You Made It Weird with Pete Holmes

This podcast makes my time spent driving from barn to barn to show the horses, as crispy as it can be. This is like sitting in on the back-and-forths with my dads buddies in the shop. The episode with Kathleen Madigan was like the best evening with old friends at the bar that you’ve ever had, without the hangover. I’m so thankful for Val and Pete’s Friday’s- it’s relational goals! Troubled times call for the funny people to help us all, and they’re doing their patriotic duty for us all. Thank you, Pete, for keeping me at my crispiest!

“This was useful to me” is an understatement. This reminds me of the poem by Andrea Gibson ‘The Nutritionist’ where they say, “so I keep listening to the moment the grief becomes a window- When I can see what I couldn’t see before- Through the glass of my most battered dream, I watch a dandelion lose its mind in the wind- and when it did, it scattered a thousand seeds.” Thank you for the reminder.

I don’t listen to every episode but every time I come back to this show I remember why I’m not only a fan of Pete but why I love talking & connecting with people. It’s such an intimate & honest look into people’s lives. And it does remind you, even if your career or path isn’t in entertainment (in its multiple forms) nor social broadcasting, that everyone has a satellite experience with everything we could or may be facing. I love this show. Dig in & you’ll find something worthwhile. I promise.

How about you actually let your guests finish their thought before you cut them off mid-sentence?
