Mr. Clarke After Dark
Welcome to the “Mr. Clarke After Dark” podcast with host Lucas Clarke, an educator determined to move away from recycled professional development and engage in more nuanced, personable, and relevant conversations for learning.
Each week, Mr. Clarke unpacks the inner workings of the classroom and learns out loud with educators, politicians, comedians, and other field experts of all shapes, sizes, and burnout levels. Whether they have been in the trenches of their profession for five months or fifty years, we are here to share everything from classroom hacks, our worst mistakes, and the occasional profound musing (from the guests). From conversations about race with Daryl Davis, education reform with Jennifer Gonzalez, global educational development with professors from the World Bank, to stories about students farting in class, there will always be something you can take away from the show, for better or worse.
So, come on over and join the dark side ... unless you’re scared.

#086 - Leslie Rob | Christian Comedy & Field Trip Fails
In this conversation, Leslie Robb, a teacher and comedian, shares her unique experiences in education and comedy. Leslie and I discuss her unexpected journey as a bus driver to her rewarding moments on stage with the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour, well-meaning but somewhat unaware middle aged Christian ladies, Christian comedy, her overall wild resume including time teaching adults, the simplest and most effective classroom management techniques, educational ‘best practices,’ an embarrassing trip to Washington D.C., and, much more. Thank you for tuning in and hope you enjoy the show!
