I ABSOLUTLY LOVED THAT INTERVIEW! Some people complained but it's actually great to see a real conversation between the interviewer and Robert. An interview shouldn't be Robert Greene reciting his knowledge, there are his books for that. It should be an interviewer asking questions we all ask ourselves reading his books and bouncing on what Robert says. So, THANK YOU FOR THAT WONDERFUL INTERVIEW, i really learned a lot and omg the Quibi thing got me sooooo excited!

The reason why Robert was accused of selling out is because he gave up the secrets for how most rich people have gotten rich and have stayed rich. Their is a positive and negative way to use 48 laws of power. Misuse of the information is how the rich stay rich. Also, his explanation for why black hip hop artist gravitate towards his book was spot on. He was being modest or trying not to be “so perfect”by saying she needed to ask them but he already knew the reason why. Robert is a genius.

Schadenfreude.. "Oh I love schadenfreude, its amazing" lol. It's either she didn't understand where Robert was headed or didn't know the meaning of the word. This interviewer was unprepared for Robert & that is evident from her nervousness in her voice and her questions she was asking. I have heard quite a number of interviews with Robert & this should be one of the worst.

Maryam Ihsan yes and no. I would say she’s actually nervous (pay attention to her body language), and in a way, yes, besides being nervous, she doesn’t want to look bad on his own shown with a person she admires. Anyway, I don’t think it’s that bad if you compare it to some of the people who have interviewed him. The first one of chase jarvis is pretty bad for example, while the second he actually changed and adapted to RG.

@@rODIUMuk i think most of us, who follow RG work, would be a bit like her. Nervous. And well, not be exactly the best interviewer in the world. Obviously this is her work (job perhaps? i don't know her), and one would expect a better outcome because of that. If you go to the last minutes of the interview, i think you can easily read her. She's in a more relaxed state, and not overthinking about the course of the interview and the script she had in her mind. Anyway, check out the interview by Phil Keoghan if you haven't yet.

What is each episode you did a thing where it was kind of like The story of a guy Girl who is trying to learn their genetic shows Each log Represented in two or three episodes where one episode shows the transgression one shows up and how individual when they learn their history and bloodline they get flashbacks Of real historical Examples and its somehow tied to there blood line. & as they learn there genetic history they slowly begin to apply the laws. One episode for the transgressions one for the application & one for the applications & observants of the laws. - Obviously it needs to be done well stretched out while the same time being poignant visceral & to the point to show how things can go really really bad if you don’t master the laws, or at least learn the proper timing for its applications ie - mastering the art of timing

I like this interview and you are p sweet but this video would have 2 maybe even 1 or 0 dislikes if you went into that opportunity to talk about Roberts next book “the law of the sublime” holy fuck I’ve never been so let down that you changed the subject. He’s had soooooo many interviews and only 2 as far as I know (the psychology podcast at the 1:05:00 mark and another one) have talked about his next book that people are dying to hear about. Robert has fans that literally look for every interview that he has and while they are all great interesting interviews they’re pretty much the same thing. Few interviewers really go into this subject of the sublime that we are dying to hear more about. I’m sure it was nerve racking to have Robert Greene there but you don’t have to do that much. He can talk for 10 mins straight and keep it really interesting we want to know as much as possible from him any other guest I would ever see on a podcast. If I were doing this interview my goals would be to get him to talk as MUCH AS POSSIBLE about his next book so my podcast would stand out and I would learn more about this book I’m dying to hear about and also to ask questions I had while reading the laws of human nature. Good interview... but could make it amazing if you get him back on

The modern self help industry is mostly garbage, to answer the question. I'm sorry to say but you are better off reading any European classics than anything modern. The Self Help book category is especially bad tbh, hence why Robert Greene books are so refreshing, frankly he's one of the few interesting writers in that field today. Even books like authors like Goggins or Ryan Holiday are entertaining but still frankly garbage if you're being honest with yourself. There are no mind blowing tips or ideas in any of these books. But the thing is people don't want to read books that stimulate their brains anymore. People only read philosophy if they have to for a philosophy class.
