It's the Luke and Pete show. I'm Pete Donaldson joined by Mr. Lukey What? Yeah, it is really. It is really, yeah. Can you hear me loud and clear? Is everything okay? Is everything okay? Germany calling, Germany calling. Du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du I read about, I didn't read about it, it was on Reddit. There was a... Well yeah, if it was on Reddit you must have read it. The fifteen year old former emperor of China, Puyi, or Puyi, decided he wanted a telephone and his advisors basically said that it would give him too much independence. What year was this?

1921. Ha ha, OK. His advisors basically said, look, this is going to give him too much independence because Puyi has led quite a sheltered life. He has no contact with the outside world. But when he finally got his phone, he just used it to prank call people.

Nice. I love that. Good energy. He's 15. what do you expect? There's like a, probably a fairly fringe opinion, but it nevertheless exists. A massive part of the reason the first world war happened was because Tsar Nicholas II hated using the telephone so much, he was just really angry every time he had to use it. Right. And at a crucial time where Serbia were wondering whether Russia was going to back them against

Austria in the war, he was just like really curt and really short about things all the time. He just got more and more angry. Oh, interesting. Yeah. And then at one point, I think his advisors all wanted war as well. So they convinced him to go to war. And then once he gave the, because I think

it was like an absolute monarchy at the time, once he gave it, gave the official thing that they would go into the war and back Serbia, his key generals just ripped his phone out. Right, okay. They were like, he's too unpredictable on the phone. On the phone. So he's made the decision, just fucking rip it out, and if we need to get hold of him we'll go see him or we'll send him a telegram or whatever. But he hated the phone a huge amount apparently. Oh, well...

So, because a lot of... I've found like a lot of younger generation people don't lock the phone, do they? They don't like receiving calls unannounced, you know? Yeah, no, my mate's got a Ben... You're better at that, aren't you? My mate's got a Ben who's got like a little toy mobile phone. And she'll put it to her ear and go, a little toy mobile phone and she'll put it to her ear and go, hey, not go hey, she'll go, hiya or hello. And they make the point that they never use the phone because they're

scared of the phone. They don't like the phone. And therefore you're in a situation where a baby is doing something that they've never done themselves. So where's the baby learn that? How do you feel about the phone? Moshi moshi. I don't know I find like we spoke about before I don't like the two minutes of small talk before you get down I'd prefer just what the stuff is and then if you want to talk about the good stuff afterwards maybe that can come from the conversation but you know I don't I don't like small talk so I'm very awkward.

So when I call you and say all right, mate, I need you to do that thing You said you're gonna do that you haven't done. I mean that I mean that That is editorial Well, I put my own spirit on it right. Yeah, that's the crux of a conversation that I've just used as example We go to war you would say you would you wouldn't want me to be like, all right, man, how's it going? How's the family what you're not to it's just it's just We go to war. You wouldn't want me to be like, alright mate, how's it going? How's the family? What are you up to?

Is that a thing we'll tell you last night? I know, I like it and I always get a lot out of it but I'm just scared of it. We've known each other for 20 years, I don't understand what you're worried about. I know, it's just unpredictable. Yeah, you're alright, you get to the meat of the matter pretty quickly to be honest. I've made your mind up. You're quite easy to talk to on the phone, but others I find it a little difficult. So yeah, I'm not a great communicator, let's say.

What about if, does it make you awkward if you're talking to an older person and there's a bit of a delay on the line and it's like a bit, ah, ah, go. I just worry that sometimes I'll make a joke that I can't register where their face has gone and they might be a bit upset or annoyed or feel challenged by it all. What's interesting as well is there is a clearly the technology exists now to do a perfectly

easy video call and if you think about like maybe science fiction movies of the 80s, one of the developments they're always pretty keen on the writers of these movies movies were like, oh, everyone's going to be able to speak to each other on a video screen kind of thing. But people haven't really decided to do that, have they? Do you remember when, I think it was Marty McFly's dad, or maybe son, I guess, in the future, gets fired by a video screen by a Japanese company and they send him a fax? Which is actually quite accurate I suppose because the Japanese still haven't given up their fax machines. But yeah, I think video calling was such a big deal and remember, you know, your Amstrad emailers and stuff,

they were kind of like beckoning in the new world weren't they? How was Alan Sugar able to be at the helm of that company doing that stuff when he's obviously so stupid? He's he was very much a market trader with a a tilt a bent on consumer electronics. He was very much a buy him buy him cheap sell him high put the Amstrad name on it and just and just do it like that really. They did I think they I think I said they sold a variant of the Amstrad computer to Spanish markets that if it was, if a computer was over a certain memory size, you'd get a tax break. So he sold them and just slapped in some RAM that wasn't connected to the rest of the computer just to get to sort of go, 64 kilobytes of RAM, whether you can access those 64 kilobytes

of RAM, and I've just hot glued it to the motherboard, it's a completely different situation. But I just, stuff like that you make you go and any Hi-Fi, if you got any Hi-Fi reviewer online that reviews any of Amstrad's Schneider's output in the 80s or 90s, they're very non-complementary about the whole endeavor. The Amstrad was only good because of the Z80, you know, it was the building block for everything from calculators to spectrums. And I think it only got retired this year. They also had the contract for years to make Skyboxes, didn't they? Did they? Right, okay.

For a long old time, before Sky I think started bringing it in house, they hit all those boxes for a long while, the Amstrad boxes. He got the contract for that, basically. Right. running hot. Yeah, now he spends his time getting confused by someone superimposing a swastika on Taylor Swift's face. Is that what? Why is she doing this?

Is that actually true? I don't understand it, is this a joke? Is this actually true? Right, okay. I think it's something like that. I mean, it's one of the many, many reasons that I gave up Twitter. Imagine it, imagine AI.

Like, imagine him Imagine it imagine AI. Let my imagine like Him being confused by AI He'd be so could be will be confused by AI he'd be confused by the every time I turn on the old old Twitter There's a new AI Creation where it's that Turkish Marksman kissing like a seal and like every new every new Every new day comes another little AI animation

involving that man and it's super exciting. What do you reckon about that guy? I quite like him. I quite like him, yeah. I do wonder with the accoutrements of his discipline mates, he may even be better. He could have got the gold. The fact that he got the silver just wearing a t-shirt, non-weighted jacket, no fancy glasses, hands in the pocket sort of vibe. They all put their hands in the pockets, don't they? Either way, I very much enjoyed that he didn't have all that stuff, but he did only get the silver. So maybe if he got some fancy glasses, some marksman glasses, he might do better. The timeline we're currently on in the world, six months till he's on stage at the Republican National Convention.

Correct, yeah, completely agree. And he won't understand the implications of half of it I think, he won't understand that he's been made a, he's a bit of a patsy. I had, there's many reasons I gave up Twitter this week. And took up break dancing after that. I'm break dancing over on threads now. I'm thread dancing. Within the space of about an hour, I had someone on there call me a cunt for something I didn't actually say.

Right. Followed by a picture of Katie Price with a turd on her. What's I was, I, what's that about? What's she, what business does she have with turds on her? Was that AI? I mean, it's not the most, I wouldn't say it pushed the discipline forward any. I think, I think it was real anyway. We've used, we've used, we've used several Amstrad CPC 6128 computers to, to artificial intelligence create the dream imagine a poo on Katie Price. You can do that with a morgy.

True and then I saw an advertisement for Donald Trump speaking to Elon Musk and I was like that's the hat trick I'm done. That's me done. That's you done, that's me done. I can't justify this anymore. No, no. There's me done. That's you done. And that's me done. I can't justify this anymore. No, no. There's nothing good about it. There's been a lot of people this week saying

I am hereby leaving Twitter. It's like, you'll be... Are you that big at me? Did you do it? I didn't even notice you did it. Do you want to listen to anything I say? Well, you're clearly not in my algorithm. It's usually just John and Pooh stuff.

Clearly. I just did the tweet saying, catch me on Instagram. I can't remember what I said now. You as well! You too! I've fed up of it, Pete! It too brutal! I've fucking fed up of it!

How many times do you want me to say it? Sorry, I didn't realise you'd done it! How many different ways to address the same thing to wonder you'll fucking listen? That was an inadvertent dig, and I didn't really mean it to be a dig, but enjoy it nevertheless. I'll accept it. There's loads of them.

I'll eat it up. There's loads of them. There's loads of people giving it the big licks on Twitter that they're leaving. Why are you not leaving Twitter? Why are you not leaving Twitter? I'm not even on Twitter. I don't do anything. I'm still looking though. Everyone's still going to be looking though aren't they? I'm just watching. I'm just watching. I just think it's got really bad now. I don't really care about, I mean, in terms of the grand scheme of things, like the philosophical impact of, Oh, look at Twitter, you've got to pay eight quid for this now. And it's full of sex boss. I don't really care that much about that. But I do care about like some absolute moron telling the huge amount of

undeserved power telling everyone there's about to be a civil war in the UK. Just fuck off Just just fuck off I'm not gonna I'm no longer gonna feed this I was I was genuinely Thinking would it be legally actionable if you asked? Elon Musk say Elon Musk It's completely apart from the poo Jordan thing, I heard you ate a poo. Yeah. Y forward slash N, true Y forward slash N and then he's mad enough and addled enough to probably get involved

with that to give you a yes or no answer. That'll sort it. That'll fix it all. It'd be like, oh, he's got me there. If I say yes, I've got involved. And if I say no, I doth protest too much. And if, and if, um, and will all of his fans think that, oh, no, I used to like him, but now I don't like him because he's probably eating a poo. Yes, actually, I do think that's probably eating a poo. Yes actually I do think that's possible. And I heard that the grimace that you made after you ate the poo was it could be construed as a smile. And that you wanted more. So did you enjoy the poo? Yes. That's the level it's got to. Anyway thank you for summarising that brilliantly

about why I've left Twitter. I'm not going to come, I'm not going to be back. I will not be back. We could text one another instead. That's absolutely fine. I Instagram'd storage you with Malevin the other day. Yes, yeah, he was, he'll be, I know he's long dead on the ground, but I do miss him. I do think about him all the time. He's one of the most terrifying men to ever live, I would say. Yeah, yeah. And I think I like him and I'm scared by him because he's more... He's very thin and slight and I think that adds a little bit... Wiry.

Yeah, wiry. I think that's more like menacing, I think, than being a real unit, a real muscle man, a real monster. The only one person I can think of more frightening than him is RFK Junior I know he's got Yeah, just everything he tries to do to me everything that lot over there tried to do to make themselves sound And and and appear normal the more weird they get, and I'm in for it, they can't do right for doing wrong or the other way around, I never know. Joe Rogan endorsed RFK Junior the other day? He didn't because Trump had a go at him and he said, I didn't endorse him, I said I just

liked him. All Trump's followers turned on him and he was like, fuck, my money's going, fuck, I've got to change my mind. Now I remember, because nothing means anything anymore does it? What a change around from I think the last week, the last time we spoke about the whole subject everything's kind of, Trump's gone insane, he's talking about the, he fancies the prospective president and saying that he looks she looks like the first lady he constantly obsessed with crowd sizes he cannot stay on message and and and it

seems like it's really working for you do you think that you could replace him for say just a week with an deep fake well I'm sure his campaign I'm sure campaign would thank computers for lending a hand there because again he cannot stay on message and he just keeps on repeating the hits from 6 to 10 years ago. How surprised would you be if it was announced tomorrow that all the stuff he's been doing recently was deep fake? Well considering it is a pastiche and a direct copy of what he said about Joe Biden when he was seeking re-election. He's basically replacing the word Joe Biden with Kamala Harris, simply because the man

is senile. He's got a very wet mouth. I don't know. I don't think Sudafed really, I don't think Sudafed, does it make your mouth wet? Because it might just be his KFC because KFC makes you salivate. What makes your mouth wet Pete? Oh, thinking about the US candy sweethearts. Crisps? Yeah, it's a very spicy crisp. You're not really a crisps guy. I'm surprised how little crisps comes up.

You never catch me eating crisps. Right, up. You never catch me eating crisps. Right, yeah. You never catch me eating crisps. I've got a mate who's quite posh and he's a good lad and everything but there's certain things he just doesn't get because he's posh. Right. And crisps is one of them. And he can't get his head around them and crisps is one of them. Maybe it's my class denying, left it all behind, disgusting southerner in me that makes me stop eating crisps. My posh friend, I remember once we were at a party when we were about 16, and he saw a bowl of crisps. And he basically just filled his mitt with as many crisps as possible and shoved them all in his mouth. Yeah. And honestly, I cannot describe to you enough how odd it looked like an alien had seen crisps

for the first time. Right, what? He just went, this is wild. And all of us were like, why are you eating them like that? It was like he just didn't understand the concept of crisps because he was so posh. And if he was like hungry for snacking. Did he think it was salad?

Yeah, it was kind of like that. You know what I mean? Salad you can eat and it sort of falls in itself but crisps are rigid. Not with your hands though. Not with your hands. Yeah you can, kind of I think. I think if I was having a, I mean you came to my son's birthday party. Nigerian food you sort of like get your hands in don't you?

A bit of a leaf and gah, delicious. When you came to my son's birthday party if you didn't do that hand right into the salad and just shoved it all in your mouth I think it might have looked odd. Well yeah it looks odd but because that's what you used to used to the old forks and stuff but you know the old forks the old forks I can't remember the quality of crisps that you bashed out but I'm sure it was very good. It was hot food mate there were no crisps. Speaking of which I remember saying to you the other day that the birthday present you got my son for, he was very grateful for it and it was a bubble machine.

And in true Luke and Pete show tradition and style, it was a bubble machine that inexplicably needed ten AA batteries. Ten AA batteries! I showed you the video! Why are they even using... Like, because they've just, they've put in six, right? And they've like, that's too many anyway. And they thought, you know what?

This is running out in about five minutes. We need two more. And then somebody modded a Game Boy recently to put a cathode ray tube television in it, right? And the battery lasted for two minutes. The batteries lasted for two minutes. The batteries lasted for two minutes. The normal batteries, stock batteries you'd get in a Game Boy. And I was like, that reminded me of that.

Why aren't they switching up? Battery fans, electricians, engineers, please let me know why they've not plumped for bigger batteries. Like a couple of 9 volts or something. Because that seems like a hiding to nothing having so many cells. Like a bloody Tesla. My son's never used that toy because I've simply never been in the vicinity of 10 brand new batteries at the same time before. It would blow your entire collection off immediately wouldn't it? And climate change.

And climate change. Well you'd put 10 in and you'd be like right I'll use this for two minutes and I'll put them back in the drawer because there's no way I'm gonna use 10 batteries in one toy. I've got to be efficient about this sort of thing. But then you would be thinking that those batteries aren't full. Those batteries are half empty. It's a remarkable development when I first opened it up and thought I'll stick this out in the garden because the weather's getting a bit nicer. first opened it up and thought I'll stick this out in the garden because the weather's getting a bit nicer. Yeah now could you not put a mortgage out to power it? Again engineers could you not just put a like a 12 volt power supply at the one end of the collection? There's no power supply option either. Yeah but you think that you could just put like a little 12 volt supply at the top and the bottom

cells because presumably those batteries if they're in cereal they would sort of just go across so there'd be a plus and a minus you could just apply a car battery to run it for five minutes. Just run them just just have him out there with a car battery that'd be alright. So I should also say at this point before we head to a break that on a recent show I talked about the idea of a TV show where you you know you have to bluff your way through as a mechanic or as a you know whatever yeah I'm sure it exists already right and it kind of does because a lot of people including David Johnny Mel, Mel, one or two others all said it was a TV show back in the 2000s called Faking It.

Oh yes, I remember Faking It. It had nine seasons in fact and it was apparently quite controversial because a few people who were in it claimed they had been misrepresented and all, nor the usual 2000s reality show type vibe. What was the main crux of it all? What was the main raison d'etre for people being on the show? Like you suggested, they had to pretend that they were an expert on something. I just think they wanted to do it. So basically, the first season, it's not really a season,

I think it's just a couple of episodes, I guess just a couple of pilots. The first one was a guy who is described by the TV show, not by me, as a well-spoken gay man being taught to fake it as a London club bouncer. Right, okay. And the second episode was a young working-class woman taught to behave in high society by a posh sod. I can't remember, I don't know how they got on because I haven't actually seen it, but it is available on the Channel 4 website, so I might have a look at some of them going forward. But there was also apparently one episode featuring my favourite man in TV history,

Gordon Ramsay, where he was a guy who, was it a guy or a girl? I can't remember one of the two had to be, they had their own burger van and they had to fake it as one of Gordon Ramsay's new line cooks. Nice okay I like that yeah okay yeah have you seen the one where Gordon Ramsay, I don't know what show it was, but Gordon Ramsay is at some kind of like cooking school I think and he's got this, whatever like Gordon Ramsay dresses up as someone else it always looks absolutely ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous, like Alan and Dec are the same, it looks mental. He's got like his big stupid, but he's basically exactly the same as what I look like but with a slightly bigger beard, like a proper you know know, Fringe of Society rongin'. And he's like, he's pairing this chicken and he's like just, you know,

bang, bang, bang, and he's paired the chicken like 10 seconds. And he turns to the person who's training him and he goes, would Gordon Ramsay like the way I've done this. So shit. And the woman goes, yes, Gordon Ramsay would enjoy looking at what you've just done. It's very good. It's like, people are thick if they think this man with his head ten times bigger than a normal man's head, covered in what is clearly latex, is Gordon Ramsay going to enjoy, would Gordon Ramsay like this? But it's not, it's almost like hiding in plain sight isn't it?

If you're with Gordon Ramsay would you give him a kiss? Would you? Even though Gordon Ramsay does have a wife... Is this technically, as they say, different postcode? But his wife doesn't mind... Or respect... or his wife if they're in an open relationship don't ask her. And his wife has never believed in him. And what Gordon's got is he's got the old Holy Grail hasn't he of TV people everywhere where he's just a massive company he's given him his own production company and funded it.

Right yeah. So he's doing whatever he wants. he's poacher and he's the gamekeeper boy. Oh, hello Gordon, I've got a new idea for a show, can I have it commissioned? Yes you can, Gordon. Yes you can, Gordon, enjoy. Yeah, so that's where you want to be, isn't it? It's a position you want to be. Because speaking to someone who's never got anything commissioned, I imagine it'll be a lot easier.

Yeah, well, I mean, you could commission yourself, couldn't you? As a citizen of the world. Like a citizen's commission. A citizen's commission. Just go on and go like, is it Ed Davey, head of BBC? Excuse me, Ed. That's Tim Davey, isn't it? Ed Davey's the lead dem guy. Oh yeah. Tim Davey seems to get an awful lot, I feel like Tim Davey should be getting a lot more trouble than he was given there's now a Labour government in power.

Right, what do you mean? Because he was a very political appointment and he seems like a complete clown to me. So what, he's kind of, he should be getting more abuse or just being hauled over the course, being a political stooge? Yeah, I think so. I think it's been a lot of controversy, hasn't there? Yeah. So, yeah, I think it's a bit interesting now that the situation's changed politically. Preventing, not taking wages off a man who has been accused of doing certain things with pictures of child sexual abuse,

I would say is across the floor, something that we could say, that was a bad thing, Tim. Laboratory, you could say, I reckon that the red tops would unite on that particular subject. It's kind of reminiscent of the greatest Facebook post of all time.

What was that? Where that lady posted that she had accidentally forgotten to pay her TV license and wondered that the BBC would come and find her. And the first comment is, and prosecute her, and the first comment was a guy replying saying, the BBC couldn't find 30 plus paedophiles in their own building for 25 years. I don't think they're going to find you without a TV license. Absolutely spotless stuff. Really, really good stuff.

Anyway. Good work. they're going to find you without a TV license. Absolutely spotless stuff. Really, really good stuff. Anyway. But the reason Tim Davis is controversial, I think, is because he issued a dick tat. He's Boris' buddy, isn't he? Boris is stoogey. Yeah, because he was saying that BBC employees shouldn't be supporting things like Black Lives Matter or trans rights, because he was saying it's a political movement and people involved were saying actually these are inalienable human rights they're not political points and it's not relevant to the BBC's Code of Conduct or Standards of Employment so get fucked and I think then he got distracted by the

Russell Brand thing so he just moved on to the next thing. Oh dear. And then I think it was Hugh Ebers after that wasn't it? Yeah. Do you think it's strange, like, really weird thing to think about how I was reading a while back now that the BBC are never going to be able to broadcast or sell to any other territory footage of the Queen's funeral or Charles' coronation ever again because of Hugh Edwards. They'll just have to get um, Nicholls. Nicholas Wichell? He's the royal guy isn't he?

I'd get Alan. Alan who? Partridge. Alan Partridge? You want to redub it? Yeah. Yeah, okay. It's a bit- Well this is a bit disrespectful but I think it'd be good. They need to ask WWE how they're dealing with Vince McMahon.

Let's keep in mind he was all over that product for absolutely decades. Not quite as impactful culturally as the death of the queen though, is it? I think globally it probably is. I'll leave this with you because- Death of a queen, innit? I'll leave this Tim Davie thing with you. Political appointment, of course.

I can just read this one line from his Wikipedia page. Yeah. A former Tory candidate, Tim Davie, announced his intention in August 2020 for the BBC to quote, find a better balance of satirical targets rather than constantly aiming jokes at the Conservatives. I mean, I know we live in fevered times and the culture war was the only thing anyone could be asked for talking about pre-Ukraine invasion and post-COVID and everything. There were very few things for the older generation to get their teeth into.

But I mean, we're kind of over that now. So you probably just feel a little bit like well I've tried to wage continue the Tories culture war on the BBC but no one seemed particularly interested in it anyway and now there's a Labour government so I'm a little bit lost there. People just love a war don't they? They do love a war, culture or otherwise. They think it's good for the economy don't they? Do you know what I love Luke? A battery war. Yeah! A battery war, let's get some battery brands.

It's more of a celebration than a war. It is, it is. We'll find a place for the ad-brick. If you heard an ad-brick earlier on, Taylor did some excellent digging around and found the best place for an ad-brick. Harry has got in touch. Hello lads, very much enjoying listening

to the Backcat Log on holiday. I found the attached very Spanish sounding batteries. Wondering if any of these are new players. Alcalina. Segasa. Alcalina, which is probably Spanish for alkaline. Gotta be. Gotta be. Not a new player. Right, okay. I'm afraid.

Segasa. Again, not a new player. Oh, mi casa no Segasa. Premio? Premio, not a new player. 21% Segasa. Oh, Mikasa, not Segasa. Premier? Premier, not a new player either, I'm afraid. Five people have sent those in already. Crying out loud. I'll repeat. So you're not close there, I'm afraid, Harry, but thank you for thinking of us.

Yeah, OK. Next to our... let's go with... who have we got here? Oliver! Oliver! Never before has a boy wanted more batteries. Hello, looking Pete. It's a long time listener here. Thank you for all the content you've provided in the podcast and the ramble for many years. Never before has a boy wanted more batteries. Hello looking Pete, it's a long time listener here.

Thank you for all the content you provide in the podcast and the ramble for many years. I've recently bought a new house and had a house warming BBQ. My friends suitably spent the day hiding coffee pods around my house. Kids, kids, good stuff. While searching for these, because that's what you want is really hyper shitting mice. While searching for these I found these two batteries in an old vase of ours, the previous owners left behind. Could they be new additions? Remington, which presumably is the brand of, you know, razor. They're not new, Remington have been loads of times before.

Okay, Active Energy. Get out!! Oh sounds like a bloody yoga or a glucose tablets. All right Feng Jing Hu Wai. Yeah so he says that like months ago he found this battery plugged in at work and he'd never seen a battery like it before. Could it go in an Emperor's phone? Could do, could do. So you you know, interestingly enough, Feng Jinghuo is a new player. Lovely. The other two aren't. Now, I'm happy with that and I'm happy to get a new player in there. And it's important that we do so with some consistency. But I want to get a moratorium from you, Peter, on the prevalence of our listeners

sending multiple batteries into a single entry. It's a good point, actually. Yeah. I mean, if you want to do separate ones over months. Exactly. We're not going to do all that work. You don't get three pointless answer goes. We did. It's a good point actually, yeah. Yeah, that's fair, I think.

There's a person on YouTube who I can't believe isn't getting more views than... God, 87k views for this video five years ago. Cheap eBay cells that basically the batteries we're talking about here, the Feng Jing HuY batteries, he's got a pair here and he's just basically taking them apart with his cute cat. That's a cute cat, probably why. Yeah, that's probably why. But he's got 87,000 views just taking apart, unraveling a set of batteries, which is just incredible stuff.

What about this last one from Shaun then mate? Why don't we turn this feature into a YouTube video where we just review batteries every week. We don't test them, we just like the artwork to be quite frank. Alright lads, Sorry I haven't corresponded for a good while. I've been busy. I recently had a trip to Malta. I found these upon entering our accommodation. I was straight at the remote,

so much for my family's bafflement. Sadly, most of them weren't branded rechargeable affairs except for this Rexer. I don't recall hearing of one on the show before, so hopefully I've slagged, hello, snagged a new player. Rexer sounds like it might be like Rexel, you know, the stationery shop. Yeah, it does.

Like a European version of that. It looks like a pretty common battery, and you'd think we'd have had it loads of times before, but it's a brand new player. Well done. So shout out to Sean, shout out to Malta. And you know what? Sean is right, because he only chose one battery to send to us. And look what he's got him. A medal, a gold medal. Beautiful. He has specialised in the way that you should specialise and he's reaping the benefits. If you've got any beautiful batteries for the boys, get yourself to your email account

system of choice and send a message to hello at lukinpeachyote.com. We'll be back on Monday for more of this. Say ta ta, Lukimo. Goodbye. And it's goodbye from me. Bye. The Luke and Pete Show is a stack production and part of the A-Cast Creator Network.
