Description

For this episode, we're joined by Robert Wilder, author of Tales From The Teachers Lounge—a humorous and brutally honest collection of essays about what it really means to be a teacher today.

After leaving a lucrative advertising career in New York, Robert took a teaching job at an alternative school in Santa Fe—and never looked back. Now, he shares his sharp-witted, laugh-out-loud insights as a teacher, parent, and former student, revealing the absurd, challenging, and rewarding realities of education.
