    Ep71 - END OF THE YEAR 2023!!!

    It's the end of the year and B-ry has decided to make a list of positive changes he would like to see in himself... LOL... JOKES... He found an article about Australia at the bottom end of the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) for discipline and he's pissed off. We also chat about getting a sponsor, end of year gifts, end of year cleaning and B-ry dressing up as Santa for the Preps! Thanks again for listening this year. Hope you have a ripper holiday. (Listen to the end for B-ry's inspirational holiday pep talk!) Thanks legends, see ya next year! Ben and B-ry xo

    Ep70 - INCLUSIVITY

    Second last episode of the year and B-ry has kicked off over Education Queensland's new policy on "inclusivity."  "Inclusivity" they have decided in their infinite wisdom is basically making it harder for kids to get suspended. Less suspensions = More inclusive right?  The boys dissect this issue with all the incredible insight you've come to expect from Teacher Yarns (2 dickheads having a chat over FaceTime.) Holidays soon. Woooooo

    Ep69 - FOUR DAY SCHOOL WEEK

    Schools in QLD are moving to a four day work week and B-ry has some opinions. Shock. We go over the positives and negatives and what that would mean for teachers, students and parents.  B-ry was obviously upset they didn't ask any teachers about this change but hey, what's new? Thanks for all the support. Not long till the holidays! Woooo!

    Ep68 - B-RY’S NEWSPAPER ARTICLES

    Ben woke up the morning of this recording, walked downstairs and found B-ry with his nose in a newspaper. B-ry looked up and his first words were... "Fire up the podcast gear! I've found 3 articles that have cheesed me right off!" Episode 68 was born... The boys talk about the change in kid's dream jobs, new University recruitment policies and victimhood becoming a currency.  Hope you've had a good week legends.

    Ep67 - PHILOSOPHERS

    This week the boys are both in QLD and podcasting from the outside deck (sorry about the pigeon.)  We talk SA teacher strikes, WA possibly dumping NAPLAN and yarn about a news story of a teacher punching a high school student which obviously lead to B-ry talking about discipline. We also read out a heap of your msgs and emails. We love getting them so keep sending them in.

    Ep66 - POSITIVES OF TEACHING

    Ben is back on the Sunshine Coast and he's set B-ry a challenge. That challenge is...  To write a list of his top 10 favourite things about teaching. Did he get all 10?... Almost. Did he also make a negative list?... Of course. Ben kept him on track for most of the episode and we both surprisingly have a heap we still love about teaching.  Have a listen, write in and tell us the top 3 things you still love about teaching :)

    Ep65 - CHRIS MATHESON

    Meet Chris Matheson!  A self proclaimed naughty kid at school, turned electrician, turned full time stunt man. He went from being a sparky, to studying acting at night school, to working as a stuntman at movie world, to being Chris Hemsworth's stunt double. This is another ripper conversation proving that education doesn't end at grade 12!!! Thanks for the yarn Chris.

    Ep64 - MENTAL HEALTH

    On this weeks episode we cover mental health.  In the ever increasing stress put upon teachers, talking about mental health is important now more than ever. We also cover other important topics like toilet locks and trying to take a shit at school. Was awesome to hear B-ry opening up about his bout with depression, what to look out for and what he did to get out of it. It’s not hard to ask RUOK!  But it’s super hard to admit you’re NOT OK.  Talk to your friends/family or msg the boys at teacher yarns if you’re struggling! :)
