‘Pete & Me’ is a deeply funny, unexpectedly moving comedy special from Graham Kay that blends sharp stand-up with heartfelt storytelling about life alongside his older brother Pete, who has profound autism. With his signature dry wit, Graham unpacks family chaos, childhood resentment, adulthood, loneliness, guilt, and the strange, tender rituals that define their bond. The result is a rare special that is as honest as it is hilarious—an intimate, offbeat portrait of brotherhood, responsibility, and the kind of love that doesn’t always look conventional, but lasts a lifetime.
