My fellow professional wrestling friends are in for a treat today as I am accompanied by WWE Hall of Famer Jake The Snake Roberts. Considered by many to be one of the most well-known figures in professional wrestling, Mr. Roberts was well-known for his dark appeal, clever and powerful promos, frequent use of trickery in his matches, and inventive usage of the DDT finisher. His two grandkids have cerebral palsy and autism, which is why he appears on my show. Jake, on the other hand, has a unique story to tell; despite having COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) and having experienced drug and child abuse , he continues to live his life. Let's welcome resident snake, Jake The Snake Roberts to Autism Rocks and Rolls.

In this episode, I talk about the nature of humor in people on the autistic spectrum, including the kinds of humor that they find funny and how it might manifest itself in different ways. I also explore the myth that individuals on the spectrum don't find comedy humorous, dispelling it by outlining the motivations for their appreciation of humor. I also discuss the issue of whether it's acceptable to make light of someone who has a disability. I also discuss the problem of people with autism spectrum disorders being thought of as "overly humorous," or "overjoking." I also go into why people on the spectrum can be funny, why they frequently don't think of themselves as funny, and why they prefer to show humor with their body language rather than their words. I wrapped off by talking about how some people find it difficult to grasp humor and provided some recommendations for how people on the spectrum might improve their ability to understand and enjoy jokes and humor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yw91uUfVP6I https://www.amazon.com/Pranklopedia-Funniest-Grossest-Craziest-Not-Mean/dp/0761189963 https://www.amazon.com/Jokelopedia-Biggest-Best-Silliest-Dumbest/dp/0761142088 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lX gU9 Wok    

In this episode, I discuss budgeting and money management for people on the autism spectrum. I'll discuss why I find the currency system perplexing and what, in my opinion, the currency system needs to be. I also go into the reasons why a person with autism would, consciously or unconsciously, refuse to even accept payment as an option. I even chat to the parents about this subject since I discuss the need of early intervention. Lastly, even though I explain why it is difficult for people who are on the autism spectrum, I also offer advice on how they might become financially independent.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2szL2h10yA https://autismakron.org/index.php/documents/resources/apps/300-financial-stability-apps/file https://life-skills.middletownautism.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/10/Managing-Money-Workbook.pdf
