Classic episode: Jump in to the "way back machine" with Host Brandon Hall for the first ever LIVE taping of the Get a CUE podcast! In this classic episode, Chris Gosselin and Beth Hughes stopped by the 2019 MassCUE Fall Conference broadcast booth at Gillette Stadium for an interview about student voice, Flipgrid, and passion blogs. Hilarity ensued. It's a MassCUE favorite.
