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.

  • First Day As a U.S. Citizen
    May 6 2025

    This week’s caller became an American citizen hours before the call, so naturally, she gives Gethard an impromptu citizenship test. They cover life as a Canadian transplant in the South, share their love for ‘80s wrestling nd reflect on what it really means to be an American. She also hints at a near-kidnapping story, but you’ll have to head to beautifulanonymous.com to hear that.

  • SEX GOD
    Apr 29 2025

    From Neptune to everywhere and back again. Our caller is in love, looking for joy, and figuring it out along the way. This one’s silly, heartfelt, and a little all over the place, just the way we like it.

  • Parade Girl Gets Parade Girled
    Apr 22 2025

    Gethard is finally taking a well-earned, long-overdue vacation. But we’re not leaving you hanging. Instead, we brought in a past caller/frenemy of the show who knows exactly what makes a great Beautiful/Anonymous call.

    If you’ve been around for a while, you know Parade Girl as the caller who somehow cracked our phone system and sparked a whole saga. This week, she ends up chatting with a caller who shares her and Gethard’s birthday and who gives her a taste of her own medicine.

    Geth’ll be back next week. In the meantime, enjoy this weird little break from our regularly scheduled programming.
