As we all know, an educator’s career is one of prestige, respect, and authority. Just kidding. Sure, there are lesson plans and inspirational posters. Book reports and detentions. But nobody tells you it’s also parents brawling in the parking lot, students unleashing live crickets during finals, and getting evaluated for “running a tight ship” while the ceiling literally leaks onto your head. Hosted by Andrea Forcum (aka @Educator Andrea on TikTok, former high school teacher and current professor at Indiana State University), How to Survive the Classroom is part advice column, part survival guide, and part group therapy. Each week, Andrea dons her trauma tiara to tackle call-ins and confessions from fellow educators (and brave educator allies). From hilarious war stories to brutal burnout moments, join us as we strategize, survive, and occasionally let out a good old-fashioned cathartic scream into the void. If you’ve ever Googled “how to professionally quit mid-semester” or seriously considered hiding in a supply closet, this show’s for you. Teaching may be a noble profession… but nobility doesn’t stop your classroom from catching on fire.© 2026 Human Content, Inc. and Educator Andrea Inc. All rights reserved.

  • Teacher Hangovers Are Real

    Teacher Hangovers Are Real
    2026/10/12
    Molly's back in sunglasses with a full-on teacher hangover, Gerry looks incredible (his words), and I've got a 50,000-student IU football tailgate story that involves a feverish six-year-old, a college guy leaning on our truck for an hour, and the Midwestern dads who live to direct parking lot traffic. We update on Scam Gate (the PSA is officially saving people), launch a new segment where we're breaking down Dead Poets Society next episode, debate whether applesauce is actually a sauce, and I share the moment my son made walrus teeth out of Twizzlers through his tighty-whities and then started eating them. Plus Gerry's mechanical bull weight-loss countdown, he's at 317.5 and the goal is 300. Takeaways: Sharing your embarrassing moments publicly matters. Molly's "Scam Gate" PSA has already kept multiple other professionals from falling for the exact same scam. The vulnerability is worth it. Teacher burnout isn't always about the kids. Molly's class is great, the exhaustion is coming from the extracurriculars, grad school, and the sheer sensory overload of the week. Watch for it, name it, nap through it. Honking at strangers leaning on your car is a gendered experience. Every man said "beep the horn immediately," every woman said "I'd just freeze." Pick your side. Take the parenting win where you can. Also, take the Twizzlers out of the child. Next episode we're breaking down Dead Poets Society as a teacher movie.

  • In Memory of Brooke Eby: The ALS Advocate Who Made the World Laugh

    In Memory of Brooke Eby: The ALS Advocate Who Made the World Laugh
    2026/10/09
    This week we're rereleasing my interview with Brooke Eby, who passed on October 1st after her powerful public fight with ALS. Brooke turned a terminal diagnosis into a platform for humor, visibility, and fundraising. In this conversation we talk about her journey from her first limp at 29 to diagnosis at 33, the dating-with-a-cane content that put her on everyone's TikTok, why she worked so hard to put a young face on an "old man's disease," and how a single Salesforce LinkedIn post turned into a half-million-dollar fundraiser and a nonprofit. Brooke always asked people to do one thing: give money so ALS research can finally move forward. Please donate at als.org in her memory. Takeaways: ALS research is still painfully underfunded. 90% of ALS cases are NOT genetic. Brooke's genius was making a terrifying diagnosis approachable. "You should always just ask." Brooke didn't want people walking on eggshells. ALS Together, is a huge part of her legacy. Visit alstogether.org to learn more. - Knoword is an online tool for creating fun vocabulary games.

  • The Worst Depictions of Teachers in Media

    The Worst Depictions of Teachers in Media
    2026/10/05
    The three of us are diving into everything from the trending "cringe teacher" videos going around TikTok to my viral Edgar Allan Poe lip sync to the very real truth that cringe teachers are the ONLY teachers our students actually remember 20 years later.We also unpack the horror weekend of my life. An off-brand YMCA where I fell 20 inches off a box jump onto my back and no one came to help me, followed by a Sunday that included both kids simultaneously vomiting AND having diarrhea, every drain in my house clogging, and my dog pooping on the carpet. My voodoo doll was dipped in feces, apparently.Then we get into the moment my six-year-old told two of my college students what he thinks is required for true love and bad teacher depictions in TV and movies Takeaways: Cringe teachers are memorable teachers. Kids build their own logic from what they see. Teachers, ask for help when you fall. Bad on-screen teacher depictions have real consequences If you can't handle a hypothetical conversation about student trauma, self-harm, or mental health crises, you cannot handle the reality of the classroom. -- Knoword is an online tool for creating fun vocabulary games.
