Why Pete Holmes Stopped Looking for God
About this episode
Pete Holmes discusses his journey through faith, mental health, and the role of comedy in his life.
Comedian Pete Holmes (Silly Silly Fun Boy, Crashing) returns to dig deep into Christianity, non-duality, consciousness, and what it means to find God after your faith falls apart. He opens up about divorce, depression, anxiety, sexual shame, and how the comedy community that inspired Crashing carried him through one of the lowest periods of his life. They also explore why “everything belongs,” how awareness can loosen anxiety, what Jesus teaches us about losing, and whether AI has become humanity’s newest golden calf.
