Links to Autism tests - again, DO NOT take these test results as a SUBSTITUTE for a formal diagnosis by a trained professional. On the other hand, these tests are VERY reliable, so if they do indicate you have autism, you very likely do. Therefore, the advice of St. John is to take the tests, and then take those results and find a professional with whom you can show and discuss them:

Link to C1E35: The Floppy Show (forgive the production quality - which was much worse in 2018. But production quality value aside, this is still a really great collection of music - all from computer games! Also the Ch 1 intros were much more anemic back then, and wouldn’t improve until January 2022 - C1E61! But it’s still a close enough approximation to today’s Channel 1 episodes that if you’re new to Ch 1, it’ll still give you a very good idea of what the show is all about):
