2026 New Year's Resolutions

A Really F**ked Up Time to Be an Immigrant in the U.S.

Home on a snow day, a Canadian caller talks with Gethard about parenting, mental health, and dealing with a difficult change in her life. Along the way, they get into Star Wars, Italian brainrot, and whether or not Newfoundland is the New Jersey of Canada. Plus, our caller tells some stories that prove what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, until you share it on Beautiful Anonymous.

What's After Happening Now?

This week's caller is in the middle of a major life pivot, leaving a successful career as a college athletic trainer to become a Montana game warden. He and Gethard talk about the pressure to chase achievement for the wrong reasons and what it means to realize you built a life you never actually chose. They also get into the ethics of hunting, some wild ride-along stories, and we get an update on the caller's dad, our friend the timber faller from episode 355.

Athletic Trainer Turned Montana Game Warden

This week's caller had the neighbor from hell. She shares that story with Gethard, recounts some recent travel adventures, and then opens up about a major life change happening right now. It's an open and honest call with someone who's determined not to be defined by the heavy stuff.

Champagne Problems

Gethard talks with a movie studio security guard calling in mid-shift. They get into local clown drama with surprising real-world stakes, the importance of keeping your dreams alive no matter what your day job is, and what happens when Spielberg catches you with your proverbial pants down. Plus, Geth's favorite TV appearance: Noches con Platanito.

What It's Like When Your Partner Dies

A grassroots journalist calling in mid-haircut connects with Gethard over a shared love for community media. Together, they break down why public access matters now more than ever: how local TV and community-powered news can connect neighbors, build trust where traditional media has fallen short and, most importantly, help people tell their own stories. They swap favorite public access oddities (including a cat-costume cuddle show) and Geth shares how his own public access days somehow ended up tied to a Supreme Court case.

Public Access Forever

This week's caller has dedicated her life to understanding hoarding disorder. Years ago, she married someone whose relationship with collecting changed the course of her own life. Now she's on a mission to educate others and replace stigma with compassion. She and Gethard get into what hoarding really looks like, the reasons people find it hard to let go, and how shows like Hoarders have turned personal struggle into public spectacle.

Hoarding Disorder Expert

A caller checks in from a Costco parking lot to mark one year sober after 25 years of blackout drinking. He talks about kicking opioids, rebuilding his life, and what it's like to actually remember things again. He and Geth get into punk shows, lost friends, and how addiction doesn't always look the way people think it does.
 
 Plus, Dog Talk makes a rare appearance from behind the paywall.

Quit Opiates, Alcohol, and Cats

This week's caller is a somewhat unconventional podcast fan. He loves Beautiful/Anonymous even though he's never technically heard an episode. Hmmm. Mysterious. He shares his unique experience with the medium, his outlook on life, and his best party tricks.
