We’re not all a little autistic
As a low support needs autistic person, I am exhausted of hearing that “everyone is a little autistic.” They aren’t. You’re either autistic or you’re not, and if you are, you fall somewhere on the spectrum. So having a whole episode about “awkward” people that takes pains to point out that these people are nearly autistic except not is reinforcing this misconception. Add to that, having the episode point out how many amazing things these “nearly autistic” awkward people can do while making clear they aren’t autistic just reinforces that you don’t think autistic people are capable of the same. And guess what? A lot of us are. And a lot of the awkward people you are talking about are also probably auctually autistic. Do better.

Brilliantly put together. A great way if presenting the Ted talks in a podcast friendly format. All the visuals from the talks are described by the presenter to keep you up to speed. Make some more please!

I love most of the talks Ted puts out, but the organization itself is a creepy cult.
