Episode 46: Stunt Brothers Can't Count!
Dec 15, 2025What starts as Episode 46 quickly turns into a milestone celebration when Martin and Roy realize they’ve actually hit Episode 50. This discovery sends them down an entertaining rabbit hole exploring all things fifty from fun facts to unexpected reflections. Along the way, they share thoughtful comments from listeners, look back on how the show has evolved, and reminisce about the journey that brought them here. With only 5% of podcasts ever reaching episode 50, this installment becomes both a celebration and a thank-you to everyone who’s been along for the ride.

Dec 01, 2025In this episode, Martin kicks things off with an enthusiastic ramble about the collection of tapes, CDs, and VHS treasures that he’s been digitizing at the library. But as he drones on, Roy, bored out of his mind, starts absent-mindedly clicking a pen. The clicking sound derails Martin’s train of thought and launches our hosts into a lively conversation about distractions in the classroom: buzzing insects, drifting snowflakes, and the many “Weapons of Mass Distraction” students craft from everyday school supplies. From there, our duo takes a nostalgic detour through childhood fads. The goofy trends that somehow always f...
Duration: 00:44:00Episode 43. Feel The Power: Find The Passion
Nov 24, 2025The 13th episode of Season 2 finds The Stunt Brothers chatting about what it means to find passion in this busy life. Finding one's passion, whether it be music, art, writing, gardening, or whatever, is a journey one should explore throughout life. Roy and Martin believe everyone has a creative genius within them. We all just need to find the time to discover and unleash our creative potential. Wellness is dependent on it and that is why this episode leads to a bold mix of mental health, wellness, weight training, and music. And that leads to today's guest, Ev Natacha, a...
Duration: 00:53:53Episode 42. Too Sick To Teach: The Hidden Challenges Of Taking A Day Off
Nov 17, 2025Plagued by technical difficulties, this episode almost doesn’t happen. Martin and Roy think they are going to have to cancel this episode until they receive a last minute IT rescue from Martin’s son. They do get rolling but Martin is feeling under the weather and thinks he may have to cancel their upcoming bike ride. Roy is having none of this, asking Martin to find a suitable replacement while providing a detailed plan for the day. And make sure the bike is tuned up! Martin is flabbergasted, finding Roy's request completely unreasonable. All these shenanigans make the Stun...
Duration: 00:37:37Episode 41. Duct Tape Education: The Myth That Teachers Should Fix Everything
Nov 10, 2025Martin and Roy find themselves discussing the ingenious and countless uses of duct tape as a quick fix to help extend the life of just about anything. Their conversation soon turns from the literal to the metaphorical, as they draw a parallel between duct tape repairs and the growing pressures placed on schools and teachers. Martin and Roy explore how teachers have become the “duct tape” that holds things together, asked to patch complex issues that need far more than a temporary fix.

Nov 03, 2025Martin and Roy are fired up about the World Series and discuss the little details that make baseball such a fascinating game. For Martin, the series is a nice distraction from thinking about how the Alberta government ordered teachers back to work using the Notwithstanding Clause. The guys can’t help but draw some parallels between baseball and class size: team sizes are carefully set to maximize performance and success; class sizes in education should be considered in the same way. Maybe size doesn't matter in other places but it absolutely matters when it comes to class size.

Drop in mid conversation as The Stunt Brothers get Episode 37 of After The Bell: Teaching Tips With A Twist rolling with the change of seasons. But before we get too deep into stormy weather (That was last week!), Roy and Martin veer away from this autumnal place and head back to summer with another one of their Manning Park Sessions.

Sep 22, 2025On a deceptively hot September day Martin reflects on the loss of Robert Redford and references a famous Star Wars line which brings Roy and Martin to draw parallels between teachers and actors as they stumble on to the widely discussed topic of imposter syndrome from which neither thespians nor educators are exempt. But much like a scene or a lesson plan, there are always ways to work through it.

Episode 33: What's In A Name?
Sep 15, 2025Imagine a teacher long, long ago, attempting to properly pronounce little Martin Stuible's last name on that first day of the new school year. Or Roy Junior watching his brother being sent to the office for the third time in a week over the simple switching of two letters. Or a teacher trying to name their own child with a name that does not trigger PTSD. These are the challenges of learning the names of the students in your class at this time of year.

Sep 01, 2025It's Labour Day, so let's slow things down and take a trip to Vancouver's Pacific National Exhibition, a fair where you can win a prize home, eat mini-doughnuts, and ride an old wooden rollercoaster. The PNE is a 115 year old staple in the lives of Vancouverites, and a reminder to parents, children, and teachers that school starts tomorrow.

May 26, 2025Despite warming days and more time in the garden, somehow Martin gets on his soapbox again and starts ranting about recycling.

To take this theme further, they visit Clint Johnston, President of the BC Teachers' Association. The BCTF represents over 51 000 public school teachers in the province of British Columbia, Canada. Clint is finishing off his term as president before moving to Ottawa in July to start a new chapter as President of the Canadian Teachers' Federation. The...

Apr 14, 2025Roy and Martin try something different by recording an episode in Martin’s kitchen on a sunny but crisp North Vancouver morning. Snowball fights in Texas, Martin’s crow friends and Roy’s rockstar-like return to the school from which he retired are all fodder for this episode. Martin drops a line from Severance which leaves them wondering if teachers can really have severance from their work life, without the operation. When it comes to creativity and inspiration, maybe the best one can strive for is pseudo-severance.
