Summary
It's finally launch day for Charlie's new book, "The College Scam," which has been a culmination of ten years of work as he's traveled around to hundreds of college campuses across the country and observed the unbelievable indoctrination that he avoided when he decide to take a "gap year" that became a "gap decade" when he decided to found Turning Point USA, which has become the nation's largest and fastest growing conservative youth movement. Charlie uses his lived-in experiences to explain to listeners why they should opt out of college as well. He also dives into Turning Point USA's Student Action Summit over the weekend, news of which has been covered extensively across the mainstream news media. Charlie unpacks a very telling straw poll that was conducted at the conference, starting with with who you would prefer for president, Trump vs DeSantis, and the results might surprise you.
