Am I a Good Liar? How to Tell If Someone Is Lying to You
from Wildly Appropriate w/ Krissy Marsh · host Krissy Marsh
How do you spot a liar? A private investigator spent six months and found nothing. Krissy caught him with one $25 bank transaction.Krissy has trusted her gut her whole life. She calls it her smoke detector... where there's smoke, there's fire. It pulled her out of a taxi in Bali before the meter even started, and it is the same instinct that told her girlfriend something was off in her marriage long before there was any proof.This one is all about liars, and how to spot a liar when they are good at it. Because the frightening truth is that a good liar tells a lot of truth. Her friend's husband really was going to Canada. He really did need a break. He just never mentioned he was taking his girlfriend. A private investigator came back after six months with nothing. Then one $25 transaction to an unusual name, one Google search, and one phone call to a bar in Brisbane unravelled the whole thing.Krissy also gets into the small-lie test she raised her kids on (if someone lies about being at their mum's house, they can lie about anything!!), why decades of trust make us silence our own smoke detector, the friends who lie about the stupid stuff, double lives that DNA tests keep exposing, and the one rule that holds her family together: you get one chance to tell the truth.And she is about to play the ultimate lying game on The Traitors... consider this her warm up. Is she a good liar? You will have to watch and find out.⏱️ Chapters00:00 The smoke detector gut feel00:49 Two taxis I escaped03:55 Catching a cheating husband07:07 Why we suppress the gut feel10:20 Small lies, big liars13:03 Double lives and DNA tests16:13 The Traitors and moving on🔗 LinksWant the deeper cut?
