LIVE SPECIAL Part One: Just Don't
<p>We're back with the first part of our recent live episodes recorded at Gosforth Civic Theatre, and this one is all about giving yourself permission to stop doing things that make life harder than it needs to be.</p><p>From supermarkets and recycling systems to forms, handshakes, Christmas dinner and social expectations, Kate, Nic and the audience share their own personal "just don't" moments. It's a funny, honest conversation about sensory needs, executive function, masking, and the small acts of rebellion that can make everyday life a bit easier.</p><p>A huge thank you to everyone who came along and made the evening such a brilliant event. The audience played a big part in this episode and you'll hear plenty of their stories throughout.</p><p>We've got Part 2 coming soon, and we'd love to hear your ideas for future podcast topics. If there's something you'd like us to explore, let us know.</p><p>Recorded live at Gosforth Civic Theatre. </p>

Word Stims
<p>How many things do you do every day without realising they might actually be stims? </p><p> </p><p>In this episode, Kate returns from running a neurodivergent writing retreat in Scotland after accidentally blowing everyone’s minds with a session on language stims. What starts as a chat about repeating words quickly turns into a much bigger conversation about humming, echolalia, accents, family phrases and all the small things people do to regulate themselves without even noticing. </p><p> </p><p>Kate and Nic talk about the ways stimming gets misunderstood through a diagnostic lens, why so many people grow up hiding it and how certain phrases, songs and repeated words can become their own form of comfort. </p><p> </p><p>There’s also a genuinely brilliant detour into musicals as communication, the phrase “hydrate or die straight”, and an unexpected history lesson on the gin crisis. </p><p> </p><p>If you’ve ever repeated a word because it sounds satisfying, communicated entirely through song lyrics or suddenly realised your family all hum, whistle or bounce in their seats… this one might feel very familiar.</p>

Big fish, Little Fish, Autistic Box: Our Delayed April Episode
<p>A quick note before this one: this episode was originally recorded as the April podcast for Autism Acceptance Month, but due to an upload error, it’s now landing in May. So if you hear Nic and Kate referring to “this month”, that’s why. </p><p> </p><p>They also kick things off with a reminder that their live show is happening this Thursday, 21st May at Gosforth Civic Theatre, where you can see them in the flesh!</p><p> </p><p>This episode tackles the growing conversations around overdiagnosis, “profound autism” and whether the spectrum has become “too wide.” Kate and Nic unpack why these debates can feel so exhausting for the neurodivergent community and why dividing autistic people into smaller and smaller categories helps systems far more than it helps actual people. </p><p> </p><p>At the heart of this episode is a simple message: autistic people are not boxes. They’re people. </p>
