This week, Bri, KC Mack, and Anna are diving into the wild world of standardized testing — the stress, the funny fails, the endless paperwork, and why it makes both teachers and kids lose their minds.

From shimmying across the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour stage to debating if kindergarteners should really be tested on life skills (like tying their shoes ), the crew gets candid about how testing impacts classrooms everywhere. We're talking testing buckets, crazy school rules, snack scandals (Oreos?!), and why teachers end up pacing thousands of steps during exam week.

And of course, it wouldn't be TOD without plenty of laughter, roasting, and a few Disney detours (because yes, somehow state testing and Disney magic do connect).

Whether you're a teacher, parent, or just here for the laughs, this episode will remind you why educators everywhere deserve a standing ovation.

AI in the classroom? Love it or hate it, it's here to stay—and we've got thoughts. In this week's episode of Teachers Off Duty Podcast, KC Mack, Bri, and Anna are cutting up as always while diving into the wild world of ChatGPT, Magic School AI, and all the ways artificial intelligence is shaking up teaching.

From hilarious stories on the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour (including a teacher sliding KC a note mid-show!) to real talk about how AI can save time, grade essays, differentiate lessons, and even write IEPs, this conversation is equal parts funny and eye-opening. We're asking the big questions: Should students be allowed to use AI? Are we becoming hypocrites as teachers? And how do we keep the "rigor" alive when ChatGPT wants to make every test multiple choice A?

Plus, the crew shares their favorite AI tools for lesson planning, classroom hacks, and even how teachers are using AI to spice up professional development. By the end, you'll be laughing, taking notes, and maybe rethinking how you use AI in your own teaching.
