Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1990DM Brad Beeler spent 25 years in the Secret Service getting people to admit the worst things they've ever done. His top communication tip: be interested more than you try to be interesting. A nervous suspect sits at 120 or 130 beats a minute, deep in fight or flight. Beeler wants that heart rate down before he asks anything hard. So he bought one suspect Wendy's and a Frosty. Nervous people don't eat, and this man scarfed it down. Beeler had combed the man's Facebook and found a pit bull in photo after photo. He asked about free time and let him beam about that dog for ten minutes. Then the man disclosed something done to him as a kid, at about the same ages as his victims. Beeler went back to the dog. Treated well it's amazing, but shock it and feed it only when it fights and you create a monster. That gave the man an off-ramp to the truth without excusing a thing. He got 47 years in prison.

  • If you just said one trait, I would say be interested more than trying to be interesting.

  • Dale Carnegie, like I said, is that when you,

  • especially in leisure activities, let's kind of tease this out a little bit.

  • So if we're talking and you know you're coming in here and you're accused of something,

  • what's your heart rate, do you think?

  • Higher.

  • Yeah, whether it be a job interview, whether it be talking to your parents about,

  • did you wreck the car last night or get a ticket, or law enforcement.

  • Your heart rate's probably 120, 130. Once your heart rate gets to a certain point,

  • everything starts to turn into fight or flight.

  • You get that tunnel vision.

  • And that's not good.

  • So I want to, one, make a great introduction.

  • I want you to feel like you're in a good space.

  • Maslow's hierarchy of needs, I want to work on that base.
