My Real-World Curriculum: What Students Actually Need to Succeed - It's 2025, Wake Up America!
Ever wonder why you can recite the periodic table but can't file your taxes? The education system has some serious explaining to do.
The Rock Bottom Podcast rips apart our outdated school curriculum and rebuilds it from scratch with the classes we desperately needed but never got. From "Money Over Memorization" (teaching you to read a W-2 without crying) to "Sell Me This Pen or Go Broke" (where you'll learn to pitch anything from cookies to content), we're creating the dream high school schedule built for future entrepreneurs, creators, and anyone who just wants financial independence before 30.
We tackle the hard truth that while American teens practice square dancing and build paper mache volcanoes, students in Finland enjoy no homework with better mental health outcomes. German 16-year-olds are building BMW engines. Japanese schools teach responsibility alongside academics. Singapore incorporates coding and startup culture into everyday learning.
Our reimagined curriculum doesn't just cover finances and entrepreneurship – it dives into emotional intelligence too. Learn conflict resolution without cancel culture, process anxiety while still finishing that group project, and master the art of looking together on three hours of sleep. Because let's face it: crying in the parking lot between AP classes is basically an elective at this point.
Ready for an education revolution? This episode is your permission slip to ditch the useless memorization and focus on skills that actually determine adult success. Share your dream class ideas or your real-life schedule by tagging Rock Bottom Podcast – we'll feature the best ones that don't suck. The real world's coming faster than you think, and quadratic equations won't pay your rent.
Peace, Love & God Above! :-)
What's up guys? This is DJ ESG and welcome to the Rock Bottom Podcast. I put two sentences in my main podcast description because I can't really talk about it. I'm excited about it, but that's all I can say. You got to look and read those two lines and then just bear with me for a while and Eric just shut up and just move on. Yeah, anyway, back to the Rock Bottom Podcast episode.
Speaker 0:The school they should have built, but didn't because of bureaucracy. Okay, class, today we'll be learning quadratic equations Again, because obviously nothing screams adult success like graphing a parable. Hell, no, not on this podcast. Welcome to the Rock Bottom Curriculum, where we teach you things schools avoid harder than your gym teacher avoids leg day. This is the dream high school schedule, built for TikTok stars, future CEOs, crypto degenerates, freelance badasses and the kid who just wants to move out before age 30.
Speaker 0:All right, I'm going to break this down into parts. Class money over memorization, because you can't Venmo your landlord a sonnet. Learn to read a W-2 without crying. What's a 401k? No, it's noton's robotic sidekick. Why your paycheck disappears faster than your will to live during finals week and budgeting taxes, rent credit cards and why you shouldn't buy yeezys with your fafsa refund. What's more useful memorizing the periodic table or knowing how to file your taxes? Answer it's a trick question. Neither is useful. If you live in a van down by the river, okay, class, sell me this pen or go broke. This isn't shark tank, it's a piranha pool. Learn to pitch anything from cookies to content, cold call confidence, elevator pitch finesse and closing deals without sounding like a disney channel villain. Real life assignments sell girl scott cookies without using there for charity side hustle breakdowns.
Speaker 0:Reselling jordans. Torturing Bye Vibes, not vices. How to process anger without throwing your Chromebook, understanding anxiety but still being able to finish that group project where you do all the work. Why? Crying in a parking lot doesn't mean you're weak. It means you've been to three straight AP classes and haven't eaten since 7 am. Conflict resolution without cancel culture. Teaching freshmen to stop fake smiling through trauma and say yo, I need help. Extra credit Apologize like a grown-up Not sorry you felt that way, but an actual, my bad, revolutionary stuff. You know what I mean? Okay, class. How to get your shit together. Motivational speakers won't save you. You will Bounce back like you got rubber bones. Turn rejection into fuel, not tears. Master the art of looking like you have your life together on three hours of sleep and no clean socks. Final project start something, finish something, don't ghost halfway through it If you fail. Cool, we build character here, not transcripts.
Speaker 0:Class social media is the new SAT how to build a brand before your school even has decent Wi-Fi. Instagram bios that slap. Linkedin profiles that don't scream. Help me Content creation for cash flow, not just clout, and make a reel. Go viral and monetize that shit before your school bans phones again. Bonus lecture how to slide into DMs without getting blocked. Social etiquette the remix, respect, consent and not being weird.
Speaker 0:Class in the meantime, I want to let you know in other countries, actual teenagers be like this Finland no homework, no standardized tests, actual joy Students call teachers by their first names. It's basically Hogwarts with better mental health. Germany dual track system by 16, you're either running a bakery or building a BMW engine. No filler classes like intro to worksheets. Japan they clean the school. Respect plus cleanliness equals top tier humans. Singapore, schools teach coding, startup culture and innovation. It's like if Jeff Bezos was your homeroom teacher, but less problematic. America still teaching you to square dance and make paper mache volcanoes Yay, class closing bell.
