Here we use a scenario to make us aware of 2 invisible decisions we often arent even aware we are making: our Focus Choice and Thread Choice, We also walk thru how to read other people's Focus Choice and the way that it paints vs the vibe, and clarify that is the way for us to gain Social Vision.

We use the analogy of 'disguised coverages' as a way that our own identity and our social vision skills are tested and communicated. We cover some how we use our vibe focus in indirect game to drive intrigue, investment, and pursuit.

In this canonical episode, we dive into the mental 'headspace' that constitutes actual good vibing vs 'fake contrived' vibing. We cover how this makes up the majority of the value that we offer to her, from her perspective. We cover these inner focus choices that we don't even know we are making, and how to be aware of them in order to place that focus in the correct place. This episode lays the foundation on how we use Vibe and our projection of us via it to drive the majority of our game offering. We also discuss at the end the 'downward spiral' that happens when we worry we may lose a girl, what actually is happening, and how we can interrupt that spiral to recover.

We shift gears in this episode and do a case study/walk-thru of the movie Wanderlust. This movie is rich in lots of subtle frame tactics and showcases an example of some post-powergaming gamesmanship. We get into a multitude of topics here, but the main drive of this is to start to build our ability to apply our principles into concrete examples and develop our ability to read situations and act optimally.

Here we dive into a conversational threading principle that gives us greater conversational control, drives adapting, and ensures our conversations continue to progress and grow vs fall back and falter. We discuss the concept of thread compliance and thread resistance, and we look at how this is often more important that what words are actually being said.

An informal episode, focused on the mental ego-protective excuses guys make and internal justifications they have that prevent them from growing their game and maximizing their skills and success. We get into the crew environment I learned game in and why it shaped me to be how I am. I am often asked 'will you just put up with anything from a girl?' 'At what point would you next a girl?' All of that is explained here.

My game is Vibe Projection game. What is that? The Vibe is the last main cornerstone for us to cover (the other 2 being Burden & Judgment Authority). The Vibe is our main way to demonstrate and show value, while at the same time building trust. It is our goal-less way of hitting our goal constantly. The Vibe is what makes us COOL. It is our shimmering allure that makes people fall in love with us and secretly try to seduce us. Here we also cover what Projection is, which is our way of telegraphing our value without appearing to be trying to (costing us trust)

Here we FINALLY take a deep dive into what Judgment Authority is. We understand how the concept of The Truth Never Tries links Judgment Authority and the Burden into a unified concept that determines social influence and control.

We also cover :

Why being "high-value" is a myth and why its simply Judgment Authority that drives that

What nice guys really get wrong

Why "asshole game" doesnt work and is the natural next step for former 'nice guys'

What rappers get wrong

A little bit of a niche episode, but in this one we cover the key principles of breaking up with a girl and how make what is a difficult process the least painful we can (and most importantly not making it any more painful than it needs to be)

This episode dives into a key concept of where we place our mental attention. We discuss how we are sub-communicating where that attention is placed to others, and the implications is has for social power dynamics. The quote I often use of 'Frame is Focus' is touched on in this episode.

The goal of this episode is to make us aware of something we should be aware of but usually arent... where our mental attention is placed and how much attention it is. This helps us control our own game leaks and to read other with greater ease.

This episode talks about approach anxiety and its causes. While we start out on that subject, we quickly use this as our first foray into a mental concept of mine called Judgment Authority, with its associated principle I often quote of 'The Truth Never Tries'.

While this episode seems to target beginners... it actually represents one of the more advanced principles via its subject matter of Judgment Authority.

Judgment Authority is THE most important, over-arching concept in game, and its power extends well beyond it into business and politics.

This episode is our initial brush with that construct.
