I’ve been thinking a lot about professionalism and how it is used to hide other, less…socially acceptable -isms, including ableism. How many of us who are neurodivergent have been told, explicitly or implicitly, that we aren’t professional enough? Otter.ai is being a pain again, so as soon as they figure out how SSL works or… Read more S6 E13: Is it ironic that the episode about professionalism is episode 13?
-
It’s that time of the year for us academics: THE END OF THE ACADEMIC YEAR. What does that mean? It means that there is a rush of events and experiences and expectations that can be both enjoyable AND taxing to us neurodivergent folks. So Aimée and I forget to introduce ourselves, go on three different… Read more S6 E12: Neurodivergent Hangover Cures

Aimée was name-dropped in a new Taylor Swift song, but that isn’t actually what the episode is about. What it is about is thinking (quickly! This is our shortest episode that isn’t just me addressing you and wishing you a sappy new year!) about the difference between reading a book, taking hand-written notes, and what… Read more S6 E11: Maybe Try Writing It Down?
-
I swear, it’s only been a few days, and I completely forgot what we talked about for this episode. Finally, Otter.ai Insights proved useful to remind me what happened. We’ve talked about Spring Fever before, almost exactly two years ago. What’s changed? Well, we’re actually a little but better-adjusted and more attuned to how the… Read more S6 E10: SPRING ZOOMIES!
-
Second verse, same as the first, a little bit louder and a little bit worse! Look, it’s Friday afternoon, GarageBand was being weird, I’ve done nothing but tedious tasks today, and it’s been a stressful week for me, personally. (Everyone is fine, it’s all fine, we’re all fine.) And I have a bad case of… Read more S6 E9: Writing the Neurodivergent YOU – The Guidebook, Part 2
-
The title is a mouthful. The podcast actually has some structure, with a build in cut point for part two that doesn’t involve me going incoherent. We have talked a great length about how advice meant for neurotypical people just doesn’t work for us, but how do you go about figuring out what DOES work… Read more S6 E8: Writing the Neurodivergent YOU – The Guidebook, Part 1

This was supposed to be what the last episode was about, but we took WAY too long to get here (and I am desperately trying to find where Aimée finally says it in the episode, but then gave up and just said it in the intro I recorded). Crip knowledge. Learn from it! Transcript (where… Read more S5 E7: Crip Knowledge
-
Well, this episode went so far off the rails that it had to be two episodes. Aimée tells the MOST AIMÉE STORY EVER, and we think about how all the things that we were told that were wrong with us maybe weren’t so wrong after all? And, again, sorry if we ignored you on Instagram.… Read more S5 E6: Aimée Gonna Aimée
-
Ahem. We’re back! We rested. And our rest doesn’t look like other people’s rest, but ALSO, we’re finding ourselves resting for VERY different reasons than other people seem to rest, and how we used to rest, which wasn’t very restful at all at all. I realize now that the title might be misleading, that we… Read more S6 E5: STOP RESTING SO OTHER PEOPLE CAN STEAL YOUR THUNDER
-
Aimée is in a MOOD. We have less time to do the things we are good at because we are being required to do more and more things that we, as neurodivergent people, are terrible at. This may be controversial, but why should have have to do things that we never had to before, were… Read more S6 E4: I Shouldn’t Have To Do This
-
Sue, this one is for you. I still didn’t look up what ADHD is in French. Which, MIRACLE. But also we’ve been busy. We talk in this episode about BIG FEELINGS. BIIIIIIIIIGGGGGG FEEEEEEEEEEEELINGS. We have them, you have them, we talk about them. We make no promises about when E4 will drop, but trust us,… Read more S6 E3: Hey Sue, We’re Still Here!
-
Since this is our 6th season and 85th episode, Aimée and I decided it was time to reconnect with our past selves as expressed by past episodes, and where we hope we (and you) dear listeners go in the future. We’ve even set an intention already for another episode next week! Also, we need a… Read more S6 E2: Looking Back, Looking Forward
-
…or WE ARE BACK EVERYONE! Because time is a construct and so too are seasons of any given podcast (or tv show) this seemed like a good moment to start Season 6. Aimée shares what she did over the summer, and more importantly, what she discovered about herself and writing. Spoiler alert:…NAH, I won’t spoil… Read more S6 E1: What We Did Over Summer Vacation
-
LOOK! Images! Show notes! Aimée and I talk about divergent thinking and how it is both great and awful, like most things when you’re neurodivergent. S4 E19: Spring Fever, ADHD-Style SIR Ken Robinson and Divergent Thinking. Wait, what else was I supposed to share in the show notes? Thirsty Traveler? Apparently it aired on Food… Read more S5 E11: Divergent Thinking, For Better or Worse
-
Come to learn the origin of jazz hands. Stay for a useful metaphor for neurodivergence. Also, hear about my bad day. And why Aimée is wearing a baseball cap. Transcript!
-
Hey, we’re back! For now! And we talk about how important it is that our brains get “fuck around time.” And how work doesn’t often look like work when you are neurodivergent. Seriously, though, what do you do to rest one part of your brain so you can be “productive”? Transcript!
-
LOL, I was supposed to have this out last Friday and I am barely going to get it out before this Friday. A listener asked us to do an episode about how to survive college as someone who is neurodivergent. So we did that. I have nothing clever to add. Transcript!

Hey everyone, your friendly neighborhood neurodivergent podcasters here. It’s been a while, and while we didn’t make any promises as to when we were coming back after the holidays, we never intended it to be THIS long between episodes. Like we every do, but that’s life AMIRIGHT? In this episode, Aimée and I (and while… Read more S5 E7: Hey, Did You Know There Are Levels Between 0 and 11?

Hey everyone, it’s been a year for your favorite neurodivergent academic podcasters. Aimée and I did manage to get together and record one last episode for 2022. It’s about all the things we are grateful for, and we decided to release it on the longest night of the year (for those of us in the… Read more S5 E6: A Winter Solstice Gift
-
Ahem. We’re back. It’s been…all entirely too much. We talk about how we are trying to reframe everything that has been happening to us and how we are reacting to it. But 2022 can still suck it. Seriously. Fuck this year. We appreciate you all for sticking with us. <3 Transcript.
