What if the education system is preparing our children for a world that no longer exists?
In this episode of The Tim Castle Show, Tim sits down with entrepreneur, author and Growth Machine founder Nat Eliason, now helping build Founders School, the entrepreneurship track of Alpha School, to examine a radical new model for learning in the age of AI.
The idea is bold: compress academics into the morning, then give teenagers the rest of the day to build businesses, sell, experiment and learn through real-world consequences.
But what happens when education starts measuring success through customers, revenue and profit?
Can failure still feel safe when parents are paying $150,000 a year?
Are schools developing grit, leadership and persuasion, or simply selecting for ambitious families already positioned to win?
And in a world where AI can increasingly write, code, research and build, is the scarce skill now intelligence or the ability to communicate, influence, take intelligent risks and make people care?
This conversation is about much more than school. It is about who we want the next generation to become.
