Then Brittany explains how she's navigating a completely new life - running a business, traveling, doing long and intense bike rides - and how it isn't necessarily a bad thing to feel exhausted and overwhelmed.

Thanks for listening!

Last week, Brittany asked you for your questions and feedback (you can still email her at [email protected]), and this week, she begins to answer!

But unfortunately, Brittany is a little under the weather, so she will get to most of your emails next week.

In this episode, she focuses on a particularly inspiring note she got from a fan and what she learned from it.

Email Brittany your questions and they could make next week's episode!

In this episode, Brittany calls journalist Drew Jubera, who was originally assigned to the GQ story that led to Last Chance U on Netflix. (In fact, he even came up with the title.)

This episode is the first time we really hear from Brittany about some of her favorite (and least favorite) memories from the show, including controversial figures (Coach Buddy Stevens) and beloved students (Ronald Ollie).

She asks Drew about Stevens - is he really an a**hole? - and Drew's favorite memories from Scooba, Miss. From old Coke machines to summer practice fields to why Drew thinks a junior college player led to the Patriots winning the Super Bowl two years ago, this episode is a fascinating listen.

This week, Brittany diagnoses the problems of poverty in education. No one chooses to be poor. And children have no say whatsoever.

Why punish kids who can't afford school supplies, or school clothes? What does that teach them and how does that impact them later in life?

And what can we do about this national crisis?
