Guards, Prisoners, and the Monster Within - The Stanford Prison Experiment

Fringe Beyond Limits

This episode of Fringe Beyond Limits examines the Stanford Prison Experiment: how ordinary college students were randomly assigned as guards or prisoners, how roles and authority quickly warped behavior, and why the study was halted after six days.

The hosts blend a clear summary of the experiment and its ethical lessons with casual banter, personal reflections, and lighter off-topic moments throughout the episode.
