Daryl Davis is a really interesting guy. His episode on the JRE is really good and his stories keep you engaged. Even if you don't like Joe Rogan, you should still be able to enjoy his episode because Davis does the majority of the talking. [VIDEO]

The meme that you can't have a conversation with a person that changes their perspective and ideologies is a false and harmful one. Look at Daryl Davis's amazing work getting over 200 klansmembers to turn away from the klan through honest conversation. Is it easy? Of course not. But it's not impossible to reach people - it happens every day. [LINK] [VIDEO]

Successful persuasion stories are always interesting to me, but at over 2.5 hours I'm unlikely to watch this whole thing. Can you please list some key takeaways? [VIDEO]
