From Phonics to Profiteering: The Failure of the K12 Education System
Description
Welcome to Deep Dives in the Shallow End, where host Donovan drags the American K–12 education system out behind the gym and gives it the wedgie it so richly deserves. In From Phonics to Profiteering, we explore how a public good became a private grift—ripping through the cobwebbed history, savage inequalities, test-mania, teacher burnout, corporate vultures, and tech-fueled delusions that turned classrooms into pressure cookers and profit centers.
It’s a wild, weird, and wickedly researched takedown filled with dark comedy, uncomfortable truths, and the occasional emotional support peacock. So sharpen your pencils—metaphorically, of course—and prepare to get schooled.
