- 0:16Speaker 3: We're always giving these tricks, Cubby and I try them,
- 0:19Speaker 3: and let's hope this one sticks. So first of all,
- 0:22Speaker 3: first of all, psychologists are saying, here's the reason you
- 0:24Speaker 3: don't remember someone's name. Your brain deletes it immediately because
- 0:30Speaker 3: it's like you don't need it. It's like your brain
- 0:33Speaker 3: doesn't see the reason for me to remember this. So
- 0:36Speaker 3: you have to like attach it to something. So it's
- 0:39Speaker 3: like if you meet someone new and they say, Hi,
- 0:42Speaker 3: my name is Dave, your brain is like, okay, that's
- 0:43Speaker 3: nice and God if you attach it to like me, hi,
- 0:48Speaker 3: this person Dave loves. They're putting in quotes Leononardo DiCaprio films,
- 0:53Speaker 3: and like that's something else that you like. Your brain
- 0:55Speaker 3: will store it.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'm gonna call them Rio next time I
- 0:58Speaker 2: see it.
- 0:59Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a fact that or Dave runs
- 1:03Speaker 3: half marathons, like put a fact with it, and they're saying,
- 1:06Speaker 3: you'll remember it better.
- 1:07Speaker 1: You know what I would do, Actually, I would be
- 1:09Speaker 1: like Dave's Hot Chicken.
- 1:11Speaker 2: That's a restaurant. I like, right, good.
- 1:14Speaker 3: Sandwich and make an association.
- 1:16Speaker 2: Yes, I remember the name of Dave Hot Chicken.
- 1:19Speaker 3: After that, and then there's the old say their name.
- 1:23Speaker 3: So you meet Dave and then you say right away,
- 1:26Speaker 3: nice to meet you, Dave. And they said, remember at
- 1:28Speaker 3: the end, you say again it was nice to meet you, Dave,
- 1:32Speaker 3: like end of the conversation. Like, try and work it
- 1:34Speaker 3: in conversation a few times, they said, because your brain
- 1:38Speaker 3: is too busy and it gets anxious about making a
- 1:41Speaker 3: good impression.
- 1:42Speaker 1: That makes sense, So try to say it again in
- 1:43Speaker 1: your head, well, actually out loud.
- 1:45Speaker 3: Say my name, Say my name, all right.
