Degrees & Disappearances

In this two-for-one episode, Brad tackles two topics that hit home—and the wallet. First, we dive into the absurd state of college tuition in the U.S., where earning a degree can cost more than a house (and that’s before the ramen and textbooks). Why is higher education so expensive, and who’s actually benefiting from this broken system?

Then, we pivot into some throwback territory with a nostalgic deep dive into lost media—those long-forgotten TV shows, cartoons, and news segments from our childhood that have mysteriously vanished from existence. Are they buried in vaults, or did we dream them up during a sugar crash in the '90s?

It’s equal parts outrage and nostalgia—with student debt on one end, and VHS tapes on the other.
