🎓 Who's in charge here? đŸ„

In this episode, Band Dads Chris and Scott shine a spotlight on the real MVPs of every program—the Band Directors. Scott pulls back the curtain on what it takes just to become a band director, revealing that the path to a bachelor’s in music education rivals most master’s programs in workload. And once you're hired? You're basically the CEO of a small company at 22, responsible for more moving parts and student lives than anyone else on campus.

The dads also dive into how to best communicate with your band director (hint: find the “band director whisperer”), all while sprinkling in their signature Band Dad humor.

This episode features a special intro and outro courtesy of Band Director Jeff Heid and the Muscatine High School Band, proud home of the Mighty Muskie Marching Band—huge thanks to them for their contribution!

And yes—Band Dad Chris says this one’s his favorite episode yet!
