The Luke and Pete Show - Hot, fresh gallium delivered to your door

Episode Date: November 13, 2025

It seems strange to say it but we now live in a world where one can have high-quality gallium delivered to one's home the very next day. Is Pete taking advantage of that societal development? You'll h...ave to listen to find out.Pete follows the gallium chat by challenging Luke to a snooker showdown, a challenge that Luke approaches like a bull being presented with a red rag. Elsewhere, there's Boston Dynamics chat, Battery Robot receives a battery from a very stern wife of a listener, and we ruminate on why there are such odd signs on the London Underground network.You can also get involved by emailing us: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com!

Starting point is 00:00:00 It's the Luca Pietjot. I'm Beat Donaldson. I'm joined by Mr. Lucie Moore, and I am gutted Luke. Apparently the Heimlich manoeuvre is not a thing I've just been saying before we started the show. Yeah, this is news to me. Yeah. It just seems to be that it's fallen out of vogue, but the Heimlich maneuver was the thing that was supposed to be like saving loads of people. It was supposed to be a thing that was like the best way to deal with the chokker. but apparently not. So what is the best way now? I think it's just a sharp shark shark, shark as involved.
Starting point is 00:00:37 It's a shark attack? A shark attack. You're dead, but you're not choking anymore. Well, the shark can remove a lot of the blockages by squeezing your thorax very, very tightly. No, apparently it's just a sharp shock to the back. A hit, bang. But yeah, Heimlich out, hitting the back. I don't think it's even called the Heimlich maneuver anymore.
Starting point is 00:00:59 So maybe it's just, I don't know, Dr. Heimlich has got a lot to answer for. I don't know where he's gone. You don't sound that sure. No. And why I fully concede that health misinformation being put out there doesn't stop people like Stephen Bartlett. Are you happy that you know enough to be saying this? Well, now Henry Judah Heimlich, the thoracic surgeon, Thoracic Park. Welcome to Thoracic Park.
Starting point is 00:01:28 He's been... He's just chests everywhere. He lived in 96, so he's got to know something about it, hasn't he? He's got to know something. So maybe I'll bring my high-knit maneuver back along with fingering. Yeah. Why do people keep saying that? That's a thing that people keep saying, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:01:42 What? Oh, it's like a really edgy, fun, funny thing to say. What? Bring back fingering. No one finger. It's like, how do you know what people do? I remember having a conversation with somebody when we were talking about 15 years ago.
Starting point is 00:01:56 So it kind of taken... It must have been a stand-up who did it 15 years ago and it's finally got to the WhatsApp of the world. It's always a stand-up, isn't it? It's always a stand-up that starts it all off, to be honest. And I was having a conversation yesterday with a couple of people about how apparently
Starting point is 00:02:13 the way they book live at the Apollo is completely different now and it's completely shit. Did you ever have any respect for that program? No. You can always tell when we're going to be talking about a stand-ups all show. No, no. We don't have to do that all show. Well, we do sometimes, you get on your little soapbox about not like a stand-ups,
Starting point is 00:02:33 and then that's the whole show. It's not my problem if you don't have the conversational power to move me off that subject. It's on you. You aren't part of us. You can change the subject any time you want. What I need to do is to get a high-pressured hose and get that soapbox nice and lathered up so he slips off it. Well, what you should ask yourself is, after so many years of friendship, why don't I have the respect of Luke to be able to successfully move off a subject?
Starting point is 00:02:57 Why won't he respect me enough to do so? You don't do that to me You just tell me to stop That's the difference Sometimes you need to be told Right, fine, okay No
Starting point is 00:03:05 When I'm Need to be told to stop Is one if I'm playing My matches Two, if I'm playing with Mercury Three You know, it's just stuff Like that day and just stop
Starting point is 00:03:16 No, I've always been fairly encouraging of your Mercury habit Right Yeah, it's just I've rub it on my skin To see what happens I'm a gallium stand You know me
Starting point is 00:03:25 I like any metal Yeah, you are, you always have been. Yeah. You've been a gallium purist for a long time. That guy who wrote you kept consuming silver and turned himself blue. That's like you, but with gallium. It is, yeah. Just cannot stop with the gallium.
Starting point is 00:03:37 The gallium galleon is what I call my car, which is where I fall on my gallium. The gallium galleon, yeah. There's a real vogue in computing for not bothering with your normal thermal paste. We talk about thermal paste every now and again on this shot. I'm not allowed to talk about standards, but here we go on thermal paste again. There was a real vogue recently of people using liquid metal and basically in like a kind of little sort of protected chamber
Starting point is 00:04:04 over the top of a processor to cool it down and apparently it's very efficient but it moves around and if there's a jolt it sprays all the liquid metal all over and one of the things that's in the liquid metal for whatever reason is gallium and gallium is a fucker for aluminium it's an absolute... It will just munch aluminium like until a cows come home
Starting point is 00:04:23 You can buy gallium on the Amazon. Yeah, I bought some. I messed around with a can and I lost it. I don't know where it went. It's a good job I didn't have kids back in my gallium days. There's some here available. Looks like a lovely size of high purity gallium for 1495 with next day delivery on them. I'll tell you what, what a society we've become?
Starting point is 00:04:42 Right. Where you can pick up some commonal garden, low melting point gallium with next day delivery. If I said that to you, even 20 years ago, if I said that to you, When we first met, right, which was about 20 years ago, if I said to you, Pete, in the future, you and I are going to be able to get high-quality gallium delivered next day to our homes. I think you'd have been in Cloud Cuckoo Land.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Well, and at that point, I was at the height of my gallium obsession, so I would have been very, very astounded. I mean, like Amazon, you could buy all kinds of weird stuff, up to and including poppers, which I once sent to Andy Brassel's house. Yeah. But gallium... It's weird that he left, didn't it? gallium
Starting point is 00:05:22 um his wife's working from home that day why's Andy ordered poppers that was under COVID rules as well shouldn't I actually know anything no he shouldn't I actually know someone
Starting point is 00:05:34 I've got to choose this carefully right so I know someone not that well but he's a friend of a friend of mine I've known him enough to have a few beers with him over the years and I know him if I saw him in the street it would be hell fellow well met and all that kind of stuff um who worked for
Starting point is 00:05:50 quite a sort of serious secretive government department but at the same time was also not quite but in that kind of ballpark and he um he was also an inveterate pervert and he got a load of sexy stuff
Starting point is 00:06:10 toys that kind of thing delivered to his work address by accident I guess it was just default on his Amazon or whatever, the package got checked and he got fucking fired. Oh,
Starting point is 00:06:25 what kind of sexy stuff? Like sort of bits and odds and sods and bits and box? I mean, that's an honest mistake, isn't it? I think butt plug, dildo,
Starting point is 00:06:32 that kind of stuff. That's all fair and love and more, right? The fact that he got it delivered to work, I think is, you know, his gross misconduct maybe.
Starting point is 00:06:40 I don't know. With the emphasis on gross, I imagine. Is it not just like, is it not just the case that it's an honest mistake and you should be absolutely fine?
Starting point is 00:06:50 Um, you have to take out with him. Yeah. I mean, I'm not really sure. I'm not really sure what they're. Was he, was, I imagine he wasn't that valuable to the company if they could just sort of chin off somebody because. Oh, I could believe that. Yeah. Yeah. I could totally believe that.
Starting point is 00:07:02 100%. Oh, I feel really sorry for him. I've not been that impressed by him. I've sent, I've sent, like, I've sent stuff like briefcases, like ominous briefcases to friends' previous addresses by accident. And, and also a drill as well, like a bone saw drill kind of thing. That's not great. What was the reason for that?
Starting point is 00:07:27 It was like I was impressed by the quality of this drill. And I said, look, and somebody sent me a press. So I sent him one back, and it was a drill. But I sent it to the wrong house, isn't it, the next door neighbor? And then the next door neighbor said that he hadn't seen it, which is a lie. But it's just quite funny that I'm just sending people just random briefcases and drills. I once sent a, I think I've told you this before, but I once sent a near full-size snooker table to my friend's house. Right, that's too big.
Starting point is 00:07:59 He was fucking raging. He was absolutely raging about it. Was it foldable? Could you fall One of my best No not really It's one of my best Practical jokes
Starting point is 00:08:08 It feels like an expensive one Yeah it cost me About 500 quid That's too much money For a jeb I got it's second hand But he's my oldest friend So it's definitely worth it
Starting point is 00:08:19 And we had this little competition With me and my mates Around Christmas time And I said I ran the competition I said the winner can get a prize Yeah And it'll be a good prize
Starting point is 00:08:28 Up to the value of like 500 quid or whatever So everyone's really into it And I basically engineered it So he would win And then I worked out what day he was working from home And I got essentially It was basically like an eight foot snooker table
Starting point is 00:08:40 You could barely get it through the door And he said that the worst part about it Was the guy who delivered it Was like looking at him like he was some kind of simpleton What are you doing? Your house is way too small for it But where are you going to put it? No, exactly
Starting point is 00:08:54 And he's so polite He obviously wouldn't say anything Fantastic And he actually had to go out to set it up to be fair to him And it was ridiculous It basically filled his whole living room Did you have to do the cues up in the air, like pointing down? Exactly that.
Starting point is 00:09:08 And I think he ended up just giving it away. You have to. You have to. You have to do in these, yeah. I think there are two things in life that you can get, I think, very, very cheap indeed because people just want to get rid of. People buy them. They don't have the room for it.
Starting point is 00:09:22 And they find it very hard to get rid of. And it always ends down the tip. Pianos and snooker tables. They're just too big. From the 70s through to the 90s, I would say, inclusive, it was quite the done thing if you are wealthy to have a snooker table in your house. Right, was it? Okay, I see.
Starting point is 00:09:39 What's that saying? Like, I've got enough room for a snooker table. Yeah, I've got a big room. It's just got a snooker table, yeah. Right. Garage, could you just stick one in the sort of garage? I had a little mini one. I used to, I tell you what, I think I might have told you this before as well, but I genuinely believe that if I'd stuck at it and really worked hard, I could have been a professional
Starting point is 00:09:56 sneaker player. Right. Now, Lukie. Have we played, I've played darts and beat you not particularly handsomely but steady on steady on because you're the man of the
Starting point is 00:10:07 the beers and the and the pub room game and you give I'm not that good at darts
Starting point is 00:10:14 but I think if I practice enough I'd be good at darts as well sounds like Christmas time me and you
Starting point is 00:10:18 need to have a little game of pool I mean I'm not I've not played Paul for like six months but there's no
Starting point is 00:10:25 way you get anywhere near me my flaw the flaw of my ability in Paul will be so much higher
Starting point is 00:10:31 than yours it'll be I think you're forgetting Captain Chaos over here I'll do things that are unexpected I will not take enough time for my shot I'll hit the ball too hard I won't be expecting now Just to put it in perspective
Starting point is 00:10:48 And people listening and know anything about snooker We'll understand that this is actually pretty impressive When I was about 17 With not that much practice I'd hit a 48 break in snooker Right I don't know what that is But I'm sure it's right exactly you don't so listen don't step to me dolson they're just little balls though aren't they
Starting point is 00:11:05 it's like it's like playing it's like saying you've got a good done a good pattern in a little desktop zen garden there's a great it's not big enough it's not big enough there's a great reaction video series in filming people seeing the size of a snooker table for the first time okay not sort of understanding how big a snooker right it is surprising well yeah in a pool hole you get there are in a pool hall you get loads of pool tables and then you get one or two snooker tables, don't you? Because they're so big. So I think it's snookerables roughly three times the size of a pool table. That's huge, isn't it? That is big.
Starting point is 00:11:37 They're messing about. It's like Wembley. Before we move on entirely, I'd love to hear from my listeners what they've had delivered to work before. That seems to me like a pretty rich seam. Well, it's easily done. I'm always sending things to the wrong address. I sent some pyjamas for my mom to my house yesterday. It's like it's easily done the default settings on the old, on the old Amazon and stuff.
Starting point is 00:11:59 But, yeah. If you don't change it back, it can be difficult. No, exactly. I think I might have... No, I don't think I've had anything moody sent, apart from the old mystery meet that we had sent a few times. That wasn't you, though. That was someone else said in that, right?
Starting point is 00:12:16 Anyway, I promise we're not going to talk about stand-up comedians all the episode, but I just do want to address that point. Yeah, what is the Apollo thing? I've left it out there, and I think people will feel shortchanged if I don't kind of follow up on it, if they're, of course, interested in any way, which they may not be. the person was telling me that the show hasn't the producers of the show now have gone from finding the most exciting up-and-coming people on the comedy circuit right um to essentially
Starting point is 00:12:44 being in the pocket of the big agencies so it's been for a while hasn't it the old apparently so listen this is new to me so apparently what they've done is they've started to book people who say Avalon think what they want to break so they just give them a chance and it and it's really contributed to the decline in call it the show, which to be honest, I thought was fucking dreadful anyway. So I don't know how I'd have done that. I don't know if you make that any worse. But yeah, it's, yeah, Avalon and the big daddies, aren't they?
Starting point is 00:13:09 They're like a weird sort of like Japanese sort of J-pop sort of agency. They just eat everything. Didn't we meet them with them before we wanted to go out on the road for the first time with the ramble? No, we met with Avalon. No, it was baby car we met with, wasn't it? No, we met with them as well. we met with Avalon, I'm pretty sure with you. They came into the office.
Starting point is 00:13:29 They, um, I think they're... Before we ended up going with Mick Perrin, we definitely chat with Avalon. Yeah, Avalon, I think, uh, their cut is, uh, they have a, they have a not so great reputation in the industry for, uh, for how closed that shop is, I think, and how, you know, podcasts get done and stuff. But, you know, they're the biggest dog in town, and you can get on, live on the Apollo. Oh, ho, ho, oh, oh, oh, oh. So it's, it's comedy on the decline now, because it used to be everywhere, didn't it?
Starting point is 00:13:57 Well, comedy's back, Elon Musk said, so that's absolutely fine. Oh, there's a brilliant Elon Mustang this week. Did you see it? It was fucking brilliant. Getting loads of money for promises. Isn't he going to ship like a million robots? I was like, why does he promise these things? He's not going to get that trillion dollars.
Starting point is 00:14:14 No, I'm not, I'm not talking about that. So there's this lady in the US who's like a very well celebrated novelist and playwright and poet, right? And I think she's also a visiting professor at some university in the US. She's American. She's called Joyce Carol Oates. She's been like finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and stuff like that. I think she teaches at Rutgers now. I was looking her up yesterday because of this thing.
Starting point is 00:14:38 And obviously she's a very kind of notable cultural figure in the US. To be honest, like totally honest, like cars on the table, I don't really know any of her work. I've not read any of her stuff. But she's quite active on Twitter, despite her advanced age. I think she's like in her late 80s. But she's like a doyen of like, as a literary scene in the US, right? Okay, right. And she wrote this quite long tweet, like eviscerating Musk, right?
Starting point is 00:15:04 Talking about how, I can't remember the exact words, but basically talking about how, isn't it notable that the language that Elon Musk uses and the way he lives his life shows no interest in proper culture whatsoever, right? Yeah. Like he never references any books that he likes, off on the kind of the obvious kind of, I don't know, Ayn Rand or whatever. It never really talks about any kind of movies, any depth or any plays he's been to see. All the shit that you'd probably suspect about the fact that he's a fucking replicant, right?
Starting point is 00:15:33 Yeah. And it was so funny because you can really see with Musk, like, the stuff that really cuts to the core of him. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's not going to bite back at that. Someone pointed out, right, that ever since you, because he replied saying, oh, this is nonsense. you have to you know you don't know me kind of thing whatever um and then someone pointed out that actually ever since she she posted that a while ago he's been really
Starting point is 00:16:00 active getting involved in replying to people tweeting about films to try and show that he loves movies so he's like doing like a couple of tweets on the fifth element oh great movie I love the style of this the miz-onsent like really trying hard to show that he does actually love culture it's so pathetic it's so pathetic like how do they how if you're a shareholder for any of his sort of companies like are you sort of going I'm pulling my money like he's he's in charge of this and look at what he's doing that did happen for a while didn't quite a lot yeah yeah but I think his point around the Tesla I was I was kind of shocked by that and I was like I thought it was just totally obscene so I kind of read about it and his argument is that if I if I deliver the market value to Tesla of X amount then as the as the person who's kind of driven it forward um I am entitled to 12% of it, which is equals this amount, right? Which in principle, I suppose, does seem entirely reasonable given that he's the guy doing it.
Starting point is 00:16:58 And if it doesn't meet that market valuation, I don't think he gets anything. So it's just the numbers are absolutely obscene. And obviously, he is a complete fucking cunt. But the, I think, I think, like, there's been a bit of a misunderstanding about what it actually looks like in real terms. No, I just think it's, I just think the actual projections of him shipping, bearing in mind, he's had like a sort of road stuff.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Tesla that he promised for like for I think nearly a decade that's never appeared pre-orders are still sort of hanging out there and he also ship these these bloody robots I mean yeah it was kind of interesting the autonomous casting is interesting as well right
Starting point is 00:17:36 because that's been the thing that he's been synonymous with and he's like chucked his lot in with for a long old time yeah whereas like in the meantime like Waymo which is like a subsidiary of Google Alphabet or whatever they've been
Starting point is 00:17:50 using self-driving cars in places like San Francisco and L.A. for ages. And they're coming to London next year, right? Yeah. I mean, they're way ahead of that anyway. Yeah, I don't know why. I mean, I think it's kind of, is it semi-autonomous? I think people still need to have to watch them, I think. I think there's still like a day.
Starting point is 00:18:07 In London, they will have to do. But Charlie was saying, Charlie, our colleague at Stack, Charlie was saying that he was in, I think, L.A. with work a few months ago. They're all over a place. And they took a self-driving car. Yeah, it's mad. But I think there's still a network of people who still look after that kind of fleet in case something goes wrong in case there's the, you know, the car just thinks it comes.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Well, I fucking hope so. Well, in case it turns into a transformer auto bot and starts fucking shooting people. Starts kicking buildings over and stuff like that. That would be awful. That would be awful. Those robot videos you keep sharing with me of like humanoid robots like going wrong. I'm completely oblivious to this. I thought they were all like AI.
Starting point is 00:18:45 No, there's this particular model of wonky robot. It does loads of stuff. But when it falls over, it really gets very hirky jerky. It gets really upset. Like, it really looks like it's losing its mind. It's like you've got the one that we've seen quite recently a couple of weeks ago. I don't know who made it. Is it Swedish or something?
Starting point is 00:19:07 A company that made this robot, and you basically pay, I think, 400 quid a month. And basically, somebody somewhere else at a data centre runs the robot for you. So he basically, it's basically a remote control robot, which kind of makes a little bit more sense, I suppose. What does it do, though? It washes up, it loads the dishwasher. No, it doesn't do that in real life, not your houses. It does all that.
Starting point is 00:19:30 Who's happened? Why don't we know anyone's got one there? Not particularly amazing. So it's basically controlled somewhere else by VR. And yeah, and people, it's basically just like a housekeeper that is wandering around your house. And, I mean, it's very futuristic.
Starting point is 00:19:44 But at the end of the day, it is just a remote control robot rather than an actual robot. So someone else's got a basically control of it. And someone has access to, you know, your house effectively without actually having access to your house. I love the, I was looking at the Boston Dynamics because they're like, they're in the forefront of it all, aren't they? And I was looking at their company Wikipedia page, quite interesting.
Starting point is 00:20:09 And like, it says something like, oh, you know, Boston Dynamics was founded in 1992 with the ambition of, you know, bringing robotics to every day. life and make people's light, all that kind of shit you'd expect. Maybe people's life's easier, improve our existence, blah, blah, blah. And then there's just a bit at the bottom that says, in May 2025, Boston Dynamics auditioned on season 20 of America's Got Talent, performing a dance routine as robotic dogs.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Oh, well, who's going to get the money? Who's going to get the licensing deal if they win? It's just quite a decline in ambition. It is, yeah, exactly, yeah. It just reminds me that Jeffrey Lewis. You know, Jeffrey Lewis? Jeffrey Lewis out of curb, no? No, Geoffrey Lewis is a
Starting point is 00:20:49 anti-folk artist Right, okay He's got a song which talks about how At the start of the Ryan Stone's career They couldn't get no satisfaction Right And it was just a series of demands And then fast forward a few years or whatever
Starting point is 00:21:04 And it's just you can't always get what you want But maybe just get what you need It's a big decline of that ambition Yeah, definitely, definitely All right, well let's take a short break And we'll be back with Well, all kinds of stuff I imagine It's the look of Pete Shaw.
Starting point is 00:21:20 I am Pete Donaldson and I'm John and Mr. Lucke-Moeh and every Thursday we do things pretending to batteries. Yeah, do you want to go and get battery
Starting point is 00:21:27 robot and I'll give them the news. Hello, battery robot is here. Hi, battery robot. I wish you wouldn't have a go my brethren. How are you? Very good on Britain's got talent.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Yeah, sorry it was pretty insensitive to talk about Boston Dynamics and robots before you came in after the break. I've got a couple of questions for you, representing yeah the first one is have you got any gallium in your makeup no gallium is like
Starting point is 00:21:54 our kryptonite it's not allowed to hear us or our children yeah and has um has so if you were to fall in love with another robot but that robot was made of gallium would it be a would it be a forbidden love that could never be public it would be like romeo julia but with more ears and my second question for you battery robot is have you had a nice week Yes. I saw a film. What was it? Ex-Machina.
Starting point is 00:22:29 Oh, no, not again. That's your favourite, isn't it? No. Predator is my favourite film. You know nothing about battery robot. Get on with the batteries. Sorry. Sorry about that. We've only got one battery this week, battery robot.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Does that make you sad? Fuck. Fuck he said. Oh, you're back, Pete? I'm back. Yeah, I said. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We've got one battery.
Starting point is 00:22:49 Well, look. Yeah. Hey, I don't mind a battery feature withering on the vine after seven odd long years. I think that's a pretty good record. But like we said before, like we said before, we had, maybe it was kind of like a death rattle that we experienced a few weeks ago. And we had three battery components in the show. But shall we get into the actual battery itself? Stephen, no.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Stefan. Stefan's got into it. High little Pete, the recent drought of new. submissions to your Thursday segment has coincided with the discovery that my bet half neither shares not understands the joy of discovering obscure battery names. Yesterday, I came home to a kitchen table covered with the various LED lights, remote controls and a talking plush parrot named Helmut. In one corner lay a pile of air batteries, all lesser known products of the type typically
Starting point is 00:23:37 encountered a discounters and budget variety shops. The frow I have access to had removed these from battery packs and replaced each with better brands. In this, for instance, Varta. She explained to me that she wanted battery uniformity. Battery uniformity. That's the most German thing I've ever heard. Battery uniformity, with a single reputable brand
Starting point is 00:23:57 powering each electrical item. Removing all inferior brands optimises its performance. She added as justification for this ruthless form of battery eugenics. The pile of rejects contains all very unpleasant. The pile of rejects contained a pleasant-looking golden battery. I present to you the Gadsell in the hope that a... place and the battery daddy or even a shout-out from battery robot can write the injustice of its inclusion for our local battery community.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Thank you for giving me an 18 and informants since the first COVID lockdown of 2020. Gadsell! Gadsell, Luke. Thanks, Stefan. Yeah, quite, in some places, quite hateful email. And also, vaguely disturbing as well. The Gadsale battery, according to the photo, as well. Look at it, Peter.
Starting point is 00:24:41 It just says Ein Fuhrer on it. Yes. Erziger, Erziger, Einfjör, and Hans Haleni. Hans Alini, yeah. Anyway, I've got the absolutely outrageous news to report to you and to Battery Daddy, and Battery Daddy will be pleased by this. Yeah. It's a brand new player.
Starting point is 00:25:03 We live again to check out more batteries next week. The Battery robot is very happy. Yeah, we have to, we get the Gats. cell battery straight away, shove it down battery robots gob so we can live for another week. It's pleasing. Congratulations to you, Stefan. Thanks for the find. And sorry about your your wife. And her eugenics. You bet he doesn't want uniformity when it comes to her partners. Would you not want uniformity when you're, would that not be the correct thing to do? But she might feel like there's not a uniformity in the relationship and therefore he needs to
