Devin and James take a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about field trips from the past (hint: they used to be way cooler).

Can't say we would.

Teachers are always making headlines, and this week is no exception. From an inappropriate relationship between a student and teacher to the banning of Dolly Parton songs in schools, there's no shortage of drama. But there's also good news: a massive base-pay raise for teachers in Oregon and, well, not-so-good news: there are still a ton of open teacher positions in Florida with DeSantis taking the blame. We break it all down for you.

And for the main event: a middle school substitute teacher creates and facilitates an in-class fight club, complete with students forming a circle and throwing hands. Devin outlines the hilarious rules for Student Fight Club and relives his days as an enforcer.

Next up, the guys sink their teeth into some juicy news stories, discussing the tantalizing topic of PAID professional development in Virginia, and the eyebrow-raising double standard of punishments for a Miami teacher who got 20 years for an inappropriate relationship with a student, while a female teacher snagged a mere 60 days for the same crime. They chew on the need for reform while trying not to choke on the gravity of the situation.

Later in the show, Devin and James stumble upon the wackiest version of rock-paper-scissors ever called hooker-hunter-bear, and compete for the illustrious title of Crying in My Car's Ultimate Hooker-Hunter-Bear Master!

James unveils his first-ever top-ten list, "The Ten Signs Parents at Your School May Need a Dress Code," igniting a rollicking, comical debate. Not to be outdone, Devin counters with his own top ten ways that teaching is like being trapped in a superhero comic, wrapping up the show with another heroic flourish.
