Mr. Moore seems to be the most accurate portrayal of an educator this far in the pod, but his students on the other hand. Sheesh. Get ready for Russian stereotypes, the pimping of a red-head, Quiet on the Set: the Dark Side of Children’s TV, the inability to navigate NYC, Coma by Robin Cook, Jamiroquai, bad quiz bowl questions, The Exorcist, too many glass windows for a classroom, two hot messes, a hidden camera, and sticky office supplies.

Exit Ticket: What’s the difference between Russian and American schools? Well it’s not the hacking and social media misinformation courses.

Miss Beadle was a mess. If she wasn’t falling out of a carriage, she was releasing her students to die in a blizzard. Along the way, we encounter dumb Able, dumb Carrie, popcorn sex, Charles’s fine ass, that bitch Mrs. Olsen, that bitch Nelly, clay voodoo dolls, a lesson in spelling three letter words, students drunk on whiskey and high on opium, a calendar Christmas gift in need of a trashcan, a shed almost catching on fire, pissed off widows, and Linus telling us the reason for the season.

Exit Ticket: The Blizzard episode was based on a real incident from 1888 and Ronnie has all the details. Would you have survived? What if you had whiskey and laudanum?

The Holdovers - What do you do when you’re tasked with watching the students stuck in an all boys school over Christmas? Well, besides staying drunk you also: enforce a daily regime, watch The Newlywed Game, break up fights, not investigate the smell of marijuana, spray yourself with Glade, give everyone Meditations as a present, visit the emergency room, lie to the medical staff, lie to a former peer about what you’re doing now-a-days, take a field trip to Boston, light cherries jubilee on the hood of your car, point out erotic pottery, and finally get in trouble with the principal.

Exit Ticket: As we head into the Christmas break, what is some advice to pass on to teachers in need of that all too short two week respite? The hosts have some.
