This is the Luke and Pete show, episode whatever, doesn't really matter. We lost our way big time with that.
Lost our way, to be quite frank even if we did know it wouldn't really matter because this is a special episode. We are coming at you from New York City.
This is 7th Avenue, we're walking down 7th Avenue.
We're doing a bit of jaywalking. We don't care that the light isn't... that was a nice dog.
I sacked off the idea of not jaywalking because I know it's a crime here after about 20 minutes
of landing here and realising that you will get absolutely nowhere if you don't do it.
And everybody seems to be really into jaywalking here. I thought it was a capital offence.
Safety of numbers, isn't it?
Well, I've seen people get told off for it in Texas, but not here. It just seems to be
a get away with it. You just seem to be able to get away with it.
But do you think there's a kind of element like there is in London where if you're in
a small town in the UK, the police care about everything?
Whereas in a big city, they don't care about anything, because they can't.
They're just happy that you're not doing a poo on the floor in public.
Yeah, absolutely.
So yeah, walking down 7th Avenue on a Wednesday afternoon.
My head is still ringing from the fact that I knocked my little Do Not Disturb sign off my hotel
door, went to scoop it up and the hotel door closed on me and crunched my head. The handle
went right in the top of my head. It really was a sub-optimal situation.
The housekeeping at that hotel are very on it I left my I
left my do not disturb sign on the door yesterday woke up this morning to a
voice message from housekeeping oh yeah I got one of those yeah saying do you
know you've left your do not disturb thing on yeah well who else would have put it
there what's the point of having it then it doesn't make any sense I never let
anyone in my if I'm in a hotel room for more than one day I never let anybody in
my room.
There's literally no point in anything of them thinking about it. That's my space. I don't want you upping my shit.
It's terrible for the environment as well. It's not like you need your stuff changed every day.
No. Well, have you raided the minibar yet?
Yeah, I had some Pringles actually. Even though I don't really like Pringles.
Oh yeah, you're always on this tirade about Pringles.
I needed a snack and it was the only really thing that was worth it.
The thing is, they've got big packets of M&M's in the minibar here.
I imagine they're very expensive.
But they're four times the price as the ones in Walgreens down there.
Yeah.
So there's no point.
I just went to Walgreens and got two packets of Walgreens.
Well, you looked at your selection of treats in the hotel room in your pants and thought,
I'm going gonna go down
a Walgreen's. There are certain people in our lives they would travel to the
next dimension to get them just to save $10. Oh yeah definitely
but I can use the minibar as an inspirational catalog. I quite fancy that
but I'm not doing it here. That's where I'm gonna start. I just had some classic Good & Plenty's.
I don't even know what that is. They's just old school licorice torpedoes.
Oh right.
In tiny little packets.
Good & Plenty's is a good name isn't it?
Good & Plenty.
It's kind of a frontier kind of name.
I think it's more like old school, the sort of candy you'd buy at a baseball match.
Good & Plenty, Cracker Jacks, stuff like that.
Butterfingers, big fan of those.
Big fan of the old school.
What do you think of New York City just to walk around?
It's a pretty cool city to walk around, isn't it?
Yeah.
The first day I was here, I went to buy myself some trousers
because I'd just brought the wrong trousers from it.
Right.
I actually bought some socks earlier.
Did you?
Because I only packed Nike tennis socks,
which are the MVP of socks.
But I couldn't wear those with slip-on shoes,
so I had to change.
We, I was in the-
So you bought trousers, what did you get them from?
I bought trousers, just to say it to you now.
Bought some trousers, went to the toilet,
and I was in the loo changing my trousers on.
Oh, as a man signing CDs, you see that quite a lot in London, don't you?
Yeah.
You on my CD? Not really.
You strike me as the kind of guy who would easily be press-ganging to buying a hip-hop mixtape off the street.
Yeah, what do you want?
Has that happened to you yet?
It's completely free, but if I sign it, it's worth five dollars.
Is it?
Is it?
Because I don't know you from Adam.
Yeah.
And I put that CD in my machine,
it's just an AOL sign up CD.
AOL, yeah, dial up broadband starter kit.
But,
What were you saying about trousers, yeah?
Trousers, I was in the toilet,
and I was doing my business,
the business in this case was chasing some trousers, and a man was like banging on all of the cubicles going is
there is it flooded in there is it flooded in there and I was like and the
bloke next to me who was doing a shit he was like I'm doing a fucking shit
what the fuck you're bashing on my fucking door? I wanna know whether I'm doing, whether it's overflowing.
It's over, it ain't overflowing, my ass is on the toilet.
No, listen, he's really, he's very wound up.
And then, and then, yeah, and then I came out with,
no, no, mine isn't, mine's fine.
Sorry, sorry, sorry everyone.
Funny.
I'm doing the shit here.
I went to, one of the things you do realise about New York City
is that like,
even more so than London,
no one gives a shit
about you here.
Like if you don't,
if you walk into like a restaurant
or like a street food place
like I did the other night
and you haven't got your shit together,
they're not going to waste their time
asking you questions
or answering your bone questions.
Right.
They're just going to move on
to the next person.
Yeah.
I went to this tacos place and I'd never been in there before and it was all in Spanish.
And I literally just asked what's good and she rolled her eyes, like exhaled quite deeply.
It's fucking tacos.
Yeah. She just said this, this and this. I said yeah, fine, just give me that.
I find that New Yorkers,
I say to people who live here,
have very specific ideas about what makes a good taco, pizza.
They're big on...
Like, everyone's got a favourite pizza place.
Do you find it confusing?
Well, I don't really care about food anyway.
But the idea that any pizza would be any different to any other pizza...
I mean, if you're getting pizza wrong, any different to any other pizza, I mean,
if you're getting pizza wrong,
you shouldn't be allowed an oven in my opinion.
Oh,
I overheard Sam
and that Cooligans guy
last night
talking about
different types of flour
in pizza,
which markedly
affects the taste.
Which I'm sure is true,
I've got no reason
to doubt it.
But,
it's pretty full on
for like a bar conversation.
You know, normally it's like, whatppers do you like? Do you like thin crust or deep pan? And that's it.
Yeah. Went to the hockey on Monday night.
Oh yeah.
That was interesting.
Did you understand it?
Yeah, it was pretty standard stuff.
Did you follow the puck easily though?
Yeah, it was really standard stuff. Did you follow the puck easily, though? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. It was really bloody good.
American sport leaves me quite cold, like baseball and basketball and stuff.
But that was fun.
Yeah.
Real...
Was it the first hockey game you'd been to?
Yeah.
Like, you know, within ten seconds.
Well, within two minutes, you had two blocks of some scrap.
Yeah.
We've been separated.
Would you be happy... We're back together. Would you be happy for the hockey to just be abandoned and it just be fight blokes
fight?
Well.
Because I would recommend boxing.
I just.
The first thing you said is that within ten seconds there was a fight.
Yeah, but I just think that they've both got sticks.
Let's get a bit of that in there.
Yeah, you said to me.
Just start whacking the sticks around.
You said to me the other day when you, after you went, you said to me. Just start whacking the sticks around.
You said to me the other day, after you went,
you said, why are they just punching?
Why aren't they using their knife shoes?
Yeah, why don't they just go for the neck?
Open up someone's neck with a big old roundhouse kick.
That's a roundhouse kick, slice someone's head off.
Slice them.
Wow, look at that man's hair in there.
I think that looks like a wig.
Beautiful.
Yeah, that is an amazing haircut.
I hate to judge, but that's a trip.
He's probably got some comments about your hair.
My hair last night, there's something wrong with my silvercran hairspray nozzle,
which means that it comes out like glue.
Really thick glue.
Yeah, you touch the bottom of it and the whole thing moves.
Yeah, it's like a permafrost of hair.
Yeah, it is, very much so.
We went out last night, had a few drinks.
I'm sort of feeling it a little bit.
Oh, yeah, how much longer did you stay out after I went home?
I wasn't in the best of moods, even though we had an excellent show.
But, yeah, I still have quite a while.
Are you just tired?
Yeah, knackered.
Knackered.
Because I went home about midnight, I still have quite a while. Are we just tired? Yeah, knackered. Knackered.
Because I went home about midnight, I think.
And the problem is, like for example, tonight, tomorrow we've got a really early start, haven't we?
Yeah, that's unwelcome.
That's problematic, so I probably won't stay out tonight either.
What is it, half seven tomorrow?
Yeah.
We've got to get a flight to Toronto.
Yep, whistle stop tour. Yeah. I mean, from tomorrow morning onwards to Toronto. Yep, whistle-stop tour.
Yeah.
I mean, from tomorrow morning onwards,
our feet aren't really going to touch the ground between now and going home, are they?
No, that's why we're recording a Luke and Pete show.
Yeah, literally walking down the street in New York City.
I think people will like it.
It's an atmospheric look.
Yeah.
This is what we're going to be doing for the next two episodes.
Oh, look, Pele's got his own shop.
Yeah, let's go in The world's greatest soccer store.
Pele Soccer Store.
Oh, they're actually showing the Real Madrid game.
Somebody's punched the...
Is that live?
Would that be live?
Yeah.
Yeah, it is live.
It's live Champions League now.
Holy moly.
Someone smashed the screen there.
You love a football show.
You must be loving this.
It's a soccer store named after Pele selling sports apparel.
When we were in Manchester, the classic soccer shirt people, they said,
come round, we'll prepare some shirts for you, Pete.
How you doing?
And they did.
Look at that, new levels.
I don't even know what the hell that is, to be honest.
The right is Japanese, but I don't even know what the hell that is to be honest. The right is Japanese but I don't know whether it's...
I've got some interesting kits in here mate.
Look at that one.
New levels, Puma FC. It might be a concept kit or something.
Oh right.
It probably is, yeah.
Because Sam's got a couple of these kind of concepts.
Probably like an e-gamer's...
I love the idea of all the kind of football touch points.
I mean this is on the main street in New York City, Manhattan. Like, of all the kind of football touch points,
I mean this is on the main street in New York City,
Manhattan, it's called Pele.
It's like, so funny.
You like football, you love Pele.
Yeah.
In the 60s.
Any kid growing up now wouldn't have even heard of Pele.
That's nice.
It's basically just football shirts everywhere.
Guadalajara.
Guadalajara, yeah.
Actually, to be honest, they've got some bloody collection
there haven't they
it's great you can
come in here
in a sports shop
and watch a game
on the big screen
that's wicked
yeah it's about
but you can just
come here and sit
that is like
a massive screen
you'd never get this
in G&E Sports
in Oxford Circus
would you
or Sports Direct
or Sports Direct
no
do you reckon
Sports Direct
would pay for the rights
I don't think so I don't think so.
I don't think so somehow.
I'm very impressed with this.
YouTube.
Here's a Seattle Sounders top.
Pretty cool.
Look at that.
Look at that.
LAFC.
They're sponsored by YouTube TV.
Look at that shirt.
They won the support of Shield this year as well.
Yeah.
Amazing scenes. look at that shirt they won the support of Shield this year as well yeah amazing scenes
yeah we did
a show in
New York last
night which was
a lot of fun
we surprised
at how
well how many
people showed
up but also
how into it
they were
yeah I was
definitely
kind of
I mean for
those listening
who don't listen
to the football
rambler which
there's probably
about 10 of
you
I was kind of nervous about how those listening who don't listen to the football rambler which there's probably about 10 of you they
I was kind of nervous
about how well
the jokes would go over
but if anything
they were kind of
more into it
weren't they
I think if you
if you
if you really
like listen to a
football podcast
really dedicatedly here
you probably would
have to seek it out
you're probably
really into it
so yeah
so my more
disgusting material
went down badly
but I got them back round again.
Are you going to do it again tonight?
I'm going to do everything again tonight.
Don't be deterred.
I don't care.
Don't be deterred.
I will not let people change me.
What do you think of this, by the way, we're just walking across Tyres Square now.
What do you think of that Disney Plus thing and that Apple TV plus thing that's coming out people are saying people are saying game changer well um why though why is it again because
i think it's going to get to the point where there's so many different subscription services
yeah that people are going to have to start choosing and they're only going to choose the
best ones maybe i don't know yeah it wasn't it didn't like netflix it wasn't like netflix and
that's um made just for that reason so you'd have everything in one place on demand
Yeah, then all of the competing big companies decide no we're gonna have our own stuff
Yeah, I've heard some bad things about the old
runny
Yeah, it's a recent this food isn't it and Jennifer Aniston and Steve Carell are doing an Apple TV Plus morning show.
Yeah.
But it's been panned, hasn't it?
But that is everywhere here, isn't it?
Yeah.
You can't move.
Someone's done...
You know like with big appointments to watch
or appointments to play video games slash films
where they will get a guy who can paint huge things like huge murals yeah
they've done that to one of the buildings downtown in the flat iron
building and oh yeah yeah like right recent spoons not recently yeah recent
this one's face is like the size of like a football pitch it's massive and
someone's out there sat down and did that in my face is the size of a football
pitch anyway yeah so it's amazing.
I mean, it does seem a bit weird.
It seems a bit through the looking glass.
When I heard that Steve Carell was doing it,
I couldn't help think about his character in Anchorman.
Like how, and he looks exactly like,
obviously because he is Anchorman, Bricktown, man.
And the big billboard, it just looks weird.
Can you see, there's the poster over there.
That's Wethers I spell the left the morning
Oh, yeah. Yeah was so much in beginning that we're painting. Yeah. Look at this Lion King. It's like this kind of like
life-sized kind of statues of people who had been wicked and the Lion King and
It's actually quite chilly. Yeah
Transformer there as well mate sexy. Sexy American ladies and Elmore.
Oh, yeah.
Spider-Man.
He's seen better days.
Look at the Incredible Hulk.
There's lots of people dotted about, dressed up.
I don't know.
Trying to charge people for photos?
Is that what's happening?
Wesley is another naked cowboy man.
He's quite famous, isn't he?
Oh, is he around still?
Well, yeah.
He's been around for years.
If he stops, surely someone will take his man.
He's one of the classics, isn't he?
The naked cowboy.
I don't think I'm cut out to be the naked cowboy.
For the old basics.
So yeah, we're heading towards...
We're just basically walking towards a tube station
so we can jump on and
get ourselves to our second show of the run, Murmur, in Brooklyn.
What do you make of, by the way, what do you make of, because we're going to get to Subway
in a minute, you're a fan of the Subway here, aren't you? I think it's very confusing.
I think it's very clear, and also, there could be a bit more explanation about north and south
they all just sort of go oh this is going down to such-and-such a place the
bay or something you know is that north or south I don't know yeah but I think it's quite
clear but also I really like the fact that the carriages are massive but
there's just enough room for everybody and they're air-conditioned and they're
air-conditioned yeah and they just never seem to people just seem to have the freedom to work on lines and just allow the trains to just
get on with it yeah yeah and i think it runs 24 hours as well so this is like our leicester square
or our scramble crossing isn't it it is yeah it is I'd like to read a history of the New York City subway,
because in my mind,
do you remember when you used to watch those films in the 80s,
and some of them were set in the subway?
It would feel like the New York City subway was a no-go area.
You'd be mad.
You'd be taking your life into your own hands,
going down there at night on your own kind of thing.
I wonder if that is actually true.
I remember there were those angels that used to turn up,
and they looked like sexy gay superheroes.
They were like these sexy men with muscles.
And they would protect people?
Yeah.
I think there is a version of that in some American cities,
but they don't look quite as sexy and iconic.
They just look like old people who've retired.
Like a shit superhero, basically.
There's that Apple TV Plus
Jennifer Aniston advert.
They're going big,
Apple TV Plus.
They're going big.
No one can afford
to do all of them, man.
You know that twinge
that we got in our,
in that bit of our bum
that holds our ego
when we saw the football
ramble sign up in the
Gramercy Theatre?
Yeah.
Imagine seeing that. Imagine seeing that. Yeah, imagine seeing that.
Imagine seeing that.
Yeah.
Oh cool, it's like a little bit confusing.
You've got, erm, you've got Iron Man, you've got Captain America in his full camo gear.
You've got the Incredible Hulk.
And then Bumblebee from Transformers.
I wouldn't even know that was his name.
Just confusing, guys.
I would call him the yellow transformer.
That's what they should have called him in the film. And behind him there's a cement mixer who could be part of a gang we just don't know.
Yeah just dragging him around. Providing all the Avengers cement needs. Getting there for a change.
Watch out mate there's a bus. Whoa you need to move your trolley sir.
I mean the thing is, what they haven't realised here as well, is when they use their horn,
everyone here uses their horn so often, you kind of get desensitised to it.
So you're not going to move out of the way if someone beeps their horn.
It's like China or so, everyone's constantly got their hands on the honk.
Right, hands on the honk.
Oh look, Frozen have got their own stage show. Well done them!
Join the gang Frozen, join the party!
Yeah, they probably saw what we were doing at the Gramercy and thought, a bit more of
that.
You were very pleased to find out that in just a couple of short weeks time, Billy Corgan's
playing at the Gramercy as well.
I like Billy Corgan, he's a nice chap.
Yeah, you've, I mean it's surprising to hear that really.
You said he was nice when you interviewed him,
but I mean people would expect him to be,
after his work with the Smashing Pumpkins,
people would expect him to be a little bit of a Roman.
He shouldn't shake his hand, never shake his hand.
Why? I don't know, he's a very delicate man. He doesn't shake his hand. Never shake his hand. Why?
I don't know. He's a very delicate man.
He doesn't like when he's made of dust.
He's a bit of a germophile.
Oh is he really?
Yeah.
Germophobe, huh?
Yeah, yeah.
And also, when I was waiting to go on last night, there's a poster on the wall saying that recently Ghostface Killer had played the Gramercy as well.
Kind of made me feel pretty happy.
He shouldn't be broadcasting that he's Ghostface Killer.
Do you think it's interesting
that when you go to a new city
you don't know very well,
you automatically get sucked in
to these things
that you would never do in London?
Right.
The other night,
I bought something
for one of those little stands.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'd never do that in London,
like Leicester Square.
Why would you not do that?
If you want a bottle of water,
that's where you've got a bottle of water.
I bought a chilli dog earlier on
from the...
That's playing with fire.
From the shop near... You know where they keep all... Where they've got all those horses I bought a chili dog earlier on from the that's playing with fire from the
from the shop
you know where
they keep all
where they've got
all those horses
at this corner
centre of park
I thought you know what
you bought a chili dog
from there
that is taking your life
into your hands
ahead of a show mate
if you get explosive
diarrhea
on stage
that'll be a show
to remember
I'm telling you
I get sick
at like the weirdest
things like
if I eat too many
you know
good and plenties
for example
my body goes
Peter we talked about this
I'm going to give you a show
you're not going to forget
yeah
have you got your Gaviscon
I haven't got the Gaviscon
with me now
what do they have Gaviscon here
or is it something else
say again
do they have Gaviscon here
or is it something else
I don't know
I mean I should really
stock up on Zantac
I wonder if they've got
my brand of of hairspray.
Shall we go into CVS? I want to get some lip balm anyway.
Do you not get a little lip balm for your flight? Do they not give you a little packet with lip balm?
No, in Norway you don't even get any food unless you pay for it.
Is that right?
It's like a budget airline.
Cheeky little bugger.
I mean the plane's fine and everything but you don't really get much. The plane's fine. It's like a budget airline. Cheeky little bugger. I mean, the plane's fine and everything, but you don't really get much.
It's fine.
I'm just going to get a little bit.
It doesn't make crash or anything.
No.
No.
Wasn't Marcus sat next to a rather large person?
He was, yeah.
Oh dear.
He was indeed.
Oh dear.
Marcus is very broad, to be fair.
One of the other questions I always ask myself when I come to New York City is why do I always
feel like I'm in Ghostbusters?
Yeah, the hotel code felt very... The hotels never get updated do they?
Last time I was in America my friend was very upset.
Where's the lip balm? There's one by the register at the Trappistick but there's also more at Al27 next to the Irish.
By the register that's fine thank you. You've got to get the pro stuff though, you might get an ounce 27. It's the ice. By the register, that's fine. Thank you. You gotta get the pro stuff though.
Might get an iced tea.
Yeah.
We've now split up.
Luke's popped off.
To get himself some lip balm.
Are you gonna get some iced tea, Pete?
Unless Luke at the same time is also chatting.
This is really gonna mess with Katie,
who's gonna be editing this down.
Gonna be really messing with her. Oh who's gonna be editing this down.
Gonna be really messing with her.
Oh God, oh Jesus.
Oh dear, just knocking boxes over.
You got your balm, Luke?
Oh there you go.
No, because I need to get it by the register.
Are you getting iced tea or not?
Yeah.
Get an iced tea then and I'll get it.
I continued to talk and I was thinking,
no, because we're both talking at the same time.
Exactly.
It won't make any sense.
It won't work.
We'll just be talking over each other.
Because we've got this kind of very unique setup.
Look at the range of energy drinks.
The options of drinks are absolutely unbelievable here.
Pipeline punch.
And also, look at the size of the bottles.
Look at that, right?
That's a litre, but it's presented in a handheld kind of,
I'm just gonna neck this kind of case. Have you seen my hand, they're tiny. You know that when you That's a litre. But it's presented in a handheld kind of... I'm just going to neck this kind of...
Have you seen my hand?
They're tiny.
You know that when you get a litre bottle in the UK,
it's like, go and put that in the fridge.
Share it with your family.
This one's like, buy an orange vanilla Coke
and drink it all now.
I like it.
I'm all for it.
It's more just like that they make a feature.
I love big shops, CVSs like that. They've got these big fridges. of big shops cvs stuff like that they've got these
big fridges and they stack them from behind they stack them from behind they've got a whole cold
room at the back also what do you make a limitless energy what do you make of the fact this is a
this is a pharmacy yeah and you can buy a full fat coke and stuff in here you can buy full fat
coke but you can't buy it you can't that's basically tab clear what lemon clear lemon
and lime sprite oh it's just a bottle.
That's just a bottle.
Lemonade.
Lemonade Sprite.
I thought Sprite was lemonade.
It is, yeah.
Why the fucking about it?
This is like Nathan Barley as well,
like a boxed Tetra Pak water that looks like milk.
Yeah, I'll take it.
Yeah, pass that, I'll buy it,
because I'm gonna buy the lip balm as well.
Cheers, mate.
No worries.
I'm parched today.
Yeah, I am as well.
I had one too many beers last night.
Oh Slim Jim's, nice.
So you don't know what time you ended up staggering home last night then?
It wasn't too bad, like 2 o'clock I think.
Me and Spellsie on the town.
Jim's about missing.
Yeah I know.
I'm worried about Jim.
Spellsie tying one on as well was he?
Amazing.
Yes, where's the lip balm?
Lil Key, look at this mate. Lil Key, look.
Here.
There's a lady that was by the register.
It's over there, is it?
Yeah, look, there's lips.
Lips, there's lips.
Yeah, I need some lip balm, please.
There's some by the register.
No, that's what the last lady said.
No, he's saying it's not.
Lips.
Oh, it's here?
Yeah.
Oh, perfect, cool.
That's fine.
That's not lip balm.
That's like gel.
It says jelly bounce lip balm.
What the hell?
I don't want jelly bounce.
I just want a little stick.

But they've used the light of the fridge for the backlight for the LED screen.
A Red Bull TV fridge.

Can anything be more Jamie Vardy than that?
I'll try and just go self-service.

Pete
I think we can both
agree that we hope
we've given our listeners
a flavour
of walking down
one street
in New York City
talking absolute shit
on one man's question by lip balm.
If you're stuck in your house,
maybe you've broken your leg,
maybe you're just feeling a bit down about things,
we are giving you those wings.
Yes, we are.
We are giving you flight.
This is almost as good as actually coming to New York
for these listeners, I reckon.
Don't even bother getting on that $300 Norwegian flight.
$300?
No wonder they put me on Norwegian.
Did you fly Norwegian? No.300? No wonder they put me on Norwegian. Did you fly Norwegian?
No, VA?
Virgin.
Did you?
Virgin, baby.
You got a Virgin, what?
And you just asked them to put you on Virgin instead,
and they did?
No, but no, I did what I usually do.
Oh, you paid for it yourself?
Just spent all the money for no bloody reason.
Well, at least you admit it.
At least I admit it.
