068 – Ethical Dilemma

This episode dives deep into some of the most challenging ethical dilemmas, from classic thought experiments to real-life survival stories!

We tackle the infamous "trolley problem" – would you pull a lever to save five people by sacrificing one, or would you directly push someone onto the tracks to achieve the same outcome? We explore the psychological and moral differences between direct and indirect action when lives are on the line.

Then, things get intense as we discuss the harrowing true story of the

Mignonette shipwreck (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_v_Dudley_and_Stephens), where desperate crew members resorted to cannibalism to survive. Hear how the legal system grappled with this extreme act of survival and the precedent it set, and whether the crew were found guilty.

We also delve into the incredible and disturbing account of the Uruguayan football team plane crash in the Andes, where survivors made unimaginable choices to stay alive for 72 days. What would you do when faced with starvation and freezing temperatures, and the only food source is human remains?

Would you pull the lever or push the guy?
Would you eat a dead body to survive?
What about the Mignonette crew – guilty or not guilty?
