In the end, when you listen to us you’ll remember why you got into education and come away from every episode learning something new that will change your thinking and push you forward.
Come on in.

We were thrilled to have Adam on the podcast this week. We dove into equity regarding conference presenters and keynoters, how he might be rethinking his approach to partners he deals with in the context of what they are doing related to social justice, and so much more!

In this episode Mike and Glen talk about how educators have responded to the current protests surrounding the murder of George Floyd. Our guest this week is educator and speaker Michael Bonner.
Guest: Michael Bonner
We had this talk with Michael planned a number of weeks ago. We obviously could never have expected that America would be gripped not just in the middle of a medical pandemic but now a societal pandemic as well. In fact, the societal pandemic has been there all along. That's what we talked to Michael about this week. This was the toughest interview we've ever had to prepare for. We learned a lot from Michael and we're so happy he took the time to share his voice with us during this time.

Guest: Matt Miller
We like Matt A LOT. He works hard, and you can tell everything he does is in service of helping teachers be the best they can be. We took him on a roller coaster of an interview this time. We asked him to weigh in on his favorite tech tools and we chatted about his new book. We also asked him about his thoughts on the "educelebrity" label and, as expected, his response was thoughtful and personal.
