  • Internal Affairs Not to Remember: The School Edition
    Jul 29 2025

    Host Lisa Hill peeks into the world of school staff romance. Who knew the faculty handbook needed a section called School Staff Romance: What Not to Do? Turns out, while some staff stuck to their assigned duties—like, you know, teaching—others turned 'duties as assigned' into their own romantic elective. Extra credit, anyone?

    Jul 15 2025

    Join host Lisa Hill as she shares the nicotine nonsense that happens during the school day. Whether it be in the school bathroom, classroom, or office, vaping and smoking in school happens on a daily basis. Seriously, despite it being illegal to smoke anything in a K12 school, there is always someone who sneaks a puff or a drag during the school day.
