He's a 1 in a million type of dude!! He probably had to go through a lot to become who he is! This smooth transition of character, more than likely, took years to build!

Read The Game by Neil Strauss. Brand interviewed him in 2006 just after the publication of his book. Compare that interview to how he was in this interview, 6 years later. Knowledge translated into the real world, modified to your persona, will be a good place to start.

[@maddyharvey7414]

Thank you for showing the difference between being charming and being creepy! A lot of men on Russell Brand videos claim that he’s successful with flirting because of his money it looks (ultimately calling women shallow) but that isn’t really true. Obviously he’s good looking which helps, but he also has a very intuitive way of flirting VERY boldly and sexually but not crossing the line. He pulls back and knows the limits. Unfortunately some men haven’t grasped this fine balance; I think these kind of videos can help those men! Women WANT to feel desired, but not in a way where we feel like an object or cornered.

[@mothercoconuts2422]

Instead of breaking down this interview and Russell's body language, watch a video Russell put our himself entitled "How I Became Confident ". My assumption is that you're only interested in picking up "chicks" (who even uses that term anymore?), or hooking up, scores, etc. In Russell's own words, "People need to be able to connect with something that is essential and beautiful and valuable and true." YOUR takeaway is seeing it as defensive, that he doesn't give a fuck, he owns the room, the people, etc. Women respond so well to him because he's honest and open and genuine. Of course his body language is relaxed, because he's not TRYING to get in the ladys' pants. He doesn't have to try. He keeps improving himself. Body AND mind. Yoga, what eats, connecting with other people, male and female, of all ages, conversant on a myriad of subjects. THAT'S what's interesting, and0 that's a big part of what draws them in too. Get off your phone, get off the sleek leather, I-am-a-coiled bachelor sofa and go out and talk to some women. Be yourself, but be your better self...or try as hard as you can. Let your guard down. Be funny. Be self-deprecating. And erase two words from your vocab right now: "Alpha" and "Game". I sincerely hope you find something bettter than what you think you want.

This guy Russell is a master body language reader, he's definitely well versed in that subject, I read a book on body language from the early 90s that said when a woman is attracted to a man she would play with objects in her hand suggesting something, that's why Russel said "what does that mean right there what's the subcontext of that" that woman literally left her seat wet her eyes were lusting heavy.

[@constantinepericleous7240]

@@DarwinianDetonator It’s easy to say we’d all act like this guy if we were in this situation with his status, however if you watched the full video it’s explained how many guys would mess up in this interaction and why Russell is so good. For all I know, you’re an incredibly confident individual who’s an excellent conversationalist so you very well could do what Russell is doing here, but most guys can’t and it’s not because of the looks, status, money, it’s all about game.

[@mysticflyer2403]

For me; The main body language 'tell' was right at the start when the lady in blue started grooming by touching her hair, he simply escalated, subtly done with wit and charm. How many of us try to push to soon here, me included. Great breakdown, I have watched this a few times admiring the master at work but I did not see the other interactions, thanks I have learned something to be aware of in future.

[@joanmanning198]

Mystic Flyer, I think it's important to determine whether the hair touching is grooming or a nervous response to being uncomfortable. Many people will fidget when they are ill at ease. In this instance, the host looked extremely uncomfortable and tried to calm herself by taking a sip of water, and then moving away from him. I am amazed by the number of people commenting here who missed the look of extreme discomfort on her face. She should have done her homework so she would have been prepared for his behavior as he is know for being overtly sexual. Had she known, she might have been able to respond better. I think she would have approached him differently.

[@mysticflyer2403]

@@joanmanning198 you are right she was discomforted and in that context her grooming was more about getting herself together. Thank you for your insight 👍

I don't think that can be explained in a video. Russell Brand is definitely one of a kind. But aside from that, improving your inner game is a process

[@beckylove9874]

I don't know why this came up on my feed, but I very much agree with this guy's analysis, also as a two times pageant winner, which has no real significance but that i've had experience of being chatted up by quite a few men - I have always been for Russell's way of seduction, I find him utterly enchanting - it's the mix of confidence without arrogance that really makes us, as women, really go crazy, this is something men from Essex, (where Russell is from) have a smooth way of bringing into effect, it's a cheeky, non-threatening way of being that mixes Alpha male, take-charge with a more lighter, sensitive touch, it's just magic.

[@ti4410]

Tremendous breakdown

[@AristocrateOlly]

That game was craaazy o.m.g goat

[@jarredjenkins8054]

I feel like the majority of the sub context was him defending his qualifications to write this book, and they kept trying to subtly knock him down and box him in as a "quirky and strange actor" who can't write serious material. I think that the flirting was actually natural and Russel didn't care to "seduce" anyone he wanted to sell his book and the sexual tension is a happenstance of confidence and intelligence. So get your life in order and the prizes will follow.

Frame control

[@unlistedchannel001]

This man

[@zonthisv4915]

The woman ‘barely being able to talk’ is not (/just) a sign of ‘major attraction’. Brand is in total control, yes. Naturally leading (which is not aggressively wanting to dominate, the opposite) in general is attractive to most women, yes. But the giggling and smiling and being flustered, trouble regaining oneself, is also very typical for women whose personal space has been invaded. Culturally it is difficult for women to know their boundaries, hold them, communicate them, and claim their own space. Women are raised to be ‘good girls’. Most adult women still ARE those ‘good girls’. Women are predisposed, combined with empathy and sympathy, to respond in a manner that doesn’t dismiss the other (guy) while still trying to make it stop. Dismissing could turn into either hard rejection, (verbal and / or passive) aggression or even violence after all, especially in a ‘flirting’ situation. Compare it with a guy physically tickling. The involuntary bodily response is laughing but also squirming and pulling away from it, which a lot of guys take as ‘It’s working’ so they continue, while the girl at the same time is yelling ‘No, stop!’ Guy: ‘But you’re laughing’. Notice how the woman in the orange doesn’t respond in the same way as the woman in blue. The woman in orange finds Brand charming, he doesn’t try to get her on her back, because he FEELS that won’t work. She communicates that she has her own space, for example by making a joke herself or asking him to give a 30sec preview. Brand doesn’t try with her because there it’s not gonna work in the same way. The woman in orange gets called being ‘bitchy towards him’ in the beginning. Not being a ‘good girl’ = ‘bitchy’. It’s misogynistic.

[@cefnonn]

great video, very interesting indeed. Is this what linguists call "transactional analysis"?

[@preparedsurvivalist2245]

Well, first of all he's a comedian and celebrity. He's also naturally sarcastic. What happens often times when you use sarcasm is the whole conversation can become sarcastic, and sometimes very negative, as everyone tries to show they can be more sarcastic or meaner than the other. If you don't reel it back with humor and lightheartedness then it can get ugly. Russell is calibrated enough to know that these anchors were heading in a confrontational and unfunny direction so he led the conversation back with his jokes, which basically were sexual in nature because that's his style of edgy comedy. The girl wasn't blushing because she was head over heals for him, rather I'm pretty sure she was nervous that his sexual comments were pushing the limits of the TV standards for their show.

I share birthdays with this guy. Ironically also understand his style and methods. He knows he's attractive (so that gives him tremendous leverage), plus he's charismatic, well spoken, well dressed, probably smells like a million dollars and has an intentional intensity that kinda spell binds when he's making direct eye contact. He doesn't pour it on too much, but just enough to maintain control of the energy. It's really his raw sexual energy that most women are intrigued with. I believe he's married with kids nonetheless.
