On today’s episode, we have Dr. Darren Sush on to talk about all things ethics! Darren is co-author of the book, “A workbook of Ethical Case Scenarios in Applied Behavior Analysis” so the dude knows his sh*t. We asked both personal ethical questions along with asking some of our listener’s questions. There isn’t a single ethics question that Darren shys away from.

On episode 69.5 (sorry we weren’t ready to let episode 69 go quite yet), We bring Back Nicholas Maio-Aether to answer all Liat’s burning questions on fetishes and let’s just say.... not vanilla sex. Tune in if you want to understand this meaning of “different strokes for different folks”. Maybe wearing a diaper and acting as a baby isn’t for you in the bedroom. No problem, we learn about other fetishes you can explore. This one you don’t want to miss. So tune in or miss the F out.

On episode 69, we talk all about SEX! Trust us when we tell you it’s not a conincidence that this episode fell on episode 69 👌🏾👈🏽. We knew this number only comes out once a podcast so we had to go big 🍆! We bring on Nicholas Maio-Aether, MSPSY, BCBA, LBA, to talk about his work as a BCBA and sex therapist. We were just as curious as you were as to what a day in that role can look like. This episode was so good that we couldn’t stop. Consider this episode the foreplay to next week’s episode all about fetishes. Tune in or miss the F out. Love ya. Mean it.

On today’s episode we reveal the shocking truth: Bitches have feelings too. We have had a ton of our listeners reach out and ask us to do an episode on grief. Took a while for us to be ready to take this topic by the horns, but we finally did it. On this episode, you can get to know us a little better as we talk about our own personal experience with grieving. Don’t worry we give you some #ReplacementBehaviors to engage in other than crying on the bathroom floor. But hey, we get it. Sometimes a good cry on the bathroom floor is #NecessaryAF. Tune in or miss the f#%k out. Show notes: If you or someone you know is struggling with a loss please reach out to someone for help.

On today’s episode we get fired up with one of the most passionate guests we have ever had on the show. Dr. Antonio Harrison is in the house for episode 67! Antonio is not your typical doctor he is THE @onecoachdoc. He is real and raw and straight up, just like he likes his whiskey. Antonio did not go the typical route we see in this field. He has a passion for sports and fitness and a drive unparalleled to most. He paved his own way by leading with Hello and always being true to himself. Antonio is a behavioral scientist, grad school professor, podcast host, virtual reality fitness coach, guided meditation coach, speaker, author, creator, husband, and dad of 3 #Impressive. We get super personal about both Antonio and Casey’s childhood, manipulating the environment and having to grow up fast, how to do something besides working in clinics, self-management skills, leading with hello, being a kind human, and the importance of communication. This episode is not to be listened to with little one’s around :) Tune the F in or miss the F out. Mean it.

Parenting is difficult as it is.  Throw in a worldwide pandemic and some days it feels like you might not make it through the day without smashing your head into the wall.  Luckily, we have Shira Karpel and Shayna Gaunt, who are both BCBAs and parents themselves. They might just be the original “Liat & Casey”, with how well these two jive. They provide some behavioral principles to make this time semi-okay. Tune in or miss the F out!

On today’s episode The Bitches bring on Rosie Jeffers, BCBA. We talk about influencers on social media and what behaviors one engages in and why. Rosie shares her experience of “failing” to become an influenster (yes there is a difference). She also reveals why the f#%k she is torturing herself with freezing showers that make her scream. Aren’t you a little curious? Tune in or miss the F out!

On episode 64 we bring it back home with a solo episode with just the bitches. Sometimes it’s nice to check in with everyone and shoot the #pb&j. We dive into the topic of happiness and what in the F does it mean to be “happy.” Everyone has their own definition of “happy” and we talk about our’s and also what behavioral principles we can apply to our own lives which can hopefully #generalize to yourselves too. We hope you enjoy our banter as much as we do. Tune in or miss the F out.

On episode 63, the Bitches bring on Chase Hughes who rivals our other guests with the longest and most impressive resume ever. Chase is a leading behavior expert in the United States and a #1 bestselling author of two books on tactical behavior skills. What started out as asking a girl out in a bar and getting #rejected, led to an obsession on understanding human behavior and the art of persuasion in the most extreme conditions. Chase helps us tackle the question of what makes us consider someone to be of authority. Chase's favorite quote is, “Everyone is wearing a mask, I’ll introduce you to the people behind them.” In today’s day this could not be more relevant #COVID. His law enforcement courses save lives around the world and he constantly pushes the boundaries of what's possible with human interaction. Although, we come from different backgrounds at the end of the day we are all humans and have behaviors #duh.

On episode 62, we bring on Dr. Keira Moore from Moore Behavior Consulting to talk all about sleep issues. Keira heard about us from her students and listened to our sleep episode and reached out to us and said we need some help, in the nicest possible way. She shared with us her approach to treating sleep issues as a BCBA-D. This chick knows what’s up when it comes to sleep and challenging behaviors. She has literally focused her entire career around the assessment and treatment of sleep problems. If you need hints on how the F to get your child to sleep or need advice for yourself (like Liat did), Tune the F in or miss the F out.

On episode 61, we are bringing it back to basics with Liat’s apparent “BFF”, Jordan Litt, M.Ed, BCBA, LBA-NYS. Liat takes control as always and turns this episode into a “game show”. On this show, we talk about the basics of ABA. I mean B-A-S-I-C-S. We discuss how we describe what we do to an outsider. We talk about our opinions on ABA and generally we just shoot the shit.
