#48 - Chester Santos: The International Man of Memory

Our guest today is Chester Santos! Chester is the “International Man of Memory”, also regarded as one of the leading memory experts in the world! After winning the U.S Memory Championship back in 2008, Chester decided to use his skills and help others with their memory. People in business, actors, politicians, and so many more have reached out to Chester to be coached and now he’s here, giving us a full breakdown on Rebuilding the Beast!

 

Today, we cover a variety of different subjects.

  • How Chester realized he had an amazing memory from excelling in school and decided to try out for the USA Memory Championship after scrolling through the TV.
  • After winning, Chester wanted to use the momentum of the attention he was receiving to create a business, but due to the recession in 2008, struggled to even make a profit. But then, he talks of the moment he realized this job could sustain him.
  • We also talk about the improvements he has seen from his clients and now the school he’s forming online to reach out to more and more people.
  • And finally, Chester puts our memory skills to the test by doing an interactive exercise!

 

I’ve always considered myself to have a terrible memory, but let me tell you, Chester is the real deal! This is a fun episode everyone, please enjoy!
