Episode notes

Oscar is very matter of fact. His social skills can be a little rusty and that he you know can struggle with the rest of Prosti piece like we talked about before. And I think this movie did such a great job of showing the inner world that he lives in without it becoming like a stereotype or kind of yeah like a monolith. But I know we're kind of sliding into the topic of grief. So I'm wondering is there anything else we want to talk about specifically about autism spectrum?

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.
