Atypical: The Podcast
A podcast by atypical people looking at the world from a different point of view. Primarily neurodivergent, but we also have a scattering of LGBTQ+ people and thoughts.
New episode every fortnight and occasional "After Dark" episodes when we find them!
Atypical: The Podcast
Travelling whilst autistic, doom scrolling and a new K-Pop band?
With the return of the erstwhile Kim we discuss travelling as a neurodivergent person, using social media and, in true ADHD style, we distract outselves for a lengthy (and now much edited down) discussion of which social media platform sounds like a K-Pop band.
We did also discuss some of the latest news around autism diagnosis and touch on a few issues around this.
As promised, some links for you:
