It's the Luke and Pete Show. It is Monday the 15th of January.
I'm Pete Donaldson.
I'm joined by Mr. Lukey Moore.
And I was midway, as we started that show,
through what could only be described as a rather strong kind of sort of snot.
And now I've got something caught at the back of my throat.
There's nowhere to start, sure.
Do you want me to pick up and then you can mute yourself
or just sort yourself out?
Yes, please. Yes, let me do that. Thank you. On Thursday, the show just before the weekend, we had... just know where to start sure know where to start do you want me to pick up and then you can mute yourself or just sort yourself out yes please
yes let me do that
thank you
on Thursday
the show just before the weekend
we had
I knew you were going to do that
I just knew he was going to do that
on Thursday
we had three new players
enter the game
want to rock and roll all night
party every day
rock and roll all night so Pete I um i don't know if your mute button's working properly mate
oh god yeah i hope no one found out how i snort
how have you been what you've been up to you've been okay i've been all right mate i've been all
right still still not cleared the um the cardboard blockage in my garden.
Still not loving police.
I told you I went to go see Ice Cube, didn't I?
Contemporary of the good doctor.
The good doc.
Yeah, everything's alright.
We are quite uniquely placed here on our street, quite amusingly.
Everybody in our street gets power cuts apart from us.
We never get power cuts. Well, that's going to make
people suspicious.
I know.
And I'm exactly
the sort of person
to be messing about
with people's electrics.
Peter and Sarah
have taken all
of the electrics.
Oh.
Why don't you get them?
Oh, dear.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I'm just forever
sort of charging
people's phones. Are you being serious? It's because it's't know. I'm just forever charging people's phones.
Are you being serious? It's causing its own
troubles, I think. Yeah, it's really interesting. I think we must be
on a different loop or something, but there's not
a day this week that I haven't
chucked over a
extension cable for
the neighbours and the neighbours past that
to charge their mobiles and stuff.
They might just be, you know,
cheaping out.
You should be charging them because you're an electricity builder.
The price of electricity these days, mate.
But can you imagine if they were just tricking us
and they just wanted free electricity?
I think there's a reasonable chance of that.
Yes, good stuff.
I think there's a reasonable chance,
and I don't mean this with any kind of ill feeling,
and I take no pleasure in saying it,
I think there's a reasonable chance that
some people on your street see you
as something of a useful idiot.
Soft touch. Yeah, useful idiot. Soft touch.
A man with all of the voltage and
wattage and ampage. Yeah, this man looks like he's
been electrocuted a few times. Let's go see him.
So Peter, on Thursday
I did actually ask Instagram,
our beloved
Luke and Pete show community
on Instagram to get in touch with a couple of questions just to so we can get you know get a
little feel what they want us to talk about and we didn't actually get to any of them apart from
the car related ones um and I'm rest assured guys when there is an update on the car thing
uh people will tell us I'm sure um but I do want to get stuck into a couple of the questions now
because like I said we didn't get around to them um this one from cullet which is a good name i guess it's just an instagram name
i don't know what it means anyway i would love to know what pete was like at school
p.s i imagine luke was exactly the same as he is now
i'll tell you i'll tell you what i think based on my experience color and then pete can give us the
real answer i think people's probably very shy at school,
a little bit out there,
probably didn't talk to any girls,
and had a close, tight-knit group of friends,
but wasn't really very mainstream,
and was also very skinny.
Is that fair?
Yeah, that's fair.
I think, yeah, not really having much confidence to have a wide circle of friends,
but, you know, and I think people,
like,
Sarah's got a few friends
who are quite like,
da-da,
like quite,
like,
expressive and,
and,
and,
and,
and they're out there.
Well,
I just kind of like,
start to draw in a little bit
and I become quite,
I don't,
I don't really talk
when someone else is doing
all of the talking effectively.
That's how we've sort of continued our relationship. Sorry, what was that Matt? I wasn't really talk when someone else is doing all of the talking effectively. That's how we've sort of continued our relationship.
Sorry, what was that, Matt? I wasn't really listening.
And friends that I know have seen me in that down and out,
and they go, oh, yeah, I forget that you,
when there's someone who's quite expressive,
you kind of shut down a bit.
So I think it's just a lot of that, really.
Were you a high achiever at school?
Tied in with...
No, underachiever for my skill level
is pretty much every...
as they said on every school report.
Class clown, isn't it?
Class clown.
Classic.
Classic class clown.
You'd probably get more done.
What were some of your best jokes and performances?
Reading ahead.
If we were doing a reading in the classroom,
reading ahead to see if there's a swear word in there.
Classic.
Making sure I heard that one out.
Someone's got to do it.
Someone's got to take it.
Miss, miss, I want to read next.
I said, fuck.
I remember there was a...
Tea leaf on the roof, a man saying, bastard, yeah.
What's that from?
Tea leaf on the roof.
What's tea leaf on the Roof?
I think it was a man who stole lead off a roof I think we only had books about heroes
Something to aspire to, a man who steals lead off a roof
It's your classic aspirational story
That's brilliant
I used to love reading it
It did in the reading ahead
It was good, wasn't it? I enjoyed that That's brilliant. I used to love doing the reading at class. Doing the reading ahead.
Yeah, it was good, wasn't it?
I enjoyed that.
I enjoyed doing it. I remember we did a Macbeth in English
and I was given the character of Thane of Ross, right?
Right.
It's a minor role.
I can't remember what he even got up to, to be honest.
Exactly.
The more I think about it,
the more I think Mr. Dunstan was out of his fucking mind
giving me that.
At very least, I was, at
very least, I was a Macduff.
Right, okay, yeah.
At very least, I was
every single villager in Dunstan inn.
Or wherever it was.
At the very least,
I was every character in that book.
I said, Mr. Dunstan, give me the witches. I'll do it all.
Give me the witches. I'll do every part.
I'll bring in Maycop and the thing was annoying
now I understand
I totally understand
why now
because obviously
he wanted some of the other
class mates
to be more confident
to come out their shell
I was incredulous
at the time
I was like
you're giving Michael Sherwood
doesn't even want to speak
you're giving him a bath
that really precocious
kid in the sims
someone's got you
you cow
that was me
I loved that I loved I loved doing i loved um i love doing that i love
doing the experiments in science right okay none of the write-ups just the experiments yeah i mean
i would say stealing magnesium ribbon and setting fire to it isn't really experiment you're just
setting fire stuff listen you say that my friend got um my friend got his arm set on fire up by a bunsen burner and that seems like
too much like surely just a patch on his arm not the entire arm what was he spraying or
he spread something on well this is the thing i was about to tell you a big flammable arm the plot
thickens for two reasons right one because there was no teacher in the class at the time because
the teacher had to do something when the bunsen Burns were on. Big no-no.
Second, I don't think the lab coat was
regulation.
You had lab coats?
Hello, little old
Fontelroy.
You'd put a, mate,
trust me, it was
a fucking poor
comprehensive school
and he still got the
scars to this day
all over his elbow.
Good God.
So the lab coats
weren't up to code.
Better off not having them
on at all to be honest.
I remember like,
do you remember like
fume cupboards in science?
Yeah.
In chemistry.
Never saw them being used
ever.
People just put cups in them.
What's weird about our school
was that we didn't do
individual science.
We just did combined science.
So we didn't do physics,
biology and chemistry.
Well, you didn't have separate? No, biology, biology and chemistry. Well,
you didn't do,
you didn't have separate.
No,
it was all the same.
Yeah,
I had combined science,
but you could choose to do.
No,
we couldn't.
Physics,
biology,
chemistry.
You had to do,
you had to do it all.
Yeah,
I do it all.
Yeah.
Well,
yeah,
I do it all,
but it was all like one award.
It was all one,
two GCSEs I think it was worth,
wasn't it?
What's the worst thing
that ever happened to you at school?
Uh, ooh, like one award it was all one two GCSEs I think it was worth wasn't it what's the worst thing that ever happened to you at school er ooh
I don't know actually
I got punched in the face
by Peter Carley
the bully
why did he do that
because I tried
to attack him
say again
because I tried
to attack him
why did you do that
because he was saying
that I wasn't
going to go to
Carlton Camp
what
which was a camp
i'd carlton camp was the place that people would go um for like a little two-day trip right it was
like you know you do you do it in the scouts you do it in the um august you do it yeah carlton camp
um and i think it was an old priory or something yeah well it's been you know it's been standing
for a long time you know beautiful, beautiful part of the world.
But, yeah, I mean, you would go with your school, but it was only, and it would be your school and another school, and they'd mix together, and you'd have a right old last
That sounds amazing.
Possibly fight.
Yeah, amazing.
Of course it was.
And you got to smooch girls that didn't go to your school.
And I...
Did you do that?
And, yes, I did, actually, because, as I said, I look like a colleague.
Oh, lovely.
And I, to Hadaways, baby, as I said, I look like Macaulay Culkin. Oh, lovely. And I, to Hathaway's Baby Don't Hurt Me.
Anyway, and the...
What a picture.
What a picture.
And, yeah, Peter Carley said,
you're not going to go to Carlton Camp
because you've already been with the orchestra.
And I had already been with the orchestra.
What were you playing?
But I didn't want...
Violin.
I didn't want to go with the orchestra.
And it, to be honest, it
and so I went, no I'm not.
I am going to go to Carlton Camp and go up and try to
hit him. The thing about
Peter Carley,
wore a signet ring, much bigger than me.
I don't know what I was thinking.
He gave me a right
old punch.
And that's why I don't generally
go around attacking people
anymore
did you end up
going to Carlton camp
I did go to Carlton camp
and I don't even think
he went to Carlton camp
so he had the last laugh
Peter Corley
you and your signet rings
or me
I wonder what he's doing now
without my signet rings
what do you reckon
he's doing now
I don't know
I'm not that long ago
he's alright
could sub him back in
it'd still be the
Luke and Pete show
it would
yeah there was only a couple of Peters you always think there's more Peters in the world than there are the guy, he's all right. Could sub him back in. It'd still be the Luke and Pete show. It would, yeah.
There was only a couple of Peters.
You always think there's more Peters in the world than there are.
And they're not as popular.
They're not as prevalent.
Yeah, it seems like it would be a common name.
So what's an example day at Colton Camp?
Well, to be honest, Luke,
I think Paul Southern87 on Twitter noticed a news story
about Paul McCartney and John Lennon
mutually, not mutually masturbating.
Does that mean you masturbate each other?
Yeah, that's well known though, isn't it?
Yeah, well, they jerked off in front of each other basically.
Yeah.
They were at a party, they were drunk.
I remember at the orchestra version of Carlton Camp,
I was in a group of lads who were a bit older than me
who had cool computers
like Amigas
and Atari STs
whereas I did not
have any of those things
and they also
had
and they also did
like role playing
and stuff
and I thought
that was very cool
until the night
that they all
just started jerking off
in a room
really
yeah
we were
like we were in
like this room
it was like
kind of scout hut
we just you know sat around I think we'd finished role playing I think was like a kind of scout hut. We just sat around.
I think we'd finished role-playing, I think.
I was a couple of years younger than them, I think,
or a year younger than them, maybe.
And they just started jerking off,
and I was like, I have no idea what's happening here.
How old were you?
Absolutely bizarre stuff.
I don't know, I was about 13, maybe?
And I was a bit like, this is a bit weird.
Yeah.
Yeah, never mind.
Listen, it's the early 90 yeah yeah it's the early 90s
it's the early 90s
but in the words
of Paul McCartney
it was good
harmless fun
yeah
that story
I've no idea
why that's come around again
because that was a story
like five years ago
yeah
is it because
somebody took a picture
of him on the train
not that long ago
maybe he's got he's promoting another memoir or something.
I don't know.
You won't believe how many times I masturbated with John Lennon.
It seems to me like...
I mean, do I understand why it's a story?
I suppose I do, but it does seem quite...
I think the image is quite arresting, isn't it?
I'm going to come, Paul.
I'm going to come. Oh, no, wait, hang on. Dude that was john that's john that's john that's a bit of john it's a bit of john do it start
talking a bit like this oh yeah he's a bit more sneering yeah yeah yeah there's a blog back in
the day of john photos of john lennon in which he looks like the worst roommate of all time
basically every photo of john lennon in the 80s.
Late 70s, every photo of him.
Doing that stupid walk that he does,
like Ghostbusters, the real Ghostbusters.
There's also that photo of the bed being made up
for John and Yoko.
Yes, classic.
That's pretty good.
I love that.
I absolutely love that.
I think John Lennon would probably have been in.
Oh, yeah.
We're going to get more listeners saying that. No, I think John Lennon would probably have been a bellend. Oh yeah. He could not have We're going to get more listeners saying that.
No I think he is.
Anyone who's got
anything about them
it would be
Cleese-esque
his fall from
fucking grave.
I often wonder that
because obviously
Ringo is you know
just keeps himself
to himself.
George Harrison
He's in love.
Don't send me any more stuff.
I'm not signing them
after November the 7th.
George Harrison was a genuinely sensitive character more stuff I'm not signing them until November the 7th yeah George Harrison
was a genuinely
sensitive character
I think
a quiet guy
and Paul McCartney
is just a bit
cringe isn't he
Lennon would be
like
please now
definitely
it's a great shout
it's the same energy
the GB News Lennon
it's the same energy
for sure
GB Lennon
and I think
I listened to a really
interesting interview
with Stuart Lee
on the Rob Brydon podcast.
I don't know if you've heard it.
It's kind of,
I think,
I think you were pulling
quarts out of this last show.
I was, yeah.
You were loving this interview.
And Stuart Lee was talking
about John Cleese on that as well.
Right.
Talking about how like,
you know,
it's really interesting
because obviously
he revolutionised comedy entirely.
Yeah.
But he, he left Python quite early didn't he
he only did three seasons I think
and they did one without him and he was
like gagging to leave and
do some more interesting stuff
because I think he felt that the rest of them
were kind of just leaning into the catchphrase and leaning into this
and leaning into that and stuff but he was
and you know he had a moderately successful
yeah for like the redo's and stuff but he was I don't know he had a moderately successful yeah
for like the
the re-dos and stuff
and the reunions
and Hollywood Bowl
that was quite late on
wasn't it
but yeah
like I loved Python
when I was a kid
I think it's
when a young man
looks back on his life
and sort of sees
things that really brings
brought him
and his father
together
or a child
and their dad together
I think comedy
is like such a big thing for me my dad like part like partridge and and i was telling steve coogan
in the interview i was saying like it's it's we came out of watching alpha papa i think because
i had a screening and i got my dad in and we went over the road and we were just admiring the pixel
density on a led wall and i was like we're just all a bit
porridge we're just all a bit fucking alan parker yeah definitely yeah he loves he loves he loves
the sad thing is he doesn't really watch comedy anymore he just watches talking pictures um
sending me pictures of sending me videos of women getting hit and going you wouldn't say
that on telly nowadays i was like you. I was like, you're watching it now, Dad.
You're watching it now.
Like, idiot.
And he just watches Al Jazeera
and Euronews and Sky News
and all the hits in rotation.
It's bizarre.
It's absolutely bizarre stuff.
It really is.
And what was Steve Coogan
like to interview?
Nice, yeah.
I think he's,
it must be quite, I... It must be quite...
I think it must be quite boring
if you're quite an interesting character
who has done so much...
Because you interviewed Yannucci as well, didn't you?
Yeah, I think it's...
I think it must be quite difficult for guys like that
because you're on the press circuit
and you're only ever sort of...
I could get away with doing like 20, 25 minutes and if I didn't want to put out the video, put out the audio on the show, I didn't
really need to, um, so I could just cut it down to, like, a tight three, and then get it out, but
it's just, I think it's, I think if you're a, I think if you're a comedian, and you're doing those
kind of tours, um, to the different radio stations and stuff, you must talk to some, like, you know,
radio DJs are thick, at the best of times, you must be, like. You must talk to some... You know, radio DJs are thick at the best of times.
You must have to do some really fucking tawdry, boring, formulaic shite.
I'm not saying it's the same.
I'm not saying I'm doing anything different, but I'm just saying that it must be quite
No, I think your interview with Uchi sticks in my mind.
It was very good.
I enjoyed it.
Yeah, Uchi.
When we did the Ramble Tour in 2019 2019 i was the one who did all the press
for that all the radio stuff for that and um obviously we're very grateful to have the press
and that kind of stuff but when you go to town go to that particular town like that that bbc radio
station would interview you or one of them had to go literally go to bbc radio what's the name of
the building that's down in bloomsbury? North of Oxford Street.
I can't remember what it's called now.
Might be named after Terry Wogan.
Is that Bloomsbury?
Huh?
Is that even Bloomsbury?
Is that Bloomsbury?
The one with the paedophile statues outside?
I don't understand the question.
The Broadcasting House has got the...
No, it's not Broadcasting House.
It's like a little building.
So you go across...
Next to Broadcasting House.
Oh, the little...
Six Music Building. Near... Yes. Near Crackanon for kind of... so you go across next to Broadcasting House oh the little six music building
near
near
cracking on for kind of
yeah I had to go there
and sit in a room
for like five hours
and talk
I think I did one with you
I think we did BBC London together
yeah we did
but I did loads of them
and
and
the point I was just going to make
was that
it's
it's clear that like
say 50% of them have never heard you
before or have no interest and 50 do like you so the ones that do like you is quite interesting
because they actually ask questions that are quite interesting but the other ones are just like
reading off the press release and it's like yeah have some fun yeah make it easy for them or just
um just syndicate it yeah it doesn't make a difference i don't how many times i must
have been asked on that tour whether it was really true that we started the podcast in my kitchen
about 80 times and that's me there's um imagine what it's like for steve coogan i i think that
on those sort of isdn line you will occasionally have a you'll occasionally have um people sort of ISDN line, you will occasionally have a, you'll occasionally have people sort of come on air
and they're doing interviews as backup really late doors.
Because I had a mate who went on an ISDN
and he thought he was interviewing a rugby player,
but he's actually interviewing a chef.
And they have the same name.
I can't remember who that is,
but one was a rugby player, one was a chef.
He wrote the notes for one
and had to freestyle with the other.
That would be like a Monty Python thing.
Yeah, it's good stuff.
Try and apply one thing.
Do you like eggs, for example?
You know, all that stuff.
Yeah, speaking of Monty Python then,
it's really interesting to me,
when I first started visiting the US quite a lot with my family,
my wife's family,
that the cut through of Monty Python in the US is huge.
Far bigger than it is here. I don't think I've ever seen a Monty Python in the US is huge. Far bigger than it is here.
I don't think I've ever seen a Monty Python episode broadcast on TV here.
No, you used to have seasons, didn't you?
BBC Two had seasons in the 80s and 90s.
Yeah, maybe late night on the BBC Two.
In the US, it seems to have been on all the time.
Mimi and her husband, I am her husband,
Mimi and her brother,
they'll be reciting it to each other over dinner
and stuff yeah it's good stuff it was good it wasn't a break in the show i can't even remember
we haven't the big um foot of rory which is actually a size it's about a
squish us yeah let's take a break because otherwise we'll be in trouble We'll be back.

Who's the American Monty Python guy who used to do the animations in the films and stuff?
He's been saying some trite stuff lately.
Has he?
The sixth Python or fifth Python or whatever it was. You know guy there's six of them anyway wasn't there was there uh chapman cleese gilliam idol jones and palin
yeah gilliam wasn't an original member there was he he was like the director wasn't he
what the guy in all the animations he's now been cancelled has he he's not been cancelled i think
he's been saying some weird stuff i I can't remember what it is.
Everyone's got something
in their locker.
Everyone's got...
He's been saying
some stuff recently.
Was it in 2014
they were about to get together
and do some live shows again
because John Cleese got divorced?
I think that was the case.
What a gift.
What a gift.
What a portent of our future.
Exactly.
Peter, so we've got
the second half of the show.
It's not really the second half
because we did the advert break so late.
The only other thing I've got here
that I think is worthy of chatting about
is from our friend Lou,
who's been in touch saying,
what is Pete most looking forward to in 2024?
Okay.
Yeah.
Anything?
What am I looking forward to? Oh, sorry. I thought, what were you looking forward to oh sorry i thought what were you looking forward
to yeah it doesn't matter um what am i looking forward to in 2024 i'm looking forward to some
some peace and bloody quiet i'm looking forward to um a certain car um entering my life oh i'm
looking forward to a um i'm looking forward to everyone just calm the fuck down like
it's like i get the sense that like the dial has been turned up a little bit on the air fryer
we've got the extra crispy um i bought one for my father-in-law who didn't want it so then i had two
air fries briefly and then i gave one to a friend um so they got free air fryer and i got a bigger air fryer so everything all's fair in love and war
on air fryers quite frankly and now i can fit a whole bloody chicken in there you're absolutely
flying i'm frying or frying frying on gas except not gas so you're using the air fryer still um
speaking of your car again um channel nem on x i don't know what the real name is said i'm just
listening to the app.
Don't worry, officer, I'm eating a sub.
And you were talking about Pete selling his Jag.
Why doesn't Pete hold a raffle for the car
at, say, £5 a ticket?
He's not going to break even selling it,
so he might as well not break even in style.
Maybe I'll have some fun with it, yeah.
Is there laws against running a raffle?
I get the sense that over a certain amount of money...
It's regulated, maybe. You do sometimes see, like, on YouTube and stuff, laws against running a raffle? I get the sense that over a certain amount of money...
You do sometimes see, like, on YouTube
and stuff, people, car guys,
they sell their stuff on...
Instead of selling cars, they stick them on a raffle
and, you know, you do your little cord
and stuff. Kind of makes sense, I suppose.
How much did you pay for the Jag again?
I think it was like £11,000
I think at the end.
So you need probably about £2,500 tickets to break even.
Yeah.
The problem with that is, Luke,
we've spoken about all of the Jacky's problems, haven't we?
Oh, yeah.
But people are only paying a fiver.
That's the beauty of it.
It's got to be worth a fiver.
Yeah, it's got to be worth a fiver, yeah.
But what about all of the other people
who are annoyed that they paid a fiver
and didn't get the...
Well, I'll tell you what will happen.
With the real Donaldson smell.
Only about 100 people will enter.
You'll get 500 quid for it
and it'll be even worse if you sold it.
Yeah.
I mean, I will say that I will...
There is...
I know for a fact
there's a packet of Flamin' Hot
Cheetos in the...
Cheetos?
Which you can have...
Cheetos.
Cheetos.
Wotsits.
Wotsits are starting to do Flamin' Hot Wotsits. I mean, not Cheetos, Cheetos, what's it's,
what's it's a starting to a flaming hot.
What's it's something that Cheetos,
what's it's a good snack.
And you can have them as well.
So, you know,
are you looking for a lot of people,
a lot of other more serious podcasts are talking about how this is the biggest year for elections in modern history.
Right.
Okay.
It's not just the UK and the US has's ones all over the world um any kind of
predictions for the future of civilization society knowing that peter uh everyone skips towards the
right and um populism uh further we would imagine and we are and then that emboldens your big your
big xi jin pings and stuff uh they invite vietnam one and it's all over. So I think that's probably going to happen in 2024.
How does China invading Taiwan affect us?
Well, US will have to kick off
and then everyone will be kicking off.
North Korea will probably have a crack at South Korea
and, you know, it's just all...
And we have to get involved.
Then we're all fucked, aren't we?
Not me, though.
I'll be watching Friends.
You'll be watching the American Office in bed.
I'll be watching the American Office, yeah.
There we go.
Well, please don't ask now.
I'm absolutely delighted that I asked.
Hey, I found the...
Speaking of losing weight and not losing weight,
I found the off-license at the end of my road
sells delicious bigger juice,
which I think we spoke about
on the ramble
about 15 years ago.
It was a real trope for me
for a very, very long time.
It's a Jamaican soda, right?
A Jamaican soda.
And it is the most delicious.
It is the most,
I don't know how they're selling it
with the old sugar tax,
but it is the most delicious drink that you have ever tasted,
and I've recently got back into it.
What flavour are you going with? Fruit punch?
I've just noticed, it's just the fruit punch flavour, classic.
Yeah, I've recently got back into it,
and I'm so happy that the shop down the end of my street sells it.
And even thinking about it today, it's making my mouth water.
Better than Prime?
Better than Prime.
Why has Biggerjuice never got its flowers?
Why has Biggerjuice never got its props?
What about that?
Are you a fan of Supermalt?
I used to flirt with Supermalt back in the day.
There was a Supermalt advert on telly a couple of times.
Supermalt at one point enjoyed so much income.
It's like a malted drink,
isn't it?
It's like a fizzy
malted drink.
It's not fizzy, is it?
I think it is, yeah.
I don't think it's fizzy.
I think it's...
You can't fizz malt.
That's insanity.
Yeah.
It would just separate.
I have that phrase.
I remember it tasted...
It tastes like...
It tastes a bit like
if Ovaltine
was cold
was a soup
yeah
and a savoury soup
Ovaltine
yeah
Guinness had the alcohol
taken out of it or something
that's the one
that's the yeah
that's absolutely
right up the
right straight
yeah
it is nice
but it's not something
I'd sort of class it
as the
next to like nourishment
nourishment's weird I've never tasted that but I next to nourishment. Nourishment's weird.
I've never tasted that,
but I sometimes see the cans
just garden around.
Nourishment is for people who are on drugs,
just to get,
I don't have to,
I've got,
people who are,
you know,
they're popping off to do something,
take something,
or just be out of the way.
They're always running,
and nourishment is for the man on the go,
or the woman on the go.
It's a drink's it's a drink
it's a mirror placement you just bang it down it's done i don't have to worry about food i can get on
with with what i'm doing but it's uh it's it's almost exclusively uh drank by people who whose
nutrition is um needs to be taken very quickly i think right okay and supermodels just reading
there supermodels developed in the 70s for the nigerian. Nice, I like it, yeah. Great bit.
I had no idea about that.
I thought the supermarket
was Caribbean in origin,
but obviously not.
Bigger juice is Caribbean
in origin for sure.
But yeah, nourishment
is a kind of,
I thought nourishment
was basically for people
who went to the gym
before they invented
all that proper good protein stuff.
Oh, what, do you reckon
it was like an 80s thing?
I think so.
Yeah, I just actually drink it
when I don't have time for lunch.
So you base that entire assessment on what you used to do for convenience yourself?
No, but you'd see people drinking it who were off to collect, I think I would say, yeah.
There we go.
Anyway, what I've noticed in London as a young man.
We've got to go and get some nourishment ourselves.
London Tales.
Hopefully this has been some audio nourishment for your ears.
Yeah.
I mean, that's all Huel is. It's just a fancy, it's just Silicon Valley's got some audio nourishment for your ears yeah I mean that's all Huel is
it's just a fancy
it's just a
Silicon Valley's
got all the nourishment
stop it now
because that's a
potential sponsor
it's got pea protein
that's a potential sponsor
next you'll be on to
Athletic Greens
