All aboard the Hot Mess Teacher Express! Join us as we share our hilarious and unfiltered opinions on themed classrooms. While Vinny loves to go overboard with his classroom theme, Jess can't stand it when teachers turn their classrooms into a bulletin board circus. Things get even more outrageous as Vinny confesses his love for crop-dusting students and shares his disdain for "peacock" teachers in this week's edition of Hot or Not. Meanwhile, Jess gets real about her anxiety over in-person meetings and Vinny rants about the cringe-worthy term "kiddos" as we discover what really Grinds our Gears. Then in American vs. British, we dive deep into the world of college funding and uncover some shocking truths. To close it up, we give some much-deserved love to school custodians, who often go unappreciated for their hard work in Underdogs in Education.  So punch your ticket and get ready for some gut-busting laughs and unfiltered opinions in this episode of Hot Mess Teacher Express!
