Oh, it's a Luke and a Pete show on Thursday the 11th of May. I'm Pete Donaldson. I'm joined by Mr. Luke Moore. Luke, how the bloody hell are you, sunshine? Not too bad, thanks. Not too bad at all. How are you, Peter? Not too bad, thanks. Not too bad at all. How are you, Peter? I'm having, I've hit 42 about nine days ago, 11 days ago, and I am having a three-day hangover, Luke. Oh dear. A three-day, I thought, people talk about getting old and having two-day hangovers, and I have had a three-day hangover. Well, obviously our listeners know because we told them last time out that we're recording a bit in advance because there's some other personal things going on that we have to be available for.

I'm getting my legs lengthened. Yeah, you're getting your shins lengthened. Shins lengthened, yeah. And you've asked them to use breadsticks, is that right? Yeah, I want to be able to crunch them and dip them in French onion soup. And you want your mates to be able to slide in two-footed and just literally snap them? Yeah, go, now look what you've done. And he's going, well, it's your fault for replacing your shins with bread.

And I was going, I'll do what I want and I'll live my own life. So at the time of recording, it's not that long after the coronation happened and people listening to earlier episodes go, oh, I haven't talked about the coronation. This is basically why. Oh, we really want to know what Pete and Luke think about the coronation of King Charles. Presumably, they're fucking subscribed to this show for a reason, you fucking idiot.

Yeah, but they don't... That specific subject, why would we be talking about that over and over? That's what I would say. Oh, what, the biggest event to happen this year in the country? Oh, there's loads of stuff. I'm tired of things happening, Luke. There's always something happening.

We've all got fatigue about it. Just get a few days off. There's nothing you do about it. I don't understand the rationale. Well, I do understand the rationale because it's you and you are insane. But people have literally gone on their computer or portable cellular telephone, Peter. You sound like an old man. And they've hit a subscribe button.

They've hit a subscribe button. To listen specifically to our opinions. They've started spinning the wax cylinder. And listen, it's not my fault. It's not my fault that Chris Broad from Abroad Japan made you get up early this morning. You're still a bit hungover. So don't take it out on me, all right?

Well, you can take it out on me if you want. I don't mind. But, so we've had a birthday for you. So congratulations. Happy birthday. Many happy returns. Yeah. And we've had the coronation of a king.

So which would you like to talk about first? i mean they're all kind of tied together i mean the reason why a man came in my room late at night and put a 42 crown on me uh burger king hat uh it was all very strange but yeah they uh i'm having uh luke i've turned 42 and it turns out three day hangovers are a thing my voice is fucked i'm tired i'm irritable um what's that about so you're not you're too cool to use instagram the way that a lot of people use it right so the way you use instagram is that you um you sometimes dump a load of quite arty photos on the account because you've been on holiday or whatever. Right. And that's the only way you use it really, right?

It's merely a letterbox for me. I'm looking through my letterbox at people's lives. Yeah, that's fair enough. That's fair enough. But the way we know about things like your hangover is because we see the partner you have access to, Instagram, where she just drags you over the coals and all the rest of it. And I saw you in a photo on her Instagram,

I think yesterday maybe. Right. Playing the 2P machine and then the arcade, presumably down South End. Yeah. Looking dreadful. Yeah. We had some friends staying.

And that kind of coincided with the coronation party in our street. And I don't know what had happened, but I drank some of the whiskey you bought me. Oh, good. How was it? Yes, I'm responsible for this. Powerful stuff. I drank a little bit of that and just went on to wine.

And then the next day, we had children staying in the house and they all wanted to go to the arcades. So I was faced with having the worst hangover I've had, I think, in my life. Like real sort of, I feel so bad, I want to just crawl into a hole kind of hangover. And a trip to what can only be described as a seaside cacophony that is Southend Pier Amusements and Peter Pan's Playground or whatever the hell it's called and it's just so it was just so loud Luke and my head hurt so much yeah and the kids had such an appetite for the two pens machines. It was incredible.

Lovely couple of kids, lovely couple of lads, Sarah's friend Emma's Ben's, and they were lovely, but they did love the 2P machines. So we spent a lot of time stood next to a 2P machine that every time you put a 2P in, it would go, whoo! And I was like, that's loud. That is loud, isn't it? That is loud.

I don't need that in my life. And did you have a nice birthday celebration overall? Yeah, I did have a nice birthday celebration. Where did we go? We went to Rye. Rye. I've been to Rye. It's nice, isn't it?

And also Canberra Sands as well, where I think I went to a couple of ATPs back in the day. But I kind of forgot how lovely the beach is at Canberra Sands as well, where I think I went to a couple of ATPs back in the day. But I kind of forgot how lovely the beach is at Canberra Sands. So when we were there, it was pissing me off. We didn't get a chance to look at it much, but it's a great beach. It's a really big, expansive sand. Well worth a trip. And Rye is a nice old town, isn't it?

It is. We went to this pub that was literally founded in 1300 and something. Oh, yeah. It's just mad, isn't it? It literally founded in 1300 and something. Oh, yeah. It's just mad, isn't it? It's like an old pirate pub. Yeah, it could have been. It was proper wonky, wonky donkey, but it was a really old pub. It was incredible.

Someone was saying to me that you went in there in your Jack Sparrow outfit and insisted on talking like a pirate the whole time. That's down the road. Hastings is where all the pirates sort of hung out. Are you still rocking your Jack Sparrow or not? No, I've retired it. So for the listeners who aren't, well, no listeners will be aware

that Pete helped me out with a family thing a couple of weeks ago. And so as a thank you, my dad and me bought him quite a nice bottle of whiskey. And I'll be honest with you, it was quite a frustrating process because I kept getting Amazon bounce-backs saying there was no one in to sign for this package.

There was no one in to sign for this package. And because, I guess, it's alcohol, you have to have someone who's over the age of 18 to be there. Yeah, that sounds like my life. I kept thinking to myself, I'll sit in the office, I'll say, why is he never in? Because he's not here. But anyway, so it eventually got delivered and you've sampled some of the goods now.

How many glasses of that whiskey did you have? I had a couple, yeah, and it was very delicious. I'm not an expert on whiskey, but I know what I like, and I like it peaty, and I like it smoky, and I like it delicious. Peaty by name, peaty by nature. That's why my voice sounds like this after two days. Two fucking days.

I remember before, because you've bought me Japanese whiskey before, and you've said to me that you liked it peaty. And so I found the bottle of whiskey I bought you was from the Hebrides, and I believe that is one of the peatier places. So fingers crossed it does the trick for you. And also, fingers crossed, you start feeling a bit better yeah what i need is the antidote if you can send me the antidote whiskey so i can feel better yeah you want more whiskey do you okay fine yeah no worries that's an antidote yeah uh peter before we move on any further i um there's a coronation to chat

about we have to talk about it a wee bit we chiefly though We have to talk about it a wee bit. Chiefly, though, we have to talk about it through the lens of the much vaunted, long promised coronation King Charles III ear. A lot of people asking about it. Loads of tweets talking about how it went down and how the street party embraced it. Or did they not embrace it? We don't know. We'd love to get an update from you on the status of the King Charles III coronation ear. Yeah. So the plan was to make like a little kind of, maybe like a bit of, like a beanbag sort of throwing game.

Like a cornhole kind of thing. A cornhole, but with Prince Charles' ear. So I bought some pipe insulation. I bought some screws. I bought two big bits of wood that I was going to put this together on. And I just had a really busy week last week and I didn't fucking do it.

Here we go. Absolutely stacked it. Did you promise it to the neighbours or not? My responsibilities for the coronation party was to get all of the food. So I got all of the food. What did you get? I got a fridge full of sausages

and some sweets and stuff and buns. Someone else got the buns. But, you know, I was getting the business end of the barbecue sorted out. Sausages and sweets? That's the business end

of the barbecue, is it? Yeah, exactly, yeah. And I just jammed a load of the sweets in the side of the sausages like a beautiful candy treat for everybody. I mean, I didn't cook them. But, yeah, so that was my, you know, that was me flying around at Aldi

with a bag full of, you know, really off-brand gummy sweets and sausages as well. That was my role in the whole thing. But had you promised the ear? I had, I had. But I hadn't really really it wasn't on the list let's say it wasn't on the invite so i felt comfortable not doing it and letting everyone down so but but what i do have now in the cabin uh that i can see right now is um basically just a

a bit of wood with half an ear kind of a bit bit of a bit of pipe insulation in the configuration of a rough ear. Yeah. Never going to use it. Not sure what I'm going to use it for. A couple of our colleagues have asked me to say to you, please don't bring it in. No. Yeah, it's true.

I mean, that could be, I mean, I'm sure I could use it for something in the office. The thing about it is that one thing I didn't pick you up on before when you announced the King Charles coronation of the year was that he's not really, I mean, it's a quite 80s and 90s joke, isn't it, his ears?

Yeah. People don't really talk about it anymore, do they? So last time I, and also, you know, it's a bit old school bullying, isn't it? People don't generally do that sort of thing anymore. I think you're probably punching up there.

You're probably okay. Is that all right? Okay, cool, fine. That's what the money is for that's what that's what the two pound per head is i don't think people are going to get mortally offended by an unfinished pipe insulation made ear the uh yeah i think i think it is quite 80s and when i was i was in gaul for the uh so last time there was there was a big royal celebration, the Jubilee, obviously. I was tasked with being the goalkeeper

in the penalty shootout wearing a Queen's mask. And this time round I was wearing a Prince Charles mask and added ears as well. Oh, so you went the full hog with that. Well, our neighbour Neil, who, let me make it very clear, apparently does not get hangovers ever, which I find very hard to believe. But it turns out he just doesn't really get hangovers.

Is he a bigger boy? Yeah, he is a bigger boy. But I mean, I just don't know how he... I mean, he's perfect. I mean, his job is working in the city. So I imagine he's had a great 20 years there. You know what I mean? Just having the best time.

Never had a hangover. That's the kind of people you're hobnobbing with now. You know, city traders and stockbrokers in the stockbroker belt of Leon C, mate. Exactly, exactly. Don't dox me, thank you. Oh, sorry. In the belt.

Yeah, he doesn't get hangovers, but he brought out some Prince Charles ears. And I was like, where do you even get those from? The 80s, presumably. The 80s, it seems. Because it's not part of the discourse. My point is that it's not part of the discourse anymore. No.

There's a bit of meme activity around the fingers. Yeah, that's the new thing, isn't it? Yeah, but there's no real talk of the... I don't really know why. Do you reckon that's why he... Do you reckon bodybuilders inject themselves with that oil to pump up the muscles a little bit? Do you reckon he injected his fingers with that stuff

so that people stopped talking about his ears no i think it's a medical condition i think it's gout pete uh no i think do you not think do you not think that he think he knew the coronation was coming up he knew he's going to get the crown on the head and people will be saying well you know it's it's a more secure fit than than ever before because obviously the ears stop it from slipping down. Yeah. I mean, maybe that's just evolution in action. Yeah, exactly.

He's born to wear the crown. Yeah. And therefore he's got the physical anatomy to do so. Heaviest the head that wears the crown. Doesn't matter. I've got big old fucking listening devices on the side of my head. It's fine. Did you watch the TV coverage of it?

I didn't. I was too busy hoovering. I was too busy over it. I was too busy tidying the house up. Oh, because you have a guest. So I actually missed all of the... I missed everything that happened. I saw a picture of Penny Mordant with the weird sword thing. She looked amazing, by the way.

Yeah. It's a bit... It tips into kind of Final Fantasy, kind of like, what has gone on here? Why have they got a big sword? Do you know what I felt like it was? I felt like it was like, you know, all these kind of cultural touch points

of the things that people find really entertaining, like Game of Thrones and video games and the rest of it. You think, oh, they get their inspiration from all these different places. And then when you get a window into like the old traditions of royalty, it's like, fucking, this is weird.

This is mad. Like Penny Morden, who's, can I just say for the record he's politics i do not agree with in any fucking way shape or form but she looked amazing like she's basically dressed in this amazing like it was basically straight off of the fucking costume set of game of thrones yeah with a massive sword that she just had the hand that she just hold there for no real reason apart from the hands of prince charles about two hours later yeah and it was it was an epically good performance you gotta give credit where it's due she looks brilliant you do she did i had no idea where the ideas come from for all the different

outfits that were being worn no and and you sort of think right have they added is this like the met gala is everyone just going off the script or is this kind of was this happening the last time this happened and we just you know we for whatever reason we don't have access to the uh who's checking it to the yeah who's checking the authenticity here yeah who's who's who's um who's essentially deciding checking and enforcing the dress code that is 800 years old and involves quite a lot of jerkins and tights. It's very like, right, who, right, was there a skateboard involved last time? Because you've brought a skateboard with jewels on it,

stolen from, you know, one of the colonies and stuff. It's just stolen. I like how they all, because one thing that Britain is good at, and I'm not saying this is like a positive or a negative, which is the observation, the pageantry and the organisation and stuff,ain's pretty good at that yeah like so you've got talent for it oh definitely and if you if you if you see about the correlation like it was on tv the way it was filmed the way it was organized the way it was kind of um carried out

was um was like pretty flawless like it's and i think if you were someone from a different planet coming down looking at this, first of all, you'd obviously be very confused, but you'd also go, okay, this is quite interesting. This is basically like a movie. He is the king because he has the biggest hands. They probably assumed that's the case. Yeah.

Was there not a ring complement to the whole thing? Would he not have to wear a ring? He was wearing rings anyway. Right, okay. So I kind of feel like at some point when I get a bit older and larger, I'm not going to get my wedding ring off. It's going to be part of it. It's one of those things as you get older, maybe you can't.

If you're of the metabolism that I am metabolism that i am and you might be able to those fingers are very much built for uh like proper lemmy style heavy jewelry and really you can really a proper skull kind of ring maybe that's something you should have gone for we can't go into the um kind of paraphernalia that letmy used to like no very different very different vibes yeah yeah i very much enjoy i very of course i don't very much enjoy but the discourse around that uh the latest of the i mean why we should treat you with any sort of fucking uh um um i don't know correct uh how am i going to say this i don't know why we should treat uh mass shootings as anything other than fucking ridiculous because they just keep fucking happening.

But that bloke who people are going, like, we would just never know why he did this. And he's got literal swastikas tattooed onto his body. And it's like, why would we do this? Yeah, why would we do this? Some people have found a lot of his internet footprint now. You're talking about the guy in Texas, yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah. A lot of his internet footprint now he's basically a Nazi

yeah yeah he's got SS and swastika tattoos on his body we'll never know why he did this we'll just never know no

we do know don't we I think we do know I think we've got a pretty good idea where'd that come from I can't remember well let me let me

have a Nazi memorabilia from memory. Yeah, do you know that certain older men have to do that defence, don't they? Where they have to go, no, no, I'm just really interested in the history. Just really interested in the history. If you have to say that. Yeah.

If you're on Facebook Marketplace, a lot of people in Essex like to put some pretty moody memorabilia, let's say, on Facebook Marketplace. memorabilia, let's say, on Facebook Marketplace, and what they'll do is they'll flip the image so that the swastikas in question on the Nazi memorabilia are... What? People are selling that on Facebook Marketplace?

Oh yeah. I mean, very briefly, and then they get rid of it, but I think the automatic image checkers, if it's the swastika way around, they obviously... What are they actually selling? Just tat, just fucking medals and stuff. I don't fucking know.

I'm no expert, but yeah, you occasionally see it on physical markers, and you're like, that's a bit fucking naughty. They shouldn't be allowed to do that. No. No. And maybe the shape of your King Charles III coronation ear

was just a little bit one screw out of place and you're in big trouble oh no yeah and did you presumably you massively enjoyed

the coronation concert as well oh that was good wasn't it like Lionel Richie was I don't know what it is about I mean I do know what it is

people who are literally like 75 years old they can't sing as well as they could when they were in their 40s. And I feel sad for them in a way. Yeah. So they have to kind of do, not really sing, but sort of let the crowd sing and sort of just do little kind of like intermittent like yelps and whoa, hey, hey, all night long, oh, hey.

And sound a bit like a cat. That's your identity, right? Yeah. And that's what you've been known for, songwriting, performing, hey, all night long. Oh, hey. And sound a bit like a cat. That's your identity, right? Yeah. And that's what you've been known for, songwriting, performing, singing, right? And so you get asked to do a massive event. I mean, it's kind of the lesser of two evils because missing out and doing it,

I mean, it's the same thing that happened with Diana Ross last summer, right? Right. Iconic legend spot in Glastonbury you know and people just wanted to see her right yeah i remember my mum saying that she saw her back in the 70s was amazing like one of the most amazing things amazing singer brilliant performer you know classic performer all-time timeless kind of songs yeah and but you go and see her last summer and it's not very good and it's like what why are we doing this?

But from their point of view, they're like, Lionel Richie's obviously going to say yes to that gig. Yeah. So it's kind of a weird situation, I think. I found it a little bit... I want to see some hands as big as my face. That's why I did it. I thought you're not supposed to be talking about people's faces,

you said earlier. What do you mean? Are you punching up with Lionel Richie as well now, are you? Yeah, he's minted. He's probably as well off as Prince Charles, for crying out loud. King Charles. King Charles, sorry. And I wouldn't have thought he is.

Just to make that absolutely clear. But you texted me at the time of the Coronation concert, Peter, so I know you were watching it, and you said you enjoyed the drone display. I did enjoy the drone display. I was a bit gutted that Katy Perry didn't do a song about Just Eat, which is my favourite song of hers. Yeah.

But, yeah, where do those drones go? Like, where do they kind of swoop down to somewhere? Do they just swoop down to the gardens, or do they swoop over to Kent? Where do they swoop down to? I'm fairly certain. I'd love to see them land. I'm fairly certain i first saw that

drone display type thing on an american version of x-factor or britain's got talent or something yeah so america had a version of i think it's of x-factor called x-factor extreme or something right where it was outside of the massive airfield and the ambition was just much bigger and so basically a guy would be jumping over a speeding sports car or swinging through, firing himself out of a cannon while on fire. It was that kind of thing. And one of them was this drone display. And this was a few years ago now.

And it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life. And I was literally, how is that even possible? And obviously it's all done by a computer program. And now, of course, it's been taken on famously, of course, Peter, with Major Tom. Major Tom. Or Colonel Tom, whatever he's called. What is he called?

Captain Tom. Captain Tom. Major Tom is David Bowie, isn't he? Captain Tom had a big drone display at New Year's Eve a year or two ago, didn't he? Yes. And that's where a lot of people saw it. That was the funniest incarnation of it, I think it's fair to say it was just confusing it was just

confusing and uh and uh the the one that the coronation was of course an environmental message with the big whale and stuff which i thought was very well done the way they transitioned the the whale from the uh screen up into the drones. But it's pretty fucking cool. Yeah. It's incredible what they can do. And it's incredible how they managed to... How one of the batteries doesn't decide to just pack up and crash through all of the other drones in a big fireball. I mean, that would be amazing, wouldn't it?

Yeah, because my experience of a drone is that you... I've seen my friend with one. You can't get it off the ground. Smash it before, yeah. Where it does get off the ground it goes into a hedge and the battery runs out and you'll go back inside again that's basically my experience of a drone

my experience of a drone is borrowing one off the humorous Danny Wallace because my dad wanted to fly one going to the field behind my mum and dad's house getting it up there making it go upside down by accident

smashing it into the ground and breaking a bit of the palestarian off and watching my dad fix it with some superglue later on that day that is very much our experience of a drug did Danny Wallace find out? I don't know I mean we fixed it

I mean it's fine it wasn't we didn't lose complete hull did you tell him though? did you tell him? yeah I think so if I didn't you don't sound sure

I'm sure he's fine with it you don't sound sure because you little telltale tits online will probably fucking tell him. Because to me, the principle there is that even if you fix it, you should probably tell them. Oh, don't worry, I'll fix it. I honestly can't remember. But if I didn't...

Well, you are squirming right now. I would like to apologise to Danny Wallace. There was a small, non uh important part of the drone it's all important it's all important they need to be glued that my dad glued because of his bad flying every bit of it's important it's a drone that was just out of the plane oh don't worry it's broken off but it's a non-important bit so we'll just fix it later it is if you watch any of those mentor pilot videos there's loads of like advisories going about oh you probably want to fix that before it goes really wrong advisory it was an advisory break okay fine and that was back in the

day when the drones were like quite rudimentary quite hard to fly right yeah it was yeah it wasn't a it wasn't a it wasn't a big lad one so basically basically, with these big ones, these concerts on these kind of displays, they are presumably just programmed all by a computer and you stick them all on the ground, hit start and they go and do it. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah, they just sort of go and then go up because they're all kind of, you know,

but they're all dealing with their own, every gyroscope's dealing with their own kind of like forces, the wind from the other drones, the general environment, rain, air pressure. I find it fascinating that everything's just able to be put together, the whole thing's just put together and they're all kind of working together. It's great stuff.

I'd like to put an air rifle on one. Right, OK, and what? And do what exactly? Just follow... Chase you home from work. Chase me home from work. Yeah. I don't want to kill you.

I just want to go padink, padink off the back windscreen of your car. It would be like two minutes of flying. Because guaranteed you wouldn't have bought the right one. But what are two minutes? I won't buy one.

I'll borrow one off Danny Wallace. What? Just borrow Danny Wallace's. I want to superglue an air rifle to it. Your dad could be technical director. Your dad could fire the air rifle. I can't believe you confessed live on this podcast that you've absolutely stitched up one of your old pals.

I wasn't stitched up. Like, it was glued up, if anything, and my dad just fixed it. So it was just a bit of polystyrene had fallen off't. I stitched it up. Like, it was glued up, if anything, and my dad just fixed it. So it was just a bit of polystyrene had fallen off, so he glued it back. But if I didn't tell him, I'm sorry, Danny, all right? I'm sorry. And I know Rob is clicking and clipping this bit.

When you returned it, you must have known. You knew. I'm fairly certain I said. I'm fairly certain I said. But that was my experience. We flew it for a bit. A bit of polystyrene fell off, and my dad had to glue it back on. So it's fine.

You're annoyed with yourself because you're technically, you think of yourself as a technical guy, so. Yeah. I wasn't flying at the time. My dad was. The whole reason why I borrowed it off Danny was because my dad wanted to fly one, but he didn't want to be an old fart who goes into Dixon's and buys a drone. So I had to borrow Danny's son's one.

Oh, his son's one? That, it's his son's one. That's even worse. Ruined his week. Daddy, daddy, why does my drone not fly the same anymore? Because two angry northern men have ruined it. That's why. Oh, dear. Anyway, there's some a break.

When we come back, we've got some batteries to do, Peter. Some of which, you know, batteries could have come from drones for all we know. Correct. Do they use batteries? Nah, it's magic, isn't it? I thought it was, yeah. Petrol. Yeah.

Kerosene. We're back with a little compete show. And every Thursday, we go through your batteries, what you found in all remote controls. Bradley has got in touch. I was hunting through my work building. I like that. Like dressed in like leather. Hunting through my work building.

Hunting through with a net. John McElhane in Die Hard. Yeah, exactly. When this bright green beast caught my eye. It's probably not a new player, but fuck me, it's ugly. I hunt my work building for batteries and I drink Prime. Q-Connect. Super alkaline battery. Yeah, Q-Connect super alkaline battery

Q-Connect yeah Q is this Bradley who sent this in yeah certainly is yeah Bradley you are the let's have a look

two four sixth person to send Q-Connect in yeah Jack Peter sent them in right the beautifully named

Ryan Ruddle sent them in Benjamin Tom yeah some other people have sent them in before so you're not a new player there I'm afraid but thank you very much for sending in a bright green battery and announcing that you drink Prime it's always nice to hear from people like that

what a shame, what a shame Gareth has got in touch, hi guys, no toilet bread shenanigans here, just some good old battery salvaging after finding a box of toys from my childhood by which I mean being brutally given them by the mother I have access to no toilet bread shenanigans here, just some good old battery salvaging. After finding a box of toys from my childhood, by which I mean being brutally given them by the mother I have access to, I found a dancing turtle which required a battery change. This was it, I thought.

My chance to enter LAPS, Lapse History, and enter a new player into the game. I shouted, this is it, this is my chance to enter the game. To which my fiancée I have access to replied, what the hell are you on about, you weirdo? She will never understand. May I present to you the Dishy Super Alkaline AAA. Dishy, fingers crossed for a new player. I think this Dishy is going to, yeah, it's going to be a new player.

Yeah, I think what Gareth needs to work out is whether he wants to have a new player enter in the game or to marry his fiancée. Yeah, it's a good point, actually. It sounds like it's one or the other. Well, the good news is he has entered a new player into the game because we've never had Dishy before. It's great to see a 1.5 volt AAA Dishy. They're from China by the look of it

because the URL on the side of them is china-dishy.com. But it's a new player, so congratulations to you, Gareth. Delicious, delicious stuff. David has got in touch. Final one for now. Regular email, a long-time listener.

I've had these AAAs sat on my bedside table for some time while debating whether to send them in. They seem so simple and possibly slipped under the radar. Therefore, I offer to you a KTS. They almost look a bit bent, but I think it's just the design they've got on the mix it look that way uh kts the photo is absolutely fucking massive as well so it's great and i think it's it's been taken off uh in the background there's some kind of uh is that a bm at i want to Yeah, it looks like it could be a beer mat. Some kind of rubbery coaster, I would say.

KTS is a new player as well, so congratulations to you, David. So Gareth with his Dishy and David with his KTS. Two new players out of three entering the game this week. Great to see. The tradition is alive and well, isn't it, Peter? Yeah, it certainly is. But if you've got some batteries, send them in. Hello at lunkpeachowow.com yeah i was gonna say before we uh before we push on out of here um i the one question i forgot to ask you um i really wanted to um earlier was did you have any coronation quiche didn't have any coronation quiche uh if i'd have eaten more i wouldn't have

had a coronation hangover for this length of time, I think. So I spent a lot of my time just eating like little mini sausages when I should have gone for the bigger sausages. So in summary, eat a big sausage and you'll be fine. I feel like we've been shortchanged because when the Queen was coronated, we got coronation chicken, which is seen as a bit of a classic now. We did, yes. So we need like a King Charles specific dish, I suppose. Well, I understand why they went for the Coronation Cheese they went for, because apparently they wanted to go for like a vegetarian thing

and talk about sustainability and the rest of it. Because to be absolutely fair to King Charles, he's always been on about the environment, like for 50 years. Like I understand that like people will have an issue with the

perhaps the lifestyle that the royal family is afforded by you know how that impacts the environment or the rest of it but you can check

the record like King Charles or as he was then Prince Charles has been pushing on the environmental issue for a very long time to the point where

he was very heavily criticised for it because people saw it as political I don't actually think environmental issues should be political but that's a separate point so he clearly wanted to do something that that was a bit more sustainable that's why it's like um it's got spinach and broad beans and tarragon and stuff isn't it but what all i'm saying is um coronation chicken was accepted into the bosom of the nation and you can i mean you can

buy a corn i mean my neighbour the other day was talking about having a lovely coronation chicken sandwich from Tesco. So it's part of the daily life now. And I think the coronation quiche is very unlikely to do the same. There was no need for them to even select a quiche. They could have selected anything. Yeah, we could have had... I just think we could have something like a nice kebab or something.

I would have done a coronation sausage. Yeah. People love sausages anyway. Exactly, yeah. Or, you know, a coronation pie. Pies are much more kind of available and part of the oeuvre than a quiche is. I don't think pies are scalable, though. It reminds me of that day-to-day sketch with the pie pie. Do you remember the... Oh, you'll though it reminds me of that day to day sketch with the pie pie

do you remember the where they had the pie oh you'll have to remind me of that it might have been Fist of Fun actually where the pie was just made up of like last year's pie

and when they'd finished they'd put last year's pie filling into this year's pie and it would just be constant pie yeah yeah I think

that must have been one of Richard Herring's was it might have been one of Richard Herring's might have been one of Richard Herring's, was it? Might have been one of Richard Herring's. Might have been one of Richard Herring's, yeah. Does Stuart Lee and Richard Herring dislike each other now? I don't care.

All right, we'll see you on Monday. Can't wait till we fall out. the luke and pete show is a stack production and part of the Acast Creator Network.
