A discussion with Chris Gethard, the creator behind Beautiful Stories from Anonymous People, or Beautiful/Anonymous for short. The premise of the podcast is this: 1 phone call. 1 hour. No names. No holds barred. Every week, Chris opens the phone line to one anonymous caller, and he can’t hang up first, no matter what. And the result is truly the name of the podcast: beautiful stories from anonymous people!
