Manage episode 522737338 series 2950964
Hi Pod...Where Ya Been?
James Guttman returns after a long break to reset the show and refocus on honest stories about autism and respect. We dig into myths around RPM, the “you don’t look autistic” trope, and why dignity beats spectacle every time.
• why the format shift matters and keeping it ad-free
• curiosity vs offense when asking about autism
• why “you don’t look autistic” misses the point
• RPM’s (Rapid Prompting Method) place, limits, and consent
• the barbecue incident and speaking for someone
• pushing back on “nonverbal understands everything”
• rejecting telepathy myths and miracle promises
• dignity over content and never filming meltdowns
• parents as experts on their own children
• how we’ll handle topics and questions going forward
