School Bus Banter
Climb aboard for a ride you’ve never taken before. School Bus Banter pulls back the yellow curtain on the real world of school bus driving — the early mornings, the chaos, the heart, and the hilariously unexpected moments that only happen when you’re responsible for dozens of tiny humans before 8 a.m. Hosted by two veteran drivers who’ve seen it all (and probably cleaned it up), this show mixes on-the-road stories, behind-the-scenes insights, safety know-how, and the kind of humor you only earn by surviving years of middle-school field trips. Whether you drive a bus, used to ride one, or just enjoy stories that bounce between outrageous and relatable, you’re in the right seat. Start the engine. Close the door. Let’s roll.

A candy bag with a message. A rear door that swings open at speed. Two stories from the bus aisle reveal how fast a routine route can collide with law, policy, and real danger—and how much power drivers have to prevent the worst outcomes with clear boundaries and practiced habits.
We start with the controversial firing of a driver who handed out candy that included religious messages, unpacking what “private spe...

• K‑pop energy with first graders and why it worked

A sleeping seven-year-old, a silent bus lot, and hours of fear nobody should ever face—then a separate headline where a bus driver loses her job over holiday candy bags that sometimes included brief religious messages. We take you behind the wheel and into the gray areas where policy, safety, and humanity collide.
We start with the missed-sleeper case and break down the layers that should have stopped it: post-d...
We swap real tactics for safer routes and calmer buses, from inspection prep and decor rules to simple engagement tools that change behavior. A stop-arm runner and a tragic Maine case anchor a frank talk on mirror checks, slow roll-offs, and building time buffers.
• email and Facebook group invites for driver stories
• electrical failures on newer buses and field support
• inspection expectations, window clutter, and compli...
Blizzards, screaming kids, and a 40-foot “long car.” Ever wondered how bus drivers actually keep cool when roads ice over and the radio won’t shut up? Dive into winter driving, behavior hacks, and one spicy news story. Listen now—what grinds your gears most?
A simple “good morning” can flip a whole bus route. We unpack greeting tactics, seating strategy, and why radio chatter drives us nuts. Hit play and tell us: what’s o...
Two drivers share why they started a show about life behind the wheel and the kids who make it worth it. We trade a missing tooth saga, recruiting stories, and the simple rules and names that keep a bus cool and safe.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
