This week’s episode is full of laughs as we welcome a guest whose journey into teaching started with a simple clerical mix-up and turned into something everyone is glad happened. With a down-to-earth style and a natural ability to make people laugh, the conversation reminds us how joy and humor can make learning stick.

We lean into the holiday spirit with a round of Naughty or Nice and a festive Draft Day: Holiday Movie Edition, bringing out strong opinions and plenty of laughs. A fun, lighthearted episode that proves sometimes the best paths begin with a little mistake.
