Oh, welcome to the Luke and Pete show.
Is it a Monday? Is it a Thursday?
We're recording this a few days early, so I haven't got a fucking clue.
It's a Monday, isn't it?
It's a Thursday, mate.
It's a Thursday. Well done, mate. Well done, mate.
Thank you for joining us once again on the Luke and Pete show.
Well done, mate.
Thank you for joining us once again on the Luke and Pete show.
Luke, in our last show, you mentioned me turning on the Hollywood lights for Christmas.
I did.
Obviously.
How was your career?
Was that unfair?
Yeah, no, definitely.
Were you up on a big plinth, by the way?
No, no.
No, it was half a scaffold. I think there might have been like a kind of...
After the Civil War.
Like a little, maybe a tea chest I was still on.
Perhaps.
How many people were there?
There was probably about 100 people.
Okay.
It was nice.
It was an honour.
But I just wondered whether, because the internet existed back in 2007,
I thought there's got to be some reference to this online.
Oh, right, cool.
In the Holloway newspaper.
Yeah.
And there is.
I did a little Google while you were talking.
In the Islington Tribune,
publications by the New Journal Enterprises,
yeah, there's a piece written by Roshin Gadalrab,
which, no, no, that's not an acronym or anything.
I thought it looked like it was a backwards name.
Yeah, it was published 5th of October 2007. And there I am in the newspaper. What thought it was like, it looked like it was a backwards name. Yeah, it was published
5th of October 2007
and there I am
in the newspaper.
What does it say?
It's quite a good piece.
It's got a lot of stuff in there.
The title is
Ord to Holloway Hall of Fame.
It's got a picture of me
going, ooh.
Yeah.
And, yeah,
ageing rocker
Billy Joel's
epic song
We Didn't Start the Fire
has inspired
a breakfast radio presenter
to pen a homage
to the chippies and kebab shops of
Holloway Road. Oh, this is Holloway Road Shops I Admire.
So this was the inn. This is why we got
the gig. Holloway Road Shops I Admire.
Yeah. Classic tune.
Cheeky Pete of cult rock and indie radio
station XFM, who hosts The Breakfast Show with Alex Zane.
Oh, that's generous. I mean, that
is overstepping my mark, I would say.
Brilliant. Has written a song
in tribute to his
home streets outlets
word of the song
has already spread
to deputy council
leader Terry Stacey
who rang up the show
on Monday
and managed to talk
the two DJs
into turning on
the Christmas lights
at the Nags Head
in November
Mr Stacey said
the song is quite amusing
I'm a secret XFM fan
I was listening in
because I wanted to
win Kaiser Chiefs tickets
where Billy Joel's song reads like a reduced Shakespeare company
summary of modern history,
name checking the likes of Nixon and Monroe,
DJ Chicky Pete, whose real name is Pete Donaldson,
runs through his favourite shops.
Lyrics from the song includes,
it's Holloway road shops that I admire,
facilities that I require,
Argos, Holloway Cycles, Chicken Village,
Waitrose, Nags Head, Michael's High Clash Fish Bar,
Pizza Zone,
Pizza Zone,
Global Internet.
And that was the lyrics
from the song.
Chicky Pete said,
I was writing about
the varied microcosm
that is Holloway Road.
I'm strolling down there.
There's everything.
Arsenal Stadium.
I can go up the 24-hour garage
and buy bigger juice,
the greatest drink.
It's just a great street.
I like going into Waitrose
and then popping into
cash converters
to see what's there.
It's nice to know that in 13 years my tastes haven't really
sort of advanced. That's exactly what you would do now
if you were in Holyrood, isn't it? Myself and Alex are both
excited about the Christmas lights. Alex has never attended
the Nags Head shopping centre and he wonders
what it might be like. I told him it's futuristic.
Alex's famous he didn't
turn up. He didn't turn up, no.
He was turning on the
lights, let's say, or turning on the lights let's say uh or
turning on the electricity to the radio station uh xfm south wales which lasted about six months
yeah there was a few of them knocking about when they xfm south wales and manchester and they sort
of joined up and we are as we sit here right now as you say 13 14 years later not a mere stone's
throw from holloway Road now true yeah
we've not really moved on
have we really
I suppose
you could say that Peter
not really
you could say that
but you must have given
that quote as well
to the journalist there
who's starting out
making her way
let's be honest
she's not doing this
as an end game
she's making her way
in the world
you've given her a quote there
yeah I mean
do you remember saying it
I don't remember saying it
I don't remember the interview
we should really sort of check out what that uh the deputy council
leader terry stacy because basically they were like terry stacy was the kingmaker there um yeah
yeah she's she's a terry stacy is a loud lib dem activist uh i think he's got an mbe now
he has got an mba well there you go bloody hell former councilor terry said yeah and he's got an MBE now he has got an MBE well there you go bloody hell former councillor Terry
yeah
and he's met Lady Gaga
by the looks of things
I'm on his Instagram
right now
I'm on his Instagram
he's a bloody lovely man
he's bald
and he's got a big grey beard
in 2014
after 12 years
as a Liberal Democrat
councillor
two of which he spent
as a council leader
Mr Stacey was thrown
out of his Highbury seat
an ill-advised An ill-advised decision
to let cheeky Pete Donaldson
turn on Christmas lights
and come back as a haunting.
Yeah.
Amazing.
Do you look back on that with great fondness?
Yeah, I guess so, yeah.
Did you go to the pub after?
Yes, I believe I did.
I went with a band who did a song about Holloway Road
called The Glam Girls or something. There was a band called The Holloways as wellay Road called like The Glam Girls
or something
there was a band
called The Holloways
as well wasn't there
there was yeah
they used to play
in Nambuka
up the road
I used to like
going to Nambuka
Nambuka was good
I think it burnt down
a few of the bands
I was involved with
played there
I think it did as well
and I wouldn't like
to comment on the
circumstances around that
I don't think
you should either
what you should do
however
is probably do your
flies up
no
it's very distracting for me who knows when I'll think about Hero Quest can they just you should do, however, is probably do your flies up. No. It's very distracting for me.
Who knows when I'll think about HeroQuest.
Can I just come down and you just not put them up?
I just don't put them up, to be honest.
I'm very distractible.
You've got to come across London, though, so to speak, to get here.
What's happening?
What's happening with you?
Oh, dear.
Speaking of...
Cheeky Pete.
What a little cheeky Pete I am.
What about this for a story then, Peter?
If we're doing odd stories.
Mills.
This is from a website in the US
run by the appalling Sinclair Group.
So apologies in advance for that.
But it's a Luke and Pete show story
that we just have to cover.
It's the news that you won't get anywhere else.
I'm just going to read the first sentence.
A woman on a Delta Airlines flight
reportedly started to breastfeed
her cat
during a flight
and refused to stop when confronted by the crew
the incident happened
on a flight from Syracuse, New York
to Atlanta, Georgia
it's weird
but if it was an incident
on a plane
because it can be quite nerve wracking
when you see it.
I've been on planes
when there have been incidents
and it's been awful
because obviously you're terrified.
Well, I mean,
that'll calm you down
and you breastfeed a cat.
If it's just that,
I'm actually fairly happy with that.
What, if you're just like,
yeah, but if that's what she's doing
as the flight's taken off,
what's going to be
the coup de grace
in her eyes? Well, you're actually's going to be the coup de grace in her eyes
where you're actually
building up to a main event
I think
she may have
detonated
a bomb
at you know
20,000 feet
but you would not believe
what she did before that
detonated a cat
detonated a cat
but what would you think
if you were sitting
with someone sat behind you
I think some things
are just a bit much
I mean I'm all for
women breastfeeding where they want to breastfeed but I think a things are just a bit much I mean I'm all for women breastfeeding where they want to breastfeed
but I think a cat is just
odd
it's odd isn't it
that's stepping over some lines
apparently the aircraft have to use the aircraft
communications addressing and reporting system
which pilots use to transmit
short text based messages to the ground
and according to a report found from Newsweek...
It's been misspelled.
Go, check this out.
The report reads,
a passenger in seat 13A is breastfeeding a cat
and will not put the cat back in the carrier.
Well, that's the real crime.
Yeah.
Not putting it back in the carrier.
Because I'm terribly allergic.
Yeah.
But maybe I'd tell you those are cats,
but maybe watching a cat getting breastfed
might distract my,
distract me.
A new,
an onlooker said
that a woman had a hairless cat
swaddled up in a blanket
so it looked like a baby.
That's even more sinister,
isn't it?
That makes it worse,
doesn't it?
That is in flight entertainment,
right there.
Good God.
I was once on a flight
where a woman tried to open the door.
Yeah. You know what I told you? Drunk vodka lady, yeah. Oh my God. She was so drunk she shouldn't have got on the plane. I was once on a flight where a woman tried to open the door. Yeah.
Drunk vodka lady, yeah.
Oh my God.
She was so drunk
she shouldn't have got on the plane.
I can't believe they let her on.
Then when I landed,
I got accosted by a news crew
in Boston.
So what?
Which just asked me
what my opinion was.
Yeah.
You were like,
do you mind?
I'm breastfeeding my cat.
I waved him off.
Would it be physically funny if a man was doing it?
I think it would be physically funny.
Well, a man could do it, could he?
Well, no, but I mean, I don't think...
What, you've just got a cat licking a man's nipple?
Yeah, I don't think a cat...
That's what you're talking about, isn't it?
If you're like smearing a bit, I don't know,
what a cat's like, peanut butter?
Your nipples cut the cat's face off.
Your face off.
Sharpest nipples in town.
Oh, dear. John Travolta and Nick Cage vibes. Yeah. his face off face off as sharp as nipples in town oh dear
John Travolta
and Nick Cage
vibes
I think three times
now I've
in front of a camera
been taught to
take the old
nip nips down
yeah it's a great
it's a great asset
claim to fame
which is I just think
that you know
it could be worse
couldn't it
yeah
I can't think how
at this point
but I just think
if you carry on with your hair that way you will go a bit Nick Cage I think if you this point but I just think if you carry on
with your hair that way
you will go a bit
Nick Cage I think
as you get older
yeah I'd have that
little eagle hair
did you see that
a woman
speaking of doing
fucking weird stuff
did you see that
a woman
just before Christmas
said that she was
going to be eating
Christmas dinner
with her
mother's ashes
I think
right
not on a condiment.
Yeah.
What?
She's eating her mum's ashes on her dinner.
And she's been eating it for quite a while,
so I think she'll always be with her and stuff.
But that's not...
No, she's not always going to be with you.
That's the point.
Yeah.
She's not going to be always with you because she...
She'll poke it out.
Yes.
Yeah, I guess so, yeah.
I mean, as if turkey isn't dry enough.
Why is she telling people as well?
Why is she telling people?
It's like she's proud of it.
Yeah.
I don't know where these kind of newspaper...
What their duty of care is as a newspaper.
Like, it's a funny story because, ha-ha, weird.
But, I mean, that's... And the breastfeeding cat, it's just someone who's a bit mad because haha weird um but i mean that's it i'm
in the breastfeeding cat it's just it's just someone who's a bit mad in it you know what i
mean we should be a bit more careful about stuff i mean we're still going to use a little bit show
material let's make that very clear but like where does the newspapers kind of duty of care end and
start sort of going well i'm just clearly wrong and she yeah there's a thing the thing is about
the breastfeeding cat on the plane be interesting to know if that is actually an offence.
Right.
It's probably getting the cat out of the crate.
That'll be the offence, yeah.
Not breastfeeding it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like, yeah, it's hard to know.
I suppose, like, you know when Al Capone was done,
I think it was for tax evasion at the end.
They couldn't pin anything else on him.
Like Boris getting done for his Zoom call.
It's just like for his party
or not in this case.
You sort of go,
well,
Bojo.
Bojo,
what are you doing?
Bojo,
what are you doing?
Yeah,
so you're probably right.
It probably is that
because obviously
it was an internal flight
you can take pets on.
Right.
Which always confuses me
because like,
the wife I have access to
when she was living in the US
would do a lot of internal flights
for work and stuff like that.
She said you'd regularly see
like a little cat or a dog in a little carrier. My cats lot of internal flights for work and stuff like that. She said you'd regularly see like a little cat
or a dog in a little carrier.
My cats would go mad if you put them on a plane.
They wouldn't know what was going on.
They'd get so stressed.
But they're kind of genealogies from Mr. T though.
Give them milk.
Maybe that's what she was doing.
Yes.
Give a new cat milk.
Give the cat milk to calm down.
Yes, exactly.
Probably a good point.
My cats can't even go five minutes in the car
on the vet without losing their shit
or I take a dog
to a vet
my dog
to a vet
not just a dog
a dog
just grabbed it off the street
go to the vet
I fancy a bill
the um
wow yeah
Jesus
like wow
wow
they will
listen
they do a great job
and you know
British people
particularly love their pets
that is what the NHS is going to be like.
The money falls out of your pocket as soon as you walk in the door.
75 sheets just to see someone.
This guy was really interesting looking.
He looked like a member of Pavement or something.
Big sort of ginger-fraw flares, glasses, mask.
He looked really cool.
This sounds great.
He looked really cool.
Scooby-Doo.
He looked like one of your friends. He looked like one of your friends.
He looked like one of your school friends.
My friends are cooler than me, is what you're saying?
Yeah, pretty much.
Fair enough.
Get to your point.
What's happening?
Yeah, but Buckley was given his vaccines or whatever,
and he's banged it in his neck.
And the needles are quite long.
Right in his neck.
Didn't fucking... He's just looking at me
did not give a shit
but you're not frightened
of the needles are you
I'm not frightened of them
but you can feel it
when it goes in
you go ooh you bastard
how old is Buckley
14
he's just like
seen it all mate
I've seen it all mate
I've had lots of these
do you know what's
the fascinating dynamic
in the vet
it's happened to me before
is it's very difficult
and people listening
who've got pets will understand what I mean here this is where the comedy of life lies I think it's happened to me before is it's very difficult and people listening who've got pets
will understand what I mean here
this is where the comedy
of life lies I think
it's very difficult
in a vet
to distinguish between
the vet's tone
becoming quite grave
right
because that happens
right
so you take
so it's happened to me
before you take your cat in
they look at the cat
and the tone becomes
quite grave and it's impossible to distinguish between whether You take your cat in, they look at the cat, and the tone becomes quite grave.
And it's impossible to distinguish between
whether their grave tone is because the cat's fucked
or because it's going to cost you a lot of money.
Oh, so they go in, right.
And it happens every time.
So one of my cats, Hercules, had to have an abscess drain.
I think I might have told you at the time.
He goes, I'm so sorry.
And the vet calls me.
So I'm like, oh, fucking hell, normally I don't call.
Because it was COVID, so you couldn't go in.
Right.
And they say, come back in half an hour and your cat will be ready.
How did you do it?
Just throw it through the cat flap?
They let you hand them over.
Right.
And then they say, right, go for it.
Go sit in your car or go for a walk or whatever.
Half an hour, come back and your cat will be ready.
Yeah.
And they called.
They don't normally call.
They called.
And the guy was like, oh, hello, Mr. Moore.
This is what's happened.
Yeah.
And I'm very sorry to say.
And I thought you were going to say, oh, there's nothing we can do. Yeah. Because it's a cat. what's happened and I'm very sorry to say and I thought he was going to say
there's nothing we can do
because it's a cat
we've got two injections
very sorry to say
one go bye bye
or one get better
but expensive
he's like
I'm very sorry to say
he's like yeah
it's going to cost you 200 pounds
right
okay
that's not ideal
but like
I'd rather the cat be alive
you're like
yeah
but sadly
isn't
but on the other hand though, isn't that a really privileged
thing for me to say? Because some people would have to make
maybe not be able to afford £200.
And it would be really difficult. And then they have payment
plans and stuff. But it's like awful.
And you're right, maybe in the future that's what it's
going to be like in the old hospitals. Unless
you are a very
highly wanted drug trafficker
and you have to get all your surgery
and gunfights done by the vet.
Because you don't want to go to the hospital
and get caught by the feds.
So you need to pay off a corrupt vet
to operate on you.
Yeah, get your dog antibiotics.
I see that in films a lot,
but I've never seen that in real life.
Just because you're not a gunfighting drug dealer.
I live in West Norwood.
I would see it at some point, I think.
It's never happened to me before.
Anyway, let's have a break.
When we come back,
we'll do some battery brands,
as we always do. We had a couple of new players last time, I before. Anyway, let's have a break. When we come back, we'll do some battery brands, as we always
do.
We had a couple of
new players last time,
I think.
Hopefully, we'll have
a couple more.
Yeah, so we'll see
you just the other
side of this.
Oh, you can get
fucked.
It's the look of
Pete Shaw.
It's reading my
emails.
What?
What's happened?
What's happened?
Administering a
business broadband
line is very difficult
when you don't
technically have a business
because they insist on,
when you email them
to sort of go,
there's something wrong
with this account,
this bill I got,
there's too much money.
Oh, you mean it's
a separate thing?
And because I'm like
emailing from like
a Gmail account,
it's not Stack,
it's my own personal
kind of service company,
which I've always had,
I've had for like 10 years, 15 years. And um and i'm like going right this bill's wrong is what was agreed with the
person i set up the contract with and they go sorry you can't accept an email from this account
it has to be uh from your business like email account i don't have an email like we don't have
to have a domain with chewing gum volley written we don't have to have a domain with chewing gum volley written on it.
We don't have to have that.
But they won't accept it.
They won't accept my downhill.
Isn't it more expensive?
They're idiots.
They're imbecile.
What company is it?
I'm not saying.
It's pretty easy to figure out.
Who does business lines?
BT Broadband.
It was BT Business.
Okay, yeah.
Their broadband is very good.
BT Business, more difficult to deal with. You had problems
with them before, didn't you? Oh, constant, mate.
Constant. I keep on getting an email
from a bloke who
mugged me royally off about
a year ago for six months. I remember.
What was his name again? I think it was
Corhan. Yeah. He
mugged me off for a long time
and then he
recently just started sending me a message
going
are we okay
to shut off this line
are we okay
to shut off this line
and the address is wrong
the business is wrong
I'm going
stop sending me
this demented admin
I can't even
I don't even have time
to do my own fucking admin
I'm not going to do
someone else's
yeah go on
you know what mate
fucking turn it off
you know what
and another thing
I ain't fucking paying you
fucking man
take me to fucking take me to fucking court go on mate turn it off you know what and another thing I ain't fucking paying you fucking is that why I was a web service
take me to fucking
take me to fucking court
go on mate
oh dear lord
so when are you up in court
I would like
yeah I'd like what
because I'm going to
fuck up at some point
I would like just
one big court date
just get everything done
just do a pre
hensive
pre hensive
do kind of like a
like a court date
for everything
you're going to get wrong
in your life
just sort of go
I'm sorry I run that guy over
I'm sorry I didn't pay this bill
I'm sorry I knocked down
this wall illegally
just get them all sorted out
the court can give their judgement
and then I'd have to
fucking do the more admin
like doing bad admin
just means more admin
later on
but what about
as I sit you down
for a few years
I'd happily take a couple of years in prison right now no one asking anything of me Doing bad admin just means more admin later on. But what about if they send you down for a few years?
I'd happily take a couple of years in prison right now.
No one asking anything of me.
Why?
If in 2019 they sort of went,
right, next two years are going to be a fucking nightmare.
You're not going to be able to do anything.
No one's going to achieve anything.
It's going to be difficult.
Do you want to take two years off and then commit some really horrible crimes in the future?
But two years in jail. Do a commit some really horrible crimes in the future yeah
but two years in jail
do a bit like drug dealing
two years in jail
with no priors
you would have had to
have done something naughty
I mean
yeah
these days
these days mate
I don't think you'd last
that long in prison
if I was in isolation
you don't like routine
yeah
but I'd get into the routine
wouldn't I
I'd crave it
what job would you do there everyone else do a job would into the routine, wouldn't I? I'd crave it.
What job would you do there?
Everyone else would do a job.
Would you want library?
I wouldn't be cooking, would it?
Would you want chow line?
What?
Chow line.
Chow line?
Chow line.
Oh, right.
They don't run that, do they?
Chow line's where they go for the food, isn't it?
Yeah.
I'd make poppies.
They do that in there?
Yeah.
In America, you do everything.
License plates, washing machines, all sorts.
It's a disgrace. I think you would struggle because of the routine thing.
Yeah.
I'd struggle with the politics around the poppy.
I'll make them, but I won't wear them.
I think you'd be giving your mouth a fucking shot.
Lest someone pop a willy in there.
Yeah.
Anyway, battery brands.
Battery brands.
Are we back on that
are we
yeah
we're doing that still
aren't we
cool
yeah
right battery brands
which bit have we got here
where are we at
do you want me to do a new search
no I've got them
I've got them
Kyle
Kyle from Edinburgh
Tronics
I don't think you've heard
of this battery
or I've heard of this battery
on the show before
Tronic
I found it in a box of fairy lights
that I told my mum not to buy when I took her for a shop in Lidl.
Does anyone else's mothers have an obsession with fucking fairy lights?
She has them everywhere.
In old alcohol bottles as decorations, around picture frames in the house,
just anywhere she can hand or attach them to.
It's not been the case in my house, in my mum and dad's house,
but maybe I should get my mum into fairy lights.
I think they're a lovely little bit of decoration. Lovely bit of electronic
landfill. I can remember like there was
a phase where every single girl used
to have fairy lights around the head of their bed
didn't they? Say again? That was like a thing.
Yes, like little kind of
tea light kind of things.
Anyway, Tronics, they are
according to my records, I was surprised
to hear this and I double checked. I'm pleased to sayics, they are, according to my records, I was surprised to hear this and I double-checked.
I'm pleased to say, Carl, they are new players.
Tronics are new players.
I feel like we're probably going to get a bombardment of emails now
saying they're not, but I can't see any of them,
any examples of them in the inbox.
So I'm going to officially award you new player status.
Well done, Carl.
Kyle does say that the only reason that his mum bought the
fairy lights was
because they
actually came with
free batteries.
Oh, that's a
good deal.
Good deal.
Lee from
Midstone has
come in with
Super Long
Life.
I'm fairly
certain that's
not a new
player.
Unsure if
these have been
sent in before,
but I thought I'd
give it a go.
Found these in
a kid's toy.
Needless to say,
it wasn't long
before they needed
replacing.
I thought they were
called low life
at the start
but I thought
it was a bit harsh
but they are
super long life

on to Lee
you are the fourth
person to send those in
Lee I'm afraid
so you do not have
new player status there
not too bad
it's not goal of the month
but it's not
not too bad
you've got to embarrass
yourself there
Lizette Entwistle
has come in with
what a name by the way
how do you gloss him over that?
Lizzy.
Lizzy Midimax.
Extra heavy duty AAAs.
New?
Question mark.
Efficient.
Found in an AC remote in Melbourne in Australia.
What a big show off, Lin.
Yeah, that is a show off.
That is the third time we've received Midimax.
Greg Sleet, the amazingly named Greg Sleet,
and the boringly named Tom Smith have both sent those in in the past that's not a new place we've got one out of
three there this week and even the one i'm kind of skeptical about um but anyway there we go yeah
yeah well they go um we have got a uh did we see the river fuel fuel beans DJ Chubby Bubble sent us on Twitter
I'm almost certain
that that is the
obvious plant
have you seen that
obvious plant guy
I don't understand
anything you're saying
can you explain
someone has made
these
basically
you know like
raver fuel
it's like a kind of
oh so like
energy beans
energy beans
like beans with
sweet beans
with taurine yeah beans with taurine
yeah beans with taurine
beans with caffeine
or whatever
are they legal
they got sent in
are they legal
there's a guy
who does
silly things
like makes
fake plastic toys
that don't exist
and sticks them
on a shelf
and takes a picture
of them
and releases them
on Instagram
sometimes you can
just sort of buy
I think he sells
some of them
it's like a plastic
bag with like a plastic bag
with like a toy arm in it
or something.
He goes,
it's just an arm or something.
And he sells it
and I've seen him.
And yeah,
it's,
he's made like a big,
a big sort of Heinz
see-through plastic thing.
A bottle.
And he's made a little label
for it,
River Fuel.
But it's,
it's a parody. It's a parody. So you don't necessarily little label for it, River Fuel. But it's a parody.
It's a parody.
So you don't necessarily need to worry about that.
But thank you to...
It's a good idea, though.
Thank you to DJ Chubby Bubble.
Look,
Sarah gets through
a lot of beans.
I'm not a beansman myself.
I'm a beansman.
You're a beansman.
But you know,
some people wouldn't
consider me a real beansman.
Right.
Because back in the day,
my friends who were
proper beansmen
said that if you open
a full-size can of Heinz beans,
you've got to eat it in one go or you're not a beansman.
I only go for the small tins.
Oh, right.
If you ever have one of the big tins, do you take the lid off and then pop the lid back into the beans
as if that's going to protect it from the air?
I'll do cling film, baby.
You'll do cling film.
Good man.
Yeah, you got it.
Solid.
Apparently, what you should
always do to go the full way
to preserve the longevity
of the beans
is to put them
in a Tupperware, really.
Yeah.
Once you pop the can,
it's not really suitable.
Yeah, but your Tupperware
is going to start getting
yellow and red and disgusting.
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
You don't like beans at all, no?
No, I'm not a beans guy.
Can I put this out there?
Get some Tabasco on them.
I'll put this out.
No, I'll do that. Right. Let me put this out which is very some Tabasco on them. I'll put this out. No, I'll do that.
Right.
Let me put this out,
which is very controversial.
I think we're going to get listeners
up in arms about this,
but I am who I am.
I like baked beans with fish and chips.
Ooh.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm having it.
Yeah?
Yeah, that's fair.
You're not a mashed peas man.
I sort of see,
I'm fairly certain
I used to see that kind of caper
up north a bit more
than down here.
Like beans with,
beans with chips and cheese
and,
no,
would you have fish,
fish and beans though?
I think that's alright.
It's where the fish meets the beans.
I think it's fine.
The beans and chips are fine,
the fish and chips are fine,
but if the fish touches the beans
I'll be disgusted.
Use the chips as a breakwater.
Use the chips as a breakwater.
Use a long chip.
Yeah,
but the curry sauce vibe I go for now as well. Nice. I like the fish with the curry sauce. People say no, it's Use the chips as a breakwater. Use the chips as a breakwater. Use a long chip. Yeah, but the curry sauce vibe, I go for now as well.
Nice.
I like the fish with the curry sauce.
People are so nice for the chips,
but I think it works with the fish as well.
Well, they put fish,
they put like odds and ends of the battered fish
in the curry sauce, don't they?
That's why it's nice.
Yeah, it tastes really good.
Anyway, let's do an email here.
Which one do we want to do?
That one's a bit boring.
Steve's good.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, you do Steve.
You do Steve.
We were asking the question,
how does stomach bacteria
survive stomach acid?
Because it's a very strong acid.
I think it's a good question.
Yeah.
I was also asking,
how do good bacteria,
the occults and stuff
of this world,
how does that survive
stomach acid?
Well, if you listened last time,
I don't really survive.
Nothing survives.
Steve says,
I'm not an expert,
but I can offer a rough answer.
At times of difficulty
and or boredom,
many bacteria
produce spores.
Instead of normal replication
in which they divide
to become new,
two new bacteria,
they instead copy their DNA
and stick it in
a hardened little pod.
This spore can survive
extreme conditions
like acid, dryness,
and at a later time,
if it finds itself
in a big pile of food,
it can wake up as tiny bacterium
and eat its environment until it grows into a full-sized bacterium.
Is this true?
So indeed, I'm pretty sure that most or all of the adult bacteria in yogurt
do die in the hellhole, it's your stomach,
but the spores in the actual bacteria can pass through it.
Whether or not this actually grants any benefit
is a matter of active research and debate.
Danone Activia had to stop advertising
its purported benefits due to lack of evidence.
Steve, thank you very much.
That's very kind of you.
I like that Steve clearly is an expert.
He is an expert here.
He should be humble, but he's just calling himself Steve.
He's not going Dr. Steve this or Professor Steve that.
I think he just read it, watched YouTube or something.
Everyone's like you, Pete.
Everyone is like me, a little bit,
and that's what makes them sad inside.
Not everyone's watching fucking salmon eggs
being fertilised at four in the morning.
Oh, what a spurt.
Fucking Tippex.
Beautiful.
Beautiful.
Well, it's good to have some information.
Yeah.
I mean, let's see if we can get a bit further
down the line on that
and the explanation from some other listeners.
But Steve, that's a great opening gambit.
What about this one?
We'll squeeze this one in then
from Darren.
Are our listeners called
Steve and Darren?
Is that the kind of listeners
we've got?
What are you saying
about Steve and Darren?
Just saying.
You're saying they sound
like mechanics.
You're saying they're
too down at heel
to listen to this
brain box of a show.
We've had a battery
suggestion from
Lizette Entwistle and now we're back down to Steve and Darren. I'm just saying. He box of a show. We've had a battery suggestion from Lizette Entwistle.
And now we're back down to Stephen Darrow.
I'm just saying.
He sounds like a battery.
Yeah.
An Entwistle I think we've heard.
Right.
Darren says, hi chaps.
It's Darren the plasterer of Snowflame fame a couple of weeks ago.
And I thought I'd get in touch again regarding the bounce by the ounce
mentioned the other week.
Bounce by the ounce.
I don't remember this.
What's it about?
Drugs.
Just drugged up guys and gals having a good time at a really shitty nightclub.
That man had gone...
Oh, yeah.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it turns out the man in question is also a plasterer from the very same town as me.
Wow.
He's called Wacko Jacko and you can follow him on TikTok.
Unsurprisingly, he's a man who absolutely loves a rave.
It's this that leads me to tell you about the first time I saw him in person.
It was at the gym in the centre of town and was also my first time in this particular place.
It has a huge screen in the middle of the room which plays loads of different music videos.
The end stood in front of the screen is when I first saw him raving at the screen continuously for an hour and a half.
Never in my life have I ever seen someone train for raves at the screen continuously for an hour and a half never have in my life have i ever
seen someone train for raves at the gym what he's just having a dance up yeah by himself to the
screen yeah getting ready for a rave yeah wow he says i also hope next time i email and it was
nothing to do with these this type of thing because i can tell i'm not really painting
plaster isn't a good light much love guys Darren. I'm fascinated by plastering.
Right.
It looks like really fucking hard work.
Yeah.
And I don't think they get any respect.
Who's disrespecting the plasterer?
If you ask someone out on the street what a plasterer does,
they wouldn't be able to tell you.
What do you mean they wouldn't be able to tell you?
They would just go, uh, I don't know, just put stuff on walls.
What more is there than to the plaster?
Disrespectful to Darren.
What do you mean?
There's a lot going on.
Well, there is a lot going on because you've got to keep it fucking flat.
You're basically slopping porridge on a fucking wall
and it's got to stick to it and it's got to be flat.
I know, I'm saying it's great.
It's really great work, is what I'm saying.
It's really great work.
No one's slagging it off.
It's like panel beating.
How do you do it?
I mean, that's more... it's really good work. No one's slagging it off. It's like panel beating. How do you do it? Well,
I mean,
that's,
that's more,
you don't see,
there's very few panel beaters that you need.
Like you don't sort of go,
I need a panel beater in my home to beat my panels.
No,
I know that.
Yeah.
So like,
there's a bit more,
there's a bit more mystique to that.
But I mean,
plaster,
we've all seen a plaster of plaster.
It's incredible.
I used to,
when I was an electrician's labourer
for a bit
back in the day
when the plasterers
used to come in
fucking hell
they're quick
and they're good
it's amazing really
they must have
incredible wrists
I can't paint a wall
without going
fucking hell
my wrist
yeah I put up
Sonic on the wall
put a big map
up on the wall
the other day
big map
in a frame
the places you've conquered
took me about
three hours
is it one of those
scratchy off ones tell them where you've been yeah it me about three hours is it one of those scratchy off ones
tell them where you've been
yeah
it's just above my
live love laugh
placard

you're not even a flat earther
you're a
pro-Pangira
you're just kind of like
I do not agree
with the
oceans
and all breaking apart

Pangira isn't it oh yeah I thought you said something else it? What? What did you call the place? Pangea, isn't it?
Oh yeah, I thought you said something else.
It is Pangea, yeah.
What did you think it was?

Pangeira from the Thundercats.
Panthera.
Yeah, well, unfortunately...
Was Panthera a Thundercat?
Panthro.

Strong man.
Strong man.

It got a bit weird, didn't it?
No.
Flash Gordon.
Distasteful.
Flash Gordon, Lothar, Mandrake.
