June 2022 Preview

After 10 minutes describing our lack of web design experience, we kick off the summer proper with a preview of what’s coming out this month. We kick things off with a bonus episode where Dr. Jon Freeman from The Brooklyn Strategist game store explains how board games and learning can combine. Then, for our full-length episodes, we talk with Dr. Shala Ala’i-Rosales about bringing joy through early childhood instruction, start preparing for the next apocalypse, and visit a foundational topic in behavior analysis for the first time ever. Minus our two-hour Book Club episode about it.
