🔥 Persuasion Club — Episode 29 | Win Bigly Part 5
The stars have aligned.
We’re celebrating International Cat Day (yes, we know it was yesterday) AND discussing Pussygate in the same episode.
It doesn’t get any better than this, folks. 🐈
Tonight, Kevin and Steven continue their deep dive into Scott Adams’ Win Bigly with “How a Trained Persuader Evaluates Scandals.”
Why do some political scandals destroy candidates while others seem to bounce right off? Adams looks at the 2016 Trump campaign through his Persuasion Filter, including:
🔥 Trump’s Taxes
🔥 KKK / David Duke Slow Denial
🔥 Judge Curiel
🔥 Khan Family Controversy
🔥 Access Hollywood / “Pussygate”
We’ll break down Adams’ argument, revisit these controversies through the lens of persuasion, and ask the bigger question: Can you predict which scandals will matter—and which ones won’t—by understanding how people actually make decisions?
Plus, because the calendar apparently has a sense of humor, we’ll give International Cat Day the Persuasion Club treatment. 🐈

Hey folks, we're back on Locals and it feels really good to be here again. We haven’t even hit the six-month mark yet, but man, we’ve already put out twenty episodes. We went deep with twelve episodes on Robert Cialdini’s book, we’re currently tearing through Win Bigly, and we built our own live game "Who Wants to Be a Persuader" that we play on the show. We’ve also done persuasion duels, tech talks, and a bunch more. It’s been a wild, fun ride building this from scratch.
Even though we love being part of the Scott Adams community, we’re working hard to stand on our own two feet and create something original. That’s why we’re back on Locals, to connect with you directly, share behind-the-scenes stuff, and give you exclusive content you won’t get on X, YouTube, or Rumble.
And here’s something we’re really pumped about: we’re actively working on a book about persuasion that focuses specifically on Scott Adams and his techniques. We can’t wait to share more about...
