But Chris Voss, former FBI hostage negotiator and author of 'Never Split the Difference', joins us to dispel these myths and reveal what truly works. Real negotiation isn't about manipulation—it's about tactical empathy, trust, and understanding human nature. From high-stakes hostage crises to boardroom deals, Chris teaches the same fundamental skills: reading people accurately, defusing conflicts, and delivering difficult news effectively. Tune in as Chris exposes manipulation tactics, reveals how to spot a liar, as well as essential advice for entrepreneurs and leaders navigating complex negotiations.00:00 Chris Voss introduction02:09 Tactical empathy & bourbon launch03:27 First hostage case lessons05:08 The draw of hostage negotiation06:55 Crisis hotlines shape negotiation skills09:39 Defusing violent situations13:32 From field agent to teacher19:05 Inside Colombian kidnapping cases23:17 How kidnapping funds terror25:45 The weight of high-stakes talks27:53 Hostage skills in business deals28:18 Reading manipulation tactics30:51 Truth about hostage movies33:21 Navigating the film world35:40 Breaking down Black Swan Method38:50 Teaching entrepreneurs to negotiate41:49 Spotting the wrong deals46:53 Where new entrepreneurs stumble48:19 Trusting your gut instincts51:18 Signs someone's not telling truth55:02 Building trust in relationships59:17 Delivering difficult news1:06:31 Leading through uncertainty1:08:11 Solving team conflicts1:12:40 Using charm to win deals1:15:31 Learning from past mistakes1:20:47 Final negotiation wisdom» Escape the 9-5 & build your dream life - https://www.digitalplaybook.net/» Transform your physique - https://www.thrstapp.com/» My clothing brand, THRST - https://thrstofficial.com» Custom Bioniq supplements: https://www.bioniq.com/mikethurston • 40% off your first month of Bioniq GO • 20% off your first month of Bioniq PRO» Join ​⁠@Whoop and get your first month for free - https://join.whoop.com/mikethurston» Follow Chris«Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefbinegotiator/?hl=enBlack Swan Group: https://www.blackswanltd.com/chris-vossNever Split The Difference: https://www.blackswanltd.com/never-split-the-difference

Since this is the first sesh of 2025, I felt like we needed a little update and forecast for what's going to be coming up on the podcast.So in this sesh we're talking about a few of the changes I going to try and make to the show. I felt like it was getting a little to cannabis centric. So in an effort to bring it back to what, originally made the show fun and engaging I'm trying to add variety.This week I'm talking about a procedure that a lot of men decide to have and hopefully I can take some of the anxiety out of the situation. By telling my vasectomy story I hope that I can give dudes an accurate picture of what the procedure actually entails. With a little bit of humor I hope I can lighten the load so to speak.After talking about my D, I move on to the most notorious D in politics. That's right we are talking about Trump and his Teriff wars. I mean really we're talking about the bro-tastic nature of his and Elon Musks white house take over.Finally we finish out the show with a brief discussion about the fact that I'm starting to dabble in the stock market. None of what I say on the subject is meant to be any kind of education or information regarding the purchasing of stocks. Nor am I trying to tell anyone what to do with there money. I am simply just discussing the fact that I have started to play the stock market and there is a pot stock that seems to be taking the lead in the cannabis industry. Again, in no way am I telling you that you should invest I just thought that it would be fun to discuss and some of what is happening is quite interesting.Hope you enjoy the sesh!Don't forget to Subscribe and visit Tots420.com#comedypodcast #comedy #humor #podcast #storytellngpodcast #canadianpodcast #thoughtsoffthestem #thoughtsoffthestempodcast #spotifypodcast #funnystories #cannabispodcast #stockmarket

In this throwback episode, John and Jackie discuss how to defuse arguments within the lifestyle. They discuss how most arguments are rooted in fear of the unknown and how to find a way to work through that fear in order to communicate with your partner. Curious about an open lifestyle with your partner?…Let's explore it together :)

Does your child or teen ever lash out, shut down, or completely refuse to listen? Maybe you've tried timeouts, threats, or punishments, but they just don't work—or worse, they seem to make things even harder. Sound familiar? Here's the thing: those big emotional outbursts are NOT about being “naughty” or “willful.” There's so much more happening under the surface, in their brain and body, and that's exactly what we're diving into today. Today I'll help you understand what's *really* going on when your child is argumentative, explosive, or just plain "rude", why some of those old-school parenting tactics aren't helpful, and, most importantly, how you can use positive strategies to co-regulate with them to bring their emotions back in balance and support their behaviour. If you're ready to feel less overwhelmed and more connected to your child, you're in the right place.And as I mentioned in the episode, I created a course specifically for this topic and these challenges. It's called Defusing and Decoding Challenging Behaviour, and it covers how understanding the nervous system of your child gives you the tools you need to navigate (and even often avoid) really challenging/disruptive behaviours. One parent who took the course emailed me within minutes of finishing the course saying: "STEPH. This is by far the BEST course I have taken, I finally get why my son erupts and goes off, and I feel like I have a whole bag of tools to deal with it! Thank you so so much. I'm recommending it to all my friends!"Find the course at https://www.stephaniepinto.com/courses *** If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

The US' President-elect inherits a world different from that in his first term. Synopsis: The Straits Times' global contributor Nirmal Ghosh shines a light on Asian perspectives of global and Asian issues with expert guests. Tariffs - as a weapon to restore and rejuvenate American jobs and manufacturing -  will be back with a vengeance in Donald Trump's second term. So will competition with China, in the course of which performative support for Taiwan by hawks in Congress and Washington DC security circles may end up provoking Beijing and thus hurting Taiwan.   Yet the US' 47th President will inherit a world different from that of his first term in 2017 - one with more limits to American power. While some hawks in Washington see China as weak and advocate that the US should do everything it can to push it over the edge, realists understand the US can no longer do everything.  From the perspective of South-east Asia, it is imperative to defuse the zero-sum mentality of US-China competition. Faced with the disruptive effects of tariffs, this  region has to also find ways to go back to a kind of globalisation that works for everyone.  These are some of the challenges, and currents, that the next American President and the US' trade partners and allies must navigate and adapt to, as a new era looms in Washington DC.  In this episode of Asian Insider, Nirmal hosts Danny Quah, Professor of Economics and Dean of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore, and Robert Manning, Distinguished Fellow at the Stimson Center in Washington, DC, who is working on the think tank's Strategic Foresight and China programmes. They share their perspectives from opposite sides of the world, on the foreign policy of the Donald Trump 2.0 Administration.  Highlights (click/tap above):  2:51 Defusing the zero-sum game; what is Trump's idea of a bilateral trade deficit? 6:47 Trump inheriting a very different world now in his second term 13:17 Is there a kind of globalisation that can work for everyone? 16:34 Why Donald Trump is not shy to exercise hard power  18:02 China weak?

His colleagues described it as one of the "greatest single acts of bravery" they'd ever seen. In 2009, while deployed as part of an anti-explosives team in Kandahar, Bruno Guevremont became the only Canadian Armed Forces member to defuse a live suicide bomber. In episode two of Forgotten War, Guevremont describes the day that changed his life, the "cat-and-mouse game" between him and the Taliban during his second tour in Afghanistan, the difficulty of coming home, and how he healed from the psychological wounds that have been ignored throughout most of the history of war.

I've worked with a bunch of different sellers. Some were good. Some not so much. But one or two were truly next level.They had consistently better results. They brought in bigger deals. They closed accounts no one else could. And they just seemed to "get it" in a different way. They were switched on—you didn't need to tell them what to do. Whatever challenge you threw at them, they found a way. They seemed built just a little bit differently than other people on the team.I've always been curious about what makes those great sellers great.To help answer that question, I sat down with true superstar of the sales world, 5x President's Club winner Brian LaManna, Strategic AE at Gong.

Defusing the Wars Against Men and Culture: The Nancy Pearcey Interview Our culture is in crisis in many different ways. Depression rates are soaring, young men are finding it more difficult to find their place in this world, confusion over the value that our bodies hold is commonplace, as is the idea that morality isn't rooted in fact. In special interview with Nancy Pearcey, we discuss several of the most crucial issues that are rocking our culture today. Her books like Saving Leonardo, Total Truth, and her most recent book, The Toxic War on Masculinity, really focus on some of these most important issues that show a seismic shift in where we used to be as a culture and where we find ourselves now.

counterwill is an important developmental function, but it can be a hindrance to healthy relationship develeopment. it's important to recognize it is an instinct, albeit a frustrating one. so remember when dealing with counterwill, it's important not to ignore the rebellion but also important not to force control. instead, we should pay attention + focus on our attachment in the relationship, instead. “We may not be responsible for the way the world creates our mind, but we can learn to take responsibility for the mind with which we create our world.” - Gabor MatéIf you didn't know, Gabor Maté is truly a great educator and I aspire to communicate ideas as meaningfully and effectively as he can.

As if breaking down Grant's (mostly) cognitive distortions wasn't enough in this episode, Jay hits him with a fact about a high percentage of people don't have an inner monologue. This almost breaks Grant mentally. The comedic downward spiral and the wishful thinking that comes from the idea of not having to suffer from listening to his evil unreliable narrator is a rollercoaster of emotions, to say the least.  You may recall that in the first official episode of the season, we quickly discussed the 15 cognitive distortions and broke down the first 5 of them and how they related to us... well in this episode we break down the next 5 and how they relate to us. Mostly Grant.  Jay doesn't get out of this unscathed though. Grant doesn't seem to think that Jay is discriptive enough when it comes to sharing his emotions and he also admits that he's not happy, nor does he understand Jay's level of depression. Has Jay ever laid in a fetal position and cried when feeling depressed or is it just more of a Meh! feeling?    If you'd like to get ahold of us you can do so by emailing the show OnHiatus@MonkeyPooStudios.com Twitter: Jay The Angry Ginger @S7evendaysageek Grant @Insta_Grants2 The Show @PodcastHiatus Thank You so much for listening and supporting the show!

Today's sales strategy distinguishes successful agents from the rest: addressing the elephant in the room to defuse and dominate sales conversations. In a market saturated with agents eager to tout their achievements, Ben posits that the true differentiator lies not in a resume of accolades but in demonstrating the tangible skills that benefit sellers directly. Throughout the discussion, Ben emphasizes the importance of confronting market realities, potential challenges in the marketplace, and essentially allowing sellers to "test drive" an agent's sales capabilities. This approach not only sets an agent apart in a crowded field but also significantly increases the likelihood of securing business by directly showcasing value and competence.

In this treasure from the Papa PhD vault, I bring you my Season 1 conversation with Fiona Robinson. During our conversation, Fiona shares her insights on pushing through in graduate school and in life, and on her take on finding a fulfilling professional life outside of academia. Following a PhD in RNA Biochemistry at Cambridge University and a post-doc in developmental neurobiology/oncology at the Toronto Hospital for Sick Children, Fiona moved to Montréal and shifted careers into science communication/medical education. Currently she is a freelance medical editor, a lead volunteer in the local women's hockey community, and half an IronMan! As medical editor, Fiona is responsible for the creation, editing, production, and publication of educational materials for different organizations in the global bleeding disorders community. She conducts needs assessments to understand what resources are most needed and then works with volunteer subject matter experts from around the world and local freelancers to create the content, which she then edits and sees through production. Managing budgets and timelines, volunteers and contractors, and diverse cultural and socioeconomic contexts requires many of the "soft skills" that she developed working in research and, just as importantly, exploring non-research interests during her time in academia. What we covered in the interview: The value of finding your passion to instruct your career searchHow nurturing a rich life outside research can open doors for you later onDealing with the uncertainty of the non-academic job marketDefusing the socially awkward/standoffish academic stereotypeThe importance of tailoring your CV and of tailor-writing your cover letters to each potential employer and positionLooking around and keeping a job posting scrap-book as a way of identifying potentially fulfilling careers Leave a review on Podchaser !

Summary In this conversation, Defrowe and Khaos discuss the topic of fights in airsoft games. They explore the signs of conflict brewing during a game, strategies to diffuse tension among players, and the role of referees in handling disputes. They also discuss the use of aggressive language and taunts, the impact of specific equipment on gameplay, and the importance of field culture in preventing and resolving conflicts. Overall, they emphasize the need for a respectful and inclusive community in airsoft. Takeaways - Pay attention to signs of conflict brewing during airsoft games, such as agitated body language and escalating cheating. - Strategies to diffuse tension among players include avoiding conflict by switching teams or fighting in different parts of the map. - Airsoft fields should implement stricter penalties, such as bans, for players who engage in physical altercations. - Referees and game organizers should take an active role in preventing and resolving conflicts during games. - Creating a positive field culture and promoting respect among players is crucial in preventing and resolving conflicts in airsoft. - Clear communication and well-defined rules are essential for a positive airsoft community. - Changing rules and expectations can lead to confusion and altercations, emphasizing the need for effective communication. - Field size and logistics play a significant role in gameplay, and overcrowding can negatively impact the player experience. - Dealing with cheaters should be done through communication and involving referees, rather than resorting to violence. - Upgrading airsoft toys can enhance performance and accuracy, but stock guns can still be effective.

First up this week on the GeekWire Podcast: an inside take on developing software for the Apple Vision Pro. We talked with a longtime software developer for Apple platforms, Ken Case, co-founder and CEO of Seattle-based Omni Group, which makes productivity apps for Mac, iPhone, and iPad, and just released a version of its OmniPlan project management software for the newly launched Apple Vision Pro. Related story: Apple Vision Pro: Why one longtime software shop is jumping head-first into spatial computing Then, it's AI, politics, and a new attempt to detect and defuse deepfakes. A few weeks ago on the show, Oren Etzioni, a University of Washington computer science professor and longtime artificial intelligence specialist, hinted at a secret project in the works. This week, he unveiled nonprofit, nonpartisan technology organization, TrueMedia.org, that is developing an AI-powered tool to detect AI-generated deepfake videos, photos, and audio, aiming to combat political disinformation in the leadup to the 2024 elections. We jumped back on the line with Etzioni to get the details on the new initiatives, and discuss the pros and cons of the rapid development of new generative AI tools for democracy and society.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Brute Force Manufactured Consensus is Hiding the Crime of the Century, published by Roko on February 3, 2024 on LessWrong. People often parse information through an epistemic consensus filter. They do not ask "is this true", they ask "will others be OK with me thinking this is true". This makes them very malleable to brute force manufactured consensus; if every screen they look at says the same thing they will adopt that position because their brain interprets it as everyone in the tribe believing it. Anon, 4Chan, slightly edited Ordinary people who haven't spent years of their lives thinking about rationality and epistemology don't form beliefs by impartially tallying up evidence like a Bayesian reasoner. Whilst there is a lot of variation, my impression is that the majority of humans we share this Earth with use a completely different algorithm for vetting potential beliefs: they just believe some average of what everyone and everything around them believes, especially what they see on screens, newspapers and "respectable", "mainstream" websites. This is a great algorithm from the point of view of the individual human. If the mainstream is wrong, well, "nobody got fired for buying IBM", as they say - you won't be personally singled out for being wrong if everyone else is also wrong. If the mainstream is right, you're also right. Win-win. The problem with the "copy other people's beliefs" algorithm is that it is vulnerable to false information cascades. And when a small but powerful adversarial group controls the seed point for many people's beliefs (such as being able to control the scientific process to output chosen falsehoods), you can end up with an entire society believing an absurd falsehood that happens to be very convenient for that small, powerful adversarial subgroup. DEFUSING your concerns This is not a theoretical concern; I believe that brute-force manufactured consensus by the perpetrators is the cause of a lack of action to properly investigate and prosecute what I believe is the crime of the century: a group of scientists who I believe committed the equivalent of a modern holocaust (either deliberately or accidentally) are going to get away with it. For those who are not aware, the death toll of Covid-19 is estimated at between 19 million and 35 million. Covid-19 likely came from a known lab (Wuhan Institute of Virology), was likely created by a known group of people (Peter Daszak & friends) acting against best practices and willing to lie about their safety standards to get the job done. In my opinion this amounts morally to a crime against humanity. And the evidence keeps piling up - just this January, a freedom of information request surfaced a grant proposal dated 2018 with Daszak's name on it called Project DEFUSE, with essentially a recipe for making covid-19 at Wuhan Institute of Virology, including unique technical details like the Furin Cleavage Site and the BsmBI enzyme. Note the date - 3/27/2018. Wait, there's more. Here, Peter Daszak tells other investigators that once they get funded by DARPA, they can do this work to make the novel coronavirus bond to the human ACE2 receptor in... Wuhan, China. Wow. Remember, this is in 2018! Now, DARPA refused to fund this proposal (perhaps they thought that this kind of research was too dangerous?) but this is hardly exculpatory. Daszak et al had the plan to make covid-19 in 2018, all they needed was funding, which they may simply have gotten from somewhere else. So, Daszak & friends plan to create a novel coronavirus engineered to infect human cells with a Furin Cleavage Site in Wuhan, starting in mid-2018. Then in late 2019, a novel coronavirus that spreads rapidly through humans, that has a Furin Cleavage Site, appears in... Wuhan... thousands of miles away from the bat caves in Southern China ...

Hello, this is Robert Riggs taking you inside the crime scene tape in this episode of the True Crime Reporter® Podcast. Besides telling interesting crime stories, it is also my mission to educate. Unless you have been living under a rock, you know we live in an epidemic of violence.  school shootings, mass shootings at malls and public places, road rage murders, senseless violent acts, and, as I have reported, outlaw motorcycle gangs shooting each other in broad daylight on Interstate Highways. Some days I think the world has gone crazy. Mediator Doug Noll with Chowchilla inmates in "peace circle" photo by Susan McRae 10/2/2010 Doug Noll is here to explain the causes and offer a solution that's working in prisons. The California lawyer felt a calling in 2010 to create the Prison of Peace project at the Valley State Prison for Women in Chowchilla, California, the largest women's prison in the world.  In closing, here's my Reporter's recap and reflections. A recurring theme in my past stories has been the impact of the lockdown on people's emotions during the Covid pandemic. Plus, there's the loss of civility in American politics.  As you may know from a previous episode, I worked as a Congressional Staffer in the early 1970s, and later in the 1980s, I covered the administration of President Ronald and Congress as a reporter. Today, those institutions look like an alien from outer space.  You can't insult people and then expect them to vote for your legislation. Politics used to be the art of compromise, but now it's a blood sport. I can tell you this. Having worked on a Defense Committee with a top-secret security clearance and as a reporter covering wars and national security…our adversaries love what's happening to our Democracy, And they are chipping away at it.  Because at the end of the day, they want our wealth…our stuff. Are we just going to give it away? You've been listening to the True Crime Reporter® Podcast: Stay True. Stay Safe. And Stay Tuned for more stories from inside the crime scene tape. This is Robert Riggs Reporting. Link to Noll's Book De-Escalate
