Chris Gethard
About this episode

How do you become successful in comedy? How do you know when you've made it? In a return to form for Beautiful Anonymous, Gethard chats with an aspiring stand-up comedian about getting out of her own way and making art, even if that means embracing her creepy, pervy side.


This episode is brought to you by Mack Weldon (www.mackweldon.com code: BEAUTIFUL) and Thomas' English Muffins.
