In the summer of 1971, a psychology study at Stanford University morphed into a chilling demonstration of human behavior under the pressures of authority and submission. The Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE), led by psychologist Dr. Philip Zimbardo, aimed to explore the psychological effects of power and control in a simulated prison. What began as a planned two-week study unraveled in just six days, as participants—ordinary college students randomly assigned as 'guards' or 'prisoners'—descended into extreme and often disturbing behaviors.

Writing a joke is like taking a selfie, it takes 1000 attempts before you have 3 worth posting. Comedian Andrew Rivers is writing down (or speaking onto a podcast) his worst ideas. As creatives, we can be our own worst enemy. We come up with an amazing idea, write it down. 3 minutes later, we hit a dead end and throw the joke away. That could have been the new closer! This will be a place where I test new joke ideas, riff a couple stories and try to have some fun. https://linktr.ee/andrewjrivers
