My name is Faith Jacobs and I’m an openly autistic author, podcaster, director and producer of several original projects, including Chaotic idiots. My podcasting background and start: When I tuned into fiction podcasts during the height of the pandemic days (March of 2020) I started first with a story called the two princes and then discovered Valence and Last Call At Bluebell cafe, and Far Meridian. I appreciated the change of pace from the void that was my life so, in honor or those stories, here’s a list containing the few that helped me and I hope they help you too. As much as my own, chaotic idiots, may help you to be kinder to yourself and to those around you, it was deeply inspired by the following podcasts as chosen below. Chaotic idiots is more than it appears. It’s chosen genre is fantasy but it’s also a coming of age story about a boy who finds himself caught up in things he never knew.

As mentioned, we all need an escape from life sometimes. Especially in the times we live in, These few I’ve mentioned, and mine, I hope you can cozy up with a coffee, a hot chocolate, a cozy sweet, maybe something warm like good soup, your favorite lounge gear and a soft blanket.
