Then it spirals into the modern annoyances nobody asked for, like updating your iPhone and suddenly every app decides it needs to re-download like it's starting a brand-new life. From there, the conversation turns into a full-on roast session about getting older: random injuries, gray chin hairs, knees that file complaints the second you try to play Barbies, and the very real realization that your body is disrespectful on purpose. But the main event is the episode's theme: substitute teaching. The hosts break down the different types of subs (drill sergeant, timid, overly-friendly, retired teacher legend), the schools subs learn to avoid, and why a good sub should be treated like VIP because the entire system depends on them. And yes, there's an unforgettable story about a fourth grader delivering a roast so brutal it belongs on the comedy tour. They also get real about teacher stress, using PTO without guilt, lesson plans that nobody actually follows, and why education has become so overwhelming that even "a normal day" can feel like chaos.  TIME STAMPS 0:00 – When Students Come Back With No Consequences 5:42 – Promoting the "Is It Friday Yet?"

Then the crew dives into the topic every educator has witnessed, feared, or had to respond to at least once: student fights. From the eerie quiet right before it pops off, to the hallway "school of fish" swarm that tells you something is about to go down, to why breaking up fights is a lose-lose situation for teachers who have zero training but all the liability. They share stories from middle school to high school, the difference between "windmill fighting" and real damage, and the wild reality of parents asking, "Did my kid win?" And just when you think it can't get more ridiculous, Albraden tells the story of a preschool "gang" (yes, really) called the Knee-High Killers and the moment he realized they were trying to jump a kid in at recess. The episode wraps with a real conversation about emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and how phones, texts, and social media have changed the way students handle tension (and how teachers are left managing the fallout).

From bathroom duty, hallway duty, and bus duty to tracking who vaped, who signed in, and whose parents forgot pick-up again, the crew unpacks all the wild responsibilities teachers are handed with zero warning. And of course, they sprinkle in the comedy, the storytelling, and the unfiltered truth that keeps this community feeling seen and understood. The trio also dives deep into the comedy tour life — the cities they keep mispronouncing, the teacher homies who pregame a little too hard, the earring mishap mid-set, and how performing on stage has pushed them outside their comfort zones. They talk about confidence, introverted moments, the intensity of outdoor shows, and the supportive admins who make both teaching and touring possible. The conversation moves from chaotic classrooms to chaotic comedy clubs, reminding everyone why teacher humor is unmatched. Along the way, they break down the impossible tasks teachers are asked to do, from disciplining kids during planning periods to handling medical issues, potty accidents, curriculum changes, and parent phone calls long after contract hours end. Whether you teach kindergarten or high school, ride a bus or run a classroom, this episode will have you laughing, nodding, and saying, "No other job expects this from us."

Plus, we're talking about everything from classroom management hacks and the power of productive struggle (instead of helicopter teaching) to how and when sarcasm actually works with kids, why admin support can completely make or break your school year, and how today's grading systems have changed the game. We also get into tech overload in the classroom, what it's really like teaching middle school chaos, the pressure on ELA teachers to be "perfect" spellers, and why kids today have zero fear of calling you by your first name.  Listen now & don't forget to subscribe!  Follow your hosts:  Briana Richardson @HonestTeacherVibes  Anna Kowal @ReadAwayWithMissK  Jessica Hawk @MyTeacherFace Follow us on all platforms @TeachersOffDutyPodcast _________________________________ Teachers Off Duty - A Bored Teachers©️ Podcast

They even unpack fake dating profiles, teacher crushes, and the dreaded "teacher voice" moment that shows up off the clock. If you've ever tried to balance lesson plans and love life, this one's for you. Grab your coffee, your grading pile, and tune in for the teacher talk that gets a little too real and funny.

Comedy Tour is hitting the road again with all-new jokes, new surprises, and more chaos than ever. However, we are still in 2025...Catch the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour coming to a city near you this FALL! Tickets going fast: https://bit.ly/TODBTCT  We're coming to back to Canada!

They're the snack givers, the sanity savers, and the real MVPs when it comes to keeping lessons (and tempers) on track. In this episode, we're giving them their flowers and sharing the hilarious, chaotic, and heartfelt stories that prove just how vital they are. From "work husbands" who bring chips and Red Bull at just the right time to preschoolers plotting revenge at nap time, the stories are peak teacher comedy. We also talk about parents who overshare, co-teachers who always have your back, and those moments when whispering is somehow scarier than yelling. It's all the daily madness teachers know too well—served with plenty of laughs and love. We wrap it up with gratitude and shoutouts to every teacher aide, inclusion teacher, and paraprofessional holding it down every single day. You deserve more credit, more help, and definitely more pay.
