Pete’s like anti-Chris. He is always complementing the Boys. He’s humble as opposed to Chris’ character. He is very hyper and cheery unlike the grumpy British man. It is like they are yin-yang.

I know this sounds crazy but as someone who's younger and slowly getting ready for university without having a clue in life, hearing Pete say that the last 4 years in his life have been the most fulfilling or just interesting so far at 40 really makes me realize how stupid my own worries about life are. I don't know if it's always been like this but especially with how the internet is nowadays, it feels like if you haven't got everything figured out by ~20, you're wasting your time. I have big dreams for sure and I don't know if I'll ever reach them but just hearing Pete's story and seeing how his life has taken a big turn with streaming at his age really eases my mind and makes me realize I have so much more time. Thank you.

[@NCR_]

As someone who got a late start to university due to loss bc of the pandemic as well as not knowing what I want to do, I felt the same kind of reassurance hearing all that you mentioned as well as Pete talking about being in university at 24. This episode was dually reassuring and hilarious def one of my favorites. Glad to know I'm not the only one who felt uplifted by his talk about this sort of stuff! Cheers to you, follow your bliss and chase those big dreams!

[@slimii275]

Yeah even though I'm just in my 20s, Pete gives me hope about getting old haha

[@ArmitageShanksuk]

As someone that just turned 40? This has always been there (your life is over after 25 etc etc "Have kids before you're 30! QUICK! DO YOU REALISE HOW OLD YOU'LL BE BY THE TIME THEY'RE 18!?!") Ignore it all, my 30s were a blast because I stopped caring by the time I hit 27 and just started enjoying life rather than looking over my shoulder all the time.

[@DeltaEntropy]

I’m graduating college at 25 years old with a degree in theatre, three to four years later than my friends and cohort, some of which who are now graduating from graduate school or well towards becoming doctors or lawyers. I’ve got a ton of exciting opportunities ahead of me and I’m thriving in my hobbies and interests. I’m also flying across the country for a concert for the first time.

Theres one clip of Pete and Connor drinking and they were talking how when Pete was in school, they isolated Pete, thinking he has a disability, and basically saying he's not gonna make it when he's older. The fact the he got out of there and has such a strong will is respectable. Just wanna express my appreciation for Pete, he doesnt complain even during long streams like in Connors trips etc, always brings a positive mood during the duration of every streams and in general a great positive person. My goat Pete💙

[@sayantanmazumdar3]

That clip was simultaneously hilarious and sad. ASD and ADHD were so poorly studied about back then, and the ignorance of the public schooling system ruined so many potential careers. I am glad Pete got out somehow.

[@taiga17]

@sayantanmazumdar3 yeah exactly, when I first heard it i was in shock, i wasn't really paying attention and had to rewing the clip, and by the time I heard what he said i was actually mad for him, because imagine if he didn't believe himself that he's normal and went on with the schools bs, the outcome would be so different, but it's the fact after all these bs he experienced in school and in general then, and to have a strong heart and will to not be angry and joke about says alot about Pete, because just that story alone makes me mad at his school

I don't often leave comments on youtube but for some reason it feels necessary today. So, I've almost exclusively seen Pete through other creator's content, I think beginning with the Abroad in Japan podcast maybe 3 or 4 years ago when one day it was suddenly "American Pete" and I was like hey where the hell is my non-american pete?? Since then he's been one of my favorite cameos. But....at some point during this episode I started to get worried that it was going to end soon because I was thoroughly enjoying the conversations. Pete is a great story teller and seems to find ways to effortlessly relate to the people around him. Not to be too parasocial, but I imagine he is just as compassionate and passionate in his offline life as well. Anyway, all this to say I think now is the time I begin to seek out some other American Pete content, cause at some point during this episode I started to get worried that it was going to end soon. The relief I felt when I saw that I was only 53 minutes in was palpable. Anyway, fire dynamic between you four. GGs

[@segvloger6764]

In college now but for me growing up it was pretty stigmatized if you were having sex and lost your virginity, that’s my experience at least, especially if you were under 16 and definitely under 18 it was majorly stigmatized as well and if you were an openly horny mfer people thought you were just cringe and small brained

[@Min1mum]

I’m a d1 college athlete and don’t really fit in with my peers. But I definitely see the pressure among my peers on the team. They’re like children and pester me about it all the time 😭. They’re so loud about it and the sex talk is non stop

[@Metawraith]

Damn, that's crazy because back in my day, theatre and band kids were the horniest fuckers around, and many of them absolutely were fucking. Much to a lot of their regrets later on in life as I found out. The boys are right, though, it's nothing to worry about. Just don't waste your time after high school worrying about every moment-to-moment social thing like I did. Focus on establishing a stable lifestyle.

1:33:24 Highschool student here!! I'd say there definitely is one from what I could tell when talking to guys my age or hearing them talk with eachother.

But anyways, I'd say the pressure is still there although it might be smaller now and maybe the older highschool students don't feel it anymore. I'd also just like to add that even if there isn't that much pressure over losing your v-card there 100% is one with dating but that might be normal for highschoolers

Notice how such culture came from shows like American Pie, Sex in the City, etc. Simply put, it highlights the power of the owners of media, especially regarding tv shows and movies.

We are constantly being "influenced" by media and even influencers and we should really be conscious on what ideas we take on, and evaluate for ourselves if such ideas should be part of our identity.

As an American i can confirm it is a vibe and need to want the coolest basement. I am currently saving up to fund a dig out of a basement in my home. Also, in terms of separate large freezers at least in my experience we were raised to always have at least 3 months worth of food on hand in case something happened (whether it be frozen meat for when price increases or scarcity, or canned food - this rule really came in clutch when my uncle who I was talking care of and living with passed away while my partner and I had just finished up school and were still looking for a jobs as my uncle paid for the house and food at the time.). There is something about America where we always think everything is gonna go to shit at any moment so we prepare. We also often had a 2nd fridge just for drinks.

1:33:21 most of the pressure I've gotten to lose my virginity has actually been from older people still having those kinds of expectations to lose it early. although, a lot of people I know have been messing around like that since ~15 so it really depends what environment you're in. those people who do end up doing that earlier on also mess around with drugs like weed and things like that more often than not, which isn't a bad thing and I actually think is fine as long as they're safe and not abusing it. on the flip side, I have friends who are totally innocent in that regard and don't even use the Internet, so they definitely don't experience that societal push to lose their virginity or even date. you never hear about their perspectives due to them not being online which is kinda crazy.

Pete's life is like a movie dude

18 year old from the US here. The pressure to lose your virginity in high school is certainly less than when y’all were growing up, but it still exists in the background. I’m a college freshman now and am the only one of my guy friends who has never dated someone. They never said anything about it so it’s not so much an external pressure as it once was. I would say the high-school and college hook-up culture certainly still exists, but I find that I am much more interested in trying to start properly dating someone than I am in losing my virginity.

1:33:40 As a younger person, there is not that pressure at least where I’m from. People lowkey just be doing their own stuff, and if there is someone who’s trynna put pressure, they’re just seen as weird
