The Room in the Room

It's Monday and back to what we now know is referred to as 'distance learning' instead of homeschooling. (Probably because if any actual homeschoolers examined what was passing as teaching here, they would be offended.) Find out why Jenn hid from Dillon. Then as Jenn tries to pass on the wisdom of going slow to go fast, Marc Antony pops up. We end this one with a completely irreleva...

It's the weekend! We are so happy about that that it's pretty much all we talk about. That and the fact that we like 'The Masked Singer.'

It's Day 3 of homeschooling in London. Dillon and his mum set out to discuss one thing, but when Jenn mentions that her tiredness comes not only from homeschooling and working, but also from the events of last night, the conversation turns to how to be a good loser.

You know how sometimes you think you've made a 'mistake' and you feel really upset? That happened today. During some very important Spiderman artwork. But sometimes mistakes aren't really mistakes.  Also, Dillon really just wants to say one word and one word only.

On this first day of Homeschooling London 2.0, Dillon and his Mum talk imperfectly about potions. In fact, even though we planned to talk about potions and we tell you we're going to talk about potions and we put 'potions' in the title, we do not talk about potions. So don't look forward to talk of potions.  Here's the thing: you get what you get and you don't get ups...

Dillon and Jenn discover they both have a fear of heights. They almost make up a story about jewellery monster and kind of tell a joke. It was also a homeschooling trial run, and, unrelated yet related, Jenn had to ask someone to please wear a mask. 

Shelter! That's the word we try to remember! Moss is a sprocker. We talk a little about lockdown pets, and a little about the schedule we made for homeschooling that will probably end up ignored. We also talk about how Dillon got Alexa. Then we attempt a story for a friend, which may have something to it... but we're interrupted and must vacate the room in the room.  

In this episode, Dillon and his Mum discuss the neighbour's dog, Moss, who is very cute, Minecraft, and... that's about it.

Welcome to The Room in the Room . Dillon and his Mom talk to you from the sound studio that Daddy built for Mommy inside the office on the top floor of our house. We live in South London. We're about to start homeschooling again, and we hope a podcast makes it more fun. In this episode, we introduce ourselves and wish you a very Happy New Ear!
