Make It Make Sense: College Predators on Loans

from Let's Get Naked · host Anne Karber

 This episode breaks down the hard truth behind America’s predatory college system and the debt crisis drowning an entire generation. Anne and Cameron expose how universities sold teenagers a dream they could never deliver—pushing six-figure loans onto kids who aren’t even old enough to legally rent a car. They unpack why degrees so often fail to translate into real careers, how billion-dollar institutions walk away clean, and why taxpayers and graduates are left holding the bill. From useless majors to political finger-pointing to the collapse of real career readiness, this conversation pulls back the curtain on a system built on overpromising and underdelivering. If you’ve ever questioned whether college debt makes sense—or who should actually be paying for the fallout—this episode will hit home. This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma. But just so we're super clear: I’m not a licensed therapist, mental health professional, or anything close. I’m just a human sharing stories, lessons, and life hacks based on personal experience and a whole lot of curiosity.So, while you might find some golden nuggets here, this is not therapy and should never replace professional mental health care. If you or someone you love is going through it, please—seriously—reach out to a licensed therapist or healthcare provider. You deserve the real deal.Need Help Now?Here are a few amazing resources:·         988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (U.S.): Call or text 988·         NAMI HelpLine: 1-800-950-NAMI (6264) or nami.org/help·         Therapy Directory: psychologytoday.com·         Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741 The opinions expressed on this show are ours and ours alone—no official organizations are responsible for what we say (or how much we overshare).This show is proudly produced at PS Studios — learn more https://www.psstudios.co
