Zimbardo talks about the Stanford Prison Experiment on the BBC Radio 4 programme "Mind Changers", which includes reminiscences from one of the experimentees. There's discussion of the conclusions to be drawn from such a study, including a psychologist who disagrees with the notion that virtually anyone can be brought to commit atrocities given the right (i.e., wrong) circumstances.
