Does anyone here remember Conversation Cafe's?

They took off in the early 2000s when "The decider" was president.
I wonder if they would be helpful in the Trump era?

I started a group in Yakima and met some good people. 15-16 years later, I'm in another town, we have an insane President not just a "decider". Maybe conversation cafe's need a comeback. Talking face to face is so much more personal and meaningful.
