Beautiful Stories From Anonymous People

The Squishy Squid

Six weeks ago, Gethard talked to a guy who was calling from the hospital while he waited for his wife to give birth to their first child. This week, by some act of fate, she got through herself. Our caller catches Geth up on life as a new mom, and then the two have a real and raw conversation about mental health. She opens up about her experiences with bipolar disorder, the importance of understanding and advocating for mental health, and how she plans to handle conversations about mental health with her own child.

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.
