Two Teachers Try to Start a Podcast (Badly)

Most podcasts lose you in the first five minutes. We’re trying not to.We’re Ben and James — two secondary school staff attempting to make a podcast that’s actually worth your commute. To keep it on track, we structure each episode like a lesson: register, objective, “I do, we do, you do”… and then watch it fall apart.In this episode, we follow a “how to start a podcast” guide and see what actually holds up when you’re recording for real. Expect questionable equipment decisions, DIY recording setups, and the reality of using things like the Zoom PodTrak P4 and Audacity without fully knowing what we’re doing.Along the way, we get distracted by behaviour systems, phone calls home, staffroom culture, and the strange language of school “vision”.If you work in education, think of it as informal CPD. If you don’t, it’s a behind-the-scenes look at what school actually feels like.Found a worse museum postcard? Survived a ridiculous school policy? Or just want to tell us your favourite biscuit?
