    The Power of Storytelling with Author Ben Mann

    This week on Asking Autistics, we’re diving into a world where storytelling meets leveling up. Author Ben Mann joins us to talk about his new book, Spectralux: Journey to Bastion—a LitRPG novel crafted especially for neurodivergent kids. We explore how blending immersive narratives with game mechanics can do more than just entertain—it can build self-confidence, foster understanding, and help children with ADHD and autism see themselves as the heroes of their own stories. ******************* Follow Asking Autistics, Lindsey, Riki, and our guest: Ben Mann: ♦FB - https://www.facebook.com/BenMannAuthor ♦IG - https://www.instagram.com/benmannauthor ♦Website - https://www.spectraluxbook.com ♦Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Journey-Bastion-Spectralux-Book-1-ebook/dp/B0FP2WGS3G Asking Autistics: ♦FB - https://www.facebook.com/askingautisticspodcast ♦IG - https://www.instagram.com/askingautisticspodcast Riki: ♦FB - https://www.facebook.com/reberrabonbon ♦IG - https://www.instagram.com/reberrabon_bon Lindsey: ♦FB - https://www.facebook.com/brainsandspoons ♦IG - https://www.instagram.com/brainsandspoons ♦Website - https://www.brainsandspoons.com Media Inquires: askingautisticspodcast@gmail.com

    "Horsegirls" and the Importance of Community

    In this episode of Asking Autistics, Riki interviews actress Lillian Carrier, who offers an in-depth exploration of the film Horsegirls and the character she plays, Margarita, an autistic woman navigating the complexities of adult life. They examine the film's portrayal of autistic experience, particularly its attention to the intricacies of familial relationships, the pressures of societal expectation, and the vital role of community and support systems. They consider what it means to tell autistic stories with authenticity, addressing both the progress made and the barriers that persist for disabled actors within the film industry. They also reflect on the evolution of autism representation in media, the importance of embracing femininity on one's own terms, and the quiet power of self-acceptance. ******************* Follow Asking Autistics, Riki, Lindsey, and our guest: Lillian Carrier: ♦IG - https://www.instagram.com/LillianCarrier ♦X - https://x.com/lilliancarrier0 Horsegirls ♦Horsegirls - https://sumerian.com/pictures/movies/horsegirls/ ♦Autism Sensitivity Coordinator: Chloe Estelle - ⁠https://www.instagram.com/chloeestelleinyellow ♦Producer: Alex Plank - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/alexplank ♦Singer (Margarita’s Theme Song): Zelma Stone - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/zelmastonemusic Asking Autistics: ♦FB - https://www.facebook.com/askingautisticspodcast ♦IG - https://www.instagram.com/askingautisticspodcast Riki: ♦FB - https://www.facebook.com/reberrabonbon ♦IG - https://www.instagram.com/reberrabon_bon/ Lindsey: ♦FB - https://www.facebook.com/brainsandspoons ♦IG - https://www.instagram.com/brainsandspoons/ ♦Website - https://www.brainsandspoons.com/ Media Inquires: askingautisticspodcast@gmail.com
