We have a very special guest on the podcast today! Demi Burnett was the most controversial cast member of The Bachelor season 23 even before she came out as autistic (the neurotypicals always know anyway). We asked her all about her experience on The Bachelor, sorting fact from fiction, and what it's like to be autistic on reality TV.

We watched another episode of Love on the Spectrum and emerged with our mental stability only somewhat intact. This show is bad! The cast and the autistic community in general deserve better.

Season 4: The Ultimatum: Queer Love

We made ourselves watch another episode of Love on the Spectrum and it led to lots of introspection about autism, comorbidities, social skills, first loves, consent, and our opinions on whether or not you should talk to the stylist the whole time while getting your hair cut. Let's talk about episode 2! Do we dare watch episode 3? How much more infantilization can we stand to witness? Only time will tell.
