Lots to get excited about here including a very special guest familiar to those who attend the Luke and Pete parish regularly.But don't fear all the change, there's still plenty of old favourites to sink your teeth into - IT'S BEEN, crap jobs (including a monumental 'I quit' story), Mencarta and lots, lots more.Validate us, give us new ideas or generally moan about something here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast.

Episode 17: Every Single Photo Had the Eyes Cut Out
Pete announces to the world his catchphrase and then tells us all about the best dog ever (apart from possibly the one last week that was friends with a dolphin).The boys then take us all through a Bad Job/Good Job email special from listeners, including a truly horrific washing machine delivery, before telling some tall tales about terrible jobs of their own.To offer us a terrible job, email here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast.

Episode 16: Dougie the Dolphin
A dog has become friends with a dolphin in Ireland and it's a big hit with Pete. While all that's been going on, Luke's fitted a new car stereo (which is only marginally more interesting than it sounds) and there's more fierce debate about the calorie content of Guinness.And if all that wasn't enough, someone does something unspeakable with a big spoon and some chocolate pudding. And for once, it wasn't Pete.To send us chocolate pudding, or Guinness: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 15: Conversation Lozenges
Luke's been to Atlanta checking out whale sharks, and while he was there Pete was back in the good ol' UK judging a dog competition with an 80s pop star despite never owning a dog in his entire life and not knowing any of the breeds. It's great work if you can get it.Meanwhile, the boys also talk about the origins of Lovehearts as well as everyone's favourite tongue-replacing parasite. And don't worry, these two things are unrelated.Bother us: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 14: I Like a Squeeze Too Sometimes
What did you learn in home economics at school? What did you have from the vending machine after you went swimming? But you know what they say, nostalgia isn't what it used to be, so there's also enough space in the Luke and Pete audio bubble to chat about your most awkward family dinner incidents and a mysterious and unsolved death in Australia in the 1940s which Pete appears to be obsessed with.To solve the crime or just let us know regrettable things you've said at the dinner table hit us up: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast.

Episode 13: Good Luck/Bad Luck
Pete's done Luke a solid and prepared the show on his behalf, and if that doesn't worry you it really should.This time around the boys hang their chat on the loosest of themes but it means they take in such compelling subjects as marble racing, the geology of south London, shipwrecks (again), atomic bombs (yes really, yet again) and torture techniques.In retrospect, talking for ten minutes about torture isn't the most pleasant of listens but the world isn't all rainbows and unicorns buddy, so deal with it.To bring something to the table, say hello here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast.

Episode 12: Shark Turns Oven On
There's enough chat about chocolate bars to sink a battleship (hopefully without an unlucky Uruguayan onboard), Luke tells a frankly quite horrendous story about a fox - so consider that fair warning - and, sticking with the nature theme, there appear to be frogs and ants playing host to a range of parasites.There's also enough time for a couple of listeners to chime in about one of 1999's most controversial films and yet another email about you know what. Please stop sending them in.Email us about literally anything else here though: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episode 11: Get Your Tintagel Out
Luke's been to Cornwall and discovered a giant goat (with a huge penis) in an exceptionally well laid out museum, and Pete brings two vocal record-breakers to the table, with differing results.There's also time to hear about a truly horrific mental disorder courtesy of one of our listeners, and we round off the show by heading to sea for the newest Mencarta induction.We love hearing from you, so say hello here: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com Hosted on Acast.
