  • The Answer is 42
    Jun 26 2025

    It's time for episode 42.

    This one’s about AI...again. But can you blame us? From helping with legal letters and holiday hot tub instructions, to identifying flowers mid-walk and giving specific, heartfelt compliments on funeral outfits, AI’s proving oddly perfect for neurodivergent brains.

    We talk friendship, therapy, ethics, awkward Roman queens, and what happens when AI gets philosophical about the meaning of life (spoiler: it’s still 42).

  • Death
    Jun 19 2025

    In this episode, Kate and Nic talk about death - how we process it (or don’t), how society expects us to react, and why it can feel particularly complex for neurodivergent people.

    They cover everything from scripts that don’t land, to overwhelming grief etiquette, to why “I’m sorry for your loss” sometimes just doesn’t cut it.

    It’s honest, thoughtful, awkward in places, and quietly funny in others - just like real conversations about death often are.

  • Justice, Truth and Mercy
    Jun 12 2025

    In Episode 40 of Neurotypicals: Don’t Juggle Chainsaws, we explore the idea that things like truth, justice, and mercy aren’t just abstract ideals, they’re deeply felt emotions for many neurodivergent people.

    Kate and Nic reflect on the strong sense of right and wrong that so often shapes autistic identity, activism, and everyday life. From personal ethics to social expectations, this episode gets right into what drives us and why it matters.
