Deep Conversations with Strangers
It’s no time for small talk. This is a podcast about turning strangers into neighbors through deep conversations in an increasingly diverse Waterloo region.
Kitchener resident Gregory Bisch will meet with “strangers” from the Region who have life experiences across various social, economic, cultural, and ideological backgrounds.
His goal is to host deep conversations rich with insights and perspectives—while facing his own lifetime anxieties around making close connections.
A trained journalist, Greg gained a love for interviewing and hearing people’s stories as a young reporter and has carried that passion throughout his different careers.
