Stak

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

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

Did you ever play manhunt as a kid? And did it ever end up with you almost dying on some mudflats? Those are just two of the questions Luke and Pete tackle on today's episode, alongside Pete's experiences of Christian camp, why certain types of Christian music is actually pretty good (eg The Congos) and the lads' ability to pass a GCSE these days (English? Maybe. Maths? Hell no.)

There's also three more attempts to enter a new cell into the Battery Daddy! Don't miss it!

Row, Fisherman, Row

The lesson to take from today's episode is that algorithms will be the death of us all. And what's more, no-one even seems to care. Luke and Pete discuss that, as well as the radicalisation of people they have worked with that used to be normal, before getting stuck into an amazing email about a prank that wasn't actually a prank.

This Isn't a Prank

Pete visits a notable lungman about his wreck of a body. Will he get the answers he so desperately needs? Will he get a new inhaler? And, more importantly, will the doctor peg him?

Despite all of his various ailments, Donny has also found the time to go out on the piss with our mate Vish, and he thinks getting a few beers inside him has probably helped to make him feel better as well. One thing that hasn't made him feel better though is the fact that his daughter is calling every other man apart from him Daddy. Oh dear.

Dysfunctional Breathing

Hello all! The game is afoot on this episode as the lads don their deerstalkers and whip out the magnifying glasses to investigate a blurry picture of Pete and Stephen Merchant at a wedding. Yep, you read that right. Not for the reason you think, they were actually more focused on reflecting the magnifying glasses onto Pete's shiny dome.

Also on the agenda today, Luke's attempt to outdrive Storm Amy, why Northern villages (apparently) used to holiday en masse, how we come to know Bansky's identity and our properly honest, from the heart, feelings about AI. You won't want to miss this, subscribe now!

Big Fat Northern Holiday

The lads start today's show by talking about AI girlfriends before having a good old chinwag about large language models (lady, lady, m'lady). After that, attention turns to where all the Billy Liars have gone - they used to be stalwarts in the local pub but have they vanished onto whatsapp groups instead?

There's also time for battery submissions, the nature of memory, and a bit of World War II chat into the bargain. Don't miss it! Subscribe now!

Algorithm Busters

Behold! Because the lads are back with the usual nonsense, including but not limited to, Old El Paso, Uncle Ben's rice, writing the quiz questions for a DVD extra of Little Britain (speaking of which, how have those lads not been cancelled? And while we're on the subject, when are *we* going to be cancelled?), the video game Darkseed and, if that isn't enough, what's it like trying to do exercise at altitude in Peru?

Peruvian Power Hour

Pete's been on the small talk again, he can't get enough of it these days. This time it was a man that decided to walk with him to the train station after commenting on his car. Did Pete decide to be friends with him, or did he make an excuse about needing a paper ticket and walking off? You'll have to listen in to find out.

There's also chat about Robocop, Pete's retirement plan, and of course your battery submissions. Get involved, Trev!

Train Station Stranger

The lads open proceedings by chatting about a picture of Pete's dad's quite strange-looking foot, which has been provided to us in x-ray format via whatsapp. When is a bunion not a bunion? Quickly, discussion progresses to the story on everyone's lips - the advent of Kerry Katona and Katie Price's live tour. Why did Kerry say that about Katie's son Harvey?

Elsewhere, there's hijackings, emails about government procurement and we may have found someone who's actually worse than Pete at small talk. And he's been accused of quite a serious crime...

My name is Grandma

Hello everyone and welcome back to an all-new episode of The Luke and Pete Show! This time around, the lads imagine what it would be like if Pete grew his ponytail out properly and started running a gas station in the Midwest. Would he get addicted to meth? Instantly.

Speaking of petrol stations, they always sell the duo versions of popular chocolate bars and they also always sell McCoy's crisps. Why? Meanwhile, there's also time to dissect the absolute insanity that is The Donald's latest speech about paracetamol, as well as why Pete is always on the lookout for a DVD copy of K-Pax whenever he heads to Europe.

Midwest Pete

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: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com And how are we still hearing about animals being used in war?
