Today we talk about President Biden and why president's lose their popularity in year one, the show the Expanse, and what holiday traditions Linder is looking forward to celebrating with his son! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and thanks for listening!

It's been about a year since we started this little podcast together. So we're calling this season 2! Welcome back everyone and hello to any new listeners. Today we talk about the recent elections, some challenges we face as teachers, and what the best father/son and father/daughter movies are. Thanks for listening!

We're back! A move and summer schedules couldn't keep us apart. Today we dive into the Olympics, our issues with polarization and what it means for our future, and we dive into all the new nerd culture happenings in the world. Enjoy!

We're back! They said it couldn't be done, they said the pod was dead, they said it would never happen again...but here we are! Join us today as we talk about protest songs, life lessons we learned in high school/college, and of course some nerd culture. For those listeners that are students, congrats on making it through a crazy year! Enjoy!

We'll do it live! School, grading, and life have caught up to us lately and finding time to record has been tough. They don't tell you what an unglamorous life being a podcaster is! That being said, we were able to sneak in a pre-Spring Break special. Stiles and I sit down together in the same room for the first time to talk about college, Community, and the coast. Enjoy and have a safe and healthy Spring Break!

One of the coolest things we get to do as teachers is see some of the amazing things our former students do post-high school. Lots of fun talking with Stone Bridge alum Dylan Beck today. We get into the issues with the legal system, why Boston is a wicked-sweet city, and talk a little Taylor Swift. Enjoy!

Today we welcome in our friend and former colleague who currently resides on the West Coast, Kasey Simon! Kasey stops by to share her insights on California culture, life on Mars, and how to buy a house. Plus, we have technical issues for the second straight week...so that's cool! Thanks for listening and wear a mask!

We're back! After a little break to take care of grading and end of semester responsibilities we return with a guest. Today we're joined by our former department chair Brian Miller who helps us break down some of our worst governmental decisions, cryptocurrency and investments, and why the Super Bowl can't do justice to the wide array of cultures present in America. We also apologize for some technical issues throughout the podcast...hey, we're amateurs! 

Today was a tough one. We discuss the events of January 6th and their aftermath. Although we like to keep this podcast light and entertaining, we felt that as teachers in the discipline of social science, we needed to do our best to tackle some difficult subjects today. You'll also get to hear if Mr. Stiles has faith in his Ravens to bring home another Super Bowl. Thanks for listening.

Today we welcome our first guest! Legendary teacher and website designer Ben Freeman joins the pod to discuss the free rider problem, his favorite historical topics to teach about, and his favorite holiday memories. You can find Mr. Freeman on Twitter @freemanpedia, at www.freeman-pedia.com, and on his YouTube channel Illustrative Examples.
