Show Notes

Episode #278: Cowboy Stuttering. I chat with Dr. John Tetnowski, Ph.D., CCC, who is the Jeanette Sias Endowed Chair in Speech Pathology at Oklahoma State University. In addition to his over 25 years of clinical experience and over 85 published research papers about fluency disorders and research methods, and being a board certified fluency specialist and an ASHA Fellow, John also organizes free events for families of children to who stutter. And they are truly life-changing. Even for the parents!

Join me as I chat with John about his life-changing Cowboy Stuttering events and the Stuttering Family Day event I recently gave a cartooning workshop to the kids in Oklahoma City! We drew and presented cartoon characters of our stutter – even the fluent kids! One of them, a sibling of a boy who stutters, drew her character if she stuttered (a porcupine who would poke her with one of his quills). Mind blown!

I start this episode with my review of the movie, The Day the Earth Blew Up, starring Porky Pig and Daffy Duck and how it doesn’t contain the usual stuttering stereotypes.
