“Every stranger has a story.” This is what Hunter Prosper realized when he began posting man-on-the-street interviews with real-life strangers to his social media accounts. Hunter’s genuine connection with strangers and emotional interview moments quickly captured viewers' hearts across multiple platforms and a New York Times Best Selling book. Now, Hunter is expanding his social media series into a new weekly video and audio podcast, Stories from a Stranger, featuring portraits of multiple strangers connected by themes of love, loss, regret, inspiration, illness, family connections, and more. In each episode, Hunter brings his innate warmth, curiosity, and charm, interviewing people from all walks of life and sharing anonymously submitted confessions. Interviews start with a question and then grow in unexpected ways as strangers open up and share their most defining moments. From the deaths of loved ones to using their most painful moments as inspiration to finding their greatest loves, no subject is off-limits. Their stories are raw, intimate, and bursting with humanity. Right now, it is easy to feel like the world is irrevocably divided. Stories from a Stranger is a warm reminder that we are all human and more connected than we realize. It’s an invitation to empathy. Every stranger has a story. Let’s start listening. New episodes every Monday on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

I can’t believe I’m only just now stumbling upon this podcast. This is my new dream job! Everything is so beautifully and thoughtfully done here - the stories, the questions, the pure intentions for connection from Hunter… imagine what our world might look like if this was some form of required listening. 🫶
The host is warm and able to create a safe space for his guests. I’m cheering each of these guests on - I feel like I’ve met new friends.
So grateful I found this gem. I needed to hear these stories, nice to remember we are all in this one life and hearing their stories drives that home. We all are living Life. I hope there are many more to come.
These are absolutely beautiful stories. We might all be strangers in this world, but we all have our own hardships. Hunter, you are a gem! You approach the sensitive questions delicately and respectfully! Amazing work!
