Ever wished you had a built-in lie detector? Forget the unreliable polygraphs and poker-face myths—real deception hides in the words we use, not the sweat on our palms. In this thrilling episode, we break down the psychology of lying and reveal the subtle linguistic patterns liars can’t escape.
From shady politicians to everyday white lies, you’ll discover how people unconsciously give themselves away with:
Fewer self-references (“I” magically disappears when the truth does).
More negative language (liars can’t help but sound bitter).
Overly simple explanations (the truth is messy, lies are too neat).
Convoluted padding (because fake stories need extra scaffolding).
Packed with real-world examples, surprising psychology, and practical insights, this episode arms you with deception detection skills you can actually use in daily life. Whether you’re navigating relationships, the workplace, or just curious about human behavior, you’ll never listen to someone’s words the same way again.
👉 Listen now to sharpen your BS radar, share this with a friend who “always knows when someone’s lying,” and start decoding the hidden truth in everyday conversations.
