Pete, 29, confessed to the Late Night host and his actor brother that his mom Amy created an account, using an alias Twitter handle, to fight back against online trolls.
The Bupkis star admitted: “My mom used to have a fake Twitter account when I first got SNL.”
He continued: “It was, like, my second or third year, and it was a lot of ‘he’s not useful’ typical Twitter comments and my mom made a f**king fake Twitter account under the name @JoeSmith1355 and would respond to everyone.”
Pete disclosed that Amy wasn’t very successful at keeping her identity under wrap as he joked: “It was so specific, like, ‘Actually, I heard he’s working on himself and does that quite often.'”
The King of Staten Island star revealed that his mom was “found out because her username was @JoeSmith, but her profile name was Amy Davidson and the profile picture was Amy Davidson.”
Pete explained: “So, it was a picture of my mom, with a name that said @JoeSmith1355, commenting on all these haters,” before adding, “She got my back, dude.”
During the same podcast, the comedian opened up about the complications caused by his compulsive ferry purchase.
Pete, who bought the ferry in January of 2022, explained his plans for the vessel to Seth and Josh.
“We just got all the plans built, and we had them do one of those computer-generated, show-you-what-it-could-be type-things.”
He added: “And now we’re out to a few people, and it seems like it’s all going well, but it’s definitely, like, five years away.”
The native New Yorker detailed his huge goals for the ferry, describing: “There’ll be a restaurant, there’ll be a concert venue, there’ll be a movie theater… and then there’s hotels in it, so we’ll have a couple of those, and then in the winter, [we’ll] tug [the ferry] to Miami.”
Seth complimented: “Wow, you’ve really thought this through.”
However, Kim Kardashian’s ex-boyfriend sounded less celebratory about the state of his plans, admitting: “We have to… we’re in the hole.”
CAPTAIN PETE
Pete purchased the ferry with his former Saturday Night Live co-star Colin Jost, 41, but has since encountered numerous delays in getting it running.
The comedian shared his regrets about buying the vessel with Entertainment Tonight while on the red carpet for the premiere of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts earlier this month.

During an interview, the reporter asked Pete if he’d be partying on his boat after the event.
“Yeah, if it’s not sunk!” he jokingly responded.
He then added that he wasn’t so sure about the future of the ferry boat, confessing that he wasn’t clear-headed when he made the decision.
“I have no idea what’s going on with that thing. Me and Colin were very stoned a year ago and bought a ferry. And we’re figuring it out,” Pete explained.
The King of Staten Island star then related his boat to the Transformers franchise, joking: “Hopefully, it turns into a Transformer and gets the f**k out of there so I can stop paying for it!”
However, Colin later refuted the claims, and wrote on Instagram: “Is it worse that I was actually stone-cold sober when we bought the ferry?”
MENTAL TUNE-UP
In 2017, when Pete was 23, his therapist diagnosed him with borderline personality disorder (BPD).
“I got diagnosed with BPD a few years ago, and I was always just so confused all the time, and just thought something was wrong, and didn’t know how to deal with it,” he said in a conversation with actress Glenn Close, 76, during Variety’s Actors On Acting.
He added: “Then, when somebody finally tells you, the weight of the world feels lifted off your shoulders. You feel so much better.”
Last week, the film and TV star placed himself in a rehab center in Pennsylvania amid his battle with borderline personality disorder and PTSD, Yahoo reported this week.
One source told Page Six: “Pete regularly goes to rehab for ‘tune ups’ and to take a mental break, so that’s what’s happening.”
A second source told the publication: “Anyone who knows Pete knows that he will always step up and get help when he knows he needs it.
“He has a lot of people in his corner who love him and support him, and are proud of him.”
One of those people is his girlfriend Chase Sui Wonders, 27.
Pete and Chase are reportedly still going strong since the comedian entered rehab.
Both the City On Fire actress and her family are supporting Pete while he’s undergoing treatment, an insider told Page Six.
