CD Vol. 23 Cold Reads
I am not going into too many details about the content of this interview, as I believe the above link mentions most topics, but I will highlight what I like about it and what I think could be improved on.
The main thing I took away from it is that
cold reads are like your trusting Swiss Army Knife - it's a multiple purpose tool and comes very handy when used at the right time.
Cold reads, in its various forms, are taught at
bootcamps but here you have almost an hour spent on that single tool.
Like in the recent interviews, the use of
cold reads is emphasized in terms of its usefulness in different stages of the emotional progression model.. and hold and behold, variants of it can be used in transitioning, attraction, qualification and comfort! Now, you don't have many 'tools' that are so versatile.
If you are expecting an avalanche of new
cold reads during the interview, expect to be a little bit disappointed. No, Savoy and The Don do not spend the entire time just reciting
cold reads after
cold reads for you to memorize and recite on unsuspecting women. No, they actually spend considerable time explaining when/why you should use
cold reads, what type/length of
cold reads to use, the different intended purpose of each type of cold read and most importantly the pitfalls of using
cold reads. Yes, there would be newbies who will use specific
cold reads and come back to the attraction forums and write "Oh, cold read X or Y did not work. What did I do wrong?". I like this recent spin on recent interviews, which are more educational(why they work) than informational(delivery of lines). Same thing for my Swiss Army knife, I guess.
A minor criticism would be that several longer cold read routines are quickly delivered. I had to stop and rewind the interview a few times to catch the sequence of words, as I am taking notes. I suggest you guys take notes. It helps to get the ideas sink in. Savoy goes over many of his personal cold read routines so fast that you need a second listening to get all the important bits. This shows that the interview could have gone way longer.
Nonetheless, several references are made to the Love Systems
Routines Manual, where many cold read lines and routines are described in greater detail. There is also a mention of a book that Savoy recommends you DO NOT get. If you listened to the interview, you'd know what I'm talking about.
Another minor con is that there are a few repetitions here and there. It does not disrupt the flow of the interview, but it does take precious seconds away.
Personally, I preferred the second part of the interview best. Savoy and The Don talk about the use of
cold reads in 'framing' and 'telling her about yourself'. The examples given are very eye-opening. Savoy shares his Rollercoaster game routine [which I am dying to use the next I go out] and to save the best for last, they tell you HOW to make your OWN 3-4 structure for a cold read routine. You can invent your OWN cold read so that it's original, congruent and rooted in your goals and identity.
