About this listen

AfterschoolEd: the homeschool podcast nobody asked for! We're talking about aspects of homeschool that aren't usually covered: the senior year, all the tests and college application processes, the gap year, going to college as a girl who's been mostly homeschooled in rural MT her whole life, and going out into the "real world" as a homeschool grad. We'll have some great tips for homeschooling, and some fun peaks into our world living on the Beartooth Front and running a bustling business. All of this set in a family bar, with a profane and probably dangerous chef. We'll drop new eps on a biweekly basis.2024

  • Hug Your Fam - Life Is Short
    Apr 29 2025

    We haven't been recording much, and it's time to come clean.
    Our fam was shattered a couple weeks ago, and life will never be the same. We bring y'all into our world and share what happened, both because we owe it to our fans (Schoolies? Homies? Schoolios? Ultras?) and because if there's any chance we can help you and your loved ones, to ideally prevent this from ever happening to you, then it's all worth it.

    Know that whatever happens, you're loved. Stay safe y'all. Go enjoy the day. Life is short.
    Ask that person out finally. Buy that eBike. Pick a flower, give it to a hottie. Love while you can.

  • Springisode 1 Tulip Pirates
    Apr 8 2025

    We're back!
    Season 2 has a tighter, lighter format. It's Graduation --> Gap Year!
    We kick it off in style with the first of our spring themed eps.

    11:43
    SOS Tulip Mania
    We talk about the first ever economic bubble, which indluded the first futures sales, and is the source of the very word bubble in an economic sense: the Dutch Tulip Craze of 1636. Fortunes were made, more were lost, all over Tulips.

    24:15
    The Quote Game
    We debut a new segment: guess the quote! Was it a Tulip Bro or a Tech Bro?

    26:51
    SOS
    Johor Boleh
    The Dutch empire hits home: we talk about where the Dutch empire overlapped with our family history in Malaysia, how that empire ended, and what parallels there are to today's society. We also talk about how badass Johor is, and talk the origin stories for Melaka.

    Next up: spring themed movies. Thanks for tuning in for Season 2!

  • Have a Drink
    Mar 26 2025

    2025 has hit AfterschoolEd hard.
    On a light, postitive note, Rose has been good busy. She's been volunteering to teach dance at a local elementary school. It's been fantastic for them and her. But it means it's impossible to get her Rose and Chef on the same page schedule wise.
    On a serious note, living in a Nazi, Fascist regime has been as nightmarish as it was predictable, and that grind is evident in Chef's behavior during this ep. He's equal parts Hunter S Thompson and Ron Burgundy.

    A super sized intro has us talking about Season 1 in general, what's to come in Season 2, and it shows what it's like surviving 2025.

    23:30
    ReviewEd
    We finally finish Who Cooked the Last Supper!! Much like 2025, it was a wild ride.
    It's a hell of a book and also a frustrating book. We're glad we read it.

    We also shoehorn in some other segments, it kinda got wild. Chef took tons of edibles and drank like ten drinks during this session, so. . . . . . good luck to us all. 2025 in a nutshell.

    See y'all for Season 2 soon! New format for Season 2, with shorter, quicker episodes, and more comedy, less education. It's a gap year after all.
