It's the Luke and Pete Show.
It's Easter Monday.
If you've got chocolate covered all over your chops and on your hands
and on the eiderdown and on the wall,
I'm glad you had a good one.
I'm glad you had a good one.
But for those of us who don't eat as many Easter eggs as they should,
yeah, welcome to the Luke and Pete show.
It's Pete Donaldson here.
Luke is joining me.
Did I speak about this before?
But, like, the chemical makeup of Easter egg chocolate
is different to normal chocolate
because it has to hold a different shape.
It has to hold a different shape,
so it has to be worse off for you.
Like, it has to be more different shape so it has to be worse off for you like it's it
has to be more sugary perhaps or something oh so it does actually taste different then it tastes
different because the actual makeup of it is different because it has to hold an eggy shape
and it has to have more calorific content so that's why um easter egg pound for pound is worse
for you than um normal chocolate it's so interesting you say that.
A friend of mine got in touch the other day to say that
it's the best time of year for the chocolate lover
because he worked out that if you go and buy Easter eggs,
which of course regularly come with chocolate bars included,
generally speaking, he worked out,
this is the kind of thing my friends and I talk about on WhatsApp
he said look here's four eggs
I bought from the supermarket
right it's a Yorkie one
sorry it's a Rolo one, a Toffee Crisp
one, a Lion and
a Yorkie right
and he said it was £10 for
four eggs right
and you get an additional eight chocolate bars in that
so if you work out the price
per kilo of the chocolate you're getting it works out under half price that's amazing that's awesome
it's an absolute bargain time for chocolate lovers yeah you might as well stock up on it
actually because the the sale by used by dates best before dates will be quite long as well
are they not sort of aggressive around about Easter time?
Maybe.
They might be.
Yeah.
And also,
if your family are kind of
relaxed about that kind of thing,
it's always worth going
and buying them Easter eggs
a week later.
Yeah.
Because they're even cheaper then.
I keep eyeing it
because I've bought
my partner one
and I've not seen one yet
even though it's
the day after Easter Sunday.
And there is a dog Easter egg that I keep eyeing up.
Well, you keep telling our listeners that there's chocolate all over the street over Easter.
Honestly, there will be chocolate all over the street this Easter,
and I will take some pictures, and you'll see, for once and for all,
there's Easter.
This is like that cream egg, and you embarrass yourself around Cadbury's cream eggs.
What do you mean? I told you, I've you embarrass yourself around Cadbury's cream eggs. What do you mean?
I told you.
I've revealed to you that Cadbury's cream eggs
are only available between Christmas and Easter
and you went mental.
I still don't believe that.
Well, you actually went to like a really hooky
corner shop in Soho in about June
and went, look, there's cream eggs here.
Exactly.
Yeah, I don't think they were.
They were probably long after their sell-by date.
My partner on our first kind of little date, she expressed that a that lilt doesn't exist anymore. And I ran outside and got a kind of lilt within 30 seconds of us being in the pub, which and I've maintained that level of pettiness.
That is an incredible story to admit.
Yeah, it's awful, isn't it? On the first date.
I know.
Well, it wasn't a...
Why did you do that?
I was just having a drink.
Because I thought it was funny.
Because I was like...
Not many people are 30 seconds wrong, are they?
Not many people...
You can sort of go,
Lilts doesn't exist anymore.
It hasn't existed since the 90s.
And they can be proved wrong in 30 seconds
I just think it's
you know
you really are
a character
the best
you often go
when we're in the pub
you often won't sit still
you often leave
and come back with
things you've bought
yeah
I think the last one was
peanut punch and some
I don't know
a hat or something
I don't know it a hat or something.
It was a lot of weird glitter masks.
Yeah.
I just like the kind of, the fraff that the Commoner Garden off-license will sell.
And they'll get it in and the bloke from Cash and Carrie will go,
right, here's your bottles of Baileys.
Would you like some toilet duck?
Would you like some mysterious masks? And they go, yeah I mean I mean I'm not paying for the mysterious masks because that's a mental thing to ask of me I'm never going to sell
you them until Pete Donaldson walks in half cut did um by the way I forgot to ask you on on Thursday
show when you're in California did anyone mistake you for a boogaloo boy with your hair and your
mustache and stuff a boogaloo boy what do you and your moustache and stuff? A Boogaloo boy?
What do you mean, like a fascist?
Proud Boys.
A Proud Boy, right, okay.
I think Boogaloo boys are like Proud Boys,
but they wear Hawaiian shirts.
Right, okay, yeah.
Not really.
I didn't sort of get into the weeds on that one.
I was mainly in Ubers, to be honest,
so protected from everyone.
Yeah, because you're too scared to drive your hire car
after the incident.
And also wrestling fans.
There's, you know,
the sort of people
who spend a lot of time online.
They can get radicalised.
That's the WrestleMe audience
you're talking about there.
No, the WrestleMe audience
is lovely
and every WrestleMe fan
who would walk into WrestleMania
and this card just went, I went, WrestleMe Pete, WrestleMe fan who would walk into WrestleMania, this car just went,
I went, WrestleMe, Pete, WrestleMe, Mark,
from an adjoining car park.
And then he just sped off.
That's excellent.
It looks like he was a worse driver than I was.
When I was cycling into the office the other day,
when you were away, actually,
I was at a red light on the cycle lane.
And so obviously it was time when people were riding into work. So there was about 15 cyclists and I was in the red light on the cycle lane. And so obviously it was like time when people were riding into work.
So there's about 15 cyclists
and I was in the middle of it.
So imagine like a Peloton basically.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And as a bloke in a suit and a long coat,
walking along, headphones in.
And you know when people don't know
how loud they're speaking
because they've got headphones in?
Yeah.
He just looked over and just went,
Rambo! Right in my face. in yeah he just looked over and just went rebel
right in my face
and then just carried on walking
and I felt like
I owed everyone around me
an explanation
but I didn't bloody give them one
no exactly
yeah just sort of
go
it's a
it's a sex thing
that would have been better
than admitting what it was
and then what I did is
when everyone looked at me
I looked at them and then really deliberately looked down at my own crotch
and then I wet myself.
Yeah, just to show them who's boss.
You know, it's a power move.
It's all about a power move.
Did you read that inspirational quote from a bellend
that was being shipped around Instagram?
A man has got a job and he makes everyone come
to the job interview at 7 o'clock.
By 9 o'clock,
there's five applicants left.
By 3 in the afternoon,
everyone's just waiting
to have their interview.
I get it, yeah, carry on.
Yeah, all that.
And then it gets to 5 o'clock, 6 o'clock,
and by 7 o'clock,
there's only one candidate left
and he gets the job.
Because, I mean, I love all of this stuff.
You're basically hiring the bloke who's got nothing else on.
Who just forgot why he was there.
Yeah.
For their sleep.
Oh, I love it.
I absolutely love these bell-ends that make this stuff.
People try to make,
I like it when they try and make things sound inspirational,
but it actually just sounds really odd.
Yeah.
There was a guy in our industry,
we talked about it,
and he's like,
I'm sat at my kitchen table at 5am.
Yeah.
Why are you doing that?
It's Jay Comfrey.
Why are you doing that?
Why are you doing that?
Go back to bed.
Why are you doing that?
Go back to bed.
It's like,
my dad's up at 1 o'clock's like, invited up at our office,
right?
Yeah.
And told everyone,
I was up at 5am this morning,
doing my affirmations,
doing my world-class basics.
Like fast forward to about one o'clock,
Luke's head down at the desk.
Doing your manifests.
Doing your manifests over a weak tea.
Lovely old job.
Luke's leaning back in his chair,
catching flies. I'm absolutely knackered. I was up T. Lovely old job. Yeah, Luke's leaning back in his chair, catching flies.
I'm absolutely knackered.
I was up at five.
Do your manifestations.
Yeah, absolutely ridiculous.
Raw.
It is ridiculous.
Right, Peter, what we did promise our lovely listeners is that we would do,
before we do this, we promised that we were going to do emails.
We will do emails starting now.
But before we do,
I do want people,
because it's Easter Monday,
to let us know,
hello at LukeandPetech.com
or at LukeandPetech on the social media,
if they did in fact see lots of chocolate
in the street this weekend,
because that's the claim that you made
regarding Easter.
And I want to know if it's me who's mad or you.
I suspect it's you
but we'd like to find out.
Yeah, I mean,
kids are just running around
with loads of Easter eggs
and sometimes they just drop,
sometimes they just drop it
on the floor.
That's all I'm saying.
There just seems to be
a lot of chocolate on the floor.
We'll see.
We'll see.
So, first email.
It's quite rare for us
to do emails before the outbreak
but what the hell.
Let's do one
and then we'll go
to the outbreak break after.
This one is from Richie.
And I should say that you probably want to listen to this under caution
just because of the content.
But if you're of a decent quality constitution, you should be fine.
I don't think it's that bad, but I'll just put it out there anyway.
Right.
Richie says, hello, Luke. Hello, Pete. First time emailer and listener since the inception of your glorious pod the
comedic hijinks are a joy to listen to my monday and thursday mornings are made easier with both
your dulcet tones filling my headphones i'm just sending this a bit after the fact to let you know
your podcast once made me faint in my kitchen a few years ago.
I had trepidation in sending this email because I didn't want it to sound accusatory.
So rest assured, all is good and people love hearing this story.
It was a normal Thursday morning.
I was pouring milk into my bowl of Weetabix
when Luke started talking about a former rock star
who had done so much cocaine
his septum separated
from his nose in the toilet.
He picked up the septum
and said,
that looks like it might be good
to snort,
and he did.
I started to feel sick,
spots covered my vision
and my hearing went.
The next thing I remember
I was lying on the floor
listening to Pete laughing.
Thanks boys.
Richie from County Kildare, Ireland.
What a terrible thing to wake up to,
me having a little bit of a giggle.
Awful.
I'm sure many people have had that joy.
Yeah, I think so, I think so.
I think that person that did that was,
I think it was Brandon Block, the ex-90s DJ.
Right, okay, what?
He did that where he snorted.
I mean, did he think it was like a lump of nonsense rather than...
No, I think the story...
I mean, I might be getting it mixed up with someone else.
If I am, then Richie should forgive me.
But if it's the one I'm thinking of, then he had...
I mean, this is in his own autobiography,
so it's not even a controversial thing.
He definitely claims it happened.
He septum fell out of his nose.
Yeah.
And he thought, if I put that on the windowsill
and dry it out a bit
I can cut that up
and snort it again
that was his first thought
I mean there's nothing
I mean
there'll be nothing
that is
you know
druggy in that
it'll just be
the only reason why it's fallen out
is because
the bloody thing is
you know
destroyed it's been it's burned it is because the bloody thing has, you know,
destroyed,
it's been,
it's burned it away effectively.
Yeah.
You know,
it's toxic.
Yeah,
basically,
yeah.
It's not an ideal situation.
I don't think anyone's
coming out of that
very well,
are they?
No,
not ideal.
Anyway,
that's one to think about
in the break,
which we're going to do now.
When we come back,
there'll be a bit more of this.
Oh,
I know.
It's the Luke Beach Show. We're back with emails. We'll be a bit more of this. Oh, I know. It's the Luke and Pete Show.

Now, hi guys.
Following on from Monday's chat
about white privilege at an airport,
I have a story.
This is from nobody.
It doesn't have a name.
Possibly deliberate, possibly not.
It was about 2006
and my flatmate decided to take me
to the scene of her boyfriend's car crash
in which he had died.
Whoa.
Yeah. It was about 2006 and my flatmate decided to... You to the scene of her boyfriend's car crash in which he had died. Whoa. Yeah.
It was about 2006, and my flatmate decided to...
No, you read that right.
You read that right.
Yeah, okay, right.
Okey-dokey.
I had not long before survived a motorbike crash
in which I lost my leg.
Please don't use phones while driving
and remember to stop at junctions.
Good God.
This has started at 60, hasn't it?
Yeah.
In order to see the crash site,
we had to walk from the corner of the country road
in which the boyfriend had lost control
into the field in which the car had ended up in.
About two weeks after this visit,
I was off to Florida with 10 close friends.
We were in the queue to check in
and a sniffer dog spent an extra minute around my prosthetic.
When I rolled my trouser leg up,
the policeman just said it probably confused her
and carried on sniffing the other bags.
At this stage, everything was going great.
We go to a bar, have a look at Duty Free,
and when our flight is called, I go through the metal detector
and it kicks off, probably the leg again.
Sir, would you consent to a manual pat-down?
I was asked. I sheepishly obliged.
And then two men, looking like the hitman video game agent,
come to me and say, this way, sir.
I then notice two armed cops behind them.
We then go down a very bright corridor to a very small dark room.
Remove your shoe and your leg,
Wanstead says very sternly.
Okay, but why, I ask?
Your shirt's flagged up explosive materials.
We believe your prosthetic is a bomb.
Wow.
Wow.
Now, in hindsight,
the next line that came out of my mouth
probably didn't help.
If I wanted to blow up a plane,
I'd have my two weeks in Florida
and then do it on the way home.
Sound logic.
Well, if fair do's.
Good.
Remove your pants, sir, was the reply.
My trousers were already half off to remove my fake leg.
Then a more senior agent appears from the other side
of what I thought was a mirror.
That won't be necessary.
Are you a farmer, sir, he asked.
Then it all comes together.
No, but I was wearing these trainers and a pair of shorts
in a wheat field a few weeks ago. It turns out I'd flagged up because of a pesticide or weed killer
that is also used in bomb making. My walk onto the plane was then very awkward because I had to walk
all the way back to the back with everyone knowing I'd held them up without knowing why.
Cheers. Good stuff. Didn't need to be unnamed.'s a great story um about um well about a situation
where you might have explosive materials on your foot they always get caught in it bomb making
people um buying loads of um uh loads of stuff from the garden center you always get flagged if
you buy too much fertilizer yeah i think it's a story that's got everything yeah it started off
very strong it started off very strong i wasn't prepared for the, like the second sentence.
No,
me neither.
It's not an invite that,
that you get asked very often. I don't think though.
What do you reckon?
I,
no,
I wouldn't have thought so.
Someone said to me,
do I want to do that?
I might say no.
Yeah.
What am I doing it for?
If he's saying,
it's like a moral support thing where it's like,
I really need your help because I'm having a visual where,
you know,
I'd like to think I'd be a good friend.
But if someone just woke up one morning and said,
do you fancy doing this?
I'd say, I don't know if I do really, to be honest.
But you would do it because you are a people pleaser.
A people pleaser.
And also, I love it where sites have atrocious accidents.
Anyway, Luke, have you got an email?
Yes, I have.
Here is an email from Darby.
I don't know if I've ever had an email from someone called Darby before.
Darby?
Would it be Darby or Derby, would you pronounce it?
I'd definitely say Darby.
I think, isn't there a wrestler called Darby?
If it's America, I've heard some of our American cousins say Derby.
Oh, well, fine.
Look, I'll bow down to you.
You know more Americans than I do.
Do you know what it always reminds me of?
It always reminds me of the dish you could buy in Wimpy
called the Brown Derby.
What was the Brown Derby?
It sounds really rude, but it's not.
Yeah, it sounds like...
Do you not remember it?
It sounds like the sequel to Human Caterpillar.
Horrible.
So it's like a...
I don't know.
It's like a dessert.
It's like a donut with ice cream and chocolate sauce on it.
Right.
Okay, Good stuff.
Yeah.
Anyway, Darby's been in touch, and he says,
Hi, friends.
Just wanted to weigh in because, like the listener in a recent episode,
I'm also going through your entire back catalogue of episodes in between new ones.
However, I have a suggestion.
Rather than go through in sequential order,
I am skipping around the last six years of episodes in random order,
which I feel is a superior technique for a number of reasons.
First, I think your unique brand of non-sequitur humor lends itself
to an additional pinch of chaos when you jump around,
like a Nashville hot chicken covered in hot sauce, whatever that is.
Second, it's a fun game to try and guess the year of the episode.
What's Pete's love life like?
Do they mention the pandemic?
When are you most likely to be bringing up Tiffany Amber Tearsome for no reason?
Anyway, love the show.
I also haven't got to the start of the batteries yet.
At least not that I know of.
So how would you know what ones you'd listen to and what ones you hadn't know?
I guess the podcast player would tell you that.
I mean, you would hope that your phone would retain that information or however you're listening to it what ones you haven't know I guess the podcast player would tell you that I mean you would you would hope that
your that your phone
would retain that
information or however
you're listening to it
I um I sent my phone
away to get fixed
before I went away
and it took um
it's heavy and I
drop it and it's
smashed and I had
insurance so I was
like hey Donaldson's
gonna claim on the
big guy and
so what phone did
you take to the US
with you then
I took a backup which is also smashed to buggery as well terrible Donaldson's going to claim on the big eye. So what phone did you take to the US with you then?
I took a backup, which has also smashed a buggery as well.
Terrible. For fuck's sake.
But it's taken a month to return this bloody phone.
And it's come back and they've wiped everything.
Oh, shit.
Oh, no.
I never thought they did that.
I thought maybe it was just unfixable.
And so they just gave me a new one.
But yeah, they've just wiped the whole fucking thing.
All me pictures for a year.
Oh, rubbish. Did they not give you a warning that might happen yeah but i just i just assumed i knew what
i was doing you thought they won't touch that spicy they won't they won't touch that they'll
be they'll be drilling that hard drive immediately they won't want that uh that to touch that
speaking of that i um i saw an advert Broadband, which annoyed me because it said,
oh, we guarantee you brilliant broadband in every room of your house.
And at the time, I didn't have that.
And I was like, my house is like a two-bedroom flat.
Why am I not getting that?
So I called them up and they said, all right, no worries.
Yeah, we'll send you a new, more powerful router.
And then your Sky Q-Box will act as an extender
and the whole thing will be sorted.
I was like, okay, fine.
So I did all that.
It all came through.
It all worked fine.
It's great now.
It works fine.
And I'm very happy with it.
Until I got a letter shortly afterwards saying,
we don't seem to have received your old box
that you're supposed to send back to us.
And I was like, what?
So I called them up and they said,
oh yeah, you've got to send the old one back.
And we told you that.
And I said, I don't remember you telling me that at all.
So, I mean, I'm not having this.
And they said, no, sir, hold the line.
I thought, all right, they're going to waive the fee, which is fucking 50 quid for nothing.
And they just played back the call.
They played back the call you had?
Yeah. Oh, that is fun, fun, fun.
And it clearly said her.
How did they find it it's so quickly the audio
linked to um it's just linked to um the cut my customer number i guess yeah but like how did
they find that piece of the conversation where you went yes i will never forget this well no it
wasn't it wasn't even that it was just her very very professionally and detail driven yeah listing
the things i had to do immediately me just just going, yeah, yeah, no worries, yeah.
I was probably doing something else.
I wasn't really paying attention.
And then what I'd also done is I'd also missed the return sleeve
that comes in the box.
Obviously, it's straight in the bin.
They make it so easy for you to do.
All you've got to do is put it in the return sleeve,
postage paid, and put it in the box.
I never fucking did any of it.
And that cost me fucking 50 quid.
Oh, nuts. That's a nightmare, Luke. You should hear that. in the box and I never fucking did any of it and that cost me fucking 50 quid oh nuts
that's a nightmare Luke
sure hear that
but it's funny
that you had your
you know
your history
red back at you
speaking of 50 quid
as well
one other thing
I wanted to mention
that I forgot to tell you
is that
you know I mentioned earlier
I was sort of
cycling into work
yeah
well while you're away
I got a fixed penalty notice
for apparently riding through a
red light what on your bike yeah how what how did they know it was you how well i'll tell you the
story i'm riding down like a really quiet side street okay and it wasn't even rush hour it was
like yeah i think it was probably it
was a day i was going to the office but i wasn't in for a recording early so it's like i don't know
it's like 11 a.m right yeah there's no and it's quite surprising but down the side streets there's
no one about and there's a um there's a road obviously and then to the left of it is a cycle
lane and there's a separate set of traffic lights for the cycle lane.
And they go,
and they're obviously,
you've probably seen them,
they're lit up,
but they're the shape of a bike.
Right, yeah.
So you know it's for a cycle, right?
And I swear that that bit went green,
but the main traffic light was red.
Right.
So I carried on riding.
And then, I mean,
I don't want to be rude about,
you know, I mean,
the Metropolitan Police have had enough bad press without me weighing in but the cycle safety team of the met police which
is basically two absolute dweebs on bikes just powered past me and like pulled me over oh right
you went through yes excuse me sir you're aware of the uh red light all this kind of shit right
and i was like okay I thought it was green.
And then he started to get really odd about it.
He was like really moral about it.
He was like,
he was like,
well, you know,
the rules are in place for your own safety, sir.
And I was like,
no, yeah, I know that,
but there's no one around.
I thought that part of it was green.
I thought it was a filter lane.
I thought it was fine.
And he was like,
well, you stared right at us
before you rode straight through it.
I said, yeah, I know I did because I thought it was green. lane like i thought it was fine yeah and he was like well you stared right at us before you rode straight through it i said yeah i know i did because i
thought it was green and and he goes um right so um we'll deal with this by way of a fixed penalty
notice um but i do have to read you your rights and i was like okay look just fuck it yeah just
just give me the give me the fucking i'll give you the money but i'm not having the telling off
i can't give me the fine that's and that was so funny you say that because that is the exact reason i want to tell you about it because yeah isn't it interesting
how right the laws the laws are there i get it i totally understand it i'm not gonna i'm not
gonna fight it i'm not gonna hire a lawyer i'm not gonna go through the admin process it's a 50
quid fine it's annoying i'll take it on the chin i didn't give him any indication that anything else
was gonna happen i was like fine no problem the only thing i did which again he didn't give him any indication that anything else was going to happen I was like fine no problem
the only thing I did
which again he didn't like
is because I was on a line bike
and he was chatting to me
for like 10 minutes
I caught my phone out
and wanted to cancel the ride
so I didn't keep getting charged
yeah okay
and he's like
can you put your phone away please sir
and I was like
what is it a crime
to have my phone out now
like I'm just cancelling the line bike.
He's gone for his gun, man.
Yeah, he's just mad on power, right?
And he starts going to me, yeah, the laws are in place for your own safety.
I can't believe you didn't see it.
And I was like, I just felt like, I didn't say anything,
because nothing good's going to come of it.
But I just felt like saying, mate, the law is the law.
I don't need you to give me a fucking lesson.
I'm 42 years old.
I'll take my hit. I'll take it on the chin. You get on with your day. I don't need you to give me a fucking lesson. I'm 42 years old. I'll take my hit.
I'll take it on the chin.
You get on with your day.
I'll get on with my day.
Let's not elongate this.
He's writing all this stuff down.
It was insane how much admin went on.
That's the thing that makes me laugh.
Because I saw it quite a lot around the...
Oh, I saw the liver king at WrestleMania, by the way.
You did?
Did you really?
Walking.
I was going to get a hot dog
and
this tiny little man
in a big fur coat
with two Dobermans
I think they were Dobermans
just sort of
I thought you'd been
wildly discredited now
well he's still
you know
still got that heat
still got that burning desire
to you know
put away the trend
put away the
the PEDs
to do his caveman fundamentals
whatever they're called
do his caveman fundamentals and try and do it clean
but yeah he was wandering through
with an unlit cigar
a performative cigar
at Wrestlemania and it was just
rather amusing. Did you not speak with him?
No people were just like hey liver king
whoa that's the liver king, tiny little lad
tiny, get on bloody nipples
I didn't see his muscles just just uh he's always got his top off no he just had a big fur
coat on all right it was quite cold but um anyway uh yeah you saw a lot of that around when around
like the the at&t stadium where we were um the um the people would sort of go i can't let you
through you haven't got your um your your screenshot of your of your ticket because the people would sort of go, I can't let you through.
You haven't got your screenshot of your ticket because they were on Marksport.
And he wouldn't let me through
to watch the final match of day one.
So I was watching it from the sort of balcony area.
And he was going,
and so I was like,
I can't get hold of him.
I'm just going to stand there.
He's going, I'm just doing my job.
I'm just doing my job.
Go through now,
but I'm just doing my job.
And I'm going,
I sort of felt like you've taken five minutes
out of my fucking day
these tickets
were very expensive
and you're not doing your job
because you're letting me through
so you're not doing your job
and then another one
was I going
well Mark
you've got to smoke
far away from the stadium
just to let you know
just to let you know
you have to smoke
over the other like quite far away from the stadium. Just to let you know, just to let you know, you have to smoke over the other,
like,
quite far away
from the stadium.
And it's like,
you didn't need
just to let you know.
They're either the rules
or they're not.
You know what I mean?
The rules are the thing.
Just tell me the rules
and I'll...
Don't try and be my pal.
Yeah.
I think it's the same.
Some duty freeze.
Leave him alone.
The disdain I had
for the esteemed
Metropolitan Police Officer and member of the cycle safety team, which he had as a sticker on his bike, some duty freeze leave him alone the disdain I had for the the esteemed metropolitan police officer
and member of the
cycle safety team
which he had
as a sticker on his bike
the disdain I felt
mostly
I'll be honest
I was quite snobby about it
the disdain I felt
mostly stemmed from the fact
that he was about 55
and was still a police constable
on the cycle safety team
to me
that's not a good police officer
to me that's not a good example
of the genre
it can't be no well I don't know I mean you know That's not a good police officer. To me, that's not a good example of the genre.
It can't be.
No.
Well, I don't know.
I mean, you know, people sort of carry on a bit longer these days, don't they?
No, but I just think he... Surely he'd be doing something else by now.
True.
If he was good.
Maybe he's been busted for being naughty,
because the rules do apply to him, it turns out.
Yeah.
I'm not saying that he was institutionally homophobic
sexist or racist
like the report
from Baroness Casey
suggested
but I'm just saying
you know
it was quite fastidious
which I guess really
if you're thinking about it
it's what you want
from your police officers
I guess
I broke the rules
it's my fault
it's my fault
I said that to him
I said I get it
it's my fault
that was a mistake
I made a mistake
I mean you could have
just pulled a wheelie and just fucked off that would have been funny
getting tasered i'd already cancelled the line bike so it would have just i just
lovely stuff anyway let's get out of here we've done enough for one day um i hope it was a lovely
easter we've done enough damage leave it phil it's not's not worth it. Spring's on the way. I noticed actually
in my garden earlier
that we've got a lovely
cherry tree in our back garden
which is actually
pride and joy really
and the buds are coming out now
which means spring
is most certainly on the way.
Very pleasing.
Bring us in some cherries.
It's not ready yet.
They won't be ready
for a good few months
but I will.
Bring Petey some cherries in,
will you?
If you're a good boy
you'll get some cherries.
I'll make a pie with it.
All right, that's enough.
Right, that's enough.
Pete's tired.
We'll be back on Thursday for Battery Brands.
Get your batteries in.
Get your emails in.
Say hello, won't you?
See you later.
Ta-ta. Darby.
Would it be Darby or Derby, would you pronounce it?
I'd definitely say Darby.
I think, isn't there a wrestler called Darby?
Right, hang on a second.
Meow.
Can I hear a little cat?
Let me pick up because Magnus wants his food
and he will not shut up until I feed him.
Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow.
He doesn't even know what podcasts are,
so he's not going to stop.
Give me a sec.
It's all right, you.
Come on in.
It's all right, you.
Come on in.
