“Brett this most recent episode “bi-partisan conspiracy against parents and students”, wow! It’s like I’ve just discovered you back in 2012 all over again!! For what it’s worth, I, one lowly listener of many, am a big fan of this prerecorded format, audio clips spliced in with your commentary in...”Read full review »

“I just found out about this podcast and listened to my first episode today. Wow, what a breathe of fresh air this podcast is. So glad I’m not the one thinking about these same topics of how to re-think “education”. Keep up the good work Brett! Definitely will be recommending this podcast.”

“Bret covers alternatives to K-12 schooling and college. This show is mind-opening and I’ve really enjoyed learning about unschooling, deschooling, apprenticeship programs, and more. Plus it very broad, covering (true) self-esteem building, critical thinking skills, and history on how we got the...”Read full review »

As a student athlete and student body president, I had a unique view into what the “adults” were doing politically within the institution. While I was still incredibly...”Read full review »

“Interesting views but it's limited in its philosopphical thought - ironically which would not have been accessible with compulsory eduction. The idea that taxes are wrong it ridiculuous.
