Welcome to the Chaos Engine, it's the Logan Patesaw. Ho ho hey, I'm Pete Donaldson, I'm joined by Mr. Loki Moore. How you doing Loki Moore? The Chaos Engine. The Chaos Engine, do you remember that video game back in the 90s? One of the BitPak Brothers ones. The Descent Into Darkness. Let's do, um, let's

just do time travel gothic steampunk today. Yeah, well, you know I'm a fan. I like anything steampunk. I like anything only foes and horses. I like anything that crosses. Imagine a steampunk. I'm gonna go to an AI and type in steampunk Uncle Albert

and Uncle Albert's adventures in the world of steampunk. I can't wait to get this recorded out the way and see those messages. I know, right? Wow. Every time I'm doing a night feed,

I'll flick through the channels. For your son, you should release the ever-might-be-toys. I'm actually a very, very... Just eating 15 craft cheese slices protein laden athlete I need to get up

every two hours every time I'm doing a night feed for my son and actually for any of the assorted neighbours who want to come

into my house between the hours of 1 and 4am they're welcome it's an open door policy there's mulled wine you can even just

knock on the door and then run away that's what I've had yeah people do do that no one's turned up to my night feed sessions yet no um oh yeah but when fucking when fat boy slim does it it's really popular um there's no baby right okay yeah there's no beach yeah um but anyway when i do my night feed sessions like um death in vegas is the contino sessions um but mine's much cooler right um what i tend to do is flick through all the tv channels right yeah and you know you fly

by listen your part timers your bbc ones they flick over to bbc news at like 1am yeah they they do that do their weird international news from like um uh i think i've i think i've got this confused asia watch singapore asia watch it's asia watch for a bit yeah um but your proper hardy types your daves your golds and your watches they're putting on decent stuff yeah they're well they're bashing out endless episodes of um sitcoms and um one of them is only Fools and Horses and every single episode is always something problematic going on

always is it on during the middle of the night or is it kind of so it's basically saying if you're up at this time it's your dad he's got a poorly knee and he's been walking up by stabbing pins in it your dad, he's got a poorly knee and he's been woken up by stabbing pains in it.

And he's just got something to calm down. Your dad refuses to go to the doctor for what is possibly a quite serious heart complaint. So he's insisting on sleeping every night, sat upright in the armchair. Yeah, nice. Yeah, like it. And anyway, I don't think this is a watershed issue because it's not like it's offensive stuff to children. you shouldn't be doing like racist stuff anyway right yeah like i don't think it

matters that it's 1am no but i don't think racism is less important no but i just think they're just gonna i think just if you're gonna play that stuff if you imagine paying for as a tv company all of that stuff and you say you buy it for five years and you've rented it and then things massively change in those times. You must be kicking yourself. Because if you're a gold... I bought Little Britain. If you're a gold,

Only Fools is probably one of your headline acts. Five a day, one of your five a day, innit? Definitely one of your five a day. Well, Luke, I went on a bit of Only Fools and Horses pilgrimage over the weekend. You'd be pleased to know. La, la, la, la. What did you say? It was like a Jolly Boys outing?

I had a Jolly Boys. I knew some Jolly Boys. I went to Belgrade, which is obviously the place where... You went to Belgrade last weekend? I went to Belgrade... Without me knowing about it? Why do you keep doing this? I sent you a picture of some Only Fools and Horses socks

because, as discussed, Only Fools and Horses was massive in Belgrade. They even had a Boise and Belgrade documentary last year, didn't they, before he died? They did,

but there was no context to the message. I just thought they were a nice pair of socks. I didn't know you were there. I was in a market in the arse end of nowhere in Belgrade.

I'd been tipped off that it was a cool antique market. It wasn't. It was just a place to buy sinks and old bits tipped off that it was a cool antique market it wasn't it was just a place to buy sinks and old bits of washing machine uh it was a sock seller so i bought um some only frozen horses socks um some lahane socks remember that film with yeah and some joker socks uh from a friend who hates the joker so um yeah all good should we give the

only frozen horses socks away yeah maybe we should from belgrade um you know i i got on two illegal trams i didn't pay for for the for the pleasure because i couldn't really figure out the ticketing system so that doesn't make them illegal trams i just makes you being illegal for being on the tram the tram is perfectly legit don't bring them into it luke i know you've been up with your've been up with your dodgy views at 1am watching only fuzz and hosses, but no man is illegal, all right? So I have some bloody respect.

You know, once when I was in Prague, right? I went to Prague in like 1998, before everyone was going there for stag weekends and stuff. And the reason I went is because we had a few days off between our summer job and going to uni or whatever it must be 1999 actually thinking about it and um we were there was just when they started doing these flights to prague so we went there and uh me and a few mates and it was like it was actually quite like not intimidating but quite edgy yeah there's no other british people there i went in

like 2002 but yeah yeah and. And no one spoke English or anything. And we did exactly that with the tram. We got on the tram, not knowing you had to get a ticket beforehand, and a man with a moustache

grabbed us, opened his hand out like that, and just had a big coin in the middle of it. Right, okay. And we were like, oh, that's a nice coin.

Thanks for showing it to us, or whatever. And it turns out that was like the badge for a police officer. Oh. They had a golden coin in his badge. You thought it was the prug. You thought it was a charming chocolate box image of what a tramsman would be. Yeah, we just became absolutely farcical because he couldn't speak any English.

Our phones didn't work, so we couldn't translate. And there's no translate app then anyway. Yeah. And it was just like a lot of gesticulation until one of my friends Chris just gave him a note a denomination of a note and he was like

nodded and just left right yeah yeah yeah fair I was pretty sure we got fined for that but I don't know I don't really know

what happened don't really know how much money was handed over yeah yeah it is just so it happens to the best of us so you didn't get caught

in Belgrade no? I didn't get caught in Belgrade there was apparently plenty of plainclothes officers around, so I was just kind of, as I was on, I was just constantly sort of eyeballing everyone to see if they were a narc or a member of the police fraternity. But I got away with it.

I got on three trams, didn't get in trouble or nothing. I don't think I've ever seen you eyeball anyone. If anything, you're alien to eye contact. No, yeah. Well, by eyeball, I mean look at their eyeballs through the reflective surface of a window or other people's eyes. I will stare into your eyes to look at someone else. You don't want to stare into my eyes too long

because after a while, the vortex stares right back at you. My little coin will pop out. So how was the trip? Did you go with the partner you have access to? No, she's not that interested in Serbia. I was going to say, there's no back at you little coin my little coin will pop out so how was the trip did you go with the partner you have access to no um she's not that interested in so there's no way she's going she's not really interested in in that that the cityscapes of uh the former yugoslavia as you know the comments and uh good god um the uh um boss of yugoslavia at tito um what a what an interesting chap he was what i like about blokes who've been in charge of countries for ages, they do get given gifts a lot.

They do get given... Most of this Yugoslavia museum was... I know you're not listening because you're Googling. So you tripped me up on some facts about Tito. Oh, but it's interesting what you say about Tito. The guy who came to power as president of Yugoslavia on the 14th of January, 1953. Correct, yeah, he was in exile.

He was roughly in power until about May 1980, wasn't he? He was there for a long time. But I think with Pillar being there for a long time, all of the dignitaries from different parts of the world come. You know, he's a big fan of selassie and you know you know all that all that um and uh and they all sort of pop around and they all drop off some like little gift and stuff so this yugoslav museum was just all motherfucking gifts for tito just everything was like bits and bobs the key to los angeles here the key to egypt here like he's

beautifully ornate keys and stuff that have been handed to to to the to the guy at the top of the yugoslavia and then but just like little things like um when the factory would make a radio the first off the uh production block the first off the uh the old belt would be a gift to the to the dear leader and right um it was like there were beautiful bits of like 70s radio computer television stuff it was right up my street i just come back with anything i didn't know because uh well i tried to go to an antique fair but uh turns out i just went to go and look a lot of sinks. You could have done an Elon Musk, couldn't you? Could have done it. What do you mean, like an Elon Musk?

Let that sink in. Yes, nice. Let that sink in on the Air Serbia flight that was two hours late. Yeah, yeah, brilliant. Oh, Air Serbia, huh? So tell me about the Indy bar there. There was an Indy bar. There was one rock bar that we went to that wasn't actually,

they were playing like, they were very reluctant to let us in, or certainly reticent to tell us why they weren't going to let us in. They were basically saying, look, they're just going to be playing Serbian pop music. And I was like, that sounds fun. I want to hear some Serbian pop music. And I mean, it was quite alienating because I didn't understand what was going on really.

I've seen you in indie bars in this country though not really know what's going on no exactly as soon as they start playing anything after a certain time i'm like machine gun kelly who's that um but i uh i yeah 10 10 out of 10 belgrade a lot of fun and uh the food was excellent i love cucumbers turns out there's just a lot of cucumber to realize that yeah but i to go to Serbia to realise that. Yeah, but I don't eat them here. They seem boring, but over there, they're the respite from the heavy mince dishes

that they've got. And we had this pizza from a place called Buccos, which is like a street thing. You just bought a pizza and you just ate it in the street like a hound. And their little flourish on the pizza, and pizza purists would not care to hear about this, was like this beef cream that they would smear on the top.

Wow. Gerard Shulcastle's ears are burning. I'll get you a picture, buddies. They shouldn't be. They're well protected with that hair. The beef, they just added this kind of beef. They call it salad, but it's not. It's beef cream.

And all of the places around. Almost like a horseradish type vibe. No, it's just beef flavoured cream. I don't know that anyone listening to this, and I'm including myself in this, will know what you're talking about. Imagine like a non-sour cream, right? Or a sour cream.

The taste of beef that you just smear on. Like a really thin beef pate. Is this a dream? A creamy beef pate. Was this a dream? Tell me if this was a dream. A Serbian beefy cream pate on top of a pizza. There's nothing more simple.

So you walked into down the street in Serbia, bought a pizza, and then they put beef cream on it. Beef cream on it, yeah. And is that what it was called or you calling it that yourself i i don't know they call it salat or salad or something but i i gave it a google i don't think it's a normal thing uh and certainly the pizza purists on on reddit that my mate posted it on uh very yeah it was good it was very nice very nice very good well done everyone yeah but uh all good stuff it's troubling stuff isn't it? It is troubling stuff but that's why I got

the fact that the Y-U-U-R-L suffix lasted until 2010 because Yugoslavia obviously was still existing when the internet was kicking off and they maintained a Yugoslavia presence technically on the internet until 2010

and then it got absorbed by Montenegro. It's kind of weirdro sometimes it's just the explanation is that people someone just there's no one around to turn it off or someone just doesn't know whose responsibility it is that's what happened with um yeah that's what happened with the churchill war rooms you know the churchill war rooms no so the churchill war rooms are a museum i'm familiar with the churchill war rooms but all right so basically um it was obviously the nerve center from where Churchill and his team ran the war effect of the Second World War.

And it's fascinating. It's well preserved and you can go down there and you can look around. It's good. Smells of cigars, I bet. Absolutely fucking reeks. Yellow.

Oh, it was cigars. It was cigars. Basically, what you find out is that Churchill loved the cigars. Everyone already knows. Loved to drink. He was basically permanently pissed.

Right? Let the man sleep. He didn't sleep very much. And he was just... And also, by the way, it goes understated, I think, how old he was in the Second World War. Right. Was he absolutely ancient?

Or was he younger and looked older because he was just drinking pot all day? I think he's in his mid to late 60s. Oh, right. In the key parts of the Second World War. Yeah. So anyway, and he's pissed. And he's galloping around the church at the cabinet war rooms underground in a massive pink romper suit. He's not running around in a pink suit.

Just telling people what to do. Sticking stickers on things. Right? Anyway, if you haven't got a chance to go to the Churchill war rooms, that's a general flavour. And there's also some chat now about how Churchill perhaps wasn't the best guy in the world and he said some stuff that was a bit problematic. All that kind of usual conversation happens these days.

It's the David Gerson issue, isn't it? A little bit more important. Wait, yeah, yeah, exactly. So, I mean, the Only for the Norses is quite offensive. That's what I mean by that. issue isn't it like a little bit more important wait yeah yeah exactly so like i mean the uh only for us is quite offensive that's what i mean by that so churchill said some stuff he did some stuff these days people wouldn't appreciate right yeah i mean what i would say is and i thought this at the time when i went there if you don't like that you're gonna hate the other fella i'll tell you what you know i've got news for you, buddy. Yeah, if you're offended by that, fair enough.

But yeah, the other geezer, he wasn't any better. He was markedly worse. Anyway, the point being, the original point is that when the cabinet war rooms was no longer needed, i.e. the war ended, Churchill leaves power as prime minister, I think just before Japan surrendered in August of 45. The map room, the nerve centre, all the tech,

it's not needed, right? Yeah. But because they were focused on just rebuilding London and getting on with peace and everything, the last person out literally just turned the lights off, locked it up, and that was that. Right. And it didn't get opened again until like 1980.

Oh, they didn't sort of think to, right, okay the point where when they went back down there um you know like sugar was rationed in the second world war right they were opening like drawers of like prominent um air force offices and stuff but based down there i open the drawers and there's like little sugar cubes still in there people's rationing still left there yeah and and so they've kept it as much as they as preserved as they could as to what it would have been like

I mean to be honest I know what I'm like after a party I don't want to deal with the recycling so like you imagine how many clinky bottles

were down there well my neighbour does it at like 3am does he? is that how you know because you're up and about lovely it's just like clinking stop the clinking guys it's like the universe decides

that the exact second after my son will fall asleep someone does the recycling at any time quite a nice um quiet road as well for that area like i'm surprised that yeah the front two rooms do you know what it is mate it's It's annoying middle-class people recycling, and it's Deliveroo drivers, baby. Right, okay. Reven their little putt-putts. Reven their little putt-putts. They are very shrill, those little putt-putts, aren't they?

Yeah, and it's surprising, because at that time in the morning, it is very quiet, so any noise at all just sounds mad. And also, this time of the year, you've got the windows open, so it's a tricky situation. But yeah, what are you going to do? And the um the other thing about churchill during that time was like what he was regularly doing was he was telling everyone he was going to bed and he was going into his room and then he was getting a couple of his like most trusted staff and just fucking off again and climbing up to the top of like down street and standing on the roof

watching the bombs come down and stuff. So they say in that Churchill War Rooms thing, which is a tourist attraction now and it's very well worth visiting, they say he only slept in his bed three times. He was just cutting about doing other shit. Just doing other stuff. He's basically a maniac.

Yeah. He's basically a maniac who won. Yeah. And also I guess you would think that is it just our technological... I mean, there's a million reasons and the war is obviously a massive thing, but was he massively advantaged

by stuff like technology? Like, you know, we just had a lot of good engines and stuff. I think people... All the kind of accounts, like he was an amazingly charismatic and inspirational leader. And in that period of time when the UK... We're all good on a couple of pints though, aren't we?

Listen, it ain't a couple of pints, let me tell you that. It's basically, they even put it in there. They put in there the routine. It's like, wake up, champagne, champagne, champagne, brandy after lunch, champagne, whiskey, whiskey, champagne, brandy after dinner. And he never got offered a talk spot role no he wouldn't no he was doing some of the bbc stuff to be fair wouldn't

he i swear did do some bbc and which which i've got which brings me on to another story that i heard um from a friend of mine uh this week that um i'm not gonna name them because they didn't give me permission to tell this story but i'm sure you'll be able to work it out. They were doing a show on an evening for the BBC way back in the day, like 20, 30 years ago. And at one point, they didn't have a studio for them. And so they said, yeah, we'll put you in this studio. And it wasn't a regular studio.

And he said, okay. And they went into Broadcasting House, as it was then. Broadcasting House is the one that they've kind of closed down now with flats there right yeah which is a fucking extraordinary act of cultural vandalism if ever I've heard one

yeah fucking hell I mean how old was that building though realistically I mean it's iconic but it's only iconic because they showed it all the time

I mean they make probably just as much use out of yeah but the king's speech the king's speech is from there the church addresses to the public

after the war if I wanted you know rent that Airbnb. It doesn't need to be old to be important, Peter. And speaking as someone who is old and unimportant. And important, yeah. So basically they go to the BBC Broadcasting House and instead of going to a regular studio,

they go like five stories down in a lift. And they come to a room with like a submarine door in it. And they go in there and they record in there and it's a submarine door in it and they go in there and they record in there and it's a bunker studio. Right, yeah. And Churchill used to broadcast from there. Wow.

And the backside of the studio is another door straight to a tube platform. Oh, cool. That takes him back to wherever he goes. Nice. And up until fairly recently, that was still a working broadcastable

usable studio and and churchill would either record his addresses to the british public during the war on um from his from his house and it would be broadcast from somewhere else or he would do it do it but yeah um hello he's the original time he was the original Mother! He was the original Timeline Scholar. Always broadcasting about his drinking, about his war. So apparently his code was he'd ask for coloured water. Coloured water. And it would be like whiskey with a load of water in it. And there's a video in that Churchill War Rooms of a woman who was his secretary.

And she's like properly old-fashioned and posh, obviously. And she's going, people said that Winnie used to drink an awful lot, but he didn't really. And then she just goes and lists about 400 alcoholic units. She's brilliant. Brilliant. And what I would say, Pete, on the kind of the efficacy of Churchill's stuff,

it's generally widely accepted that he was a hugely inspirational leader, mate. It's not like there's other reasons you need to scratch around for. I'm just saying, I just don't know how he managed to sort of do it when he was absolutely half cut. I think that about,

do I tell you, did I ever tell you, I think that about early Metallica concerts. What do you mean? As in like? Like, go onto YouTube and type in Metallica live 1983 or whatever and they're fucking amazing

yeah and they're all absolutely battered like Jones Hetfield Jones Hetfield's like I was pissed for like 10 years yeah

and didn't didn't they the music's really fast and really technical didn't they broadcast to like 1 million people didn't they sort of

do a show to 1 million people in St. Petersburg or something yeah there was a there was a live it was a live show at some old air base in Russia wasn or something yeah there was a there was a live it was a live show at some old air base in Russia wasn't there

yeah absolutely I think it was them in ACDC yeah yeah have a bit of that they've all hacked

the empire though you are no they've all hacked the empire yeah exactly he's not hacking the empire

after an FA Cup final did he pee in a bin in a live oh how are the maggots in your bin by the way maggots have long gone and left me

it was bin day to day and so I double checked and we're broadly maggot free which is great unless they've all turned into flies and I'll be getting them

with my my big tennis racket later be like a plague be like a big plague would you discount would you be surprised if I was the first person to experience the plague?

You know, the world's heating up to a ridiculous degree. China's on fire and Pete's just got a lot of flies following him around. You're like,

yeah, fine. If you died from a plague, literally like a plague on your house, I think I would insist on doing the eulogy at your funeral. Right. All I would say is, it eulogy at your funeral. Right.

All I would say is, it's what he would have wanted. Yeah, but you could still, from the coffin, you could hear the little flies buzzing around. Yeah, you probably could. Just tap it on the inside. Speaking of that heat wave, I'm on the WhatsApp group with some pals, some of whom I've known for a very long time,

and a couple of whom are quite basic. But in a nice way, just basic chaps. It's easier, isn't it? It is easier. Say again? It is easier. Yeah, much easier. Yeah, I'm not saying I'm Mr. Cleverpants,

but it is easier. No, I'm absolutely tormented and there's no positives. There's no upside, is there? No, exactly. You know when people say, you know, he's just a tortured genius. Nah, just tortured.

No thanks, just tortured. Tortured You know when people say, you know, he's just a tortured genius? Nah, just tortured. Nah, no thanks. Just tortured. Tortured imbecile. Yeah, daily tortured by my own stupidity. But I shared on this WhatsApp group the record temperature that China hit. It was something like 53 degrees Celsius,

wasn't it? It was pretty chunky. Straight away, one of my mates replied, better than this dreary, rainy weather, isn't it? Better than London. So, is it though? 52 degrees or whatever it is? Do you really want 52 degrees Celsius, do you, rainy weather, isn't it? Better than London. Is it, though? 52 degrees or whatever it is.

Do you really want 52 degrees Celsius, do you, rather than a bit of rain? Yeah, honestly? Incredible take. Yeah. What a take. How could you hate rain so much that you want to burn to death? It is less dreary, I suppose, isn't it?

There's all sorts going on in southern Europe as well, isn't there? Yeah, Greece has had it pretty bad. Italy's had it pretty bad. It's not ideal. We're not getting anything, are we? Again, we're not getting anything. No, I think we're going to miss it as well, which is good. I'm quite happy about that.

Do you remember that 40-degree day last year? I can't be arsed with that. I brought water into the office for the first time ever. For the first time ever? The first time ever. Do you remember the meeting at Acres and it was like the only air-conditioned part of the day. Everyone was like, this is amazing. I was really worried about my late dog, Buckley,

who is at home. I mean, maybe it really affected him because he is dead now, but... But not the day after. But not the day after, no. He hung on for a few months. He ground on for a wee while. All his fur burned off.

Oh, that's sad. Don't make light of it. It's a sad event. It is a sad event. I'll decide whether it's sad or not. It's up to you, actually. It is up to me, actually. Let's have a break so we can contemplate the fragility of life.

The things he said in the 70s, honestly. All right, we'll be back. Oh, that's disappointing. I think there's a fissure in my SodaStream bottle. So you're not getting any sparkling action out of it? I am for the first three minutes, but then it sort of disappears.

I think the gasket has gone on it. In many ways, a metaphor for your creativity. I do find just letting it out. My fizz has gone. I would say that when I watch guys on the internet fixing old

electronics... There's a guy who, like, goes... He buys a big box of Argos Returns, and he piles through them, and he goes... How do you buy them? What, off eBay? I think they're mostly, like, an auction site. They just sell them... And they are just, just like old DAB...

Well, they're DAB radios that aren't working. They're this, they're that. And it's usually in the factory, like one little wire has become disconnected or one little wire has been wired up incorrectly or a gasket is missing on a CD player. And gaskets just seem to be a big thing in electronics from argos there's

always a gasket missing and so i just think that um and these guys because usually this stuff would just go to a landfill because nobody wants it it doesn't work and the and the and the price of like them like what's the point in fixing it it's 10 quid or 20 quid but this guy just sits down all he does he just goes right that's fucked that's clearly fucked put a gasket in it sold this wire back um and he just sticks them on ebay and like i mean the admin of that is a pain in the bum but at least it's still there you know what's the margin he's making oh if he's making five quid i'd be very surprised it's an absolute waste of his time but it's just it's just sad that all these bits of crap just turned into like e-waste because they were really cheap to start with no one's bothering fixing this stuff i know someone who makes who claims to be making

thousands of pounds a year not like tens of thousands but thousands of pounds a year simply by going to different car boot sales and um buying up old wrestling figures and old kind of mattel figures and stuff and selling them on ebay for a profit because they've got a lot more knowledge of how much they're worth. Yeah, I could see that. There's a guy who me and Mark saw in Walmart and he was, we were up because

we were jet lagged and I'd just scratched the rental car at 8am in the morning and we were in there and he and this guy was just out and about and he was going and picking up lots of Hot Wheels cars from Walmart. That's not buying at trade. That's Walmart is buying it,

sticking them online because they're so rare to get. I guess with the strangulation of supply lines from China and stuff, I guess it's a bit harder and a bit more fraught with capacity to launch toys and stuff nowadays. I think I could do that with Aldi nappies. Yes, okay, right. There's not enough Aldi nappies.

Aldi nappies are the best, but I'll tell you what, it's an absolute lottery if I've got them in stock or not. Really? So you pop in and sometimes there's just no nappies at all? They're all different sizes, so it's a bit of a lottery whether you get the sizes or not. Peter, Rory's just very unfairly, I think, put something in the chat saying that we have to do batteries. All right, then.

All right. What is this? The Luke and Pete and Rory show? Mark? He can't type anymore after that because he's got too much white chocolate over his fingers. You scumbag, Rory. You chocolate over his fingers you scumbag Rory

you dirty boy you dirty you dirty little rotter somebody made the point that obviously Doc Brown was involved in the production of

the Luke and Pete show theme well kind of kind of do you want the real story yeah go on then oh yeah no didn't he get something

to do it no I called him up I called him up and said oh give us a theme tune yeah he was like I've got a new album coming out. You can have this one if you want.

I was like, thanks. He didn't do it for the Luca Beach show. Okay, yeah, no, no, that's fine. Yeah, okay, cool. So Doc Brown, the comedian, he's now in Star Wars, I believe, or one of the Star Wars. Yeah, I think he's an actor of some repute.

I think he's in that recent, just out now, massively popular drama series on the BBC. Oh, he's done a few. He's been wearing some amazing moustaches lately, I've noticed. Moustache and 70s clothes. He looks great. He's actually been on this show. He actually hosted When You Were Away once. He did, yes. And he was excellent.

He's a good lad. He's a nice fella. Solid. And so they were basically saying, well, look, I mean, Doc Brown's now in Star Wars. Like, what? Where's Rory going to end up, for crying out loud? Yeah. What use does Hollywood have for Rory?

He's not going to have a mic to defend himself on this. So I'm going to keep this brief. Right. I don't think he'll be in Star Wars. Do you reckon? Not even as like Chewbacca. He's very tall. He's quite tall. He could be Chewbacca.

Yeah. Why are you saying it like that? That's how Chewbacca talks are you saying it like that that's how Chewbacca talks have you seen that clip of Star Wars tell me how you say the word Chewbacca Chewbacca yeah why are you saying it like that Chewbacca

what like it's a surprising question Chewbacca what how do you say Chewbacca then Chewbacca Chewbacca I can't hear the difference sounds like you're asking a question of him How do you say Chewbacca then? Chewbacca. Chewbacca.

I can't hear the difference. Sounds like you're asking a question of him. Chewbacca. All right, Chewbacca. Is that you? Chewbacca. Have you ever been to Finland? Chewbacca.

Yeah. What were you going to say? Have you ever seen that clip of Chewbacca where they're filming one of the fucking Star Wars nonsense? And one of the original three and Chewbacca's original they found like Chewbacca's original Tarkin and that

and Chewbacca's going like you know he gets dubbed over as blah blah blah because he originally so he basically the guy who's playing him

speaks and they change it exactly yeah he actually does but he's going and so Harrison Ford is reacting to it when he's going, and so Harrison Ford is reacting to it when he's going, get on this ship!

And Harrison Ford's going, okay, Chewie, get on the ship! It's really funny. I can't remember what he says, but it's a really good, I'll dig it out. Chewie, that scandalous,

that scandal about the guy who voiced Alf. Oh, was he? Wasn't it? I'll read a battery brand out while you voiced Alf. Oh, was he? Wasn't it? I'll read a battery brand out while you Google Alf. No, let's get to batteries after this, because this is important. Yeah, but Googling isn't important.

So Alf was a TV series in the 80s. Right. Late 80s. I think it may have crossed into the 90s as well. And there was the guy who played Alf. Yeah. It's a YouTube video. I don't even know if it's authentic or not but the guy who chewed who voiced alf yeah i guess because it was filmed in front of a live studio audience

was like doing a load of stuff in the in what i guess what they're setting the cameras up or there was a change to the to what was happening so he was just filling the time and he's like i don't know if it's true or not because i might get caught out if i've been completely sucking in but like he's like screaming all these weird like racist epithets and stuff yeah that does ring a bell actually yeah yeah i don't think it was a dub i think he uh yeah i think i don't think people sort of like him anymore so the talk is that he he was it's like a video of outtakes from the show that surfaced. Right. And the puppeteer, who was a guy called Paul Fusco, like started just freestyling.

And then he apparently started spoofing an episode of LA Law, which featured a character that week with Tourette's syndrome or something. And then he just started fucking going off on one. But it's very strange. Then I think the guy himself came out later on and went, yeah, but it's before it was bad. It's like, not really, is it?

What? You weren't filming now. If you can't dress in alien life form, I'm the one who looks down on everyone. I've been all over the place and if I say it's not racist,

it's fine. I'm an alien. It's like 1987 or something. You are? Peter, also, just before you move on, it is also worth pointing out that the family sitcom Alf

basically featured a, frankly, quite unbelievable alien puppet that came to Earth and lived with a family in suburban America. He used to eat cats, didn't he? Yeah. 112 episodes. How have they done that? And you can't get your Mac and Me He beat cats, didn't he? Yeah. 112 episodes.

How have they done that? And you can't get your Mac and Me serial reboot on the telly. So just so you know, to put that in perspective, that's 50% more episodes than Game of Thrones. Money well spent, I'd say. Right, battery brands. Mark, Afternoon Chaps found this at the bottom of the suitcase and it's been on the bed for a few years. Arlec Power.

It's a lithium. It's got an expiry date of 2017, November. Congrats to Luke on the arrival. Thanks for the podcast, Mark. Arlec Power. Is it a new player?

The way you said that and worded that is it like the Arlec Power battery is my new arrival. Yeah, nice. Let's have a look. Chewbacca. So is this Mark

who sent this in, yeah? Yes, Mark. So not only is look. Chewbacca. So is this Mark who sent this in, yeah? Yes, Mark. So not only is it not a new player, Mark, you're not even the first Mark to send it in. Our friend Mark Rains sent it in in 2018. It was sent in by our friend Lizette in 2022 last year, March last year. So my friend, it's not a new player, my friend.

Noah Roth has got in touch. Love that second name, Roth. I saw a clip of the TV show oh Lie to Me Lie to Me Lie to Me How are you going to pretend

you don't know who Noah Roth is What do you mean Noah Roth do I not He's our pal he sends us loads of presents Oh yes of course it is sorry

the Roth roomie didn't he the Roth roomie I knew it was Noah didn't I the You don't remember anyone as kind to us. I knew it was not. No, I didn't, I. The battery daddy guy, yeah? Yeah. Yeah.

Okay, right, fine. No, he's a legend. He's a Luke and Peter legend. All right. All right. Treat him with respect. Cut that out, Rory. He won't get more praise.

We're very much like Tito in many ways. Hello there, lads. While changing out emergency lights in a private jet, brilliant, I came across what appeared to be two AA batteries that have been heat shrunk together. Thought you might get a kick out of these lovely safety boys, simply known as Bruce. Love the new YouTube page. Subscribe if you haven't, you jazzy listeners.

Thank you, Noah, for that. Yes, I do. I do run for North. Replacing battery, Bruce. There's a positive and a negative end. And, yeah yeah they've just basically just shrank a little

two little double A's together I wonder how much power you could get out of that if you just kept on going it's an amazing

looking battery what I like about your reading there Pete is with Noah is that like you've done the podcast equivalent there of what you

do with me when it comes to social events where you're really nice and polite to people hello mate how you doing

you okay good to see you and then you come to me and go who's that who's that guy again don't be rude you do don't be rude

I remember Noah but I didn't remember I didn't remember his second name that's alright isn't it yeah it's fine that's okay I can't tell Noah whether Bruce

a battery just called Bruce is a new player or not because the system I've got to find out is by typing the name of the battery in the search on Gmail and all I'm getting here

is Bruce Hornsby, Bruce Springsteen, Bruce Barry's Tribe BBC series. A lot of Bruce's in the world and to be honest I mean in the configuration as suggested I mean they're very much very much kind of wang them together so I don't know. I'd say it's a new

player. Fuck it. I don't remember seeing it. Give him the benefit of the doubt. Noah's a friend of the show. He deserves the respect. Let's it's a new player. Fuck it. I don't remember seeing it. Give him the benefit of the doubt. Noah's a friend of the show. He deserves the respect. Let's give him a new player. Well done to you, Noah. Yeah, thank you, Noah. And changing out emergency lights in a private jet,

it's good stuff. Yeah. Did Noah send us the reflective silver tape? No, that was Pilot Neil, wasn't it? Oh, yes, of course it was, yeah. Can't remember anyone today, honestly. Dan! I'm a relatively new listener to the show, being led here after Oh, yes, of course it was, yeah. Can't remember anyone today, honestly. Dan! I'm a relatively new listener to the show,

being led here after a friend introduced me to the Ramble last year, so I would not be surprised if this isn't a new player. Last week, 17 of my family all took a trip to Mallorca, this is Dan here, to celebrate my dad's, Dan's dad's 60th birthday. One evening, my mum thought it would be a good idea to stick on the TV in our villa. Clearly, the pool had gotten boring, but what she found was the only chance we had access to were German pornography.

Anyway, I had the realisation that the TV remote would have some batteries, and I give you Gene Klein. Fingers crossed for a new player, Dan Gene Klein. I think this might be a new player, you know. I don't think I've ever heard of a Gene Klein I think this might be a new player you know I don't think I've ever heard of a Gene Klein battery so welcome to you Dan and to your Dan dad

Dan dad Dan Dan dad and what I would say is you've got a lot of content to listen to if you're a new a new partaker but Gene Klein

unfortunately are not new players because our friend Jay sent them in in June of last year. But this is only the second time they've been sent in, so you're very close to having new players. But I'm afraid not.

Close, but no cigar. That's all right, mate. My mate Tomo, he came back after dinner time at school and he said he'd seen some German pornography. Ja, ich komme, is all he can remember. Do you want to translate to our non-German-speaking listeners? Give it a Google. Give it a Google.

All right, then. One out of three today. One out of three. It's not bad. And I've mugged off lovely Noah. It's solid work. Hello at LukePeteShow.com. If you've got any batteries,

if you've got anything you want to send us, please do. You can also get in touch via Twitter, bloody TikTok, bloody Instagram Instagram but we've also got a YouTube page as well at the Luke and Pete show have a look up on there

there's loads of clips and stuff and they've been doing they've been going great haven't they Lukey yeah listen we're 13 away from a thousand subscribers
