Episode notes

Dr. Paulton: I'm glad to say that even after 25 years, 30 years of practice, I still think I have the best job in the world because I get to sit down with people and talk about things that are really relevant and personal and important. So those are all really, really enjoyable activities that I've been doing over the years. One of my sons was on the spectrum or is on the spectrum. He's tall around. It's 24 years old. And he's doing great living independently on the East Coast.

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.
