    Happy St. Patrick's Day!

    We are back and have a lot of catching up, so there's a wide range of topics covered in today's episode. Jams vs Jellies? We got that covered. General educational beliefs or misconceptions? Yup, we talk about that. What about fantastical creatures and some of their origins? Well, we took care of that as well.

    As always, your continued support means the world to us, so please continue to share, follow, comment and support - it certainly is noticed and appreciated.

    Welcome back from vacation! You might be a bit sluggish after a vacation week with the family, but hopefully today's episode will give you that extra boost of energy you need; we have a very special guest to fill in for Bill and to offer a new perspective in the education world: Johnny Dempsey, a 4th grade student.

    As always, please like, subscribe, share, comment, and continue to support us however you can - we cannot fully express how much we appreciate it. #education #twoteachers #Februaryvacation #highschool #specialguest #humor

    We are very excited to have a very special guest with us today - Ms. Keryn Cordo, our co-worker and local "expert" on AI and plagiarism detection. We honestly learned a lot from our brief conversation with Keryn, and hope you do as well.

    As always, we so appreciate all of your support, comments, and feedback. We hope you enjoy this week's episode and wish you all a safe and relaxing February vacation break next week!

  • Your Papa is Here!

    Today Bill and I talk about the joys of school leading up to break before exploring the film The Impossible a bit closer, debating whether it not it should be labeled as a Christmas movie or not.

    As this is our final episode of 2024, we can't fully express our gratitude and appreciation for all of your support throughout the year. We sincerely hope that each and every one of you had the happiest of holidays and wish you all a Happy New Year! Enjoy these final days of vacation and we'll see you next year!

    There's finally just one more week of school until Christmas Break and we couldn't be more excited about it. While discussing some traditions surrounding this time of year both in and out of school, we get into another round of "Buy or Sell", and by request, we also share a few more "Things Kids Say."

    As always, your continued support and interaction is helping to make this podcast possible, so a huge thank you to all the supporters and followers. Good luck this last week of school and we hope you all have a restful and relaxing holiday break!

    Happy Holidays! Today we discuss the treats, traditions and all the.... fun.... that can often arise around this time of year. As it is the time to express thanks, we simply cannot express our full gratitude for all of you!

    Whether you've commented, left a review, spoken with us in person, or even just listened, YOU have made this so much fun for us. With only a few more weeks until another vacation and all the chaos that ensues leading up to it, we truly appreciate you taking time to listen us fumble through this!

  • Who Ever Heard of a Snozberry?

    In this exciting episode, Bill and Brian try to conquer way too many topics and fail miserably in the process! They do manage to briefly discuss some educational change as a result of the election, parent conferences, and make more than one Eminem reference.

    When it's all said and done, YOUR support and feedback is not only keeping them going, but deeply appreciated. Be sure to like, share, comment, etc. to continue to grow the #WhatAreWeTalkingAbout community.

    Happy Voting Season!

    Today's episode brings us back to the warm days of summer with Part 2 of our interview with our History teaching colleague, Steve Botelho (aka, Bittah Dominator).

    The second part of our conversation was a little more philosophical than our first, as we reflect on some of our own teaching practices, as well as discuss our expectations for the upcoming year and cell phone use in the classroom.

    As always, we thank you for your support, feedback and interactions. Please leave a comment or follow us on our Instagram page @wawta_podcast. Happy listening!
