Earlier this month, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy issued a warning about a new epidemic facing Americans, an epidemic of loneliness and isolation. 

So if loneliness is an epidemic, what’s the cure? On this edition of KCBS In Depth we hear advice from one author that is simple but not necessarily easy to follow: hang out more.  

Guests: 

• Sheila Liming, professor who teaches writing and literature, Champlain College | author, “Hanging Out: The Radical Power of Killing Time”
• Jamie Snedden, cofounder, Groundfloor

Host: Keith Menconi
