This is by far one of the best interviews with Chris. I've seen lots of them and basically almost all are alike. Repetition of the same theme. Boy, he must have patience to say on and on these same stories. Here it's different, he looks more serious and engaged in conversation, even if a little tired. Good stuff!
Thank you! Great interview, that also brings a different set of questions and approach Chris Voss from a different angle than most of his interviews! Thank you so much! :)
Chris’s Voss is a smooth, elegant, kind hearted, Genius….. Did yahll see how he saved this guy from having a bummy, last impression? With that last statement, WOW, classic. “Last impressions are lasting impressions!” My first time being on the channel, I enjoyed the information THANKS🙌🏾
I’ve been working in litigation law for ten years. I have no issue negotiating with clients on “price” because it’s a retainer fee and then if we go over, then we go over and we tell them the fees for each fees down to the cent. I can hourly bill for you.
Interviewing Voss is the easiest job on the planet - let the man talk!! Great work letting him sound off on his passion and expertise. Would it be crazy for someone to ask him the follow up scenario in his system, from: "how am i supposed to do THAT?" "That's your problem!" [Then what?]
He answers that question by basically saying that tells you what kind of person they are, followed by, "I'm sorry, you've been very generous, that just doesn't work for me."
This has to be one of the most frustrating interviews I’ve ever watched, and definitely the most frustrating one featuring Chris Voss. You really blew it here. You had Chris Voss-one of the best in the business-on your channel for free! All you needed to do was let him speak, uninterrupted, and you could have raked in millions of views, countless new subscribers, and engagement through the roof. Instead, you constantly interrupted him, often when he was at his most insightful. It felt like you weren’t truly listening-you were just waiting for your turn to talk. Do yourself and your audience a favor: take an Improv class or some training in active listening. It will make a world of difference for your future interviews. 🙏
I'm sorry you felt frustrated and that I blew it. I'll be okay and so will you. I actually had a great time and Chris and I became fast friends because he was so impressed with me in this interview. I've also had literally hundreds of people leave comments, DM etc. saying how much they loved this interview. Perception is a funny thing, isn't it?
Showing up to a negotiation meeting with Chris Voss, the only option is to ask for an autograph and then let the other person do the negotiating. You’ll sleep better and enjoy the learning experience.😂

This man lost me at the fact that he has no idea what happens “after!” someone is in custody. He has no real idea of sales as he’s never been in sales. This is a policeman that has done interrogations. Good for him. Glad he’s calm.
@@dyltrade2055not at all. Me being against excessive amount of ads does not mean I am against monetization in any way, shape or form. Heck, I even bought a copy of Chris Voss' "Never Split The Difference" after seeing this.
This interview would have had better continuity if Chris could finish a sentence without the interviewer trying to show he knew what he was going to say.
Omg this is upsetting me. You poor soul. I watched this and you need someone to manage everything for you. You need someone to be client based and WOW that client. Bring them in. You are the end. That’s it. I’m with the lawyers! I’m the law clerk and lawyers will NEVER KILL IT!!!
It's amazing how this guy got a really good NYC accent even though he did not grow up there. He's from Ohio. I suppose you win by default when you go in with a nice NYC accent lol! It's a powerful tool!
This is truly great interview. I watched many with Chris and this one was easy to digest and soooo many great insights in comparison. Thank you so much Bryan 🤍
Chris’s Voss is a smooth, elegant, kind hearted, Genius….. Did yahll see how he saved this guy from having a bummy, last impression? With that last statement, WOW, classic. “Last impressions are lasting impressions!” My first time being on the channel, I enjoyed the information THANKS🙌🏾

I don’t care whatever anyone says. This is a great and important video
thanks?
You did a great job with your questions for Chris. Like you and I were in sync, had each of your questions in mind. Nicely done!
This is a GREAT INTERVIEW! I appreciate how vulnerable you were!
Epic distinctions between empathy vs sympathy
Magic in the morning still rocking it
Thanks for sharing that
I’ve been working in litigation law for ten years. I have no issue negotiating with clients on “price” because it’s a retainer fee and then if we go over, then we go over and we tell them the fees for each fees down to the cent. I can hourly bill for you.
But you don’t do that in a settlement negotiation, do you?
Chris Voss is the GOAT 🐐
Loved this! I'm reading Never Split the Difference at the moment, and this video was a helpful addition.
Glad it was helpful! Lots more video in the library if you want to see what else is here.

Fell down a rabbit hole of your video. I gotta say, seeing the growth from just 2yrs ago is extremely inspiring. *Subscribed*
thank you!
19:20 So... Solid Snake wasn't being dumb when he asked things, he was just taking hidden information.
Great interview, you both did amazing, so many great points - That was dope!
Much appreciated!
This is insanely good.

Dropped a like for not being presumptuous! (You were right tho!)
