This article is an It’s a Superpower?? special, set in the world of our audio sitcom! To find out more, see the bottom of the piece.

An autistic woman is reportedly so in denial about having basic human emotions that the only way she will acknowledge them is by having a literal magic spell cast on her.

Pix, 39, who is very chill and laissez-faire about everything, honest, definitely doesn’t have anything as mortifying as, say, a crush on a big manbaby named Wilder, 39, and you couldn’t make her admit it even if she did – which she doesn’t. Unless you were to turn her into a cartoon princess for a day. That’d probably do it.

Reluctantly bursting into an impassioned original song, Pix explained: “I need a man – a very fragile man,” before going on to list every attribute belonging to Wilder, whose butt she really hadn’t been checking out. Promise.

Pix’s feelings then morphed into murderous rage at her friends for casting the spell on her in the first place, causing the song she was singing to change into an angry diatribe before Wilder got a chance to hear her sing about him. Thank God – because she wouldn’t have wanted him to get the wrong idea. Obviously.

Wilder commented: “Wait, what was that about my butt?”

It’s a Superpower?? is the first ever sitcom by and for autistic people (poor things) and is available now wherever you get podcasts. If you can’t wait to find out what happens, you can listen to the whole thing early and ad-free at selected tiers on Patreon. 

The show is a Daily Tism production, created by Sara Gibbs and Andrew Hickey of a History of Rock Music in 500 Songs and written by The Daily Tism co-editor, Sara Gibbs, with additional material from the best of the best of the UK’s autistic comedy writing scene.

It stars our very own team members, Sarah Amero and Guy Kelly, along with Alasdair Beckett-King, John Butler, Stuart Laws, Georgia Mackenzie, Lizzie Schenk, Abigail Weinstock – and some frankly unbelievable A-list cameos.
