  • The Great College Textbook Scam
    Dec 6 2025

    College students are drowning in debt—and it’s not just tuition. In this episode, we break down the hidden cost of higher education: textbooks. From $300 “new editions” to single-use access codes and shady publisher-professor deals, we expose how the textbook industry became one of education’s biggest scams.

    We’ll also explore real solutions—like Open Educational Resources (OER), rental programs, and how some educators are fighting back.
