  1. Sad to say ‘ if you was an African American this would never happen’ people don’t open up their doors to young black kids !! Let alone help them !! So my opinion it would only happen if you were white !! That’s the truth about America !! The whole 1:30 min and he didn’t run into not one black person 👀 did you notice that !! How do you only see and ask white peoples for help !! Not one African American in this !! That’s funny 😮

  2. Great story. I don’t think it would have gone as well if you were a black guy. You probably would have spent a lot of time dealing with the po-po, and there’s no way you’d be napping in a café. All of it would be different.

  3. I was inspired to look for my own craigslist adventure after watching this, but all I found were hundreds of bot posts proclaiming "$100/ARTICLE WRITER NEEDED [REMOTE]" and people selling their used mattresses. Uhhh… no thanks. 😅

  4. Going with only someone to film the journey and having people be so great is really inspiring. I think people are just the worst too much of the time, but I needed to see this today. Thanks, friend ❤️

  5. I haven't been moved by watching something in a long time, what a humbling fantastic experience 👏. I'm an isolator. It just goes to show you that we need each other. I think the person that struck me the most was the wonderful lady that was a former actress. You could tell she was just so lonely and really was reaching out for some human contact.

  6. How many homeless people are out there maybe they should get a film crew and Craigslist and problem solved the solution to the homeless in western civilization maybe around the 🌎

  7. So beautifully inspiring. Thank you Joe, for documenting the kindness of humanity. That said, I can't help but wonder if the experience of a young single female doing this would harness the same results of non exploitive kindness.

  8. I fully enjoy this young man's adventures. In a world of today and all the troubles it's shows you there are still nice people out there who do really care. I was always earned about Craigslist scammers but now i tbink I take a peek now snd then. Great job.

  9. He says no contact with anyone he knows and only contact with people he meets on Craigslist, 5 min in and he tells his people that if they want to talk to him just post something on Craigslist. Smh
