Sounds crazy, but believe us it's all true. And while most of these stories involve our darling angels in the classroom, plenty of other people contribute to the insanity. From substitute teachers taking off in the middle of the day, to teachers that behave worse than the students do, this episode is a wild ride that teachers will relate to all too well. Of course it's not all over-the-top anecdotes, there's also plenty of real talk about what it means to be a professional, to have solid classroom management and to be emotionally regulated. Then again after hearing some of these stories, you'll need all the emotional regulation you can get! So get ready to laugh and nod approvingly as our hosts break it all down for you. Whether you're a teacher who has their own stories to tell, or someone who has heard wild stories and might not believe them... this episode is for you.

You'll find out which one of our panelists knew how to throw hands when they were young, and which one wasn't as successful. This conversation takes a look at every side of what goes into a fight, from the teacher's role, how bullying affects student behavior, angry parents and how we can learn how to emotionally regulate before things get out of control. In this episode we answer a lot of important questions: Should a teacher break up a fight? How should you handle a threat from a student? When should admin step in and when should you just handle this yourself? And how do you try and prevent fights from happening while getting bombarded with requests from parents, administrators and students? We even give the listeners some helpful tips on how to stay as calm as a teacher possibly can through social-emotional learning, grounding techniques and breathing exercises. But even if you're not a teacher, you'll find plenty of tricks you can use in your daily life.  So take a deep breath, don't worry about throwing hands, sit back and relax and enjoy this latest episode of Teachers Off Duty.

Our panel waxes nostalgic about all the things that made school so great back in the day. School lunches that just hit different, computer labs, field days, and always being on the cutting edge of technology are just a few of the highlights in this episode. Of course, there are other changes we've seen in education since the '90s, and our teachers touch on a bunch of them. Teachers working second jobs, school staffing, custodial shortages, freedom in the classroom... it's all in there. And if you've ever wondered what our panelists were like when they were in school, you're in luck because they all spill the tea about just what kind of students they were. So hop in your DeLorean and travel back to the days of Goosebumps, cafeteria pizza and drawing those fancy S's on every scrap piece of paper you could get your hands on.
