    A Tickly Cringe: 23rd June 2024

    Blood tests, theme parks, and theories this week as Chloe and Kieran have been riding rollercoasters, mourning the loss of Google Podcasts, and getting jabbed by needles - not at the same time, luckily. Question for this week: what's the most embarrassing thing you've ever thrown up on? People, places, things, it doesn't matter - send your answers to @theautisticexperience on Instagram! Next episode will come out on the 7th July! In the meantime, leave a rating and review on whatever platform you're listening to!

    Like an Eagle Flying the Co-op: 9th June 2024

    Tangents ahoy this week as Kieran gets left on a coach, and the pair have been off to see The Eagles in concert! Also!

    Top Level of the Theatre Cake: 26th May 2024

    Chloe and Kieran have been to the theatre! It's not all sunshine and kittens, though, as they've come across something we've just coined [during this sentence] as the "autistic sensory paradox". Is it a good thing? Is it a bad thing? Find out for yourself by listening to this episode! Next episode is on the 9th June, so in the meantime we'd really appreciate a nice review on whatever podcast platform you're listening on, and you can go follow us on Instagram @theautisticexperience.

    No Singing, Only Cake: 12th May 2024

    Chloe and Kieran have been on a cruise! Yeah, we know, they're traditionally the realm of old people, but can cruise holidays actually be a hidden gem for autistic and ADHD folk on the hunt for a stress-free holiday? If you've never been on a cruise, or even considered the idea, have a listen to this episode to see what it's like! You can also follow us on Instagram @theautisticexperience and share your experiences! Next episode will release on the 26th May!

    Who's Got Time for Compression? 28th April 2024

    Do you know about the ADHD tax? Because Chloe's really been paying hers! She's managed to lose her earplugs, so we reminisce a bit about all the other times she's lost something important-- it happens a lot. Also in the episode: Chloe's hurt her knee! Cows! And unfortunately, a bit of sad news. Go follow us on Instagram @theautisticexperience - Chloe's promised to actually put some photos up, so we'll see how that turns out... Next episode comes out on the 12th May!

    Oh No, Consequences: 14th April 2024

    Kieran and Chloe have both been off doing new stuff this week, much to the displeasure of our old friend, executive dysfunction. We figured it would be a good idea to chat about each of our experiences, how they're similar, how they're different (I think we can all guess one major factor that's different between K &C), and trying to figure out the ideal type of hobby for the autistic/ADHD brain. Believe it or not, we manage it. Well, basically. You can get in contact with us via our Instagram page @theautisticexperience, and as usual we'd very much appreciate a nice rating and review on whatever podcast platform you're listening on!

    The Great Referral Race: 31st March 2024

    This week, Chloe and Kieran take a look at NHS England's announcement of an ADHD taskforce.. whatever that means. In other news, our own ADHD referrals are finally starting to lace up their skates-- but how long will we be waiting? Also, the washing machine's broken. Also also, there's some hot takes on the Easter Bunny.
