Hot Mess Teacher Express Podcast
Comedy:Comedy Interviews
Buckle up for a wild journey through the world of "Teachers Potlucks", staff discounts, and school funding. Let's just say, things get real, real fast.
We kick off the discussion with Vinny laying down the law on when it's okay for teachers to post their wishlists online. Spoiler alert: influencers, you're not off the hook! Then Jess chimes in with her views on platforms like Donors Choose and how they aren't universally accepted.
Next, we dive into the dark depths of the school supply struggle. Vinny paints a hilariously grim picture of the quality of schoolroom supplies, with a special focus on the dreaded Chromebooks. Who would willingly choose them? No one, that's who. And we know you've all been wondering - do teacher discounts actually exist? We put this question to rest as Vinny muses on the elusive perks that aren't as publicized as we'd like.
From there, we launch into a discussion about staff potlucks. Brace yourselves, as Jess and Vinny avoid "death by crockpot" and questions of why this is considered a reward. And Vinny breaks down the school supply funding disparity in our US vs. UK segment.
It wouldn't be a Hot Mess Teacher Express episode without our Grind My Gears session. Get ready for rants about creators asking for money and the maddening phenomenon of people asking easily Google-able questions.
Lastly, we shine the spotlight on the unsung heroes in the Underdogs segment - the teachers who sign up for extra duties outside their contracts.
So, whether you're a fan of potlucks or loathe them, whether you Google every question or ask away, join us in this hilariously relatable journey through the challenges and oddities of teaching life.
Choo! Choo!
