Hello, hello, it's good to be back, it's good to be back Did you miss me Luke, while I was away? Did you hang my picture on the wall? Did you kiss me yeah, every single day? Although you couldn't kiss me at all And did you love me yeah, like a good little girl? Did you tell that naughty boy not to call? Did you love me yeah like a good little girl did you tell that naughty boy not to call did you love me yeah in your little world luke murr is back on the local page your round of applause um thank you for that at least part of that was gary glitter

i think all of it was going i don't know how much i don't know how much gary glitter wrote but um fitting hiding Thank you very much. I thought to myself, I'm really missing you, and I'm really missing doing my job, and that's now instantly evaporated in under 25 seconds. Well, good. That's what I'm here for. It's very good to see you.

It's very, very good to see you. Thank you for having me back. I thought you might have forgotten about me, a bit like a holiday romance. You said you'd write, you said you'd send postcards, and you didn't, and now you've just moved on as as i said uh before the record um it is a lot easier admin wise when you're on the show so it will retain and remain the lucan peach show yeah okay well that's great so absence has made the heart grow fonder but it's mostly for admin reasons

so um luke i'm slightly concerned that i hear that um a man is never more um egotistically potent i'm gonna say arrogant straight after the birth of a child and i'm worried that his podcast well there's no ceiling for me to move into i don't know any ceiling into i think you're like um that big red dog is his name Denver? What's that big red dog? Denver's the last dinosaur, isn't it? Yeah, he's my friend a whole lot more. Who's the big dog? Digbuff. I can't remember. Big red dog.

Digbuff the big red dog. You don't need to email in. I'll find out. They made a film with Jack Whitehall for fuck's sake. The last thing he said before we started this show is, could you please ask for some more emails? Because we haven't got any at the moment. Two minutes in, you said, don't email.

Don't email, don't email. The big dog, I'm worried that your house... Is it Clifford? Is it? I think it might be Clifford. The biggest dog in the world? I can't remember. Anyway, I can imagine your house, but with your head the size

of your living room just looking out going i have sired a child yeah i think um well first of all i should actually confirm that i have become a father and i'm obviously delighted to have done so and everyone's happy and healthy and it's an amazing experience and all those usual cliches i've actually found it quite humbling because it's very difficult to have a high opinion of yourself when you've had no sleep and you're changing the shitty nappy at 3.30 in the morning and literally no one gives a shit. And your baby basically just treats you with contempt. Yeah. So it's probably been the opposite. I also heard on Rick and Michael.

So you have been doing the lookup HR. Yeah, it's the same. It's the same thing. on the look of a child. Yeah, it's the same. It's the same thing. Rick and Michael on Eureka said that in their fatherhood episode

said that one of the things that happens to a man after he, shortly after he becomes a parent is your testosterone levels really drop. Really?

There's like an evolutionary reason for it. Obviously evolution wants, it's beneficial for the father to be around. And so, Right.

It seems like the testosterone levels drop. You're totally sexless yeah so you're like looking at the horizon for the next kind of thing yeah yeah so that's that's kind of that's probably part of it um but it's yeah it's been amazing it's been great um i've obviously missed you though peter i listened to some of the shows um you've made um when i was off oh i really help i really appreciate you keeping the uh keeping the home fires burning and doing your thing. I particularly enjoyed

you within a few minutes of the most recent show with long-suffering partner you have access to, Sarah. Literally just as an outburst, just calling yourself a dry, calcified worm. Yeah. I can't remember what that was. To be honest, that was at the end of a very long

drive from Cornwall. Yeah, I remember. I was informed that I had to record four shows, and then about a day or so before, I was informed I had to do an extra show, and I didn't really have a guest. And Sarah very kindly stepped into the breach once more, and I did a blow-off because I'd eaten some very rich food that week.

That's real. A lot of tomahawk steaks in Pete's life this week. No one calls them blow-off because I'd eaten some very rich food that week. That's right. A lot of tomahawk sticks in Pete's life this week. No one calls them blow-offs anymore. No. Little Tommy Squeakers. It used to be a blow-off.

Blow-offs used to be all the rage in like the 80s. Everyone used to say it. Yeah. We say in this house, we say pumps now. Pumps, yeah.

That was very much pumps was very much what we used to call them when we were kids. Yeah. Your Willie was your Pip. Fanny, I think, was just Fanny. Okay.

And pumps were little Tommy Squeakers. I've never used Pip. Yeah. I mean, maybe it was just mine. Maybe it just resembled a little Pip from an apple. So anyway, look, I think everyone enjoyed Monday's show, which was basically five solid minutes on toilet plunges and human shit, you calling yourself a dry, calcified worm,

and then you, in the most Alan Partridge quote possible, telling your life partner that if she died, her corpse would be worth £300,000 in the open market. And she could take that to the bank. And you also appeared to be labouring under the illusion that there are in your body livers, plural. Yeah. I now know why people like this show.

The problem is, Luke, when you're usually on the show, you're having to sort of react in real time. But the people out there, they can rewind and write down what we said. So we've just got to watch it, man, because I'm saying that we've got loads of livers. react in real time but the people out there they can rewind and write down what we said so we just gotta watch it man because i i'm saying that we've got loads of livers yeah maybe i do have a few more livers it would explain a lot actually yeah it's under heavy loads all of the time so yeah but i've enjoyed i've enjoyed listening to my in your absence as you're asking my absence sorry uh i'm very tired uh i i also enjoyed anthony anthony be on the show it's a

great showcase of the other stack shows we've got in the stable so i think that was a bonus for for people as well um but yeah other than that i'm just been just cracking on doing my thing mate just being a being a dad making bad jokes but there's nothing changing about that saying things shouting yeah yeah you haven't got i haven't got to do that you can't really understand me at the moment right okay there's no reasoning with them at this point is there he just wants milk right he shouting yeah you haven't got i haven't got to do that you can't really understand me at the moment right okay there's no reasoning with them at this point is that he just wants milk right he wants to have his nappy changed yeah and he wants to go to sleep for a bit it's not massively different to working with you no exactly yeah yeah um so yeah um i mean we'll move on. I guess we've both sort of said that fatherhood,

unless there's an actual story connected to it, it's actually quite a difficult listen for people who aren't fathers or mothers or can't or will or won't. I think you've got to be honest about it. I think you've got to understand that, like, you know, if I send 500 photos of my kid to people who don't have kids themselves. This is enemy number one in my life. You need to do something about him.

He's threatening me again. He's threatening me again. I've got it on tape. I just think that if I see a photo of someone else's kid, even as father myself it's kind of fine like it's interesting enough i guess like you know i'm pleased for them but it wears quite thin right so i think on that basis given that we're an audio show i don't think people want to hear over and over again about my baby i mean why would they want to hear that they want to hear about the sweet stuff i'm up to and all the cool things i do all the cool things you do so as a result what's the coolest thing

you've done in every episode will be 10 minutes long in the last three weeks what's the cool stuff that you've done there you are last three

I've done nothing have you watched have you consumed any media because you have a yeah you know you managed to sort of pile in quite a lot of media

in your deal River and I have watched basically we're now about six episodes from the end of The Sopranos. His first word

is going to be Gabagool. Gabagool. Brilliant. So we've done that. What else have we been watching? Because I do the night feeds

at the moment so I've been doing a movie pretty much every night. So last night was super bad. Why don't you watch a new film?

Why don't you sort of... Because it's really hard to concentrate right because because so you can do a new film but the thing is at any point you can just wake up right and it just becomes i've been doing 3m twitch streams why aren't you watching that if you could do that that would be fucking great actually i would love that i'll tell you what i mean you've you've got a Switch, you've got a PlayStation 5. There are a lot of excellent games coming out. You could not have become a father at a better time. Starfield's out, Spider-Man 2. Everything's coming out, Luke.

I did see a few games that I quite like the look of. Some more strategy games because you can play them at your own pace. Right, yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you know what I mean? So if I can get him down, he'll sometimes touch wood, he'll sleep for like four hours. If I can get him down, I can play a kind of slowish-paced video game because if it's turn-based or whatever, I can stop whenever I want.

I think the problem is I do still play PUBG when he's asleep, but I'm quite distracted because you never know what's going to happen. He's never going to wake up so i've been i've been filling my evenings but at the moment i'm on the schedule and lots of new parents will empathize with this i want a schedule where i don't really go to sleep until about three right and i'm up again at about eight so that's really all the sleep i'm getting at the moment so it's quite difficult to kind of maintain concentration on a movie. There's loads of movies I'd love to watch, like quite interesting ones. But I just think if a film's got anything about it whatsoever, I'm probably going to have to use my brain a little bit.

And that's just not happening at the moment. I've seen The Sopranos about three times. I'm just watching it again because it's like an easy watch. Yeah, I've not even watched it. And it won't be suitable for him, will it, when he gets a bit older? At some point, I'd have to say you can't watch that anymore. Get him out of the way. A friend was talking about him getting into anime

with his daughter. And he sort of goes, well, look, I mean, that's something that I could see myself getting into and we'll watch anime together. But he said, the problem is, every single anime, no matter what one you've chosen, there's always a Dirty Pervert character. Who's sniffing pants or looking up teenagers' skirts.

There's always a Dirty Pervert. It doesn't matter what it is, there's always a Dirty Pervert character. And he's got to be very diplomatic about... Is that why he likes it? That's why he likes it that's why he wants to choose something else to watch well it's just he wanted to watch anime with and he says no matter which one they choose there's always this dirty uh pervert character i don't know what it is i mean

it's just japanese i'm going to use the word culture very loosely but you know there's just always a dirty old who's like he's like a skilled, talented, ninja or whatever, but he's a pervert at the same time. It's a mixed bag. It really is. Oh, lordy. I think you should probably find someone else to get involved with, right? There's no shortage of content out there. No, true. Is there? Yeah.

That's basically why you like it, isn't it? Anyway, tell me a bit more about I know you spoke a bit about it on Monday, but tell me a bit more about Cornwall. Was it a bit about it on Monday, but tell me a bit more about Cornwall. Was it just a little break? Did you want to go away? Yeah, just to break away. Trying to find the lifeguard that saved your life?

In many ways. Well, last time I was there, when I jumped off my jet ski, after an hour and a half of jet skiing around, I lost my spectacles in the sea, didn't I? Yeah. You don't get on that well with the sea, do you? No, I really don't. I used to really enjoy it but not anymore but i um found my spect i didn't find my spectacles i hoped to find my spectacles uh on lusty glares beach um do you remember last year

we stayed in we went to cornwall and we went lusty glares beach you won't remember that bit but we did stay in a uh an airbnb uh that i put my foot through the scene yes you didn't go back to the same place you're seen of the crime so sarah booked one of their other properties and uh about a day before they went would you like the property you were staying in last time and i was like this sounds like some kind of trap yeah they're gonna get me and they're gonna point at the ceiling and no we were back in the same property that we were before and could you find your handiwork or not oh i mean they've not done a thing to it and it's got worse and it's falling to bits and things are hanging off it and this is your fault i know but i did it a year ago and they should have fixed it what annoyed me

was in one of the cupboards there was an entire DIY set, screwdrivers, hammers, paint, more importantly, and it was just in the cupboard. And that wasn't there when I needed it the most. I had to go to the DIY shop and buy some new tools and things. So you haven't learned your lesson because you spent all your time going through their cupboards? I didn't. Well, I don't think I'm going to put my foot through a ceiling or a floor

if I go through somebody's cupboards. But that was upsetting. I saw a jellyfish as big as my torso. We went to God, Cheddar Gorge. Yeah, how do you mention that? Cheddar Gorge is quite an interesting

place. It looks like fucking insane. Like, it looks like a California... Like, you're going to film in California? It looks like California. It's amazing. I mean, we went there as kids it's not that far it's in Somerset right, we used to go on holiday in Somerset as kids

so it's not that far from, I think it was on the way to when we used to go away as well so I've been there a few times as a kid, it is an incredible place as far as I thought that, so could you still go down through the caves and everything? I mean we had a dog so we couldn't really

do all that crap, I couldn't go down Because you used to be able to go through the caves and all that kind of stuff and the only thing it's not kind of known for now is isn't it the scene of that kind of discussion that Alan Partridge has with the SAS expert about Bill Oddie radicalising an arm of the RSPB

and taking Cheddar Gorge, taking hostages in Cheddar Gorge and asking him how he'd deal with it. That's what it just reminds me of now. And the guy goes to him, are you saying to me that... Because my understanding is the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds are entirely

non-violent, but they've been radicalised by Bill Oddie. Is Bill Oddie dead, by the way? No, I want to say he's alive and then I'll check and then he's not going to be, is he? Bill, and he's Billy Odds. 81 years young. Good stuff. I like

to know that and I probably think he's tucked up in his country pile, having a lovely time, peeking at birds out of his window. He's got a daughter called Bonnie Oddie. Yeah, he's fucked that, hasn't he? He's absolutely fucked that. But can I go back to the jellyfish bit that you said?

What was the kind of experience like? Because there are actually quite a few different types of jellyfish that you can see in Cornwall. Yeah. And most of them are fucking mad looking. Yeah. I reckon the one you talked about, the most common one,

isn't that the Lion's Mane? Well, last year, I, it was, we very much arrived when jellyfish were in bloom, so to speak.

And we, I saw some really, I checked up, like nasty ones, nasty fuckers. And, one of them was like, you know that,

I think I spoke about it last year, like it's not one organism, it's five or six organisms together that have... But most of them are harmless, right? Most of them are, to be honest. You know, a lot of them that I saw in the sea, I was like,

you're fine, you're fine, you're fine. And then there was one that's washed up and it was like, that looks like a nasty one. Nature's got a way of showing you that, hasn't it? Yeah, it's usually colourful and, you know, just absolutely spacey looking.

But this guy was absolutely... He's got a gun sometimes? He was absolutely... Some of them have guns for legs. Yeah, he was absolutely massive. It was like the size of my torso. It was horrible. Bloody horrible.

Yeah, so I remember being at the beach in Cornwall years ago and seeing... And I was... It was one of those situations where the tide was miles out and there's all these little rock pools around and I was walking to go for a swim and i saw a kid of about seven basically carrying a jellyfish i was like oh no what are you doing where's your parents well it was just there was a there was this uh a lot of jordys down there for some reason but there was this um he had like a one of those big you know bull master if he kind of big dogs and our little and uh he's like running a little dog is running towards uh the big dog

and and we're with big dogs if you're off the if they're off the lay they're invariably fine and we're not afraid of big dogs and we understand that you know it's it's you know it it's very rare that um a big dog you run into trouble with a big dog. But the bloke went, oh, I wasn't, and he was going, get back, don't come here, or something. And so, all right, we called Sammy back, and he was like, oh, no, I wasn't talking to you. I was talking to my dog.

He ate an entire jellyfish last year, and he was sick for ages. Oh, my God. Just imagine a big dog eating a big, big old jellyfish. They were the was sick for ages. Oh my God. Just imagine a big dog eating a big, big old jellyfish. They were the edgier, weren't they?

They really were. How's Charlie getting on? He's all right. It was not that restful. It was not a restful holiday simply because he's just constantly barking. Oh, really?

We're trying to sort of train out of him, but he's just very much, hey, hey you, oi. He's just that all the time i'm like oh god please how would you go why is why is it why is he like that and how would you go about stopping him i think you've got to um i think the the kind of you've just got to ignore him because if you look at him touch him ruffle his hair give him food that's when he knows the barking works so So you really just have to walk around. I've started walking around with

earplugs in because it's just like he just needs to learn. He just needs to learn. Your neighbour's going to be fuming. Your secret neighbour. It's fine. It's not that loud, but the tombra, it's quite piercing. So that was

something we had to do with it at dinner. But we'll get there'll get there we are we are that's one of the things i learned about becoming a father is like our neighbors are all really lovely whenever i see them they're a little bit oh we haven't had a thing from river and all the rest of it and one thing but one thing you learn is that actually it's probably the same with um with um sammy because he's so small when babies are that young they haven't really got any power. There's no power in their cry. You can't really hear it. So it's only when they get to probably a little bit older where they can start really getting the old lung busters going.

So presumably Sammy's just going to get louder as he gets bigger. He will, and hopefully he'll be quieter. But it's fine. It's just more like just at dinner. We can control the environment in the house, but when you're out having a bit of food and dog dog is barking you have to sort of go you have to look like you're doing something you know you have to sort of go oh let's sort that out or if you're back in the hotel room you've got to you've got to uh you've got to um stop him from barking

because you'll you know you'll get in trouble and we just constantly paranoid that someone was uh uh gonna phone saying your dog's barking you need to kill it or something it sounds quite stressful to be honest yeah but we're it's fine we we knew we knew what was gonna happen but um yeah that's i guess all part and parcel of having a pop pop um looky uh uh last night i uh did my speed awareness course oh shit i forgot about that was it? I was in my new car and I drove it. Your Jaguar, the Jag? The Jag. I drove my car too quickly, 48 in a 40.

Without realising it, presumably, because it's a smooth car. It's so smooth. And yeah, it's just a faster car. And it was like the second day I had it and all that. You refused to tell me what it was before. Speed awareness course it is and uh and that's an interesting thing it was all on zoom guy called levi who lives in birmingham doing them all and and it was just two and a half hours of yeah andy brussell kind of warned me about

this because uh he knows what's brussell been speeding he He knows somebody who did a speed awareness course, I'm going to say. Really? Brassel's like so chill. I'm not saying Andy Brassel did a speed awareness course. I'm saying that Andy Brassel knew someone who did a speed awareness course. No, I'm saying that he definitely did. You can say that. Fine, you can say it. Right, he said that there was a woman who would not stop

trying to defend her position as someone who broke the law. You know what I mean? And I had that in mind where a woman would not stop saying, well, I don't know why I'm here because, you know, I was just, shut up! Get off.

Just say it. We're all here for a fucking reason. We're all here for a fucking reason. Just fucking shut up and get on with it. And then a bloke told everyone that he'd killed a man with his train. Oh, you being serious?

I was like, it was almost like a bust. What opportunity has he got to say that? Well, you know, well, it's all about safety and, you know, don't kill people with your car and all that stuff. All that good stuff. What's a train got to do with it? It's all very necessary. He said, you know, how would you feel if you did this?

He went, I've killed a man with my spray. Fucking hell, really? I'm like, whoa. You should laugh, but that is crazy. No, it's wild, isn't it? But yeah, he drives a bus now, so watch this piss. What was his kind of, what was his vibe? How was he saying it?

Well, he was kind of, he'd got his lighting all wrong on his Zoom call. That's annoyed you, isn't it? Well, he was backlit, so he got his lighting all wrong on his Zoom call. That's annoyed you, isn't it? Well, he was backlit, so he could be doing anything, to be honest. He looked like the smoking man in The X-Files. He's just kind of never really seen properly. But yeah, just awful. Wasn't there a bloke during COVID who lost his job because he got caught having a tug on a Zoom meeting?

Oh, that must happen so, so often. So often. What are you doing? Yeah, I mean, Jesus. Do you reckon they did it on purpose? For the danger? Nah, for the danger. I don't do as many Zoom calls.

I do a lot of Riverside. I do a lot of podcast recordings. You never know what I'm up to. Oh, my camera's gone down. I'm just doing something else. I think, to be honest, Pete I do a lot of podcast recordings. You never know what I'm up to. Oh, my camera's gone down. I'm just doing something else. I think, to be honest, Pete, by now, if you don't mind me saying, I've made my peace with the things you do. To be perfectly honest.

But, like, do you remember, there's these people who will go around, like, public Zoom meetings. Because you can sort of troll internet for Zoom links and stuff and jump on. Council meetings and stuff like that. Council meetings and stuff and you don't really need a password. You can just jump on

and play some very graphic, usually gay porn and, you know, and there's something lovely about seeing, and then you upload the video that you've captured of all the people reacting

to your, you know, big old fucking dildo going, oh, my man's bomb and you put it online, and it's really funny to see the gamut of reactions through all of the people who are on the call. So it ranges from people who are just, like,

not really paying attention to people who are instantly shocked to people, usually older people, who are just going, sorry, I can't really see what's going on there. And then younger people who are just fucking cracking up. It's usually like some kind of lecture or meeting. I love stuff like that.

So, you know, in summary, I would have loved my speed awareness course to incorporate some of that. Why didn't you do something like that? Why didn't I do something like that? Seriously, if you did do that, if you kind of just completely... So you turned up and you said, I've got to be here because I've been told I've got to.

I'm here now. I mean, what's expected of you? Because I'm surprised you were on it given that you're someone with a reputation who just throws money at every problem. I don't think you can really throw money. I'm not Charles and Zogby. You can't just get someone else to do your...

Can't you just choose to pay the fine, though, and not do the Speed Awareness course? No, you pay the... I think you pay for the Speed Awareness course. You pay for the Speed Awareness course and if you don't, you get the points on your licence. Right. And I'm in a quite precarious position because in the first two

years of getting your driving licence... You can only get six points. You can only have six points and then they take your licence off and you've got to do your like do your test again but look i felt the need for speed i thought i did i was up with the the beak and now i'm now you've got a jaguar saloon car it's just amazing it's just i can't wait to see you in it. Why is it funny? I went to the shop. I went to the car shop. I gave him my old car. I said, that seems like a lot more car for a little bit more of an outlay.

And I got it. Yeah, you told me the story. I just think it's funny. Why do you think it's funny? You've got a big, long car. I'm a big, long man. I think you're making a category mistake here. I'm not bothered by the size of it.

I think it's just funny. Look, I'll put it out to the listeners. Tweet us, email in, hello at lukeandpeach.com. Is it funny that Peach is driving a Jaguar car? I think it is. You may disagree. Yeah, but I didn't know that Jaguar has such a pathetic reputation of men of a certain age buying a so-called premium luxury car.

For me, the reputation is it's driven by a man who's potentially got, you know, some kind of problematic relationship with alcohol, who's been kicked out by his wife and is now living in the back of it and sweating mouthwash every morning and putting a load of aftershave on. That's what I think of.

Very rooey boot, that's all I'm saying it does suit you perfectly yeah exactly yeah I'm actually annoyed by the size of the boot of my car because I

completely underestimated how much fucking stuff I needed and I had all the stuff we had all the stuff we needed when we when we became parents but it was very hard to visualize it all you

know with you know needing all of it at the same time, putting it in. And it's just, I don't feel like we've, I feel like if I had my time again, I'd maybe have bought a different shaped car with a slightly bigger boot. Like a, like your Kia Sportage's, a tall kind of hatchback. That's what you said you were going to go for. I know. You bottled it for some reason.

All I'm saying is, can we swap cars? Yeah, fine. Absolutely fine. All right, just bring yours around. All I'm saying is, can we swap cars? Yeah, fine. Absolutely fine. Alright, just bring yours around. You're doing better, Nick, than mine. Mine's covered in fucking ad blue and piss. Let's have a little ad break, and then when we come back, I guess we've got to do some batteries, because it's Thursday. I've done batteries for weeks. I know. Bloody exciting, isn't it? So we'll see you in a minute.

It's the Luke Peachy IP Dollars and Job by Luke Moore, and every single Thursday we talk about your battery brands that you've found inside of your bits of electronics. And you will find that Luke Moore has not been on the show for a couple of weeks, so he has, I have to say, we did have a few kind of good new players there, Luke, so I'm pretty pleased with that. Good. Well, let's see if we can get some more.

All right. Johnny says, hello gentlemen, my girlfriend found this beauty in the back of a calculator at work i can't stop laughing at it as a new player entered the game pawny sanig pawny sanig so is that supposed to be like a rip-off of panasonic yes like phonetically yes yes so it I'll look like a Panasonic yes so it's not Pony Sanic it's Pony Sanic which is kind of weird

right the Y I mean it's bottom of the barrel IP infringement isn't it really because it's what company

is Panasonic a British company no it's got to be is it Panasonic Pana oh they're japanese apparently panasonic yeah but why would they cut what was it originally called then pana pana it was originally called mats matsushita electric manufacturing works i see right okay i see so they are japanese apparently

they're headquartered in osaka pete's right up your street anyway Pony Sanig they are not new players Johnny you're very close but no cigar I'm afraid they were sent in first by Michael Coleman in May of 2021 so just over a couple of years ago you're only the second person to send them in as I said but you're not a new player I'm afraid but thank you very much for

having a go at it. I'm reading in the Hiragana or Katakana in this case, it's pronounced Panasonicu Horodingusu. Right. Holdings. Just Holdings. Panasonicu Panasonic

Horodingusu. Holdings. Holdings. Nice. Right. Next one. Oh, God. There's the big man. Speaking of which. There's the big man. Speaking of which. There's the big man. The problem... Is the doorbell gone or something?

The doorbell's gone, and he, after some light criticism from Luke Moore about how little I can hear the doorbell from my apology cabin, I got an extender for my doorbell. Is Sammy in the apology cabin still? Yeah, and so he'll calm down in a second. What, is Sammy in the apology cabin?

He is, yeah, well it's the only place they're gone, it's the only kids really so I hear him have a little baby howl Oh, he's excited He is, he is excited but he'll stop in a bit It's alright Sam, we're fine Sammy!

Right, I'll just give him a ruffle. All right, give him a little ruffle, and I'll fill in the meantime. The second battery that's been sent is Mo Energy from Andy. He says, hi, Luke and Pete. I thought I would shoot my shot at a possible new battery brand. The Wi-Fi I have access to bought us both a Mo Health Hurricane protein shake, Mo Farah endorsed, and I found the attached batteries Mo Energy

with a jazzy tagline also on the battery so the battery is Mo Energy and it says power on the go do you get do you get the feeling

that like all the people like there's so many stories of celebrities who missed out on the George Foreman grill that they won't

let it happen again so they'll sign the name or any old shite but Hulkamania Hulkamania Pasta, whatever it's called. Yes.

What was it? What was it? He had a Hulk Hogan. He had a pasta brand. Yeah. Yeah, he had a pasta shop instead of it, didn't he? Anyway, so Andy ends

his email by saying, would this make the list as a new battery brand with them being endorsed by a celebrity slash sports person? We haven't had Mo Energy sent in before. before yeah i'm thinking that

that if if i was a celebrity and i and i got like and i had a thing called you know more energy whatever more more health hurricane protein shake i think more energy i think i'll be more proud of the fact that i got my name on a battery whoever gets their name on a battery it's great yeah it's an easy name to get on a battery because it's just M-I-O, isn't it? Do you reckon we should start a Luke and Pete show battery brand? That would be fucking great. You could probably do that. Probably you could just skin them, right? Yeah.

I mean, someone must be able to skin them, surely. Have we not had that idea before? That'd be so good. A lapsed battery. Two weeks away. We're far on all cylinders. Powered by lapsed energy. if you're listening to this and you can help us

with that hello at lucanpeach.com we'd love to do it so Andy congratulations you've got a new player Pete the final email

is from Gethin isn't it so do you want to read that one Gethin says good day gents I found this in a torch at work

I'll admit I haven't listened back to the entire Lucan Pete show catalogue to see if it's there but is Ledlenza a new player I'm pretty sure

I replaced them or something else with a Wink battery, but I haven't taken a photo and will have to go find where it went. P.S. I'm unsure whether you're watching Succession, but my wife is, and I get a lot of Pete Donaldson energy from the Roman Roy character played by Kieran Culkin, although admittedly I only catch glances and bit parts. Cheers, Gethin.

I've had that a few times i'm a tiny little boy with receding hairline uh must have been in the office must have been in the office yeah send pieces of my wanger to my dad you probably have done that's my boy that's my boy it's definitely there's definitely roman roy energy about you everyone says it all the time don't they so anyway um that's that's for sure the case. But Gethin, you are the second person to send lead lens batteries in

after our friend Steve, Steve Nickel, who sent them in in September of last year. Presumably it's not that Steve Nickel, the great footballer from the 90s and the 80s. I'd love it if it was.

So you are the second person to send in Lead Lenzer. By the way, before we go, very, very briefly, you get to watch a lot of kind of weird TV when you're doing night feeds, right? Yeah. And there's obviously so many channels now. A lot of them just flip over to teleshopping

in the middle of the night. Well, that's what I mean. It used to be that there would be actual TV shows that were worth watching back in the middle of the night or well that's what i mean like it used to be that there would be actual tv shows that were worth um you know watching back in the day like they were unique or interesting or yeah it's a bit of post-pub television i think we spoke about this with i think uh maybe mark from exploding heads like i i think yeah like it used to be way more interesting now it's just either telly shopping uh those those those tv shows that um uh try and take money off you um called the vault and stuff like that.

They don't even spend money on films anymore. They just sort of switch over to something different. Yeah, and so I'm pretty sure I'm right in saying The Wire started out as a late night, maybe BBC Two show. The Wire? Yeah. So The Wire had, the first couple of seasons of The Wire, obviously, were in the u.s

yes but i don't think it was i think obviously it's an hbo show i don't think it was picked up here originally oh so it's like one of the shows like seinfeld that they put 11 like on the gary shandling show and stuff i think it was just like put on really late the only thing i could think of is just maybe it was bundled up in all this kind of here's a load of procedural crime shows that you can put on your on your schedule and it was only later on and the same thing happened i think around the middle period of breaking bad okay breaking bad i might be wrong here so people can get in touch tell me if i am but i'm fairly certain that breaking bad wasn't picked up by any tv network here and and that's how Netflix got it.

Yeah, okay. That's fair. It made me think at the time, how shit have you got to be as a TV fucking executive to go watch Breaking Bad and go, nah. I'm sure it was picked up by, I don't know. It was originally. It was, and then it got dropped.

Ah, interesting. Anyway, but the point I was just going to make was, before Sammy barks us off air, is that I went about two and a half weeks without seeing any footage of Donald Trump because I've just been so busy. Right, yeah, yeah. And then last night, I was up at like 2am

and he was doing a speech after his arrest and stuff. He looks absolutely fucking mad now. What, didn't he sort of say that? He said, they indicted me. I sort of say that they indicted me i did nothing wrong and they indicted me lovely little clip what you felt because because he's so prevalent it's almost a bit like trying to watch your yeah watch your family member get older if you see them every day you don't really notice it right yeah take a three-week break from um take a three-week break from um looking at donald trump

that's what i'll say and then come back and and and i cannot believe what he is accused of he has to go down this time he has to go down like the things he's done the things he has access to the things he's done and what is on record he has to go down look he has. He has to. Did you see what Kevin McCarthy said? He's a prominent member of the Republican Party. He basically said in an interview live on telly, yeah, but the thing is, he stored them in the bathroom because there's a lock on the door.

I don't think that's the point. One of those little hoes. Yeah, I don't think there's any kind of instruction on the classified document bit where they say, if you are going to take them home and show them to your mates, keep them in the bathroom because there's any kind of instruction on the classified document bit where they say if you are going to take him home and show him to your mates keep him in the

bathroom by the way bathrooms lock from the inside you fucking maniac somebody said somebody said that imagine

all of like the you know the Iranian Saudi Chinese spies who have been like living

out of Mar-a-Lago for the past few years and imagine those who came back to base with nothing in their hands, their handlers must be fucking fuming all this stuff is just fucking in a shower in a bathroom. Well the problem is they probably haven't been

they probably haven't been going back with an empty hand have they? No, exactly. And there was a Washington I think it was the Washington Post a while back did a thing where they sent like an undercover person to Mar-a-Lago. Yeah. Who I think, I don't think it was when, it was after Trump,

but obviously it was, it was after he stopped becoming, stopped being president. But of course they all get access to all the briefings and stuff as part of, as part of all that kind of thing. I think,

I think this undercover person from the Washington Post just walked into Mar-a-Lago, just walked up to his dinner table. Right, yeah, yeah, yeah. Where he was eating. Matt, this is Matt. The whole thing is insane. I think you're right.

I think it's got to fucking... I mean, this won't happen, but technically speaking, he could be president from prison. There's nothing in the Constitution to stop that happening. Really? Oh, brilliant.

So this has not been legislated for before. So he could run. prison there's nothing in the constitution to stop that happening really oh brilliant so this has not been legislated for before so like he could he could he could run so i don't know if you know but um there was during the troubles in northern ireland there's a different country a different set of laws but just out of interest during the troubles bobby sands who was a republican hunger striker um who you know sadly you know died for through hunger strike to raise awareness for the plight of republicans in northern ireland he ran as a candidate for the parliament and he won right okay from prison yeah um sorry yeah because he was a he was a political you know considered himself a political prisoner in Northern Ireland, in hunger strikes.

And when he was literally dying from a hunger strike, he became an MP. Yeah. Which is so, I mean, it has happened. It has happened before. Yeah. It's a mad thing what's going on over there. But anyway, that's a digression.

Let's get out of here and let people go away and enjoy their weekends. And we'll see them on Monday, Peter, won't we? Yes. And I'll let Sammy out for his morning shout your neighbours must be loving it mate they're already
