Ever locked eyes with someone who clearly knows your entire life story... and you can’t even remember their first name?

Yeah. We've all been there.

In this laugh-out-loud episode of The Advice You Didn’t Know You Needed, Drew breaks down the life-saving art of Mastering the Polite Nod — the ultimate survival skill for awkward social encounters.

✅ Fake it like a pro when you blank on someone's name
✅ Use Jedi mind tricks to make them reveal their identity
