WHY DON'T YOU AGE!?

Alright, Wood. Your story checks out. You're free to go.

Petey-pants,

I just want to thank you for your podcast. I've been listening since ep 6 and you quickly skyrocketed to becoming my favorite comedian. I saw you at JFL42 twice last year, three times if you count the live podcast.

Although YMIW has helped me with maybe personal issues, I'd have to say that the greatest life tool I've learned from you comes from your standup. Your tendancy to play around in "playground bits" and openly state things like "I don't know why we're not all doing backflips right now. If you're not imagining ______" inspired me to enjoy life and make myself happy, regardless if others are willing to get on board or not. I'll cash all my happy checks while they worry about being seen at the bank.

My Questions: (oh god, so many. answer whichever you like)

  1. As a Canadian without cable, what can I do to help ensure that The Pete Holmes Show gets picked up for an additional 30 years?

  2. I really relate to your past trouble of being "too nice" in relationships to the point where it fosters resentment and harms the relationship. How did you resolve this behavior? Any reading to recommend other than I Can't Believe My Life Has Come To This by Dr. Gary Penn, available now?

  3. How did your parents take to you abandoning religion?

  4. Can we get DGP as a TPHS/YMIW guest?

  5. Top 3 DREAM YMIW Guests? Assume that they would all say yes and go as long as you want.

  6. What would you say your biggest spiritual revelation has been since starting the show?

Again, thank you for everything. You are truly a hero of mine.

Thanks for the answers! What are you, the best?!

I promise keep buying and tuning into your work until you meet your inevitable demise via Chelsea Peretti.

And with that comment, I too will be buying your book. Just so you know that Canadian hands are all over your precious work.

If you feel like saying something disparaging about a guy named Mike who bought your book, I'll be sending this over to him shortly.
