Just a Typical ADHDer
by Noelle Matteson
I am Noelle, and this podcast is titled "Just a Typical ADHDer" because I am a curious ADHDer with far too many interests. Also, "Ramblings of an Incoherent Mind" was already taken. Going to start publishing more consistently on Sundays.

19. Brief Catch-Up
Hello! I feel as though once again I’m back to square one and am trying to figure out my future, so I thought I'd share a brief catch-up in which I speculate about doing a segment called Special Interest Sundays, ramble about recent distractions such as Twitter and 23andMe, and think about...

18. Website Responsibility: Regulation vs. Curation
Am I going to rant about capitalism every episode? Maybe. For some reason, audio is quieter than usual. I also talk about large websites and regulation vs. curation, though I feel as though I change my mind at one point. Topics include websites saying their responsibility is to their employees or...

17. Year of Hell (Part 2 of 2)
Recorded before the election, I read book descriptions and rant (more) about capitalism. At around 22 minutes, I recommend the podcast Scam Goddess, hosted by the brilliant Laci Mosley, which is more accurate and insightful than most true crime podcasts. I again mention Elizabeth Holmes and...

16: Year of Hell (Part 1 of 2)
An update of sorts, recorded towards the "beginning" of the pandemic. I ramble about how I am coping (or not) and rant about how ASD (autism spectrum disorder) is diagnosed. Certainly recorded before the significant and continuous wave of Black Lives Matter protests and before I realized that…

15: Theranos, Elizabeth Holmes, and Myths about American Capitalism and Exceptionalism
I wanted to talk about this since listening to the podcast "The Dropout." I recorded this months later. I edited it months after that. Anyway, here I rant about Elizabeth Holmes, Theranos, and capitalism. In 2003, the 19-year old Elizabeth Holmes dropped out of Stanford University to found a...

14: Mini Meditation on Missing Things
Honestly, this is just a five-minute ramble about missing the podcast which somehow also brings up death, religion, and amputation. A longer episode will be coming soon. Image by <a...

Episode 13 - Bookstore Visit and Fanfiction
I talk about a recent bookstore visit, My Struggle, and fan fiction (from 4:40 to the end).Discussion mentions the fetishization of gay men and the q-word. At 7:54, I reference a conversation that was a specific post and discussion I saw online. At 13:24, I should have said those “involved in...

Episode 12 - A Female Villain Trope I Hate (… and More Gotham)
I rant about my distaste for flawless, brilliant female villains who are viewed almost exclusively from a male character's perspective. To me, they fall into the "strong female character" trope at its worst: rather than nuanced or at least powerful characters, they are plot devices who end up...

Episode 11 - Gotham (Part 4): The Penguin (II)
Yeah. More Gotham. I talk about the character Oswald Cobblepot, a.k.a. Penguin, particularly his need for narcissistic supply and his relationships with his mother, the Riddler, and his employees (eventually "subjects"). His inconsistencies are probably due to problematic storytelling, but my…

Episode 10 - Gotham (Part 3): The Penguin
Spoilers ahead! I talk about Gotham's popular character Oswald Cobblepot, a.k.a Penguin, portrayed by the expressive Robin Lord Taylor. Part 1 of 2 on this iconic crime lord. Mentioned: "Six Ways to Make Your Villain Likable" by Chris Winkle. To donate, search for or noellevivante on Patreon.

Episode 9 - Gotham TV Series (Part 2)
A bit later than I expected, I continue my discussion of Gotham. For the first ten minutes or so, I rant about problems with the series, but then I praise its setting, tone, and score. I discuss characters and may very well record another podcast to go more into more depth about likely the most...

Episode 8 - Gotham TV Series (Part 1)
Where I discuss mostly the negative aspects of the TV show Gotham. (I'll share more positives later.) I also explain my lack of familiarity with comic books, why sometimes I only watch certain plotlines in a television series, and my three main problems with the Batman prequel Gotham.

Episode 2 - "You" and Narcissism
Hello! In this episode, I review the television series You, which aired on Lifetime and is now available on Netflix. I discuss narcissism and its excellent if disturbing portrayal of the extremely narcissistic narrator Joe. There are a few minor spoilers, but I give warnings beforehand. I will…

Episode 1 - Star Trek Documentary: "What We Left Behind"
Hello again! I recently saw What We Left Behind, a documentary about the Star Trek series Deep Space Nine. In this podcast, which is longer than I expected, I ramble about the documentary as well as its context within my experience of Star Trek. Apologies for the editing--the beginning of…

Episode 0
Testing, one, two, three... This may very well offend audio editors, so my apologies. In "Episode 0," I ramble about what I want this podcast to be (I don't know) and give a brief autobiography, basically only covering places I've lived.
