It's the Luke Good Pete Show And that's what we like doing Every Monday and Thursday We do the Luke Good Pete Show What a beautiful ditty Yeah, I was hoping for a better end But, you know, sometimes Dreams don't come true, really.

No, I do really enjoy when I'm in the car on my own making up songs. Yeah. As I go along. Because you've got a lovely voice, and I think... Oh, come on. I'd quite enjoy hearing some of those songs. Stop it. No, carry on.

As long as they don't get political. Carry on. Have you seen these clips of Neymar playing for Al-Hilal in the Asian Champions League against I think Mumbai City or something can I you say what you're going to say

because I've got something to say about this this whole kind of like these superstars heading to this league you've got to look like you're interested like

you've got to look like you're trying it's a very foul jamboree isn't it it's just I mean you're getting paid a lot of money you've got to look like you're trying. It's a very foul jamboree, isn't it? It's just, I mean, you're getting paid a lot of money. You've got to pretend like you're running as fast as you can. Especially for those playmasters. You can't just, it looks like Masters football.

It looks like that five-a-side league they used to run on Sky Sports at like 1am or something. Which was great, by the way. I don't really remember. I only ever saw like replays of it. And it was mainly Jason McAteer. I went to go see it at Olds Court once. It was so fun.

Did the ball come out of the ceiling? It's a good question. I think the ball used to come out the ceiling and then drop in the middle of them and they just sort of challenged for it. The thing I wanted to say about the Neymar thing, and for those who aren't football fans, basically Neymar, one of the world's biggest football players,

was playing for Paris Saint-Germain, got snapped up by a Saudi Arabian club because they were chucking a lot of money around the game at the moment, obviously took the king's shilling to head over there for a frankly disgraceful amount of money. Anyway, the thing I hated about it and thought there should be some kind of punishment, did you see that he flew there

on a private 747 with three people on it? You don't know what cargo he had. He may have been transporting some big things. If he had come out saying, I understand what you're saying about the environment and climate catastrophe, but there's a crucial amount of cargo on this plane

and I'm going to show it to you now that's fine and he opens up the belly it was one of those big beluga one of those big beluga

sometimes they've got another plane in them which is amazing cargo planes yeah amazing and they lift off the nose and what comes out

is 53 dead dolphins that he's killed himself and he goes look where am I going to get dolphin meat in the middle of the desert, dickhead? Those 10,000 penguins that died in Antarctica,

they just all spill out. Did you see that story? No. What business do they have dying? A great, another great chapter in human history is that a huge chunk of ice in Antarctica broke off, and it broke off at a time when the penguin mating season wasn't finished, and so none of the juvenile penguins had developed enough oily fur and feathers to survive,

and 10,000 of them died. That's a lot. That is a proper troop. You could eat for days. How much better a metaphor is there for what's happening than that? Yeah. So basically the sea ice underneath where the chicks were all nesting melted and broke apart,

and 10,000 of them drowned or froze to death. Right. But I imagine it didn't happen almost immediately. It just probably just... And the thing about penguins is they look quite morose at the best of times, don't they? They just seem

a bit lost anyway. They sort of flap about and they look quite listless and confused at the best of times. Don't have a go at them. Watching these little guys. Respect for the dead. So at what point does,

I mean, presumably there was some human observers of this situation. No, so it was observed, but it actually happened late last year. Right. And I think it's only just come to light because it was it was noticed by satellite data i thought it was just like like there were human observers like you see

in the in the wild where something horrific happens and you can't intervene you can't really intervene so i just thought it might be like that like they they watched them and but even though it was a man-made um iceberg situation that had broke off it was a man-made iceberg situation that had broke off. It wasn't man-made. What are you talking about? I mean, as I said, the situation that would dictate that the ice sheet would break or whatever happened.

Oh, it was caused by man. It was caused by man. So presumably it would be a bit rich not to get involved at that point when all those poor little penguins. So what I'm imagining is someone running onto that bit of the ice and throwing them over the gap to their parents sadly there's no one around right so they couldn't do that they couldn't even rescue a handful of them yeah which is a shame but what isn't what is horrific about it is that i when i saw this story i noticed that emperor penguins are currently categorized by the international union of the conservation for the conservation of nature as near threatened so so basically there's a scale and i might talk to you about it before

um where it's um you know it's i think it's least concern near threatened vulnerable endangered critically endangered extinct in the wild then just extinct right they're the um the categories and least concern is the one above near threatened and penguins are near threatened right there can't be that many of them right surely just by just by definition there can't be that many birds so so apparently so here we go this apparently the total population of emperor penguins is around 595 000 birds all spread around antarctic and the antarctic circle that's not enough 10 000 just gone in one go yeah yeah we can't be losing 10 000 at a time that's crazy no so like it's actually quite a seismic event from that point of view as well how many eggs do

they have how many viable eggs do the penguins they only do one at a time don't they now you're asking that you're really stretching my wildlife knowledge. Yeah, I'm not really sure. But it's not a great situation is all I was going to say. And on the interventionist thing, that came up the other day, I noticed. So do you know, have you heard of a Tom Wolfe book called The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test? No. book called The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test?

No. So it's a non-fiction book by Tom Wolfe who also wrote he's written a load of stuff, you'll probably be familiar with some of his work he's written things like he wrote The Right Stuff about the astronauts and stuff and he wrote

he's written loads of stuff, The Right Stuff is actually really good I didn't think The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test was actually that good but he's written loads of stuff the writer's stuff is actually really good I didn't think the electric chloride acid test was actually that good but he he's almost like a a gonzo journalist right like a new journalist

new journalism star so basically he goes and he kind of experiences stuff and he writes about it yeah and he

wrote a book like I said called the electric chloride acid test I think it was that book and he hangs around with a load of psychedelic types who are just taking ASD all the time and all the rest of it.

I think I'm right in saying he took a lot of flack because this book was written in the 60s. He took a lot of flack because he witnessed, I think, a quite serious sexual assault. Okay. But he didn't intervene because he said he was a documentarian. He couldn't. And obviously people were saying,

that's absolutely horrific, right? Some people basically understand to be saying, you need to intervene here. said he was a documentarian he couldn't and obviously people were saying that's absolutely horrific right you you some people basically understand to be saying you need to intervene here and then it came up again in a really much

different way of if you want to call it art creation have you heard of a TV series called below deck what the TV

where they're on a yacht and stuff yeah it's basically following the crew around these super yachts. Right, okay. They're looking after these ridiculously wealthy clients

who are just horrific. Have you seen it? Yeah, I've seen it. Yeah, I understand. Yeah. And so apparently fairly recently there was a situation where a woman was drunk and passed out in her bed and a guy who was also drunk tried to, got naked

and tried to get in the bed with her. Right. And the cameraman stopped him. Yeah, I'm right. Yeah, you said you can't do that.

Yeah. And so he intervened there. But what I'm saying is the same principle, right? Yeah. I mean, it's,

yeah, massively. I mean, it's not, you know, God given right to just stand back. You know,

that very much has to be part of your, you know, it's not a... I mean, you have to get involved, Julie. Yeah, I think so. I totally think so. I'm just... When you talked about intervening in stuff when you're

documenting things, I just thought it was an interesting example. Of course, it's much more important to, you know, save a life or to do whatever than it is to stand back and go, yeah, I'm an artist, man. It's like when you see me playing with matches. I won't intervene. You distract me with some shiny paper.

I was burning my fingers. I mean, talking about, you know, pre-holiday burning a little while ago about my pot noodle experience. Sammy's got a real interest in grabbing hold of the end of my shoelace and swinging the shoe around. Yeah. And the ends get rather frayed.

So I was trying to sort of cajole them into a point so I could get them through the holes of my trainers. And so I had them on the hob. I was kind of melting the plastic in the hob. Yeah. And I was sort of like pulling on the ends of them to form the plastic melting into like a spot.

And it did a fine point. And I just kept burning my finger. And I was like, oh, that really hurt. Oh, I'm not going to do that again. And I was like, I'm too lazy to find anything else to protect my hand. And so I did it a second time. I was like, that's even worse. And then I did it four times.

Did you get it done? Yeah, I've got a bone on now. I've got a bone on my finger. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes. You've got to get it done, yeah. Good for you.

What price can you put on fashion? My mother and father-in-law have got a dog who goes crazy with shoes every time you get home. Loves to spin them around. He just picks up a shoe, any shoe in his mouth and goes mad for it. Lukey Moore. Yeah. We were talking about this last night on the WhatsApp group. Would you like a couple of examples of Hulk Hogan's lies?

Oh, so this is an amazing phenomenon which I wasn't really that aware of. So can you give people context because they may not know. So there may be people in your life that tell tall tales. I mean, I love a story. If I'm in the pub and I've had a few beers,

I'm away. But they're frequently not about you. They're frequently not about the things you've achieved they're frequently not about um things that you've done in your life and uh you know they're just stories and everyone knows how mediocre i am um no so hulk hogan is a man who will not stop telling lies about his past like he is one of the world's most famous men he's a man who's grown up very much in the public eye since he was you know in his early 20s and yet he still thinks he's able to tell massive provably false lies to to everyone who will listen he's getting on a bit now, and he just feels very comfortable

talking absolute baloney. I'll rate it. I'll rate it. Just do what you want. You've got the stage now. He's post-truth, isn't he? He's very Trumpian. He lives in Florida.

I think he's a Trump supporter. You know, he'll... He doesn't matter. No one's going to... And he's richer than hell after the Gawker incident the thing is though even in the that shows you doesn't it without being too

earnest it shows you the damage can be done by people in massive positions of power normalising this ridiculous fucking behaviour giving people a licence who are otherwise quite dickheadish positions of power, normalising this ridiculous fucking behaviour. This nonsense, yeah.

And giving people a licence who are otherwise just quite dickheadish just to do it themselves, right? And I think there's an element to it with Hulk. When people get to a certain age, they just don't give a shit anymore.

Yeah, there's that as well. My grandad's a great example of it. I went to see my grandad about two weeks ago. The first thing he said to me was, you've put on a bit. You've got to sort that out. I'll sort that out if our you yeah thanks how you doing you know they don't care so

there's a bit of that to it as well but i mean this this clip you sent me was fucking hilarious so hulk hogan did an interview with muscle and health magazine which um you know i'm not a big muscle and health guy uh but i presume men's health is up there as the best. But muscle and health seems like a bit of a bottom feeder. Covers it all, though. Covers it all. Muscle and health. And it's pretty insane. Hulk Hogan has a reputation for just lying all the time.

But even for Hulk Hogan, the clip in question, which we'll share on socials, is even better than what he usually pulls out, lies per minute anyway. He basically spoke about this child who died before he wrestled at Wembley Stadium. He's now saying that a child died at Wembley Stadium after Hulk Hogan could smell that the boy was dying

when he was wrestling at SummerSlam at Wembley Stadium in the UK. boy was dying when he was wrestling at SummerSlam at Wembley Stadium in the UK. Ignoring the fact that that's demented behaviour anyway, and demented thing to say, smelling death and all that stuff,

he wasn't even at SummerSlam. He didn't even wrestle at Wembley Stadium. He goes on to say that he brought Simon Cowell over to do the wrestling album. He wasn't involved in any of that. And so there are some incredible stuff

that Hulk Hogan feels very comfortable just sort of absolutely bashing. Doesn't he also say like he topped the Billboard 200 charts for like eight weeks or something as well? Yeah, absolute nonsense. So here's a few favourites. These are his kind of boilerplate

like classic ones that have been disproven so many times Hulk Hogan claimed that he was offered the main role in the movie The Wrestler

three times the director Darren Oronofsky then responded saying for the record the role of the wrestler was always Mickey Rock it was never Hulk Hogan

and you know I don't know where that came from imagine if Hulk Hogan was in that fucking movie. It'd just be absolutely ridiculous. It'd be terrible. In Hogan's second biography, My Life Outside the Ring,

he claims to have wrestled 400 days out of the year. He claims it was from flying back and forth to Japan which added days to his year. Absolute shit. Hulk Hogan claims that, so Hulk Hogan, like when he first started, he wasn't really interested in wrestling, but he was just like kind of a beach bum,

like he was a California beach bum, or maybe Florida probably. But he was in like a rock band and he played bass. Anyway, he said that he was supposed to play bass for both the Rolling Stones and Metallica. Both bands have denied this rumor many times. Lars Ulrich said on the Howard Stern show, I don't know Hulk Hogan. Hulk Hogan said he used to fight Pride Fighters in the 70s, which is obviously, you know, UFC before it was UFC.

But Pride Fighting didn't have their first event until 1997 when Hulk Hogan was very much a pro wrestler. Hulk Hogan said that he partied with John Belushi after WrestleMania 2. John died in 82. WrestleMania 2 was 86. Hulk Hogan and Clemson brought Simon Cowell to the United States. He said he wrestled at SummerSlam 92 at Wembley and noticed an empty seat in the crowd. He noticed that a sick fan of his had died.

Simon helped him make a song about it. He wasn't at SummerSlam 92 at Wembley and noticed an empty seat in the crowd. He noticed that a sick fan of his had died. Simon helped him make a song about it. He wasn't at SummerSlam 92. Hulk Hogan has said that Mike Tyson was too scared to work with Hogan in WCW. Hulk Hogan said that he had a match with Antonio Inoki in Japan. Hogan beat him up so badly that Inoki

died but got brought back to life via CPR after the match. He only died last year. I mean, it's good stuff. Hulk Hogan claimed that Elvis Presley was a Hulkamaniac. Elvis died in 1977 before Hulk Hogan was even a thing. It's all strong, strong lies. Do you think he's just gone to a situation

where he's been just told what he can do so often that he can do whatever he likes he he can

he just doesn't he's just got no perspective anymore because apparently I remember reading way back in the day that he claimed you know he had that

kind of brief period in Hollywood where he was an actor he did like Mr. Nanny and Suburban Commando yeah didn't he claim that he wrote

all the scripts for those yes he rewrote them yeah he rewrote them in a few days you did it like some of this stuff like he

I mean bearing in mind he made a lot of money out of that sex tape yeah he made and he also didn't he make

30 million dollars from that Gawker lawsuit yeah that was part of it wasn't it oh right yeah yeah with Bubba the Love Sponge or something that was part of it, wasn't it? Oh, right, okay. With Bubba the

Love Sponge or something. That was the guy, wasn't he? The Howard Stern sidekick. Yeah, he made an inordinate amount of money out of that. And like, if he's just throwing out absolute lies, he's got some deep pockets. Could he not like, could he not? None of that happened. I'm suing you for lying.

No, but I guess... About my smelly dead child. He's not libeling people though. He's just making himself look like a prat. Yeah, well, you know, he's mentioning people. He said that Mike Tyson was too scared to fight him. Mike Tyson needs, you know, weed money. Mike Tyson does not need

any money and there's no way he's suing him for that. Are you sure? Mike Tyson seems like a man who hasn't got a lot of scratch. He does a lot of mad stuff. Yeah, but I think he's got a pretty successful set of businesses, hasn't he? Right. I think he's quite, against all odds, I think he's actually quite successful, old Tyson.

I like it when he doesn't realise that Hasbro's a grown man. I like it when, have you seen seen it when have you seen that video that meme video where Rory can stick it on the old socials where some guy, I can't remember who it is now is talking about his favourite hip hop artists. Right. And he's just listed all these classic

hip hop artists from like the 80s. And Tyson just cuts and goes You give love a bad name. And I think it's Dana White from UFC, and Dana White just goes, that's Bon Jovi. And Tyson just sat there.

I wanted everybody to be cool. Is Pesci still with us? Did he die? Yeah, no, he's knocking about, yeah. He's knocking about. He doesn't do anything, does he? I mean, he looks mental now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

He looks like, I think he does still do stuff. He was in The Irishman, I think anything, does he? He looks mental now. He looks like... I think he does still do stuff. He was in The Irishman, I think. He was in The Irishman, yeah. He's in a new film coming out called Day of the Fight, apparently. Right, okay. Which is the guy who...

Do you know the best character in Boardwalk Empire? Richard Thingy the sniper from the First World War yeah he's now a director right this guy called Jack Houston

and he's directing a movie called Day of the Fight and Pesh is in that but he doesn't do an awful lot of stuff I saw him in the street around the corner

from my house once did you? yeah what in Soho? yeah I was going to say well not in Lyon Say I think it's

he's called a Lyon City. I think it was. He's called it Lyon City. I think he was in a theatre play around the corner. Did you hear that story about back in the day in Beverly Hills? I want to say it was Robbie Williams. He was heading to some big party at a house in Beverly Hills and got his driver just to park a car in front of a driveway. Yeah. And it turned out to be Joe Pesci's driveway.

Right. And Pesci was like, next thing you know, he came out and Pesci was smashing the shit out of the car of a golf club. And he was like, this is like proper like life imitating art. So good. I guess you're on his, the neighbour next door, not one I know, I think is the one who left an aggressive note about the dogs barking.

Oh, who was that? Have you found out who that was? Yeah, I've got some ideas. They've put a big sign on their... They've got a big sign on their... They've got this drop curve, and the back of their house has a little sort of garage, but they never use it. There's no car in there.

But they've seen fit to put a big sign up, a really ugly sign saying, no parking in front of the drop curve, no parking in front of the garage. But they've been there for two years. They've never used it for cars. They've never ever used it for cars. It's a greenhouse, basically.

And the thing that makes me laugh is that he only put that sign up because he doesn't want people parking over the drop curve that he exclusively uses for his own car. Yeah. So he puts it in front of the drop curve and the curb, and he makes it look like you're allowed to park there because no one knows whose car that is. Do you know what I mean?

So if you're driving past, you don't go, oh, you can park there because there's knows whose car that is. Do you know what I mean? So if you're driving past, you don't go, oh, you can park there because there's a car in the car. I see what you mean. In many ways, it's the perfect crime. Don't use it. You know what I mean?

It's the perfect crime. It's the perfect crime. Yeah, you should fucking get in this grill and park there yourself. Yeah. I mean, I think I all did that when I fast-fooded in. But yeah, it's just usual

kind of like passive aggressiveness. Any more news on the woman who enjoys putting corns out? She's still doing it, mate. She's still doing it. I couldn't believe it the other day when Mimi sent me a video of her doing it again. She's doing it again. It's outrageous. It's absolutely outrageous. Our next-door neighbour's got

three kids who need the spade. It's just dreadful stuff. Let's get some buttered sausage in the spite. It's just, anyway, it's just dreadful stuff. Buttered sausage. Buttered sausage. Right. Let's get some buttered sausage in the break

and when we come back we're going to do some more buttered sausages aka vaulted buttered sausages. Electric sausages. Batteries.

We're back with Logan Peter Shaw. We've got the lovely tidy little feature I like to call the boys of the battery brands. If you find a battery somewhere do let us know.

Take a picture and you have to own the battery. Is that fair? I think that's what we're speaking about. Yeah, you have to have custody of it for sure.

Chris says hello. I don't know why it's taking so long to send this in but the battery from my insulin pump is surely a new player. The swill.

It's an annoying little fucker that you can't easily buy replacements for if it runs out while you're out and about. It's half double A sized. That's weird. Yeah. I'm liking it though. I think it's allowed. I think it's allowed. It's

half double A sized. I don't know if that's that's that's official but um yeah soo eel um and it's a it's a it's a strange little sort of shape why didn't they just make it a little bit bigger but i guess yeah but good luck with the old insulin pump now that was that's another bit of admin that's quite worrying because i wouldn't know where uh god it's like how did could you just eat the insulin i'm not sure i don't know if you look at the's like... Could you just eat the insulin? You put it in your mouth? I'm not sure.

I don't know. If you look at the battery that our friend Chris is sharing, it's got a URL on it, Pete. S-O-O-I-L dot com. Right. Shall I have a look? Yeah, I've been to that website, and I'd love to...

I'd be fascinated to hear what you think about it. Right. S-O-O-I-L dot com. Yeah. It's coming through rather slow, and that usually means it's... Oh, yeah, it? Right. S-O-O-I-L dot com. Yeah. It's coming through rather slow and that usually means it's, oh yeah, it's Korean. It's Korean.

Sort of heading around there. Can you read anything on the homepage? No. I can translate with Google Translate though. What's it saying? No, I can't. It's an image. So what,

first of all, before we get to all that nonsense, there is a brand new player. We've never seen that one before. The new player has entered the game, Chris. So I hope you didn't do yourself a mischief taking apart your insulin pump, because that's not what we would

want. And I would say that this is the name of the company that does insulin pumps, so it's not like just a battery brand. It's a company branding up their own batteries. Are we happy with that? Yeah, I think that's fine. Especially because they... Whoa, look at that. That looks sexy.

I want one. It looks like... Remember those talk boys that Macaulay Culkin had in Home Alone that would repeat what you said? Yeah. The Diabacare 2S. It looks like a little camcorder. Great stuff.

Right. That looks fun. Sorry. Getting distracted by insulin pumps there. It's a new player. Congratulations to you, Chris. That's sexy. Sorry. Getting distracted by insulin pumps there. It's a new player. Congratulations to you, Chris. That's sexy. All right.

We've got a message from Dave. Hi, guys. While enjoying another helping from Stack, the Stack pod buffet at work, I noticed a random battery sat on my desk, and I have no idea where it came from. The closest explanation I have is that my dad, the previously mentioned American Air Base pirate,

is trapped in a parallel.... I remember when he got the shits and just, like, hid his video or something. He's trapped in a parallel dimension like Matthew McConaughey in Interstellar and somehow willed it here for me to find. We present CT Guantacell Super Heavy Duty.

It's a tiny, tiny triple air. I love the design. It looks like the kind of battery the green goblin who we spoke about before on the show that's fair

we're always talking about him yeah is it a new player what makes the battery super heavy duty because so many of them seem to say that

it's just like a slogan yeah I mean it's super heavy duty but the actual form factor is super little dainty yeah surprisingly enough actually David

it's not a new player um i thought it would be i was convinced it would be but it's actually you know the um the ct guantanamo super heavy duty has been set in twice before by george quinlan way back in 2021 and by adrian in july of this year so they're not new players i'm afraid Dave I'm so sorry yeah so that's one of those things but unfortunately that's how it goes yeah

alright let's move on to Stuart email title it's definitely a new player I'll tell you for once Stuart it fucking isn't

I found this beauty when my daughter decided to change up the double A's in her Polaroid camera I got very excited no one else shared my enthusiasm

me neither to be honest, Stuart. My eyes lit up. My hand moved fast. My wife rolled her eyes. That fucking podcast. I imagine that's how she spoke. They're Australian, by the way.

They're Australian. That fucking podcast. Fucking. That was fucking galahs. My daughter was confused. She wasn't in the know. I said, oh, it's a poem. I've just realised.

I thought you were doing the poem. No, that's just the normal cadence of my talk. Let me do it again. My eyes lit up. My hand moved fast. My wife rolled her eyes. That fucking podcast. My daughter was confused.

She wasn't in the know. I sent it for the battery list on the Luke and Pete show. That shit is pathetic, grumbled my wife. I mumbled something back about leaving my life. I said it's a new player. I'll be a friend of the pod. Luke will check the list. Pete will give it the nod.

I present you for scrutiny the wonderful Pear Deer. Has there been a more beautifully crafted energy vessel? I think he was going to go back and replace that with a rhyming world please say it's a new player on the list along with fuck you Shannon

he got a new player before I tell you I'm just going to remind you the scene is so typically Australian I said it's a new player I'll be a friend

of the pod Luke will check the list Pete will give it the nod it's the 44th pair there hey you could have got number 50 you could have got number 50 Luke will check the list. Pete will give it the nod. It's the 44th pair, dear. Hey, you could have got number 50.

You could have got number 50. 44th time's a charm. Yeah. Sorry about that, mate. That's two birthdays in that. That's two identical birthdays in there. Stuart, your marital issues are your own. I'm with Shannon on this one.

Yeah. He's a nightmare man. That fucking podcast. Fucking podcast. Quickly before we go, I've just got to squeeze this email in because I promised I'd do it it's from our friend Neil it's about a ghost grandad

along the popular theme at the moment for seeing ghosts hi guys I've got a ghost story for you I didn't actually get eyes on my dead grandad but he still popped in to say goodbye in 2003 my grandad was in hospital with only days to live due to the fact that he was suffering from bone marrow

cancer. I got home one day after visiting him and went to my room, rolled a joint, and put on the Fast and Furious on DVD. Yes. Don't laugh, Peter. What's wrong with that? Nothing. Get home and watch the Fast and Furious DVD. Smoking a big J.

Get it on. I'm watching Fast and Furious. Get it on. Some lovely extra features. Within minutes of putting the film on, we had a power cut. So I sat on my windowsill smoking and then I noticed it was only our house with no power as the whole street was still lit up. So my dad checked the fuse box and nothing had tripped out.

Then after about five minutes, everything comes back on exactly the same time, the landline rings. It's my nan. My grandad had died. He was an electrician. Cheers, Neil. That's a great twist, right? That's a good one. Look, I'm willing to believe. I'm putting the bit of X-tip on my window.

I'm willing to believe. Putting the red lamp up in the window, I want to believe. There we go. I thought we should end with that because it's a very poignant story. That's the kind of ghost. It involves electricity. It involves the Fast and the Furious and smoking a big dube. Fantastic.

My mum maintains that when her grandfather died, he was my great-grandad and I was only about 10 or 11. She said she had a dream the night before that her grandad and her were walking down the street and a bus came along and her granddad got on the bus and she tried to get on. The granddad said, no, you can't get on. And the next day she found out he had died.

Now, I don't know if that's true, but that's what she said. That's wild, isn't it? It's what your brain does. My great granddad, my mum's granddad, the same guy, did a really lovely thing to her as well. He said to her, when he kind of knew the game was up, he said to her, I'll come back to you as a Robin.

Every time you see a Robin, you know that I'm there looking after you. And we had that passed down our family. So every time I see a Robin now, I still always think, oh, that's my great-grandad. It's quite a nice little gift to leave to a person i think yeah i think it is anyway on that note buddy love that all right then um every time you see us we'll be a dirty pigeon yeah exactly we see two pigeons together kicking off and one of them's got a gammy foot and the other one's taking a shit. That's Luke and Pete.
