Episode 154: Pete Donaldson lorry attackWelcome one and all, we're back in the studio and this time around dishing out red-hot chat on a variety of wide-ranging and different subjects, from webcam security to Zach Braff losing his temper, and from Arnold Schwarzenegger to Pete almost getting run over.In addition to that of course, as is the custom, we hear from you the listener as well. In this episode we take into account the sheer size of Comanche country back in the Old West, a phobia that no-one, and we do mean no-one, has ever heard of before, and a very gruesome exhibit at a theme park.Oh, and it's Mother's Day on Sunday, so don't forget to call your dear old mum.

Episode 148: Swinging the swing
It's World Book Day today! As a result, the boys spend some time talking about the books they are currently reading (well, Luke does. Pete can't remember), and then they get into the weeds of your much more typical LAPS fare - bonobos, whether it's physically possible to swing a playground swing all the way around, the accidental outing of listeners who would prefer to be anonymous...you know, the usual stuff.Make sure to check out Searching For Sugarman, Erik Larson's In The Garden of Beasts, and give props to one Luke Cunningham, a listener who sent us in an original song about the show! Mad love!Also, it's hello@lukeandpeteshow.com on the email, and @lukeandpeteshow on those socials!***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Good afternoon and welcome to another episode of The Luke and Pete Show, and with Pete fresh off the plane from Taiwan, it's an absolute belter!
