    I'm a 75 year old grandmother and let me tell you, the sonya gene comes with the title - every one of my grandchildren thinks they are my favorite, I slip each money as often as I can and tell them still not to tell anyone but they are (each one of them) are the genius of the family and will change the world for the better. When asked what it is I simply tell them they will know it when it happens, they don;t have to push just do something you enjoy doing, (find your bliss) and all else comes to those who love their work..and are honest. It's a grandparent's job maybe our most important one in life.

    The best hour and a half invested for a long time. I was blown away by both speakers. Read many of Gladwell's books but embarrassingly had never heard of Brian Glazer. Well, oil me up and call me Susan, if he wasn't one of the most inspirational people I've ever had the good fortune to listen to. Amazing. I have told every person I know to watch this. Brilliant!

    Malcolm Gladwell always has something interesting to say and I have now been introduced in this talk to Brian Glazer also fun and worth listening to.

    Wonderful. It's like sitting in on two guys having a conversation that's engaging and you don't have or want to interrupt. This was good. I knew and liked Grazer, but Malcolm was someone I wasn't familiar with. He is terrific. I'm going to find more of his stuff. The guy is sharp.

      Bob Shelley Malcolm Gladwell is truly brilliant. His take on ordinary thinga is so extraordinary that he just makes you look at everyday life quite differently!

    One of the best 92Y talks because they came on with their own agenda. These talks can be sprawling and aimless but they improved the format.

    They should invent a thumbs up button with five thumbs just for Gladwell.

    A new favourite Gladwell talk. Got me interested enough to go to book store to check out Brian's new book. Will likely just buy an e-book as I don't think I need a hard copy to heavily markup plus it is easier to carry.

    A beautiful mind succeeded for me as an individual because I was taken utterly by surprise. The friend was real. But he wasn’t. It was the experience of being insane. Wow. Thanks. Well done.

    I have a brain injury and 09 in West Palm Beach on the boat accident and that was very public because the accident was so extreme I got ejected from the boat that I was ejected and a fisherman passing by salves my life.

    Going down-level to M.Jackson, you pretty much said. (and you cringed)
    That wasn't borne out in the rest. I am sure you regretted that. I only had this feeling after watching more and writing this. So I will leave this.
    I saw your respect for Michael Jackson. FML saw him as a pop star, dancer, etc. Then I wayched/listened with a concert, on tv, and I realized what he was doing was all about love.
    I was surprised. And grateful. I wondered why this was never written about, or why I never read or heard that from anyplace or anyone.
    (Hmm, I see the same type of feeling from you -Grazer- about Ron. We are human.
    BTW there is no answer to "So you would never have thought of X." 'You' didn't think of it. That is all you can say, with truth. (Good feelings too you.) I got this twist of mine from a bright Jewish father (tools), and est (stimulated, pointed out the value of truth at each step and being around Caltechers.)
    PS I really like your hair.

    The part about Michael Jackson was really poignant. Switching like that that Malcolm spoke of, really sounds like what happens because of trauma. You learn to switch between the different "parts" of you as needed. Can't imagine what it must have been like growing up with the physical abuse he went through.

    • @Yotrek
      @Yotrek Před 6 měsíci

      Agreed. I often think the higher pitched voices of Michael and Janet are trauma responses. Not just from Joe, but also from the public. But I am also of the opinion that he didn’t do anything wrong. The only mistake he made was to become a powerful black man, so he had to be taken down by power.

    Was curious about Brian's film and TV career so looked him up on IMDB. Just out of interest, because I am curious about these things, I looked up his films on the Bechdel test list and, although I've not done the entire list yet, none have passed so far. The test, for anyone not familiar, is a very very low bar about equity for women in films with three simple tests. 1. It has to have at least two [named] women in it 2. Who talk to each other 3. About something besides a man. i wonder what his Grandma Sonya would think about that.
