How much can voters learn from a politician's body language? From facial expressions and hand gestures to posture and eye contact, non-verbal communication plays a powerful role in shaping public perceptions of political leaders.

In this episode, Professor Stephen Coleman explores how politicians communicate beyond words and asks how body language influences trust, leadership and voter decision-making. Joining him is Erik Bucy, Professor of Strategic Communication at Texas Tech University, whose research examines visual political communication and media influence.
