In this powerful episode of Inside the Polygraph, David Goldberg sits down with special guest Justin Bocock — a retired homicide detective, former Uniformed Secret Service officer, award-winning investigator, and published author.

With over 20 years in law enforcement and more than 100 serious violent cases solved, Justin brings listeners deep inside the real world of homicide investigations. From his unexpected path into law enforcement to working high-level violent crime and cold cases, he shares what it truly takes to become a detective and succeed in one of the most demanding roles in policing.

This episode breaks down the reality behind the badge. Justin explains how detectives are developed through years of patrol work, reputation, report writing, and hands-on experience, not overnight like seen on TV. He reveals how cases are built piece by piece through evidence, interviews, and persistence, and why attention to detail can make or break an investigation.

David and Justin also explore the difference between Hollywood portrayals and real-life homicide work, including crime scenes, autopsies, and the emotional and mental challenges investigators face. They discuss how media coverage and public perception can interfere with active cases, using a recent Arizona headline as an example of how quickly narratives can form without full information.

The conversation goes further into the legal side of investigations, highlighting the difference between truth and what can be proven in court, the role of defense attorneys, and why justice does not always align with reality.

Justin also introduces his book, On-Call: Case Files from a Career in Homicide, where he walks readers through 13 real homicide cases from the initial call to final prosecution. The book gives an unfiltered look at investigative work, including mistakes, breakthroughs, and the lessons learned along the way.

Whether you’re a true crime fan, considering a career in law enforcement, or simply want to understand how real investigations unfold, this episode delivers insight you won’t hear anywhere else.

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.

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.

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.

In this powerful follow-up episode, David Goldberg examines the recent Capitol Hill hearing surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case and focuses on what he believes matters most: accountability and the voices of victims.

Drawing from his experience as an investigator and polygraph examiner, David analyzes what he observed during the hearing—particularly instances of deflection, non-answers, and rhetorical diversion instead of direct responses to direct questions. He explains how deflection works, why it is commonly used in high-pressure questioning, and how it can shift attention away from core issues.

Beyond the political theater, this episode centers on something far more important: the survivors. David discusses why victims of exploitation often remain silent for years, how power and influence can delay justice, and why true accountability requires more than public statements—it requires action.

This episode is not about party politics. It is about truth, responsibility, and ensuring that those harmed are not forgotten in the noise.

He discusses the role of power, wealth, and influence in shielding misconduct, and why accountability in cases involving minors must remain a priority.

In this episode of Inside the Polygraph, David Goldberg exposes one of the biggest misconceptions in the world of lie detection: the difference between real polygraph testing and the fake, fabricated versions often seen on television and online.

David explains why so many “polygraph tests” featured on reality shows, YouTube clips, and entertainment programs are not legitimate examinations at all. He breaks down how these staged tests are designed for ratings, drama, and profit—not truth, accuracy, or legal credibility.

Listeners will learn exactly what a real, professional polygraph examination involves, including the standardized attachments used in every certified test: the pneumograph breathing tubes, the blood pressure cuff, electrodermal sensors, and pulse monitoring equipment. David explains what each component measures, why proper placement matters, and how poor instrumentation or inexperienced examiners can lead to false or inconclusive results.

This episode also serves as a warning: choosing the wrong examiner can have serious consequences, especially in high-stakes legal, personal, or professional matters. David emphasizes the importance of working with experienced, board-certified, ethical examiners who follow American Polygraph Association standards and conduct examinations that can be trusted in real-world settings—not staged entertainment.

If you’ve ever wondered whether polygraphs are real, how they actually work, or why TV polygraphs can ruin lives, this episode provides the unfiltered truth.

In this episode of Inside the Polygraph, David Goldberg examines one of the most controversial and emotionally charged incidents to dominate national headlines in recent weeks: the death of Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse in Minnesota, during an encounter with federal agents.

This episode is presented strictly for educational purposes and is not political in nature. Drawing on decades of experience in the criminal justice and law enforcement field, David breaks down what the footage shows, what training protocols require, and where critical failures may have occurred. Listeners are encouraged to review the available video evidence carefully and form their own informed conclusions.

David explains why clear identification markings are essential during arrests and high-risk operations, and how confusion, fear, and chaos can escalate when agencies operate without proper visibility or unified command. He explores the dangers of multi-agency deployments when personnel with differing missions and levels of crowd-control experience are combined without strong leadership or clearly defined objectives.

This episode also addresses the role of leadership in preventing unnecessary escalation, the difference between controlled operations and reactive survival-based responses, and how mission failure can place civilians, protesters, and officers alike in danger. David discusses lawful protest, lawful firearm possession, and why early public narratives often conflict with later evidence when footage and eyewitness accounts emerge.

At its core, this episode is about accountability, truth, and the consequences of chaos when leadership breaks down. David urges listeners to slow down, analyze the facts frame by frame, and resist accepting spin before evidence. The truth, he explains, is not found in headlines—but in careful examination of what actually occurred.
