💥 Ted FaceTimed Dave, There's a Typewriter, and Someone's Selling Cookies | NPD Podcast Ep 8

This week on the Non-Professional Development Podcast, we travel through time, side-hustles, and minor tech meltdowns — all in a single episode.

From mysterious typewriters and accidental FaceTimes to the strange pyramid-shaped energy of in-school cookie schemes, this episode delivers peak chaos and premium nostalgia. Plus: we’re doing something new again, and no, it still isn’t working the way it should.

🎧 What to Expect:

– A truly unhinged FaceTime moment between Dave and Ted

– A typewriter reemerges… for a mystery celebrity

– School-based cookie “fundraisers” that may or may not be pyramid schemes

– Peak throwback energy and back-in-my-day rants

– More teacher tangents, tech fails, and emotional damage

🙌 Why Tune In?

Because this is the only education podcast where you’ll hear about FaceTiming mid-crisis, pitching cookies like you're in an MLM, and using a typewriter to write to a celebrity (again). Nostalgia and nonsense wrapped in teacher exhaustion.

💥 Do Students Think We’re Spies? Also… Is Dave an AI? | NPD Podcast Ep. 7

This week on the Non-Professional Development Podcast, things get weird fast — and not just because Dave might be AI. From the awkward panic of being spotted by students “in the wild,” to the conspiracy theories kids believe about teachers having secret lives (spoiler: we do… it’s naps), we’re diving into the surreal space between public-school reality and teacher myth. Plus: deleted texts, identity crises, and trying something totally new. Or maybe we just glitched again.

🎧 What to Expect:

– The uncomfortable art of seeing students outside of school

– Wild teacher conspiracy theories (spy? robot? vampire?)

– Is Dave real… or is he ChatGPT with a beard?

– Digital confusion, deleted messages, and existential dread

– Trying new things, and failing forward like pros

🙌 Why Tune In?

Because every teacher has been stared at in a grocery store like an escaped zoo animal — and we all secretly wonder if Dave is too good to be human. This episode mixes relatable laughs, tech panic, and the awkward beauty of being a teacher with a "real" life.

💥 Summer’s Over, Dave’s Wet, and the School Year’s Coming Fast | NPD Podcast Ep. 6

This week on the Non-Professional Development Podcast, we’re swapping popsicles for panic as the school year barrels toward us like Dave in a sinking boat. From back-to-school jitters and chaotic classroom memories to summer nostalgia and one unforgettable boating camp mishap, this episode hits that weird, wobbly moment where fun ends, real life begins, and no one’s really ready.

🎧 What to Expect:

– Big emotional moments from past school years

– The struggle (and denial) of teacher prep

– Dave’s epic boating camp disaster

– Summer rituals, classroom flashbacks, and questionable transitions

– The awkward beauty of starting over (again)

🙌 Why Tune In?

Because returning to school is never smooth, especially when you're still mentally poolside. This episode is equal parts chaos, comedy, and coping — from belly flops to bulletin boards, we’re covering it all.
