Episode 92: Px3 Back To School Special!

08/15/20 • 109 min

Politics Politics Politics

Parents are making intensely hard decisions about where, when and how to send their kids back to school and if they aren't going back... what to do with them. Childless millennial Justin Robert Young is exceptionally unqualified to talk about any of this. Instead he has recruited a wide variety of experts to help discuss the issues around education in the age of COVID.

Co-hosting the entire episode is Tamar, the producer/booker for Px3 who not is not only wrestling with a 2-year-old and 6-year-old she is also the step-mother to a '20 high school graduate.

Discussing the options (or lack thereof) for parents is Jessica Calarco (@JessicaCalarco) an associate professor of sociology at Indiana University, and she studies inequalities in education and family life.

But what do you do when faced with those options? Providing the boots on the ground perspective is Erik and Carolyn Young (@YoungPodcast) of the Young Family Podcast. Not only do they have two kids to worry about they are also in touch with parents around the country and have the pulse of what decisions are being made and why.

Is anything going to change? Or will the changes the exist now fade away for lack of funding? Sarah Reber (Brookings Institution) and Nora Gordon (Georgetown) discuss the finance of crisis education and what we can and can't expect in congress' delayed COVID bill.

Episode 93: DNC Reactions. AOC's speech was weird but not because of the dumb tweets. Evictions

Thoughts on the DNC so far. It's awkward. Boy, do they want to talk to Republicans more than Progressives.

AOC causes a commotion when her only appearance was to second the nomination of Bernie Sanders during the roll call. This was stupid for a few historical reasons. Also... a conspiracy theory on why it happened.

Alieza Durana (@aliezadurana @EvictionLab) discusses the broader issues around housing insecurity and how big of an eviction crisis we are facing post COVID.
