Great list Aisling! I even found some new ones there along shared favourites. Interesting how us ND folks are all "different" in tolerances and sensitivities. I do love podcasts and have enjoyed learning from some these ones, and keep going back to them. For whole stretches of time upto months often I've just can't listen to podcasts or even audio books as my language processing is at its limits. During these times it's mostly ambient and instrumental music as lyrics can even be too much. I do look forward getting back to podcasts again gradually. They are such a rich resource.
Thanks so much Kevin! I find I'm similar when it comes to podcasts, they are reserved for very specific times during my day/week and outside of that I prefer music (often instrumental) or silence!
If you're just discovering & enjoying podcasts, might I also suggest an audiobook? 2024 was the year I got into audiobooks and they've kept me company through many difficult moments. I'm currently listening to Zadie Smith's The Fraud which is tremendous fun.
That's true, I have yet to dip my toe into the world of audiobooks, but I'm sure once I do, I'll be hooked!! Also I found out that Judith Butler read their most recent book 'Who's Afraid of Gender' so I might start with that! 😃
Thanks so much for including me on this list! Since you're also looking for active podcasts hosted by neurodivergent people of color, here are a few that I've listened to recently:
Thanks Aisling, I've followed some and look forward to checking them out... :)
Thanks Alan, happy listening!
