Reexamining the studies conducted by Stanley Milgram and Philip Zimbardo, Dave and I discuss whether good people can succumb to vile behavior. Some themes explored are what characteristics allow people to resist, the need to socially conform, past trauma, and empowering the powerless.

In this mini episode, I discuss why it's important to overcome our present day fears and what we feel are 'necessities', in order to live a life that we are more proud to have.

I am joined with Kenny Nnoli, a graphic design artist as we discuss whether being a social person is always a good idea. We outline why it's important for us as individuals to build 'alone time' into our day, how to restructure our inner circle of friends, and how to interact with strangers. We also touch upon the theme of why our society classifies 'loners' as being dangerous instead of engines of innovation and creativity.
