Brian Brushwood knows how to gain and hold attention in social media.Reaching for that brass ring causes most people to lean too far off their plastic horse on the social media merry-go-round.SPLAT! They land flat on their faces with only a few hundred views.Brian has built a YouTube channel to 1.7 million subscribers, an entirely different channel to more than 2 million subscribers, and 12 days ago he produced a 1-minute “short” that had 3.6 million views on the first day, and at the time of this writing – on Day 12 – it has climbed to 17.1 million views.And you – yes, you – could have shot that exact same video with nothing more than a cell phone.I asked Brian if I could ask him a few questions on ZOOM for the Monday Morning Memo. Here are a some of the things he shared with me:“There's a temptation, especially with YouTube, to perpetually feel like you're too late. You're never too late. I thought I was too late to start YouTube in 2006 because it had been around since 2005. It was already seeing its early superstars. And I started in 2006. And then I thought by the time Scam School came to YouTube in 2009, I thought it was too late. It wasn't too late. I thought it was too late in 2016 when we launched the Modern Rogue. It wasn't too late.”“YouTube is the dominant market now.”“Facebook is now pay-to-play. And for some messaging, that works. It's worth paying the money to get the message out there. But if you're trying to build organic fans like I am, it's not a fit.”“TikTok: there's only one star of TikTok, and that's TikTok. You can get a million views one day and the next day you'll get 800. And it's agonizing because they literally just want to lure you into their dopamine trap. Whereas YouTube is a meritocracy.”“And here's the beauty. If you think about YouTube as your personal agent… What personal agent knows your material all the way back to the very first time you ever posted anything? And also it knows the customer, your client, your prospective new best friend, their entire history of everything they've ever watched.”What can you do for me in one hour, Brian?“We can crack who you are, what you do and do not do, and craft your storytelling engine.”“Have you noticed, Roy, that on YouTube, so much of the content boils down to, ‘Can you blank with a blank?' Or ‘How to blank with a blank.' And these are transactional things. Either they trade on curiosity, or they trade on things that people are searching for. But very quickly, all you have to do is get on paper what your flavor is – that's called in fancy Hollywood talk – ‘a style guide.'”“Now, I don't want to intimidate anybody… You know what, if I did want to intimidate people, I'll say, ‘In one hour, Roy, I can give you a story bible, a style guide, I can give you a structure, a framework, a narrative storytelling. I could break down the beats of your three-act structure. We could consider the Campbellian monomyth, all those things.'”“We could get that done in an hour and technically I'd be accurate. But the way I would explain it to anybody watching this is, ‘Give me an hour and I'll teach you not how to tell a story; I'll teach you to tell all the stories, because stories are happening to you all the time. Every client that has a setback is an amazing story.'”“It is so dead simple.”“Now that doesn't mean it's easy, but it is simple. The first hour is basically everything you're going to need to know. Everything past that is reinforcement, and everything after that is refinement.”

If you love learning about cons, scams, and tricks, then this is the episode for you. Listen as Perry sits down with Brian Brushwood, someone who has made understanding and teaching scams and tricks his life's work. Brian is the creator of Scam School, Scam Nation, Hacking the System, Modern Rogue, and more. For the past 20 years, he's toured around the world teaching and demonstrating everything from side show stunts, to sleight-of-hand magic, to the intricacies of con artistry. Brian's new podcast, World's Greatest Con is a deep-dive into the stories and tactics behind the most intricate and interesting cons imaginable. In season 1, he told the story of Operation Mincemeat, a WWII plot devised by Ian Fleming (creator of James Bond) to trick none other than Adolf Hitler. Season 2 covers five different cons all related to the game show industry… it's both entertaining and riveting in some very unexpected ways.

That includes Mississippi where toll of the current recession has Mississippians filing for unemployment benefits in record numbers. But lately, some employed Mississippians are unknowingly receiving deposits in their bank accounts, or debit cards in their mailboxes. They are the targets of fraudsters, looking to take advantage of the billions of relief dollars pumped into employment security offices across the nation. Shad White is the State Auditor of Mississippi. He tells our Michael Guidry how these scamming rings operate, and what Mississippians need to know if they are targeted.Segment 3:The Mississippi Department of Education is providing reopening options for school districts to consider as eyes turn toward the next school year.

To say Brian is a cool guy is an understatement. He's pretty down to earth for being a hotshot podcast and YouTube celebrity, you know? We talked about so many things in tonight's podcast that... well, I just can't really list them all because we zipped along. Someone must have put something in our drinks to make us zip through these topics. Justin did provide some free dental advice in a rapid fire dental consultation. And it looks like there's something brewing for next June in South Dakota. So, stay tuned, friends. Here's a little, official, biography on Brian: Host of Scam School for Discovery & Hacking The System for NatGeo. Two Billboard #1 comedy albums. Eats fire. Sticks nails in eyes. Jackass and...pro dancer? That's all you really need. Check him out. His twitter handle is @shwood and his website is, you guessed it, http://www.shwood.com./ Thank you for being on the show, Brian! I have a feeling we will be seeing you again sometime soon... perhaps... in studio next year? Cheers!
