This week, Bri, Anna, and Jay dive into the growing discipline crisis in schools and how it’s driving educators to the edge.

The episode kicks off with some nostalgic laughs about screen names and the origin of Bri’s iconic handle, “Honest Teacher Vibes.” From there, the conversation flows into personal quirks, classroom learning styles, and even a Vegemite sidebar that somehow perfectly sets the tone for this unpredictable, bestie-powered show.

But the heart of the episode zeroes in on a serious and frustrating issue - student behavior with no consequences. The hosts share stories from their own classrooms, express concern over inconsistent discipline policies, and vent about how a lack of support can push teachers out of the profession. They touch on PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports), cell phone policies like Yondr pouches, and the disconnect between administrators, parents, and teachers when it comes to accountability.

Throughout, the trio stress the importance of mutual respect—among teachers, administrators, and parents—as the true key to school culture. They highlight how data-driven discipline policies, consistent leadership, and empathetic communication can help schools thrive.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a TOD episode without detours into chaos, creativity, and comedy—whether it's silent lunch punishments, or the infamous “shut up talking to me” student comeback that had everyone howling.

In this hilarious and unfiltered episode of Teachers Off Duty, the LADIES dive deep into how teachers are portrayed on TV—and how far from reality those depictions really are. From Miss Frizzle and Mr. Feeny to Abbott Elementary and Breaking Bad, no character is off limits. We’re talking unrealistic outfits, mysterious teacher lounges, magical classroom behavior, and how no one ever seems to be grading papers or making copies.

Plus, the crew shares their favorite (and least favorite) fictional teachers, reveals what it’s really like behind the scenes in schools across the country, and compares their everyday chaos to what Hollywood thinks education looks like. Spoiler alert: there are no vampires in our classrooms (yet).

If you've ever yelled “Where are the teachers?!” during your favorite teen drama, this episode is for you. Grab your purple pens and join us as we spill the truth—teacher style.
