LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jimmy Kimmel extended a warm welcome to Pete Holmes, celebrated for his hilarious stand-up comedy and sharp wit, on his show. The comedian entertained the audience with a story about how he met his wife, Valerie.
The interview kicked off with Pete sharing anecdotes about his encounters with various celebrities, including Diddy and Snoop Dogg. It seems Pete is no stranger to rubbing shoulders with the stars. He even recounted the time he asked Snoop Dogg to give him a nickname, and the result was the amusing moniker, "All Whitey."
Pete Holmes' hilarious take on Q-tips
Pete's storytelling skills were on full display as he regaled the audience with an amusing anecdote about a Q-tip mishap that occurred during a visit to a corn maze.
One of the standout moments of the interview was when Pete discussed a peculiar fascination shared by many – Q-tips. He hilariously criticized the misleading information printed on Q-tip boxes, suggesting their use for "first aid, baby, and beauty" while omitting their primary use for ear cleaning.
As the conversation progressed, Jimmy Kimmel turned to the topic of Halloween, a holiday loved by many. Pete revealed that he and his daughter were planning to dress up as Ninja Turtles, with his daughter taking on the role of Donatello while Pete would be Raphael.

His playful declaration that Valerie is "such a lucky woman" prompted applause and laughter.
Their love story commenced in a humorously fitting setting, as Pete quipped, "How did it happen between - My wife and I met at Cobbs Comedy Club - and you're seeing a trend in San Francisco, I was at a comedy club. And she waited in line - and I tell this when I tell this story - I go, I can't say it was love at first sight but the years pass [and] I'm like, yeah, she was in this blue polka dotted dress and I was like, oh my God."
"And we hung out and we stayed in touch and we started meeting in San Francisco. Then we started meeting in LA and then we moved in together. We went from long distance to moving in together," he added.
As Pete narrated this charming tale, the audience couldn't help but be swept away by the warmth of his words and the authenticity of his emotions.
