2026 Aspen Laugh Festival: Pete Correale

Pete has performed on numerous late night tv shows such as The Tonight Show, Letterman and Conan. as well as filming three of his own one hour television comedy specials, THINGS WE DO FOR LOVE, LET ME TELL YA and the last being on FOR PETE’S SAKE. He has also released two comedy albums, GIVE IT A REST and MADE FOR RADIO.

Pete is also the co-host of The Pete and Sebastian show, a podcast with comedian and longtime friend Sebastian Maniscalco.

The Pete and Sebastian Show is one of the most wildly popular comedy podcasts on air today.  The show is almost 10 years running with an ever growing fanbase and has featured guests to the likes of Bill Burr, Jay Mohr, Bobby Lee, Yannis Pappas, Billy Gardell and more!

Aside from his podcast, Pete has been a staff writer on several tv shows, most recently Kevin Can Wait on CBS as well as The Crew on Netflix.

Pete’s love for entertainment started when he went off to college.  During his senior year, Pete took an acting class and knew immediately what he wanted to do - be in show business.  This burning desire has evolved for over 20 years to what we know it as today - a reflective comedic take on his life and the experiences he’s been through.

With a conversational delivery and his trademark disarming regular guy attitude, Pete makes you feel like you’re listening to the funniest guy at a party as opposed to just another comedian on a stage.

His tours continue to grow exponentially as more and more people discover him and immediately fall in love with his accessible and extremely relatable point of view.

Because of this, Pete has evolved from being a must see on the club scene to now a nationally recognized headlining theater act.

Recently he’s coming off of Sebastian Maniscalco’s record breaking “It Ain’t Right” arena tour where he has been capturing the eyes and ears of fans all over the country.
