Tasers
Season 12, Episode 6 · Aired 2025-03-30
Synopsis
John Oliver discusses whether Tasers are as safe and effective as the company that makes them claims, the broader effect Tasers have had on policing, and why you shouldn't test Tasers out on any of your family members. You'd think that goes without saying, but clearly it doesn't.
