Pam Stenzel spoke twice at my high school while I was there. She was very screamy and so over the top that literally dozens of kids pretended to be sick so they could leave the auditorium. She definitely made it sound like having any kind of sexual contact would leave you covered with syphilitic lesions while dying of AIDS. It's been like 25 years and I'm still pissed that my school district paid for that while I sat all day in a classroom full of asbestos.

I once got a question wrong on a test i knew was right. Both me and the valedictorian brought it up too the teacher with our lesson books. The answer book had the wrong founding father as the answer. So the ones who read the study material all got that question wrong. He didn't care had been teaching that wrong for years and no intention of changing.
@@iamjake99909 Yeah, that's crazy. I've seen far too many examples, myself included, that are clearly teaching history incorrectly, but they like their messaging better. Truly disturbs me to the core.
I'm a historian. I began to study History before I even entered kindergarten - no lie, my mom was such a history buff, she taught me to read on my own by age 3, and I knew I wanted to be historian by age 5 because I saw the power in controlling a nation's narrative. I would NEVER teach History on a K-12 level, because it's sheer propaganda. I want to make it clear that this isn't limited to the USA, every nation does this. They use their compulsory education History courses as government-sponsored patriotism-building classes with slightly factual information. Secondly, American teachers are required to Major in EDUCATION and only Minor in the discipline in which they'll teach. A Minor is about 6 courses. Contrast that with my undergraduate course load as a History Major: I was required to take a total of 34 courses to graduate. Of those 34, 32 counted towards my History Major (my college didn't have a core curriculum the year I started, so I was able to load up on courses in my Major). My Masters degree is in History, not Education, and my PhD courses were all History except one, which was my corollary course, Sociology, because I'm a Social Historian (the only reason I'm not a working professor is that I became disabled while working on my dissertation & was forced to stop). Your History teachers were bad because they aren't required to be good, because they aren't required to be historians, because real historians aren't willing to teach government-sponsored propaganda. Also, let me guess, your History teacher was also either 1) the P.E. teacher, or 2) the football coach? Many schools advertise for Social Studies/History teachers who are also Football coaches, or Football coaches who can also teach SS/History -- the teaching being the less important part of the job. As a typical historian, I'm not terribly interested in conspiracy theories, but I do believe in this one: no one in the US government wants children to actually learn US history. They're scared that you'll suddenly ask for stuff, like rights you already possess, or perhaps progress, if you know truths. That's why your History teachers sucked & will continue to suck. My niece's 6th grade History teacher actually told her that I, her mother's sister, who was actively pursuing my doctorate in US History at the time, was teaching her, "irrelevant history," as if he was the sole arbiter of relevance, and his little BA was equivalent of my education & knowledge. I told her to tell him I was willing to tutor him any time he wanted to learn US history. I don't think she delivered my message & my sister was afraid I'd jeopardize my niece's grades if I went to the school & confronted him, or I would have. If you learn anything worthwhile in K-12 History class, count yourself lucky, because it was dumb luck.
The sad thing is that since this episode came out, more research has revealed that, more than anything else, sexual education protects kids. An accurate knowledge of the parts of the body, even at ages as young as 5 or 6, helps kids to identify if they're being abused and to tell a trusted adult. Parents who deny their children good sex education want their kids to be susceptible to abuse and assault.
When I was 8yo, my parents bought us a 4 volume set of booklets (plus a "parents' answer guide" that I was the only person in our family to read) called, "The Life Cycle Library." It was 100% factual information for children on approaching & getting through puberty - for both sexes - navigating the world around you mentally, physically, and emotionally. My parents were 31 & 32 when I was 8, so I think they felt ill-equipped to handle these conversations with my then-11yo brother, let alone me & my younger sister. I read all 5 volumes, cover to cover. The end result is, at 59 now & post-menopausal, I was never pregnant, I contracted one treatable STD in college while in a long-term relationship, and otherwise had no sexual health concerns my entire life. I understood birth control, sexuality, what was fair & not fair in dealing with the opposite sex, and that there may be no such thing as "normal," but there's plenty of, "that's definitely NOT normal!" I also learned that I had agency as a young woman, and that saying No was my right, because my body is MY body. The most stupendously, ridiculously stupid reason the abstinence only crowd gives for not teaching this is they don't want to give kids, "ideas " No one needs to teach ANY mammal on this planet about sex. It's a 100% completely natural act. Mankind knew how to have sex before we knew how to create language! We knew how to have sex before we could start fires! We knew how to have sex before we stopped living in trees! It's not a taught subject! What does need to be taught is sexual health & the emotional literacy that should accompany it. I'm firmly convinced that it's the suppression of all this that creates sexual dysfunction. We might have less sex crimes if they *did* teach more sexual health.
I remember a story where a young girl had been taught alternative names for her body parts by her parents. She was sexually assaulted and told her friend when she was at school (she was too young to understand what had happened). A teacher overheard but because the girl was using different names, the teacher didn't realise what she was talking about and so didn't report it. That's why I'll always advocate for teaching children the proper names for body parts.
You can find stories of women who, upon learning what sex is IN A COLLEGE CLASS for women, broke down because that’s how they learned that what had been done to them as kids was sex. It’s horrifying.
i was with you until the last sentence, way too harsh Ive never met a parent that wanted their kid susceptible to abuse thats a fucked thing to say just because someone views the topic differently than you
This is one of the best Last Week Tonight shows from 9 years ago. And unlike calculus, it's still very important and relative for a vast amount of people.
The problem with watching these nearly-10-year-old videos is that they can still air today because very little has meaningfully changed, "blue wave" or not.
As much as I appreciate that show, there's still so much that show has left to actually teach. It is a drama so I know that's not the point but it's literally called that so shouldn't it? They still have a lot of biased views and fearmongering about STIs in general which disappointed me.

Lol, I worked at Whole Foods during that debacle and honestly, people were buying so many things that made no sense to me. DC had also started adding a 5 cent fee for plastic bags and people would lose their minds over it. Just ridiculous in every aspect.
What I've always loved SO MUCH about "abstinence only" education is the ASSUMPTION that the preferred state of adulthood MUST BE MARRIAGE. I am 59 years old. My mom told me that I announced to her when I was *8* that I never wanted to get married, and 51 years later, I want to go back in time and ask 8yo me for more words of wisdom! I do not even use the term, "pre-marital sex." IT'S JUST SEX. Unless at least one of the people involved is already married, then it's marital sex, extra-marital sex, or a migraine. I've been happily single all my life & definitely not a virgin, and couldn't care less how people judge me. I've also never been divorced, never cheated on a spouse or even a boyfriend, and I took birth control seriously because I knew my limitations. I do not believe in double-standards, and I refuse to feel badly about my path in life just because it didn't meet some imaginary & arbitrary standard used to shame people for doing human things. The same people who shame others over sex also glorify: state-sponsored murder; guerilla warfare against the ob/gyn profession; hatred of non-conformists; persecution of self-expression; independence of more than half the population. Why would they matter to me????
Whole Foods ... I worked for them a long time ago. I can tell you first hand, a lot of the stuff they sell is CON JOB STUFF! I remember we were asked to listen to a "PITCH" about how this "SPECIAL WATER" gave you more energy. I asked for the science behind it and she asked me to push her hands. I did, then she told me to take a sip and do it again, I did and she purposely gave me less resistance with her hands. My crew walked away from that lady thinking, "THAT SHIT IS INSANE!" A lot of the stuff they sell is basically BULL SHIT sold from SNAKE SALESMAN!
I grew up on a small farm, and live in the same area again. Lots of farms here. Lots of farm-fresh produce, fresh eggs from chickens you can actually meet walking around the farmer's property, fresh milk from cows you can drive past laying in a pasture, letting you know either it's going to rain or they're tired. There are zero Whole Foods stores in my county.

I discovered this show when my 5th grade teacher in private school showed the Sex Education clip on the school's TV. Luckily I was previously raised in a very blue state so I had had pretty good sex ed at the point and would continue to be shown. But I think this was shown in that [really strange] school to get me to ask more questions and it's worked very well. That teacher I remember bringing up this show in other conversations because he thought it was funny. Since then I've watched this show pretty consistently, now I'm in high school, and I am very happy to have this episode in full so I can see that awesome fake Whole Foods commercial. Thank you John Oliver for luring me into left-leaning politics and the LWT Team for being so funny!
Litteral demonstration in the 2000s made students eat oatmeal on stage... first kid got the "good oatmeal" then "seasoning" was added to the bowl for every student it passed through. THE SEASONING WAS DIRT AND SOME POOR KID THREW UP ON STAGE!
"You wouldn't accept a history class that wasn't historically accurate." I mean, I'd like to think I wouldn't, but then again your points about the daughters of the confederacy (and several other things) seem to indicate that I already have. And modern politics seems to indicate that many, many people would like to have classes that are even less accurate... I feel guilty for laughing so hard at that statement, knowing full well that my laughter is akin to gallows humor and that it's only funny because there is literally nothing funny about the reality of it.
"water is free and a bunch of asparagus is like $4" it hurts because I saw the asparagus water and genuinely thought "6 dollars? that's so cheap!" even tho it's literally asparagus in water. oh how the times change.

I taught high school social studies and I remember finding out that one of my students found out about the birds and the bees through Wattpad fanfiction.
so the thing about whole foods is... if u can just get the bare essentials and do food prep at home with the fresh ingredients, it's actually well worth the money. dont buy the gimmicky shit. more importantly, here in CT, whole foods is cheaper than any store. my avg bill at M32, big y, or s&s is $200+ a week for 2 people, whole foods is $110 a week
I rarely comment, but I had to say something here. Two condom demonstrations in the sex ed videos, the one with the sock and yours, have made a BIG mistake. When you put on a condom, you have to grab the tip and keep holding it while you unroll the condom. Not doing it (you) or letting go of the tip (sock guy) increases the chances that sperm would spill out of the condom or the contom would break. Also, one should always check the expiration date on the package and properly take the condom out. Please consult a sex ed instructor if you make another video :)
Regarding consent, I will point out that if you're a guy and your partner hands you a condom, that is consent. The other two aren't the same as consent but if your partner hands you one, they are definitely giving you consent there LOL
So that whole Just say no routine, never works, NOT on Drugs, NOT on sex, Not on anything. We need real honest discussions with our tweens & teens about these real issues. They are way smarter than anyone gives them credit for and that woman who screams at youth try to scare them out of sex. Young women should not be looked as used up or in any way dirty, used up, or anything other than a normal human being doing what nature calls us to do.
I went to a public university in the same town as YALE. We all knew that most of the student body were no better than the rest of us. They just got more student dept, or had their parents pay for school. Yes they have 6% acceptance, but honestly that 6% is no better than the rest of us. Their diploma just seas that theey went to an expcive school.

We had health class in middle school that had some slight Sex Ed I guess? But we definitely had a speaker come from Wait 4 Your Mate and they made us do the scotch tape exercise. 🙄 This was in the Chicago suburbs in 2005.
In regards to the asparagus water. It takes hours to simmer about a pound of asparagus to make that amount. The single stock in the container, I presume, was added for decorative purposes. Considering a pound of asparagus is five dollars - six dollars seems fair. The comparatives don’t line up. Right?
My junior high Sex Ed health class in the early 80's had full colored graphic photos of just about every sexually transmitted disease out there as well as some nudity in the films.
May also explain why I wear sock “in bed”, all those years of women asking if I have protection and I pointed down and said absolutely. I think I have some apologies to make and some child support cheques to write.
I went to school in the late 90s early 2000s in Kentucky and we didn’t receive any type of sex ed at all not in middle school not in high school not at all
17:19 Nobody gonna question how much the average number of sexual partners differs so much between men and women in a world where still the majority of people is straight?

Luckily I was previously raised in a very blue state so I had had pretty good sex ed at the point and would continue to be shown. But I think this was shown in that [really strange] school to get me to ask more questions and it's worked very well. That teacher I remember bringing up this show in other conversations because he thought it was funny. Since then I've watched this show pretty consistently, now I'm in high school, and I am very happy to have this episode in full so I can see that awesome fake Whole Foods commercial. Thank you John Oliver for luring me into left-leaning politics and the LWT Team for being so funny!
Gotta love that celebrity sex ed video!
the sex ed segment is the first john oliver segment i ever watched, crazy to see it again almost a decade later.
More to thank... it feels good...
8:00 scrolled through the comments but I guess no one recognized Fred Armisen 😂
Litteral demonstration in the 2000s made students eat oatmeal on stage... first kid got the "good oatmeal" then "seasoning" was added to the bowl for every student it passed through. THE SEASONING WAS DIRT AND SOME POOR KID THREW UP ON STAGE!
Sorry for the poor explanation: this was an abstinence-only demonstration.
Besides the horrifying message, that’s a lawsuit right there
Dirt can kill. 😮
Omg that ending was so good 😂
God, Nick Offerman with that shit-eating grin killed me.
"You wouldn't accept a history class that wasn't historically accurate."
I mean, I'd like to think I wouldn't, but then again your points about the daughters of the confederacy (and several other things) seem to indicate that I already have. And modern politics seems to indicate that many, many people would like to have classes that are even less accurate...
I feel guilty for laughing so hard at that statement, knowing full well that my laughter is akin to gallows humor and that it's only funny because there is literally nothing funny about the reality of it.
Some governors (*cough* DeSatan *cough*) straight up don't want historically accurate history classes if it doesn't fit their agenda I'm pretty sure.
Can we get some Breaking Bad memes featuring young Mike?
"water is free and a bunch of asparagus is like $4" it hurts because I saw the asparagus water and genuinely thought "6 dollars? that's so cheap!" even tho it's literally asparagus in water. oh how the times change.
16:44 I'd never run from a cute girl saying take me now!
Florida would definitely allow ( I mean actually does allow) history. Be taught without being historically correct.
Not so much allows it but demands it. As deSatan said, slaves learned skills... 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤬
28:06 "Here's a bunch of other forms of birth control. Google them!" Oh, this one didn't age well, because if you ask Google about any of these now it will probably try to tell you how to use them in constructing a chimney...
#1 😂 fabulous segment 😂
“Spinach quiche!”
Isn't home schooling sex education standard in Arkansas ?!?!!!
I taught high school social studies and I remember finding out that one of my students found out about the birds and the bees through Wattpad fanfiction.
Watching this during my sex ed class
Which taught you best? I think I know, at least if you're in a red area. It's effing crazy.
Sex Education at my High School: "If you have premarital sex, you'll die of AIDS."
No one thought Trump would win....it's why I didn't vote,what a mistake 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Shoe activities. Nice.
I love artisinal asparagus water 💧 😍 ❤️ ♥️ 💕
Awwww the jon stewart at the start because his last show was on august 6th 2015
Good Evening From England, I Was In A Science Class In The 80s The Teacher Put on A Video And Left the Room
so the thing about whole foods is... if u can just get the bare essentials and do food prep at home with the fresh ingredients, it's actually well worth the money. dont buy the gimmicky shit. more importantly, here in CT, whole foods is cheaper than any store. my avg bill at M32, big y, or s&s is $200+ a week for 2 people, whole foods is $110 a week
What makes this sex ed video weird is that I was watching Umbrella Academy right before I watched this.
Watching these in 2024 is kinda depressing... We were all so convinced he was just a joke back then...
I rarely comment, but I had to say something here.
Two condom demonstrations in the sex ed videos, the one with the sock and yours, have made a BIG mistake. When you put on a condom, you have to grab the tip and keep holding it while you unroll the condom. Not doing it (you) or letting go of the tip (sock guy) increases the chances that sperm would spill out of the condom or the contom would break. Also, one should always check the expiration date on the package and properly take the condom out.
Please consult a sex ed instructor if you make another video :)
Regarding consent, I will point out that if you're a guy and your partner hands you a condom, that is consent. The other two aren't the same as consent but if your partner hands you one, they are definitely giving you consent there LOL
I got handed a condom by a sex ed teacher once, is that consent?
At 11:02 he says "teaching sex addict in school is really important" lol
So that whole Just say no routine, never works, NOT on Drugs, NOT on sex, Not on anything. We need real honest discussions with our tweens & teens about these real issues. They are way smarter than anyone gives them credit for and that woman who screams at youth try to scare them out of sex. Young women should not be looked as used up or in any way dirty, used up, or anything other than a normal human being doing what nature calls us to do.
Very weird to look back at a time when fox didn’t worship trump
It makes me great at bowling.
Seeing Tammy 2 and Ron being nice feels weird
was not prepared to hear louise explain sex
We (the US) really got lucky with stealing John Oliver from the british.
Unfortunately we never appreciated him while we had him, it’s okay, we have an abundance. It’s why we can loan out Hugh Laurie from time to time.
Now we start with one of the worst partsof US History. The beginning of the clown.
THEY GOT JOHNATAN BANDLSKSDS BREAKING BAD!!!!!!!!! JOHN BANK
I went to a public university in the same town as YALE. We all knew that most of the student body were no better than the rest of us. They just got more student dept, or had their parents pay for school. Yes they have 6% acceptance, but honestly that 6% is no better than the rest of us. Their diploma just seas that theey went to an expcive school.
...And so it begins!
I can confirm that that video indeed did not form the basis for the BCS prequel, it totally should have though that prequel was utter shite.
Is the Whole Foods ad narrator Fred Armisen? Or just doing an impression of him?
I think it’s Fred. Sounds just like him
27:49 priceless
I never thought I'd live to see Prismo adventure time and Mabel gravity falls telling me to put on a condom holy shit made my day
is our children learning
Children fifty years from now may start by watching the GOP debate and having a discussion about where the “whatever” is in which blood comes out of according to Mr Ex Prez Trump
Well only one isn't a convicted felon
We had health class in middle school that had some slight Sex Ed I guess? But we definitely had a speaker come from Wait 4 Your Mate and they made us do the scotch tape exercise. 🙄 This was in the Chicago suburbs in 2005.
In regards to the asparagus water. It takes hours to simmer about a pound of asparagus to make that amount. The single stock in the container, I presume, was added for decorative purposes. Considering a pound of asparagus is five dollars - six dollars seems fair. The comparatives don’t line up. Right?
Stalk?
@@Tonyhouse1168 Got autocorrected. Yes, stalk. Well, a rib, technically.
I'm sorry but everyone knows that the best safe word is meatloaf. Because " I would do anything for love, but I won't do that"
My junior high Sex Ed health class in the early 80's had full colored graphic photos of just about every sexually transmitted disease out there as well as some nudity in the films.
14:25 well that explains a lot about foot fettishes
May also explain why I wear sock “in bed”, all those years of women asking if I have protection and I pointed down and said absolutely. I think I have some apologies to make and some child support cheques to write.
27:00 Did the writers not know that some people are really into that?
GAY GRAPES! 😂
19:41 Lady talking about a topic she’s never experienced.
I went to school in the late 90s early 2000s in Kentucky and we didn’t receive any type of sex ed at all not in middle school not in high school not at all
17:19 Nobody gonna question how much the average number of sexual partners differs so much between men and women in a world where still the majority of people is straight?
Nick Offerman 😂🤣👍
I wonder how these parents would react to my 4th grade teacher introducing Sex Ed by playing the song "Candy Shop" by 50 Cent and then asking us what we thought the song was about
That fake Whole Foods ad reduced me to tears of laughter.
Lana?…….
LANA!!!!!!
Pam stenzel... what a disaster
That Pam person don't get touched. That is her problem 😅
Would've been nice to see the sex ed clip from Monty Pythons in this episode.
No seriously.. run
3:32
Counterargument to the man saying “what I do in my room…”
It actually is 😂
