Summary

Time for Fan Mail Friday, where we'll be answering your questions and dropping some knowledge and feedback to help you kick the weekend off right. In this episode: How do you get people to speak up when you're hearing impaired (and understand you're not flirting with them because you're staring at their lips when you're just trying to read them)? What can a suffering veteran with seemingly no options do to emerge from the dark place where he's found himself? Is there a way to make a transition to friendship after a romantic rejection? Parents aren't going to want to hear this as it applies to their teenagers, but sometimes college really can wait. A listener offers advice and resources to someone trying to leave a religion that intertwines with every aspect of their life. Is anger an effective long term motivational tool? Documentary of the Week: Vice News Tonight Quick shoutouts to Class-less in New Jersey and James Penn in Vienna (who wants to meet more AoC-listening locals)!

0:00.0	Welcome to the art of charm. I'm your host Jordan Harbinger. I'm here with producer Jason
0:12.7	of Philipo here at AOC. We of course don't have the answer to everything, but we try to
0:16.8	answer your questions here on fan mail Friday, which is one of my favorite types of shows,
0:21.6	Jason. I don't know about you, but it's cool to interact with people. And it reminds me
0:25.9	a little bit in a weird way of my live radio days on serious XM satellite radio where we
0:32.8	used to take callers, which I think is fun. And someday maybe we'll go back to that format,
0:37.7	but right now I love actually making people detail their questions. And I think there's
0:41.7	a benefit to having people think things out not in real time with you on the phone,
0:45.1	but actually sit down and write it. Because I think half the people come up with the solution
0:49.8	to their own problem halfway through writing. And then we sort of cap it off with a little
0:54.6	bit of how to tactical and or approval or disapproval of their current situation or the way
1:00.0	they're handling the current situation. Never underestimate the disapproval. That's right.
1:03.3	The disapproval works just as much as the approval. And I just want to say thank you to everybody who
1:08.5	knew I was in Vegas, MCN Thrive, which is a charity event that I do every year. And I got out
1:15.3	probably an hour before everything went down over there. And unfortunately, a lot of Thrive
1:24.2	attendees went to the Mandalay Bay to the one of the top floor of the foundation room or something
1:30.6	like that. It's called and they had a dinner there with a couple of folks like I don't know,
1:35.5	Grant Cardone and all those cats. And they were hanging out and I declined to go because I want
1:40.5	to get home and relax and you know, be a be a lazy butt. And they were trapped there all night.
1:46.6	It's it for eight hours with the SWAT team laying on the floor. It's I got a lot of warm heartfelt
1:52.1	messages from email on Facebook, etc. Even on Instagram where I recently am and I can I'll talk
1:57.4	about that later. I guess. But yeah, can you imagine being stuck on a floor for eight hours?
