The Luke and Pete Show - Roman sex toys

Episode Date: February 23, 2023

Archaeologists have dug up a 2,000-year-old Roman sex toy - those naughty Romans! On today’s episode, we have a plausible theory about who it belonged to.Additionally, Pete’s been given access to a puppy! He’s also been given access to a heart monitor and – amazingly – he starts to take it apart live on the show. It wasn’t worth it for the batteries he found inside…Want to contact the show?

Fucking hell, who's been sat in this chair? Yeah, deaf. Fucking headphones are so loud. Deaf. Dan Walker did a Paul Ansell's TV interview in the Nicola Bulley case, and now he's been knocked off his bike. You're being serious.

People are linking that shit, are they? Oh, they've gone mental. They've gone even more mental. It's the world for you these days, isn't it, Peter? It's good stuff, isn't it? It is good stuff. I like it. I like it.

All right, so should we start off with the fact that Nelson the Seal, who we discussed on Monday's show, has died after the British divers Marine Life Rescue shot the animal with a tranquiliser gun in an attempted rescue. Killed him. Would it be fair to say that not intervening there would have been the best thing in this situation?

How strong is that tranquiliser? It'll be fine. It'll be fine. Big lad, won't he? Probably take it. How do you know he's not still tranquilised? What's your cut off? Yeah, give him to...

You've brought the tranquiliser blunderbuss. Don't laugh at a dead seal. I will? No, you shouldn't. I will? I'll laugh. That's the only aquatic mammal. Are they mammals?

Yeah, they must be. They don't lay eggs, do they? Imagine a seal laying an egg. It's the only aquatic mammal you know. I think they're disgusting. They're protected... Smell of fish. They're protected under the

under the environmental health act. Your face has gone funny. Environmental health act. You can't even criticise a seal. Yeah. Because otherwise the pen pushers down at Environmental City Hall they'll have your badge and gun mate. The seal. Well seal.

What must people think if they're listening to this episode for the first time? This is the very first show. I think they probably think that we are guys who are obsessed with seals and aquatic friends. We're never going to survive

unless... It's the Luke Beecher. Hi, Peter Dawson. John Bell, Luke Moore. Hello. Got a bead on., joined by Luke Moore. Hello. Got a bead on. Did the, um... Got a bead on.

But you had your armpit sweat... It's a long time ago. It's a long time ago. It wears off. Yeah, they come back. They can't be denied mine. Unlike the... Like Jason Voorhees

in front of the station. Absolute loser seal that just lost its life after a bit of just dropping a quick soma and now he can't... So you basically just tranquilised your sweat glands under your arms

and now they've come around. Yeah, exactly. So I want to talk about your health generally, if you don't mind. Okay. But let's start off by talking about the fact that you've got a bead on. Got a bead on. You rode a bike to... I got on a line bike.

I rode all the way to Holloway. Son's battery. There's no battery on it, but they still let me on there, which is actually quite refreshing because some of the bikes don't let you on there if there's no battery on it but they still let me on there which is actually quite refreshing because some of the bikes don't let you on there if there's no battery running which is just stupid just let me ride let me ride analog baby i can't remember 70s no you don't i cannot remember 70s night in the 90s yeah i cannot tell you how that was just the 90s wasn't it i cannot tell you how much I'm into line bikes yeah

you're a big line boy I'm already a prime member I don't understand why you line prime more on that

next week £8 a month you got a line from your house in south west London and you

line biked all the way up to Russell Square it's SE27 right okay south east

really it is what did I say south east right and I actually rode to Warren Street

Warren Street. Warren Street. Which is a particular point. Why stop there? Particular point in geography. Why not come all the way to Highbury? Our international listeners won't know about. Well, I'll tell you why, actually. You want to know why?

I'll tell you why. Why don't I? I probably ride line bike. Hard. Put it away wet. I ride dirty. I ride dirty, baby. I probably ride a line bike on average.

Yeah. As in separate journeys. Right. 15 times a week. Too much citrus. It is, actually. Too much. You won't catch me with scurvy, baby.

And the reason I rode from home to Warren Street today is because on my journey in from South London up to North London, where the studio is, there are several opportunities to get off and get on another form of transport. Yes. I need the tube. Yeah.

Right. You just wheeling on straight past them baby Brixton went past it today beautiful Victoria line you would have been up to Highbury in seconds it's actually 19 minutes

and it's where everyone gets on it's an artery yeah Vauxhall again not really that much further north

Victoria too busy for me thank you very much on a Monday morning yeah you don't need that. Warren Street, I could have pushed on the other way

through to Highbury, but I thought Warren Street, it's north of Oxford Circus, which is normally where everything goes on, so I'd be fine, and I was actually fine strapping a tube

straight up. Nice. It's only four minutes from Warren Street. Okay, I'll allow it. Nice little breather. Guess what I did when I got out of Highbury

and Islington Station? Stick, Beck. Got on a line bike, baby. Rode to the office. Just ride it down the tracks. Just a little breather. Ride it down the tracks of the tube.

Go again. Yeah, I should have. Like it was some kind of post-apocalyptic video game on the Amiga. Yeah, post those, you know, postal tubes,

what they're called. You know, those little kind of train systems that the postmen and postwomen use. What's happening? In the 70s, I think,

there was an underground... Pete Rory's brought me a cup of tea. Have you brought Pete a cup of tea, Rory? Can I have one of those drinks that shall not be mentioned that I left out there? It's out there. There you go. Could you not...

There's an underground postal train system. Thank you. Postal train system that is delicious. Sorry, not delicious. That's just your mind making you speak that is delicious you already gave me a drink and I said delicious

oh dear that's so good that is so good oh fuck so there's an underground postal system on the train there's an underground

postal system but you could have fucking popped a wheelie down yeah I love let me tell you about a limelight bike encounter I had at the weekend very quickly well do you want my quick one on the way down the Yeah. I love it. Let me tell you about a limerick bike encounter I had at the weekend.

Okay. Very quickly. Well, do you want my quick one on the way down to Holloway? You go for it. A man stops me. He goes, hey, brother. I went, oh, we've got Holloway in. Oh, shit, yeah.

You know what? I used to live there. It's Holloway, baby. He said that to everyone. He went, I've just been walking down the street thinking I'm really cold and need a jacket. You haven't got any jacket on. I went, I mean, I was huffing and puffing on a line bike

yeah I said I'm from the north did you yeah and he just let me go on my way he didn't need to stop me to do that more relaxing when you're on the bike isn't it

exactly because you can just get away I'm giving it the big licks I'm so chatty so I went for a run on Sunday morning and I thought to myself if I just run for half an hour that'll be a good bit of exercise

for the day yeah and I ran for half an hour that'll be a good bit of exercise for the day and I ran for half an hour and I was still about I don't know probably about another half an hour from running home obviously

because I was half an hour away and I thought I can't run back too tired so I sat on the bench watching the Sunday League football match in the field

in the park I thought I know what I'll do I'll join in I'll get a lot yeah they were like grandad fuck off I thought I know what I'll do I'll join in I'll get a lot yeah yeah they were like

grandad fuck off I thought I'll get I'll roll a line back home easy I've got my phone with me just scan it in off I go that's the beauty of it

found a line bike only because by this point I was in Dulwich Village very posh they don't probably like you dropping line bikes and leaving them there

so there wasn't many around in that big big girls' school. Or boys' school. Boys and girls' school. It started as a girls' school and then boys' school. For the record, I was nowhere near the girls' school. And your line bike.

And it was a Sunday. Carry a bag hanging off your handlebar. In my Mac. In your Mac. And I found one line bike available. And I thought, right, I'll go. I walked to that line bike. Walked over there.

Got about 50 metres away, see a young kid, he's lining up as well, and he's ahead of me. Right, okay. I would have liked to have said a bit of respect paid to elders, and him to say, would you like the line bike? Would you like the line bike? He was a posh kid, he'd obviously been impeccably brought up,

publicly school educated. I would have liked to have thought, if it went on form, he would have said, terribly terribly sorry old chap, you are clearly my elder, do you need to get anywhere quickly? You're welcome to take this line bike. I would have run around and kicked the spokes off. He just dumped his bag straight in the basket and jumped on it as quick as he could.

But he looked at me as if to say I know you wanted this line bike, but I just needed it more. And I like to think that I looked at him back and said to him with my look back to him it's good to see a younger generation

enjoying a line bike go and enjoy yourself son I've walked home I've got two stories from having a line bike about half an hour ago it's really fertile content content machines

like the spokes are the content that produce the content the chain is the chain the content content that produce the content the chain is the chain in the machine that produces the content it's quite tortured

this isn't it everything about this show is tortured but I yeah I put my I just I tootled up to my mate's house

to go and pick up my laptop and I left my coat in the front basket and I completely forgot oh shit it was only a load of dirty sandwiches somewhere left as well

so I'm a loser either way. Went up, came straight back down the lift 10 floors and then my bag's nowhere to be seen. I was like,

oh no. A, I've forgotten to stop it and B, I've forgotten to take my coat out and it's gone and someone's nicked it. Are you being serious?

Someone's nicked off with it. So now someone's still riding on your dollar right now probably. No, because as I riding on your dollar. Right now, probably. No, because as I was... I stopped it, basically. Yeah. As I was coming down, I was like, shit, I forgot to stop my ride.

I stopped the ride. And I stopped it. And it looks like the guy had got halfway across... Straight over the handlebars. He kind of got straight off across the way. And I was like, I wonder if that line back's the one I just had. And then I ran over and it wasn't. And my court was in the wonder if that line bikes the one I just had and then I ran over and it wasn't

it my coat was in the front so he didn't steal my coat but he stole away with 30 pence of my ride time you should have yeah always stop it because if you're a line prime

member you don't have to pay on locking fees but it said take a picture and I just took a picture of a lift that was it oh it doesn't doesn't doesn't it doesn't

use any fancy eye to figure out it's a bike or not I got a um a warning the other day for parking mine in a hurry. In a red zone. I was going to meet Sam Smith. You know Sam, obviously Sam. I was going to meet him for dinner. The singer, yeah?

No, not that Sam. It was the other Sam Smith who used to work with us and I was running late and so I just left it and it was like, sent me an email saying, oh, don't do that again. I'll give you a big fine and you might be banned from the app. I'm not going to be banned from the app

banned from the app not the amount why would they ban you from the app if you're using LimeBite if you're a Lime Prime if you're a Lime Prime member it's like I was in Pets at Home

a couple of years ago and I was just feeding Lola food out of the out of the little bins just handing it out so you're stealing she was eating it I wasn't eating

it's still in at that point it's still in the shop inside my dog at best you're at best you, at that point, it's still in the shop. At best, inside my dog. At best, you're right. Did you make that point?

Legal loophole. Well, I said, I was like, God, stop doing that. That's literally shoplifting. I was like, we're spending like,

nearly 150 quid today. That's not how shops are though, is it? No. They don't look at the big picture, do they? If I go buy a car for 30 grand, I don't get another cheaper car for free.

That's what I'm paying for this one. Well, I mean, you should do. At least you're aiding and abetting theft there. And the dog probably can't be held legally accountable. So it's going to fall to you, baby. That's a good point, actually. Speaking of dogs, because I don't know if people are

that interested in line bikes. Speaking of dogs, but they are interested in dogs. Are they? You've got a new dog. We do. It's so good. It's such good news. We've been to look at a dog. Press a button on that thing to make a fanfare sound. Because it's... Oh, shit, it's broken.

Anyway, I'll do one. Row, row, row. Nice, I like that. New dog. Tell us about it. Little dog. Little baby border terrier. How old?

It is a... Eight weeks? Six is a eight weeks? Six weeks? Do you get it at ten weeks or something like that? Yeah, we couldn't do a rescue for various reasons I won't go into now, but we had to have a pop-up, so we are now

going to be picking up a pop-up in about a week's time. It's so exciting. It's going to be brilliant, because my day was went to a car boot, more on that later, bought an Amsterdam email, more on that later, no doubt. Yeah, I don't understand that.

Ate yesterday's curry, went to go and play football, ran the line for half the line, then started right back for about 10 minutes in a 3-2 win. We'd play next to Hashtag United's youth side.

Oh, right. Yeah, right. Proper footballers. Yeah. Was this in South. All right. Yeah, right. Proper footballers. Was this in Southend? Close. Canary Island. Yeah, that's where they play, yeah. Down, and then we had,

and then I had, we went to look at a dog, which is great. Met a dog. Saw a horse. Struck the horse's nose. And then had a roast dinner. What a great day.

And then watched, a bit of telly. I watched that 100 TV show you were talking about. Physical 100, it's good, right? Physical 100. We all watched the first one

with the hanging off stuff. It's great. Yeah, I like that guy who's the ex-MMA judo guy who looks really cool. Oh, looks like Tony Stark.

Yes. Chung-Soon Hook, yeah, he's brilliant. He's brilliant. The show gets better and better. It starts, the way they plan the,

I think they call them quests. It's really clever. It's really interesting. But they're really sort of like these powerful people. And I don't know why they're charming because they're Korean, not British or American. But you just know there's something about seeing muscular people talking about muscular people. Going, oh, look at that.

Like, if they were doing it with an English accent, muscular people talking about muscular people going, oh, look at that. Like, if they were doing it with an English accent, you'd be like, get over yourself. Great stuff. Very enjoyable. The way they do it,

which is interesting, is that, so for those of you who haven't heard this show, Physical 100, it's on Netflix. I believe it's on Netflix in the US as well,

if you're listening from that fair country. And what they do is they've got the 100, they said 100 best athletes male and female in Korea and they put them against each other and see what they do is they've got the hundred they said 100 best athletes male and female in korea and they put them against each other and see who the best is and but the clever thing as he moved for the series is they start to get them into teams right and then they break the teams up and move the teams around and then go oh now you've got

to do something on your own and all the rest of it so like it's actually very um it's very um kind of manipulative with the viewer. Because you start cheering on for certain people. It's really good. It's great how you've already got your kind of favorites. And I would say that it started, you had to hang on to this thing. And I thought, well, that's going to just absolutely destroy all the big people, isn't it? Because they're too heavy.

Power to weight ratio. But it was just for a commendation or something. It was to get... What did they get? So it meant if you were one of the 50 that stayed on longest, you got to choose who your opponent was on the next one. Oh, nice. That is quite useful.

The best moment of that was when they literally just... Hundreds of them had to hang off a scaffold for as long as they could, and that was basically it. And you have never seen a happier man than the fucking... The gymnast. He was like, I could probably do 40 minutes. Yeah.

It was bad. Because he had a sort of technique where he was sort of like, he'd sort of push himself right over and he'd mash himself between two. And you could go any way, I think. Apart from feeding, I presume, feeding yourself through the thing and folding yourself in your midriff. I imagine that would be frowned upon. Yeah, I think it probably was.

You've got to use your arms. Yeah, I think it probably was. You've got to use your arms. Yeah, I think it probably was. And I think for me, after a couple of seconds, falling into that beautiful swimming pool looked quite nice. It looked nice and warm, didn't it? I only don't like that German-Korean man. Oh, Dustin Nippert. Dustin Nippert.

The baseball guy. No, no, no, no, no. Oh, the other guy. Oh, the other guy. Yeah, the German bloke who's a bit of an influencer kind of bloke. It's absolutely accurate to say that I could do that for less than a second. No, you couldn't.

Yes, you could. No, you couldn't. What? You could do it for longer than that. Anyway. Jam your arms over. Physical 100 is very good. It's worth...

After a while, I'd be worried that if I'm hanging on for too long, I might damage my arm. I'll pull my arm out and I might not be able to continue with the... Well, no spoilers, but injuries do become a factor. Do they? Later in the series, later in the run.

Peter, before we go for a break, I want to applaud and thank our friend Al. Hi, Al. Who put this... He put this story in our bloody inbox. In our Twitter box. I'm just going to read it to you. Okay. A 2,000-year-old dildo found at Roman Fort in Northumberland in 1992.

It's been reassessed by archaeologists. They thought it was a darning tool. They now are absolutely convinced it's a Roman sex toy. Yeah, and it was found under your mum's bed. Ha ha. And it could be actually because your mum is 2,000 years old. What do you think about that, Peter? I don't know. Let's have

a look at it. Let's have a look at the little chap. So, archaeologists believe they may have found the only life-sized Roman dildo known discovered in a ditch in what were the farthest northest fringes of the Empire. If it was not used as a sexual implement... I'll eat my dildo,

he says, a scientist. Then the 2,000-year-old object may have been an erect penis-shaped pestle. Oh, so it's like a kind of like when you go on to Torremolinos, you get like a little bottle opener and it's the shape of a penis.

Yeah. They were making basically a pestle that looked like a wanger. Good news for those of us who can never remember which one's a pestle and which one's the shape of a penis. Yeah. They were making basically a pestle that looked like a wanger. Good news for those of us who can never remember which one's a pestle and which one's the mortar. Now I'll always know.

Or it could have been a feature of a statue that people touched for good luck. I'd like to think it's a dildo, personally. It looks like the end of a banister and I'm very... It was found in Northumberland in 1992. It's good.

I mean, that bit isn at the end of a banister what are you talking about it's like a cock no it looks like the end of a you know if you turn that cock around and the cock's pointing down if there's like a

there's a ball on the top that would make a banister wouldn't it yeah I see what you're saying yeah what does your what does your house look like

what does my house how is your house by the way it's fine everything's tickety-boo I've got a real problem with green algae kind of growth on my back patio. I'm going to have to sort of... I've used some kind of chemicals to get rid of some of it.

I just need to paint the bum. Green growth on your back patio? Green growth on my back patio. I'm getting on that edge. It sounds like it. When I was in Pompeii, you weren't there because you were too hungover. I went later. I'm still there.

Yeah, you did actually, yeah. It's gotten better because more of it's been revealed. You texted saying, you're not coming to Pompeii because you've got a hangover and it's not going to go anywhere so you've got another time.

I didn't, I just couldn't get to sleep. I don't know, I had jet lag for the one hour difference. Yeah, right. Two hour difference. Well, we all know why you couldn't get to sleep. And on one of the bits...

You make that sound like it's drug related. No. You made that sound like it's drug related no you made that sound drug related espresso martinis yeah and red vodka red balls why do I do that to myself

and now before you know it you're wearing a heart monitor and you're labelled a prat how is your heart monitor I don't know it's still there they gave me it on I wasn't very well

it's having palpitations everyone has palpitations I understand that it's completely normal, but they don't usually pass out after one of them. So,

during the ramble, going quiet after the ramble. There's no joke to this. Sorry Marcus, I've got to go home, I'm not feeling very well. There's no joke to this,

but I mean, for those of us who were terrified about you almost drowning, we're also equally terrified to hear about this. Maybe I just need to live in the sky.

I've tried sea, I've tried land, can't do either thing, so. Yeah. What other elements? You could live in, sleep now in the fire, as've tried sea, I've tried land, can't do either thing, so. Yeah. What other elements? You could sleep now in the fire. Peter looks so much better

now he lives in the fire. Yeah. So more portable. Can I just tell a quick story about this heart monitor? Because I wasn't there when you had the heart problem. You went to the doctor.

I don't think I have a heart problem, I'm just trying to figure out what it is. The cardiologist, the person in, I tried to go to the doctor. Don't take it personally. Wouldn't let me go.

I'm just, I'm just, I would usually just go to a doctor and he'd sort it out or she'd sort it out. But then I went, but I couldn't see the doctor. They said,

it's a heart. Go and see the emergency room. So I had to sit in triage for so many hours. And then they referred me to a cardiologist. Right. And then I told you where to go

and you didn't, and you refused to. Yeah, but it was... I tried rigging them, but they didn't have anything from later on. And my heart could have just stopped. That is true, actually. Literally every second counted.

Exactly. Let me tell the story just very briefly. It's like Jason Statham's film Crank. I had to jerk off or something. Did you have to jerk? Didn't this heartbeat have to stay over a certain amount? Yeah, exactly. That's a really good idea for a film, by the way. It's really good, isn't it? I haven't seen it yeah exactly that's a really good idea for a film by the way

it's really good isn't it I haven't seen it but it's a really good idea for a film so Pete's in his very own version of Crank if you like and I heard this story

that you had this problem and you had to go home and you were getting stuff sorted out so I checked on how you were and you said you were okay and you were getting this heart monitor

fast forward 48 hours I checked on you again and you were taking apart the heart monitor while it was attached to your chest. And I said to you, you shouldn't be doing that. I was looking in the back of it, see where the batteries went. And I thought to myself, actually, do you know who I blame? I blame the doctor for giving you that,

because you can't change the nature of a man. You can't change the essence of a man. The thing is, I've got a, what was I going to say? I've got a, I've covered it in black pen because you've got to take it I'm appetite by the look of it yeah well you've got well that was just falling off

but you've got to take the you've got to take it up and put it back on again put these little kind of you know those little pressed up things the electrodes effectively you've got to put it on your skin

and I and I couldn't get it oh god oh god oh shit that is a problem that is an issue don't keep pulling it apart

it's a heart monitor for a reason it's never done that before now put it back put it back alright the readings they're going to get are going to be unhelpful you're not going to be

you're going to be back where you started aren't you you're going to be back where you started I've never done that but it's just two little two little batteries

two little babbers oh it's perfect so you're committing to the Lupita cause. So the batteries found inside my heart monitor were just little, what do you call them, ear things. Hearing aids. Hearing aid batteries, yeah, little bits. We both had heart monitors now.

Yours seemed sexier than mine. Mine, was yours like that? No. It was smaller, wasn't it? Yeah. It was better, wasn't it? But not as small as I wanted it to be, but it was smaller. And it was horrific taking it off

because I didn't shave my chest before they put it on. So it was basically like seeing a 40-year-old virgin. Yeah. Although the only difference being I was 42. Don't get old, guys.

No. You worry about your heart. It absolutely fucking sucks is what it does. Anyway, let's have a quick break. But we're fine. We're broadly fine. Yeah, we'll be okay.

We'll probably make it to the end of this show at least. Let's have a quick break. When we come back, we'll do a couple more bits. We'll also do people's batteries as well. So that's something

to look forward to. We're back with the Luke and Pete show and as revealed, inside my heart monitor, just some normal commoner garden batteries. Yeah.

So there we go. You said hearing aid batteries. Yeah, hearing aid batteries. Yeah, commoner garden ones. I thought, are they the same as a watch battery? Yes, yes, I believe they are. Just a little larger. Okay, cool. Right, yeah, commoner garden ones. Are they the same as a watch battery? Yes,

yes, I believe they are. Just a little larger. Okay, cool. Right,

okay, batteries, let's do it. Yeah, alright. Hello to Richard, he's come in

with a pair of Tronics, which I believe was a Dr. Dre album. Hello, I may have a new player for you

from my torch, it's Tronic batteries, thank you, Richard. They're red. They're black. They're halfway down your back.

It's Richard's Tronic Batteries. That's nice. Get in there. You'd be delighted with that. A little song. Fucking excellent. Richard, they're not new players, I'm afraid. Piece of shit. They've been sent in six times previously to this.

The first time that Tronic was sent in was on the 3rd of November 2019, baby. Right. Richard's never allowed to listen again. Joe! I hope you enjoyed your song there, Richard. Found these in my granddaughter's musical book that's at least 10 years old.

Hopefully third time's the charm with some really corroded Diane Ware batteries. D-I-A-N W-A-I sounds like a soul singer Diane Ware they are incredibly corroded

it's left a terrible residue a rusty residue all over the instructions to said granddaughter's

musical book so yeah and we are the rusty residue of the podcast we are the rusty residue and Joe they are new players.

Congratulations to you. No one has sent in Dianne Way batteries before. So well done to you. Great spot. Great submission. We're very, very happy to have you on board.

It's on Dianne Way of life. Yeah. That's your own. Chris from Delaware has come in with an email that says, hello Luke and Pete. Is it?

Could it be? Is this a new player in the game? On opening my recently acquired secondhand Electro Harmonix guitar pedal, a Micro Q-Tron for those curious, I was greeted with this. Electro Harmonix, super heavy duty 9-volt battery.

How delightful that these guitar pedals come with a house brand battery. Some research identifies the picture, not as retired 80s era wrestler as the image would lead us to believe, but as Mike Matthews, the founder of Electro Harmonix. The picture is hilarious.

Amazing. He simply looks like Jimmy Savile. He simply does look like Jimmy Savile. He looks like, he looks like he's kind of like, it doesn't help the not looking like an 80s wrestler look or even 70s

wrestler look he's wearing a cut-off vest he's wearing a cut-off vest he's kind of doing i like the fact that you've got your own company making yeah electronic stuff and you're gonna put a picture of yourself on the batteries that's a nice flex that is a nice flex literally in this case so micro so electro harmonics super heavy duty enough, that is the third time they've been sent in. Each of the last two were also 9 volts, as this one is. So it's not a new player, Chris, I'm afraid. But it's very pleasing to hear that some guitar pedals do in fact include a battery,

because no guitar pedal I've ever had has included one. Always 9 volters, aren't they? Yeah. That picture, that picture of the, the lead of Harmonix on a related tack

kind of looks a little bit like Peter Steele. Who's that? From Type O Negative. Let me have a little Google. I don't really know Peter, I don't really know Type O Negative. He was a very,

I think he was a very tall man. Oh yeah, it does look like him, he was, he's a tank. He was absolutely huge, he was a big muscle man and he was in, he's dead now, isn't he? Yeah, I think, I think, didn't he get, didn't he do a very tall man. Oh yeah, it does look like him. He's a tank. He was absolutely huge. He was a big muscle man. He's dead now, isn't he?

Yeah. Didn't he do a naked shoot in Playgirl? Yeah, he did, yeah. And then he found out that a lot of the main people who bought Playgirl was gay men, and it really upset him. Surely it doesn't make any difference to him, does it? I mean... It shouldn't do, anyway.

Send your letter to the care of the male ego. Yeah, he's dead. He's dead now. Yeah, it's fine. So the guitar pedals, I mean, this will be something of interest to you and to the listenership. The guitar pedals I use are the Rat,

which doesn't come with a battery included, but it's a classic pedal. The Rat. Yeah, and a Joyo analog chorus pedal, which also didn't come with a battery. What's wrong with those kind of ones that add all the effects? They were always the best, weren't they? Those digital...

Stompbox. Those kind of like big ones. Stompboxes are okay as far as like, if you only play that once a month, they're fine. They don't last very long, though, and every sound in them sounds the same. Yeah, Zoom. I went through a few Zooms.

Oh, Zoom pads. Yeah, they're good. People who DJ back in the 90s used those Zoom pads. They make this sound. Oh, I mean, they did everything, mate. If you know how to use them. All the noises. Oh, keep going.

Awooka. Awooka. Okay, so there you go. That's nice. You sound a bit like the start of... What song is that? You always do that fucking song, that fucking weird emo song that you like.

What weird emo song that I like? Oh, what the fuck is it called? Yeah, how many Eps are we in? And we finally stumped Luke Moore. Oh, I'll come back to you. He's asking me. He's asking me. Oh, just every week these days.

It's like some weird song, Sound of the Wickedness or something weird song, Sound of the Wickedness or something like that. Sound of the Wickedness. You always just say it. It's like some weird guy shouting it at the beginning. Sound of the Wickedness.

Oh, I can't remember what it is. It's annoying me. That sounds wonderful. Anyway, let me rescue this. I love the Sound of the Wickedness. Let me rescue... No, Down with the Sickness. That's it.

That's not emo, is it? What is it? Yeah, exactly. What is it? What song is it? Who sings it? Oh, fuck. Who is it? What song is it? Who sings it? Oh, fuck. Who sung that?

Oh, with a sickness. It's Disturbed, isn't it? Yes. Yeah, Disturbed. What kind of music would you call that, then? A new metal, innit? Oh, with a sickness. Oh, with a sickness.

Yeah. Fucking terrible. Anyway, hello at lukeandpeach.com is the email if you want to send your battery submissions in. We had one new player this week. Always nice to see. Fucking terrible. Anyway, hello at lukeandpetech.com is the email if you want to send your battery submissions in. We had one new player this week. Always nice to see. Always pleasing. But if you want to send a normal email in as well,

you're welcome to. We've had one here from our friend Oz. And Pete, this is a great email. I'm going to read it out to you. I don't know if you've already seen it, but I'm going to read it out to you anyway. Hey, guys. I emailed back a couple of years ago

saying how I listened to the show while going to school for visual effects. So he's studying visual effects at school. Well, I can now proudly say I was listening to the show while I worked doing visual effects on The Last of Us. Yes! Mondays and Thursdays are always made better by your nonsense and batteries chat.

Glad Peter's okay and the bigger boys are sitting at your place, Luke. Cheers for the laughs. We'll update you on any other big projects you're a small part of, Oz. Could you make one of the little mushroom things resemble an L and a P? That'd be great.

You do sometimes see these kind of little Easter eggs and stuff because visual effects guys have done this and that. Yeah, so season two is the last of us, Austin. Presumably your skills

are good enough to be retained for season two. Let's not count our chicken. But if they are are because I think the visual effects look amazing you've got to do a Luke and Pete show

not in there the thing about visual effects is you can create I mean there could be a million things he works on he could be working

on I looked him up on IMDB mate powder I looked him up explosions he could be just light

he could be doing all kinds of things rather than actually modelling but like the people who kind of like model the characters and stuff He could be just light. He could be doing all kinds of things rather than actually modeling. But the people who kind of model the characters and stuff, they're already one part of the puzzle, and then they'll give it to somebody to light and to animate and stuff like that.

And you might have the example of a mate who worked on visual effects for a film. He made a beautiful, really accurate Arnold Schwarzenegger Terminator model, right? He hands it off. Somebody else lights it, somebody else animates it, somebody else composites it into the scene.

And if they do their job incorrectly, the model looks shite. Yeah, okay. You know what I mean? Because it's lit poorly. Yeah, okay. And I looked at Oz and he also worked

he also worked on Star Trek Strange New Worlds which the wife I have access to is absolutely obsessed with she's very excited it's good stuff so I like to think that the brain spores

that is the Luke B. Shaw has helped create visual spores that repeat and infect in The Last of Us I thought the most recent Last of Us

at Time Recording was amazing as well. I've only done the one with the deaf boy. That is the one. I thought there was the next one,

isn't there? When does it come out? What does it come out? Oh, it came out yesterday. There's a new one that came out yesterday. Okay, not seen that one. But the deaf boy one

is the one I'm talking about. Yeah, it's good, that one. Brilliant. Yeah, brilliant. Brutal. I don't remember that in the game. I don't remember anything. What's the point of me having all these experiences? I'm talking about yeah it's good that one brilliant yeah brilliant brutal I don't remember that in the game I don't remember anything

what's the point of me having all these experiences I'm just going to forget them every film I've ever watched I've just forgotten apart from films I've seen more than once which is like

The Jerk Virgin Suicides Fight Club that's all I got pathetic it's a nice way to be because you're never going to be bored

that's a good point yeah but no I refuse to watch a film twice what did you think about episode 3 did it make you cry big boy tears good we spoke about it didn't we like yeah it was um what's up we didn't talk about on here oh did we i can't remember you

sent me a mocked up what's up with you crying i saw it um because in the in the in the game it's quite hard to miss their relationship a little bit sorry it's quite easy to miss their relationship it's not it's not it's not it's not overtly no exactly put a round down your throat yeah bloody liberals but yeah go broke mate that's what I always say I remember sort of saying that it was

at the time the last of us I think it was it was a really affecting interesting image of a relationship because it was so understated

and normal and sad it was very affecting I can't believe all the trolls to this show, of which we have a few. All the trolls. I've never come up with

the Woken Pete show yet. The Walken Pete show. It would work, wouldn't it? Because I'm the walkers, that's why. The Woken Bleat show. Bleat show, yeah. Bleating on.

Did you see this? There's another Luke and Pete show kicking around. Yeah, I saw you linked it to a YouTube video. Funny that. Are they good or not?

They seem like nice lads. I don't know. Slag them off. I can't remember what it's actually got. I think it's all the Luke and Pete having an argument or something. It was something like that. Is the Luke and Pete something or something?

Is that our fault? What do you mean? That's their names, so I mean, what can we do? That's true. Interesting they've gone for Luke first as well, because you kicked off about that for a few months, I remember.

Arguing that you were the bigger personality, which I agree with, but it's alphabetical yes good point on that note we'll do another one on Monday thank you very much for listening to this Thursday we hope you've enjoyed it

we will of course be back as I've said the other side of this weekend coming up are you going to open a big box oh yeah we are actually our friend Noah sent us some more stuff

so that's exciting we might even have some more batteries for the battery daddy that he sent us too so that's also really exciting have a lovely weekend you've the battery daddy that he sent us too so that's also really exciting have a lovely weekend
