An Act of Radio Sabotage

24:08|Football’s back, baby. Luke’s focus right now, though, is less on the games themselves and more on his anthropological fascination with the group dynamics found among young blokes heading to and at the match. A chat ensues about this sort of “cosplaying” more generally.Plus, there’s an eclipse to discuss and Pete’s been to some local wasteland to get a hard drive off a boy. No other way of putting that, really.Send us your latest stories, questions and comments here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com.Ricky Gervais Does It Again
32:52|Being a parent to a small child is fraught with challenges, whether it be an unexpected early morning height-mogging by a tall dad or having to endure the dreadful, flustered driving of other parents as they take their own kids to and from nursery.On today’s show, Luke and Pete exchange these stories before moving on to subjects such as white guys with dreadlocks, drab contemporary political satire and the new Ricky Gervais vehicle “Alley Cats”. The lads aren’t quite in agreement regarding its merits (or lack thereof).Send us your latest stories, questions and comments here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com.Get Your Shackets and Shotguns Here
31:09|Pete’s feeling the siren call of a tiny pressure cooker and Luke’s wondering why John Terry would bother ringing in to TalkSport to defend his footballing legacy.On a different note entirely, the American contingent of Luke’s family has been to visit. Maybe big Sainsbury’s is as exciting to them as L.L.Bean is to us? That said, you can’t buy canoes and firearms at Sainsbury’s.Finally, it’s time for more listener correspondence. It looks like it's battery time.Send us your latest stories, questions and comments here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com.Whale Stench on the Machinery
27:49|Pete recently spent half a monkey on a hotel and went to see some atrocious stand-up. Luke’s reminded of the time he saw Van Morrison completely phone it in on stage. Also up for discussion today is the business of footballers’ eye-watering car insurance and Luke’s reservations about the expertise of vets.After that, it’s time to rattle through a veritable raft of emails, including one concerning the messy clean-up of a deceased and beached whale.Send us your latest stories, questions and comments here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com.The Impressive Chest of a Guatemalan Man
35:05|The UK is experiencing its millionth heatwave of the summer and the world is on fire but at least a lot of shareholder value is being generated.On today’s show, Pete regales us with stories from a day out in London which took him to the Tate Modern and into contact with the work of an avant-garde Guatemalan artist. He just couldn’t take his eyes off one particular installation.Plus, Gary Vee’s acting weirder than ever and Bob Dylan is incomprehensible at his present-day gigs.Send us your latest stories, questions and comments here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com.Eating Rollmops in a Public Toilet

It’s a bleak tale, but at least he’s not turning blue like that bloke who kept drinking silver.We get into that on today’s show - plus, we devote some time to the work of Jimmy Cricket, consider Pete’s dad’s newest obsessions and cast aspersions on the effectiveness of the Heimlich manoeuvre.Send us your latest stories, questions and comments here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com.The Toyota Century and 3D Printing Enthusiasts' Club
32:09|Pete’s got a vest on and isn’t sure he’s a large enough man to carry it off.

26:46|Bizarre stories abound on today’s show as Luke recollects when a load of covert overseas Chinese “police stations” were found in the UK and Pete details a data encoding furore from the 1990s. Plus, we learn what both the guys’ outrageous scientific claim would be to make a quick buck and disappear before the ruse was discovered.Finally, it’s email time yet again and there’s a lovely prom van to have a gander at.Send us your latest stories, questions and comments here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com.
