Send us your stories!  Hold onto your hall passes, educators! We're kicking off a fresh season of Teachers Off Duty and let's just say, the bell's ringing but nobody's behaving. Join our first round of hosts — Kc Mack, Andrea Caspari, and Jay Yoder — as we spill the tea on the most absurd substitute teacher tales you’ve ever heard. We've got snack-snatching subs who prefer their confiscated goodies with a side of nicotine, and let's not forget about the fashion-forward (or backward?) sub with toe shoes, a love for microwaves, and socks that have seen better days. Ever had an MMA-fighting sub? Ours not only dealt with busy work but also with principals... in a not-so-academic way. Wondering about the efficacy of using your classroom as a comedy club? Well, between Casey's anecdotes and Andrea's belief that the classroom is the ultimate joke-testing ground, we've got some thoughts. And, bless Jay's heart for unveiling the secret world of side-hustling subs and their... entrepreneurial spirits. Amid the laughs, we touch on real issues: sub shortages, the challenges (and hilarious misadventures) of tech in the classroom, and the bizarre world of A.I.-penned resignation letters. By the end, between learning about Casey's eye-opening discovery of student hacking skills and Jay’s enviable vacation tales, you'll be in stitches! And a big shoutout to Mr. White—may your sea turtle-inspired lessons forever swim in our hearts. Get ready, dear listeners, because whether it's Netflix dual screens, tie-tying lessons, or heartwarming acknowledgments, this episode is a wild roller coaster through the substitute saga. Strap in, and let’s make some mischief!   -- Listen to the podcast anywhere you stream your favorite shows: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69pLuB4cKPCP8UG3eCImfP  Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/teachers-off-duty/id1602160612    Subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.beacons.ai/teachersoffdutypod
