Are you in a relationship or looking for one?
Do you have children?

Evaluate: Know what to look for; notice what's relevant.

As part of the process, you will observe some of the most famous people in the world through interrogator Greg Hartley's eyes. You'll discover what emotions these politicians, pundits, and stars are leaking through their body language and facial expressions, and what their answers (or non-answers) are really saying.As a bonus, you will learn how to use you own face and body to your advantage, whether you're trying to evade a difficult question, handle a sensitive situation, or just playing poker!
