This week we are joined by a very special guest, Board Certified Behavior Analyst Kendall Rindak-Samuel. Kendall joined us to talk about the fascinating world of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), showing how it can transform fields like education, sports, and corporate systems. Join us as we debunk common myths and gain an enriched understanding of human behavior, all while Kendall shares her dual expertise in behavioral sports psychology and dissemination.

During the episode Kendall discusses the value of ongoing research beyond initial education, highlighting how honing observational skills in daily life can strengthen both personal and professional relationships. She also touches on the pitfalls of self-diagnosis on social media and underscores the need for ethical standards in changing behaviors that genuinely impact individuals’ lives.
Effective communication is crucial in behavior analysis, and Kendall excels at translating complex terms into accessible language. She recently wrote a book called “Talk Behavior to Me: The Routledge Dictionary of the Top 150 Behavior Analytic Terms and Translations” so that the average person can better understand the different terms used in behavioral analysis. Tune in for practical insights and strategies to enhance your observational skills and deepen your understanding of human behavior, guided by Kendall's expert perspective.

What if building a genuine connection could be the key to cracking complex intelligence operations? This episode features Doug Laux, a former CIA case officer and bestselling author of "Left of Boom," who lifts the veil on his secretive world. Doug shares stories from his time working undercover in perilous environments like Afghanistan and Syria, where he learned the indispensable value of human connection and relationship-building. He also discusses his unexpected journey from field operations to television screens, offering a unique glance into life after the agency and the universal principles that guide human behavior, even amidst chaos.
The conversation takes an intriguing turn as we explore "left of boom," a term that has journeyed from military manuals into mainstream conversations. We'll uncover the essence of a case officer's role, including the challenges of recruiting spies and establishing trust with former adversaries. Doug reveals the operational hurdles of the Global War on Terror and how concepts like "left of boom" have transcended their original contexts. Through tales of camaraderie and professional bonds, Doug and I reminisce about shared experiences that highlight the ability to forge trust, whether in conflict zones or while engaging in light-hearted banter on alien-themed shows.
Beyond the cloak-and-dagger narratives, we tackle the moral complexities faced by intelligence officers working with former enemies and the persistent tension between adhering to protocol and embracing innovation. Doug provides a rare, candid look into the human side of intelligence operations, where empathy, authenticity, and strategic thinking are vital. From navigating bureaucracies at the CIA to exploring the mysteries of UFOs on Netflix, Doug Laux gives us a comprehensive tour of the paths less traveled, ensuring a captivating listen for anyone curious about the world of espionage and the human elements within.
