Starting point is 00:00:00 it's the luca peter it is monday the 13th of march pete donaldson with you i'm joined by mr lukey moore lukey i've been watching that physical 100 program like loads yeah so i think i'm a bit behind i was the one who recommended it to you, but I think I'm maybe two episodes behind now. So I've just finished the episode where they have to lug the big ships. The big ships. So I've not watched that one yet. I've only just got a... Because they got a good two episodes out of that fucking sand one.
Starting point is 00:00:40 The sand and the bridge. Yes. They love a cliffhanger, don't they? They love a cliffhanger,'t they they love a cliffhanger and they i don't know how they managed to get two episodes out of that one that was they had to build a sort of wooden platform on ropes and then um basically church a load of um sand over to the other side and the and the team out of the two uh that were doing battle uh whichever team goes through you uh yeah you get to you you get to um not get thrown out
Starting point is 00:01:05 the competition but it's basically whoever loves the most sand into the tube at the end went through right and that uh that sexy yammer guy still in there i think the guy the guy that just looks cool oh he's great ufc fighter jung hoon soon i think his name is he's brilliant he looks like a korean iron man i guess so he's just a complete dude but like when they talk about each other's bodies and things and and and they they're quite poetic with how they sort of describe one another you know what i mean they sort of go he is like uh you know they they talk beautifully about each other's bodies but it is just about talking about each other's bodies do you remember what i said to you when i first started watching it it was kind of interesting the cultural differences between
Starting point is 00:01:47 what it would be like in the uk in the uk it would just be trash talk central the kind of people who be on it a uk version which i'm sure they'll make at some point it'll just be massive it'll be almost like a boxing um promotion where they just trash talk each other and then you know embarrass themselves and you know and and because you know themselves. And they may not be media trained, so they'll say something absolutely fucking horrific. Yeah, exactly. And there was a bit in Physical 100 where there's a young Korean MMA fighter and there's an older Korean MMA fighter that we just talked about there.
Starting point is 00:02:21 And when they had to pick an opponent to wrestle with for um one particular round the younger mma fighter went straight up to like the world champion older one who was obviously much harder than him was like it would be an honor for me to fight you i choose you and that would never happen to that there must be some kind of like respect based thing in in in that environment where they they feel like they have to it would be they would it would be disrespectful to not choose them or something because it was absolutely no reason he would have chosen him but then there was that other usc fighter who just um who chose the woman and then and then kneeled on a chest for about
Starting point is 00:03:00 five minutes and nearly got disqualified i mean it was just a horrible a horrible thing. Absolutely rancid. But how long do you reckon because the first round was where they had to hang on to that scaffold for as long as possible, wasn't it? How long do you reckon you can hold on to that? You'd be quite good at that, I reckon. Nah, too heavy. I am deceptively heavy. Really? It's really... Dense. I reckon... I fancy my chances to beat you, but only you.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Oh, you would. I would last under a second. I'm telling you. And someone would land on top of me and break my nose. Yeah, that actually happened to me before when I was playing football once. I slid-tackled someone and they landed on my face. And it busted my nose. And then when I was in the shower afterwards, I blew my nose and a bit of my nose came out. That's absolutely disgusting.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Yeah. Not good, is it? It's not good. I'm sorry if people are disgusted by that. I should have given you a warning, but it wasn't ideal. Do you know what's absolutely disgusting. Yeah. Not good, is it? It's not good. I'm sorry if people are disgusted by that. I should have given you a warning, but it wasn't ideal. Do you know what's more disgusting? A man we mentioned about three or four weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Mr. Beast's chocolate. We've had a go at KSI and Logan Paul's Prime. We're now talking about Mr. Beast's chocolate. Last week, Mr. Beast, a man who is a multi-multi-billion... He'll be the first YouTube billionaire, apparently. He's not a billionaire, is he? He will be. He will be the first one.
Starting point is 00:04:11 That's what they're saying. That's word on. I mean, I don't know how much he's, you know... I don't know how liquid he is, but yeah. How is he able to make so much money? He's only 24 now. He looks about your age. Well, he's my... He's got the same name as me. Second name as me.
Starting point is 00:04:28 So I think I should be entitled to a bit of it. Yeah. Go on, Mr Beast. So he's got some chocolate out, has he? He's got some chocolate out called Feastables.
Starting point is 00:04:36 I guess it's Mr Beastables Feastables. And he tweeted, I need your help. Next time you see Feastables in Walmart and soon to be new retailers,
Starting point is 00:04:45 if you could clean up the presentation and make it look better, that would make me very happy. I'm building a team to do this routinely. I just need help in the short term. So he's basically getting his followers and fans to go around Walmart and basically tidy up his product line. That's clever. And people are doing it and they are replying saying, I've done it master.
Starting point is 00:05:15 It's just like, I mean, there's one guy who's going, this is exactly why I think creator brands will dominate shelf space this decade. No typical chocolate brand could get consumers to care enough to do this Mr Beast says Lone Wolf
Starting point is 00:05:30 Real Nelson on Twitter I was at Walmart and I saw your chocolate bar I fixed them properly anything for the team I even bought the chocolate sea salt one hashtag team Mr Beast
Starting point is 00:05:41 and it's just horrific Luke it's absolutely horrific it is that he's got this power that people are going to be you know going at what I bet I'd be I'd be knocking them on the floor I'd be jamming my keys through the packaging I'd be shoplifting them so are we asking people that when they go into a Walmart or presumably an American retailer um yeah and they see Mr. Beast chocolate to throw it on the floor. Walk over to where they're selling the deli counter
Starting point is 00:06:10 where you have salads and stuff and sometimes you'll have a little... In Whole Foods you have urns of soup and stuff that you can pour yourself some soup. Just chuck all the bars in the soup. Melt it. I want to melt it. Up to and just stopping before
Starting point is 00:06:27 you'd get kicked out and possibly banned from the shop. You've gone full on, ban yourself from the shop. Because Mr Beast... You're not removing it. You're not removing the Mr Beast chocolate from the shop are you? You're just putting them in the soup. But Mr Beast has got a lot more of a loyal
Starting point is 00:06:43 following than us. People will do stuff that he says. They won't do stuff we say. Yeah, I mean, he's like there's a guy, I mean, people are like proper like going, you got it boss. Heading out to a few Walmarts now to get to work and the
Starting point is 00:06:59 official Feastables Twitter page says, let's go. Two hands in the air. High fives. It's awful, isn't it? It's a bit frightening. It's awful. Life's awful. I hate it. I watched a Mr. Beast video, which was really interesting.
Starting point is 00:07:11 And I told people about it. And then loads of people who know stuff about Mr. Beast compared to me, which is nothing, said, oh, no, he's a dickhead. But I thought he came across okay. Compared to some of them. compared to some of them erm I mean it's just
Starting point is 00:07:26 it's just like it's like last days of Rome kind of like gorging themselves on like on like like
Starting point is 00:07:34 making it bigger and more expensive and wasting more money than everyone else and just kind of like it's just like there's little creativity there it's just sort of saying
Starting point is 00:07:42 I'm going to do it at a higher price point than everyone else you know I'm going to smash a lamborghini because i can look at this bonus level and street fighter 2 oh like that lad um who was with that other lad on the brits that time do you remember the brits like three or four years ago um the the man uh who's like the biggest rapper in the world give us three oh I want to talk about the Brits again
Starting point is 00:08:07 because I once went to the Brits in 2007 I think it was I think it might have been Kendrick Lamar I think Kendrick Lamar was on and his friend
Starting point is 00:08:14 while he was rapping his friend had like it was a Lambo and he was smashing up the Lamborghini with a baseball bat and that was his performance
Starting point is 00:08:20 but it was Kendrick presumably due to safety concerns. Oh, now you remember. Don't mock me. It was encased in this massive glass cube, so no glass could hit a child and blind them. I just took something away from the whole performance, personally.
Starting point is 00:08:40 I find that quite interesting as a concept, don't you? Yeah, I do. But he only really did the windscreen and a couple of lights. comments personally i find that quite interesting as a concept don't you yeah i do but like smack i mean i mean he only really did the windscreen and a couple of lights that's i could i could fit a couple of lights i didn't actually see it but it would have been crap if he just very delicately purposely broke some very specific parts of the car yeah got a screwdriver out and just did the wing mirror just a little tap little tap tap um yeah i i i haven't seen mr beast do that kind of thing i've seen him do like oh if my mate stays in this room i'll give him a hundred thousand
Starting point is 00:09:11 dollars or something right okay he leaves him in there with all this stuff and he starts taking stuff away and it's quite i just thought it's quite interesting but um to change the subject slightly one of our listeners has been in touch steven and he's been very impressed by um your diy work around your house peter right um obviously thinks you're a man of the world you can get stuck into a lot of different tasks a lot of household tasks okay and steven says um he and his um him and his partner have just bought an old house an 1869 coast guards cottage oh and they found um some interesting stuff i think similar to the problem you had in the base of the wall and he wanted some advice from you on how to restore it right okay what like bits of like wood and stuff
Starting point is 00:10:00 yeah it's like dry rot issues i guess right okay yeah how did you how did you do yours just because you were just i think i just got some like some special um anti um dry and anti rising damp sticks drilled them drilled a hole popped them in and then just you know plastered over the top of them love the old job and that'll last you for at least six or six six weeks or more wouldn't it last you for six weeks yeah that'll more, won't it? Last you for six weeks? Yeah. That'll stave it off for a bit. So we've got this remarkable record outside our house.
Starting point is 00:10:32 So any time we don't want anything in the house anymore, but it's like... Just leave it outside. Yeah, and every single time it gets taken. Yeah. Mimi puts up a sign that says, free, please take. Say I'll take it to the item item and every single time it goes right okay yeah it all just goes because i had a bit of i had a bit i didn't
Starting point is 00:10:53 have an issue with it but i thought it was a bit odd the other week where we had this big dining dining room table which has always been too big for the room we wanted to make a bit more space so um and then we had this like shoe cupboard thing that sat in the hallway um and it kind of serves as a little side table you can put stuff on top of it it's got a drawer in it but it's also got all these places for shoes it's like a really useful piece but we had another uh another because we had the house decorator with another thing that we wanted so i want to get rid of it so i called the local charity and the charity they're really great normally and they what they do is they um get hold of furniture for people who have previously been homeless and they've just got a new place of their own and want to get up on their feet and they can't afford furniture right it's a
Starting point is 00:11:33 really noble cause it's a cool thing and so i called them up so i've got these two pieces and they came around and they said oh yeah we'll have a look and if we want them we'll take them in the lorry they came around with the truck and they took the dining table straight away. They were happy with that. And then this little side table, they wouldn't take it because a couple of the cats had used it to sharpen
Starting point is 00:11:50 their claws on it. Right, okay, yeah. And I was saying to them, you could sand that down in like 10 seconds and it wouldn't be there. Like you wouldn't even be able to see it.
Starting point is 00:11:57 And they were like, no, no, we can't take it. It's damaged. And I was thinking, I'm being rude, but like if I was someone who had a new house and no furniture i'd i'd happily take it i would happily take that but they wouldn't take it catsy cells yeah i know
Starting point is 00:12:11 exactly that's true actually because my cats would just ruin it anyway um so i took it outside we left a little sign on it and it's a quite a big bulky item you couldn't really lift it on your own and uh woke up next morning gone gone. Gone. Well, there you go. The furniture fairy had taken it, mate. The furniture fairy had taken it. I'm going to, on your WhatsApp, Luke. Yeah. I forgot to put this in the running order. I'm just about to send you a little link.
Starting point is 00:12:37 And I'd like you to watch it. And I'd like you to tell listeners what you can see. Okay, clicking now. Clicking now. Okay. tell listeners what you can see. Okay, click it now. Click it now. Okay, it's watch me eat a sink steak. A sink steak. Is he cooking a steak under a hot water tap? Yeah, he's cooking a steak under a hot water tap.
Starting point is 00:12:59 So he's got a steak and he's just put it on a plate and he's eating it with like a big stick of butter on top of it yeah what's the point of that i just think he's better than mr beast the he's a man who his name is basically he's called the butter dog on tiktok and he eats um steaks with massive uh pats of butter so what i told you about have i told you about the guy it reminds me of a guy that so i can't really say how i know him but i don't know him that well as in i've not met him more than once but he's someone who i know through other people and i might have told you about him before but he's insane and he got diagnosed with a kind of gastro illness. He's an American guy.
Starting point is 00:13:49 And he wasn't very happy with the diagnosis. And I think he's one of these kind of big pharma, you know, conspiracy kind of dudes. And so he couldn't go to work because he had this illness and he wouldn't accept the treatment. So he lost his job. I was not laughing at him losing his job so that's terrible but it was his own fucking fault so yeah and then so what he did is he then completely lost it and he started reading all this stuff online about the thing that would sort him
Starting point is 00:14:13 out is this jordan peterson the kind of style diet yeah where um he's taking pills only steak and butter right then it started to escalate and this is all being tracked on like instagram he was doing all of it on instagram so you could see what was happening and he started he started living in his car because his family um were like what are you doing like you can't live here if you haven't got any money because you quit your job because you won't take any treatment for an illness and we'd like you to get help but if we refuse to do it you're not living here so we end up living in this car just driving around anyway yeah it ends up in like california and the culmination of this video series was basically him in the back of his beat-up car
Starting point is 00:14:54 with a cool box full of like really cheap cuts of mints cooking it on like a caligasto with like chunk after chunk of butter going oh yeah i feel really sick i think it must be this illness and it's like it's not the illness mate it's the butter you are eating probably about 500 grams of saturated fat a day and it's just it's absolutely remarkable but anyway i'd have a lovely time for the first few days but it would start to take its toll very quickly wouldn't you like when you're the piece and he would only eat beef for a while yeah yeah, but it would start to take its toll very quickly, wouldn't it? Do you remember when Jordan Peterson would only eat beef for a while? Yeah, yeah. He got interviewed on it.
Starting point is 00:15:28 It's sad because he'd eaten too... What's the stuff they put in beef in the USDA stuff? Clenbuterol. Yeah, it's just all kind of like weird hormones and stuff and it made him cry all the time. Yeah, and he got interviewed on it, didn't he? Some woman interviewed him and was saying... Some interviewer interviewed him and was saying, are you still doing your raw beef diet like chuckling
Starting point is 00:15:47 away and he was like yes and she was like what's it like and he was like i wouldn't recommend it what are you doing then what are you doing it's actually quite hard to i can't do it i can't do it without doing um dr evil from the austin powers movies i can't i can't do it i can't do an impression of him. Is that why you kept crying all the time? I think so. You just add too much funny stick. Funny stick.
Starting point is 00:16:15 Pete, let's have a break because when we come back, do you remember a week or two ago we talked about a guy who worked on The Last of Us? Well, we've got another listener who's been in touch who's working on some other interesting shit and i'd like to talk about it so let's have a break then when we come back we'll do that we're back with the luke and pete show lukey mo what have you got for us you promised a lot before the break and you better fucking deliver yeah so our friends steak and butter for you all
Starting point is 00:16:41 this week oh yes please um our friend sean has been in touch um by emailing hello at luke and pete show.com and he says hi luke and pete you guys were so excited by a recent email from somebody who listened to the show while working on vfx for the brilliant the last of us i thought you might be interested to hear some other shows and movies that have been affected by your brain spores to borrow a metaphor from pete one of the best things about my job as a prop maker oh is that i get to listen to podcasts for about nine hours a day and as such have worked my way through much of the stack stable over the past few years you guys have been spouting nonsense into my ears while i've been building droids for Star Wars, a melted Iron Throne for the finale of Game of Thrones,
Starting point is 00:17:27 and disemboweled horses for Amazon's Lord of the Rings show. That's big, isn't it? That is big. I was even listening to you at work on season two of The Witcher when I got a splinter under my thumb now so big that the entire nail had to get yanked out. Oh, that's... How? What? How did you manage to do that for crying out loud? I'd love to know more about that, Sean.
Starting point is 00:17:44 He says there's been plenty of other jobs too and while i'm prohibited from talking about what i'm currently working on by an nda imagine a building somebody lives in only instead of a person living there it's some kind of huge winged reptile thanks so much for the hundreds and hundreds of hours you naughty boys have kept me sane and i'll promise i'll endeavor to insert a luke and pete Pete show Easter egg into every job from now on. Sean Schofield. Pierce,
Starting point is 00:18:07 if you give me a mailing address for the Stack Office, I'd love to send you guys a couple of trinkets from some jobs I've worked on that you've talked about over the years. Cheers, Sean.
Starting point is 00:18:16 Alright, Rory, get on that. We'll definitely... Yeah, I mean, that is absolutely brilliant, that. What a useful emailer. And the rest of you,
Starting point is 00:18:26 what have you ever done for us? We've got people sending us Prime. We've got Sean who's working on our bloody films and stuff. Amazing. He's going to write Luke and Pete on the forehead of that lizard. Yeah. We had the detective guy from Baltimore who took a shit in a takeaway box and told us about it. The man who wiped bread all over a toilet.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Yeah, exactly. We've had some good ones in the past. But Sean, if you send us some props, let's be perfectly clear about this. We'll keep the best ones, but some of the other ones we'll probably give away as prizes. Won't we? What an incredible situation. I love the idea that when we're yabbering away, someone's actually doing a genuinely interesting job, Peter.
Starting point is 00:19:02 I bet he stinks of latex. Oh, big time. I bet he stinks of latex. Oh, big time. I bet. Because I remember when the Eurovision Botherers Lordy, the Finnish rock band, came in to XFM on The Breakfast Show. Were they in costume? I mean, they were in costume,
Starting point is 00:19:15 but you sort of think that they're going to smell of something, like death, but they smell of latex. They just smell of latex. It's brilliant. How can they be bothered to be in that shit all the time? It's so sweaty. and yeah but they know what they are they're lordy for crying out loud and like you know they didn't they won it as well they won the eurovision mate
Starting point is 00:19:34 yeah exactly yeah that's what i always think that about the kind of death the death metal scene like it's such an incredible amount of effort in it to think about being in the death metal band right all the admin you've got to do you've got um you've got to down tune all your guitars you've got to sing with that guttural stuff you've got to wear the makeup you've got to wear the heavy clothes you've got to find cavonia or strepsils to maintain your voice it's just not worth the effort it's not you'd rather be in a much rather be in a dreamy indie pop band yeah but then there's a lot of guitar pedals that's true you've got to carry a lot of guitar pedals in haven't you that is very true um there's another email here from brent who just takes us on a little trip down memory lane i quite like this
Starting point is 00:20:18 one um brett says um he's from la by the way he says He's an Anglophile in LA. He says, Hello, Luke and Pete. Long time Ramble listener. Recent Luke and Pete show convert. I've begun listening in possibly the most deranged way possible, keeping up with new episodes as they come out while going through the back catalogue starting with episode one in between releases until I get caught up.
Starting point is 00:20:43 It's just baffling. I mean, the show's baffling anyway i have no idea how you're going to get through that uh he says in light of my recent journey i thought it would be fun to remind you both of some of the hot topics from the first dozen or so episodes in summer 2017 of what was then luke and pete's summer i'm glad to hear the jinglers remain the same looking forward to battery brands making their pod debut uh so he says the highlights for him are um pete's bare naked ladies one week impression that that ran and ran didn't it can you still do it yeah it's been that's not too bad i think that was i think that's one of the best ones i've ever
Starting point is 00:21:19 done it's not too bad it felt like all i needed all i needed was three years off it sounds like felt like you actually pressed the button for the song um bombs of all sorts including pete's internet simulation of an atom bomb being dropped on his childhood home worst family dinner conversations that's of course when the man the boy called his mum a greedy cunt and forest hermits from around the world motion sickness lots of poo stories brackets listener driven so uh listener drivel there we go i don't know what made me think of this but i was on a wikipedia um rabbit hole the other day and um there is i was this is massively alan parker i know but yeah forgive me i was i was reading about the vietnam war
Starting point is 00:22:05 right and i started reading about people who had won the medal of honor um in the vietnam war right you know what the medal of honor is it's not the victoria cross basically great video game yeah but it's basically like the victoria cross yeah so um you know it's for outstanding bravery it normally it's normally um cool cool gunwork posthumously and that kind of stuff but right i estimate looking at a list of medal of honor winners in vietnam right i reckon about 40 of them won it for throwing themselves on a grenade and saving the lives of their colleagues right just constantly throwing themselves on grenades just every other person that seems to have won it did it in that way posthumously presumably yeah yeah i've got a
Starting point is 00:23:00 little spoiler alert pete throw yourself on a grenade it's not gonna be the easiest thing in the world to survive but what if you squeeze it really tight i think they just used to dive on it yeah what if you squeeze it really tight i don't know yeah i mean that would work that is going to get you the um victoria cross but i'd consider putting a dinner plate or a or a dinner tray over the top yeah well the dinner tray that he used to hit that hippo in the face. Exactly, yeah, that sort of thing. My friend died from a paint grenade in paintball once. He did, I promise you, he honestly did.
Starting point is 00:23:36 I think that would probably do some damage as well, wouldn't it? Yeah, but I don't think it was that pleasant for him. But it just made me think that I was really stunned at how often that seems to have happened. To me, if someone said to me, how often has that happened ever? I'd probably say, I don't know, five? Well, it happened about 200 times in one war.
Starting point is 00:23:56 Jesus Christ. I mean, what a sacrifice. If I brought the mood down. A little bit. I've been thinking about when it all kicks off, because it is going to kick off, isn't it? I really wouldn't... I don't want to go to war, Luke.
Starting point is 00:24:11 I think about this sort of thing a lot. I just can't be fucking arsed with it. You won't be doing anything. What are you going to do? I'll be doing stuff. You'll be a forces sweetheart. Doing podcasts for the troops. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:24 You see, Donald Trump the other other day in one of the more deranged uh speeches and there's been a lot of them um yeah he was talking about uh he just went off on one about world war three he said if you make me president i'll have a world war three and everyone started cheering and he went and you are gonna have world war three by the way you're definitely gonna have it what do you mean you're gonna have it you're involved well no we won't because he's got heel spurs, isn't he? Oh, yeah, true. Yeah, that's actually a really good point.
Starting point is 00:24:48 It was an absolutely deranged effort by him. But anyway, that's another story. Let me bring it back by, just before we go reading this last email out, I want to read this email out from Sean from Whitley Bay, who's a regular emailer. Not the same Sean who does props for all those amazing TV shows. But anyway, Sean from Whitley Bay, who's a regular emailer. Not the same Sean who does props for all those amazing TV shows. But anyway, Sean from Whitley Bay says,
Starting point is 00:25:09 All right, lads, your recent chat about the Korean TV show Physical 100 reminded me of a show from the mid-2000s that currently seems to be available to watch precisely nowhere. It was a cross between Superstars, where Kevin Keegan famously had a nasty bike crash, and Bruce Parry's tribe. Do you remember tribe, Peter? Oh, I really don't. So Bruce Parry's like this explorer, and he goes and lives with indigenous tribes all around the world.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Ducky, ducky. Yeah, yeah, I get you. So BBC's Last Man Standing and Last Woman Standing were iterations of a reality documentary TV series that took British athletes of varying disciplines around the world to compete in the same local sport or sorry some local sports with various peoples and tribes so for example they would go to mongolia and do mongolian wrestling or stick fighting kick fighting you know all that kind of stuff there were various races as well from canoeing to buffalo cart drag racing to endurance foot races with homemade shoes and soles made from tires it was a great show that showed that the love of sport competition is
Starting point is 00:26:09 universal among communities throughout the world it pitted some competitive high-level athletes against each other in completely unknown and often dangerous sports and it often saw them brutally beaten by locals as they were amateurs compared to people who had been training for said sport all their lives um and he goes on to say, it was absolute appointment TV in our house and the Wi-Fi I have access to, and I regularly lament its disappearance, especially since I'm a huge fan of a niche sport. I once played swamp soccer in 2009.
Starting point is 00:26:35 Oh, nice. Disc golf with Frisbees and even a bit of pro wrestling, but I gave it up because it hurts too much. And this show is right up my street. If you remember it, I hope it's as fondly as I do. If you don't remember it, it's worth seeking out. Keep up the good work. Sean.
Starting point is 00:26:49 Now, I do remember this show. I vaguely remember an episode where before they did some Mongolian wrestling, and these guys are all Westerners. I think they're all British. They went to Mongolia to do this Mongolian wrestling against local wrestlers. There was like a ceremony the night before. And it was kind of in that period of time, Pete, when a lot of reality TV stuff was still quite genuinely interesting and innovative
Starting point is 00:27:15 because it wasn't full of wannabe famous people, if you know what I mean. It was quite experimental. And I'm sketchy on the detail here, but I think I'm right in saying that the guys who were ready to do this Mongolian wrestling the night before there was a ceremonial dinner and they were served up and if you're squeamish
Starting point is 00:27:33 or not happy about this kind of stuff then please tune out now they were served up a meal of dog and a lot of them had a real problem with it and so it became a bit of a thing, like a couple of them were just like alright if that's a local custom
Starting point is 00:27:49 I don't want to be rude, I'll get stuck in and a lot of them were really kind of vexed about it and that's the only thing I remember other than that they were just absolutely had their arses handed to them at Mongolian Wrestling but it was a good show if anyone can seek it out on a torrent it's probably Pete Donaldson I reckon so Mongolian wrestling. But it was a good show. If anyone can seek it out on a torrent,
Starting point is 00:28:06 it's probably Pete Donaldson. I reckon so, if anyone's uploaded it. Do you remember it? I don't really remember it, no. I don't really remember it. Is it your cup of tea? Yeah, I think so. But it's usually men and women who are much fitter than me doing bits.
Starting point is 00:28:21 That's everyone, isn't it? It just makes you feel bad about yourself. Are you still doing your sprints? Not doing my sprints no how long did that last oh about three days i'm still doing the line bike mate i rode home earlier yeah are you doing a lot of line biking you should get shares i was well it was um i used a line back today because I thought I'll get back because we've got a new puppy and Sarah's been alone with the puppy over the weekend
Starting point is 00:28:50 so I'll get home as quick as I can because it takes a lot of work. I was like, oh, maybe I should do this free unlocking subscription thing. That's what I do, yeah. Like £8.99 a month, fucking. Yeah, but it's a pound to unlock every time. Fucking hell.
Starting point is 00:29:09 What, so every time you use it, it's just a pound? Well, no, so you, I mean, the point being that if you, if you did a subscription for nine quid a month, if you take more than nine trips in that calendar month, you've saved money.
Starting point is 00:29:19 It's worth it, right, okay. And then you can do a line pass, which is five quid for 60 minutes. Mm, yeah. So, it's worth doing, but you can't a line pass, which is five quid for 60 minutes. Mm, yeah. All right, fair. It's worth doing, but you can't ride a line bike back to Southend, you maniac.
Starting point is 00:29:30 No, I couldn't. Where were you riding it to? Just the station? Just the station. Amateur stuff. Oh, I remember, actually. Pete, do you remember, before we go,
Starting point is 00:29:38 do you remember, my first ever experience on a line bike was when you and me were invited to a meeting at the BBC, and we got the time wrong and we thought
Starting point is 00:29:48 it was three o'clock but it was two o'clock and then we realised like 20 to two and we had to get there quick and we had to get from where we were to where they were
Starting point is 00:29:56 and you were like we'll get a line bike but I had to cycle it and you had to sit on the back. It was really kinky stuff. It was a lovely scene. Absolutely lovely scene. It was carnage and we got to was a lovely scene. Absolutely lovely scene. It was carnage.
Starting point is 00:30:05 And we got to the BBC like 20 minutes late, really sweaty. The head of BBC podcast. Exactly. And that was, well, we've never had a commission. We've never worked before or since.
Starting point is 00:30:16 No, exactly. But yeah, I think we did very well. It's hard to sort of be really happy with your performance, like making up a lot of time that you fucked up in the first place. It's, yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:27 You know you're not going to get, you know they're not going to look past it. No, exactly. It's like the biased broadcasting corporation. The biased broadcasting. Yeah.
