Summary
Don't adjust your podcast player folks, you have the right show. Welcome to Session 319 of the Behavioral Observations Podcast. If you've been listening for a bit, you know what's coming. If you're new to the show however, first, welcome and thanks for listening.
Every year, I team up with my friends from the ABA Inside Track Podcast to do a Year In Review episode. We've tinkered with the format over time, but for this one, we talk briefly about the trends and issues that we thought were important in 2025. From there, we discussed some of the most downloaded shows from our podcasts this year and speculate as to why these ones resonated so much.
We close the show talking about how both of our shows are turning 10 years old very soon. So we look back on what we've learned over a decade of podcasting!

| 0:32.1 | this, but every year I team up with my friends from ABA Inside Track to do a year in the review episode. We've tinkered with the |
| 0:39.3 | format a little bit over time, but for this one, we started off the show by talking briefly |
| 0:44.1 | about the trends and issues that we thought came to light in the year of 2025. And, you know, |
| 0:51.4 | some things like, you know, AI trends and things like that that are getting lots of discussion. |
| 0:56.2 | From there, we discussed some of the most downloaded shows from our podcasts over this year |

| 1:28.8 | grateful I am to have you as a listener and the audience more generally as a community here. |
| 1:36.5 | This podcast has impacted me in ways that I can't even begin to describe. It would take several |
| 1:42.3 | podcast episodes to kind of work that out. |
| 1:45.3 | And it's probably not that fun for listening. I'd rather just interview interesting people and |
| 1:49.3 | share those conversations with you. And that's exactly what I'm going to continue to do in |
| 1:54.4 | 26. So thanks so much for being a part of the journey here, as it were. I really enjoyed doing this, |
