The Polygraph | On the Deceiving End (TSB018)
We've seen them on TV, most notably on daytime shows like Maury, catching cheaters and making for over-dramatic television. But if lie detectors are so good? Why aren't they used in actual criminal cases? In this episode, we'll talk about the invention of the lie detector test, how it works and even how to pass a lie detector test. I’m your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind the Polygraph.
