It's Thursday
and welcome to the Luke and Pete show
I'm Pete Donaldson
I am once again joined by Mr. Luke Moore
and we're doing the show for you guys
completely free at Point of Source
enjoy us
throw us in the bin
we don't much care
but do give us a five star review on iTunes
it's very helpful
imagine how much we'd genuinely be able to charge for this not exactly i don't know there'll be many punters
queuing up but listen we had a really really busy week of downloads this uh last week i checked
earlier i was bloody surprised unbelievable thank you so much for everyone listening um
peter say for example um someone had listened to monday's episode and then told a few of their friends
and a few of their friends were listening
for the first time today.
They just thought, you know what?
We'll listen to the most recent one.
What have you got to tell them?
What do you mean?
I mean, are they coming in for particular reasons?
No, I just started listening.
The Olympics chat?
What can I expect?
What have you got to tell them?
Are you going to welcome them along, presumably?
Then you're going to give them a little bit of a 101 on what to expect.
Bought a gaming desk.
Oh, good.
Carry on.
Because I need a slightly smaller desk.
And it turns out you cannot buy a video gaming desk
that doesn't look like you are 15.
It doesn't have...
It all has neon lights on it.
It has integrated mouse pads. What is a video gaming desk? It has cup 15. It doesn't have... It all has neon lights on it. It has integrated mouse pads.
What is a video game in there?
As cup holders.
I don't know.
I just went...
I just want a desk that's simple,
that will hold my computer.
And unless you want those kind of two-tier jobs
and you want something that will fit
like quite a chunky gaming...
It's my own fault for having a gaming chair
and this has dictated all my choices afterwards.
Yeah,
I've bought
an affordable
yet rather gaudy,
I never say that word,
gaudy,
gaudy
gaming desk.
It's quite disgusting.
So,
once my studio's finished,
I'll give you a tour
and we can put
some of these videos out
because right now,
as you can see, Luke,
it looks fucking disgusting.
Yeah,
hopefully you can see,
you'll be able to see my new gaming desk.
It looks like you're going through puberty.
What do you mean?
Just generally.
I've come to some sort of agreement with myself that...
I've come to some sort of agreement at the moment
where if I prepare my hair in a certain way,
I can get away with just having the long locks out
rather than wearing a ponytail.
I did it over the weekend.
I was like, you know what?
You look a little bit like Noel Edmonds
but I reckon you can rock this one.
I mean, if you're interested
and I'm sure you're not
and I'm sure you'll file this piece of advice
wherever you file every other piece of advice
I've ever given you since we've known each other
which is fine.
I think you look better without the ponytail or bun.
Right, okay.
So I think I agree on that point you've just made.
I agree with you.
It just takes a lot of combing and a lot of hair drying.
The whole kind of washing and all that business,
it's a little bit stressful, a little bit too much.
But I did it over the weekend.
I was like, you know what?
I might stick with this.
I might have a crack at just having my hair long.
So,
interestingly enough,
I feel like the age
of experimentation
on appearance
for me
is kind of over now.
So...
I completely agree.
The reason I feel it that way
is because I can remember
about three or four years ago,
maybe a bit longer actually,
I put on quite a lot of weight
and I was quite mortified
about it at the time. So I went on this, I've just embarked on this kind of fitness thing put on quite a lot of weight i was quite mortified about
it at the time so i went on this i've just embarked on this kind of fitness thing and just
lost a lot lost a load of it right and then because of covid i put on quite a bit more weight not that
much not not terrible or anything but like enough that i would notice and the thing that surprised
me now i'm in my 41st year was i didn't actually care like you know you know that you can
tell yourself you don't care or that you can kind of pretend that you do care about something but
there's always like as i've had told to me before there's like a logical reaction to something
whatever it may be in your life and there's an emotional reaction to something and some people's
emotional reactions are a lot stronger than others for certain things but emotional reactions you
can't really you can't really change it, right?
So you can understand that you can feel emotion about something, but you can't really control it, right?
Most people can't control the very basic emotion to how they react to something.
And I genuinely didn't care.
Like before, I massively cared and now I really don't.
And so to me, with the whole long hair thing, or whether that be trying out a different look,
with the exception of formal wear,
which I am still quite passionate about,
I want to look...
Big formal occasions, I kind of want to look my best.
Other than that, I know it sounds pathetic, I know,
but I genuinely don't give a shit.
I just don't care.
I think I...
You know when people have a bit of a giggle behind their hands
when they see, I don't know, an older man with a much younger lady
or an old man driving a penis substitute kind of car.
Bezos.
Yeah, or Bezos flying to the moon.
In a penis.
It did look like it.
It wasn't the moon, by the way.
It was nowhere near as impressive as that.
Okay, all right.
It was space. I don't know. Apparently not necessarily as that. All right, okay. All right, it was space.
I don't know.
Apparently not necessarily even space.
Carry on, anyway.
Oh, really?
It's debated.
Did they keep moving the limits?
Yeah, that'd be brilliant if they did.
Love it.
This is how we get rid of him and Branson.
We just keep on pulling it further out and further out.
This is the Milky Way, man.
Come on.
Speaking of, you have got a bit of Branson about you, actually.
Yeah, I'd take that.
But I mean, like you said about Branson,
he's not changed his haircut since the 70s.
But we giggle at like older men who, you know,
they don't seem to realise what they look like.
They look like the stereotype.
They look like men who are trying to sort of
maintain a certain look for too long.
But you do get to a certain age and you sort of go,
even if I fuck about, I don't really care
because I'm not in the market to impress any young people or anyone, really.
I'm enjoying this.
So you think the mistake...
And I wish I had that confidence when I was young
because I would dress stupidly, but I'd always couch it in,
I would never go too far.
Do you know what I mean?
Imagine if I'd had this confidence when I was 22.
Imagine how big my trouser would be.
So there's a misconception that people think
that older men are doing that to try and be relevant
or try and impress people,
but actually just doing it because they don't give a shit
and they're doing what they want.
I think so.
I think you're probably right, actually.
I think so.
Yeah, it's a worrying uh realization but it's and and this can only go badly for me
because you because look at me but it's it's it's uh yeah i just think you just get to a certain
point you sort of go i don't really care i've got i've done everything i've done and i'm going to
do everything i'm going to do and you know none of this is going to as long as you're not problematic
as long as you're not hurting anyone.
Yeah, I agree.
And I think there's also a lot to be said
for the idea, I think, as well,
over and above what you're saying there, Pete,
which I agree with,
that it's actually more tragic
to try and dress really young and be cool still
than it is just to do your thing, right?
Yes, yeah, I guess so.
I mean, look, and that is why I'm leaving
the football ramble. I'm, look, and that is why I'm leaving the football realm
and I'm just going to write about video games.
Which I've always loved and have always been my first.
Which I've always loved, always been my first love.
Can I just say, you didn't have a problem with any of that
until video games were brought in.
You kept fucking quiet.
He stepped on my fucking tongue.
A lot of people listening aren't going to give a shit
about what we're talking about here or even get it.
But trust me, right, Pete, you did not care about any of that
until the two video games came in.
You sent a WhatsApp saying,
oh, right, it's fucking video games now, is it?
And for those of you who do know what we're talking about,
welcome in.
For those who don't, you're probably going to work it out.
Pete's being mean
about other podcasters.
That's what he's doing.
Yeah.
Mean Pete.
That's me.
Why the fuck not?
Why the fuck not?
He's just doing
what he wants to do.
Yeah, where were we?
On Monday we said,
by the way,
after the break,
I want you to do
battery rounds this week.
Yes, okay.
That's after the break.
But for the meantime,
we promised everyone
on Monday
we'd talk about Olympics.
And I want to know,
we need to put a kind of Luke and Pete show spin on this.
I want to, because we know nothing.
So I want to know if, for example,
so say you're in your prime.
You mentioned earlier about being 22.
So say you're a 22 and someone,
I don't know, God came down and said,
you have to compete and qualify fairly for an Olympic event
by the time you're 40 or I am going to kill you, right?
And you have to start now.
And I'm going to kill you and everything you hold dear.
Every person you like I'm going to kill.
And I'm going to kill you last, unless
you compete legitimately and fairly
in an Olympic event
by the time you hit your 40th birthday
and you've basically got no
choice but to start work straight away.
You're 22, what do you go for?
I'd be asking for the New Testament
version of that.
Okay.
Does he sound proper naughty?
Then he would say
do do that
but it's kind of
fine if you don't
but the messages
are a bit meh
yeah pretty much
just say sorry
before you die
I'd be fucked
because skateboarders
are like
that's 8 years
of skateboarding
didn't somebody
who won a gold
they were like
12 or 13
or something crazy like that?
It's insane.
The ping pong girl from Iran, I think.
She's 13.
Let me stop you now.
She's not knocked out.
She's incredible.
There's no way you'll get in this skateboarding or ping pong.
They're both, you have to be fucking so good at it.
But I interviewed the guy who did table tennis for Britain in London 2012.
And I went down there and interviewed the geezer.
I think his name was
Paul Drinkwater maybe.
Right.
I think he came rank last.
Right.
Out of the whole thing.
And he was by far
one of the most impressive
skilled people I've ever
seen at anything.
Right.
That is a dot on the horizon
to you ping pong.
Forget that.
You ain't doing that.
Look, would it be fair to say anything I say?
Archery.
What about archery?
Shooting.
Archers are really skilled.
Yeah, but I'm just saying you've got 18 years to go here.
It doesn't matter if you get old at archery, does it?
Yeah, but what if I'm really good at ping pong?
What if I get really good?
You might as well be saying you want to do the fucking marathon.
You're not going to win fucking ping.
So you've got to qualify.
What I'm saying is
you have to qualify legitimately.
So you essentially have to win loads of stuff
to get to that point.
Right, right.
Well, you do,
because otherwise you're not going to qualify.
I would just put myself...
Every night I go to bed
and I put myself in, like, a mould.
You know, like a jelly mould.
You know, like a banana mould.
There's cases you put a banana in, right?
And that would make my body curly, right?
Naturally sort of aerodynamic, so that when I fell through,
if I was doing the diving, I could just sort of roll off the board,
and my body would naturally, because of the wind resistance,
curl into some interesting shapes and then drop gracefully into the pool.
So I wouldn't even need to work that hard.
I could just pop myself in a little jelly mould every day.
And then I'd be like a little tortellini or something.
It's not that well thought through.
You've had three days thinking about this.
I think you've got to go.
Look, if I bring up now, list of Olympic event.
Right.
Okay.
You're not going to be a footballer. That's not happening. Right. I mean, this is Olympic event. Right. Okay. You're not going to be a footballer.
That's not happening.
Right.
I mean, this is Olympic football.
So you can have all...
It's objectively easier,
but it's still way out of our depth.
Yeah.
It's a big team, isn't it?
I'd bloody love to see you do boxing.
Could you maybe do...
The problem is the qualification.
So the original angle I was going to go for was,
what about a sport that genuinely isn't popular in Britain?
So, for example, handball.
No-one plays handball.
Has anyone ever met anyone who plays handball?
So you would have to...
Right, OK, so you would pick an unpopular sport that people...
But then you've got to qualify.
That's the problem.
Yeah, that's the thing.
Well, look, we had... We were going to do a show last year at the Olympics people um that yeah but then you've got to qualify that's the problem yeah that's like well look we
we had we were going to do a show um last year at the olympics with a gymnast um he didn't make the
cut like and so like we were in conversation with him for quite a while he was in stacks or stakhanov
then uh offices um and he you know he was focused for the last four years of his life on something
that was moved a year later and also
he didn't manage to qualify so it's just like like to have your entire life focused on one thing
yeah as and and it's not even a team sport it's just you know i guess it is a team sport but
there are very few spots on there um for each for each side and uh yeah it did make it like
absolutely crushing.
I don't know what kind of headspace you could be in if you didn't make the cut and you worked so bloody hard.
Isn't it so mad how at the very extreme,
so say for example for a sprinter,
presumably I think I'm right in saying the Olympic gold
would be the absolute pinnacle.
So they would probably, a lot of them at least,
would pride that over say a world championship gold.
And it's every four years, as you say.
In this case, it's been five years, obviously.
You are essentially bringing down years and years, literally,
of training for one 10-second moment, you know,
that you've got to execute perfectly.
That's worse than any other sport, surely.
That's worse than any other competitive, surely. That's worse than any
other competitive
sport. Like football's 90 minutes.
I think someone worked out that
across the entirety
of his career, Usain Bolt
only competitively
raced at the highest level in total for like
under 20 minutes.
That makes sense. It's mad, isn't it?
It's mad to think about.
20 minutes of your life
and that's the thing
that defines you.
And certainly athletics
and like,
it's not a well-paid sport
unless you're at the very top
and you can get
as many sponsorships in.
Oh yeah,
when you're at
Usain Bolt's level,
like you get paid
just to turn up
because it makes the event
so much bigger.
I'm pretty sure
Tiger Woods was being paid. So I know you get
prize money for winning
golf tournaments and stuff and getting places.
But I'm fairly certain Tiger Woods
was being paid just to turn up.
Because it made such a big difference.
That's why.
And this doesn't happen so much now, but it used to
happen. That's why
you would sometimes find professional golfers, say
20 years ago complaining
that tiger woods was getting all the attention tiger was this and tiger was that and it's like
are you being fucking serious he completely i can floated the entire sport the fact you're getting
paid the golfers can now be millionaires without ever winning an event and a massive part that's
because of tiger woods and what he did for the sport and it's a lot better now and some of it was kind of
tinged with a little bit of racism as well
but it's a lot
better now but he was
almost like a one man, well he was a one man industry
the amount of sponsors
the amount of interest, the amount of stuff in golf
a lot of it is essentially just down to
Tiger Woods and so I imagine with someone
like Usain Bolt, what he's done for
athletics generally
has been just seismic.
Like the amount of, you know what it's like,
you always say this about different stuff,
but similar principle.
Things only really happen when like big people,
big companies want to get involved
and invest their money and lead
and try and lead the way, right?
And it would be the same principle in this case as well.
Yeah, definitely.
And I think some people
have been very good at their at their sport but you need that little bit of charisma as well would
that be fair to say in in in athletics because you need to capture the imagination of the people you
need to capture the imagination of uh of sponsors and that's how you know that that's how the world
works it's sad but that that's that you need that little bit more yeah you need that little bit one
of the best sports example one of the best examples in sport for that would be boxing, right?
So you get boxers who are amazing, who are undefeated,
but they can't put the crowd because they just don't cross over.
Then you'll get boxers who, say, for example, Ricky Hatton,
who is brilliant.
I mean, he only really lost to two all-time greats,
but he probably at that that time, wasn't
the very best in the world, but he was certainly
one of the best. He's a world champion, multiple world
champion, etc. So he's very, very good.
He would take 40,000
people to a fight in Vegas.
He would sell out
with people from Manchester at a
fight in Vegas, because people just loved him
so much. He had that charisma because a lot of the
time his fights were dramatic and he'd
sometimes get in trouble
and he'd get hurt and he'd bounce back and
this whole narrative around him as a boxer
was so powerful
all thrown up
thrown in with his charisma that it made him
just a massive draw and not all boxers
are like that. So you're right, the charisma thing is a really
big part of it.
It's a large part
of the reason
why everyone
loves
all over the world
loves Maradona
for example
like
he's just
he's able to cross over
with just normal folk
and people just
absolutely love him
so I've got that
going for me
so I reckon yeah
you're definitely
ping pong mate
definitely
ping pong
yeah
Petey's little
ping pong party
I'd enjoy that I'd enjoy that
I'd enjoy that immensely
shall we take a short break
and come back with some
Barry Branson's memos
and stuff
yeah let's do it
I'll see you in a minute
join me
Jaguar
the host of BBC
Introducing Dance
on Radio 1
for my brand new podcast
Utopia Talks
it's a reactive platform
to discuss issues
that my generation
care about in dance music
culture and the wider world.
I'll be talking to some of the
biggest names in dance music, including
people like Heidi.
The lineups do not need to be
99% male-driven.
There's all these interesting new
producers and women that are coming through.
You know, all sorts. It's like
women are speaking out now.
And the sensational Bless Madonna. It's like women are speaking out now. And the sensational Blas Madonna.
I feel like literally my entire life has led up to this.
This is the first event we've had like this, not just in the UK,
but really in the Western hemisphere.
And to be able to be here with all of these people who are so happy
is just absolutely the biggest, highest joy of my life.
As well as having the meaty conversations I often have with friends
that I'd love you to join in with.
There's so much new energy coming out of the pandemic
and there's so many new nights and festivals
and everyone's really pushing for this new structure
where people genuinely don't feel anxious about coming to a club night
because of the way they look the way
they dress it's more about everyone in to me utopia is a perfect moment it's togetherness
it's the future i want to live in a more inclusive equal world and i hope this podcast will build a
community and help create change subscribe now on spotify Podcasts or wherever you like to get your podcasts.

We're back with
Luke Peachaw Part 2 on a Thursday.
We've got
some battery brands on the go,
on the boil, Luke.
Will Blackman emailed in with Duracells.
Don't be silly.
Did he really?
He did, yeah.
Excellent.
A nine volt Duracell.
My favourite Duracell, though, to be fair.
Love a nine volter.
They're a different shape.
They're just fun.
Ryan B has sent in some Pair Deer Industrial.
Not a new player.
Do you want me to search the old...
I've just done it for you, mate.
...Archives?
Okay, lovely.
First time we saw the Pear Deers was in November 2018.
That's a no from us.
Oh, a real, really early.
Lovely old job.
John Cassidy sent in some GM cells.
Lukey Moore, have we got GM cells?
Are you putting GM cells in inverted commas?
I don't remember seeing them,
and a search earlier brought up no result,
so I think I'm going to give them the nod.
Oh, there you go.
They're getting in.
They're coming in the Battery Hall of Fame.
Well done, John Cassidy.
Rich Cracknell has sent in some Nangrand extra heavy duty.
Now, I think we've had Nangrand before,
but possibly not. We've had Nangrand. We've had Nangrand Extra Heavy Duty. Now, I think we've had Nangrand before, but possibly not.
We've had Nangrand.
We've had Nangrand.
Believe it or not,
we had Nangrands on December 6th, 2017.
Wow, really early.
When did we start?
That was the same year we started.
It was, so we got them in pretty short order.
So I'm afraid that, Rich Cracknell,
you are not a new player entering the game,
but a special mention for Will for sending in Duracell.
Did he do that ironically or did he mean that?
Well, imagine if we didn't ever have a Duracell.
Imagine if, because a lot of people sort of
self-effacingly kind of just sort of go over
and got Duracells in my remote control or whatever,
like, you know, seeing themselves off a little bit.
But imagine if no one had seriously sort of went,
I've got some Duracells in my remote.
Will, you're a bit behind the curve there because our friend Andrew Jones,
friend and listener Andrew Jones,
sent an email on November the 8th, 2019,
saying batteries are just normal Duracells,
but you've not had those before.
So he's ahead of the game.
Same thought process as you will,
but he's beating you to it, sadly, I'm sorry to say.
Yeah, less silly.
I enjoyed the way it was displayed in the email box.
Thank you, Will.
And well done for GSC, John Cassidy with his GM cells.
Should we submit those?
Yeah, let's do it.
All right, then.
We've got a message from Ruben I think I don't think we've had this one before
but you were talking about the Amazon shop
where you just walk in
pick up your um pick up whatever you want
and then just walk out
and it just basically debits your Amazon account
you mentioned how you were unsure
how the Amazon shops works
says Ruben Villapilay.
Basically, you have an app which you scan upon entry.
This is linked with your Amazon account and therefore your card.
There are hundreds of cameras all across the shop.
They detect whenever a product is removed, put back or put somewhere else.
It detects the product and its price and then it builds up a virtual list of all the products you've taken
and adds up the price when you leave the shop, open up the app and walk out of the door.
They'll detect that the app is open and take the total away from your card.
Hope this gave you both a somewhat better sense of this dystopian future
that's becoming a reality.
I think they should have just got one of those cardboard cutouts
of a policeman you see in Poundstretcher.
Good idea, actually. That would be foolproof.
That's more of a deterrent.
How do you feel about this?
Because what...
How do I feel about the cardboard policeman?
I'm dead set against him.
I think it makes your shop look cheap.
There's one in Wix.
I cannot fathom why they use it.
I didn't even know that was a thing.
I thought you were joking.
No, in like...
In more down...
If you...
You can tell you're in a town centre
that's not that moneyed and a bit rough
because every single shop will have those cardboard cutout policemen.
And I think it just makes the town look shit.
What's the point of it?
It makes your shop look shit.
It just says, hey, shoplifters, we've taken a picture of a policeman.
What does it say about me that I've never seen one of these before?
Am I only hanging out in
the royal spa towns?
I've never heard of this
before. Yeah, they're like kind of like
life-sized reproductions of policemen.
I just always think it looks really cheap and rubbish
and it basically says
we're going to prosecute you shoplifters
and there's probably a lot of you around because it's a
down-at-heel town. It doesn't make any sense because
every adult,
I would say,
in every developed nation on earth
knows what a policeman is and looks like.
So at no point am I sort of walking around a shop
vaguely aware of the concept of a police service
but not really sure what they do
or what they look like.
It's completely pointless.
You might as well say
it's basically a jazzed-up version
of one of those signs on the wall that says,
Smile, you're on CCTV, right?
Yeah, or when you are sometimes around Victoria Station,
you'll see a life-size representation of a builder,
and it'll say, like,
Please keep my daddy safe by not speeding, or something like that.
Or it'll be like, wear a hard hat hat or here's the defibrillator or whatever
but yeah
I never understand
why they do that
it just looks so shit
and it's
you know
if you're a shoplifter
you probably felt
the long arm of the law
before
so you probably don't care
you ever been caught
shoplifting Donny
no
I remember seeing
a lad who's dead now
in Superdrug
just
arm
at a right angle
just sweeping
as many Gillette rays
into his bag as possible
he went
alright lads
and then walked out
and he was
yeah he's dead now
but he
in an unrelated incident
he was the
no
I don't think he shaved himself
to death
I presume he sold them
on a block crack
house bolter
heroin
but yeah
exactly
so yeah
it's bad
don't like it
but Amazon
don't mind it
I do think
that's over
technifying
over technology
it's a technological
solution
to
probably be
you know
you could probably
make do with barcodes
but I think
I was listening to a podcast
and somebody
sort of said
about Amazon
they said like can they not just chill out the Amazon just cut like drones and
solutions that we didn't really need we've got all of the things that we need
you know delivery wise and stuff just calm down just have a yeah I think a lot
of those stories could come out about Amazon being futuristic are essentially
PR spins right so I'll one day drones are gonna
deliver to your garden and obviously that's not gonna happen but it means everyone's gonna
talk about amazon so that's why i do it right right oh they're gonna talk about that story
rather than uh workers pissing in bottles yeah so it's it's you know it's that yeah and i agree with
you in principle because i think to myself and this again might be the words of an old man and
you might people might be listening thinking oh come on granddad but the way i see it is this right shops have always had people
working in them right it's not a bad system is it someone gets a job no someone gets paid can
always be better i'm sure they can always be treated better and be paid better i worked in
a shop for many many years of my life so i get that you know but ultimately as a system i don't look at the world's problems and go that's
in the top 50 things that needs to be sorted out right if you've got amazon money right if you've
got like so much money that you literally even if you tried couldn't spend it in a thousand lifetimes
how are you thinking that's one of the things
that needs sorting out?
Because it's bigger than that.
Because at that point, the problem is bigger.
The problems you can now solve are bigger than that.
So why are we doing that?
It doesn't make any sense.
It makes people feel weird if they're over a certain age,
and I get that.
And again, it's solving a problem
that doesn't really need to be solved.
To me, there's things that are more important
than just endless efficiencies forever.
I can't remember what it said here,
but there's more to life than increasing its speed, right?
Just let people work in a shop if they want to,
is what I'm saying.
If you don't have those people working in a shop,
who's going to buy your shit?
If no one's got a job, no one can buy your shit, mate.
Yeah, exactly.
Don't worry about it.
There's no jobs for anyone now,
so it's super convenient,
but sadly,
no one's got any money,
so they can't buy anything.
It would just be podcasters now,
wouldn't it?
It's like when,
it's like,
oh, it certainly fucking feels that way.
It's,
it's,
yeah,
it's like when Republicans,
like,
will have, they won't, like, allow, like, stimulus payments,'t allow stimulus payments or the welfare state.
Every time you've given money to people who need it, it helps the economy.
It helps them spend the money.
So give them the money and they'll spend it on your shit.
Give them money for working in your shop and then they'll spend money in your shop.
Would you give everyone a million pounds?
You know what's cooler than a million pounds?
My time.
Yeah.
I'd give them my time.
I told you, doing your coat up when you got shorts on.
We established that before.
You would give everyone a million quid
and that would be that, right?
You know you can't just keep giving people money.
You don't realise, I understand your point,
but at the strong end of that, it's ruinous.
It's ruinous, right?
There has to be a debate about it, is what I'm saying.
Mate, I'll just go down the horses.
I'll just go down the races,
because I am really into gambling.
When I first started making podcasts with you,
if someone said to me in 2022, for example,
Pete's going to stop doing this with you
and he's going to have a completely new career,
what do you think it'll be? I think
professional gambler would be at the bottom.
Actually, right at the very
bottom. Like, under
professional gigolo,
it would be so far down the bottom.
Why do we both go for that at the same time? Fuck you,
Moa. I don't need your low
self-esteem. I don't need my low self-esteem
compounded by your insults
that's what this show is
isn't it
yeah it is
it's just
if someone said to
someone else
oh what's the Luka Pichon like
they would say
there's a man on it
with low self-esteem
and another man
who is a cunt
that's what they'd say
who also has low self-esteem
that's why he's a cunt
yeah alright listen
