Customer Reviews
Fun Premise and Interesting Guests
I listen to quite a few podcasts, and I haven’t listened to another one quite like Not Quite Strangers. The host, Valerie Hope, brings together 2 people who don’t know each other and leads a conversation. No 2 sessions are the same and part of the fun is that you never know exactly where the conversation will go, yet somehow it is always fun.
