The Luke and Pete Show

Another week and another themed episode from the chaps, as this time around they get stuck into wordy matters, including yet more children with inadvisable names. We find time for more Steve McQueen and Paul Newman chat too, as well as a decent treatise on Pete's specialist subject - getting drunk at home in your underwear.There's also good news for the statue enthusiasts among you, so stay tuned for Mencarta.Further Reading:The Bruce Lee Statue in Mostar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_Bruce_Lee_(Mostar)The Dutch Reach: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/news/the-dutch-reach-how-opening-car-door-like-the-dutch-could-save-lives-cycling/Towering Inferno trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsRnQQpklPMLeave us a review, and a rating on iTunes and don't forget to subscribe!Socials: @lukeandpeteshowEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

It's The Body Show! Luke and Pete received an inordinate amount of emails about the human body this week and so decided to group them together into one handy to listen to episode. But before they get into the nuts and bolts of that, there's the small matter of Japanese films Pete's been watching and Luke's new kitchen.More oddly-shaped chests are explored as well as the acupuncturing of a dog, but, and here's a warning, this episode also contains a pretty horrific email about the compromising of a man's scrotum. A scrotal episode if you will.Further reading:Pectus Excavatum: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pectus_excavatumKing of Prussia, Pennsylvania: https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attractions-g52930-Activities-King_of_Prussia_Pennsylvania.htmlDomesday Reloaded: http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/domesday/story Leave us a review, and a rating on iTunes and don't forget to subscribe!Socials: @lukeandpeteshowEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

We start episode 33 with an insight into Pete 'Donny/PD' Donaldson's utterly confusing approach to timekeeping before running through his recent trip to Krakow in Poland, a city in which he managed to offend a local tour guide with his behaviour in a famous salt mine. And yes, you did read that sentence correctly.Also in this episode we hear from a listener who has been through a chest procedure that baffles the mind and soul and another friend of the show who has executed possibly the most mind-numbing job imaginable. And make sure you stick around to the very end because we head into Mencarta this week with an entry from the purest and deepest depths of hell.Suggest ways in which we can avoid hell: [email protected], and review our heavenly podcast on iTunes or wherever you get your pods!

Pete starts episode 32 with a tremendously entertaining actor-based error and after that there's plenty more robot and AI chat following last week's discussion that kicked off 2018. We also take some time to read out your suggested riddle solutions, there are some more great non-translatable foreign words and someone almost kills a Shih Tzu with kindness. But don't worry, no animals were harmed in the making of this episode.Suggest things for us to do here: [email protected], and leave us a kind review on iTunes or wherever you get your pods!

Holy Macaroni! We're in the future!It's 2018 and, as you can probably imagine, this fact dominates proceedings in episode 31. We discuss futuristic things that may or may not happen, Pete interprets his own dreams in quite a simple (and predictable) way, there's a heartfelt tribute to one of the world's great metallic birds and we touch on Paul Newman and Steve McQueen.Before we chip off for another week there's also a truly astonishing Mencarta, so make sure you stick around for that, too.Start 2018 off right and leave us a nice review on the Podcasts app or wherever you get your pods, and send us futuristic ideas here: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

A big hearty Christmas-load of glad tidings to all of our listeners as we release episode 30 of The Luke and Pete Show on Baby Jesus' birthday, no less.This week, words in other languages that have very specific meanings, Pete's insight into how to become a good continuity announcer on the telly, playing Trivial Pursuit and an incredible, and very specific, emergency call.Send glad tidings to us and our king: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pete is back from his charity trip to Kenya, we hear from more listeners who have 'ruined Christmas', a man who struggled to make jokes while learning English, and an unfortunate soul who self-medicates with onions and insists that it works better than any more traditional remedy.There's also time for some more Booze Britain chat from a man very close to the franchise and a blast from the past in the shape of turn-of-the-century gross out series Jackass.Tell us of your Johnny Knoxville-esque daredevil exploits: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this week's offering to appease the podcast gods, our eponymous ne'er do wells take in such disparate subject as flat earth rocketmen, wombats and groundhogs, the insect sting pain scale and yet more post office employee tales to savour.Elsewhere Pete continues to bang the 'speciality video' drum and there is an emailer willing to indulge him, we hear a story about someone who actually won a car in an airport raffle and spend a good amount of time talking about Pete's upcoming trip to Kenya to do some charity work that he doesn't like to talk about.Send charity our way by emailing [email protected]  Hosted on Acast.

This week in your ever so slightly late and ever so slightly postal themed Luke and Pete Show, the boys discuss a truly ridiculous situation in the Post Office, a man whose eyes are frankly high maintenance, a postman in a spot of bother and much more. We also induct a new Mencartee, and find time to talk about our favourite alcohol-themed reality shows. Boozy.Toast us: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this week's fifty minutes of daftness, we learn of Luke Moore's love of herbivorous mammals, the life-size cabbage patch doll who lives in his house, and Pete learns of a frightful eyesore of a building in Lebanon. Get in touch via @lukeandpeteshow on twitter, and [email protected] for all your correspondence, which for obvious reasons we can't live without. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pete has made a truly disturbing discovery about the very bones that hold literally all of our bodies together, there's some decent discussion about airports and the presence of strange car raffles within them, some more British awkwardness and lots more including more from our egg correspondent.It's getting to the point now where we don't need to tell you that we have a bit about off-brand batteries in there also, isn't it? Make of that what you will.Spark us off, be a part of it: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

First up, Luke has locked himself out of the house. After that all of you, literally all of you, are sleepwalkers or so it seems. As a result, we trawl through a load of your tales of the mischief you've all got up to while unconscious. There's also time to explore the legal precedent for committing horrific crimes while asleep and subsequently getting away with it.Basically it's a crime/sleepwalking special. Do us a favour and, if you like the show, make sure to hit 'subscribe' and leave us a review. Both Luke and Pete would really appreciate it! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Luke and Pete are joined by a special guest as writer and broadcaster Rick Edwards pops in to the studio to discuss his new book Science(ish) and whatever other nonsense us and you, the listener, can throw at him. Expect talk about British awkwardness, a fair bit about the science behind movies and why Rick is unlikely to ever become friends with celebrated director Christopher Nolan.Oh, there's also plenty of battery chat (obviously), the possibility that we're all living in a huge simulation, and a bit about why Rick has no sense of smell... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on the loosest show in town our eponymous heroes follow up on last week's battery chat with several of your example cells, and bloody enjoyable they are too. Elsewhere we chat Ridley Scott, provincial towns, sleepwalking with bizarre consequences and the natural coating one can find on an egg. Oh, and a Luke and Pete Show legend actually makes a contribution to It's Been as well and it's all very exciting... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The boys are in a brand new studio and have headaches due the tightness of their headphones. You'll be pleased to know though, dear listener, that they both press on regardless. A pair of true pros.On the agenda this week - CDT teachers with kit cars, sanding one's own hands by accident, a visit to Hamburg, odd brands of batteries and a truly horrific version of the It's Been theme sent in by a listener. Trust us, it really has to be heard to be believed.There's also loads more besides, including your emails about how weepy you all are. Bless your hearts.Make us cry: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Luke and Pete are back and Pete is dressed as Edward Scissorhands, an outfit that garnered him great feedback from none other than Tim Burton himself, Luke has been to the Crystal Maze and there's plenty of tim to get stuck into Richard Gere, obviously.If that's not enough to sink your teeth into, we have an email about a family Christmas dinner that will make you question the very concept of the nuclear family and Pete fills us in on Japanese mummies. To send us pictures of your own self-mummification, or anything else: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pete's back! That should be all you need to know really, but in episode 19 you can also hear all about the following subjects:- Samurai swords- Dads- Calling up communal phones in rural Ireland- Encryption- Ann Summers- Traditional Japanese hotelsIf you can't find something in that lot to enjoy then there really is no hope for you, dear listener!Fill us in on what we're missing: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

A generation-defining episode, a coming-of-age if you will. We've hit 18! Lots to get excited about here including a very special guest familiar to those who attend the Luke and Pete parish regularly.But don't fear all the change, there's still plenty of old favourites to sink your teeth into - IT'S BEEN, crap jobs (including a monumental 'I quit' story), Mencarta and lots, lots more.Validate us, give us new ideas or generally moan about something here: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pete announces to the world his catchphrase and then tells us all about the best dog ever (apart from possibly the one last week that was friends with a dolphin).The boys then take us all through a Bad Job/Good Job email special from listeners, including a truly horrific washing machine delivery, before telling some tall tales about terrible jobs of their own.To offer us a terrible job, email here: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A dog has become friends with a dolphin in Ireland and it's a big hit with Pete. While all that's been going on, Luke's fitted a new car stereo (which is only marginally more interesting than it sounds) and there's more fierce debate about the calorie content of Guinness.And if all that wasn't enough, someone does something unspeakable with a big spoon and some chocolate pudding. And for once, it wasn't Pete.To send us chocolate pudding, or Guinness: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Luke's been to Atlanta checking out whale sharks, and while he was there Pete was back in the good ol' UK judging a dog competition with an 80s pop star despite never owning a dog in his entire life and not knowing any of the breeds. It's great work if you can get it.Meanwhile, the boys also talk about the origins of Lovehearts as well as everyone's favourite tongue-replacing parasite. And don't worry, these two things are unrelated.Bother us: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What did you learn in home economics at school? What did you have from the vending machine after you went swimming? But you know what they say, nostalgia isn't what it used to be, so there's also enough space in the Luke and Pete audio bubble to chat about your most awkward family dinner incidents and a mysterious and unsolved death in Australia in the 1940s which Pete appears to be obsessed with.To solve the crime or just let us know regrettable things you've said at the dinner table hit us up: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pete's done Luke a solid and prepared the show on his behalf, and if that doesn't worry you it really should.This time around the boys hang their chat on the loosest of themes but it means they take in such compelling subjects as marble racing, the geology of south London, shipwrecks (again), atomic bombs (yes really, yet again) and torture techniques.In retrospect, talking for ten minutes about torture isn't the most pleasant of listens but the world isn't all rainbows and unicorns buddy, so deal with it.To bring something to the table, say hello here: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There's enough chat about chocolate bars to sink a battleship (hopefully without an unlucky Uruguayan onboard), Luke tells a frankly quite horrendous story about a fox - so consider that fair warning - and, sticking with the nature theme, there appear to be frogs and ants playing host to a range of parasites.There's also enough time for a couple of listeners to chime in about one of 1999's most controversial films and yet another email about you know what. Please stop sending them in.Email us about literally anything else here though: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Luke's been to Cornwall and discovered a giant goat (with a huge penis) in an exceptionally well laid out museum, and Pete brings two vocal record-breakers to the table, with differing results.There's also time to hear about a truly horrific mental disorder courtesy of one of our listeners, and we round off the show by heading to sea for the newest Mencarta induction.We love hearing from you, so say hello here: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pete's been blowing up 'a surprisingly small amount of Hartlepool' with a make-believe nuclear bomb, Luke's talking about riding bikes in the 1980s a la Stranger Things, and the boys ruminate on etiquette when riding in the back of a taxi.Meanwhile they discover a real-life Tyrion Lannister, hear about a man who cleans his petrol station forecourt with a popular soft drink, and find out why lions are confused by chairs.Holler at your boys: [email protected]. Love. You. Mother. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A man who only eats roadkill dominates proceedings this week, as Pete spends a large part of the show complaining about his neck. It's starting to become a problem part of his body and he's also worried about curvature of the spine. Osteopaths, get in touch!Meanwhile, someone has discovered a creepy radio station that only broadcasts callsigns interspersed with a woman screaming, someone wants advice about higher education from a man who spent his university years playing bad computer games and listening to Macy Gray (Pete) and a man who is starting to not bother to dress himself properly (Luke). Also, John Titor, Dunkirk, a man getting drunk on a plane (again) and a load of other old rubbish. Deal with it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After the chaos of the email special, our two pals head back to more familiar territory and discuss recent visits to the good ol' United States of America and the Western Isles of Scotland, including the truly fascinating tale of St Kilda.There's also time to talk about the link between small people and anger issues, an impromptu Duncan Bannatyne set piece, and yet another truly bizarre YouTube channel courtesy of Mr Pete Donaldson.You, yes you, can contribute to this by getting in touch here: [email protected]. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After being bombarded with an extraordinary amount of correspondence, Luke and Pete decide to take you all on and get through as many as they can in one episode.So, expect chat about accidentally hitting animals in the car, motion sickness, virtual reality, animals in the army, living in the Vietnamese jungle for over 40 years and, among other things, the time Pete's Dad put a snooker table in the family's front room.To enable us further, get in touch here: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This time around the boys rake over the old 'barrel roll in a plane' conundrum again, because some conversations just will not die. They also find time to contemplate disappearing into the woods for 27 years, and a listener gets in touch claiming to have once superglued his own mouth shut.Again, something for everyone there. And if you can't find anything to like in that lot then stick around because there's also talk about the horrific public execution of an elephant. Say hello: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In the fifth instalment of Luke and Pete's Summer, the Little and Large of the podcasting world discuss museum exhibitions, knuckle dusters and setting fire to a million quid.They also find time - with the help of a listener - to rationally explain the existence of ghosts. So listen and never be frightened again. Of ghosts. I mean, there are other things to be scared of, of course. Like Pete. Say hello: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Why are a group of local men trying to find millions of missing rubles in a disused rocket mine in Russia? Why are loads of sheep knocking about an island off of the coast of Scotland with cardboard wings on their back?And how would Pete and his annoying older brother Luke survive if the world ended, and what skills would they need? PS We also talk about nut allergies and getting hit by lightning, so there's that. Thinking about it, we packed a lot into this one.Say hello: [email protected] And how are we still hearing about animals being used in war? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What the hell is a long egg? Are there secret items available for purchase at the world's best fast food restaurants? And why was Pete being fed like a bird by a man in a KFC?It's an impromptu food special, everyone! But don't worry, there's still time to read some more of your emails and talk at length about the great Buzz Aldrin. You'd honestly be quite careless to miss it!Download, subscribe, listen, enjoy! And say hello:[email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What happens when a bird flies into your house? Why is a man on the internet filming himself eating the oldest things he can find? What do you do when you use your step-dad's computer and discover something unspeakable? And how long can a chicken live without a head?Just four of the questions Luke and Pete attempt to answer in their own inimitable style for the sophomore episode of Luke and Pete's Summer. Strap yourselves in.Say hello! [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In the very first episode of Luke and Pete's Summer, our two eponymous heroes take a rip-roaring tour around Pete's favourite Japanese ghosts (including one that performs a horrendous act upon its victims), suggest the type of correspondence they want from you, the listener, and bring their ideas to the table for an all-new encyclopedia CD-Rom, including a frankly ridiculous incident that befell the poor people of Boston in the early 20th century.Say hello!
