From shimmying across the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour stage to debating if kindergarteners should really be tested on life skills (like tying their shoes ), the crew gets candid about how testing impacts classrooms everywhere. We're talking testing buckets, crazy school rules, snack scandals (Oreos?!), and why teachers end up pacing thousands of steps during exam week. And of course, it wouldn't be TOD without plenty of laughter, roasting, and a few Disney detours (because yes, somehow state testing and Disney magic do connect). Whether you're a teacher, parent, or just here for the laughs, this episode will remind you why educators everywhere deserve a standing ovation.
