    This podcast has saved my sanity
    Thank you to Frazz and Redacted for making Teacher Quit Talk. Listening to smart people talk about terrible things and call out the gaslighting and stupid decision making has made me feel a little less insane.
  • nahhggg!!
    Love this podcast!
    Found this podcast via awalmartparkinglot on TikTok and love her videos!! I finally found my way to this podcast and listened to like 9 episodes in a row šŸ˜… As a fellow AP high school teacher, like Redacted, I know how tough teaching can be sometimes but this podcast provides humor, intelligent and fresh takes, and info on how to make teaching more manageable. Keep up the great work girls!
  • Teach for good
    Disappointed and embarrassed
    Plenty of foul language, snark, and off color content that reflects poorly of the demanding profession of education.
  • Lil Zeebo
    Genuinely funny
    Good laughs. Find randomly and revisit it from time to time.
  • Mr. Schupbach
    Each episode gets better
    Excellent expert analysis of the crisis facing the the U.S. education system. Teachers are sounding the alarm on the insurmountable job of teaching and the challenges surrounding learning. Take a listen!!

    Love this show
    Quit after 11 years. Now not as happy in corporate America, but far less stressed and much better paid, so you be the judge šŸ˜† You two are great together. Keep it up!

    Super Inconsistent Posting
    I really like this podcast but thereā€™s absolutely no schedule to the episodes being posted anymore.

    Not even a teacher but love it!
    Ladies! Love your show and enjoy following you on Instagram as well. In the ā€œBTS Scariesā€ episode, I was drawn to leave a comment about my reoccurring nightmare. I am back in undergrad and wandering around campus late for class, then realize I donā€™t know my schedule, donā€™t know my grades from last semesterā€¦ itā€™s awful. Keep the energy and humor (and truths) coming!

    Easy 5 Stars
    Iā€™m a teacher with 20 years of experience, and I love this podcast! Itā€™s highly relatable, and I love that these ladies are so quick-witted, and keep it real when it comes to the ever-changing roller coaster of education. Itā€™s a rewarding career, but itā€™s nice to know that we are not alone. Please keep it up ladies!

    Thank you
    I hate using the term obsessed, but I totally am with this show. I am a HS band director in Pennsylvania. In this position and in my former teaching job I had a pretty long commute where I was always exhausted and had trouble staying awake on the way home. I canā€™t listen to music because I do music all day, which is when is started listening to podcasts after school. I have cycled through so many different types - self help, teaching, motivational, running, etc. This is hands down the funniest, most relatable podcast that exists for teachers. I am not just engaged, I find myself laughing out loud regularly. I binged all of the episodes so fast and was so sad until more episodes were available. I knew of both of you on tik tok prior to the podcast, but definitely underestimated your ability to hold my attention. Please never stop making this podcast. Also, Iā€™m going into my 13th year as a music teacher and would love to share the related arts side of teaching if you were interested. Thank you for being you!!!!

    Applicable to Many Soul-Sucking Professions ā¤ļø
    I am not a teacher but have many teacher friends. Frazz and Ms. Redacted are excellent, funny hostesses. I truly appreciate their transparency, humor, and not to mention their awesome taste in guests. Listening to new episodes is a huge highlight of my work week, especially on them lonely two-hour commutes home from said soul-sucking job. Itā€™s truly like catching up with old friends ā€” our professions are like Charlieā€™s Angels. Jokes aside, this pod is a great listen and it is clear that these gals are awesome educators! Keep up the great work šŸ’‹šŸ’•

    The number of times I had to rewind when listening to Ep 67 about the holiday partiesā€¦
  • ElenaDalia
    A much needed sabbatical ā€¦.
    Thank you so much for your podcast. I am currently on a leave (a sabbatical) after 7 years of teachingā€¦.I havenā€™t decided if I want to go back into the classroom or not. I have so many mixed emotions. I resonate with so many things that you guys are talking about. You guys are sooooo funny šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ Thank you for making me laugh. šŸ’œšŸ’œ

    I really enjoy listening to yā€™all. The episodes get better and better each time.
  • Kelsey275
    Best teacher podcast!!
    I am obsessed with binging all of the episodes of this podcast! I absolutely love that they are bringing awareness to critical issues happening currently in the education field. As a current classroom teacher, I love listening to this podcast and hearing stories from educators around the country that are going through similar situations. Thank you Frazz and Ms Redacted for exposing education secrets and inspiring people to stand up for what they believe in.
  • Morah Sarah
    I am addicted to this show!!!
    I have been listening to you guys since the very first episode. The more I listen the better you guys get. Iā€™m really enjoying your content and the journey you guys are on. I have recommended this podcast to anyone that would listen to me. Lol. I love you guys!
  • ROCKSTAR SUPER STAR
    My Online Besties are the GOAT
    they are just the best. the podcast is the best. the honesty of what itā€™s like to be a teacher. no matter your grade level, babies, prek, lower el, middle school, high school, you name it, youā€™ll relate. the submission episodes, hilarious. itā€™s nice to know we arenā€™t alone, and this group does just that. weā€™ve created a whole virtual world of besties and we share the realistic balance of good and bad in education. in life! 5 stars always. Frazz and Redacted fans for life. ILY BESTIE SAY IT BACKKKK
  • Saraht123456
    How is this podcast not more popular?
    I was randomly recommended this podcast by YouTube and I immediately binged all of their episodes. They have such good chemistry, entertaining stories, and are both genuinely funny and smart people. Iā€™m not even a teacher but I love their hearing about their experiences. I think this podcast has the potential to be huge. Keep doing your thing!
  • Marge Schimpson
    Love it!!
    I was hesitant when I first found this podcast because I work at a school, but not as a teacher or admin so I didnā€™t know if I would relate to it, but the hosts are so funny, with such lovely perspectives, I listened to every ep. So good!!!
  • FloridaAmyW.
    Every episode is a 10/10
    Iā€™m a teacher still in the trenches (in Floridaā€¦no lessā€¦and in social studies). I have listened to every episode and wish I could have coffee with you both! You are real, open, honest, and so stinking funny! If you are a teacherā€¦start listening now! (Also the episode about Edgar Allen Poeā€¦.I snort laughed in the car out loud).
  • Alisha17!
    WONDERFUL!!
    This podcast is so relatable! When I was deep in the depths of teacher burnout I listened to every podcast from this show. It helps to know you arenā€™t alone in experiencing the issues that come with being a teacher currently (me holding onto hope that things will change). Something about laughing at some of the ridiculousness that goes on is so relieving. Thank you so much for keeping up with this podcast, I look forward to it each week!

    Great show!
    Hi, Friends! I found your podcast after scrolling through Tik Tok and I am obsessedšŸ˜ I am going back to school (Iā€™m 27 and went and got my cosmetology certificate first) - I will never forgive myself if I donā€™t go back to become a teacher. I love listening to the submissions, stories and sharing of factual information to help me go into this career with an open mind and to walk in having higher expectations. This podcast helped open my eyes to some issues that I wouldnā€™t have otherwise known much about and give insight on teacher shortages etc. Thank you for these episodes- I binged every single one and am all caught up! I canā€™t wait until the following Tuesday- I am loving the new structure of your episodes, too! You both have the best voices for a podcast making it (for me) seem therapeutic. I love listening to you ladies during my car rides and while I am bored home alone- it makes me feel like Iā€™m listening in on my friends conversations! šŸ’• Love you ladies- Jennifer
  • mbparker624
    Love this show!
    If youā€™re a teacher, this podcast is like therapy. It is so good to hear from fellow educators about their experience and how education is changing.
  • U.S. Flop Era
    Grateful
    This is LITERALLY the best podcast. If you put down a 1 star review youā€™re lying.
  • baileyd23
    Love the new format!!
    Was already a big fan of the show but im so excited to learn more about our education system through a research based lensšŸ«¶
  • Minnesota Beach
    Best podcast, begging for a different cover photo
    Love your podcast so much! Your podcast photo has some faint chalk drawings behind Mrs. Redactedā€™s face which look like someone is squatting next to her head.

    Love you guys! So relatable and makes me feel so much better about everything!!!
  • āœŒšŸ¼kel
    Cringe
    I really wanted to like this podcast. Especially since I just quit teaching and went through a really tough time over the past few years. But these girls are so ā€œopen mindedā€ their brains fell out. Woke leftists like yā€™all are the reason the school system is failing. Glad you arenā€™t teaching any more. Wish you could have been more moderate and inclusive then maybe I could have kept listening.
  • AshNicole09
    Love you guys but my ears are sadā€¦
    Love your content! Followed you guys on tiktok through both of your teaching careers and when you left. The last few episode though you guys are so low when youā€™re speaking that I have to turn my volume way up and then BAM an add blows me away because itā€™s so much louder. Hopefully thereā€™s a way you guys can fix that. Wonā€™t stop me from listening but figured yā€™all may want to know!
  • darlarm
    Hysterically Real!
    I retired after 23 years in December. Education is worse than a hot messā€¦ it is a major CF! Good for you both! Love this!!
  • sadele02
    Obsessed!
    Iā€™m actually bummed that I have 0 unplayed episodes. I typically listen when Iā€™m running, so I look like a psycho laughing while Iā€™m sweating. As a former teacher, this podcast makes me feel seen!
  • Links snake
    Canā€™t get enough of this podcast!!!
    I am obsessed with this podcast. I look forward to it every week.
  • Peter G 2.0
    Eye opening and real
    Iā€™m a central office administrator who works in teacher coaching, curriculum, and in hiring. This podcast has forced me to look at my own behavior and itā€™s changed me as an administrator for the better.
  • sciencr girl
    Better than expected
    Didnā€™t think Iā€™d like this podcast but Iā€™m hooked. Donā€™t plan to quit but there is something magical about listening to other peoples problems and realizing Iā€™m not alone.
  • bahiyyihrose
    convinced me to quit
    havenā€™t actually quit yet but god help me i will not be in a classroom by august
  • PrinK1234
    Disrespectful - talking like thisā€¦ i wonder why patents worryā€¦
    Hearing ā€œlikeā€ as every other word was so distracting I couldnā€™t even follow the conversation. Then, making fun of parents who only want the BEST for their children was disrespectful.
  • jennavieve miller
    real honest conversation
    This podcast is so important because in order to fix the problems in the education system we have to have that awareness!! Podcast hosts are amazing and are able to make tough but important conversations more light hearted.
  • Katie B 303
    Free therapy
    This podcast is so good for my mental health. Itā€™s like free therapy!
  • My-thoughts-as-stars
    Still a school based therapist and still love this pod!
    In a wild turn of events, school system nonsense still doesnā€™t hold a candle to health insurance nonsense, so Iā€™ll be continuing to work in schools. Despite that- I love the relatability of this pod. And quite honestly the vibe of Frazz and Redacted inviting folks to do the ā€œkinda creepyā€ advertising survey was perhaps the funniest moment and the first time Iā€™ve considered doing one of those. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ love it ladies!
  • banderamama
    Wonderful podcast
    Two of my favorite people from the clock app together! Their banter cracks me up and I want to be bffs with both of them.
  • ebayleya
    This podcast is so interesting
    I really love this podcast! It is really interesting and frankly upsetting to hear what happens to teachers. But the hosts are very funny and do really good interviews!
  • risochhuiaehvrusehrvea
    Favorite podcast
    I love this podcast so much! You are so real about both the struggles within teaching but also the love so many of us still have for it. Thank you for keeping it real and letting us hang out with you on the way to work!
  • kautenpartyoffour
    Easily My Favorite New Podcast
    I love this podcast! Listening to it has been a great way to unwind after a long day in the classroom. However, I am selfishly hoping that some of my favorite TikTok teachers and former teachers make an appearance (whennerdsteach, honestteachervibes, ms.m, rrogersworld, etc), but have liked the guests theyā€™ve talked to so far.
  • mary_liz10
    Love, love them
    I follow frazz on the gram and have always loved her honesty and personality so she brought me here. Iā€™m four episodes in now and so mad Iā€™ve waited this long to start listening to them. I currently teach and they bring such comfort to me honestly. They talk about the real issues but still hold hope for a better future. I love how they just let their personalities shine through in each episode. Just listen, do it.
  • sl214257
    Love it!
    This is such a bright spot in my week. It is so comforting to know that their is life and jot after teaching.
  • Rachelc72
    5/5
    Very thoughtful and real content that helps me feel validated! My only critique is about the sound quality, but that is something that can be hard to control. Keep being awesome!
  • cecilianicole97
    Feels like hanging out with friends
    This podcast is wonderful!
  • Green gator
    Love you all, but . . .
    I just finished Episode 12. I want to preface this by saying that I have immense respect for all of you. I have watched your journeys and been inspired. I am a veteran teacher, though, and I felt like there were a few comments about veterans or ā€œboomersā€ not embracing tech or SEL. This felt a little exclusionary to me, and I want ALL educators to be united in our efforts. I agree there are some who resist, but many of us are willing to grow and change to better serve our students. Just like young new teachers should be valued and heard, veterans deserve that same opportunity. Letā€™s not be divisive with each other. Thatā€™s part of why education is a mess. We have been put in competition with each other while those in charge laugh. Again, I respect you all and appreciate your voices. I am leaving a five star rating because I value your passion and believe you are changing the educational landscape for the better.
  • AbbyTeaches4th
    Love it, so helpful!!!
    As a teacher considering leaving the career, I love the nuanced conversation discussing such a difficult decision. It feels like they see all sides of the conversation and are supportive and funny while giving some seriously good advice. Canā€™t wait for more! Would love to hear thoughts on teachers leaving the profession due to shootings and school violence.
  • Ms. Ocada
    Listen Every Week
    I look forward to listening to the new weekly episode. I enjoy the discussions about how the education system can be fixed from the perspective of the newest guest. I love to hear from teachers that have quit but also those that are still teachers now. Keep up the amazing content! ā¤ļø
