Ep. 124: The Power of a Hush

Essential Question: How much hushing could a husher hush if a husher could hush fools?

Today we bring back some of our favorite segments for a few laughs. We’re joined by Hope Bixby, “the New Hope” who is currently a Social Studies teacher at Lincoln High School and an all around badass. Bixby pitches the idea of a weekly “hush” here we get to highlight  the people, topics, concepts, situations, etc who have received our “hush” of the week.
