Theo Von's ADHD Asked Trump About Cocaine on Live Radio

At 14, Theo Von legally emancipated himself from his family and lived out of a backpack, his hyperactive mind unable to conform to the chaos at home. His ADHD brain doesn't follow traditional comedy rules or social scripts, leading him to ask surreal questions about cocaine to former presidents while building one of the largest independent media platforms on Earth. What society saw as a liability, he engineered into an empire. All documents, transcripts, and sources are available at nbn.fm/neurodivergent/ep37.
