My kids were sick. My husband was sick. My babysitter got sick. Somehow I was the only one left standing, which honestly felt suspicious.
Meanwhile, I was traveling for shows in Washington, DC and Philadelphia, performing for teachers… and accidentally for a group of 40 people who absolutely did not know who we were.
So naturally Gerry and I had a lot to discuss. We talk about the chaos of teaching during flu season, the truly unhinged things students say to teachers’ faces, and the advice every new teacher should hear before stepping into a middle school classroom.
There’s also a heated debate about movie theater etiquette, a surprisingly philosophical conversation about insults from students, and the passive-aggressive teacher phrases that somehow become second nature after a few years in the classroom.
And somewhere in the middle of all of that… we discover that Gerry’s students think he looks like a thumb.

The advice new teachers get before facing middle schoolers for the first time.
The insult students discovered about me that I didn’t even know was a thing.
Gerry’s experience watching a classic movie… with the worst possible audience.
The passive-aggressive phrases teachers secretly love using.
The unexpected comedy audience that had absolutely no idea who we were.
