Play along each month with special guest contestants from the world of education as we ask lots of questions about the latest school news and answer -- well, some of them.
If you want to laugh while you learn and learn while you laugh, this is the show for you! Plus, hear great insights from the guests and come away with a few nuggets of knowledge you can pass off as your own in our world-famous quiz games like Surfing the Headlines, Education Data Points of the Month, and True, False or Whaaaaattt? We're also the only education news comedy quiz podcast with its own in-show band, Tommy Dunbar and the Number Two Pencils.
“I laughed a lot as I learned – this is a fun way to catch up on significant education news – and the insights from the guests are first-rate.”
