Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Sebastian’s Dog Dilemma

[01:37 – 18:33]

• Sebastian opens with palpable frustration about having two dogs, wishing he’d had another baby instead ("If I knew that two dogs were going to be this painstaking, I would've had another baby." – Sebastian, 01:48).
• Both hosts lament the responsibility involved: constant walking, cleaning, loneliness, the licking, and the guilt (“They look at me with the eyes. It’s like, don’t guilt me into playing with you.” – Sebastian, 04:21).
• Pete jokes that people who play with their dogs too much are "not successful," drawing from Hollywood stereotypes (“The only people I know of that spend a lot of time playing with their dogs... tend to be not successful in life.” – Pete, 05:04).
• Discussion about the lack of payoff, the endless need for attention, and how dog domestication has turned men into reluctant caregivers.
• Vivid, hilarious scenarios: Sebastian stepping barefoot into dog mess, both hosts relating to the universal groan of living with pets.
• Pete pushes back, suggesting Sebastian must “actually like dogs a little bit,” but Sebastian denies it, blaming his compulsion not to let things fail.

2. Parenting and Family Arguments

[07:04–10:29]

• The comedians dive into how kids react to parental fights, with Pete jokingly telling his daughter, “Listen, I was making out with your mother 30 years before you were even a thought. Beat it.” (07:28).
• They explore the shifting alliances within the household, with daughters sometimes siding with mom or dad (“Pretty soon, she's going to start taking... your wife’s side, like, 95% of the time.” – Pete, 09:06).
• Sebastian admits Serafina sometimes takes his side – but only temporarily before family equilibrium returns.

3. Dog Logistics: Tennis Courts, Messes, and Resentment

[10:10–14:45]

• Sebastian details putting the dogs in his tennis court for contained play, to avoid muddy lawns and ruined plants.
• Both complain about the hassle of constantly cleaning muddy or wet dog paws and their barely-contained fantasies of pet-free lives (“If the dog died while I was doing that, I'd be like, well, that's one less thing. I wouldn't even be mad.” – Pete, 11:52).
• Ongoing rituals (plywood barriers, kitchen remodeling) add grist to the frustration mill.

4. Halloween—Changing Traditions and Annoyances

[21:49–37:58]

• Sebastian rails against modern Halloween practices: tables of freely selectable candy rather than traditional door-to-door trick-or-treating (“What is this shit? No wonder these kids are spoiled, right? Take what you want. Fucking choose. That’s part of trick or treat.” – Sebastian, 27:10).
• Both hosts bemoan the lack of interaction and etiquette with today’s trick-or-treaters and their overly involved parents.
• Social changes: People leaving candy out at the end of their driveways with elaborate, “lazy” displays instead of handing it out personally.
• The volume, energy, and audacity of today’s teenagers gets skewered: “Am I getting old, or were they always this loud?” – Sebastian, 35:28.
• The rise of “blow up” costumes and social media behavior among teens, dialogues about the etiquette and awkwardness of compliments and costuming.

5. Rants about Influencer Culture and Social Media

[40:16–44:19]

• Pete shares his wife Jackie's latest grievance: marathon-running “influencers” getting special access and perks.
• Both hosts commiserate over the rise of influencers waltzing into spaces earned by actual hard work (“You got some idiot that is running with the class of runners that they took years to get to. And now... some idiot who’s 21 years old who, I don’t know, farted on the Internet and got 80 million followers.” – Sebastian, 41:54).
• The comedians rail against “celebrating nothing,” resentful of ordinary families making a living as online personalities sponsored by giant brands.

6. Marriage, Arguments, and Living with a Short Fuse

[44:19–57:38]

• Both describe little domestic spats, feeling misunderstood or resented over innocuous requests (“She comes down and she's putting stuff in the laundry... if I say, hey, can you not do the wash right now, she would yell at me right now.” – Pete, 45:19).
• Extended bit on the “one argument per day” principle, wishing you could time emotional outbursts for the truly deserving occasions.
• Discussions about unrecognized daily efforts, expecting apologies, and their wives’ murmurs of feeling “overwhelmed.”
• Pete: “I don't a temper problem. Just don’t do anything that makes me mad, and then there’ll be no temper problem.” (47:15)

7. Sebastian’s Bieber Twitch Experience

[59:58–72:55]

• Sebastian recounts being invited by Justin Bieber to a Twitch live stream, explaining the appeal of voyeuristic, unedited “Big Brother-style” content.
• Pete asks Sebastian about hanging with pop royalty:
  • Sebastian: “If you go to this thing, on your way out, you’re being canceled. There’s no, ‘Can we cut that out?’ No, it already went out.” (62:58)
• He shares details of Bieber’s lavish creative space (putt-putt, ping pong, recording studio, etc.).
• Ping pong humility: “The spin coming off his ball I've never seen before... I couldn't even hit the damn thing back.” – Sebastian, 65:04
• Trying to keep up with a new generation’s social expectations, including jumping into a ball pit with Bieber and his friends: “I was there to participate. I wasn’t going to be an old fart about it.” (69:22)
• The discomfort and peer pressure of adapting to Gen Z culture, and reflecting on what his own fans would think.

Tone & Style

The episode crackles with self-aware, exasperated humor, quick banter, and the distinct sense of two seasoned comedians refusing to sugarcoat life's daily gripes. Sebastian’s “vent” is cathartic, crude, and honest; Pete’s observations are equally sharp, with a dry, world-weary undertone. The duo trades one-upmanship over who’s more irritable, who’s suffering more indignities, but all with a sense of mutual understanding and comic relief.

---

Summary

This episode is a cathartic, uproariously funny confessional for anyone drowning in modern suburban life, frustrated by familial chaos, and confused by the social trends defining the next generation. If you’ve ever wanted to yell about your dog, your kids, your spouse, Halloween, or the absurdity of influencers being handed life on a silver platter, Pete and Sebastian are your mouthpieces this week—letting it all out, warts and all. As Sebastian says, “sometimes you just gotta vent.”

Highly recommended for fans of relatable, tell-it-like-it-is comedy.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

This is the Pete and Sebastian show with Pete Corrielli and Sebastian Maniscalco. Pete sebastian show. I don't want to use this as a therapy session cuz I'm coming in full rage right now. Whoa.

[Pete Corrielli]

I gotta be.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I gotta be mindful of what I say.

[Pete Corrielli]

Okay.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I don't get dogs. I don't get it. Whoa.

[Pete Corrielli]

This is a dog thing.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's a lot of things, but let's start with the dogs, which is triggering me. What? What's the. What is it? I don't understand it right now. If I knew that two dogs were going to be this painstaking, I would have had another baby. I would've had another baby.

[Pete Corrielli]

I hear you. I hear. All I can tell you, bro, is it's. I agree. It's a lot of work. I don't get it. The payoff. I'm walking this thing every 10 seconds. It's for your kids. It's for your kids.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

That's.

[Pete Corrielli]

That's.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

For the kids. I'm. I'm the one out there with them. I know.

[Pete Corrielli]

I.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

This weekend I hit a tipping point. Was in the backyard barefoot, playing football with my son on the grass. And I stepped in fresh dog wet through my, through my toes, the whole thing. And that pretty much surmised my experience with these things. First of all, they're dogs. I thought animals. I thought animals just lived. Like from my, from my understanding, dogs are from wolves. Right? A dog, A dog from wolves. So, so, so wolves are wandering around with no people around. Right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Right.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

They ain't looking for like. Right. So what, what happened in the chain of command that these dogs now all of a sudden need us to like play with them?

[Pete Corrielli]

Right.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Could you tell me I don't know. I'm asking you. I.

[Pete Corrielli]

They got domesticated.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I know that.

[Pete Corrielli]

I don't know. You're hitting the nail on the head though. It's the playing thing. I don't mind feeding it, all right? I know I got to clean up shit once a day. I can deal with that. It's when I come into my kitchen or my living room and you're laying there giving me a look like you're ready to fucking kill yourself because no one's playing with you and you're lonely. You're bringing me down, man. Looking at you is bringing me down. Shouldn't you be wagging your tail looking out the. Like. It just seems like my. Even my mother in law said, your dog always seems so sad. Who wants that? Who wants that in the house?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So then is that what you feel? That, you know, I walk in and they look at me with, with the eyes. It's like, don't guilt me into playing with you. You know what I'm saying? It's not fun, man. It's not fun. It's not. It's not like, oh, I'm coming home and oh, come on. And they. The licking. I'm not into it. I'm not. The licking. I. Get the fuck off me. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. We got people out there. Oh, how could you say this? This, that I didn't grow up with this. And right now I'm ready to give them away. I told Lana it's either they go or I'm getting a condo.

[Pete Corrielli]

Well, the licking is. Is kind of.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I mean, I know it's gross, but it's not. It's not fun. No.

[Pete Corrielli]

You don't feel like it's. But as far as full on playing with your dogs, I'm sorry. The only people I know of that spend a lot of time playing with their dogs are. They tend to be not successful in life. That's why they have time to play with their dog so much. You know what I mean? It's like, yeah, no out of work actors. When I was in la.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

They live at the dog park the dog. That's another thing. I've never been to a dog park with these things outside. Like I thought getting the dog, you just let it out and they just hang out for eight hours outside and then they come back in and eat and go to bed. What's with this? Throw me a ball. Like I'll do it for 20 minutes. But do they get tired? I mean, what the fuck, man?

[Pete Corrielli]

Do it all Day. Well, you got that big backyard when you open up the door and you go get out, and the dogs go out. Aren't you good to go all day? What are they doing out there?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No, they go out, right? They stop and then they turn back. They look at me like, aren't you coming? Well, I mean, I'll walk away and see if they'll play alone. They got two of them. That's why we got the second one, so they could play together.

[Pete Corrielli]

Did they? So what do they do? Do they buy the window looking at.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

You inside if you don't go inside? And then they come and look and at the outside looking at me. You wanted to go outside. You're outside. Now go play.

[Pete Corrielli]

Right?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I can't do it. Oh, my God.

[Pete Corrielli]

Well, you know, I. There is a. There is one aspect to this, though, bro. The fact that you care. That you care that they want to play with you and that, you know, how long do they want to play? 20 minutes isn't enough. That's. That's the feelings of someone who actually does like dogs a little bit, maybe.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No, it's. It's not that. It's like, I, I. I have a thing that I don't. I. I can't let things fail. So I blew up last night. You ever have an argument? Who am I talking to? I'm sure you had arguments with Jackie. It got a little loud. And then Sadie walks in the room, right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

And then she's like, why are you guys even together? Oh, God.

[Pete Corrielli]

What the fuck? I got to remind Sadie. I go, listen, I was making out with your mother 30 years before you were even a thought. Beat it. The only reason we're fighting is because of you. So there's that.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's true.

[Pete Corrielli]

Are you guys fighting over these dogs, or is Lana, like, on your side a little bit? Does she agree with you, or she, like loving life with these things?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No, you know, she's actually, you know, listen, I'm temperamental. You know, anything could set me off. One bark and it ruins my day. Right? That. So she's more patient with him. But yesterday, I go, these dogs. Something's gotta happen. I go, you wanted the dogs, and you superseded anything that I said about getting a second dog. I was fine with the first one. It was fine. Now we got this one. It's ruining our life, okay? Now, Serafina walked in on this, and your kids ever hear or Sadie ever hear you yelling about something, and now all of a sudden, everybody's hands on deck, right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Right.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Because I was like, nobody's playing with the dogs but me. Now all of a sudden, Seraphina's throwing. Throwing the ball, right? She indirectly heard it. So now she's like, holy shit. Dad's losing his mind. Let me see if I could play with the dogs a little bit.

[Pete Corrielli]

Right?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So that's going to last. What, Last night. That's last night now. Now this morning, it went right back to normal. Where's the. You know, it's. God damn it.

[Pete Corrielli]

So you're getting close. Based on already what you're telling me Sarafina did pretty soon. And it's going to be fascinating because that's where I'm at now. She's going to start taking. She's going to start getting involved and taking your mom's side, your wife's side, like, 95% of the time, like, dad, depart. She start going. They're part of the family. Dad, you just gotta calm down. Wait till Seraphina starts telling you to calm down. Think about your sister. She was probably able to say things to your father that your own mom wasn't able to say.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I gotta correct you on that, bro. Really? I think Seraphina's on my side.

[Pete Corrielli]

Sounds like she threw the dog a stick just so you wouldn't send it to a shelter.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

What are you talking about? No, she said. She. She. She looked inward and said, I ain't doing my part and Daddy's upset. So let me. Let me correct the situation, right?

[Pete Corrielli]

For a day.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

For a day. I. Listen. She was out there today. She took him for a walk. All right? So here's here. Here's. Here's something else. We put him in the tennis court. Yes, I have a tennis court. I'm not bragging, but I have a fucking tennis court. And I worked for it.

[Pete Corrielli]

You got it?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So I put him. That's another thing. I've had it. The whole thing. I've had good, bro.

[Pete Corrielli]

It's just about time you reached an age. You're a man of a certain age now, man. You gotta pedestal.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I turned a corner. I turned a corner and I'm speaking up. I'm sick of. You know what? You inspired me. I'm sick of being Clark Kent.

[Pete Corrielli]

It's true, bro. Show them who your true colors are. And then, you know, whoever wants to hang out with me, I'm right here to hang out with. But if you don't. Yeah, that's it. It's freeing. It's going to be freeing.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

We put him in a tennis court because we were Afraid that if we put them in the yard, they would just roam and. I don't know, just too. Too much room. So we put in a tennis court. We put a piece of plywood up. It's another thing.

[Pete Corrielli]

Listeners are not that dumb. The. Too much. You don't want to ruin your tomato plants in your garden and shit. So you're like, let's throw them on cement.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

What the.

[Pete Corrielli]

Put some around the. Around the. The garden. But don't, like, let them not have access to that beautiful lawn. They won the lotto let them know that they're putting them on a tennis court. That's, like, urban.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Well, what. Call it what you want, but the grass, it was. It's been moist out here. There's a lot of dew. It's another thing when they go on the grass and it's wet. They come in now and the legs are like.

[Pete Corrielli]

With the. With the wet a.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

That's another thing.

[Pete Corrielli]

I gotta. I gotta wipe my dog's feet three times a day. I walk it. I gotta put it in the kitchen sink. I gotta rinse each foot, rub it dry. It's like, if the dog died while I was doing that, I'd be like, well, that's one less thing. I wouldn't even be mad. I wouldn't even be mad if it fucking died. Like, you know what I mean? It's just one less hassle. Sadie will get over it. We did the dog thing. Do you have a yell at you? I yell at Sadie. I'm like, in the morning, I go, you. You just walk right past him. You don't even say hello or nothing. What the hell did I get this thing for? You know? Now, of course, then she goes over and like, hugs it for like, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So they gotta make up for it. So I put him in the tennis court.

[Pete Corrielli]

I figured, let's do plywood, huh? Oh, would you do a plywood?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

We've got a construction and we remodeling my kitchen. Yes, I deserve it. So we took. We took the plywood, man and I on Sunday. I'm fucking with plywood. Bringing it to the opening at the tennis court so they don't get out of the tennis court. So we put them in the tennis court, figuring, oh, maybe if they want to go outside, they could run around here unattended. Of course, as soon as we lock them up, whatever, go inside, we hear the two barking, right? Come outside, and they're at the door waiting for us to play with them.

[Pete Corrielli]

But they got out of the tennis court.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No, they're just waiting by the tennis court door for us to let them out. So it's no matter where you put these things, they need attention.

[Pete Corrielli]

You got to ignore that. You just got to ignore that. And they'll get the message, man.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Well, that's what I'm saying. I told Lana, I go, this is what we did with the babies when the kids were young. They cried and they cried themselves to sleep. What? We can't do this with them. It's just bark. The barking is. It goes through my spine, bro. It goes through my spine. So if anybody's looking for two dogs, we're giving them away.

[Pete Corrielli]

I let Duke out the other day, and he starts barking, and I open the door and I go, dude, shut up. And Jackie goes, you can't even let him bark. Like, like, that's rude of me to not like. Like it's a natural thing. It's like not letting a human being yawn in the morning or something. I don't know. Yeah, no, don't bark. Don't bark. If you're domesticated, things are gonna walk by. You don't have to fucking bark at everything, man.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Just.

[Pete Corrielli]

Just lay there.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

You make a good point. Like, they're domesticated, right? So. So they're supposed to be. They're supposed to, like, this is, you.

[Pete Corrielli]

Know, fit into my world comfortably.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Okay, so. Oh, if you're domesticated now, you need my help. Why are we barking when come someone comes to the door? Don't we know yet? Hey, it's the same shit every time someone comes in. What are we barking about?

[Pete Corrielli]

If they can learn to shit outside, why can't they learn to not bark at everything that walks past their fucking eyesight? You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I'm right there. I did this today, just this morning. Because now we don't have sidewalks where I live. Not a lot of traffic, but still the dog walks, right? It walks right in the middle of the road like this.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Like.

[Pete Corrielli]

Like what? Do you own it? Do you fucking own the road? Things come the other. So then whenever I got to pull to the side, it fights me. Like I'm pulling it here and it's.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's fight.

[Pete Corrielli]

So today, fucking, hey, man, 7:00 in the morning, it's like 37 degrees. I lean over, I grabbed it by a thing and I'm like this.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I go. I go.

[Pete Corrielli]

You don't. You don't know what I'm trying to do. You know what I'm trying to fucking. And this is what the Dog does now it doesn't move, just sits down. Now you're scared. Now you're fucking scared.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's like my wife.

[Pete Corrielli]

Anytime I. I yell at anyone in this family, they freeze up.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Get some balls.

[Pete Corrielli]

Just hear what I'm saying and do what I'm saying. Why does everybody get scared when an Italian man raises their voice? Right?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's true, bro.

[Pete Corrielli]

It's Italian. I don't know. I'm all for. Have you hit it yet?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Have you? No. I mean, I grab it. I grab it on the. I grab it on the head, you know, like, sometimes I grab it on the hair and pull it a little bit, you know? I mean, that's supposed to stun them. That's what the trainer said. Hey, pull them back on the. On the hair. Listen, at times I gotta walk away, you know what I'm saying? I'm at the point now that the way I'm interacting with these dogs. You ever see these videos where the dog saves the owner? Like, the dog has a sense that the. The owner's going into an epileptic seizure and then catches the. Or moves them out of the way when a car is coming. Or. Or call. Or goes in the refrigerator and grabs the EpiPen. If the person's got diabetes, I feel if I'm having a heart attack, right, the dog's gonna look at me and go, fucking good. I ain't saving you for shit. Get this fucking guy out of my life, you know?

[Pete Corrielli]

You don't feel a bond is going. Is developing at all? Come on.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

With Luigi, I feel a bond. Like yesterday, Petunia was acting up. I didn't like the name Petunia. That's another thing that bothered me. I don't.

[Pete Corrielli]

I didn't even like hearing that. I forgot that that was what it was called.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah, I just call it Guy. I call the female. I call them both good boy. I'm not even calling it good girl because I just. To me, it's like. It's all a lop of shit. It's all together. Good boy. Good boy.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

And they're like, daddy, it's a girl. That's what they think. He fucking knows. Do you think the dog knows it's a boy or a girl? When I refer to it as good boy, good girl. Do you think they know?

[Pete Corrielli]

No, no, no, no, I don't. I don't. It's funny how your dog becomes unisex after a while. Although I had a female dog and now I have a male dog. And I will say this I feel like the female dog, as mean as my English cock espanya was, she liked to cuddle a little more. Like she'd cuddle with you, this dog, like, it's like the difference between a daughter and a son, I would imagine. I never had a son, but I would imagine my son isn't gonna like come up and randomly cuddle with me as much as my daughter would not have.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Females, like, the, the females need attention more than the males. Yeah. Same thing, right? Same thing with the humans. Right. So that's number one.

[Pete Corrielli]

I have to ask though, this dog shit, I can't stand that it's so gross. So that you're playing with your kid, so you get the garden hose, you rinse off your foot, then you got to clean the shit. Like, did it, did you keep playing with your son or were you so angry with them in the moment?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

That's gross.

[Pete Corrielli]

I hate when I step in dog shit barefoot.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

God, it's like I thought the ground, I thought it was wet. Like I thought the grass was wet. And I'm like, oh, I just stepped in like a wet spot. But then I looked down and I saw the shit seeping through my toes. I'm like, eat the motherfucker. So that was kind of the last, that was the last kind of straw that broke the camel's back. Thanks to Factor for sponsoring this episode. Now I have to tell you a personal story about Factor. Factor got me through the shoot on about my father. I was nine weeks in Alabama and I needed food, breakfast, lunch and dinner every day that I was shooting. And this made it easy. It took the decision on what am I going to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It was all preset. I took it, popped it in the microwave and boom. While everybody else was eating craft services and the junk they were serving, I was eating nutritious protein packed meals on a day to day to get me through the shoot and have peak performance with my co star, Robert De Niro. Now from more choices to better nutrition. That's why 97% of the customers say that Factor helped them with a healthier lifestyle. I mean, you feel the difference no matter what the routine is. You choose from a wide selection of meal options including premium seafood choices. Their shrimp is fantastic. So is their salmon at no extra cost. Now guys, Factor meals are just so delicious. I mean, shit, I'm Italian. The Italian sausage and roasted pepper. I had memories of my grandma Serafina cooking in her basement. Caramelized onion and Gouda shredded beef.

[Pete Corrielli]

She did, but she's at that age. She went with some friends. They had a sleepover. We just dropped her off. We didn't even hang out.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Okay.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So I'm still dressing up. You know, that's another thing. I got to put an end to this whole. You know, Lana's into the whole dressing up, but as a family.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

And I. I was a wrestler, so I had a sing. I had a singlet on.

[Pete Corrielli]

I saw it. I saw it.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Okay. And it's a good outfit.

[Pete Corrielli]

It was funny.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It was itching. I had a fettuccine coming out of my head. A half hour into the trick or treating. I was holding the wig and the singlet was itching so bad. It was itching me because I had it on my bare chest. And then I had a jacket over the singlet. It's like a half, half jacket, right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah. So then I did this. I took the singlet. I took the shoulders off the singlet. Right. So I just had to.

[Pete Corrielli]

What's a singlet? I don't even know what you're talking about. A Singlet. What the hell is that?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Show them what a singlet is. It's a. It's a wrestling singlet.

[Pete Corrielli]

It's like, it's a single. A single suit thing that you put on. It's a one piece. Like a one piece.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's a one piece wrestling. You don't see what the wrestlers wear in like high school wrestling.

[Pete Corrielli]

Okay, that's it.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So I took the singlet off, so now I just had bare chest, like just my bare body and a jacket. And then I thought, oh, God, people are gonna think that, like I'm showing off my body, right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

And like trying to like relive my 20s going, oh, look at this. The 52 year old dad thinks he's in shape, right? And he's wearing no shirt. Like, I like, like, I went from like wrestler to sexy wrestler, like Rick Rude.

[Pete Corrielli]

Right, right.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I don't need that.

[Pete Corrielli]

Well, I mean, what was the jacket over? What was that? Was that also a wrestling sort of a thing or.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah, it was. Oh, it was over the singlet and it said fettuccine, man.

[Pete Corrielli]

Oh, you don't think that they maybe thought you were just being like, you know, I just.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So I had to put the singlet back on, saying, I don't want the people thinking they think I'm hot. And so I'm like, they got hot and I got fat coming out the sides of the singlet that.

[Pete Corrielli]

So what are you doing? You're going. You trick or treating with you trick.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Or treating at homes. At homes now?

[Pete Corrielli]

I, I just, I don't. I. When people knock on my door, what I like, I like the parents to be at the end of the driveway. Yeah, that's where we are in civilian clothes. And they give me a nod and they yell to their kid, did you say thank you? I never understood the parents in costumes. You're very close to. And this is going to be embarrassing. You're about a year or two away from your own boy telling you to shut it down with the costumes.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Dad, I've been saying this for years and I'm done.

[Pete Corrielli]

This is it.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

All right.

[Pete Corrielli]

Go to the Heidi Klum thing. Tell Lana. You both go to the Heidi Klum. She has that big Halloween bash every year. If Lana wants to get dressed up, you guys could tear it up at that thing.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I'm done. I'm done. No more Clark Kent. I'm digging it. Superman.

[Pete Corrielli]

Boom. Let him see true colors. It's done. It's over. I don't wear this shit anymore.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Getting my fucking cape out of my closet, and I'm putting it on, and nobody's telling me what to do. Done. All right.

[Pete Corrielli]

No, we'll see. We'll see.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

We're trick or treating, right? And I don't know if this is regional or what's going on, but growing up, when we gave out candy, a trick or treat, it'd be every maybe 20 minutes. Ding dong, we were watching TV. We got up, we came to the door. Oh, the ghost of Frankenstein. We gave the candy out, put it in their bag, and they had, like, a pumpkin. Pumpkin as a thing. Right now it's like Black Friday at these houses. They don't even. They don't even shut the door. They had. They had. They. They have a table set up on the drive, on the driveway. Bro, there's so many kids coming, they had to bring the trick or treats out.

[Pete Corrielli]

Right? Crazy.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

And I don't know when this started. Take what you want. What is this shit? No wonder these kids are spoiled, right? Take what you want. Fucking shoes. That's part of trick or treat. Someone gave you an Almond Joy and like, shit, I don't like Almond Joy. Maybe you traded with somebody who liked Almond Joy. Now with this, like, I get to choose what I'm gonna put in my bag. That's another thing. Just because you get to choose, you don't get to choose a lot. There's some kids that get to choose, and they start taking. Taking it like they're robbing a fucking home. You know what I'm saying?

[Pete Corrielli]

I know. Like, they're taking jewelry out of a jewelry store, you know, it's become a different level of, like, it's. It's a bigger deal now, man. And it's not about this. We've talked about this. It's not about the shaving cream and the eggs now. And it's just. It's very social, Very social. Parents are way more involved than they used to be. People drinking wine, walking the streets, take as much candy as you want. You know, it's. It's. Yeah, it's a very big deal.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

But on the flip side, growing up, the houses that were completely dark, you just knew it. Just when you see a house completely dark on Halloween, don't you come up with, like, a whole scenario of that person in the house and what. You know, like, you see darkness, you go, old motherfuckers probably don't want to come to the door. Bitter. A miserable people, right? Don't like nobody. And here's something I didn't see, and I actually posted on my Instagram, they put. They put orange construction cones on the steps in a line, basically telling you, don't even bother coming on my property. On my property. Wow. It was like yellow cones. I'm like, he said, you went out and bought. That was premeditated. Like, that week, they were saying, on Monday, did you buy the cones yet for the steps? Because I don't want anybody coming on the property. Five cones. That's a little aggressive. I'm sorry. That's.

[Pete Corrielli]

Man, I tell you, that's almost like, did they lose a child? And now they're just so angry and don't believe in God. Right. What if. What if everybody did that? There'd be no Halloween, dude.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I know, I know.

[Pete Corrielli]

That's pretty heavy, man. But, yeah, growing up, I also felt, growing up, that people felt an obligation to be home for Halloween, to hand out candy. Now it's just like. It's an afterthought, man. I don't. You know, like, they don't care if they're not homeowned or not. You know What I respect around here is my neighbor across the street. Was this a little drizzly? Like 10 in the morning? She's putting out an umbrella, like the one you'd have in your backyard. And I'm like, I noticed a little parade today. I'm like, does she sit out and watch the parade? What is going on? And then the neighbor next to her puts out a little umbrella. And I'm like, wow, this parade must be something. And then right around trick or treat time, they both put out bowls of candy underneath the umbrella and lights with lit candles all around it. So it's like I'm participating, but I'm not participating. What's your take on that? Are you down with that? So they made it Halloweeny, and there's a bowl of candy, but it's at the end of my driveway. Don't come up. Don't knock on my door. Oh, so the umbrella was. Umbrella kept it. Kept it dry in case it was drizzly. Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

If you would have done that out out here in la, they would have took the whole setup. They would have took the umbrella home. They would have took the fucking bowl. Everything would have been stolen. Right? They would have took the whole set.

[Pete Corrielli]

That's a problem too. Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Wow. I don't know. I don't. I'm not into the whole take one bowl thing. Just, you know, it's either you're gonna do it or you're not. Don't, don't, don't, don't. Put out the ball and the setup and the whole thing. It's just, it's, it's, it's, it's lazy. It's just lazy. Well, I'm not, I'm not into that. I'm sorry. Open up the door and start passing.

[Pete Corrielli]

I reached an age, man. Jackie was upstairs early on because I said Sadie was with friends. And I started to get a couple knocks on the door for trick or treating and I wasn't, I wasn't excited about it. I was like, I almost, I found myself going, another one. You know what I'm saying? And like, because then you gotta open it.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Hello.

[Pete Corrielli]

Here's the other thing I don't like about it.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Here's the other.

[Pete Corrielli]

It used to be just kids, right? So I was gonna have a moment with these kids and whatever moment I had, you'll go back and tell your parents. But now the parents are standing right behind them usually. So it's almost like I gotta be, hey kiddo, I gotta be extra nice because I'm talking to your kid while you're hovering behind the kid. It's, it's, it's, it's a pain in the ass. It's a pain in the ass. As you get older, I think.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Well, I'll tell you what, what used to happen is you used to go up to a house and the guy used to open, a girl used to open the door, hey, my guy, what are you? I'm a ghost. There used to be an exchange between trick or treater and homeowner that used to be a little bit more like personal. And now these kids are such shut ins and on the phone so much, they just got, they don't even say trick or treat. They come, they hold the bag out, hey, what are you, a vampire? You know, and you just get, you know, you just get this. You just get like a, like, you know, no interaction, no nothing, right? And the kid just gets it. And then they look at you like, you know, like, you know, that's all you gave me is one. You know, like. Because my parents, they gave me everything that I ever wanted. And now, and now you're just going to give me one. You know, the entitlement and how spoiled these kids are is, is no wonder you don't want to open up the door. Who the hell wants to open up the door anymore?

[Pete Corrielli]

There was, there was one girl that had like elf ears, like, and that, like. Anyway, they were pointy ears, right? So, so I'm doing it and then I'm like, I Like your ears. And she's like, thank you. And in my head I'm like, oh, God.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Is this.

[Pete Corrielli]

Was that some form of harassment? Like now I'm afraid you're going to go home and tell the parents, like, did you say some of my daughter's ears? I mean, they were fake ears. They were fake, but you got it just. It's too. It's too dangerous now. It's all too scary. Like, say the wrong thing, there's gonna be a problem. One kid came up. He came up. He had to be like 6, 2. He was tall, he's skinny. He was in a green jumpsuit all by himself. Happy Halloween. You have a really cute dog there.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Oh, I can take three.

[Pete Corrielli]

Okay, thank you. He walks away. He's like, holy shit, Jack. We're just having fun. I don't know what the hell was.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Just on the front porch.

[Pete Corrielli]

This is favorite day of the year.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I don't like the people that play the part of the costume. Just be in the fucking costume, all right? Don't come to that door as the Incredible Hulk and go, oh, nobody's. Nobody's believing this act. Just trick or treat. You're the Hulk.

[Pete Corrielli]

I don't know, man. I kind of like that. Just give me like.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No. Okay, so listen, here's another thing that I noticed on Halloween. There's like, I call it teenage energy. So we're. We're walking and these teenagers now. It's a different human being, bro. I'm telling you, it's. It's a different human being. I feel it coming from behind me. This like, I don't know, teenagers, were they always this loud or am I getting old? It's a. It's a volume way, way higher than the event is calling for. You know what I'm saying?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So guy comes and he's like, by the way, I don't like these blow up outfits. It's another thing that I see that, you know, like the dinosaur that's blown up or the. I ain't into that outfit at all. Or the guy that's. That's on a toilet seat, but it's like his legs are the, you know, like the, the legs aren't his legs. And I'm not into these blow up things.

[Pete Corrielli]

No. Yeah. So the little fan inside of him.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah, I ain't into that. So this guy comes up, he was dressed as a. I don't know, a dinosaur. And he comes up, he's like, hey, like, when did you ever feel comfortable as a teenager talking to an Adult. I saw an adult. I'm like, hey, right? Guy comes up to me, he's like 13 years old, he's like, do you want us. Do you like Snicker bars? He's like, got a Snicker bar on my face. You want a Snicker bar now? I love Snickers, but what do you think I'm gonna do? Take it from you? And I'm gonna. Was it some prank? That I'm gonna take the Snicker bar and it's attached to a tree and a fucking branch hits me? I ain't doing the snicker.

[Pete Corrielli]

He shouldn't even. Well, he shouldn't even be talking to you like that. I don't like, I don't like. You don't. I don't ask questions. When I was 13, I wouldn't ask a grown man if he liked to snick his ball.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Well, a grown man that's dressed up in a singlet.

[Pete Corrielli]

Oh, yeah, it's true.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

With fettuccine coming off his head and a fake mustache. You gotta go. You gotta go. This guy must be insane. This. You looking at a 52 year old grown man dressed up as a wrestler. In my head as a 13 year old. You gotta go. This guy's out of his mind. I ain't even going up to him. It's either he's out of his mind or he has absolutely no balls. And his fucking wife.

[Pete Corrielli]

Are you with your family? If you're with your family, I wouldn't think you insane.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Okay, well, I was with my family and I'm not into this teenage energy. It's loud, it's obnoxious, it's too comfortable. I think it's just like, like too comfortable being who you are, you know, just. What happened to this, like, shut it. Just like act excited at your house, then when you come outside, just adapt. You know what I'm saying right now.

[Pete Corrielli]

It'S different time, bro. They don't even. They don't even call you Mr. Anymore. They call you by your first name. Wait a. They try to.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah, it's. I'm not into that either. That's a whole other story I don't want to get into. Did you take so many grievances today? So many grievances.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, I, I see that.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I hit a wall. I just hit like a. Like, I hit like, you know, it's a. It's like a bot. It's like you're, you're, you're a bot. You're in a boxing match. You're Just getting hit, right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Just hitting.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

You can't even stomach and jab. Thank you. And then, and then the second round, you come out and you're like, I'm swinging back and you kill the guy. You know what I'm saying?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

The Pete and Sebastian Show. If we knew more about our sleep.

[Pete Corrielli]

What would we do differently? Would we go to bed at a consistent time or take steps to reduce interruptions to our sleep? With the all new Sleep Score, Apple Watch measures your bedtime consistency, interruptions and sleep duration.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Then every morning it combines these factors into an easy to understand score from 1 to 100.

[Pete Corrielli]

So you'll know how to take the.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Quality of your sleep from good to excellent.

[Pete Corrielli]

Introducing the new Sleep score on Apple Watch. IPhone 11 or later required. Hello, friends. Guess who? That's right. It is I, the replacer. Once again, I've been called on so you can play the new Call of Duty Black Ops 7 with three expansive modes, 18 multiplayer maps, and the tastiest zombie gameplay you've ever freaking seen. Call of Duty Black Ops 7 available now. Rated M for mature. Something I did want to bring up is Jackie just ran the New York City Marathon and she came home with a grievance that you've been talking about a lot lately. Same sort of a thing. These influencers are taking over these marathons on a level where like, you know, my wife's run multiple marathons. The woman she ran with, who she trains with, has run like something like 60 marathons. And yet there they are waiting early in the morning in the corral, and they got invited by the marathon to run because for the. They run, they won the championships like my wife and the other one, they did really well. So they got invited to do this.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So.

[Pete Corrielli]

So there's that, right? It's not just we signed up to do it yet before the race even starts. And they send out the elite runners to run first, the ones that could break world records. And they got to go over to Verizono Bridge and then on Instagram, there's runners that, they're not bad runners. They're fast. So it's not just like they don't run at all, but they're young kids that are influencers and like through some promotion with whatever, MasterCard or something, they're on the Verizono running with the elite runners. I can't believe we're up here. It's just us and all the elite runners. And I'd like to thank MasterCard and. And it's like, it's just wild. The world we live in now, bro, where, like, these people are getting rewarded for. They didn't do anything to earn where they are and what they're a part of. They didn't. You know what I'm saying? Like, when you went to the comedy festival in Saudi Arabia and you're talking about in the cast, you know, there's people going down the tarmac to get on this plane at Emirates. That all they did. They have their influencers, so they get to fly for free. They get the cabin for free. I don't know where that's gonna end and where that's gonna stop, but, like, that's it.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's like we're celebrating nothing. You know, you got Jackie, who ran all the marathons in the world, trained runner, and is training day in and day out, right? All the work, the blood, sweat and tears, the bleeding, the feet, the whole thing, right? And then you got some idiot that is running with the class of. The class of runners that they took years to get to. And now all of a sudden, you got some idiot who's 21 years old who, I don't know, farted on the Internet and got 8, 80 million followers. Exactly. Right now they're running with the. With the Kenyan who was training with no shoes on in Kenya. His toenails fell off. And now you got this idiot next to him.

[Pete Corrielli]

Absolutely.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Don't get me started, bro. It's another thing. Yeah.

[Pete Corrielli]

I don't know where that ends, though. I don't know where that stops, man. It's the new world we live in.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I don't know. Looks like it's just the way of the world, and everybody's like, oh, hard work pays off. I got something to tell you. No, it doesn't. No, it doesn't. Fuck the hard work, because look at what's making money. Look at what the fuck is making money out there. It's a shame.

[Pete Corrielli]

It's a goddamn shame.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

You know what bothers me the most? These people that live in, like, a suburb, and they're online doing, like, online shit, like, as a family, like, they wake up and their job is to put on a ring light and make meatloaf or whatever they're doing in their kitchen. And. And they. Do we have any. These videos where the family that. They got, like, a camera and then they're throwing, like, dust in the air and there's, like, a wind machine and they're doing some stupid dance, right? You know, the. Whatever is sponsoring. Verizon is sponsoring this dance of the. The Jawski family. In Utah. Fuck this. If you ever get to this point where, where you're like, hey, we can make $6,000 if we get our 6 year old to, to come out and dance. And then we. We dance. A right. Hey, this is what we're doing, though. I'm in like an anger mode that this could not. This is not coming off as like, this is. This ain't good for the cast.

[Pete Corrielli]

I got to tell you something too, though.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

This could be funny, though.

[Pete Corrielli]

Earlier, earlier today. You ever have a moment where you just. The career and everything? I'm like, thinking about everything. I'm like, I got to get more streamlined, blah, blah. And I'm on the Stairmaster and Jackie comes down and she wants to show me a photo. She goes, I want to show you something. And I go, I take my hair. If I go, I not. Can you not right now. I just. I just. I got it. I got to do it. I got to work out. Like, you know, she gets mad at me like, oh, I can't even show a photo. I can't even show. And I go, I wouldn't do that to you if you were on a treadmill. I wouldn't come home. Whatever, you know. So she storms away. So then I go and I apologize after. I go, I'm sorry. Right? It's kind of okay now. But now she just. She just comes down. You don't see her. She comes down and she's putting stuff in the laundry, in the washer and dryer down here. She's putting the light on. So I'm trying to cast and she's hearing everything and it's. I don't like that. And I know if I say, hey, can you not do the wash right now? She would yell at me right now. Right? So I haven't been. I haven't been able to be myself there for the past 10 minutes and really be, you know, okay, because.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Because I knew something. I knew something was off. I knew something was off because you weren't participating in my displeasure with the, with the, with the influencers. You were. You were Clark Kent.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, I was, bro.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So. So you bring up a good point. Do you ever. Have you already had the argument this morning with the photo, right? So there's already a tension there. Do you have, like, you ever have and then something like this happens, but then you go, oh, I already yelled an hour ago, right? I can't double yell. Like, I can't double down on the yell because then it's like, so it's almost like you Wish you would have saved the yell for this moment. Like, what moment deserves the displeasure more? The photo or this?

[Pete Corrielli]

This. But this wouldn't have happened if I didn't do the photo. I feel like she's only doing the laundry now because now she's like, fuck you. You know what I mean? Which is like, it's just more trouble than it's worth, bro. It's like, I shouldn't have said anything. I should have just looked at the photo. Just look at the photo, right?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I don't like when I burn. I don't like when I burn my one argument for something that shouldn't have, you know, like, you burned it too early. You know what I'm saying?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

You should have just looked at the photo and said, okay, because now the rest of the day, you have to.

[Pete Corrielli]

Be on your best behavior, right? Oh, God. I know. Because it's so. It's not easy sometimes being married to you. You have such a temper problem. Such a temper problem. We're always told we have a temper problem. It's like. It's like, I don't a temper problem. Just don't do anything that makes me.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Mad, and then there'll be no time.

[Pete Corrielli]

That's it.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

That's what I told yesterday. She's like, I feel like I'm walking around eggshells. Well, don't make it be that way.

[Pete Corrielli]

I mean, geez, you know, my likes and dislikes might have stopped. Stay in the likely. Stay in the lightly. Geez, God. I mean, you know, not that difficult. And then this is the other thing, too, bro. She goes, okay, I want to show you one photo. You told me to shut up. I go, I did not say shut up. I never. I said, can you not right now.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Can you not. I know that.

[Pete Corrielli]

May as well. I didn't say what you're saying. I said. She goes, I come last night. I come into the bedroom, and I. You're like, I'm trying to sleep. I go, you asked me if you could put the TV on, and I said, yeah, but I'm just trying to sleep, so I'm not going to talk. Wow. I got the message. What message? What message? I don't know, man. Do you ever feel that Lana feels that? What you're. You're. You're not being as nice as you think you're being. Like, are you? Sometimes a little.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Listen, I know there's a lot of, like, things that could set me off, right? So I know that's a lot to keep track of. Like, for Lana, like, I can't do this because that would cause this and is it. There's a lot of that. I get it. I get it. Right? Yeah. But, hey, I'll give you an example. We have no kitchen, so I was gonna fire up the pizza oven. Now, this ain't. This ain't a. This ain't like, an easy thing, the pizza oven. You gotta put wood in there. You gotta get this thing hot. It's not like I got one of these pizza ovens that you just turn on and put a pizza in. I was in the pizza oven. I was gonna cook steak. I was gonna cook fingerling potatoes. I was gonna cook, bake, like, bacon for the week, you know, because I was like, the food thing here is out of hand. We're ordering food too much. A lot of. A lot of stuff is coming from different kitchens. I go, I want to get back to cooking. So I told Lana, get some eggs up here. Right through. Oh. We had an assistant that was going to go to grocery shopping. So Lana said, do you need anything from the grocery store? I said, two cartons of eggs and fingerling potatoes. Okay. Yeah, I get the whole thing set up. I got this fucking wood thing burning. It's an hour and a half. I got the wood going. All right, I'm ready to put the meat in. I'm ready to start boiling the water in there. I'm gonna try to boil water in the. In the thing, because I'm gonna make potatoes in it. Like, I'm being creative here, right? I am. Yeah. So I go, where's the fingerling potatoes? She's like, they're in the. They're in the refrigerator. I said, no. I just look, they're not there. And then she looks at her text message.

[Pete Corrielli]

Oh.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It was a miscommunication about getting. About getting potatoes. Like, I don't know how the fuck that could be miscommunicated. In my head. In my head. Listeners, please relate this to whatever relationship you're in. If I wanted to tell somebody to go get fingerling potatoes, I would say, pick up some fingerling potatoes. I mean, I don't know how to fuck you screw that up. I don't know how that. How could that be miscommunicated?

[Pete Corrielli]

Were they potatoes, but just the wrong kind of.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Like, there was no potatoes. And she goes, here. You could even look at my text and you could see how it was miscommunicated. I don't even want to look at the text, because that's going to start another argument because I was. The way it's written. Believe me, I was going to. The way you wrote it was wrong.

[Pete Corrielli]

Okay, so you. You don't know how it happened then?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No, I didn't even bother. I go, I don't want to look now. She's on. Now, this would cause her to be on eggshells, right? This is. Okay, this is an eggshell moment because now I'm pissed off I don't got my fucking fingerlings right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

She's like, well, do you want me to just instacart them up here? I go, the whole fucking idea for this is I don't want to be paying the instacart and the fee and whatever the fuck, you know. I don't want to pay $88 for fingerling potatoes to get up here. I'm doing this now. I don't want to wait. Now let me know. Let me know if you've ever been through this before. I go, okay, you know, I get over that. I go, I'm gonna boil some eggs. Where's the eggs? What eggs? When you asked me. Now, you ever get into. Like, you can't even believe it. Like, you can't even believe it. But then you can't. You almost have to edit yourself because you know if you fly off the handle, it's going to ruin the night.

[Pete Corrielli]

That's where I'm at right now.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah. So I go, we were in the car, and you asked what I wanted from the grocery store, and with the fingerling potatoes, I said two cartons of eggs. I said, seraphina. Seraphina was there. She even said it first. She said, eggs, and then I reiterated two carbs. So you had two. So then Lana gets all, like, frustrated and what? Like, I. I didn't. I don't remember. And I'm like, oh, my God. I go. I go, that's even more concerning. So I get a huff and a puff. She walks away. So Seraphina comes. You ever ask Sadie, like, if there's a disagreement between you and. And your wife? And you go to Sadie and go, so I went to Seraphina. I go, I told Mommy about the eggs, right? To get eggs. She goes, yeah. You told Mommy in the car about eggs? She goes, mommy just asked me the same thing. Like, Lana went to Serafina to go, did Daddy tell me to get eggs? So I asked Serafina, what'd you tell her? She goes, yeah. So it's confirmed. There's two people that told you to get eggs, and now there's no eggs here.

[Pete Corrielli]

Right.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

And talking about Walking on fucking eggshells now. No eggs now we got a lot of fucking eggshells walking around, right? So that was last night. So now this is kind of bleeding into the today. It's hard for me to come out of the funk, you know? Like, I'm still carrying residual shit from last night with the potatoes and the eggs. And now instead of waking up, like, the slate is clean. New day. There's still, like, remnants here that I'm carrying into today, right? So now it's like, where is he? Is he. Is he. Can I talk to him? Is he available? Did he wipe the slate clean? And all I told her last night, I go, all I'm looking for is, I'm sorry. Why do we got it? Like, who says sorry? You said sorry. Yeah, you today just now overreacted. You probably. She probably left the room and now you were ruminating in that. I probably overreacted. Let me go say I'm sorry after I get off the machine, right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Okay. So that's all I'm asking for. Like, just go. Fucked up. I fucked up. My head was somewhere. Don't give me this I'm overwhelmed. I'm this. I'm that. I shouldn't have did that. I don't want to hear the fucking excuse. Just. Just own it. What are you. What are you washing your face for?

[Pete Corrielli]

No, I'm right there with you. I'm right there with you with that. With the. With the overwhelm.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Oh, yeah. Or. Or I don't.

[Pete Corrielli]

Like, she'll mumble. She'll mumble stuff during the day. Like. Like today, she's like. I hear her go. She says something like, I just cannot keep doing this. And I go. I go, do what? She's like, it's just the same thing every day. I do the same thing every day. So in my head I'm whispering, you just ran a marathon yesterday. You just got bad. I don't know. This might be an edit. This might be an edit. But it's like, if I. If I walked around the house and just mumbled like, oh, I'm so sick of everything, you know? It's like, there's someone around. He's gonna go, what does that mean? Like, right? Like, you don't just say that. And, like, expect me, I'm gonna enjoy my day knowing my wife is miserable, you know? And, like, what?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's life.

[Pete Corrielli]

You know? I just want to say, it's life. This is just. This is life. That's it. What do you think I'm doing anything.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I'm doing the same.

[Pete Corrielli]

I did too. I don't know, man, but you just, you just, you just hit a nerve with the overwhelm.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah, I hear that a lot. Over. I'm overwhelmed. And I'm thinking, oh, you don't even, you don't even know what overwhelm is. This is called coming out. Yeah. If this airs. This is, this is a divorce. We're.

[Pete Corrielli]

You said. But you said, you said about talking to Seraphina to say. Did I say eggs? Some. Sometimes I'll say stuff to Sadie, like just, just to confirm so that, like, if a lawyer ever asked you what I'm asking you now, you'll remember this conversation, like for legal purposes. So I'm not crazy, Sadie.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Is it me? Am I crazy? Am I crazy? Yeah, that's where, that's where I'm getting. I'm going to myself. Am I, Did I, did I say eggs? I said eggs. So I, that's. I'm thinking, am I nuts? So I gotta go to my kid, my 8 year old kid to go to verify that I don't belong in an insane asylum.

[Pete Corrielli]

And your anger isn't just no eggs, no, no fingerling potatoes. It's the schmuck that I looked like for the past hour making this fire and getting it all thinking, thinking, shit's coming. Nothing's coming. I'm just some schmuck putting fucking wood in the fire.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Right? That's it. Yeah, but they think it's about the eggs and the fingerling potatoes. It's a whole. This is. I started this at 3 o' clock in the afternoon, right. It in there with the thing and try to get this, the kindling and the fire and the whole thing. Moving the wood around and sweating. I got fucking soot on my hands. Where's the eggs? No. No eggs.

[Pete Corrielli]

No way.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's a build up, bro. It's not about the moment. It's a build up. I'm sweating.

[Pete Corrielli]

It's the famous story of Sinatra making his house so perfect, thinking that jfk, the President's going to stay there and then he don't even stay there. He never was going to stay there. You're fucking trimming the hedges and this guy's getting a reservation at the fucking Holiday Inn. So. But it's. That's exactly. I know that. Yeah. And they don't see that. They just like so on. We'll get the potatoes now.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

We'll get the potatoes up here. It's going to take 24 minutes to get the potato. I go, I'm done. I'm done. Like, I had it in my head, I'm going to be done with this at five o'. Clock. I'm not going to stay and wait for the instacart to come up and then he's gonna, he's gonna have trouble getting into the. It's another thing with the instacart.

[Pete Corrielli]

No, I know, man.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

All right, so I want to get into the Bieber thing.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, yeah, bro. Unbelievable. Unbelievable, man.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's, it's. I don't want to say weird, but it's like. So let's give you guys a kind of broad strokes of what happened. Bieber invited me to go on his live stream. Now this seems to be very popular amongst young people where they want to kind of be a voyeur into someone's life, everyday life, right? This Kai Sanat and Ishowspeed are two of the biggest Twitch streamers in the world, right? So basically they have cameras on.

[Pete Corrielli]

Hold on, I don't totally understand this. First of all, Bieber did reach out and said a fan of you would like to invite you to come hang out. Which, by the way, I mean, how does that make you feel? You've always been a fan of him.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I've been a fan of Bieber. I went to the 2016 the Purpose Tour at the Barclays Center. I was in the pit for that. I think we talked about it on the cast where I think we made eye contact. You know, it was, it was the whole, it was the whole thing.

[Pete Corrielli]

So.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah, I got the invitation to go. And basically what it is, it's like Big Brother. It's like there's cameras set up. It could be at a house. We happen to be on a soundstage, which he rented out a soundstage. And it's just like his creative space. So you walk in there and he's got a little putt putt golf course, he's got a weight room, he's got a massage area, he's got like clothing, he's doing a clothing line. He's got a recording studio, got ping pong, he's got pool table. It's like a fun factory. It's like. What's that? Rob Dietrich used to have this kind of like. Oh, he's got like a skateboarding ramp.

[Pete Corrielli]

Holy shit.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So.

[Pete Corrielli]

And who. These Twitch people. You saying that the biggest Twitch people. What is that? What are you talking about?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

The. These, this guy. This guy Kai does this Twitch shit live stream where he invites, you know, Kevin Hart. It's like sleepovers I think he started, like, come sleep over at my house, and. And you just hang out at the house, and it's like, people tune in. What's going to happen? Right? What are they going to talk about? So this seems to be the next iteration of maybe podcasting or what. This is, like, the next kind of level of where people are going with this stuff. So I walk in and, you know, it's him. He's got his buddies there, his agents, there's manager and whatnot. So very friendly, very nice, very laid back. I was. I was. I was skeptical about going to this thing because this is way out of my zone. Right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I mean, we're on this thing and we're editing the whole fucking show, right? Like, this shit that we. You know, so I'm like, okay, when I'm. When I edit my. Because this is live. This not you. Literally, you could go to this thing, and on your way out, you're being canceled. You know, I'm saying, like, there's no. There's no. Can we cut that out? No, it already went out. You know what I'm saying? Right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So you would definitely be canceled.

[Pete Corrielli]

Famous.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah. Yeah, he would be famous in a week. Bro, we just got word from the guru himself over here.

[Pete Corrielli]

You really got to put your nuts on the line.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

But, yeah, so you would flourish in this setting, but you would have to be ready for any type of backlash.

[Pete Corrielli]

For what you said and did.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah. You would be so authentically you. That. That Patrick over here say that you would. You would sell out your. Your theater tour overnight.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah. Wow.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Maybe you should get him to go on something.

[Pete Corrielli]

No, Pete. Pete needs to wipe away any concern of backlash. Just be. Because. No, nobody's gonna put you in jail. Nobody's gonna attack you. You're gonna get all kinds of comments, people disagreeing with you, but you're a good person, and you mean what you say, and it's funny.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah. So, bro, this is. This is your platform.

[Pete Corrielli]

You should.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

You should go on the next twitch. There was nothing that. When I was there, that I was like, it's. It's almost like you fall into this, and you don't even. You don't even realize that you're being recorded.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, you got it. Like, when I tuned in, you guys were playing ping pong. You were about to. And he said, you want to play ping pong? Is when I tuned in, you're like, all right. And then, you know, you went over, and then when I tuned back in, you were playing, and it was. It was funny because he had said something about being good. And then when I tune in, you're both like, ding, ding.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Oh, yeah, yeah. We were warming up, but when we started to play, oh, now I thought I was good. I thought I was good. Now, I haven't played Ping Kong in years, but I'm like, all right, I'll pick this back up and I'll get my serve going, right? So I. He starts to serve. He started serve first and. And the spin coming off his ball I've never seen before. Now I couldn't even hit the damn thing back. I hit it and it would fly. So I go, okay, he's got a good serve. It's going to take me a while to adjust to this, but when I start to serve, I know I got a good serve that he's going to have trouble handling. So I think it's 4:1. He's up. Now it's my serve. So I give him the serve, and he's stunned. He's like, wow, you got some spin coming off that, right? It took him two times to figure out how to hit my serve back two times, right? I got to 4:3. After that, he was. It was. I was done. This guy, I don't know where the hell he learned to play, but then he's telling me, yeah, you know, what we do is we. We play on tour. I have a ping pong table on tour. And sometimes the show, you know, we push the show back because we're having so much fun playing ping pong, I'm thinking. And I even told him, I go, this is what you guys are doing. We're sitting out there waiting for you to come out, and you're playing ping pong back here.

[Pete Corrielli]

Oh, my God.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So.

[Pete Corrielli]

That'S fascinating, man. That whole thing. I saw that setup. It was wild.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah, he's got like a. A screen. It's got to be 20 yards by 20 yards. That's how big this thing is. And he did me a solid, man. He put my stand up, up on the screen. He was watching it alone. That's like. It's like we're playing. Playing basketball. Next thing you know, he just kind of fizzes off, gets a blanket, lays down to college, starts watching tv. It's like so like. Like casual, like, hang right there's like, this is like the day we're carving pumpkins, right? This is like. This is like shit that I would never do. Like. Like today I'm not gonna go grab a blanket, wrap myself on the couch and watch music Videos.

[Pete Corrielli]

You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

It's like. It's like a totally different thing, you know? And this is like, he's working, but it's. This is how musicians kind of like, are, I guess, you know, like, oh, bro, we were in a ball pit. Jesus Christ. And I was like, should I go in this thing? Should I go in a ball pit with the seven other men? This is way out of my. Right.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

So he's like, on account of three, we're going to run in the ball pit, bro. I don't know if we could pull it up on Instagram. We have to look at this because we're going to see my age in the run up to the ball pit. It was. I saw this and it made me want to stretch in the morning. I look old.

[Pete Corrielli]

I gotta.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Listen, man.

[Pete Corrielli]

I know we do this cast together, but there's also a friendship, and this is more friend. I don't know how to feel about that. This running and jumping into this ball pit.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

This.

[Pete Corrielli]

It's. You know, we talk a lot about Sinatra.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah. No.

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah. And what does your wife say? Is she all for it? Because she is modernized. She is progressive.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

My wife. My wife wants a ball pit. No, I mean, listen, you're there. It's like, you just do it, you know, it's just like, you wouldn't do.

[Pete Corrielli]

It if I asked you. If I said, bro, jump in a ball pit with me, you'd go get the age of bullpen.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

When you're in this situation.

[Pete Corrielli]

Peer pressure, peer pressure.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

That's what it is. I was there to. I was down for anything. I was there to participate. I wasn't going to be an old fart about it. Right. No. That makes.

[Pete Corrielli]

I understand. It's a new way of performing, bro. It's what people do. It's what people want to see.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

They're seeing you. I don't even think it's on mine. This.

[Pete Corrielli]

This is.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No, I didn't. I don't know if I posted this. This is on. Like, we're gonna have to find it, like, on a Bieber. Like a Bieber fan page or something. God, this was terrible, man. This was like, yeah, I got.

[Pete Corrielli]

I gotta see this. But I, I. Bro, I have to modernize. It's even like when you were saying Bert was saying nice things about me, and then you did as well, and I really appreciate it. Now people who do my social media cut that up and sent it to me and was like, we should. We gotta post this. And I said, I'm gonna post friends of mine saying that I'm funny. It seems very odd to me. And they're like, oh, my God, Pete, you gotta get over it. This is what you do. This is what people do.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Yeah. So you gotta get over it. This is, this is it. I mean, listen, I feel like a.

[Pete Corrielli]

True fan of me is gonna go, guy. What? We know you're funny. I need to see this. Like a true fan of you is gonna go, guy Ball pit. It's going against you five albums. It's going against five stand up specials. Oh.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Oh, God. Oh, wait, hold on. Oh, rewind it.

[Pete Corrielli]

Oh, my God. I don't want to see it again. I don't want to look again. Two, one. Let's do it.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Oh, my God.

[Pete Corrielli]

Wow. A shoe.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Was it everything you thought it would be?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No, my luck would have it. I went where the least amount of balls were. It almost broke my sternum, but. All right.

[Pete Corrielli]

I've always wanted to jump in a ball pen. I've even been as a kid though. I always wanted to try it. I always wonder what it feel like. Is it really soft? Does it break the fall?

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

No, I, I, I, I, I, literally my back, I fucked up my back doing that. All right, but these fucking guys are jumping that, you know, they're in the air, right? And they land and it's like, oh, isn't it? Is everything you thought it was? Yeah. When I could, if I could feel my spine again, I thought I was gonna have a wheelchair getting out of there. But anyway, listen, in all, it was a good time. I was there for three hours, you know, goofing around, talking bullshit and you know, we, I dropped my song. I did a, like a dance song. I said, hey, man, you got a bunch of musicians here. You mind if I play my song? I got like a, a dance song that's coming out, right? So they enjoyed the song. It was fun. It was like, listen, it was good. I got my, out of my comfort zone. I faced my fears of like doing something. I told him I felt like I was the new kid at school. I didn't know nobody there. I'm coming. He's, it's his place, it's his friends, it's everybody he knows. The next thing you know, the 52 year old man is jumping into a ball pit, Right?

[Pete Corrielli]

Yeah, yeah. Now I, I, I'm trying to picture if Billy Joel was in his 30s and asked me to jump into a ball pit. I guess I would. I guess I would. That's the best way I could put it. But it was definitely.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

Oh, shit.

[Pete Corrielli]

You know, we had to see you do that. It was weird. Yeah. What's this song? You got a song coming out. Can we not hear about.

[Sebastian Maniscalco]

I think it's dropping today. I can't drop it now because it's. It's gonna come out like for sure today. But I'll. I'll play it once it's out. Up and running. All right, listen, Pete Sebastian show lot lot going on here in our lives. Appreciate you guys listening. Some of it might have come off as being like a little angry and there's no button of humor on it, but sometimes you just gotta vent. And thanks for listening. Pete and Sebastian show back next week.
