Intro:
Great episode about calling things out. You need to call what’s happening in real time. It needs to be funny or insightful, not lame. For example, if a hot girls walks into an elevator with you, theres 45 seconds to talk to her. A funny call it out would be to say ‘I’m trying to think of what to say to you right now’. It shows social intelligence and it’s funny. Something lame and not funny would be, ‘I’m really nervous to talk to you’. It makes her nervous and is weak. Calling out the elephant in the room (in this case, a hot girl walking into the elevator) is extremely effective.

- Dealing with the elephant in the room
I’ve always known about the elephant in the room but never had the courage to call it out until now. Realizng the potential of what lies ahead at the end of a conversation is endless.
The elephant in the room concept is absolute gold! I will be using this tomorrow on a date and in business on a daily basis.
