526 - The Controversial Milgram Experiment

from Do Go On

You may have heard of Stanley Milgram's controversial 1960s social psychology experiments that measured the willingness of participants to obey an authority figure. This week Alasdair Tremblay-Birchall joins us to challenge the traditional narrative of these experiments and blows the whole thing wide open! Are people inherently evil? Or is this even more controversial that we were led to believe? This is the second most voted for topic of Block 2025! This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 15:22 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
