Listen "Autistic Coded Characters "
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Neurotypicals Don’t Juggle Chainsaws, Kate Fox and Nic King finally tackle a topic they’ve been meaning to dive into for ages—autistic-coded characters. And what better way to do it than through Patience, Channel 4’s new show featuring an explicitly autistic protagonist played by autistic actor Ella Maisy Purvis? Kate and Nic break down what Patience gets right, where it stumbles, and how it compares to the long history of autistic-coded but never explicitly autistic characters. They also dig into the ongoing issue of autistic representation in media.
