This episode took us almost two months to record. We took a little break, Redacted got the plague (maybe COVID), and now the school year is starting. It’s been a LOT. But we love you and we’re so glad to be back! We asked you to share why you left teaching, and wow, did you deliver! From burnout to dealing with unsupportive admin, we’re talking about the tough choices we’ve all made to walk away....

In this episode of Teacher Quit Talk, we dive into the school season scaries and how teachers are getting ready for the new year. From unsolicited “welcome back” emails to the unrealistic expectations set by social media, we’re unpacking all of your end-of-summer anxieties. We’re here with you–whether it’s a nightmare schedule change or literal nightmares–because we know the back-to-school scaries...

Put on the boxing gloves and call Jake Paul because we’re getting into a controversial topic with opposite opinions! Frazz says homeschooling works best in grade school, while Redacted thinks it’s better suited for older kids. What we can all agree on is the need for regulations to prevent cults from abusing the homeschooling system. Check out Redacted’s stream about the Duggars Patreon: patreon.c...

In this episode, we talk about the wild world of school drama, from unexpected emergency meetings to scandalous staff romances. We chat about the petty arguments, the high school-like conflicts among teachers, and even some jaw-dropping stories from our listeners. Ever heard of a principal denying an affair that no one even knew about? Or a high school dubbed ‘The Love Shack’? We’ve got those stor...

Is there a right time to quit? If so, this is definitely it. While we appreciate the professionalism of end-of-year resignations, we can’t help but miss the drama of a mid-year exit. Today, we’re sharing some wild stories from Patrons about their own quitting experiences. Plus, we discuss the struggles of teaching in challenging environments and offer some unconventional advice for handling diffic...

A lot of you have specifically asked us to talk about why the hell people still teach. That’s a great question! Today we’ll get into our own personal reasons for sticking around plus we’ll read your submissions. Some of the reasons are sentimental, some are practical, and some might just have to be chalked up to mental illness. Patreon: patreon.com/teacherquittalk Frazz: tiktok.com/@mrs.frazzled R...

Today we’re talking about a little controversy. A teacher recently went viral for having students unbraid his hair on TikTok Live. A lot of people are coming for him online and –even though it’s not ideal–  it’s a really complicated and nuanced situation. It’s so emblematic of the way teachers aren’t being given adequate training and mentorship around appropriate boundaries. @HeyMrsBond has some g...

Content Warning: miscarriage We're getting back to our roots today! A lot of you quit and our patrons paid $4 to tell us about it. Please protect your mental health and don’t let anyone guilt you out of making the right choice for yourself. We see you, we hear you, and we support you.

As the school year winds down, we're all feeling the weird mix of boredom and chaos. Some schools are having field days while others are still testing - it's a strange time for teachers everywhere. Let's get through the last few days together! Patreon: patreon.com/teacherquittalk Frazz: tiktok.com/@mrs.frazzled Redacted: tiktok.com/@awalmartparkinglot Advertising Inquiries: https://red...

We’re diving into the wild world of summer school! Whether it’s for enrichment, remediation, or simply because parents are working, there are many reasons kids attend. We break down the stats, share our own experiences, and explore how these programs balance academic recovery and fun. Let’s get into the chaos that is summer learning!

What’s the point of school? No really, what’s the point? When a student walks across that stage to get their diploma, what should we – as teachers – have imparted to them? Today we’re getting into what we think the most important lessons are. Turns out, it’s more about critical thinking than calculus.

Weed. Alcohol. Panties. VIBRATORS! That's right folks, we're talking about Teacher Appreciation Week. You sent us your best, worst, and absolute weirdest experiences.

In this episode, we’re unpacking our field trip fears and frustrations. From the perils of managing a classroom on the move to the comedic chaos of trips gone awry, we share our personal tales and listener stories that range from the surprising to the downright disastrous.

Today we’re reading your submissions about testing. The common denominators are how BORING it is, the absolutely absurd regulations at your schools, and lots and lots of puking for some reason. Let’s get into the highs and (mostly) lows of administering the tests from Uncle Sam.

This week, we have a real live famous person! TikTok creator and proud public school teacher Dutch is here. Did you realize Dutch was a teacher? Because we certainly didn’t. We’re exploring the winding road that led to teaching and unpacking what it’s like to balance fame on the internet and regular classroom life.

This episode turned out to be an inspo session, which is rare for us. Today, Chanea Bond is here to break down the realities of 'honors' classes. A lot of times, ‘honors' is less about smarts and more about thriving in classrooms without the distraction of behavioral issues. Mrs. Bond lives by the credo 'It's not you, it's the system’ and is here to remind us that sometimes...

Surprise! A lot has happened since our last recorded episode. That’s right, Frazz had her baby! Of course she was literally having contractions while working on the podcast. This week we’re just shooting the shit. We talk about a few serious topics like school resources and the sisyphean struggle of finding enough Chromebook chargers, but mostly it’s a much-needed decompression session. Patreon: p...
