The Education Talk Show with Jeremy Brooks

Hosted by Jeremy Brooks

An educator and former broadcaster interviews teachers, authors, and innovators on topics from classroom tactics to national education policy.

The brief

A weekly video podcast that acts as an intellectual arena for educational topics. The show combines deep-dive interviews with guests like teachers and authors with a regular panel discussion format called 'Weekly Recess' that tackles current events in education. It covers both the granular details of classroom life, like PE strategies, and broad, systemic issues like teacher burnout and public policy.

The show's blend of formats—long-form interviews and a recurring panel of contributors—sets it apart. The host's verified background as a teacher and administrator lends credibility, and the guest list uniquely ranges from on-the-ground PE teachers to high-profile figures like the voice actor from 'Toy Story'.
