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.

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.

Season One has been a blast. Thanks for tuning in.
Big changes coming. Rose is super busy with Senior Year stuff- teaching in Billings at 7:45am sometimes.
At MontAsia, we have the lowest staffing levels ever, and we're expecting the biggest numbers ever, so Chef is strapped. He's often doing dishes until 3am.
We simply can't record and edit two hour eps anymore.
We'll do a one more big Season One Finale, and then Season Two will have new format. Stay tuned. We're really excited.

Oui Oui
After the shortest intro ever, bam: The Tik Tok ban. Chef and Rose bring different takes to the ban that would never be, until it was, and then immediately wasn't (?????).

We finish up our Holiday Binge Reviews with quite the selection. Climax fucked us both up. What a movie. There were some hits and misses after that. More feces than either of us expected.

1:11.07
SchedulEd
Rose walks us through the last semester of her senior year, which his head-spinningly busy.
Remember y'all, the Senior Year above all other years is the example of the progressive homeschool ideology that most of the best lessons take place outside of the home, out in the field or volunteering etc. And like Chef has been saying for years, Rose is certainly out there.

TipOut
After a brief detour into the world of professional Rock Paper Scissors, because Chef in a divergent maniac, we're back on track; Rose would have us read, and Chef would concur with a specific Carl Hiassen ammendment.

Much Love y'all. Season one has been a blast. See you for the finale!

We start with one of our biggest intros ever, but we cover a lot, from the Vegas and CA vacays, to Home Schooling, plus a mini ScratchEd segment talks about how all the cancer days have been slowing down our schedule, but it has been a happy break with really special family time.

In an AfterschoolEd first: a breaking news segment!!!
During our post intro recording break, DUO called Chef only to hang up on him. What did Chef say to piss of that owl so much she had to hang up? Tune in to find out.

ReviewEd
Back to normal programming: a ReviewEd buffet. It's been an origami and binging holiday, and we watched a lot. From White Lotus to Black Dove, 3:10 to Yuma to Bonesaw, Lucky Logan to Queenpins, we have notes. It's a quick mini review of each one.

Rose gave Chef a tip so good, he has to pass it on. Learn y'all, learn.

54:23
ReviewEd Rose Special Edition
In a segment so good, we have to make it a tradition, Rose does her 10 Ins & 10 Outs for 2025. She's got some bangers. Chef agrees, then gets jealous and does his own on the fly.

1:15.47
Koan Koan Git
In an awesome Education Moment, Chef starts a Koan only for Rose to recognize it less than one line in. Not only does she know it, she just told it the other day to a friend. Rose takes over the tale, nails it, and we talk about what turns out to be a mutual favorite Koan. Cross the River with us. We promise to set you down.

1:20.23
CancelEd
We bring back an AfterschoolEd fan favorite and check in one a couple big '24 "Cancellations".
Trump, Rowling, Roiland, and more, we talk about what they did, and if they were cancelled- surprising year, surprising results.

1:38.05
Tip Out
Chef has a lazy, bucolic, beautiful tip for the peak of SADS and cold season: a great way to relax in the Reels or YouTube rabbitholes.
Rose came in fiery for her best Tip Out yet. She's getting ready for a year of huge travels so the travel vids and travel crew she found are perfect.
