Starting point is 00:00:00 It's the Luke and Pete Show. It's Monday the 6th of November. I'm Pete Donaldson. I'm joined by Mr. Lukey Moore. First order of business, Luke, on this Monday the 6th of November, I have to admit a crime. A Luke and Pete Shaw themed crime. Oh, Jesus. What have you done? Oh, Jesus. I have used four double A's from the battery daddy.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Oh, what? What's going on? Why? We didn't have any double A's ordered in the office and I needed them for a Zoom record. But don't worry, Luke, I didn't actually put them in the machine in the end
Starting point is 00:00:49 because I managed to get some juice out of the ones that were already in there. But yeah, I was very close to sapping some of the important cell energy from the batteries. Well, someone said that's what the battery daddy's for, right? Yeah, exactly. That's what I thought. Well, I said, for crying out loud,
Starting point is 00:01:04 we've got a battery daddy. Amy didn't know what i was talking about uh neither did um taylor or any of the other people in the office rory wasn't in um so i just said birthday wasn't it it was rory's birthday so he was off i don't know i don't know what you're doing i'm getting a bag of chips i don't know he went to brighton with his girlfriend for the day for the day brighton do you like brighton i I do like Brighton. Last time I went there was a man masturbating in the street though. Sorry about that.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Very much like San Francisco. It's where we seem to send all, like I guess, do you get made money I guess if you're on the street? Is there more support down there? Labour councillors, probably a bit more liberal. Oh, there's green down there, isn't there? Green councillors. They're probably a bit more friendly oh it's green down there isn't it green councillors they're probably a bit more friendly i don't know i can't figure it out but there's there's a lot of um there's a lot of um uh destitute people uh on
Starting point is 00:01:52 the streets who are having a terrible time so i don't think i never noticed that when i went really no drugs it's like every seaside town is very druggy isn't it i think there's a kind of element of faded seaside glamour about those types of places. But I think Brighton is meant, I think Brighton, much like, um, the rising Phoenix of Margate, um,
Starting point is 00:02:10 they're trying to sort of like, uh, inject a little bit of kind of like East London kind of cool and have done for a long time. So it's always been a bit of a, bit of a, a liberal holdover down there, hasn't it? It's always been a great place to go.
Starting point is 00:02:23 London on sea. Yeah. London on sea. And Margate's coming up big time. My next door neighbour's got an art gallery studio space in Margate
Starting point is 00:02:30 and this is going back years, he was always talking about how yeah, it could be really good down there and people kind of cottoned on. It seems like they have
Starting point is 00:02:38 cottoned on. I know somebody who moved there to open a donut shop, would you believe? Oh yeah? Yeah. How's it going? I don't know,
Starting point is 00:02:43 I've not touched base. So, good of you to support them in their in their quest to open up their own independent business i've got nothing to offer them custom custom all right i've never been to market the um the the block over the road uh the block of my neighbor um he uh um wants us to drive down to market and have the Pete Doherty breakfast. Oh, yeah. Which is a big, an absolutely gigantic slab of greasy food. Isn't there something wrong with that society? 3,000 calories. It must be.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Oh, yeah. It's got to be. But isn't it, is there something wrong with our society when people see someone like Pete Doherty, who's obviously had his problems right to say the least he's back on top the recent music again
Starting point is 00:03:29 sounds very classic liver teens now he's fat and I'm saying that as a fellow fat man myself people just want to go oh look at the state of him now
Starting point is 00:03:38 but he's happy now right he's obviously exorcised at least some of his demons and instead of shooting up all the time, he's now getting stuck into a lovely cooked breakfast.
Starting point is 00:03:48 And he probably likes to have a nice little relax on the sofa for a Sunday afternoon with the papers. Right. Have one too many biscuits with his tea. And it seems to me the prevailing kind of chat now is like, oh, look how fat Pic Doherty is. He used to be really skinny. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:04:03 I just thought it was just like he managed to defeat the breakfast sandwich the breakfast no but it's general chat he's like right now kind of thing yeah i don't know i think he's i think they're back touring and stuff um there's a documentary about him running away from something like i haven't watched it yeah he can still be he can still be touring and be a bit overweight yeah that's fine well you know it's very much like a long-distance run. You have to sort of put on a stone to lose it if you're running across America or something. I think that man who's running across Africa will let us all down.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Oh, no, he seems... I thought that for a while. Hardest geezer. Yeah. On Instagram. So I thought to myself at the start of his whole thing, this is quite irresponsible. I think he might die.
Starting point is 00:04:47 Oh, no. And now he seems to be doing absolutely fine. He seems to be absolutely doing fine, but I just think some of the things that he said, for such an achievement, he might be too rough a diamond for the... Oh, so you think he might be politically incorrect? That's your worry.
Starting point is 00:05:04 He's the first man in history to run the length of Africa. You're going, yeah, but is he a little bit right wing? I'm just saying, yeah, but I'm just saying that he'll have difficulties. People won't want to support the liberal... He won't have difficulties, because as soon as he finishes it, it'll drop straight into that ecosystem with ex-Special Forces guys,
Starting point is 00:05:23 your Ant Middletons,'re fucking billy billinghams and you just start doing stuff about self-help stuff only and a high achievement and and to be perfectly frank you know although i find some of that area a little bit exploitative a little bit to the say the least tedious i mean running africa right i mean if you're gonna run africa it's pretty wild isn't it he's like over halfway through now. He's gone from Congo now, I think. It's an incredible thing he's doing. The reason I thought he might suffer a mischief is because at one point, I don't think his team looked that big.
Starting point is 00:05:53 And he was saying... It looked very ad hoc, didn't it? I've been pissing blood for like a week, but I'm still running a marathon a day. He's like, well, stop then. Don't do that. Don't do that anymore. Just do a couple of miles.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Put your feet up. Get yourself a KitKat. What were we talking about? don't do that don't do that anymore yeah just do a couple of miles yeah put your feet up get yourself a KitKat cry out loud what were we talking about can't remember you started off talking about the battery
Starting point is 00:06:11 well actually Peter what I'd like to do is break from convention and read an email around this battery subject because our colleague and friend not colleague
Starting point is 00:06:21 just friend Ben has been in touch about new battery regulations, which I think is going to be a lot more interesting than it sounds. So bear with me. He says, hi Luke and Pete. I work as a consultant for a large
Starting point is 00:06:34 firm in Ireland in the field of global trade and customs. While the majority of my days I spent researching topics that never touched the Luke and Pete show, recently I've been investigating an upcoming piece of EU legislation that may be of interest while i know this is no longer of use to you guys in the uk due to brexit it may have a massive impact on the longevity of luke and pete show beloved batteries the legislation is part of the eu's push towards a greener economy and focuses specifically
Starting point is 00:07:01 on batteries to give you an overall idea of what is being implemented in 2024, please see the following main points. This new regulation covers all types of batteries and it will apply to anybody who imports, manufactures or distributes batteries within the EU. As part of the regulation, these economic operators will have to now conform with new detailed due diligence obligations, complete an EU declaration of conformity for the battery. Increase waste management requirements. Create a battery passport. That will be included as a QR code on every battery that individual consumers can scan. This will contain all relevant information about the battery,
Starting point is 00:07:37 such as material composition, carbon footprint, recycled content, rated capacity, minimum, nominal, and maximum voltage with temperature ranges, expected battery lifetime, original power capability and limits, and initial round-trip energy efficiency at a 50% of life cycle. Now, while all this may seem extremely boring to most people, I feel it brings us to an extremely important crossroads for the Luke and Pete show family, because with this level of detail now required, we are looking at two possible scenarios. This is Ben's first scenario.
Starting point is 00:08:07 With the level of information required and the life cycle of a battery, will these lead to a reduction in a small niche unique brand batteries ultimately leading to the end of new players? You would need skill to survive in this new environment, right? And scenario two,
Starting point is 00:08:22 with a level of information now available on a QR code on each battery, will we see a new topic develop where we compare original power capabilities and carbon footprints or nominal voltage in the initial round trip
Starting point is 00:08:33 energy efficiency ratings? I guess kind of like a Top Trumps type vibe for batteries. Yeah, yeah. All in all, I feel we're entering a brave new world,
Starting point is 00:08:40 whether it's filled with brave new batteries or not remains to be seen. P.S. Luke gave me some advice on cleaning products on Twitter a while back and it was amazing so thank you i don't remember that i can't imagine what that could have possibly been um but a brave new world for the battery um the battery uh environment people what do you think about that what if you just sort of like you were like the bad boys of the battery world and you didn't care for this
Starting point is 00:09:04 maybe like a libertarian battery creator and you didn't care for this. Maybe you're like a libertarian battery creator and you didn't care for this new world of rules and regs and T's and C's. And you just sort of, on that QR code, when someone took a picture of the QR code, it was just a picture, it would just direct to the picture of the CEO flipping the bird.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Or meat spin. You know what? Meat spin. Meat spin, or just meat spin, yeah. Absolutely fine, yeah. Surely there'll be a black market for batteries that will persist. I don't know, really. in the bird or meat spin you know what meat spin or just meat spin yeah absolutely fine yeah surely there'll be a black market for batteries that will persist um i don't know really there'd probably be ones that like people kind of i was watching a guy i think in africa um re do a car battery um i mean i don't think he'd belong for this world because good god what he's inhaling and what his
Starting point is 00:09:42 hands were touching but like he he was basically melting the plastic opening it up and then just pulling out like the the the sort of lead like i think got leaves in them sort of like metal leaves sort of thing pulling them out um sort of recutting them re um purposing the bits of metal and then bashing it back in having like a little kind of like a cup and pouring the battery acid back in. And oh my God, I mean, he did a lovely job on it, but good God. Why was he doing that? I think he was just prolonging the life of a battery.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Because, you know, what do we do at the end of a life cycle of a car battery? We, of course, throw it in a river. That's what we do in the UK. But people don't fix stuff anymore, do they? They just throw it in the bloody bin. The EU are quite big on that, aren't they? The EU are quite big on pushing Apple,
Starting point is 00:10:30 for example, to say that you should be able to replace the battery in your iPhone. You should be able to have some kind of recourse to repair it yourself. All that kind of idea around disposable tech and that's something the EU fight hard against, which I agree with. I think it should be as renewable and as sustainable as possible. I was really surprised that they something the EU kind of fight hard against, which I agree with. I think it should be as renewable
Starting point is 00:10:45 and as sustainable as possible. I was really surprised that they put the USB-C thing in and pretended they'd invented it 20 years later or something. It's good that they've got uniformity, though. It's excellent, but I'm surprised that Apple didn't just sort of go, you know what? We're going to sit this round out. We're going to sit this iphone out um in the in in the eu um but obviously the um they can't do that surely it's their most important market
Starting point is 00:11:13 one of the one of the well is it though i mean like the america south america china japan i mean these are all you know asia most most of the thing. I could see them sort of going, no, we're all right, actually, thanks. And, you know, I'm sure... No way, man. There's no way they could do that. They could financially dip out for one iPhone model, I think, and then come back all guns blazing with a later one and just sort of, like, try and force the EU's hand and sort of go, look, we're, like...
Starting point is 00:11:42 I think the EU were saying you can't trade in the EU area without it, right? Yeah, yeah. So, I mean, they could have said, they could have went, you know what, we're not releasing the next iPhone in the EU. And then the people who want the iPhones would have to go elsewhere. They'd have to illegally import them. Would you be the first person to immediately bankrupt Apple
Starting point is 00:11:58 if you were in charge? The world's most robust and wealthy company. Yeah, but like next to, yeah, but next to the EU, they're probably about as in rude health. So I would just sort of go, all right, well, we're not going to release the next iPhone and we'll see what the people of Europe want. They're going to enjoy their Samsungs, are they?
Starting point is 00:12:16 Or do they want the good stuff? You've got a Samsung, haven't you? I do have a Samsung, yeah. It's terrible. It's got sand in the head. Is this informing some of your opinions here? I want everyone to be as miserable as me.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Yeah. I'm having a terrible time. Yeah, I think it's a really good move by the EU and I'm pleased. Well, I don't. It is, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:35 Do you know what? This is part of a wider point I would just say. We've dipped out at a great time though, Luke. I mean, what I would say is I'm fairly certain the cookies,
Starting point is 00:12:44 the little message that you get on every fucking website that says, do you accept cookies, do you reject cookies? Either way you get on the website, but you've got to click something beforehand. I thought that was an EU thing. Can we not get rid of that now? Like the one good thing about being out of the EU is that fucking box that comes up on everything, moving all the contexts around.
Starting point is 00:13:01 But I don't think you can get out of it because I think most of these companies are centred in some capacity away from the UK now because of Brexit. Yeah, but it's delivered at... Yeah, but you wouldn't be seeing that message if you accessed the same content elsewhere and outside of the EU. It is annoying, that.
Starting point is 00:13:16 I would just say, the reason I like the way that the EU did that and stood up to Apple is because I think like... This is a bit of a stretch maybe but a lot of stuff that happens in the world happens because quite normal, liberal
Starting point is 00:13:32 sensible people just don't want to have the battle they don't want to have the fight they don't want to stand up to it, so for example a lot of the reason that old Elon Musk gets away with the shit he gets away with is because people just don't want to stand up to him, right? Yeah, or they're just tired. I shouldn't have
Starting point is 00:13:47 to make ethical choices about where I look at, you know, where I look at what people are up to. You know what I mean? I shouldn't have to worry about my... I shouldn't have to... Like, I wake up every day, and I have 50...
Starting point is 00:14:03 And we have 15 ethical choices to make before fucking breakfast time it's ridiculous what? will I call the police? don't hit the dog but like like everything is so politicised
Starting point is 00:14:15 because people are awful and the information is out there that these people are awful that I've got to make like you know
Starting point is 00:14:22 people I've got to make choices and I fall flat on every single one of them and make me feel bad about myself for enjoying my football team, for enjoying Twitter,
Starting point is 00:14:31 for enjoying YouTube, for enjoying all of this stuff. I've got to make, I've got to make these fucking social and ethical contortions every day. And what I should,
Starting point is 00:14:42 I'd rather be thick. I'd rather be in the dark. I'd rather be thick. I'd rather be in the dark. I'd rather be thick. I'd rather not have to worry about it. Let me just live my fucking life. It's boring. Why don't you just decide to draw stumps, just do whatever you want?
Starting point is 00:14:55 I am doing whatever I want, but I'm self-hating. Yeah, exactly. Elon Musk has gone full white supremacist stuff now, hasn't he? Yeah, well, they always go in that general direction of travel, don't they? Is it because someone suggested that people like here were like they are because they have a background in programming
Starting point is 00:15:12 and they're used to fixing problems, and it's all very practical and all very kind of literal, and they come and see how the world actually works, and they go, oh, it can't be as difficult as this or as complicated as this, so I'm just going to fix it. Yeah. I mean, I would say that he's kind of like, you go in that direction
Starting point is 00:15:26 because all the clever people think you're a fucking idiot. So you basically find yourself in stupider and stupider rooms, and then you're a white supremacist, aren't you? You know what I mean? You're the cleverest person in the stupidest room,
Starting point is 00:15:39 and you're a white supremacist. That's how it works. Because everyone else thinks you're a fucking dickhead. If someone even semi-cool befriended Musk in a kid's playground at school, this wouldn't be happening. He just wants to be liked.
Starting point is 00:15:52 He had his time. He wants to be liked. And the only people that like him are raging racists. So he just thinks, I'll have a bit of that then. These people are nice to me. Easy enough, isn't it it and it's also quite weird because the stuff he's doing
Starting point is 00:16:06 in like space is actually really impressive but no one wants to give him any credit for that not anymore because you end up doing a load of stupid shit and everyone labels you a prat
Starting point is 00:16:15 I'm tempted to say I'll learn this lesson but you won't will you let's have a break when we come back I've got a great email about it doesn't sound like
Starting point is 00:16:23 it's going to be any good but I promise you it's good a great email about someone leaving cones out sound like it's going to be any good, but I promise you it's good. A great email about someone leaving cones out in the street in front of their house. Lovely. It's the Lugapit Show and we're going to be reading out some of your emails. It's kind of what we try and do every single show,
Starting point is 00:16:40 but every now and again we forget, we yap on about TV shows and ghosts and UFOs and stuff. Before I do it, there's a little preface to this email about a neighbourhood and cones being left out on the street, which is something I started a while back, regularly since we'll know. I find,
Starting point is 00:16:55 so there's a mixed bag of my street between people I genuinely love and have a lot of affection for, get on well with and go to the pub with and they're very good neighbours and I'm very, very happy to be living with them and tedious fucking idiots right speaking of which before i get into this email on the neighborhood whatsapp group the other day this fucking person jumps on it it's a whatsapp group like 150 people and goes oh guys are terrible news um
Starting point is 00:17:22 we've been burgled my My laptop's been stolen. They've chipped open the window. They've come in. They've stolen my laptop. And I wondered if you guys would be kind as to check all the footage of your doorbells, your ring doorbells, and, you know, keep an eye out. Let me know if you saw anything.
Starting point is 00:17:38 I'm going to compile a little dossier, you know, because who knows where they're going to strike next. So everyone's like, oh, my God, that's terrible. You know, we'll do what we can. If you next. So everyone's like, oh my God, that's terrible, you know, we'll do what we can. If you need anything, let us know. What an awful thing, you know, hopefully they don't come back and burglary, terrible crimes through the roof, where are the police when you need them, etc, etc. Everyone rallies around.
Starting point is 00:17:56 I didn't, but a lot of people did. Three hours later, another message from the same guy. Oh, it's all right, I found the laptop. It was in the back bedroom. So, so did he say sorry did he say that he'd been stolen yeah right burglars chivvied the window open got into his house you've got to be sore because like i i i think whenever you lose something you're always like it's someone else's fault. It's not my fault. Yeah. Right? Always. And, you know, there's certain people I know who are very much like that.
Starting point is 00:18:28 They're like, well, it's been nicked. It's like, it hasn't. You just lost it. You just don't know where it is. So you've got to know that it's definitely been nicked. Otherwise, everything starts to get a little bit distasteful for my money, Lukey Mo. Yeah, I think it's...
Starting point is 00:18:45 The people on my street are obsessed. I've said this to you before. With theft. With their cars being stolen. Right. What they'll do is people will regularly just post a photo that they've taken outside their window of just a bloke walking down the street at like 3am.
Starting point is 00:18:59 Probably one too many, heading home. I don't know what everyone's doing. Might even be a night shift worker, whatever. Or be careful. There's people around. There's people around in london yeah there's people do you want me to get my uh wangy 125 um 125 cc scooter and just burn it up and down with the balaclava on doesn't work does it it does now yeah i fixed it um but uh yeah just burn up and down wave a stick around and really put the shits up, people. Yeah, I mean, could we make sure that they don't know that you're connected to me in some way, though?
Starting point is 00:19:29 Well, I mean, it could have been any Pete. Just knocking big mirrors off with a baseball bat. Anyway, so, Stefan, come on down. That was the preface to the chat that I had a while back about this woman putting cones outside her house, which is a fucking scandal, in my view. But anyway,
Starting point is 00:19:48 Stefan's been in touch saying, hi, Luke and Pete, going back to Luke's quarrel with his neighbours about putting cones on the street to reserve parking spaces. I wanted to send you this photo.
Starting point is 00:19:57 And obviously, you guys listening can't see the photo, so I'll just describe it. Well, Stefan will describe it. He says, there's a bloke who lives a couple of streets
Starting point is 00:20:04 away from me who puts cones out under the guise of needing round-the-clock access to his jet ski. Like it's some kind of emergency vehicle. On top of that, he also has two signs permanently in his living room window explaining that if you park
Starting point is 00:20:20 there, he will get you towed. I must acknowledge that he has a dropped curb in front of his house, but how the council permitted this is absolutely beyond me in three years i've walked past his house hundreds of times and never once seen the jet ski away from his spot the bloke living there is in his 60s i'm not really sure if he even goes out these days anyway ultimately i don't think someone living in a small terrace street in central exeter needs 24 hour access to a jet ski let the man have his jet ski fun his night jet skis night jet skis deserves a quiet night it's an outrageous flex yeah also what i would say based on the photo it's just under a big
Starting point is 00:21:00 blue sheet so i don't even know if it is a jet ski um yeah it's definitely it's definitely a jet ski um but it's he's ruined the entire front of his house for the sake of a fucking jet ski the rest of the terrace houses have their palisade and is it palisade or palisades i always just say palisade i think it's palisade i think it's palisade yeah palisade um and everyone's got like a little wall and it looks tidy and it protects the front of your house and you can have a little garden. He has taken up the entirety of the front, obscuring the view from his own bare window downstairs, his own front room. He has got a jet ski that takes the entire and the actual like the rig that's underneath it that carries that, you know, carries the jet ski to the water he's got um it takes up the whole spot and then he's got like a big green sort of gate um that that's like makes the house look absolutely insane with access required all times on there access required all times what's the picture that he's got in the window? It looks like the picture of his own jet ski.
Starting point is 00:22:07 Yeah, it could be. It looks like the picture of his own house with a jet ski in the front. It's absolutely bizarre, Luke. And I think the drop kerb, I think he's done that himself. It doesn't look like a proper job, does it? I don't know. It looks like a proper job, but he's encroaching on someone else's spot with his corn work as well.
Starting point is 00:22:25 It's an astonishing thing to do to yourself for the sake of the lure of the water spot. What do you reckon he looks like? I reckon he's an older bloke with like a ponytail, but he's receding. He ain't married. He was married. Fine. She always said I couldn't do this. I'm doing it.
Starting point is 00:22:42 I'm fucking doing it. The last words he heard from his estranged wife were, of course, it's me or the jet ski. He's definitely got a skull in a ponytail. Two. Do keep us updated, Stefan. And like you say. Knock on the door.
Starting point is 00:22:58 Knock on the door under the auspices of some kind of market research and find out what the hell is going on. I'm surprised that, like, you know, you buy a house in a road that, you know, looks a certain way and then he does that to his house. You're like, how is that allowed? That looks mad.
Starting point is 00:23:14 In the words of Donald Trump, we need a full and total ban on jet skis until we can figure out what the hell is going on here. Because, I mean, that jet ski has not been used for some time either. No, no. It's an incredible development.
Starting point is 00:23:30 It's off the road. I'll tell you what, if someone did that in my street, I think I'd lose it. I'd just start messing with it. Sugar in the gas tank. I'm actually quite surprised you don't have a jet ski. No, I always sort of like think that... It's quite an 18s thing to have, isn't it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:48 I mean, it's basically just the scooter of the sea, really, isn't it? It's just loud, obnoxious, goes quite fast. If you live by the sea, you could probably get some use out of one, though. Yeah, but I'm not... Again, I don't have a pocket space for the Jag. I'm not going to start. Though we would have room for a jet ski in the front palisade, so yeah. If you happened across on one of your many searches across eBay and the like I'm not going to start. Though we would have room for a jet ski in the front palisade. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:09 If you happened across on one of your many searches across eBay and the like, and you saw a jet ski that was genuinely a bargain and it was close by. You do see them. You do see them. Would you be tempted? Would you like to just have a little tinker, see how it works, see what it looked like? I think I'd love to have access to a jet ski, just cut around. Because it's sort of like
Starting point is 00:24:25 no one stops you doing it as long as like they don't charge you launching fees do they you just sort of drive up get on your jet ski and start cutting around the place
