The Luke and Pete Show

Latest Episodes:

The Panda Conspiracy Oct 08, 2026

Show notes

Recent geopolitical events have got Pete wondering whether he could successfully land a plane - any guesses for the response from a technologically capable man riddled with self doubt?

Other topics of bemusement: how aggressively Pete was ripped off at an expensive zoo, the ghost of Edwin Starr and seeing your patients when you're a GP at the bookies. Just another unplanned half an hour of rip-roaring Thursday morning entertainment for you to digest at your leisure.

Addicted to the Whoops Gun Oct 05, 2026

Show notes

How does Pete feel about manly embraces with Luke? And what does his hug attitude say about his relationship with commitment? Much to think about.

Once that’s been dealt with, it’s time for a chat about laundry duties, kids’ parties and Luke’s days working shifts in Asda as an intensely hungover 18-year-old. He simply could not keep his hands off that “whoops” gun.

Finally, Pete tells the story of a recent attempted elbowing he suffered on his way home from work. Don’t worry, he’s fine.

Crisp 'N Dry Oct 01, 2026

Show notes

The food stays crisp and dry, everyone. Let’s sing about it before your esteemed hosts reflect on how frightening children’s media used to be (and the ubiquity of weird men in said media).

Also on the agenda today: a discussion centring on Tom Skinner’s mental health walks, a crushing Sunday league defeat and Luke’s theory on the origin of various unpleasant right-wing behaviours.

Partaking of the Herbaceous Clippings Sep 28, 2026

Show notes

This fine Monday brings with it tales of Luke and Pete’s respective relationships with the devil’s lettuce, as well as a very nasty internet comment about Mr Donaldson’s home. It’s not big and it’s not clever, but we will devote a fair amount of time talking about it.

Elsewhere on today’s show, Pete’s mention of his bum-based insecurity sparks a minor debate about nightwear and Luke makes clear his stance on gambling. He used to bet on raindrops, you know.

A Voracious Reader Sep 24, 2026

Show notes

We’re kicking off today’s proceedings with a jaunt down a very Scottish memory lane, as Luke and Pete reflect on Dundee’s greatest export: the comics of DC Thomson. Those poor Broons were always getting taken advantage of, bless them.

Plus, Pete’s recent stay in Bath prompts a discussion concerning publishing, audiobooks and, naturally, Elon Musk’s big ol’ chest.

Finally, and most importantly, Luke is a big reader. He reads a lot. Just so we’re absolutely clear about that.

A brief heads up would’ve been fun Sep 21, 2026

Show notes

Because Ed Sheeran’s got no moral backbone and all the supporting artists have sacked his tour off, we’re here with unsolicited and unhelpful advice for the big man. No problem mate, always here to help.

Plus: the lunch strategies of middle-aged working men, some deserved Pete praise that leaves him very uncomfortable and one of the most haphazard limo journeys we’ve ever heard.

In a hostel with a boy from Switzerland Sep 17, 2026

Show notes

That’s it, we’ve decided that making fridges is far too easy now. Your favourite LAPS dancers are back to check in with the enshittification of modern life. At least Luke’s been growing ample fauna in his new garden.

We also run roughshod over modern skincare routines, assess cockroach infestation sleeping tactics and hear of some nuclear-grade small talk from Donaldson.

Corralled into AI Psychosis Sep 14, 2026

Show notes

Luke and Pete have got AI on the brain again and this time Anthropic and their public admissions of terrifying stuff are to blame. Chatbots, therapy from a computer, the end of civilisation – we’re getting through it all today.

Plus, it’s time to crunch through a couple of emails. The first concerns a deeply unpleasant act committed in Pete’s own Leigh-on-Sea. The second? Stinky men who are stinky on purpose. Enjoy.

Air Force Pete Sep 10, 2026

Show notes

We open proceedings with Mr Pete Donaldson telling his good friend Luke E. Moore about his trip to Poland, during which a woman was rude to him. Did he have an indie weekend? Listen to find out.

Elsewhere on today’s show, we hear about Pete’s plan to become an air-based digital nomad, Luke talks about his recently acquired diatomaceous earth powder and the good (bad) people of Reddit make their feelings known. Pete swears he doesn’t care what they think.

A Heartwarming Phone Booth Story Sep 07, 2026

Show notes

We kick off today’s show with a question of vital importance. What would be the most embarrassing song to be found listening to when you died? Luke and Pete name their picks.

Speaking of music, a certain big name actor has just released an album with a highly-respected hip-hop supergroup and Luke’s got some thoughts on the matter. He also tells a lovely tale concerning a nerd and a far-flung phone booth.

Finally, we’re talking AI again and there’s a hot take in the offing.
