サマリー
あらすじ・解説
We discuss college student debt, the universities complicity in the problem, and the return on investment of a liberal arts degree. We consider whether student debt relief is acceptable pandering or unfair wealth redistribution.
This is a podcast of firsts for us. We address our first listener question, John offers a listener trivia challenge, and we introduce a new, real, sponsor. As always, we call out our hero and whack-job.
