Episode 213: The Secret Service Playbook to Build Trust, Rapport, and Influence with Brad Beeler
In Episode 213 of the I Dare You podcast, I sit down with Brad Beeler — recently retired after 25 years with the United States Secret Service and author of a game-changing book, Tell Me Everything: A Secret Service Agent’s Proven Strategies for Earning Trust, Revealing the Truth, and Communicating With Anyone.
Brad has worked in the highest-stakes communication environments in the world. He protected President George H. W. Bush and foreign heads of state. He spent 17 years as a federal polygraph examiner, securing confessions in major investigations and conducting more criminal polygraphs than anyone in agency history.
At the National Center for Credibility Assessment (NCCA), he trained thousands of federal law enforcement and intelligence professionals in credibility assessment and elicitation.
He holds a master’s degree in criminology, was named U.S. Secret Service Special Agent of the Year for combating crimes against children, and is now recognized globally as a sought-after communications expert.
If you lead a team, sell, parent, coach, or simply want to stop getting played by vague answers and half-truths, this episode will upgrade how you communicate immediately.
Press play and take notes, because you’re going to walk into that conversation with a new level of clarity, confidence, and control.
