Normally, I love these two. I listen to a lot of Gordon and a lot of Chris across the podcast-verse. But at around 1 hour 33 minutes (link is cued up just before that) Chris notes that about “1 in 55” kids is on the spectrum, and do we really want them having kids with others who are ASD? Is that something we want a a society?

Please wind it back, it’s an interesting discussion, if a little doom-laden at times.

I REALLY DON’T WANT TO MISREPRESENT AND I WANT TO GET A SECOND OPINION.

I want to say “this is a potential argument put forward by the class of people Chris and Gordon are critiquing” and not something Chris would just drop as a flippant opinion.

But to me, it doesn’t sound like it. That makes me sad. Please wind it back, have a listen and tell me I’m a doofus or something because I’m not listening right.

I am reassessing my thoughts about this guy too. He has done some interesting stuff (‘Our gods wear spandex’ etc). But this ASD stuff is just a turn off.
