In our conversation we discussed his book 30 Neurodivergent pepople you should know about, imposter syndrome, OCD, gender bias, safe spaces and art!
Note to the listeners, when I interviewed Joe he was sharing a space during his Edinburgh Fringe gigs, so there may be some background noise and I apologise for this!
At one point Joe had to relocate to the bathroom so we could continue our chat in peace and we share some great laughs. Enjoy!
