Jay Shaw demonstrates hypnosis techniques with Zach, showing how double-bind statements bypass conscious resistance and how arm rigidity signals deep trance. He connects hypnotic tactics to the charisma of preachers and comedians like Dave Chappelle and Kevin Hart, arguing that financial confidence and sharp presentation function as everyday forms of influence.

You tell your girl, hey baby, don't get mad. She's like, what the fuck you do? Because in order to not get mad, she gotta fire off the neural pathway for mad. Yeah. So even if she trying to do what you asked her to do, she's like, don't get mad.
Yeah.
And then when she get it, once you fire that pathway off—
Baby, be happy.
Baby, be happy. I'm gonna tell you some shit. Or like when I'm hypnotizing people, somebody like uptight and they don't want to be hypnotized, I might say some shit like Don't relax too quickly. Subconscious mind, like, what does that do? Huh?
What's that do?
Because subconscious mind does it.
That's like a double, double, a double negative.
Oh, even if I don't put the quickly on there. So when I put the quickly on there, the too quickly, that does kind of turn into a double bind. But even if I say you don't gotta relax right now, So I ain't say you didn't have to.
Yeah, but what that do? That sounds so weird.
You see how your— oh, it's ambiguous.
Yeah, yeah, it gets you.
And then it gets you like—
but you focus on the word relax, though.
Like, even if I go to shake your hand, like, bro, you left-handed or right-handed?
I'm, uh, right-handed.
Right, let me see your hand. I'm Jay. Yeah, what's your name?
I'm Zach.
Zach, okay, nice to meet you, bro. You ever been hypnotized before?
Nah.
Nah. It's a part of you wondering, like, when this motherfucker gonna let my hand—
Yeah, it's a part of you.
Yeah, it is a part of you.
Oh, I didn't even think about that.
Right, and that's what it is. So if I held it right here long enough, I could eventually slip my hand out and that shit gonna hang. It'll hang in midair. And then once it's hanging in midair, it's become— so it's simply because we say what assumes threats causes threats. And that's pretty much me.
So like my hand, like if you do that, you pull your hand away and I'm still there. It's like my hand is in a trance.
And that's, uh, like getting the arm to be rigid is a sign that you're in trance. When you're in a deep trance, what we call the Elman state, you like— your, your limbs become rigid. So what does it mean? Like, like just locked out in place. Okay, so that's a sign that you're in trance. If I can— if your arm is there.
Yeah, you gotta be because this is uncomfortable.
Very uncomfortable. Unless you're in trance. But if I Put you in trance and put that same arm out, you wouldn't even notice. So if I could get that arm out without getting you in trance, putting that arm out could put you in trance because what assumes trance causes trance. So if let me think of an example. If um I'm gonna try this shit at the club. Oh it works.
What's up, baby?
Watch pimps. Bro, you think pimps using all that? Well, baby, you know if you get with me, life can be free. Like you think they they talking in rooms and shit for Like I said, I thought they didn't like that. Like it sounds good. What they doing? They throwing so much at the bitch that when he finally go, just come with me and join my stuff. She like, just stop talking. Yes, okay. Like she like, just quit giving me information. Like it's overload. If I tell you a duck can pull a truck tied up, like.
Straight to a truck. Pull it up to pull the truck.
Don't ask questions, just tie it up. And he's saying all this funny as fuck in this way. But think about it, man. Like, we grew up on Lil Wayne. You hang around pimps, bro. I studied preachers. I studied like—
have you, uh, read, uh, Iceberg Slim book?
Yeah, I get it. I studied people like, uh, T.I. T.I., he wrote people one of two ways. Some people can listen to him talk forever. Some people can't stand to hear him talk. But some of the people I talk gonna be people who would listen to T.I. talk forever and pontificate on the words and the literature and how he breaks it. So I, I study T.D. Jakes, like I study Joel Osteen, I study all of these people. Why is it that Steve Harvey can get all the damn money to host Family Feud? I'm keep— like that, that type of shit carries me. What's the difference between Steve Harvey and Mike— they ain't paying Mike Epps Family Feud money. Like he getting money, but he ain't getting Family Feud money.
Right.
So like But it's still a different bag than Mike Epps can go get and Steve Harvey can't go get. So I wanna know why Mike Epps can get this bag, why Steve Harvey can get that bag, why Bernie Mac been dead for this long but he still seen as one of the GOATs. What is it? What's special about Richard Pryor? What puts a Dave Chappelle here? And why is Dave Chappelle— why is Kevin Hart like monetarily the best comedian but he not the best comedian? Like, you like it?
Yeah.
So those the type of shit that get my What is it about like the baby? Like looking at the baby, he's not like what you would call, what we would call handsome, but the energy that he walks around with, women be like, he can get it. Or you like a Teyana Taylor. She's not what we would call beautiful, but if she wasn't married—
Right.
But like looking at her, Teyana Taylor worked it. Well, if she had the same energy, but if she didn't have her energy and she didn't carry herself the way she carried herself, she wouldn't be seen the way she was seen.
I don't know, man. She got ass and abs.
She do. But it's the it, man. We done seen girls with ass and abs. She's not ugly at all. And if she wasn't married, like, I like her. I like her mind too. He a cool dude. If she wasn't married and she was like, hey, pull up, I'm breaking my ankles getting over there. But I could— she's not what I would be like, yo, she bad. She's not somebody I'd be like, yo, I'm wifing that. Like, would I hit? Okay, like, you, you see what I'm saying?
I don't know how far I would really take it, but if she wasn't Teyana Tate, you know what I mean?
Yeah, it's, it's the energy, it's the packaging that she presented in. Like, I was having this conversation with a group of dudes up there, we're talking about like gold diggers and shit. And I just presented that I don't even like me when I'm broke. Like, when my bank account look a certain way, I'm like, I'm turned off by me.
Yeah.
So I cannot— like, I don't think it's like— don't get me wrong, there's women out there who strictly like after money, but I think a lot of like what we call gold diggers is like, bro, you show up different when the account look a certain way. You show up confident, shoulders back, chest out.
You not depressed.
You more hypnotic when you got a bank account full of money. So you might think it's her money coming around, but we've all seen girls like wine and dine niggas who ain't got shit. Like, but he got the energy. Like, he, he got the presence. Yeah, he feel rich.
Oh yeah, he's making that bitch laugh till she hypnotized, right?
So like, and that's like the idea that I was just bringing to the conversation. Like, bro, Like, I ain't saying it ain't women out there purely after money, but I know me, I'm a lot more in my bag when I'm in my bag. Like, I'm— even when I'm hosting shows and doing live shows.
That's like what we were saying the other day, is like, when you, um, if you dress up a little more, you know what I'm saying? Like, we comfortable like this, you know what I'm saying? This is our, you know what I'm saying, we, we know how to walk and wear this, but you throw a suit on, shows, you know what I'm saying? Exactly.
Yeah, you, you, you feel different.
When you feel different, you act different, right?
When you act different, you get different results. Feel good, feel good to do good. Yeah. Prime Coach Prime. Like I love what he got going on over there too. But um, Dion Sanders like yeah, man.
