  • fun fact: he is still on duty and probably got a contract to investigate in insider's recording room from someone.
  • "If she was licensed, she wouldn't be for much longer." Pause "If she was caught doing it"

    I was told by my step dad that if I ever think I’m being followed in a car, to turn left four times to see. Because no one else in the world would need to make the same four turns as you
  • @enegmatixerebro
    Veronica Mars just sitting up there out in the open during the day with a massive camera. Yup... Really being a sneak
  • @GrayBeans
    It seems in Hollywood the lines between Stalker and Private Investigator is very very thin
  • @gergokovacs1128
    If a movie would be made about his life he would be played by Mark Ruffalo Change my mind
  • @a_walrus961
    up next: former dead people react to death scenes in movies and TV shows
  • @timdunn0
    Appreciate the shade thrown at the "Ex-FBI body language expert". Especially since most of that guy's "tells" are signs of neuroatypicality or trauma. How many innocent people you think got dinged (or at least harassed) by the Feds (and other LEOs) because guys like that assume difficulty with eye contact means you're a liar?
  • @bdgjarvo2917
    Next : former president react to president movie.
  • He's absolutely right about nothing on the Internet being truly secure. Just be aware, that if you upload to the cloud, eventually it's going to rain.
  • He's absolutely right about people over interpreting body language. I have a hangup about eye contact because when I was young I was told it was rude to stare. Somehow, that developed into feeling like eye contact was equal to staring and it makes me uncomfortable. Some think if people cross their arms or put their hands in their pockets while you're talking to them, it means X, Y, Z. That's not universally true at all, but sometimes someone hears it someplace and they accept it as absolute fact. People are so much more complicated than such simple A-to-B equivalencies.
  • That statistic about women being right 96/97% of the time is fascinating, especially versus the 50% for men
  • I've been a private investigator for over a decade and it's refreshing to hear someone from my profession dispel a lot of the Hollywood rumors about what our job is. Excellent video
  • I hate the "looking away they must be hiding something" thing, social anxiety and the inability to make eye contact is way more common than people realize.
  • @potatomatop9326
    If he rates detective conan, he'll finish half of it when he's 800 years old.
  • @dawnchurchlive
    Fun listening to him, truly fascinating to learn some of the lines a PI can or can't cross. Hope they have him back to do more reviews, I want to see more!!
  • @Faceplay2
    I work is a investigator in Vegas. Hands down one of the best jobs you could ever do. One thing no one ever brings up is how on point you have to be with your reports as we could called to court for just about everything. Also Vegas PD really likes us. They got my back on more then one occasion.
  • Love how he gives the movies credit for trying to be entertaining but still gives a pretty honest score
  • I couldn't stop seeing Mark Ruffallo and George Lopez while watching this guy.

    In “Vertigo,” Jimmy Stewart stops in the middle of the lane because the woman he was following had just pulled up to his apartment. He then parked his car and approached her to have a conversation. He wasn’t really trying be remain unseen at that point.
