Probably the best thing you can do is just listen to him if he opens up about it. If you start telling him about other people's experiences he may feel like you're minimizing his own experience. But if he opens up to you about it, asking him some follow up questions could be a good thing though. One of the most difficult things about stuttering is that we often feel shame and embarrassment. And a lot of that stems from never talking about it.
