It's the one Joint Champion of the 1980s, as neither Oscars nor audience can resist Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise teaming up for the road movie Rain Man, which also serves as perhaps the first major pop culture depiction of autism. Here to help Claire, Erin, and Dan break down the movie's efforts to examine neurodivergence is Dan's big brother Dr. Chris Gibbins, psychologist specializing in this exact topic, so a fun break from work for Chris. How are the medical professionals depicted this time around, and which is the favourite? What would the 2024 version of this look like? Are we sure Tom Cruise's character isn't also on the spectrum? Join us as we cover all things Rain Man before it's time for Wapner.
