1 pound fish, 1 pound fish, what's 1 pound fish? Pete Donaldson and Luke and Pete Shaw and Luke and the Pete and the Shaw and the Luke and the fish and the 1 pound fish. Who wants some 1 pound fish? Do you want some 1 pound fish Luke? Do you remember the 1 pound fish man? Well I was about to say that is a really really super hot off the press mean that a load of people listening to this won't have heard about yet. No exactly. But trust me it's going to go big. They always come around.

He performed in Up and Park for West Ham fans hilariously. He would sing the one pound fish hat in the dugout at Up and Park. In the dugout? I don't think it was in the dugout was it? In front of the dugout. In front of the dugout having a little sing song. One pound fish barbwitch. Come on coach put me in.

Put me in coach. One pound fish. He got chucked out of the country because he was illegally there on a student visa. Don't become a singing fishmonger if you try to keep your head down on a student visa. I wonder if you went back and watched that you could possibly see the regret in his eyes that I'm getting too big. Yeah. Someone's filming me on a Nokia 3210 for crying out loud.

I've got to keep my head down. I need to not use my real name. Come on ladies, come on ladies, one pound fish. Have a look, have a look, it's one pound fish. Very very good, very very cheap, it's one pound fish. But then he goes on to say say the final stanza is all about six or five pounds so you've absolutely mugged yourself off there mate, because it's not one pound fish, it's less than one pound fish. Yeah, if you go in bulk. And that's why you should have been kicked out of the country, for inaccuracy,

not for outstaying a student visa. I think the vast majority of people who are in the UK illegally are overstayers on visas. Most of them I think are Australians actually. I think that definitely used to be the case anyway. And none of them are very singles. Well that's not true. I imagine some of them have. Well Nick Cave did it for a bit. I don't think Nick Cave's on an expired student visa. Get it out there. Let's find out.

Look, it's like the truth are... You can say what you want nowadays. You can say what you want and people do have to defend their position. We talked about this before we started recording today and I'm just going to repeat it now. You very much cannot just say what you want. You know that. You've been in this game a long time now. Just because you put your snazzy jumper on doesn't mean you can say what you want. I was in Next, I bought some, you know like Next you go in and buy a shirt, I bought a couple of shirts because I've outgrown them because I'm a bigger

boy now. And they've got like those kind of pre sort of wrapped up kind of contorted plastic, like wrapped in plastic shirts that are like hanging up and so you can't get into them and start trying them on but they do have um a an array of um shirts that show you exactly how big all of the shirts are so there's like kind of stunt stunt shirts that you can sort of wear you can roll up and wear and i was like i mean the special shirts are chosen for that job. Yeah, exactly. I guess they're more robust than normal shirts. Cause if you go into a hanger

that's got a lot of testers on there, it's just not something I've ever seen anywhere else other than the next, a little sort of, a little practice shirt before the big day buying the 26 quid one. When people talk about the biggest polluters in the world and the ones with the biggest carbon footprint I reckon that the entirety of US the US and China put together Does not have the same carbon footprint as one?

menswear section of formal shirts in next the amount of packaging and those shirts is Absolutely incredible, but have you ever opened one of those up and seen how far, the amount of plastic, what happens is you take plastic after plastic after a little glass bath, you take a bit of cardboard out, you take another bit of plastic out from under the collar, you do it for about five minutes. Under the collar, inside the collar, a big circle of plastic there. And that's a crucial part of it because that's the only way you can find the rest of it. Yeah, when you've got it on you take all the rest of them off.

Yeah, and you sort of unfold yourself like a transformer, because it's all been clipped up. And there's bits of sort of waxy paper in there as well. Awful. There is. I went through a phase a few years ago now where I kind of had an epiphany which turned out not really to work. I'll tell you why I'll come on to that. But I was sitting around one day thinking, I'm in a pretty fortunate position because I've got my own company, I can't work for myself, do broadcasting, no one expects me to dress smart, right? So I've not got this kind of endless treadmill of formal stuff that I need to wear. So what I'll do is I'll take that money I would have spent on that, I'll buy a couple of nice suits, four or five

like bespoke shirts, that's all I'll ever need, get them fitted, I spent a bit of money but it'll last me, just dry clean them for as long as you want and they're good quality, because I never have to wear full my stuff and then I'll be sorted for any wedding, any kind of big event or whatever, I'm sorted, right? And that worked for a bit and then I just got fatter and now none of those shirts fit me. And now I thought to myself, you've learnt that the hard way because what you could have done was just bought some cheap shirts in lots of different sizes for your weight fluctuation and you'd never be short of a shirt again.

Now I've basically got really expensive shirts in the wardrobe that I just simply cannot wear. I've got a Vivienne Westwood shirt that has, is way too kind of fashion-y. Not fashionable, fashion-y for me to wear. It's wearing you, is it? It's wearing you. It's wearing me. The colour is no word of a lie, that tall. It is obscene.

It's Harry Hill. It's Harry Hill. And every time I go in I go, I'm not wearing that. Nah. But it's not pointy like Harry Hill, it's Harry Hill. And every time I go in I go, I'm not wearing that. Nah. But it's not pointy like Harry Hill, it's just really, it's like a, you know like when um, like uh, Karl Lagerfeld. Tribes people, well yeah, well like where tribes people put rings and the more rings

the older they are. It's a bit like that really, and I'm a million years old. Are you aware of the aesthetic of the late great Karl Lagerfeld? He's that sort of little spooky fellow with white hair and sunglasses, isn't he? Yeah but his collars were always like that. Really chunky, right. I've dropped it to you in the WhatsApp group. Let me know, because people listening will know what I mean.

Let me know if it's like that. Yeah, I mean he's like... Yeah it's a little bit... Yes it is, it's exactly like that. So yeah, so... Why did you buy that? Why inspired you to buy that? It was... I think it is, it's exactly like that. So yeah, so, Living Westwood was- Why'd you buy that? Why'd you decide to buy that?

It was, I think it was in a TK Maxx. I think it was, I was like, oh, that's a name. That's a Living Westwood, that's probably a decent shirt. If nothing else, it'll be at least built properly. But then yeah, I put it on and I'm like, I've never worn it. And I keep looking at it. I think you've got to,

I think, so you, I said this last time we recorded, didn't I? I said you've got a kind of well done but confusing style. You tread that line quite a lot and it can go... I think if you deviate too much one way or the other, it can look like you got dressed in the dark. It's just confusing. I'm not even criticizing you because I dress like an absolute schlub, so I'm not even criticizing you. I just think that you can, you do fly quite close to the sun. I was at an awards last night and it was a fairly formal kind of, you know,

drink sting and then the awards themselves were in an auditorium at the British Film Institute, the BFI on the South Bank and it was the Audio Production Awards and Stac won a couple of things and you know, great. We're very happy with that. Thank you very much. But the invite said, you know, it's an award, so dress glam. And I was like, you know what, a couple of days ago, a couple of days before I was like, do you know what, I don't mean this in an obnoxious way or I'm better than this kind

of way, but I am just simply not doing that. I haven't got the capacity or the bandwidth to be dressing formally for an event midweek at this point in my life. I've got a toddler, I've got a business, I can't do it. So I just wore my normal clothes. No one said anything. But the point I was going to make is just that there were some people there Who were dressed amazingly and there were some people there who thought they were dressed amazingly. Yes. Okay. Well, it's kind of I think fine dress on a man we've sort of reached a bit of a sort of sort of hinterland between the next thing and I think we've got a situation where Topman is dead.

And so therefore, you can't get away with buying those, um, suits three sizes too small, so they look like they're fitted. Um, and I think that the, the, the age of the skinny suit is over. The age of the skinny suit is over. Um, and- Well, Jake Paul was rocking by then, after his fight with Tyson, how he looked fucking awful. The skinny suit is over. Jake Paul was rocking by then after his fight with Tyson how he looked fucking awful. The amount of access he must have to fashion advice, to stylists, the amount of money he's

got. He's chosen to dress like that and it looked fucking terrible because it was a bastardization of formal wear. It's so bad. It's that kind of, there's a designer in London called Joshua Kane and he's worth a follow on Instagram because he's a quite curious looking chap but he's, I've met him a couple of times, he's a nice bloke, but he sort of very much started doing a lot of very detailed sort of graphic sort of print, not prints but like kind of embroidered kind of fabrics for like skinny, skinny wee suits and stuff. And I've noticed that like people like John

Peterson have started wearing very, very ornate, very, very ornate kind of fabrics and stuff. I'm not saying that Kent dresses him but obviously not. You probably don't really get that much choice do you? I guess not, especially if you're buying off the peg I suppose. I don't think he really refused to dress anyone but I don't think he has dressed him. But he's sort of wearing a lot of like very busy, almost like stained glass window suits and stuff. He looks very curious at the moment. He looks like a haunted pencil anyway.

Well I sort of look at him and I sort of go, yeah that would have been a bit of me He looks very curious at the moment and like it's... He looks like a haunted pencil anyway. Well I sort of look at him and I sort of go, yeah that would have been a bit of me if Topman were still open. I would have pushed the bar out further and further until I looked like Jon Peterson. I think there's clearly exceptions to every role. I like the Dyer Workwear guy on social media, he's really good. And I think the reason he's really good is he's very clearly able to explain why certain looks work. And there's not a lot of men's fashion stuff out there. And I think if you get into the age that we are, it's a bit of

a hinterland really, because you don't want to dress old, but you'll still want to dress too young. And so it's good to get some tips on that type of stuff. But I just don't have the bandwidth to worry about at the moment. But what I would say, my general take on menswear has always been that in informal environments, you know, that's just kind of do what you want. Right. To me, the analogy I would use is informal environments, like it's like rock music, it's like pop music, it's like innovations fun, you know, have a bit of fun with it, do your thing. But to me, formal events, I like, it's like innovations fun, have a bit of fun with it, do your thing. But to me, formal events, it's like classical music, right? I feel like it should be, there's a reason

why these classic looks are great for men, and it's not when the trousers are fucking six inches too short or the jacket's too small, or you're pulling the fucking, nothing fits properly. That to me just feels a bit like putting a drum and bass fucking track over a fucking piece of classical music. It's like, it's all wrong, it doesn't look right, and nothing fits properly. That to me just feels a bit like putting a drum and bass track over a piece of classical music. It's all wrong, it doesn't look right, I can't work it out. So I think in formal way you should be more traditional I think. And there's ways

of being really fucking well dressed in a traditional way. It's not like you have to be boring about it, but anyway that's my 10 pence worth. By the way, speaking of the audio production awards, right, so, keener listeners to the show will like this, but Peter, I think you'll enjoy it. So I've been very critical of the British podcast awards, right? As you know, pretty publicly critical of it, to the point where I attracted the ire of the creator of them on more than one occasion on social media.

But I thought he sold out. He doesn't... He has, he has. I guess he still identifies with it, which I actually understand because he created it. He's like the one about Fish Man. He probably still thinks about fish quite a lot even though he's been chucked out. Well, as luck would have it, guess who I was put next to last night? Oh, you last night? Oh that's a shame. I would probably leave at that point. I'm putting it in the WhatsApp group because you know what I'm talking about but you don't. I don't know what you're talking about. But you would, I think you'd revel in styling it out personally. I think you'd revel in having a good time. I'm not obnoxious about it. I think, I think people maybe...

It's like, remember when they exploded that big nuclear bomb in the test and now you can't find any metal that is, that doesn't have like, you know, stress amounts of radiation in it. I'm basically the human microcrash. Go around shipwrecks. Yeah, exactly. You've always got a base level surely. Well, I'll let you know what I did and then you can judge if that was obnoxious or not. I said hello, I sat down next to him, I smiled. Put your cigar out on his neck. No, I moved out the way he wanted to get out of his seat and I just carried on perfectly normal. I didn't in vocal conversation, I didn't instigate anything, I just carried on with my life.

Oh, this is deliciously awkward. I love it, I love it. I think I've realized the awkwardness more than he does. So I think it's fine. Yeah, well, I guess he'd be that sort of person, I suppose. I think he's a bit more like me and you're a bit like you. And neither of you really want to talk about it. It's a problem, isn't it? It's not a personal thing.

I don't know the guy personally, so it's not personal at all. But if he wants to go, I'll go. If he wants to die. I'm obviously joking. I'm obviously joking. It was just one of those things where I thought you'd be interested in because it is awkward. I am. Correct. It is awkward. And the thing is, I haven't really got any beef with much stuff. I mean, you disagree with that probably, but I could have been put next to anyone else in that thing and it wouldn't have been an issue. But it's just as luck would have it. Although I would say,

I would say the audio production awards as well, this is probably not going to do me any favors, but I think it's important to be honest. Quite a lot of chat by the sponsors of the event about how important independent creators are. While they're sitting on quite a large invoice, they should be paying us. And we are an independent creator

and could quite do with that money. So perhaps we should practice with their creek. Why are they in hock to us? I'm confused. Just disobey them. Just disobey them. I'll tell you later. I don't wanna kind of.

Let's air it out. Let's air it out. Let's get the invoice number out there. Put the invoice number out there. Let's give them more bank details. All right, let me think about the remittance. Hang on... Let's air it out. Let's air it out. Let's get the invoice number out there. Put the invoice number out there. Let's give them our bank details. All right, let me think about the remittance. Hang on. Let's get them out.

I did some... I owed an insurance company for a car like 120 quid this week. There's a surprise. And it's just been... Why is that a surprise? You're on the run from several Avis car rental places. No, two, and it's not Avis actually. It's disputed. I'm a very happy customer of Avis and they're very great for my business. Disputed actually. Yeah no it's not Avis though. Take that back. Take that back. Don't get me on another blacklist.

Hurts. Everybody hurts. I'm already two dead. No I'm good with Hurts as well. I've got a site book for them for the US. So don't get me on them either. It's national enterprise. National enterprise. That's a shame they're not a market leader, that would have been humorous. But I owe them a bit of money because I got insurance for Sarah's car. And they just kept on bothering me. They needed like my no claims proof and my driving license bollocks. And I was busy and I just like let it slide. And then they just went, you know what, we're canceling this. driving licensed bollocks and I was busy and I just like let it slide and then

they just went you know what we're cancelling this. I was like ahhh balls ahhh piss and so they're then they were like and you owe us 120 quid I was like alright fine I'll get round to that playing that at some point and then of course they after about three days they handed it over to a collections agency because they thought I was on the run That's what you want though, you haven't got to pay that Yeah, well I went back and said to the insurance company, right what do I owe? and it was an amount of money and then the Collections agency keep ringing me going you owe this amount of money like there's the same amount of money but like 20 quid

there little bump amount of money like this the same amount only but like 20 quid a little little bump I'm like I've only paid it and here's the proof and it's just a delicious like email saying you are now up to date with all our payments and lovely that's lovely oh that's there's nothing better proof delicious just pushing that across the table I can't get enough of that to be honest that's lovely folding that PDF from my Google Drive oh just, just get, Sarah's like, what are you smiling at? I was going, something delicious Sarah, I'm smiling at something delicious.

No, you said, come in and sit down, I'll tell you. I'll tell you. Pull up a pew. Pull up a pew and she'll say, what do you mean you're not interested in my car? There's nothing important there! There's nothing important there! No, that's not the point. The top tip for those debt collection agencies, which basically

operate in the grey area of the law, is if they come to your house, which they never fucking do, because their debt's normally not worth it, they just send a couple of letters and hope they kind of frighten some people into paying them because they've bought those debts like pennies on the pound, if they come to your door, don't have to open the door, you don't have to say anything to them if you don't want to. But what you can say is, so dispute a payment, come back with a court order and I'll talk about paying it. But unless you're an officer of the court with a court order or an injunction or whatever,

I'm not obliged to pay it and I'm not going to pay it. And by the way, it's a criminal offense to pose as an officer of the court when you're not one. So if you are going to say you're an officer of the court officer of the court I need to see some ID proving it and that's that I've said that before out the window I've said that out the window in this very room yeah Magna Carta shouted something about the Magna Carta It felt very very like divorced dad, fathers for justice energy

but they're worse than you you've got to remember they're worse than you you're down the gutter wrestling You've got to remember they're worse than you. You're down the gutter wrestling. You've got to do it sometimes. Yeah, it does take a certain kind of person to be doing those kind of, you know, just... And what I like about it is they're like quite weirdly officious aggressive weirdos who are serving... Too basically, too controversial or too bad a record to be a policeman. That's what they are. Exactly, I don't want to hang out with them either. I don't want them banging on my door, whatever.

Because you know that they could just get another job somewhere else doing this. Luke, sleep talking. Yes, sleep talking, not sleep talking, because your accent makes it confusing. No, no, no, no, I do a lot of Sleep Talking. But the whole Sleep Talking vibe, you've got to be thinking about Sleep Talking now, Sleep Talking. Why did we talk about that band, like, weeks ago? I can't remember.

Because we were talking about drum sessions on YouTube. Right. And so it was a famous jazz drummer learning about sleep talking for the first time. No, no. It was, it was, we talked about the jazz drum a bit and then I said, Oh, have you seen that Drumeo video of the guy from Sleep Token who does all of the interview with a mask on and a voice distort because he doesn't want anyone to know who he is. And it's strangely very comical. I see. And then we doxed them last week on the show.

They'd already been doxed. We don't, don't claim that. It's not a claim to fame. All right, fine. All right. I listened to a bit of Sleep Talking and would you like my, my review is Bastille, they just sound like Bastille. Oh my god. Do you not think? No because I don't know what Bastille sound like. Yeah, they just sound like Bastille with a bit of chunky guitars. Were you expecting it to be a lot of... You expected it to be a lot heavier? I expected it to be a lot heavier, I expected it to be less... Because they're like spooky mask people, right? And they're supposed to be like ethereal and all that stuff.

Spooky mask men. And they're supposed to be like ethereal and stuff. But then some of the lyrics are like, I wanna turn a good girl bad and stuff. Like really heck lyrics. And I I'm like oh come on mate I thought you'd probably do better than that couldn't you supposed to be spooky spooky boy talk about being a ghost or living between the worlds or something I don't know I don't hear you talking about you know turning a good girl bad and

stuff yeah I saw the hanging up in a hanging up like cold cuts in it in a in a fridge I don't think you would hang cold cuts up in a... Hanging up like cold cuts in a fridge. I don't think you would hang cold cuts up in a fridge, would you? Wouldn't you just sort of lay them down on a tray? I don't know. Some of the... So I went on the Sleep Token Reddit, right? And there was a Reddit thread which was your favourite Sleep Token lyrics.

And when they're written down for some reason they are really funny. Yeah, okay. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some.

I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some.

I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. I'll read you some. Like, what about this then? You make me wish I could disappear? Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's all pretty basic. I don't know.

I don't mind that, like, there's a song, The Summoning, and that's all kind of quite sort of about rivers and blood. And not in any, not anywhere,, but it's just rivers and floods and stuff. But there's just like, it kind of contorts between spooky stuff and you gave me nothing whatsoever, but a reason to leave. It's just like, oh mate. Sing about Sheffield's sex city. Sing about being working class in the Northeast.

Please do. I quite like, I mean I suppose it's not really the music I would reach for, but I do quite like it. I think it's a bit unfair just doing it in a mix like that. I quite like it in the same way that, you know, the deftones just knew how to kind of rise above talking about me me me do you know what I mean I know like it was kind of like it was all about yeah shifting and stuff yeah the deftones are good yeah why doesn't everybody listen to the deftones instead of sleep talking I'd sound like such an old man but I was just going sounds like Bastille and the deftones mixed together

on that note the other day I was listening to an episode of The Rest Is Politics and it was a question time episode. I really like the show, I really like listening to it, so I'm not going to slag it off or anything. But Roy Stewart is obviously, I mean he's amazing but in one way he's actually quite odd and quite out of touch with culture, right? Like, it's an episode that came out- Honestly, when you hear him talk about stuff and he's just completely unaware about stuff, you sort of go, what a lovely life. Mate, this was-

He's probably got a few quid away, hasn't he? The example I'm about to give you is almost unbelievable, right? So, there's an episode on the 21st of November, it's a Question Time episode, and I think at the end of it they did like a throwaway question about what you've been watching recently. And Alistair Campbell gave some answer. And then Roy Stewart, almost like a nine year old child, was like, oh, my wife Shoshana took me to go and see Bob Dylan. And then went to describe like a Bob Dylan concert, like he'd never heard of Bob Dylan before. It was honestly amazing and it was actually quite charming in a way because it was very innocent but he was like

yeah and then so he sang the lyrics in a very odd fashion and then when he got the harmonica everyone cheered but it was 85% men all looking very earnest and I was like you are really giving over vibes of someone who has never heard of Bob Dylan before, which is quite remarkable really. We're not talking about like a kind of fringy music hand. No, but also going to a gig and stuff. Do you know what I mean? At the end of one of the episodes recently, Alistair asked a question about sport and he doesn't know anything about sport. And he said, is things shifting a little bit for Manchester City? Is Pep Guardiola in

a bit of trouble or something? And he goes, well, I don't think he's in a bit of trouble. And he basically off the top of his head went, I don't think he's in a bit of trouble. I think this is an opportunity for Pep Guardiola. And it's like, oh God, it's actually quite easy punditry, isn't it? Just absolutely wibble on about fuck all. But it was a very political answer now. I really, really enjoyed that.

It's a good show. It's a good show. It's good. Weird doing it in the or two though. Yeah. I mean, it's quite cool that they're doing that. It is quite cool but as somebody pointed out it's like that Blue Jam or the day they did Question Time from Wembley. I think some rooms, I think honestly, I think our Palladium show, I felt that is the limits of how big you can make a podcast show. Well the fucking ticket sales certainly decided that. I think our palladium show, I felt that is the limit of how big you can make a podcast

show. Well the fucking ticket sales certainly decided that. We sold out, the mics weren't very good. Yeah, but we wouldn't be able to do bigger than that I think. No, no, no. But I just think functionally, I don't think you can have a fun show where you do different bits and bobs and people sort of can concentrate on four or five people's voices and stuff. Our show is also much more presentation and much more entertainment than just that.

Yeah, yeah. But I don't know, I just had to start. You just mentioned the word, mentioned in the jam, the Chris Morris's jam mentioned there, reminded me, my favourite Chris Morris jam sketch is the one where Kevin Eldon invites or calls the TV repair man around, remember that one? Is that the one where he puts like snakes or something odd?

Yeah, and the problem with the TV at these fixings is that every time he turns it on, lizards just keep coming out of it. The guy's like, well, there's nothing I can do about that. And the guy's like, you're being serious. It's fucking lizards coming out of the TV every time I turn it on. Yeah, it's not really my problem. It's funny. I also saw an amazing sketch the other day of, which I haven't seen for ages, which

is that Armando Iannucci sketch where none of his appliances work in his house so he gets an East End cockney gangster around to fucking sort them out. To turn him off, yeah. Yeah, that's so funny. Really good. Anyway, Peter, let's have a break. When we come back we've got batteries to do because it is after all a Thursday. It's the Luke and Pete show.

Every Thursday we talk about all things battery brands. Matt's got in touch. Voltomics is his choice. Hey guys, I've been listening from New Zealand since the early years of Luke and Peter's summer. Thanks to the Endless Hours of Entertainment, keep the good work. Pleasure to have you along, Matt. My favourite segment in recent years has been Battery Thursdays. We don't actually call it Battery Thursdays do we? I think we

should do though. For many years I searched for new players in hotel TV remotes only to find a succession of ever-readys and energisers obviously not worthy of being submitted. However my first child has now become a toddler and is obsessed with Thomas the Tank Engine. While at first I was not thrilled about searching every charity and thrift store across the country for Thomas merch, last week I changed the batteries to find a pair of Voltomics staring back at me. Matt, he actually sent three in but we chose the best one which was Voltomics. Don't tell people we should not let them do that Peter, I reckon we should say to people from now on if you only send one in you get it read out, if you

don't you ain't getting it fucking read out. Yeah, no, no, you're not sending no begin I know and to be fair one of those Mustang and the other was GP alkaline. You're not getting in with all this guys Waste of time you're wasting everyone's time mate Waste of time taking pictures taking pictures of your bloody batteries We just need one that you've selected that has come out of Thomas the Tank Engine's arse And we want and we want a picture of it and well done you. If you had just included that photo with the Thomas the Tank Engine in the background we'd have been very very happy but we will on this occasion allow it

because it is a new player. A... sex. Well done. Malcolm's got in touch. Hello looking Pete, the partner I've access to, found these Nacon ultra alkaline batteries in her work mouse. I they can get me on this fabled list. Fabled list. Surprisingly enough they have been sent in before this is the fourth time we've had Nacon's I didn't recognize them at all so I'm very surprised to hear that but I've done the check and unfortunately they were first sent in on the 1st of June 2022 by Simon Mitchell so Nakkon is not a new player I'm afraid but thank you for

trying anyway. You know it's like when the striker gets on the field and he just has like just to just to get his sights ready he'll just have a blast at goal just to get just to sort of narrow his sights a little bit and I think Nakkon is such a strong... Isvo. Is that your worst impression again? I just think it's such a great opening salvo. Can you settle it? Oh it's a cat it's a cat in the background on one of those cat sort of climbing frames. Yeah yeah because I was thinking I think that's a cat climbing frame and I was like looking at it really closely missing of course that there's a fucking

cat on it. What were you expecting to see on the cat climbing frame? a small child, Andy has got a dutch before you move on, no you're not moving on because what's on to the right of that photo I reckon there's another cat sleeping on the chair as well nah it's a fat, oh what on the left? no on the right? tail hanging down? no that's what I think is the is the climbing frame the left I think might be a shelf the right is a fan

that's what's going on it's a fan fucking hell I thought that was a cat it's clearly a fan, it's clearly a fucking, it's clearly a fan, it's clearly a crouch alright none of the people listening can see this Andy lovely lads hoping to secure passage to the great battery daddy in the sky for these Warriors AAAs. I found them in my son's torch, but I reckon it's a long shot given it was imported to Australia by the UK by his grandparents. Fingers and toes crossed that I find I have a new player.

However, after the Dickie Power AA controversy of 2023, when I was initially granted new player status, only to be cruelly ripped away from me in the following episodes And all the best Andy from Guilong. Oh, sorry. Zhu long literally gave me that How to write that warriors a lovely typeface. It looks like the Simpsons artist Guys, that's how he writes is that's the font he uses for pictures Yeah warriors in a little talk. So when I type these into the search,

sometimes you get one of one, and it's a new player, it's really exciting. Sometimes you get say one of 15, and you're like, ah, it's been sent quite a lot of times before. Sometimes you get really unlucky, and it's like one of two, and you've just missed out. Sometimes you type a search in, and it just says many.

Manyer. This has been sent in many, many times. I think it means that it's been sent in more than 50 times, I'm afraid. So many of Michael makes a muckle has this. Thank you for getting in touch, everyone. Hello. Look at pete show dot com. We'll be back on Monday for more looking beach show.
