Beautiful Stories From Anonymous People

1 phone call. 1 hour. No names. No holds barred. Thats the premise behind Beautiful Stories from Anonymous People, hosted by comedian Chris Gethard (the Chris Gethard Show, Broad City, This American Life, and one of Time Outs 10 best comedians of 2015). Every week, Chris opens the phone line to one anonymous caller, and he cant hang up first, no matter what. From shocking confessions and family secrets to philosophical discussions and shameless self-promotion, anything can and will happen! Theme song by Shellshag.

    America's Favorite Boy

    A soon-to-be college grad, raised in Appalachia, calls in to talk about his next adventure—moving to Antarctica. But as he and Gethard dig deeper, it’s clear this journey is about more than just travel. Life’s thrown a lot at this caller, but he’s put in the work, and come out the other side. Now, with med school on the horizon, he’s taking a detour to the edge of the world. It’s a heartfelt conversation with a caller you’ll be rooting for.

    The Worst Karen

    Black mold, leaving a soul-sucking sales job, and Gethard’s connection to a cross-country trip in a car full of weed. Our caller wasn’t sure where this one was going when she called in, but she and Geth take it in so many fun directions. It’s a Good Vibes episode where two people spend an hour chasing a conversation wherever it decides to roll.

    This Is Life. You Get One Chance to Live It.

    A skydiver who swears she’s not an adrenaline junkie calls to talk with Gethard about the joys of plummeting to earth from 13,000 feet. She’s got 500 jumps under her belt, and only one of them has ended in two broken feet. She shares an action-movie-worthy story that is possibly the most harrowing tale we’ve ever heard on the show. Fair warning, this one’s intense. But it’s also fun and–if you’re looking for an excuse to do something that scares you–inspiring, too.

    Sexy Renegade Clowns

    This week’s call kicks off with a tour of the caller’s room as she describes the objects around her. And from there, it takes off in a bunch of fascinating directions–from wiener dog races, to Chicago comedy clubs, the fact that sexy renegade clowns are definitely taking over, and why we should all be living by The Artichoke Capital of the World Philosophy.  Sign up for Beautiful/Anonymous+ to get ad free episodes and access to exclusive audio including 5 Random Questions with this week’s caller.

    Grandma Is a Thief

    This week’s caller wants advice on how to spend an unexpected $40,000 gift from her kleptomaniac grandma, but what starts as a light-hearted question quickly turns introspective. She talks with Gethard about financial struggles, mental health, recovery from addiction, and the pros and cons of using the money for practical needs—showing how one windfall can spark big questions about life and growth.

    I Know What Living Through Hell Feels Like

    An Uber Eats delivery driver takes Gethard along for the ride as he makes his deliveries and shares some stories from the road. In typical Beautiful/Anonymous fashion, the conversation takes a deeper turn as the caller opens up about a series of challenges that would stop most people in their tracks and shares how he’s found meaning in pushing through.

    The System Is Wrong

    This week’s caller shares an incredible story about receiving a tough phone call regarding her ex-husband and the lessons it taught her about the broken justice system. She opens up about standing up for what's right, even when the system fails, and being a voice for those who can’t defend themselves. It's a compelling reminder of why doing the right thing matters, even—and especially—when it's not the easy thing.
