On the show this week the crew talks about non-compete clauses in the middle of a pandemic, the use of social media and Tik Tok, Michael prepared for a live presentation on xceptionaled.com, and building garden walls.  The group talks teletherapy and how that has changed the way they document and present therapy.  On Discord, you can interact directly with Matt, Michael, and Michelle and let them know how you handle articulation.  Christine Ristuccia, M.S. CCC-SLP, the creator of Say It Right and the Entire World of R, sat down with Matt to talk /R/, starting a company, and how she became Mrs. R.  On today’s show we look at the yearly ASHA Elections for president of ASHA and the ways to take better data. This week’s Informed SLP update, they look at how we conduct swallow studies.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.  The ASHA spotlight looks at the yearly ASHA Elections.  We also replace the Hot Take with a Hot Seat
 
The Discord is up and ready for people to interact with the crew 24/7 with a new website, www.discord.speechsciencepodcast.com.

SSPOD Shoutout: Do you know an SLP who deserves a digital fist bump or shout out?  We want to know your #SSPODSHOUTOUT, which is recognition for someone doing something awesome somewhere.  This week Mai Ling Chan and Lucas Steuber worked together to create a flipbook communicator for Covid-19 patients on a ventilator.       
 
SSPOD Due Process:  Do you have a complaint or need to vent, then you want to participate in the #SSPODDUEPROCESS. 
 
Article #1:  Yearly ASHA Elections are happening, again!  Matt, Michael, and Michelle review the candidates for President of the Association and discuss who may be the best to lead the association.    
 
Article #2: How much data do you need?  Is it reliable?  The crew look at an article from Kiwi Speech about the role good data plays in therapy and how to take better data. 
 
Interview: Say It Right™, based in Savannah, Georgia, was founded in 1999 by Christine Ristuccia, M.S., C.C.C.-S.L.P., an experienced school-based speech-language pathologist. Christine obtained her Master of Science degree in communicative disorders at the University of Redlands, Redlands, California.  Christine has extensive experience working with students dealing with a wide range of communicative disorders of all ages, from preschool through adulthood. She is also a nationally known speaker, having made numerous presentations at state speech and hearing organization events.
 
The Informed SLP: How can we better understand the stimulating effects of certain bolus types on swallow function? Barium might not be a required ingredient.
