In this episode of Playing Teacher, Robert, Matthew, and Brugge dive deep into the bittersweet—and sometimes hilarious—world of teachers leaving their jobs and the hidden realities behind the classroom door.

They talk about:

• The emotional chaos of packing up years of teaching memories into giant bags
• The secret hideouts teachers swear by to survive the school day (side lab supremacy, anyone?)
• Epic hide-and-seek strategies for teachers and kids alike
• Professional development’s most uncomfortable moments—including yoga sessions gone very wrong
• Recession Santa horrors and gifts no one wanted

It’s raw, funny, and painfully real—because sometimes the hardest lesson is knowing when to walk away. And sometimes… you just need to hide under a desk.

🎧 Tune in for stories only teachers could tell—and some you definitely shouldn’t tell at staff meetings.
