Summary

Joe is back home in Michigan this week, and he takes a trip down memory lane by looking over his high school yearbook only to find the horror-story that was 2005’s fashion styles! He’s then joined by the amazing teacher-turned-comic Chinedu Unaka and they chat about his experiences with Teach-For-America, when to pick your battles, and how middle schoolers are great at two things: manipulation and smelling bad!
