    526 - The Controversial Milgram Experiment

    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!

    524 - The British Post Office Scandal

    Between 1999 and 2015, over 900 British subpostmasters were convicted of theft, fraud and false accounting. The thing is, they were all innocent and were the victims of faulty accounting software. This is an astonishing story of a year's long cover up and extreme miscarriage of justice, and the fourth most voted topic of Block 2025! This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 08:11 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
