Secretary of Education Linda McMahon promises Americans an A1 education as she confuses A.I. with a popular barbecue sauce brand, Dr. Tim Slekar makes his triumphant return to the show after getting his pearly whites repaired, and Dr. Johnny Lupinacci takes a walk on the bright side by pointing out some of the opportunities presented by a rapidly shifting education landscape.
With higher education facing a turbulent sea of challenges and threats, Tim and Johnny discuss the way that declining demographics and economic austerity are forcing institutions of higher learning to either adapt or die.
And producer Jakob does a great George W. Bush impression.
