Crying in My Car: A Podcast for Teachers

The exceedingly popular and hilarious TikTok teacher Bri Richardson (@honestteachervibes) joins the show this week. We catch up by learning about how students and teachers treat an internet famous substitute in their school. James is shocked to find out that it's not all autographs and fist bumps.

In Teachers in the News, teachers are finally getting paid by winning large cash awards for implementing innovative teaching strategies. Like the Million-Dollar Man, Tennessee is trying to make new teachers better and stronger than they were before. And we learn that you should be very careful after an oversized breast augmentation surgery, especially if you're a shop teacher.

We close out the show by trying on southern accents and phrases that will have you wondering what actually happens south of the Mason-Dixon.

Get ready for a the ride of an academic ride of a lifetime as your favorite hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon chop it up with TikTok teaching sensation, Cathy Cannon (@cannonsfodder). Together we tackle the ups, downs, and downright strange sides of graduation.

We kick off with some zingers, including that infamous Smoker joke and a case of the wrong name at the graduation podium. Devin reminisces about a graduation where just a few students scooped up a landslide of awards, and how he celebrated his own graduation with a visit to everyone's favorite owl-themed fine dining establishment.

As alwqys teachers are back in the headlines, starting with a Connecticut job fair, and a teacher that caught students drawing swastikas responding with a rather drastic solution. Meanwhile, another teacher has been hiding students' gender identities from their parents. We cover a cigarette company offering men three months off for maternity leave, and a hot debate ensues over a teacher showing a film featuring a gay couple.

In a final burst of comedic fury, Devin lays into the absurdity of elementary school graduations and decides to give us his own graduation speech, which is every bit as hilarious and heartfelt as you'd expect.

Join us for this roller-coaster ride as we laugh, rant, and reflect on the wide world of graduation and more!

This side-splitting episode kicks off with Devin and James taking a swan dive into the deep end of the changing mentality of teachers. Devin regales us with a tale about his Teacher Super Hero pins, sold as merch, reflecting the shifting attitudes of educators who want teachers to hang up their hero tights and capes for good.

Next up, the guys sink their teeth into some juicy news stories, discussing the tantalizing topic of PAID professional development in Virginia, and the eyebrow-raising double standard of punishments for a Miami teacher who got 20 years for an inappropriate relationship with a student, while a female teacher snagged a mere 60 days for the same crime. They chew on the need for reform while trying not to choke on the gravity of the situation.

Later in the show, Devin and James stumble upon the wackiest version of rock-paper-scissors ever called hooker-hunter-bear, and compete for the illustrious title of Crying in My Car's Ultimate Hooker-Hunter-Bear Master!

James unveils his first-ever top-ten list, "The Ten Signs Parents at Your School May Need a Dress Code," igniting a rollicking, comical debate. Not to be outdone, Devin counters with his own top ten ways that teaching is like being trapped in a superhero comic, wrapping up the show with another heroic flourish.

So, buckle up and join us for this uproarious joyride that weaves humor, news, and the realities of teaching into a rip-roaring adventure you won't want to miss!
