LaughingmonkeymusicEp 618 John Elder Robison – Music, Autism, and a Life Engineered for UnderstandingIn this episode we dive into an inspiring and wide-ranging conversation with John Elder Robison, exploring how music and autism intersect in his world. We talk about the ways autistic people experience sound, creativity, patterns, and emotional expression, and how today’s understanding of autism has expanded far beyond old stereotypes. From sensory perception to communication, identity, and the broader neurodiversity movement, we touch on the topics people are discussing right now—what’s changing, what still needs work, and how music continues to be a powerful bridge between worlds.John’s story is remarkable.

After engineering sound effects for Kiss and designing early video games, he built a thriving luxury automotive service business by rejecting the dealership playbook. In this episode, John explains why leasing models create service nightmares, how his autism gave him unusual focus for complex mechanical problems, and why his customers thank him for $10,000 repairs while dealership customers rage over $1,000 bills. He breaks down the fundamental difference between selling products and selling expertise, why throwing away specialists for cheaper options backfires as you move upscale, and how his clients called during the pandemic...

Maja makes excellent points about the need for professionals to stay current in the knowledge about presentations of autism (e.g., internalized and externalized) and implications for the school system are discussed. It is a good reminder that diagnostic criteria are working definitions, changing over time, and need to reflect community voices and experiences. Thing(s) of...

Autistic FM#11 - Autistic Thinking by Brian Beames: A Review by HajeIn this episode of Autistic FM, we dive into Brian Beames’ controversial book, Autistic Thinking, which boldly claims to have found the “cure” for autism. Spoiler: it hasn’t. Haje dissects the book’s misguided ideas—ranging from equating autism to a literary invention to suggesting it can be “cured” by simply changing self-perception. The discussion not only critiques Beames’ pseudoscientific assertions but also explores the harm such narratives can inflict on the autistic community. This episode is both a takedown of dangerously narrow-minded book - and a celebration of meaningful works that embrace neurodiversity. Haje offers his ow...
