00:00:00,230 --> 00:00:01,650
Hello everyone. 
Welcome back to another episode.

2
00:00:01,660 --> 00:00:03,400
I just touched your knee. 
I'm so sorry. 

3
00:00:03,470 --> 00:00:05,700
Ohh deep sleep and feet. 
My name is Dylan. 

4
00:00:05,710 --> 00:00:06,680
My name is. 
Do that again. 

5
00:00:09,310 --> 00:00:11,860
Dylan hates touch, just to make 
it clear anyone else wouldn't 

6
00:00:11,870 --> 00:00:13,800
even think about. 
This, sorry, hates it. 

7
00:00:15,190 --> 00:00:17,500
This is I don't want to. 
Remember a time in the podcast 

8
00:00:17,510 --> 00:00:19,660
that was ages ago? 
I accidentally touched your foot

9
00:00:19,670 --> 00:00:21,570
with my foot. 
And we had we genuinely had to 

10
00:00:21,580 --> 00:00:23,900
stop. 
We had it for him off so much we

11
00:00:23,910 --> 00:00:26,420
had to stop. 
I don't like it whatsoever. 

12
00:00:27,300 --> 00:00:29,880
That made me feel really weird. 
Anyway, welcome back to another 

13
00:00:29,890 --> 00:00:30,770
episode. 
My name is Dylan. 

14
00:00:30,780 --> 00:00:32,430
I think I've done. 
That my name is Hayden. 

15
00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:34,750
Really thrown up now. 
Hello. 

16
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:36,750
You've clicked on this. 
I've really been put off. 

17
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,500
Now you know, you know what's 
going to happen. 

18
00:00:38,980 --> 00:00:41,260
We're talking about our 
favourite things this week, but 

19
00:00:41,270 --> 00:00:42,920
we're going to do our quick 
catch up as always. 

20
00:00:42,930 --> 00:00:44,380
I hope you guys are well, 
Hayden. 

21
00:00:44,390 --> 00:00:45,050
How are? 
You. 

22
00:00:45,100 --> 00:00:46,580
I'm good. 
We've got a mad week. 

23
00:00:46,590 --> 00:00:48,750
We've had a mad and I'm. 
I'm excited to tell you guys. 

24
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,340
About you gonna have to top me 
touching your knee that. 

25
00:00:51,350 --> 00:00:53,840
Whoa ohh. 
Doesn't get madder. 

26
00:00:53,850 --> 00:00:57,420
Than that's mad. 
But it's close so just quick 

27
00:00:57,430 --> 00:01:00,540
story just I've sat here 
yesterday in this office just 

28
00:01:00,550 --> 00:01:03,940
doing some work about midday and
all I heard outside was this 

29
00:01:03,950 --> 00:01:06,740
massive crash, but it sounded 
like someone had dropped like 

30
00:01:06,750 --> 00:01:09,000
loads of glass sound like loads 
of glass smashing. 

31
00:01:09,010 --> 00:01:11,130
I was expecting to look out 
there and for some reason 

32
00:01:11,140 --> 00:01:12,490
someone got a massive creative 
glass and. 

33
00:01:12,500 --> 00:01:14,390
They've just dropped it and 
there's a whole pub of people 

34
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:21,230
going standing around. 
Ohh dear and I didn't. 

35
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,820
I looked out and a red van had 
just ploughed into. 

36
00:01:25,910 --> 00:01:28,000
Unbelievable. 
Parked cars outside my house 

37
00:01:28,010 --> 00:01:29,840
but. 
There's just mad cause I've I've

38
00:01:29,850 --> 00:01:31,940
seen it cause you've got. 
Footage Yeah, I've got a camera 

39
00:01:31,950 --> 00:01:33,250
outside the house. 
I've looked at it. 

40
00:01:33,260 --> 00:01:35,170
I've, I've, I've ran out. 
First we have to go and see 

41
00:01:35,180 --> 00:01:37,020
this. 
Ohh, I think I'll just check 

42
00:01:37,030 --> 00:01:39,240
what's on the old camera. 
What happened here? 

43
00:01:39,250 --> 00:01:41,280
Looking at the footage to see 
the van crashing. 

44
00:01:41,290 --> 00:01:42,290
Into the. 
Get the fridge in the 

45
00:01:42,300 --> 00:01:43,750
background. 
Out of focus is just the 

46
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,650
wreckage and the. 
Bloke, but the guy was start of 

47
00:01:46,660 --> 00:01:47,920
this. 
The guy was absolutely fine. 

48
00:01:47,930 --> 00:01:49,850
Completely fine. 
Airbags saved his life. 

49
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,290
This advert for airbags and 
never seen. 

50
00:01:51,300 --> 00:01:53,510
Yeah, but yeah, I don't know 
what happened. 

51
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:54,600
He doesn't really know what 
happened. 

52
00:01:54,610 --> 00:01:56,930
I I think maybe he blacked out. 
Yeah, because when we're looking

53
00:01:56,940 --> 00:01:59,350
at the footage, he is driving at
30 miles per. 

54
00:01:59,360 --> 00:01:59,880
Hour. 
It's like. 

55
00:01:59,890 --> 00:02:01,330
It's like he doesn't think the 
cars are. 

56
00:02:01,340 --> 00:02:05,690
There he just and and he just 
veers like head on. 

57
00:02:05,700 --> 00:02:08,320
It's not he just clips them. 
You know when you hit a wing 

58
00:02:08,330 --> 00:02:11,120
mirror before, where I've 
misjudged the space, he is like 

59
00:02:11,130 --> 00:02:14,440
full on, head on headlights, the
headlights, just 30 miles an 

60
00:02:14,450 --> 00:02:16,750
hour, ploughs into the parked 
cars outside my house. 

61
00:02:16,790 --> 00:02:18,900
And you can't park there, Sir. 
You can't. 

62
00:02:18,910 --> 00:02:20,180
You cannot part. 
That's the. 

63
00:02:20,310 --> 00:02:22,800
All I said to him was that I 
went out there sorry Sir, can't 

64
00:02:22,810 --> 00:02:24,860
park there. 
No, I went out and obviously 

65
00:02:24,870 --> 00:02:26,620
thinking, oh God, I don't want 
state this guy's gonna. 

66
00:02:26,630 --> 00:02:29,100
Be a picture of you marching out
like you mean business. 

67
00:02:29,110 --> 00:02:30,320
Yeah. 
Yeah, it's really good. 

68
00:02:30,330 --> 00:02:33,400
It's like, I will help. 
I am the hero the city needs. 

69
00:02:33,410 --> 00:02:34,820
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
But even when I was walking 

70
00:02:34,830 --> 00:02:36,450
towards the car, I could see 
through the back window that he 

71
00:02:36,460 --> 00:02:37,800
was moving around. 
I was like, straight away. 

72
00:02:37,810 --> 00:02:39,600
I was like, OK, right, He's OK 
That's all you really care 

73
00:02:39,610 --> 00:02:40,580
about. 
Went to the passenger window. 

74
00:02:40,590 --> 00:02:42,310
I was like, I don't know what to
say. 

75
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,620
I just like, are you OK? 
It was my first thing. 

76
00:02:44,630 --> 00:02:45,630
I was like, should we get you 
out this? 

77
00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:50,230
Should do I? 
Look, OK, look at my van and sat

78
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,170
him outside on the wall and you 
know, checked, checked him over.

79
00:02:53,180 --> 00:02:55,050
Teacher instincts. 
Came in to get blue paper towel 

80
00:02:55,060 --> 00:02:55,850
for the van. 
I did. 

81
00:02:55,860 --> 00:02:57,250
I did get wet Paper towel. 
Yeah. 

82
00:02:57,260 --> 00:02:58,670
Luckily it helped. 
It did. 

83
00:02:58,680 --> 00:02:59,870
But he was. 
He was. 

84
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:03,950
I was surprised how unhappy he 
was, considering he just went 30

85
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,670
miles an hour into a part 
object. 

86
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,950
Goes house how like the safety 
features and stuff like the 

87
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,230
crumples crumple. 
Zones. 

88
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,200
I mean, I've got a picture of 
the car that he went into, so 

89
00:03:12,210 --> 00:03:14,320
maybe I'll share that because 
just so you can see how the 

90
00:03:14,330 --> 00:03:17,910
crumple zones just completely 
absorb the impact but just stop 

91
00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:20,130
it off. 
Last bit of this story, how 

92
00:03:20,140 --> 00:03:23,000
livid would you be? 
He he he obviously rammed into 

93
00:03:23,010 --> 00:03:25,030
one car, which then shunted into
the car behind it. 

94
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,720
There were just two cars parked.
Both of the cars belonged to my 

95
00:03:28,730 --> 00:03:31,540
neighbour from across the road. 
Both cars were there. 

96
00:03:31,790 --> 00:03:34,860
It is there like 6th and 7th car
though on the on the road. 

97
00:03:35,430 --> 00:03:37,230
Yeah. 
Ohh no the car right? 

98
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:38,860
Never drive and just park there 
constantly. 

99
00:03:40,450 --> 00:03:41,750
Better against my neighbours 
because. 

100
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,120
It's always there and I wanna 
park and I have to park over 

101
00:03:44,130 --> 00:03:46,330
your drive and it's always 
there. 

102
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:47,830
It's kind of what do you guys 
think about this? 

103
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,810
I wanna, I wanna put this 
situation out here. 

104
00:03:49,940 --> 00:03:52,700
Neighbours across the road, they
have a driveway, but they have 

105
00:03:52,740 --> 00:03:54,450
so they have their car on the on
the driveway. 

106
00:03:54,460 --> 00:03:57,510
They have two cars in the 
driveway, but they have six, no,

107
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,660
five other cars that they park 
on the on the road as well. 

108
00:04:01,670 --> 00:04:04,730
Like taking up basically 
everybody of the free spaces. 

109
00:04:04,740 --> 00:04:07,350
Everybody outside spaces. 
Yeah, and not everyone has a 

110
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,720
driver on our Rd. 
When we moved in, we only had a 

111
00:04:09,730 --> 00:04:11,340
driver enough for one car we 
built. 

112
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,100
We extended it so we could get 
both our cars. 

113
00:04:13,110 --> 00:04:15,530
Yeah, I don't know. 
Because that space didn't exist.

114
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,329
And it's like, well, it's all 
taxed and no one owns the road. 

115
00:04:18,420 --> 00:04:19,730
I know. 
Yeah, OK. 

116
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,550
Obviously what they're doing is 
not illegal. 

117
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,610
No. 
But like, come on, Do you need 

118
00:04:24,620 --> 00:04:27,850
seven cars? 
Yeah, I do find it a bit odd. 

119
00:04:27,860 --> 00:04:30,270
It does just constantly take up 
everyone else thinks because I 

120
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:32,760
lived on a terraced Rd 
beforehand where you basically 

121
00:04:32,770 --> 00:04:35,390
just there was no parking for 
anyone who was just first come 

122
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,610
first served and outside of our 
house was constantly this big 

123
00:04:38,620 --> 00:04:41,100
Volkswagen. 
Like what's it called the people

124
00:04:41,110 --> 00:04:44,930
carrier version and a Volkswagen
Beetle in front of it owned by 

125
00:04:44,940 --> 00:04:46,760
the same person who literally 
just liked having them. 

126
00:04:46,770 --> 00:04:47,960
They never went anywhere. 
Yeah, I never. 

127
00:04:47,970 --> 00:04:51,170
Thought they had a new version 
of a Volkswagen big van as well 

128
00:04:51,180 --> 00:04:53,180
but they actually use that. 
They actually used and it's it's

129
00:04:53,190 --> 00:04:55,060
old thing. 
And I was like, oh, OK, I I get 

130
00:04:55,070 --> 00:04:57,490
you're not doing anything wrong 
technically, but for five years?

131
00:04:57,570 --> 00:04:59,890
That was just outside. 
Yeah, that that that is not the 

132
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:02,720
kind of road and house to live 
on when you're gonna have three 

133
00:05:02,730 --> 00:05:04,330
or four cars. 
Yeah, because you are. 

134
00:05:04,340 --> 00:05:05,930
Just because realistically, what
is? 

135
00:05:05,940 --> 00:05:08,310
If you think about the terrace 
houses, there's there's like 1 

136
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:09,990
space. 
Outside one space and we had two

137
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,990
cars and a lot of people have 
two cars these days and that's 

138
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,610
fine. 
I never never begged it and I 

139
00:05:13,620 --> 00:05:16,370
don't ever expect to park in 
front of my own house. 

140
00:05:16,380 --> 00:05:17,290
That's not. 
That's not. 

141
00:05:17,300 --> 00:05:21,080
People did but like when like 3 
spaces are constantly taken and 

142
00:05:21,090 --> 00:05:22,870
they're just using. 
That's what I mean they're 

143
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,940
storing vehicles. 
It might as well be a statue 

144
00:05:24,950 --> 00:05:25,990
that built on the road. 
Yeah. 

145
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,260
Doesn't feature in the. 
I just think it's rude. 

146
00:05:29,310 --> 00:05:30,490
Yeah, basically that's it. 
I don't. 

147
00:05:30,500 --> 00:05:31,980
There's no nothing illegal about
it. 

148
00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:33,250
No. 
Same thing. 

149
00:05:33,260 --> 00:05:36,870
That's my house with like the, 
the there's these must, you must

150
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,240
be like 1819. 
Just like to drive constantly 

151
00:05:40,290 --> 00:05:43,340
coming home at like half 1011 or
leaving at like 5:00 in the 

152
00:05:43,350 --> 00:05:47,500
morning must be for work. 
Blasting his music like the bass

153
00:05:47,510 --> 00:05:50,540
reverberates through the street.
And it's like, that's just rude.

154
00:05:50,550 --> 00:05:52,320
I think we should start. 
I've realised how old we are. 

155
00:05:52,810 --> 00:05:54,560
Sounds so old. 
I know. 

156
00:05:54,570 --> 00:05:56,000
And again, I I did the same 
thing. 

157
00:05:56,010 --> 00:05:58,180
So I'm not actually annoyed at 
the person whatsoever, but I'm 

158
00:05:58,260 --> 00:06:01,500
it's like I think it would have 
crossed my mind if it was half 

159
00:06:01,510 --> 00:06:03,180
11. 
Yeah, and not I. 

160
00:06:03,190 --> 00:06:05,980
Think I would just turn it down 
a bit, you know. 

161
00:06:05,990 --> 00:06:08,030
You're super conscious of that 
sort of stuff, though I've been 

162
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,690
asked before and I've, I've put 
something on that. 

163
00:06:09,700 --> 00:06:11,560
I think it's completely 
suitable, you know, Turn it 

164
00:06:11,570 --> 00:06:12,160
down, turn it. 
Down. 

165
00:06:12,170 --> 00:06:14,380
Because I hate the idea of being
a hypocrite because it's like, 

166
00:06:14,390 --> 00:06:16,640
Oh my God, it's so annoying. 
Then I'm there going boom, boom,

167
00:06:16,900 --> 00:06:18,230
boom. 
Yeah. 

168
00:06:18,390 --> 00:06:20,080
Also, I grew up with three 
younger sisters. 

169
00:06:20,170 --> 00:06:25,330
Constant High School Musical. 
They have just sitting. 

170
00:06:25,340 --> 00:06:27,030
We be quiet for a minute. 
Let me play Call of Duty. 

171
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,460
Please. 
They listen to this podcast and 

172
00:06:28,470 --> 00:06:30,660
they didn't tell us what you 
think. 

173
00:06:30,670 --> 00:06:32,710
They're probably they're 
probably paused it to put on the

174
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,390
High School Musical soundtrack 
and have a little things. 

175
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,540
On Yeah, still love it. 
Anyway, that's one thing about 

176
00:06:37,550 --> 00:06:39,520
my week. 
I need to have my and you know 

177
00:06:39,530 --> 00:06:43,330
that this is, well people 
ongoing story and this is the 

178
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,260
one time when my trolling of 
Hayden absolutely 100% paid off 

179
00:06:47,270 --> 00:06:49,010
and it did better than ever 
before. 

180
00:06:49,020 --> 00:06:52,160
So here's the story. 
We're doing maths and as you 

181
00:06:52,170 --> 00:06:55,980
know a big part of my practise 
and headers practise is is quite

182
00:06:55,990 --> 00:06:58,590
simply just we OK, We we know we
can teach well. 

183
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,790
I love the idea of just making 
sure the children have fun at 

184
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,530
all times and let's let's be 
real for a second. 

185
00:07:04,590 --> 00:07:07,870
Maths can be quite dry sometimes
you're doing a small step with a

186
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,110
group of children who don't 
quite get it all the time and 

187
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,830
needs a lot of support. 
They've got to do a lot of 

188
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,930
practise of the same thing, so 
I'm looking for anything to hook

189
00:07:14,940 --> 00:07:17,750
onto in that lesson just to 
engage them and make them laugh 

190
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,130
A. 
Little bit done, the bookmarks. 

191
00:07:20,510 --> 00:07:22,650
Bold, already under the sad 
face. 

192
00:07:22,660 --> 00:07:25,340
Yeah, yeah, there's loads of 
stuff that we've done for our. 

193
00:07:25,350 --> 00:07:29,180
So this time what happened is 
I've, I've merged into what you 

194
00:07:29,190 --> 00:07:30,960
do. 
Basically any kind of character 

195
00:07:30,970 --> 00:07:33,580
or monster or thing or whatever 
it is on the board is now Mr 

196
00:07:33,590 --> 00:07:36,560
Stevens, especially if they come
across as bold. 

197
00:07:36,730 --> 00:07:39,540
So we're doing White Rose maths.
Anyone who also does White Rose 

198
00:07:39,550 --> 00:07:41,980
maths knows there's a mascot. 
Tiny the tortoise or turtle. 

199
00:07:41,990 --> 00:07:45,570
I don't know what tortoise. 
OK And who always gets things 

200
00:07:45,580 --> 00:07:46,860
wrong. 
That's the joke. 

201
00:07:47,190 --> 00:07:49,520
Fantastic, because he looks like
a little bold green alien, 

202
00:07:49,570 --> 00:07:52,090
right? 
So he pops up and says something

203
00:07:52,100 --> 00:07:54,150
completely nonsense about We've 
just been looking at and they 

204
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,520
need to reason as to why it's 
wrong. 

205
00:07:55,790 --> 00:08:00,320
So it comes up and I go, ohh, 
here he is, here he is again, Mr

206
00:08:00,330 --> 00:08:02,820
Stevens, like that and they're 
like, oh. 

207
00:08:02,860 --> 00:08:04,840
I'm sure they love. 
That because Mrs Stevens always 

208
00:08:04,850 --> 00:08:06,340
gets it wrong and it's really 
funny. 

209
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,700
And I said to Yeah Yep. 
Guys listen, just calm down for 

210
00:08:09,710 --> 00:08:10,790
a minute. 
I'm going to tell you something 

211
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,190
I've never told anyone and this 
is this is like this is top 

212
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,310
secret. 
And I I need you to do a mission

213
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,690
for me afterwards. 
So I need you to know that that 

214
00:08:18,700 --> 00:08:22,210
is actually Mr Stevens and 
that's him when he was younger. 

215
00:08:22,220 --> 00:08:25,290
He's obviously grown up now but 
he he does actually have green 

216
00:08:25,300 --> 00:08:27,780
skin like genuinely. 
And they're like no he doesn't. 

217
00:08:27,790 --> 00:08:30,250
I'm like no, I'm going to 
serious No, no, no, listen. 

218
00:08:30,260 --> 00:08:31,620
And you can't. 
You can't go around telling 

219
00:08:31,630 --> 00:08:34,370
everyone He really tries to 
cover up what you need to do, 

220
00:08:34,380 --> 00:08:37,110
guys, what you need to do. 
What I'm saying. 

221
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,030
If someone shows that like Shrek
and I was like, yeah, exactly. 

222
00:08:41,380 --> 00:08:43,260
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's exactly 
the same. 

223
00:08:43,350 --> 00:08:46,740
I said, next time you see him, 
listen, don't give it away. 

224
00:08:46,750 --> 00:08:50,260
You need to be really secretive.
But just look at the back of his

225
00:08:50,270 --> 00:08:52,140
neck. 
Because what he does, he puts 

226
00:08:52,150 --> 00:08:54,680
makeup on to cover his green. 
But I've seen it before. 

227
00:08:54,690 --> 00:08:56,200
He just forgets the back of his 
neck. 

228
00:08:56,450 --> 00:08:59,080
So you really carefully, next 
time you see him, just take a 

229
00:08:59,090 --> 00:09:00,710
little sneak peek. 
Don't tell him you're doing it. 

230
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:01,950
Just look at the back of his 
neck. 

231
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,220
You might see a line of green. 
I did all of this for, Almost 

232
00:09:06,230 --> 00:09:08,460
forgot about it. 
Hayden and I had dinner the 

233
00:09:08,470 --> 00:09:12,490
other night. 
He brought it up and and hated 

234
00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:14,650
you went. 
Well, I'll tell myself the story

235
00:09:14,660 --> 00:09:16,240
now. 
I was like, no, this makes so 

236
00:09:16,250 --> 00:09:18,830
much sense because it's the 
first time I can honestly say I 

237
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,350
got got. 
I always know when the kids are 

238
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:22,630
getting me and I just play along
with it. 

239
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,550
This time they completely got 
me. 

240
00:09:24,560 --> 00:09:26,510
I didn't even suspect. 
Anything to the point where you 

241
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:27,830
went to check? 
Yeah. 

242
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,950
So these kids, I was walking 
back. 

243
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,970
I just had my lunch, right? 
So it's in the lunch hour. 

244
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:33,200
I'd eat my lunch in the staff 
room. 

245
00:09:33,210 --> 00:09:35,190
I was walking back towards my 
classroom. 

246
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,070
Which isn't as far away. 
From You have to walk a little 

247
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,290
bit outside to get there as 
well. 

248
00:09:39,300 --> 00:09:41,930
So the kids are outside playing 
and there was there was a few 

249
00:09:42,020 --> 00:09:43,620
girls I think, I can't remember 
now. 

250
00:09:43,750 --> 00:09:45,900
I guess from your class you 
didn't recognise? 

251
00:09:45,910 --> 00:09:47,940
I didn't recognise it really. 
But they obviously was a year 

252
00:09:47,950 --> 00:09:52,790
four and they sort of giggled at
me and I was like alright, girls

253
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,260
like you are thinking or 
whatever. 

254
00:09:54,550 --> 00:09:58,050
And then as I carried on 
walking, they're such good 

255
00:09:58,060 --> 00:10:00,310
acting from them. 
One of them, without making it 

256
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,590
really obvious, just went, Oh 
yeah, to a Frenchman. 

257
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,880
Yeah, he does have a bit of 
green on his neck, but I hadn't 

258
00:10:06,890 --> 00:10:09,160
like I'd already what It was 
good timing because I wasn't 

259
00:10:09,170 --> 00:10:11,050
still engaging with them. 
If they did that, I probably 

260
00:10:11,060 --> 00:10:13,120
would have a bit more obvious 
now that clearly trying to troll

261
00:10:13,130 --> 00:10:14,480
me. 
But they said it when I was 

262
00:10:14,490 --> 00:10:17,340
walking away and I didn't. 
I didn't even look back. 

263
00:10:17,410 --> 00:10:19,820
I just heard it and thought, 
what you don't. 

264
00:10:19,950 --> 00:10:22,000
And then I thought, oh, when I 
did walk through the dinner 

265
00:10:22,010 --> 00:10:25,280
hall, I did see a couple of, 
like, kids or snigger at me and 

266
00:10:25,290 --> 00:10:27,760
they were looking at me like 
looking around my head area. 

267
00:10:28,030 --> 00:10:30,710
I am an ogre. 
So I went and checked my neck 

268
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,550
and I was trying to rub off some
green. 

269
00:10:32,610 --> 00:10:34,460
I was thinking, have I got my 
highlighter on there or 

270
00:10:34,470 --> 00:10:36,260
something like. 
Green paint on my neck. 

271
00:10:36,570 --> 00:10:39,230
Probably my neck trying to find 
all this green and I was 

272
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,230
thinking, there's nothing there.
Stupid kid, someone say making 

273
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,250
up this rubbish? 
What you talking about? 

274
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,810
Best thing I've ever done that's
that's the number one thing 

275
00:10:46,820 --> 00:10:48,870
ever. 
And like I think it was your 

276
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,310
your Lauren said you should on 
Monday put a bit of green 

277
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,160
highlight around. 
I'm going to do it. 

278
00:10:55,170 --> 00:10:57,170
I'll update you guys next week. 
That works so well. 

279
00:10:57,180 --> 00:10:58,570
Just again, another off the cuff
thing. 

280
00:10:58,580 --> 00:10:59,630
Really funny. 
Yeah. 

281
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,100
Anyway, let's crack on. 
Hayden, you wanted to talk about

282
00:11:02,110 --> 00:11:03,360
PE? 
Yeah, just just a really quick 

283
00:11:03,370 --> 00:11:04,730
one. 
It's just about my week. 

284
00:11:04,740 --> 00:11:06,450
I just wanted to say because 
we've discussed this in the 

285
00:11:06,460 --> 00:11:08,230
past. 
This week for the first time in 

286
00:11:08,540 --> 00:11:12,670
honestly years, I did PE a joint
with another teacher and this 

287
00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:16,500
guy is a is a sports coach and 
so professional, highly highly 

288
00:11:16,510 --> 00:11:19,210
trained professional P teacher 
and I did P with him because it 

289
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:20,970
was raining outside. 
Listen to the podcast sometimes.

290
00:11:20,980 --> 00:11:24,630
Yeah, yeah, it's it's got you 
listen to the podcast and we did

291
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,780
P together and I was just 
watching him setting up these 

292
00:11:26,790 --> 00:11:29,500
activities and just doing just 
teaching PS and thinking Oh my 

293
00:11:29,510 --> 00:11:33,380
God, it does, it does pay off 
when you have a professional 

294
00:11:33,460 --> 00:11:36,020
because we've talked about 
haven't we about like oh, we are

295
00:11:36,030 --> 00:11:38,210
actually just professionals in 
every single subject though it 

296
00:11:38,220 --> 00:11:40,020
does kind of work. 
Have a specialist. 

297
00:11:40,030 --> 00:11:41,310
That's what I meant to say. 
Specialist. 

298
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,020
And he's a specialist. 
And I was like, ohh, it just 

299
00:11:43,030 --> 00:11:46,510
reminded me that, yeah, like the
fact that funding's gone. 

300
00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:49,950
Yeah, to crap. 
Yeah, it is a shame because they

301
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,310
would, these kids would benefit 
from a specialist in multiple 

302
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,570
subjects. 
We just can't afford it. 

303
00:11:53,580 --> 00:11:55,470
So we have to pretend that we 
can do it, yeah. 

304
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,370
Yeah, it's just crazy you have 
pretending that we can possibly 

305
00:11:58,380 --> 00:12:00,100
deliver app lesson to the same 
level we can. 

306
00:12:00,110 --> 00:12:03,380
Deliver and was there One of the
sports coaches that you had, 

307
00:12:03,390 --> 00:12:06,290
apprentice and new apprentice 
you had with him was an ex 

308
00:12:06,300 --> 00:12:08,320
pupil. 
From my first year, I saw this 

309
00:12:08,330 --> 00:12:10,440
girl in year four. 
That made me feel. 

310
00:12:10,450 --> 00:12:14,250
Old she was. 
Like 8-8 years old and she's now

311
00:12:14,260 --> 00:12:16,380
17. 
Like wow yes, my nine years of 

312
00:12:16,390 --> 00:12:17,820
teaching. 
Yeah yeah that made me feel 

313
00:12:17,830 --> 00:12:19,050
really old. 
But it was really nice and it 

314
00:12:19,060 --> 00:12:21,300
will lead on to one of my points
later in the episode really 

315
00:12:21,310 --> 00:12:22,220
nicely. 
So I'll save it. 

316
00:12:22,230 --> 00:12:25,080
Ohh OK then. 
Yeah, last thing for me, we went

317
00:12:25,090 --> 00:12:27,120
swimming this week and again, 
this links into something we'll 

318
00:12:27,130 --> 00:12:29,260
talk about later. 
Making those links, guys, making

319
00:12:29,270 --> 00:12:32,160
you stick around, you know, 
because you wanna that retention

320
00:12:32,170 --> 00:12:33,750
curve. 
Anyway, we went swimming with 

321
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,240
the children in year four in our
school. 

322
00:12:36,250 --> 00:12:37,990
They go swimming. 
They loved it. 

323
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,630
I'm going to talk more about it 
later, but classic me. 

324
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:45,400
Three of us went this. 
This is me all over beforehand. 

325
00:12:45,530 --> 00:12:47,370
I printed off the e-mail because
I am scattered. 

326
00:12:47,380 --> 00:12:50,220
I'm just a classic scatter I 
forget my own head if it wasn't 

327
00:12:50,230 --> 00:12:52,940
on my body. 
And I printed off the e-mail 

328
00:12:52,950 --> 00:12:55,790
that head of Year 7, which was 
really clear and I didn't even 

329
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,760
just have that. 
I went through it myself and 

330
00:12:57,770 --> 00:12:59,140
highlighted the key things I 
need to. 

331
00:12:59,150 --> 00:13:01,270
Remember what you need. 
To do for two reasons, because 

332
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,010
one, that act of highlighting 
made it go into my head. 

333
00:13:03,020 --> 00:13:06,660
More Did you leave all the kids?
And yeah, I didn't bring the 

334
00:13:06,670 --> 00:13:08,600
kids, just me and free swim 
teachers. 

335
00:13:08,610 --> 00:13:10,720
Brought back some other kids 
from my school. 

336
00:13:10,730 --> 00:13:12,490
Who are you giving them? 
Off you go. 

337
00:13:13,850 --> 00:13:15,850
Yeah, so I I highlighted it and 
I had it all. 

338
00:13:15,860 --> 00:13:17,800
Really clear the timings and 
what I needed to take. 

339
00:13:18,510 --> 00:13:20,580
Took, took the medical box. 
Took took. 

340
00:13:20,590 --> 00:13:22,500
Make sure it helped the caps 
with their spare caps for the 

341
00:13:22,510 --> 00:13:25,040
children have caps. 
I've paired them all up nicely 

342
00:13:25,050 --> 00:13:26,610
so they've got theirs. 
I've seen who's not here. 

343
00:13:26,620 --> 00:13:28,770
I've done a new register with 
this free free stuff. 

344
00:13:28,780 --> 00:13:30,160
I've I've photocopied 
everything. 

345
00:13:30,170 --> 00:13:31,020
All nice. 
Perfect. 

346
00:13:31,030 --> 00:13:32,920
Went to the coach, got there. 
Amazing. 

347
00:13:32,930 --> 00:13:34,960
Got changed nice and quick. 
We did the swimming lesson. 

348
00:13:34,970 --> 00:13:36,350
Super perfect. 
Happy. 

349
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:37,900
It going perfectly. 
Did a good job. 

350
00:13:37,910 --> 00:13:40,420
I went off to with the first of 
the boys so they could get 

351
00:13:40,430 --> 00:13:43,680
changed and our teaching system 
went off with the first of the 

352
00:13:43,690 --> 00:13:46,890
girls and then our deputy head 
who came along to help as well. 

353
00:13:46,970 --> 00:13:48,810
Hmm. 
We've seen in the last few out 

354
00:13:48,820 --> 00:13:51,670
of the pool to come and join us.
Got ready, beat the girls. 

355
00:13:51,680 --> 00:13:53,480
Did a little bit of a race as 
you can see and get ready. 

356
00:13:53,490 --> 00:13:55,370
First one out there. 
Yeah, he beat the girls. 

357
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:56,970
Girls came out like a minute 
after. 

358
00:13:56,980 --> 00:13:57,970
It's cool. 
We're on time. 

359
00:13:57,980 --> 00:13:59,840
Let's go. 
We went into the, went on to the

360
00:13:59,850 --> 00:14:01,850
bus. 
Fantastic, cool. 

361
00:14:01,860 --> 00:14:04,240
Got, got back. 
All the kids went there. 

362
00:14:04,250 --> 00:14:05,410
Nothing wrong. 
Very good lessons. 

363
00:14:05,420 --> 00:14:07,670
Yeah, fantastic. 
They then the office staff came 

364
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:09,530
to me and said you left the 
medical box at the swimming. 

365
00:14:09,540 --> 00:14:12,350
Pool, you idiot. 
Ohh the medical box. 

366
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,640
Ohh medical box that has to be 
in school tomorrow when I'm not 

367
00:14:15,650 --> 00:14:17,900
God when I'm not in because my 
last day is Wednesday. 

368
00:14:17,910 --> 00:14:20,130
Ohh, that's alright. 
Ohh, that's right. 

369
00:14:20,140 --> 00:14:21,520
I'll just drive back to this 
number. 

370
00:14:21,530 --> 00:14:23,690
Big happy to come back to school
after it's no problem. 

371
00:14:23,700 --> 00:14:25,680
So the the other than a. 
Child, The worst thing you 

372
00:14:25,690 --> 00:14:26,620
could. 
Possibly, Yeah, Yeah. 

373
00:14:26,630 --> 00:14:27,140
Yeah. 
Ohh. 

374
00:14:27,150 --> 00:14:29,200
God, I forgot the Ohh. 
No, the child's here. 

375
00:14:29,250 --> 00:14:32,030
Thank goodness they're 
medicines, not Ohh they need. 

376
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,640
That that's all that is like, 
objectively for take away the 

377
00:14:34,650 --> 00:14:37,460
joke for 2nd, that's terrible. 
Right. 

378
00:14:37,470 --> 00:14:40,120
Like if you think about if I 
hadn't gone back to get it 

379
00:14:40,300 --> 00:14:42,640
because it all been gone home by
then, I hadn't gone back to get 

380
00:14:42,650 --> 00:14:45,360
it. 
So they had it when they would 

381
00:14:45,370 --> 00:14:46,660
have needed it swimming, no 
problem. 

382
00:14:46,710 --> 00:14:49,820
Yeah, but if I hadn't gone back 
that next day, if I hadn't 

383
00:14:49,830 --> 00:14:51,530
remembered, or if. 
They hadn't had the medical 

384
00:14:51,540 --> 00:14:53,580
boxing. 
Literally they have medical box 

385
00:14:53,590 --> 00:14:56,320
in school, so it just goes to 
show guys be super vigilant. 

386
00:14:56,330 --> 00:14:59,590
Don't be like me. 
Write things down and that's 

387
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,070
that's one of the things I love.
So you prioritise and write. 

388
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:03,970
Things. 
That is probably the perfect 

389
00:15:03,980 --> 00:15:06,830
analogy of you, isn't it? 
Yeah, around my house. 

390
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,540
It's really funny. 
You're better at it now because 

391
00:15:08,550 --> 00:15:09,930
you bought off thing for your 
keys. 

392
00:15:10,260 --> 00:15:14,090
That was life changing. 
By the way, Dylan, I don't 

393
00:15:14,100 --> 00:15:15,910
understand. 
I don't understand you because I

394
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,750
feel like it's so habit. 
Like imagine if everyone 

395
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,270
listening right when you come 
in, does your your keys and 

396
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,490
purse and bag or wallet, 
whatever it is, just go in the 

397
00:15:23,500 --> 00:15:25,760
same place every single day 
without even thinking? 

398
00:15:26,020 --> 00:15:27,740
Yes, of course they do. 
That would be convenient. 

399
00:15:27,750 --> 00:15:31,320
Dylan come round and his keys 
could be anywhere, anywhere in 

400
00:15:31,330 --> 00:15:32,400
the house. 
I'm not even joking. 

401
00:15:32,410 --> 00:15:34,010
Like the weirdest place you can 
think of. 

402
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,650
For some reason at that point in
time, he subconsciously went oh,

403
00:15:37,660 --> 00:15:40,230
I put my keys there and then 
can't find them. 

404
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,230
Little game to play in it every 
time I come out. 

405
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,620
He's had to put a little fob on 
his keys that he can ring the. 

406
00:15:46,070 --> 00:15:47,720
Life find them. 
It's called a tile. 

407
00:15:47,730 --> 00:15:49,420
If anyone does what I do, get a 
tile. 

408
00:15:49,470 --> 00:15:50,920
It's called tile. 
Little white thing. 

409
00:15:50,990 --> 00:15:53,530
I press the thing on my phone 
and it and it goes. 

410
00:15:53,590 --> 00:15:55,260
The only thing is I lost my 
phone as well. 

411
00:15:55,270 --> 00:15:56,340
Yeah, and I've. 
Seen you do that. 

412
00:15:56,350 --> 00:15:58,560
I've seen him do that. 
Ohh where my keys when I get my 

413
00:15:58,570 --> 00:16:01,960
phone because I can my keys ohh 
my phone ohh let me get my keys 

414
00:16:01,970 --> 00:16:04,220
cause press the button because 
you can press the button on your

415
00:16:04,230 --> 00:16:06,280
keys and your phone goes off no 
way and you press the button on 

416
00:16:06,290 --> 00:16:07,520
your phone your keys. 
You lost them both. 

417
00:16:07,530 --> 00:16:08,650
But if you. 
Lose them both. 

418
00:16:08,660 --> 00:16:12,830
You just gotta walk home. 
So funny, does it all the. 

419
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,300
Time, right? 
Anyway, that's been a longer 

420
00:16:14,310 --> 00:16:15,600
catch up then I think we 
anticipated. 

421
00:16:15,610 --> 00:16:17,720
Yeah. 
Shall we crack on to the main 

422
00:16:17,730 --> 00:16:18,980
part of this? 
Yeah. 

423
00:16:18,990 --> 00:16:20,610
I was gonna say lesson again 
This lesson. 

424
00:16:20,620 --> 00:16:21,710
Yeah, it's. 
Called message. 

425
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,500
We call them lessons now guys, 
alright that customers listen, 

426
00:16:24,510 --> 00:16:26,860
yeah, we've made-up a few terms 
over the over the years. 

427
00:16:26,870 --> 00:16:28,470
We haven't. 
We underfed. 

428
00:16:28,610 --> 00:16:31,660
It's been every year now. 
Years. 

429
00:16:31,670 --> 00:16:34,360
One of those years, yeah. 
Yeah, Do you know 1:00? 

430
00:16:34,370 --> 00:16:36,130
We we can stop. 
Like, when a toddler gets the 

431
00:16:36,140 --> 00:16:37,030
one. 
Yeah. 

432
00:16:37,070 --> 00:16:39,140
In my opinion, you should stop 
calling them by months. 

433
00:16:39,210 --> 00:16:41,940
Yeah, it's kind of like the. 
Old your kid, one finished. 

434
00:16:41,950 --> 00:16:44,490
Done. 
Yeah, done 168 weeks. 

435
00:16:45,820 --> 00:16:47,740
Three months. 
Three days into hours. 

436
00:16:47,750 --> 00:16:48,730
Hmm. 
Yeah. 

437
00:16:48,770 --> 00:16:50,840
I'm already at the point now. 
I think we should stop using 

438
00:16:50,850 --> 00:16:51,770
weeks. 
Do you use weeks? 

439
00:16:51,780 --> 00:16:53,340
Anymore. 
No, I just say 0. 

440
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,530
You've gone straight. 
To years, Yeah. 

441
00:16:56,590 --> 00:16:59,820
How's your kid? 
Nothing. 0. 

442
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:02,040
He's 0. 
Yeah, I've I've now started 

443
00:17:02,050 --> 00:17:03,910
transitioning. 
I used to say like 11 weeks 12. 

444
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,119
Weeks now. 
Three months. 

445
00:17:05,130 --> 00:17:06,780
Yeah, months. 
I think that it will just be 

446
00:17:06,790 --> 00:17:08,130
four months. 
Because he's five months soon. 

447
00:17:08,140 --> 00:17:09,960
So it's. 
I couldn't even tell you how 

448
00:17:09,970 --> 00:17:12,540
many weeks is quite a few weeks.
Yeah. 

449
00:17:12,579 --> 00:17:14,829
Although it was good for my 
mascaras and when we did our 

450
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:18,790
seven times table and he was 
from zero to 12 every week, we 

451
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,150
started off and I was just like,
how many days old is Robbie now?

452
00:17:22,380 --> 00:17:24,910
And they were like, talking 
about love that. 

453
00:17:25,020 --> 00:17:26,040
Good idea. 
Wish I did that. 

454
00:17:26,109 --> 00:17:29,470
Should we be telling me that 
single? 

455
00:17:31,630 --> 00:17:33,550
You might remember last week we 
talked about shout outs. 

456
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,360
We did three. 
I don't put an Instagram thing, 

457
00:17:36,370 --> 00:17:38,480
you don't remember any. 
God, that was amazing. 

458
00:17:38,730 --> 00:17:41,260
We did three shout out and I was
just talking to a few people as 

459
00:17:41,270 --> 00:17:45,360
well who reached out and I 
posted one onto our Instagram 

460
00:17:45,370 --> 00:17:48,530
actually and it was a message 
from this TA who'd been working 

461
00:17:48,540 --> 00:17:51,640
this tea for about 8 years, was 
in the had been a HRT a so 

462
00:17:51,650 --> 00:17:53,700
covered and stuff and is now in 
the middle of training to become

463
00:17:53,710 --> 00:17:56,760
a teacher and she just sent us a
message basically just just like

464
00:17:56,770 --> 00:17:59,920
saying I loved the podcast. 
She's Hatta already a teacher 

465
00:17:59,930 --> 00:18:00,520
then? 
Yeah, I know. 

466
00:18:00,530 --> 00:18:01,920
Yeah. 
Yeah, she is training. 

467
00:18:01,930 --> 00:18:03,230
Yeah, literally. 
You've done it. 

468
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,290
Done it going to be really 
horrible initially. 

469
00:18:07,300 --> 00:18:09,740
Like some people, they are just 
teachers, aren't they? 

470
00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:13,730
And some people just have this 
weird like thing already where 

471
00:18:13,740 --> 00:18:15,230
they just, I'm like, no, they're
teachers. 

472
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:16,980
There are teachers. 
Any other qualification? 

473
00:18:16,990 --> 00:18:18,790
Yeah, well done to you by the. 
Way she's on the way to get the 

474
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,940
qualification. 
She just wanted to say thank you

475
00:18:20,950 --> 00:18:23,890
for podcast, etcetera. 
And it finished off in a way 

476
00:18:23,900 --> 00:18:29,240
that I don't want to say shocked
us, but it yeah, but it's really

477
00:18:29,250 --> 00:18:32,220
nice because because I know 
sometimes in the podcast when 

478
00:18:32,230 --> 00:18:34,530
you get two teachers sat here 
and you got the context of 

479
00:18:34,540 --> 00:18:37,140
strikes and stuff and like 
education, impossibly it's most 

480
00:18:37,150 --> 00:18:40,220
crippled today ever. 
Yeah, and obviously we're going 

481
00:18:40,230 --> 00:18:43,340
to come up with some negativity.
Sometimes that's just criticise,

482
00:18:43,970 --> 00:18:47,320
so it was really nice genuinely 
to read at the end where she 

483
00:18:47,330 --> 00:18:50,140
said she's going into eyes open.
She knows it's tough but it's 

484
00:18:50,150 --> 00:18:53,960
podcast like ours which help her
see the positive and and what 

485
00:18:53,970 --> 00:18:55,820
how good it's gonna. 
BE and I think my response to 

486
00:18:55,830 --> 00:18:57,610
you was it. 
Has she been watching our 

487
00:18:57,620 --> 00:19:00,860
podcast? 
But I do think that we, we, we 

488
00:19:00,870 --> 00:19:04,500
do naturally talk very highly of
all the great things about to, 

489
00:19:04,510 --> 00:19:06,080
Yeah. 
But I thought it'd be really 

490
00:19:06,090 --> 00:19:11,040
cool this week to do a shout out
to to that TA to talk about her 

491
00:19:11,230 --> 00:19:13,780
and kind of mould a whole 
episode around. 

492
00:19:13,790 --> 00:19:16,660
It So you inspired us today. 
Yeah, it's completely positive 

493
00:19:16,670 --> 00:19:17,750
now. 
So we're going to do, we're 

494
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,840
going to do a whole episode 
about our favourite things, 

495
00:19:19,850 --> 00:19:22,250
about teaching and before we do 
want to talk about one other 

496
00:19:22,260 --> 00:19:25,560
shout out we had it was from El 
Clark found out. 

497
00:19:25,970 --> 00:19:27,150
Because I said, oh, who's? 
That. 

498
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,710
Yeah, Guess what, Her name is 
Lauren. 

499
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,450
Lauren. 
Lauren was like, she said yeah, 

500
00:19:32,460 --> 00:19:34,430
that's my name very you know, 
useful. 

501
00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:37,130
Yeah. 
So anyway she she talked to us 

502
00:19:37,140 --> 00:19:38,370
again. 
She did a shout out last week, 

503
00:19:38,380 --> 00:19:41,910
she messaged us and she said 
she's listening from Sydney. 

504
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,590
No way. 
Which I love. 

505
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,410
I know we talked before about 
how we're in so many players in 

506
00:19:46,420 --> 00:19:48,810
so many countries and stuff but 
like I always love it when 

507
00:19:48,820 --> 00:19:50,980
someone messages. 
Like the person from Zambia a 

508
00:19:50,990 --> 00:19:54,490
few months ago actually messages
and said, ohh, my Monday is 

509
00:19:54,500 --> 00:19:55,770
nearly over. 
I've listened to the podcast 

510
00:19:55,780 --> 00:19:58,040
because we wake up, right? 
We we published the podcast in 

511
00:19:58,050 --> 00:19:59,950
the middle of the night just so 
that it's there whenever people 

512
00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:02,860
wake up. 
I wake up at 6:00 and it's got 

513
00:20:02,870 --> 00:20:05,580
the the podcast has like 
numerous plays. 

514
00:20:05,650 --> 00:20:07,130
Yeah like way more than 
anything. 

515
00:20:07,140 --> 00:20:07,980
Who's up? 
Yeah. 

516
00:20:07,990 --> 00:20:10,160
No one's listened to this 
podcast which is different 

517
00:20:10,170 --> 00:20:12,320
countries and we thought about 
that because she listens to on 

518
00:20:12,330 --> 00:20:13,530
her way home. 
So at times perfect. 

519
00:20:13,540 --> 00:20:16,180
You know I don't know I'm just 
doing this live on the spot what

520
00:20:16,190 --> 00:20:18,580
might be quite cool series one 
day for us to do maybe like a a 

521
00:20:18,590 --> 00:20:20,500
sub series not just the main 
episodes. 

522
00:20:20,690 --> 00:20:23,240
It's like just get a guest from 
teacher, a teacher, guests from 

523
00:20:23,250 --> 00:20:25,460
different countries and just 
find out what what teachings 

524
00:20:25,470 --> 00:20:27,280
like in that country. 
Because I have no idea other 

525
00:20:27,290 --> 00:20:29,560
than like America which were 
often compared with I don't 

526
00:20:29,570 --> 00:20:30,900
really know what teaching is 
like. 

527
00:20:31,210 --> 00:20:35,230
Two biggest countries other than
UK for listeners is America and 

528
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,370
Australia. 
Ohh yeah and then it's Spain. 

529
00:20:38,020 --> 00:20:39,340
So I didn't even I couldn't even
tell you. 

530
00:20:39,350 --> 00:20:41,530
I'll be guessing if the 
Australian systems similar. 

531
00:20:41,590 --> 00:20:42,930
Yeah, I think it's quite 
similar. 

532
00:20:42,940 --> 00:20:44,910
But again, it would be, it would
be interesting to find out 

533
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,330
anyway, so we're gonna do a 
really positive episode this 

534
00:20:47,340 --> 00:20:48,570
week. 
It's all our favourite things, 

535
00:20:48,580 --> 00:20:51,370
what we love about teaching. 
So we've put together a list 

536
00:20:51,380 --> 00:20:54,430
Hayden, and again, we've not 
necessarily shared it with each 

537
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,250
other fully. 
We kind of know what's coming. 

538
00:20:56,260 --> 00:20:57,790
Ish. 
We're going to take it in times.

539
00:20:57,940 --> 00:20:59,170
Hey, we're going to start with 
you. 

540
00:20:59,180 --> 00:21:01,170
Hey, what's your favourite thing
about teaching? 

541
00:21:01,180 --> 00:21:03,340
Really, really positive episode.
And my favourite thing about 

542
00:21:03,350 --> 00:21:05,100
teaching is the. 
Overtime. 

543
00:21:05,110 --> 00:21:06,700
OK, because straight into 
sarcasm. 

544
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,000
I want to make a quick shout out
to to an article that came out 

545
00:21:11,010 --> 00:21:13,190
the other day. 
Check out if you can, we'll talk

546
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,900
briefly about it, but test 
released an article saying that 

547
00:21:16,910 --> 00:21:19,950
teachers to improve proven. 
As if anyone didn't know. 

548
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,930
Teachers have is the worst 
profession for unpaid overtime. 

549
00:21:23,300 --> 00:21:26,850
And I quote to you the average 
weekly overtime across employees

550
00:21:26,860 --> 00:21:28,850
as teachers is 4 1/2 hours a 
week. 

551
00:21:28,860 --> 00:21:32,020
That's 4 1/2 hours. 4 1/2 hours.
That's not, that's not 

552
00:21:32,360 --> 00:21:34,480
completely wrong across all the 
average weekly overtime for you 

553
00:21:34,490 --> 00:21:35,930
said for teachers. 
Yeah, isn't it? 

554
00:21:35,940 --> 00:21:38,470
No, it's all right. 
So this guy doesn't even know 

555
00:21:38,590 --> 00:21:40,500
stats, so it's good. 
I'll read that, shall I? 

556
00:21:40,510 --> 00:21:41,780
For you have. 
You read it for me, the average.

557
00:21:41,790 --> 00:21:45,010
Weekly overtime of anyone is 
four 4.4 hours and I saw a real 

558
00:21:45,020 --> 00:21:47,140
miss for teachers. 
P made very quickly. 

559
00:21:47,310 --> 00:21:49,230
Uh where? 
He said like yeah we know 

560
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,300
everyone does overtime but a 
it's paid and to it's much less.

561
00:21:52,370 --> 00:21:55,720
So for the average worker, you 
do 4 1/2 hours over time. 

562
00:21:55,950 --> 00:21:58,580
So I said yeah. 
What is it for teacher then? 

563
00:21:58,590 --> 00:22:01,620
Have any of you know that so 
far, 26, just over 26 hours, the

564
00:22:01,630 --> 00:22:04,440
craziest 26 hours, unpaid, 
unpaid overtime. 

565
00:22:04,450 --> 00:22:07,770
Because like we said all the 
time, our contract really does 

566
00:22:07,780 --> 00:22:12,240
run from 50 until 3/3 offering. 
So all of that prep we do every 

567
00:22:12,250 --> 00:22:14,450
single day. 
I think teachers often forget 

568
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,270
that is completely unpaid 
overtime. 

569
00:22:16,360 --> 00:22:19,240
So whenever you like. 
Ohh, no, I I I don't want to do 

570
00:22:19,250 --> 00:22:21,010
that planning at the weekend. 
Actually, I'm going to push the 

571
00:22:21,020 --> 00:22:23,470
boat out, say no because you've 
already done 15 hours of 

572
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,990
overtime that week. 
So there's no, you know, you're 

573
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,810
already well in the green. 
Don't worry about that. 

574
00:22:27,900 --> 00:22:29,630
No problem at all. 
So come on. 

575
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,880
But let's go straight into 
positive. 

576
00:22:30,890 --> 00:22:32,630
Come on, what do you want to 
say? 

577
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,090
I was just gonna say I like the 
article because one number one, 

578
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:37,290
I feel like it's coming more to 
light now. 

579
00:22:37,300 --> 00:22:39,340
All these things are getting 
back, just pushed a bit more, 

580
00:22:39,470 --> 00:22:41,600
you know, in the mainstream. 
And also then went on to talk 

581
00:22:41,610 --> 00:22:45,170
about the task, the workload 
reduction task force that we 

582
00:22:45,180 --> 00:22:47,000
talked about. 
Yeah, I was about to say task 

583
00:22:47,010 --> 00:22:49,910
load reduction workforce. 
That's not definitely the right 

584
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,060
phrase and we talked about it. 
Go and check out Season 2, 

585
00:22:52,070 --> 00:22:53,480
episode 18. 
It's one of my favourite 

586
00:22:53,490 --> 00:22:55,580
episodes where we just unpick 
that committee report. 

587
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,330
I loved that episode anyway, so 
I'm going to hand it back to 

588
00:22:59,340 --> 00:23:01,960
you. 
Let's do our favourite things 

589
00:23:01,970 --> 00:23:03,000
genuine. 
We're going to be really 

590
00:23:03,010 --> 00:23:04,480
positive now and we're not even 
joking. 

591
00:23:04,490 --> 00:23:09,380
Quick preface though is because 
we we do Love Actually teaching.

592
00:23:09,790 --> 00:23:11,280
We love that, those parts of the
job. 

593
00:23:11,290 --> 00:23:12,590
We're not gonna go about all the
other stuff. 

594
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,100
We've done that. 
Many times I thought we were. 

595
00:23:14,110 --> 00:23:15,190
Acting. 
We love teaching. 

596
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,480
Do we do, Actually, Yeah, we. 
Do sorry we do love it. 

597
00:23:17,490 --> 00:23:19,000
Yeah do. 
I don't think you can do 

598
00:23:19,010 --> 00:23:21,010
something for eight or nine 
years and not actually love some

599
00:23:21,020 --> 00:23:22,550
of it. 
I I well, I couldn't anyway. 

600
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,910
I would I would left by now. 
So favourite things. 

601
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,350
Number one. 
My one of my favourite things 

602
00:23:27,360 --> 00:23:29,690
ever is when you just turn a 
corner of a child. 

603
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,440
And I don't mean solely 
educationally, I don't mean 

604
00:23:33,450 --> 00:23:36,730
solely socially. 
I mean, any kind of corner that 

605
00:23:36,740 --> 00:23:40,650
you turn with a young person and
you feel like you have directly 

606
00:23:40,750 --> 00:23:43,110
contributed to an improvement in
their life. 

607
00:23:43,220 --> 00:23:46,210
So it it could well be that it's
they understand something now. 

608
00:23:46,270 --> 00:23:49,150
It could well be that this is 
one of the most amazing things 

609
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:53,970
about teaching you guys teach 
children how to read. 

610
00:23:54,340 --> 00:23:56,330
Yeah, that's. 
Wow. 

611
00:23:56,380 --> 00:23:58,280
Like just think about that. 
Like think about that in the 

612
00:23:58,290 --> 00:23:59,650
whole of human history for a 
minute. 

613
00:23:59,900 --> 00:24:03,730
You have the skills and the 
ability to sit with a child and 

614
00:24:03,740 --> 00:24:06,010
teach them to read. 
Just think what what that 

615
00:24:06,020 --> 00:24:08,570
actually unlocks for them, which
is absolutely everything in 

616
00:24:08,580 --> 00:24:11,740
their life, every single one of 
us was taught to read, and that 

617
00:24:11,750 --> 00:24:15,120
is just easy to kind of gloss 
over. 

618
00:24:15,170 --> 00:24:18,270
So I'm saying turning a corner, 
just the basics of you teach 

619
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,670
them to count, you teach them to
read, you teach them to tie 

620
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,560
their shoelaces, You teach them 
to behave in a way which is 

621
00:24:23,570 --> 00:24:26,580
socially acceptable and is gonna
make sure that they're, you 

622
00:24:26,590 --> 00:24:28,620
know, fair to their peers and 
things like that. 

623
00:24:28,690 --> 00:24:31,740
If you turn a corner with a 
child who maybe is a bit behind 

624
00:24:31,750 --> 00:24:35,260
on those things, whatever it 
might be that that child now 

625
00:24:35,270 --> 00:24:37,310
sits down for a whole lesson and
pays attention. 

626
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,920
A lot of those things are just 
passive as well. 

627
00:24:38,930 --> 00:24:40,850
We don't, we take it for granted
like you said. 

628
00:24:40,890 --> 00:24:43,390
And then there's other things, 
like I said about about you. 

629
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,790
But I I personally get that 
really, really nice feeling when

630
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,650
it's something social. 
I don't know why it's social. 

631
00:24:48,660 --> 00:24:49,610
It's always the social. 
Thing. 

632
00:24:49,620 --> 00:24:51,320
I think it's because you've been
trained and you're a 

633
00:24:51,330 --> 00:24:55,570
professional and this is our job
almost is the maths, the 

634
00:24:55,580 --> 00:24:58,090
English, the reading, the 
history, but you're talking 

635
00:24:58,100 --> 00:25:00,390
about something which could 
personally the extra mile. 

636
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,710
Yeah, like there's been we've, 
we've mentioned a few over the 

637
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,180
episodes over the years. 
But just like the things where 

638
00:25:07,190 --> 00:25:09,190
it's like a child is struggling 
maybe in a social group or 

639
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:13,520
social situation or even just in
class like and you your 

640
00:25:13,630 --> 00:25:16,400
influence directly helps them 
and and then their relationships

641
00:25:16,410 --> 00:25:17,460
get better with their peers or 
whatever. 

642
00:25:17,470 --> 00:25:19,560
I'm like, I I love those moments
so much. 

643
00:25:19,570 --> 00:25:21,680
You look outside and they're 
playing now and they couldn't do

644
00:25:21,690 --> 00:25:23,680
it before because they just 
didn't have the social skills. 

645
00:25:23,690 --> 00:25:26,260
They didn't understand how to 
interact appropriately, you know

646
00:25:26,270 --> 00:25:28,200
or whatever it is. 
But yeah, I agree. 

647
00:25:28,210 --> 00:25:29,940
Turning the corner. 
I've had children before who 

648
00:25:29,950 --> 00:25:34,210
struggle controlling their 
emotions and even just talking 

649
00:25:34,220 --> 00:25:37,920
to them about it and teaching 
them about their emotions and, 

650
00:25:38,070 --> 00:25:40,750
you know, putting a label on 
what that emotion is and that 

651
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,850
it's OK to feel that way and 
then it's how you react to that 

652
00:25:43,930 --> 00:25:45,390
is something you can take 
control of. 

653
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,810
Yeah. 
Watching children take control 

654
00:25:47,820 --> 00:25:52,450
of their reaction to things they
have no control over is is one 

655
00:25:52,460 --> 00:25:53,570
of my favourite parts of the 
job. 

656
00:25:53,580 --> 00:25:56,990
Because you can say to a child 
you are going to feel angry in 

657
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,750
the same way that you're going 
to feel happy. 

658
00:25:58,940 --> 00:26:02,440
So I am not going to stand here.
I would never stand here and say

659
00:26:02,450 --> 00:26:05,450
you can't feel angry because 
that is the same as me saying 

660
00:26:05,460 --> 00:26:08,370
you can't feel happy, you can't 
feel excited, you don't control 

661
00:26:08,380 --> 00:26:10,770
your emotions. 
But what I've seen with a lot of

662
00:26:10,780 --> 00:26:13,230
children, and it's one of my 
favourite parts of the job, is 

663
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,500
watching them learn to what to 
do after. 

664
00:26:15,570 --> 00:26:19,100
Yeah, and and that can really 
transform a child's social 

665
00:26:19,110 --> 00:26:22,020
awareness, their relationship 
with their peers and in the end 

666
00:26:22,030 --> 00:26:23,600
as well their academic 
achievement. 

667
00:26:23,610 --> 00:26:27,040
Because they they feel that way,
they understand it, they accept 

668
00:26:27,050 --> 00:26:30,160
it and through you teaching them
they've turned that corner, 

669
00:26:30,230 --> 00:26:33,520
they've made progress in that 
respect and that's going to have

670
00:26:33,530 --> 00:26:35,940
a huge impact on them. 
I I just absolutely love it. 

671
00:26:35,950 --> 00:26:38,100
It's one of my favourite parts. 
Yeah, it's a very, very 

672
00:26:38,110 --> 00:26:40,450
rewarding. 
Isn't exactly that #2. 

673
00:26:40,460 --> 00:26:43,880
So my one, my first one is very 
different to yours actually is 

674
00:26:43,950 --> 00:26:46,510
something I love about teaching 
is that every day is unique. 

675
00:26:46,900 --> 00:26:49,890
Yeah, every day is different. 
So I really struggled before 

676
00:26:49,900 --> 00:26:53,750
went to teaching with with jobs 
that were very, very samey. 

677
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,030
And some people, a lot of people
actually love that. 

678
00:26:56,100 --> 00:26:58,330
They like the routine of I know 
exactly what to be doing. 

679
00:26:58,340 --> 00:27:00,430
There's no stress because I 
don't have to just think on the 

680
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,070
spot all the time and solve 
problems. 

681
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,950
But teaching is a bit like that.
It's got actually a bit of both 

682
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,500
really, isn't it? 
You know, your days quite well 

683
00:27:06,510 --> 00:27:08,890
structured with structured, with
your school timetable things. 

684
00:27:08,900 --> 00:27:10,490
You kind of know what is roughly
coming. 

685
00:27:10,500 --> 00:27:14,470
But every day is unique in terms
of there are 32 children usually

686
00:27:14,540 --> 00:27:16,250
in your class than anything 
could happen. 

687
00:27:16,260 --> 00:27:18,180
Anything could have happened 
with them in the last 24 hours. 

688
00:27:18,190 --> 00:27:19,300
They could be upset. 
They could be happy. 

689
00:27:19,310 --> 00:27:20,610
They wanna tell you a great 
thing. 

690
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:22,610
They could tell you they could 
want to tell you a terrible 

691
00:27:22,620 --> 00:27:26,380
thing and then you know your 
your team around you could come 

692
00:27:26,390 --> 00:27:28,150
to you a massive problem. 
Oh no, the internet's down. 

693
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,810
Yeah we're gonna do we need a 
new resource. 

694
00:27:30,820 --> 00:27:32,690
Oh no. 
Offset are coming in or whatever

695
00:27:32,700 --> 00:27:35,270
like you're every day is just 
really different And it keeps me

696
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:40,610
on my toes and I think it just 
keeps my brain active and 

697
00:27:40,620 --> 00:27:41,610
pleased. 
I don't know, I just. 

698
00:27:41,620 --> 00:27:44,620
I just need that kind of. 
Yeah, that stimulate that 

699
00:27:44,630 --> 00:27:45,940
stimulus. 
Because I've seen a lot of 

700
00:27:45,950 --> 00:27:49,020
people lately talk about these 
at point you're making about it.

701
00:27:49,030 --> 00:27:51,080
Yeah every day is unique. 
But then to extrapolate from 

702
00:27:51,090 --> 00:27:53,120
that, it's like we are constant 
problem solvers. 

703
00:27:53,270 --> 00:27:55,100
We are we. 
I I can't stress to people 

704
00:27:55,110 --> 00:27:57,080
enough who don't work in 
teaching with, especially with 

705
00:27:57,090 --> 00:27:59,740
younger children in primary 
school or early years, whatever 

706
00:27:59,750 --> 00:28:03,560
it might be, how mentally taxing
it is to deliver lessons to the 

707
00:28:03,570 --> 00:28:06,080
children. 
Because not only are you, it's 

708
00:28:06,090 --> 00:28:08,820
almost enough of a mental load 
to just deliver the lesson 

709
00:28:08,830 --> 00:28:10,620
itself. 
If you were doing meetings in an

710
00:28:10,630 --> 00:28:13,810
office, adults delivering 
meetings all day blocked out, 

711
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,700
that would be a day like, wow, 
you're that's a crazy then yeah,

712
00:28:16,710 --> 00:28:19,390
that's that's a lot to do. 
You've also got to control 

713
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:20,870
children and and make sure 
they're paying. 

714
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,630
Attention 32 people in this. 
Meeting 30 exactly every single 

715
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,430
time. 
Usually you've got to, you know,

716
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:26,950
change what you're doing to help
them. 

717
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,470
But but the thing I'm talking 
about when you're to kind of 

718
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,050
link what you're saying every 
day is unique is they don't have

719
00:28:32,060 --> 00:28:36,090
the same philtre as adults do. 
But you, you could deliver a CPD

720
00:28:36,100 --> 00:28:38,870
right to a bunch of teachers 
from a school and then probably 

721
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,330
picked that CPD up and do it 
next week in a different school.

722
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:42,230
Yeah. 
And be very sane. 

723
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,290
Yeah, roughly the same. 
You still teach him, but you 

724
00:28:44,300 --> 00:28:48,120
probably get the same reaction. 
I've seen a lot lately of people

725
00:28:48,130 --> 00:28:52,080
describing this as negative and 
really taxing on the brain, 

726
00:28:52,090 --> 00:28:55,670
which I think it is. 
It's exhausting, but it's nice 

727
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,840
to hear you kind of flip that 
and say that's a positive view. 

728
00:28:58,850 --> 00:29:01,820
So how do you kind of balance 
the fact every day is unique 

729
00:29:01,830 --> 00:29:04,100
with like mental burnout 
basically? 

730
00:29:04,330 --> 00:29:05,920
Well, I mean, check out our last
episode. 

731
00:29:05,930 --> 00:29:07,820
I think. 
I think they're almost two 

732
00:29:07,830 --> 00:29:08,960
separate things. 
Do you think? 

733
00:29:08,970 --> 00:29:11,560
I think so, yeah. 
I don't think the fact that 

734
00:29:11,570 --> 00:29:14,040
every day is unique is the 
reason for burner. 

735
00:29:14,050 --> 00:29:16,980
I think it's the length of. 
Hmm, it's the length of time you

736
00:29:16,990 --> 00:29:19,120
have to do the. 
Job or the now children maybe? 

737
00:29:19,170 --> 00:29:21,440
China children, even just the 
sheer number of tasks you have 

738
00:29:21,450 --> 00:29:24,250
to actually get done in a day. 
I think if if that you know, if 

739
00:29:24,260 --> 00:29:27,790
the task, if the task were 
reduced, then I'd thoroughly 

740
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:29,830
enjoy my day even more. 
And it wouldn't be the fact that

741
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,560
every day was different the 
problem because I like problem 

742
00:29:31,570 --> 00:29:32,640
solving. 
So if you're one of those kind 

743
00:29:32,650 --> 00:29:34,510
of people, if you're not a 
teacher, maybe nothing can. 

744
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,670
Actually I'm just bored of a job
where I have to do the same 

745
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,360
thing every day. 
Then maybe teachings a job you 

746
00:29:40,370 --> 00:29:43,240
should consider because it is a 
it is great for problem solving 

747
00:29:43,250 --> 00:29:45,420
and thinking on the spot every 
day and just knowing that every 

748
00:29:45,430 --> 00:29:47,240
day is a bit different. 
You can come home and talk about

749
00:29:47,250 --> 00:29:48,560
your day. 
It's always gonna be different 

750
00:29:48,630 --> 00:29:50,350
to the day before. 
It just there's something 

751
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,090
happens every day. 
Like some kids might come up to 

752
00:29:52,100 --> 00:29:53,350
you and say, oh, you got green 
skin on you. 

753
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:57,940
Know anything can happen. 
I like the again, the fact every

754
00:29:57,950 --> 00:30:01,060
day is unique is something that 
keeps a lot of people in the 

755
00:30:01,070 --> 00:30:03,040
job. 
So it is a positive because 

756
00:30:03,050 --> 00:30:06,160
I've, I've spoken to numerous 
people, you and I included, 

757
00:30:06,250 --> 00:30:08,190
where we do. 
You do sometimes think when 

758
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:09,940
you've had a bit of a stressful 
week and you do feel 

759
00:30:09,950 --> 00:30:12,480
exceptionally burnt out or 
there's just too much going on, 

760
00:30:12,490 --> 00:30:15,600
you think you know what I could 
just do with a job or just go 

761
00:30:15,610 --> 00:30:16,510
in. 
I know what I'm doing. 

762
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:17,170
I'm gonna. 
Leave. 

763
00:30:17,180 --> 00:30:19,510
Can I tell you what I've never 
thought that my life you've not.

764
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:20,380
No, there's never. 
Never. 

765
00:30:20,390 --> 00:30:22,310
I'm I'm really really really 
don't like those jobs. 

766
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,660
I I can't think of any situation
ever where where I'd enjoy. 

767
00:30:24,670 --> 00:30:27,750
That exactly and but, but the 
point being, even when I thought

768
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,590
that if I've ever got to the 
point where I sit down, then I 

769
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,980
think, what could I do every 
single time? 

770
00:30:32,990 --> 00:30:35,180
I'm like, God no. 
Yeah, like when you actually 

771
00:30:35,190 --> 00:30:37,510
think about the realist 
realistic side of that, for me 

772
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,140
personally, this is a huge draw 
to the job. 

773
00:30:40,190 --> 00:30:43,240
Everyday is unique and you can 
apply professional skills and if

774
00:30:43,250 --> 00:30:45,340
you're in a school that gives 
you that bit of personal 

775
00:30:45,350 --> 00:30:47,910
freedom, mould those days how 
you want to, it's. 

776
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,710
Fantastic. 
Your mind will be stimulated, 

777
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,470
yeah, all the time. 
And I just need that to be. 

778
00:30:52,540 --> 00:30:54,930
Absolutely. 
Basically next one. 

779
00:30:55,300 --> 00:31:00,800
This is this is I think this is 
LinkedIn a way because we're 

780
00:31:00,810 --> 00:31:02,450
making comparisons with other 
jobs. 

781
00:31:02,570 --> 00:31:07,340
But my my next thing I love the 
most is having fun, is having 

782
00:31:07,350 --> 00:31:08,850
fun. 
And I'm gonna go deeper because 

783
00:31:08,860 --> 00:31:09,970
we talked about having fun a 
lot. 

784
00:31:09,980 --> 00:31:12,670
We talked about you know being 
silly with the children saying 

785
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,260
you're an ogre, right. 
That these low level things that

786
00:31:15,270 --> 00:31:18,140
just get dangle that carrot in 
front of the children. 

787
00:31:18,210 --> 00:31:21,160
Because sometimes what we have 
to deliver by the curriculum is 

788
00:31:21,170 --> 00:31:23,260
dry. 
And I see it as part of my job 

789
00:31:23,270 --> 00:31:27,060
to ensure that the children who 
I want children, right, who are 

790
00:31:27,070 --> 00:31:30,320
in my class to go home and say 
they had fun today, I don't want

791
00:31:30,330 --> 00:31:32,520
that to be a single day where 
the children go home and say, 

792
00:31:32,530 --> 00:31:35,920
God, that was boring. 
Yeah, Which can very easily 

793
00:31:35,930 --> 00:31:36,820
happen. 
Yeah, of course. 

794
00:31:36,830 --> 00:31:38,590
Because if you think in the 
morning, we're doing cross 

795
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,560
multiplication fractions in 
English. 

796
00:31:40,570 --> 00:31:42,260
We're doing a reading 
comprehension text on the most 

797
00:31:42,270 --> 00:31:44,420
boring nonfiction thing ever 
that I've got no interest in. 

798
00:31:44,430 --> 00:31:46,800
And then the afternoon we had to
fit in an Rd lesson and the 

799
00:31:46,810 --> 00:31:48,940
geography lesson about a river 
in South America. 

800
00:31:48,990 --> 00:31:52,120
Yeah, Like, objectively, that's 
six hours of work could be 

801
00:31:52,130 --> 00:31:54,610
horrendously boring. 
So as a teacher, it's my job to 

802
00:31:54,620 --> 00:31:57,880
make sure they have fun. 
But above that and pushing on 

803
00:31:57,890 --> 00:32:01,030
from that, the reason I love 
teaching is I'm allowed to do 

804
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,580
that with my professional 
judgement and bond with the 

805
00:32:03,590 --> 00:32:05,240
children and then get more out 
of them. 

806
00:32:05,330 --> 00:32:08,380
But I'm talking as well. 
Like when we went swimming this 

807
00:32:08,390 --> 00:32:13,620
week, the smiles on the 
children's faces genuinely like 

808
00:32:13,670 --> 00:32:17,360
almost transformed me back to my
my NQT days when when like you 

809
00:32:17,370 --> 00:32:19,620
know that's all I wanted to do 
and the idea of a child being 

810
00:32:19,630 --> 00:32:22,540
sad made me upset and I so I'm 
never gonna make a child cry. 

811
00:32:23,550 --> 00:32:27,760
I just wanna have fun like and 
and those trips, it really, I've

812
00:32:27,770 --> 00:32:30,300
said it a million times but it 
does really get to me that 

813
00:32:30,390 --> 00:32:32,350
that's what's being here. 
It feels like at the moment is 

814
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,730
all of that enrichment and those
trips, because at the end of the

815
00:32:34,740 --> 00:32:37,430
day it's the children where 
schools, the only chance they 

816
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,990
get to have those moments. 
I want to give it to them as 

817
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,530
much as possible. 
Swimming was that moment for me 

818
00:32:42,540 --> 00:32:45,180
where you just look around 
whether they're in the deep end 

819
00:32:45,190 --> 00:32:47,560
because they're experienced. 
Some as some kids are in the 

820
00:32:47,570 --> 00:32:49,730
shallow end practising their 
strokes because they can kind of

821
00:32:49,740 --> 00:32:51,450
swim. 
Some children, the paddling bit 

822
00:32:51,460 --> 00:32:55,110
because they don't know how to 
swim, all of them are having a 

823
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:56,390
good time. 
Yeah, smiling. 

824
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,680
They're enjoying their life, 
enjoying it in that moment. 

825
00:32:58,690 --> 00:33:01,310
And even the ones who are a bit 
anxious beforehand, not one of 

826
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,360
them in the pool was upset. 
They found out that was so fun. 

827
00:33:04,370 --> 00:33:07,500
And I I, I'll be honest, I even 
said to them I was like, makes a

828
00:33:07,510 --> 00:33:09,980
change, doesn't it, from having 
to write in your book about 

829
00:33:10,030 --> 00:33:11,810
about rivers. 
Yeah, having to write your book 

830
00:33:11,820 --> 00:33:12,860
about swimming. 
Literally. 

831
00:33:12,870 --> 00:33:14,280
Literally, yeah. 
It just, it just makes change. 

832
00:33:14,290 --> 00:33:15,560
And they're like, yeah, that was
so good. 

833
00:33:15,570 --> 00:33:21,420
And and I tell you what, I got 
off essentially at about 4:00 

834
00:33:21,430 --> 00:33:23,240
from there. 
So we were very late back to 

835
00:33:23,250 --> 00:33:23,880
school. 
Yeah. 

836
00:33:23,940 --> 00:33:26,070
Which is normal. 
And few children were waiting to

837
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,790
be picked up. 
Then the medical, but that was 

838
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,190
even later even still. 
But but I didn't. 

839
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,190
I didn't resent it whatsoever. 
Yeah. 

840
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,200
I was like, yeah, OK, spent an 
extra 40 minutes where I could 

841
00:33:35,210 --> 00:33:37,250
have been doing my marking, 
could be doing this, didn't 

842
00:33:37,260 --> 00:33:38,990
resent it at all. 
And that was like that's peak 

843
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,180
teaching when you know, these 
teachers, myself included, and 

844
00:33:42,190 --> 00:33:44,490
you and everyone who's listening
works in a school has that 

845
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:46,350
streak in them, what they want 
to do it for the kids. 

846
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,820
And no matter what's happened, 
that's still there that that was

847
00:33:49,830 --> 00:33:52,050
there for me again. 
And I think it's having. 

848
00:33:52,060 --> 00:33:54,280
Fun, Yeah. 
And also, I suppose you could 

849
00:33:54,290 --> 00:33:57,650
counteract it with you. 
You weren't teaching a lesson 

850
00:33:57,660 --> 00:33:59,940
that afternoon that needed 
marking and if you were, it 

851
00:33:59,950 --> 00:34:01,860
would have taken you that amount
of time to mark anyway. 

852
00:34:01,870 --> 00:34:03,380
So would you. 
Getting back late was kind of 

853
00:34:03,390 --> 00:34:06,070
like you're marking time for the
swimming and everything. 

854
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,970
That's good time. 
I'm going to jump in with the 

855
00:34:07,980 --> 00:34:09,159
next one. 
I'm just going to end it with 

856
00:34:09,170 --> 00:34:10,440
this. 
You basically mentioned my next 

857
00:34:10,449 --> 00:34:13,360
point, which is making children 
laugh because it's very, very 

858
00:34:13,370 --> 00:34:16,219
similar point, isn't it? 
But you know, it's, I guess it's

859
00:34:16,230 --> 00:34:18,239
the same thing. 
But making children laugh is 

860
00:34:18,710 --> 00:34:21,020
possibly my favourite part of 
the job. 

861
00:34:21,250 --> 00:34:24,139
I think it's the thing that 
makes me feel the most happy. 

862
00:34:24,190 --> 00:34:25,889
Is that a selfish thing to 
think, do you think? 

863
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:28,170
That you're about to say, I 
think it's on a very, very 

864
00:34:28,179 --> 00:34:32,139
selfish level about what I enjoy
about teaching is, is making the

865
00:34:32,150 --> 00:34:33,710
kids laugh. 
And no, not everyone might be, 

866
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:35,850
you know, not everyone's the 
same, not everyone's the same. 

867
00:34:35,860 --> 00:34:38,050
But I value that really highly 
because it makes me really 

868
00:34:38,060 --> 00:34:39,929
happy. 
And I think it makes me happy 

869
00:34:39,940 --> 00:34:41,790
because it makes them happy. 
And I just, you know, I like 

870
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,300
making people happy. 
But yeah, similar to you, I make

871
00:34:44,310 --> 00:34:46,460
them laugh with enrichment 
activities. 

872
00:34:46,469 --> 00:34:49,030
But also things like, I always 
think back to, I always think 

873
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,850
back to COVID. 
Yeah, I don't even know who told

874
00:34:51,860 --> 00:34:52,830
the story before. 
Probably. 

875
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:54,280
Have probably about four times 
you. 

876
00:34:54,290 --> 00:34:58,110
Remember, it's just. 
It's just the most pure fun we 

877
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,720
ever had This one day during 
COVID when it was like key 

878
00:35:00,730 --> 00:35:03,070
worker children in and all that 
stuff we had. 

879
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,410
I don't know, maybe 20 kids in, 
if that. 

880
00:35:05,420 --> 00:35:07,710
Probably not even. 
That less than that. 15 to 20 

881
00:35:07,820 --> 00:35:09,720
and we were like, cool, we're 
going. 

882
00:35:09,730 --> 00:35:12,290
It was a beautiful day, 
beautiful sunny day. 

883
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,700
We've done a bit of learning in 
the classroom and all right, 

884
00:35:15,710 --> 00:35:17,770
cool, let's go outside for the 
rest. 

885
00:35:17,780 --> 00:35:19,140
Of the were told to be outside 
as much as. 

886
00:35:19,150 --> 00:35:19,820
Possible. 
Exactly. 

887
00:35:19,830 --> 00:35:22,100
We're supposed to be. 
And we were like, let's do some 

888
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:26,350
pee in ages and we were like, 
OK, pea cupboard needs to be 

889
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:27,660
tidied. 
And cleaned. 

890
00:35:27,750 --> 00:35:31,000
And cleaned. 
Let's get every single piece of 

891
00:35:31,010 --> 00:35:32,220
equipment out of the PE 
cupboard. 

892
00:35:32,230 --> 00:35:34,260
And we're talking like you think
about your school PE cup, like 

893
00:35:34,270 --> 00:35:36,900
how much stuff there actually is
to, you know, for kids. 

894
00:35:36,970 --> 00:35:39,810
We got stuff that hasn't. 
Seen this day of life, I know we

895
00:35:39,820 --> 00:35:42,500
got every single thing out, made
a massive pile of it and and 

896
00:35:42,510 --> 00:35:44,200
divided. 
The whole and said the day of 

897
00:35:44,210 --> 00:35:48,900
light. 
In the daylight, like earlier 

898
00:35:48,910 --> 00:35:52,810
when you said I I forget in my 
head and I was expecting you to 

899
00:35:52,820 --> 00:35:55,410
say the phrase if it wasn't 
screwed on, I forget my head if 

900
00:35:55,420 --> 00:35:58,370
it, if it wasn't on my body, 
what you said and I sort of 

901
00:35:58,380 --> 00:35:59,640
smirked and I was like, I'm not 
gonna take. 

902
00:35:59,650 --> 00:36:00,820
This. 
Sorry, yeah. 

903
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:02,890
Anyway just yeah really quick 
fudge finish story. 

904
00:36:02,900 --> 00:36:05,450
But just we made we got them 
making massive obstacle course 

905
00:36:05,460 --> 00:36:07,440
and then we played around on 
this obstacle course using every

906
00:36:07,450 --> 00:36:10,070
single piece of equipment from 
the cupboard on using up the 

907
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:11,950
entire play around and it was 
the most fun. 

908
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,950
I had so much fun and the kids 
had so much fun they went home. 

909
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,630
I I like to think they went home
and said I had the best day 

910
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,040
ever. 
But just that to me, you get to 

911
00:36:21,050 --> 00:36:22,060
do that in teaching all the 
time. 

912
00:36:22,070 --> 00:36:24,080
You don't get to take all the 
equipment out, but you get to 

913
00:36:24,090 --> 00:36:27,240
have those mini experiences of 
fun all the time with the kids 

914
00:36:27,310 --> 00:36:29,760
and it makes their day and one 
day we're going to an episode. 

915
00:36:29,850 --> 00:36:33,640
We have said this loads of times
where I'm going to present to 

916
00:36:33,650 --> 00:36:37,950
you my made-up school because I 
often think about episode one. 

917
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,120
I often think about making up my
own school, how I'd run a school

918
00:36:41,130 --> 00:36:43,500
in an ideal world. 
You know, perhaps budget didn't 

919
00:36:43,510 --> 00:36:45,860
crush in my dreams. 
I think that's that's just 

920
00:36:45,870 --> 00:36:49,840
called what every head teacher. 
Yeah, and and yeah, one day 

921
00:36:49,850 --> 00:36:52,420
we're gonna episode and Dylan's 
gonna just grill me on this. 

922
00:36:52,430 --> 00:36:54,760
made-up school. 
But my my top thing would be the

923
00:36:54,770 --> 00:36:56,200
top priority is kids leave 
school. 

924
00:36:56,210 --> 00:36:57,490
Haven't had fun and you sort of 
said it. 

925
00:36:57,500 --> 00:36:59,440
In your point they have to leave
school. 

926
00:36:59,450 --> 00:37:00,170
Happy. 
Yeah. 

927
00:37:00,210 --> 00:37:02,430
If they're not leaving school 
happy, then I'll tell you what, 

928
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,280
those lessons you did, that was 
a waste of time. 

929
00:37:04,350 --> 00:37:04,960
Yeah. 
Happy. 

930
00:37:04,970 --> 00:37:08,140
Children, happy children. 
We're not in a totalitarian 

931
00:37:08,150 --> 00:37:11,060
regime where we just. 
The only outcome has to be that 

932
00:37:11,070 --> 00:37:13,710
they understand that the date of
the death of King Henry the 

933
00:37:13,720 --> 00:37:15,050
Eighth was hit. 
Yeah, Don't. 

934
00:37:15,060 --> 00:37:16,050
Care. 
We always go that way. 

935
00:37:16,060 --> 00:37:17,500
Yeah. 
When we go knowledge base, we 

936
00:37:17,510 --> 00:37:19,480
always go. 
What did I learn? 

937
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,100
Yeah. 
Much. 

938
00:37:23,140 --> 00:37:24,150
Right. 
Next one for me. 

939
00:37:24,220 --> 00:37:26,130
What do I love about teaching 
it? 

940
00:37:26,140 --> 00:37:31,650
It's the responsibility, OK, of 
making sure it it's my job to 

941
00:37:31,660 --> 00:37:34,860
provide for children things that
they might otherwise not get. 

942
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,390
And that is a that is, you know,
some people might describe that 

943
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,690
as a burden almost, or a heavy 
responsibility. 

944
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,590
Well, yeah, you know, if you're 
a doctor, you're in charge of 

945
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,380
people's health. 
Well, that's a big burden and 

946
00:37:44,390 --> 00:37:46,910
responsibility. 
I don't think our burden is 

947
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,850
maybe necessarily at that level 
of of like a doctor or a surgeon

948
00:37:49,860 --> 00:37:52,010
or something, but it's bloody 
high and I think it's a lot 

949
00:37:52,020 --> 00:37:57,390
higher than some people realise.
And as a teacher I love giving 

950
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:01,860
children safety comfort 
experiences they wouldn't 

951
00:38:01,870 --> 00:38:04,080
otherwise get and harping back 
to earlier. 

952
00:38:04,090 --> 00:38:06,170
These points kind of link 
through it all down to the kids 

953
00:38:06,180 --> 00:38:08,900
really. 
I want to give them things that 

954
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,810
otherwise, without this system 
where I'm their class teacher 

955
00:38:11,820 --> 00:38:14,050
and providing them with these 
things, they might not 

956
00:38:14,060 --> 00:38:16,490
necessarily get Honestly, love 
and care. 

957
00:38:16,540 --> 00:38:18,690
Yeah, yeah. 
A lot of the time it's like 

958
00:38:18,700 --> 00:38:22,130
there are, there are children, 
unfortunately every single year 

959
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,800
who don't get much love and 
aren't very well cared for. 

960
00:38:25,870 --> 00:38:28,100
Obviously, you know, we know. 
We know how the country works. 

961
00:38:28,110 --> 00:38:29,460
We know different demographics 
work. 

962
00:38:29,470 --> 00:38:32,320
Yeah. 
And yeah, it is nice, isn't it? 

963
00:38:32,330 --> 00:38:34,700
You know, just to show those 
kids, oh, no, no, no, no. 

964
00:38:34,710 --> 00:38:36,260
You are loved. 
You are really careful. 

965
00:38:36,270 --> 00:38:37,940
We really care for you. 
We love you in this school. 

966
00:38:37,950 --> 00:38:40,860
This community loves you. 
Yeah, you know, you safe haven. 

967
00:38:40,910 --> 00:38:43,520
Yeah, I know what you mean. 
That is a very, very rewarding 

968
00:38:43,530 --> 00:38:44,550
feeling. 
Isn't really rewarding. 

969
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,820
And that's like to me again, 
that's something that I would 

970
00:38:46,830 --> 00:38:48,670
miss so much. 
And this is something I put my 

971
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,250
list together. 
I was kind of I went, OK, what 

972
00:38:51,260 --> 00:38:52,800
do I love? 
But it was almost easier for me 

973
00:38:52,810 --> 00:38:56,310
to think, OK, it's easy for me 
to forget what I love sometimes 

974
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,850
is to not really what do I, why 
do I keep teaching you? 

975
00:38:58,860 --> 00:39:00,360
I said, why am I just gonna quit
one day? 

976
00:39:00,460 --> 00:39:02,680
But then I thought, OK, I'm 
gonna look at this a different 

977
00:39:02,690 --> 00:39:05,450
way, which is if I didn't do 
this job, what would I end up 

978
00:39:05,460 --> 00:39:06,400
really missing? 
Yeah. 

979
00:39:06,410 --> 00:39:11,560
And I think that you know that 
responsibility of providing that

980
00:39:11,570 --> 00:39:16,280
environment for so many children
in our community, you know, just

981
00:39:16,290 --> 00:39:19,080
ensuring that they get what they
need like that is that there's 

982
00:39:19,090 --> 00:39:22,100
something everyday you again, 
it's easy to forget, but you do 

983
00:39:22,110 --> 00:39:22,800
it. 
Every single day. 

984
00:39:22,810 --> 00:39:25,080
Still, it's interesting how our 
first five points, I know it 

985
00:39:25,090 --> 00:39:27,620
does change a bit, but our first
five have all been very similar 

986
00:39:27,630 --> 00:39:30,540
in terms of the all to do with, 
like very emotive, aren't they 

987
00:39:30,610 --> 00:39:31,840
the things we like about 
teaching. 

988
00:39:31,850 --> 00:39:34,020
It's like if you thought about a
different job, the things that 

989
00:39:34,030 --> 00:39:36,680
you love about working at Tesco,
like I used to, it might be the 

990
00:39:36,690 --> 00:39:39,620
hours I get. 
I like doing this particular job

991
00:39:39,630 --> 00:39:41,570
like stacking shows more than I 
like doing. 

992
00:39:41,580 --> 00:39:43,830
The tills. 
But so far, our first five 

993
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,560
points have all very much been 
these really, really, like, 

994
00:39:46,630 --> 00:39:49,650
emotive things about how much 
you love basically just being 

995
00:39:49,660 --> 00:39:52,250
with the kids, watching them 
grow, watching them learn, 

996
00:39:52,260 --> 00:39:54,490
helping them, you know, showing 
them their love, making them 

997
00:39:54,500 --> 00:39:56,410
feel safe. 
All this stuff is like, yeah, 

998
00:39:56,420 --> 00:39:58,150
just I didn't think about. 
It yeah, leave the Lions team. 

999
00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,110
Up we have got a couple of 
points. 

1000
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,960
I think they're a bit more. 
Yeah, but this is in the order 

1001
00:40:01,970 --> 00:40:04,090
that I thought of them as well. 
So this is really interesting to

1002
00:40:04,100 --> 00:40:06,980
think actually, yeah you know 
what if these if these ever won 

1003
00:40:06,990 --> 00:40:08,790
the first things that came out 
of our mouth for me kind of 

1004
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,480
ourselves these questions again 
that's the I think that is the 

1005
00:40:11,490 --> 00:40:15,050
point where you would have to be
like OK that this this is the 

1006
00:40:15,060 --> 00:40:17,870
thing keeping me in this job. 
It's it's the children and 

1007
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:19,780
helping them. 
And I think very quickly last 

1008
00:40:19,790 --> 00:40:21,720
thing I want to say about 
providing for children who don't

1009
00:40:21,730 --> 00:40:24,330
necessarily have stuff, I've 
said it a million times before, 

1010
00:40:24,340 --> 00:40:26,890
I'm, I'm no martyr or anything 
like that. 

1011
00:40:26,940 --> 00:40:30,030
But you know I went to, I was a 
free school milk kid. 

1012
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:34,680
You know, we lived in so many 
houses when I was younger and 

1013
00:40:34,690 --> 00:40:37,080
and like when I'm talking really
young up north and stuff, we 

1014
00:40:37,090 --> 00:40:39,760
didn't have much. 
And I loved school. 

1015
00:40:40,090 --> 00:40:43,270
And I think that if that didn't 
happen to me and I didn't have 

1016
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:46,720
that experience of school as 
like wow, this place I can excel

1017
00:40:46,730 --> 00:40:49,080
and do this amazing stuff. 
And I love the teachers and I 

1018
00:40:49,090 --> 00:40:51,120
love to be there. 
And these teachers really helped

1019
00:40:51,130 --> 00:40:54,200
me and moulded me and gave me 
what I needed and looked after 

1020
00:40:54,210 --> 00:40:58,700
me and then helped my mom and 
then you know just get provided 

1021
00:40:58,710 --> 00:41:00,890
all that stuff. 
I think that lift experience has

1022
00:41:00,900 --> 00:41:03,020
moulded while like I I want to 
do teaching. 

1023
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:05,590
Part of your life. 
People have said to me don't go 

1024
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,870
into teaching. 
Yeah, you could do, you could do

1025
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:10,810
this or that you're going to. 
Teaching. 

1026
00:41:10,820 --> 00:41:14,170
It's got no money. 
It's like ohh OK I know, but God

1027
00:41:14,180 --> 00:41:16,150
it feels good. 
Though one of the one of the 

1028
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,170
hardest parts of teaching is 
recognising all this as 

1029
00:41:19,180 --> 00:41:22,110
something that makes the job 
extremely rewarding and great to

1030
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:26,490
do, but also balancing what we 
talked about last episode. 

1031
00:41:26,910 --> 00:41:29,230
Just the the rough side of the 
work, you know, the fact that 

1032
00:41:29,240 --> 00:41:32,160
also you can burn out and then 
be terrible at doing all of this

1033
00:41:32,170 --> 00:41:34,180
because you're burnt out and 
you've just got to balance all 

1034
00:41:34,190 --> 00:41:35,610
the time. 
Ohh, I will. 

1035
00:41:35,620 --> 00:41:37,660
I wanted to this enrichment 
activity, but it's 5:00 PM, I 

1036
00:41:37,670 --> 00:41:39,870
haven't done any marking. 
I can't really do this club, you

1037
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:41,610
know, and it's so hard. 
That's one of the biggest 

1038
00:41:41,620 --> 00:41:43,790
challenges of this job is 
wanting to do all these things 

1039
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:45,890
all the time, but you just 
restricted by. 

1040
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,270
That's why we're in such a 
predicament. 

1041
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,230
Got these amazing teachers 
leaving because they've just the

1042
00:41:51,240 --> 00:41:52,440
scales tipped. 
It's not their fault. 

1043
00:41:52,450 --> 00:41:54,490
And they would love to probably 
have provided these things 

1044
00:41:54,500 --> 00:41:56,030
absolutely. 
Anyway next one is is a bit 

1045
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,810
different now. 
So moving on is something I like

1046
00:41:58,820 --> 00:42:02,630
about the job is you. 
There is you can control your 

1047
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:07,330
day a little bit in terms of 
time like if I turned up at 7:00

1048
00:42:07,420 --> 00:42:10,030
or if I turned up 8 or even 830.
Ohh, I see. 

1049
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:11,630
No one's actually gonna be 
annoyed at me. 

1050
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,650
Yeah. 
As long as I'm there basically 

1051
00:42:13,660 --> 00:42:15,350
to teach the kids. 
As long as I'm there to do my 

1052
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,270
contracted hours. 
Which is sounds this sounds 

1053
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:18,910
stupid and I'm sure you can rip 
into it. 

1054
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,950
But and even at the end of the 
day you know I I know of our our

1055
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:25,210
head teacher at least if I 
needed to go at 3:20 right like 

1056
00:42:25,220 --> 00:42:27,960
minutes after the kids left I 
would obviously ask him because 

1057
00:42:27,970 --> 00:42:29,930
that is a bit earlier than our 
contracted time but he'd be cool

1058
00:42:29,940 --> 00:42:31,050
with it. 
But yeah, of course, because he 

1059
00:42:31,060 --> 00:42:33,800
knows that normally I'm there 
till 5:00 doing work, but you 

1060
00:42:33,810 --> 00:42:36,420
could if I needed to stay till 
5:45 one day because I just got 

1061
00:42:36,430 --> 00:42:39,690
a load of stuff done, it's fine.
So I I like that control. 

1062
00:42:39,700 --> 00:42:41,150
So I want to go off early. 
I can just go off. 

1063
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:42,990
Early I know exactly what you 
mean, cause people like, what 

1064
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,390
are you on about? 
You just talked about how 

1065
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,570
regimented the school day is. 
Yeah, yeah, but you're right in 

1066
00:42:46,580 --> 00:42:50,670
terms of, yeah, we have 26 hours
of overtime every week. 

1067
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:52,310
But you know what? 
I can do it whenever I want. 

1068
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:55,790
Do I like the fact I can do my 
extra work on a Sunday morning? 

1069
00:42:57,190 --> 00:43:00,430
I know what you mean because I I
guess what you're saying is OK, 

1070
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,670
I've done this a million times. 
Everyone who works in a school 

1071
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,350
has it's got to like 4, right. 
Half four and and you're like, 

1072
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,030
OK, I've got, I've got two sets 
of books to mark. 

1073
00:43:09,260 --> 00:43:11,110
I could even mark them now or in
the morning. 

1074
00:43:11,220 --> 00:43:13,520
What's better for me? 
Well, actually it's better for 

1075
00:43:13,530 --> 00:43:15,610
me to market in the morning 
because that means I can nip to 

1076
00:43:15,620 --> 00:43:17,430
the shop, get stuff for dinner 
and not be rushing. 

1077
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,290
That's exactly what. 
So you you have that autonomy of

1078
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,290
OK, yes. 
You have to get the work done. 

1079
00:43:22,380 --> 00:43:25,100
But you know the joke of 
teachers finishing at half 

1080
00:43:25,110 --> 00:43:27,830
three? 
Sometimes you can like, yeah, 

1081
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,150
yeah, you do really need. 
If you have to make up the work 

1082
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,270
another time, you don't just get
to not do the work, then it's 

1083
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,950
not like, I don't know, imagine 
some office jobs, maybe you 

1084
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,280
might be able to leave early 
once a year. 

1085
00:43:36,290 --> 00:43:38,310
And yeah, we left early. 
Yeah, but you still you still 

1086
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:39,440
get to work. 
Still to do the work. 

1087
00:43:39,450 --> 00:43:42,750
Whereas I know I have friends in
in those kind of jobs where if 

1088
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:46,150
they were sort of burnt out by 
4:00 PM, they wouldn't be able 

1089
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,120
to just say to the boss, I'm 
just going to head home today, 

1090
00:43:48,130 --> 00:43:49,310
I'll come in an hour earlier 
tomorrow. 

1091
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:50,840
See you later. 
Yeah, that would be 

1092
00:43:50,850 --> 00:43:52,130
questionable. 
You would be able to do that 

1093
00:43:52,140 --> 00:43:53,590
where we can. 
And I love that. 

1094
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:54,500
That's what I love about the 
job. 

1095
00:43:54,510 --> 00:43:56,640
There is total freedom of if I 
want to go early, I'm going 

1096
00:43:56,650 --> 00:43:59,150
early and I have to come in 
tomorrow morning, get it done. 

1097
00:43:59,240 --> 00:44:01,080
That's up to me. 
No one's gonna question. 

1098
00:44:01,090 --> 00:44:02,070
Me. 
That is definitely balanced with

1099
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:03,190
the school environment that 
you're in. 

1100
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:06,910
Yeah, and maybe how experienced 
you are and how you know ballsy 

1101
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,730
you are basically to be like no,
no, no, that's not happening 

1102
00:44:09,740 --> 00:44:11,680
because of XYZ. 
Yeah, yeah, fine. 

1103
00:44:11,690 --> 00:44:14,770
Well, you know, someone at our 
school famously leaves every day

1104
00:44:14,780 --> 00:44:19,060
at, like, famously famously. 
It's in the annals of the 

1105
00:44:19,070 --> 00:44:22,280
school, written down past 
Regeneration school to 

1106
00:44:22,290 --> 00:44:25,980
generation the famous leaving 
early of Sam Hudson. 

1107
00:44:28,700 --> 00:44:31,970
You know, she she famously in 
our school leaves earlier like 

1108
00:44:31,980 --> 00:44:34,370
as in like 4-4. 
Damn right She knows what she's 

1109
00:44:34,380 --> 00:44:35,590
doing. 
She's been teaching forever. 

1110
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:37,610
Yeah, she's she's great at what 
she does. 

1111
00:44:37,620 --> 00:44:39,840
But she comes in at like 7. 
Exactly. 

1112
00:44:39,850 --> 00:44:40,850
Not earlier. 
Yeah. 

1113
00:44:40,860 --> 00:44:42,570
So she just flips her workload 
around. 

1114
00:44:42,580 --> 00:44:44,190
So I'll do marketing. 
I'll try and stay as late as I 

1115
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:45,780
can, get everything because I'm 
not a morning person. 

1116
00:44:45,790 --> 00:44:48,130
I'll get in as late as possible 
in the morning where she comes 

1117
00:44:48,140 --> 00:44:49,770
in an hour before me get it done
then. 

1118
00:44:49,780 --> 00:44:53,370
And that's OK. 
No one, no one, no one cares. 

1119
00:44:53,380 --> 00:44:55,860
Like it's like, yeah, as long as
you do the job like you, as long

1120
00:44:55,870 --> 00:44:57,690
as you're doing that free 
overtime, we don't mind when you

1121
00:44:57,700 --> 00:44:59,050
do it. 
Yeah, it's good job. 

1122
00:44:59,060 --> 00:45:02,660
You said famously because I was 
like, ohh what what kind of 

1123
00:45:02,710 --> 00:45:04,730
mythology of the school you 
gonna bring up this time? 

1124
00:45:04,740 --> 00:45:06,650
Ohh. 
Sam Hudson, The Myth, The. 

1125
00:45:06,660 --> 00:45:08,650
Legend, I reckon we can do some 
independent writing about. 

1126
00:45:08,660 --> 00:45:10,000
That, yeah. 
Sam listened to this sometimes. 

1127
00:45:10,010 --> 00:45:11,020
Yeah. 
This will be a good test, I 

1128
00:45:11,030 --> 00:45:12,160
think. 
I think she's fallen off the 

1129
00:45:12,170 --> 00:45:13,960
bank does anymore. 
Ohh. 

1130
00:45:13,970 --> 00:45:17,030
Come on guys, we'll see Sam. 
But when we're down to Liz Truss

1131
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,580
and Rishi Sunak? 
Ohh, losing all our listeners. 

1132
00:45:19,590 --> 00:45:21,480
Anyways, me. 
Yeah, this. 

1133
00:45:21,490 --> 00:45:24,860
This one is is obvious. 
I think we are guilty of 

1134
00:45:24,870 --> 00:45:27,050
overlooking it sometimes and 
there's a lot of reasons why. 

1135
00:45:27,060 --> 00:45:28,270
And again, we're in a positive 
mood. 

1136
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:29,450
I'm not gonna go for the 
negatives. 

1137
00:45:29,460 --> 00:45:31,540
And why It doesn't matter 
anyway. 

1138
00:45:31,590 --> 00:45:35,040
My point here is the school 
holidays and the pension. 

1139
00:45:35,050 --> 00:45:37,120
Like, let's be real for a 
second. 

1140
00:45:37,130 --> 00:45:39,550
Yeah, it's a fantastic perk of 
the job. 

1141
00:45:40,510 --> 00:45:41,920
Not gonna. 
I'm not gonna, I'm gonna say 

1142
00:45:41,930 --> 00:45:42,960
overtime. 
And you know what? 

1143
00:45:42,970 --> 00:45:45,740
The points are already. 
So, yeah, OK, maybe our whole 

1144
00:45:45,750 --> 00:45:47,380
scholar isn't. 
But you know what? 

1145
00:45:47,460 --> 00:45:52,100
If you've got kids and you are a
teacher, hmm, you do not need to

1146
00:45:52,110 --> 00:45:54,370
sort any childcare for 13 weeks 
of the year when the kids are 

1147
00:45:54,380 --> 00:45:55,880
off. 
Yeah, that is a headache for any

1148
00:45:55,890 --> 00:45:58,320
other adults who are working. 
Then you've got to take holiday 

1149
00:45:58,330 --> 00:46:02,160
time, unpaid time, roping their 
parents to help them, you know, 

1150
00:46:02,210 --> 00:46:05,640
make it work 13 weeks off in the
year. 

1151
00:46:05,650 --> 00:46:07,220
Again, we're linked to what you 
said. 

1152
00:46:07,290 --> 00:46:09,020
You have control over that time 
at least. 

1153
00:46:09,210 --> 00:46:10,520
Yeah, OK. 
You might have a bunch of 

1154
00:46:10,530 --> 00:46:12,110
planning to do in half time like
you did. 

1155
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,000
Could you have done that 
planning during term time? 

1156
00:46:15,010 --> 00:46:16,360
Let's say you're going away. 
Yeah, yeah. 

1157
00:46:16,370 --> 00:46:18,130
I'll just thinking you could 
have done some. 

1158
00:46:18,140 --> 00:46:19,710
Work. 
I just touched you again. 

1159
00:46:20,050 --> 00:46:21,450
That's number two for the 
episode. 

1160
00:46:21,460 --> 00:46:22,850
This time with your hand. 
You OK? 

1161
00:46:22,860 --> 00:46:25,300
Yeah, it was a bit. 
DAMP Do we need a break? 

1162
00:46:25,500 --> 00:46:32,020
No, I'm good condition. 
The doctors and check again. 

1163
00:46:33,350 --> 00:46:35,510
Go away the next half seven for.
Sorry, got Mr Mole Man's in 

1164
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:36,630
first. 
Hello. 

1165
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,650
I'd like to check my clammy 
hands, please. 

1166
00:46:38,660 --> 00:46:39,780
Would you like a phone 
appointment? 

1167
00:46:39,790 --> 00:46:41,530
Not really. 
Anyway. 

1168
00:46:41,900 --> 00:46:42,730
Yeah, let's go. 
Holidays. 

1169
00:46:42,740 --> 00:46:45,490
And the picture, the the perks. 
OK, so school holiday. 

1170
00:46:45,500 --> 00:46:47,680
I mean, it is what it is. 
Be all right. 

1171
00:46:47,690 --> 00:46:49,930
You ask me a question, so you 
could, you absolutely can. 

1172
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:51,920
And I know teachers that do 
this, they they will just 

1173
00:46:51,930 --> 00:46:55,720
sacrifice some of their evenings
in term time to just free up 

1174
00:46:55,730 --> 00:46:57,510
their half term completely with 
their kids or whatever. 

1175
00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:58,790
So it's doable. 
Absolutely. 

1176
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,270
And The thing is the pension. 
The pension is nowhere near as 

1177
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:03,290
good as it used to be. 
Let's get that straight. 

1178
00:47:03,340 --> 00:47:07,540
So yeah, I know we, yeah, we we 
we worked with someone who 

1179
00:47:07,550 --> 00:47:10,840
retired probably 2 years into 
our teaching, who finished on 

1180
00:47:10,850 --> 00:47:12,940
final salary and it's just like 
Ohh. 

1181
00:47:12,950 --> 00:47:14,090
And she was like, right up 
there. 

1182
00:47:14,100 --> 00:47:15,500
Yeah, ahead of you. 
She was complaining because she 

1183
00:47:15,510 --> 00:47:17,020
couldn't retire for years early.
It's like. 

1184
00:47:17,150 --> 00:47:21,300
Yeah, we won't be retiring. 
Yeah, so I mean. 

1185
00:47:21,310 --> 00:47:25,010
Pension is good. 
It was just this bloke who must 

1186
00:47:25,020 --> 00:47:28,900
be like 76 at a computer and he 
goes me sending silly emails so 

1187
00:47:28,910 --> 00:47:32,650
I can't retire till I'm 76. 
I'm just a bloke like it's meant

1188
00:47:33,170 --> 00:47:33,840
it's gonna be. 
Crazy. 

1189
00:47:33,850 --> 00:47:35,640
I can't imagine being a teacher 
in my 60s. 

1190
00:47:35,690 --> 00:47:39,570
I can't imagine being a teacher 
in my 30s by the end of by the 

1191
00:47:39,580 --> 00:47:42,030
end of the day, it's genuinely 
because for the same reason we 

1192
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:43,360
just been saying all this is 
fantastic. 

1193
00:47:43,370 --> 00:47:45,090
Basically it catches. 
Up with it is quite a young game

1194
00:47:45,100 --> 00:47:46,250
isn't it? 
I don't if I don't know your 

1195
00:47:46,260 --> 00:47:48,480
scores are like, but all the 
scores I've ever been in, yeah, 

1196
00:47:48,530 --> 00:47:50,410
generally it's like 
disproportionately weighted 

1197
00:47:50,420 --> 00:47:53,260
towards people in their 20s and.
30s and that's moves, I think 

1198
00:47:53,270 --> 00:47:56,360
over the years, yeah, when when 
we were in school, all teachers 

1199
00:47:56,370 --> 00:47:59,020
were like 50. 
Yeah, they just told her it was 

1200
00:47:59,030 --> 00:48:02,840
a highly regarded profession. 
But yeah, the perks, I think 

1201
00:48:02,890 --> 00:48:05,550
regardless of whether they're 
better or worse than they were, 

1202
00:48:05,610 --> 00:48:08,350
I still think they're very good.
And when you compare a teacher 

1203
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,950
pension to a normal pension. 
We got a great pension, guys. 

1204
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:12,510
Yeah, very, very. 
Paint it. 

1205
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:14,110
Paint it. 
Put pay as much as you can into 

1206
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:15,790
it like we should because we 
aren't part time. 

1207
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:17,070
Yeah, we got up it. 
We didn't. 

1208
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,320
Need to do that anyway. 
My last point, really. 

1209
00:48:19,900 --> 00:48:23,270
Summer term for not summer 
holidays, but the summer term. 

1210
00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:26,630
So in school, in school. 
It's just something about. 

1211
00:48:26,740 --> 00:48:28,740
I can just imagine it, right? 
I shut my eyes, I can literally 

1212
00:48:28,750 --> 00:48:30,490
picture it. 
There's something about some. 

1213
00:48:30,500 --> 00:48:34,700
Smelly year sixes. 
Yeah, all the doors and windows,

1214
00:48:34,740 --> 00:48:37,390
but going out onto the field for
whatever reason. 

1215
00:48:37,620 --> 00:48:40,330
And it's really sunny, beautiful
green grass. 

1216
00:48:40,410 --> 00:48:42,500
Everyone's just in that in in 
one layer of clothing because 

1217
00:48:42,510 --> 00:48:46,130
it's so warm and just being out 
there, there's something really.

1218
00:48:46,140 --> 00:48:48,440
Laying around us. 
Yeah, playing it round us, just 

1219
00:48:48,490 --> 00:48:51,580
whatever it is, whatever reason 
you're out there for is just. 

1220
00:48:51,830 --> 00:48:54,740
Is there a better moment as a 
teacher, when your class are 

1221
00:48:54,750 --> 00:48:56,820
playing a game of rounders? 
You're stood there, you're 

1222
00:48:56,830 --> 00:49:00,040
umpiring, It's 26°. 
You got your water bottle, you? 

1223
00:49:00,050 --> 00:49:04,050
Can catch it one handed out. 
What you do, what I do. 

1224
00:49:04,250 --> 00:49:07,420
And I walked up to bat one time 
and I was like, I've used to 

1225
00:49:07,430 --> 00:49:09,430
play cricket, so I'll, I'll go 
and straight man, it's done. 

1226
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:10,900
I was like, go on in guys. 
Come on in. 

1227
00:49:11,010 --> 00:49:13,350
Mr. Price, Mr. Price gonna play.
I went on the team that we're 

1228
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:14,720
losing. 
They needed around her to win. 

1229
00:49:14,790 --> 00:49:17,560
And I was like, actually, 
they've got one more batter. 

1230
00:49:17,570 --> 00:49:20,510
And I walked in. 
Yeah, the rest of no, not fair. 

1231
00:49:21,430 --> 00:49:23,500
I've got one more batter. 
And all the fielders like run 

1232
00:49:23,510 --> 00:49:24,620
back. 
Yeah, yeah, they'll run. 

1233
00:49:24,630 --> 00:49:26,000
Back You're gonna get really 
far. 

1234
00:49:26,010 --> 00:49:28,680
Got there. 
We've got one back through to 

1235
00:49:28,690 --> 00:49:30,980
me, the bowler. 
I absolutely whacked. 

1236
00:49:30,990 --> 00:49:33,630
It connected perfectly. 
Hit the kid right. 

1237
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:37,060
No, ohh, exactly what it was 
like last time about and I was 

1238
00:49:37,070 --> 00:49:38,910
like. 
Ohh, this is the risk of having 

1239
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,410
fun with the kids. 
Kid was absolutely fine. 

1240
00:49:41,460 --> 00:49:43,850
Yeah, no problem at all. 
Spoke to his parents after 

1241
00:49:43,860 --> 00:49:46,220
parents, absolutely fine. 
But the point just because. 

1242
00:49:46,230 --> 00:49:48,920
You did just pelt I came with. 
Basically, literally, literally 

1243
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,870
and just from having fun. 
It's like, yeah, this is really 

1244
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:52,930
good. 
You have to be careful. 

1245
00:49:52,940 --> 00:49:55,970
I've I've heard stories before 
of teachers joining in football 

1246
00:49:55,980 --> 00:49:58,130
at lunchtime and the child has 
broken their. 

1247
00:49:58,140 --> 00:50:00,020
Ankle Yeah, I know exactly who 
you talking about. 

1248
00:50:00,030 --> 00:50:02,200
I know because that same person 
gave me advice. 

1249
00:50:02,210 --> 00:50:05,610
Yeah, 8-9 years ago when I when 
he saw me, you know, I was 

1250
00:50:05,620 --> 00:50:07,750
talking last episode about how I
got a break times and. 

1251
00:50:08,130 --> 00:50:10,500
Do you think he's gonna love 
that he's come over to talk to 

1252
00:50:10,510 --> 00:50:11,560
me? 
Yeah, he's gonna tell me how 

1253
00:50:11,570 --> 00:50:12,150
good I am. 
Ohh. 

1254
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:12,740
Yeah, great. 
I am. 

1255
00:50:12,750 --> 00:50:15,800
And he was just like, he 
basically just said I don't 

1256
00:50:15,810 --> 00:50:18,690
forget he was like be extremely 
careful and he was like don't 

1257
00:50:18,700 --> 00:50:22,380
play 100% is that if you're 
running 100% your speed as a 

1258
00:50:22,390 --> 00:50:25,720
fully grown adult into an 8 year
old, you're going to hurt them 

1259
00:50:25,730 --> 00:50:28,000
like wait, accident or not 
you're going to lose your. 

1260
00:50:28,010 --> 00:50:30,100
Job makes people that Boris 
Johnson mean my he's playing 

1261
00:50:30,110 --> 00:50:34,680
soccer aid and he just literally
rugby as you play football. 

1262
00:50:34,870 --> 00:50:36,160
And that's that's him in 
presidency. 

1263
00:50:36,170 --> 00:50:38,180
That's the presidency, 
President, Presidency. 

1264
00:50:38,270 --> 00:50:40,090
He's the president. 
Of the UK, oh. 

1265
00:50:40,100 --> 00:50:43,470
God, but yeah, summer term, man.
Oh, it's just something. 

1266
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,730
Stupid your school do this guys.
If you're listening where in 

1267
00:50:45,740 --> 00:50:49,320
summer time, just randomly just 
an afternoon someone comes round

1268
00:50:49,330 --> 00:50:51,720
with lollipop like ice pops ice 
pops ice. 

1269
00:50:51,730 --> 00:50:53,150
Cream, any treat. 
Like that? 

1270
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:54,930
Thank you. 
Yeah, we're going to sit in the 

1271
00:50:54,940 --> 00:50:57,350
shade and read our books. 
That's what I was gonna say 

1272
00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:00,770
about summer time, even in I'll 
find an excuse in a maths lesson

1273
00:51:00,780 --> 00:51:03,810
to go outside. 
With the intensity of the 

1274
00:51:03,820 --> 00:51:06,260
sunray. 
It's sad. 

1275
00:51:06,270 --> 00:51:10,140
It's nice. 
So measure the distance from 

1276
00:51:10,150 --> 00:51:13,640
here to the sun, please, yeah? 
Yeah, any excuse to go outside. 

1277
00:51:13,650 --> 00:51:15,860
It is just lovely to be able to 
do that, yeah. 

1278
00:51:15,930 --> 00:51:18,500
It's just what a great perk of. 
The job stuck in a stuffy 

1279
00:51:18,510 --> 00:51:19,150
office. 
The air. 

1280
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:22,380
Cons broken? 
Yeah, get out there, my son. 

1281
00:51:22,450 --> 00:51:25,300
So we've got one final point 
that's just summarises, haven't.

1282
00:51:25,310 --> 00:51:27,180
Really touched you again. 
Ohh my. 

1283
00:51:27,190 --> 00:51:29,140
Touching my knees. 
I'm putting my knees really 

1284
00:51:29,150 --> 00:51:30,440
close. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1285
00:51:30,450 --> 00:51:32,300
Start Ohh, Dylan, stop touching 
my. 

1286
00:51:32,310 --> 00:51:35,120
Knees. 
It's making me feel comfortable.

1287
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:39,790
Anyway, anyway, so we kind of 
encapsulated this point, and 

1288
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:41,610
especially in the first five 
points, right? 

1289
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,130
I think we both kind of looked 
over and said ohh, there's a 

1290
00:51:44,140 --> 00:51:45,930
theme to mine. 
Ohh, there's a thing to mine. 

1291
00:51:45,980 --> 00:51:48,410
It was this. 
It was this, this job. 

1292
00:51:48,460 --> 00:51:50,120
Teaching is incredibly 
fulfilling. 

1293
00:51:50,780 --> 00:51:54,160
It's extremely rewarding. 
And that, you know, we could 

1294
00:51:54,170 --> 00:51:55,910
have said at the beginning 
episode, yeah, that's the best 

1295
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:57,750
thing about this job. 
But what I guess what we did 

1296
00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,990
really is we delved into why. 
I talked about exactly. 

1297
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,050
What I love exactly. 
Yeah. 

1298
00:52:01,060 --> 00:52:02,350
Yeah, yeah, that is what we 
love. 

1299
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:04,070
But yeah, they are. 
The most of those points were 

1300
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:05,570
because, yeah, it's really 
fulfilling. 

1301
00:52:05,580 --> 00:52:08,130
It makes you feel great. 
The point you made was really, 

1302
00:52:08,140 --> 00:52:10,640
really interesting. 
That is completely accidental. 

1303
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:14,550
Like the first few were just 
about the kids and and you speak

1304
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:17,030
to any teacher, it's the same. 
This isn't groundbreaking stuff.

1305
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,550
It might be nice to hear because
you're thinking ohh, that is 

1306
00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,060
what I like, but it's not. 
It's not groundbreaking after 

1307
00:52:22,070 --> 00:52:23,400
that. 
You know, there's not a lot 

1308
00:52:23,410 --> 00:52:25,140
keeping us in this profession. 
Mm-hmm. 

1309
00:52:25,180 --> 00:52:26,720
OK Yeah. 
We talked about the perks and 

1310
00:52:26,730 --> 00:52:29,340
stuff that come along with it. 
There are a lot of anti like 

1311
00:52:29,350 --> 00:52:32,000
perks, let's say, that go 
against those and why it's maybe

1312
00:52:32,010 --> 00:52:34,760
not so good. 
The only thing that keeps this 

1313
00:52:34,770 --> 00:52:40,520
profession afloat is the feeling
and the desire for teachers to 

1314
00:52:40,530 --> 00:52:42,840
be fulfilled. 
And that's where they're saying 

1315
00:52:42,850 --> 00:52:45,360
it's a vocation comes from. 
I think it's a terrible thing to

1316
00:52:45,370 --> 00:52:48,290
say because it diminishes the 
fact that it's a profession and 

1317
00:52:48,300 --> 00:52:51,300
a job. 
But at the end of the day, for 

1318
00:52:51,310 --> 00:52:55,060
some people it is a vocation. 
It doesn't mean that we have to 

1319
00:52:55,070 --> 00:52:57,400
treat it like 1. 
So please don't get misconstrue 

1320
00:52:57,410 --> 00:53:00,420
what I'm saying here, but it you
know that is what keeps us in 

1321
00:53:00,430 --> 00:53:02,090
the job though the love for the 
help. 

1322
00:53:02,100 --> 00:53:06,810
Of the children, if you also 
happen to like doing 26 hours of

1323
00:53:06,820 --> 00:53:07,750
unpaid. 
Overtime a week. 

1324
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,690
Then it's a win win. 
There's no downsides of the job 

1325
00:53:10,700 --> 00:53:12,800
do. 
You not remotely value your time

1326
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:14,860
because that was us when we were
NT, by the way. 

1327
00:53:14,870 --> 00:53:17,710
Jokes aside, that was us. 
My, I couldn't have enjoyed my 

1328
00:53:17,720 --> 00:53:20,750
life more for those first couple
of years because I didn't care. 

1329
00:53:20,980 --> 00:53:22,890
I I loved spending my time doing
it. 

1330
00:53:22,900 --> 00:53:25,540
But it actually wasn't vocation.
Yeah, it was properly, you know,

1331
00:53:25,550 --> 00:53:27,740
my life was teaching first 
couple of years and then life. 

1332
00:53:27,750 --> 00:53:29,850
You know, life builds up, You 
get a bit older and other things

1333
00:53:29,860 --> 00:53:31,900
come into life that are 
important and life changes. 

1334
00:53:31,910 --> 00:53:33,970
But you don't have a girlfriend 
You didn't have your own house 

1335
00:53:33,980 --> 00:53:37,660
you didn't have. 
Didn't have, you did. 

1336
00:53:38,270 --> 00:53:40,070
Yeah, we had each other. 
That's why we did it. 

1337
00:53:40,350 --> 00:53:42,440
No, I meant that in a way where 
you didn't have any kind of 

1338
00:53:42,450 --> 00:53:43,790
commitments. 
Back when we used to touch hands

1339
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:44,950
a lot more often. 
Don't. 

1340
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:46,000
David didn't. 
We Never did. 

1341
00:53:46,090 --> 00:53:47,580
Never. 
Let me don't cry about it. 

1342
00:53:47,590 --> 00:53:50,550
Never let me. 
Never let me as if I want to. 

1343
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:53,630
With their hands. 
I just want to hold hands with 

1344
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,670
Dylan, alright? 
Geez, right. 

1345
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:59,320
This is this is descending. 
Yeah, that's that's why we love 

1346
00:53:59,330 --> 00:54:00,740
teaching, guys. 
Why do you love teaching? 

1347
00:54:00,750 --> 00:54:02,550
Let us know. 
We're gonna play a Jingle and 

1348
00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:04,580
you've got a bit of a game. 
Is is it a? 

1349
00:54:04,590 --> 00:54:06,900
Game. 
It's my kind of game. 

1350
00:54:07,290 --> 00:54:09,180
It's a game. 
Because last week it was a game.

1351
00:54:09,190 --> 00:54:10,740
It wasn't. 
It was a question. 

1352
00:54:10,790 --> 00:54:14,360
This is a game. 
Come back over the jungle. 

1353
00:54:14,370 --> 00:54:19,940
It's a game. 
OK, on the subject of earlier, 

1354
00:54:19,950 --> 00:54:23,080
me forgetting the medical box, I
forgot that that literally the 

1355
00:54:23,090 --> 00:54:25,190
second before we started 
recording, I put out a little 

1356
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,500
Instagram thing asking people 
what their favourite part of the

1357
00:54:28,510 --> 00:54:29,730
job is. 
They've only had one hour. 

1358
00:54:29,740 --> 00:54:31,360
We've had a few replies. 
I'm just going to read the first

1359
00:54:31,370 --> 00:54:32,470
one because I know we're 
running. 

1360
00:54:32,510 --> 00:54:35,620
So this is from Robert. 
OK, this really made me laugh 

1361
00:54:35,630 --> 00:54:37,140
because it links to what we're 
saying. 

1362
00:54:37,220 --> 00:54:40,380
His favourite thing about the 
job is the things the kids come 

1363
00:54:40,390 --> 00:54:42,760
up with. 
So just just what the children 

1364
00:54:42,770 --> 00:54:45,000
come out with in general. 
And he's given the exact 

1365
00:54:45,010 --> 00:54:47,390
example, though, of his children
have given him a nickname. 

1366
00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:48,460
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

1367
00:54:48,500 --> 00:54:51,010
Mr Torture. 
Ohh wow. 

1368
00:54:51,020 --> 00:54:52,890
What a name. 
We're going to dive into that. 

1369
00:54:53,380 --> 00:54:55,440
But the fact that kids are 
calling them that, I don't know.

1370
00:54:55,450 --> 00:54:58,200
To me, again, it just, it just 
stinks. 

1371
00:54:58,210 --> 00:55:00,530
It stinks is the wrong word. 
Like it just reeks of week is 

1372
00:55:00,540 --> 00:55:02,810
also the wrong word. 
It gives off this idea. 

1373
00:55:02,820 --> 00:55:04,140
It's positive. 
I promise, Robert. 

1374
00:55:04,300 --> 00:55:07,840
It gives off this idea that the 
kids are so comfortable with it.

1375
00:55:07,850 --> 00:55:11,000
Yeah, like having such a good 
time and like they build those 

1376
00:55:11,010 --> 00:55:13,430
really strong bonds. 
And yeah, that is something that

1377
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,070
I had to make from. 
That story alone, I bet. 

1378
00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:16,610
I bet he's a fun. 
Teacher Yeah, exactly. 

1379
00:55:16,620 --> 00:55:17,870
The fact that you let his kids 
call him. 

1380
00:55:17,940 --> 00:55:18,980
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Yeah, that's fine. 

1381
00:55:18,990 --> 00:55:21,330
It's just got business. 
And I think linked on to that is

1382
00:55:21,340 --> 00:55:23,620
what the kids come out with, the
things the kids literally come 

1383
00:55:23,630 --> 00:55:26,610
up with, Yeah, yeah, just in 
general is one of my favourite. 

1384
00:55:26,620 --> 00:55:28,390
Well, that's hilarious. 
And and I know you don't know 

1385
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:30,900
this because that that links so 
well to this game. 

1386
00:55:31,030 --> 00:55:32,960
And you got a national game. 
Yeah, OK, go on. 

1387
00:55:33,270 --> 00:55:34,730
It's a game. 
It's a game. 

1388
00:55:34,740 --> 00:55:36,260
It involves questions, but. 
It's you know what? 

1389
00:55:36,270 --> 00:55:37,450
I'm gonna. 
I don't know anything about 

1390
00:55:37,460 --> 00:55:38,890
this. 
Usually Hayden makes me in 

1391
00:55:38,900 --> 00:55:40,060
charge of the podcast. 
No. 

1392
00:55:40,490 --> 00:55:43,980
So I was I thought there were it
would be funny to do some just 

1393
00:55:43,990 --> 00:55:46,160
at some point just to do some 
would you rather questions to 

1394
00:55:46,170 --> 00:55:47,480
you some really really silly 
ones. 

1395
00:55:47,490 --> 00:55:49,950
Right, yeah, which I've got 
written down. 

1396
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:52,030
But then I went to the castle. 
This would be funny to do the 

1397
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:55,050
kids and and I sat there with 
some kids like a break time and 

1398
00:55:55,060 --> 00:55:57,470
and part of lunchtime as well 
and we were just laughing our 

1399
00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,960
heads off thinking of silly 
would you rather questions that 

1400
00:55:59,970 --> 00:56:01,810
we could ask you. 
And obviously like kids. 

1401
00:56:01,820 --> 00:56:04,270
Kids are just make up nonsense. 
So some of these are just 

1402
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,560
complete nonsense. 
Most of them are made by the 

1403
00:56:06,570 --> 00:56:07,720
kids. 
First was by me, a couple of 

1404
00:56:07,730 --> 00:56:09,870
others by me as well. 
So the first one I thought of 

1405
00:56:11,270 --> 00:56:13,110
this online, which is what 
inspired me, right, this 

1406
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:14,370
question. 
I was like, this is so Dylan 

1407
00:56:14,380 --> 00:56:16,890
gone. 
Would you rather never lose 

1408
00:56:16,900 --> 00:56:21,050
anything ever again? 
Or find everything you've ever 

1409
00:56:21,060 --> 00:56:24,390
lost all in one place? 
Could you lose everything? 

1410
00:56:24,820 --> 00:56:27,050
Right, I know this. 
Actually, I'd rather never. 

1411
00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:29,950
Lose anything ever again. 
Because I've either made my 

1412
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,670
peace with what I've lost or 
I've also got a really nice 

1413
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,990
support system around me of 
people who understand how bad I 

1414
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:38,830
am losing stuff and they often 
help me to find it so nice when 

1415
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:40,030
whenever I try and find 
anything. 

1416
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:43,140
Right, I will, I will always ask
everyone in that house or who's 

1417
00:56:43,150 --> 00:56:44,620
with me. 
Have you seen ex? 

1418
00:56:44,870 --> 00:56:47,920
OK Have you seen this or not? 
And and they'll go. 

1419
00:56:48,230 --> 00:56:50,560
Have you looked for it yet? 
I'm like, no, obviously. 

1420
00:56:50,610 --> 00:56:53,590
Because if you know where it is,
I'll go straight to that place 

1421
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:54,570
and pick it up. 
Yeah, I did. 

1422
00:56:54,580 --> 00:56:57,060
So I'm not gonna waste. 
No, I've not asked you. 

1423
00:56:57,270 --> 00:56:59,540
Well, it's here, See. 
Good job by us. 

1424
00:56:59,550 --> 00:57:01,320
Save me some time back now. 
Got it mate. 

1425
00:57:01,330 --> 00:57:04,420
Yeah, yeah, I'm the same. 
So moving on now swiftly to the 

1426
00:57:04,430 --> 00:57:06,820
nonsense for a couple of these 
from Kids Brilliant. 

1427
00:57:07,450 --> 00:57:09,460
Would you rather have ham hands?
Or armpits. 

1428
00:57:09,470 --> 00:57:16,280
That dispense lotion. 
I'll repeat that for you would 

1429
00:57:16,290 --> 00:57:19,340
rather have ham hands. 
Or armpits that dispense lotion.

1430
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,300
Definitely armpits that this 
spreads lotion. 

1431
00:57:22,450 --> 00:57:25,140
Constantly, constantly 
dispensing motion. 

1432
00:57:25,150 --> 00:57:28,020
Looks like mine are right. 
Yeah, yeah, no, definitely. 

1433
00:57:28,030 --> 00:57:30,020
Definitely. 
Because like, people have sweat 

1434
00:57:30,030 --> 00:57:30,980
patches and stuff under their 
arm. 

1435
00:57:30,990 --> 00:57:33,330
It's more normal than someone 
turning up and saying nice to 

1436
00:57:33,340 --> 00:57:36,340
meet you. 
Some floppy hair, you know. 

1437
00:57:36,350 --> 00:57:38,140
Yeah, but it's constantly. 
Dispensing, though, it's not, 

1438
00:57:38,150 --> 00:57:39,040
you can. 
Just do it on demand. 

1439
00:57:39,050 --> 00:57:40,820
You're ohh heard. 
Yeah. 

1440
00:57:40,870 --> 00:57:42,420
Alright, alright, fair enough. 
OK, another one. 

1441
00:57:42,430 --> 00:57:43,300
Another silly. 
One, Yeah. 

1442
00:57:43,350 --> 00:57:45,360
So I'm gonna build up a 
character here so. 

1443
00:57:45,370 --> 00:57:47,520
I'm never gonna lose anything 
again, and I've got lotion 

1444
00:57:47,530 --> 00:57:49,350
pouring in my office. 
OK, let's find out where you 

1445
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:51,660
live, would you? 
Rather get sucked into a black 

1446
00:57:51,670 --> 00:57:55,380
hole or live inside an Ant. 
Please come up. 

1447
00:57:57,070 --> 00:57:59,970
I don't know the one where I 
don't get crushed to death like 

1448
00:57:59,980 --> 00:58:02,920
by the black. 
I guess I'm I am I my current 

1449
00:58:02,930 --> 00:58:06,040
size inside of an Ant? 
No, you would strengthen the 

1450
00:58:06,050 --> 00:58:08,000
size. 
That would fit inside an Ant and

1451
00:58:08,010 --> 00:58:09,840
if I get eaten up by the black 
hole. 

1452
00:58:09,910 --> 00:58:11,620
No one knows what happened. 
But you're alive. 

1453
00:58:11,630 --> 00:58:12,850
I can't take the risk. 
That black. 

1454
00:58:12,860 --> 00:58:14,780
Hole, yeah, looking to. 
Stella Yeah, maybe I'll go back 

1455
00:58:14,790 --> 00:58:19,160
in time see my parcels like no, 
go into the Ant, go into the 

1456
00:58:19,170 --> 00:58:21,350
and. 
Good. 

1457
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,810
It's quite good actually. 
Would you rather be able to turn

1458
00:58:24,820 --> 00:58:27,930
invisible? 
But it's only your body and 

1459
00:58:27,940 --> 00:58:30,350
never the clothes, so he's just 
constantly have to be naked if 

1460
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,810
you want to be visible. 
Or just walk around close or be 

1461
00:58:33,820 --> 00:58:36,510
able to fly. 
But it only works when you're in

1462
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:39,880
the sitting position, so they 
both got like. 

1463
00:58:39,890 --> 00:58:42,260
Annoying drawback. 
Would much rather fly because 

1464
00:58:42,270 --> 00:58:43,280
you sit down while. 
Flying. 

1465
00:58:43,290 --> 00:58:44,740
Yeah, you can only do in the 
city position. 

1466
00:58:45,450 --> 00:58:47,100
Fine. 
You can't fly like Superman. 

1467
00:58:47,150 --> 00:58:48,580
Ohh no. 
What a shame. 

1468
00:58:48,650 --> 00:58:49,300
The only. 
Yeah. 

1469
00:58:49,310 --> 00:58:51,600
The only reason I'd want to fly 
is to look like Superman, not to

1470
00:58:51,610 --> 00:58:52,860
get somewhere quick. 
I don't. 

1471
00:58:52,870 --> 00:58:54,370
Invisible sounds kind of cool 
though. 

1472
00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,490
Fly, Fly all. 
Taking the fly, Yeah, it's like 

1473
00:58:57,860 --> 00:59:00,990
match, especially living inside 
of me. 

1474
00:59:01,380 --> 00:59:02,760
Flying in Ohh look at it 
sitting. 

1475
00:59:02,770 --> 00:59:05,020
Down. 
Maybe it's not flying. 

1476
00:59:05,030 --> 00:59:07,850
Ants are. 
Just people have answered this 

1477
00:59:07,860 --> 00:59:11,080
and it's. 
Come true just sitting out look 

1478
00:59:11,090 --> 00:59:13,610
like. 
Are they are? 

1479
00:59:13,620 --> 00:59:15,110
They, standing with their body, 
bend do. 

1480
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:16,530
They ever stand. 
What? 

1481
00:59:16,540 --> 00:59:18,890
What is it in its natural? 
Position I don't know. 

1482
00:59:18,900 --> 00:59:20,520
Can we find out where to ask the
audience? 

1483
00:59:20,530 --> 00:59:22,830
What was sitting outside like? 
It's like they've seen those 

1484
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:23,680
memes. 
It's like. 

1485
00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:25,950
How would a dinosaur scarf 
would? 

1486
00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:27,960
They were up here, Would they 
wear down those kind of things? 

1487
00:59:27,970 --> 00:59:30,590
By the way, I saw one that was a
tie. 

1488
00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,320
Or scarf a dinosaur The 
brontosaurus. 

1489
00:59:33,330 --> 00:59:34,810
Yeah, with the with the long 
neck. 

1490
00:59:34,860 --> 00:59:36,950
It would definitely wear the tie
down the bottom of the neck. 

1491
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,590
No ohh at the top right. 
There. 

1492
00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:40,470
Do you wear a? 
Do you? 

1493
00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:41,930
Wear a tie. 
Now at the top of your neck. 

1494
00:59:41,940 --> 00:59:44,790
Yeah, everyone surprised me. 
Did I do. 

1495
00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:46,820
I won't. 
Just just here under my chin. 

1496
00:59:48,030 --> 00:59:49,550
I mean, yeah, you would. 
Otherwise it just flop around. 

1497
00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:51,450
Wouldn't put your head. 
Ohh yeah, that's the reason, 

1498
00:59:52,100 --> 00:59:53,410
yeah. 
That's the reason. 

1499
00:59:53,900 --> 00:59:55,900
Right now, one ready Would you 
be? 

1500
00:59:55,980 --> 00:59:59,250
Would you rather be able to eat 
anything you want and have it be

1501
00:59:59,260 --> 01:00:02,030
perfect nutritional value? 
Thinking of your diet right. 

1502
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:05,450
Or you can you can sleep. 
You only have to sleep for. 

1503
01:00:05,460 --> 01:00:07,390
One hour and you'll be perfectly
rested. 

1504
01:00:07,660 --> 01:00:09,400
So eat what you want and it's 
always perfect. 

1505
01:00:09,410 --> 01:00:11,350
Nutrition doesn't what you eat 
or sleep. 

1506
01:00:11,420 --> 01:00:12,730
One hour a day. 
It's really perfect. 

1507
01:00:12,740 --> 01:00:14,270
Sleep. 
The final one? 

1508
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:15,430
Yeah, kids. 
No, that's a good one. 

1509
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:25,650
Yeah, I would say have some 
self-control with your food and 

1510
01:00:25,660 --> 01:00:27,430
then take the sleep option is 
that you're doing that right 

1511
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:28,410
now. 
Yeah, because you. 

1512
01:00:28,420 --> 01:00:29,750
Can't you can't have 
self-control? 

1513
01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:31,150
Of sleep. 
You just will need 8 hours of 

1514
01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:31,780
sleep. 
Yeah. 

1515
01:00:31,790 --> 01:00:34,620
Whereas with this, if I take the
sleep option, one hour of rested

1516
01:00:34,630 --> 01:00:36,970
sleep and then I couldn't 
control of my diet, I can have 

1517
01:00:36,980 --> 01:00:38,420
the best bipods. 
Fair enough. 

1518
01:00:38,430 --> 01:00:41,310
That's a good answer. 
I like that this one is it. 

1519
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:44,670
Would you rather retain all of 
our listeners to the end of the 

1520
01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:48,550
podcast or keep doing? 
This one is from the Internet 

1521
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:50,130
and I you probably seen it 
before, but I don't know what 

1522
01:00:50,140 --> 01:00:53,010
your answer Would you rather 
fight one duck the size of a 

1523
01:00:53,020 --> 01:00:56,010
horse or a hundred horses the 
size of ducks? 

1524
01:00:56,100 --> 01:01:00,350
Absolutely, absolutely. 100 
horses the size of bucks, you. 

1525
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:02,330
Think Can you imagine a duck the
size of a horse? 

1526
01:01:02,340 --> 01:01:03,670
Being like I'm going to have. 
You. 

1527
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,150
I'm going to have you. 
Yeah, I'll be like, alright, I'm

1528
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:07,970
not beating up a duck the size 
of a horse. 

1529
01:01:07,980 --> 01:01:09,750
I reckon both would absolutely 
rinse us. 

1530
01:01:10,340 --> 01:01:12,090
Maybe. 
I reckon 100 little horses. 

1531
01:01:12,100 --> 01:01:13,670
But it depends on like. 
If we can. 

1532
01:01:15,710 --> 01:01:17,770
But it depends. 
Like, are they malicious or are 

1533
01:01:17,780 --> 01:01:19,520
they just existing? 
Oh yeah, this is the fight. 

1534
01:01:19,850 --> 01:01:21,860
This is a fight you're pinning. 
They wanna kill you. 

1535
01:01:21,870 --> 01:01:22,960
Yeah, you're done. 
You're done. 

1536
01:01:22,970 --> 01:01:25,280
The thing is, though, you'd last
longer with a hundred horses 

1537
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:26,660
that size of ducks. 
Yeah. 

1538
01:01:26,700 --> 01:01:30,760
If if a dark the size of a horse
wanted to kill you, they just 

1539
01:01:30,770 --> 01:01:34,600
came over, came over. 
I've got another. 

1540
01:01:34,610 --> 01:01:36,170
Mental one from the kids, right?
OK. 

1541
01:01:36,180 --> 01:01:37,830
Well, we'll end on this one 
because it's just complete 

1542
01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:39,130
nonsense. 
Doesn't make sense. 

1543
01:01:39,340 --> 01:01:42,130
Would you rather Would you 
rather have? 

1544
01:01:42,140 --> 01:01:46,200
Denim skin or live? 
In a bag of milk, there we go. 

1545
01:01:46,850 --> 01:01:50,020
Make any sense? 
Fun, obviously. 

1546
01:01:50,030 --> 01:01:51,910
Denim skin? 
Yeah, definitely. 

1547
01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:53,400
Yeah. 
You can tell kids made it cause 

1548
01:01:53,410 --> 01:01:55,010
like they're they're they're 
stupid. 

1549
01:01:55,020 --> 01:01:58,130
But there's one clear answer. 
What Living milk. 

1550
01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:01,010
Can you imagine living in milk? 
You stink as well you know. 

1551
01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,180
Denim skins are, I take. 
That anyway, you look like 

1552
01:02:04,190 --> 01:02:06,510
Justin Timberlake from the early
2000s all the time. 

1553
01:02:06,630 --> 01:02:10,460
You're welcome, even as. 
They would have failed update 

1554
01:02:10,470 --> 01:02:12,100
denim getting rather denim 
skirt. 

1555
01:02:12,110 --> 01:02:13,560
Yeah, that one.

1556
01:02:13,570 --> 01:02:15,790
Yeah. 
Thanks again. 

1557
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:17,430
Yeah, there was.

1558
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:19,010
like, really. 
Existential deep one. 

1559
01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:20,490
Do you want to finish on that 
one? 

1560
01:02:20,540 --> 01:02:22,610
Ohh, it seems that we are going 
because I was like. 

1561
01:02:22,620 --> 01:02:24,090
We're not sure this one is, this
was. 

1562
01:02:24,100 --> 01:02:25,510
Hard. 
OK, well, we'll finish this off 

1563
01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:27,430
with this one. 
You're presented. 

1564
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,870
Ohh. 
With an option denim skin, you 

1565
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:32,820
can be immortal. 
Hmm. 

1566
01:02:33,550 --> 01:02:35,660
And I'm talking true more. 
I am so far you. 

1567
01:02:35,670 --> 01:02:37,010
Will go to the end of the 
universe. 

1568
01:02:37,020 --> 01:02:38,280
Mm-hmm. 
For the heat death of the 

1569
01:02:38,290 --> 01:02:40,060
universe. 
Well, and then you'll die. 

1570
01:02:40,150 --> 01:02:41,950
No, you're just it's. 
Just you just exist forever. 

1571
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:43,330
You're. 
Properly immortal. 

1572
01:02:43,470 --> 01:02:45,100
Be great for a few million 
years, I'm sure. 

1573
01:02:45,310 --> 01:02:50,100
Yeah or you die now. 
Ohh mortal Jesus Christ. 

1574
01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:51,080
That's. 
Harder, isn't it? 

1575
01:02:51,090 --> 01:02:52,340
No. 
Do you not think? 

1576
01:02:52,350 --> 01:02:53,640
No. 
I really thought about that. 

1577
01:02:53,650 --> 01:02:55,160
Death or not. 
Hmm. 

1578
01:02:55,210 --> 01:02:56,980
Yeah, but you just be alive 
forever. 

1579
01:02:56,990 --> 01:02:59,000
Like even for billions of years 
of nothing. 

1580
01:02:59,010 --> 01:03:01,100
Sounds great. 
Sounds. 

1581
01:03:01,110 --> 01:03:03,320
Better than not doing it, I I 
went for. 

1582
01:03:03,330 --> 01:03:05,570
I picked a mortal in my. 
Head because I was like, I 

1583
01:03:05,580 --> 01:03:07,470
reckon, I reckon within a few 
billion years we can create 

1584
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:10,570
something where I can go and 
live in like virtual reality or 

1585
01:03:10,580 --> 01:03:11,000
something. 
You. 

1586
01:03:11,010 --> 01:03:13,320
Don't die. 
I'll just shoot off into space. 

1587
01:03:13,430 --> 01:03:15,760
But I'm not gonna die. 
Yeah, I'm not gonna die. 

1588
01:03:15,770 --> 01:03:17,910
Can't fly though. 
No, it's gonna rocket. 

1589
01:03:19,030 --> 01:03:20,890
Yeah, anyway, yeah, definitely, 
definitely. 

1590
01:03:20,900 --> 01:03:22,430
I reckon that question. 
Though is going to be something 

1591
01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:27,500
pops in my head like frames. 
Yeah, maybe not, maybe not. 

1592
01:03:27,510 --> 01:03:29,160
Would you waking up for the 4th 
time?

fact.

I've been awake since. 1:00 AM 
this morning.

Horrible. 
Heartburn.

Couldn't say. 
Disgusting. 

1599
01:03:38,950 --> 01:03:41,170
Rory was stepped through, almost
like he was teasing me. 

1600
01:03:41,220 --> 01:03:43,810
You don't have to be awake, I'm 
sleeping nicely. 

1601
01:03:43,900 --> 01:03:45,310
I thought you got rid of all 
this. 

1602
01:03:46,070 --> 01:03:47,770
And it's coming back on. 
It's hurting now, so I'm gonna.
