The boat that flopped
We’ve all been there: 18 years old and looking for a place to cause mischief, what do you do? Buy a boat, apparently…Luke tells us a brilliant tale about all that on today’s show! We then give our further thoughts on the new Cocaine Bear movie and reach the reasonable conclusion that all films should be more like Die Hard.We still want you to send your Christmas stories!

The ghost of rodents past
In the least surprising news ever, Pete is feeling unwell on today’s show. Whether it’s because he and Luke went out last night or because he had rotten rice and cream for dinner when he got home, we’ll never know.Elsewhere, we hear about the “unusual” gift he’s getting his mum and a mainstay of the Stak universe tries to submit a new player to the battery daddies.We still want you to send your Christmas stories!

Bonus episode: The Interruption
What a treat! Luke is here, on a Wednesday, with a special bonus episode. Today, we’ve put Pete stories of DIY mishaps and erections while playing video games aside, as Luke is instead joined by Tommie Trelawny, the host of The Interruption, a new and totally fascinating podcast from Stak that we think you’ll love.On 26th November 1977, the mysterious alien voice of “Vrillon” broke onto the five o’clock news. The intruder had a warning to the viewers of Southern Television: live in peace or leave the galaxy. For forty-five years, those responsible have not been identified. Tommie Trelawny has reopened the case. Who, or what, was behind The Interruption?Listen and subscribe to The Interruption HERE! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Never make your own stair gate
Let’s admit it, other people’s kids are incredibly annoying.

No Sleep 'til Hammersmith
Luke’s flown in overnight from the States to record some Luke and Pete Show. It might sound showbiz, but the flight was unfortunately ruined by an unpleasant surprise…In better news, Luke’s brought Pete back a very thoughtful present from his holiday and we also ask the very important question, why doesn’t Pete own a 3D printer?We want you to send in your Christmas stories!

How to become a cowboy
What comes first, the problem or the Donaldson? Pete has been complaining that his house constantly needs work at the moment. Do we believe that it isn’t his fault? He also just smashed his phone, but we’ll let you decide.Elsewhere, we spend far too long reading a coroners report and we try to decide whether age should be a factor when becoming a cowboy.Want to get in touch?

Thankful for dogs
Happy Thanksgiving! To celebrate the occasion Pete offers up a rare moment of poignancy as we give thanks to our pets at the start of today's show.Don't worry normal service is resumed when Luke tells us some foul stories from the days of VHS. He also tells us about a very "interesting" shop owner he met on holiday and a quick Google tells us this man actually has quite a reputation...Have you met any "interesting" shop owners?

Just put some tabasco on it
Pete bravely offers some cooking advice on today’s episode. Listen to him at your peril…He's also been displaying some “interesting” behaviour during the promotional video for a local wine bar, Luke has – disappointingly – made it into the Daily Mail, and a listener sends us a lovely poem.Want to send us a poem?

I miss my mum
Pete places us right in the middle of the True Geordie vs Andrew Tate beef on today’s episode. Would you expect anything else?We also discuss the bizarre phenomenon that is Matt Hancock in the jungle and Pete shares a typically niche idea for a documentary - brace yourselves.Want to contact the show?

Democracy vs Banter
What is more important? The future of liberal democracy or the banter? That is the question you have to ask yourself when you see Young Boozer on the ballot sheet. Elsewhere, we hear about Pete’s bizarre approach to public speaking and our mushy peas vs baked beans debate reaches a dramatic conclusion. Are you team baked beans or mushy peas?
