Episode 2290

Welcome to the show, everyone! Today we’re going to Saskatoon, Canada. Have you ever been? I have! Just once, though. Anyway, our caller Amias has an idea for a social network that connects senior citizens with volunteer "grandchildren" for companionship, which is a thoughtful and timely idea. I'm looking forward to hearing how they plan to make this platform successful and overcome any obstacles along the way. Let’s see what Amias has to say...
"Hello, my name is Amias, and I'm calling from Saskatoon, Canada. I'm interested in starting a social network that connects senior citizens with volunteer "grandchildren" for companionship. Having seen firsthand the loneliness that can come with old age, I believe this service could make a real difference in people's lives. However, how do you attract both seniors and volunteers to the platform, and what are some potential challenges I may face? I’m thinking in particular of online safety, but I suppose it could be anything."
