I've been having issues with cookies on my browser, so I've not even got the running order up yet. So I don't know what day it is. I don't know who you are. I don't know who I am. I presume it's a Thursday, because I'm fairly certain that's why we left it last time round. We're going to be talking about batteries and stuff what we've seen on the internet.

I can fill in some of those blanks if you like. It's Thursday 9th November. I've been writing shit on my arm like bloody memento. It's very confusing. Is that what it is? Is that why you've just got the cat in the hat all over your body? Dorbings. Rude dorbings all over me. And recently on the show we talked about...

Basically, I think we talked about EU regulations for batteries, which wasn't more interesting than it sounds in the cold light of day, depending on who you ask. And we talked about a guy with a jet ski. Now, the jet ski chat was very well received. And what I should do is actually just follow up on that very, very briefly, if I may. If you haven't heard it, go back and listen to Monday's episode. It talks about a man in quite a depressing terraced house in I don't know what town in the UK. It's a terraced house.

There's nothing depressing about it per se. Just the things he's chosen to do with the front of it is depressing. Peter, I'm from a depressing town. This country broadly is very depressing anyway now. I think it's a safe bet it's not meant to be personal about anyone yeah the guy's got a terrorist house he's done his own drop curb he's put some cones at the front and he's got a jet ski that he hasn't used for a very long time a lot of people um kind of were kind of interested in that you know the jet ski lifestyle all the

rest of it now the original emailer stefan actually i'm not sure why stefan's doing this he's taking quite an avant-garde approach to communications but he decided to email the luke and pete show to get his email read out and now he's followed up by dm and me on instagram so saying what can you take that picture down everyone knows where it is i'm in big trouble jet ski man's trying he's got me in a headlock help i've had a jet ski right around my head because of your coverage he said hi luke i sent the email with the jet ski wrapped around my head I've had a jet ski wrapped around my head because of your coverage he said hi Luke

I sent the email with the jet ski just to answer your question I absolutely do not have the courage to knock on his door and ask him about his jet ski lifestyle

from what I've seen of him I don't think he'd take kindly to it thanks very much Stefan do we want to cajole and encourage Stefan to follow up on the jet ski saga of the year

or do we just want to leave it there Pete well we've got to make the decision. Is this man likely to end his life or is he just going to maim him and would we have a court case on our hands in which we have to pay out some kind of

medical bill. I'm fairly certain that's how it happens in most places around the world but I think here we wouldn't be liable for any medical costs. Rory tells me the jet ski was actually photographed in Exeter. Right, okay. Yeah, remember, Exeter's actually quite nice, so I've embarrassed myself there. But the photo's not nice, is it?

The photo's not nice. He's done terrible things to his own house. I think that I'd quite like to get the Geo... Is it GeoCache or Geolocator guy? You know that video game? I I mean it's loosely a video game They drop you In the middle of nowhere On a random street In front of a random house

Or in a random forest That Google Maps You know the street car Has The street view car Has taken a picture of And you've got to guess Whereabouts it is

And the closer you get The more points you get. And there are men, pretty much exclusively men. Oh, yeah, I've seen them on TikTok. They're fucking amazing. These guys who, there's this one guy who just like, he dropped it in the middle of, I think it was like Libya. It's a random road in the outskirts of a town in Libya.

And he just went bang. And it was maybe 100 yards. And it could have been anywhere this guy has amazing completed life well he's he's it's the most i've never seen anything that is so impactfully impressive and depressing at the same time but it is amazing how good he is like and i think what he's able to do is is over years of experience of practice i suppose is get a good sense of what the street signs look like or what the um telegraph poles look like and what the material to lay the road is like and he can kind of where the car's driving on the road what kind of cars are they but he does it in point one of a second right

it's incredible like the speed that he does it in, he just goes bang and some of the snackable content, the clippable bits and bobs, it's just an incredible scene. But there's an irony there isn't there because never has a man been more indoors Yes, there is but he must feel like he's travelled I've travelled boy

He's gone to the top of the street to get a packet of hobnobs and to meet the dealer, that's all he's done, that's all he's done and he probably feels to the top of the street to get a packet of Hobnobs and to meet the dealer. That's all he's done. That's all he's done. And he probably feels like the most travelled man in the world. Probably does, yeah.

But there's a philosophical element to this where it's a bit like, you know, has he really lived? You know, he hasn't even got that many TikTok followers, which is a shame for him. Is that definitely his TikTok page, though? I find the stealing of content is pretty rife on that particular platform.

Have you seen the app? That's a good question. I like the answer. But on the TikTok side of it, have you seen the, frankly, I mean, bizarre fashion on TikTok recently for people gluing kidney beans to their legs and pretending they're ticks? On TikTok? I've never heard this before in my life and I'm a little bit annoyed I haven't. So on TikTok, it seems,

there'll be a guy in some kind of rural environment. They've glued a load of different types of beans, but predominantly kidney beans, to their legs, pretended that they're ticks and then they video themselves taking them off. Oh, so it's like fake kind of like how to remove a tick safely awful it makes me feel fucking weird why does it make you feel weird they're beans because it's like it's like that whole that kind

of you know that phobia of like little tiny dot holes everywhere it's a bit like that tryptophobia yeah i think it might be yes a bit like that a bit like that. It reminds me of that. And it's not very nice to look at. I mean, I watch a lot of like fake. I find the craft of the fake sort of instructionals quite interesting. Those little kind of like those blokes who will find a 30 quid Game Boy in the middle of like a dirty old stream. And they'll pick it up and they go, I'm going to clean this and I'm going to make it work. But obviously they film the thing in reverse and they pretend that they'll pick it up and they'll go, I'm going to clean this and I'm going to make it work. But obviously they film the thing in reverse and they pretend that they've cleaned it up

but in reality they're just titting about. Yeah. And why would the Game Boy just be in the bottom of a river? That's why we throw car batteries,

Game Boys. That's how you get rid of them. Oh God. You never throw a car battery or a Game Boy away. It's a Rishi Sunak back scheme. But we've got a new scheme

just chuck your shit in the river it's fucking polluted anyway and we'll save a load of manhours let's just fuck it fuck it off yeah I actually thought speaking of that

I did intend to do a bit of jet ski chat here but I think that shit that jet ski may have saved presumably you've not bought one yet I've not bought one yet no I've been busy so yeah but hopefully you will at some point

in a way so you can reenact your favourite sitcom, which is only Fools and Horses. Yeah, I didn't really sort of see that episode, but I presume somebody falls off a jet ski at some point. I think Dale rides a jet ski in Miami and it gets stuck on one particular jet ski. Yeah, and he can't steer it right i mean that's him just just riding it for ages i mean every single jet ski has a has a kill switch on it it's

connected to you so it's just naivety from the whoever wrote that but a lot of sitcom yeah a lot of sitcom plot points mate can just be debunked though can't they i i think that's a big one i think that's I think that's I think that's an auntie's bloomer I want to see Terry Wogan sort of going

blooper oh well we've they didn't know there's a kill switch on everyone you've done this northern there yeah exactly

so of course that wouldn't have been quite the hilarious scene it proved to be had Del just decided to use the kill switch

use the kill switch just lean back and you'll fall off the jet ski and it'll kill the switch. Yeah, man, switch. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Never say the word kill switch in light entertainment, though. Yeah.

So, Peter, on the old, me just mentioning Rishi, old Rishi Sunak there, Dishy Rishi. Does anyone call him Dishy Rishi? I think that would be sarcastic at best. He's really small, isn't he? Yeah, you can be Dishy Rishi? I think that would be sarcastic at best. He's really small, isn't he? Yeah, he can be dishy and small. I'm not saying he can't be. No.

He's very small. He's probably perfect Tom Cruise size, you know what I mean? No way. He's smaller than Tom Cruise. He's very narrow as well. He's very narrow, yeah. If Rishi Sunak tried to do some of the stunts that Tom Cruise did, he'd have to use a little toy Evel Knievel motorbike.

Well, he wouldn't be as heavy, so it probably wouldn't damage him. The power to weight ratio. Yeah, exactly. Anyway, he interviewed Elon Musk in what I thought was the nadir of British politics since Brexit. Yeah. I don't think that's the main of it. All I heard was on the news that Elon Musk said that we're not going to have jobs, we're just going to have hobbies.

And you can hear the prime minister of our country chuckling away. Elon Musk could say anything. And there's certain types of people who would just go, brilliant. There's a certain sort of breed of person who is obsessed with, so obsessed with finance and so obsessed with financial success uh that um rich people a rich person could sort of say yeah i'd kill a zebra with a knife and they go oh great we should all be doing this um and it's and it's just it's very toxic if you're not talking about if you're in your mid-twenties and you're not talking about killing a zebra

with a knife in your circle, get a new circle. Get a new circle, yeah. But what I mean is just more specifically that it's not even necessarily a dig at Rishi Sunak personally, although he is the person who did it. It's the very idea that a head of state of like a really important democracy

should be interviewing someone like that. Yeah. It's a really, democracy should be interviewing someone like that yeah it's a really really depressing idea i understand though despite the fact that he's a controversial character to say the least and i'm not personally a fan of his he is a successful businessman for better or worse if he was going to interview rishi sunak about his latest policy or something. I kind of get that. But he's a head of state. You cannot be almost like symbolically promoting someone like Elon Musk to what is essentially above a head of state in that way.

I know you had a problem with the way that they kind of fucked around with the 10 Downing Street door to make it like an X-branded thing, which is very, very strange as well. They branded up the head of state's house with an X logo, a much maligned X logo at that. And people were just basically jumping on the back of Sunak because they're saying, you know, he's toast,

he's going to lose his job this time, getting into six months' time, and he just wants to go and work at Twitter the same way Nicolay's going to work at Facebook. That's probably true as well. But what it symbolically represents, I think, is a very, very dystopian, uncomfortable idea. And it should never have fucking happened.

And we should be ashamed as a country that we allow a head of state like that to be doing that kind of thing. But this is the new legitimacy, though, isn't it? Like, brands are the new legitimacy. Like, it's not a government bit of headed notepaper. It's a brand. It's the bloke who made $3 billion.

It's those kind of people, isn't it? So that gives you legitimacy. That's what people want these days. They don't want the old money. They want these weird people who've had their logos made in an AI factory. these weird people who've had their logos made in an AI factory. But Elon Musk is massively seeking legitimacy by doing that.

I mean, this is a guy who's like, you know. It's both parties just trying to find legitimacy in each other, and neither of them have it to give. I just don't believe that no one said at any point, even in like a briefing doc, okay, here's a, we're going to game out an idea here. This is an opportunity we've got to do this at this AI summit

with Elon Musk. What do we think? And they must have gamed it out. And sure, did no one mention at any point that he's got like a recent history of making like genuinely very problematic comments.

And the Prime Minister is supposed to represent a fucking diverse nation like the UK. The only people that are going to be bothered about that aren't going to vote for Sunak anyway, so may as well... I mean, they've been courting fascism throughout there.

I don't think that's true, though, Peter. Elon Musk said something on Twitter the other day, very, very strongly intimated by replying to a tweet that the white race has been eradicated. It's proper replacement theory, white supremacist stuff, right? And I don't think it's fair to say that any conservative voter feels that way. No, no. I wouldn't have a problem with that.

I wouldn't have a problem with that. But I think the party at large has courted those kind of sentiments within their own party, within the elected officials that help run the party, one would suggest. Oh, so you mean... Rather than the people themselves. But what happened after that was, though,

at least they got back onto kind of good ground and flipped it around and got back to the stuff everyone cares about by trying to outlaw homeless people's tents. Yeah. Was that part of the chat with Musk? Has he got a plan? No, that was Suella Brotherman, your friend of mine.

Suella in a big tube. That's the solution to everything, that, isn't it? Yeah, I mean, what left is there? What stupid shit is there left for that woman to say? Absolute tossers, the lot of them. In the car the other day, it made my mum, who's very mild-mannered and very shy, actually, though you wouldn't think that to listen to me, but she is, made my mum do a swear in the car.

Yeah, it's astonishing. I mean, it just seemed... And also for me, the thing that gets me is that I don't think that even plays to their base. I think it plays to a slightly more city, sort of London-y kind of base, to be honest, like you walk down the street in fact in my hometown nobody's sitting in nobody's sitting in tents you walk down the street a lot of town centers you don't necessarily see tents that's a very little jet skis that's

just sit in the jet ski yeah with the thing over the tarpaulin over here yeah i mean you don't see that i think that's a very london-centric kind of um gripe by a fucking idiot you know what i mean like it's just the culture isn't it just a really um the way i thought about it was just a very obvious way of trying to ape what some of these provocateur types in the trump environment do in the us right yeah oh this is played very well in the u.s this is the thing though right what they regularly mistaken i think i told you about this before i think i sort of mentioned this before but like there's certain things that just don't play in the uk like for example the far right kind of trump ecosystem in the us are very very dismissive of climate change in the

environment and stuff like that they don't really care about the environment there's not really a um there is a conservative history of protecting the environment in the us people like you know there's kind of people like teddy roosevelt way back in the day but actually in the uk we're very very like almost oddly protective of um the countryside and pets right pets in what ways yeah and yeah the country side you remember when theresa may i think it was under theresa may there was a talk of selling off all the national parks and everyone went mental right so there's certain issues that don't really um don't really play here and i think the issue of like fair play and the kind of being fair to people um on a kind of visceral scale like that is is a very so i think it's very certainly very un-british about sort of kicking someone when they're down if you

know what i mean maybe people wouldn't agree with that because they'll start talking about the empire and all the rest of it but i just but i think the rest of it. But I think there's a few less kind of self-made men. You know what I mean? Like they all, I think, helped by the fact that we've got stuff like a welfare state, stuff like we've got three hospitals in the main, in the point of care, however they're set up. No, it's three hospitals now.

Sorry, three hospitals. Yeah. And I think people know they're, you know, they don't check the things that they've got going for them. But I think when you, I think there's a lot more people in America that sort of go, I'm a libertarian. I want to do whatever the hell I want.

And whatever success I have is all my success, even though I drove on 15 roads that were built by someone else and paid for by taxes, you know, all that kind of stuff, really. So I think we know a bit more where our money goes to, if you know what I mean. Because there's less of it, I suppose. Yeah, it's a really fair point. I guess the reason I brought it up is because, as you just touched on, it's very, very difficult to understand why you would even say that.

Because you think so. So you think that there was a guy called Ian Dunn who I follow on Twitter, a political kind of commentator guy, and he was on the telly and he was saying that, you know, it's basically just a way for her to try and position herself

to be the next Conservative leader. But I was thinking, what like, what Conservative person that's normal is going to ever, going to want anyone to say that? It's just embarrassing.

I don't understand who you're appealing to. You look at an hour ago, the mayoral voting intentions, sort of, what do you call it? Opinion poll. Opinion poll. Labour, 50%, Conservative, 25%.

And this is in like, you know, Khan's, Ule's, Wonderland that everyone's supposed to hate. Yet Labour have knocked on 10 more percent on the voting intentions. Khan's Ulez Wonderland that everyone's supposed to hate yet Labour have knocked on 10 more percent on their on the voting

intentions inside London so it's just they're just whipping back and forth they're just trying to you know

they've got nothing going for them and they're just panicking and they're just throwing as much shit as they can at the wall

aren't they and see what well they've got our vote anyway at least agree on that I mean hate for people to think that we weren't pro-conservative.

I mean, Jesus Christ, guys. No, it's a politically neutral show. It's not a political program, Pete. We're just talking about the things that we care about and that take our interest, you know. Started out talking about jet skis, ended up talking about, as ever,

the inevitable death of civilization in the Western world because that's what 2023 is like. That's how it goes. Right, so let's have a quick break. When we come back, Pete's going to blow a hairdryer up his nose and see if it'll kill COVID.

Yeah. Well, that didn't work. I've just burnt all my hair. Well, you can burn off your nasal hair, and a lot of people choose to do that, don't they, like Turkish barbers and stuff? Not me. I use this little nose trimmer.

So I've got one of those, but I only use it for... It doesn't work in like the corner of my nose and I end up sort of spying at the odd... It's a satisfying sound, that. It is a satisfying sound.

When you hear the hair getting... But I think it might just be... I think it just might be a speaker in there because it just never seems to do anything. I'm getting to that point where it's just a little speaker

that goes... Just makes the noise. Do you remember those apps on the first iPhone or the iPod where it would just pretend that you're cutting your hair or this one Pete

I'll do it now on the camera just pretending to drink a beer that was so good that was such an innocent time wasn't it such an innocent time God bless the gyroscope let's get back onto more

onto more kind of familiar ground now because there was a great story you sent me earlier this week, Peter, about the Bored Ape NFT event. Yeah. Tell the listeners a bit about that. But before you do,

I was very confused to see they had an event at all because I thought that that was done now. That was in the toilet. That was one of the things that we're all going to never talk about again because we're all so embarrassed about the money we lost.

Yeah, or didn't invest in, or happy about the money we didn't invest i would say with um i would say with this uh it i mean presumably the board nft event attendees um are thinning out uh some would some would suggest and they're probably at a point where they probably don't want to spend money getting down to hong kong uh for for three days in in a very warm climate just i just think that uh it's just quite expensive quite an expensive thing where the board ape nft owners and lovers probably don't have a pot to piss in one would suggest and that's not even including their medical bills exactly exactly so so some ape fest attendees have reported photokeratitis, well does eye if you will, a condition caused by unprotected exposure to UV radiation. Apparently a wacky choice that the Bored Ape Ape Fest people decided on on stage was, we all like black lights, don't we?

We all like UV lights. It's really cool, isn't it? It's like proper, like, I've just woken up in a colleague's house and they've got the blue light on and I'm smoking a big biff. Everything's cool when you've got blue light. Legalize it. Legalize it. So apparently they whacked the UV lights up to quite high.

And, yeah, everyone's got sunburn and radiation issues in the eyes. And everyone's in pain. The skin is burnt. People are waking up at 3 a.m. with extreme pain in the eyes. And it's just quite funny to see. Yeah, it's funny. Yeah, it's funny. Yeah, it is funny. There's certain stories, Pete.

Let me be more diplomatic than that. There's certain stories that really do provide a metaphor for modern life. One of them was the schools and hospitals falling down due to rat concrete. That's a great metaphor for what's happened to the infrastructure in this country. This is another one. You decide to throw your lot in with bored ape NFTs, and not only do you lose all your money and you're labelled a prat, but you end up in the ER with severe...

I mean, there's one guy who said here, CryptoJune777 said, I woke up at 4am and I couldn't see anymore. I had so much pain and my whole skin is burned. I'm in the hospital. Could not see anymore. Yeah, so much pain and my whole skin is burned. I'm in the hospital. Could not see anymore. Yeah, I mean, so a lot of these people haven't been punished

by a God, isn't it? It is a little bit for their folly. It's always biblical. I mean, some of the prices of the consultation of people in Hong Kong,

the thing that gets me is the NFT people think they're so kind of above it all. I just think travel insurance will not be – they wouldn't even think about that. It's a big don't come in energy. I'll tell you, Pete, you're absolutely right.

They probably don't have health insurance because they're investing in their future in different ways. All they would have done is they would have done a lot of numbers, a lot of kind of deep maths and said it's not actually worth it. There's no value doing the insurance. There's no value, yeah, yeah. How is me paying money for health insurance going to make me get me my maserati in three years time like how is that going to work so yeah just some of the the amount of money that the um hong kong uh hospitals are

charging uh you know i mean so that's yeah it's eye drops not just lots of eye drops and consultations a lot of people spending a lot of money on eye drops, steroid eye drops. And you know for a fact that the Bored Ape decentralized organization would probably say, hey, you can't get us, we're decentralized. We don't have any legal obligation to help because we're decentralized. We are decentralized. No one, they can't find us. We've decentralized your retinas.

You like decentralization separating the lens from the vitriol speaking of that right so have you heard of a company called hype beast uh yeah are there yes i have so it started out as like a blog about people for people who love sneakers like sneaker heads and stuff and then it um then it kind of um expanded, it's like a contemporary lifestyle kind of quote unquote cool thing now, right? And this is good, right? So before this Bored Ape NFT eye injury sunburn thing happened,

this was, that was, which was recently, it was literally out this week. In 2017, there was a Hypebeast event at the hotel called The Landmark, which I think is also in Hong Kong, because I think that's where Hypebeast is based, right? A load of people had the same problem because it turned out that by accident,

the event company for the DJ set for some big DJ had installed lights that were only supposed to be used for disinfect disinfection purposes so people would dance under these lights so dancing under like literally just a sun lamp just you just imagine the event the event guy trying to get sued and just going back and going are you infected though did you get infected no you didn't no no it's the healthiest place you could have been have that in Covid let me go to the discord in the middle of Covid just stick the lights on 100%

they're playing it is a little scenario for you you have to stare at disinfection lights for 6 hours but in return mate Pulp play the entirety of Different Class live oh yeah I'd probably dip

out during live bed show or something. Just to give your eyes a rest. Just to give my eyes a rest, really. I'd look straight at them. I'd be like Donald Trump looking at an eclipse, staring right at it. Shall we do batteries before we go? Let's do batteries before we go, for crying out loud.

Batteries! We're going to kick things off with Are we like the crypto bros of batteries? We might be. Let's do batteries before we go for crying out loud. Batteries. We're going to kick things off with... Are we like the crypto bros of batteries? We might be. Greg, hello. Greetings from Ageo, Japan. Just inherited a bicycle. The set-up of changing the batteries and the lights.

How very quaint. Two sets of smart value AA's in the front light and AAA's in the back. Likely to have been purchased in Hiroshima quite some years ago. Is this a new entry? Cheers for the show. You're talking crap. Keeps me amused on my walk to work.

Looking forward to hearing more about Pete's automotive import adventures too. Smart value, Luke. Yes, smart value. It sounds plain. It looks more interesting than it sounds. It's got almost like a Nirvana kind of smiley face logo on there. Yes, it has, yeah. Which is pleasing yeah these batteries

contain them it yeah they do exactly that's very apt but they're not new players i'm afraid so thank you very much ben for sending them in but we've had them in at least once before um our friend sybil um in japan sent them in as well and there's been one to other people as well so you're not a new player there, I'm afraid. But it's a very, very interesting submission. So thank you for sending it in. A lot of Japanese entries this week. Probably a lot of batteries purchased in the 100 yen shop,

where you can buy stuff for very little money. Greg, do you look at Pete? I'm sending his batteries in for your consideration whilst sat on the totto toilet found in a TV remote in a hotel in Sapporo all the best

Greg Askel Alkaline looks like a very basic entry level battery to me it does but I like

the style of it it looks a little bit Swedish he sat on the toilet with the photo given a photo of the battery and in the background of the photo, it looks like he's on about the 50th floor.

Well, I presume, he looks like he's at an airport. He looks like there's a load of, like, airport machinery. It kind of, because Toto are the manufacturers of the crazy toilets where you press a button

and it makes noise and talks to you and sprays water up your bum. So I presume that's what he said. Does it get right up your bum hole? Oh, it's a, it's a real, um,

it really does make you kind of think, think twice about how you've spent 42 years of your life. It's a real revolution. In what way would you say? Just, you just feel better. You feel cleaner. Uh,

water collecting inside you. It's just, if you hit it right, man, it's just something else like for people who who sort of say it's this or that it's a sex bit thing peter you've never tried it and when you try it you won't want to go back because british people are a bit kind of um well a bit funny i mean if you like if you had the choice if someone had poo on a on a wall if someone if you got poo on your arm would you rather use toilet roll to get rid of it or water yeah i'd use water high pressure water exactly so i've got a six-month-old son i mean that's that's a very regular occurrence so they just wipe it off with a piece of paper and get on my life

i had to wipe Lola's bum earlier. That's his dog, by the way, for those people who are new listeners. My nan's very old. Askel Alkaline. Thank you to Greg for sending them in. Interestingly enough, he's the second person to send

them after fellow listener Mike Cheng, who sent them in back in April of this year, and who was, curiously enough, also in Japan. He was on holiday, and it was a toilet, and his hotel room was remote-controlled, he said then. So maybe Askew and Alkalon are the remote-controlled toilet batteries of choice. It certainly is.

Well, thank you for that, Greg, and enjoy the rest of your trip. Are they on holiday? I don't know. Sounds like you'll never get off the toilet based on the ring endorsement you're giving it. And ring being the operative part of the body one, which is just. Tony Potter, morning, boys.

I'm looking for a second entry here into the battery brand hall of fame. Found in a now flat Halloween singing Frankenstein's monster from Morrison's, I give you D-M-E-G-C batteries, which I presume are Canadian by the logo, because there's a little maple leaf in there, or maybe, legalise it, a weed leaf.

Fingers crossed with the show and everything you're putting out of stack. Tony Potter, also of Shared Birthday fame. Tony Potter, one of our birthdays, so to speak. It took us about 12 people to find a shared birthday, which is even better than we thought. Lovely. So, Tony, you're a legend. Thanks for sending them in.

I actually like the simplicity of your name as well, Tony Potter. So I'm just saying that sort of guy, your dad's mate who fixes stuff. With batteries. Speak of Tony Potter. D-meg batteries. Tony Potter will sort it out. He'll get you some batteries. He will, but they won't be new players

because he's the 10th person to send them in, the DMEGC. Say hello to Eduardo, to Liz, to Matt, to Dermot, to Kia, to Richard, to Lee, and a few others for sending those in already. So, Tony, you're nowhere near a new player there, I'm afraid, so your second entry is just going to have to wait for now.

Well, they're clearly popular anyway. So Tony's made some great choices in his life, I would say. What time are we at? Do we need to get out of here? Let's get out of here. Yeah, let's go.

Let's go. I'm fucking fed up with this fucking bollocks. This has been The Luke and Pete Show. We'll be back on Monday with all the things that have happened this weekend.
