Beautiful Stories From Anonymous People

By: Chris Gethard
  • Summary

  • 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.

I really love this podcast because it helps me have empathy for people who are different from me. on the same note it helps me know I'm not alone. it is random but also very intentional. it reminds me we are all human and have unique experiences that bright is to where we are today

Delightful

Loved this caller! Hilarious and thoughtful. An "agent of chaos", indeed. I hope you get that triple dick pic and many more, well beyond your 40's.

A waste of time

You wasted your time and a little bit of my time in recording these stories. Why don’t you get a life?
