Meet a Stranger

When was the last time you met a stranger? Humorist Matt Haze records his conversations with strangers he meets everyday and shares these unique people with you anonymously 5 minutes at a time. Why? To help you see we're way more alike than we're different. Sometimes the chats are serious, sometimes not so much. Hopefully, you'll find the courage to strike up a chat and meet a stranger!
