Deafened by an oil drum

Pete is back from his latest overseas sojourn and, let's be fair, he's walked right into the middle of an absolute shitshow. Soho is deserted, save for a few blokes wandering around taking photos of the deserted streets, and poor old Luke doesn't know when he's going to get to see his pal again next!But, nevertheless, we press on regardless. Today, there's chat about online dates, a listener in Japan has found money on the floor, and a drunken couple have taken a bath in some beer.

Return of the Hobgoblin

Back in April of 2009, three men were unceremoniously ejected from their London-based radio show and asked to never return. Something they'd said on the airwaves? Possibly. Or was 'the man' worried about the unwavering grassroots support (dare we say love) for the trio amongst the swell of G20 protesters that stamped past their window that spring morning?

Jack’s stepped into Pete’s shoes once more, and has joined Luke for one final guest episode of the Luke and Pete show.On today’s show, we’re talking Valentine’s Day plans (or lack thereof), how to get a million subscribers on Youtube and why Jack’s grandad can’t resist shouting ‘snowflake’ or ‘fake news’ at any opportunity.There’s also some discussion surrounding the age old conundrum of what to do when faced with a blocked toilet, and Jack tells a story about accidentally shouting some expletives at an innocent old lady, after getting a little too invested in the Paranormal Activity films.Pete’s back on Monday to rejoin the usual shenanigans.

With Pete still in Japan, we’re kicking off Monday with special guest Jack Dean, also known as the driving force behind ‘JaackMaate’s Happy Hour’!Jack sat down to talk about what it’s like to be a Youtuber, why Norwich is way better than London and to justify his habit of dunking toast in his tea.There’s also more debate to be had about the ultimate beer, as this week the rather questionable suggestion of a ‘hospital beer’, courtesy of a listener, comes under scrutiny, and there’s some serious discussion about Sunday League Football, winding up elderly relatives, and finishing Escape Rooms.

Episode 199.87: Excellent trunks

E

There are some troubling developments reaching LAPS towers. Firstly, there have been some satanic killings in the New Forest, but secondly and arguably much more importantly Pete has been spending his Sunday night vaping. We all knew this day would come, and here it is. There's no way a man with such an interest in gadgetry could hold off forever. How troubled should you be? Listen in to find out.Elsewhere, there's spam, The Mousetrap, moths, Knives Out and loads more, including the types of sketches Pete used to get in trouble for at school.Come find us on Twitter @lukeandpeteshow or email us: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Remember Mr Frosty? No-one owned one. You only ever saw them on adverts. Did they even sell them? Pete wants to know if they had a strong blade inside in order to cut up the ice. He's going to look for one on eBay. Elsewhere we hear about a man who got a tattoo in front of someone famous but didn't realise, find out the best way to crack a nut, and run the rule over The Witcher. There's also a man who has bought more San Pellegrino than anyone else, and a few musical treats into the bargain. Tell us how you really feel: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.
