Why are we as humans so likely to fall into conflict with others? Why is it so hard to convince others of your viewpoint when you're in conflict with them?

In today’s episode, our guest, Dr. Jonah Berger, a Wharton School professor, best-selling author, and world-renowned expert on word of mouth, and consumer behavior…discusses with Jason and Peter, how his cutting-edge research, revealed the six types of words that can increase your impact… in every area of your life! These are the “magic words” that salespeople use to convince clients to buy, customer service reps use to increase satisfaction, lawyers use to persuade juries, and you can use, to motivate people do things they otherwise wouldn’t do! And by the end of this episode, you’ll understand how, by simply altering your words, you can increase your persuasiveness…by 30%!!! Really, no Really! IN THIS EPISODE: The 6-types of Magic Words. Why Dr. Berger decided to study the power of words. The astounding difference between “helping” and “being a helper.” Why appealing to our identity is more persuasive than asking for an action. The power of evoking certainty. Revealing the science of contagion. Using language to intentionally manipulate – is that a good or bad thing? The difference between “should” vs “could” in motivating creative problem solving. What really happens when we ask people for advice. What’s the difference between saying a movie, “was good” as opposed to “is good”?

They did it! Greens4HS2 finally swung the Green Party of England and Wales into having a viable stance on high speed rail, crucially meaning that the party can (a) hold Labour's feet to the fire properly on its rail investment plans or lack thereof and (b) it can actually comment on any transport or other investment policy at all without looking ridiculous. It has been a long time coming though, and I'm delighted to say we're joined by Emma Garnett, sustainability researcher at the University of Oxford and key figure in G4HS2 and the wider GPEW. Her and the team worked extremely hard to make this change happen, and how they made this work is instructive for all of us who want to see policy change via grassroots activism. Not to be missed!

In Berkeley Talks episode 207, bestselling author and UC Berkeley Professor Emeritus Michael Pollan discusses how he chooses his subjects, why he co-founded the UC Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics and the role of storytelling in shifting our perspective. “We're wired for story,” he told KQED's Mina Kim, whom he joined in conversation at a UC Berkeley event in May 2024. “We're a storytelling and consuming people, and we remember better and we're moved more by narrative than we are by information or argument. “The shorter journalism gets, the more it relies on argument to get any kind of heat. And I just don't think that's how you change minds. I think changing minds has to work at all levels: It has to work at the intellectual level, it has to work at the emotional level, and at even probably subliminal levels, and story does that.“When you look at great pieces of narrative journalism, people don't even realize their minds have been changed by the time they get to the end of it.”Pollan has written eight books, including The Omnivore's Dilemma (2010), about the impact of our various food choices on animal welfare and the environment, and How to Change Your Mind (2018), an exploration of the history of psychedelics and their effects on the human mind. He recently retired from UC Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism, where he taught for many years.Read the transcript and listen to the episode on Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts).Music by Blue Dot Sessions.UC Berkeley photo by Marlena Telvick.

Are you tired of stories that try to beat you over the head with a message? What if there was a better way to persuade people through storytelling? In this episode of The Brian Nichols Show, libertarian author Devon Eriksen reveals how fiction can introduce new ideas and change minds without being preachy.  Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": https://www.briannicholsshow.com/heart Devon Eriksen, author of the Prometheus Award-nominated novel "Theft of Fire", joins Brian to discuss the power of storytelling in spreading libertarian ideas. Rather than telling people what to think, Devon argues that effective fiction gives readers new things to think about, allowing them to consider possibilities they may not have encountered before. Throughout the conversation, Brian and Devon explore how empathy in storytelling helps people understand different perspectives, the importance of showing concrete visions of the future rather than abstract philosophies, and how technological advancements like the internet have democratized the publishing industry.  Devon also shares insights into the three fundamental types of stories in American politics, and how the libertarian story is uniquely focused on empowering individuals to make better choices and improve the world.

The recent encampments on campuses across North Amercia have stimulated a lot of debate about what limits there should be on protest and activism. Have these demonstrations changed any of your views about the conflict? And beyond the universities, in your personal life, how are you dealing with conversations about the Israel-Hamas conflict?

In the last week, hundreds of protests across college campuses and American cities have taken place in response to the war in Gaza. Campus life has shut down at Columbia University in NYC. The news is strewn with images of police confrontations on campuses, from Texas to California. Hundreds of demonstrators across the country have been taken into police custody. And many people now anticipate that, without a major course correction in the war in Gaza, demonstrators will converge on the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, in a replay of the infamous 1968 anti-war protests and police riots that defined that national convention. Next week, we're going to have a full episode on the war itself. Today, I want to talk about the nature of protest itself. Omar Wasow, a professor of political science at UC Berkeley, is the author of an influential paper about the history of 1960s protests. Today we talk about what made the 1960s protests different, how protests succeed, how protests backfire, and how his research applies to today.

He mentions his interest in biases, fallacies, and critical thinking. 00:05:00 - Overview of How Minds Change, David introduces his book, How Minds Change, which explores the psychology of changing opinions, persuasion, and social change. He discusses his fascination with understanding conspiratorial thinking, resistance to change, and misinformation. 00:07:59 - Advice for Discerning Pursuits, David advises against jumping into trends and suggests pursuing topics that spark a deep curiosity and obsession. He recommends exploring areas that you want to share with others and that drive you to learn more. 00:10:53 - Importance of Following an Obsession, David emphasizes the importance of following an obsession and delving deep into a topic of interest. He shares his personal experience with his blog, You Are Not So Smart, and how his curiosity led to the success of his book and podcast. 00:14:02 - The Importance of Enthusiasm and Passion in Podcasts, David discusses how he can quickly tell if a podcast is just following an algorithm, and emphasizes the importance of infectious enthusiasm and passion in keeping listeners engaged. 00:14:30 - The Need for Genuine Interest in Writing a Book, David's agent stresses the importance of genuine passion and commitment when pitching book ideas, and he agrees that he prefers to embark on a book project without all the answers, allowing the authoritative voice to emerge naturally. 00:15:17 - McRaney's Approach to Writing a Book, As a journalist, David believes that his books are better when his authoritative voice develops throughout the project, taking readers on a journey of discovery and learning alongside him. 00:18:04 - Behavioral Baking and Connecting with the Audience, David shares his experience with introducing a cookie segment on his podcast, where he would bake cookies and share them with his audience.

This applies to various disagreements and limits our understanding of ourselves and others. 00:45:25 - The Croc Experiment, The croc experiment demonstrated the surf pad concept by showing that people's prior experiences influenced how they perceived the color of crocs and socks under different lighting conditions. This bizarre experiment highlights the complexity of perception and how it varies among individuals. 00:49:36 - Minds Changing on Same-Sex Marriage, The shift in attitudes towards same-sex marriage challenged the notion that people can't change their minds. Understanding what happens in a person's brain when they no longer agree with their past beliefs became the focus of investigation. 00:51:28 - How to Change Minds, Changing minds requires moving away from a confrontational approach and towards compassionate listening.

Last week, we talked about why good help is so hard to find online, this week we're focusing on why it's so hard to share. Humans and roosters "attack" for very similar reasons, and it just so happens that the same perspective and strategies we use to avoid conflict with our flock leaders are a game-changer when advocating for them as well. https://bitchinchickens.com/2022/07/07/chicken-welfare-working-together-for-change/ Whether you've got an adult roo with "aggressive" tendencies, a young rooster that suddenly "turned mean" or you want to be prepared when 'rooberty' hits your little angel, we'd love to help you create (or repair) a loving relationship with your little yard dinosaur!

Power Words to influence people What can you say to get more of what you want Episode 173 (Shelle is based in Hamilton, Canada) This is a repeat of the popular episode #10 from Oct 2020 In this conversation with Shelle Rose Charvet we explore: Recognizing that others don't think like you do The danger of trying to dig your way out of a hole Understanding the difference between suggestion and command language How to find the people who are most likely to say yes to your offer Why you might want to people around you who think differently What's the difference between "away from " vs "towards" language The difference between value and interesting How to decode their language before you respond When do you choose between options, process, details Internal vs external modes of influence Why you might use the phrase "but it's up to you" About our guest Shelle Rose Charvet: She is an expert in Influencing and Persuasion  and author of Words that Change Minds. Shelle works with organizations around the world and now remotely to help them understand what really motivates their clients. When we recorded this interview she lived in Hamilton, Canada and spent time in Berlin. She speaks English, French, Spanish and is learning German. ----- Excerpts from this conversation with Shelle Rose Charvet: Well, the very first mistake that people make is that they unconsciously believe, like sometimes they are not aware of having this belief, they unconsciously believe that other people think the same way they do. So, the mistake they make is they use the same strategy to convince other people that they used to convince themselves of something and then they are shocked and dismayed when other people do not just leap onto their bus and go wherever they want, what is wrong with those people, do not they get it. Well, the issue is they need to get it in a way that is different than how I get it or how you get it and that is one of the very big mistakes.  So, other people do not necessarily think like me. I cannot find it hard to believe. I know, is not it? Are they weird, is there something wrong with them? Did not they go to school, did not they learn anything? Clearly they must understand me. And I am a logical person, why are not they? So, how do we overcome that challenge? I suppose, the first thing we need to recognize is that they are not necessarily trying to be difficult. They just think differently and not necessarily wrong, just differently. So, how do we overcome that challenge? So, this is what the book words that change minds is all about. We need to understand that people have different values and criteria for making decisions so what is important to me may not be important to them, like one of the ways I like to convince people is I tell them things are interesting. Well, interesting is my word for valuable and worth looking at, would not it be great if you asked somebody, well how do something is worthwhile taking a look at? So, George, let me ask you just for a minute, how do you know that something is worthwhile to take a look at. ----- ----more---- Your host is George Torok George is a specialist in executive communication skills.

Lisa Cron is no fan of how the writing world teaches writers to craft stories. She has several beefs with the standard ways novel writing is taught, including starting your project with "plotting." In this episode, Lisa offers a fresh, practical perspective on the key to writing a compelling story. Lisa has written three books on story, including Wired for Story, Story Genius, and Story or Die. She has worked in publishing at W.W. Norton, as an agent at the Angela Rinaldi Literary Agency, as a producer on shows for Showtime and Court TV, and as a story analyst for Warner Brothers and the William Morris Agency.   Great Moments in the Episode (5:06) The two things that the writing world has gotten wrong about writing stories. (7:00) Page one of the novel is the first page of the second half of the novel. (10:05) The biggest lie that the writing world tells you: "Use backstory sparingly and only when the reader needs to know something." (14:25) What are "misbeliefs" and the importance of knowing the origin story of the misbeliefs of your main character. (19:20) The art of writing is to take what is inchoate ... and put it into language. (25:35) Story structure is a byproduct of a story well told. And the story polishes the prose, not the other way around. (30:01) Story is story, whether you're writing nonfiction, a memoir, or fiction. (39:03) The mark of a writer is being able to throw stuff away.   (43:08) Words of the Episode Pluviophile -  someone who loves rain and rainy days - and the fresh smell of rain.

Is it even possible to have a genuinely open conversation that holds the potential to persuade someone to your point of view anymore? Or have we entered a “post-persuasion” state? And, if so, is there a way to change that?How to move people back into conversation, and set the table for openness and, maybe even persuasion to a different set of ideas, beliefs and actions? Our guest today, Anand Giridharadas, has been studying this very question for years. In our conversation today, Anand and I dive deeper into the politics of persuasion, dissect the underlying drivers behind division, identity politics, social reinforcement, and explore a number of specific ideas and strategies designed to help us all get back to a place of more empathy and understanding.
