Please work on letting your guests finish talking before interrupting them, because then you can have them side track into something else when they weren’t even done with the previous one; Every word from this man is very worth hearing, then discussing after. You could see at one point he even started to get frustrated. Robert Greene is a special person of our generation, and you should’ve listened to him more attentively, and from a more open state of mind to truly understand what he’s saying. All in all, great talk

I figured out pretty early that I don't like being told what to do and that I'm obsessive compulsive. So I sat down and figured I love to clean. I'm most at peace then. So I am a self employed housekeeper for 23 years and I still love it. Don't under estimate a low stress life.

[@littleripper312]

Under-rated occupation for sure. I loved working as a cleaner. People looked down on me but it was low stress and paid well enough. What's nice about being self employed is if you get a bad client you can drop them. When you work for someone you're stuck dealing with abusive people.

Just an advice you should listen more when you are interviewing someone. It was overall good is just the guest got interrupted super often and by this “I think” is just nice to see everything flow and let the other person finish their idea. Regards!

Who is the interviewee here I’m confuse is it the talking parrot

[@mbell]

It would be helpful to tone down the strong stances and deep personal opinions when talking to a guest as the majority of the conversation felt more like a confrontation. Perhaps approach the future guests with questions that stem from innocent curiosity and active listening of the deeper meaning of their message they are trying to convey in the moment to understand its undertone. Taking things less personally could help to lessen the interruptions / constant need of rebuttals coming from personal frustration and defensiveness to truly get the guest to fully open up and to allow them to develop the subject of what they’ve been invited to discuss. In this podcast, you can gradually feel (see and hear) Robert Greene loosing hope of his message being truly understood. Great co-host to have alongside to lighten up the conversation and to move it forward.

My Dad always encouraged my musical compositional gifts by saying "Son I believe music has the power to heal and educate and could be the mythical Fountain of Youth"❤

[@tomfon71]

I loved this episode. 2 things stood out for me. One was the part when he said if you are interacting ( for dating ) and the other person is not interested to move on to the next one. I am incredibly shy and when I was younger if someone I talked to in a bar was not interested I took it personally and would be devastated resulting in me leaving the bar and go home crying thinking something was wrong with me. I would see others go to almost everyone in the bar until someone clicked with them and I judged that person for being desperate.... The other was around the 1:35 mark towards the end about how we are all unique with our DNA and we know as young children what were primal inclinations - impulse voices. I immediately thought of the Pink Floyd song Comfortably Numb. The lyrics: When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse Out of the corner of my eye I turned to look, but it was gone I cannot put my finger on it now The child is grown, the dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb.

And as a neurospicy person, I am very much on the "do what your good at not what your passionate about" because with my ADHD, the moment my passion is attached to obligation, the passion dies and it becomes an obligation. My passions are side hustles, but of it was how I supported my family, I wouldn't love it anymore.

i never thought about it quite that way, that's a very good point... i can love so many new hobbies

[@whitneyr.846]

@@beach_lion oh I am a collector of hobbies for sure. And I do make some money from them, but it's not my living, and if I burn out and need a break, I can step away for a little bit to reheat that passion. If it was my income and I couldn't step away, it would then be just another job. I'm very crafty and artistic.. but I also am good at seeing relationships between things and patterns, and so I work in medical device compliance as my income. I'm not passionate about it, and I like it just fine, but I bet if it wasn't reliant on it for survival, I would probably love it then lol.

[@jwb52z9]

I object to the idea that no one is above the insanity that is the power dynamic.

[@amandab5222]

Me too. He missed that a lot of people just want personal power and freedom to escape power dynamics.

[@jackdispennett744]

I agree with you to an extent, and though I’ve not read his works, let me hazard a guess as to where he’s coming from. Whenever you get human beings together, hierarchies naturally form. Just watch children play-some are more directive of the play and others are more go-with-the-flow and OK with doing whatever everyone else is doing. There are some relationships in which the power gradient is much more obvious. For example, I’m a preschool teacher. The power gradient between me and my students is pretty steep, much steeper than that between a high school teacher and a student, who can at least argue her case more cogently if a teacher is being unfair. Historically men have had more power in romantic relationships, since they held more economic power and since the woman was the one who would get pregnant and be dependent on him financially. I think his point might be that power dynamics being what they are, you’re never going to completely level the playing field-one person is going to be more dominant and another less dominant. So the point is to be aware of the power you have in relationships and to use that power for the good of the other person, to build up their autonomy, etc. Good parents and teachers do this all the time. I think something like this might be what he’s getting at.

[@LINDAOZAG]

Thank you for going back to school, Doctor Bialik!!!!!!!! You have so much to offer to the real world. :)

Medically speaking, over 35 is a geriatric pregnancy. We can get pregnant after 35, but there is increased risk to both fetus & pregnant person.

[@ImazABoss]

And oh boy lemme tell ya... My geriatric (and last) pregnancy earned the right to be labeled as such lol.

[@byDEVITA]

Pregnant person? How about just a WOMAN?

[@whitneyr.846]

@byDEVITA because not all people who give birth to children identify as a woman, just like not all women have the ability to carry a child.. and it takes very minimal effort on my end to accommodate someone's identity. Just because it's something I don't personally experience doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. Sorry being a kind human and acknowledging others life experiences bothers you so much.

[@inira7418]

Lol trying to disempowering women with words. People get pregnant even on their 60' Mother nature is who decides if it is geriatric or not

[@SincerelyRoch]

Would love to see a panel between Dr. Ramani Durvasula and Robert Greene. I bet a conversation with them about narcissism (alongside tools that are used by narcissists) could help viewers and followers heighten their awareness either for themselves or for others. A lot of the things he mentions in this episode are similar or even the same as what Dr. Ramani says in her interviews and content.

[@amandab5222]

Yes! I agree. And I'm glad Mayim challenged him a bit. I wasn't 'seduced' by Robert's ideas by the end of the interview. Narcissists are notoriously power hungry. If his work is endorsed by the likes of Kanye and Jay Z, that throws up more red flags than I'm willing to hold. If he and Dr. Ramani were able to create a balanced take on how to use power without harming vulnerable people groups, I'd be more inclined to take what he said a little more seriously. But the fact that he seemed stunned and genuinely shocked 1:22:00 -1:26:00 that women feel a certain way in power dynamics shows he's playing with fire and doesn't know (or doesn't care) about the consequences. Hard pass on this guy. 🙅‍♀️

[@SincerelyRoch]

@@amandab5222 Yes, you got it right. Balance is the word. Would love to see a tennis match of perspectives, studies, and ideas.

[@kanishkabaghban8844]

Which episode of The Big Bang Theory is this?

[@abkirkbeats]

A quick thought on the point of the infection chapter. Perhaps it is not the ugly and downtrodden on the surface, for instance to feel the weight of the world means not that you are a burden to others who would cut you off. Instead, it refers to a more personal cycle of engaging with energy that goes against your "core" identity. In this case you can consider a person who finds it foolish for you to feel this weight, and tells you to just laugh at the world instead. Perhaps we already do inherently distance from/sort sort ourselves based on our intrinsic personalities and ideals.

[@adrianavazquez5862]

Gah, Mayim being so bitter and resentful towards men is painful to watch.

[@littleripper312]

I know Mayim can come off as being too negative or "feminist" in an aggressive way but she's pointing out that women have different realities to men. Like when he was talking about having fun in your 20's that's not something that most women can do if they want children. Men don't have these rigid timelines and can casually have them when they want. If a woman wants a career she doesn't have much space for having fun and exploring, she needs to be on a fairly strict timeline with her career. IVF is expensive, stressful and doesn't work for all women. I wouldn't plan your life with the assumption you'll be able to have kids 35+.

[@amandab5222]

I completely agree! I wish Mayim was more aggressive in this interview! 😅 Robert does seem out of touch in regards to women's experiences. You can't write truly good healthy books on power and seduction without empowering everyone. Another point is young women, especially teen girls, are naturally more physically, emotionally and financially vulnerable to predatory men. His work will ultimately most benefit men looking for a power trip. And if it harms women? Well not my problem because they 'should be able to see through it' 1:24:20.

[@Kitkatteg]

Many genetic defects come from old sperm as much as old eggs, yes men can be casual about having children but they exist in same timelines in the healthiest genetic material timelines. I’ve never had a single thought about Mayim being aggressive, she speaks her mind intelligently. I’ve lived in many countries and I’ve seen the ways women are valued, the Scandinavian countries are the best with social equality.
