Each month JAACAP highlights a selected article found within the pages of the Journal by providing a podcast interview with the author. Tune in regularly to this feature of JAACAP, where we strive for a relaxed 'fireside chat' atmosphere in which authors can share aspects of their science that we are less often privy to. Podcasts are typically 15 to 20 minutes in length.

  • Helpful and interesting but poor audio

    Great information shared succinctly! The only downside to this resource is the immense variability in audio quality from the hosts and guests.

  • Great but too short

    They are great episodes, but they are definitely too short. If they were 30 minutes that would be much better than the average 15 minute. Otherwise they’re great to listen to and very educational.

  • Excited to see this but unlistenable

    As a clinical psychologist, I was excited to see a podcast dedicated to disseminating scientific findings in a bite-size form. However, the audio is such poor quality it is completely unlistenable. Additionally, the episode I just attempted to listen to features an author who is completely undecipherable when they speak. I am tempted to send them a $100 microphone so this would be listenable - in terms of the audio quality at least.

  • Really great resource

    I really like being able to listen to these insightful, brief interviews that not only communicate the main idea of each paper but give you extra thoughts of the authors, who are the experts in their fields. Having them on my smart phone makes it so easy to keep up with important new data.
