    LO: To know Ofsted clearly have staff meetings in Nandos

    This week, it’s all happening! Adam gets the call—yes, that dreaded school phone call that sends shivers down every teacher’s spine. The brothers dive into the stress, absurdity, and high stakes of an Ofsted visit, while Mr P unleashes an almighty rant about Ofsted’s latest so-called “reforms” (spoiler: they’re just as pointless and ridiculous as ever). Elsewhere, they tackle the big debate—should kids call teachers by their first names? One listener argues the case, but let’s just say the lads aren’t convinced. Plus, they reminisce about that weird childhood obsession of finding out teachers’ first names—absolute gold dust back in the day. Also in this episode: 🎭 Boyzone: No Matter What documentary is this week's recommendation—why Louis Walsh might just be the perfect Ofsted inspector. 📜 The most bizarre (and concerning) things kids have told their teachers about their parents’ jobs 🚨 The school wellbeing initiative that takes the biscuit 🤦‍♂️ And finally, the story of a teacher who lovingly marked a pile of papers… only for her boyfriend to mistake them for something after one too many drinks. Febreze was involved. This episode is packed with laughs, relatable rants, and a little bit of chaos—so grab a brew (or maybe something stronger) and enjoy! 🎟️ Two Mr Ps LIVE Tour: Don’t forget to grab your tickets for the Two Mr Ps Live Tour—coming to a city near you in October half-term 2025 & February half-term 2026.

    LO: To know we all did cringey things as teenagers

    In this episode, the brothers dive headfirst into the hilarity and chaos of school life, with a good dose of relatable rants and cringe-worthy moments. They kick things off with Mr P telling a tale that’s every teacher’s nightmare—It’s a story of survival, wet wipes, and making a memorable first impression (shoe in hand). Next, they take on the January blues, swapping stories of windy playground duties, sleepless nights, and reminiscing about the energy (and questionable fashion choices) of their teenage years. Expect laughs as they relive their cringiest moments, from wearing suits to the pub to blasting BFG audiobooks in car parks. The episode also features a hilarious round-up of the weirdest parent complaints, including a child’s "stolen" eyebrows, demands for teachers to microwave Rustlers burgers, and the parent who wanted less Jesus in the school nativity. And as always, more listener stories don’t disappoint—teddies being “tossed off,” children channelling Taylor Swift in maths, and a surprising twist involving a pharmaceutical rep mistaken for a drug dealer.
