Episode 45: James Dean in a New Film and is “Boomer” a Racial Slur?




Grade A Nation show

Summary: Substitute teacher Paul Dawson is upset that he lost out to deceased actor James Dean on an acting role he tried out for. He also recently was dismissed from a substitute teaching position because he ate 80 pieces of snack sized Halloween candy, had to move his bowels in the middle of a line dancing activity, and called a middle school student the “n-word” in frustration after she called him a “boomer.” Things just haven’t been going Paul’s way!
