About the show

The Neurodivergent Experience is a podcast about the funny, frustrating, messy and sometimes ridiculous realities of neurodivergent life. Hosted by Jordan James and Simon Scott, each episode takes some of Reddit’s most interesting stories, dilemmas, disasters and discussions — from posts explicitly about autism, ADHD and neurodivergence to those where there might be more going on beneath the surface — and looks at them through a neurodivergent lens. Relationships, work, family, communication, mental health, social expectations and everything in between are all up for discussion, as Jordan and Simon bring their own lived experiences to the conversation. Sometimes serious, sometimes chaotic and rarely in complete agreement, The Neurodivergent Experience goes beyond the Reddit comments to explore what these stories can tell us about how neurodivergent people experience the world. A part of The Autistic Culture Podcast Network, the first podcast network created by and for Autistic people to celebrate our culture, our voices, and our contributions to the world. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Visit www.autisticculturepodcastnetwork.com Hosted on Acast.
