Hello, Stranger
By Andrew Riis
Is it possible to connect with anybody at all and have a conversation that enriches our lives?
I’m Andrew Riis and welcome to the experiment.
I believe there is depth, beauty and inspiration inside everyone when we take the time to connect. This podcast does just that.
Each episode is a conversation with someone that is or used to be a stranger. Perhaps we don’t need scholars or celebrities to create a meaningful podcast... Maybe some of the best stories are tucked away, folded into the pockets of random passers-by, of people who may have just never been given a space to tell their story.
