  • LO: To feel the cringe with second hand embarrassment

    LO: To feel the cringe with second hand embarrassment
    Jan 28 2026
    Recorded deep in the never-ending January slump and straight after another padel game, Episode 238 is classic Two Mr Ps energy: slightly smug from a win, physically knackered, and emotionally hanging on by a thread. The lads kick things off with padel chat, tour excitement, and a last call for tickets as the February half-term run creeps ever closer, with plenty of reminders that a night out laughing with other teachers might be the healthiest coping strategy available right now. From there, it’s straight into a listener-favourite blind ranking, this time tackling the ultimate “extras” every teacher secretly dreams of having in their classroom. It quickly turns into a very honest reflection on what actually makes teaching easier day to day, with a few regrets, some strong opinions, and one clear winner that sums up how stretched schools really are. The episode then shifts into a more serious but very familiar rant about phones, social media, trust in teachers, and why schools keep getting lumbered with extra scrutiny for problems that largely come from outside the classroom. There’s frustration, realism, and a clear line drawn between useful technology and the attention-hijacking platforms that are causing far bigger issues for young people and adults alike. After that, things spiral beautifully into pure chaos. There are threads packed with main-character moments that went catastrophically wrong, second-hand embarrassment stories so painful you’ll want to pause the episode, and plenty of smug confidence meeting instant karma. As ever, it proves that humility is underrated and public showboating rarely ends well. The second half is wall-to-wall teacher gold: funny things kids have said, misunderstandings that snowball out of control, accidental innuendos, awkward assemblies, mortifying slips of the tongue, and those moments where professionalism is hanging on by a very thin thread. There’s also a controversial confession that sparks genuine disbelief and a rare moment where the lads draw a firm line on what’s not okay, even by podcast standards. It all wraps up exactly how listeners expect: ridiculous stories, big laughs, shared cringe, and the comforting reminder that no matter how wild your week’s been, someone else’s has definitely been worse. ​📬 Want your story featured on the pod?

  • LO: To be careful leading a Big School Bird Watch assembly

    LO: To be careful leading a Big School Bird Watch assembly
    Jan 20 2026
    Recorded in peak January survival mode, Episode 237 is a proper classic Two Mr Ps ramble that somehow starts with tour warnings and ends with… absolute school-based chaos. The lads kick things off with a three week countdown to the next run of live shows, a bit of excitement about trialling full video episodes on YouTube, and a surprisingly long detour into haircuts, beards, and the deeply humbling world of acting self tapes, where Adam discovers that “throwing yourself into a role” sometimes just means your partner cry-laughing at you in the kitchen. From there, the episode leans into shared nostalgia and gentle self-ridicule, with stories of teenage acting, questionable school trips from the past, and Mr P very lightly taking credit for helping solve a crime via a Crimewatch reconstruction. As always, confidence is high. Accuracy is optional. The middle of the episode brings back another blind ranking. This time it’s the worst things a member of school staff can hear at 8.30am, prompting some very relatable debate about printers, WiFi, parents asking for “a chat”, and why vague meetings can ruin your entire day before it’s even started. If you’ve ever stood in a classroom mentally reprioritising your will to live before the bell, this bit will hit home. Things then slide neatly into a thread about the worst bits of general knowledge people have ever got confidently wrong, proving once again that adulthood does not guarantee understanding of geography, biology, space, or how the human body works. It’s comforting, alarming, and very funny in equal measure. The second half is packed with what the podcast does best: relentless teacher stories. Quick-fire pupil comebacks, accidental classroom burns, and moments of unintentional brilliance from children who absolutely did not mean to be funny, but very much were. There’s a strong run of anonymous submissions too, covering awkward parent interactions, catastrophic slips of the tongue, staffroom mishaps, EYFS horror stories, and the kind of incidents that could only ever happen in a school and could only ever be laughed about years later. It all builds to a finish that perfectly sums up the podcast: wildly inappropriate visuals, uncontrollable laughter, and the shared understanding that teaching is a job where no amount of training can prepare you for what you’ll actually experience. Chaotic, cathartic, and exactly the sort of episode that feels like a long staffroom chat after a very long day. ​📬 Want your story featured on the pod?

  • LO: To Know Who Is Strong, Built and Scary

    LO: To Know Who Is Strong, Built and Scary
    Jan 13 2026
    Recorded straight after a padel game and delivered from a slightly overheated garden studio, Episode 236 is very much a classic Two Mr Ps episode: chaotic, relatable, and held together by teacher tiredness and questionable decision making. The lads kick things off with wellbeing chat, winter survival mode, and the small victories that get you through January, before a quick reminder that the live tour is creeping up fast and having something in the diary can make a genuinely grim half-term feel survivable. From there, the episode leans heavily into what listeners love most: the everyday nonsense of school life. There’s a blind ranking of the most annoying things children say in lessons, plenty of shared frustration about classroom time-wasters, and a deep dive into how rumours start, spread, and somehow become accepted fact in schools, workplaces, and beyond. As always, the stories spiral quickly, proving that children, adults, and the internet are all equally capable of absolute nonsense. The second half is packed with the kind of teacher stories that make you laugh and wince at the same time: accidental innuendos, things kids say with total innocence but disastrous timing, and those moments where you have to keep a straight face despite everything in your body telling you not to. It wraps up with a listener dilemma that touches on authority, humour, and whether staff in leadership roles should be able to take a joke, sparking a surprisingly thoughtful discussion beneath the laughs. It’s one of those episodes that feels like a long staffroom chat at the end of a tough day: lots of laughing, a bit of venting, and the comforting reminder that if your week’s been a mess, you’re definitely not alone. ​📬 Want your story featured on the pod?
