If you didn’t think we had enough new information to warrant an entire part 2 on dyslexia, well, you’d be right, because despite the title, this episode is filled with quite a bit of fluffery, with some facts about dyslexia sprinkled in along the way. 

In part 2, Kristin educates us about the similarities and differences between dyslexia and ADHD, the real-world implications of having both, and why it’s important to know that you’re dyslexic, even if you can’t go back in a time machine and re-learn how to read.

Plus, Grace teaches you how to clean your weighted blankets, Kristin gets swept up in a Moxie parade, we chat about our current tv show, book, and podcast obsessions, and we finally give the people what they want with some always-popular red hot dog talk.
