This week, we’re delving into a time where it was NORMAL to feed lice with your own blood, all in the name of science of course…Typhus was ravaging populations in colder climates and poor living conditions. The bacteria spreads through body lice that live in the clothes of unsuspecting victims.

In this week’s episode, we’re confronting the medical experiments carried out at Auschwitz. These experiments are now recognised as some of the most extreme violations of medical ethics in history. Their legacy still shapes how we think about research ethics, consent, and trust in medical institutions today. As we explore this history, we’ll approach it with as much care and respect as possible, focusing on what was done, who it was done to, and how it reshaped the rules that govern science.If you’d like some more information on the details discussed, we’ve left some links below:https://www.bmj.com/content/313/7070/1448.fullhttps://nuremberg.law.harvard.edu/https://scholarship.law.bu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4515&context=faculty_scholarshiphttps://muse.jhu.edu/article/25973/summaryTHIS EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY JENNI! check them out here https://jenni.ai/?utm_source=soculturedpodcast and don't forget to use the code 'SCP20' for 20% off! 🫖 Of course, we’re back with a listener story for our laboraTEAAAAA.

👨🏾‍⚕️ Welcome to Season 7 of TWISTED.This season, we’re looking closely at the dark side of science. This week, we’re unveiling the Tuskegee Syphilis Study.This study is now recognized as a profound violation of medical ethics and a stark example of systemic racism in American healthcare. Its impact is still felt today in the mistrust many Black Americans have toward medical institutions.As we explore this history, we’ll do our best to approach it with respect, and a focus on understanding what the experiment entailed and its consequences.If you’d like some more information on the details discussed, we’ve left some links below:https://academic.oup.com/cid/article-abstract/40/10/1454/308400?redirectedFrom=fulltexthttps://eji.org/news/history-racial-injustice-tuskegee-syphilis-experiment/https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/tuskegee-syphilis-experiment THIS EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY JENNI! check them out here https://jenni.ai/?utm_source=soculturedpodcast and don't forget to use the code 'SCP20' for 20% off! 🫖 Of course, we’re back with a listener story for our laboraTEA.

⚡ welcome to episode 3 of S7, TWISTED! Today, we are talking all about one of the most infamous psychological experiments from the 1960’s, the MILGRAM EXPERIMENT. This experiment was all about exploring the human mind and obedience, but some people think this experiment took things too far… tune in to see what you think. We’ll also discuss some modern day takes on this experiment from famous illusionists such as Derren Brown. THIS EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY JENNI! check them out here https://jenni.ai/?utm_source=soculturedpodcast and dont't forget to use the code 'SCP20' for 20% off!😳 AND.. a listener writes in about her friend who won’t stop copying every SINGLE thing she does!! she asks ‘am I being single white femaled?’… a phrase that liv and taz regrettably had to google, tune in to hear their thoughts!!🗒️ SHARE YOUR LABORATEA TO BE FEATURED ON THE SHOW :https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FA... or email us at [email protected]🩷 Please don’t forget to share your thoughts in the comments, like, and subscribe!

👶🏼🐵 Welcome to Season 7 of TWISTED! This time, we’re diving head-first into the dark side of science — the unsettling experiments, the ethical lines blurred (or totally ignored), and the historical moments that make you think, “Wait… someone actually approved this?” ⚠️ WARNING: things are about to get uncomfortable. We’ll be tackling some disturbing and ethically questionable stories, but always through thoughtful, scientific discussion. And today we’re starting with one of the strangest cases in psychological research: the ape and child experiment — yes, the study where a chimpanzee was raised side-by-side with a human child as if they were siblings. It’s as wild as it sounds. 🫖 And for our brand-new laboraTEAAA segment this season, you guys are in control. You send in the questions — absolutely anything — and we’ll give you our brutally honest answers. No filter. No sugar coating. And let’s just say… one of this week’s questions involves someone getting a little too intimate with the histology paraffin wax. Yeah… It’s that kind of episode.🗒️ SHARE YOUR LABORATEA TO BE FEATURED ON THE SHOW : https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSftEuu6Xu6VWxurDzr6sKStnYCf4v5UrF47K7SH_rxUzlbFYw/viewform or email us at [email protected] 🩷 Please don’t forget to share your thoughts in the comments, like, and subscribe!

🧠🧟‍♀️ welcome to S7, TWISTED! In this brand NEW series, we are going to be exploring the DARK side of science, the horrific experiments throughout history and the ethics that got lost along the way! WARNING ‼️ this series will get uncomfortable at times and we will be diving into some difficult topics but will be breaking it all down through educated, scientific discussion. In this first episode we are talking all about the history of HUMAN HEAD TRANSPLANTS?! this involves two headed dogs, face transplants and a scientific villian?! LETS JUMP INTO IT.😳 and we are so happy to still be bringing you all of the laboraTEAAA, so grab your custard creams cos this one is CRAZY.
