In this heartwarming episode of Electric Pete, gratitude takes center stage — and it comes from every corner of Philadelphia.

From co-workers celebrating two unforgettable days together… to a rider grateful for God's blessings… to friends visiting from Chicago and Nashville… to a young man sharing the most vulnerable moment of the day…

This episode proves one thing:

👉 There’s always something to be grateful for.

Electric Pete invites riders to share what gratitude means to them — and the answers are funny, surprising, heartfelt, and deeply human. You’ll hear:

• A group of upbeat colleagues grateful for good work and even better people
• Two best friends with drinks, faith, and a whole lot of personality
• Visitors from Nashville, Chicago, and Philly sharing love for family and dentistry
• A musician who drops knowledge about fossils at 30th Street Station
• A group of young men who bring humor… and then unexpectedly open up about hardship at home

And at the end? A rider’s honest truth about his mom being homeless creates a moment Pete will never forget — and reminds us why these stories matter.

This episode is pure gratitude energy — laughter, authenticity, connection, and emotion — all in one charged ride.
