Starting point is 00:00:42 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
Starting point is 00:01:03 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
Starting point is 00:01:12 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
Starting point is 00:01:34 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.
Starting point is 00:02:05 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.
Starting point is 00:02:15 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.
Starting point is 00:02:22 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
Starting point is 00:02:35 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
Starting point is 00:02:53 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
Starting point is 00:03:07 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
Starting point is 00:03:24 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
Starting point is 00:03:55 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?
Starting point is 00:04:19 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,
Starting point is 00:04:30 like, expressive and, and, and, and, and they're out there. Well, I just kind of like,
Starting point is 00:04:37 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.
Starting point is 00:04:51 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
Starting point is 00:05:11 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?
Starting point is 00:05:23 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.
Starting point is 00:05:34 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
Starting point is 00:05:57 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
Starting point is 00:06:10 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.
Starting point is 00:06:24 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.
Starting point is 00:06:39 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
Starting point is 00:06:49 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
Starting point is 00:06:57 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
Starting point is 00:07:14 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.
Starting point is 00:07:48 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
Starting point is 00:07:58 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,
Starting point is 00:08:07 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
Starting point is 00:08:17 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.
Starting point is 00:08:26 No, it was all the same. Yeah, I had combined science, but you could choose to do. No, we couldn't. Physics,
Starting point is 00:08:31 biology, chemistry. You had to do, you had to do it all. Yeah, I do it all. Yeah. Well,
Starting point is 00:08:37 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?
Starting point is 00:08:46 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
Starting point is 00:08:56 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
Starting point is 00:09:03 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.
Starting point is 00:09:34 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.
Starting point is 00:09:45 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.
Starting point is 00:10:00 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
Starting point is 00:10:12 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
Starting point is 00:10:26 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
Starting point is 00:10:33 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
Starting point is 00:10:40 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.
Starting point is 00:10:51 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?
Starting point is 00:11:09 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
Starting point is 00:11:25 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
Starting point is 00:11:34 and I thought that was very cool until the night that they all just started jerking off in a room really yeah
Starting point is 00:11:40 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,
Starting point is 00:11:50 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.
Starting point is 00:12:02 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
Starting point is 00:12:11 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
Starting point is 00:12:22 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...
Starting point is 00:12:39 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,
Starting point is 00:13:09 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.
Starting point is 00:13:22 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
Starting point is 00:13:33 fucking grave. I often wonder that because obviously Ringo is you know just keeps himself to himself. George Harrison He's in love.
Starting point is 00:13:41 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
Starting point is 00:13:49 and Paul McCartney is just a bit cringe isn't he Lennon would be like please now definitely it's a great shout
Starting point is 00:13:57 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
Starting point is 00:14:07 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.
Starting point is 00:14:14 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
Starting point is 00:14:22 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
Starting point is 00:14:38 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
Starting point is 00:14:49 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
Starting point is 00:14:57 and sort of sees things that really brings brought him and his father together or a child and their dad together I think comedy
Starting point is 00:15:06 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.
Starting point is 00:15:45 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.
Starting point is 00:16:00 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...
Starting point is 00:16:11 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
Starting point is 00:16:39 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.
Starting point is 00:17:00 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.
Starting point is 00:17:27 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.
Starting point is 00:17:38 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
Starting point is 00:17:48 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
Starting point is 00:17:57 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
Starting point is 00:18:12 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
Starting point is 00:18:53 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.
Starting point is 00:19:07 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,
Starting point is 00:19:19 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,
Starting point is 00:19:41 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.

Starting point is 00:20:42 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.
Starting point is 00:21:08 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.
Starting point is 00:21:18 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.
Starting point is 00:21:28 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?
Starting point is 00:21:44 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
Starting point is 00:22:32 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,
Starting point is 00:22:55 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...
Starting point is 00:23:11 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.
Starting point is 00:23:29 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
Starting point is 00:23:43 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.
Starting point is 00:23:52 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.
Starting point is 00:24:03 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,
Starting point is 00:24:14 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.
Starting point is 00:24:47 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.
Starting point is 00:25:05 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,
Starting point is 00:25:20 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?
Starting point is 00:25:35 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?
Starting point is 00:25:51 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?
Starting point is 00:26:09 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
Starting point is 00:26:28 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.
Starting point is 00:26:37 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
Starting point is 00:26:47 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
Starting point is 00:26:54 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
Starting point is 00:27:02 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,
Starting point is 00:27:10 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,
Starting point is 00:27:23 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
Starting point is 00:27:47 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
Starting point is 00:27:55 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.
Starting point is 00:28:04 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.
Starting point is 00:28:24 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
