12 Must-Listen To Teacher Podcasts

Inside: My favorite, must-listen teacher podcasts & episodes for you to check out!

The other day my daughter was walking around the house with her Minnie Mouse cell phone and a pair of headphones on her head saying, “shhh…. I’m listening to my podcasts.” 

She’s apparently picked something up from me…. I love podcasts and listen to them frequently! I especially love listening to podcasts for teachers.

Today I am sharing my favorite teacher podcasts! These podcasts will help you will all things teaching- from pedagogy to curriculum, mental health to a good laugh, you must listen to these podcasts for teachers.

Wife Teacher Mommy: The Podcast

Okay, okay, this is my teacher podcast but I do have to say, it is my favorite! I have so much fun talking to all of my guests and sharing my life experiences with fellow teachers and homeschool parents. 

Being an educator is beyond a full-time job. Whether you’re a teacher or a homeschool parent, the everyday to-do list is endless. Between lesson planning, grading, meetings, and actually teaching, it probably feels impossible to show up for your students without dropping the ball in other areas of your life.

Wife Teacher Mommy: The Podcast is the show that will bring you the teacher tips, practical strategies, and inspiration that you need to relieve the stress and overwhelm of your day-to-day. 

Listen to hear me and my guests cheer you on and help you thrive as a wife, teacher, and mommy. Because with a little support and community, you can do it all! 

Plus, did you know that Wife Teacher Mommy Club members get BONUS podcasts for teachers? Be sure to join the waitlist to join the club to get ALL the content.

Funny Teacher Podcasts

The Social Studies Podcast

From Apple Podcasts: “Comedians Joe Dombrowski (former elementary school teacher) and co-host Gaspare Randazzo (current high school teacher) discuss the chaotic life in and out of the classroom, the nuances of parenting toddlers, and pretty much all things millennial. Each episode is different. Sometimes they’ll bring you a Hollywood guest such as comedian Anjelah Reyes-Johnson or renowned School Psychologist Dr.Jody Carrington. Sometimes they might read emails from fans, riffing on their unbelievable, real-life, classroom stories. Other times they might argue over the most realistic conspiracy theories. You never know!”

Gaspare was our keynote speaker at our 2022 Winter Educate & Rejuvenate. I got the chance to interview him on Wife Teacher Mommy: The Podcast. We talked about everything from balancing teaching, stand-up comedy, and dad life, to birth stories, teacher maternity and paternity leave, teacher influencers, and how to pronounce Mario, in this hilarious interview that you do not want to miss!

  1. The Wife teacher mommy podcast has such great and relevant topics. If I could make a suggestion, though, slow down. You talk so fast that it is difficult to catch what you’re saying. Maybe it’s just me – I love my teacher podcasts, and I would like to enjoy this one!

    1. Patricia, Thank you so much for your review and taking the time to listen to our podcast💗 I have shared your feedback with Kelsey. In the meantime, you can always slow down the podcast under settings and adjust the speed to .75x so you don’t miss anything! Thanks again! Rachael
