Join Luke Moore and Pete Donaldson for an unplanned half hour every Monday and Thursday as they pull on the threads of the universe, seeing where each fascinating one takes them. From ancient history and modern phenomena to the week's events and everything in between, The Luke and Pete Show is your chance to share in the fun of two men with time on their hands and a good idea of how to waste it.
 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Luke and Pete Show

Yes indeed, as the title suggests, Peter has been to the historic city of Leicester, home of his alma mater the iconic De Montfort University, to have a legendary night on the sauce with some old pals. "But where did he go? What hostelries did he patronise?" we hear you ask! Er, it was basically just O'Neill's. Did he have a brilliant time though? Tune in to find out.

Elsewhere, the lads marvel at the terminology and behaviour of self-described Pick Up Artists, there's incredulity at the range of spirits available to purchase in Aldi, and Battery Robot of course pops in to say hello and get a feed.

The Luke and Pete Show only serves up the longest of shrifts, and don't you forget it. To contribute to this travelling jamboree, get in touch here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com

On The Lash in Leicester

What has Pete been up to this week? Now there's a question to strike fear into the heart of men, but worry not! Because the answer basically extends to him cleaning some windows, going to see some stand up comedy for charity and typing some quite unusual things inton ChatGPT.

Also on today's episode, the lads also talk about the dot com boom, run the rule over their favourite type of labourer bigger boys, and then hear from a listener who's family member has been doing some truly demented things with food leftovers.

Toilet Plates

Pete tells Luke about his time volunteering on hospital radio before revealing that he was never given a slot on his university's radio station Demon FM ("music with a sting in its tail"), despite his obvious presenting talent. While we're on the subject, we hear from a listener who called into a local radio station competition and totally embarrassed himself in a bid to win £1000.

Elsewhere, we hear yet again from the insatiable Battery Robot, and Ian Holloway pops into the studio for a chat!

The Radio Doctor Will See You Now

The sheer range of subjects covered on today's episode boggle the mind. Today's topics include, but are not limited to, Pete's Christmas cake recipe, how to beat a bear in a fight, things that are dangerously poisonous, Roman emperors, Russell Crowe, and unwelcome presences on a kidney.

Cyst to Kidney, done deal!

It seems strange to say it but we now live in a world where one can have high-quality gallium delivered to one's home the very next day. Is Pete taking advantage of that societal development? You'll have to listen to find out.

Pete follows the gallium chat by challenging Luke to a snooker showdown, a challenge that Luke approaches like a bull being presented with a red rag. Elsewhere, there's Boston Dynamics chat, Battery Robot receives a battery from a very stern wife of a listener, and we ruminate on why there are such odd signs on the London Underground network.

Hot, fresh gallium delivered to your door

Behold! 'Tis the season for Christmas adverts! But why is the Coca-Cola one AI generated again? When will they learn, eh?

On today's episode the lads also talk Joe Rogan satire, presidential pardons and finally get to the bottom of the 1991 shooting of a council planning worker by the madman Albert Dryden, courtesy of a listener. 

Oh, and there's also breathing tips from the official Danish politician of the Luke and Pete Show. Obviously.

AI Slop Pardons

Welcome back to an all-new episode of the Luke and Pete Show! This time around the lads spend more time than planned on Jamie Oliver, including the truly quaint Turkey Twizzlers incident of 2005. There's also Halloween chat, pirate accents and their origin and Pete forgetting who Greta Thunberg is.

And, the question on everyone's lips is answered - is the Battery Robot getting fed today? All in all, it's classic LAPS fodder. Don't miss it!

Playing baseball with turkeys

In a development that will surprise absolutely no-one, Pete went into The City for a night out and was propositioned by a sex worker. Unfortunately for all concerned, his small talk made the situation considerably worse. And there’s more bad news - the bin situation in Leigh-on-Sea is out of control! And, what’s more, council are taunting local residents about it!

Elsewhere there’s good news for short kings everywhere because the lads find time to appoint a new official leg lengthener of LAPS. Form an orderly queue to be 6ft tall, everyone!

Chinese Takeaway with a Sex Worker

Bad news everyone: Peter has been sealing his car and now he absolutely stinks. No matter what he tries, he can't get the stink off. Luke tries to take his mind off of it by telling him the story about how the Israelis captured Adolf Eichmann. Does it work? Not really.

Elsewhere, the lads ruminate on the logistics of having an entirely different and secret extra family, before introducing their newest addition to the Luke and Pete Show community, Battery Robot! Who is he (presumably it's a he)? What is he like? And what does he have for his dinner? Tune in to find out...

Arise, Battery Robot!

Today we hear all about Luke's experience of the 2025 Great South Run. 10 miles of sheer hell in biblically bad conditions, he nonetheless just about survived to tell the tale. Pete is baffled as to why anyone would even try to run that far anyway, obviously.

Elsewhere, a listener discovers a neighbour with a Remembrance Day-theme doorbell, of all things, and our eponymous hosts also ruminate on why no-one seems to care about Covid anymore.

Sodden on the South Coast

What makes someone believe in a conspiracy theory? Luke and Pete try to get to the bottom of that increasingly important question on today’s show.

We then read your emails, which include another great example of someone’s job determining their career and a story from a listener who, like Luke, has had to battle with a neighbour who was trying to reserve their own parking space.
