PRE-ORDER MY NEW BOOK (OUT MAY 5, 2026)!!! - https://bit.ly/43BquPd

Teacher besties… this week I brought on one of my favorite chaotic humans: the hilarious Gerry Potoka, comedian, teacher, and man of mysteriously undefined licensure.

In this episode, Gerry and I try to pinpoint what he actually teaches, debate whether PE tests are secretly impossible, unpack his “desk art collection,” and discover that his lowercase k is actually a cursive crime.

We also react to a voice memo that had both of us questioning the ethics of having “favorite students,” accidentally stumble into a conversation about charcuterie boards and disease vectors, and play a game of Would You Rather: Teacher Edition that reveals way too much about our tolerance for cafeteria behavior.

The shocking subject Gerry may, or may not, actually be licensed to teach.

Why his lowercase k started an existential crisis in the teacher’s lounge.

The voice memo that made us both rethink “favorite students” forever.

Kinder field trips vs. middle school dances: the battle of true horrors.

A charcuterie board, a stomach bug, and a chain reaction that absolutely nobody survived.
