Connecting Greeks Highlight Reel

Connecting Greeks is a light-hearted streaming, video, and podcast show meant to unite and connect Greeks from all around the world. We love our Hellenic culture, and we use that as the basis to entertain, unite, enhance, and promote both the culture and its' people. We are made up of three friends: Angelo Tsarouchas, Ari Kalogeropoulos, and Fotios Stamos.

Just describing Dean doesn't do him justice, so watch/listen to our podcast, watch some of the multiple docuseries on him, and and then read his super interesting books to get a better idea of who this "superhuman" truly is!
