  • How Banning Social Media Could Change Your Classroom
    Now do we really look like Miss Frizzle?  Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Do you think kids should be on social media? Our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon have their own strong opinions on this. Now looks can be deceiving, can you tell what someone teaches by just their appearance. Finally you wont believe what a local Florida teacher ended up getting arrested for.  Social media, we all love it, chances are you heard of our podcast through it, but should there be an age limit for it? A new major Florida law places a ban on social media for children under the age of 14. Is it good that they are escaping from the unrealistic beauty standards, online bullying and influencer culture of social media, or is it so ingrained in our society that they can't live without it? And more importantly what is the impact going to be on education? Tune in to hear our take! Now we all know the stereotypes for teachers, like how elementary school teachers always look like Miss Frizzle, and history teachers love their tweed jackets, so can you really judge a book by its cover, or are these stereotypes outdated?  Finally we go to a bit of a darker subject, in Brevard County, a teacher was arrested for hosting a speakeasy for their students. It's absolutely disappointing how long such an event went unnoticed, we are not sparing any details on this week's episode.    Support the Podcast on Patreon: patreon.com/cryinginmycar    Follow Devin at http://DevinComedy.com  https://www.tiktok.com/@devincomedy?lang=en  https://www.instagram.com/devinsiebold/  https://x.com/teachercomic    Follow James at http://JamesYon.com  https://www.tiktok.com/@jamesyoncomedy  https://www.instagram.com/jamesyoncomedian/    So unless you're over the age of 14 put away your phones, but make sure you still tune into this week's episode of Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers. _________________________________________________________ Crying In My Car Podcast with Devin Siebold & James Yon

  • Were Having a Bit of a School Mascot Mixup
    What does this Florida school teacher have against mocking jays?  Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon are going to be hyper fixated on animals. From 90s cartoons like Scooby Doo, school mascots, and state birds, they are obsessed, and you wouldn’t believe what they have to say about them.  When you think of school mascots, there are a couple of things that come to mind, like tigers, eagles, patriots, stuff like that; but you're not going to believe the new mascot in Florida schools. We don't want to give too much away, but let's just say, it was definitely a bold choice. Speaking of mascots, one specific teacher has been on a crusade recently about the Florida state bird. Talk about being passionate, this argument has been going on for a whopping 25 years! But at the end of the day, does this debate finally end up somewhere?  Now we take a break from talking about education, and reminisce about our favorite 90s cartoons. But when you really think about it, what is the impact that these cartoons had on children’s mental health? And how does this regularly scheduled programming differ from modern social media and the free access to entertainment?

  • Can We Catch a Break?
    Did you know that you don't need to read to teach?  Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon are venting this week about the struggles that teachers have to go through in their day to day lives. We kick off today's episode with an update about Devin's health. He's going to need tooth surgery here soon, but for some reason the biggest pain of this situation is getting the day off of work! As teachers, we all know that taking a sick day off can be nearly impossible. How are we supposed to prioritize our health when our jobs demand so much from us? And speaking of being taken advantage of, have you heard of the controversial Power School grading system? To put it simply, it makes grading easier for administrators but at the risk of having their personal information stolen! Is it really worth saving those extra couple minutes? Now on a lighter note, we learn that New Jersey has officially eliminated the reading requirement for becoming a teacher. Yes, you read that correctly. No reading required. You can only imagine a day in this classroom, it's definitely funny, not haha funny, more like funny weird.    Support the Podcast on Patreon: patreon.com/cryinginmycar    Follow Devin at http://DevinComedy.com  https://www.tiktok.com/@devincomedy?lang=en  https://www.instagram.com/devinsiebold/  https://x.com/teachercomic    Follow James at http://JamesYon.com  https://www.tiktok.com/@jamesyoncomedy  https://www.instagram.com/jamesyoncomedian/    Jump right in! 3:25 - Pajama Workwear Debate 8:10 - On-Campus Housing Reality 15:45 - Surgery Sick Leave Challenges 23:50 - Teaching vs. Potty Training 31:30 - Data Overload and Diapers 39:15 - Dodgeball and Spitballs Anecdotes   So fire up your sick days because we need a break on this week's episode of Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers.  _________________________________________________________ Crying In My Car Podcast with Devin Siebold & James Yon

  • Karate Kid has Nothing on This!
    This old school educational trick could change your classroom… Our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon are meeting in the dojo on this week's episode of Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers. In a world so focused on grades and tangible achievements, we often forget to ask what's best for education? This week they are going to go over odd classroom tendencies that teachers claim are absolute game changers for education.  Now we all know that education is hyper focused on subjects like math and science, but do you think that it would be more beneficial to focus on encouraging creativity to shape their young minds? Today our hosts are going to be discussing the pros and cons of sending your kids to a specialized art school and how it can impact their overall education. Speaking of alternative ways of teaching, we got news of one teacher who decided it was a good idea to teach karate in their classroom. Now we don't want to give away too much, but the results were interesting to say the least. Not only does it teach valuable skills, but it also helps release their built-up energy (and maybe some frustration, too).  Finally, have we strayed too far from tradition? Far gone are the days of using pen and paper and looking at physical report cards. With the rise of technology, are students and parents losing valuable skills, or is technology innovating education?

  • We’re Sick of This!
    What does a teacher have to do to get a sick day!? Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon are absolutely sick of how teachers' sick days are being handled. Apparently teachers have been calling out sick too much, so schools are really cutting down on sick days, which adds even more stress to the already taxing job of teaching.  From lesson plans to the constant pressure of keeping up with your students, being an educator is an extremely demanding profession. So this week we are talking about the best ways that teachers can let off some steam out of the classroom, but is it that easy to leave the classroom behind? Yea it would be great to play marvel rivals after school, but after making food and settling down, would it be better to just hit the sack because we got to do it all again tomorrow?  Now what happens when the stress becomes too much? Well apparently teachers have been getting in trouble for calling in sick too often. We have gotten word about this one instance where a teacher got fired for calling in sick. But was this teacher really playing hooky or were they dealing with a legitimate health issue? Tune in to find out.    Jump Right To It: 3:45 - Classroom Challenges Shared 9:30 - Dream vs. Duty Debate 15:20 - Teachers' Side Hustles 22:50 - Work-Life Balance Struggles 30:10 - Returning to Teach?   Support the Podcast on Patreon: patreon.com/cryinginmycar    Follow Devin at http://DevinComedy.com  https://www.tiktok.com/@devincomedy?lang=en  https://www.instagram.com/devinsiebold/  https://x.com/teachercomic    Follow James at http://JamesYon.com  https://www.tiktok.com/@jamesyoncomedy  https://www.instagram.com/jamesyoncomedian/     So grab some kleenex and vaporub because we were not feeling too good on this week's episode of Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers.  _________________________________________________________ Crying In My Car Podcast with Devin Siebold & James Yon
