Brad Beeler is a 25-year Secret Service veteran, federal polygraph examiner, and author of "Tell Me Everything." After serving on President George H.W. Bush's protection detail and training agents in credibility assessment and elicitation, Brad now teaches everyday people the same frameworks used in high-stakes investigations.

In this episode:

• Why your first impression is a cognitive trap (the Horns & Halos effect)

• The FEEL method for building real rapport fast

• How investigators use "bait questions" — and how you can use them ethically

• Why "me too" responses sabotage connection

• The counterintuitive reason treating criminals with respect gets results

• What body language and tone actually tell you (and what they don't)
