Annie–rose Strasser: Would you rather have your hairline one inch from your eyebrow
or your gums start a centimeter from the bottom of your teeth?
My name is Annie Rose Strasser,
and I'm the executive producer of Opinion Audio,
which means that I listen basically all day
to other people's conversations.
And I like to think about
starting good conversations in my personal life, too.
So we are headed into holiday party season
when you have to find something new
to talk about with the person you talk to at work every day —
[CHATTER]
or you have to see family who you haven't seen in a long time
and you're like, oh god, again,
or the worst —
when you have people who don't know each other
who you are the connecting point between,
and you have to figure out a way
to make all of them talk to each other.
All difficult situations
