868: Ali vs Tyson, Stanford Prison Experiment, & Elvis's Comeback

Sarah's a happy bunny, and it's a long time coming. We discuss the Mike Tyson v. Jake Paul fight, whether it was fixed, and why the slap should've tipped us off. Susie explains how his lisp, his love of pigeons, and the death of his daughter made people see him differently. We hear how the Muhammad Ali documentary showed how learning to withstand suffering can be the sign of a champion. We hear about the Stanford Prison Experiment documentary showed how this famous psychology research was flawed, unethical, and doesn't demonstrate the findings the researcher claimed. We learn how the design of Navy speedboats and the technology that allows them to go fast are causing the crews to get CTE, suffer addiction, and making suicide far more likely. We hear about a couple who broke up, but ended up back together after one of them got a concussion and forgot they broke up. And Susie wants to talk about how hot Elvis was during his comeback special and how the entertainment industry and his handlers made him feel powerless after his initial fame.
