Today, over the Thanksgiving Break, Hunter Hart, an Eagle News alumni came back to his 8th grade roots to spend some time in the classroom and in the EaglesBeak podcast studio with me!  This was a lot of fun!  We also did an on air video for our Eagle News broadcast!

Enjoy!

Today's podcast is another special one, Mr. Chuck Benesh came over to the house to record today's show as I continued to deal with a back issue!  I am posting this on August 1, 2019 and today I came home from the hospital after successful back surgery yesterday.  Mr. Benesh was the first one to text me to see how I was doing!

Today's podcast covers some school stuff but then we jumped into some, ha ha, kidding, a lot of sports talk!  We talked Browns/Steelers, Mr. Nicolosi, Bluejackets/Pens and a lot more.  This was a lot of fun, because Mr. Benesh and I have a lot in common except for our love of team.  We love our sports, but I love my Pittsburgh and he loves him some Ohio and especially Cleveland!

Enjoy the show...

Hannah Carver and Josh Wright

Thanks for coming back to another episode of "A Look Back with Mr. Meta." Today's show features Josh Wright and Hannah Carver, recent graduates of Liberty High School and I met up with them at Panera Bread to "look back" at our times together!

Hannah will be starting her college career at OSU and Josh is starting his career at Ohio University with the intention of moving to Ohio State after 1st semester. 

Enjoy the show!  I did and it was a blast to hang out with these wonderful young people last week!

Emma and Maci

So for this week's show, I hung out with a couple of my old Eagle News kiddos, Maci and Emma.  They are both moving into their junior years at Liberty High School in August.  It was an absolute blast for me to hang out with these young ladies.  Emma is a big basketball junkie and Maci is big in to cross country and Disney!

I loved listening to their stories of our times in eagle news as well as what's going on now and a look into their future!

Enjoy this, because I did!

Angelisa Crea

Today, I met one of my all timers from 3rd grade, Angelisa Crea.  Angelisa is a performer at Princess Cruise Lines and was home in Powell for a while because she broke her ankle while performing.  So she is home and I knew that I needed to get together with her so that she can share her experiences around the world!

As we kick off Season 4 of the podcast, I started listening to the shows that no longer showed up in the Podcasts app.  I was overwhelmed by the quality of this conversation with Kyle Desze back in 2017. 

There was one thing that he said in this conversation that stuck out to him from his time at Hyatts.  It was the "relationships" that he had with his teachers.  Amazing stuff. 

So for the summer of 2019 as we do more and more podcasts/shows, I will repost some of the interviews I had with kids back 3 seasons ago.  This is some good stuff.

Download the Episode -- again!

I am hoping to post some other stuff too as we move through this summer, stuff like movie reviews, reflections of life/school/stuff and share it with all of you here on the podcast.

To say that keeping up with my students is difficult, well, trying to line up these podcasts are just as difficult.  But they are all so very satisfying.  Today, as I start Season 4 of the show, I sat down with Lauren Bine and Sonya Patel, sophomores at Ohio University and The Ohio State University, respectively, and they made it easy for me to line up the show.  They called me and asked to be a part of the podcast. 

We met up at the Hyatts Library and spent an hour looking back at their time in college, high school and back in 8th grade at Hyatts.

Hey all,

I was so pumped to do this podcast because Kate contacted me!  She's a freshman at the University of Tennessee.  She want to work in Occupational Therapy and our time together in Eagle News was extra special to me.  She was one of those kiddos that I will always remember my last conversation with her as her Eagle News teacher.  Thanks for visiting Kate, it was nice to hang today!
