Josh Has Autism

Sonya King: Author | Comedian | Speaker | Parent Surviving Autismsonyaking.com
This is a podcast about living with an adult son who has Autism. I never know what he’s going to say. Sometimes it’s funny, sometimes it’s insightful, and sometimes it just doesn’t make any sense at all. So, of course we should record it all, and call it a podcast!
