Episode 184: Stories from an onsen
This episode of The Luke and Pete Show involves a story from Pete Donaldson which beggars belief, and it involves a child at an onsen. An onsen is a hot spring in Japan. Trust us when we say it is remarkable. Listen out for that, but also listen out for a great email from a listener on the subject of wedding photos, some stuff about scientific discoveries, an interesting theory about the link between high altitude living and suicide and, if that gets too heavy, a story about a swan getting stuck into a man's knackers.Info dump on us here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 183: Otterly ridiculous
In which we lament the passing of Eddie the Sea Otter, talk about the nature of time, wonder what's going on with the Stranger Things kids, and try to put together a comprehensive list of animals that have been known to masturbate.There's also something about Quentin Tarantino, but to be honest my notes for this episode are a bit threadbare because Pete wouldn't stop talking about bonobos and it was distracting me. We read a few emails as well though, I know that much.To send us an aforementioned email: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 182: Back with a Boston Crab
After an extended break involving several 'best of' episodes, Pete and Luke are back in the studio and talking through all your old favourites, as well as some new stories besides.This time around we go over Pete's experiences in Japan (clue: it involved a lot of rain), hear about an amazing loophole in the law preventing driving solo in the car pool lane, and marvel at Pete finding himself on the end of a savage wrestling move at school.Elsewhere, there's a listener experiencing a disgraceful injustice, big talk about geoblocking of video content, and hot tubs on tour. That'll make sense when you actually listen...To get in touch, it's: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 179: Dear sons and daughters of hungry bum ghosts
Pete and Luke are taking a break for one solitary week (and one normal-sized day) this summer, so the former has cobbled together a special look back at the first summer of the Luke and Pete show. Don't worry, there's a brand new email about drugs and vultures in the bag too, so don't make that face. Elsewhere there's Japanese yokai and Buzz Aldrin making a reappearance.

Episode 178: Do those sharks bite?
Lock picking. Fuelling cyclists. Bone conductors. Just three things you better prepare yourself for when you hit play on today's episode of The Luke and Pete Show. We also take in a truly incredible story about an ill-fated trip to an aquarium, hear yet more of your kebab-related stories, and Pete tells us about his favourite restaurant in Japan. Unsurprising hint: it sounds absolutely appalling.For this and loads more on your 178th instalment of the world's most untethered podcast, you know what to do.

Episode 177: A mate called Fraggle
This is an episode of firsts for Mr Pete Donaldson. Within it, we hear of the first time his Dad left him adult-less with only a friend called Fraggle for company, the first time he rode a bike, and, more disturbingly, the first time he realised that elephants have huge breasts. And yes, you read that correctly.There's also time to take in a truly remarkable story about a search party, some further chat about kebabs, and yet more dolphin anatomy. We apologise in advance for that last one. Some things just run and run.hello@thelukeandpeteshow.com for all your good stuff.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 176: A Tunnock's celebration
Hello everyone! We're back, and celebrating Boyd Tunnock's knighthood. Richly deserved for a great man who's made a fantastic contribution to society (and Luke's waistline), we're sure you agree.Elsewhere, we find out why the Queen has two birthdays, hear of a man who walks everywhere backwards, debate self-driving cars again, and talk business class on transatlantic flights. There's also plenty of your stories too so listen out for them, and to send in a story of your own, it's hello@lukeandpeteshow.com.
