It’s 9 pm on a Friday, and the vibes are loose. This week’s caller is a former teacher turned novelist-in-progress who’s found fulfillment in writing, volunteering, and caring for the true love of her life: an elderly, disabled bearded dragon named Charlie. Sure, she and Gethard also talk about volunteer paleontology, dating with autism, and how Geth ties into her broken ankle, but at the end of the day, this is a call about a bearded dragon named Charlie.

Middle of Nowhere
Like some of the show’s earliest episodes, this one’s unpredictable from the jump. Sometimes funny. Sometimes uncomfortable. Our caller shares a winding history of reckless choices, addiction, and moments from his past that don’t sit easy, even for him. Set against a backdrop of small-town life and wide-open fields, it’s a story where the line between shenanigans and serious mistakes blurs fast. No clear takeaway. Just a lot to sit with.

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.
