Weirds of a Feather: An AuDHD-Adjacent Podcast

Ep. 79: Decision Fatigue–Pig Bonanza


Listen Later

If you change your mind, we’re the first in line, honey, we’re still free, just as long as you don’t ask us to decide what’s for dinner.

 

In this ABBA-backed episode, Kristin is taking a chance on herself and diving into the psychology behind decision fatigue. She’s discussing what it is, why it happens, how it impacts AuDHDers who already struggle with executive dysfunction, and some ways to avoid it that don’t involve just eating pasta for every single meal (although that’s always a valid option, we don’t judge). 

 

Plus, we’re tossing around the proverbial pigskin as we ponder about kidney transplants, play Susan’s favorite game, “Is It Cannibalism?”, question the existence of radish people, and more.
