## Resource

In this episode, we hang out with Ryan O’Donnell and get real about everything from making behavior analysis interesting to the outside world, to echo chambers, incels, and even why the APBA tables look like the ’90s threw up. We dive into self-management, reinforcement, punishment, and philosophical doubt while swapping stories, laughs, and some hard truths about how our field is seen.
