Ep 42: The Struggles Of Staying Fit And Healthy In Teaching: A Chat With Martin Malone (@TheTeachersPT)
Noticed your health, fitness and wellbeing declining over the years as a teacher? Us too!
This week we chat with Martin Malone, an ex-teacher who is now best known as 'The Teachers PT' and pick his brains on how to battle against the relentless pressure of the job, and ultimately stay fit and healthy.
If you find this as tricky as we do (now more than ever with new babies to keep us busy!), then why not write in with your experiences? Perhaps you could motivate us to get fit! (we doubt it).

Ep 40: The Drastically Changing Teaching Profession: Chronic Underfunding, Enormous Workload & Dwindling Respect
We are BACK in the same room with a full, normal, feature-length episode.
Hayden debriefs on life as a new dad with his 2-week old, Dylan laughs at Hayden going through exactly what he did last month and EVENTUALLY we talk about the drastic changes in the teaching profession.
We talk about the macro changes over decades, which are mostly for the better. We then talk about how drastically the career has changed since we started teaching about 8 years ago... This time, not mostly for the better!
Hope you enjoy, and if you do please consider leaving us a rating and sharing the podcast far and wide.
