Topic: Coding Boot Camps

The rise of for-profit coding boot camps is discussed as an alternative to four-year degrees, though the hosts question their high costs and focus on JavaScript. Inspired by this, they jokingly propose a "Dvorak Curry Podcast Boot Camp" that would charge $15,000 to teach students how to write newsletters and take checks. The segment touches on the intense 16-hour workdays required by top-tier Silicon Valley boot camps.
