Crying in My Car: A Podcast for Teachers Bored Teachers

Teachers know exactly what annoying buttons to push!
 
Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Join our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon as they redefine the stereotypical teacher, are they really a tweed-jacket-wearing bookworm, or are they much more? What’s the worst way to spend your morning? The answer is usually having to attend a staff meeting with admin. Finally, don't miss the top best ways to irritate any teacher in 3 seconds!  
 
We all know that sometimes students can get on a teacher's nerves, but what if we told you the people who irritate teachers the easiest are actually other teachers! From bragging about test scores to back-handed compliments, us teachers can really get on eachothers nerves, and we're going to talk about the worse ones!
 
This week, we’re going to debunk the stereotypes of teachers and dive into what really happens when the bell rings. Some people call teachers lazy and tired, but let us give you a peek behind the curtain and show off that it's simply not true (because we're not lazy at least). 
 
Someone give us a Nobel Prize! We found the cure to insomnia… Our morning staff meetings! There is nothing worse than trying to stay awake in a never ending admin meeting, it truly bores us to tears. These meetings seem to drag on for so long, almost as long as grading papers.
 
So prepare your game face for the staff meeting, grab your venti iced brown sugar shaken espresso (because you're going to need it) and tune in to this week’s episode of Crying in my Car, a podcast for teachers!

Beware of your next PE hockey game turning into a pool noodle fiasco…
 
Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Join our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon as they mentally prepare themselves for the pool noodle war to end all pool noodle wars! Do they have what it takes? Maybe back in 2019. Now, it's anyone’s win. 
 
Can you imagine running into your student in the wild? Our hosts some of the most embarrassing moments of running into “schoolies” - who knew they existed outside those glitter board walls? 
 
We discuss the latest snack-time controversy that's driving students bananas - literally! Can fruit improve focus in students, or is it just a slippery move by administration? 
 
One teacher decided to put a fun spin on the classic game of hockey, by arming his students with pool noodles. This is amazing in theory, but bit him in the butt when one student got his glasses shattered on the gym floor. Either way we think it would be fun to start our own pool noodle hockey league, who will emerge victorious? Tune in to find out!
 
So strap on your knee pads (or knee brace), keep your pool noodle close, and tune in to this week’s episode of Crying in my Car, a podcast for teachers!

Zero gravity classrooms are the new frontier of teaching…
 
Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Join our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon as they unravel the controversy of teachers hitting the recording studio. Can educators drop bars without dropping standards? With Elon Musk and Spaceforce, teaching in space is just around the corner, so how will zero gravity affect how we teach? Finally Canada is amazing, and our hosts discuss their trip to the great white north. 
 
Some educators have decided to trade lesson plans for lyric sheets, even to the point of putting their students into their music videos! Are these jams purely educational, or are these teachers just looking for background singers? We're going to have a freestyle debate that'll have you nodding your head to the rhythm of education reform.
 
On top of that, our hosts float a thought-provoking question past us – could zero gravity be the classroom of tomorrow? Would kids be able to stay in their seats? Could you imagine how fun recess would be? And would snack time lead to a crumb covered fiasco? Either way we think living out our childhood dream of being an astronaut would be worth all the messes we’d have to clean up.
 
We also take a trip up north where we discuss all our favorite things about our neighbors up north - Canada. From poutine to hockey we all know the classic things Canada is famous for, but why is nobody talking about this exchange rate? With it Americans get essentially a 30% discount on anything in Canada, so we were spending money like Rockefeller!
 
So grab your poutine and tell Houston to cut down on the chatter so you can listen to this week’s episode of Crying in my Car, a podcast for teachers!

They told Jesus no sandals allowed at prom…
 
Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Join our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon where they take a walk down memory lane and discuss prom – a night of glitz, glamor, and... crippling expenses? From the corsage to the limo, there are so many hidden costs in prom, and they're breaking down some of the craziest ones. They also couldn't help but notice that the dress code for prom is so ridiculous, that even the parents would be dress-coded. 
 
Prom could cost these students a small fortune, you wouldn't believe how high these price tags get! We don't know about you guys, but if our promposal cost as much as a 1999 Toyota Corolla, they would just get a Happy Meal and a ride in our brand new 1999 Toyota Corolla.
 
By the way - tux rentals, can we get a 2 nights for 1 deal!? We can’t afford to do BOTH prom and graduation with these numbers. Don’t get us started with the ridiculous dress code guidelines. Are students really being celebrated, or are they actually being suppressed by these out-of-date traditions?
 
So put on your corsage, check your coat at the door, don’t you dare bring your flask and tune in to this week’s episode of Crying in my Car, a podcast for teachers!

Teachers caught throwing hands over what!?
 
Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Join our hosts Devin Siebold, James Yon where they break the first rule of fight club and maybe throw some hands? Don’t miss our tips on improving your math skills by listening to your favorite Drake album! 
 
Devin slows down and makes us take a hard look at the knuckle dusters sneaking in our hallways — yes, you heard that right — teachers thrown into the ring of actual physical confrontations, sometimes with other teachers! Have an ice pack ready.
 
We've also got the scoop on a teacher “mixing it up” with a new learning strategy — could your next math class come with a beat? Devin might step back into the classroom just to dust off the old turntables and help our students boost grades - and beat stress with our sick beats. #Bars
 
Educators sometimes are just very *unlucky*, wait until you hear about a teacher's lottery win in the form of loan forgiveness, who would have thought that in only four minutes a teacher could make their debt disappear? Algebra-cadabra!
 
Curious who ended up in the teacher's lounge with black eye? And what's this four-minute miracle for wiping out loans? Tune in to this week’s episode of Crying in my Car, a podcast for teachers to find out!
 

No Fast Passes needed for this ride of teacher stress.....
Welcome back to Crying in my Car, a podcast for teachers! Join our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon as they ask if it’s a good idea to date around the teachers lounge, and reminisce about their Grad Bash theme park shenanigans.
Whenever that chaperone signup sheet turns up to go to Universal to celebrate our seniors graduation, GET OUT OF OUR WAY! We are always the first ones to sign up (which is pretty easy when you’re the one printing it out). From riding the Incredible Hulk rollercoaster with no line to the free food (a slight step up from our cafeteria food), we probably look forward to Grad Bash more than the students do.
Speaking of end-of-the-year events.... some teachers take loving the lesson plan to a whole new level. Finding a date to prom is a little bit harder for teachers, so some of them choose to go with each other; so this week we ask - are they looking for love in all the wrong places?
So keep your arms and feet in the vehicle at all times, por favor manténgase alejado de las puertas, and enjoy this emotional rollercoaster on this week’s episode of Crying in my Car, a podcast for teachers.
