April 2021 Preview

Now that we’ve gotten our vaccines, we’re all back together at the studio table and raring to discuss this month’s episodes. First, we’re taking it back to the beginning with an episode on infant behavior, specifically, tummy time. Then we’ll be joined by Camille Morgan from the Love, Sex, and ABA podcast to discuss LGBTQIA+ diversity. Finally, we dust off the ol’ grab bag for the 11th time? Or 12th. We’ve lost track.
