This is a solo episode where I discuss ethics in psychology, mental health, and medicine. I also review horrifying historical examples of experiments that reflect our collective values. I also make an argument against our approach to ethics and "CYA" focus rather than the philosophical discussions that formed this field to begin with. Think you know what really made the Tuskegee experiments memorable and what the Puerto Rico Pill Trials are? Check out this episode to really find out! Music: DJ DanceAlone and ProdLaurae
