    How to High School 101

    SEASON 1 FINALE!! High school pretty much held our hands on our way to the real world - if you were good at Maths, the world was your oyster. If you enjoyed Art, you'd be the one serving up the oysters. So how can schools today encourage kids the freedom to learn what they want without caging them into ticking certain criteria? How can schools teach kids to trust the decisions they want to make without depending on adults to make choices for them?

    Carbs, I Cannot Even.

    Physical Education was really one of those subjects which made you second guess if it was even a 'subject' or one of those filler episodes when the director ran out of actual episode ideas. But we break down the greater impact it would have had if it was treated as an essential piece of our school curriculum and the long term positive impacts of it in the future.

    Damn Right(s)!

    Remember that time you said 'no' and everyone thought you were this untamed, wild animal reeking havoc in the streets because you had no respect for your elders and were a menace to society because you decided to make a choice for yourself as opposed to pleasing others? Oh you don't?... okay well that's a little awkward because that is all we speak about on this episode. We tap into how not saying 'no' when we were kids shaped our childhood, our time at school and the importance of saying 'no' in the real world - even when it comes to the law and law enforcement.

    Making Your Grass Greener

    'Reduce, Reuse, Recycle'... the holy trinity of Geography when we were 14. But turns out there was a lot more we could have done as kids to be more generous to the environment and to ourselves.

    The Whole Story on History

    There will never be enough time in a lifetime to know everything there is about history, but what we do get to learn, it should be understood through as many people's narratives as possible... well that's what we think anyways.

    The Big, Red Question

    We kept having our periods a secret so well the FBI should've hired us because we knew how to lock that shit down in high school. No but seriously, keeping it a secret in a co-ed school was a skill in itself - this episode breaks down why we even needed to keep periods a secret in the first place and how we hope the mindset changes in high schools, for all genders.

    To Be or Not To Be Taxed

    'Can you pay my bills? Can you pay my telephone bills? Do you pay my automo' bills?'... genuinely we wish we had learnt how to back in high school.  On this episode, we discuss the difference it would have made if school equipped us with financial knowledge and the impact it would have made in the real world.
