Episode description
In this episode, I deconstruct the educational catch phrase 'Back to the Basics' as the dog whistle of idiocy it truly is. Some conservative government officials are trying to envision a system of education that costs less, allows for a high rate of success (even if it is an illusion) and rests squarely on the pretence of objectivity.
Choose wisely.
