Morning Mayhem

S5.E67: Teacher Express, Uber for Teachers, PJ Day Friday, Hottest Year, Ancient Egyptian Cruise Line, Football’s Season

Today's Elevator Pitch: Teacher Bus--Uber for Teachers. It could be the next big thing. Everyone should wear PJs for PJ Day on Friday! All proceeds to benefit Connecticut's Childrens Hospital. Egyptians knew how to relax and enjoy the summers. And one of Woodland's greatest football teams ended their season with an incredible run to the state semis.

S5.E66: Weatherproofing for the Cold, Dr. Mulligan’s Site Visit, Christmas Tree Experience, Woodland State Semis

It's cold, but it's going to get colder. Teachers are getting more inspired in their outdoor accoutrement for the Class S State Finals tonight. The Griswolds weren't the only family with a Christmas Tree adventure. Dr. Dana Mulligan is visited by the CASciac Assistant Principal of the Year Selection Committee today. A big day indeed for Woodland. TONIGHT- Woodland takes on Sheehan for a berth into the State Finals.

S5.E65: Crazy week, Mustard, EuroVision, UAPs, and CMEA Finalists

First there was a half day with professional development--then the weather happened. It became a full day with a delayed opening. So, not really crazy, but we don't have much in the way of excitement so this was the most we had this week. If you ever wondered what came first, chicken or the egg, it was actually mustard, way before ketchup (or catsup). CMEA Finalists who will be performing in the Southern Region Ensemble and representing Woodland's Fine Arts Programs stopped by, but here is the full list: Concert Band: 1. Blake Polaski- Trombone 2 (4th Year in a row!) 2. Persy Dravis- Tuba (1st Year!) 3. Arina Rigali- Mallets (2nd Year in a row!) Treble Choir: 1. Casey Mulvihill- Soprano (2nd Year in a row!) Mixed Choir: 1. Lucas-John Minicucci - Tenor (1st Year!)

S5.E64: New England cold, Shout Out Bus Drivers,, Humpback Whales, and MOMMA MANNING

I'm not cold; you are! Or are you? The debate over what is "New England" cold was, well, up for debate. Either way, New England cold is cold. And for that reason, bus drivers deserve a lot of credit for getting those busses running early and warming up the cabs for all our students. The humpback whale population has more than quadrupled over the past decade and we are here for it. And MOMMA MANNING joins the show for an update on the football team's Class S quarterfinal win over Bloomfield.

S5.E63: Driving Conditions, Snow Tires, Chernobyl Fungi, AI ads, NVL CHAMPS Football Team.

Everything got canceled with cautions for black ice, but that doesn't deter Amato--he revels in inclement weather driving. But no one has snow tires any more. Chernobyl Fungi is not a 90s alt-punk band. You'll have to listen to understand how that helps NASA [https://www.sciencealert.com/chernobyl-fungus-appears-to-have-evolved-an-incredible-ability]. And the NVL CHAMPS, Woodland Football team shows up: Mark Poulin, Nico Scampolino, and Erik Pulkinnen
