Originally Released July 20, 2017 I've always been interested in three psychology experiments that study human behavior. They are the Asch Experiment, the Milgram Experiment, and the Stanford Prison Experiment. Dave Brodbeck joins me to actually talk about the field that he actually teaches (he also teaches statistics, which we've discussed) at Algoma University is Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. We also discuss how the latter two of these experiments shaped research ethics today. Wikipedia Links:Asch Conformity ExperimentsMilgram ExperimentStanford Prison Experiment

On June 4, 1974, the Cleveland Indians hosted the Texas Rangers at  Cleveland Stadium in a rematch from the previous week. With Cleveland  media fanning the flames all week long, and a ten cent beer promotion  the night of the first game of the series, something was bound to  happen...and it did. Paul Jackson's article, "The Night Beer And Violence Bubbled Over In Cleveland"
In this episode, I talk about the most popular question I've been  asked about Cleveland. I explain the reasons why the river caught fire  and the far-reaching results of the last fire.
This is a repost of a previously published episode. Welcome to a new series here in the Club. This series is just me, talking about the history, the stories, and the oddities that make Cleveland what it is. It's a series that's a long time coming and the project itself has gone through several incarnations before I finally decided on this. The episodes won't be terribly long, maybe 20 minutes at the most, but I hope to tell you the listener why you should give Cleveland another chance.

Jasen and Steve discuss a real treat of a video that aired somewhere on TV in 1988. Hosted by Mike Farrell, this show tries and fails to prove that UFOs are aliens and they have visited us. Steve Cloutier on Twitter Illuminati Social Club on Twitter UFO Coverup? Live! on YouTube

On this episode, Oliver Rockside joins me to talk about a controversial figure in the American politics. Oliver Rockside on Twitter Illuminati Social Club on Twitter
I used to be somewhat of a conspiracy theorist. I believed primarily in the alien coverup from the 1940s and believed that we were put on this planet until we could rejoin the rest of the alien community peaceably. Heavy D joined me as we also discuss woo and the conversation goes a bit off the rails for a little while.
Penelope joins me to discuss a group of people known as Sovereign Citizens. Their ideas and tactics are bananapants, but they can get violent and insane. Click here for the Penelope's slideshow
In this episode, Dr. Steve Cloutier joins me to discuss why people tend to listen more to celebrities than to people who are experts in fields being discussed. We also meander off-topic as is custom on this podcast. Steve Cloutier on Twitter
Stephanie joins me for a discussion about a church in our neck of the woods called Holy Love Ministries. It is here that you can apparently see visions of the Virgin Mary and possibly even Jesus. There's good stuff about this church and not-so-good stuff and we try to maintain a neutral position. We can also say that this isn't a cult. Stephanie on Twitter
