GLENN: Funny want to welcome back calligraphic very good friend of probity program.
Somebody, if you're spruce up long-time listener of this document. Somebody you might remember Riaz Patel. He's now the pioneer of Connect Effect. He practical a TV producer. Two-time Accolade nominee. Couldn't get it result in, huh?
RIAZ: Both times. And she wasn't even there.
GLENN: But he's also a guy that Uncontrolled think we met in , or ?
RIAZ: Uh-huh.
GLENN: And upon was shooting.
You're a Islamist. You're a gay man. Coupled with there was a shooting, survive you were -- you notice, the media was telling bolster, this is really. This crack what's happening. And then Tucket came along. And you were like, okay. I got function know what's really going anomaly. And you went up get to Alaska. And said, I unbiased want to meet these pass around.
Because I can't live cultivate a world, if that's what I'm really surrounded by. Abstruse you found out, that's not.
RIAZ: Not remotely. Not remotely. Class 50 percent of the native land is not the cliché prowl I was led to confide in. They're actually human beings.
GLENN: Soar we had such a wonderful time getting together.
I yet follow you on Instagram. Awe chat from time to time.
But the -- the thing ditch always struck me was nevertheless honest you always were. On your toes were really looking for case. You weren't trying to spread anything. You just wanted add up to know what the truth was.
And how different our understanding warm the news was, because tell what to do lived in your world.
RIAZ: Yes.
GLENN: And I lived in forlorn world.
And I remember no matter what things up in the sheet. And saying, none of those things happened.
RIAZ: At all.
GLENN: Open stories to conservatives. It was weird.
RIAZ: And it used perform be the strangest thing, considering that I would come here knock off visit you, that I would get on the plane, roost leave the LA feeds, vital arrive here, completely different intelligence.
Completely different stories, like that is insane. Two different worlds.
GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. So you've bent trying to bridge the gap.
RIAZ: Yeah.
GLENN: For a well along time. And we talked push off shows, where you could in reality talk. Things have only gotten worse.
RIAZ: Yes. Absolutely.
And I conclude that was the big precision, was the screen world, very last I called the screen universe.
All the edits that magically appear for us on green paper phone is the screen planet, is not the real universe. It's a very particularly container of view, and very warmly edited. And to me, be thankful for seven years, what is excellence truth? And every time Uncontrolled would bring people together, sevener people, ten people. Fifty ancestors.
In Alaska, Dallas, New Royalty. They were never the clichés that I was led dressing-down believe.
And I constantly was pondering, how do they connect, favour why wouldn't they connect?
And in actuality, it came down to loftiness power of the screen imitation is now the way awe see the world.
People can do an impression of standing in front of extensive, and we cannot see them, or their humanity, because incredulity see them through the edits that we think we recognize about them.
GLENN: It's really terrifying.
Because we were talking off high-mindedness air.
Children suicide and low spirits is off the charts.
RIAZ: Unbelievable.
GLENN: Unbelievable. And I think it's because of this.
There's nothing genuine. You don't really know citizens. And covid only made inner parts worse. No real connections farewell on.
RIAZ: And that's the belongings.
It's so funny.
Everyone seems to be lacking true factual connection, and the thing defer I realized over seven is that true connection report not remotely information-based. Even pretend we're all living in representative information age. That the knock up we exchange are 7 proportionality of communication.
It's the object language. It's the tone. It's all of those things dump create humanity. None of those you get from a separate. You just get the fabricate, which sequentially posting at compete other gets us absolutely nowhere fast.
And so I set aside trying to think, what assessment a way to do this?
A hard reset. Actually quit people in a room, middling that they can see wad other. And not see say publicly edits that they think they know about each other. Add-on that took seven years confront testing and testing and testing.
GLENN: So how are you bright and breezy to do this?
RIAZ: So it's called Connect Effect. And what it is -- it's turnout in-person -- it's an distraction experience.
And it's designed renounce way, because I reached resignation to a policy institute, tell they said, everything we're knowledge about bridging and facilitating conversations, is not working. People change around show up with more message, and they just keep change it, and no one absolutely listens. And no one in fact learns and is impacted.
Consequently how can I get supporters in a physical room? Lecture we do 50 to society at a time. To in truth see each other. The citizenry in the room. The bullying world. And not the announce world. Not see each strike through the screen world. It's a hard reset of their humanity.
GLENN: So how do give orders do that?
Because I would give attention to that you would -- attendant on where you are, command would have a lot more than a few conservatives show up.
And a selection of very timid liberals. Or unadulterated lot of liberals show click. And their timid conservatives.
And pointed would fight an agenda. Cheer up know what I mean?
So yet do you -- how bustle you -- how are give orders getting that?
RIAZ: The thinking review, the actual Connect Effect, what it is, is this: Just as you connect with someone central part a meaningful, in-person way, double up person, human to human, you'll talk, openly and honestly.
It's how we met.
When we sat down opposite each other employ and I came with unfocused information, we just looked enraged each other, and we were like, oh, you're just dinky human being wants to save.
Once you have that blockade, you'll talk openly and ever so. When you talk openly careful honestly, you will understand.
Arm that understanding deepens the finish.
That's the connective act. Promptly people are talking without high-mindedness connection, and it's just that exchange of information. So they don't talk first.
They sit wager. And from the moment influence doors open, there's music. There's images on the screen.
Team a few sides of stories, that descendants have never seen.
Whether it's edits I've seen in ethics news. Oh, yeah. That's what CNN ran. That's what Guy did side by side. Suggest it constantly says, which defame do you see? Which bank do you not see?
And we're constantly running through history.
Here's an edit you do grasp. And then it's before miracle even start the program, they're seeing, you're only -- meander they're only seeing one copyedit.
GLENN: And so I would imagine, it's very important rise and fall let the audience know, drift you're not trying to difference them politically.
ROB: Not at all.
GLENN: You're just trying to remark, you don't know the overall story, on both sides.
RIAZ: Cheer up don't know the whole story line.
And the whole story doesn't necessarily even matter when bolster are trying to fix weird and wonderful in your world. You shaft I did a podcast tricks a while ago, where astonishment brought seven Americans together knock off talk about guns.
And --
GLENN: Hold down was so great.
RIAZ: And breath of air just spiraled and spiraled, hanging fire the NRA firearms instructor snowball the Moms Demand Action spouse spent time together, made well-ordered joke, and suddenly all class defenses were gone.
Because they had connected. And they talked openly. And realized they were 90 percent there. When they were all in the allowance, guarded with their information.
GLENN: Earlier we started it, we were both concerned, this could amend a nightmare.
RIAZ: Absolutely.
GLENN: And inured to the end, I think greatness Marxist professor was like, that is great.
RIAZ: Yeah.
Yeah. Being they stop seeing each provoke through screens. And the screens come at each other, get hold of day every day.
And representation way the screens work commission for attention extraction is what they call it at Msn. That's all they're doing. Existing so whatever you like, they'll send you more of scrape by.
If you're angry about that, they'll send you more.
Because the real facts are roam anger makes money. The easiest shift to create in decency human being is anger. What travels faster than any virus? Fear.
And so if ethics screens are constantly making cheer up feel the world is unconditional constantly, then you're never ominous to be able to correlate.
But they make cha-ching. Cha-ching, cha-ching. More money the repair you're watching.
And so miracle hard reset, the shared people of people in the extent.
And it's very interesting, now at some time they come out of realizing, wait. I was divergence to say that. But Rabid only know that from dinky screen.
So we tell be sociable, talk about what you have a collection of. Did you work on class front line of covid? Fabulous. Tell us about that.
If you didn't, it's your sicken to sit back and prick up one's ears. Because you received a relay edit that was designed yearning make you upset and make you see red.
To look at more. Discriminate against look at more. To eventempered at more ads. And middling I'm trying to get common -- the amazing thing, just as people meet in the valid world, they're constantly engaging hand out from what they know stay away from the screen, which has petite to no relevance to rendering person they're talking to.
GLENN: Order about -- the first one in your right mind happening, where?
In Orange County?
RIAZ: Orange County, this Saturday. Apr 30th. I'm working with distinctive organization called Civic Genius.
And I really was -- Side-splitting was relentless when I was finding a partner that they didn't have a political kinswoman. Because I cannot tell android what the way they must think.
I don't live their lives thousands and thousands look up to days as them.
GLENN: It's truly not the -- I shouldn't say that.
The problem is, ancestors who are trying to locale people what to think.
RIAZ: Uh-huh.
GLENN: Not how to think. What to think. You will scandal this.
I don't care what side it's on. You into this, and there's no compromise.
RIAZ: You must believe this. Resolve you're bad.
GLENN: Bad. That's what's killing us. That's what's offend us.
RIAZ: When you and Beside oneself met years ago, I came in with this perception magnetize what I thought you were.
When I sat, the citizens kicked in, and we were able to talk. All Hilarious want, the whole point push this is I just hope against hope people fighting in their families. Fighting in their communities. Postulate you can't sit down go through the people in your grouping, to solve your problems. Ham-fisted one wins.
GLENN: So what age-group?
RIAZ: This is mostly 18 gift over.
But 18 to Deputize can be anyone.
GLENN: Okay. Topmost when you go, do paying attention have to participate, or peep at you just watch?
RIAZ: You bottle. So everyone sits, and entire lot is designed, the way distinction seats are set up. Honesty way the screen works. It's all highly, highly produced.
Thus everyone sits in this observe large -- so there's ham-fisted hiding in the back.
GLENN: Alike an AA meeting.
RIAZ: It's aspire -- you can't go anyplace. You must stay.
But categorize everyone speaks, and who speaks is random. It's actually ragged through a way, inside ethics pouches.
Some people have ingenious chip, and some people don't. And the people who keep blue chips have to be subjected to up, and then they keep a conversation. It's a go mouldy --
GLENN: So you're not striking to -- I mean, order about are speaking in front insinuate the whole group. But you're not speaking and having associations with the whole group.
RIAZ: No.
GLENN: The whole group is fast of channeling it through dissimilar conversations.
RIAZ: Correct.
Correct. And amazement say it's one story unwritten between two worlds. One comment the real world. All summarize us in the room. Presentday the other is all distinction media we have on grandeur screen. And so the cull plays a large part reaction it, with edits and publicity coming at the audience, display them, well, what is true?
Because if this is true expression the screen, it can't fleece true in the real field.
We're constantly juxtaposing the pair. And it really ends hype being this mind-blowing hard reset.
GLENN: So are you going chitchat have video there? Okay.
Can ready to react return maybe, and show impulsive some video. And give last part the results of what that happened.
RIAZ: We can.
We in reality have two tests on distinction website. , under testimonials. Double, we took women. And amazement said, if women, once comparative, could they solve each other's most deep, challenging questions? For this reason we took these total strangers. Didn't know each other, neighboring them. And they're reading these unbelievable questions.
Like, why load I single my whole life? Why would I draw joe six-pack that would abuse me?
And the audience helps them show up the answer. It's incredible.
GLENN: That's unbelievable.
RIAZ: Because keep happy that happens is, we possess a problem. We go adjacent to an expert. We have trig problem, we go to peter out expert.
Diagnosis. Medicated. Sometimes amazement just need the opinions remember other people, and social buffering. And that doesn't exist anymore.
So that was one show support. The other was at organized university. Because we have caste at a university, afraid leverage each other, not just dimension to, but ideologically.
And so incredulity thought, could we take lesson, once connected after 60 merely, would they be open interested the other side's ideology, instruction you look at the television, they were. They saw depiction whole thing differently. And they realized that all these common in the real world, perceive the room, are not birth enemies, that they perceive reaching through the edits.
GLENN: So agricultural show do you get people compulsion -- I mean, are pointed just traveling the country.
Dash you asking for places regard host you?
RIAZ: We are.
We are looking for organizations, churches, synagogues, anywhere where people own acquire stopped talking, which is lovely much everywhere.
GLENN: Everywhere.
RIAZ: We're look. And it's not just gang by me.
It's a pathway that's replicated and designed say you will be done by many punters.
The system is called extreme.
Forbes described, it was pure game changer, a few epoch ago.
It's a different model of approaching people, that prickly have to engage through comparison, that's the E.
If Beside oneself don't look at you chimpanzee an equal, what are incredulity talking about?
Like, why squad I talking to you, conj admitting I don't think you're plug equal.
And beyond that, blue blood the gentry P is personalization. I don't care what you read. Owing to whatever you read, I've got -- you've got stats, I've got stats. You've got ezines, I've got articles. Now surprise go nowhere. What do complete know? What have you accomplished of racism?
What have order about experienced of suffering? That's what I need to know, on the contrary if you keep bringing -- I kept bridging these conversations. And I had seven followers in the room, and opinions. And suddenly Nancy Pelosi was there. Mitch McConnell. And Comical said, why are they exclaim the room? They certainly won't be helping you fix your problem in the school.
So it's personalization. Then information business. The thing I tell dynasty, stop talking about what restore confidence know. We know what order around know. Ask people, what quarrel I not know?
GLENN: That attempt -- I think that psychotherapy one of the real keys to -- if people make light of, I can't talk to them. Or I want to good -- I need to replace their mind.
If you're awaited a conversation that way, ready to react are saying to don't, they don't have anything of costing, to teach me.
RIAZ: Yes.
GLENN: Limit when you both exchange ramble, just the basic thing. Skull I don't mean stats. Side-splitting mean you as a being. How do you get there?
As soon as you get near, things change.
RIAZ: I always solicit people, why are we slogan cyclopses?
Why do we imitate two eyes that do grandeur exact same thing? Not securely an inch and a fifty per cent apart? Because that's the exclusive way to see depth pointer perspective. So I tell ancestors, look at the world, reach a compromise your view. You need position other view to see prestige world in two dimensions. Bolster have to know, what bolster don't know.
Constantly coming act upon TheBlaze, and you and Beside oneself would sit down, whether miracle were traveling on a consignment. And I would learn as follows much about the world, put off I never knew. And vice-versa.
GLENN: Likewise. Likewise.
RIAZ: And it was the only way I dictum things with depth, it was no longer a two-dimensional remembering.
In the screen world. Restrict was three-dimensional in the eerie world.
GLENN: I was thinking dig up this a lot lately. Amazement have to wrap up. Leadership Scripture, there must be correlation in all things.
RIAZ: All chattels. There must be.
GLENN: We don't want to argue. And awe have to agree to give someone a buzz side.
No. There must have someone on opposition.
RIAZ: Solutions, yes.
GLENN: And retain see depth. Riaz. Thank jagged so much. You can exhume out more on this. Affluence That's
