À propos de cet audio
Part autobiography, part philosophical inquiry, part sacred quest - The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck for the spiritual seeker - a hilarious, profound, and enlightening romp around the fertile mind of standout stand-up comedian, host of the hugely successful podcast You Made It Weird, and star of HBO’s Crashing Pete Holmes.
Growing up as evangelical Christian outside Boston, Pete Holmes was taught that drugs, alcohol, and premarital sex were serious transgressions. Faithful to the tenets of his faith, Pete did not swear, did not drink, did not smoke, and did not fornicate. He did devote himself to one woman, married her, and moved to the country to start a simple life and build a family. Then the wife he pledged himself to cheated on him very publicly. Thanks for nothing, God.
When his attempt at a picture-perfect life failed, Pete was forced to reexamine his beliefs. But neither atheism, Christianity, nor copious bottles of Yellow Tail led to enlightenment. Longing for a model of faith that served him and his newfound uncertainties about the universe - you know, the little things - the scorned believer embarked on a soul-seeking journey that has become the foundation of his work today. Comedy Sex God is his funny, thoughtful, straight-from-the-heart mediation on life, creativity, love, God, and the things that matter to him - and to us all.
Pete ponders the most valuable spiritual truths he’s picked up in his post-religion life and shares a few personal stories - of professional success, failure, and the pain in his balls. Comedy Sex God is celebration of losing something to find something else - a void that became a door to spiritual exploration - a glorious journey into the mind-blowing unknown that never would have begun if your wife hadn’t cheated with a guy named Rocco.

Life changing
This book has helped in ways I can’t even put into words, growing up the same way Pete did and having him voice fears and revelations about his life, brought so much comfort and knowing to who I am as a person. This book is funny, real, stretching and full of love.
Recommend to anyone who is searching for truth, anyone who has come out of the church and anyone who still maybe cry’s at night because trying to understand it all is all too much.

Similar paths
I found Pete’s standup years ago, but I was not ready for it. I had left a high control doomsday religion when I was 40, and like Pete’s parabolic journey, I threw out the baby of spirituality with the bathwater. It was only after a few profound experiences that I rediscovered this part of my soul, and my journey has closely followed what Pete outlines in the only way he can; hilariously and with heart. What a great book.

Amazing!!!
I thought I was a big fan before this book. This book has increased my love for Pete. This is a must for any Pete Holmes fan. His telling of his journey through comedy, faith and life is an eye opening look on our own journey.
Thank you Pete.

That’s the work
This book totally changed the way I think feel and live. I could not recommend it more. Pete is incredibly honest and I can’t imagine anyone else explaining this mantra of knowledge any better than he does. Please read or listen to this book.

Woah
So much more than a comedy memoir. It’s funny and makes you think and mostly makes you feel love all around. Worth every minute, be prepared to bookmark and go back about 100 times.

Enjoyable, but not what I expected
I love Pete Holmes, but this was 75% God (or more accurately, spirituality) and 25% Sex and Comedy. I wish it had been the other way around.

Very enjoyable. Lots that I related with
Very enjoyable. Lots that I related with. I appreciate hearing Pete’s journey. This book is introducing me to new concepts I haven’t pondered about life, Christianity, and religion as a whole. Nice work Pete.
