Education Gadfly Show Podcast

Congratulations, you found it--the Education Gadfly Show home page!

Each week, you'll get three titillating and occasionally sophomoric 90 second debates on recent education news (a la Pardon the Interruption), featuring Fordham's Mike Petrilli and co-host Rick Hess, free of charge. The maniacal Jeff Kuhner will try not to pop an artery as he erupts with his Education Outrage of the Week. And, as an added bonus, you get a weekly installment of Education News of the Weird, courtesy of our oh-so-strange correspondent Liam Julian.

Check it out for yourself--all of our previous shows are listed below. Click the link to automatically load and listen right from this page. It's like magic!

Bill Ayers is a terrorist
May 15, 2008
Mike and Rick chat about why we shouldn’t expect black kids to misbehave and all kids to attend college, and note that Marion Barry makes a good point about school choice. Jeff Kuhner is upset about goings-on Down Under, and Education News of the Weird is 20/20.
