The community that was created on Facebook and floated across other social media platforms, is now on the air! Figuratively speaking, of course. This podcast will be talking about the articles posted to the Facebook page, have guest speakers, and talk about personal experiences. We'll also be touching on other difficult to talk about topics other than Autism.
Ep. 36 - A new co-host, blue buckets, a night society & Autistic resources
I'm baa-ack! Hopefully. Work and life have just been a thing since earlier this year and I'm learning how to juggle everything again. I do have a new co-host who is also one of my significant others @fierblade. In this episode we're just trying to get back into the swing of things but we talk about famous Autistic people, the blue jack-o-lantern buckets that are back for the spooky season, and some other Autistic non-profit communities out there! We also talk about learning to love and accept yourself for who you are as you learn who you are.

Ep. 35 - Skimming ADHD with Em
Today Em, host of the podcast The Phoenix Cast (https://www.thepca.org/phoenix-cast) came and talked with me a bit about ADHD and how it can even relate to Autism. We had to cut this episode a bit short, but they will be back for another episode talking about their own life hacks that they use with ADHD!

Bonus Ep. 29 - Independence Day History & SILENT Fireworks (they exist!)
Well, it's that time of year again. Another year has come and gone to this particular noisy and awful month (sound-wise at least). Today I talk a bit about the history of Independence day and learned that silent fireworks actually do exist and they're just as expensive as the regular loud ones that traumatize people and animals this time of year. It was fun actually learning more about the history surrounding this day/event and maybe by next year (though I won't hold my breath) there will be more sensory-friendly fireworks popping about!
Have a wonderful holiday, stay safe, have a wonderful existence & see you later!
