It's episode five, ya'll! Brittney and Joshua return with four of our favorite fiction featuring neurodiverse authors and characters. Plus, we dip our toes into fandom with our little take on the quirks and cringe-worthy moments of the Star Wars universe … and the relationship advice you didn't know you wanted?
