something.
Confirmed.
Right, okay.
There's a space on Wikipedia
for confirmed
and then like rumoured business.
But then when you get
into the rumoured stuff,
it makes you ridiculous.
This man's a thousand years old.
Because I remember being
in a taxi in Japan
and there was this guy
who genuinely looked desiccated.
He looked about 90
and he's driving,
tooting around in his taxi.
So driving fucking fast as well.
And he looked really old
and his,
his,
his.
It'd be fast of him
because time moves quicker
as you get older.
So imagine how fast
he thought it was.
He's flying a spaceship.
He,
his,
his,
his date,
he had like his kind of
date of birth or something
on the,
you have to have like
your little card up and stuff
and your date of birth
written on there.
Where was this,
sorry?
In Japan.
Yeah, okay. yeah okay but it was
so it was like 30
so the date said 35
I was like
you were born in 1935?
yeah
that's incredible
my grandad is 19
he was born in 1931
but he
so
it wasn't actually
he was
he just looked fucking old
but the 35
was in the age
that he was in
as in the emperor
ship
so the age goes
from when the emperors
like the different ages yeah I thought you were going to say he was in as in the emperor ship. So the age goes from when the emperors whether it hit like
the different ages.
I thought you were going to say
he was actually 35.
So what?
So like the Showa era
started in
I want to say the 70s
I don't know.
But like
they certainly
they started at a certain time
and your dates
go from that time.
Sounds like a weird way
of doing it.
Yeah.
It's over complicated.
Silly.
Okay right.
You've got a calendar guys
sort that out.
Yeah.
Okay.
Stop being obsessed with blood groups. Did Japan use the same calendar as us yeah okay um ray our friend ray sorry thank you for being patient ray um he wants to follow up
on the missing episode as i've said um because brett from leeds first flagged it with us and
asked whether we had like done that on purpose or'd got rid of it for some legal reason, and we haven't.
Ray says,
I can confirm Brett from Leisure is correct.
Episode 140 has been removed.
I never got to hear this.
It had been removed by the time I got to it while reviewing the back catalogue.
Cheers, Ray.
I don't even remember.
Basically, it was the Horses Can't Vomit episode
because Brett got in touch with us.
Episode 140.
I can't even read out the synopsis because it's not on there.
And this kind of stuff doesn't really happen to us
because we're an adult,
fully professional production company.
Why has it disappeared?
I don't know why that happens,
but if anyone would like to take up the mystery,
perhaps speak to someone at This American Life,
or I'll tell you a do something on there,
Heavyweight would.
Who are Heavyweight?
They, they, they're like a,
that was really cheeky.
It's just surprising,
I thought you'd like them.
Right.
They do episodes,
about things,
innocuous things,
that are actually quite interesting.
Yeah.
Do you want to,
do you want to see the,
do you want to see the description?
Yes,
go,
go for it.
It's true,
horses are almost physically unable to vomit.
Pete brings this incredible piece of trivia, I sound good in this one. I wrote this synopsis. On this Wednesday, you's true. Horses are almost physically unable to vomit. Pete brings this incredible piece of trivia.
I sound good in this one.
I wrote this on this Wednesday,
Thursday.
And after that conversation rapidly turns onto what other things horses can and can't do,
uh,
including a frankly terrifying injury.
Someone suffered while instantly walking through a field elsewhere.
There's the outer hair brothers,
people who steal content.
now we're stealing content from ourselves.
Uh,
now Jean water bottles and phoning in sick.
Also, I've got a very sore foot.
And if you have any tips to alleviate his pain,
you should let him know.
I wonder when that was then.
Interesting.
Yeah.
Well, I can tell you when it was.
It was in February of 2019.
Yeah.
So there you go.
There we go.
Anyway, Peter,
shall we squeeze one more email in before we go?
All right, then.
I think you should read it. Okay. Yeah me uh i was just i was just looking at
i'll play that content to you we could play the full episode for you okay have you got it
no i pressed it said the audio's not available i don't know what's happened there it's interesting
that's because it's missing we've just been covering yeah steven has got a touch hi chaps
bear with me on this one famous eileen's yeah so this came from last week
Eileen Drury
yeah but last week
last week we found
out Shania Twain's
real name was Eileen
that's true
and we couldn't
remember a single
famous Eileen
apart from Eileen Drury
who you thought
ran the FA
but was in fact
Glenn Hoddle's
faith healer
Stephen
says bear with this one
famous Eileen's
my mum
given how famous
Eileen's are
she may as well
be the most famous
here are the reasons she's my mum. Given how famous Eileen's are, she may as well be the most famous.
Here are the reasons.
She's my mum.
And to my knowledge, I only have one mum.
Gotta be pretty unique.
Two, she has a soothing Irish accent until she's angry.
And then she sounds like the lady in Paisley.
She is a fan of Star Trek to the point where she wanted her email password to be hello in Klingon.
Neither myself nor my sisters know what hello in Klingon is, so we just made it
kaplunk. We've since changed it
since, so don't try and hack
Steve. Well, you'd have to know her email address anyway, wouldn't you?
Yeah, and she loves Dexy's Midnight Runners,
which I think is universally mandatory for
all Eileen's case clothes. Keep up the good work.
Stephen, a wonderful email, wonderfully
dispatched. Yeah, and Luke and Peter is a broad
church, listeners from all sorts of different places,
and no one's got in touch with a famous Eileen yet.
No, and if you've got a song that is named after you,
not named after you, but like the song that has the same title
or description or chorus that involves your name,
are you a fan of it?
Are you not a fan of it?
That's the thing.
I always think like, is the damned Eloise.
Good song, but I don't know many Eloises. Elo's the thing. I always think he's the damned Eloise. Good song, but I don't
know many Eloises.
Eloise.
I think it becomes both a blessing and a
curse. Correct. When I was growing up, everyone
used to say shit about Star Wars to me, right?
Oh, yes. I think it was really original.
Luke.
It's not original, is it? Because you've heard it a million times before.
Would it be fair? I'd say
I start every sentence these days with, would it be fair to say i've got to stop doing that but i do it to
other people and think i'm being really original yeah i mean i've not learned the lesson of my
childhood i've kind of passed it down you know you know like when you're a kid and you'd see
like a family member and they go last time i saw you were this high yeah and that annoyed me at the
time yeah now i do it yeah i do it almost instinctively because because there's genuine
excitement it's genuine excitement.
It's genuine kind of like,
oh my fucking Christ,
that's amazing.
Yeah.
It's amazing.
Yeah.
But they don't like it.
They don't like it.
Your mother wouldn't like it.
No.
Where's that come from?
Sinister.
When I was at Butlers,
I was shouting that out the window.
Your mother wouldn't like it.
Do you remember like horror films
and bad naughty video games in the 80s
used to have like posters saying,
your mother wouldn't like it. Oh, as in like, get it, because you're going to piss off your parents. used to have like posters saying your mother wouldn't like it
or as in like get it
because you could piss off
your parents
yeah nice
your mother wouldn't like it
we've got to go
but have you started
watching Yellow Jackets
no
it is about bloody wasps
you post it on Instagram
there's a big wasp
on a woman's face
there's nothing to do with wasps
there's a wasp on the
fucking cover
this is like that film
that had that
South American actress in it
that they cut
it was a
Burton
film they cut the South American actress in it that they cut. Was it a Burton film?
They cut the South American actress from it,
and she was in the trailer, Ana de Armas?
Yeah.
She was in this Burton film, but she got cut out in the last minute.
She was like the love interest in it.
But they put her in the trailer,
and then loads of fans of Ana deadamus complained and wanted their money back
and wanted to sue
well fairly so I think
I think so massively
I don't think
but it's nothing like that
what do you mean?
in this analogy is the wasp Anadamus
yes
okay right so she's a wasp
in yellow jacket
which isn't about wasps
is there a wasp in it?
no because it's named after
why the wasp on the cover then
you're making me think
it's all about wasps
and I love wasps
But do you think
that everything that happens
They're all in my best figs
It has to be literal
I'm just saying
that's advertising
We get taken advantage of
so many times in Hollywood
so if we can get a bit back
and start a class action suit
saying there's no
fucking wasps in this film
there's not
Anna the fucking waspy
in this film
This is like
Alexandra Burke again mate
Did you think
there was actually
an elephant in the
room it's a metaphor
oh lordy
anyway I just
want to see a waspy

between now and
the next show you
should watch it
