"And I picked it up and I beat him with it" I can’t 😭😭😭♥️♥️♥️♥️😂😂😂😂
Iklkk I'm just imagining young Mrs.Rogers beating a guy with a metal bar 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Look you never mess with tiny girls. My mom is tiny and you don’t mess with her hahaha
Ppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
take that outta context
@@Thatboijjay23 NO
In the vein of thinking teachers lived at the school, as a kid i thought employees at stores that were 24 hours never left, i remember asking 'but when do they sleep?'
I thought commercials were live 😂 I pictured all the actors in the studio just waiting for their turn to say the exact same thing for the millionth time 😭
Markie Ross that’s so cute and funny hahah!
SpongeBob vibes lol
@@markieross9449 The first😅
21:36 I also got held back because I was born late summer . In addition to that , I was somehow misdiagnosed with dyslexia . Now I’m skipping a grade and take AP English.
Nice
Congratulations. Hubby has dyslexia...and wasn't diagnose until high school. Went from special ed to honors. You will do great!
"What kind of people are y’all!?" I can’t 😂😂😂 I’m wheezing so hard😭😭😭
Smart move with the metal bar.
Thanks lol
I'm bingeing these episode and you're all getting me through my postop healing of surgery for breaking my ankle in 3 places. I'm basically bedridden and you all are making this so much easier! Thank you!
I know I'm late but I hope you are feeling better and fully healed ❤️😊
@@TeeshaMarie92 thank you! I'm in physical therapy and walking with a cane. Making lots of progress and almost back to normal!
I LOVE this so much! I listen/watch during my planning period on Mondays. Don't ya'll need a music teacher on the team? 😜❤🎶
I would love to hear a music teacher share their experience, as a regular or a guest! 😊
Honestly they need a teacher representing the arts! Those teachers face another side of battles with schools not always supporting them! At least that's how it was when I was in school!
That’d be awesome
Tell us about the time someone threw up in a tuba.
@@direxhalfling2760 or the classics eating glue, shoving markers where the sun don't shine-
I was the very innocent kid with the parents that don’t cuss so I wasnt introduced to many cuss words for a while. when I was in sixth grade I was introduced to the word “bastard,” and, without knowing it was a bad word, I ended up screaming it across the soccer field during gym class. after class, my gym teacher made an announcement that we shouldn’t be using foul language because she had heard some people using it, even ones she wouldn’t expect to. it wasn’t for like 3 years that I realized that I was the one she didn’t expect to cuss 😂
bro the fact that Tell has gone from the anxiety bundle child to like the outspoken and confident person he is on this podcast gives me hope lmao. I have been the anxiety bundle for a long time 🤣
The 9/11 firefighter story reminded me of one of the incidents with my second grade teacher who I still hold a grudge against to this day. I went to a Catholic school in a small town in the southern US for a couple of years. Up to that point I had lived overseas my whole life and I was pretty well traveled for my age. One day, the lesson was on ancient Egypt and I talked about having visited the pyramids. She got mad because she thought I was lying and I wouldn’t admit it because I wasn’t actually lying. I got my one and only yellow dot (green is good behavior, yellow is some issues, and red was bad behavior) and phone call home over that incident. My parents backed me up because I was telling the truth, but she never changed my dot.
Also, she REALLY hated my handwriting. It was perfectly legible and very neat, but it wasn’t the style she wanted it to be. I didn’t put tails on my t’s and other little things like that. She spent half of the fall parent-teacher conference criticizing it and telling my parents that I’d never be able to write cursive because my printing was too upright and straight. At the beginning of the school year my parents made a deal with me and my siblings that they would get us something (I forget what) if our grades were at least half A’s and nothing below a B. I always got perfect grades in elementary school, but behavior, handwriting, and other things like that were on our report cards as well. I was so anxious about getting a bad grade in handwriting I literally lost sleep over it. It didn’t help that every time she would hand back work she’d make a comment about how my handwriting wasn’t proper. Like ok, i get it Pamela, you don’t like my handwriting, but you can still easily read what I’m writing so get over yourself. When the first progress report came back and handwriting was a ”needs improvement“ instead of a letter grade I was so relieved because at the very least I could still get the thing on a technicality.
Who needs cursive anymore was she born in the 1800s
i literally thought that when my parents were watching the news about 911 and i 10000% thought it was a disaster movie and i was excited to watch the "movie" with them, asked if i could watch - excitedly - and my mom got PISSED and yelled at me to go to my room.
Awe man! I’m sorry! I wish she wasn’t so harsh about it haha but I know it was a really stressful time for everyone watching though. But you were a kid like you didn’t understand.
@@bunnylacy2097 lol yeah, like she realized she was a tad over the top about an hr later but straight that's all I remember about the actual day
I remember in the first episode Mr. Williams said "We should do a whole episode on how we were as kids" lol
Bri calling her mom “Big Tracy” speaks VOLUMES
I was also in 2nd grade when 9/11 happenned, I still remember my teacher Mrs. Hinkley crying as they announced it over the P.A. system.
I have ADHD. Many teachers called me 'chatty' until we realized that was because of the ADHD. I love that at least 50% of you have ADHD...those of us with a learning disability are often best at having patience with teaching others because we get how they feel.
I just remembered. In kindergarten, I would cry all the time to the point where it became a huge problem. During nap time, I cried. My teacher asked, “Who’s crying?” I remember the rest of the students, in perfect sync, annoyingly said my name. That teacher wasn’t very fond of me.
I had good teachers but I also had some bad teachers that messed me up. My art teacher always held up my work to complain. about it. I was in choir and was asked to lip sync instead of singing.
"She took it home for that weekend" *I LOST IT* 😂😂😂
My teacher told this kid that he should break up with his girlfriend to be with me. thats how much everyone shipped us. i hated it.
I’ve told my students “I’ve done things y’all could only dream of. Difference is, I didn’t record my crazy like y’all do.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Y'all make me feel old, it initially hit me when you said you were in 2nd grade on 9/11. I was in 6th it was also a weird day because on a random Tuesday was a teacher plan day so I had the day off, didn't watch the news and had no idea what happened till the next day when I got to school.
I was 4 years old on 9/11, I have no recollection of the time whatsoever^^
I also felt old, I was in 5th grade at the time- we were at school that morning , and for some reason our teacher chose to wheel in the TV and turn on the news to show the whole class footage after the first plane hit. Sooo I remember watching the second plane hit on live television... and then wanting to throw up when the boys sitting at the group of desks near me got up and started skipping around the room singing excitedly about going to war. For context I grew up in Tennessee.
Wild to be 21 years out from that now.
When I was like…5 or 6, maybe younger bc I remember this happening at daycare (went there til I was 12 so I could’ve been in kindergarten 😂😭) and a boy wouldn’t leave me alone and I already told the teacher, he was already told to leave me alone. So I took it upon myself to bite myself and tell the teacher he did it… 😅 cause he literally wouldn’t go away
We had a history teacher for freshman named Schaeffer. Also the most neurospicy teacher I'd ever met. Seen as a crazy anarchist by many, but the man loved coaching chess, cross country, and track.
Great show! I didn't realize you all were so young! I am over 40 and in school to movefrom Para to teacher. Perhaps you could talk about why you each chose the grade level you did and why ( based on your personality, likes or dislikes) you knee another grade level wouldn't be right for you.
Good for you! Congratulations!
Honestly love this. Keeps me occupied while doing homework So I don’t get distracted. Also I forget if it was this episode or the last one talking about breaking up fights. As a 7th grader there is a kid who is way younger than me in my class that is 5,9!
My first grade teacher did almost the exact same thing for us! He had this little monkey that I forget what it’s name was but we would be able to take it home for either the night or the weekend and it was adorable it was almost like used as an assistant to encourage kids to do their assignments I think lol
I was a 70s kid here there’s another backstory besides my school years, my dad worked as a contractor for the government and I got to go to work with him. It was never a dull moment that made me kind of a smart Alec. When we graduated high school there was a thunder and lightning storm and we were on steel chairs were very close as close as we can be there were hundreds of us on the field and we were wet and thundered after the lightning storm we still say the reason why we didn’t get struck by lightning was that we had something to do in life. Yeah that’s us the 70s kids graduated in 1981 I’m a little older than you all.
I wanna know how the school didn't find you. A stairway that leads to nowhere is the first place I would have checked after the classroom and bathroom.
Well I’ll be darned I am shocked they uploaded so soon but Im super excited
I LOVE student treasures! When teaching 2nd grade we made a class book. When teaching 4th grade each child made their own book.
YESSS! I needed this today! ❤️ thank you for brighten my day ❤️❤️ you guys rock!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Not me being a 17 y/o junior in high school, watching every episode enjoying every single part of it
I am 62 and am still in touch with my 6th grade music teacher! And still remember 3 songs he thought.
"I beat up a kid"
"I noticed a metal bar next to me"
"I almost killed a kid"
My teacher had it out for me, I got allergies in 3 grade and stated coughing a lot, and the teacher said I was doing it on purpose! This boy I had a crush on found out and started bullying me! The teacher sat me next to him.
It’s interesting to see what you guys had to take for certification exams because mine was like Rogers where I took a general education exam (PPR) and I’m about to take my Music content exam and that’s about it.
I remember hearing the held back story on Rebecas channel never thought it would be about her brother
I'm 23 and and I still love that song. Love the energy
Y’all made me want to be a teacher when I grow up
This made me think about 2 teachers that were so special to me as a teen. A math teacher in high school named David Ramey, that man would stop class to help kids do his homework. I struggled with math and he worked with me until he knew that I fully understand. The other was named Amy Moore, we called her Amo and she was the fun teacher that was more like a friend but she made me loved when I was having a hard time in school. I’m 31 and I will never forget those teachers because they impacted me in a positive way.
Love this soo much makes my day 20 times better
Okay, the 9-11 discussion just made me feel sooooo old. On 9-11 I was in my fourth year of college.
Things are so much better now. It’s like as soon as I graduated things started getting better. Wish they had that when I was in school.
When i was in Elementary school we had The Traveling Stanley. Everyone got the same character we had to decorate and take pictures of our Stan. Luckily I had an nomadic aunt who took mine to really cool places
I was a horrible student. I had undiagnosed asbergers syndrome, and I was placed in the too hard basket.
This led to me being disruptive in class, abusive to teachers and overall completely disengaged with the school system. Eventually culminating in me being kicked out of school half way through year 8.
I had one teacher that I connected with and her class was the only one that I passed.
I returned as an adult to complete my VCE (Australian equivalent of high school diploma) and passed with flying colours and certificates of achievement in all of my classes.
I have a huge respect for good teachers. Teaching is a job of passion, I can remember the name of every teacher that has had an impact on my life, they have the power to mould the souls and touch the hearts of everyone of the people they work with. I'd love to hear about some of the "bad students" and "write offs" that have had an impact on your career. Or breakthrough moments you have had with disengaged students
12:27 Not the “What kind of people are y’all”
Strong opinion on tv teachers??
Mr. Schuester immediately comes to mind 😂😂
I am so jealous that you all had to take 1 or 2 licensing exams, in Massachusetts we have the MTELs and I had to take like 5 of them, and they are all super expensive to take and you have to pay out of pocket for each test.
I love hearing you talk about your APUSH teacher because my APUSH teacher was awesome, too. He had been teaching the class since APUSH existed & he'd like had it down to like a science of what we needed to cover when & what we needed to know. But he'd also take the time to talk about things that we might not be tested on but were still good to know, like the Civil rights movement in TN. He also proved to us that the autopsy of JFK was like 100% sus. A friend of mine said that she wanted to take him home to be her grandpa. We were the last class he taught before retiring so we threw him a party & got him a cake.
This is the podcast I need
Love this! I watch all of you individually. Had no idea you all decided to make a podcast. This is wonderful! I can't wait to listen to more of these crazy stories. Literally everyday is a new story to tell. Thank you from a 1to1 Educational Assistant at a special education school. ☺️
i love listening to this because i was a wild child in school. my caregiver is also a teacher with special needs and this helps give me a new perspective/respect/understanding of this job and field. thank you so much for creating this podcast and all the laughs for the last few days (Been on a binge mode all weekend haha)
I’m listening to this while I edit photos I love this podcast
when i was a kid, one day at school i heard this girl in my class crying and saying 'my daddy is gone, i miss him so much' (it turns out that her dad had left her mum and deserted the family). at that time, my dad was away for a week on a trip with his friends so i said to her 'my daddy left too, i really want him to come back' and we were like crying over our shared pain. my teacher heard me say this and rang my mum all concerned like 'elizabeth is saying that her dad has left, is everything ok?' and my mum was laughing like 'he's in switzerland...'
I was like 7 when my dad showed me the humpty dance song. I wouldnt be who I am today without that. As a freshman in high-school now I still think of that day
I wish they had that publishing thing back when I was in school
right !!?? i would've been way more motivated tbh
Becca, it was bob and theshowgrams Friday morning free for all that is a huge memory of childhood ! Listening to my mom getting ready to brick house lol
I think it'd be cool to have links to linktrees pop up when everyone introduces themselves
One of my favorite teachers name was Schaefer. She was so wacky but made English so fun
I’m still kind of in touch with some of my teachers they’re in their 70s and early 80s. I’m 59.
dude beating someone up with a metal bar because they were hurting your team mate is a mood
Now that I'm out of school and in college, I realize that teachers are just. . people. True, they dedicate their time to teaching but deadass they're just some regular folks
I love how they didn’t know what shipping was
My mom broke my dad's jaw when they were in high-school.
Hi! I never really comment on videos, but I'm from North Carolina and I know exactly who those substitute teachers were and I have had all of them all throughout middle school!
any time i got anxious as a kid, I took the stairs to the roof and just hung out there... got detention every time tho
I relate to Brie's story so much.
In middle school i also used to get into fights left and right. Kid talked smack, fight. Kid made fun of me, fight. Kid took something from me, fight. Etc.
The last fight i got into wasnt at in class but in school baseball. This kid thought he was king of the hill but genuinely sucked. But he had the audacity to make fun of me, and worst make fun of my drunk stepmom at games. It was a short fight, no more than shoving him over before the other kids grabbed me pulling me back. I told him id kick his butt for that.
But mistake number one was this was the coach's kid. Mistake number two, kid was pretty popular even though he genuinely sucked at baseball. Mistake number 3, All of his friends were on the team.
One day during practice, i was sat in the dugout waiting to bat. I was called on deck (next at bat and to come out). This one kid at the end by the door had a bat in hand and blocked the exit. I argued to let me pass. I was ready to fight again but this was a big kid. Before i could react i was hit in the side with the bat and went down. About 10 kids in the dugout jumped me. Hitting me, punching, kicking me and kicking dirt onto me. To be honest it gets fuzzy after that first hit. But il never forget i was laying on my belly as they were wailing on me, and looked up and grabbed the fence with my hand seeing the coach look me in the eye and let it happen.
I don't remember anything else until i was about 2 miles down the road walking back home. I was very sore, and incredibly sandy from the dust from the pitch.
I took a shower and the water was orange from all the dust on me. I was sore for weeks.
But honestly im glad that happened. Up until that last fight i never lost once. Anyone who disrespected me or even looked at me funny i did the same... And I felt remorse for my actions.
I decided to become a pacifist. I have fought to defend myself from genuine threats, but no longer started fights nor did i escalate things from that day forward.
I had one teacher i really liked and we talked alot. She has seen some stuff and told me about the story of fighting. "It started with a boy like me, just fighting with his fists left and right. Then one day a kid pulled a bat or other blunt weapon. So he fought with a bat now. Then someone eventually brought a knife. So now they fight with knives. Then one day someone brought a gun... And they all sooner or later died from bullet wounds" She knew kids that died from bullet wounds...
What happened on that baseball field and that conversation with that teacher woke me up. All of my fighting, not once has it solved a problem. Its only escalated it. And escalation after escalation people are going to get hurt or even killed.
Fighting doesnt solve problems. It creates more.
It was a lesson i had to learn physically. But il never forget. And dont get me wrong, need be i will defend myself and my loved ones. But never again will i start fights or unnecessarily escalate situations.
I love this Podcast…
A question recommendation I have for Lauran is when in your life did you feel like your teacher's were superhero or something like that
I had a history teacher like that for IB Euro and he was the best!!
20:45 With a September birthday I have heard that once or twice 😅
Never been diagnosed but I too would talk to WHOEVER I was next to. Got on one teachers nerves so bad she moved me to a table by myself 😂
See my teacher might think I’m a good kid but like when I pull up my backtalk just like send me to the principals office bro
My mom actually flew one of the airplanes that crashed at 9/11 two days before. One of her best friends didn't know she came home and called her panicking and crying. He thought she was on the plane, and was never more grateful she wasn't at work
I would just like to share that before spring break at my high school a student had a wedding 😂😂 it was in the chore room.
My teacher cursed once because she was explaining something, didn’t look down and touched a worm 🪱, she went “FU-“
30:40 this is sending me I keep rewatching this 🤣💀
I'm currently in 9th grade now but my 1st grade teacher would take kids out of the class that were being "good" and would leave the bad kids in the class and she would lecture the kids that were still in the room. One time I was left in the room and when I had asked her why I was in trouble she told me that she made a mistake and said I was supposed to stand out in the hallway. Long story short that teacher ended up getting fired for using inappropriate language towards her students.
Bri you did a SIster, Sister moment LOL.
Twins switching classes is about as harmless as it gets... Id be worried if identical twins didn’t switch places every once in awhile...
When she said "hey best friends" at the start I padded my chest and said we not best friends u family
I had to take the praxis 1 before I could either start my internships or student teaching and then when I graduated I took the praxis 2 in PE
I remember making one if those books in 3rd grade
Ms Williams is me I have a speech impediment and I only have 3 friends at school and when I was younger I definitely was the tattle tale
I’ll pageant war you for Miss Ohio 😂😂 the trophy is a golden corn husk
So in 3rd grade my class did flat Stanley which is where we had a flat paper doll and we r supposed to take it to different spots and take photos with it. Every student in class got to do it except me! I didnt even tell the teacher she fully jumped over me.
I work as a noon aid and hearing what the students would say at the playground and the cafeteria OMG the stories Lmfaoo
When I was teaching high school art a kid said, "I heard you were a cheerleader." I snort laughed and replied. " I was SO not a cheerleader" "Oh, you got in trouble?" No, I was smart and sneaky and got away with it all. IT was the hippie era and I was SO the rebel.
My favorite teacher Mr.Barnes would cuss all the time. Straight up called me a smartass 3 times. It was all fun tho, he was the best.
Bre”s eye roll was iconic
One time my teachers came back from spring break and she had a big Bruise on her leg and she showed us a pic of her flipping a sun bugle in Utah
Dunebuge*
I still can’t believe a future teacher BEAT SOMEONE UP WITH A METAL BAR. But I would have done the same
You had Schaefer for social studies? We have one of those at my HS, older guy, very funny.....I bet it's him!
Best podcast
18:45 even though all highschoolers know that teachers don't live in the school my class and another class on my year (different school organisation) who had the same Polish language teacher (also she was our head teacher) had a running joke that she lived in the school because she was always one of the first ones in and one of the last ones out of the school building. (Through the whole three years there I've seen her enter in the morning like 3 times and I've NEVER seen her leave the school)
I remember my class had this thing where two people would be picked to go into the lunch room and tell the lunch Ladies who had hot lunch and who didn't hot lunch was school lunch and I vividly remember in third grade two kids came back in and they said the ask them what the f they want after that day I never seen that lunch lady again
33:13 I would name my rock “The rock”
I need full video
My grandma’s house in Glenwood is right next to the sixth grade science teacher
Ms. Rogers! I am very late to this podcast episode because I just found it, but my AP Lit teacher was exactly like your APUSH teacher! I'm in college now and while I am not pursuing an English degree, I know people who are because of her and she would say that you needed to be evaluated by a psychiatrist if you wanted to be an English teacher because something is wrong with you 😂
Me and Lauren are like the same people in school 😆
