Welcome to a brand new episode of The Luke and Pete Show! Our two eponymous villains are here once again to run the rule over whatever takes their fancy on the world's least-focused podcast. This week, Luke bought a piece of old hardware from his mate at a train station and as a result has suffered a couple of electric shocks. It's almost as if Pete is a bad influence on him. There's also talk of a rave in Thetford Forest that Pete *did not* organise despite reports to the contrary, and with the...

We discuss that today, as well as getting the latest on our quest to learn as much as we can about glass, before going big on graverobbing and traditional funerals. After that there's a deep dive on endangered species, with Pete being particularly concerned about the plight of the humble lemur.
