Former FBI agent and spy catcher Joe Navarro steps inside the Honesty Box to answer your questions about spies, body language, lie detection, psychopaths, surveillance and what really happens behind the scenes at the FBI.
After spending 25 years with the FBI and becoming a founding member of its National Security Behavioral Program, Joe explains how intelligence officers operate, what makes someone a successful spy and how FBI agents are trained to observe and understand human behaviour.
He also breaks down one of the biggest myths around body language: whether you can actually tell when somebody is lying.
Joe reveals why polygraph tests don't truly detect lies, how he used behavioural clues during real investigations, what you should do if someone holds you at gunpoint and why trusting your gut instinct could keep you safe.
He also discusses psychopaths and malignant narcissists, FBI surveillance, whether intelligence agencies can access our devices, his experience working during 9/11 and some of the most serious cases he encountered throughout his career.
From catching spies and interviewing suspects to decoding body language and understanding dangerous personalities, this is an inside look at FBI counterintelligence from someone who spent decades doing it for real.
