Joe Navarro

That was a clip from a talk that I had with Galia Winkler.

I got interested in talking to Galia when I read a post of hers on LinkedIn praising Joe Navarro and expressing excitement about his most recent book, Mastering Connections, which is approximately his 16th book, something in that range.

I'll read Galia's LinkedIn post: "Finally holding it in my hands, the new book by my favorite person, Joe Navarro.

Not only because of what he knows, but because of the impact he has had on my life.

He taught me not just to see, but to observe.

He truly lives what he teaches.

Muchas gracias, Joe, for continuing to share your knowledge, and for inspiring so many of us.

I can't wait to start reading." So that was a post from Galia praising the behavior expert Joe Navarro.

So there's things you can do to improve that.

You can... once again, read books like what everybody is saying from Joe Navarro and understand body language.

And then also there's these AI apps that are great with vocal improvement.

The only weapon I have in an interrogation room is my vocal tone.

And that's how sensitive we as a species are to, uh, our spatial needs.

[upbeat music] That's Joe Navarro.

For 25 years, Joe has served as FBI agent in counterintelligence and counterterrorism.

Now, he's a globally recognized expert on non-verbal communication and the best-selling author of many books on the topic.

Today, he's here to share some wisdom from his latest called Mastering Connections: Build Stronger Relationships with the Science of Body Language.

And because we are talking about body language and we have a luminary on the subject, Joe Navarro himself, it felt criminal to not include full episode video on this one, and so we've done so.

If you want to check out this episode on YouTube, you will find the full video, so you can actually see the things that we're, we're illustrating here.

But if you are just driving and cruising, listen, enjoy, and maybe drop by to catch the video next time.

I don't know if it's genetic, I really don't know, but I do think that they're born like that.

And there's another reason I believe that, Human predators have, and this is again not based on data, it's based on my observation and also Joe Navarro, who you've also interviewed, previous FBI agent, he talks about this too.

So you can cover the face in an image of them and it'll be like, you know, there'll be a smile and the eyes will crinkle.

you on the other half you've got a dead mouth and a dead eye so um really it's really it's really common i've seen it in hundreds of them when i've looked at them sometimes it's very hard to see and often you won't see it in all images because they know they have it so some of them will pull their hair across their face to cover it some will have their photo taken side on to cover it Some will have photos taken way back, so you can't see it.

I'm sorry, but you know, it is a very clear way of telling.

And I put it in my book.

I know Joe Navarro covers it in his book and you can see it in some of the high profile murderers as well.

Again, not in all photos, but like the serial killers.

In this episode, we talk about the well-known behavior researcher Paul Ekman.

We talk about Joe Navarro.

We talk about microexpressions, and we talk about the behavior-

As life gets busier, buying your next vehicle should get easier.

And even as that can sometimes be a bad and harmful thing, I think there is an aspect of that that can have positive outcomes sometimes, as I think it was this aspect of his personality that helped him recognize Wayne Simmons as a fraud and to then work hard on exposing him at a time when nobody else was willing to do that work.

And even though that work came with significant personal costs and risks to Kent, to put it another way, Kent is willing to lash out and harshly criticize people, and sometimes he will be making some good points that should be listened to.

Another reason I sat on this episode for so long is that it includes Kent saying that the well-known behavior expert Joe Navarro spreads bullshit and is, to quote Kent, "like Chase Hughes." Again, if you don't know him, Chase Hughes is a alleged behavior expert who is a con artist, and I've examined and exposed him on this podcast.

He's just an egregiously unethical liar who spreads false and exaggerated information about behavior and mind control and a slew of other things, and who has lied about just about every aspect of his own past.

Go ahead.

So Joe Navarro, one of my good friends and mentors, retired FBI agent, he wrote a great book, Dangerous Personalities.

He talks a lot about stalkers in there.

I was just double-checking because typically stalkers...

Go ahead, Robin.

And s- so, um, Joe Navarro, one of my good friends and mentors, um, retired FBI agent, he wrote a great book, Dangerous Personalities, talks a lot about stalkers in there, and I was just double-checking, um, because typically stalkers, um...

Yeah, so I would be, I would be hard-pressed to think he wouldn't have some sort of journal of what he's doing, um, you know, to Eric's point on this.

Mm.
