Summary

Recorded right at the business end of term, this episode has full “teacher in December” energy: Lee’s full of lurgy, the voice is hanging on by a thread, and everyone listening will feel very seen. The lads chat about the run-in to Christmas, the looming Christmas special, and that strange mix of exhaustion and silliness that only happens in the last couple of weeks of term. There’s a big chunk of nostalgia and comfort food chat as they get into the truly important question: what do you call the end bit of a loaf of bread? The episode also digs into the chaos of adult life and parenting: how mums and dads handle tech (or don’t), the bizarre logic some parents live by, and the moment you realise the people who told you not to believe everything on the internet now believe everything on the internet. There’s also some big tour news woven through the episode. Off the back of over 15,000 tickets sold, the Let That Be A Lesson tour is being extended with new dates across October 2026 and February 2027, on top of the February and May 2026 shows already announced. It’s the perfect “teacher night out” slash “please save me from another candle set” gift. All dates and tickets are at twomrpspodcast.com. On top of that, TeachMate has had a full glow up and the team are offering free January school trials so staff can hit 2026 with something that actually reduces workload. If you’re SLT, a subject lead, or just the mug who gets given all the jobs, you can get your whole staff set up to try it in the new year. 👉 Free school trial link: https://share-eu1.hsforms.com/1SN__V9WLT7-B4eILexLzQA2fcwrf The episode rounds off with a reminder that next week is the Christmas Special: they want nativity disasters, staff do confessions, dodgy presents, festive fails and all the brilliantly chaotic Christmas stories from school and home.
