This is the Pete and Sebastian show with Pete Corrielli and Sebastian Maniscalco.
But it's a sweet song. It's a sweet song. I hope.
What's going on, everybody? Welcome to the Pete and Sebastian Show. Let me walk you through what's going on. I mean, we've done over 600 episodes, and this is a very unique situation we're dealing with today. Okay, so what you'll hear coming out on one of the next cast, probably after this one. We were about to lay down a show this week, and my wife crashed. Well, she. She. Long story short, a plow hit the side of her. She was wrong. Everyone's totally fine. We'll get into it on the cast. But we were literally. Sebastian hadn't walked in the room but we were just about to start. Patrick hooked me up, I get a phone call and it's my wife. And I couldn't do the cast so we wanted to put out a show this week. We didn't want to not have a show. Everyone's got very busy schedules so we couldn't find any other time. So Kansas, behind the glass here, we've been saying we wanted to put together a best of. We always try to put a few of them together at the end of the year. He's like let's. Let's put up a best of best of. So he found some clips. I thought we were doing a best of of the Pete and Sebastian show ever. Then I'm looking at the clips and cans goes, nah, it's just the best of 2025. Danny goes, it's just the best of 2025. What month's cans? April through what?
Sebastian Maniscalco
January, February, March and April.
Pete Corrielli
January, March, February and April. So it's the best of the Pete Sebastian show of a four month period in 2025. What a year it's been. Been what a year it's been. Finishing up the It Ain't Right tour opening for Sebastian was unbelievable. He had that amazing special that's out on Hulu that you can check out there. I taped a special. We're gonna put that puppy out soon. I'm excited for. I moved. That was insane. Just a lot of stuff and the cast is just humming. It is. Can't thank you guys enough for listening. We have so much fun doing it. Long live the cast. Without further ado here, let's get into it. We're going to do a little best of. These are some fun moments we had over the past few months of the Pete and Sebastian show. Don't we pull them back out up and share them with you. We're going to kick it off with when we discuss the whole Buzz Aldrin the astronaut and Sebastian's thoughts about what kind of pull you get having been an astronaut that landed on the moon. Enjoy the Pete and Sebastian show and I hope you enjoy these clips, baby. Thanks again for listening.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm in Germany.
At a.
Airline lounge. I think it was Lufthansa. I'm in the lounge and I'm right by the check in desk.
So I'm watching something on my phone or whatever and I hear a little kind of hubbub behind me.
And it's an older gentleman and his wife, and they're trying to check into the lounge, and they're not allowing this man to check in.
And I'm kind of, like, listening. And he goes, no, I checked in on the way here. I don't know why I'm not available to check. And they say, sorry, sir, you're not a member here. And this guy goes, I was on the moon.
Pete Corrielli
No way.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Swear to God. I swear to God. Now, Brian Regan does a bit about this. It's so funny that I actually lived Brian Regan's bit, Right?
Pete Corrielli
Yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
But he goes, I was on the moon. And the woman goes, I'm sorry, sir. He goes, I am Buzz Aldrin. I was on the moon. Now this guy.
Pete Corrielli
Crazy.
Sebastian Maniscalco
What do you think of. Of Buzz Aldrin pulling out the moon card to get into the Lufthansa Loud?
Pete Corrielli
I would be like, well, if I let you in there, will, are you gonna be. Will you be telling us all about the moon? If he's like, no, I'm just gonna sit with my wife. I'm like, well, then what do we get out of it? I mean, if you couldn't tell us what it was, like, I'll let you in. But, you know, listen, I.
Sebastian Maniscalco
This. Does being on the moon, right.
Just in itself.
Pete Corrielli
No.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Get you into shit?
Pete Corrielli
Not. No. If I can't ask you, you know, is it. Is there any noises? Is it just silence up there? Is it. No, no, no, no.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It has nothing to do with the interaction between people. Out of respect. Out of respect. Like, no, a lot of people have not been on the moon. And Brian Regan's bit goes into this. I'm not. I'm not stealing Brian Regan's bit, but he's saying he's actually got a special. I was on the moon or something. Or something.
Pete Corrielli
Great bit.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah. About, like, topping people, you know, like, yeah, this is. That. You cannot top that story. Oh, I was in the F1 race. And. And, oh, yeah, I was on the moon. Like, well, you can't. You can't, like, go any further than that. But my question is, right, if this guy goes to a restaurant, he can't get a reservation. Like, he walks into a hot restaurant. I'm sorry, sir, we're fully committed tonight. We don't have a table for you. And he goes, my name is Buzz Aldrin. I was on the moon.
Pete Corrielli
Bell.
To get back to the classic Regan bit, even, he's setting it up in a way that. Because everyone's telling stories at a party, you're gonna Want to hear my story? Because I was on the moon, right? You know, like, let me put it this way. You've had Lionel Richie in your house. Okay, now let's say that you had at this party, Lionel Richie got behind the piano and played some songs. And let's say at the same party, Buzz Aldrin was there. But Buzz Aldrin didn't talk about the moon or nothing. He was just in the corner with his wife eating crackers. Next day, people ask how great the party was, you opening what Lionel Richie did, dancing on the ceiling on my piano, or you saying Buzz Aldrin was there eating crackers.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I would start with the Lionel Richie.
Pete Corrielli
Story because I'm getting something out of this. I'm seeing a legend sing in front of me. So just because you were on the moon, that in and of itself doesn't hold enough weight. Unless you got a moon rock your pocket that you're going to share with us. Something.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I go a step. I'll go a step further. Buzz Aldrin shows up in his space suit, and he's eating crack. He's eating crackers out of. He's eating crackers in his space suit. And then Lionel Richie gets me out of the. What are you saying? First, tomorrow, the guy showed up in his space outfit.
Pete Corrielli
Oh, my God. Without a doubt.
He let us touch it. Even if he had a patch that was on the spacesuit on the moon and he brought that and he passed it around over cocktails. Just give me something, Buzz. Just be in there. In and of itself, having been there doesn't get you.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Doesn't get you into an air. This guy couldn't get into an airport lounge, and he was on the moon.
Pete Corrielli
That doesn't sound right. That's all right to me.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm sorry.
Pete Corrielli
I don't. I'm not. I don't know, man. I just, like, you know, it's like a really long flight.
Is it?
Advertisement Voice (State Farm)
Right?
Pete Corrielli
I mean, like, my wife flew. My wife flew coach to Australia. That's like semi comparable.

Little beef jerky, by the way, totally into beef jerky.
M A U. I think you say Maui. Little venison stick. Great little snack. Not a sponsor. Send me free, please.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm sick of paying full price for shit, all right?
Pete Corrielli
I'm sick of it. Deer meat is not a great little snack, I don't think. I mean. I mean, picture like. Picture like if a deer is standing there and you were to bend over and take a bite out of its fucking back. That's what you just did. That's not a snack.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay, let me take you back four weeks ago when you were down in beef jerky from John.
Pete Corrielli
Right, Right. But I'm not in your hotel promoting it to youth. We got young kids listening. They get beef jerky. Is this. It's. It's meat guy.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah. What you were devouring and said, oh, this is a beautiful snack. At the end of the night, I eat my beef jerky and I get.
Pete Corrielli
In my bathtub because I had lack of options. Now I'm home and I got other options. You got. I. I'm sure. I've been to your house. There's always an abundance of fresh fruit. It's like a goddamn lobby at a five Star Hotel in Mexico. That's how much fresh fruit's floating around. You're coming up with packaged deer meat.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's great.
Pete Corrielli
By the way.
John Petrelli, whose meat we have from the road, also wrote that book. I finished it. Like to get into that at some point with John. Maybe down the line on the road, we'll do something with that. Had to do an interview with him about it. Incredible book.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Well, let me just kind of give you a compliment here in regards to your.
And you must have scored really high on this in school. Your reading and comprehension.
I'll put it up against any Harvard grad. The ability to not only read, but then offer information to other people from what you read is astounding. I mean, John was even stunned that you remember these little idiosyncrasies throughout his book that, you know, he thought maybe you wouldn't have picked up on.
Pete Corrielli
Oh, wow. Listen, I appreciate that, but it's like. It's like bread. My knowledge from books. It's like it has a fucking expiration date. Like, you know, within a year, I won't even remember the title of his fucking book. It's so sad. I hate that about it, though. You know, you only remember, like, nuggets. But the last story about falling out of the boat. Oh, my God, he almost drowned with the boat coming around in a circle, pulling out a knife, cutting his waiters off while he's drowning. His weight is all. If I'm drowning, I don't have to wear with all the gold. Let me get out my knife and Tom Cruise this situation. What the fuck?
I don't think.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Go ahead.
Pete Corrielli
Would you do it if you were dying and you had a minute left to think about how to solve the problem? Or a minute left to cry?
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'd die.
Pete Corrielli
Me, too. I just. One loud f.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I don't got that mind where I react in real time going, oh, I'm drowning. What's making me drown? Oh, the weights.
I don't do any of that. I just go down. That's it, we're done.
Pete Corrielli
That's a funny bit, bro. That's a funny bit. You don't go, oh, wait. If I tap on the door, the glass will shatter, and it'll give me time to pull myself up. If I just hold that. I just have to. If I could just reach, like, I'm dead.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Like, you see those videos where the car careens off the road and ends up in a lake, right? And it starts to submerge, right? And then you see the people in the Car, you know, like you said, either they have a mechanism that breaks the window or they're trying to get out. If that was me, boom, in the car seat, this is all you would see from out. You would just see me with the hands on the wheel, just going underneath. Goodbye, we're done.
That's it.
Pete Corrielli
And if I. If I did get out, like, saving people, nothing. I'd be like the Kennedy, right? I'd be just all wet on the fucking bridge, lying. I don't know what happened.
Is she here? Oh, she's still down there.
All right, welcome back. We're flowing along here with the little latest best of on the Pete Sebastian Show.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm.
Pete Corrielli
We're going into another one. It's. It's a video of Tom Cruise. And I'm only coming in right now to say, folks, that, like, the other day I felt compelled to tweet, Tom Cruise was being so polite to somebody, and it made me want to be more polite in my life. So I threw out a tweet, like, tom Cruise makes you want to be a better person. Da, da, da. Sarcastic, funny. Some guy writes back, pete, that's a little bouncy. Oh, God. There we go. My whole day was ruined. I didn't need to hear that. But some of you guys may think, like, what's going on with these two and their obsession with Tom Cruise? It's not an obsession. Someday you're all going to realize what I already know. Tom Cruise is as important to America as the Grand Canyon. Sit back, baby. Watch this video of a man doing his thing.
Why would you do that? Why would you do that? Come here. Come here. Why would you do that?
Why would you do that? Funny.
Advertisement Voice (1-800-Contacts)
Not very funny.
Pete Corrielli
No, no, it's okay. No, no, wait one second.
Monet X Change
What's so funny about that?
Pete Corrielli
It's ridiculous. If you like making less.
Is it you. You wrote, doing mean things.
Really? Hey, no, no, don't run. Don't run away. Don't run away. No, no, I don't care. That's incredibly rude. I'm here giving you an interview and answering your questions, and you do something really nasty. You're a jerk.
Well, you know what?
Advertisement Voice (1-800-Contacts)
Kind of.
Pete Corrielli
So I should be ashamed of yourself?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Kind of.
Pete Corrielli
Christian.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm sorry.
It's beautiful.
Pete Corrielli
So beautiful.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I mean, the composure. The composure, number one. In the moment of getting hit in the face, he almost, in the beginning is, like, laughing. And then he realized what the hell just happened and how he focused. And again.
The intensity. But the coolness.
In one. How could you? How could you? Like, if he would have flipped off going, you totally different. The guy would have ran away. But don't walk away. Oh, God. When he said that, I was like, yeah, run away.
Pete Corrielli
Don't run away. Look at me. And he goes, this is incredibly rude. Incredibly rude. First of all, he made jerk cool. You know what I'm saying? He's like, you're a jerk. And I'm not gonna lie, I didn't do it. But he's getting me closer. After that clip, I thought about Googling Scientology, how to sign up. Because if that's what's coming out of there, that level of class is coming out of those churches, then, yeah.
Now, I mean, I've been around Leah Remini. She's one of the most favorite people I've ever met in Hollywood. But there's a reason why they told her to split. She's walking around smoking a cigarette, dropping F bombs. That ain't no Tom Cruise behavior. Backstage, she's like a blast. But he's like, Mr. Polite.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I dare to say I'm going to adopt that type of response and behavior when dealing with my kids.
I mean, instead of yelling and just bring them in and going, that's incredibly rude.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah, but I don't know. You weren't in Top Gun. I'm not listening to you. It's like, you have to have the resume. You have to have that resume to talk like that. You know what I mean?
Sebastian Maniscalco
I don't know if you do or not. I think if you do, like.
You know what? I'm amazed. And I'm looking at this.
If I got squirt with water on the red carpet, there would be no one on my team that would have a fucking towel ready for me.
I mean, that blue towel was there in less than, I'd say, 40 seconds.
Pete Corrielli
I need your opinion on this. There's a guy. How do I. I don't want to say too much because it's in town, but he provides a service for me. Smart guy, upscale guy in the medical world. Anyway.
He almost died.
Sebastian Maniscalco
That's a. That's a mystery in itself.
Pete Corrielli
So anyway, he had a health scare. He almost died. Okay? I mean, really almost died.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It was a.
Pete Corrielli
And it wasn't like a disease. It was like a sh. I shocked the system. I don't know. Point is, it came out of nowhere. Almost died got better. Thank God. Really wonderful human being. The little. I noticed man. And the last time I was around him, now I say, how you doing? He's like 95% back. Just almost totally there with the weight, blah, blah, blah. And already a fun guy and an upbeat guy whenever I've been around him, but now even more so. And I'm wondering to asking you, do you think if you almost died and then you didn't, that you would always be in a better mood the rest of your life? You really, you know, like, that. You think it would give you that. Live for every day, man. Because you never know. What do you think, like, after, like, six months, you'd be back to having a problem? Yeah. As you said, it would wear off. It would wear off. It would wear off. That's hilarious.
Ah, it's like a brand new died. I'm grateful to be back, but it's wearing off.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, like, it's like a brand new car, right? You get the car, you got the new Tahoe, Right? And I'm sure in the beginning. In the beginning, you're like, don't touch the carpet. This and that. The other thing. But there's one thing that happens where you're like, fuck it, you know, if you want. If you want to. If you want to piss in the backseat, go ahead.
Pete Corrielli
Oh, God. So what do you. So then, what do you think your personal countdown would be on that? I mean, death's door. Almost a borderline miracle you didn't die. How much. How. Once you're healthy again, what do you think? How long would you just be in a good mood for before you go back to before it would fade?
A week?
Makes me wonder you even want to be here in the first place. Oh.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Before you know it. Come on, you're gonna. You're gonna be on an airplane, right? Let's say.
Pete Corrielli
Let's.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Let's say, God, bro, I was in.
Pete Corrielli
A good mood for a month after the Christmas bonus you threw my way.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Listen.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah, yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
You almost die. Yeah.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
You're back to 100. You're like, oh, yeah, man, I. I dodged a bullet there. You get on an airplane to go to a gig, guy says, hey, man, would you mind taking a photo of the. The mountains outside your window? Are you going? Yeah, you're probably going to revert back to get the. Out of here. Don't tell me you're all of a sudden Mother Teresa after you.
Pete Corrielli
How long dodged death. How long. How long was this since I dodged that?
Monet X Change
A week.
Pete Corrielli
Oh. Oh, God. A week, bro. I do. I'd be like panoramic and portrait.
Are you. Absolutely, absolutely. And then I'd be like, let's look at it together. Does it look good? It does look good. I might even hand them his phone back with the. God bless. God bless.
I might use that for like, three months, you know? I mean, you know, a week later, you don't even care anymore that you dodge death. That's.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I know, bro. That's just for comedy purposes. If I said three years, we wouldn't be like, that's not funny. A week is funny.
Pete Corrielli
Hilarious.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Absolutely.
Pete Corrielli
I couldn't agree more.
So I'm flying out after the casino gig, right? And I get to my bedroom that night at like 11 o' clock after the show. Ding from Delta. Sorry, your flight's canceled. We have no other options. We're going to refund you. That's it. Just leave me high and dry. So I text Lindsay right away. I go, here we go again, man. I know the lady's not available, but, you know, can we text her, I guess, as soon as she wakes up in the morning? Because I got nothing. So Lindsay being great is like, literally four minutes later. How about this one? It was a Southwest one, and I was like, that's great. It gets me home. At the same time, I just want to get home. And she goes, no problem. But because it's less than 24 hours, I just want you to know you're probably going to have to take a middle seat because the whole thing's sold and you're going to be the last one getting on. I was like, no problem. Just glad to be getting home. So I know I got to sit in the middle. So I get on last and I'm like, I'm not even going to go down the aisle and look for the aisle. First time I see two normal people, that's where I'm sitting. And there's a man and a woman, and I go, excuse me, can I get in there? And they both kind of separately. I didn't like their attitude faces about it. I was like, oh, would you guys think you're gonna have a middle seat to use as a fucking coffee table? Not happening. Sorry to ruin your little moment. Get halfway through the flight and he says something to her about, are you gonna grab the bag? No, I got the key. You get the bag. And I'm like, oh, they're married. And they do the thing on Southwest where they pretend they don't know each other and no one will sit in between us because nobody wants the middle seat. And then we'll have two seats for us, honey, me and you, that we can have. You know what I'm saying? Sit in.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Hold on, hold on. Let Me cut you off? Oh, God, yeah.
Pete Corrielli
I felt like I was in the middle of the threes.
Sebastian Maniscalco
So if that was the plan to begin with, and then you said, oh, could I sit there? I would go, no, you could take the aisle, and then you would just move into the middle seat to be with your wife. Right? You wouldn't let a stranger sit in between your wife, would you?
Pete Corrielli
It's a tricky thing because I said to Jackie, I did it all, so. Because I go, isn't that gross, Jack? And she goes, well, why didn't one of them just move over?
Sebastian Maniscalco
I go.
Pete Corrielli
Because then they would have to admit that they were being cheesy fucking losers trying to get a free middle seat.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Gross.
Pete Corrielli
It's a problem with this country. You know what I'm saying? Don't get me wrong.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I have my own little rules, and.
Pete Corrielli
I try to break the rules my own way, but you don't catch me. That was gross. Now. Now I'm in between a married couple because you. Yeah, yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm surprised you didn't go, oh, you do you want to sit here? Like, you should have put them in the position. Oh, I didn't know you guys were together. You want to sit here.
Pete Corrielli
I know what I want to do. I want to turn to the guy and go, you're lucky I'm married. Because if I wasn't, I'd be making out with your wife halfway home. All right, just to teach you a lesson, never put a seat between you and your wife, because you never know who's going to sit in it. Yay, Mr. Charming.
Again. Fake, fake, fake. Conceited. But so fun. Everybody should do that once in a while. Just fake. Be conceited. It feels so good.
Oh, that was a good story. Ironically, too. Recently, I flew southwest with my wife, and I took the middle seat to be next to her. We talked about that on the cast. By the way, this clip coming up, we talk about our wives and, you know, things that could be deal breakers in relationships. It was a funny conversation. But there was another episode. Episode. A recent one, if you haven't checked out. 382, I think it was cans. That's one.
682. I don't know why I said 382. 682 is one of our recent ones, man. We went in it about the wives. But here's another little clip about things that can ruin a relationship.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Why is this so hard to understand? I have a problem with the apple. She had a problem with the sush. Now in your in your head. That's her problem, right? The sush. She. She doesn't know how to deal with the sush. Right. So you're telling me that's her problem to figure out? I just.
Pete Corrielli
That's different.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, no.
Pete Corrielli
Why? Because that's a. That's a personality. That's a. That's a thing. A saying. It's a personality thing. It's not like something a little more.
How would I put it? Like, if you, like.
Itch a certain way or. Well, let me just give my example for me, is.
Passing of gas situation.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay?
Pete Corrielli
You know what I'm saying? Like, I could do it. I could do it. I could do it to Jingle Bells if I wanted to.
And I. And I will go so far as to say I enjoy it. It's like.
It'S relieving, dude. You know? But I would leave me for that. I'd be like, I can't come on with that. So, like. But that's something I can't just stop. Like.
Your ass aches, for example. She must get tired of those. Like, every time you turn around, you got a problem with your body.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Right? And you know what? I've taken the notes, and I've stopped complaining about this, that, and the other thing.
Pete Corrielli
It's highly entertaining for the cast, though.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Well, I mean, that's what I'm saying. Like, these little idiosyncrasies that we have about each other is, you know, is good entertainment fodder of what I do, what she does. That. That aggravates me. Now, there's another thing.
And again, there's a lot of things I love about my wife, but they're just not funny. Just not funny.
Pete Corrielli
Dude, I get it. You're a great husband. Of course.
Sebastian Maniscalco
So.
Lana has a problem finding stuff. I've noticed. Like, I'll ask her, or she'll go, can you get me the nail clipper.
On my sink top? Whatever, right? I'll go to the sink top. It's not there.
And then I'll go, it's not here. She'll go, oh, it's in the third drawer. I'll go, it's not in the third drawer right? Now, if I tell my wife, go, give me my comb. It's in the top right hand corner of the second drawer from the top, right? And boom, there it is.
Pete Corrielli
Right?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Now it's a scavenger hunt when she tells me to go get something because it's never in the place that she says it is, right?
Pete Corrielli
Yeah, yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Now, right again. All I'm looking for is to be heard.
Well, I'm hearing her.
Pete Corrielli
It's an interesting thing with what you're saying there, with the look of. Because first of all, I'll give you two. My wife's descriptions suck. She'll be like, I said, it was on the white shelf. And I'm like, it's not even white. It's red. And she's like, the outer edge is white. You know what I meant?
So I agree with that. But the other thing is, how many times are you expected to go where she told you to go to look for the nail clipper or whatever it was you were talking about, and it's not there? Just keep going. Or after the. After the third thing, do you do a walk away and go to her. You regroup, give it some more thought, get some more intel on its location, and then send me back out like a drone again.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I go three times. If it's not on the counter, I go to a drawer. If it's not on the drawer, I go to a floor. If it's not on the floor, I leave the room. Done. Sorry. You go get it.
Pete Corrielli
See, this is sitcom writing right there. That's why I love sitcoms. That's the opening scene. We only have a funny scene, then the credits roll. That's the opening scene. She's down there.
Sebastian Maniscalco
You're up there.
Pete Corrielli
Can you give me the thing? Not there. Can you give me the thing? Not there. You got. You're down to your last one, baby. Think wise, right? Yeah. So someone throws this in. Now we got the whole scene.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Boom.
Pete Corrielli
We go out. We go to the craft service table. Let's get some coffee. How's the writing going? We got the opening scene.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's hilar.
Pete Corrielli
And then the network people read it and go. We don't understand, though, why would you need the nail clippers at 6:30 in the. Oh, God, here we go.
Oh, God.
Advertisement Voice (State Farm)
Oh.
Pete Corrielli
Even though it could be a bowel situation, I think you gotta give Luigi, like, a capful a little bit. Little taste, you know, of the eggnog. Yeah, guy, come on, bro.
Sebastian Maniscalco
He'll shit the bed.
Pete Corrielli
A tiny. Just a. Dogs love ice cream. We go to the ice cream place and. And they make. They have little dog bowls for the. For the dog to have ice cream. Dogs love it. I mean, I don't know.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Of course they love it, but is that. Is that even good for their. Their sister?
Pete Corrielli
Yeah, bro, you give Luigi just enough to like. Like a beer cap full of eggnog and let him lick it and Then you just step away. Once he's done licking it, you see it click in with them. They get that. They look over like, what the fuck was that? And do you have any more? You know, it's like, Jesus, like you just blew crack right up their nose.
You can't deny Luigi to taste the eggnog. And his whole life, this dog's never going to taste eggnog. He doesn't have to guzzle just a. Just a little. Let them know what some of these things are out there, you know? Yeah, no, I gave. Oh, by the way, bro, did you do this yet? I gave my dog a piece of Petrelli's meat.
And I. And I held it like, so only a little bit would be at a time, because I know if I gave him too much, he'd swallow the whole thing. And he was nibbling around and I'm holding it so he can't pull it. He's trying to pull it out of my thing and I. And so I pull away and he'd have a little piece of his mouth and then he finished that and he'd come right back for more. And I'm looking at him like, guy, right? This shit is like. This is like literally biting right into the side of the fucking animal. That's how fresh Petro's meat is. You know.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I love him.
Pete Corrielli
My dog loves that. You know, when I give him something.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Like that, I know I haven't given him the meat yet, but I have given him some. Some jerky that I bought at the store. And you're right, man, this. This guy, he follows me around as soon as I go into the cupboard to go looking for stuff, I turn around, he's there just staring at me. And then if I give him a little taste of something you ever had, like you give them taste of something and put it on the floor and they eat it. They look up at you and I don't have any more. So they go back to the floor, still searching for any crumbs.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah, yup, yup, yeah. Like, they'll lick the floor where it was. Maybe if I lick hard enough, more will appear. That's. As a dog, though, your whole life, like. Like, have you taken your dog out yet? Like wherever. Like, I've taken my dog out and all of a sudden I'll go to the bathroom. And now I realize it had to go. It's a tough life, you know, like sometimes, like not being able to piss when you want, or you give it a little piece of meat, now it wants more And I gotta wait till you decide to give me more. Like, yeah, you know what I'm saying? Tough life. And it's not. I don't know.
Sebastian Maniscalco
It's not a tough life, believe me. This stuff's living like a king down there. I just went down there in between casts and he's just, he's just laying there sleeping. I walked by, kind of startled him, woke up, kind of got in there, gave him a little bro.
Pete Corrielli
I did the same damn thing. And I opened up the door to the outside for the dog. Oh, you want to go pee? And he just, he didn't even get out of bed. He just gives me a look like a mid nap guy. A mid nap.

Pete Corrielli
I have a problem when I go in my office to write or read a script or like something I'm working on. Like that man, I got about a 45 minute window and then my eyes are like waits like I just get so tired to the point where I sneak a pillow in my little office.
And you can't see me in there when I lock the door, like Jackie and Sadie can't. And I'll lay down on the floor and I'll just. So my wife thinks I'm in there writing or whatever. Not that she'd care, but I don't want my family to see me and I on the floor like a powder out for like 10 minutes and then I'll wake up and I'll write again. Then like 40 minutes later, my and my lids go back down and I can't go much more than an hour without needing like A five to ten minute nap. Now with the tm, are you just, like, you can just keep going.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I like the fact that you're what I call cheat sleeping. Okay. You act like you're doing something so bad, right? Like you're cheating on your wife. But.
But like. Like if you walked into a room and Jackie said, hey, I'm gonna go and go on the treadmill, right? And let's say you walked in and she was sleeping on the floor next to the treadmill, would you go, what are you doing?
Pete Corrielli
If she was on the couch, I wouldn't. If she was, I'd go, oh, you're not feeling well? Cause she never takes a nap.
Sebastian Maniscalco
So if Jackie walked in and when you were in, quote unquote, a writing session, which sounds more like a nap.
Pete Corrielli
No, 45 minutes writing.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Listen, let's.
Pete Corrielli
Let's call it. I've been very sympathetic to your tm, all right? So please.
Sebastian Maniscalco
But let's. Let's call. Let's call it what it is. You should just say, hey, I'm going.
Pete Corrielli
To call things what they are. Is that we're going to do now. Okay, I'll go after you.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Just call it what it is. You should just say, babe, I'm going in for a nap and I might wake up to write.
Pete Corrielli
Rather than I'm.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Going to write and I might take a nap periodically. So listen. Oh, yes.
Pete Corrielli
Sadie goes, dad, why do you lock the door? Because I don't want you to walk in and see me on the floor like I've been kidnapped by Al Qaeda. All right?
Sebastian Maniscalco
So do you think if Sadie walked in and saw her father sleeping at a small pillow on the floor, that it would totally.
Change her opinion of you?
Pete Corrielli
Yeah. I grew up. And I think you'll find this too, okay? My dad, I barely. I don't think I. My whole life, I don't think I ever saw my dad nap. And I saw him cry, like, once, maybe twice. And I think you grew up. Similarly, I feel that guys I grew up with, friends of mine who have seen their dad nap from time to time on the couch growing up, they don't have the level of respect that I have for my fucking dad because I've never seen that. Never come home, see my dad with a fucking afghan up to his chin watching reruns of Abbott and Costello because it's snowing out. Eat the fucking.
Oh, see that little ramp? That's even. I don't even do the tm.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I know, but if you had a tm, that. That rat would have lasted another minute.
Pete Corrielli
All right, guys, welcome back. Hope you're enjoying the Pete and Sebastian best of of the first four months. Cans just reminded me of my headphones. The first four months of 2025. Listen, we just put together some great clips, some Fun clips of 2025, the holiday season. I hope you guys are all getting settled in. Hope you got the shopping almost done, the trees decorated. Maybe the menorah is ready to go. See how I did that included everybody. Beautiful right there. Get that Dean Martin on. Get that Sinatra Christmas music going. Speaking of which, Sinatra, God, just another American treasure. This was a funny conversation we had because the cats listener. And we always appreciate you guys throwing us information, sending us a video or an article or something that might spark something. And a cast listener sent this to me, and, boy, do we have a ball with it. We had a nice conversation discussing Frank Sinatra's rider. Listen, enjoy. Somebody sent us, which I thought was so cool. They got a hold of Sinatra's backstage rider from back in the day.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, yeah, let's see that.
Pete Corrielli
And this is from Ryan. Ryan Campbell sent this. So thank you. Ryan. Check this out. I'll tell you right now. You see this thing? Sinatra wasn't doing no transcendental meditation.
You want to read them, Patrick? Frank Sinatra dressing room contents.
Sebastian Maniscalco
There's 37. So, Pete, pick out the ones that you think are, like, unbelievable.
Pete Corrielli
All right, well, the first one. The first four are pretty cool to me right out of the gate. Color TV with second input for in house pickup. Upright piano is number two for the dressing room, I guess. What is that? Warm up, bro?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah.
Pete Corrielli
And private telephone with a dedicated line.
And then this is number four. Is just beautiful one. Ready for this, folks? One bottle each of absolute vodka.
Jack Daniels. Shiv is regal. Is that how you pronounce that?
How do you pronounce the fourth one? Corsovo. How do you pronounce that?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Korsovo.
Pete Corrielli
Courvoisier. Okay.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Korsovo. It's a house. It's a city in. Where's Kosovo?
Pete Corrielli
Kosovo.
All right, how quickly we forget. Somebody misspelled similar, like five minutes ago. But all right, then we got a bottle of red wine, a bottle of white wine, and a bottle of beef feed and gin. Between that and the piano. I think Sinatra had parties in the green room. Like full on parties, man.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Definitely.
Pete Corrielli
And then. But then, bro, then number seven or eight is a fruit bowl. Like, well, what is he having? Like, grapes in between. Like, it doesn't make sense. Like, what's he doing back here? A gallon of spring water for tea.
12 wine glasses, six rock glasses. A double burner hot plate. A double burner hot plate. Was making fucking grilled cheese sandwiches, bro. This guy, look at it. Look at number, bro, read number 35. How beautiful is that?
Sebastian Maniscalco
One cart. A carton of Camels, though. Filter.
Pete Corrielli
Jesus God. That's what, 20 in a pack? 10x200 cigarettes, this guy.
Six boxes of Kleenex.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'm reading this over bowl of pretzels, bro.
I'm liking the 12 rolls of cherry Lifesavers. That sounds like a nice touch.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah, that reminds me of how they always have three of those. What do you call those? Suckables. They always have them on the stool for you right before you go out.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Halls, bro. I didn't even see this. Number 12 on Sinatra's list. What? What?
Three cans of Campbell's chicken and rice soup. This guy's eating soup.
Pete Corrielli
I'd love to know that. The Campbell's soup, like, is that like for the driver? Like the guy, the bus.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Here's one, two bars of Ivory Soap. That's the one. What's that?
Pete Corrielli
That's the one I wanted to see. That's a man right there, bro. I love Ivory soap. It's the only soap I've ever used that when I'm showering.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I'll hold.
Pete Corrielli
You ever just take the bar and I put it under my nose like it's cocaine? Like, oh, God. Fucking love the smell of Ivory Soap, bro.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh my God.
Pete Corrielli
I've never done that.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I've never done that. You've never done that? No.
Pete Corrielli
Oh God. But the problem with Ivory Soap is, I mean, the eczema comes out like insane. You buy Ivory Soap, I got a lather up, which I haven't touched Ivory soap in years. I can only use Dove on my skin. Sinatra was such a man. This guy's drinking hard liquor, showering with Ivory soap. He's probably using it as shampoo.
Smoking a carton a day. This is not the. This is not the. This is nothing like Seinfeld's TM Rider, I'm sure.
Sebastian Maniscalco
No, no, bro. I'm looking at six white bath towels. How many people are showering in this place?
Pete Corrielli
I know, man. I think Sinatra's got a show at 8 o'.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Clock.
Pete Corrielli
I think he gets there at like 6:30 in the morning. It's that time.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I had my shoes off prior to the turbulence. Right? So then in the. I mean, the wherewithal you have, you have to give it the wherewithal to be going through turbulence like that. Right. And to think, okay, if we crash now, it's sub below temps out there. If we crash and in some miracle I happen to make it.
I don't want to be walking around with my socks on.
So during the turbulence, I'm putting my shoes back on.
Pete Corrielli
When I came up again at dinner, I was going to tip my hat even more because I thought you were putting your shoes back on. Because through all the years of casting and how we're always on about men and their shoes and you keep your shoes on. I felt like you were like, I don't want to die. And then they find out, oh, God, he took his shoes off on the plane. Fucking tacky.
But I didn't realize you were doing it just in case you need to land and run.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I just didn't. I don't think it would be a good look if at the end of the day, there's a crash site. And then everybody died. And Lana came down to the crash site and one of the firemen came up and go, we found one of your shoes three miles back. I didn't want that to be a moment where they brought the shoe in going.
That'S a shooter they found.
Pete Corrielli
Let's see if we can find the other one for the other kid.
Come on. Come on. It's crazy, but I was saying to you.
And Patrick, maybe this is more your world. Maybe you have an idea about something like this, if you have an answer. But I was saying if. If they. If I had, like someone had a backyard a couple hundred yards or half a mile from the crash site. Like when that Philly plane went down and stuff went through the diner. So someone finds your. One of your sneakers in their backyard, and then they go online and see the last show you did was earlier that night in Green Bay. And you wearing the same sneaker. I got one of the sneakers that he was wearing the show, the night the plane went down. What do you think you get on the ebay for that in an auction?
Sebastian Maniscalco
$3.
Pete Corrielli
Nah, man, you're not alive anymore. It's a. It's a huge bro. It's some, like, Buddy Holly shit.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Four dollars.
Pete Corrielli
Well, at least they get four for you. I was telling everyone else, I don't want to die with Sebastian because he'd hog all the ink. I told John we'd be there. The article would say, and there were six others.
All right, guys, again, still with you. Hope you're having a good time. I know I am. I wanted to say something before this clip started because it already happened. Again this year, you go to someone's house. Holiday season is right upon us.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Right.
Pete Corrielli
You go in, you can't wear your shoes inside, so now you're walking around in socks. You might not want to walk around in socks. I brought slippers once, and boy, did Sebastian give me a mouthful about it. But this is the great slipper debate. Sit back and enjoy. And again, happy holidays. Get the eggnog going, man. Light the fire. What are we doing? Greeting from relatives. You don't know.
Sebastian Maniscalco
The Coriolis are having a dinner party.
Pete Corrielli
Right.
Sebastian Maniscalco
You invite, let's say, a neighbor that you don't really see, or. Yeah, just friendly with them around the neighborhood, but they're coming over to your house for. For an occasion. It's not. It's. It's a non family member. Right.
Pete Corrielli
Okay, okay.
Sebastian Maniscalco
And they bring their own slippers to your house. What you take.
Pete Corrielli
Just hearing you say it. I'm envisioning my neighbor who I kind of like, who'd be maybe the one that might come over. And if I know I'm in a situation where I'm going to make him take his shoes off, I'm like, do I want to look at Chris's socks all night? No. If he turned around, he's like, I knew you wouldn't want me in my boots. I brought my own slippers from inside. I'd be like, what a move. I appreciate. I don't want to see a man's socks. Almost on the same level, I don't want to see his feet.
Sebastian Maniscalco
You don't want to look at a guy's socks as much as you don't want to look at a guy's feet. But let me throw a wrinkle. You said that you brought over brand new slippers. What if somebody brings over slippers that they've had in their home for two years? And on the top of the slippers, sometimes, you know, you see stains or maybe oil dropped when somebody was cooking, and you see, like, you know, just.
Right. They're you.
Pete Corrielli
I know what you're saying. I know what you're saying. Yeah, I. That's no good. You're envisioning a ratty old slipper.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Like someone.
Pete Corrielli
This is my favorite slipper, you know, I've had a feed, you know. Nah, nah. I mean, like the same thing with a sock. If you're gonna go. If I'm gonna make you take your shoes off, if you know you're gonna take your shoes off at someone. Someone's places, aren't you presenting them with a Sock that looks like it's like right out of the bag.
I agree.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I think you should have brand new socks if you're required to take off your shoes at somebody's house. But I'm going to throw another wrinkle in this, which I might start doing. What about this instead of a slipper? Because I feel like if you're sitting around a party and you're having a drink and you're in a argument or maybe a disagreement and you are in slippers, I feel like your credibility for whatever you're saying has been diminished. How about. How about.
Bringing over.
Bringing over brand new shoes? Like, you only have shoes. You have shoes that you. Okay, this is it. You go to our house, they're like, could you please take off your shoes? And you go, yeah, I'm just gonna put my indoor indoor shoes on. And they're like, what? Yeah, I carry around indoor shoes whenever I go to somebody's house, because there's no way I'm gonna walk around your house in slippers or socks. What do you think about having a.
Pete Corrielli
Got a problem with that? Yeah, you got a problem with that? I got two problems with that. It's a decent move. But first of all, you're making me, as the homeowner, take your word for it that they, like, I gotta do a DNA test on the bottom of those fucking things. You never did any walking ever. And number two, it's still. It's a. It's a. It's an outdoor shoe. It's a little rough on my carpet. We're either going with socks or a gentle slip of bottom. This is. This house. The floors of this house aren't designed for outdoor, you know, souls.
Sebastian Maniscalco
So I don't know. I don't know.
We'll have to see the listeners comment on that. Guys, if you're out there, you want to comment on this, drop it in the comments below. Nobody's going to read it, but drop it in the comments below.
Can you look up if the Pope is making. And don't tell me if he's making it or not. If you were to guess if the Pope has a salary, what do you think this guy's getting paid?
Pete Corrielli
I don't think he does. If he does, I'm saying, like, I'm going to do one of them traditional things, like a dollar, right? Nothing.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay, so if the Pope wants to go buy a car, is it on the Vatican? Like, how does this guy.
Pete Corrielli
Who's driving. It's a job till. Till death, bro. When is the Pope Ever gonna take his car to the 711 for a fucking Slurpee or something, you know?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay, okay. He wants to buy.
Pete Corrielli
A what?
Sebastian Maniscalco
A suit.
Pete Corrielli
That's what I'm saying.
Who owns a suit shop that's gonna charge the fucking Pope?
I mean, that'll be 7, $750 and. Okay, here. Here you go. And you're going to hell, right? I mean, come on.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay, okay, here it is. The Pope does not receive a salary. Instead, the Catholic Church covers all of his living expenses, including food, travel, housing, medical care, from the Church's funds. Okay, but what I'm saying is the Pope does not have personal assets or bank accounts. He cannot spend the Vatican's funds for personal use. So what the. How's this guy. This guy wants to buy a Nintendo Switch or an iPhone.
Where's that coming from? The Vatican.
Pete Corrielli
I think that's it. He just has to say, get me that. And they get it for him. Yeah, it's coming out of Vatican fund.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, but it said, no, personal.
Vatican funds cannot be used for personal use.
Pete Corrielli
Well, I mean, that makes no sense. Then he's got to.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay, Han. When the Pope retires, the Church continues to cover his living expenses and provide him with a home and other amenities. But my question, I guess, is, yeah, they cover his expenses, but, like, food, Is there a per diem this guy's getting? Or if he goes. He wakes up, he goes, you know what? I want to go to the best Italian restaurant in Rome. Set it up. Do they go Pope? That don't fall under the Church's.
Expenses.
Pete Corrielli
Great questions. Have you ever seen the Pope at a restaurant? A photo of the Pope just like, you know, out of fucking.
Sebastian Maniscalco
No. Boo.
Pete Corrielli
Is that a thing? Is he allowed to do that?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Hold on. We have another.
Pete Corrielli
These are great. You got to get that. This is what we got to ask the lady. We got to remember these.
Sebastian Maniscalco
From what I. Popes earn a salary of 32,000amonth.
Wait, so he does make a salary? What's that?
Monet X Change
This is just some guy named Chuck on the Internet.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, okay. So.
So, yeah, I guess we gotta ask this lady all these different questions, so.
Pete Corrielli
No, you're right. Because, like, what if the Pope wants caviar every day? I want caviar. Right? You're like, this guy's bankrupting us, man. Or do you just get what you want, man?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Well, to your point, who's gonna turn down the Pope for a suit? Who in the Vatican is gonna go, sorry, Pope, we can't get your caviar?
Pete Corrielli
Can you get Fired?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Well, does the Pope have firing capability?
Pete Corrielli
Can he get fired? Can the Pope get fired? Can like people come in and go, guy, you're out, you're a fucking, you know, we smell weed. We smell weed coming out of your fucking room. Caviar. Every day. We heard about the suits. We're done with you guys. We heard about this.
Sebastian Maniscalco
How was reentry back into the house? Now? I, I, I equate it to.
An astronaut, right? Yeah. Been up in space for a while. Come back down to earth for me.
Take some time to acclimate to the, to the new surroundings. Right. I've been floating in space for a while. I gotta get used to putting my feet on the ground here.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
At the house. So do you come in hot.
And are you right back into the family or is it like, daddy's home, he needs a couple hours to readjust to family life.
Pete Corrielli
Right. Well, I mean, it's interesting. Like.
Can you recall your first encounter with Lana? Is it a big hug and a kiss? Is it more of a welcome back?
Sebastian Maniscalco
I came home late on Sunday night, it was about 11:30, she was still up. But I had said to her, I'm going to sleep in another room because I didn't want to, I didn't want to. The kids get up and then I don't, you know, I don't get any sleep.
Pete Corrielli
You know what that sounds like? You know what that sounds like? I'm going to sleep in another room because I'm used to sleeping alone. Now.
That'S some fucking rock and roll. That's not good guy. That's somebody rob a plant coming back from a two year tour. You get in your own bed, you slide right into your own bed, anytime.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Generally.
Generally speaking, if I come home late at night, I generally just go into another bed. I don't want to really wake Lana up. And then I don't want to have the kids come in at 6 o'. Clock. I need to like, I need to like come too. So I'm in this other room, Lana texts me at 6:30, kids are up, want to see you, and of course I want to see them. I'm up. I don't even know why I even bother with the other room. I go in, got the kids, took them to school. But the day I gotta like, I gotta adjust.
I need a little time to like, let me go get a massage. Let me like ease into this shit. I can't like hit the ground running.
Pete Corrielli
Right? Yeah, no, it's fascinating. It's. Last night was my first Night, home. Okay. I just slept this morning. I woke up, right? Because I get home Monday, and about 3 in the morning, I can't sleep. And I get up and I go to the bathroom, and then I come back, I still can't sleep. I get up again, and it was windy, and I just opened up the shade in the other room and I'm looking out the window because I can't sleep. And I freaked myself out because I'm like, do I miss the road?
You know? Am I Hank Williams? What is going on over here?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Jesus Christ.
Pete Corrielli
Willie Nelson's got nothing on me. You know, I'm already wistful for the next. But I. I couldn't sleep, you know?
And I can't say it's about all men, but I know me. And I feel like it with you too. You're like the fun thermometer in the house. You know what I'm saying? Like, everybody in the house is only as fun as the thermometer is set. You know what I mean? Like other people. Yeah. Oh, you're in a bad mood.
Sebastian Maniscalco
That's too bad.
Pete Corrielli
I'm having a fantastic day, you know? But I feel like my wife and my daughter, like, if I'm even an ounce of not myself, they're like, oh, what's your problem? What's your. Right. Because I'm the thermometer. I'm the.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Yeah, no, I. That's a great analogy. The fun thermometer. And I saw that this Sunday. Yeah. So Sunday. Right. And I have a hard time. It's like. It's like Superman coming in from. Where did. Where did he live?
Superman.
Pete Corrielli
Krypton.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Krypton, Right.
Pete Corrielli
So I feel like.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I don't know why I turned to him for Superman.
Pete Corrielli
I feel like you know exactly why that.
Sebastian Maniscalco
No, you know what I feel like? I feel like. I feel like Patrick might have a Superman figurine on his shelf at home.
Okay.
Pete Corrielli
But it's a. But it's a collectible. That's what they write. Somehow that that makes it okay. But. Okay, you're coming from Superman's home plan.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I feel like when I'm on the road, I'm on Krypton. Then I hit home like Superman did when he was a baby. And he's in the crater, remember?
Right. And the family comes.
Pete Corrielli
Oh, what's this?
Sebastian Maniscalco
And, like, the fucking baby don't know what he's doing. He's lifting cars. He don't know. He don't know how to adjust.
Pete Corrielli
Right, Right.
Sebastian Maniscalco
By the way, that First Superman. First Superman. When Growing up with Christopher Reeve, when the baby comes down, and there was a point, I think he was in a cornfield.
Pete Corrielli
Oh, no.
Sebastian Maniscalco
He was on the side of the road.
Pete Corrielli
Right, right.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Running. And he was running faster than the car. Was his father in the car? Do you remember that? When he was the earth dad. Earth dad was in the car. Right. Christopher Reeves in his teens.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
And I think, look this up. I remember that's. I think he's on the side of the road running about 80 miles an hour, and the father's like, holy shit, we got a prospect.
Pete Corrielli
I remember that as a cornfield. It was like, real middle of nowhere. Yeah, man.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay, So I feel like I'm not comparing myself to Superman. I'm comparing myself coming from one planet and coming and entering into another planet.
Did I tell you what I told the teacher? I asked the teacher if Caruso's got any crushes on any girls.
Pete Corrielli
No. What'd she say?
Sebastian Maniscalco
I just threw that in there just to, like. You know, Sometimes I feel like there needs to be a little levity in the conversation. Talking about parent teacher conference. Don't you feel at the parent teacher conference that you have to be slightly funny just to let the teachers know that this is why I'm not here a lot?
Pete Corrielli
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Exactly.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Right.
Pete Corrielli
I've actually missed them. I miss them, which sucks. I hate when I missed. The past two years. I missed the parent teacher conference.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, wow. Yeah. No, I like to be there at the parent teacher conference. I mean, they're young, but now we're starting to get into, like. Seraphina was having trouble spelling. Right. Some words. So I cut right to the chase. I go, okay, where does this fall? You got 30 kids in here. Where is she with the spelling? Is she in the middle? She's like. She's in the middle to lower end, you know? Okay. That's all I needed to hear. I just said, don't tell me she don't. You know she's having trouble spelling a few words. Tell me how she's ranking amongst her peers so I could tackle this head on. All right. That's all I had here is lower than the mid. And now it's flashcards every night at the dinner table.
Pete Corrielli
Right, right, right. Off she goes, she's the worst speller in the class. She'd be like, okay, she won't be by Wednesday. All right? Trust me on that, dude. I walked in the door when I got home Monday, freaking walked through the door. Sadie hugs me and goes, I got a 90 on my math Test. I'm fine with that, but Mom's mad, right? And then I walk a little further in, and I see Jack in the kitchen. She gives me a hug. She goes, she's got a 90. And I go, yeah. And she goes, Matt, a 90s. It's, like, good. It's better than most. And I'm like, what do we tell you, Sadie? Better than most ain't good enough around here. It's gotta be the best. I go, you did it yesterday. You did the mock test, and you got everyone right. You knew how to do it, right? She goes, yeah. I go, so you know how to do it all right? Yeah. Did you feel like you got everything right on the test? Yeah. I go, so you're not pissed that you got something wrong? You don't know what it is? I go, that's mediocre. Not caring. That's mediocre. If you cared, you'd be like, God, what did I get wrong? I need that test back. You know? And I literally just walked in the door after being delayed. My flight was delayed seven hours after that whole freaking thing. And I'm right in it, baby. Right in it, man. So you know. Cause these kids.
Sebastian Maniscalco
What?
Pete Corrielli
What?
Sebastian Maniscalco
What? What?
Pete Corrielli
That's how she responds to that.
Sebastian Maniscalco
If I came home with a 90% on my math test as a kid, we'd go to.
Pete Corrielli
I know, right? Somebody's getting ice cream tonight.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Let's look up skin cancer. And where does that rank in deaths?
Pete Corrielli
I have to say, too.
Because you're a humble guy. Won't say, folks, this is 6,500 seats. Four shows in a row, sold out. It never ends, man. It was. It was so fun. That was a great crowd. It's unbelievable what you're doing out there, bro. That was a lot of fun, but everything I'm a little. One thing I got to say, because we've been pure honesty our whole run on this cast for years, we spent a lot of time together off stage. Now spend no time together in Florida. And best time you ever had. Off fucking stage ever.
Sebastian Maniscalco
And say off. And say off stage.
Pete Corrielli
I said practically. You practically said that. You said on and off. You did. You did. But no, but I saw the tan from your golf. And every day you came the green room, you were tan. It's not dark.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I know I was tan. I'm just telling you, this is the finish.
Pete Corrielli
It's a little light. It's a little light. I'd be darker. I'd be darker. I mean.
You got. Yeah.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Disappointed in your color.
Pete Corrielli
I didn't lay out.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Why not?
Pete Corrielli
I couldn't lay out. Well, I was staying at the facility, so people would see the show, and then they come over, and it's very nice of them, but it's embarrassing when someone just saw you perform and now they're looking at your white feet. What the fuck? You know what I mean?
Sebastian Maniscalco
You didn't tan. You did. Did. Because you were afraid of getting accosted at the pool.
Pete Corrielli
Not accosted in that way. Embarrassed. I don't even. Like, I don't even. You know, I don't even perform in sneakers, right? So I would be like, it's so embarrassing for me to be barefoot. Having someone discuss my show with me. It's, like, so vulnerable.
Sebastian Maniscalco
So I feel. I feel. Let's say, if you ever saw Billy Joel's feet, would that ruin it for you?
Pete Corrielli
I wouldn't even go up to him if he was barefoot. I wouldn't even go. Even if they said, billy Joel's calling you over for a daiquiri at the bar, the outdoor bar, I'd be like, is he gonna put sneakers? Because if so. If not, I'm not going over you. So I'm grateful for every single time. If someone says they enjoyed the show or they love the cast, don't. Come on. You know, I am, but I'm just embarrassed by my feet situation.
Sebastian Maniscalco
I. I get it. And. And I feel if you see your favorite entertainer or celebrity and they have no shoes on, it completely ruins it moving forward, how you view them as the entertainer. Like, if I ever saw.
I couldn't say, like, if you saw Frank Sinatra in a beautiful Italian loafer, would that ruin it for you?
Pete Corrielli
A loafer?
Sebastian Maniscalco
No.
Pete Corrielli
But honestly, I'm really not comfortable seeing my heroes in shorts. Even, man. Even the shoot, you know, it's like, I like to think my heroes of rock and roll wake up and pour whiskey into their coffee and light a cigarette, and that's how they live. I don't want to see the lead guitarist for Aerosmith jogging. What the fuck? You know what I mean? Like, and I know they do, but I don't want to see that. You know, I see Slash doing crunches in the gym.
Axl Rose on the treadmill. I got 10 more minutes, then we'll get a smoothie.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Is DYI.
People. Are they doing it to save money.
Pete Corrielli
Or are they doing it do it yourself? I said it wrong. Diy. Do it yourself.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Oh, okay. Diy. Are they doing it to save money or they truly love.
Building a desk?
Pete Corrielli
Doing.
Sebastian Maniscalco
You know, do they love it. They're like, oh, I love this. I can't wait to go in the garage and whittle out a bird feeder. I don't know.
Pete Corrielli
I think it's more personally of the first thing to save a buck when someone says, growing up at my house, I mean, my dad rented a jackhammer to put a fucking heating pipe in the kitchen in my house when it was DIY time. Everyone went, oh, shit, oh shit. What's gonna. You know. And that ain't for the fun of nothing. That's to save money. That's a world you know too, man, where your family grew up. Your dad did a lot of stuff too, didn't he?
Sebastian Maniscalco
Well.
Yeah, I didn't do as much stuff as my grandfather. I feel like the DIY kind of dwindled with each generation. But what I'm saying is, does your father in law, it seems like he loves to do stuff like this. Or is it just out of sheer necessity? I gotta learn how to fix the dishwasher because I don't got enough money for this guy to come out and.
Pete Corrielli
Fix it for me. No, no, never that. He's got plenty of money. Always had great job. Always had, you know, and he had a landscaping business that did great. His motto was, why get a guy, we'll do it ourselves. It's easy. I'll show you how to do it. And that's the thing though. He was great at everything. Almost. Usually the only thing he didn't mess with was cars. And he wasn't into going. He's not into heights, like trees, cutting trees, way high, all that kind of shit. But.
Everything from welding and whatever else in between. Yeah. He's like, we'll do it ourselves. We'll have a beer afterwards. We'll do it great. It'll be nice. So. And why pay somebody when we could just do it? That was his motto. But not like. But once Jackie and I would come home, then it would be more like.
You know, why are you gonna. Like if I got a hose? Why would you get that hose? You know, they have the other hose for half the price. That's all you need. You're not going to do much with the hose. It doesn't matter if the ho. You know, and you're like, I don't want to tell them I got this hose because they like that it's yellow and black, you know, because like. So it's that kind of stuff. It's the best way to put it. Mentality. They grew up that way. You know what I mean, you save a buck.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Got it. So let me ask you this. Is DIY.
Another name.
For cheap?
Pete Corrielli
No. No way. Totally disagree. I've done a lot of DIY projects on my property. Actually just went outside in between. Right before we started the cast standing on the patio. I put in with my father in law, the stone patio. One of the most backbreaking things I ever did. But I was ripped that summer. Woo. Casting. And I still stand out there. And now because it's getting warm. It was a warm day today. I'm like, man, this is nice. I can't believe I put this damn thing in. It's great. Instead of going, what was the guy's name? Is it Ken? Was it a Ken? No. See, I did it and it's great.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Okay. There is a level of accomplishment when you put together anything. Could be a patio, could be something as small as putting together a bike for your kid. Put that last screw on, go ahead, take it for a spin. And they get on. You're like, wow, an hour and a half. And now my kid's enjoying what I put together. Okay, yeah, yeah. So there is that level of like accomplishment and ownership that you have when you do something yourself. All right. But I think there's a fine line between that and.
Pete Corrielli
Yeah, but like, it's a di. It's a DIY world out there, guy.
Sebastian Maniscalco
Once you get out of this. I'm saying, in my experience, the DIY and the cheap go hand in hand based on the people I know.
Pete Corrielli
Do you do any diy? Any.
Any.
Sebastian Maniscalco
No.
Pete Corrielli
Well, we laughed, we cried, we didn't stand up. And I never got that too. Right. When they hear a movie review, we laugh, we cry that we stood up and cheered. Who's who. The stands up and cheers. Anyway, we had a good time. I had a good time. I hope you guys fun listening to some of those clips from early 2025. Well, happy holidays. We got a lot more great memories to make on the Pete and Sebastian show. And none of this, none of this would be possible if you guys didn't tune in and listen. So again, we thank you for that.
