Lawn Chairs in Space
by Lawn Chairs in Space
Lawn Chairs in Space is a long-form, unscripted podcast centered on lived experience—especially late-diagnosed neurodivergence, with a focus on autism and ADHD. These are unedited, freeform conversations. No music. No scripts. No segments. No pressure to land a point. Each episode is simply two people showing up as they are—talking the way neurodivergent minds actually talk. Looping. Spiraling. Making lateral connections. Moving between the personal and the abstract. From movies to relationships, quantum physics to nervous systems, field data to memory, identity, creativity, and how we experience the world from the inside. This show is not about fixing, optimizing, or explaining neurodivergence for outsiders. It’s about being inside it. Hosted by Joi Sun and Gnat's Rants featuring regular collaborators—who live, think, and perceive differently. There’s no plan for where the conversation will go. The point is to let it go where it needs to
