Episode 8 – Plot Twist: Executive Dysfunction Won
This episode was supposed to be about executive dysfunction… but then executive dysfunction took over and we didn’t plan anything—or edit anything, either. What you’re hearing is raw, real, and completely unfiltered.
Instead of a structured topic, we asked each other some weird, fun, and surprisingly honest questions about autism, stimming, masking, comfort foods, and more.
We also break down two autism-related news stories:
🧠 A new study linking autism to early-onset Parkinson’s,
and
📉 The MAHA report mess, where multiple fake citations—and possibly ChatGPT—ended up in an official government health report.
Listen in for a behind-the-scenes look at how we manage life with autism and neurodivergence, filled with humor, authenticity, and insightful moments. Whether you're on the spectrum or supporting someone who is, you're sure to find something relatable in this candid and unscripted episode.
It’s real. It’s chaotic. It’s unedited.
It’s Apparently Autistic.
