In recent years, significant progress has been made in both disability rights and

LGBTQ+ visibility. However, the intersection of these identities remains an area that is often overlooked.

On today’s show, we welcome Krispjin Parsons, a gay man on the autism spectrum, who shares his personal journey navigating life at the crossroads of queerness and neurodiversity. Through candid reflections on both the challenges and triumphs he’s experienced, Krispjin sheds light on the often-invisible nature of this intersectional identity.

This episode explores the richness and complexity within both the LGBTQ+ and disabled communities, and highlights the importance of recognizing and celebrating the full spectrum of lived experiences.

This program is hosted and produced by Jacob Stanton with editing assistance from Denny Daughters and Dominick Trevethan.
