Episode 104: Clowning about

Remember when that guy swore at his mum during Christmas dinner? Well, another listener gets in touch with a similar bout of behaviour along the same theme, while another is getting stuck in an isolated toilet block in eastern Europe. Meanwhile, a man is hit in the face by a seal carrying an octopus, a listener has a present from NASA brought home from work by father, and Pete has been taken aback by a hotel in Macau.Just the usual then, something for everyone. And if none of that takes your fancy, stick around for chat about the great heavyweight champion Jack Johnson, and an 80 year old Japanese DJ (separately).Make yourself known: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 103: Antibiotics from India

A man has attempted to flag down a plane at Dublin airport, and miraculously, that man is not Pete Donaldson. He is however on hand to comment upon it, as well as many other issues including rappers eating too many Cheetos, kidneys being transported for transplant, and how much he enjoyed his parents' recent trip down to see him in London.We also welcome a return for Crisp Andy, revisit the famous shower curtain debacle with a man that knows his onions, and marvel at Pete's resourcefulness at purchasing medication from the internet.Hit us up: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 102: Jimmy White's brother

Welcome back! Pete decides that there wasn't quite enough complaining last time round for his rather dour tastes and so we revisit Room 101 (which I suppose for the purposes of this episode will have to be referred to as Room 102), including airport behaviour, lion poo, the downing of spirits and horrendous punk roustabout GG Allin.Elsewhere, there's Pete getting fed with tongs (again), and two frankly remarkable tales about crisps and Jimmy White's brother (separately).Join us and instantly be one of the cool kids: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 101: Tale as old as time

As we speed down the conversational highway past a century of Luke and Pete Shows, episode 101 is a chance to pull into the rhetorical lay-by and take some time to assess which things in the world our listeners truly hate. That's right, in a format that is in no way ripping off a previously popular TV show, Luke puts all our listeners' gripes to Pete and the pathologically strange man decides whether or not they're worthy of entry into Room 101.Expect 3G mobile reception, Bono, Caffe Nero, Zooey Deschanel and much, much more to make an appearance.To send in a gripe of your own, or indeed to get in touch for any other reason, it's: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Hello everyone, we're back and we're talking about daily routines after Mark Wahlberg released his last week to much derision and confusion. There's more fuel to the crucifixion debate, and some time to dissect Pete's strongly held views on veganism and the environment.

Episode 98: Flavour Dad

Let episode 98 be forever known as the time we finally discovered the best Dads ever, including a tour manager for the Rolling Stones and a father who literally brought home 20 different types of milkshake for his kids to sample and rate. Incredible.We also hear about the most expensive brandy in history, village fetes, rhubarb, and why Pete had never been asked back to the BBC.

Episode 97: The podcast Mick Hucknall

Happy Monday! The Puke and Leek show is back once more for no other reason than we've got nothing better to do, so why not spend half an hour talking about bad poems at tube stations, Keith Moon, listeners stealing Techdecks and video game re-releases?We also take in a few other bits and pieces from *you* the listener, including an extremely insightful missive about crucifixion.

Episode 96: Fodcast ferfection

What better way to start a podcast than chat about the lesser-spotted Hard Fi? Staines' finest are piquing Mr Donaldson's interest for some reason or another, and after that we find it within ourselves to ruminate on Masterchef, white chocolate, chicken shops and plenty more besides.Before we dash, there's time to hear from the LAPS community about the Butterfly Effect and how it pertains to Kim Kardashian being famous. Fascinating stuff, and it also includes OJ Simpson.

Episode 95: A podcast kakistocracy

Ever wondered what a society run by the least qualified individuals would look like? Well, that's sort of what The Luke and Pete Show is, isn't it? And it's called a kakistocracy. Anyway, we're diving straight into this episode with talk about the nuances of the Jagger family, and rapidly moving into Maplin-esque territory by lamenting the loss of electronics giant Dick Smith.Elsewhere there's chat about brandy, Jim Davidson, Oliver Reed, and of course more stuff listeners' Dads have 'borrowed' from work. Be a good egg and email us here: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 94: A parachute jump without a parachute is just a jump

We're back, just like you said we would be. Let's get straight into it, shall we?A man enters the Guinness Book of World Records in a way that must surely mean he's tired of living, we discover a land beneath the sea that we never knew existed, someone directly related to an Arctic Monkey gets in touch, and Pete lets us in to the nightmare that is his subconscious.Elsewhere, there's emails on tips for visiting the UK, the building in London that Hitler purposely avoided bombing, and a famous man visiting Hartlepool for the fish n chips, when in fact he should be sticking to his tossed salads and scrambled eggs.

Episode 93: The bad boy of perverts

Good morning and welcome to this episode of The Luke and Pete Show, you're very welcome. Make yourselves comfortable. This time around, Pete kicks off proceedings by furnishing us with some Japanese pornographic film titles translated into English. It's actually funnier than you'd expect.After that we take in subjects as diverse as Duran Duran, saving animals from extinction, Ian Botham and, in an unrelated matter, hear from a listener with arguably the best Dad ever.To get in touch and expand on any of the subjects we've talked about, it's: [email protected].

Episode 92: Never arm-wrestle an actor

This time around, we hear from a listener who became involved in an ill-advised tete-a-tete with The Shield's Kenny Johnson, with quite spectacular results, learn of the tallest free-standing structure in the UK (Hint: It's not in London), and marvel at a truly horrific tree surgery injury.Meanwhile, there's Tony Hawk, storm chasing, frontmen with the best mic skills and much, much more. All packed into a commuting-friendly half hour.

Episode 90: A conspiracy theory special!

As promised, Pete delivers (sort of) on his Conspiracy Theory Special chat from shows gone by. What we mean by that is that he found a list of them in a magazine and would quite like to read them out. And the excitement only ramps up from there - in the second half of the show both Luke and Pete get tucked in to a tube of space food that their pal brought back from Russia. I mean, they have to translate the label first, but it can't be that bad can it? To send us into space, or give us any ideas: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 89: A husband's bulge

Finally, finally, FINALLY, Pilot Neil returns. We don't know where he's been or what he's been doing but the most important thing is that he's back. We weren't angry, just disappointed.Also on your all-new edition of The Luke and Pete Show - tales from Bruges, the most beautiful/perverted city in Belgium, pinball machines, elaborate record packaging and the time Pete was attacked by a police dog for no reason.

Episode 88: Why are we even friends?

Howdy everyone! We're back in our respective saddles and looking to artfully waste another half an hour of everyones' time with some more pith and nonsense. Huzzah!Pete's been to Korea and so joyfully regales us with tales of his travels, including of course the eating of octopus. A textbook Korean pursuit if ever there was one.Elsewhere, there's plenty of your emails including job interview chat, a laugh spared for Alex Jones' latest woes, and Pete wonders whatever happened to that most stalwart of 80s sights - the bullworker.To contact us: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 87: A knife made of pasta

The Luke and The Pete are getting to the age where they need to think about going grey and what that means for them. Apparently, Anthony Kiedis of Red Hot Chili Peppers takes affirmative action on that front. Who knew?Also, there's a revisiting of the 'posh people getting angry' trope, and we discover (via a listener) a man who can literally make a sharp knife out of just about anything at all, including clothing and pasta.

Episode 86: Kneeling in mud in the name of Liam Neeson

A police helicopter has been keeping Luke from watching TV. Pete's more interested in those little finger trick skateboards you used to get back in the day. What were they called? Did you ever become good at using one? If so, let us know.Meanwhile, we hear of a man who died by having a tortoise dropped on his bald head, and another, separate, man who had a rum old time working as Liam Neeson's stand in on a Martin Scorsese movie. Yes, really. Have you ever worked with Marty? Let us know!

Episode 85: Never eaten a crisp

Rejoice at the return of your favourite podcast featuring two men that know nothing about anything talking for half an hour. Pete's been to the seaside, and this time he managed to avoid getting sunburnt! He celebrates by talking for a bit about pants.We then move on to the well-trodden subjects of haircuts, how much one should pay, and finish off with a good dose of British awkwardness, something both Luke and Pete know very well. There's time before we go to hear two incredible stories too - one about a man who is phobic of crisps, and another whose 'porn shed' burnt down in a 'horny inferno'.

Episode 84: Do you keep those spider monkeys in a van?

Why is Sir Paul McCartney so odd? And, while we're at it, why is Ringo Starr also so odd? Any advice greatly appreciated. This time around, we break bread over the differences between the Japanese and Korean languages, marvel at possibly the worst job interview experience of all time, hear a Mencarta, and find out that, in the 70s, people that used to go door-to-door selling spider monkeys.

Episode 83: Careful of the laburnum

We start this episode as every podcast should begin - with Tom Jones impressions. After that we keep up the music theme by finding out that Pete has been hobnobbing with Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos and bonding with him over Graceland.Once we finally get past the name-drop section of the show there's time for an email from Brunei, some more weird baby names, a discussion about LiveJasmine, some more Jurassic Park chat and much, much more courtesy of you, the lovely listener.

Episode 82: Next stop, Hither Green!

Tune in this time around for Luke and Pete reminiscing about puncture repair kits, before marvelling at how strange and unreliable the passing of time and capturing of memories can be. Don't worry though, we get on to much more firm and familiar ground shortly after that as Pete waxes lyrical about how he hates leg day at the gym.What's more, you beautiful listeners step up to the plate with tales of Don King, ejecting from a jet in the middle of a thunderstorm, and much, much more.

Episode 81: The It's Been World Record

We start today's proceedings by talking about a one hour documentary on Japanese trains, including men fashioning a light fitting 'the old fashioned way', whatever that means. It's not as boring as it sounds though, and before you know it we've moved on to camel urine anyway, so that's a plus.Elsewhere on your all-new episode of The Luke and Pete Show, there's more sodium-based tom foolery, actors that didn't act more than once and a big end-of-show finale as Pete attempts a physical and mental feat that any sane man wouldn't even consider...To contribute: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 80: Fast food rigidity

We open proceedings this time around with a tale about a stork that ended up costing a charity a £2000 phone bill, and things get slowly more bizarre from there.The two main takeaways are, well, er, takeaways and names it is absolutely impossible to call a baby in 2018. We round this entire derring-do off with a good look at Jackass-inspired injuries and how they're not particularly conducive to enjoying yourself at a music festival.

Episode 79: Johnny Eggs

We think it's episode 79, but we're not sure, and Pete is still sunburnt. It's his own fault. It's sent him a bit mad, and one minute we're discussing new show ideas, and the next we're talking about bringing a different animal into the studio every week. Heady stuff.On today's show we solve the great Cadbury's discontinued chocolate bar riddle, find out about eggs that haven't had a shell formed around them, waste pipes, Two Fat Ladies, and a horrible shit who almost blew up his entire school. It wasn't big, but it was actually quite clever in a way.Participate: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 78: Fly away Peter, fly away Paul

Straight off the bat, The Pete is accusing The Luke of wearing Bermuda shorts, an accusation that shouldn't be taking lightly. After that we hear of Peter Crouch and a kids' illusion that confuses The Pete to this day.There's time for actors that have appeared in one movie and then never again, the pleasing sound of things hitting bald mens' heads, and another love letter to Anthony Bourdain. And make sure you stick around for a Pete Donaldson special story about a blocked drain and a shower curtain. You *will not* regret it.Got a tall tale? Or even a moderately short one?

Episode 77: Candy cigarettes and camel urine

The Pete is back from working the Isle of Wight Festival and is sunburnt. He's also sporting a rather snazzy Transformers tattoo. And, having managed to perform a bungee jump and survive it with both retinas intact, he's also in a chipper mood.He and The Luke discuss more weird sports team names, find out about a 19th century beer flood, hear of a school brawl involving over 100 people and an irate PE teacher, and discover some fart-based embarrassment. All in all, a pretty packed 35 minutes or so.

Episode 76: Chaos on the central line

Highlander actor Christopher Lambert is apparently almost blind. Did you know that? Why would you, eh? Luke certainly didn't, not until Pete told him. Yes, the boys are back and they're talking yet more nonsense, which let's face it is the very thing they do best.There's music chat, including Neil Young, Van Morrison and Pete's baes The Darkness. Did you know he almost joined their five-a-side team once?Elsewhere, plenty of your anecdotes including a near-dust up on the London Underground's central line, and much, much more.To tell us about public transport and whatever else you fancy: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Moore and Donaldson get back in their easy chairs, light a pipe each and start ruminating on the world around them once more, in episode 75 of your Luke and Pete Show.This time around there is time to talk about physical health, leading on to the fact that Pete has a charity bungee jump lined up. In a somewhat related matter, chat progresses to American candy, including Pete's favourites and a terrible memory he has of having a row in M+Ms World with an ex-girlfriend.And, before they nick off again, they squeeze in plenty of your emails - including badly edited movies, weird sports team names and lots more.

Episode 74: Excuse me, is that my farting jar?

As the title suggests, in episode 74 we hear about one of the more bizarre habits adopted by people in England in the 17th century. But before that there's plenty to get our teeth into, including a new jingle or two, a Mencarta entry for the ages and a man having a chip implanted into his hand with mixed results.There's also plenty more where that came from - we revisit sex education classes, Kathy Burke, and lots more.Let's be having you: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

The chaps are back, and on your particularly chaotic latest edition of The Luke and Pete Show, we have a truly eclectic range of topics to discuss. There's Fathers4Justice, more Anthony Bourdain chat, craft ale, more intellectual property theft from our listeners, and a revisiting of the white-hot National Treasures debate.And if that wasn't enough, we also find time to chat about two of the UK's specialist subjects: anxiety and uncool musicians.

Episode 71: The fine line between a life hack and actual fraud

We're back. Pete's brought along a new jingle or two and Luke has brought along himself. This time around, there's a bit of film chat (Alex Garland's Annihilation and Woody Harrelson's Lost in London Live), a kid that keeps fainting (not Luke or Pete), and today's musical offering is brought to you by Geri Halliwell and the Wu Tang Clan (separately).Meanwhile, a listener gets in touch to offer a 90s life hack that is basically theft, and there's lots more besides.To send us your suggestions for life hacks, or anything else for that matter, it's [email protected].

Greetings to you, beloved Luke and Pete Show community!

Pete's seen Solo and quite liked it, and on the subject of movies we also take the time to talk a bit about the new Freddie Mercury biopic which is hitting cinemas soon. Still on a theme, there's also a departure over to Will Smith and how he nabbed the Fresh Prince gig.When it comes to your contributions, dear listeners, you excel yourselves yet again with tales of potentially the worst driver ever, as well as an extremely welcome missive from Medellin in Colombia. There's loads more, too! Give it a spin. Go on, give it a little spin. Let's have a chinwag: [email protected] ***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 67: A voice on a stick

On this episode of your all-new The Luke and Pete Show, we take time out to imagine what it would be like if The Pete wasn't 'a voice on a stick' but a BT engineer, sent out to make internet happen in your abode. Predictably, results are 'mixed'.After that, chat rapidly progresses into talk of Brian Blessed, what it takes to become a national treasure and presenters who in real life are shits, and of course plenty of stories from The Luke and Pete Show Community, including misbehaviour at school, the accidental and tragic death of a cat, and a dreadfully-timed erection.For all your usual chitter-chatter, it's [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 66: Do not exit your vehicle

School stories aplenty this time around as the great and good of The Luke and Pete Show community deliver us some of their most cringeworthy tales, we try to separate art from the artist, and there's an opportunity to imagine a young Pete gaily skipping through a horse's field on the way to school every morning.And if that wasn't enough, we talk gorillas, farting (again), and possibly the worst parenting story of the year, involving a car, a toddler and a coalition of cheetahs. Seriously, we're ticking every box.Tell us tall tales here: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 65: Well, it used to be a dog

When is a dog not a dog? That's a burning question we answer early doors on episode 65 of The Luke and Pete Show, before Pete waxes lyrical about birthdays, birthday parties and the fascinating world of speedrunning of video games.The contributions from you the dear listeners this week extend to unkillable men, embarrassing farts and much, much more.

Episode 64: The prodigal son returns (to Hartlepool)

This time around on your common-or-garden Luke and Pete Show, The Pete has been back to the motherland unannounced to see his dear old mother and to annoy his father with Tivo-based tricks. Meanwhile, Luke's been for afternoon tea, the boys show yet more love for the great Carly Rae Jepsen, and there's a listener reporting an erroneous shaving of facial hair.Elsewhere, a listener quite literally ruins Easter for a group of children and there's more curious French behaviour, this time from the 16th century.To infiltrate us: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 63: Abducted by Concorde

Pilot Neil is back in the Luke and Pete Show cockpit and he doesn't disappoint, the boys get excited about terrible 90s boy bands (most notably the great E-Male) and Pete reveals yet another remarkable childhood skill, arguably more impressive than eating frozen sausages and not dying.We also delight in emails about party tricks that have gone wrong, Pete's pet hate (ankles) and a Mencarta involving a mass poisoning in southern France.

Episode 62: Little Pipples Donaldson

This episode contains all the S words: snooker, The Simpsons, and sex education. And speaking of the latter, a listener gets in touch with perhaps the most embarrassing, cringeworthy and awkward situation a young student could find themselves in.And, as is becoming a Luke and Pete Show custom, Pete reveals rather too much information about himself as a child. There's also time to hear from Detective George from Baltimore who gives his top stakeout tips, and we learn about what sounds like the world's best apple.

Episode 61: There's a toad in my suitcase, what am I gonna do?

This time around we delight in some truly embarrassing school stories, including possibly the worst threat of violence ever and an ill-advised Nazi-themed tactic to impress a girl, we deliver a couple of well-overdue Duncan Bannatyne updates (one of which the doesn't show the big man in the best light) and we hear of a particularly hardy South African toad.Elsewhere, Luke's been to Munich, and in an unrelated issue there's a bit on everyone's favourite rodent - the humble (and massive) capybara.Why not share in this nonsense? [email protected] to become an accomplice!***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 60: A man in a rocking chair

Pete's been to the good ol' US of A and admits that he is essentially the worst travel companion ever, as well as recounting a frankly quite horrific story of his AirBnB involving a random stranger in a rocking chair. In addition to that we listen to some of your stories about, among other things, attempts to solve the now infamous Bo Bedingfield Mystery, a few more terrible band names, and a quite underrated story about Noel Edmonds. Again. You can't keep Edmonds out of this show.To get involved in this foul jamboree, email us: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 59: A hippo's dinner

Ever wondered what it's like to be swallowed by a hippo? Well, wonder no more as your boys have found a story of a man who experienced it. We'll be honest, it doesn't sound that nice.Also, everyone's favourite drill sergeant, R Lee Ermey, has sadly passed away, although that death wasn't hippo-related you'll be pleased to hear. And if that wasn't enough, there's more plane chat, including how you can still visit the cockpit, and we receive a missive about possibly the stupidest driver of all time.There's also a mystery to be solved, so listen out for that and send all your theories into [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 58: The Mothpocalypse

Pete's been admiring Beyoncé from afar, Luke's been admiring Duncan Bannatyne from afar (again) and we settle the 'Can you land in a wingsuit without a parachute?' debate once and for all, courtesy of a stuntman.Elsewhere, giant moths v a tennis racket in a battle of wits for the ages, possibly the world's most terrifying sniper and lots, lots more.

Episode 57: When meat fell from the sky

This week, we hear more about not only school trips, but school visits from celebrities including a truly heart-wrenching tale about a listener that missed out on an encounter with Kriss Akabusi.There's also time for a truly depressing domestic tale, a *magnificent* mishearing of a school staple that you won't want to miss, and a weird period WHEN MEAT FELL FROM THE SKY. Also, listeners to this damn show have started using our email address to sign up to wifi all over the world, something we naturally support and endorse. Keep it interesting though, yeah? There's only so many Virgin East Coast Trains emails we can realistically receive.At the risk of encouraging this nonsense, it's: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 56: Duncan Bannatyne and his favourite eggs

Still on a high from a visit to southern Italy, Luke's started reading Roberto Saviano's Gomorrah. Meanwhile, Pete takes a trip down memory lane and treats us all to his favourite Red Dwarf moments. Conversation then understandably takes a trip to the dark side courtesy of Craig 'Dave Lister' Charles' penchant for grumble mags and crack.Before we depart, we of course read out some of your missives, including one in particular about left-handedness, ruminate on what Duncan Bannatyne has been up to, and then open the creaking door to Mencarta to hear about a man who made quite a bad mistake at work, yet miraculously survived to tell the tale.Send your proton beams here: [email protected]***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 55: Misplacing the Door to Hell

Our eponymous heroes, The Luke and The Pete, are back fresh from Naples and talking all things Italian (pizza, sculpted eyebrows etc) as well as car rentals, why Pete insists on recording the occasional podcast in bare feet - something that Luke finds completely unacceptable - and the strange Donaldson family trait of giving sausages at Easter in lieu of chocolate eggs.Elsewhere, there's Turkmenistan's Door to Hell and where not to find it, some clarification on transubstantiation, and dreams about Mr Blobby.
