This week Bri, Shelby, and Leslie Rob dive into the hilarious chaos of teacher duties that no one outside the classroom ever believes are real. From bathroom duty, hallway duty, and bus duty to tracking who vaped, who signed in, and whose parents forgot pick-up again, the crew unpacks all the wild responsibilities teachers are handed with zero warning. And of course, they sprinkle in the comedy, the storytelling, and the unfiltered truth that keeps this community feeling seen and understood.

The trio also dives deep into the comedy tour life — the cities they keep mispronouncing, the teacher homies who pregame a little too hard, the earring mishap mid-set, and how performing on stage has pushed them outside their comfort zones. They talk about confidence, introverted moments, the intensity of outdoor shows, and the supportive admins who make both teaching and touring possible. The conversation moves from chaotic classrooms to chaotic comedy clubs, reminding everyone why teacher humor is unmatched.
Along the way, they break down the impossible tasks teachers are asked to do, from disciplining kids during planning periods to handling medical issues, potty accidents, curriculum changes, and parent phone calls long after contract hours end. Whether you teach kindergarten or high school, ride a bus or run a classroom, this episode will have you laughing, nodding, and saying, "No other job expects this from us."

Classroom management feels different this year, and the Bored Teachers crew is saying it out loud. In this episode, Leslie, Bri, and Miss L break down the strategies that actually work when your students are loud, chaotic, unpredictable, and endlessly loveable. From resetting expectations to building routines that stick, they share real examples from their own classrooms — including PTO systems, class economies, workplace models, and the small changes that make a big difference.
The conversation gets honest about the challenges teachers are facing right now: inconsistency, shifting behaviors, emotional exhaustion, and how hard it is to teach when your tried-and-true methods suddenly stop working. They unpack what it means to remove emotion, stay consistent, and set clear boundaries, all while laugh-crying through stories about messy desks, hallway chaos, and one truly iconic water-spill wardrobe change.
Whether you teach kindergarten or high school, this episode gives you practical tools, new ideas, and the reassurance that you are not the only one feeling the shift this year. Drop your best classroom management strategies in the comments.

Classroom interruptions come in all shapes and sizes, and this week's episode of Bored Teachers Podcast proves it. Bri, Shelby and Leslie are back together swapping the most chaotic, hilarious, and downright unbelievable interruptions they've survived — from kids barging in mid-lesson, teachers accidentally derailing their own classes, and students showing up with Cheesecake Factory bags and Ulta hauls like it's nothing.
The crew also dives into deeper moments: vape culture, lockdown drill realities, and the wild world of high school chaos where showing up late with Chipotle is the least of anyone's worries. With honest stories, unfiltered laughs, and real talk about what teaching looks like in 2025, this episode is equal parts comedy and catharsis.
Drop your craziest classroom interruption in the comments so we can scream-laugh together.

Students really do say the wildest things. In this episode of Teachers Off Duty, Bri, Leslie and Shelby swap the most unhinged, hilarious, and brutally honest things their students have ever said that made them stop and think, "Did that really just come out of your mouth?"
From elementary oversharing and third grade math confusion to middle and high school sass, the crew breaks down how kids talk at different ages, why common sense is not always common, and how gentle parenting, learned helplessness, and a lack of life skills show up in the classroom. They also dive into state testing pressure, reality baby projects, and the emotional whiplash of being the adult in the room while trying not to laugh.

This week Bri, Anna, and Jessica dive into one of the hardest parts of the profession, TEACHER BURNOUT. From the nonstop chaos of the school day to the whirlwind of the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour, they unpack what burnout really feels like when you're teaching all day and still carrying the job home in your head and heart.



They share personal stories about student behavior, wild sub situations, safety scares, grading marathons, and the invisible mental load teachers carry while trying to stay "on" for their kids. The conversation highlights how teachers are expected to be entertainers, counselors, and classroom managers while running on empty and still worrying about their students' lives outside of school.
The crew also reflects on school safety, teacher pay, and the emotional toll of always being on high alert, especially in a world where teachers are too often dismissed when they speak up. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, exhausted, or unseen as an educator, this episode will make you feel understood, remind you you're not alone, and give you a chance to laugh through the chaos with people who truly get it.
