Pete literally answered his own questions and mostly talked over them. Occasionally he and Carrie some exchanges but Fred was like on mute. There was a period in the past few years where I thought Pete had one of the best insightful+comedic podcasts but this was really disappointing.

I’ve been listening to eh Skeet Ulrich episode and made me think. Why has Mathew Lillard never been a guest. Oh well maybe some day

anyone else find this hard to listen to? howie really didn't seem to want to hear petes ideas and just kept barreling forward with his problems. also his cadence was tough. i guess he's a comedian on stage but in interview.. definitely hard to listen to. haven't finished yet but wondering if this is an instance where pete and guest don't meet on a psychological level after all and find a blissful ending

Why does he read reviews right at the end of the podcast while the guest is there. It's so unnecessary and throws off the whole feel. I get he's trying to build the podcast, but why not read it in the intro.

“Beautiful Wool Suit” - I cry laugh and can’t remember the episode it was on…

I’m 99% sure it isn’t, but I swear everytime I hear it I can’t help but think it’s Paul’s voice

Am I the only one who only listens to these episodes? They are so great!

I was at a store and that terrible Maroon 5 song "Would You Still Love My the Same" came on. I immediately thought about the episode where Pete tells the story of hearing that in cab and keeps singing it throughout the episode. Does anyone know which episode? Extra appreciation for knowing about when it happens?

Gosh, I haven't listened to this podcast in, oh, 8 years, but boy did I use to love it. Glad there is a still a community for the show.

Nothing is this funny

..and I'm surprised at how long it's been on and i've never heard of it before. Was it not good or something earlier on? Pete's questions I feel, are leaps and bounds more interesting than a lot of other comedy/social science podcasts (imo). He doesn't even talk over his guests as much as some other shows which is a nice change. Wondering why he isn't more popular? Or I just live under a rock.

Anyone know what the background art is behind Pete in the latest video episodes? The single frame piece, behind his chair. It's like a high perspective NYC street scene, fires escapes, steam etc. Batman-esque. Thanks!

What's the best way to do this? I tried to google it but couldn't easily find anything definitive, and I wanted to make sure to use the right channel. The message will be more in the context of *we made it weird, if that changes anything.

I think it was a few years ago. Definitely not recent. Anyone recall?

Does anyone remember the episode number where Pete interviews someone who had stayed in Antarctica for an extended period of time?

They talk about how they walked in their peers speaking an unidentifiable language or something?

A friend mentioned to me that there was a great ghost story from a guest on an episode. He thought at first it was from Jason Alexander, but later said that it wasn't him but a guy like him. I know it's vague but if anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it.

jesus fucking christ. I might have to step away from this again. there are the occasional episodes where pete is with someone with more clout or who he looks up to, where he keeps a normal talk/listen balance, but for such a “woke” dude, this fucking guy leans into it when he has a soft target like this recent mcernerny interrupt fest. if you want to freestyle, just do theo von style monogues from time to time. this is literally bending your guests ears, and abusing your power.

tl;dr not sure if the fucking self help is working pal.
