I love that Robert is wearing that shirt . he was wearing that shirt when he had a stroke , notice the lines on the shirt where it is sewed back together,, the doctors tore that shirt to get better access. he got the shirt back and wears it as a reminder of the gift of life
It was a Stroke he had, not a heart attack. But that shirt is amazing. I love that his wife sewed it back together and now he wears it kinda like an inspiring battle scar.
Yes. Long time ago I found his books and it changed my perspective on my own inner knowing in terms of self confidence. Agree w what he says about people looking for data. Thanks Chris for having him on.
Sure, but I still think Chris could have gotten more out of Robert. I don’t care about the color of Chris’s product. Missed opportunity in my opinion. Chris really wanted to say something clever yet he couldn’t even get the name of the book out. I have definitely heard better interview with Robert.
I’ve always believed that pursuing power was something to avoid-but recently, I’ve realized it’s not about rejecting power, it’s about how we pursue it. Instead of taking from others, I’ve focused on building people up to strengthen my own foundation. Grateful for the wisdom Chris and Robert share in this conversation-it’s given me a new perspective on my path. Excited to keep learning and growing!
As we get older whether we like it or not, we're given power and authority. Some more than others, we must be humble enough to accept this and be afraid of the consequences of poorly managed authority. I think the ability to harness fear is one part, maybe the primary one, of wisdom
While listening to this, I just realized that I always spent time by myself as a young child, latchkey kid, other traumas involved… I would play with Barbies, I would wash their hair and dry it, and style it and mess it up and do it all over again. I would make a little bowl with Shampoo in it, and one with water only. I made basically a little Salon, not even knowing what I was doing or realizing that I was doing this. When I was 19 years old I decided to go to Beauty school because it sounded easy… 38 years later I am still a successful hairdresser… Super successful! My life is fun, easy and effortless, and I feel like I’ve never worked a day in my life. I’ve been able to utilize my LOTS of free time and money to do other things, investments, and passive income and such… My life is great! I always appreciate, your content! I love Robert Green as well. I’m actually reading a book of his currently …The Daily Laws. Thank you!❤
@@some.velvet.morning thank you! It’s been a journey, and I have no regrets… Because without my journey, I wouldn’t be where I’m at today. It’s pretty cool!
Thank you for LISTENING, striving to free yourself into the best you that you desire and know to be. You NEVER KNOW the impact you can have of being true to yourself. You never KNOW who you might help by sharing. Thank you for being YOU.
Im 20 minutes in and Robert's words are sinking in my soul, stirring things up - bc I currently feel like he felt those years ago - searching for purpose in life calling, feeling out of sync with those around me etc...very soulful opening convo.
Robert Greene is one of a kind. I could listen to him all day long. If anyone could list all the books he recommends to read that are his favourites I would appreciate it :) He’s one in a million so knowledgeable, interesting and humble in my opinion. Great listen.
17:05 I love how Robert Greene makes those gestures with his hand and goes ‘I don’t know if we’re being filmed’ like they’re not in a state-of-the-art set with cameras and lights all around them
I'd never heard of Roberto Calasso, thanks. I get so much from these talks, from reading tips to validation that is lacking in daily life. All the best to Robert Greene, whose 48 book has been on my reading list for a couple of years (my list is long, I am short - on time 😢)
What an interesting character Rob is. I've not read his work, but I plan to now. His willingness to highlight the realities of psychology without apology is very refreshing. Another amazing job on the visuals too, stunning.
I always enjoy anything Robert Greene talks about, seeing his content and reading his books really aids in my life. It’s always nice being reminded of things he’s said or wrote as well. I look forward to his next book.

there's a book called whispers of manifestation on borlest , and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract almost everything in life it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal
In case you couldn't catch the names of the books he recommended, they are: The ruin of Kasch by Roberto Calasso And Homo Ludens by Dutch historian Johan Huizinga
I have a film. Robert is brilliant, he is quite right about how paths in the brain change. It’s nice to end the day with this smooth voice and his kind thoughts!
Robert Green teached me to put my feelimg away and to truly learn from those around you no matter how you feel about them I dont lile that dudee at all, but he for sure teached me some valuable things
The side sections in the 48 laws of power were my favourite parts of book - The fables, parables, and stories that made great analogies made me really fascinated by the book
I remember being there when there was only 15k views. The fact that i have been blessed to see something as great as this grow and become amazing makes me feel glad that i was able to witness it.
great podcast! one of the reasons im a huge fan of Stefan Molyneux is that he provides practical philosophy especially in regards to your family and relationships.
Roberts voice gives me so much hope towards a better life. The struggles he has been through and his ability to perceive the world and the way he does is magnificent. A blessing of our time.
Great podcast. Always a pleasure to listen to R.Greene. (About masculinity- there is nothing more sexy than a strong, masculine man treating well women.)
Wow! Can't believe my favorite podcaster and favorite author are doing a podcast. Can't wait to write down everything I learn from this podcast episode!
I’ve had this idea to build an ai tool for UA-cam where if you are watching a podcast and you hear something you want to remember or save. You can have it highlight those seconds and cut it from the episode as well as transcribe it to text. I’m often times driving and hear something I want to remember and never can go back and find it or remember what episode it was from, etc. so a tool like that would be extremely helpful to me.
Chris if you’re reading this want to just tell you Your show have been getting better and better in all terms but the best part is how random but accurate questions comes out from that notes app you have We would love to see more of the process u have and bts of the setup too
Great advertising for LMNT Chris...Love the little subtle movements round the cans to advertise the different cans that kept getting replaced throughout the talk! Clever! Product placement at its best haha. Great chat too keep up the good work!
I have a book of Mr. Robert Greene and I told to my son to read it too. Chris do you have plan to write a book? I think you can write too. Me I wanna write I want to be an author too but I'm not good at grammar, I don't have lots vocabulary. If I will write the Title are " The Quotes" that transform my life. Handcherchiefs , My Great Mom etc .😊 Have lots on my mind.
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the conversation. I agree to the contribution of male role models. There seems to be a lot of confusion of what men should aspire to be. My personal opinion is that nothing can fill the role of a good father, but additional role models in public are also needed.

Thank you HABIBI ❤❤
Thank you for having me back on the podcast Chris.
Thank you for your work sir!
You do great work, Robert.
Really enjoyed this, thanks to both of you for an awesome chat!
Hope to see you guys chat again not too far into the future :)
Hero
I'm cool with being hated.
I say what people don't want me to say. I'm positively charged negative individual. I won't change for anyone.
Nice talk.
I love that Robert is wearing that shirt . he was wearing that shirt when he had a stroke , notice the lines on the shirt where it is sewed back together,, the doctors tore that shirt to get better access. he got the shirt back and wears it as a reminder of the gift of life
It was a Stroke he had, not a heart attack. But that shirt is amazing. I love that his wife sewed it back together and now he wears it kinda like an inspiring battle scar.
Thank you for sharing this.❤
He had a stroke. But yes. I had the shirt on 😊
@@Arkhkalos ty for correcting :)
Why did doctor just un-botton it?
Never a dull moment with Robert Greene.
Ever.
Greene if one of the best human beings I've ever seen.
Amen to that champ
Robert Greene is an old soul.
Yes. Long time ago I found his books and it changed my perspective on my own inner knowing in terms of self confidence. Agree w what he says about people looking for data. Thanks Chris for having him on.
Amen
I appreciated Chris allowing Robert to speak and us listen.

Correct
Couldn't agree with you more! I need to find how I can use personal power and turn it into a Win/Win for those involved.
You’re on the right path if you’re reading this.
That's not how life works
You’re on the wrong path if you’re reading this
@@kwyatt261 fair enough.
@@decompress206 There is no right or wrong path, there just IS. And that's God.
@@kwyatt261 understood.
Man, you can tell this guy is just highly educated and highly pleasant. He lives according to his own teachings of the laws of power.
During covid he was a coward and sheep.

"Lord, protect me from my friends; I can take care of my enemies." - Voltaire
The quote is by Voltaire
only your friends can betray you.
Robert Greene's books 48 Laws of Power and Laws of Human Nature really helped me develop myself in the context of personal and work life.
Im 20 minutes in and Robert's words are sinking in my soul, stirring things up - bc I currently feel like he felt those years ago - searching for purpose in life calling, feeling out of sync with those around me etc...very soulful opening convo.
Robert Greene is one of a kind. I could listen to him all day long. If anyone could list all the books he recommends to read that are his favourites I would appreciate it :)
He’s one in a million so knowledgeable, interesting and humble in my opinion. Great listen.
Here are some:
Victor Frankyl - Man Search of meaning
The Souls code - James Hillman
Frames of Mind - Howard Gardner
The Diaglogues of Plato
What a gift Robert is to this world thank you for a brilliant podcast so authentic so refreshing
17:05 I love how Robert Greene makes those gestures with his hand and goes ‘I don’t know if we’re being filmed’ like they’re not in a state-of-the-art set with cameras and lights all around them

I'd never heard of Roberto Calasso, thanks. I get so much from these talks, from reading tips to validation that is lacking in daily life. All the best to Robert Greene, whose 48 book has been on my reading list for a couple of years (my list is long, I am short - on time 😢)
Read it while you can.
What an interesting character Rob is. I've not read his work, but I plan to now. His willingness to highlight the realities of psychology without apology is very refreshing. Another amazing job on the visuals too, stunning.
His books are great. Would defo recommend
I am so glad you finally have an intelligent guest. Thank you.
A interview with Robert Greene gives me the same feeling I felt at Christmas when I was just a kid
Comfort😊

Recap by Bumpups ✏️
there's a book called whispers of manifestation on borlest , and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract almost everything in life it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal
How has your experience been after reading it?
O listening to Kevin Trudeau your mind will be really blown
Who is the autor of that book?
Bot
Watching this podcast was sublime, the conversation got me into flow state!
In case you couldn't catch the names of the books he recommended, they are:
The ruin of Kasch by Roberto Calasso
And
Homo Ludens by Dutch historian Johan Huizinga
CHRIS I drank a neutonic right before my accounting test and my balance sheet BALANCED.
It was beautiful, thank you
As an accountant, lmao
What an amazing set for an interview.
I have a film. Robert is brilliant, he is quite right about how paths in the brain change. It’s nice to end the day with this smooth voice and his kind thoughts!
Once again thank you, Chris for all the wisdom you bring to the world, bro!
I was only thinking recently wouldn’t it be amazing to get Robert Greene on the show again - hurrah!!!
Robert Green teached me to put my feelimg away and to truly learn from those around you no matter how you feel about them
I dont lile that dudee at all, but he for sure teached me some valuable things
I only recently found your podcast and it's exactly what I've been looking for. Excited to binge the past.
Good times ahead of you, enjoy
Robert is awesome
The side sections in the 48 laws of power were my favourite parts of book - The fables, parables, and stories that made great analogies made me really fascinated by the book
I am waiting for The Sublime to be published 🙂Somehow, deep inside I know it will be a miracle book. Wishing you the very best.
15:36 - This is the most "Joe Dispenza" thing I think one could hear from a "Robert Greene".
I LOVE it.
Thank you, Mr. Williamson and Mr. Greene. I'm at the point in my life where I needed to hear this.
I love to listen to this brilliant man
definitely needed to hear this today.
I have all of Robert's books. Navigating life I rely on his books a lot.
What an incredible story Chris, thank you.
I remember being there when there was only 15k views. The fact that i have been blessed to see something as great as this grow and become amazing makes me feel glad that i was able to witness it.
Pressure is a privilege 💎💯
great podcast! one of the reasons im a huge fan of Stefan Molyneux is that he provides practical philosophy especially in regards to your family and relationships.
I learned some new things listening to this podcast.
"I'd rather die under the stress than be bored and have nothing to do" -Robert Greene
This podcast and Robert Greene >
1:10:30 " create pressure for yourself is a good think" that's amazing life view. Thank you for this video.
Roberts voice gives me so much hope towards a better life. The struggles he has been through and his ability to perceive the world and the way he does is magnificent. A blessing of our time.
I can't wait to read Sublime! I love Robert Greene!
Greene is a legend
Love this set change, let alone the conversation.
Robert Greene has helped me not worry so much about not constantly posting in a world where we are constantly told to post more
Great podcast. Always a pleasure to listen to R.Greene. (About masculinity- there is nothing more sexy than a strong, masculine man treating well women.)
"The truth is more rounded " lovely quote
This guy is the greatest guest ever
compare4 this to j. Petersons pod with MR GREENE, and wow. this is such great production. that said allowing The Man to speak is the way to do this!!!
Fantastic! Read all of Robert’s books. Essential reading.
What a great podcast lucky getting to hear from the great Robert green
But though the advertisement after every 10 minutes is disturbing
Wow! Can't believe my favorite podcaster and favorite author are doing a podcast. Can't wait to write down everything I learn from this podcast episode!
never considered writing down what i hear from podcasts. Gonna steal that idea from you; thanks !

@@chefbrian26why is AI essential for a tool like this.
@@TheMightyMidget I’m sure you could do it without ai but when it comes to pulling stuff in real time and finding things ai really shines.
Robert is continuing to look healthier and more able post stroke
the guy is not only a very interesting mind - writer… the guy is a fighter
Brilliant interview. Thank you
really great podcast - thanks very much
robert greene the master of human interaction
In the midst of rebuilding myself as a man. Thank you, Chris for being apart of so many people's expedition towards a greater life🎄🎄🎄🎄

Amazing episode! Thank you 👍🏼😊
Amazing podcast
"I used to be a club promoter" love you Chris but after 60-80 podcasts listened to I must smile whenever you start this haha, here we go again :)
This was such a good dialogue - thank you for this.
Chris if you’re reading this want to just tell you
Your show have been getting better and better in all terms but the best part is how random but accurate questions comes out from that notes app you have
We would love to see more of the process u have and bts of the setup too
I have had the same issue with Nagel's essay. Cognitive and affective empathy are limited, but is still quite incredible in its capacity for knowing.
I read and watch anything and everything about Robert Green ❤😅
Sublime: if you could graph aw and terror on a graph, one on the y axis, one on the x axis, sublime is the intersection point
I thank you 2 and your team a lot. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to learn something about the world and myself.
Man the master mind reader of Human I am about to thank him for changing my Life.
I'd love to see an interview of Les Stroud aka Survivorman.
Thank you man This fixed my issue completely!
This was a phenomenal episode!
man you saved this convo when he shot at the Joe Rogan spotify.... that was so cool.... like tippy top convo saving.... fuck man well done..
I love this valuable presentation! Thank you Chris and-ROBERT GREENE-MY HERO! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼✅🩵
Allen watts goes into detail about these philosophers particularly zen.

Play and enthusiasm
33:33 It's not about metrics, it's about psychology
46:24
How Robert describes the sensation of the divine is what you feel when you are next to a terribly beautiful woman : awe and terror at the same time
His shirt really suits his personality
Great advertising for LMNT Chris...Love the little subtle movements round the cans to advertise the different cans that kept getting replaced throughout the talk! Clever! Product placement at its best haha. Great chat too keep up the good work!
good one, thanks, Chris! Love Robert Greene!
I'm here because of Robert Green
Ok
Greene
The timeless value of this interview is incredible
I literally love Robert
Awesome looking set!
Robert is wearing his favorite shirt. Love it for him❤
I have a book of Mr. Robert Greene and I told to my son to read it too.
Chris do you have plan to write a book? I think you can write too.
Me I wanna write I want to be an author too but I'm not good at grammar, I don't have lots vocabulary. If I will write the Title are " The Quotes" that transform my life. Handcherchiefs , My Great Mom etc .😊 Have lots on my mind.
Do it. An editor can clean it up!
@@russandrews3078 thanks 👍
Don’t think I ever seen Robert genuinely laugh so much. 😂
cool set chris! my fav author also, changed my life with 48 laws of power.
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the conversation. I agree to the contribution of male role models. There seems to be a lot of confusion of what men should aspire to be. My personal opinion is that nothing can fill the role of a good father, but additional role models in public are also needed.
Mastery is one of the top 3 books I've ever read, Mr Green humanity owes you a debt
