Welcome to the show. I'm Jordan Harbinger. As always, I'm here with producer Jason DeFilippo.

On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets and skills of the world's

most brilliant and interesting people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that

you can use to impact your own life and those around you. I want to help you see the

Matrix when it comes to how these amazing people think and how they behave. We want you

to become a better thinker as well. If you're new to the show, we've got episodes with

CEOs, spies, athletes, authors, thinkers, performers, as well as toolboxes for negotiation, public

speaking, body language persuasion, influence, etc. So if you're smart and you like to learn

and improve, then you'll be at home right here with us. Today's episode was a lot of fun.

None other than Dennis Quaid here in the studio today. We grew up with him basically. His

career spans multiple generations and he's still at it. We spend a fair bit of time discussing

how Dennis accesses his emotions when acting, how he draws from his own life experience

to become someone else. I also wanted to know how and when he stays in character, especially

when he's playing someone dysfunctional, a lot of control or abusive. This is a really

cool look inside the mind, life and process of one of the most well-known artists here

in Hollywood. If you want to know how I manage to book all these amazing guests for the

show, well check out our course, 6 Minute Networking. It's a free course that teaches you how
