I was listening to the WTF podcast earlier today... which actually is a podcast where they have a lot of well known comedians around for a talk. So they had Jack Gallagher on (known from Curb your enthousiasm apparently).
But apparently he has an autistic son and did spend a rather large portion of the show talking about raising him and well.. kinda "explaining" how he's actually different. I thought it was kinda interesting and interesting enough to share here. At first I frowned a bit about how dumbed down some stuff was with a Rain man reference, but I guess that's the kind of examples you have to give.

The autism part starts at about the 48 minute-mark.
