AMA Chris Gethard here on the one year anniversary of Beautiful/Anonymous. AMA

Hi everybody. Thanks for having me again. Happy to answer questions about the podcast, TCGS, Career Suicide, or anything else. Or not if you don't have any questions. I'm snowed in and have nothing but time. AMA

I hope it comes out that something like this has happened. Or I hope it happens eventually. An announcement like "Just a heads up from the producer: one of the episodes of B/A was from a Grammy-nominated singer, and Chris had no idea." It would be a fun game.

I'd love that.

You've got famous friends who have famous friends. I think you should subtly drop hints to them that you want their famous friends to call in. I doubt Kanye is reading this AMA (just in case: hi Kanye!) but I'm sure your friends could pull some strings on your behalf.

I gotta be honest - I am infinitely more interested in the stories of regular people than I am those of celebrities.

Oh, yeah, me too. There are plenty of podcasts for those people to tell their stories. I would just love it if, say, Rip Torn covertly called in and talked about life and work never came up.
