Several weeks ago, Greg Hanley reached out to me and asked if he could help do something to commemorate the 100^th episode of the show. Specifically, he invited me down to the offices of FTF Behavioral Consulting in Worcester, Mass to hang out with all the amazing behavior analysts he works with for the afternoon.\\xa0

During the visit, Greg turned the tables on me and put me in the interview hot seat. He asked me some really good questions about the podcast, and what I\\u2019ve learned from doing it over the last 4 years or so. I\\u2019ve been interviewed before, both on this podcast as well as a few others, but I think Greg managed to eke out a few stories from me that I haven\\u2019t told before, and more generally, asked some really great questions. By the end of this show, you might be asking yourself why he doesn\\u2019t have a podcast himself?\\xa0

My original plan going into this was to try to deflect every question and turn the conversation back to the cool stuff that he\\u2019s doing with FTF, what\\u2019s new with practical functional assessment, and so forth. Sadly, before we started recording, he strictly forbade me from doing so. As such, I\\u2019ll just have to have him on again in the future, or do another private Q & A with Greg with the Behavioral Observations Podcast Membership Group.\\xa0

Before I mention this episode\\u2019s sponsors, I\\u2019d like to take a minute to thank you, the listener, for helping me get to Session 100. I really feel that this show is an interactive endeavor, as I have met so many people in my travels and corresponded with BCBA\\u2019s from around the world. We talk about this for a little bit in this episode, but I want to mention it again and just let you know how much I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to download and listen to the podcast. The responses in the never-ending task analysis that is podcasting would\\u2019ve extinguished long ago if it wasn\\u2019t for all the encouragement and feedback I\\u2019ve received. At the risk of sounding overly sappy, this podcast has changed me as a person and a professional, so let me just conclude this session with a heartfelt thank you.\\xa0
