Polygraph tests or “lie detectors” sound like the perfect true crime shortcut: strap someone in, ask the right questions, watch the needles jump, and let the machine tell you who's lying. In reality, they sit in a murky space between science and theatre. They don't measure lies, they measure stress, heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, sweat, and then a human interpreter decides what those spikes mean, which makes them dangerously persuasive in interrogation rooms and almost useless in courtrooms.In case after case, people have “passed” while hiding horrific secrets, and others have “failed” simply because they were terrified, traumatized, or anxious, not because they were guilty. That's why most judges won't allow polygraph results as hard evidence, and why investigators who lean on them too heavily can end up chasing the wrong suspect or pressuring someone into a confession just to make a bad result go away.

Lester Kiewit speaks to Ben Lombaard, co-founder of LieTech Polygraph & Forensic Services, about dramatic testimony in the Madlanga Commission. Policeman Karl Sander was previously told he failed a lie detector test over cocaine worth R200m stolen from Hawks’ KZN offices, which made him look as if he was complicit. Sander was in tears when he heard through the Commission, that the person administering the test had made errors, exonerating him. Lombaard has known Sander for most of his career, and discusses how polygraphs should be used as an investigative tool, and how it can also be abused by the corrupt.

How much can we really learn from people's words and behavior—and where do we risk fooling ourselves? In this talk, former Secret Service agent and polygraph examiner Brad Beeler explores the practical realities of interrogations, deception detection, statement analysis, and reading people in high-stakes situations. We discuss why confirmation bias is such a threat to good investigations, why many popular body-language claims are overstated, and how investigators might make use of subtle behavioral clues without becoming wrongly overconfident in them. Brad shares stories from criminal investigations, explains how experienced interviewers think about truth and deception, and offers a polygraph examiner's take on the controversial subject of polygraphs. We also talk about the importance of rapport-building and listening to what people are actually trying to communicate. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Rather than letting it go, Patel has responded in ways that are raising serious red flags. He filed a $250 million defamation lawsuit against Fitzpatrick and The Atlantic. He then directed the FBI to open a criminal investigation into the journalist who wrote the story. And now he has ordered polygraph testing of more than two dozen current and former members of his own security detail and IT staff. Hawk points out a glaring legal contradiction: by suing for defamation, Patel is claiming the allegations are false. But by simultaneously launching a criminal leak investigation inside the FBI to find out who talked to Fitzpatrick, he is effectively confirming the stories are true. You cannot claim something is fabricated while hunting down the people who allegedly fabricated it. FBI rank and file agents have no loyalty to Patel. Former agents have gone on record saying the level of contempt inside the bureau for Patel is unlike anything they have seen. He has purged roughly a thousand senior agents, hollowed out institutional knowledge built over decades, and the DOJ has lost close to 7,000 employees nationwide. The people keeping this country safe are being fired, overworked, and replaced with loyalty over competence.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers fresh intelligence from the war with Iran, explaining why President Trump's naval blockade appears to be working as satellite data shows Iran's key oil export facilities sitting empty and the regime warning its own people to prepare for major economic pain. He breaks down how Iran's collapsing oil exports, skyrocketing inflation, and growing layoffs are increasing pressure on Tehran, even as the IRGC ramps up attacks in the Strait of Hormuz and China continues moving weapons to Iran through hidden routes. Bryan also highlights growing cooperation between Israel and Gulf Arab nations, including secret coordination with the UAE, while warning listeners to be cautious about leaked U.S. intelligence reports that may be shaped by Deep State politics rather than solid evidence. Plus, Bryan turns to the redistricting fight in southern states, arguing that Republicans in Mississippi, Louisiana, and South Carolina are getting weak-kneed at the worst possible moment as Democrats push radical policies on immigration, transgender procedures for children, welfare fraud, and socialist control. He closes with good medical news on the Hantavirus, falling U.S. overdose deaths, peppermint oil as a possible low-cost blood pressure aid, and a new wearable "polygraph" device that tracks whole-body stress in real time.

Dave Spencer and co-hosts Kurt Bardella and Ashley Davis break down the latest battles over redistricting, rising gas prices, growing questions around Kash Patel's future at the FBI, and the early conversations shaping the 2028 presidential race. In this episode, the trio debates the fallout from Virginia's overturned redistricting initiative, whether Donald Trump is tightening his grip on the Republican Party, and what the latest court rulings could mean for control of Congress heading into the midterms. They also discuss rising gas prices, frustration from voters, and whether the White House can avoid political damage if prices continue climbing through the summer. The conversation includes predictions on whether gas prices could reach $5 a gallon and what that could mean politically as we head into the midterms. The discussion then turns to Kash Patel, including controversy around polygraphs inside the FBI and growing speculation about whether he remains politically secure through the election cycle. Finally, the trio debates Spencer Pratt's surprise emergence in California politics, the state of California's governor race, whether Tucker Carlson is positioning himself for a presidential run, and the broader Republican conversation around 2028 involving JD Vance, Marco Rubio, and Donald Trump.

The FBI is investigating the Atlantic reporter who wrote a detailed story of Director Kash Patel's alleged heavy drinking and erratic behavior. Patel even ordered polygraphs for nearly two dozen staff members looking for leaks. A second federal judge has blocked the Department of Justice from accessing data seized from Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson. Former Special Counsel Jack Smith spoke at a private event last month saying Trump has corrupted the Justice Department, and that it's become difficult to track the number of times judges have accused DOJ officials of dishonesty or lack of candor. A federal judge rules that the government can keep the ballots seized from election offices in Fulton County, Georgia. Plus listener questions.

On today's episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell have to share a little warning first: What you're about to hear today is NOT for kids' ears. Which is sad to say because it's about law enforcement officers and what they do at the workplace. In October 2020, an Horry County Police Officer, applying to work for Highway Patrol, was given a polygraph test as part of a pre-employment screening at South Carolina Department of Public Safety. The results of the test turned out to be so shocking that officials there reached out to the Horry County Police Department to let them know that they had a problem — problems that included sexual misconduct of officers, masturbation at work, drunk driving, sexting photos of genitals while in uniform and even potential child abuse. According to several sources close to the situation, this polygraph is what led to the outing of what is referred to among current and former officers as the Green Sea 14 — a group of officers, plus firefighters, who were having sex on duty and at police facilities. As Mandy and Liz continue to dig into what Green Sea 14 means, who was involved, how far up in ranks the officers went and why it seemed to be swept under the rug by leadership, today they share what they found in the investigation file of one officer and what they think it says about the department as a whole, as well as those with the power to fix the problems. Let's Dive in…

Kyle Matthews interviews Brad Beeler, a retired U.S. Secret Service special agent and prolific criminal polygraph examiner who served on President George H.W. Bush's protection detail and was named Special Agent of the Year for work combating crimes against children. Beeler discusses polygraph accuracy and how it works, emphasizing preparation, baselining, and that people “beat the examiner” rather than the instrument. He shares practical deception-detection and communication tactics (yes/no questions, delays, qualifiers, overreactions, body-language mismatches, and reading feet) and warns about confirmation bias and false confessions. Beeler recounts cases including a “king of counterfeit” investigation, Olympic protection in Beijing, polygraph work, and a transformative homicide confession, and explains his book “Tell Me Everything” as a communication blueprint for trust and truth.00:00 Truth Odds Explained00:38 Meet Brad Beeler01:34 Polygraph Dad Story02:54 Car Sales Tactics05:25 Everyday Lie Tells05:45 Yes No Questions12:56 Polygraph Book Origins16:38 Why Secret Service17:38 Hiring Marathon19:08 How Polygraphs Work23:18 Beating The Polygraph26:31 Counterfeit King Case34:01 Beijing Olympics Detail37:24 Crimes Against Children40:55 Online Grooming Risks41:53 Extortion And Cyber Tips42:39 Triple Homicide Breakthrough44:36 Respectful Interrogation Tactics45:48 False Confessions Risks47:15 Confirmation Bias Lessons 53:05 Why People Commit Crimes57:06 Facing True Evil Cases01:01:58 Secret Service Career Phases01:02:53 Sniper Threat Investigation 01:08:00 Presidents And World Travel01:11:23 Protection Risks And Complacency01:12:49 Reading People And Body Language01:16:56 Honeybee Confession Story01:20:47 Closing Thoughts And Where To Follow
If you've ever wondered what happens if you fail a polygraph, whether it can ever help your case, or why a test you take privately doesn't have to be shared with the government, you're in the right place.I'm Steve Palmer, and in this episode, I'm joined by Troy as we talk about the world of polygraphs, or as most people call them, lie detector tests.With all the legal myths and pop-culture legends swirling around, we wanted to cut through the confusion and talk candidly about how polygraphs are actually used in the legal system, why they're usually not admissible in court, and how they can still play a significant role behind the scenes—whether we're talking about the investigative phase, plea negotiations, or proffers.We'll swap stories from high-profile cases, unpack what really happens during a polygraph exam, and have some fun busting a few of the old wives' tales that tend to come up—like whether squeezing your sphincter can actually help you pass a test (spoiler alert: probably not). I'll also explain my own philosophy on when it makes sense to use polygraphs as a defense tool, and when it's better to steer clear.Here are 3 key takeaways:Polygraphs are mostly inadmissible in court: Despite their pop culture appeal, polygraph results typically can't be presented as evidence during trial. However, they do play a role during investigations and negotiations.Strategic tool for defense (with big caveats): Defense attorneys may use polygraphs to sway prosecutors, influence sentencing decisions, or avoid charges altogether, but the risks are significant—especially if a “stipulated polygraph” is involved.Importance of question clarity and an experienced examiner: Success or failure hinges on how questions are phrased and who administers the test. Ambiguity in questions often leads to unreliable results.Got a question you want answered on the podcast? Call 614-859-2119 and leave us a voicemail.

At Intersolar San Diego, Sean meets again with Eric Holvik of EnergySage (which was acquired by Schneider Electric) about the shifting U.S. residential solar market. Holvik says residential solar is projected to contract by about 30% this year and notes the customer-owned residential tax credit has expired, swinging the market toward 80–90% third-party ownership after a recent 50/50 owned-versus-leased split. They discuss how rising utility rates, time-of-use pricing, batteries, and virtual power plants may create new value even as net metering and policy changes pressure demand. Holvik argues the industry harms itself through misleading sales tactics, especially the “red line” commission model that inflates prices and contributes to installer failures and explains how Energy Sage improves consumer choice and pricing transparency, typically saving customers about 20%.

No one believes you. You've said it in every room. To every professional. To the judge, the GAL, the CPS worker. You didn't do this. The allegations are false. And yet — somehow — your children are not with you. There's a tool that most people in your situation have never heard of. It's not new. It's not experimental. It's legally recognized, it produces a certified written report within 24 hours, and it has caused CPS cases to be dropped and charges dismissed before parents ever set foot in a courtroom. It's a polygraph — and not the made-for-TV version you're thinking of. Lisa brought polygraph examiner David Goldberg onto the show specifically because false allegations are one of the most devastating — and most common — tactics used by toxic co-parents in high-conflict custody battles. David has administered more than 20,000 tests over 25 years, many of them for parents exactly like you: falsely accused, emotionally overwhelmed, and desperately looking for something concrete to fight back with. This conversation covers the practical reality of polygraph testing in custody situations: what it actually costs in time and emotion, what the report contains, how attorneys and judges interact with it, and — perhaps most surprisingly — how many people find the experience therapeutically transformative, not just legally valuable. About David Goldberg: David Goldberg is a state-licensed, advanced board-certified polygraph examiner based in Virginia. He spent the early part of his career in law enforcement, where he watched innocent people struggle to prove their innocence in a system that defaulted to suspicion. That experience drove him to open his private practice, where he now serves individuals outside the criminal system — people dealing with custody battles, workplace conflicts, past trauma, and more. With nearly 25 years of practice and more than 20,000 examinations behind him, David is also a court-certified expert witness. He is one of the few examiners in the country who takes a full-day approach to each client — never watching the clock, never rushing to the next appointment — because he understands that the conversations that happen before the test determine the accuracy and usefulness of everything that follows.

In August 2004, 21-year-old Katara Deboise Johnson finished her shift as an assistant manager at Taco Bell in Taylor, Texas, and drove home to her mobile home on North Dolan Street. By the following evening, her grandmother would discover her shot to death inside her bedroom.Her car was missing. Her cell phone was gone. Hours after her death, someone answered her phone and claimed to be Katara before laughter echoed in the background and the call disconnected.Her maroon Mitsubishi Lancer was later found abandoned at the Thorndale Community Pool in neighboring Milam County, miles from her home. No weapon was recovered. No signs of forced entry were reported. More than 50 people were interviewed. Polygraphs were administered. The Texas Rangers and Department of Public Safety assisted. Still, no arrests have been made.In the months that followed, frustration grew. Family members publicly questioned whether enough resources were being devoted to the case. The NAACP launched its own inquiry. Katara's sister Kenyatta revealed she had been questioned as a possible suspect, something she strongly denied. Police have never publicly named a suspect.Years passed. Her mother died in 2012 without answers. In 2019, the Williamson County Sheriff's Office took over the investigation. Authorities now believe more than one person may know what happened that night, particularly how Katara's car ended up in Thorndale.If you have any information about the murder of Katara Debois Johnson, please contact Texas Crime Stoppers at (800) 346-3243.You can support Gone Cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcast Find us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow Gone Cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

Polygraphs, often called “lie detector tests”, have long been surrounded by mystery, pop culture myths, and a fair amount of anxiety. While they're frequently portrayed as foolproof truth machines, polygraphs are better understood as tools that measure physiological responses rather than lies themselves. Hosted on Acast.

Am 13.1.1931 wird der Lügendetektor patentiert. Heute ist er vor allem in den USA im Einsatz, noch immer nach dem ursprünglichen System - und genauso leicht manipulierbar. Von Simon Schomäcker.
Brad Beeler is a retired U.S. Secret Service agent who conducted more criminal polygraph examinations than anyone else in the agency's history, interviewing thousands of suspects in homicide, national security, and child exploitation cases. He now trains federal investigators, intelligence officers, and corporate teams on advanced interviewing, influence, and deception detection, helping organizations eliminate costly communication failures, uncover lies earlier, and build stronger trust. His upcoming book, Tell Me Everything, translates high-stakes interrogation lessons into practical tools for leaders, sales teams, and entrepreneurs who need the truth to make better decisions and more money. On this episode we talk about: How Brad went from picking up trash at a softball field to interviewing inmates in a St. Louis jail, and why “tactical curiosity” about people's lives became his most profitable skill in law enforcement and business. What he learned from thousands of criminal interviews about why people really do what they do—and how that maps directly to understanding buyer motivation in sales. The reality of polygraph exams: what they can and can't do, why they're best seen as an investigative tool (not courtroom magic), and how “countermeasures” almost always backfire. Simple, field-tested techniques for lowering anxiety, building trust quickly, and spotting red flags in yes/no answers during high-stakes conversations. Why the shift to text and AI-driven communication is eroding crucial context, and how to protect the “human signal” in a world that wants everything faster and more automated. Top 3 Takeaways 1. The best interviewers and salespeople are “tactically curious”—they let other people educate them, especially about leisure, habits, and backstory, because that's where trust, dopamine, and real motivation live.2. Polygraph isn't a magic truth machine, but used in the right environment, with the right prep and questions, it can dramatically improve accuracy over human gut feel, which hovers barely above a coin flip.3. In business, just like in criminal work, you win more often when you judge the pattern (past behavior) rather than the persona, and when your questions are precise, calm, and anchored in genuine respect. Notable Quotes “We were basically selling jail—I was selling something people didn't want to buy, so I had to figure out how to get them to like, trust, and respect me first.” “Humans are really good at lying because it's a social lubricant and really bad at detecting lies—we're right only about 54 percent of the time.” “A good interview is like a good podcast: you prep hard, you lower anxiety, you let them talk 80 percent of the time, and you only step in to steer—not to steal—the conversation.” Connect with Brad Beeler: Website: https://bradleybeeler.com ✖️✖️✖️✖️

In this solo livestream episode, Jason Cavness walks small business owners through the HR laws you must follow when you have 49 or fewer employees. Jason draws from more than 30 years of HR experience, 25 years as a retired U.S. Army officer, and over a decade working with startups to explain complicated HR rules in a simple, practical way. Jason covers what federal government actually requires, why most HR mistakes come from confusion rather than bad intent, and how ignoring even one rule can lead to fines, audits, lawsuits, and massive headaches for small business owners. Using real examples, stories from his career, and questions from livestream viewers, Jason breaks down what every employer needs to know: overtime rules, payroll tax obligations, discrimination laws, onboarding requirements, union rules, ADA accommodations, pregnancy protections, military employment rights, OSHA issues, misclassification risks, and more. If you're a founder, small business owner, or early-stage startup leader, this episode gives you a straightforward roadmap for staying compliant and protecting your business before something goes wrong. Topics Discussed • Why HR feels complicated and why it really isn't • The real reason most small businesses get fined • Drug-Free Workplace Act and who it does and does not apply to • Audio monitoring vs video monitoring rules • Polygraph testing and the extremely rare cases where it's allowed • Military employment rights and what employers must provide • Workplace safety, chemical safety sheets, and OSHA basics • Employee rights to discuss wages, schedules, and working conditions • Equal Pay Act misunderstandings and why negotiation habits matter • Minimum wage, overtime, exempt vs non-exempt rules • Why you must pay overtime even when you tell someone not to work it • I-9 verification, E-Verify, and immigration compliance • Payroll tax responsibilities • ADA and reasonable accommodation requirements • Pregnancy discrimination and common employer mistakes • Genetic information discrimination and health insurance issues • Title VII Civil Rights Act protections • LGBTQ workplace protections • Age discrimination rules and why age 40 is the legal threshold • COBRA continuation for companies offering health benefits • Worker misclassification and how calling someone a contractor doesn't make them one • Why unions form and how employers accidentally trigger unionization • What CavnessHR is building to automate HR and prevent these problems Support CavnessHR CavnessHR is building an AI-native HR system for small businesses with 49 or fewer employees automated compliance plus access to a dedicated HR Business Partner.

Today's Headlines: The government is officially shut down, and OMB apparently spent its last working hours ordering at least 16 federal agencies to send out a pre-written email blaming Democrats for it—an illegal little parting gift to federal workers. With the shutdown, you can forget about getting jobs or inflation data for now (except from payroll firm ADP, which says companies shed 32,000 jobs in September—so, yeah, not great). Meanwhile, the Supreme Court told Trump he can't just boot Fed Governor Lisa Cook on the spot, kicking that fight to January. At the Pentagon, Pete Hegseth is rolling out strict NDAs and even random polygraphs for thousands of staffers, including top brass, in his ongoing war against leakers. And in actual science news, researchers in Nature Communications announced they've managed to create functional human eggs from skin cells in a lab—early proof-of-concept that could eventually transform fertility treatments, though no babies are being made from them anytime soon.
