The Luke and Pete Show

Latest Episodes:

An Inedible Melon Jun 25, 2026

Show notes

Luke’s advising Pete to proceed with caution vis à vis chlorinating his own paddling pool, but Mr Donaldson insists it’s all under control. It’s the rubble and cement-based tasks you have to worry about.

In other news, Luke’s attempt to support the local produce market left him sorely disappointed and Pete may well have fallen victim to a Del Boy style scam over some posh honey.

Plus, we hear all about the first Football Ramble World Cup Watch Party from the perspective of the man in the papier-mâché Richard Keys head.

Richard Keys: The Musical Jun 22, 2026

Show notes

Pete’s been working on a number for a musical about the life and times of Richard Keys, probably not coming to a theatre near you any time soon.

But don’t be disheartened, because today’s episode provides some big questions to entertain and delight. Why don’t little boys wear barrels anymore? Can clogs actually be comfortable? Is being 45 minutes late better than being 5 minutes late?

Finally, we’re back on conspiracy theories and this time there’s a graph to help us make sense of things.

Knob Out All Day Jun 18, 2026

Show notes

At the onsen, it is customary to walk around with your old lad out. Pete, on his recent trip to Japan, followed said custom.

On an entirely different note, we return to the subject of bad podcasting, which naturally leads to a chat about Chekhov’s gun and Occam’s razor.

Finally, we learn more about Luke and Pete's respective experiences with road rage, plus some listener correspondence.

You Believe in the Moon? Jun 15, 2026

Show notes

Pete’s come down with a wicked case of World Cup Fever, exacerbated by the rediscovery of his ceremonial Kevin Keegan rug that will surely have a part to play in this year’s tournament. Just keep it away from electronics.

Luke, meanwhile, has been to see Boyzone deliver two hours of consummate professionalism at the Emirates. Also present was Brian McFadden who, as Pete knows first-hand, is an excellent surrogate father.

Elsewhere on today’s show: how to manage conspiracy theorists, a look at the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics and yet more tales from the tip.

Wall-to-Wall Muck Jun 11, 2026

Show notes

Normal people are being price-gouged for paddling pools while conspiracy theorists insist that sun cream is population control. Summer is well and truly here.

Meanwhile, the White House is tweeting about the anniversary of a gorilla’s untimely death and appears to be attaching itself to obscure Scottish electronic music. It begs the question: do right-wingers understand art?

After that debate, it’s time for emails. No, we are NOT off to Mars.

The S.O.B. Show Jun 08, 2026

Show notes

Ok you sonuvab***h, it’s time for half an hour of nonsense. Pete’s bringing tripe, Panera Bread and salty butter to the table.

And, in exciting news, Luke’s been in Pete’s neck of the woods to play some golf with a certain Big Man. The course’s proximity to Southend airport prompts some aviation chat. Shoutout to British Airways and their exemplary safety record.

Big Screens and Good Beer Jun 04, 2026

Show notes

The Football Ramble World Cup Watch Parties rapidly approach and there’s a lot to be excited about, not least access to toilets and cold pints of My Fizzy Aunt.

Elsewhere on today’s episode, discussion of the World’s Most Sensitive Man-Baby and the attempts on his life, more Donaldson lookalikes, and the effects of fentanyl.

Not an AI-generated Podcast Jun 01, 2026

Show notes

Luke’s been to a conference and has discovered that there are companies producing thousands of 100% AI-generated podcast episodes each and every week. It’s the Wild West out there. But not here. The robots can never replace Mr Moore and Mr Donaldson.

Also on the agenda this fine Monday morning: tales from the tip and the Facebook algorithm’s love for a certain British gangster film.

Dreadful Far-right Music May 28, 2026

Show notes

On today’s episode, Luke and Pete get into the weeds of the British far-right and discuss the bizarrely disparate causes being represented at Tommy Robinson’s marches and the appalling standard of music on offer for his followers.

There’s also a couple of items of listener correspondence to attend to. First trains, then haunted dolls.

Too Stinky for Press-Ganging May 25, 2026

Show notes

Luke’s been on the health supplements and Pete’s feeling gassy on account of his mānuka honey and apple cider vinegar consumption. Maybe that’s why he reckons his stink would save him from nineteenth-century naval press-ganging.

Elsewhere, conversation turns to Luke’s new house and the adjustments needed, but not before Pete shares a truly horrendous nugget of information (?) about the bums of terrorists.
