School’s out on our second episode of season two, as the hilarious and lovely Paige Wesley joins us to learn the dysfunctional and dark history behind the creation of the American public school system. Find out how the origins trace back to the Prussian model of schools that were setup specifically for physically beating unruly children, we learn how the oil tycoon billionaire John D Rockefeller personally orchestrated how the modern American school was set up as a means to train and condition factory workers, and we do a bit of a deep-dive on a few of Rockefeller’s worst scandals against the work force.
