Rogers. it's the luke and pete show my name is pete donaldson it is monday the 1st of january welcome to a new year 2024 what's that all about then 2024 lukey mower very exciting isn't it it is it is it is is, it is.
Starting point is 00:00:45 It's the time of year. What are you going to do? Tell me what you're going to do. Tell me what 2024 needs to look like for you to be a successful year. Well, I've not been drinking half as much as I used to, and I've been doing HelloFresh, and I've shipped a load of pins.
Starting point is 00:01:02 So what have I got to pretend to do in January? Like last January, I bought some trainers and tried to go for three runs. It didn't work. Yeah, I remember that. You tried to run really fast, didn't you? Really fast and then stopped. And then you got pissed off.
Starting point is 00:01:17 But now, because I lost the weight in kind of December, I put a bit more on over the Christmas period. But I just feel like i've i've got nothing to i've not let myself down i've not embarrassed myself so okay let me rephrase the question how are you going to disappoint yourself in 2024 yeah well the toyota century debacle rolls on yeah first and foremost that needs to be resolved sooner what's happening with that that's a 20 quid fee every day i I don't want to go and pick it up. You said that the other day.
Starting point is 00:01:48 What's actually happening with it? Everyone's asking me about it. I don't know why you're asking me. I'm trying to get hold of a... I'm trying to find a Japanese... a JDM, Japanese Domestic Market MOT guy in Essex. So that's my... So I need to figure out
Starting point is 00:02:04 what the destination is before I can take it from Southampton Dock. So that's my first kind of thing I need to do. It can't go anywhere until you do that. Can't go anywhere.
Starting point is 00:02:15 No plates, baby. No plates, unfortunately. You could probably be right. Just drive it. You'll never get caught. I do sort of think that a little bit, actually. People will be like,
Starting point is 00:02:23 who's that cool dude? I reckon if you were driving that kind of car with no plates across, it would be a couple of hundred miles probably from Southampton to Southend, even a kind of entry-level traffic officer would be like, I'm not messing with that. I don't want to know. I don't want to. That might be some kind of high-powered diplomat.
Starting point is 00:02:43 Right. If I just had like a... Something to drive you. Put a little flag on the bonnet. 3D printed gun in my hand. Probably don't do the gun. Be my own security. I think you might get away with it.
Starting point is 00:02:55 Yeah, you reckon. You reckon. Yeah. But you're not going to risk it? I'm not going to risk it for a biscuit. I just think, why don't I just take the plates off my car? It's the same colour. Just pop it on the new one.
Starting point is 00:03:05 They've got ANPR, haven't they? So they'll know. Yeah, but they're not going to know that it's definitely the different car, is it? They've not got a Toyota Century identification tools, have they? Unless they have. Unless they come up on the screen,
Starting point is 00:03:17 it'll say Jaguar or whatever. Right. Pistain Jaguar. But why would they? That'll be a Toyota. And they'll go, that's not right. And they'll pull you over. It doesn't say Toyota on it anywhere.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Because it's a fancy, silly car. Get someone to drive you. If you sat in the back seat and got someone to drive you, I reckon you might get away with it. In a suit, eating a big, eating a rich man's food. A 12-inch Subway. Yes, I will have extra sweet onion sauce, please. Dripping all over my naked chest. Whoa. mess with the police the police report i was gonna apprehend the uh the suspect
Starting point is 00:03:52 he's got i then noticed he was eating a 12 inch subway with sweet onion sauce all over his chest yeah and i thought this guy must be serious by the way way... He's probably a Bitcoin billionaire, that guy. The part that you've got access to did find out about the car in the end, right? Yeah. After my big licks on the show. I mean, I don't know if she's had time to do that. And she will hear that on the show
Starting point is 00:04:20 in a couple of weeks' time. But I literally... We recorded on sunday we released on a monday i said i'm doing this in the second half because sarah won't be listening this far she's busy and i came in from the tip and and she i could hear my voice and my my my blood ran cold i bet it did my blood ran cold what's been the repercussions so far? She's too busy. She's too busy to have repercussions on me, but I know it's coming.
Starting point is 00:04:50 I know it's coming. She's going to attack that Mr. Donut I bought. She's going to smash it off. So are you going to get rid of the Jag or not? Yeah, I can't have two cars. What's wrong with me? Where am I? Where am I? A man who eats a footlong Subway?
Starting point is 00:05:04 Have you still got the Fiat 500? No, I got rid of that. I took it to market and then got excited and came back with a bloomin' Jag, didn't I? Like an idiot. Oh, yeah. Have you still got the Chinese moped? I've still got the Chinese moped.
Starting point is 00:05:17 If the kids leave it alone, I've still got the Chinese moped. Have you got the jet ski? It is. I've not got the jet ski. My Chinese moped is manacled now to the sewer pipe, the waste pipe from upstairs. So if a kid wants it, he's going to have to get his hands bloody dirty.
Starting point is 00:05:35 That's all I'm saying. I love that your house in my mind now looks like a Chinese, an 80s, 1980s car lot. Come on, shut up. I've got a really loud suit on. And a Stetson. Have you found a potential buyer for the Jag or not?
Starting point is 00:05:53 I've not even taken receipt of the fucking century. I don't know what state it's in. It's probably broken. What financial loss are you prepared to accept on the Jag? What have you resigned yourself to? There'll be a financial loss anyway because I sank a lot of money into it when
Starting point is 00:06:07 the boat was full of water. How much did you buy it for? You don't need to know these figures. Just tell me because I want to run the numbers. How much did you need to sell it for to break even? More than anyone's probably prepared to pay but I will not be selling it i will not be doing a
Starting point is 00:06:26 we buy any car i will not be using a marketeer i will not be using a used car salesman because they they have done yeah that was sort of you're gonna do it yourself that won't go wrong with it what um what i was thinking of doing like a really stupid video hey do you want to buy my car like like make it a bit like this guy knows what he's doing because he's instead of like having like boring pictures of the of the car i could film myself going hey do you want to buy my car the boot's not full of water i could point out what things i've fixed who who's gonna watch it that's gonna want to buy it that's what i mean the sort of people who would buy that car are a bit more sensible aren't they yeah the venn diagram between jaguar buyers and your dreadful
Starting point is 00:07:11 tiktok channel is very very slim you're not going to find anyone i want to know why can't the world just get off my fucking bum why can't I just leave my bum hole alone? Pete. Honestly. Look, I'll just... I'll just try to live my life. What year is the Jaguar? Having fun times buying Donut Man. What?
Starting point is 00:07:33 We're going to do the Donut Man in a minute. What year is the Jaguar? I think it's 2014, Luke. And what model is it? 10 years old. It's an XF. I've done any of the other details. Stop trying to find out how much that is worth.
Starting point is 00:07:45 I want to find that. So basically, right, Autotrader has got 2014 used Jaguar XF cars for sale. Yeah. And they range, by the look of it, from between £8,000 and £13,000. Right. Right. Well, that's all right. I'll be happy to be a friend of that.
Starting point is 00:08:00 How much did you pay for yours? I paid about £11,000, I think. Okay. So you're in the ballpark. I'm in the ballpark. I dropped a bit of money on things like struts. So you're going to need to get about 12 grand for it to break even. Probably more than that.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Okay, but there's not a human being on the planet who's buying any car from you for 12 grand, and I mean that with love. I'm sure there's a little boy in Japan called Peter-san who is very interested
Starting point is 00:08:31 in importing my very exclusive Jaguar XF right hand drive because they're driving on the left hand side there. I think someone will be very pleased
Starting point is 00:08:43 when I drive up to portsmouth dock and said please please take this please take this on my hand pete you've got again i mean this with love you have got an energy about you where if someone approaches you whatever the proposed transaction you scream there's no way i'm giving that man 12 grand would you throw a Mr Donut in with every deal one for every seat do that in your video you end the video when you're trying to sell your Jag put a Mr Donut in every seat
Starting point is 00:09:13 not these guys go for a drive with all my friends the fibreglass dust get on every I just start coughing into the camera really hard. Oh, my God. It's going to be a vintage year, I can tell already. Absolutely vintage year.
Starting point is 00:09:32 So talk to me about Mr. Donut. How's it all going? Mr. Donut, the dream continues. I think that's going to be my project after I've seen what financial strife I'm in. Hole you're in, yeah. Let me give the listeners a bit of an insight because when we were preparing this show today, you just sent me a link
Starting point is 00:09:48 and it was a Google Maps link to a life-size models shop that you found in a place called Bovie Tracy, which is just outside Exeter. I've actually been to Bovie Tracy. I'll say just outside Exeter. It's just more like a Newton Abbott type way. But you're visiting there.
Starting point is 00:10:07 You're going to buy a Mr. Donut from there because the photos of the Emporium itself, I mean, it does look very exciting. Yeah. I mean, you've got Mr. There's dinosaurs. There's dodos. There's woolly mammoths.
Starting point is 00:10:17 There's unsupervised children. There's all sorts going on. There's just a fish just kind of standing up. There's Mr Mr Bean dressed as 007. Some of the statues are actually quite racist. Yeah, there's the racist ones. There's always the, I don't know why statue makers have decided that
Starting point is 00:10:33 they're still doing that. You're not going to make any money out, well, maybe. No one's buying that. Maybe out in the sticks. I've never had these in Devon. That is fair. You never know. But anyway whole there's a whole section of this jolly roger limited life-size models emporium dedicated to jurassic world and i'd love to know if that is official animatronics or models yeah yeah i'd love to know that i don't i mean they've got a cave woman who's got like a massive head i don't think it is official you know so they've also got in there they've got a cavewoman who's got like a massive head. I don't think it is official, you know.
Starting point is 00:11:06 So they've also got in there, they've got a Mr. Donut ready to go. They've also got the aforementioned hot dog guy squeezing the ketchup on his own head. Yeah, and a weird kind of bin that's also a burger, a burger bin. A lot of motorbikes as well, a Triumph motorbikes. Yeah, how much would you be happy to pay for the Mr. Donut? Because it looks like it's in pretty good shape. I'm not going to go north of 250 for Mr. Donut. And would you want him to chuck in the hot dog guy as well?
Starting point is 00:11:33 No, I'd want the bully and the ice cream. There's a bully and the ice cream. I think this is the kind of shop you should never go to. Because I think, you know, you're stuffing the jag full of these life-size models. And quite frankly, the partner you've got access to is going to leave. There's like big sort of, again, a lot of stuff is like toddler size. It's way too big. They've ordered too many donut guys.
Starting point is 00:12:00 He's in about five different sets of the displays. There's a massive kind of toddler-sized collection of bulbs of garlic. It's insane, this place. Absolutely mad. They've also got the guy from the Pixar movie played by Steve Carell in Despicable Me. I can't remember his name. Got a bit of him as well. It's a great shop. I think it's an amazing place to visit if you are listening to this and you live anywhere
Starting point is 00:12:19 near there. To be honest, it's not actually far from where the guy had the jet ski outside his house. Right, okay. It's very much the same part of the world. It sounds like this part of the world is where I need to sort of get exiled, to be honest, it's not actually far from where the guy had the jet ski outside his house. Right, okay. It's very much the same part of the world. It sounds like this part of the world is where I need to sort of get exiled, to be honest. People are just into stuff that they shouldn't be. That you'd be well into yourself. By the way, speaking of this, did you know, and there's no reason you would know this, no and there's no reason you would know this so the guardian do a um a kind of series of articles about famous people's pets like beloved pets right right you seen that no um it's kind of
Starting point is 00:12:56 it's kind of interesting it's called the pet i'll never forget um you know um arlene Phillips, for example, talked about her little terrier that she had. There's also who's got a little cat that she loved. And Chris Packham talks a lot about his poodles, itchy and scratchy. And then there's a couple others. The most recent one is Lawrence Llewellyn Bowen, right? Your friend and mine. What's your impression of lawrence llewellyn bowen before i tell you the information i almost guarantee that he's got something you wouldn't expect like a bully xl one of those japanese fighting dogs
Starting point is 00:13:40 and the name oh erm the shits yeah a dog called the shits like that one the Steve Martin film the jerk shithead
Starting point is 00:13:51 yeah dog shithead so I don't know if Lawrence Willem Bowen is doing this on purpose or whether he's
Starting point is 00:13:57 like right I've been asked to do this by the Guardian so I've got to think of the most Lawrence Willem
Starting point is 00:14:02 Bowen thing I can yeah his apparently long lost most loved pet that he'll never forget was a crab called caligula wow which is just it is baffling yeah well absolutely baffling did you what you just keep it in a in a tank and he bobs around yeah i mean basically um he he yeah he lived in a he lived in a in a tank in the in their house in cornwall um and apparently the um he left him for a few days or something and um the heating came on in the house unexpectedly
Starting point is 00:14:39 the house was really hot um the fish and the fish and the crab had basically all been killed right okay um so he basically bored his crab alive um yeah it doesn't sound like the the the pet you'll i mean i guess the pet you'll never forget in the same way that fred west probably remembers quite a lot of his crimes yeah i mean he's not i mean you'd hope so it's the least he can do isn't it i mean you'd say that was the defining moment I suppose in his life so yeah people talk about Fred West a lot don't they
Starting point is 00:15:06 yeah because I mean he's it's astonishing his hit rate for his mental acuity one would suggest
Starting point is 00:15:12 that is that is the curious part of it yeah so yeah officially 12 or 13 victims
Starting point is 00:15:20 across a span of 20 years which does seem remarkable really mind you it wasn't the 60s and the 70s and the 80s it's a bit different now i expect what are you saying there's nothing to do there's nothing to do about then partly but i'm also saying that um you'd hope once you haven't said that every time i think about that kind of thing i think about the parlous state of the police
Starting point is 00:15:40 service and possibly not i think they're saying that in america like they can't solve murders anymore they're finding it very difficult to solve murders like murders have got increasingly more difficult you'd think it would get easier but it's just getting more and more difficult is that just because there's so many of them i don't really know to be honest i don't really know because there was there was a record set wasn't there in the us during the pandemic right was there okay it's come down a bit since yeah yeah basically what the pandemic has done is essentially skewed every single kind of statistic yeah a metric because like they talk about how like it's got its services it's it's reduced the amount of resources any government has it's also done stuff like um
Starting point is 00:16:24 one of one of the things that like that like because joe biden gets gets kind of criticized for so now we've got the we put the most people back in work of any administration ever um to be fair i mean it is since covid right yeah i mean the job numbers are generally pretty good in the us but like a lot of it is essentially down to that which kind of is a little bit unhelpful i suppose but i mean and a lot of these is essentially down to that, which kind of is a little bit unhelpful, I suppose. But I mean... And a lot of these zero-hour contract kind of app-based companies are going to the wall. So people have to find jobs that are a bit more permanent, I guess.
Starting point is 00:16:53 But the murder rate in the United States is... I mean, it is extraordinary. If you think of how many murders in the UK you have a year, I think it's round about normally about 300 in the whole UK a year. The US in 2021 had 23,000. Yeah, I mean, even extrapolating that out for their population, that seems... It's only got five times the population of the UK. Yeah, that seems excessive.
Starting point is 00:17:20 And it's weird because, by and large, people are quite personable. Even the by and large people are quite personable even the least personable people are quite personable is it because they're too personable maybe maybe maybe it is
Starting point is 00:17:32 I think it's probably I think that if I may be so bold Peter maybe that's just not quite the full picture maybe you personally finding Americans personable
Starting point is 00:17:41 which I agree with probably doesn't explain the whole picture of the murder situation. On that note, let's take a break. When we come back, I want to do an email or two if that's okay with you, Peter. All right, then.

Starting point is 00:18:11 We're back with a little Pete Shaw. I don't know actually how long we've been recording, so we might have been recording for five minutes, we might have been recording for 15, might have been recording for 35, I don't know. Sounds very much to me like a Rory problem. Yes, yes indeed. Just ride Pete up and let him go, for 35. I don't know. Sounds very much to me like a Rory problem. Yes. Yes, indeed.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Just ride Pete up and let him go and everyone else could pick up the pieces. Exactly. True. True debt. Do you want an email
Starting point is 00:18:32 from Shiv? I think it might be up your street, Peter. Shiv from the TV show Succession. That would be... Given the content of the email,
Starting point is 00:18:41 it's doubtful. Or Chevalier used to work on the sales floor at Global. Could be. More likely, I would have thought. It's about flying in economy class on a plane, so I wouldn't have thought it's Shiv from Succession. Right, okay, fair.
Starting point is 00:18:53 That probably rules her out, I would say. Anyway, Shiv says, Salutations, I'm writing this to you from Denver International Airport. Alternately, the home of the Illuminati of the internet is to be believed. Remember we talked about that yes
Starting point is 00:19:07 I think so there was a big thing about um questions yes would you want me to there's a basic it's basically a lot of conspiracy theories around the Denver International Airport we talked about
Starting point is 00:19:24 you don't remember not really so it's like they say it like oh Denver International Airport. We talked about it. Do you not remember? Not really. So it's like they say it like, oh, the runways form a swastika and there's Freemasons crests on all the stonework. And if you look at all the paintings and the artwork in the terminals, they're all this and they're all that.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Right. But it's, I don't, I mean, surprisingly, I don't think there's much in it. Anyway, Shiv says, I'm't, I mean, surprisingly, I don't think there's much in it. Anyway, Shiv says, I'm en route to Australia and New Zealand with my girlfriend, soon to be fiance, if all goes well. Keep us updated on that, Shiv. And I thought there was no better time to write into the Luke and Pete show
Starting point is 00:19:56 with a philosophical question about airplane etiquette. On a recent flight, I was seated in the aisle with a fellow passenger in the middle seat and no one in the window seat. After the flight took took off I was expecting my seatmate to move over to the window to give us both more room but I was mortified when he did no such thing and instead opened his laptop and started working suffering from similar social anxiety to Peter I could not dare bring myself to ask my seatmate to move over and was quietly fuming the entire flight. I pose this question to the lapsed community. Is it not proper etiquette for a middle-seater
Starting point is 00:20:29 to shift over when there is an empty seat in the row? Regards, Shiv. I would say that the guy with the laptop is as green as green can be because that is exactly what you do. You move along. You sort of go, right, this is our space. If people want to sit in between us,
Starting point is 00:20:45 that's their business. But I will give myself the most amount of space possible. Yeah, and why are you choosing the middle seat anyway? That's deviant behaviour anyway. Well, maybe he's just put there and he's just, you know, he's just a bit, I mean, it's a long, long, long off flight as well. Very bizarre.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Yeah, I completely, I completely agree with Shiv there. It was atrocious behaviour. What's your seat preference? It used to be window, but since I've started hydrating, aisle. Since you started drinking water for the first time. Honestly, I could go 12, 13 hours without going to the toilet. Just like a fucking raisin.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Since I've started... I mean, I'd be pissing blood after that but i mean yeah just treacle coming up the end of your old chat weirdness um i always i always go i'll just because i think you get a little basically if you if it's a longish flight and they kind of settle down and don't and then the and the staff aren't going up and down the aisle every 10 minutes. You get a lot more room. And also what I find interesting is that like when you're in the middle of the plane, you don't feel the movement as much. Right, okay. So like if it's turning or banking or whatever,
Starting point is 00:21:57 you don't really feel it. And that's quite preferable when you're trying to sleep, I think. But generally, how much movement is your plane doing during a flight? Depends what I request. I'm just saying that when you come into land, for example, you do a lot of circling over Heathrow. It's just tedious when you're right on the edge, isn't it? Because you're just feeling the whole thing back and forth.
Starting point is 00:22:23 It's like being on a roller coaster. So it's better to be in the middle of the plane, I think. But I would never pick a middle seat. I mean, that is absolute deviant behaviour. As a tall man, are you forced to take the outside seat on the waltzes? I don't think I've been on the waltzes as an adult. No, you'd have to be outside, yeah, to absorb the... To be honest, I'm not going on the waltzes.
Starting point is 00:22:45 I do like the Waltzes. Nah, it's not for me. Not for you. What are you getting out of it? Shit fairgrounds. What are you going on? Bumper cars. Right.
Starting point is 00:22:55 For sure. Probably ghost train. Yeah, okay, fair. But ghost train is just like spraying air on your face, isn't it? Yes, crap. It's absolutely shit but i think also i'm not really going on anything if it i don't think it should be portable if it takes you more than 12 feet in the air so that's my general cut off okay fine i'm not going
Starting point is 00:23:17 on like a big one that spins you around i mean i just cannot see i don't care what anyone you can show me all the certificates you like i'm'm not, I'm not trusting it. Yeah. Because you, by the time you're allowed in, you don't see who's been putting this together. You know what I mean? It's already done.
Starting point is 00:23:37 I also think there's always an element of danger with a traveling fairground. Like it's always like a bit like it could start to kick off around the punching machine. Yes. Of which there are many of them. Did you used to go around the punching machine? No, I've tried a couple of times, but there's just so many nowadays. The punching machines had a real kind of resurgence, one would suggest.
Starting point is 00:23:57 They had one at Talk Sport when all the boxers used to come in. Right, okay. And they used to make them punch it. I don't know why they're allowed to do that. They do what they want. They're boxers, mate. Right, okay. And they used to make them punch it. I don't know why they're allowed to do that. Do what they want. They're boxers, mate. Yeah, but still.
Starting point is 00:24:08 They're not molly-coddled footballers. I just sort of like see like Bellew in the jungle. He's sort of got... What was he like? He's putting up with a lot of... I only saw one ep, but there was this little tit. I think it's a radio guy.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I think he was on... Not the only one. Oh, Sam Thompson. He won it, didn't he? Right, him. He was being an excruciating little tit, and Bellew, I think, started off not liking him, and then it kind of warmed to him a little bit.
Starting point is 00:24:42 But he could just... He could punch everybody out. Like but he could just he could punch everybody out like yeah he could just punch everyone on the set Farage
Starting point is 00:24:50 the rest of them but he just punched everyone out and just got the paper out and put his feet up to start reading with his bodies around him like he's some kind of
Starting point is 00:24:57 Schwarzenegger yeah but you could just punch everyone out and punch all of the staff they can't like they must be they must be
Starting point is 00:25:03 there must have been a conversation that we need to, even the security guys, surely, a boxer could spark them all out.
Starting point is 00:25:12 So, like, you would need to double up on them and sort of go, right, this is the plan if Farage goes mental, this is the plan
Starting point is 00:25:18 if the lad from The Only Ways Chelsea goes mental, and this, and this is the plan if Bellew goes mental. And I imagine manpower-wise, Bellew's more expensive to look after. You're sending the crocodile in, aren't you?
Starting point is 00:25:31 You are, yeah. For Bellew. What's Farage? I mean, if Farage goes mental, he's basically just going to be racist. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but if he just goes physically, you have to be able to physically restrain all of these people. There must be a plan.
Starting point is 00:25:42 There must be a plan to subdue Bellew because he's a killer machine. Have you just been watching the film Creed? Is that what it is? He's the bad guy in Creed, isn't he? Is he? Oh, yes, he is. Isn't he at Everton?
Starting point is 00:25:56 Isn't the big fight at Goodison Park? I think they filmed it when he fought at Goodison Park, I believe. But anyway, I was really surprised when Tony Bellew got his own BBC podcast because some of his political views are very, I believe. Yeah, but anyway, I was really surprised when Tony Bellew got his own BBC podcast because some of his political views are very, very niche. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:10 Yeah. It's all about him being angry, isn't it? I'm Tony Bellew and I'm angry. He went through a phase of like- Oh, good. Tony Bellew's angry. Just after he retired, he went through a phase of obviously being at boxing events and being interviewed by people, asking him who he thought would be and all that kind of usual stuff.
Starting point is 00:26:25 And he went through a phase of just complete non-sequiturs, just occasionally going that I've said before, I believe paedophiles should be shot dead in the street. It's just what I believe. And it's like, okay, fine, but that's not really what we're here to talk about today. He just really wants
Starting point is 00:26:41 to mete out justice all the time. And I don't know what he was like in the jungle because I didn't watch it, but presumably he was fairly popular, was he? He seems like an alright guy. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, he seems alright. But I guess once you get out of a game like that,
Starting point is 00:26:56 you have to be quite deftly PR'd at a time where you're probably not looking to have people work on you all that much. Speaking like um justice and stuff um jordan from vgc uh the video game podcast we do he uh he in his household um he gets to watch um quite a lot of those um facebook videos of um of pedophile hunters oh yeah and apparently apparently... Apparently, they'll do stuff like, if you apologise now, we'll let you go. And then the paedophile apologises. And then they go, you're still fucking nicked.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Right. But then there was one that they did a sting on, and it was someone from their own group, their own paedophile hunting group. Wow. Because that's the thing that happens more than more than most times isn't it it's a lot of these a lot of like they're quite right wing i'm not saying all these lads have got many of these lads are right wing but like a lot of the right wing lot that
Starting point is 00:27:56 they're always they always there's always one that gets caught with his hands in the in the in the in the pedo tail effectively yeah and um and and the same with it and the same with the pedo tail, effectively. Yeah. And the same with these pedo hunters. It's all just a bit like Dr. Heal-I-Self, isn't it? So the main one who had that Netflix show was a guy called Stinson Hunter, wasn't it? Yeah, and his main press shot that makes me laugh, he's kind of in a deserted, abandoned church
Starting point is 00:28:24 with a with a um a baseball cap and a bag and that's the that's the picture that he uses more than anything else yeah and he's sort of pretending he's like this kind of nathan drake uncharted kind of indiana jones character hunting for for wrongans wherever they may be i think he's got like a it does a pretty weirdly like and quite um some would say maybe ironically he does a think he's got like a does a pretty weirdly like and quite some would say maybe ironically he does a big he's got does a good line
Starting point is 00:28:47 in like loving loving the old conspiracy theory on Twitter because I watched that Netflix episode and I looked at his Twitter profile
Starting point is 00:28:53 and it's a lot of it's about Jeffrey Epstein yeah okay yeah well it you know dovetails nicely doesn't it there's a lot of
Starting point is 00:28:59 a lot of the a lot of these things let's just say it dovetails I don't think there's anything nice about it no no no it's just dovetails it's just dovetails. I don't think there's anything nice about it. No, no, no. It just dovetails. It just dovetails.
Starting point is 00:29:08 But can you imagine sort of being in a group and going, you can't find me guilty. I'm one of you. You have betrayed the whole group. But you see, projection in like human, in public life is so obvious as well.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Like all the stuff Trump comes out with. He basically accuses everyone else of what he's doing. Yeah, exactly. Over and over again. Anyway, Peter, let's go. Hopefully things improve for 2024.
Starting point is 00:29:31 True that. I don't have any resolutions. I just want to... Do you know what my resolution is? To do everything I can to make sure that you are happy and healthy, Peter. Oh, thank you, man.

Starting point is 00:30:11 might be I don't think there's much way we can get out of this one it's going to be worse than the last time it's difficult it is difficult
