Strangers You Know

Get out of your own head and see the world from the perspective of a complete stranger. These "Honest, Vulnerable, and Bold conversations" (TM) help intellectually curious individuals escape the echo chambers of their own social media algorithms. Broaden your understanding of key topics from people who don't look, think, or act like you.

Topics include: trauma, racism, patriarchy, faith crisis, shifting worldviews, deconstructing religion, LGBTQ+ issues, relationships, all range of emotions.

Join host Brian Acord as we meet wonderful humans with wildly different backgrounds - sharing meaningful aspects of their lives that all seem deeply familiar. Connecting the world through shared experiences and stories could make everyone Strangers You Know.
