EPISODE 8 - How To Start Conversations with Strangers

[JulyDiaz 2797]

Stephen and James share their strategies for talking to strangers. They’ve tried everything, from photographing people’s tattoos to offering them bags of pennies, with mixed results.

"The zinc lobby has been really good at fomenting pro-penny sentiment" is not a sentence I expected to hear today, or any other day for that matter. Damn you, Big Zinc!

Good show! I'm curious to know if you have tips on how to get a conversation going with acquaintances. Oddly enough, I find it pretty easy to get a conversation going with strangers because I'm discovering them for the first time. It's much harder for me to make meaningful conversation with someone I've seen one or two times and already know a bit about, like where they're from (in which case, your suggestion isn't applicable).

 

Thank you,

Ahmed
