Welcome back to the Teachers Off Duty Podcast! This week, Jess and Bri are joined by hilarious stand-up comedian and former teacher Cory Michaelis for a no-filter conversation packed with teacher advice, classroom chaos, and comedy tour stories you won’t believe.

Whether you're heading into your first year teaching or still recovering from your last one, this episode is your survival guide. We’re breaking down everything from managing teacher guilt and setting boundaries to avoiding middle schoolers who smell like “hot dog water” (you’ll get it when you watch). Plus, we dive into the real conversations teachers are having - from chaotic sub stories to open house hacks, and yes... how to survive with no coffee.

Oh, and if you’ve never laughed until you cried at the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour… prepare yourself. We're coming to Canada, California, and even Australia (kangaroo jokes included) this fall! Tickets are selling fast!
