I agree! They should have split up the episodes because they focused on talking about high school way too much

good influences: “cheat, who cares? school doesn’t matter” we love an honest queen

i just want to say this has been my favorite episode so far, i loved the layout of this episode so much better than the other ones where they are more advice driven and this episode felt more like friends hanging out instead, love this format way more. this was great thank y’all!

Agreed!

MATT PLEASE come forward about that pervert teacher!!!! If he’s still teaching kids needs to be protected from him! You’ll be backed up, you’re clearly not the only one who has been affected by him

I died when you mentioned the PHANTOM POOPER. My high school had one too and we called them that!!! 🤣

I went to hs w Matt so listening to him speak on stuff is funny. My brother was a wrangler and actor with him! I forgot so much already so this brought back a lot of memories!

interestingly enough, i grew up in a town where just over half the population is of hispanic or latin descent. A little more than a quarter of the population speaks spanish. and yet, i’ve NEVER had a Spanish teacher that wasn’t some crazy old white lady who did a year abroad in spain. mind blowing how correct he was

So, don’t get my wrong, I LOVE Unfiltered… Zane, Heath, Matt and Mariah have a great true friend dynamic, but I can’t help but notice sometimes they kinda bully matt a little bit, that he talks too much about Texas, that he just plain talks too much, he’s never with them on trips or doesn’t really seem to hang out with them outside of the podcast. But THESE FOUR… I love these 4… they treat matt so differently its wild to watch unfiltered then come on over here and see the difference

"definitely not a clock" -Erin I couldn't remember where Erin was from in MA but as soon as she said that I knew. Cheering against them in HS was always so funny. "B-E-A-T Beat the Clockers"

I’m so excited I love hearing Matt talk about going to UT and being from Texas

oh yeah matt, we definitely had multiple teachers with the toilet seat hall pass at my schools growing up!! it definitely deterred people from wandering the halls during class. by my senior year of hs, we had to carry around our school-provided agenda/planner with us, and the teachers had to sign it when you left and came back with times. you let me know where a good, hygienic spot to put a planner is when you’re in a stall in the bathroom… so nasty.

I love this podcast so much! Seeing Matt on here vs on unfiltered is such a difference. Matt is much more open and comfortable on here. They’re all so respectful and nice to each other and this is why they’re able to make such good content on one specific topic. I love them truly and can’t wait to see them grow ❤️

Today I randomly rewatched the unfiltered episode where matt told the Spanish teacher story years ago and now he told it in this podcast also released today 😆

My high-school had 1,000 kids per grade! I had 2 friends move away and it wsd devastating. In 6th grade, Joe Troman from Fall Out Boy moved to my town and he sat in front of me in class. He was so nice. I have such a vivid memory of his first day and now he is famous lol.

My school called that ISS, In school suspension

Matt talking about Enterprise City took me back! I live in the same area as him and I got to take that same field trip with my grade back in the day. Made me smile

That’s how I feel but they’re dynamic throws me off it’s not two on two not that I want it that way but it’s like all three competing to tell their stories

OMG Matt! We literally had the exact same thing as Enterprise City. Ours was called "BizTown". Weeks before, we did the mayoral elections. They also taught us how to write checks so we could use our fake paychecks. I was the CEO of the town newspaper haha. This brought back so many memories!

I went to school so long ago, we wore skirts (NO pants ever) The year after I graduated it changed. We had classes on how to buy a house (from start to move in) taxes, cooking, sewing, wood shop, auto work shop & more. I also had a teacher that only talked about his x-wife & kids, wouldn't teach history, we were all worried but no one listened & 1 day he didn't show, we found out he killed himself.Grosse Pointe South, Mich.('60's)

This entire podcast (the set, you guys, the vibe) just feels like Christmas! The best way to describe it!

carly, I went to millard west! it's so crazy to hear you talk about zorinsky and safety patrol and the mustangs 🥺

my childhood bestfriend is going to UT this coming yr , i love watching matt talk about Texas bc im so proud to be from here too

Mike casually talking about his college producing athletes and later saying he went to Rutgers made so much sense 🤣 power 5 school of course they got athletes but if you aren’t in to sports you’d probably look right over that

I went to high school in North Carolina and they only taught abstinence education - I vividly remember them using a metaphor for our virginity being a brand new car and that we essentially would be tainted or used if we let someone “use” our “new car.”

matt with the wayside school references today!!

i'm loving this format of having a specific subject each podcast!! so fun

You guys should do an episode about locations you grew up in (Midwest/south/east coast) and things that you did, ate or just grew up doing because of the location!

I live in a small town in Texas and our school system was like how Matt described it. I got all day in school suspension once and honestly I kinda liked it ? I loved being left alone to get my work done. I got it because I skipped Pre Calculus with my boyfriend. It was Senior year. I had never skipped… and of course we got caught. Got a talking to from the principal who had no idea who I was lol she said it’s not worth it for a boy. 7 years later, we own a home together and have the cutest little 1 year old. So I guess I won 😂

I love every episodes of the good influences podcast. All of you are so fun to watch ❤️ Much Love ❤️

I grew up in a little town in the mountains of Southern Tier New York and my school was even smaller than Erin's. Our school was actually Kindergarten thru 12th and we had about 600 kids in the whole school. There were 42 kids in my graduating class. I went to college at a small, state university in Virginia called Christopher Newport University. The entire student body is under 5,000 people.

My high school would have been so canceled these days. Our mascot was Braves, had a white dude in a head dress running around and had a cheer that said “scalp ‘em”. Early 2000s was different times…

my big 2000-student HS had a race war, riots with cops macing students, walk-outs, and food fights lmao

erin’s constant ability to perfectly reference a movie which relates to the subject that’s being discussed is so funny and relatable LMFAO🦄💖

As someone who also did speech & debate in texas AND went to the university of Texas at the same time as Matt, I felt like I was watching a recap of some of my own experiences! I totally relate to feeling silly talking about all of the clout behind UT as well 😅

I'm glad Erin gives it to Matt. Is that cocky? Yes, kind of! We're not all obsessed with Texas. Quite the opposite actually.

love the podcast so much!! i am wondering how you all are wearing such thick layers in this heat 😭😭😭

I didn’t like school but listening to your experience was so fun to listen to. There was some weird things happening in my High School 😨 I love watching your podcast. Much Love ❤️

I grew up in Peru but there was a Summer (for us summers are from December to March) where I went to Miami to stay with my uncles and we were enrolled in Miami Beach Senior High School. It was a wild experience talking English and in a new school (USA schools and peruvian schools are SOOOOOO different). This was in 1997-1998 so pre-Facebook. I remember I made good friends with a girl and I lost her name and address so... well if you went to this High School and were friends with a peruvian that stayed for a couple of months... HI!!!! :)

Erin...I have you beat! My high school was "The Beavers"! Lol

New favorite podcast!! Hello friends

my freshman year of HS had late arrival Wednesdays like 1030am, early release Fridays like noon, and had like 7 classes total but 6 per day, they'd rotate so each class 4 days a week

I live in Indianapolis (hello Mrs King!) My high school graduating class had like 75 people and my grade school class was closer to 25-30. And my grade school you went there from preschool through 8th grade. It’s so crazy to hear stories from big schools.

one of my teachers in high school told us to hold up 2 fingers if we had to go to the bathroom and she would just nod at us and we could leave to go. that was THE best teacher and system.

Here in Illinois (Late 80's and early 90's) we had Saturday detention!

I’m LOVING this podcast! 🤗 and OMG Erin!! You think your mascot was bad?? I’m from California, our mascot was a “horned toad”! So all our opponent schools in sports called us “horny” toads. Very fun lol.

They should have used their high school yearbook photos for the thumbnail 😆

Omg that’s funny they mentioned the Ready Set. They performed at my high school hahah

coming from a small town, my highschool was just like Erin's lol. My class is like maybe 125 people so i can attest to everyone dating each other ahahah

I live in Omaha, went to University of Nebraska, so hearing all the sports people who went to Carly’s schools and no one knowing them hits home. Everything is sports related here. They are our celebrities lol. I’d like to add also that Adam Devine is from here and Ashley Graham too, although I know these lists were specific to alumni of the schools. 😂😂

Loved this episode

Even tho none of these stories happened to me, it felt so relatable in every way

I went to a small high school in Arkansas (98 in my class, 500 from 8-12 grade) and there were so many scandals. One kid (the superintendents son) got in trouble for selling weed through the couches in the common areas. Then he was caught smoking weed in the bathroom. Needless to say he was suspended

My high school was literally across the street from the “bad kid” school and we would always try not to talk to them as we were going home. So weird as a teacher now I use my teachers as examples of what to do and what not to do.

A phantom pooper? too funny 😂

my junior year in history my group that i sat with we literally had a code for each letter for multiple choice a- sniffle b-pen click c-tap on desk d-2 taps on desk and the group across for us caught on and we all started doing it so we could pass and if we passed we got an extra 10 of lunch and our class was right before so we all just left early

So crazy I went to the same high school as Carly and lived down the street from her!

I went to a 2 room school! There was 8 in my graduating class lol. It was great.

Omg in San Diego on 4th of July the firefighters were literally getting lap dances at the station while sitting on the trucks 🙄

I'm in south Louisiana. We have a school like that in my town. We call it taps.

We had an "alternate education program" in our high school district, known to us kids as "Little Alcatraz." This was for the real ass-hats who made school a living hell for everybody else. Supposedly, you got picked up from your house at 6:30 a.m., stayed in one room doing the various subject for eight hours (minus one-half-hour for lunch, eaten in that same room) and they took you back home at 5:00 p.m. (No, not speaking from experience -- I went through four years of HS and never got detention.)

Texas schools described by Matt sound a lot like Georgia schools 😂😂

My district had a school for the bad kids. It is now closed. Fun fact - That school is now the school in Stranger Things!

I worked at a bowling alley that served food and on slow days I'd have to scrape gum from tables 🙃 😭

Omg I had Ms. Beach in 7th grade! I never went to the bathroom during her class. I don’t miss Blalack😂

matt’s teacher story reminds me so much of my history teacher

@44:51: sometimes I'd write math or chemistry equations on my calculator inner part of the lid and on the pink rectangle erasers lol. Then in college I didn't do any type of cheating and I would get mad when I saw other students cheating on tests, especially if they ended up with a better score than me. -_-

I grew up in a small town in texas and if the walls of my high school could talk it would be insane. so many scandals
