All right. For months now, we dealt with the students vent line.
Co-host 1
Yeah, the students could call up and complain about their parents, their homework, their teachers, whatever it was about the school year. But then we decided we wanted to do this for the teachers.
Host
And this thing filled up quicker than it did with the students. Teachers were ready to go off because like you said, I think there's more to go off on.
Co-host 1
Yeah, yeah, the students and the parents and the administration, everything they've got to
Host
deal with salaries, they got to deal with promotions, stuff like that. So 404-255-3535 is the teacher vent line. And we do run it through the voice disguiser so the voices that you hear now aren't recognizable.
Teacher Caller 1
I want to vent and tell those stupid little kids to just shut the up and learn what they need to learn. It's not that difficult. If I tell you to flip a fraction and multiply it, just do it. It's not that stupid. I get paid as it is now. On top of that, I have to do it. Little kids who can't wipe themselves, who don't know how to multiply, which is something you should have learned in the third grade for having sex and you can't even add half the time. It's getting on my effing nerve.
Host
I said do it with us. Do it with us. Get it out and get it out. That's right, and get it out. If I'm a parent listening, that Is one of your teachers your kid's teachers? See, that woman is going into class today. She is teaching with that anger.
Co-host 1
But if you're the child who should have learned how to divide and multiply in the third grade and they're not doing it two or three years later,
Host
you should have got that done already.
Co-host 2
Yes, that's right.
Teacher Caller 1
I am sick of a parent expecting us to retest students when they fail because they didn't study at home or if they don't read their material that they need to for the testing and they're like, oh, I'm sorry, can we just retest my child? That is my biggest problem. Thank you.
Host
She does have that very teacher thing at the very end. But I'm gonna be polite about it, right?
Teacher Caller 1
Yes.
Host
Thank you, thank you.
Co-host 1
Thank you for allowing me to yell about that.
Teacher Caller 1
I just don't like the fact how after a long day of being with the kids who, yes, I do love and I do love working with them, if something ever happens, the parents wonder, well, I wonder why that happened. Well, maybe if you actually taught your child right on what to do and what not to do, maybe then we wouldn't have to worry about it in the classroom. From hitting to trying to hurt somebody. Oh, I wonder why they hurt somebody today. Oh, well, maybe you should check your before you leave your house.
Co-host 1
Oh, who saw you reckless.
Co-host 2
I don't understand why parents not teach their kids that the kids are not doing their homework at home. Parents deep together. Together. That's why this country will never succeed in education. Because the parents are not taking care of their kids at home. They send their kids to school at the babysitting service. These parents in this city of area of Atlanta are just pathetic. Nothing but homegrown and redneck hicks. We live off the government and the kids will never succeed. This is why teaching is a very bad profession. The parents don't care for their kids and the kids get left behind.
Host
It's more like a presidential speech or
Co-host 1
anything else his State of the Unique Leprechaun or the Whisker of Oz Munchkin.
Host
But I think it's interesting that three of the four calls that have come in already have been complaining about the parents and not taking responsibility for the kids.
Teacher Caller 1
Well, I'm mad because Benny Perdue keeps furloughing us. I don't make near the money that man makes. Why don't you take a pay cut? Why don't you take six days worth of furlough and then come and talk to me? When was the last time you put your butt in a classroom. We don't get paid near enough to do the jobs that we do. Oh my God. If the boys could actually find a belt. If parents could maybe discover what a belt is and realize that your little thick, skinny son is not a size 48 waist. I have seen enough underwear to last the rest of my life. I never in a million years imagined that I would ever see this much underwear.
Co-host 2
It's an end of message.
Teacher Caller 1
Lucky. I love my students and don't have issue with them 99% of the time. But my co workers drive me up the wall. And the lack of respect amongst co workers and things like that just is ridiculous. It wouldn't be acceptable in any other workplace. And that is what makes me most frustrated about my job. And I'm sure there's other teachers that feel the same way. Thanks.

This episode focuses on an anonymous “Teacher Vent Line,” allowing teachers to candidly air their grievances and frustrations about their profession, students, parents, and educational administration. The hosts provide commentary, humor, and solidarity, creating a safe space for educators to be honest about the challenges they face.
The Bert Show opens their “Vault” for teachers who, for months, have listened to students calling in to vent about school. In this episode, it’s the teachers’ turn. Utilizing a voice disguiser, teachers anonymously share unfiltered complaints about everything from student behavior to lack of parental support and frustrations with fellow educators and pay. The hosts listen in, react, and amplify the conversation about the real hurdles faced in education today.
For listeners:
Even if you haven’t been in a classroom recently, this episode delivers an honest and entertaining look at what educators face every day. Whether you're a parent, student, or teacher, the “Teacher Vent Line” pulls back the curtain on the real, raw challenges of the profession—with empathy, laughs, and a few memorable rants.
