Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the Luke and Pete show! I'm here, my name's Pete Donaldson. Luke Moore is also here. And Luke Moore did not tell me I had a spot on my nose. Ah, yes. I'll give it a little squeeze, it's alright now. I am Luke in this foul jamboree and the spot on the nose thing
Starting point is 00:00:27 is that I find it difficult because I didn't actually notice that one right okay fair do but if I did notice it see I'm someone who does
Starting point is 00:00:34 like to be told these things if I've got something in my teeth yeah food gets caught in your teeth a lot more as you get older it's just a fact of life I would prefer to be told about it
Starting point is 00:00:42 and I regularly say to my wife I can't believe you've let me sit there in X event with a piece of whatever it is, pepper. In my eyeball. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:53 Can't believe it. I can't believe you've let me sit there with a massive lamb chop on my head and not said anything. An entire turbot. She always says the same thing. Oh, I didn't see it. Shut up.
Starting point is 00:01:03 Liar. You just didn't want to say anything. Do say something. I don't like to look at your visage, Mr. Moore, she says. That's fair enough. So I didn't see your spot, but if I'd seen it,
Starting point is 00:01:11 I would have probably taken the mickey out of you. Wow, what a humdinger that is. Yeah. I'd like to thank the man who works for American Airlines in Houston, I do believe, who was at the counter
Starting point is 00:01:23 who pointed out to me in a rather surreptitious way that my flyers were down. He said, excuse me, sir, your flyers are down. But can I just say, and I'm not suggesting that you, this is not meant to be actionable
Starting point is 00:01:34 or potentially libelous or a slight on your good name in person, Mr. Donaldson, but of all the people I have ever met, you have your flyers down the most. Yeah, correct. Why is that the case? Attention to detail.
Starting point is 00:01:47 I'm not a details person. I'm a big picture guy. But do you wear a particular brand of trousers that means that happens more regularly? I wear a lot of trousers, which don't always have zips. Right. I wear a lot of trousers around the jeans.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Jeans have zips. Trousers have buttons in general. And yeah, I'm always flying low. These shorts I've bought are bad trousers around the jeans. Jeans have zips, trousers have buttons in general. And, yeah, I'm always flying low. These shorts I've bought are bad for it as well. I just checked them out. They're okay at the moment, yeah. It can happen. Sometimes you get a loose zip.
Starting point is 00:02:12 Anyway, it's the Luke and Pete show. It's Monday, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah, it's Monday. You're very welcome along. We are going to try and brighten up your commute, your run, your session in the gym, or your next half an hour of pretending to do work.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Maybe you are pursuing a man with a knife down the street and you're listening to us. We're going to accentuate that experience with tales of the unexplained. Maybe you're listening to us while you are performing a 360 in a stock car race. Or an ollie on a little finger trick skateboard. Little finger trick skateboard. We still haven't got to the bottom of that. Finger boards, I think they were called.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Finger, were they? Finger boards, yeah. Okay. Like on a violin. If you're new to the show, we don't start every single show talking about spots on Pete's face. No.
Starting point is 00:02:56 We do tend to shoot the shit for a little bit and then read your emails. Pete, what have you been doing apart from not sorting out your complexion? How's your haircut going? We heard about that a week or two ago. It's growing out nice. You weren't very happy with it?
Starting point is 00:03:13 I've been doing a lot of... I've been hanging out with a lot of live musicians. As we spoke before. I went to Lisbon, and then I went to see Paul Simon who is very small and then I went to interview Noel Gallagher
Starting point is 00:03:29 and he did a set and it was very hot and I forget how lovely people from Manchester are and they deserve better weather how are you getting on with the
Starting point is 00:03:38 I just don't understand why they're so cheery when the weather it's so overcast all the time and it rains all the time why are they so happy why are they so nice why are they so smiley all the time and it rains all the time. Why are they so happy? Why are they so nice?
Starting point is 00:03:46 Why are they so smiley? I don't understand it. They don't deserve that weather. They've all got a bit of an attitude on them, though, to be fair. No, they haven't. The worst part of the country for rain, oh well, I mean, if you like rain, it's not worse, but the most prevalent rainfall, I think, happened somewhere in the Lake District, and it is
Starting point is 00:04:02 something ridiculous, like 320 days a year or something. Really? So it's not actually Manchester that's the worst. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. It's up that way, though, isn't it? Yes, same neck of the woods, I suppose. Same Gregory.
Starting point is 00:04:14 I really wanted to ask you a question about hair again. Oh, that's what it was. The question I wanted to ask you, Pete, was we are men of a certain age. Yes. And we mentioned a week or two ago about how you you know, you were being
Starting point is 00:04:26 criticised for wearing an item of clothing from Top Man. Yeah. Top Man's not Top Boy, is it? True. Dickhead.
Starting point is 00:04:33 But I do find myself in a situation now where I don't want to dress, you know, with the greatest respect, like an older person, but I also obviously can't dress regularly
Starting point is 00:04:41 in Top Man. So I have to sort of find some sort of weird hinterland between the two. I was going to say the word hinterland. Yeah, enjoyable. But you seem to just, you dress quite young, you just crack on with it, you don't care.
Starting point is 00:04:53 I wear trousers, I never wear jeans. You do wear jeans sometimes. I never wear baseball caps, never wear jeans. I wear jorts in the summer. Jorts. I wear jean shorts in the summer, but that's just me. No, but I think when it comes to semi-formal
Starting point is 00:05:06 and formal occasions you're quite well dressed I'll give you that. Absolutely. But I think this is going to bring me onto my question which is going to be
Starting point is 00:05:14 because you've got darker hair than me and you're not going bald I've never nor am I but I'm never going to have to answer the grey question.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Is that true because it'll just go straight from blonde to grey can you see it going grey now I can see a couple of grey hairs
Starting point is 00:05:29 can you but they really don't stand out but yours are going to stand out so what are you going to do about it probably nothing
Starting point is 00:05:36 I just hope it comes in in one big streak like the barber of Fleet Street is it what's his name who's that
Starting point is 00:05:43 I'm thinking Paulie Walnut, so Soprano. Yeah. She's got the grey wings. Yeah, she's got the grey wings. But then it's quite short on the side. I just want it to come in
Starting point is 00:05:49 with a streak like, I don't know, Nigella Lawson or something. You're looking exactly like that guy I saw on the tube that looked like you, do you remember? Yeah, oh, he's completely grey.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Yeah. Yeah. He looked like you, but he was completely grey. Wunderbar. So you're just going to let it happen? Yeah, I don't have a problem with it. Once you start dicking about,
Starting point is 00:06:05 I interviewed Anthony Kiedis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and he gets involved in the old moustache and beard dyeing. It's just unedifying. You've got to do that too, especially with a beard. It grows so quickly. You have to colour that in. And you can basically see underneath the brown, the sort of weird mahogany brownies dye there,
Starting point is 00:06:22 the white hair, and it's like, jeez, guys. Did you sell that to him, or did you go, oh, goodness me, that's great. Goodness me, that's great. That's the thing, though, but with being a rock star, you can do whatever the hell you want, and not so you've got the resources, as well. So you can wear sunglasses indoors if you're a rock star.
Starting point is 00:06:35 You do do that? People don't go... You do that all the time? I do that because I wear prescription lenses, and sometimes I forget to bring my spectacles, which also I rolled on a couple of days ago. I've ruined my spectacles because I rolled on them in bed, like a stupid bear. Was it in the throes of passion
Starting point is 00:06:48 no well sleeping throes of sleeping and speaking of that Sir Cliff Richard he's got their dye going on I mean he's 77
Starting point is 00:06:56 Sir Cliff no one thinks you've still got brown hair no I know you're 77 years old well a lot of again a lot of actors happened with Tom Jones
Starting point is 00:07:04 didn't it Tom Jones and then he just went white immediately. He just went, oh, fuck this. Fuck this, yeah. Fuck this shite. Do you reckon he would have come and thought, I haven't got any fucking left. I haven't.
Starting point is 00:07:13 I haven't got an appointment. I've bloody run out, haven't I? All the shops are closed. I've got to be at the Royal Variety performance soon. I'm doing the voice. There we go. Yeah. I would have liked to have seen the halfway houseiety performance soon. I'm doing the voice. There we go. Yeah. I would have liked
Starting point is 00:07:25 to have seen the halfway house sort of thing. Remember when that block out the um um uh
Starting point is 00:07:34 who's H from Steps? Uh who's H from uh Ian Watkins? Ian Watkins from the other one. Oh you are talking
Starting point is 00:07:41 about that one? Yeah I'm talking about that one. You're always talking about him. I just like I just think his mugshot is a... He was quite good looking in his mugshot. Even though he was dreadful
Starting point is 00:07:49 in some things he did, his mugshot was one of the better mugshots. The best ever mugshot. But his hair had clearly died. He'd clearly been dyeing his hair for a long time. And he's completely, completely white haired. So the dye was half out, half in. What's your point?
Starting point is 00:08:03 He still looked badass. The best ever mugshot was David Bowie. Yeah. It looks like a fashion shoot. It looks like a fashion shoot. Cocana. Doesn't it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:11 There's definitely drugs involved, but I mean, it's the best mugshot of all time without question. Anyway. Some of the best interviews where you see David Bowie on cocaine, just Google, Bowie cocaine interview,
Starting point is 00:08:23 and he is so on cocaine like so on cocaine and the one where he's in the back of the taxi which is that one it's just it's just paranoia
Starting point is 00:08:32 it is he can't sit still he's looking out of every window I guess if you're someone who's that famous anyway you're probably quite prone to paranoia as it is
Starting point is 00:08:42 right it's a very very good advert everyone's looking at you all the time anyway, aren't you? It's a great advert for not taking cocaine. Put it that way. It's just, and some of the stories from, like, rock stars and even just, like, people who just didn't have that much of a problem, like, bashing back, like, three grams a day.
Starting point is 00:08:57 What are you doing? Are you just on the toilet all the time? I don't understand. There was a story about... There's no way anyone can do that in a sustained manner. There was a story about a quite well-known figure in music that I'm not going to name
Starting point is 00:09:11 because I can't remember the exact detail of the story. Hitler. No, it wasn't. It was very underrated as a musician I was going to be. Who, who... I can't remember
Starting point is 00:09:23 if this is in his book or not, so I'm just going to leave him nameless. He had a horrendously bad cocaine addiction. Right. I think in the late 90s. And he found himself doing all that horrendous stuff
Starting point is 00:09:35 that we're led to believe drug addicts do, like looking for little rocks of cocaine in the rug and all that kind of stuff. But apparently, he went to the pub on one Sunday with his pals.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Just for a bit of Sunday lunch or whatever. And was obviously going back into the toilet on the old nose bag. And when he was sat down at the table in the pub, the septum of his nose fell out. Ugh. That happened to the block out of... It's worse than that.
Starting point is 00:10:00 This story is worse. He said his first thought was to get that piece of his own nose yeah put it on the windowsill behind him so it could dry out because he gets some good good drugs out of it wow that's rock bottom guys that is rock bottom it's weird how it attacks that bit of the nose like it actually just pops out it's like oh it's not great is it who are you gonna say who had that? Status Quo. Oh, did he?
Starting point is 00:10:26 Fell out in the shower. I think it was either the blonde one or the, I think it was the blonde one. He was like, yeah, I mean, something fell out. What's his name? He's not left us, is he? Has he left us? Rossiter's dead, I think.
Starting point is 00:10:35 No, Francis Rossi. Rossi, sorry. Has he left us? I think Rossi died. The ponytail died, but the blonde guy is still with us, I believe. Rick Parfit?
Starting point is 00:10:44 Did Rick Parfit die? Yeah, Rick Parfit's dead, I think. Oh, okay. Francis Rossi is still with us. Okay, Rossi is still with us, I believe. Rick Parfit? Did Rick Parfit die? Yeah, Rick Parfit's dead, I think. Oh, okay. Francis Rossi is still with us. Okay, Rossi's still with us then. Yeah. Surprisingly, together band. Well, not anymore, obviously.
Starting point is 00:10:52 No, for obvious reasons. They went around for ages. They were playing up until his death, pretty much. Yeah, there we go. Whatever you want. Agos. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do? They had a 50-year career in music, so someone on a mic could go,
Starting point is 00:11:09 whatever you want, Argos. If you didn't like it, you shouldn't have taken the money for it. Exactly. Let's get out of here and go to emails, Pete. All right, then. Let me just press this button. That's going to need to be louder. Fixup, look sharp sharp I remember buying that record
Starting point is 00:11:27 I love that I love that album he is good and he should come back with better things it's a brilliant brilliant brilliant album fix up look sharp
Starting point is 00:11:35 happy shopper I like it at one point he says happy shopper you don't see them very often anymore now it would probably be erm
Starting point is 00:11:42 what's like a popular off brand er Budgins erm no there's a Budgins Now it'd probably be, what's like a popular off-brand? Budgins. No, there's a Price Chopper. Price Chopper? Yeah, get them in South London. You get them in South London. Price Chopper?
Starting point is 00:11:55 Yeah. Jesus. Spa? Yeah, I mean, spas are, yeah, spas are good. Do you remember All Days? All Days? We used to have All Days when we grew up. You down south and Down North,
Starting point is 00:12:07 two very different things. We had Heron's. Literally never heard of it. Heron's. Presto. Presto? Yeah, I think they were like one of the earlier kind of Scandinavian sort of supermarket brands.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Net-O. What we should have done is, if we had any planning, you should have done like ten of them and five would have been real, five not, and see if I had guessed them we should have you should have done like 10 of them and 5 would have been real and 5 not and see if I had guessed them because I wouldn't have
Starting point is 00:12:27 guessed any of them yes this is the email section where we frankly the creatively interesting part of the show where we hear from you the listener
Starting point is 00:12:35 the quality of these emails has never been higher no we're 80 odd episodes in and it's still people's stories are still being told aren't they
Starting point is 00:12:42 we're very much like you and I are like john hurt in that sunday evening creepy show uh co-produced by jim henson was it called the storyteller oh yes that was terrifying when you're a kid i didn't watch a lot of it i wrote i used to watch a lot of young indiana jones at that point storyteller was on like sunday evenings and it was oh man i used to watch it i don't know why but i used to i used to be so scared of it. Anyway, Sam's been in touch. Hello to you, Sam.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Thanks, Sam. He says, hi, Luke and Pete, the Luke and the Pete. In reference to child actors in episode 81, Luke specifically mentioned the child actors from Netflix hit Stranger Things. Oh. Have you seen that, Pete? No, I haven't.
Starting point is 00:13:20 You should watch it. I think we've dealt with that before, to be honest. He'd like it. He says, I work for a summer camp in upstate New York, and I'm originally from the UK, and I. He says, I work for a summer camp in upstate New York, and I'm originally from the UK, and I've been listening to your shows for a long time. The reason for writing in is that Noah Schnapp,
Starting point is 00:13:32 Will Byers in Stranger Things, that's the main kid, really. The kid who goes missing in the first series. Has he got the funny face? There's one kid who's got a funny face. He's got the bowl haircut. Oh, right, okay, yeah. They've all got quite funny faces. He says, he attends our camp and has done it every year since 2013 the summer camp that sam works for over more recent
Starting point is 00:13:49 years he has been able to attend camp on a less regular basis but will always ensure he spends any free time over the summer with us a very humble and genuine kid who lists tom hanks as a previous co-star noah uh recently joined us for a long weekend to be with his twin sister so there's no real point to this story, but interesting nonetheless. He says, I'm also pretty sure he was stage school trained, which is something we talked about. But good to know that Noah Schnapp, aka Will Byers in Stranger Things,
Starting point is 00:14:14 is a good egg. Good egg! Good baby egg. Hopefully he doesn't have a tortoise dropped on that egg. Watch out, egg. There's somebody who got in touch pimping a YouTube channel, but for crying out loud, I don't have the name of him. It was about the knives. Did you see this one?
Starting point is 00:14:29 Oh, I did see that, yeah. Do you want me to try and find the email for you, Peter? Yeah, go on then. All right, you fill and I'll try and find it. Well, I'll do a quick one here. Hi, guys. Your podcasts have made my commute to and from work in hideous Bay Area traffic bearable.
Starting point is 00:14:42 So for that, I salute you. On the topic of posh people being angry, my family still laughs when I recount the time we saw somebody steal a parking space in Greenwich Park. The loser of this battle proceeded to get out of his car, shake his fist, and in the poshest voice imaginable, shouted, You selfish sod!
Starting point is 00:14:59 I like that. I've got a lot of time for that. That's wonderful. We were pissing ourselves too much to notice what happened next. Did you see, that was George in San Jose, California. There was a guy who, there's a video going around of a man who was like, it was two lanes of traffic going into one. And this guy was like having a lovely day. He just sounded like the happiest guy on earth.
Starting point is 00:15:20 And he basically shouted to the car who wanted to get in front of him on this two lane into one lane situation. He basically said, right, rock, paper, wanted to get in front of him on this two lane into one lane situation. He basically said, right, rock, paper, scissors to get in front of me. And they did like a rock, paper, scissors across the car. The guy won. In situ. Yeah, and the guy won and got in his place and this guy was loving it. Rock, paper, scissors, man.
Starting point is 00:15:38 It was beautiful. I mean, you're holding up people behind you there. Yeah, you are. Yeah, to be fair. You've got to be more reasonable than that. Rock, paper, scissors. I've just forwarded you the email about the YouTube channel if you want it. You can read it off your screen, mate. All right then, mate. All right, you are. Yeah, to be fair. You've got to be more reasonable than that. Rock, paper, scissors. I've just forwarded you the email about the YouTube channel if you want it. You can read it off your screen, mate.
Starting point is 00:15:47 All right then, mate. All right, got it. Oh, yes, here we are. Yes, thank you. Hello to Mark. Mark at Mark's. This is something I'm actually aware of, but it's worth checking out if you can.
Starting point is 00:15:57 When I saw this email come in, my first instinct, honestly, was Pete would have already seen this. I've already watched about 20 episodes of this. Every time there's a new one, I can't help but watch it. I know how he does it. I know how it ends, but he just does a wonderful job. Yeah, this is from
Starting point is 00:16:11 Mark Evening Chaps. Yes, it is past midnight and I have followed down a YouTube black hole, but I couldn't resist the chance to share this little diamond with you. It was sent only 12 minutes past midnight, so don't worry about it, mate. Of course, this exceptionally long YouTube video... Pete's dad's just getting up at that point. mate. Of course, this exceptionally long YouTube video... Pete's dad's just getting up at that point. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Of course, this exceptionally long YouTube video has absolutely no audio content, rendering it useless for your podcast. But let's be frank, judging by some of the other content that's made it this far, it would still probably rank fairly high. It's a real dig, that.
Starting point is 00:16:40 This wonderful clip is from a YouTuber called Kiwami Japan, a man who has an unhealthy appetite for knives. This clip I have shared with you here is one of a series of non-metallic knives that Kiwami Japan actually makes. This one is made from pasta. Now, I spend a lot of time on YouTube. This is probably one of my favorite subjects that I've got involved in my brain.
Starting point is 00:17:02 People making knives out of strange things or just people making knives in general. The actual process of making a knife is, it's so old school, but you can make knives out of pretty much any metal and the way they do it, the folding of the steel and the folding of the bits and pieces,
Starting point is 00:17:18 it's incredible. Basically, the time and effort he puts into this work is astounding, says Mark. His array of kit, the number of pairs of gloves he has, that whetstone selection he uses to sharpen the knives. His other videos include sharpening the dullest of knives into something a samurai would be proud of, and it's utterly mesmerising to watch.
Starting point is 00:17:36 It's almost ASMR-ish. This guy doesn't speak. He basically just starts with a material you wouldn't realise could be changed into knives, but you can. He manages to make knives out of things like plastic, like paper, just compounded wet and then dried paper. It's incredible. But Mark is basically focusing on what he makes out of pasta.
Starting point is 00:18:01 After grinding down spaghetti, making a paste with the spaghetti paste, baking it and then sharpening it up and proceeding to stab ten bells out of a cardboard box in a plastic bottle, he does what every self-respecting pasta knife maker does. He whips up a cheeky three-cheese sauce and cooks the bastard, presents it on a slate tile and voila, dinner is served. That's incredible. It's incredible. It's a wonderful thing to watch.
Starting point is 00:18:24 But my favourite one I think this guy's ever done it might be someone else he got a load of pants got a load of underpants top man pants cut them up
Starting point is 00:18:33 possibly cut them up sliced them up yeah and what he does is he basically boils them in a very very hot pan
Starting point is 00:18:40 and then he flattens them out and then does it again and then folds it over and then flattens it again and again again until he's got this big sausage of um of basically compounded cotton or polyester and he's got to get there he's got to get the right consistency the right mix of polyester versus cotton and stuff like this and he bashes it down really tender like tenderizing and beats it and then dries it out for um so many days and then he's able to cut a knife shape out of shape out of it and then sharpen that knife and then he can
Starting point is 00:19:09 cut um like cucumbers with it and cut like normal food the problem i understand how it's possible to fashion anything like that into a knife and even make it sharp yeah with that pasta knife there i mean you're not gonna really cut anything with it it's gonna be too brittle isn't it no i think if you're careful. No, because this is compounded. I've got a ceramic knife, and that should be quite brittle, but it's really not. It just loses its dullness quite quickly.
Starting point is 00:19:34 You've got to sharpen it quite a lot. And there was a fashion, isn't there, during some organised crime gangs in the US to make guns out of porcelain. Guns out of porcelain. To stop them being picked up. Wouldn't porcelain be... I think it is possible.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Because that's what used to be done to stop them being picked up by metal detectors in, like, airports and stuff like that. Well, you can 3D print them, can't you? Yes, you can. I'm surprised you haven't got a 3D printer yet. No, I tried to... Because you need a 3D modeler to model anything.
Starting point is 00:20:03 I tried to make something in a 3D modeler to model anything, I tried to make something in a 3D studio. Something back in the day I was quite good at. I was quite good at making stuff in 3D studio and I was quite good at 3D animation. And I dipped a toe quite recently and I realised I'd lost all of my skills and it made me a little bit sad.
Starting point is 00:20:20 I studied for like three years doing that and I got to a certain level where I was like, you know what? That's pretty decent. I can do animation. I can rig up a body and, you know, make... So it's not like riding a bike? No, I've completely forgotten how to do it all. Could you just brush up on it, though? I reckon it would take too long.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Can I tentatively put out there to you and the thousands of people listening that I don't actually know how 3D printing even works? I can't really get my mind around how it's a thing. What do you mean? I don't know how it would work. Well, imagine... Say if you had a tube of toothpaste, and you got a tube of toothpaste,
Starting point is 00:20:52 now, to the listeners, this probably doesn't make much sense, but if you started squirting it at one point, and then started rotating in a large circle, the layers of toothpaste would kind of build up and build up to a circular wall. I mean, effectively, because it's quite viscous, it would start would kind of build up and build up and build up to a circular wall. I mean, effectively, because it's quite viscous,
Starting point is 00:21:08 it would start to kind of fall into itself. But say something like, something hard on that, maybe putty or clay, and just build it up like that, that's what a 3D printer does. But presumably the things they make in the 3D printer aren't made of clay, they're made of plastic and stuff like that. Well, yes, it's melted plastic. So like in the sameD printer aren't made of clay they're made of plastic and stuff like that so like in the same principle
Starting point is 00:21:26 as a glue gun the glue that goes in is quite brittle and quite rubbery and then once you heat it it becomes pliable and melted and then it dries back into its original form but in a new shape that you think, it's basically just like that imagine like a rotating glue gun or a glue gun
Starting point is 00:21:42 that just does, you know squirts out where it needs to in any kind of particular thing what materials can be used in a 3d printer well it just be like some kind of um thermal plastic i guess did you ever glue your fingers together with the glue gun oh god yeah yeah we used to throw i used to work in a print finishing factory building bugle boxes i think i've spoken about this before but uh god i used to abuse myself with uh with that did your dad have a glue gun in the garage? No, he didn't have one. He had some special ceramic, not ceramic,
Starting point is 00:22:10 so this metal kind of paste, these two kinds of moist metals that you had to mix together, and it would make this beautiful kind of grey metal that would fix anything. It was wonderful. I forget what it was. It was in a grey tube, it was. One had like, it was in a grey tube,
Starting point is 00:22:27 sorry, a grey tub and a black tub and you'd mix it together and it'd make this beautiful sort of paste and it would solidify into like just metal basically.
Starting point is 00:22:36 It was magic. Here's an impromptu game for you. Right. I'll say a sentence which is, there has never been a dad born that doesn't and you have to put it at the end of it. I'll start off with an example. There has never been a dad born that doesn't and you have to put something
Starting point is 00:22:46 at the end of it i'll start off with an example right there has never been a dad born that doesn't like to solder did dad do all that solder though there's never been a dad born that doesn't like pink floyd it's quite a fertile ground because dads essentially are their essence they are all the same cowboy Cowboy films. Ah, that doesn't work for my dad. I don't think he likes them. No? No, I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:23:10 Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Eric Clapton. No, Clapton, really? Every dad loves Clapton. Do they? Yeah. I'm trying to think. I mean, Pink Floyd's big, isn't he? By dad, I mean dad over the age of like 55 or something.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Because if I've got mates who are dads, he'd probably don't like Eric Clapton. Usually. What about this email from Paul in Dublin? I've titled this email, When Phones
Starting point is 00:23:30 and Photos Go Wrong. You'll probably have some contribution to make on this, Donaldson, without question. Paul says, Hi
Starting point is 00:23:37 guys, I'm a pharmacist working in Ireland and I recently had an awkward situation with a patient. With the meteoric rise of camera phone usage in the last decade, I often get people asking me to look at photos of their friend's boil,
Starting point is 00:23:51 their kid's rash, all sorts of things like that. One patient decided to show me a range of photos of her husband's rash for me to reach a possible diagnosis. So you imagine you walk into the pharmacy, you want to get something for her, and you say, look, this is what it is. She swiped through numerous photos but swiped one pic too many
Starting point is 00:24:08 to be instantly presenting me with a pic of a toilet bowl with a massive shit in it yes we both looked at each other and instantly and silently agreed not to mention the pic I'd just been shown
Starting point is 00:24:20 Paul says it got me thinking have you or your listeners ever been accidentally shown a camera phone pic and what was the reaction hello at lu luke and peter.com if you want to get in touch with that he said i really wanted something to contribute to one of my favorite podcasts so thanks if you read it out cheers paul in dublin pete this must be so i mean i've got a folder on my phone just pictures of you because you send constant pictures of yourself doing a
Starting point is 00:24:43 ridiculous amount of silly things. Yeah, but it's not like me looking sexy or anything. It's me looking like an idiot every time. And I also take a few in the field myself. Like the time we flew back from somewhere and your shampoo exploded all into your bag. That was embarrassing. But you didn't realise that until we were in the queue
Starting point is 00:24:57 to actually get on the plane. And so it was literally a scene where because we were queuing up to get on the plane, everyone was stood in a line looking at you, and you were sat on the floor with a shampoo everywhere. And I've got a couple of pictures of that, of you looking quite sheepish in my peat folder. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:16 The time when you got completely naked and sat in the studio and waited for me to notice. Got a picture of that? Got a picture of me getting back together. I'm just literally looking at what I've got in my camera roll. I mean, presumably, if this happened to... Say if Paul was your pharmacist. That's unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:25:31 What do you mean, that's unbelievable? If Paul was your... It's a pornographic film called Bad Boys Club. It's a William Higgins pre-condom classic. Did you get that from... That's disgusting. Did you get that from... Oh, disgusting. Did you get that from... Oh, what?
Starting point is 00:25:45 Gay men having sex? Unbelievable. No, it's disgusting that you walk around with stuff, pornographic imagery on your phone, Peter. Why? It's my phone. It's my business. Was it John's mate?
Starting point is 00:25:53 Did you get that from John's mate's porn shed? It flew over the fence and into my phone. Did you... I just wanted to basically say, if Paul was your pharmacist, and you're showing him one of your many ailments, and you scroll through, I mean, presumably,
Starting point is 00:26:08 some of those could involve a custodial sentence, couldn't they? No. My phone is clean. Yeah, right. My phone is clean. Right, so that's, I think, just about it for me for the emails,
Starting point is 00:26:19 unless you've got one, Donaldson. I'm spent. Let's get out of here, Luke. If you want to bother us with your emails, hello at lukapete.com. And we should say, actually, before we go, that over the next week or two, you are going to be in the Far East, aren't you?
Starting point is 00:26:34 Yes. So we're having to pre-record these shows because you won't be here. So do keep an eye on Pete's social media accounts for stuff he gets up to. For example, getting run over by a bloke on a moped who offered you 20 cigarettes to not call the police. Yeah, I think it was only 10.
Starting point is 00:26:51 I think it was only 10, actually. 10 cigarettes. And you don't even smoke. I know. That's the kind of thing that can happen to Pete Donaldson on his holidays.
