Fire in the booth.
Fire in the booth.
I'm expecting a slightly more intimate booth
than the one we've got now.
Ours is quite spacious,
so if there was a fire,
I think we'd be all right.
I think we'd be able to deal with it fine.
I don't actually know where the fire extinguishes, you know.
It feels like a fire.
There's a fire on every corner of the studio at the moment.
My mum and dad are going back from London
to Hartlepool today,
and I don't think their train's going to be going.
No, it's going to...
I listened to... This is the Luke and Petra, by the way.
Hello.
Episode 188.
I listened to the radio this morning,
and they had a guy on,
they rolled a guy out from Network Red or whatever,
saying, oh, this is the situation.
These tracks are made for certain temperatures,
and at the moment we're outside the comfortable level
of temperature for the tracks.
Forged in a big hot place themselves, of course.
Yeah, exactly.
Sounds like they are.
Reminds me of home.
They'd like it.
Reminds me of home.
Big old puzzles.
So, yeah, it is warm.
But we'll get through it, won't we?
We'll get there.
One of the great things about a heatwave,
I'm just going to put this straight out there, Pete,
and I'm hoping you're going to jump on board with this,
and I'm hoping our listeners do as well.
And if you've got anything to say about this or anything else,
of course,
it's hello at lukeandpeach.com.
But one of the great things about a heatwave,
for me anyway,
is seeing news stories about animals in zoos
enjoying odd flavoured ice lollies.
Yes.
Fish with,
fish,
penguins do eat a lot of fish ice lollies.
I saw some penguins yesterday
who were enjoying mackerel flavoured ice lollies.
Just tucking right in.
Just because they like fish normally
give them a blooming calippo
there was a guy on my walk
into the train station this morning
he was on the bins
right
and he was eating a calippo
yeah nice
that is my
food of choice
I wouldn't be eating
if I was on the bins though
what do you mean
it's a bit weird
take your glove off
take your glove off
yeah he was working one handed
because of the calippo
on the other hand
yeah
but those mackerel flavoured ice lollies,
they've been dyed red and blue.
Oh, so they're like...
Because I was thinking,
I don't really know
why you think that the penguins
would care about this, you know?
There's mackerel in this.
Disgusting.
Surely you're just freezing
a load of water
with mackerel inside it
and they're going to get...
It's like a little game for them,
isn't it?
Maybe it's mackerel blood.
What ice lollies
would you put out there
if you...
Just, I mean,
magnums can get stuffed.
I think they're rubbish.
And not on a hot day.
You want an ice-based one, don't you?
Obviously, I am a big proponent of the Japanese ice cream, Coolish,
an ice cream that has never been exported, I believe, to England.
But I fear one day that will be my destiny.
In a post-Brexit world, we might start doing some deals with Japan.
Describe Coolish
to our listeners and to me.
It's like a Capri Sun,
you know,
like a pack of Capri Sun.
Yeah.
The new version
with the little stopper
on the top.
Yeah,
I'm not about that.
I prefer the straw business,
yeah.
Yeah,
but then straws in it.
You don't want straws.
True,
actually.
And then,
yeah,
there's all kinds
of different flavours
from like vanilla
to vanilla.
And then,
there's one version
that's a little bit
more like a salt bit
which is delicious
Calpis
Calpis is like a
Calpis
Calpis is a
yoghurt based
kind of cordial
and it's very
very nice
very refreshing
I think it's lychee
flavoured or something
I quite like lychee
flavoured things
why hasn't it been
why hasn't it ever been
brought to
the fine shores
of the UK
you occasionally see a bit of calpis
in Japanese supermarkets
usually the concentrate
but the actual ice cream itself
well it doesn't travel very well
you'd have to import it in bulk
and I don't think there's that much of a demand
for the old coolish
but I do love it
if you put it in the shop
people will buy whatever they buy right
if it's there in front of them
it's marketed properly
but it's funny because
there's a really nice
build your own ice cream
sundae place
in the US
called Sweet Frog.
Sweet Frog.
And they give you
loads of different flavours
of ice cream
and you can put your toppings
on all that kind of stuff.
The stuff that Americans
are generally quite good at.
And when my wife first moved here
we were talking about things
about what she's going to miss
and she said,
I'm going to miss Sweet Frog.
And I said,
well maybe they've got one
in the UK. We'll check, right? So I googled it. There is one going to miss. And she said, I'm going to miss Sweet Frog. And I said, well, maybe they've got one in the UK.
We'll check, right?
So I Googled it.
There is one in the UK.
Let me guess.
Bearing in mind,
the only Hooters in the UK
is in Nottingham.
Yeah.
Is it Nottingham?
Yeah, no.
It's in Southend.
Southend.
One Sweet Frog in Southend.
I'm not sure if it's still there,
but I thought,
it's not really that convenient, is it?
Well, Southend's got a beach,
hasn't it?
It has to be fair.
It has, be fair.
It has, yeah, but I'm not sure why they decided that was the best test ground for a sweet frog,
but there you have it.
What else has been going on, Peter?
What's been filling your week?
You've just been trying to stay out of the heat,
or you've been enjoying embracing the heat?
The first Taco Bell in the UK that I've been to,
yesterday with my mum, she wasn't impressed.
Well, she was, actually.
She ate all of her food gainly.
My mum and dad
had been down.
I sent my dad off
to go and see
the old Book of Mormon.
He very much enjoyed it.
I bet he was.
He was very,
and I walked past
the bloke,
apparently,
every now and again
there's a bloke
who stands in
Leicester Square
with a big table
and he explains
the Quran
to people
who aren't
or fear with its teachings and, you know, how it's a good thing, etc. table and he explains the Quran to people who aren't au fait with
its teachings
and you know
how it's a good
thing etc
and I walked
past and I went
my dad's going to
love a bit of that
I bet he starts
talking to the
bloke about the
Quran and true
enough he sent me
a picture of all
the leaflets and
copies of the
Quran he got off
the man
did he talk to him
yeah yeah my dad
loves talking to
anybody who's
you know doing
that sort of thing
doing that sort of caper.
And what was the upshot of that?
I've just been to see Booker Mormon.
Well, I've just been to see...
He said, fuck God, in the ass.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Don't open with that.
I think dads who hold discussions
with ethnic minorities or...
Dads, any dad.
Any dad, yeah.
Dads, it gives them an out
when some of their less
refined
opinions about things
comes out
well no
I was talking to a bloke
I was talking to a random
Muslim guy in Hartlepool
so that's why
I think I'm right
how refined
are your opinions
they're pretty refined
almost to the point
oh so they're over refined
yeah
they've gone back round again
they're like
it's like refined sugar it's just my opinions are just a bag full of coolish what Refined, almost to the point of... I would say they're over-refined. Yeah. They've gone back round again. They're like... So you don't know where we are.
It's like refined sugar.
It's just...
My opinions are just a bag full of coolish.
What, um...
Did your mum order at Taco Bell?
I think that's what everyone wants to know.
I just ordered...
This is both a, um...
What's his...
Mum, you can come to Taco Bell,
but I'm ordering for both of us.
I'm ordering the Doritos box.
I had a sugar-free Mountain Dew,
which is actually quite alright.
Now I've just said sugar-free Mountain Dew.
Yeah.
I'm salivating a little bit
I really want a sugar free
Mountain Dew
I want that fizz
I think they've got
I'm fairly certain
that these sugar free
sort of fizzy drinks
soda kind of things
have got some kind of
undeclared
not studied enough
addictive quality
I mean they've been
all the zines and the zides have all been in there since like the 70s haven't they so I mean, they've been, all the zines and the zides
have all been in there
since like the 70s
haven't they?
So I mean.
I had a,
I had like a small bottle
of Pepsi Max cherry
about a month ago
and it was delicious.
Right.
It was very,
very refreshing.
Yeah.
And I think I might have
bought about
10 bottles since
and it's just not like me
to do that.
So I think there might be something afoot.
Something in there.
Yeah, because there's a lot of talk about aspartame, isn't there?
But I mean, apparently it's the most tested ingredient around
and nothing bad has been come of it.
But you wonder about these more modern things
because you wonder if there's a big enough sample size
over a long enough amount of time to know.
Well, I think...
Anyway, what did you have at Taco Bell?
I just had one of
those Doritos box
a damn quesadilla
I had a quesadilla
and a one of those
like hard shell tacos
oh yeah
hard to eat in it
put whatever you want
yeah a little bit
but um
where is it
yeah we had a nice
time next to mum
and my dad's
terrible hotel
oh in Russell Square
they insist on staying
in the most
like the place
that's the worst
place to get from
like you know it's close to you.
That's what squares are, right?
Because it's between King's Cross and Oxford Circus.
Yeah, that's fine.
But my mum and dad insist on walking everywhere.
So by the end of the day,
like my mum had a heat stroke yesterday
because my dad insisted on dragging her around.
And I bet no one's drinking water either.
No, God no.
When my grandad, bless him,
he had like a UTI a while back. I might have already told you this, but anyway, had like a UTI a while back
I might have already
told you this
but anyway
he had a UTI a while back
and I did a load test
on him
he's fine now
but turned out
he'd only been drinking
red wine and coffee
for the last two years
or something
it's the only thing
that's passed his list
we don't need that much water
I mean we do want to do
like this
but let's make that very clear
don't be putting that out there
there's literally health warnings
on the BBC website
and you're coming on saying,
we don't need that much water.
I was on,
also a mate from America
has popped over
to see a friend
whose wife
suddenly passed
last week.
She,
he,
he was in the hotel
with his daughter.
It was this adorable
little New Yorker kid.
Yeah.
And she calls me,
Uncle Peter.
Uncle Peter.
Yeah. We said Uncle Peter. Uncle Peter. Uncle Peter. Yeah.
Is that Uncle Peter?
It sounds Australian.
I don't know.
Is it Uncle Peter?
Really dicks, Uncle Pete.
And I was,
every time I play,
Breakfast at Tiffany's,
do you remember that song?
Yeah, of course.
I can't remember the band name.
Deep Blue something.
I played it on air
and I give him a shout out
because he always used to
hate that song.
I said,
if he's listening, which I think he was listening,
I'm playing this for Anthony who hates this song.
And he recorded me doing it on the radio,
on his hotel telly.
And his daughter went, but why?
It's a great song.
Really?
But why?
It's a great song.
It's in the right tune, isn't it?
He said, Uncle Peter. I think I had it on CD single.. Really? But why? It's a great song. It's in the right tune, isn't it? He said Uncle Peter.
I think I had it on CD single.
Did you?
Nice.
And tell everyone listening
about someone who shared a video of you on the radio.
Oh, yeah.
It's a slightly different circumstance.
No, because it only happened, I think, the other day.
Yeah, I think I mentioned it on the ramble,
but somebody was fellating somebody else on Twitter.
Well, not on Twitter, but
that does happen a lot.
Someone uploaded the video to Twitter.
Amateur pornography.
And a pervert who clearly follows my radio
show, and
it seems just retweets a lot of grot.
He forwarded me,
well, he sent me the video saying,
hey, check this out. And it was me in the background
telling people to get on your mobile phone,
text WIN to Air 1215 to win £40,000.
He did not do that.
He continued a blowjob.
He continued receiving a blowjob.
It left me very confused.
What do you mean?
Well, just because I thought, I don't know.
I've never before associated your voice with fellatio.
No.
Either giving or receiving.
That was quite a surprise
because when you
when you showed it to me
straight away
when you actually saw it
for the first time
we were sat together
doing something else
and you were like
look at this
this bloke just shared
shared a porn video with me
brilliant thanks mate
yeah
and then I didn't realise
and then we clicked on the sound
oh god
and then it got a little bit weird
sent it to my boss
went check this out
did you
he said he didn't text
he didn't text the money so you sent it to your boss. Check this out. Did you? He said he didn't text. He didn't text the money.
Did you send it to your boss
and say,
that's two listeners on radio.
Put that on there.
Yeah, very interesting.
And then somebody sent me
a screenshot of a man
with glasses getting a blowy.
Don't need it, do you?
Yeah, don't need it.
Don't need it, really.
Porno likes
don't really need that
in my life.
Although there was a guy,
a colleague of yours once
who got caught
leaving the mic up
watching pornographic material
while on the radio himself
was it not?
true
I don't think Jazz FM
Jazz FM
if anything
were part of the
GCAP slash global network
at the time
okay right
but it did happen though right?
it did happen yeah
you can just hear
mechanical chains
and whips
and two blocks
kissing and cuddling
nice
over the top of jazz music
still find them.
Mate, I sometimes like
to dig out stories
that I think you will
find interesting
and try to get your
reaction to them.
I came across a story
yesterday about
Latitude Festival.
Have you been to
Latitude Festival?
I think I worked there
a couple of times, yeah.
The RSPCA are kicking off,
aren't they?
Right.
Along with PETA,
who are always kicking off,
by the way.
Because there is a tradition
at Latitude Festival
of dying the sheep on the farm.
Ah, that's right, yes.
Pink.
Pink.
Pink sheep.
Look, here's a picture.
Yeah.
What do you make of that?
Does it harm the animals?
Does the sheep care?
Apparently it's environmentally friendly
natural dye.
Right.
It's a bit demeaning, isn't it?
I mean, maybe, yeah. I mean, it's... If demeaning isn't it I mean maybe yeah
I mean
it's
if I was going to
ask the sheep
in question
getting all my
hair shaved off
yeah true
actually regularly
yeah
regularly
that's quite demeaning
but that's for a purpose
though right
and it doesn't hurt them
yeah
this is for a purpose
for entertainment
is that important to you
yeah like seeing pink sheep
more important to you
than wool
what is their point
is it just
it's upsetting people
because it's
one of the quotes is
a ridiculous instance
of animal exploitation
for entertainment profit
and some Instagram likes
the sheep are sentient beings
not party props
yeah
again they are eating them
is it mutually exclusive
can you be both
because Pete
you and I have both
been sentient beings
and party props
in our lives
yeah
I think yeah I mean having a situation where you die shoot for instagram and
people taking nice pictures and stuff it's it's all it's all a bag of wank in it it's it's what
pete it's what really stupid people think is cool yeah look at that yeah oh so so decadent here
i've got pink sheet but one thing that annoyed me on behalf of
there's a red telephone box in the middle of norway what oh here's two carefully planted
bales of hay in front of a neon sign in the middle of a field saying love everything yeah
saying live love laugh but you know on this story about the pink sheep there's loads of pictures of
the sheep obviously as you'd imagine and it. And it's quite a controversial story, I suppose.
And then there's just a picture of Lana Del Rey,
saying Lana Del Rey was among the headlines at Latitude Festival this year.
If I was Lana Del Rey, I'd be like, why am I suddenly involved?
I wasn't involved in this.
I've taken the coin.
It's hardly Beyonce playing the UAE, is it?
No.
It's hardly some sheik's, you know, party.
It's hardly like people flouting the blockade of South Africa during a party.
It's hardly Radiohead playing Israel, is it?
No, exactly.
Unbelievable.
Roger Waters is fuming about that, he is.
He's always fuming about that.
Roger Waters, you would assume, because Pink Floyd is beloved by a lot of quite Brexity men,
you would assume that he was Brexit, but he's really not.
He's quite right on, isn't he?
He is quite right on. Don't he? He is quite right on.
Don't forget, we're going to take a short break,
but don't forget in these amazing...
I won't forget.
...and severe temperatures to drink enough Roger Waters.
I've not had any waters this morning.
You've got your Nalgene out.
I'm more of a Gilmore man.
I'm more of a red wine and coffee man.

See that chap over there?
He got your hand off my penis!
He never did.
He never did take his hand off my penis.
He never did.
Oh, a friend texted me
a picture of his testicle. Oh, good. Would you like to see it? It's a doo there. You never did. Julian Assange. Oh, my friend texted me a picture of his testicle.
Oh, good.
Would you like to see it?
It's a doozy.
I wouldn't like to see it,
but I suppose for the purpose of this
I'm probably going to have to see it,
aren't I?
He's just had...
So what's the context here?
What have we got here?
He just had a vasectomy.
Right.
Do they tie it these days,
or snip it?
They tie it, don't they?
Is it not a cauterising?
I think you tie it so you can undo it again.
Nah, surely not.
Some people change their minds.
Nah, that would just restrict blood flow.
And surely you've got blood flowing to the actual tubes.
I believe it's a tying process.
Yeah, well, they all say it's an in-and-out job, really easy.
Look at the state of those testicles.
No, I did not need to see that.
That is severe bruising.
And also the wound itself
looks like there's
a wasp's nest in there.
That's not great, is it?
It's not great.
Why is he properly posing
with the flash on
pulling his penis out the way
to show you the last chicken
in St. Mary's?
He just wants to share the pain.
He wants to share the pain
with his friends.
Are you thinking about
having the procedure done then?
I mean, who knows?
I'm probably shooting
blanks at this point
who knows
well because of all the
abuse you've put your
body through
I've only given myself
several vasectomies
myself and reversed them
no I don't know
I don't know why
I'd
I mean you don't wear
a condom just to
stop babies do you
you wear a condom to
prevent the flow
of problems
as well
as well
yeah
okay but the
presumably this guy is in a relationship
and they've had children
and they don't want to have any more children.
He's not putting it about a bit anyway,
is he?
He's just having sex with his wife, presumably.
No, he's not.
Yeah, but I'm sure...
I mean, you can't put it about with that state.
Be careful.
He's busted it.
He's broken it.
My mate went sailing.
I remember my dad having a vasectomy
and at one point,
I think at one point,
he did take a football to the groin
and he hit the deck
and I was like, Dad, what's going on? I don't think he properly I think at one point he did take a football to the groin and he hit the deck and I was like
Dad what's going on?
I don't think he properly
explained it to me
because I was about 8
and he just had the snip
yeah
oh
it just feels tender
in my mind
I'm sure it's all
very non-intrusive
looking back on it
I think we'll agree
good on him for still
playing a bit of football
he's not shied away
from that
he's not ducked out of that
I mean exactly
what's the worst that could happen
what a terribly unlucky thing to happen
a friend
who I had breakfast with yesterday
because I do have breakfast
do you have breakfast
you have breakfast with friends
oh you went to Dishoom didn't you
Dishoom yeah
because you couldn't come for lunch with me
because you went for breakfast
with someone else
that's a look behind the curtain
I've got to maintain relationships mate
I've got to maintain shit you were. I've got to maintain shit.
You were just having a mocktail.
You were having a mocktail in the Hoxton Hotel.
I had a lovely lunch in there.
Lovely lunch.
It was a delicious lunch.
She went, she used to go sailing with a bloke
who used to work with a lot of vasectomies.
He was an expert in untying them,
uncauterising the vasectomies. He was an expert in untying them, uncauterising the vasectomies.
And he
used to, he had nearly enough money to
buy a beautiful boat anyway. But I was like,
does that mean he's good at tying knots?
Like sailing knots, or bad?
I'm not really sure. Does he move quickly from town to town?
On this boat?
I'm just going back on my boat with my knives.
Yeah.
This is a gutting knife. Are you qualified for this? This is a gutting knife.
Are you qualified for this?
Oh, look at that beautiful sunset over there.
Let's do some emails, Peter.
Lots of people have emailed in to hello at lukeandpete show.com
with a perfect five out of five Uber rating.
All right.
Including Josh, Ben and Hannah.
I'm going to say that they did not have many rides.
I would like to see the number there.
That was exactly the point I was
going to make
I think we are
going to need to
see the amount
of trips
because you and
I still post
I think I'm on a
4.72 or something
you're posting a bit
higher than that
I believe
but you and I do
hit that Uber
button more than
the average I would
say
as a non-driver
I'm yawning there
sorry everyone
a non-driver
I'm obviously using
it a little bit
more than most
I think I might get
an Uber home tonight
purely because
it's going to be so hot
from here
I think it's going to be a shit fight
so fancy
well to get an air conditioned Uber
it probably costs me
a little bit of money
but what's the value of that
the value of that is very high
the value of that is very high
because if a train's tracks
are warped
mm
van's warped to her
opening tune on
Red Hot Chili Peppers
One Hot Minute
warped warped right that's the only musical reference I can think of my sister-in-law went to that tour? Opening tune on Red Hot Chili Peppers One Hot Minute Warped.
Warped, right.
That's the only
musical reference
I can think of.
My sister-in-law
went to that
reformed Warped
tour the other
week, I think.
Alright,
she enjoyed it.
What I don't like
about whatever
the Warped tour is,
all the bands I like
just seem to get
further and further
down the bill.
I think that does
happen.
Real big fish,
less than Jake.
They were there,
they were definitely there because she shared some They were there. They were definitely there
because she shared some photos.
Yeah, they were definitely there.
It's a 25 year anniversary, isn't it?
So that's why it's happening.
Anyway, yeah.
They played in Atlantic City
with Monster Energy.
Now, there's nothing...
I can't imagine how much
Monster Energy drinks
I could have drank
when I was of age
where you could actually get...
But you were straight edge, were you not?
You can't have Monster Energy
if you're straight edge.
I was straight edge. I was pissed. You've could actually get away with it. But you were straight edge were you not? You can't have monster energy over your straight edge because it's got caffeine in it.
Every,
every,
every,
but isn't the straight edge
scene quite big
in that type of music?
Yeah,
well,
yeah,

If Steve-O's not there,
I'll be very surprised.
There can't be any more
Pete Donaldson if he tries that.
Balling for soup.
The only way it could be
more Pete Donaldson than this
is if everyone was wearing
espadrilles and there was
a Japan tent.
Let's do an email
from a guy called Burton.
Now Pete,
strap yourself in
because unlike you
I like to give our listeners
fair warning
when something's going to come up
which is a little bit disgusting
think about warning
dum dum dum dum dum dum
this email
dum dum dum
is a follow up
on the segment about otters
in episode 183
alright ok
Burton says
they may look sweet
but otters
are serial murdering
necrophiliacs they kill even when it doesn't provide them with food or offspring in 2010
there was an article in aquatic mammals that documented 19 cases of sea otters attacking
baby seals here's just one for your delectation a weaned harbor seal pup was resting on shore
when an untagged male sea otter approached it grasped it
with its teeth and forepaws bit it on the nose and flipped it over the harbour seal moved toward
the water with the sea otter following closely once in the water the sea otter gripped the harbour
seal's head with its forepaws and repeatedly bit it on the nose causing a deep laceration
the sea otter and pup rolled violently in the water for approximately 15 minutes Wow.
Intromission. Yep, after raping a baby seal to death,
the otter licked his paws like some kind of psycho.
There's countless more tales of otter rape and murder
to be found on the internet,
but I think it's suffice to say they are evil creatures
and should be thought of as such.
Cheers, Burton.
That started off like,
one of your stories where I go,
that's some amazing animal fact
that I'm not going to be amazed by.
But yeah, that turned very much
into Pete's cul-de-sac.
It did.
And I don't know,
hopefully I'm not alone in asking this,
but can I hear more about
Aquatic Mammals magazine, please?
Because that sounds like
a very specialist publication.
What do you make of that? Look at the grot that it's bringing forth. Incredible, really. Because that sounds like a very specialist publication. What do you make of that?
Well, look at the grot
that it's bringing forth.
Incredible, really.
Can't interfere either.
You can only observe.
Yeah.
That's what people think
when they listen to this.
I see your hands.
I mean,
I would probably
have to interfere
with myself.
No, I'd throw a rock at them.
Stop fucking that
baby otter's...
Throw a rock at them?
Yeah.
Peter. Stop the otter doing something dread... Throw a rock at them? Yeah. Peter.
Stop the otter doing something dreadful.
Here's more violence.
Yeah.
In the shape of a rock.
Yeah.
You've got to keep people in line.
You're at the top of the food chain,
so just let's throw rocks at people.
At least give them a verbal warning.
Look, that's enough of that.
We're not having any more of that.
How old is that otter?
How old is that...
Sea pup.
Otter seal.
No, otter seal.
Otter and seal
pup mashup
if you throw the rock
it's like a hostage situation
where you've trained
your sniper rifle
on the hostage
and the terrorist
you don't know which one
you're going to hit
no exactly
incredible
like wow
that's something else isn't it
I've got another
animal themed one
which I'll just
squeeze in quickly
before you do your email
this one is from Ewan
who says
hi guys when
i was small we went to sea world in florida before it was problematic to keep whales in tiny pools
um we've all been there as well as the orcas they had heaps of cool sea mammals including a big old
walrus me and a bunch of other kids on a tour were watching them with awe at the blubbery walrus
through aquarium glass when it approached the viewing glass
and promptly started pleasuring itself
by rubbing against it vigorously.
Yeah.
The SeaWorld host was trying to distract us
with chat and facts
when the walrus spoofed all over the glass.
Every time I see a walrus on TV,
tumbling down a cliff or otherwise,
I fondly remember that happy old walrus.
What do you make of that?
What can I make of that?
What can anyone make of that?
Not babies now,
it's all over the window.
I imagine like a walrus ejaculation
is quite a big deal as well.
Quite a big deal.
It's because of the little whiskers,
isn't it?
And that surprised slash satisfied look in his eyes.
There's something about a walrus
which makes it look a bit like an old professor.
Yeah.
Whoa, you caught me
put a monocle
and a bow tie on it
and then it suddenly
feels very very different
amazing
have you got any stories
about jizzing animals
yeah about animals
who are
you know
engaging in that kind
of behaviour
it's hello at
lukeandpete show.com
yeah
have we talked about
that bloke who was a vegan
have we talked about
that bloke who was a vegan
who stopped being a vegan and he got a lot of abuse yeah we have yeah we talked about that bloke who was a vegan have we talked about that bloke who was a vegan who stopped being a vegan
and he got a lot of abuse
yeah we have yeah
we talked about him
but I think
I heard about him on the radio
yeah
he was talking about
how upset he was
yeah
Carwin has got in touch
who is a vegan
and there's a little bit
of bias there
says Carwin
but
how do you know
when someone's a vegan
Tim Schieff
what
how do you know
when someone's a vegan
is it they tell you
yes
Tim Schieff is a bellend okay you know when someone's a vegan? Is it they tell you? Yes. Tim Schieff is a bellend.
Okay.
This is the guy who was moaning about it.
He came out,
he changed from being a vegan to something else.
Yes.
And said that he felt a lot better not being a vegan.
Yeah.
Okay.
I became a vegan 18 months ago,
getting on the bandwagon,
and first became aware of Tim around August 2018.
He was very much known in the vegan community
due to his appearance on Ninja Warrior
and his ethical clothing brand Ethics,
which he has since resigned from.
It was about this time he'd completed a 28-day fast
where he only drank water.
There was a lot of promoting this achievement
and the huge positive effect it had on him.
I consider this incredibly troubling.
Is it an achievement of human endurance?
Yes.
Is it glorifying starvation?
Also, yes.
With a huge following,
I found it equally really irresponsible to promote such a thing
and potentially trivialising eating disorders.
In fact, there are many vegans who tend to diet
due to their eating disorders as a form of control in their recovery,
although I acknowledge this doesn't work for everyone.
Anyway, bragging about starvation as follows didn't sit well with me.
That aside, move on.
He has shared many videos since then
and always made reference to his gut issues
that he was experiencing
and his attempts to rectify this through different diets.
For a long time,
and up until his change to eating animals again,
he was on a raw vegan diet.
So essentially, it just means fruit and veg.
Can you get all the essential nutrients you need?
Probably yes, with a lot of hard work and planning,
but I don't think he was doing this.
He even at this time got his stomach bacteria tested
for his nutrition levels by a
vegan nutritionist YouTuber called Goji Man.
The feedback being, your levers are all off,
you need to improve your diet, and water fasts
don't help, and probably go and see a doctor
if he's experienced all these issues. Many of the
comments in his YouTube videos are, go and see a doctor
for crying out loud. But Tim
is a let me read what I want on the internet kind of person.
He even did a video where he was questioning
if the world was round after seeing the evidence provided
by flat earthers. Cut to his
coming out video as a meat eater. In this
video he addresses a months long issue with
his gut but stating that water
fastens lightning and the best thing he ever did to make him feel
better. Alright. He mentions
he tried everything
to make his gut better except
to go and see a doctor or any type of
actual health professional. He's even been drinking his own piss every day. and see a doctor or any type of actual health professional.
He's even been drinking his own piss every day.
Oh, okay.
So he's a madman.
He's a madman.
He then mentions the first animal-based food he ate was a wild-caught salmon,
and then that night he had a wet dream
and it was the first time he'd managed to ejaculate in months.
With all that water,
you would assume it would be really easy.
Again with the walrus chat.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, so basically the man admitted
in his own YouTube video a salmon gave
him an orgasm and he drank piss i'm not here to preach that vegans have a better diet anyone could
have an unhealthy diet regardless of the restriction they put on uh do i think that the man being a
vegan gave him this who's not he fasted for a month he drank piss every day he heavily restricted
diet to raw fruits and veg and he refused to see a doctor. He's an attention-seeking madman.
Someone else pointed out to me, thanks for that email.
If I went on YouTube and
just had videos of me drinking my own piss,
you've got to ramp up to that, haven't you?
Yeah. He probably wanted to get to that point
at some point. Yours are all set to private at the moment, aren't they?
Yeah, exactly.
As part of our Football Rambler Daily Patreon tier.
I'm going to drink my own piss.
You know, I appreciate that email.
That's good clarification.
I didn't know much about him.
I think we did talk about it in fairly vague terms
because it was an interesting story
rather than pretending to be the experts on it or whatever.
But a lot of other people have got in touch
about nutritionism and nutritionists and dietitians
and pointing out, actually,
and I've got this on the Association of UK Dietitians website,
dietitians are the only nutrition professionals
to be regulated by law
and are governed by an ethical code
to ensure they always work to the highest standard.
I think nutritionists are the kind of people
who just decide they want to be them.
You're Julian McKeiths of the world
and all the rest of it.
I remember I used to go out with a girl
whose sister was a chiropractor.
Yeah, there's a little bit,
there's a lot of controversy around that as well, you know.
A lot of quackery in that,
in that caper, to be honest.
With apologies to,
oh, fuck it.
I remember she bought,
back in the day,
used to get hand scanners.
Now, scanners weren't always flatbed scanners,
the ones we have today,
to scan something in.
You had a handheld thing,
and you would run it
solely across the document you were going to be
scanning.
I don't know who would
modify the firmware or modify the software
to do this, but basically
she'd gone off to some conference and she'd come back
and she'd been sold this hand scanner.
It was clearly like an Amiga
level kind of hand scanner
plugged into a really expensive laptop.
Pure three grand worth of quackery right um you know 200 quid's worth of old kit um and you
would run it down someone's back and uh and it would sort of um tell you oh you're drinking too
much coffee you're drinking and like nothing you could find really from the for the surface it
wasn't it wasn't sucking any chemicals it was just bouncing light off your skin. And how long ago was this?
And this was like 15 years ago.
That's unbelievable that she would fall for that.
Because there was a situation with the scale I've got at home,
which obviously weighs you,
but it also measures your fat content, your fat level,
fat percentage.
And it's a Nokia thing.
It's a Nokia set of scales.
It links up to an app on your phone. It's really highly rated, and it's a Nokia thing it's a Nokia set of scales it links up to
an app on your phone
it's really highly rated
and it's quite expensive
but I did a load of research
around it
after I bought it obviously
and there was a load
of controversy
about how accurate it can be
apparently
the only real way
to get your fat percentage
is to go to a
proper clinic
get your pincers
and they do it that way
so back then
15 years ago
that is essentially snake oil, isn't it?
I think all they've done is to verify, to vary all of the results.
They've just turned the image that the scanner scanned
into some kind of algorithm to change it to, you know,
well, let's put the coffee up to, you drink a cup of coffee.
It's a round of generator.
Too much sugar.
Yeah, it's just all that bollocks, really.
But I guess if you scan the same back twice,
you'd probably get similar results because of the skin colour, etc. It's a health minefield out there, Pete, isn't it? It's all a all that bollocks, really. But I guess if you scan the same back twice, you'd probably get similar results because of the skin colour, etc.
It's a health minefield out there, Pete, isn't it?
It's all a load of bollocks.
And that's why we're starting Luke and Pete Enterprises,
Cacao Balls.
Dr. Luke and Dr. Pete, thank you.
That's the end of the listeners' appointment this week, Pete,
but it should come back on Monday, shouldn't it?
