Description
You know the documentaries. What you don't know is how a smart, happy person ends up inside a group like that. Curious Hour brings expert-led science talks into bar settings, and this edition hands the floor to a social psychologist specializing in coercive groups. The talk covers the recruitment techniques that very different groups have in common and why almost nobody thinks they could be recruited. It also shows where documentaries simplify the story. That's 60 minutes of applied social psychology, no sensationalism, no judgment. Just sharp science, a leading expert speaker, and a drink in hand.
