  • Lies: Why People Lie and How the Truth Reveals Itself
    Mar 20 2026

    In this episode of Inside the Polygraph, David Goldberg breaks down one of the oldest and most universal parts of human behavior: lying. From childhood deception to life-altering falsehoods, David explains why people lie, how lies develop, and what actually happens inside the body when someone is being deceptive.


    Drawing on his experience as an expert polygraph examiner, David explains why telling the truth is natural while lying requires effort, memory, and control. He explores how the brain and autonomic nervous system react under stress, causing changes in breathing, sweating, anxiety, and speech patterns when someone is trying to maintain a false story.


    This episode also examines how lies evolve over time. What may begin as a simple denial or “white lie” can quickly grow into something much bigger when a person must add details, cover gaps, and maintain consistency under questioning. David explains why lies often collapse under pressure and how trained investigators, interviewers, and polygraph examiners identify deception through inconsistencies, hesitation, and physiological responses.


    Listeners will also hear a real case involving false allegations in a custody situation, where repeated lies escalated into serious accusations and ultimately led to devastating consequences for the person fabricating them. Through that example, David highlights how deception not only harms others but often destroys the liar’s own credibility and future.


    At its core, this episode is about accountability, truth, and the cost of deception. Whether the lie is small or life-changing, David makes one thing clear: lies take work, truth does not.

  • Polygraph Q&A: Pre-Employment, Inconclusives, Juveniles, and Common Myths
    Mar 11 2026

    In this listener Q&A episode of Inside the Polygraph, David Goldberg answers questions sent in from around the United States and around the world, covering some of the most common concerns people have before taking a polygraph test.


    From pre-employment issues and prior juvenile history to heart murmurs, inconclusive results, private testing, juvenile testing age requirements, and whether a spouse can sit in during an exam, David breaks down what really matters — and what doesn’t — when it comes to professional polygraph testing.


    Listeners will hear David address:

    • Whether past juvenile conduct affects a pre-employment polygraph

    • Why medical issues like heart murmurs do not automatically impact results

    • Why only the examiner and examinee should be in the room during testing

    • Who writes the questions for a polygraph exam

    • The difference between private, pre-employment, and law-enforcement testing

    • Why “inconclusive” results often point to examiner error or improper test formulation

    • Whether a prior failed polygraph can affect a future application


    David also emphasizes one of the most important lessons for anyone considering a polygraph: do your due diligence before choosing an examiner. Experience, training, professionalism, and issue-specific expertise matter — especially when the outcome could affect your career, reputation, or future.


    This episode is a practical guide for anyone preparing for a polygraph, trying to understand a past result, or simply wanting the truth behind common myths and misunderstandings.

  • Polygraphs, False Allegations & Winning Back Custody: A Conversation with Lisa
    Mar 2 2026

    In this powerful and practical episode, David Goldberg joins Lisa on her podcast, Been There Got Out, for an in-depth conversation about false allegations, high-conflict custody battles, and how polygraph examinations can provide clarity, leverage, and closure.


    When parents are falsely accused of abuse, the emotional toll is immediate and overwhelming. Children may be removed, reputations destroyed, and legal battles can drag on for months—or even years. David explains why stress management is critical before entering the legal system, how anxiety impacts decision-making, and how creating a calm, controlled environment is essential when someone is fighting for their family and their future.


    Drawing from nearly 25 years of experience and over 20,000 examinations, David breaks down how polygraphs are used far beyond criminal cases. From custody disputes and smear campaigns to allegations of abuse, workplace accusations, and past trauma, he explains how properly conducted examinations can provide detailed, court-ready reports—not just “pass or fail” results.


    Listeners will learn:

    • Why rushing to the wrong examiner can harm your case

    • How polygraphs can sometimes prevent cases from even reaching court

    • The difference between television polygraphs and professional examinations

    • When courts may consider polygraph evidence

    • How closure can change someone’s emotional and legal trajectory


    This episode also explores the devastating impact of waiting during custody disputes, the dangers of coercion and coaching in high-conflict cases, and how independent truth verification can shift the balance in legal battles.


    For parents facing false allegations, grandparents caught in custody conflicts, or individuals seeking validation after years of gaslighting or trauma, this conversation offers both hope and actionable guidance.
