The Social and Psychological Benefits of Talking to Strangers

When was the last time you chatted up a stranger? We already live in a society where we barely acknowledge one another on the street, and we selectively choose our friends online. In Joe Keohane's new book 'The Power of Strangers,' he talks about our fear of strangers, our quick decisions to judge them, and as a result, why we may be missing out on the social and psychological benefits. In my quick 'breadcrumb' podcast, I share a quick story of meeting Helen, and talk about my 5 reasons for chatting it up with strangers!
