Matchstick Musings

Love educational podcasts but don't have time for lengthy episodes? Want something a bit more bite-sized (like just two or three minutes per episode)? Matchstick Musings is just what you're looking for! Though small, a matchstick carries the fire to start something big. In the same way, while episodes of the podcast may be short, they have the potential to spark a fire in educators, reminding them of what's most important. Proving inspiration can come from just about anywhere (Brent records episodes in his car), Matchstick Musings are the perfect motivational morsel for educators everywhere.
