Rain Man w. Eric Michael Garcia You Are Good

We discuss all things Rain Man—from the plentitude of dad issues to the many things it got wrong about autism—with journalist Eric Michael Garcia. Bonus: We also love on Oliver Sacks super, super hard.
Eric's book We Are Not Broken: Changing the Conversation About Autism (https://www.hmhbooks.com/shop/books/Were-Not-Broken/9781328587848) will be out later this year. You can find Eric on Twitter (https://twitter.com/EricMGarcia) here.
We made a playlist to accompany this episode! (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6QiQqhSgppoRqfXZgkw7UI?si=yILZPbNWQfujwnwT2rtjkw) It's comprised of songs that come to mind when we all think about this movie.
Why Are Dads (https://www.podpage.com/why-are-dads/) is a show in which hosts Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens.
