Episode Date: January 19, 2026

Luke’s got to come clean about his murky past: the amount of pints and chocolate eclairs he knicked while working at the Student Union. To be fair, at least he wasn’t getting high on his own pork ...supply like Pete was at Leicester City. Plus: the relentless abundance of political weirdos, tricks of the hotel trade and metal bands fronted by literal children.

Starting point is 00:00:01 Have you used a slow cooker, Luke? Yes, I think I have. I'm thinking of getting involved in the slow... I would say I've mastered the air friar. Have you, though? Now I'm on... Now I'm sort of considering doing little meals in my rice cooker. Sure.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Can I use a pressure cooker? So we've got... We've definitely got one of those slow cookers that you have. So the way I would describe it is it's oval shaped. Yeah. It has a glass lid. Yeah. And inside it is like a dish you can remove.
Starting point is 00:00:33 Right. And you can chuck, say, to my wife, makes amazing meatballs in it. Right. So she makes the meatballs, makes the sauce, chucks it all and leaves it for like hours. Yeah. It's delicious.
Starting point is 00:00:43 Absolutely fantastic. Yeah. So I'd recommend it. It's just cooking stuff slow, low and slow. Yeah. It's my new thing. Brescott of beef? Brescott of beef.
Starting point is 00:00:51 Chicken. Anything that's usually quite difficult to taste nice, to make taste nice. Yeah. Stick it in there. What about a pressure cooker? So what does a pressure cooker? I think a pressure cooker does a slow cooker,
Starting point is 00:01:02 but does it quicker because it's pressured. Right. So I think if you're short of time and you want to slow cook something just the pressure of it. It doesn't have pressure. Yeah. It goes,
Starting point is 00:01:11 it sucks out all the juice. It sucks out all the air. I think that's how it works. That would be of interest. My mom used to use a pressure cooker all the time when we're young. I don't know. I can't really exactly quite remember what for, but...
Starting point is 00:01:21 Yeah. She did the Boston marathon boss. Fuck's sake. Did they use a pressure cooker for the bomb? It was famously pressure cooker bombs. I don't laugh about that. I'm not laughing about that. I'm laughing at the idea
Starting point is 00:01:33 that your mum is an international terrorist. She's not, though. Hiden abort, got shot. He did hide an abode. Fascinating. I remember... There's a Netflix doc about it, but I've not watched it.
Starting point is 00:01:43 I've watched that, yeah. I remember when it happened, 4chan were at their very worst analyzing all of the pictures of the... Because obviously, it was a marathon and everybody was horrible, horrible, sorry. So I'm sorry for making a light of it.
Starting point is 00:01:59 I wasn't making a little bit. I was... You're saying... You're talking about my mother. That's what you were doing. The lesser of two evils, as they're known. She's never known. And, and, and, and, yeah, like, 4chan, they're very worst on the day and the day and the day after that of the bombing.
Starting point is 00:02:16 They took all of the pictures, high-resolution pictures of, that everyone had posted online. And they were convinced that two blocks, who they were looking for, were these two blocks who were in the crowd. And when they're sort of posting pictures of these people, looking, suspicious, doing, you know, looking in... Two random, and there were just two random blocks. And they were, and they were exposed as like, yeah, the terrorists and the Fortunas spent ages. And the way that it all, the way that the fever and the excitement, I suppose,
Starting point is 00:02:51 of everybody sort of searching for these men, the arguments that the people who were spending a lot of time on this, on Fortuna were, the arguments they were sort of making were very, very convincing. and then it turns out it was neither of the people that they said and it just goes to shore that in the first two, three days of anything like that nobody knows, fuck all. And it was also that story there is reminiscent
Starting point is 00:03:16 of the Nicola Bully story, isn't it? Right. A few years ago. Yeah. So literally I think about almost about three years ago exactly where she was out walking her dog. That's right, yes. And she disappeared and her dog's harness was found
Starting point is 00:03:29 and there was no sign of her. And then it's somewhere up in Lancashire, I want to say. And the social media detectives just descended on it. It made the family life an absolute misery. And all these conspiracy theories came out, all the rest of it. And then because the police published something saying that they were inundated with false information, which really impacted the investigation.
Starting point is 00:03:53 And they couldn't separate it all out. Then their body was just found a mile downstream, right? Yeah. It's gone in the water. Yeah. Really, really sad. I mean, that's the modern world, though, mate. And you're welcome to it.
Starting point is 00:04:05 Yeah. I mean, I'm trying to think of the crimes that have been committed in, obviously it wasn't a crime, but the crimes being committed in my local area, it's mainly just, it's just mainly just people knocking on people's doors, really, and asking if they can clean your gutter in, and people find that very offensive.
Starting point is 00:04:20 So maybe I could solve some of those crimes. Why do people find that offensive? Because they're scared of people, because there's a lot of elderly people in my area, and they're scared of anyone knocking on the door, really. I think you've got a really good chance of being a con man. A little conference trickster, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Look, going in there, offering to fix... Too much small talk? I wouldn't be able to do it? Offering to fix their boiler and then rooting around for their building society book. I could see that a mile off of Dawson. Do we still have Building Society books? Probably not.
Starting point is 00:04:46 I mean, he's old people who do it. I can remember... My granddad sadly passed away just before Christmas, but he was still a fan of a check. Still like to check? Can you still do checks? I guess you can't still do check. I'd cash a check not a long ago.
Starting point is 00:04:57 If their grandfather ruled it, whereas, like, they're not going to issue anymore, but if you've got them, you can still use it. You've got a check, you can't catch them, yeah. Because they had the app, didn't it? You could take a picture of the front and the back of the check. That's what I was doing. It really puts you,
Starting point is 00:05:07 it really sort of puts it into perspective, doesn't it? How, of, uh, how antiquated it all was. It used to be absolutely ideal back in the day. Remember when I was a student? Write yourself a little check? Well, you would get given the, you open your student bank account. They'd give you a checkbook.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Yeah. And obviously, checks take three days to clear. Yeah. Well, they don't know what's in your account. And so you'd go to the student union. I'd cash a check. Yeah. Say that 50 quid.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Yeah. Not any money. They'd give you the money. Yeah. Check bounces or whatever. Yeah. No overdraft. Just overdraft.
Starting point is 00:05:38 What are you going to do? Well, I've got an overdraft, but I've already exhausted it. Yeah. And you know that in three days' time you're getting your student loan or you're getting paid from your job or whatever. Yeah. I actually remember working in the student union for a bit behind the bar. And I told you this story? Me and my mate, Neil?
Starting point is 00:05:57 Yeah, I think so. You don't know what I'm about to say. You don't know what I'm about to say. Free drinks? Oh, yeah. that's why I left because I gave three drinks if one but that was the thing
Starting point is 00:06:06 right me and my mate Neil worked behind the bar my other really good mate Tommy who I'm still really good friends with now he came into the bar late it was a really quiet
Starting point is 00:06:17 midweek night because the big nights at uni with Wednesday nights weren't they because that's a sports day and then it's the end of the weekend so this is like a Monday or something and we were bored out of our skulls
Starting point is 00:06:26 we were just playing pool because there was no customers us two working there and then Tommy and playing pool and ride the jukebox, like kind of shit. And then we just got into one and we were like, oh,
Starting point is 00:06:39 we just shut up at the right time, shut the doors at the right time, and then we just started getting on it. Yeah. Right, and it was bad. Yeah. It was like that scene in Lockstock where they get the money back.
Starting point is 00:06:50 And then we realised about three hours into the session. There was like a camera. Oh no. And we hadn't considered that before. Yeah. Which coincidentally later on was how I got busted for free drinks.
Starting point is 00:07:01 But the camera was on the tape And the tape was in the manager's office Right So he had to do a drunken extraction mission No, we couldn't because that office was locked Right So what we had to do Was try and get into there
Starting point is 00:07:12 The next day before he got it The tape Oh nice, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah And then Why would he be automatically He'd be looking at the tapes though? Well, we couldn't take the risk
Starting point is 00:07:20 Right No, he would be or he wouldn't be We couldn't take the risk Okay But all you need is like All you need is for someone to come And say they were given The wrong change or whatever
Starting point is 00:07:27 And he's on the tape Right, okay And then we Was he that officious? it was he was quite efficient a guy called Kevin nice fella and nice enough fella you took advantage of him
Starting point is 00:07:38 well a couple days later after he was screwing about I think he'd get fucking busted for theft because he was students and we didn't know anything about the world we found out the whole thing was fucking fake anyway it wasn't recording any tape right
Starting point is 00:07:48 nice so we got away with it anyway yeah I can't help but think that we've got fired anyway so it's fine right well how did you get busted then if a camera caught you'd given away free have you got busted you've been worried about the same thing twice Because I think, no, because I think I was quite obvious. They installed one.
Starting point is 00:08:03 That was doing quite a busy one, and everyone saw me doing it. Because drink was, I mean, we were told, we were told working there, you're not allowed to drink beyond the bar. Come on. I'm fucking 19 years old, and all my friends are here. You know? I would probably, I never drank a pint when I was working at the Leicester City, I would say. But would I get high on my own pork supply?
Starting point is 00:08:28 Yes, I would. would I Hot dog straight from the bath and were they monitored Was they monitored to the item so that they know
Starting point is 00:08:38 when I got missing I think I would choose things Like not like Hot dogs They probably aren't atomizing them Pork you can probably get away Because we would go home
Starting point is 00:08:47 Pork is not portions right It's a bit more free form We could get kind of like We could usually go home with A good amount of pork And a good amount of stuffing But But the stuffing was on us
Starting point is 00:08:58 To make the required amount of stuffing. But if we made too much stuffing, Pete and Justin are going on with a load of a load of stuffing. It's quite underwhelming though, isn't it? It's quite underwhelming to have.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Yeah, I remember once at a bar that may or may not have been the aforementioned bar, up to you to decide. I stole a massive bottle of vodka. Right. And... It sounds like you should have been fired a long time.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Me and my mate Richie. Right. He was the head of security there. She sounds like bottom. This is bottom. Yeah, it basically is. his dad used to run a security firm his dad is a character
Starting point is 00:09:33 his dad he's passed away now sadly but his dad used to run the doors in like some quite rough towns I remember telling the story once that he kicked a couple of lads out of this nightclub and one of them was screwing about it
Starting point is 00:09:49 and came back to complain about it and he had stolen a bike right like actually an actual push bike Right. And when they called my mate's dad out to say, you need to go and deal with this,
Starting point is 00:10:02 a moment he stepped out of the nightclub doorway, they threw the bike in his face, knocked him out and like sheared half his ear off. Wow. Yeah. I had no idea that. It's like, I don't think they're going to be a cooza. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:17 And anyway, me and Richie, he was at a security, and he was actually genuinely hard. And I was just a bar person. And it was like a staff night or something. and I remember getting, obviously, getting pissed, just seeing a bottle of vodka and staying in a
Starting point is 00:10:33 a tuck shop-sized jar of chocolate acclare. And we were legging it and we were legging it back to our house. Right. So enjoy your bounty. Yeah. Diffing the Eclare's jar slipping. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:10:47 So I went to grab it instinctively and drop the vodka before I smashed. I still remember this day, Richie in my face going, you are a fucking idiot. Catch the penny, Mr. Pound. You've had a nightmare? I think he was basically saying to me, you are such a fat bastard.
Starting point is 00:10:59 You thought more about chocolate. It's the fucking vodka, yeah. Because that's the thing they'd be annoyed about, because the clairs go off, don't they? Vodka's never go off. Vodka's like... Does vodka not spoil? No, no boosters, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:11:11 Apart from the egg-based ones, the Baileys and stuff. Is Bally's egg-based? He'll have a bit of egg in there, won't they? I don't think of Avica. I'm thinking of Avica. Yeah, I think Baileys is just cream, isn't it? It's all dairy. It's all dairy, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:11:23 Yeah. But when I worked at the Forte Post House during that year and, period as well. I got a job as a barman there. What things do you just steal from there? Well, I used to order meals to the restaurant for not existing customers. Right. And then they've gone. They've gone. It took too long. And then we used to
Starting point is 00:11:38 snaffle it. But that was a sickener of a job. Right. Because you had to stay with the barrow which had to the last person went to bed. Yeah, that is a stinker. And because people who stay in hotels, it's fine if like, it's me or you. But if... It was just blokes who hated their families. They were away from home. And they were just...
Starting point is 00:11:56 drinking it until three-th-hook. Golfing types, basically. Yeah. Do it in the room. Get yourself some cans and do it in the room if you have to be here. I remember, though, sometimes having to work till 4 a.m. Yeah, mad. It's a proper zero-hous contract.
Starting point is 00:12:10 You never know how long are you going to be working. Yeah, it was full on, mate. Do we still have the Fortier post houses? I feel like they went the way of the dinosaurs. I don't think so. They must have been brought out by some other company, right? Right. Did you still have one up in Hartlepool?
Starting point is 00:12:23 No, God, no. I think we had one hotel, the Windsor. Apparently they're still around, the Forrethe Hotel Group. Yeah, cool. They're acquired in 1996 by Granada. Right. This is post-96 though, so I mean, maybe they're just... Oh, the Bown Morrill is owned by Forte.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Oh, right. One of the... They've got some big ones then. One of the big guys. I see. Oh, the Forte Post House were three-star hotels for business travelers, but they're no longer around. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:49 That was their kind of budget form. Yeah. I've stayed at the Bownoral, which is a beautiful hotel in Edinburgh. Do you know it? No. So there's one on one side of each side of the Waverly. Is it the Waverly Bridge? I know, but the one's the Baalmore.
Starting point is 00:13:01 One's the Scotsman. I've stayed in the Scotsman, which is lovely. But I think the Balmoral one might be even nicer. I had a lovely time up in Scotland for a weekend. Went to go and visit the hotel up in Loch Ness, which I talk about regularly on here. They've sold that now, though, so no longer a need to go there. But I stayed in Edinburgh over the night before,
Starting point is 00:13:20 and I stayed at the Scotsman. It's great stuff. Yeah. There's nothing better than staying in a nice hotel on your own. Oh, yeah. Going to the cinema on your own, that's a pleasure. Yeah. Do you ever go to the cinema on your own?
Starting point is 00:13:33 No, I've not done that since the 90s. Going to the pub on your own on the Friday and having a beer on your own? Great. Only when I've been abroad by myself, but no. I just feel very self-conscious. Yeah, it's funny that. I feel like when you get to our age, you kind of completely anonymous. No one notices you.
Starting point is 00:13:47 No, yeah, that's a good point. As you get older you are. Should we have a break? Let's have a break. Let's have a break. When we come back, we're going to do an email about... About Nudge theory and about hotel, so it fits quite nicely. So let's see that.
Starting point is 00:14:01 We're back with the Logan Pete Shore. The Scott Adams, the Dilbert creator. He died. He died. Was he problematic? Yeah. What a strange end to a life. Like really, last couple of years of his life, he went mad, very racist.
Starting point is 00:14:17 When you say he went mad, what do you mean? So he just racist? Racist. And he, I think this rumours that he was taking that. invermectin stuff for his cancer and I think he was but I think the narrative is that like I said he
Starting point is 00:14:33 is daft racist magomaniac he took invermectin because you know that deworm or whatever and it didn't help his cancer instead of doing the normaroo but I think he did the norma route and it was a pretty bad cancer he had anyway but which is tragic obviously but what a strange
Starting point is 00:14:50 way to end a life all of that goodwill like Remember Dilbert? Dilbert? Yeah, yeah, I remember it. Well. Everywhere.
Starting point is 00:14:59 I love Dilbert. And he just threw it all away at the last second effectively. But does he feel like he's thrown it all the way? Does he feel like he was living his truth? Yeah, well, I think he probably thought he was living his truth. But I mean, you know, and society will judge either way. But I mean, just an astonishing rebirth, I suppose, right at the back end of your, right at the back end of your life. I think people get radicalised these days, don't they?
Starting point is 00:15:22 That's the problem. People just get radicalised. You see common or garden, normal people get. and radicalised. You see that video of those two kids that probably in the 30s or whatever
Starting point is 00:15:29 talking to their dad, mom and dad they're going, right, if Donald Trump decided to, I think one of them
Starting point is 00:15:35 was in New Orleans, one of those in Los Angeles or whatever. He said, okay. Louisiana, I think.
Starting point is 00:15:40 He said, right, I'm in downtown in a Louisiana city. New Orleans. You just did it? New Orleans. All right.
Starting point is 00:15:46 And I, and Trump's decided to firebomb bomb, Bourbon Street. Yeah. He said, well,
Starting point is 00:15:53 it's Bourbon Street. Bourbon is the biscuit, isn't it? What? Bourbon Street, you mean? Why can I call it like bourbon? It just reminds me of the biscuit, bourbon. Why is that called bourbon then?
Starting point is 00:16:04 I don't know, but it's... Could that not be bourbon? But isn't this... Is the street named after bourbon, the drink? Yeah, but like bourbon, can I say bourbon as a drink? Can I not pronounce bourbon as a... It's a biscuit? No, but like, can I...
Starting point is 00:16:19 Can you not have a different accent with the word bourbon? But, you know what I mean? Like, it's feeling a bit... It wasn't really a worthy interjection on my... part. No. Sorry. It never is. It never is. You carry on. And what usually happens is you get proved wrong on email and we never hear about it.
Starting point is 00:16:36 No, exactly, yeah. Carry on. But let's assume that's going to happen, but you carry on. We had an argument about the garlic press, me and Sarah. About the, you, you don't, you, you, you, oh, that bloke got really pissed off about that. He bombarded me about that. He was, like, properly using it as a vehicle which to completely destroy my entire personal. Sarah's, Sarah's a, Sarah's a, a garlic press Peeler. And I said honestly, I've been through, I have been through this. She doesn't believe me though. You said,
Starting point is 00:17:00 please Google it. I've been hurt before. I've been hurt before by this. I've damaged goods. I'm damaged kids. Anyway, so you're in the Ullies then, and Trump is hypothetically firebombing. And the dad's going, yeah, I mean, well, there's probably a real, and the mum's going,
Starting point is 00:17:14 there's a reason why he's firebombing it. He's going, yeah, but I'm going to die. He'll be going, all right, okay, what about Los Angeles? Los Angeles, if he decides to firebomb Los Angeles. And he's going to kill your son. The dad is gone, yep, don't have a problem with that. Is it real?
Starting point is 00:17:31 It's real. The guy looks such like a dad as well. I'm illusion of stuff. I mean, I've seen that slogan they unveiled at the Department of Homeland Security. Oh, the Nazi one. One of ours, you're all of all. Yeah. They've got the UKIP
Starting point is 00:17:47 freaking Iron Cross. But UKIP are, I'm not defending. I mean, the Iron Cross is just, is the Iron Cross. It's fucking no different of that. But the UKIP are kind of cranks now, aren't they? Yeah, reform kind of... It's not reform, isn't it? I couldn't tell you a single person involved in the UKIP.
Starting point is 00:18:04 No. In UKIP now. Kilroy still kicking a ball. But... Oh, do you know what? Oh, so UKIP is that fucking Calvin Robinson now? Oh, is it? The guy you are on that video game company.
Starting point is 00:18:18 That video game reviewing company. The fake priest guy, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The guy who left... Did he leave America? He said my worker is done or something. I'm coming back to. are the UK? Oh, good. Yeah. Thank you, Calvin.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Great. Just a fucking weird, weird, dude. I don't understand how, I understand people of different political viewpoints, but why are they so shit? But why are they so shitter at seeing who is weird? Yeah. They're all weird. But it's so fucking weird. Like Stephen Millet is the weirdest bloke that you've ever fucking seen. Did you see that video of him at university? Yeah, he's on the bus. That's high school, isn't it? High school bus.
Starting point is 00:18:52 No, no, no, no. There's a video of him doing his speech. With hair. With hair, I think it's university. I'll see one on the bus. Where he's talking about why do we have to pick up our trash? No,
Starting point is 00:19:01 I haven't seen that. So he's going, so basically, it's some kind of, you know, probably it looked like, you know, when they have like class,
Starting point is 00:19:09 uh, a debating school? Debating school? Debate, well, debates you know, class, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:13 you become like a class monitor or something if you, if you, you, you, you, uh, you lobby enough people to vote for you.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Um, and he's going, uh, why do I have to pick up, we don't have to pick up all of my trash we have perfectly good journalists who can pick up our trash for us he's always been a fucking scumbag
Starting point is 00:19:30 and yet you know these people are just taken in by you know carpet bagging underwhelming fascists it's the they deserve so much better they deserve a better quality of fascists they deserve Hitler's
Starting point is 00:19:45 and they're getting and they're getting Morsley's they're not even Morsley's But like the weirdness of it, I can't. If you look at Stephen Miller, like, he puts stuff out, and some of his own family are like, I cannot believe the disgrace you are bringing on your own family. Not of Steve Miller's family has talked to him.
Starting point is 00:20:06 No, exactly. But other people are like, that's my guy. That's my guy. The friendless weirdo. J.D. Vance's wife can't fucking stand him. It's just all of these kind of weirdos. I mean, what a journey J.D. Vance's wife has had to deal with. I know a couple of people who knew J.D. Vance.
Starting point is 00:20:23 I know a couple of people who learned to university with him. Read it. Like, his book is quite an inspirational story. I thought it's a shit book. But it's a shit book. I'm not just saying this. I read the book years and years ago, and I thought it learned all the wrong lessons from...
Starting point is 00:20:37 Oh, it was, yeah, it was. It was a darling of the left, wasn't it that book? Yeah, but I honestly can't get past how weird they look, how weird they behave, how odd they are. And the one thing I can't get past is when people, normal people, relatively normal people, look at those people and go, they're the people. They're the guy.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Trump is the coolest one. Do you know what I mean? Trump is the coolest one of that collection of raggy dolls. Probably by design. Yeah. Yeah. Because he's probably, yeah, because Scaramucci's really good on this. Scaramucci is a probably about a guy on his own way, I suppose.
Starting point is 00:21:12 But Scaramucci's really good on this, the psychology of it. He's like, Pete Hegseth will not last. that much longer and will never get closer to Trump because he's too handsome. Stephen Miller is right in there because he's weird looking and he's not seen as a threat
Starting point is 00:21:27 and the whole thing is put through this on 80s power dynamic and that's why Miller's there if Heggseth if Miller looked like Heg Seth he'd be out. He would be out, yeah. Yeah, all this kind of
Starting point is 00:21:37 the stuff that goes on is very, I mean even this morning you can't keep up with it obviously but this morning Trump visited a production plant or the finger. Yeah. someone shouted at him pedophile protector or something.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Great banter. And he's just going, fuck you. President, fuck you. President, accurate as well. Absolutely accurate. Whether he's on the list or not, still accurate. Yeah. Still moved her to a different prison.
Starting point is 00:22:03 Accurate. Yeah. Yeah, it's mad. Anyway, Wild. Let's do an email. Andrew Jones has emailed and got in touch. You'll be delighted to come in off the back of that.
Starting point is 00:22:11 The ultimate pedo protector. Why? What? You can't say that. You're the pito protector. I don't protect you that much. I don't think you. I feel like I hang you out to drive.
Starting point is 00:22:20 That's certainly my intention anyway. You expose me. Yeah. I put on the YouTube video as you won't believe what Peter said now. what he said next. Yeah. This is from Andrew. Hello to you, Andrew. He says, hi both. On the episode, What's that cash for, sir? Two things jumped out of me. Oh, that was when we were ranting about people not letting us get our own money out. Which makes us know a little bit more, like, Magnacarta lads, doesn't it? Give us our money. Well, you were saying that and I was like, I don't know why he's upset about this. Use it or lose it, the cash. He said I'll lose it.
Starting point is 00:22:48 They're monitoring you at your every move. Looking at what you're spending money on. And we talked, he said, oh, two things jumped out of me. One was about Nudge theory. And the other ones, oh, a little hiccup then, sorry. And the other ones is for helping kids sleep. So we'll do the Nudge 3 one first. We're talking about hotels.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Nice and to you, Peter. If you go to Double Tree by Hilton, what do you get when you check in? Oh, it was a little biscuit. A warm cookie. A warm cookie, that's right, yes. Andrew says, hotels have undertaken studies on human nature and how to increase market share and profit. they found the services between most hotels were almost identical
Starting point is 00:23:19 with brands grouping into tiers of quality to compete against each other so like Premier In versus Travelage, etc. They found that people subconsciously associated better hotels with those that made them feel at home. That's why I believe the warm cookie is provided because it gives people a subconscious link to freshly cooked cookies from a kitchen and equates the hotel with being at home. The peak's interest, the study found two interesting things.
Starting point is 00:23:42 People are stressed when they travel and as soon as they get into the hotel room they instantly relax hence why you get that weird sheet on the bottom of the bed because people just lie down without taking their shoes off and they don't want the sheets to be dirty
Starting point is 00:23:52 nice, okay. They also suddenly need to poo hence why bathroom lights tend to be left on and extra attention is given to the bathroom. Ah, okay, so you go in there do a poo
Starting point is 00:24:04 on the new sheet that's been provided. Wrap it up, dry the window, smear at the wall. You can't do that. That makes sense. And he also says, for helping kids sleep. I recently went to Denmark and switched on the TV. Sadly, the remote was
Starting point is 00:24:19 tape shut so I couldn't ship the batteries and found their equivalent of BBC 3 was just showing people sleeping. And I googled it. And apparently Danish Kids TV channel DR Ramesa Jang features a unique bedtime feature where it's popular characters and hosts from throughout the day are shown constantly sleeping from night 8.30pm till morning 6 a.m. That's lovely. Seagling to children, it's time to sleep. Yeah. Because all their friends, because you're not, you what, you, whatever you see on this television, you're not going to see anything because everyone's asleep. So if your kid gets up early and puts on the TV, if it's before 6 a.m., they know it's too early,
Starting point is 00:24:49 and they go back to bed. I don't need to see Mr. which wouldn't have worked with my son. Right, no. He would just stubbornly, angrily exclaimed that he wanted to play with his toys. Yeah. I mean, I do not want to see Mr. Tumble having a shovel in bed. Are he sleeping, though? He's not. I mean, he's a grown man.
Starting point is 00:25:06 Someone found Mr. Tumble party at some gig, didn't they? Did he? Nice. Oh, the gig, yeah, yeah. Filming him. Yeah. At the balcony was. It was metal or something?
Starting point is 00:25:13 I can't remember. I think it was like some kind of emo type band. Right. Maybe. Get on him. He was very tearful. I think he might be close to retirement. He's very tearful when we saw him at South End.
Starting point is 00:25:24 He's the absolute king of the format. King of the format. He's the king of formats. If you're out there and you're a budding kind of entertainment industry person, it's all about formats. Yeah, so he came out when he sang and Fix You by Gold Play. Oh, that's sweet. Got a bit emotional, I think.
Starting point is 00:25:42 I love the work he does. I love how he always insists on putting differently abled Learned Disability kids front and central all his program. It's really nice. Yeah. And that robot?
Starting point is 00:25:52 Very inclusive. Justin's house. Yeah, who plays the robot? I don't know. Because Justin plays loads of him at characters. No, that's... He doesn't play the robot though.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Mr. Tumble plays... Lord Tumble. Lord Tumble and the lady dresses up as, like, Mrs. Doubtfire type character. That is, um, Aunt Tumble? Aunt Tumble?
Starting point is 00:26:11 Something like that, yeah. Yeah. But he doesn't play the robot. Hello, the robot. Who plays the robot? I don't know, his friend. I don't know. He looks tired.
Starting point is 00:26:19 But was he there in the live one? He wasn't there. No, he just got some young dancers to sort of bolster his show. What was the Mr. Tumble show then? What was it doing? It wasn't a Mr. Tumble show. It was a Justin's...
Starting point is 00:26:31 But was it Justin's Rockout? It was Justin's Rockout party time. Just in a song. So he didn't have to pay the robot. Fair enough. Save on the overheads. Exactly. Isn't it?
Starting point is 00:26:39 If you'd like meet us in a live ramble show at just being me. Yeah, and then some robots. Because the problem is, it eats into your margin. Whenever I see, your polyphonic sprees and stuff. Why, you're too?
Starting point is 00:26:50 But they're getting paid, are they? Why, you too? It's the mundane guy, isn't there? Do Ian Brown with a backing track? It's James Mercer with the shins, isn't it? He just fires the band every so often.
Starting point is 00:26:59 Right, okay. Treat them. And secures his power base. Yeah. Well, it's like, Cridler Filth will criticize recently for paying their musicians like $250 could a night
Starting point is 00:27:08 for, and it's like, But you're session musicians. Yeah. So I don't know what the right-go-rate is. I don't know what the union rate is, but... You can't be touring. You're not touring every day, are you?
Starting point is 00:27:19 You've not put your meals and stuff. You've not put the hours in the Danny Filth train in. You've not... You didn't do that documentary with his mum. You've not put anything into this principle of evil made flesh. The Seminole Cradle of Filth record. You were, by the way, for the record, I think are diabolically bad. Really?
Starting point is 00:27:34 Yeah, I think they're terrible. They were always sold as us as being, you know, we can do it too, even though we invented rock and roll. It's just performative nonsense, isn't it? Right, I see. I don't think it's anything worth getting out of bed for a person.
Starting point is 00:27:47 I had a lad who, um, I actually saw quite recently and he was still exactly the same. I mean, in Lester, who had his little, had little teeth installed and went, and if you said something, it upset him,
Starting point is 00:27:58 he would go, like he was, uh, a cat, I saw a great, I saw a great, let me, I can actually remember the name of the band as well,
Starting point is 00:28:06 right? So my mate Woody is massively into metal, all different genres of metal. he's the kind of guy that has to listen to something realizes he really likes it can't make out the vocals quick check if they're Nazis and if they're not
Starting point is 00:28:19 you really have to be careful yeah yeah yeah some of them I mean there's a big problem with like child abuse in that scene as well oh I mean like people were criticising the I think it's the least of AFI so I look at the state of him and they're going to leave him alone
Starting point is 00:28:33 he's the only one who's not a paed afound who's that I think uh no he's this fucking name oh he's got crazy he's got crazy He's got crazy hair with a mustache. Not AFI, is it? Who's he... Crazy hair with the mustache.
Starting point is 00:28:44 He's got crazy fucking hair, big curly hair and a mustache. Danny Havoc. Oh, okay. Yeah. You know, Danny Havoc? Yeah, it's a girl. Let me look about it.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Who did he... No, it's not Danny Havoc. He's a wrestler. Okay, I definitely recognize the name. Is there a Havoc? There's a Havoc guy. Singer. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Havok. Never mind. All right. Let me just tell the story. Yes. And I was sent him, I saw a fucking Instagram account of a band called Necropissor. Right, necropissor.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Yeah. But the lead singer is like 12 and he's fucking amazing. Right, yeah. So you know that guttural thing? He can do it? Yeah. Even though his voice hasn't broken? It's like that Japanese girl band.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Don't know they are. Baby metal. Don't know they are. It's a bad. It's a silly band. This necropissa though, I saw it and I was like, oh, this is going to be like one of those cringe accounts. Because he looks like...
Starting point is 00:29:40 Necropis are all over Instagram. Yeah. You know him, right? Yeah, yeah. They're fucking good. Yeah, yeah. Sounds brilliant. But, but, like, at that age,
Starting point is 00:29:49 you just sort of go, what have you... What can you bring to this? But it doesn't matter, because no one can understand what they're saying anyway. It doesn't matter. Okay, fine. They're not trying to be a blues artist.
Starting point is 00:29:57 No. Good point. Are they? They're just screaming into the void. It was Davy Havoc. Davey Havoc. From A.F.I. Okay, that sounds for a fire inside, right?
Starting point is 00:30:06 They famously did a Christmas album against their record company's wishes. Good on them. Get on them. This necrote, piss of video I saw, it was like it was introduced to this little 12-year-old kid going, this is a song called Castrated with a Shotgun. And I was like, this is going to be fucking terrible.
Starting point is 00:30:26 And it's not my kind of music, but he is a good singer, this kid. Get on him. He's got a big future, a bright future. possibly an edge year in collab before the end of the year. He'll do it. Yeah, anyway, let's go. All right, we'll be back on Thursday.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Get your bloody batteries in for crying out loud. Oh, we've also got to haze the new producer, Bruno starting next week. We do, yes. Give them a good run. Give them a good old going over. Newgey in. Yeah, hello at Lukepeachshow.com is the way to get in touch with the show. And we'll be back.
Starting point is 00:30:54 Don't ask, we don't haze them. We don't what? We don't hate people. It's a joke. The Luke and Pete Show is a stack production. and part of the ACAST creator network.
