Ep 246 - How to Talk to Strangers (with Kio Stark)
b'
My mother told me not to talk to strangers. It turns out that it\'s not great advice for an adult. More talking with people outside of our circles leads us to better places. Kio Stark is the author of When Strangers Meet. She challenged herself and she challenges us to expand our circles and defy that advice we got as kids.
\\nKio Stark is the author of When Strangers Meet, the novel Follow Me Down and the independent learning handbook Don\\u2019t Go Back to School. She writes, consults, teaches, and speaks around the world about stranger interactions, independent learning, and how people relate to technology. In other lives, Kio has worked in journalism, interactive advertising, community research, and game design. She has taught about stranger interactions and intimacy and technology and how we mistake technology for people at NYU\\u2019s Interactive Telecommunications Program.
