Description

We're sharing an episode of Where There’s a Will, which searches for the surprising places Shakespeare shows up outside the theater. Host Barry Edelstein asks what is it about Shakespeare that’s given him a continuous afterlife in all sorts of unexpected ways? You’ll hear Shakespeare doing rehabilitative work in a maximum security prison, in the mouths of U.S. presidents, and even at the center of a deadly riot in New York City. In this preview, Barry meets children with a very special relationship to the Bard: autistic kids, who discover ways to express themselves through a writer from 400 years ago.You can hear more episodes at https://link.chtbl.com/loudestgirlshakespeareSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For years, Lauren Ober wasn’t all that jazzed about herself. She was always getting in trouble, she had weird sensory issues and her anxiety felt off the charts. Plus, socially she kind of sucked. Life for Lauren just seemed harder than it should have been at 42. And then, in the middle of a global pandemic, she found out why — she was autistic. The Loudest Girl in the World is a new podcast that tells the story of Lauren’s journey to understand what the hell it means to be on the autism spectrum and how to live life as a newly diagnosed autistic person. It's about finding yourself broken in a place you never expected to be and emerging from that place a mostly glued back together person.
