Episode notes

I'm sure there are a lot more instances of his father telling him, okay, walk up to the counter and tell them that you want, you know, a small coke or something like that. And him not being able to do that kind of thing. You know, those are the daily kind of practices and challenges and yeah. To me that would have allowed him to go up to the different people at the different doors. I really I missed those moments"

On the 20th anniversary of 9/11 we discuss the tragically beautiful Academy Award nominated film Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. In this episode we discuss the unique journey of Oskar Schell as he processes the life changing event of losing the person who understood him best in the world while simultaneously living through the collective trauma of the September 11th attacks. We are joined by special guests Dr. David Paltin who is an expert in Neuro-Atypical Presentations and Andrew Rubin who is the president of Symptom Media.
