Is it intentional that you uploaded this video with the exact same title as the one that was about Joe Rogan? (Instead of calling it "How to Deal with Disrespect Without Being a Jerk", or "How to Command Respect Without Being A Jerk, Vol II") You openly stated that you're being experimental with your thumbnail and video title, so I feel like this might be an intentional experiment.

A great fresh topic to cover could be the art of charisma through language barriers. I'm about to embark on my own journey for 2 years abroad, and can't imagine what it's like to authentically connect with people who you can't fully understand or communicate with. I've heard you touch on the subject of enthusiasm as it relates to this, but I think it would be valuable to hear you do a deep dive, given your experience living abroad.

As a child I witnessed a man insult my friend's mother in front of a whole group of her friends. There was a very awkward silence while she just looked at him, then she smiled and said very loudly, 'how very unkind of you to say so', and then she just carried on talking to her friends. The man was totally humiliated and slunk away. Brilliant!

Xlnt recount. As a friend was becoming increasingly more abrasive with me, I suddenly stopped listening respectfully, looked her directly in both eyes, and said coldly " You can never talk this way to me again." It stunned her mid-sentence, she was silent, almost frozen for 8 to 10 seconds as I held eye contact, and she re-animated and said "You're right. I'm sorry, you didn't deserve that." Things have been on a more even keel since then, but we'll see. I don't need an apology nor any capitulation or "a win"...I simply want certain parameters of engagement to be followed when talking with friends. If I wanted a fight, I'd go to a bar, where it's acceptable for conversations to escalate quickly to shouting and insults. But not ever with friends or family. Proximity and emotional investment do not necessarily open the gates to intentional injury or agenda-based attacks. If we are in a relationship where we would normally be open and caring, it is not okay to use that proximity and closeness as a weapon or entree to deeper nerves and more painful attacks, which is exactly what happens in most self- consuming love/hate relationships. Taking advantage of that intimacy to hurt someone is against the rules, and simply, openly shows how immature that person's real feelings are toward the relationship. It is a hard lesson to learn and many relationships don't survive that growth process. Adults still have a need for internal growth, and need to learn the lessons of forgiveness, patience, and perspective with their families, friends, lovers, and even strangers. Simply not accepting bad behavior is a step toward a better relationship. But it can also be a step toward no relationship, too. Some people we just grow away from, or grow out of. Others we grow toward and often, we grow with each other. The garden analogy fits especially well when dealing with weeds and chronically destructive behavior. Encourage fruitful, healthy behavior and relationships, expect little or no returns from weeds and corrosive others. If we give respect, love, compassion, patience and positivity, and get none in return, it may be time for a "lesson"...but likely it's time to "lessen" our own burden and "listen" to our gut...move on. There are far better things to do than to try to change others' behavior and habitual negativity. Fix or forget...like an old car or classic stereo. It doesn't really matter how much you love it, it may be beyond fixing, and you may simply be in love with an image or an idea, rather than the reality. Keep the dream, toss the reality? I love old friends and old cars and hifis. Guess which ones are easier to maintain. Aye, there's the wicket! Cheers!

I’m a cashier at an estate sale company. So weekly i deal with tons of people who want to pay little to nothing for whatever they have in mind and usually try to talk down to you. I’m glad seeing this video and showed me I actually learned a lot of these practices on my own, such as ignoring rude people and not letting them interrupt my speech. I see others in similar situations say they find themselves checking out emotionally but I do the exact opposite when faced with aggression/ malice I try to to pretend they didn’t say anything but simple facts. Such as when people ask the price of an item and I tell them “$5” they love to respond with something like “$5? I can buy them brand new for that much!” To which I reply we’ll that one is $5. Rather than ignoring them I acknowledge what they said without giving them a single inch toward their statement. I’ve had several people stand next to my register repeatedly asking “why not $3?” And I just ignore them. If I reply it’s “$5” and nothing else. Don’t let people build imaginary power over you!

I've always instinctively had a very blank facial response when people would attacked me verbally. As I've been doing this more recently, with my sister, I've noticed that she tends to tell me the whole truth (and usually ends up talking herself in a circle, realizing holes in her own argument) when I just keep my mouth shut for a little bit. It seems to have the same effect as "practicing" what you're going to say to an inanimate object. The second she senses any sort of reaction in me, she changes her speech, and doesn't say what she wants to say, but rather, reactions to my reaction. Sometimes it feels impossible to have a civil conversation with her, so I've adapted to the fact that if I let her talk for long enough, she usually realizes that she's the one in the wrong, and I barely have to say a thing.

To be honest: The BEST way to be listened, is to truly listen to whatever a person has to speak FIRST, and only when asked respond. It takes A LOT of training, patience and charity to do this, but it is possible. It is necessary to really LISTEN with your ears, but also your HEART, with an open demeanor and friendly feeling. It means to develop charisma for the person speaking and not to whatever he's speaking. People will compliment you for your benevolence, politeness and will still call you smart. All the best.

Yes, Do this, and everyone will say that YOU are the scintillating conversationalist, when you actually said next to nothing at all. You just listened and made a person feel worthy for a moment. Because so few people actually listen to other people, the fact that you listened is a special treat.

Very helpful. Most people won't be facing trained national media figures in their meetings. Two important ones for ANY meeting are "finish your sentence even when someone interrupts" and "don't let your ego get hurt". The first one just takes a minor bit of courage. The second is much harder because your ego wants to jump up and fight when you are insulted but thats almost never the right move.

Someone said years ago about the political scene in Wash. D.C., "That place is toxic. They destroy people for sport." This sick state of affairs has expanded to our entire media industry.

The thing about Russel Brand is he is way too smart than many people think and those that know him know he's very smart and quick to use a plethora of words he has on hand to counter attack any argument. I don't think anyone in the world can win an argument against Russel completely without any replied backlash that has a lot of thought into it.

I absolutely agree with eye contact - making the person feel watched (there have been studies where they put stickers of eyes in public places and observed a raise in moral and pro-social behavior). Also the silence, making the person feel the urge to fill the gap, usually making themselves look worse, or trying to back pedal. The thing about calling a person by their name I think also has the effect of breaking through the barrier of them feeling safer by being a part of the group. I think it would make them feel less protected and more directly culpable. Not just them enjoying hearing their name.

Simply on another level... most people don't have the minerals to handle a 3 to 1 barrage live on TV. Kudos to Russell. Top man, very underated.

Russel Brand is one of the most intelligent and interesting people on the planet. The quick witted and non shaken foundation that he stands firmly upon is only enhanced by his ability to speak the truth in a manner that leaves his opponent in a submissive state

I love Russell's confidence. When you're smart enough and secure in who you are it's easy to deal with situations like these. Standup comedy is great for honing these skills. Most of us don't have enough experiences like these to get good at dealing with them.

these hosts were so rude to Russell smh great breakdown!

He did well under the circumstances - but talk about a low quality interview/exchange.

His stand up, in the moment, quick thinking helps to remain calm.

The first part is to genuinely not care what someone says about you, then you can retain your emotional reaction and clearly respond. Once you care what someone irrelevant to you says, then you likely lost control of your critical thinking. If someone whose response you care about says something negative toward you, then you should hold them to an esteem to know you warrant a cordial discussion and assume they need your help (or possibly you can learn something) to understand each other.

1. Finish your sentences. Don't stop midway. 2. Refer everyone by their name. Look at them for 3 seconds when speaking to someone 3. Emphasize similarities with others and complement them. 4. Use non verbal signal. Good signals (smiling at them, complementing them) encourage their behavior. Bad ones (not paying attention to them, giving them uncomfortable looks) tells them to stop something. 5. Call out bad behavior but don't point out the person specifically. Give them the chance to change the behavior. 6. Flat out criticize the behavior if the last one doesn't work. Criticize the behavior, not the person. 7. Detach your ego from personal attacks.

That second title is very vague, this is much more specific and subtle, and actually practical. I obviously know this is a joke but this is just for those who are gullible or dont think twice about what they read.

This is SO helpful, thank you. When I was bullied in the past, I could after the fact form a calm, logical reply to both defeat what was said and illuminate the bad behavior without succumbing to it. Unfortunately, in the moments it actually occurred, what happened instead is I'd get so flustered by the unkind ridicule that I'd stammer or even get my words turned around... which of course only gave bullies more to mock. It was humiliating. While I no longer walk a daily gauntlet through school corridors, there is still a family member whose narcissism has turned her into a bully whose tactics are quite unfair and whom I can't avoid entirely. This video gives me some great tips for dealing with her when I must, or with any others I might encounter.

I just wanted to chime in my two cents here and say that one of these pieces of advice stands out to me as something that just seems like good social etiquette completely outside of the conversation about Charisma. The idea of positively reinforcing behaviour you want to see more of without being condescending or passive aggressive I think is something we need to put a lot more thought into in our daily lives, having been on both sides of a confrontation I feel like a lot of people feel extremely uncomfortable and vulnerable in changing their attitudes and approaches. Refusing to give any acknowledgement or worse making them feel small and submissive for doing so only serves to make them feel like there was no point in making that gesture and they should simply go back to the previous attitude they felt more comfortable in. If someone is already willing to humble themselves for wronging you, more often than not humbling them further just becomes abusive and damaging to the conversation, welcome and appreciate the effort.

I've always been someone who speaks my mind especially,, when it's regarding something I care about . However, there are many times I choose not to respond because some people just aren't worth it & as we get older, we care less what others think about us.

I am a media consultant and I saw this interview and I was fascinated by Russells incredibly quick mind and how expertly he handled them without insulting them directly but correcting their bad over used and yet unaccountable rude and bad on air behaviour produced and pushed by bad producers.

Russell has a secret weapon...he's vastly underestimated. That man is actually incredibly intelligent but things like his antics, his past drug use and his unusual appearance tends to make people draw...less than intelligent conclusions of him so they enter a conversation with him thinking they have the upper hand. It's a bit like the dozens or hundreds of battles you hear about where a general marches his army right up to the enemy without realizing it's a trap. They show their hand in the conversation and Russell dismantles it with intelligence and a charming personality. I'm not a fan of his work in entertainment but I do have a lot of respect for him!

Great video. Personally having been in public speaking club find the most useful tip is the three second rule. Even when talking to a few friends, always look directly at one person and keep moving gaze to all those involved conversation one by one whilst talking. Also if someone else comes in to listen, look at them too. This makes people feel comfortable and want to engage. The opposite is true if you don't involve them and they tend to become disinterested and start their own conversation with someone else...

One of the worst things that can be done when experiencing any version of aggression is to deny that it is happening, for example, ignore it, excuse the attacker, pretend that it was a joke etc. It works in some situations but in most cases only escalates the violence, especially with people who are always in our lives. They will become regular bullies to the breaking point.

I think this is solid advice but I think the thing that has to kept in mind is this is not just for enemies but for even the closest of friends. We have to feel comfort in establishing boundaries and reinforcing them when those boundaries are violated. This does make us the bad guy and doesn't mean we have to get aggressive or hostile when boundaries are crossed. It means that a lot of the tactics you discussed can be implemented for overall healthier relationships with everyone around us. Sometimes it is knowing when not to engage further or just walk away. This speak volumes where words can just beat a dead horse or cause more contention.

Tips from the video: (TLDR) 1) dont leap into conversation to be cut off, make sure to FINISH your sentence even if people try to but in 2) Treat each member of group as an individual (use their names) and give eye contact 3) emphasize similarities with other members and give genuine compliments 4) calm stare in eye, dont pay attention to the person being mean and make it TENSE with stares and dont speak until they change to nice 5) call out behavior you appreciate and smile and engage with that behavior in enthusiastic ways 6) get rid of conversational tension ONLY when people change topic to nicer conversation 7) pay attention to nice members of a group and ignore rude ones 10) talk about behavior you dont like but dont call them out directly 11) Detach ego from personal attacks, and dont defend your ego or yourself MAKES YOU MORE CONFIDENT you are ENOUGH without opinions of others!

I'm an event photographer, and one of the moments I'm proudest of was when I was fixing up a guy's outfit before a group picture. As I was doing it, he yelled over to his friends, "See? I told you I could get her to touch me." They all laughed, but I acted like I didn't hear them (which was impossible, we were all in a fairly tiny room), so the dude who made the joke half-repeated it to cut through the awkwardness. I waited another beat and then said only loud enough for him to hear, "I heard you. I'm just not laughing." Then I made eye contact with him and told him to go stand with the other guys so I could take the picture. He wouldn't look at me for the rest of the event and did EVERYTHING I told him to, immediately.

i like this segment because I encountered many times with individuals who likes to overtalk without letting you finish. Especially with some who are either rude, attention seeking or have ADHD. Next time when that happens to me (which happens from time to time) then I will stay shut until that person is finished. I will say like a relief for the person that "that's good to let that out quickly because you do not want to lose your train of thought" into making them think that they have a bad memory and manners. I know it's mean but I have a 9 year old niece and she has ADD. I teach her on how to be nice to other people who are speaking now than later on in her life as a rude individual. A quick lesson is to let her talk first and then said to her "you see how nice that we let you talk and everyone listen so now give other people a chance" but in a really nice way.

Demanding respect without building ego is definitely a delicate balance. And a big part most people fail is not being respectful themselves.

I practice the "finish your sentence" when interrupted and people do usually take it more serious and hear me out. I switch to a deeper chest tone of voice to overpower their vocal bass so it's not shouting but rather increasing the vocal weight. The interrupter usually have poor communication skills or less respect or familiarity with you. Continue anyways because others are usually still interested and often also annoyed by the interruption.

So I just switch my focus from external to internal and basically talk to myself until I finish. I guess it really is the best response to being interrupted, even if it doesn't mean keeping the talking stick.

He's the type of person that has the hardest time living in a clown's world. Logical, intelligent, compassionate and kind people have an invisible target on their back that most of their lives will not even realize it's there.

It was so compassionate of him to call his girlfriends grandfather (Andrew Sachs), an old man, telling him how he had slept with his grandaughter (Georgina Baillie)

Russel is a social genious. I am naturally intimidating so i rarely get people being rude to my face but also its a bit lonely because i am surrounded by a bunch of Yes men constantly and my best and only friend just died so. Well man this became dark. Peace and love people!

Watched this out of boredom and didn't expect much, but I suspect youve helped a lot of folks with this. Ty.

That Morning Joe interview was shocking. I watched that ages ago and was so taken aback by how rude, disrespectful and unprofessional they were. Russell handled the situation brilliantly but they should be ashamed of themselves for how they conducted themselves.

The guy didnt align to their politics, they treated him not just like the enemy , but like enemy that is garbage. One would think TV stations and press should be impartial and only present the facts not the optics or politically correct narrative .

They underestimate Russel, and he is sharper than they think. Master of language on two continents, and obviously human behavior.

Quite the opposite, Russell is far dimmer than most of the public realises.

Thank you I really needed to learn this. Now I can finally talk to people

I'm so glad I found you! Excellent advice for me, a person who gets run over quite a lot in social situations.

Russel's smile at 7:50 is the most masterful, subtle "gotcha" I've ever seen.

He literally says in the video that one is coming

I’ve been learning some of these thing since high school working in retail and now I understand why they’ve been coming naturally. Now I know what to emphasize more of in these situations.

You don't want to insult someone like Russell brand he is really quick witted and funny .

Russell openly admits that he constantly works on his ego & anger issues. He's a work in progress & I really appreciate his transparency.

This interview with Brand was an excellent object lesson for me. I’m a barista at a coffee shop. We daily encounter some of the rudest and self entitled people. We can become very passive-aggressive and I find myself not looking at people while taking orders. It becomes too much and I oft feel emotionally beat up and mentally drained by the end of a five hour shift. Some customers…🙄

Totally true, it takes energy to engage somebody with eye contact and acknowledge their presence that way. If you don’t feel like engaging for those 2 seconds, it’s obvious that your energy is depleted in that moment. It’s the fast paced work environment. It’s unnatural to the psyche

I stopped going to a small coffee shop because one of the cashiers there was extremely rude to me. I’m never rude, and very soft spoken and shy, and when I got to the counter, she very coldly said “what do you want?” With a disgusted look. This doesn’t typically happen to me, so I was taken aback and blanked out on what I wanted to order. After a few seconds of silence, I just turned around and walked out. I felt bad and thought I had done something wrong for some reason. I haven’t gone back.

@@ascendednightingale2456 actually I think you handled it quite well. Without a word you let the other person know that her behavior was unacceptable.

I loved it when Russell to it to Chelsea Handler on her own show. That was priceless! 😊
