Ep 51: The Best Things About Teaching Are.....

1
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.
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.
I tell you what there was one

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?

1593
01:03:29,170 --> 01:03:30,330
Ohh, do you?
Know what?

1594
01:03:30,810 --> 01:03:32,230
We're gonna finish on a quick
fact.

1595
01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:34,110
I've been awake since. 1:00 AM
this morning.

1596
01:03:34,700 --> 01:03:36,330
Horrible.
Haven't slept since 1:00 AM.

1597
01:03:36,340 --> 01:03:37,150
Horrible.
Heartburn.

1598
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:38,870
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.
