Episode 345 Published 2 years, 7 months ago
Description

This week I’m joined by my OBITCHUARY cohost Madison Reyes to discuss the psychological phenomenon of the bystander effect. In this episode we’re going over several stories in which victims lost their lives as some sat by idly instead of intervening.
