I want to like Pete Holmes. He's well regarded in the industry and seems like a genuine, good dude.

But, except on rare occasions, I don't think he's funny.

If you are ever bored I recommend his podcast it's called You Made It Weird. But just search for comedians you like. Bill Burr, John Mulaney, Brian Regan, Mike Bribiglia, Kumail Nanjiani and Kumail's wife Emily Gordon was really great. But the idea of listening to someone I didn't like on his show is a hard task and I like him.

Yeah, he strikes me like a Spike Feresten type who must be great at networking behind the scenes but it kind of amazes me that they keep getting opportunities over comedians who actually make me laugh.

I watched a little bit of "Conan O'Brien Can't Stop" last night, and I can see why he likes Pete. Behind the scenes (assuming the footage was authentic), Conan enjoys being around people who are serious and polite and conduct conversations like "That was really fun. You did a very good job." I've always been a big fan of the Conan show, but behind the scenes he looks like a boring nice guy who likes to be around boring nice people.
