On the night of April 20, 1989, a desolate stretch of highway near Circle, Montana, was plunged into chaos. After a head-on collision, Patricia Meehan emerged from the wreckage, dazed but seemingly unharmed. She was not frantic or crying for help. Instead, she was unnervingly silent. Patricia then climbed a fence, watched the aftermath for a moment, and walked away into the Montana night, sparking a decades-long mystery fueled by thousands of sightings across the country.

On December 14, 1978, six-year-old Christi Lynn Farni testified in front of a grand jury to describe the abuse she suffered from her father. Just hours later, she was reported missing to the Medford, Oregon, police department. Her case is now the oldest unsolved case of a missing child in the entire county. Christie is white with brown hair and brown eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she was 3'8” and weighed approximately 50lbs. She also spoke with a slight speech impediment, has a burn scar on her chest, and her ears are pierced. As of the recording of this episode, she would be 53 years old. Anyone with information is urged to call the Medford Police Department at 541-770-4783.

We talk about collaboration, but our brains often treat work like a win-lose game. In this episode, I break down Zero-Sum Bias, the belief that someone else's win automatically means your loss, where it comes from, how it quietly shapes team dynamics, and what you can do to build more win-win outcomes at work.What if your brain has been keeping score at work this whole time? And the game it thinks you're playing doesn't actually exist?We repeat lines like, “If a stakeholder wins, designers lose,” or “If the PM wins, users lose,” so often that they start to feel like facts. In this episode of the Cognition Catalog, we unpack Zero-Sum Bias, the belief that someone else's gain must come at your expense, and how that thinking quietly turns collaboration into a contest.I walk through where this bias comes from, starting with early economic and game theory models like zero-sum games, where wins and losses truly do net out to zero, and how that maps onto our evolutionary history of genuine scarcity. Food, safety, and resources really were limited, so one person's gain often did mean someone else's loss. The problem is that our brains still carry that wiring into modern workplaces that are full of shared goals, interdependence, and cross-functional teams.From design vs. product vs. engineering “tensions” to resourcing, prioritization, and recognition, I break down how zero-sum thinking shows up in everyday UX work—and what changes when you stop assuming only one side can win. We'll talk about practical ways to spot the bias, shift toward non-zero-sum thinking, and design team habits that reward collaboration over quiet competition.If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “If they win, I lose,” this episode will help you reset the scoreboard and build healthier ways of working together.Topics:• 02:08 Debunking Zero Sum Thinking• 03:13 Origins and Evolution of Zero Sum Bias• 04:09 Impact of Zero Sum Bias on Teams• 06:18 Strategies to Combat Zero-Sum BiasTo explore more about the Naive Cynicism, don't miss the full article @ cognitioncatalog.com—Thanks for listening!

Pinky and Ava turn up the heat as they dive into one of Ava's favorite pleasures—and one of Pinky's former fears: spanking. Ava teases Pinky as her "pampered princess," while Pinky gets real about how letting go of control and stepping into trust changed everything. With a safe space, a little surrender, and a lot of curiosity, Pinky discovers that pushing boundaries can feel very good. It's playful, it's daring, it's deliciously intimate—just the way pajama parties should be.

In 1984, the Tapp family made a home at 13 Kelvin Drive in the Melbourne suburb of Ferntree Gully, Victoria, Australia. It's been described as a safe, peaceful suburb with a near-zero crime rate. 35-year-old Margaret Tapp thought it was the ideal place to raise her two children, 9-year-old Seana and 14-year-old Justin. She'd been divorced from her husband, Donald Tapp for about 5 years and was full steam ahead with forging this new life for herself and her children. She worked full-time as a nurse and was in her third year studying law full-time at Monash University. Her goal was to combine her work experience to specialize in medical malpractice cases. But before she could realize all these dreams, before she could see her kids graduate and start families of their own, it all came crashing down.

A huge part of following God is trusting that what He has revealed is exactly what we need to know.
We chat about how your characters evolve over the years. Webcomics are typically projects that extend over many years or even decades, slowly evolving as they go. Your characters change over that time due to all sorts of factors: you forget how to draw them between pages (I've done that so many times), you want to try out new things or popular styles, you use the wrong references, you change how you feel about certain things, or you change how you write them for various reasons. For me I've been drawing my character Pinky since the late 90s, Pinky has been going for 27 years now in various forms and the characters in Bottomless Waitress have been around for over 10 years. In those comics I now take months between drawing new pages so it's easy to forget how I'm suppose to draw them, I have to look up the last 4 pages every time and research how they're supposed to look, I remember most of it but it's easy to get details wrong. Because of that the characters evolve over time when I make little mistakes that become embedded and then reiterated. Other changes happen when I just decide I don't like older styles and want to try new things: less cartoony, more cartoony, more realistic, more manga influenced, more painterly etc. Pinky and the rest of the characters in her comic have gone through so many changes over the years and I'm grateful that the webcomic format allows me to have that freedom. Bottomless Waitress is a collaboration with Banes so I don't change the writing of the characters, but I change the look of them just as much and experiment with new styles. I do not understand how ANY of their hairstyles work so those change slightly all the time because of that. Character bibles would help but who has time for that crap? haha! How have your characters changed and why?

This week, I sit down with Sarah Doody to talk about why so many designers feel stuck, and why it has nothing to do with talent. We explore how designers can apply their own UX process to their careers, create clarity through “compass statements,” and build a roadmap that actually leads somewhere.What would happen if you stopped treating your portfolio like the product—and started treating yourself like the product?This week, I'm joined by UX researcher, product designer, and career strategist Sarah Doody to unpack a hard truth: most designers aren't broken; they're just not applying their own process to their careers. After years of helping teams build the right products, Sarah noticed the same patterns designers use at work rarely show up in their job search. That gap is exactly what inspired her to start Career Strategy Lab.In our conversation, we dig into the symptoms of “identity fog,” why so many designers struggle to articulate their own value, and how the industry's obsession with FANG feeds unrealistic expectations. Sarah breaks down her “Product of You” framework—designing yourself, marketing yourself, and selling yourself—and shows how a single compass statement can influence everything from what projects you showcase to which jobs you apply for.We also talk about experimentation, metrics, tailoring your materials, and the surprising reasons why designers waste months tweaking their portfolios without improving their outcomes. If you've ever felt stuck, lost, or unsure how to stand out in a crowded market, this episode will give you the clarity and the next steps you've been missing.Give it a listen. You might walk away with a completely new way to think about your career.Topics:• 01:57 – Feeling Stuck in Your UX Career• 03:28 – Understanding Career Identity Fog• 06:00 – The Importance of an Elevator Pitch• 09:57 – Applying UX Processes to Your Career• 23:24 – Experimentation and Metrics in Job Search• 26:39 – Tailoring Your Resume and Portfolio• 34:02 – The Role of ATS and AI in Job Applications• 37:47 – Rethinking Success Beyond FANG Companies• 39:40 – Golden Handcuffs: The Reality of Working at FANG• 41:17 – Creating a Life Roadmap Before a Career Roadmap• 43:39 – Defining Your Perfect Day and Career Goals• 45:17 – The Importance of Total Compensation Packages• 46:57 – Effective Job Search Strategies and Networking• 48:47 – Documenting Your Work and Portfolio Tips• 53:56 – The Value of Paid Career CoachingHelpful Links:• Connect with Sarah on LinkedIn• The Career Strategy Lab• The Career Strategy Podcast—Thanks for listening!

This week, we break down Occam's Razor as a practical tool for faster, cleaner decision-making. From troubleshooting bugs to interpreting teammate behavior, we explore why starting with the simplest explanation first prevents stalled projects, wasted cycles, and unnecessary team friction.What would happen if your team stopped jumping to complex explanations and started solving problems from the simplest point forward?This week on the Cognition Catalog, we explore Occam's Razor through a lens most teams rarely consider: operational clarity. We all talk about avoiding assumptions, but the truth is that most slowdowns in cross-functional work happen because we add assumptions instead of stripping them away. Occam's Razor gives us a mental model to prevent that.I share a real example of how one missed Friday message spiraled into a completely avoidable narrative—all because I skipped the simplest explanation. But this isn't just about communication. The same thing happens in product reviews, sprint planning, bug triage, data interpretation, and even strategic debates. The more complexity we add early, the harder it becomes to make good decisions.We dig into how starting simple doesn't make you naive, it makes you fast. It helps reduce noise, focus conversations, and unlock the clarity teams need to move forward. If you want a smoother workflow, fewer misunderstandings, and fewer dramatic leaps in logic, give this one a listen.Topics:• 00:00 - Introduction: Overthinking Simple Problems• 00:50 - Welcome to Cognition Catalog• 01:18 - Sponsor Shoutout: Mobbin• 02:03 - A Personal Story of Overcomplication• 02:57 - Understanding Occam's Razor• 04:50 - Applying Occam's Razor in Team Dynamics• 06:51 - Practical Takeaways from Occam's RazorTo explore more about the Naive Cynicism, don't miss the full article @ cognitioncatalog.com—Thanks for listening!

Anaiah Walker entered the Arizona foster care system at age 13. Before her 14th birthday, she was trafficked by adults posing as teenagers online. By age 15, she ran away from several group homes and was officially listed as a missing child with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Just after her 16th birthday, she was supposed to testify against her abusers in court, but on May 22, 2020, Anaiah was found dead in a ditch on Interstate 10 near Watson Road. Her cause of death was high-velocity impact. She has never received justice. The Buckeye Police Department is searching for a 2016 to 2018 Honda Civic EX or LX in the color Midnight Burgundy Pearl. They say the owner may have replaced the driver's side door mirror cover, the front bumper, and the left front fog light cover after Anaiah's death.

What can slicing a watermelon teach us about design? Turns out… quite a lot. This week, I chat with Vitaly Friedman, founder of Smashing Magazine, to explore curiosity, inefficiency, and why the best designers obsess over process, not perfection.What if your next design breakthrough came not from a book or a course, but from learning to slice a watermelon?Vitaly Friedman has spent decades shaping how designers think about the web. But in this conversation, we go beyond pixels and patterns to talk about something much more profound: how curiosity itself becomes a design tool. From choosing the perfect watermelon to mastering the art of ironing, Vitaly reveals how everyday obsessions can teach us how to think, learn, and design better.We explore how designers can reclaim joy and curiosity in their work, especially in environments where efficiency and productivity often come at the expense of creativity. Vitaly's take? It's not about finding the perfect way to do something—it's about exploring many ways and discovering meaning in the process.From grilled watermelons to enterprise UX, we connect the dots between experimentation, self-learning, and the messy human side of design.If you've ever felt stuck chasing “best practices” or trying to find the “right” answer, this episode will remind you that sometimes, the most valuable thing you can do is play.Topics:• 03:39 – The Watermelon Metaphor• 05:37 – Choosing the Perfect Watermelon• 09:19 – Cutting Techniques and Presentation• 13:34 – Grilling Watermelon and Culinary Creativity• 14:28 – Learning and Self-Education• 15:13 – The Journey of Exploration• 18:28 – Imposter Syndrome and Asking for Help• 22:00 – Humanizing Executives and Stakeholders• 22:48 – The Importance of Curiosity• 25:34 – Ironing and Finding Zen• 30:01 – The Role of Enjoyment in Learning• 31:35 – Procrastination and Productivity• 33:46 – Procrastination and Focus• 34:48 – Memorable Conference Experience• 37:08 – Finding Joy in Enterprise UX Design• 38:50 – Challenges in Enterprise Projects• 41:35 – Building Trust and Team Culture• 50:50 – Balancing Exploration and DeliveryHelpful Links:• Connect with Vitaly on LinkedIn• Smashing Magazine• Design Patterns For AI Interfaces—Thanks for listening!

In this special Halloween episode, we follow Evelyn—a weary UX researcher trapped in a testing loop that refuses to end. Each new participant looks strangely familiar. Each test begins the same way. And no matter what she changes, they all say the same thing: “I can't find the button.” The real horror? It's not the prototype that's broken… It's her process.Today, we're trading our usual interviews for a Halloween story straight out of every designer's worst nightmare: The Infinite Usability Test.Meet Evelyn—a mid-level UX researcher running a morning of user tests that won't quit. Every time she adjusts the design, another “Alex” walks in and repeats the same fateful words: “I can't find the button.”As the day unravels, Evelyn realizes she's stuck in more than a bad sprint—she's caught in a validation loop. Each fix only pulls her deeper into the same mistakes, and each round of testing brings her face-to-face with the one insight she's been avoiding all along.Because sometimes, the scariest thing in UX isn't user feedback…It's hearing something you didn't expect.Join us for a hauntingly familiar tale about deadlines, doubt, and the difference between proving you're right and learning that you're not.Will Evelyn escape the room—or will she keep testing until the end of time?Tune in to find out… if you dare.---Featuring Actress and UX Designer extraordinaire, Stephanie TerreroIf you enjoyed this spooky UX Design scary story, check out our previous episodes:• The Stakeholder from Hell• The Tale of the Cursed Prototype• A Cautionary Tale of Deceptive UX Patterns —Thanks for listening!

If you've ever wondered why you're still “senior” after years of great work, this episode is for you. Catt Small joins me to unpack what it actually takes to step into a staff designer role—the skills, mindset shifts, and invisible work no one tells you about.You've nailed the craft, shipped great work, and mentored others. So why are you still stuck at senior?Getting promoted isn't always about skill gaps. Sometimes it's about visibility, influence, and how you show up. In this episode, I sit down with Catt Small, Staff Product Designer, developer, and author of The Staff Designer, to explore what separates a strong senior designer from a true staff-level one.Catt shares the lessons that inspired her book: the moments of frustration, the confusion around “influence,” and the realization that being good at your craft isn't enough. We talk about the transition from execution to strategy, how to set a vision, navigate organizational politics, and build the kind of social capital that makes people listen when you speak.If you're wondering what's next after senior, or how to stop spinning your wheels, this episode breaks down the hidden skills that actually move your career forward. It's a candid look at how to lead without managing, earn trust across disciplines, and find meaning in the messy middle of your career.Topics:• 04:19 - Cat Small's Journey in Design• 09:39 - Understanding the Transition from Senior to Staff• 12:02 - The Role of Influence in Career Growth• 14:14 - Navigating Titles and Organizational Structures• 30:31 - The Importance of Vision in Design• 36:22 - Enhancing User Experience with Prototypes• 38:01 - Inspiring Vision and Influence• 39:12 - Negotiating and Planning for Vision Execution• 41:55 - Building Cross-Functional Collaboration• 46:41 - Balancing Craft and Soft Skills• 50:57 - Delegation and Accountability in Design• 57:34 - Promoting Your Work and Final ThoughtsHelpful Links:• Connect with Catt on LinkedIn• The Staff Product Designer• Staff Designer: Influence & Lead as an Individual Contributor—Thanks for listening!

Naive cynicism makes collaboration feel like competition. In this episode, we unpack the subtle bias that convinces us we're objective while hidden motives drive everyone else, and explore how that thinking slowly erodes trust and teamwork.What happens when you stop seeing your teammates as collaborators and start seeing them as competitors with hidden motives?Ever had a PM question your design and immediately thought, “They just care about their roadmap”? That instinctive thought isn't insight, it's naive cynicism, the quiet bias that makes us assume we're objective while everyone else is playing politics.In this episode, we dig into the research from Lee Ross, Emily Pronin, Justin Krueger, and Thomas Gilovich to uncover how this bias takes root in teams. From design critiques and sprint reviews to roadmap discussions and leadership dynamics, naive cynicism distorts collaboration by replacing curiosity with suspicion.You'll learn how this bias shows up in everyday team interactions and what you can do to stop it. We'll explore how to recognize your own illusion of objectivity, make reasoning visible, and rebuild trust through transparency and generosity. Because collaboration only works when we give each other the benefit of the doubt.Topics:• 01:48 - Recognizing Naive Cynicism in Teams• 03:01 - Understanding the Roots of Naive Cynicism• 04:45 - Impact of Naive Cynicism on Team Dynamics• 07:11 - Strategies to Counter Naive CynicismTo explore more about the Naive Cynicism, don't miss the full article @ cognitioncatalog.com—Thanks for listening!

How much of what we watch in true crime entertainment is actually true? And what happens when a story is rewritten for the screen, replacing a family's painful, decades-long mystery with a neat, tidy, and conclusive fictional story? The new season of Netflix's Monster is a global phenomenon. But in its telling of the Ed Gein story, it presents a young woman named Evelyn Hartley as one of his confirmed victims. It's a gripping narrative. There's just one problem. According to the official investigation, it's not true. My mission in this episode is to tell the true, unresolved story of Evelyn Hartley's disappearance, to reclaim the facts from the fiction, and to remember the girl who vanished long before she was ever a character on a screen. 14-year-old Evelyn Grace Hartley was last seen on October 24, 1953, in La Crosse, Wisconsin. She has brown hair and blue eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she was 5'6” and weighed approximately 126lbs. She was last seen wearing red jeans, a white blouse, and white bobby socks. Anyone with information is asked to call the La Crosse Police Department at 608-785-5962.

In Austin, Texas, in 1991, the city was on the verge of becoming the place we know today, a tech hub, a cultural destination. But back then, it was still a big town that felt small, a place that believed itself safe from the kind of darkness that haunted bigger cities. At the Hillside strip mall on West Anderson Lane, there was a little shop called "I Can't Believe It's Yogurt!" It was a symbol of that every day American life… a place for after-school treats, first dates, and a first job. A place of simple, ordinary innocence. Buton the cold night of December 6, 1991, this symbol of innocence became the scene of an unspeakable crime. An act of such brutal violence that it would steal four young lives and leave a wound on the soul of the city that would fester for nearly 34 years. Amy, Eliza, Jennifer, and Sarah would become permanently etched into the city's memory. Their story became a decades-long quest, not just for a killer, but for the truth. It was a quest marred by false starts, thousands of dead-end leads, wrongful convictions that sent innocent men to prison, and ultimately, a scientific breakthrough that no one, not the investigators, not the families, not the city of Austin, ever saw coming. What happened inside the yogurt shop on that cold December night? And how did one of the most infamous cold cases in Texas history finally find its answer?
