Episode 142: Why Are We Building a Bike Shed? with Mr. Rupp

In Episode 142, Kasey and Brian sit down with Mr. Rupp, a high school English teacher and creator known for his sharp, funny, and thoughtful videos about rhetoric, fallacies, and how we think.

The conversation moves from logical fallacies to grading, leadership, parent communication, and the complicated realities of teaching. Mr. Rupp breaks down ideas like the bike shed effect, the Nirvana fallacy, and hostile attribution bias, while pushing educators to think more clearly about the systems, assumptions, and reactions that shape our schools.

This episode is funny, challenging, and deeply practical. It is a reminder that education does not need to be perfect to be good, but it does require us to keep thinking.
