We’re very pleased to annouce our new podcast series Wise Counsel , hosted by David Van Nuys, Ph.D.

In order to make it easy to listen to Wise Counsel and keep each episode straight, we have created a new Wise Counsel Weblog . Each entry in this new weblog will be devoted to a single podcast episode. Each entry will describe a podcast episode and also offer an embedded audio player so that you easily can listen to the podcast online. A comments section, located at the bottom of the weblog pages, enables anyone who wants to to comment on what they have heard.

Our first episode, featuring a conversation with Dr. John Drimmer of UCLA on Positive Psychology has been posted to the new Wise Counsel Weblog and is ready to be listened to now.
