DYD Masters Recap, Day Four -- By Thundercat

To give you an idea how powerful his presence is, I'll share an anecdote with you from the seminar. At one point, an attendee got up and asked a question. The attendee was rambling a bit, and Hypnotica boomed out "STOP! What is your purpose?" The guy froze, and tried to answer, but again, Hypnotica replied "STOP! What is your purpose?" His presence was so powerful, the attendee started shaking and tried to reply. Again, Hypnotic said to him "STOP! WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE!" Seriously, everyone thought the attendee was going to cry. It reminded me of a scene from the movie Fight Club where Brad Pitt has a convenience store clerk on his knees with a gun to his head, and changes the guy's reality. That's what Hypnotica did. He pulled the guy's life purpose right out of him and gave him a powerful direction to move in. it was quite powerful.

Then, Steve Piccus took the stage, and the two men took the seminar through a guided visualization layered with hypnotic suggestions. It was quite a relaxing part of the seminar, and Hypnotica told a great story involving a hunter, a unicorn, and a lion that will be important later on in the recap. This was a very trippy presentation, and had I been high, I'm sure it would have changed my life. As it was, I just ended up falling asleep. Whether that was from the hypnosis or the lack of sleep the night before, I'll probably never know.

If you're interested in learning more about Hypnotica and Steve Piccus, and their form of radical hypnotherapy, you can check out their websites. You can find out more about Hypnotica at www.hypnotica.org and visit Steve Piccus's homepage at www.stevepiccus.com. I highly recommend you guys check both of these things out, especially if you have an interest in hypnosis and NLP.

So next up was the big coup de grace for the seminar, and that is the Real Social Dynamics crew! David D got up on stage and gave a big buildup for the guys, then introduced Tyler Durden, who told everyone about RSD and what they're up to and what they're about. He then introduced PlayboyLA, who took the stage.

PlayboyLA was probably the most profound of the RSD guest speakers. If there was a guy out there who didn't know anything about this stuff, he's have been wowed by PlayboyLA's speech. First thing PlayboyLA did was do an entire 10 minute set with nothing but canned material. It was extremely smooth and polished from one story to the other, and he performed it as if he was sarging an HB on sunset. He also spun an impromptu routine from the story about the hunter, the unicorn, and the lion Hypnotica shared with the group. It was truly a sight to see, and really set the bar high for the other presenters who came after him.

PlayboyLA talked about building Material and Routines. He said that at the beginning stage, you want to keep your material light and fun and short. For the middle game, you want to keep to cocky/funny routines for the attraction phase, but as you pass into the comfort phase, you want to make them longer, keep them funny, but they have to start demonstrating personality and give a glimpse into your life, while opening the way for you to start light kino. For the end game, he said your routines have to build a connection with the girl and lead them into a more sexual/seduction mindset, while you escalate things both physically and emotionally.

He said that you MUST build tension when doing your routines in order to get attraction, and to reframe everything the girl says so it's cocky/funny and you're leading the process.

PlayboyLA's talk was fantastic, and gave a lot of great information. It was a real highlight of Day 4. Next up, he introduced the one, the only… PAPA!

Papa hopped up on stage and talked briefly about how to be an effective wingman. Papa isn't much of a public speaker though, so he seemed a little awkward up there, but held his own well. Most of his talk was on lifestyle, and how the RSD crew lives their lives. He talked about Project Hollywood, which he said has been upgraded to Project Mayhem (a-la Fight Club) where they're trying to get guys around the world to get awesome houses close to their city's nightlife so they can life the life of the Pick-Up Artist. I won't be surprised if Papa's talk got cut, because though it was interesting, it shared little in the way of tips and tactics that would be useful for the guy who wants to learn to get better than women, so don't be surprised if it's not in the final product.
