In this episode, we discuss our real feelings about teacher evaluations.  We reminisce about our favorite lessons and explain how not all classrooms look alike.  In the middle of our podcast, severe weather sirens alert Chris to head to the bathroom and a discussion about irrational fears of natural disasters ensues.  

Teachers are the only people we know whose entire day can be ruined by a jammed copy machine.  On this podcast we'll discuss common teacher pet peeves from faculty meetings that should have been put into an email to purchasing ugly school t-shirts.  Let us know if you have any teacher pet peeves we didn't talk about.  

We're not the education experts but we have strong opinions and we like strong drinks.  After two years and many people encouraging us, we decided to start a podcast in 2020. Find out who the Bright Chicks are what this podcast is all about!
