CARYN HERRING, ROISIN MCMANUS, and JOEL KORTE (the “Stuttertalk B Team”) discuss some of the challenges with stuttering around the holidays including dealing with family, parties, and inappropriate responses to stuttering. Later, they discuss how strange it can be when you encounter people from your past who are not familiar with the changes that you have made with stuttering, and it can be easy to slip back into old habits and routines.
Caryn tells an inspiring story about Sara MacIntyre who is featured in the StutterTalk book and has appeared on the podcast several times.
All B Team episodes are archived here.

Reuben Schuff and Joel Korte join Peter Reitzes to discuss crucial stuttering experiences in speech therapy as proposed by Charles Van Riper.
Dr. Van Riper’s list of 15 crucial stuttering experiences is archived here at The Stuttering Homepage. Some of the items we discuss from Van Riper’s list are:
Van Riper explained, “These are the crucial experiences which your therapy should provide for the person who stutters. Again and again you must seek to facilitate these basic experiences. These should be the goals which structure your therapy.”
An alternative title for this episode could be something Reuben said during the episode – Stuttering: A Collection of Avoidance Behaviors.
