Rach Angard
Rach Angard proves that "the only normal people you know are the ones you don't know very well".
Rach was born in California and moved young to the suburbs of Colorado. Here, she went through high school slowing learning to grow into her younger self's proclamation that RACH IS FUNNY! After finishing an English Education degree at the Metropolitan State University of Denver and starting grad school, Rach decided to chase her dream, leave school, and dive into comedy. Starting in improv classes, she quickly found her true love in performing stand up. Now she continues to hone her craft around the Denver area as a standup and as a member of Rise Comedy. Rach truly embodies the watery creative process as she insists on being the author of her own life. We hope you enjoy getting to know Rach as much as we did!

Customer Reviews
This is the best
This is one of my favorite pods now. Great interviewers and great guests. It feels like I’m meeting a bunch of people!
A great listen!
I’ve only listened to part of one episode and I already thoroughly enjoy the premise of this podcast. The chemistry of the hosts, the insights of the guests, and the strong editing all come together into a great listening experience.
Hey, I know these people!
I started to listen to Know Normal People because a few of the folks being interviewed are friends of mine, and I am now hooked to the podcast, and quickly making my way through the rest of the archives! I live in Billings, and so hope to run into the Hennings in person! They are delightfully interesting and inviting hosts! I love the premise of this podcast, and am loving getting to know the people they invite on.
