Episode 199.58: A cannibal that doesn't exist
It's been a while but on today's show we delve back into the conspiracy theory/apocryphal tale arena, thanks to an over-exuberant listener who may or may not be old enough to know better. Bless.On safer territory, there's the World Stone Skimming Championship and Pete possibly being the most bored Luke has ever seen him. We also discuss the rules of a duel (seconds out!), some stuff on boxing (seconds out again!), we hear from the great Fred Trueman, and then get into a chat with the lesser-spotted Pilot Claud! Yep, there's another one in our ranks! We'll have enough for our own air force soon...To out yourself as a pilot, a cannibal, a world-class stone skimmer or anything else for that matter, it's: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 199.57: A little bit of the bubbly!
How do you sleep? Pete wishes he could just take his arms off. It would make the whole ordeal easier. One thing that would definitely make life more entertaining is having Samuel L Jackson voicing your Alexa - something that is now actually possible thanks to our overlords at Amazon, so we discuss that as well.Elsewhere there's talk of testicles, Michael Gove's demeanour, and the ways and means of making KFC gravy— which is not for the faint hearted, believe us. Probably won't stop either of us eating it, mind.To get in touch: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 199.56: Dog professor
Luke's been to Churchill War Rooms and Pete's been to McDonald's. Both places include technology of interest, one related to the safety and survival of millions of people in a war and one to get Chicken McNuggets to people more effectively. On today's LAPS there's chemicals with funny names, dinosaurs separated by millions of years, a man from Hartlepool breaking into abandoned buildings with 'mixed' results, and lots more. Don't sleep on it.To send us a subject for rumination and comment: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

There's talk of a meme refuge, appearances on chat shows, reaching out to other meme victims, the lot.In other news we cover subjects including cat's urine, drone warfare, Dave Grohl and Rick Astley.
