Oh, a change in format! Welcome to our new weekly episodes, our Paperback Shorties! In these episodes, we spend a very brief amount of time reviewing articles and books that we enjoy that wouldn't cover a season. These won't be worth CEs, but we hope you get a kick out of these just the same.

In our innaugural episode, we spend a bit of time talking about the 1974 article from Upper titled "The Unsuccessful Self-Treatment of a Case of 'Writer's Block.'" We also spend a bit of time talking about some replications!

I feel like Dune is a great discussion around UMOs and resource limits. Also, this is just a really well written book. Sure, it's not behavior analytic. And yea, maybe it's a bit nerdy. But the spice. must. flow.

In this episode, Shane gives as quick an overview of Dune as one could, and hopefully he convinces you to join him on Paul Atreides' journey as the Muad'Dib and the kwisatz haderach. Doesn't make sense? Yes, you're right. But it's worth it.
