I have noticed shows like this tend to be hard to find. There's just a lot of them and less replayability I suppose than narrative shows. For certain ones youtube actually has a lot (jay leno and craig ferguson) due to dedicated archiving effort by fan channels but idk about Kilborn. If I find anything I'll comment again

Because it's a way of controlling others.

maybe, just maybe, we don't need to engineer harmful situations to artificially "enhance" the bonding between groups of people? Maybe that's cult shit. Maybe the groups where it "went too far" are just natural steps up from the cool, normal, good experience you describe

I don't feel that strongly about the above, but saying you have to subject people to "unpleasant" stuff and haze them for group bonding to occur is a bridge too far. Just because you liked it doesn't mean thats the only way people bond. And to be clear, the bowling I was referring to would be more analogous to the bbq after in your example. Something fun and off topic to do together, with a little spice and competition to keep things moving, but enough social time to bond. Participating in a race or whatever feels a bit different than a hazing run designed to be unpleasant and used to gatekeep.

having one example of it being subjectively positive doesn't mean hazing is good or necessary in general

right? fucking going bowling is a bonding experience, not non consensual sadist ritual bullshit

I'm so tired of this corpo trash where the only unsaid growth strategy is throwing "bodies at it" in a completely wasteful con-artist way.

currently happening at my work. trying to push out the team thats been building their shit for 10 years and got it to the successful place that it is, in favor of interns and new hires who have no clue whats going on but want to use every new shiny object technology whether it accomplishes anything or not. So many people come to me with plans directly copy pasted from chatgpt for how to accomplish whatever task. No real coherent architecture being designed

yeah... I was going to say, the "I touched some fentanyl and almost OD'd" shit is fake, so this explanation rings pretty hollow. It'd be hard to accidentally take a pill, snort a line, or shoot up or whatever else. But getting free narcan from the feds is still useful to them if they're using seized or their own trafficked drugs themselves, or the other brutality-based explanations others offered

the fucking LA county sheriff's dept is even in favor of it... wow. Not sure how to feel about that one but I guess its just that much of a no-brainer
