100 dudes vs 1 gorilla—who wins? We spiral from that cursed thought into a full breakdown of horse fights, edible candy bars, forgotten movie comedies, and what it means to be a Three Musketeers in a Snickers world.

We smoked in the parking lot, hit record, and spiraled into everything from Catholicism and communion snacks to Muppet movie reboots and the guy who first rode a horse. Also: Lunchables, Easter eggs, and why the apple in Eden might’ve just sucked. Follow Mario Rodriguez:  https://www.instagram.com/mariorodriguezdoesntexist/ https://www.instagram.com/idiots__united/

This week on It's a Spectrum, we sit down with an autistic occupational therapist who works with clients from birth to adulthood. We dive deep into what OT actually is, how it helps autistic kids and adults alike, and how her own diagnosis shapes the way she supports families. We also talk about IEPs, labels like “high functioning,” how autism is (mis)understood, and why visibility matters. Oh, and yeah—Autism Speaks can kick rocks.

Saul Trujillo slides through to talk stand-up, voice acting, and snack-related shame. We get into frozen Cheetos wrapped in string cheese, bombing on stage (emotionally and professionally), and why cutting your own hair might be an autism side quest. Also: cats, church, cartoons, and eating like a raccoon in a Jack in the Box parking lot.

On this episode of Reydar, I catch up with Milan Patel, a comedian and content creator, as we reminisce about our unexpected first meeting—crashing his Portland going-away party in 2017. We get into the weird politics of Ryans vs. Brians, the questionable reign of red velvet cake, and why haunted houses are either terrifying or just a church trying to scare you straight. Plus, we talk horror movies, absurd Halloween costumes, and the art of a perfectly crafted 3D gag. Follow Milan Patel:
