Meet Robyn and Jamie in the first edition of their new podcast.

Once you've enjoyed the witty title about lots of seconds, you'll want to know what's in it.

This week they talk about how some autistic people measure their energy in spoons, sensory overload, how Jamie creates his independent life, cooking pizzas on top of a microwave (!?), going non-verbal, repeating things over and over (echolalia). And more. And more than that.

Basically, it's a talk show presented by two autistic people. It's insightful and it's funny. Enjoy.

What are you ‘obsessed’ with?

It’s episode two and Robyn and Jamie are keen to share their ‘special interests’ with you, and talk to callers on our phone-out (not a phone-in) about their passions.

Sometimes thought of as negative, autistic people often have the ability to seriously focus on things that interest them and this is why the geek image has emerged. These days it tends to be seen as a positive skill which some employers are lapping up.

From sci-fi to computers and Rubik’s Cubes to Underground trains – plus a few surprises along the way. Listen and enjoy.
