Talking to Strangers with Comedian Chris Gethard (Part Two)

Published: July 19, 2021, 7 a.m.

(Make sure you listen to part one first!) Today, Chris shares his experience becoming a sudden villain in the fringe conspiratorial zeitgeist, and then we move gracefully on to sharing the value we have found in talking to strangers, him as a podcaster who has conversations on an anonymous hotline, and myself as a former hitchhiker. Chris hosts the podcast Beautiful Stories From Anonymous People, stars in a new stand-up special Half My Life, and is the author of Weird New York.\n\nWatch Chris Gethard: Half my Life \n Listen to Beautiful Stories from Anonymous People \n \n Become a Patron to get access to Chelsey's other podcast Walk with Me\xa0\n\nAmerican Hysteria is written, produced, and hosted by Chelsey Weber-Smith\nSound design by Clear Commo Studios\nProduced by Miranda Zickler\n\nFollow American Hysteria on social media: Twitter: @AmerHysteria\nInstagram: @AmericanHysteriaPodcast\nFind our merch at americanhysteria.com\nLearn more about your ad choices.
