The Autistic Culture Podcast Network

The Autistic Culture Podcast Network (ACPN) is a global, Autistic-led audio collective that helps Autistic creators produce, publish, and grow podcasts documenting the full breadth of Autistic life. We are not a clinical service. We are a media network built by Autistic people, run by Autistic people, and grounded in the belief that Autistic people should shape the stories told about our lives.

We work with two groups. The first is Autistic creators: podcasters, writers, comedians, researchers, and advocates who have a show, or an idea for one, and want the backing of a network to make it and grow it. You do not need broadcasting experience or professional equipment to apply. The second is Autistic listeners and our allies, who come to the network for shows made from lived experience rather than about it. Our programming spans Autistic menopause, late diagnosis, film and culture, parenting, work, relationships, and the everyday texture of Autistic life.

ACPN is a programme of the Autistic Culture Institute, a Bristol-based voluntary community organisation. Contact us to apply for a show, propose a collaboration, join us a volunteer, or simply find something good to listen to.
