Starting point is 00:00:00 don't think i wasn't listening pete donaldson here on the luke and pete show back for another week i've been away for a couple of weeks you've had a boy who likes food and a boy who likes YouTube. And you, my friend, Luke, have been really, really playing up with your new friend. Really playing up with your new friends. I'm a boy who likes food more than anyone. Being a silly boy, slating me, something chronic. I've been listening. You're in trouble. It became a bit of a retrospective on Pete Donson, the man.
Starting point is 00:00:41 A little review. Yeah. With one man who knows me fairly well and one man I think I've seen, you know, a few times in my life. Oh,
Starting point is 00:00:49 I think, there was definitely a, there was definitely a, I felt sorry for Jack having to review a man who, you know, we are acquaintances
Starting point is 00:00:55 more than friends, I would say. I like him a lot, but, there was, there was definitely an element with Jack for the first five minutes
Starting point is 00:01:01 or so where he didn't really feel comfortable slagging you off, but we warmed into it. He warmed into the task. I said don't worry about it Jack it'll
Starting point is 00:01:06 be fine. Don't worry. He's seen me play football. Yeah. Has he really? Yeah I've played a couple of matches
Starting point is 00:01:12 with him. Jack any good? Jack's excellent. I'm terrible. Yeah I know what you're like. I'm just asking what Jack's like.
Starting point is 00:01:17 I know what you're like. That's why my neck hurts. I've really hurt my neck Luke. Ow! So let's let people
Starting point is 00:01:22 behind the curtain. Ow! I was about to say let's ease them back in but obviously you're not going to let us do that let's ease them back in to having a Pete Donson back on the show again
Starting point is 00:01:30 something we should all be celebrating you sent me a message last night it was a photo of you lying down in front of your TV on your back with one eye closed
Starting point is 00:01:38 and it just said I've hurt my neck and I can't move I was watching I think Arsenal were 3-0 up at the time against Newcastle United and I was lying on the floor I can't move. I was watching, I think, Arsenal were 3-0 up at the time against Newcastle United, and I was lying on the floor.
Starting point is 00:01:47 Oh, I woke up at 7, fine. Went back to sleep, woke up at 8, agony. Right. I think someone got to me. Yeah, maybe they got to you in your sleep. Someone got to me in my sleep. How are you finding your routine now? I've got a wry neck.
Starting point is 00:02:00 I'm back. My jet lag was fine in the end, so everything's fine. Everything's cool. Is the next thing affected, do you think, was it brought on by our line bike adventure? Could be. We had a meeting somewhere at two o'clock,
Starting point is 00:02:15 was it? It was at 1.30 and we thought it was 2.30. I say we, I told you it was 2.30 because I looked at it mistakenly and this is not a reflection on you at all, but it does give people an insight into what you're like.
Starting point is 00:02:27 You just didn't bother checking. You just trusted me. No, because... Yeah, I didn't check. Well, why would I need to check a person who's really, really good at that sort of thing? The day I start checking
Starting point is 00:02:36 is the day I'd waste lots of time. The day we've lost our trust in this relationship. Yeah. Anyway, I made a mistake anyway. Yeah, but I was checking my calendar when I was in Tokyo and that is a fool's errand if you're ever in a mistake anyway. But I was checking my calendar when I was in Tokyo, and that is a fool's errand if you're ever in a different time zone
Starting point is 00:02:48 and you're checking your calendar to see what you've got on. It's a nightmare. You don't know when things are happening. It goes across days. Why am I having a meet at 3 a.m. with someone in London? It's confusing. So we're in the office, and we have to be somewhere that is around about 45 minutes away.
Starting point is 00:03:06 Nah. Nah. What do you mean? Probably half an hour. Probably half an hour at a canter, I would say. You've got a bit of a pace. A bit of a pace, yeah. If the stars align for you, it's half an hour.
Starting point is 00:03:15 Yeah, exactly. But you'd give yourself 45 minutes minimum for that kind of trip. So part of that is a 10-minute walk to the train station. So we had to get out of the office as quick as we could. We weren't going to make it office as quick as we could. We weren't going to make it on time, but we could have limited the damage. And then we got outside the office.
Starting point is 00:03:31 Pete found a line bike. Now, for those outside of London or New York or whatever, it's a bike that you can leave anywhere. Then with an app, you can unlock it, and you can ride it and drop it off where you want to drop it off. You can take photos and use your app, don't you, and stuff like that. Pete said to me,
Starting point is 00:03:48 I can get two of these on this app. You get on this one, and I'll get on that one because there was luckily two out there. It was very serendipitous. When I got on one, though, you started going mental. I can't get another one. I can't get the next one. I can't get a group ride. I can only get one. I can only unlock one at one time.
Starting point is 00:04:04 We were forced, ladies and gentlemen, to commandeer one electric or hybrid bike, push bike together. Me sat on the back on the bumpy battery. It was not a dignified image.
Starting point is 00:04:19 It was one of the funniest things I've ever done. It took us back to when we cared about each other, I think. It was quite playful, wasn't it? It was, with you it took us back to when we cared about each other I think yeah it was it was quite playful wasn't it it was yeah it took us back to like
Starting point is 00:04:28 us dicking about yeah 10 years ago because you were starting our relationship you were in quite a lot of pain the whole situation was ridiculous yeah
Starting point is 00:04:35 people were looking at us you kept saying to me don't go over speed bumps because it's too painful I can't not go over speed bumps well just tell me when the speed bumps are coming and it was agonising
Starting point is 00:04:44 absolutely agonizing. And my hands were under your bum. Yeah, they were. Yeah, yeah. And that damaged my hands. And then we made it to the meeting. We were about 10 minutes late. And you almost had an asthma attack because you were so tired.
Starting point is 00:04:56 And we were out of breath. And it wasn't the most dignified. No. But the whole thing is cool is probably what's causing your neck to be painful now it's probably all speed bumps
Starting point is 00:05:08 do you reckon that's related to your neck you've probably compressed my neck in some way got a compressed spine it's probably the football I played
Starting point is 00:05:14 on Saturday a big boy we played seven a side big boy about as tall as you and ten times as wide as you
Starting point is 00:05:21 stood on my foot with studs and there's no escaping from stud abuse really. And it's like, seven aside mate, why are you wearing big old studs? Stupid. So I've hurt my
Starting point is 00:05:36 hands under your bum and I've hurt my neck under your steam and I've hurt my foot under a big boy's You're a walking wounded today. I'm a walking wounded. How was your
Starting point is 00:05:48 I was so smooth getting back into civvy life after my trip away. Oh, I got you a present. Oh, thanks. I was about to ask how you thought they was
Starting point is 00:05:58 but you got me a present. I was in Niigata which is famous for a brewery. There's a brewery Saki Brewery there and I was in there and do you know what a gachapon machine is?y. There's a brewery, Saki Brewery there. And I was in there. Do you know what a gachapon machine is?
Starting point is 00:06:08 No. It's a capsule machine. It's like an old school. In this country, you'd buy a bouncy ball from it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Put 20p in. Twist it around, yeah. Comes out.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Very big in Japan, but they're all kind of one-off, kind of short-run silicon or plastic toys. Right. All right, so they're quite creative. It's quite artistic but it's just plastic tat anyway they had one of these machines in uh a brewery and i said this is i'm gonna i'm gonna put um 100 i think it's like 300 yen i'm gonna put 300 yen in about 2.50 and you have the chance of winning either a big bottle of sake um some tinned goods, some byproducts from sake,
Starting point is 00:06:47 this kind of like mealy thing that you can put into soups and stuff, or a really cheap plastic sake glass. Okay. So I said to myself, whatever comes out, Luke is going to get. And Luke, you've received a really cheap piece of plastic that you can drink sake from.
Starting point is 00:07:08 When you said that there, I thought, oh my God, I might have got the bottle of sake. That would be brilliant. Well, let's have a look. You can buy your own
Starting point is 00:07:13 bottle of sake. It's like a cube. It's completely square. It's like a little, yeah, that's how you drink. So I imagine the sake glass to be like a little shot glass or something.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Yeah, so some of them are round, some of them are square. So there you go. Oh, that's cool. I like it. I'll take a photo of it for the listeners. The Winstagram.
Starting point is 00:07:29 It says Emaio Sucasa on it. Cool. Sucasa means your house in Spanish. It's spelled differently. Sucasa means, well, casa means umbrella in Japanese. Does it? Thank you very much, Peter. I'm very touched.
Starting point is 00:07:41 I think that might be the first time you've bought me a present back from your holiday. It's more just I don't remember things did you have a nice time it's good uh went to the snore festival that was fun went to um i sort of felt like i'd done nothing right throughout the holiday because i'd kind of slept for there was a good couple of days where i'd slept all day and it was lovely but i was very much kind of waking up at 5 p.m going oh i've wasted it haven't i so you have to live by night in the shadows like Batman. A nighttime economy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Is that what you were doing? You were going out all night? No, I was going out, taking some pictures. I enjoyed taking the odd pic. But then the last two days, I hooked up with Chris Broad, who does the Broad and Japan podcast that I do on the Stakhanov Network. And he took me. He was doing some filming with some seaweed farmers. Right. So we went out. Cool. We went out on doing some filming with some seaweed farmers.
Starting point is 00:08:25 Right, cool. So we went out on the high seas with some seaweed farmers. Oh yeah, you sent pictures back. It was pretty exciting. It's just these men who go out at like seven in the morning. I mean, I'm thinking, you could do this any time. Like the seaweed's just there, isn't it? Yeah, what's the reason for fishermen and seaweed farmers to go out so early?
Starting point is 00:08:43 Just markets, got to get to market. Oh, there we go, of course. But with some of the seaweed, they take it back immediately and boil it. of a fisherman and seaweed farmers to go out so early just market got to get to market fresh in it just get it so but with some of the seaweed they take it back immediately and boil it and send it to the supermarket but the rest of the seaweed
Starting point is 00:08:53 it goes straight and fresh to the restaurants that they own so they've got this kind of like holistic approach to they own a couple of
Starting point is 00:08:59 they own a couple of restaurants in Shinjuku and so this seaweed I mean it's not the main constituent of a meal but obviously in Shinjuku. And so this seaweed, I mean, it's not the main constituent of a meal, but obviously in Japanese food and Japanese culture, it's quite important.
Starting point is 00:09:14 They take the seaweed and it's served up the same day in Tokyo, even though it's like two hours away. That's cool. Did you get to taste some? It was really good. Yeah, it just stood out of the thing. It was like really fresh and delicious. And it was just amazing seeing, just being completely emasculated by some
Starting point is 00:09:25 rugged older men you know 60 year old met blocks who've been farming seaweed for years it happens a lot out on the sea
Starting point is 00:09:33 that kind of stuff when you do our job doesn't it you come into contact with anyone practical especially football side as well like men who
Starting point is 00:09:39 tend the grass at like Romford or something you're like you've got a proper job so I think I'm probably robust enough at least outwardly who tend the grass at like, uh, Romford or something. You're like, Oh, you've got a proper job. They've got a good, so I think I'm, I'm probably robust enough at least outwardly to kind of a very,
Starting point is 00:09:51 very basic level. Them not to be openly sort of disdainful of me. Right. Okay. But, um, they always, that thing,
Starting point is 00:09:58 they kind of look at you like that. Side you up. And think, I think, can he, I mean, I look at his hands, but I remember when,
Starting point is 00:10:03 I remember when, um, you know, my granddad occasionally will touch my hand or shake his hand or whatever touch my hand well you shake his hand
Starting point is 00:10:10 or whatever he'll have a little chuckle at how soft my hands are I think he just thinks I've never done a day's work in my life which I probably haven't by his standards
Starting point is 00:10:17 people have gloves now he was in the war yeah I know that's the thing when I go to the supermarket and I see people stacking the shelves particularly in the
Starting point is 00:10:23 chilled department they've always got gloves on I was never given gloves when I was doing that job. an entire factory. But then there was a deep freeze section as well and these men would be wearing massive romper suits and big gloves and balaclavas and stuff
Starting point is 00:10:48 and they'd be order picking for the really fresh fish and stuff like that. There was frozen stuff like that. But yeah, a proper job, so to speak. I also went to a building in the middle of nowhere
Starting point is 00:11:01 that was in one of the main areas that were affected by the tsunami in 2011, I think it was. The Boxing Day one? The one that affected Thailand and the rest of it? No, no, no. The one that killed like...
Starting point is 00:11:17 Oh, the Fukushima one? Yeah, yeah, Fukushima. Okay, sure. There was a five-star... Basically, they were terraforming the whole area. This whole area was owned by this hotel, they were terraforming the whole area. This whole area was owned by this hotel. They were terraforming the whole area to make it something like 10 feet, 12...
Starting point is 00:11:32 Sorry, 10 meters, 12 meters higher than it actually was. So they're spending all this money. They're bringing all this money to terraform it. But then in the middle, they had this building that was a bit of an outpost. It's this old kind of wedding venue and function room, basically. It's this building that sort of stands alone, and it's a wreck. It's an absolute wreck.
Starting point is 00:11:54 It's in bits. Yeah. But it's five stories high, and it saved something like 270 or 320 people. something like 270 or 320 people cool and it was like basically the the waters obviously raised so high on the day that the actual um tsunami happened um there was a function on it was like something like 300 um elderly people in in this in this building having some kind of function it was a birthday like 50th 60th birthday or. And when the water started rolling in, the manager, who was like an ex-fisherman, he was like, nobody leave because you're going to die. And he prevented, with security staff,
Starting point is 00:12:34 prevented these elderly people from escaping from this building and made them go onto the roof. And the water got so high, five, six stories high, that it was just about, it was up to their knees still on the roof, but he managed to save something like 300 people and two dogs. Wow. And from all of this water.
Starting point is 00:12:54 And I think it was two or three people, I think four people escaped and two of them died. So it was like this kind of very remote area. There wasn't much going on. And also, this this building's been left to to rack and ruin but just as like a testament like a to sort of say this building saved a lot of people and it and it is and i love to abandon buildings i love anything that's like where nature has taken over a little bit but just going around and just seeing punch cards and
Starting point is 00:13:19 pencils and um a shrine that's completely uh the only thing that seemed to be intact in this wreck of a building all the wallpapers off all the toilets are smashed everything's a bit because like you know obviously all the rubble and the cars like smashed into the building and stuff everything's wrecked apart from this wooden shrine and obviously like japanese um wood um like the joints and stuff are really technical and stuff so they're quite they're quite solid and it was the only thing that really survived in the whole thing. But this, it's weird seeing this kind of like the faded glamour of this wedding venue
Starting point is 00:13:50 with the lifts and the, and then the kind of the cameras and stuff they used to have and stuff. It's just been taken over by bats. There's lots of like little bats everywhere. How did you find out about the building? Chris has a business partner who, who basically he gets gets he has a relationship with different prefectures who want to advertise the fact that that you know you can come to this
Starting point is 00:14:11 area and have a look around and see it's almost like a museum to what happened also like one of the fishermen who we went out with with to collect the seaweed he was out at sea when the tsunami hit and so he just had to so he just had to stay out he stayed out what it swelled underneath him yeah and so obviously it didn't break where he was
Starting point is 00:14:29 so it just swelled underneath him and he just stayed out for like a day and a half and then came back in so you knew what was happening can you imagine
Starting point is 00:14:36 what he came back to crazy yeah it's crazy Pete were they fairly fortunate that the building itself was able to stay yeah massively
Starting point is 00:14:44 there's a gamble from that guy basically nothing the best chance we have massively. I mean, it was a gamble from that guy, basically. Yeah, there was, but the best chance we have is to stay here. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:14:48 it was a cement building. So like, compared to everything else that just got, you know, all the wooden buildings and splaps, absolutely smashed,
Starting point is 00:14:54 smashed to pieces. But they were very, very lucky. There was a school nearby where I think the, the, sadly, the,
Starting point is 00:15:00 every kid died. Like every, the, the, the teachers took them onto a fucking bridge and obviously you know in that situation
Starting point is 00:15:07 you don't know what the fuck to do but instead of taking them to the roof they took them to the bridge and 300 kids died it was like it was just insane awful
Starting point is 00:15:14 and you saw and obviously you saw that school just sits there now and it's just like and I was like have they not like rebuilt it all you know
Starting point is 00:15:22 and he said in re-autorise his friend just said, there are no kids here because they all fucking died. And it's like, wow, Jesus. That's crazy. And that's, you know, what was that? Nine years, you know, nine odd years ago.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Yeah, it does make you think. All right, Pete, let's have a quick little break. And when we get back, we'll do some emails from our lovely listeners. It's great to have you back, my friend. Gentlemen, this is Democracy Manifest. A man trying to avoid paying for a delicious Chinese meal there Yeah
Starting point is 00:15:48 Yeah What is that? What's happened to him? Should I do a Google News search of Julian Assange? I've been with him for ages What's he been up to? It's a bit of a
Starting point is 00:15:57 retro Luke and Pete Shaw Yeah reference isn't it really? There's not much going on He's not really doing much He's been quiet has he he's quieter than he was when he was in the
Starting point is 00:16:07 in the embassy yeah he is he is he's on the lam now to be honest I can't I'm not going to do a deep dive in the sand
Starting point is 00:16:13 live in the studio not live in the studio Terry Miles has emailed in oh do you want to do the subject first I was just going to say that Boise from Annie Falls North
Starting point is 00:16:22 do you need me to bring up Boise played by John Chalice is giving an interview to the Irish News last weekend. Also elsewhere in Worcester
Starting point is 00:16:31 there was a quiz night that raised money for a village hall themed around Only Fools and Horses, Pete. I'll try and tell you in advance next time so you can attend.
Starting point is 00:16:42 Hello at LukeandPete.com is the email address to get in touch with us. We also have some tweets this week as well. Do you want to do emails or do you want to do homework first? It's up to you.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Question three. It was a chandelier. Let's do homework first. Homework was set by the inimitable Jack Dean. And it was a really good idea. He said, text your parents or grandparents
Starting point is 00:17:02 and ask them what they think the worst thing is about you. Most of these responses have come in the form of tweets so i'll read a few of them out now and pete presumably you spoke to your parents as well i texted my parents yeah do yours at the end then um because that'll be that'll be the highlight main event because everyone here listens is very familiar with your your parents and your relationship with them michelle got in touch and said uh and she's just posted the response from her mother, which is the following. Your potty mouth.
Starting point is 00:17:29 I don't like it when you swear. It makes me sad. It's not ladylike. I mean, raised you better than that. You swear like a sailor. And I know because both my brothers were in the Navy. It's good.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Well, then she should understand. Nibi got in touch and said, my parents said that I'm able to sleep through almost anything. I've slept through two to three big earthquakes, and it always brought them trouble when they realized I'm not awake. What else here? Finicky Fox on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:17:58 He's posted a screenshot. He or she has posted a screenshot of the conversation with their mother, saying, mum, what's my worst trait? And she just replies saying, listening. Which is weird. That's fair. Which means not listening. Yeah, not listening, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:12 And Tom's been in touch, whose mother is called Susan. I know that because he's posted the screenshot of the phone text conversation as well. And Susan's just replied with, pernickety. Oh! Pernickety. Pernickety, yeah. That's usually what you would say about your parents rather than the offspring, pernickety.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Yeah, I don't really think it's a word you hear much anymore. No. Very much. Might be of lemony snicket. My mum said that I knew what she was going to say and I sent it to Jack last week and I knew she'd say it to the point where I almost didn't need to send it. She said that I don't call her enough
Starting point is 00:18:45 right okay but I speak to her like twice a week which I think is fair enough yeah that is fair enough for a man of 39 that's fair enough I ring
Starting point is 00:18:53 yeah I ring my mum weekly if not twice a week so have a bit of that ma'am yeah I asked that question
Starting point is 00:19:02 to the family group my mum replied a total lack of self-awareness. I said, thanks, ma'am. Could you go further? She said, you have a self-destructive need to erect barriers after you've been emotionally damaged by someone being nasty at the checkout at Lidl when all you really need is a cuddle.
Starting point is 00:19:22 And I said, where's that come from? I don't think I've been to Lidl in the last 10 years. And my mum came back with, dad was answering you with my phone. My dad was being a little prick. That's amazing. I don't know what the self-destructive need to wreck barriers after you've been in a martial law.
Starting point is 00:19:39 I mean, he's talking, he doesn't know me and it doesn't make any sense. So I think you're just being, I think you'd be in the pub, to be honest. If we're completely honest with ourselves. It was 5pm on a Sunday. I was too scared to do it in the WhatsApp family group. Because I think my sister would have piled in. Piled in.
Starting point is 00:19:54 Yeah. But Pete, I think that, I find it curious because you are someone who I find impossible to predict. So I don't, I think it does keep me interested. I think the reason I've worked with you for so long is because even if we have a boring admin issue to sort or a business decision to make, I can never really know what your opinion is going to be on it until I see you and speak to you about it.
Starting point is 00:20:20 So I find that quite interesting. It's like jazz, isn't it? Whereas to a family member, that might be quite unsettling. It's like jazz. You're find that quite interesting. It's like jazz, isn't it? Whereas to a family member that might be quite unsettling. It's like jazz. You're like a jazz colleague. Well, I mean, they're lucky that they will, I mean,
Starting point is 00:20:31 they're probably wondering about how I'm going to bury them. It's going to be spectacular. How are you going to do it? Feed them into a wood chipper. No. Oh.
Starting point is 00:20:39 I think there's laws around that. I think you've got to dispose of the body in a legally permissible way. Now, surely if you write a note saying I want to be you know
Starting point is 00:20:46 eaten by pigs you're allowed to do that no? yes? maybe? I don't think so I think you get I think sometimes
Starting point is 00:20:53 when you have people who for example don't report the death of a relative or something yeah you get in trouble for that
Starting point is 00:21:00 but not enough trouble I always think you don't get in enough trouble for that behaviour I don't think. But surely you can't... I know it's a disrespectful thing to do and it is a crime, but it can't be as bad as doing something to someone who's still alive. It doesn't affect them as much.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Oh, yeah, exactly. I've said it before, I do whatever you want with me when I die. Not you. No, I've already made a note of that. You know when you say half a lime? You know, when you say like half a lime, um, you know, like you chop the top of a lime,
Starting point is 00:21:28 right? Yeah. To access the juice within. Yeah. Um, and it falls on the floor. I've seen a couple of times in the street. So just the top of a lime,
Starting point is 00:21:37 you know, little, little nib, little nib of a, of a lime will be like on the floor. Yeah. I know what you mean. So if it was a bit more, if I was a bit more
Starting point is 00:21:45 for the whimsically minded you sort of think, there's a whole lime sticking out of the cement. Like there's a lime in the cement. Imagine just someone's face just poking out and just left to weather the elements. Do you know what I think when you ever say stuff like that?
Starting point is 00:22:02 When you say, when you get like really weird flights of fancy like that and it happens regularly, the first thing I think and I can't stuff like that, when you say, when you get like really weird flights of fancy like that, and it happens regularly, the first thing I think, and I can't stop myself is, it must have happened at some point. There's nothing new under the sun, right? It must have happened at some point.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Everything that, I'm not suggesting like, obviously this podcast has happened before, because podcasts are a new thing, but like little situations that happen to human beings must have happened to everyone. Anything can happen to you, must have happened to everyone. Anything that can happen to you must have happened to someone before.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Well, you know when they've done that thing where they scan the human body, where they've taken a donated body, frozen it in water or some kind of solution, and then taken off thin strips, thin, thin slices, like, you know, microscopic slices. Like Gunter von Hagens does in his body world.
Starting point is 00:22:44 A little bit, yeah, but like slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, and scanned, taking a picture of every slice. They do that with the brain, don't they? Yeah, so you can do a wonderful kind of little cross-section of, I mean, you can do it, like, obviously with, like, telemetry or something. What's that thing, like, kind of ultrasound? You can do it now with ultrasound.
Starting point is 00:23:00 But, like, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, to get a cross-section of how the body sort of fits together. It's this wonderful kind of, like, oo. But like slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice to get a cross section of how the body sort of fits together. It's this wonderful kind of like oozing kind of animation. Almost like it looks like a fractal. So yeah, just half the head. Take my head off. Take like a good diagonal kind of cross section, like freeze it and then take a good diagonal cross section
Starting point is 00:23:20 and then put that diagonal cross section on a paving slab. And then people will be like how's that happened this is like that man's come from another dimension like a portal or something
Starting point is 00:23:32 this is like a radio phone that Alan Partridge literally did on one of his shows that guy emails in what more do you want that guy rings in and says he'd like to be buried
Starting point is 00:23:39 in a satin lion's coffin with a pair of page three stunners they're still alive he says and then he goes oh no I'm not going to
Starting point is 00:23:47 finish that bit so you'd like to be disposed by having slices of your body displayed just in different parts of London do you reckon
Starting point is 00:23:55 there's just an arm hanging out of a bit of trellis there's Donny there's a bit of Donny because around Soho you can find the noses can't you
Starting point is 00:24:03 there's like noses on the wall it's the Soho noses just bits of noses, can't you? There's like noses on the wall. Yes. It's the Soho noses. Just bits of me just hanging out. It's what you would have wanted. It's what you spent most of your time. But you know,
Starting point is 00:24:13 clearly to go into that part, that kind of part of science, that part of medical research... Freezing shit and slicing it. Yeah, you probably got me a bit weird, right? So do you reckon when the guy who passed down the news to the guys, the Association of... I don't know what they're called, but the Association of People that Slice Up Bodies After They're Dead. you probably got me a bit weird, right? So do you reckon when the guy who passed down the news to the guys,
Starting point is 00:24:27 the association of people, I don't know what they're called, but the association of people that slice up bodies after they're dead, it's called that. The Freezy Slicers. Yeah. Like the Piggy Blinders.
Starting point is 00:24:33 The Freezy Slicers Association. The FSA. Yeah. The big swinger comes down and says, good news everyone. Yeah. It's brilliant because
Starting point is 00:24:41 we don't have to desecrate anyone's body anymore because we can all do it on our computers do you reckon like all 300 of the freezy slices just looked at each other and went
Starting point is 00:24:48 fuck gutted or 300 of them how many are there gutted absolutely gutted but it's a bit rich because they've done
Starting point is 00:24:57 all the gutting yeah they are yeah you'd have to I'd have to perform it myself now and they'll cut myself have you seen
Starting point is 00:25:03 have you started watching the new series of Inside No. 9? No, I haven't, no. I don't think I've ever seen... I think I've seen two episodes of Inside No. 9 and everyone says it's brilliant and I never watch it. It is good. The most recent series,
Starting point is 00:25:15 I don't think it's been the strongest so far or anything, but it's still very, very watchable. And the second episode of the series that's on at the moment takes into account things like disposing of bodies and all that kind of stuff. There's a lovely documentary about a man who was accused of murder on Netflix and
Starting point is 00:25:34 he gets off in a small part due to the fact that curbing enthusiasm happened to the film. I saw it. Did you watch it? I've seen it, yeah. It's good, isn't it? It's really good. It just comes out of nowhere. Larry Day was just there and he's like, the fuck? Do you know what I like about it? One episode, 40 minutes it? I've seen it, yeah. It's good, isn't it? It's really good. It just comes out of nowhere. Larry Day was just there and he's like, the fuck?
Starting point is 00:25:47 Do you know what I like about it? One episode, 40 minutes, no mucking about it. Done. Done, isn't it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:50 Really simple, really cheap, just facials, facial shots, so to speak. Yeah. This is a weird I wonder where you're going with it, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:59 And archive footage from the Kirby enthusiasm rushes and then done, 40 minutes. Three years ago, that would have been 10 episodes. I know. I know. You only would have found out about Larry in about episode nine.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Yeah. Yeah. Crazy. It was very good. We should be doing a couple of other emails, Pete. Yeah. Do you want one from Terry Miles? I would love one from Terry.
Starting point is 00:26:19 Evening. In my parents' garden in Kent, I found a large amount of cattle bones. In one place. All right. And a a large amount of cattle bones in one place. All right. And a shopping basket full of empty packets of foodstuffs from the 70s. I guess it was from the 70s. I didn't recognize any of it, and this happened in the 80s. So there we go.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Listen to, you should watch the new series of True Detective now. No one knew who did it. Terry sounds like he's about our age. Yeah. Maybe a bit older. Are there people now being born called Terry? When was the last time you
Starting point is 00:26:48 met a friend who had a baby and said Terry. There's no Terry. No one's calling their
Starting point is 00:26:57 baby Terrence. No. Terry. Terry probably. Get in touch. Hello at LukeandPetra.com. Do you know
Starting point is 00:27:03 a Terry younger than 15? With the youngest Terry, Nigel, Colin, or John. Male Terry, not female Terry. Not T-E-R-R-I. No, absolutely not. Good to know that cattle bones are being found in Kent. And we also have an email here from
Starting point is 00:27:25 Mark. Hi, Mark. He says... Oh, hi, Mark. I read this last week. I don't think I did. This is a follow-up to Sam's
Starting point is 00:27:34 scrambled eggs technique. Do you want to tell us your... Do you want to veil us of your scrambled eggs technique before I do it? Butter, salt, splash... Do I put a splash of milk in there? I think I put a splash of milk in there. Never put milk in there. Or cream. butter salt splash
Starting point is 00:27:45 do I put a splash of milk in there I think I put a splash of milk in there never put milk in there or cream if I've got a bit of creme fraiche or something maybe a bit of that yeah just something
Starting point is 00:27:53 give it a bit of big Gordon Ramsay big Gordon Ramsay puts creme fraiche at the end to stop it cooking to cool it down he was on Hot Ones have you seen his episode
Starting point is 00:28:01 of Hot Ones everyone seems to be talking about his episode of Hot Ones when it came out like a year ago. Nah, it came out last month, I think. Nah. It didn't. I saw it like a year ago.
Starting point is 00:28:12 He drinks loads of fucking Pepto-Bismol, doesn't he? Yeah. That came out years ago, but he just constantly gone... Have you still got that Google News alert for Pepto-Bismol? Is that how you saw it? Is that how you saw it? Anyway, he does scrambled eggs in it, and he does saw it. That's how you saw it. Anyway, he does scrambled eggs in it
Starting point is 00:28:26 and he does a bit of creme fraiche in it. Anyway, Mark has been in touch and he says, I was listening to the show when Sam was guest appearing and I almost got triggered
Starting point is 00:28:34 at the section on scrambled eggs. I'm 31, I'm married with kids, secure job, et cetera, and by far in the things I thought I had down in life so far was scrambled eggs.
Starting point is 00:28:42 When two jokers then proceeded to tell me I'd been ruining them by over scrambling them, it was met by a hearty snort of derision. Not being one to shy away from trying a new experience is I've just had my morning eggs and I thought I'd try the folding method.
Starting point is 00:28:57 I started with Sam's first stage winner of three eggs to one slice of toast ratio, whisked the eggs in a mug, buttered in the pan, and started to gently fold. One word, gentlemen, converted. Yay! The eggs tasted better, looked better, the texture was better. It was an absolute revelation. It just goes to show that every day is a school day, love the show, keep up the good work. P.S. If this gets read out, this will be my third email read out on the show my brother has emailed him a few times
Starting point is 00:29:25 and not had a single shout out if this makes the cut if you wouldn't mind a note of Mark 3 James 0 that would go a long way to rub it in a little more
Starting point is 00:29:35 it's butter time baby yeah I would never put milk in there I just wouldn't just a splash give it a full fat creamy just something to give it
Starting point is 00:29:43 a creamy cream deadens the flavour in my view. Deadens the flavour. And apparently Big Gordon only puts salt in at the end because he says the salt can make the eggs... Makes the protein harden. There we go.
Starting point is 00:29:57 Yeah, good news. Yeah, good news all round. Alright Peter, that's probably about enough time. Welcome back, it's been great to have you back. Sorry. People will hear from you again on Thursday.
Starting point is 00:30:05 I did have an email waiting about chlamydia, but I'm going to read that one out. Sounds like you're looking forward to it. Looking forward to it, isn't it? Yeah.
