Hello and welcome to episode 7 of the I Don't Sound Autistic podcast! This is part 2 of my chat with Paula, and this time we actually talk about autism! We cover topics such as how she feels as an allistic (non-autistic) person involved in helping with social media, to mental health, to our idea for a new t-shirt campaign! 

This episode also features my ex-girlfriend as a special guest, despite her not being in the show, as she bizarrely comes up a lot! I hope you enjoy!

This is episode 6 of I Don't Sound Autistic and I am very excited to have you back! My guest on this episode is my good friend, Paula, and we talk about all sorts of things but don't quite manage to get onto autism. The second part of the conversation (the part including our talk about ASD) will be the next episode, but I thought this was a good way to get to know me and Paula. I promise that our conversation is interesting and funny, and maybe you will be able to relate more to what I talk about next episode with more of an understanding of who I am outside of being autistic!

I hope you enjoy!

Hello and welcome to episode 5 of I Don't Sound Autistic! Today I am joined by my best friend, Soren! Our conversation goes everywhere, right from how we met to my awful Russian language abilities! Have a listen and I hope you enjoy it!

Welcome back to episode 4! This time I am joined by absolutely no one, as time was not on my side in the past couple of weeks. Instead, this is a shorter episode where I just explain who I am, in case you are new, and I give some information about what the podcast actually is. 

I also give some great dinosaur facts about Parasaurolophus and Pachycephalosaurus (these are the correct spellings in case you want to copy them into a search bar to find pictures).

Enjoy!

Hello and welcome to episode 3 of I Don't Sound Autistic! My special guest today is my very own mother, Clare! (It would probably be a bit strange if it was YOUR mother.) We discuss what I was like as a child and whether the signs were there in my youth—about me being autistic that is! We touch on topics such as:

- Which family members float and which ones sink

- Whether I decide who is most boring in a conversation and stop listening to them

- What it was like for my Mum raising an autistic child

If any of those sound interesting then I recommend giving the episode a listen! Even if they don't sound interesting, I would still have a listen because we also talk about other things, such as advice for parents of autistic kids and adults. Enjoy!

Hello, welcome to episode 2 of I Don't Sound Autistic! This is a continuation of the conversation Gemma, Georgie, Matilde and I were having in episode 1, and so if you have not listened to that one then I recommend you do that first. Our conversation took some rather random turns but we touch on all the topics you have surely been waiting to hear about on a podcast: asparagus, vaccines and why we like it when people show us basic human decency!

For more of Gemma's rambling please find her on twitter: @quxet1

Enjoy the episode!

p.s. the next episode will not be with Matilde, Gemma and Georgie and instead I will be speaking with another guest about how our relationship is affected by my ASD! This is due to wanting to get lots of different perspectives as well as not wanting to exploit my friends and their time! Don't worry, they will be back though (hopefully!) for every other episode!

Welcome to the first episode of I Don't Sound Autistic! This podcast is an extension of the blog I Don't Look Autistic (see what I did there!) and there will be fortnightly episodes coming out for you to enjoy at your leisure. My name is Sarah, I am autistic, and in this episode I am joined by 3 of my autistic friends —Georgie, Gemma and Matilde— as we talk about being diagnosed, our autistic identities and much, much more. Join us for a conversation that is thought provoking, funny and appropriately serious when necessary.
