Sleep-Deprived, Caffeinated, and Marking in the Pub

In this episode of Say You Look Tired, Martin and Dan dive deep into the sleep-deprived, caffeine-fuelled world of teaching - from dragging marking to the pub to running on Red Bull and resentment.   They unpack why teachers can’t switch off, how poor sleep wrecks your mood (and your classroom management), and what lockdown forced them to face about their own wellbeing. Dan shares how staying up till 1am “for me time” nearly broke him, and Martin reveals the bedtime routine that Seamus the dog now enforces.   Expect real talk, belly laughs, and some questionable sleep stats - plus the hard truth: you deserve more than just getting by.
