  • Thank you!

    Thank you for this podcast! You both have such soothing voices to listen to and bring up such important issues surrounding ADHD. I am the parent to a young ADHD child and partner to an ADHD adult-neither of whom are medicated. So much of what you talk about resonates with our family. As a supportive parent and partner I am the lead on learning, researching and understanding ADHD. As you mention ADHD affects all aspects of your life-the same is true for our family. Thank you for considering the n... more

  • Brilliant, relatable presenters and guests

    I’ve already shared this podcast with a lot of my friends, so I’m doing a review here for people I don’t know - to encourage you to learn about ADHD via this brilliant podcast. While the hosts and wide ranging guests discuss adult ADHD it’s also been useful for me as a parent of an ADHD girl. The ying/yang of the two hosts is good and they just seem like really interesting people. I have learnt so much about ADHD from this podcast. I hope you do too. PS Please carry on making it!

  • A must listen!

    Absolutely buzzing that this pod is back with new episodes. Sam and Katie have such a brilliant dynamic and the way they break things down is not only super insightful but also genuinely entertaining. I’ve missed their thoughtful deep dives and relatable chats and these new episodes are everything I hoped for and more. It’s so refreshing to hear nuanced and compassionate conversations about ADHD that don’t feel preachy or dry. Loving every minute and cannot wait for more.

  • An absolute gem

    As a fellow neurodivergent person, I found this podcast to be an absolute gem. Sam and Katie's friendship shines through in every episode, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels like you're sitting down for a cuppa with old friends. Their contrasting views on ADHD - Katie's optimism and Sam's pragmatism - offer a beautifully balanced perspective that resonates deeply with the rollercoaster experience of neurodivergence.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

BONUS: It's never too late to get diagnosed with ADHD
Q: What was your overriding feeling and how did you react when you were diagnosed?
Gill felt relieved because the diagnosis helped explain her behavior and gave her a better understanding of herself. It also helped her and Richard communicate with more understanding.
BONUS: It's never too late to get diagnosed with ADHD
Q: What made you decide at a good age of 67, 66, to say, I want to get diagnosed with ADHD?
Gill wanted to understand herself after her son-in-law suggested she might have ADHD. She sought an assessment and found the essay-style questions difficult.
ADHD on The Traitors
Q: What happened that made you suddenly think you might have ADHD and need to look into it?
Baker says people had suggested he might have ADHD after he was mistaken for being on drugs because of his energy. A workplace mistake, his partner's encouragement and an old school report describing his difficulty sitting still prompted him to seek diagnosis. He says medication made it easier to slow down and focus.
ADHD on The Traitors
Q: What did you mean when you said that the job you ended up doing, gardening for people and running a gardening business, came to you almost too late?
Baker says he had wanted to become a forester at 18 but did not take the risk. After family responsibilities and an unsatisfying job made him reconsider, his partner encouraged him to start a gardening business. He finds the work stimulating and says it helps him feel calmer and make better decisions.
BONUS: ADHD and making rash decisions
Q: Is doing half a task and then moving on to the next one multitasking or forgetfulness?
Katie describes housework as a chaotic carousel of unfinished tasks, attributing the pattern to ADHD, task interest, and the dullness of housework. She says she eventually completes tasks by putting in more time and accepting some mess.
