Have you ever wondered why so many major retail chains have filed for bankruptcy or closed locations recently? Toys r Us, Baskin Robbins, J Crew, Hertz, 24 Hour Fitness, Dunkin Donuts…. It’s pretty much an entire mall. It’s not just because of the pandemic:
There’s a shadowy mafia that has been ripping off the entire US economy while making themselves rich. Really rich. This group is responsible for bankrupting hospitals, your favorite retail chains and even ripping off Taylor Swift. They’re called Private Equity. And your company might be next. We took a deep dive into the shocking strategies that the Private Equity Mafia uses.
Hope is not all lost though. There are things we can do to fix these problems. Transparency, for one:
Enter the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, the federal agency charged with stopping bad actors from manipulating the markets. The SEC, led by Biden appointee Gary Gensler, has proposed changing their rules so that private equity firms would have to, you know, tell the truth about their returns of their funds, and disclose transparent information about all the fees that they charge. Obviously the lobbying groups representing private equity firms are up in arms about the idea that they might have to disclose even some basic information to their investors. Meanwhile in Congress, the federal Stop Wall Street Looting act, introduced in 2021, would limit the amount of debt used in buyouts, increase transparency, and close tax loopholes.
And what can you do, yourself? Well, unionize. A unionized workforce is better protected against a leveraged buyout.

Elon Musk spent decades building something big: himself. Musk managed to sell the world on a persona: the visionary genius billionaire working his hardest to save the the world. And it’s worked: the myth of Elon Musk has made him a lot of money. But what did it cost to get him there? And what does it mean that the richest man in the world build that wealth purely on an image of himself? The Class Room took a deep look into Musk’s entire career: court documents, SEC filings, and interviews to break down the story Elon tells about himself and how he leveraged it to accumulate wealth and power.

On this episode we cover the history of Captain Power and the controversy surrounding it’s initial run in 1988.
Born from the ashes that were the Masters of the Universe movie and married to advanced light gun technology, it was a show aimed at kids and adults that struggled to get either on board.
Rising from the ashes again with a reboot planned in 2016, legal troubles have derailed those plans.

The Dodo has become the warmest, ‘cuddliest’ corner of the internet. They’re a never-ending stream of adorable, clickable, animal content. But do they really have the animals’ best interests at heart? They’ve promoted unsafe animal interactions and inappropriate pets, and they source themselves consistently. The Dodo should remain extinct: they aren’t the news site they claim to be, but a clickable brand to earn money.

Yeah, that’s right. The comments are off, and you shouldn’t feel weird about that. My audience is pretty cool, actually, but it’s the EVERYONE ELSE that has a problem with that.

Star Trek: The Next Generation (TNG) is an American science fiction television series created by Gene Roddenberry. It originally aired from September 28, 1987 to May 23, 1994 in syndication, spanning 178 episodes over seven seasons.
Star Trek: The Next Generation proved that the Star Trek brand could thrive without the original cast but the fights and the firings almost derailed it before it got going…
Star Trek: The Next Generation was a landmark in TV history not just for the quality of the show but for how it reshaped the landscape.
