In this episode of Inside the Polygraph, expert examiner David Goldberg pulls back the curtain on how polygraph exams are portrayed on television — and why the entertainment version rarely reflects how real polygraphs work.

Without naming or targeting any specific shows or individuals, David explains how high-pressure televised environments can:

• skip crucial steps required for accurate testing,
• manipulate emotions for dramatic effect,
• and leave people publicly labeled without context or scientific process.

David discusses the human impact — how real people’s reputations, relationships, and mental health can be affected when their personal lives are turned into entertainment.

He also gives listeners practical guidance on:

• how to tell if a polygraph exam is credible,
• what ethical examiners are required to do,
• and warning signs if someone is pressuring you to take a polygraph publicly.

This episode isn’t about blame — it’s about education.
Your truth should never be used for ratings.
