Today, the lads kick things off with a classic Jeremy Kyle moment: a man boldly declares he loves cocaine more than his kids. This prompts a discussion on addiction where Luke accuses Pete of being addicted to papier-mâché (he doesn't deny it) and Pete issues a public warning about glue powders – specifically the deeply cursed meat glue.Elsewhere, a casual confession about a recent outdoor wee sends them into a surprisingly passionate debate about the regional politics of public urination. And yes, Pete's still convinced he could build Luke's house extension. Luke hasn't yet been persuaded.Just another completely normal Monday.Email us at hello@lukeandpeteshow.com or you can get in touch on X, Threads or Instagram if character-restricted messaging takes your fancy.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

Luke's livid at the fact he's stuck with just one Father's Day while his wife gets to celebrate Mother's Day in both the UK and US. Meanwhile, Pete's only just realised you're supposed to buy your partner a Mother's Day gift… and it's her first one, too. Strong start!Elsewhere, Pete confidently declares Neil Young a B-grade artist, but Luke's not having any of it. Choosing to rise above Pete's attempt at antagonising him, he dives into the new Becoming Led Zeppelin doc, while Donny reminisces about working Glasto for the free ticket and reminds us of his golden rule: getting blasted drunk is the only way to enjoy it.Also on the docket: Chris Eubank Sr's flawless skin.

Fresh off a Football Ramble tour, the lads recap a monster journey back from Glasgow, including a five-hour delay, a detour through Edinburgh, and a run-in with a wildly unpredictable couple who produced not one but two cats mid-journey. Pete and Vish witnessed it all, while Luke, blissfully unaware, sat back with noise-cancelling headphones and a Nazi documentary.Elsewhere, the lads get stuck into Glastonbury chat, Luke's actively praying for a washout, and then take a deep dive into what really makes someone a nepo baby. Does Matty Healy owe it all to his soap-star parents? And if Pete's daughter ends up in the spotlight, does having two radio DJ parents automatically seal her fate?

Pete kicks things off by unpacking the most scandalous moment of the 2025 Met Gala: Rosa Parks printed on a pair of knickers. Naturally, this leads Luke to ask the big question: are we just getting stupider as a society? Then comes the real shocker…Met Gala tickets cost $75,000. Luke's astounded, and takes it as the perfect excuse to launch into a full-blown rant about stamp duty and the state of everything.Plus, Pete pulls the ultimate contrarian move by refusing to watch Adolescence, instead pledging to watch every other show with the same name so he can still join in the chat. And a listener's email sparks a surprisingly grim realisation: are astro turf pitches just giant Petri dishes?...Absolutely.Email us at hello@lukeandpeteshow.com or you can get in touch on X, Threads or Instagram if character-restricted messaging takes your fancy.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

Luke poses a crucial hypothetical: if music awards only went to artists who've never taken a stimulant… who'd actually be left?

The lads hop aboard the Steven Bartlett hate train, again, and Pete accuses Luke of being just a little jealous.

After foxes ransack Pete's nappy bins, Luke suggests a very DIY deterrent: peeing in an Evian bottle to mark his territory… not that he's speaking from experience. And if he was, he certainly wouldn't have been caught mid-stream by his wife. Definitely not.Meanwhile, Pete's overhydration saga hits rock bottom with a full-bladder emergency on the M25, resulting in an SOS wee right outside of a British Airways training centre. Dignity?

That's a lot of sweaty bodies!Elsewhere, after a brief detour into 'The Slug', the lads debate where the line is drawn between harmless kink and full-blown creep behaviour.

Today, the lads dive into the perplexing world of rattan furniture: What is it made of? Why is it so expensive? And why was Luke's cat, Jasper, so obsessed with it? Pete then shares a story about his dad randomly bringing home a snooker table and a bag of balls, sparking a debate about the most inconvenient gifts (spoiler: Luke once sent someone a box of crickets).Elsewhere, Pete declares that the true meaning of life is enjoying the art of antagonising friends and colleagues. Plus, he opens up about his ultra-cautious approach to proposing—it's a yes-or-nothing policy for this self-proclaimed worrisome little chap.What's the most annoying gift you've ever received?

It's a chaotic start to the week as Pete confesses to accidentally installing a secret camera in an Airbnb, while Luke can't resist another dig at Jake Humphrey's “sexy chat.”Elsewhere, Pete considers taking wrestling classes as his January fitness fix and reveals some questionable dessert choices - dog cake and Baileys-flavoured squirty cream, anyone?Plus, a listener's bizarre Airbnb tale and a fiery debate: are rivalries just plain silly?

This week, Pete can't stop raving about WD40, while Luke ponders how parenting life has crushed his spontaneity. Then, the lads debate nap time efficiency, the dread of “circling back in the new year,” and whether cash really is king...should we really be handing a stack of cash straight to the doctor?Elsewhere, Pete pitches Lukey in Lagos, a foolproof idea for Luke to become a YouTube sensation, while Luke debates the right approach to plane food — spoiler: just say no. Plus, the lads have a Beatles impression-off, and a much needed follow up to the Grimsby fish shop saga.Give us your best WD40 stories here: Hello@LukeandPeteShow.com Hosted on Acast.

This week, Donny shares how his infamous “C*** mug” kept making surprise appearances during adoption meetings, leading to a frantic mug switcheroo every time it landed in the wrong hands. Of course, this sparks a full-on mug-off: Who's got the best collection? Does Luke have a serious mug hoarding problem? And why does tea taste better from a stolen mug?The lads then turn their attention to the gentrification of Margate, posing the question: is it a seaside gem or... just a sh*thole?Plus, Pete reflects on the whirlwind of heartfelt congratulations (and a few dubious comments) he's received about his family's adoption journey…thankfully, the adoption council wasn't made up of you lot!If you've been to Margate and loved it or hated it, we want to know why!
