Summary
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.
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!
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.
At the heart of this episode is a simple message: autistic people are not boxes. They’re people.
