Crying in My Car: A Podcast for Teachers

Apparently our Teachers are Retiring Sooner than We Thought!

19 Aug 2025

Description

 What happens when veteran teachers refuse a buyout? And why are wealthy kids less glued to screens than their peers? Welcome back to Crying In My Car, the podcast for teachers! This week Devin Siebold and James Yon discover the secret to teacher burn out. Then they address the growing push to force older teachers into early retirement, even when they don't want to leave. They also uncover an eye-opening trend about cell phone use among students and what it really says about parenting across income levels. First, Devin shares why teacher conventions might be the one thing that can reignite a burned-out educator's passion. From hands-on tech demos to powerful keynote speakers, these gatherings are more than just a break from the classroom, they're a chance to recharge and reconnect with the profession. Things take a dark turn where, in Maine, some schools are offering early retirement buyouts which seem optional, but if teachers don't take the deal, they simply cut these long-time educators. Is this cost-saving strategy destroying the very experience schools need most? Tune in to hear our take on this injustice.  Finally, we head back into the wild world of Reddit, and read jaw-dropping stories about parents who apparently think homework is optional, teachers being threatened, and why rich kids seem to use their phones less than everyone else. You won't believe the crazy stories were finding this week!    Listen to this podcast: https://bit.ly/ListenCIMC    Support the Podcast on Patreon: patreon.com/cryinginmycar    Follow Devin at http://DevinComedy.com  https://www.tiktok.com/@devincomedy?lang=en  https://www.instagram.com/devinsiebold/  https://x.com/teachercomic    Follow James at http://JamesYon.com  https://www.tiktok.com/@jamesyoncomedy  https://www.instagram.com/jamesyoncomedian/    So get your walkers and life alerts ready, because it looks like we all have no choice but to retire on this week's episode of Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers.  _________________________________________________________ Crying In My Car Podcast with Devin Siebold & James Yon
