In today’s episode Greg and Patrick talk about that sweet spot between panel designs and time series designs, intensive longitudinal data, both the logistical and analytical challenges but more importantly its tremendous potential.  Along the way they also discuss camp fire face-plants, fear of horses, your spare eyelid, polishing your Nobel Prize, ripples in a pond, lick’m-sir, August 14th, the basketball effect, Southwest boarding number B14, high school math teacher apologies, open mic night, and umbrella shopping.
