Summer may be winding down, but we've still got lots of podcast visitors taking a trip by the virtual studio. This month, we're joined by Dr. Jeff Tiger to discuss delay tolerance and functional communication training and by Arin Donovan and Denisha Gingles from the Beautiful Humans social change-cast to discuss social justice. And, to top it all off, we discover if chocolate is better than gummies…with science!
