Seeing the World Differently: Autism, Animals, and the Mind of Temple Grandin

Chelsea sits down with Dr. Temple Grandin, a professor of animal science, bestselling author, and one of the most influential voices in autism advocacy. Diagnosed with autism in the 1950s, Dr. Grandin turned what many saw as a limitation into a remarkable strength and transformed how the world understands both animal behavior and human neurodiversity. In this conversation, she and Chelsea explore whether or not we should be treating autism with Leucovorin, how visual thinking shaped her groundbreaking work with livestock, how we can eat meat ethically and what she believes people still get wrong about autism today.
