What's harder: teaching middle school or running for office? Angie Carraway has a pretty definite answer.
In this episode of Show Your Work, Matt puts Angie in the hot seat with questions about teaching, Texas politics, and life on the campaign trail.
They talk about struggling public schools, the rising cost of living, what Republican voters are saying at their doorsteps, and why running for office has changed how Angie sees politics.
Along the way, Angie shares some behind-the-scenes stories, explains why teachers are a lot like the musicians on the Titanic, and makes the case that the Texas we see on social media isn't the Texas we actually live in.
