Episode Overview In this special episode of the Behavioral Observations Podcast, I had the honor of celebrating the 25th installment of the Inside JABA Series. This one was particularly meaningful because it also marks the final appearance of Dr. John Borrero in his role as Editor-in-Chief of The Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis. I invited John to reflect on his three-year tenure—what he learned from reading an enormous volume of manuscripts, how his thinking evolved, and why adapting our language is essential if we want behavior analysis to reach broader audiences. From there, we transitioned into an informative conversation with Dr. Nate Call from Emory University. Nate's recent work focuses on how we can better disseminate applied behavior analysis, not just distribute it. His paper, Scholarship as an Operating Class: Strategies and tactics for increasing dissemination of applied behavior analysis, has already shifted how I think about how our field packages and shares research. In this episode, Nate walked us through actionable strategies for increasing the reach and impact of our work. Key Topics Covered in This Episode 1. John Borrero's Reflections from the Editor's Chair John looked back on his three years as Editor-in-Chief, and I asked him what surprised him most. He talked about: How important clear, accessible language is for dissemination Why behavior analysts must evolve how we communicate without losing our scientific roots Efforts to make JABA papers more accessible through translated articles What it's like to manage a massive editorial workflow and team 2. The Real Difference Between Dissemination and Distribution Nate clarified something that—and I'll admit—I hadn't always thought deeply about: there's a big difference between making your work available and ensuring your work is actually used. Nate described it like: Distribution = scattering seeds Dissemination = preparing the soil so they actually grow He also explained why early-career researchers often focus on distribution out of necessity, and how we can transition to more deliberate dissemination strategies over time. 3. Scholarship as an Operant Class Nate walked me through the framework behind his recent paper. He described scholarly behavior as something shaped by contingencies—just like anything else. We talked about: How individual and systemic consequences shape publishing choices Why some of the most high-impact papers come from individuals rather than large labs Concrete strategies we can use to increase the visibility and influence of our work 4. Boundary Encounters and Second-Generation Innovations I asked Nate about how ideas move between disciplines, and he introduced the concept of boundary encounters. We discussed: Incoming vs. outgoing boundary encounters How second-generation innovations help behavior analysis reach audiences outside our traditional spaces Why these interactions are essential if we want ABA to have a broader societal impact 5. Expanding Our Methodological Toolkit We took a deep dive into methodology and talked about the strengths of single-subject designs—as well as their limitations. Nate made a compelling case for: When behavior analysts should consider Randomized Control Trials, implementation science, or mixed methods Why diversifying methodologies helps us answer questions that matter to educators, policymakers, and grant reviewers What we lose when we rely exclusively on traditional single-subject approaches 6. Participatory Action Research and Social Validity I asked Nate to explain participatory action research, and he shared a powerful example involving first responders and families in crisis situations. He emphasized: The importance of involving stakeholders early How PAR elevates social validity and context Why many federal funders now expect qualitative or participatory components How behavior analysts can begin building these skills, even if it feels unfamiliar 7. Measuring Our Impact More Effectively We also explored how to know whether dissemination is working. Nate and I discussed: Bibliographic network analysis Alt-metric measures The importance of citing intentionally to strengthen high-quality scholarship within the field 8. Nate's Advice for New BCBAs To close the episode, I asked Nate what he'd tell new behavior analysts entering the field. He encouraged them to: Read widely—far beyond behavior-analytic journals Become conversant in different research methods Build collaborations with experts in qualitative, mixed, and implementation-science approaches Think functionally about their own scholarly and professional behavior 9.

Gospel Luke 19:11-28 While people were listening to Jesus speak, he proceeded to tell a parable because he was near Jerusalem and they thought that the Kingdom of God would appear there immediately. So he said, "A nobleman went off to a distant country to obtain the kingship for himself and then to return. He called ten of his servants and gave them ten gold coins and told them, 'Engage in trade with these until I return.' His fellow citizens, however, despised him and sent a delegation after him to announce, 'We do not want this man to be our king.' But when he returned after obtaining the kingship, he had the servants called, to whom he had given the money, to learn what they had gained by trading. The first came forward and said, 'Sir, your gold coin has earned ten additional ones.' He replied, 'Well done, good servant! You have been faithful in this very small matter; take charge of ten cities.' Then the second came and reported, 'Your gold coin, sir, has earned five more.' And to this servant too he said, 'You, take charge of five cities.' Then the other servant came and said, 'Sir, here is your gold coin; I kept it stored away in a handkerchief, for I was afraid of you, because you are a demanding man; you take up what you did not lay down and you harvest what you did not plant.' He said to him, 'With your own words I shall condemn you, you wicked servant. You knew I was a demanding man, taking up what I did not lay down and harvesting what I did not plant; why did you not put my money in a bank? Then on my return I would have collected it with interest.' And to those standing by he said, 'Take the gold coin from him and give it to the servant who has ten.' But they said to him, 'Sir, he has ten gold coins.' He replied, 'I tell you, to everyone who has, more will be given, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away. Now as for those enemies of mine who did not want me as their king, bring them here and slay them before me.'" After he had said this, he proceeded on his journey up to Jerusalem. Reflection There's an image hidden in this reading that I only have recently discovered. These people are looking for the Kingdom of God to be established, to be finished so that they can receive all of its benefits. But it's clear what Jesus has in mind in terms of the kingdom of God is a process, a continual work, and the work is you and I have been gifted with something that's valuable. Our task is to share it, and when we share the gift that God has given, we multiply it. And what's clear in this king that has come to rule, this kingdom of God, is his intense desire that we are gifted so that we may be gifting others, not just afraid to make a mistake, but willing to put ourselves out there and whatever gift we have to share it with the most open and generous spirit. That's the kingdom of God. Closing Prayer Father, bless us with an awareness of the things that we are given so that we can be clearly confident that they don't come from us, they come from you. Give us courage in generously sharing them with those around us. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Henk de Regt is a professor of Philosophy of Science and the director of the Institute for Science in Society at Radboud University. Henk wrote the book on Understanding. Literally, he wrote what has become a classic in philosophy of science, Understanding Scientific Understanding. Henks' account of understanding goes roughly like this, but you can learn more in his book and other writings. To claim you understand something in science requires that you can produce a theory-based explanation of whatever you claim to understand, and it depends on you having the right scientific skills to be able to work productively with that theory - for example, making qualitative predictions about it without performing calculations. So understanding is contextual and depends on the skills of the understander. There's more nuance to it, so like I said you should read the book, but this account of understanding distinguishes it from explanation itself, and distinguishes it from other accounts of understanding, which take understanding to be either a personal subjective sense - that feeling of something clicking in your mind - or simply the addition of more facts about something. In this conversation, we revisit Henk's work on understanding, and how it touches on many other topics, like realism, the use of metaphors, how public understanding differs from expert understanding, idealization and abstraction in science, and so on. And, because Henk's kind of understanding doesn't depend on subjective awareness or things being true, he and his cohorts have begun working on whether there could be a benchmark for degrees of understanding, to possibly asses whether AI demonstrates understanding, and to use as a common benchmark for humans and machines.

In this inspiring episode of The Enterprise Sessions, Professor Michele Barbour sits down with Dr. Camilla Morelli, a senior lecturer in social anthropology at the University of Bristol, whose groundbreaking work with indigenous youth in the Amazon rainforest has taken an unexpected and powerful turn toward enterprise.  What begins as immersive ethnographic research with the Matses people of Peru evolves into a creative collaboration that empowers young people to tell their own stories through animation. Camilla shares how her passion for understanding childhood in rainforest communities led to co-produced films that are now shaping policy, influencing global youth agencies, and opening doors to commercial opportunities.  

Christian Carreon returns to Chat With Traders nearly three years after his first appearance, where he shared his remarkable journey through stage-five kidney failure and the discipline it forged in him as a trader. Today, he brings an even deeper perspective—on markets, on patience, and on the Box Strategy that has become his signature. Christian is a breakout trend trader who waits for compression, defines his levels meticulously, and only commits when price breaks cleanly from the “box” with tight risk and clear direction. In this conversation, he walks us through how his approach has evolved, how he sizes up with confidence, and why patience inside consolidation is the foundation of every edge he has. From day-trading futures for cash flow to swing-trading leading stocks for growth, Christian shares the discipline, structure, and gratitude that guide both his trading and his life.   Links + Resources:  ●      Follow Christian on X:  @trading_boxes ●      Christian on NinjaTrader Live ●      Christian on CWT Episode 254   Sponsor of Chat With Traders Podcast:  ●       Trade The Pool:  http://www.tradethepool.com   Time Stamps: Please note: Exact times will vary depending on current ads. ● 00:00 Intro and Background ● 05:23 Kidney Donation Journey ● 06:37 Recovery Process After Transplant ● 09:45 Mental Focus During Recovery ● 12:51 Trading Goals and Adjustments ● 12:09 Risk Management in Trading ● 12:38 Sizing Up and Position Management ● 15:24 Identifying Trading Opportunities ● 16:23 Market Conditions and Trading Strategy ● 17:28 Support and Resistance Analysis ● 19:00 Using Indicators for Trading ● 22:48 Influence of News on Trading ● 24:00 Box Strategy Overview ● 27:18 Adapting Trading Strategies ● 29:40 Trading Discipline and Limits ● 32:10 Managing Investor Funds ● 33:15 Handling Market Events ● 36:03 Investor Mistakes and Adaptation ● 47:04 Reflections on Trading Journey ● 50:34 Catch up with Tessa Trading Disclaimer: Trading in the financial markets involves a risk of loss.

Chris Feistl spent 26 years working for the DEA, including three years in Colombia during the 1990s, helping take down one of the most powerful drug empires in history — the Cali Cartel. His real-life work was portrayed in Narcos: Season 3, but the truth behind the show is even wilder. From undercover operations to high-stakes cartel takedowns, he witnessed firsthand the danger, corruption, and chaos of the war on drugs. Over his career, he earned the DEA Award of Honor, Award for Exceptional Service, and multiple Performance Awards for his role in international investigations. In this exclusive interview, he opens up about what really happened in Colombia, how Narcos got it right (and wrong), and what it was like to spend decades hunting some of the world's most dangerous traffickers. #LockedInWithIanBick #DEAAgent #Narcos #CaliCartel #TrueCrime #DrugCartel #NarcosNetflix #realstories Thank you to BLUECHEW for sponsoring this episode: Visit https://bluechew.com/ and use promo code LOCKEDIN at checkout to get your first month of BlueChew & pay five bucks for shipping.

In this episode, we discuss how Meta and its algorithms shape what we see online, why the penny has finally been discontinued, and the legal and economic complications that follow from eliminating small denominations. For the “foolishness of the week,” we highlight a small-town newspaper that was awarded a $3 million settlement stemming from an unlawful raid, and the First Amendment implications it raises. We examine the disconnect between a sluggish economy and soaring asset prices, discuss how Fed policy and excess liquidity fuel inflation in financial markets, and consider what rising bubbles in stocks, housing, gold, and bitcoin mean for retirement planning and long-term investment behavior. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:37 Meta Entertainment and Hot Wheels 04:49 The Discontinuation of the Penny 06:45 How Eliminating Pennies Would Affect Retailers and Consumers 11:18 Who Actually Has the Power to Change U.S. Currency 12:49 Reflections on U.S. Currency 15:57 Foolishness of the Week: $3 Million Newspaper Raid Settlement 18:05 Press Freedom, Accountability, and Government Overreach 20:58 Understanding Financial Bubbles 24:29 Why the Markets Aren't Reflecting Economic Reality 27:35 The Fed's Liquidity Regime and Phantom Wealth 33:56 Unintended Consequences of Economic Policies 37:55 Investing in a Changing Economy 38:49 Retirement Planning in a Bubble-Driven Economy 41:11 Learning from Historical Economic Events 43:14 Personal Anecdotes and Economic Trends 45:12 Future of Investments Learn more about your ad choices.

This podcast episode serves as a poignant tribute to the late John Bjorlie, who recently passed away on November 13, a date that coincidentally marks his sister Lisa's birthday. I share my personal reflections on the profound impact John had on my life and the lives of those around him, particularly highlighting his unique sense of humor and indomitable spirit during his final months. Throughout our years of friendship, John exhibited an unparalleled ability to bring joy and laughter, exemplified by our memorable golfing experiences together. As I embark on the journey of compiling a book that encapsulates his essence and the stories we shared, I express my gratitude for the support of friends and family who stood by him during his illness. This episode not only honors John's legacy but also invites listeners to cherish the memories of those they hold dear.In a heartfelt tribute to John Bjorlie, the episode delves into the shared memories and experiences that defined their friendship. The speaker reminisces about their adventures, particularly their golfing escapades, which served as a backdrop for countless stories and laughter. The camaraderie developed on the golf course is emphasized, illustrating how John's jovial spirit and lighthearted banter enriched each round they shared. Specific incidents, such as John achieving multiple hole-in-ones and his unique approach to life, are recounted with fondness. The narrative not only celebrates John's life but also acknowledges the collective grief felt by those who knew him. The speaker discusses the importance of preserving John's legacy through a book that will capture the essence of their friendship and the lessons learned along the way, enriching the lives of others through John's story.Takeaways: The first two weeks of November were traditionally filled with celebrations and birthdays, but this year marked a poignant change. John Bjorlie, a beloved friend, passed away on November 13, coinciding with his sister Lisa's birthday, symbolizing a personal connection between them. Throughout his life, John had a remarkable ability to bring joy to those around him, often through humor and wit. I recall fondly the numerous golf outings with John, where he demonstrated both passion for the game and a unique sense of camaraderie. The stories shared in this podcast serve as a testament to the profound impact John had on his friends and community. I am in the process of compiling a book that chronicles John's life and the memories we shared, aiming to honor his legacy.

Gospel  Luke 19:1-10 At that time Jesus came to Jericho and intended to pass through the town. Now a man there named Zacchaeus, who was a chief tax collector and also a wealthy man,  was seeking to see who Jesus was; but he could not see him because of the crowd, for he was short in stature.  So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore tree in order to see Jesus, who was about to pass that way. When he reached the place, Jesus looked up and said,  “Zacchaeus, come down quickly, for today I must stay at your house.”  And he came down quickly and received him with joy.  When they saw this, they began to grumble, saying,  “He has gone to stay at the house of a sinner.”  But Zacchaeus stood there and said to the Lord, “Behold, half of my possessions, Lord, I shall give to the poor, and if I have extorted anything from anyone I shall repay it four times over.” And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house because this man too is a descendant of Abraham.  For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save what was lost.” Reflection The beautiful thing in this passage to me is the work of Jesus. He's not come into the world to somehow judge us, or show us our weaknesses, but just somehow by his very presence awaken in people a desire for the Kingdom of God. And that kingdom is caring for the poor. It is making up for the things that you've done that have harmed people. Zacchaeus is a beautiful image of the gifts that Jesus had brought to the world. Closing Prayer Father, help us to see you. Help us to understand you. Help us to know your gifts that are there for us. It's our trust in you that is so important. Increase our trust. And we ask this in Jesus;' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The recent journey of Vaisesika Dāsa and Nirākulā Dāsī through India was filled with inspiring moments they eagerly shared, including their stops in Jaipur, Puṇe, and Karauli. Among their favorite destinations were the renowned Imlitalā in Vṛndāvan and the tranquil Govardhan Āśram. They particularly stressed how important it is for devotees to read the Caitanya Caritāmṛta together, which provides remarkable depth of realization. The conversation wrapped up beautifully, offering insights into the spiritual meaning of their travels and how they navigate their lives between Vṛndāvan and the West.

[04:42] Was there anyone you got to reconnect with after a long time? [06:56] What was one of your favorite meals you had? [08:57] When you think of Vrindavan and you close your eyes, where does it take you? [10:34] How do you deal with fatigue on a day-to-day basis during an Yatra?

[17:18] How do you retain the freshness of going to the same dhams again and again, and how do you not take it for granted each time you go? [19:09] Did you see any monkeys? [21:54] Would you rather live in Vrindavan or live in America?

A Kirby has good hair!”Reflections on music, family traditions, and the little things that make life meaningful.Don't miss the viral news story breakdown, a round of pun-filled dad jokes, and a look at why Mickey Mouse's 97th birthday is a big deal in the McIlree household.

The Fire That Prepares a Culture of Life: The Day of the Lord is described as “blazing like an oven”—a fire that purifies rather than destroys. This refining fire prepares our hearts, our culture, and our nation to reject the culture of death and embrace the fullness of life. Today's Scripture invites us to embrace God's purification so we can build a stronger culture of life.

In this episode of the Fan2Fan Podcast, Bernie and Pete dig into why horror remakes aren't just cash grabs; they can be cultural mirrors. They explore how each new version reflects the fears, politics, and anxieties of its era ion movies including Invasion of the Body Snatchers to The Thing, The Fly, The Crazies, and more. The duo discuss how Cold War paranoia, AIDS-era panic, post-9/11 distrust, and societal movements have all shaped how filmmakers reinterpret classic monsters. Whether it's aliens, body horror, or gaslighting, these remakes don't just retell familiar stories…they show us what society is truly afraid of in their moment in time. The conversation was prompted by an article titled "These Horror Remakes Are Vital Sociopolitical Mirrors Of Their Time" by Ariel Fisher (www.arielfisher.com).  For more info about the Fan2Fan Podcast, visit https://fan2fan.libsyn.com

In this episode, we'll dive into the complicated topic of "Inside Disability Law: Insights and Lessons with Attorney Kate MacKinnon."Most disability applicants think the claims process should be simple: you're sick, you can't work, and benefits should follow. But ERISA disability claims are full of misconceptions, hidden pitfalls, and insurance company tactics that can turn a legitimate claim into a long fight. In this episode of Winning Isn't Easy, we're joined by attorney Kate MacKinnon, a recently retired ERISA and individual disability lawyer who spent her career guiding policyholders through denials, appeals, and settlements. Drawing on decades of experience, Kate breaks down the realities every applicant needs to understand. We explore what led Kate to disability law and use her journey to reveal the misunderstandings that often hurt applicants - like the biggest myths about filing a claim, the confusion around appeals, and why many people unintentionally weaken their case by going at it alone. You'll also learn practical strategies: how cases are valued, why and how they settle, what to look for in a disability attorney, and the most common mistakes people make managing claims or appeals themselves. Kate shares guidance on working effectively with attorneys to strengthen a case from the start. As she reflects on her career, she offers clear wisdom for applicants facing uncertainty. You'll walk away with an honest roadmap to the claims and appeals process - and the insight to avoid costly missteps.

Designing a Sustainable Therapy Career: Reflections on Burnout, Legacy, and Letting Go Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy reflect on what it takes to build and sustain a meaningful therapy career and how to leave the profession well. They explore professional identity, burnout, and how to stay connected to the work without losing yourself in it. Drawing from recent interviews with Lynn Grodzki, Margaret Wehrenberg, and Ofra Obejas, they share insights on sustainability, capacity, and creating a “good finish” for your therapy career. Key Takeaways for Therapists: Therapists need intentional career design. Sustainability doesn't happen by accident. Burnout can distort your love for the work and your professional identity. Regular reflection helps ensure your career still aligns with your values and capacity. Building community and connection is essential to avoiding isolation in private practice. Planning early for closure allows for a more graceful and fulfilling finish.

Gospel Luke 18:35-43 As Jesus approached Jericho a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging, and hearing a crowd going by, he inquired what was happening. They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by." He shouted, "Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!" The people walking in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent, but he kept calling out all the more, "Son of David, have pity on me!" Then Jesus stopped and ordered that he be brought to him; and when he came near, Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" He replied, "Lord, please let me see." Jesus told him, "Have sight; your faith has saved you." He immediately received his sight and followed him, giving glory to God. When they saw this, all the people gave praise to God. Reflection When the one who can't see, felt perhaps? That this Jesus was someone who had the power to heal him. And he cries out for help. And Jesus makes it clear that it's simply the fact that he knew who he was. He knew he was the Son of God on some level. The Son of David. And he somehow knew this Son of David would have the power to heal him. And Jesus is just smiling when he says, ah here's a man who believes, who has faith in me, and that's what he needs in order to give us what we need. Closing Prayer Father, awaken in us the simple, childlike belief that you have the power to heal us. And healing comes in so many forms. Whatever it is today that we need, know in your heart that he will offer it to you. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.Happy Monday, Homemaker! We are continuing our Advent Reflections series with two articles on the second theme of Advent, peace, written by homemakers just like you. These two articles are meant to encourage you to reflect on our Prince of Peace, Jesus. His "peace that passes all understanding" makes a difference in your day to day homemaking because it is a peace not dependent on circumstances.  In the first article, Peace, Sarah Beaugh shares how Christ's peace sustained her through the long months of her husband's unemployment.  And in Experiencing Peace in the Season, Naomi Fata gives some very practical and actionable steps to "enter the peace of the season, rather than feeling dragged through the season."NOTES & LINKSRead these two reflections in full over on the blog @ theartofhomepodcast.com/blog, search "Advent Peace".FREE Daily Advent GuideConnect with Sarahwebsite | sarahbeaugh.cominstagram | @sarah.beaughConnect with Naomiwebsite | naomifata.netinstagram | @naomifataSupport the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support **Buy | as an Amazon affiliate, AoH receives a small commission at no extra cost to you when you use our links to purchase items we recommend
