Neuro-Linguistic Podcasting (Premium E252)
Added 2024-07-19 20:49:15 +0000 UTCHave you ever wondered what it’d be like to erase negative thoughts, win every argument, and close every sale? Travis and Brad take you through the sordid tale of a self-help movement that’s equal parts psychotherapy, entrepreneurial success tool, and mind-control technique. A movement that inspired the likes of Tony Robbins, NXIVM, the Landmark corporate cult, and even pick-up artistry. A modality used by IBM and McDonald’s, the U.S. Army and the CIA. A quasi-religion that was poised to be as big as Scientology, if it hadn’t been for a series of self-inflicted wounds. Your brain is a computer, and we’re about to install the story of Neuro-linguistic Programming.

This episode is making me want to listen to a movie night episode about the film What About Bob? and Death Therapy

2024-12-25 04:39:05 +0000 UTCI’m in one of these programs right now. I like it though. It makes me have no negative thoughts. I mean I have them and then instead of like being sad I just go do whatever I’m procrastinating and then I don’t have the thoughts anymore. So that’s pretty good !

2024-07-25 17:13:40 +0000 UTCReally glad you all covered this because I’ve always wanted to know more about NLP after watching the NXIVM documentaries. In some ways it reminds me of Nonviolent Communication in how it demands others use the same lingo or they are being violent or ignoring their needs or whatever.
