A somewhat tri-weekly leftist podcast based in Portland, OR, talking with people about their cultural obsessions and offering plenty of our own recommendations. We try to make socialism more fun with pop culture refs, you could say.

88. Part 2 of Teaching Covid-Year 2 (ft. C Derick Varn, Melisa Crosby, and Beth Salmon)
Part 2 of our discussion with educators about what's been learnt in the past year plus about teaching kids(and ESL students) both online and in-person. In this part, we get into how much more stressful the return to in-person teaching has been. We're joined by Derick Varn, Melisa Crosby, and my sister Beth Salmon.
