My guest today is Joe Keohane. He is a journalist who has worked at or written for publications such as GQ and Esquire on many topics like politics, travel, social sciences and business. His book The Power of Strangers, digs deep into why we don’t talk to strangers, why we should, and how we can—drawing on academic studies, books, and interviews.

Expect to Learn:

-      How COVID affected our interactions

-      How we evolved to become such social creatures

-      Why a lot of us actively avoid human interactions

-      What the best ways are to become better at making meaningful conversations with people

And a whole lot more
