Tig hosts Pete Holmes, the actor, writer, and comedian behind the HBO comedy “Crashing,” who has two HBO stand-up specials and hosts the “You Made It Weird” podcast. Pete talks about his frequent encounters with a ghost and his personal secret to happiness. Tig and Pete give advice to a man whose toxic boss wants to join his weekly game of Dungeons and Dragons, help a woman who thinks her hilarious but shy sister should do standup comedy and, amazingly, find themselves agreeing with an advice columnist from 1929.
