Ologies with Alie Ward https://www.alieward.com/ologies
Alie Ward (an absolute gem) interviews a different expert every week, ie asks “smart ologists not-smart questions about their professional obsessions.” Highly engaging and entertaining.
Second this one! So good!
I wish I could listen to more podcasts. When I do, I always enjoy it, but I haven’t been able to establish this as a habit… yeah, because of the ADHD ;)
ADHD podcasts
Ologies with Alie Ward - episodes on ADHD https://www.alieward.com/ologies/adhd
Fantastic podcast that did a two-part series on ADHD with guests Dr. Russel Barkley, René Brooks of Black Girl Lost Keys, Jessica McCabe of How to ADHD, and Jahla Osborne
The Complex https://www.jamesochoa.com/the-complex-podcast
Serial storyline format in brief episodes that shares knowledge about ADHD in a unique and engaging way
ASD podcasts
Neurodivergence podcasts/ podcasts about both ADHD & ASD
Hey, not sure which category to post this under, but ABC Australia’s radio show “All in the Mind” covers general mental health topics, including ASD, ADHD, but also things like shame, thrill seeking, depression, etc. each episode is 30 minutes, so they don’t do deep dives into complex topics, but it’s good coverage for someone looking to learn more on various topics and broaden their horizons.
