Chris Gethard

Beautiful Stories From Anonymous People

This week's caller has been listening since the beginning and thinking about what she'd say when she finally got through. Ten years in, she tells Gethard about the life that's happened in the meantime: meeting her now-husband during a very heavy chapter for his family, spending a year on a sailboat, and the shape of her family today. But first, we kick things off with some Jersey mall talk.

I Just Want To Be a Bridge

For Gethard's birthday, we're doing something kinda stupid but also totally sincere: an entire episode about Avatar: The Last Airbender. After months of threatening to turn Beautiful/Anonymous into an Avatar podcast, Geth finally makes good on his word and talks to callers about bending, Zuko, Uncle Iroh, family bonding, and uh . . . a dog who isn't really a dog? Maybe? (Sorry, I still don't really know what the show is about - Andrea) and why this cartoon from 20 years ago still matters so much to so many people today. Happy birthday, Geth!

Existential Psychologist

A paramedic calls in this week, and he and Gethard bond fast over the real deal world of first response. This caller is operating at a pretty intense level, working in roles that require very specific skill sets. He and Geth get into the ins and outs of the job, ambulance hierarchy, and whether there's real beef between paramedics, EMTs, and everybody else on the scene. Plus, the caller talks about growing up around addiction and instability, doing his own mental health work, and how all of it shaped the way he shows up for people in crisis.

Two Years, Five Jobs

A caller from South Jersey (Editor's Note: 856 4EVER) tells Gethard what it was like being more than six feet tall by age 10 and growing up as, by far, the tallest girl in school while still being the "runt" in a very tall family. She also fills Geth in on the rollercoaster process of adoption, tells us why making bad art matters just as much as making good art, and shares some very Jersey stories along the way.
