The series follows a no-nonsense junior high woodshop teacher Mr. Birchum as he attempts to navigate a world he doesn’t understand or approve of. He’s befuddled by his gaming streamer son, annoyed at his selfie-taking students and is constantly at war with the school district’s “J.E.D.I.” (Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion officer) whose feelings-over-facts style of administration is everything that’s wrong with education today.
