The Luke and Pete Show
It makes you think
•
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.

Dinner with the boys
29:31|Today, it’s an email special, and the lads dive right in. First, Pete gets a roasting from an accountant over his take on charity tax write-offs, while another listener resurrects the classic “Did Pete know how Jesus died?” debate. Spoiler: yes, he knew about the crucifixion...but the finer details? Still a bit hazy.Meanwhile, Luke’s inspired by his brother-in-law’s legendary feat of downing 52 chicken nuggets in one sitting, sparking the ultimate question: how many could you take on in a single go?

28:40|Pete's gone on a pilgrimage to savour a McRib but is stopped in his tracks by a man who not only calls him an "old boy" but invites him to join his classic car club. Pete’s less than chuffed…meanwhile, the wife he has access to finds it hilarious. Elsewhere, the lads tackle a “kindness gone wrong” moment at the corner shop, breaking down the awkwardness of British politeness after a listener generously offers to cover a stranger’s chocolate bar - only for the bloke to cheekily upgrade his freebie with some chewing gum.Also on the docket: Luke’s rant about politicians cosplaying as “normal people,” and Pete’s ambitious plan to 3D-print a hip for his mum.

32:57|Pete recoils as Luke shares the news of a group of Yorkshire men who’ve met for a pint every week for 56 years – reigniting Pete’s infamous commitment issues. Meanwhile, Luke is left baffled by how anyone could forget the name of a book they’re currently reading.And if that’s not enough, brace yourselves for the main event: Donny treats you to the unparalleled thrill of a live nose hair trim.

31:49|This episode was supposed to be an email special but Pete got so animated about the idea of rounding up at the checkout when shopping that your missives had to take something of a backseat. When the boys did finally get to your emails, they read out messages from White Rock, British Columbia, Wisconsin *and* California including a message from someone who has just accidentally stolen some chicken goujons.

33:19|Is Pete a frolicker? Why is he so obsessed with leaves? And are these things related to why he never pays his tax on time? Elsewhere the lads discuss foods that are acceptable to eat in the mornings and wonder if Donny could 3D print a gigantic donut boy, in parts, to send to someone as a threat.And, just before they go, there's time to run the rule over your latest battery submissions, and assess why baby owls always sleep face down...Email: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com or you can get in touch on X, Threads or Instagram.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

25:56|Pete has finally joined the ranks of 3D printing enthusiasts, but not without a bizarre encounter with a sketchy seller. While Luke assumes Pete’s got practical plans for car parts, Donny has his heart set on printing one thing: a massive owl. Naturally.Elsewhere, the lads toy with the idea of becoming Deliveroo drivers to fund even weirder projects, and a listener shares his post-Hurricane Helene run-in with a stark-naked neighbour.Email: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com or you can get in touch on X, Threads or Instagram.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

35:04|Luke’s appalled to hear Donny uses Vinted and even more disgusted to hear he uses an InPost locker instead of getting the goods delivered to his house, like a real adult…Elsewhere, Luke gives his review of Better Call Saul and Pete boasts about his bath TV, which Luke just can’t wrap his head around!Email: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com or you can get in touch on X, Threads or Instagram.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.
