In this final episode of their current podcast, Sue and Lisa announce they're taking a break to reimagine the show, returning in the fall with a fresh focus on life beyond the classroom. After four years of juggling hobbies, parenting, grandparenting, and podcasting, they’re shifting gears to share real, unfiltered stories about aging, lessons learned, and hilarious misadventures. They tease upcoming episodes filled with candid conversations about getting older, including unexpected experiences like surgeries, menopause, and body surprises no one warns you about. The hosts reflect on their 61-episode journey, thanking loyal listeners and encouraging them to share past episodes and send in ideas for the future. (email them at podcastwedidntknow@gmail.com) It's an honest, heartfelt farewell-for-now, with the promise of even more laughter and wisdom to come.

You Know You’re an Elementary Teacher If...

Welcome back to We Didn’t Know We Didn’t Know, the podcast where overworked teachers can laugh instead of cry (or cry while laughing—your choice).

In this episode, we break down the hilarity of You Know You’re an Elementary Teacher If... with four sidesplitting categories:

1️⃣ Skills We Never Knew We’d Need – Who knew cutting 32 Valentine hearts in record time and dodging glitter were Olympic-level events?

2️⃣ Holidays and Special Days Are Special – Where else does wearing a turkey hat count as a professional skill?

3️⃣ Teachers in the Wild – Yes, that was your student who shouted, “Hey, Mrs. Johnson!” while you were buying boxed wine in sweatpants.

4️⃣ Retirement Revelations – We may have retired, but why are we still mentally lining up strangers by height?

From accidental public teacher voice to still saving empty paper towel rolls “just in case,” we’re here to prove that once you’re a teacher, you’re always a teacher. Grab your coffee (or your boxed wine), and let’s laugh through the chaos together!
