Ep. 49 - Autistic Intersectional Experiences (with Ryan Perez) Bruce and Kara chat with Ryan Perez about navigating life, the diagnostic process, accessing resources, and barriers experienced as a black bi/demisexual/poly autistic man. We also talk about disassociation, anti-miscenegation laws, the intertwined nature of racism, ableism, and other forms of oppression, and the King of Pop.

This episode comes 8 months after it was recorded so we promise, there is no snow in Calgary, Vancouver, or Toronto at the moment!

Guest Bio: Ryan Perez is a bi/demisexual/poly, autistic creator with ADHD (AuDHD), navigating the world through art, comedy, and storytelling. He is also a single dad, performance and well-being coach, and keynote speaker who believes that Radical Expression, Acceptance, and Joy aren’t luxuries—they’re survival strategies for building lives that work. Ryan also works as a media producer with deep roots in rap, comedy, and community activism and has over 300,000 followers and millions of views across social platforms. He speaks with the Speakers Bureau of Canada, hosts the Pathway to the Heart podcast, and writes books that move people—from the raw memoir I'm Autistic, Bich! to the socially charged novel Frozen by Light. His work helps people and organizations build adaptive, inclusive cultures driven by authenticity and joy.
