Hello to everybody who doesn't know the correct pronunciation of histories.

It's beautiful and honest. One hour, one phone call. No names, no holds barred.

Hi everybody, Chris Gatherer here. Welcome to a new episode of Beautiful Anonymous.

First things first apologies to the people of North Carolina. For months I've been plugging that our first Beautiful Anonymous show is back.

It would be in Durham and Asheville and I was so bummed. I did some stand-up shows in Florida.

First weekend back on the tour and then right after that, not even me. I was the one out on tour you'd think I would have been the one who caught COVID.

Somebody else in my household did. So I had to stay home because you can't be out there spreading things around and when you have a toddler and also COVID in the house that means you have to put in you know,

quite dupe all the work as usual as a parent to make sure that your house doesn't descend into a Lord of the Flies like garbage pit where a toddler is in control.

Anyway, those shows will be rescheduled soon. Got shows coming up this week in Pittsburgh and Arbor and Grand Rapids. I'm really hoping they happen. Keep your eye on my social media.

And I'm hoping everybody's happy and healthy and safe and that we're in the clear to get out there and have some fun and do some shows.

Anyway, we've had some real great episodes recently. I have seen in the Facebook group and on Twitter people going, Chris, the shows on the hot street lately and I am inclined to agree.

The callers have been stepping up. They have been great. I've always felt that I feel like the hot if I'm going to be honest, I know you guys know me. I'm not a cocky guy. I think the hot streak for this show is 2016 to present day man.

I know what people mean. I've been very happy with the episodes recently. This one continues that last week's episode of course was the caller in a mixed orientation marriage explaining what it was like to find out about her husband's attraction to men and how they were finding when to navigate that and stay within their marriage.

And it was gripping and something that I feel like probably happens more than we know but people don't talk about so thanks to the call for opening up.

This one is a little lighter than that. Call us from Portugal and we spend a lot of time talking about Portugal and what to expect from the people of Portugal when you visit and things to be proud about in regards to being Portuguese.

And then because this is beautiful anonymous we also have a just stunning stretch about it's father realizing.

You know one of the things I've come to really understand it myself. You learn things about your children in this case his son and it starts to make him go oh there might be some things I need to figure out about myself because I see myself in that.

It's really interesting it's really interesting look towards the end about sons and fathers and him looking at himself as a father and the son.

And really interesting stuff I think you're going to like it enjoy.

Thank you for calling beautiful anonymous a beeping noise will indicate when you are on the show with the host.

Hello hello hi.

How's it going? Oh wow I'm in it through and it's going great now that I'm talking to you how are you.
