    E12 Fixing or Finding Authenticity in Disability (You Don't Want to Sound Like Hillary Clinton)

    Another Tangent hits the airwaves and this time Rocco and Christy are talking about "Fixing". What is it? What does it mean in the context of disability? How do we keep from making disabled people feel wrong, or broken? And what helps us find authentic, empowering community? Jump in to this topic with us as we stumble upon some wisdom--and a little chaos, and a little laughter, and a little weirdness. We look at some models of disability, some ways to address access needs, and some personal stories that tie in to it all.

    The second half of a fantastic conversation with Suzannah Weiss! We jump back in to chatting about neurodiversity and dating, relationships and sex. There is so much good content, and some hard content so trigger warnings, y'all. How to break out of societal boundaries, do we forgive people who have violated our boundaries, and what do we do when people don't seem to respect that we can't meet the expectations society sets for us. Lots of wisdom. Lots of laughs. Lots of concerns about when we will break for lunch. It is all in this episode! Grab a slice, and give it a listen! (Seriously, you'll be hungry by the end. We all were. Even the dog.) Part 2 of 2!

    Suzannah Weiss, author of Subjectified: Becoming a Sexual Subject joins us to talk about her book and so. much. more. In fact, we had so much to talk about that we are continuing the conversation in the next episode. We discuss some challenging topics, so a warning to those who might want to steer clear of this one or seek out supports, or listen with friends. Sex and neurodivergence start us off but that leads to stories and statistics of sexual coercion, assaults, and how we can begin to shape our own behaviors to stay safer and state needs. There is a lot to unpack about how disability diagnosis can lead to damaging situations. But we also have a lot of quirky fun as we dive into this subject matter! Christy loses her train of thought. Rocco takes us on a tangent. And Suzannah asks some really good questions of our hosts, turning the tangent tables on us! So get ready for a great time with the person we may just make our resident sexologist, and move her on into the studio (aka Christy's guest room) because we are smitten. (Christy is. Christy is smitten. Rocco is happily married, y'all.)

    Dr. Deana Herrman, Professor, Physical Therapist, and Parent joins the discussion today and brings so much knowledge and perspective around how we speak. We talk about expertise, lived experience, extending our practice to include social determinants of health and so much more. Y'all Christy is still the loudest, but Deana is the fastest speaker we have had on the program and she is packing in the information like a Gilmore Girl on fire, so get ready. And speaking of loud, there may be yelling--be prepared for that as well. Apparently some passionate feels come out at the intersection of disability and healthcare! Who knew?

    E7 Ageism and Disability (Immortal Like The Highlander)

    A tangent full of tangents explores the topic of age and how it relates to disability. We touch on milestones, mobility aids, and making assumptions and the way these relate to ableism as Rocco and Christy jump into this discussion. Learn more about the hosts as they share a bit about their personal journeys with illness in youth and how that contributed to their views on disability today. And, of course, be ready for some wild and wacky side conversation, because we can't seem to get through an episode without it--the name of the podcast says it all, folks. Tangents Away!

    E6 Disabled Researchers Part 2 (Reciprocal Co-humaning?)

    Round Two with Dr. Robin Arnall and Alexandra Elfers as we continue our discussions of autism, disability, power, passion, and how to be people through it all. You thought we touched on a lot last week? We were apparently just getting warmed up! There is so much more. And honestly, if we hadn't all run out of spoons (and perhaps also forks) we might have kept on talking for another two hours. This episode we hit on some controversies in the ABA community, how to be a good human, the challenge of masking--or not masking--as a neurodiverse human, and how consent has a complex history when it come to disability. Lots to unpack and we barely scratch the surface, but come along as we start to look at these issues in our second hour of conversation.

    This week we invite Dr. Robin Arnall, Ph.D., BCBA-D, LBA, and Alexandra Vassar, MS, BCBA, COBA, NCLBA into the room for a massive discussion. Well, not the literal room because we all want virtual work as an accommodation. Robin and Alexandra join us to discuss work in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis and the controversies over power, control, systems, and consent that come along with being neurodivergent in this space. There are numerous tangents, a few sensitive subjects, lots of laughs, and even some tears. There are also a number of apologies from Christy who seems intent on offending everyone she has ever met in this discussion--if she doesn't apologize to you in this episode, stay tuned for Part 2!

    This week we hit all of the contentious topics in tangent form! Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, the so-called Woke Agenda, the ways that disability intersects, and how politics, race, poverty, and even being "pretty" shape our worlds are discussed. And in true Disability Tangent form we also talk about Christy's witchy ways, Rocco's drinking habits, philosophy, distraction, and imaginary ways to shop that should totally exist! Things get a bit wild and possibly overwhelming, but we hope there is also a little bit to learn and to consider. Buckle up, and thanks for joining us on the journey!

    E12 Fixing or Finding Authenticity in Disability (You Don't Want to Sound Like Hillary Clinton)

    Another Tangent hits the airwaves and this time Rocco and Christy are talking about "Fixing". What is it? What does it mean in the context of disability? How do we keep from making disabled people feel wrong, or broken? And what helps us find authentic, empowering community? Jump in to this topic with us as we stumble upon some wisdom--and a little chaos, and a little laughter, and a little weirdness.

    The second half of a fantastic conversation with Suzannah Weiss! We jump back in to chatting about neurodiversity and dating, relationships and sex. There is so much good content, and some hard content so trigger warnings, y'all. How to break out of societal boundaries, do we forgive people who have violated our boundaries, and what do we do when people don't seem to respect that we can't meet the expectations society sets for us. Lots of wisdom. Lots of laughs. Lots of concerns about when we will break for lunch. It is all in this episode! Grab a slice, and give it a listen! (Seriously, you'll be hungry by the end. We all were. Even the dog.) Part 2 of 2!

    Suzannah Weiss, author of Subjectified: Becoming a Sexual Subject joins us to talk about her book and so. much. more. In fact, we had so much to talk about that we are continuing the conversation in the next episode. We discuss some challenging topics, so a warning to those who might want to steer clear of this one or seek out supports, or listen with friends. Sex and neurodivergence start us off but that leads to stories and statistics of sexual coercion, assaults, and how we can begin to shape our own behaviors to stay safer and state needs. There is a lot to unpack about how disability diagnosis can lead to damaging situations. But we also have a lot of quirky fun as we dive into this subject matter! Christy loses her train of thought. Rocco takes us on a tangent. And Suzannah asks some really good questions of our hosts, turning the tangent tables on us! So get ready for a great time with the person we may just make our resident sexologist, and move her on into the studio (aka Christy's guest room) because we are smitten. (Christy is. Christy is smitten. Rocco is happily married, y'all.)

And speaking of loud, there may be yelling--be prepared for that as well. Apparently some passionate feels come out at the intersection of disability and healthcare! Who knew?

    E6 Disabled Researchers Part 2 (Reciprocal Co-humaning?)

    Round Two with Dr. Robin Arnall and Alexandra Elfers as we continue our discussions of autism, disability, power, passion, and how to be people through it all. You thought we touched on a lot last week? We were apparently just getting warmed up! There is so much more. And honestly, if we hadn't all run out of spoons (and perhaps also forks) we might have kept on talking for another two hours. This episode we hit on some controversies in the ABA community, how to be a good human, the challenge of masking--or not masking--as a neurodiverse human, and how consent has a complex history when it come to disability.

    This week we invite Dr. Robin Arnall, Ph.D., BCBA-D, LBA, and Alexandra Vassar, MS, BCBA, COBA, NCLBA into the room for a massive discussion. Well, not the literal room because we all want virtual work as an accommodation. Robin and Alexandra join us to discuss work in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis and the controversies over power, control, systems, and consent that come along with being neurodivergent in this space. There are numerous tangents, a few sensitive subjects, lots of laughs, and even some tears. There are also a number of apologies from Christy who seems intent on offending everyone she has ever met in this discussion--if she doesn't apologize to you in this episode, stay tuned for Part 2!

    E4 DEI, Disability, and the Woke Agenda (Sneezes and Curses)

    This week we hit all of the contentious topics in tangent form! Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, the so-called Woke Agenda, the ways that disability intersects, and how politics, race, poverty, and even being "pretty" shape our worlds are discussed. And in true Disability Tangent form we also talk about Christy's witchy ways, Rocco's drinking habits, philosophy, distraction, and imaginary ways to shop that should totally exist! Things get a bit wild and possibly overwhelming, but we hope there is also a little bit to learn and to consider. Buckle up, and thanks for joining us on the journey!
