Autastic: A Comedians Guide to Autism
Kirk Smith & Graham Kay · Kirk Smith
Show overview
Autastic: A Comedians Guide to Autism has been publishing since 2021, and across the 5 years since has built a catalogue of 100 episodes. That works out to roughly 50 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence.
Episodes typically run twenty to thirty-five minutes — most land between 27 min and 33 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language Kids & Family show.
The show is still active — the most recent episode landed 4 weeks ago, though releases have slowed compared with earlier in the run. The busiest year was 2023, with 30 episodes published. Published by Kirk Smith.
From the publisher
