Episode 7: Is Waldorf a Cult? Part II

Episode 7: Is Waldorf a Cult? Part II

This episode is part II of our Is Waldorf a cult? episode. In Part II, we look at how we got from 1922 to today while navigating this question. We look at current discussions online, particularly one quite popular podcast, and Kristi does her eldest daughter business of keeping people accountable. By the way, the tops of pillars are called the capitals. We should have known that! We cuss in this one so keep that in mind. Also, Sadie and Beau (the dogs) make an appearance while we are talking about them.

A point of clarification, teachers at private schools, Waldorf or otherwise, often recieve some amount of tuition remission for their children as part of their benefit package.
