This week, we run through history's strangest social experiments: from Universe 25's doomed mouse utopia to The Third Wave's accidental dictatorship, from Asch's conformity test to Milgram's electrifying obedience study, and the infamous Stanford Prison Experiment that spiraled out of control. And because we like to stir the pot, we ask--was COVID itself a social experiment on a global scale? Buckle up, because when humans get treated like lab rats, the results are always messy, darkly funny, and just a little too familiar.
