Dishonest master of coin

We’ve got people running through the street with flaming barrels of tar, potato guns, and the discovery and exploration of a long-neglected shed!Also on today’s show: Rugrats, aggressive lemons, and a questionable depiction of a bunch of superheroes bowing down to some nurses. Meanwhile, Pete’s become more woke than ever and Luke’s *still* drinking from his Nalgene.We’d love for you to get in touch, hit us up at hello@lukeandpeteshow.com!**Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or your preferred podcast provider.

Every day we're skitching
Happy Thursday to you all! On today's Luke and Pete Show we discuss the chilling development that Pete might be renting a dog during lockdown, before apologising to the entire state of Illinois for forgetting about them last week. Yeah, sorry about that.Elsewhere there's Coolish, cheese rolling and Chinese takeaways before we listen to your stories about MSN Messenger, bids to impress girls, and plenty more besides. Oh, and stick around until the end for a textbook Donaldson meltdown about, of all things, the misunderstanding of improvisation in comedy.To email, it's: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast.

Whale explosions
Welcome back to The Luke and Pete Show where two grown men who used to sit inside talking to each other about the mundanities of life have been forced, due to the lockdown, to sit inside and talk to each other about the mundanities of life.This time around, we hear of a listener who thought he was going to die, another listener who genuinely thought he had died, and then a handful of whales that were, in fact, unequivocally dead. There's also fake news, 5G, and the world's slowest work canteen.Don't miss it, and make sure you contribute yourself, by emailing us here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please rate and review us on Apple or wherever you get your podcasts.

Spying on Tony Blackburn
Hello and a very happy Monday to you all! On today's episode of The Luke and Pete Show, our two eponymous antiheroes discuss the films of John Hughes, facial hair (or lack of it), and Pete tells us a story of a man who made a clay guitar. Elsewhere there's the social impact of a certain swear word, the time Pete popped an entire bottle of champagne to himself before going to bed because he felt light-headed, and finally we hear a truly chilling tale involving an elaborate CCTV set up and Tony Blackburn. Don't worry, it's not what you think. There's the best of your stories too, so stick around for those and to get involved yourself it's hello@lukeandpeteshow.com!***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or your preferred podcast provider.

You do the meth
As promised on Monday's episode, today we share with you an adorable twitter account run by a security guard at a cowboy museum. Check it out now, before things inevitably go south. We also deliver our verdict on the hit Netflix series Tiger King, and wonder how on Earth anyone could have predicted a combination of methamphetamine and wild animals would be so explosive.Elsewhere there's a man making essentially the same mistake twice trying to impress a girl, there's talk of the most handsome man in Japan and we field a glasses-related dilemma.We love you.
