Podcast Submissions

Before you submit

We welcome funny classroom stories, honest perspectives, questions, and practical ideas that other educators can learn from.

Format and length

• Upload a PDF using a readable 12-point font. Keep your submission under 1,500 words—approximately a 10-minute read.
• Share your role in education so listeners have context.
• Submit your own original writing. Only include material you have permission to share.

Protect identities and sensitive information

• Use aliases for every person, school, district, and location mentioned. You may use your own name if you choose to be credited.
• Remove details that could reveal someone’s identity, even without their name. This includes exact dates, job titles, grade levels, and unusual circumstances when the combination could identify someone.
• Do not include student records, screenshots, private messages, contact information, or confidential information about students, families, coworkers, or your workplace.
• Keep stories and criticism focused on experiences, practices, and ideas. We won’t feature personal attacks, discriminatory content, or accusations against identifiable people or organizations.

What happens next

We review submissions for relevance, clarity, and usefulness to our audience. Submitting does not guarantee a feature. Selected submissions may be shortened, edited, or paraphrased while preserving their intended meaning.

Your email address is for communication about your submission and will not be shared on the podcast. If you choose to remain anonymous, we will withhold your name, but details in your story could still make you recognizable. Please review your submission carefully.
