Podcasters Podcasting! The Art of Dissemination, with Rose Griffin and Matt Cicoria

Let's talk about podcasting and the powerful role it plays in disseminating information. In this conversation, I'm joined by Matt Cicoria, a thought leader in ABA  podcasting and the host of the Behavioral Observations Podcast. This show is not just a cornerstone in the ABA podcasting community; it was also ahead of its time for the podcasting industry as a whole, with its first episode airing in February 2016 and planning beginning as early as 2015. Think about where podcasting was nearly a decade ago—still a niche format, but now it's a household term and a familiar type of media. Similarly, the ABA field has seen tremendous growth over the past decade, with a significant increase in the number of Board Certified Behavior Analysts entering the profession.

Matt's journey with the Behavioral Observations Podcast began with an interview featuring Dr. Gregory Hanley, a distinguished BCBA-D, setting the tone for many insightful conversations with leading experts in the field. Podcasting offers incredible benefits, from transforming one's career to creating additional revenue streams and fostering invaluable relationships with colleagues. However, these benefits come with the cost of the time and energy required for research and planning. Looking ahead, Matt is excited about expanding the reach of his podcast, with plans for interviews in Spanish through the BOP Español series, and potentially growing the platform into a broader media outlet. The future is bright for Matt and the Behavioral Observations Podcast, as they continue to innovate and lead in the ABA community.
