Autism podcasts serve autistic adults, parents, educators, and clinicians, and many are hosted by autistic people or their families. For clinicians, therapists, educators, researchers, and authors in the autism and neurodiversity space, these shows reach a community that values lived experience and evidence.

This list is built for pitching, not listening. Every show below takes guests and comes with listener estimates and booking difficulty, so you can tell quickly whether it fits your client.

What puts a show on this list

  • Active — published an episode in the last 2 months
  • Takes guests — an interview or guest format
  • Mid-sized — 100 to 10,000 estimated listeners per episode and very low to medium booking difficulty: shows your client can realistically get on
  • Has a contact email — so you can pitch the show directly

Household-name shows are left out on purpose. They rarely book guests from cold pitches; mid-sized shows do, and their audiences are often more focused.

No items found.

Pitch autism shows with respect for the audience

Autism hosts book guests who respect their listeners. Check whether the show speaks mainly to autistic adults or to parents, use the language the show uses, and offer one practical topic, such as school support, communication, sensory needs, or adult diagnosis.
