S7 E2: Middle Fingers Up!

Oct 18 2024 80 mins

Usually Aimee comes with the rage, but today it was me. There was an article in the Chronicle of Higher Education that tried to limply argue that disabled students (specifically students with ADHD) are getting too many accommodations and it is a disservice to them! We ranted for about an hour of the hour and twenty minutes that this episode ended up being. I will not link to the CH

S7 E1: August is the Sunday of Months

Sep 03 2024 51 mins

We’re back! It’s season seven because these things are arbitrary like all this related to time, like what month we start school in the fall or what day of the week is the first day! This was recorded on the penultimate day of August, just before the long Labo(u)r Day weekend here in North America, and right around when those of us in the Northern Hemisphere start school

S6 E13: Is it ironic that the episode about professionalism is episode 13?

Jun 17 2024 80 mins

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 how to make it work consistently on the

S6 E12: Neurodivergent Hangover Cures

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 side-quests, and then talk about what we have been up to, and how we have

S6 E11: Maybe Try Writing It Down?

Apr 19 2024 36 mins

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 we can learn about materiality and embodiment even

S6 E10: SPRING ZOOMIES!

Mar 12 2024 55 mins

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 changing of the seasons impa

S6 E9: Writing the Neurodivergent YOU – The Guidebook, Part 2

Feb 23 2024 58 mins

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 the Jebruaries. Anyway, I have clearly gone on fou

S6 E8: Writing the Neurodivergent YOU – The Guidebook, Part 1

Feb 16 2024 50 mins

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 for you and then making note of it so that you can have your own, pers

S5 E7: Crip Knowledge

Jan 26 2024 53 mins

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 it is called crib knowledge!).

S5 E6: Aimée Gonna Aimée

Jan 19 2024 43 mins

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. Transcript, which AI has yet to be able to figure out really what we’re saying.
