Rainn Wilson sits down with comedian ‪@rickglassman‬ (Take Your Shoes Off podcast, ABC's Not Dead Yet), known for his sharp wit and unique comedic timing. The two ponder their spiritual beliefs and fears that speaking on God could polarize the audience. Rick opens up about his adult diagnosis of autism and how this revelation shed light on his unique approach to communication, both offstage and on. He shares how this provided him with a lens through which to re-evaluate his mental health, past interactions and struggles for connection. They delve into the art of joke-telling, discussing the delicate balance between making the audience laugh and letting them in on the joke, creating a shared space of understanding and enjoyment.

I've been following Rick for a while and when he does talk about being neurodivergent, I feel like it's really important and vulnerable for him, but it's so valuable for people that may not have understood the things that come with autism before. Rec encourage me to do my own research. It helps me understand certain people in my family, who have autism and a whole lot of us have ADHD, which is also neurodivergent, including myself. I really appreciate how Rick can be funny and then serious. That's the best balance. I clicked on this for Rick but I think I'll stay listening for Rainn.

Coming from working in the healthcare sector, there's something we talk about called compassion fatigue. It means that the extension of your compassionate instincts can be taken too far because your boundaries are being pushed without consent. The consent part is sometimes missed, or replaced with "you chose your job". I would say that while Rainn has spoken about doing it monthly by month and by his choosing, be careful how far you go because I've seen the most conscious and put together people break down from compassion fatigue leading to complete burnout layered with heavy guilt for feeling like they've failed.

So true. I'm a catastrophic work comp adjuster x 21 years and deal with deaths and severe life altering injuries. And IT IS draining. Being a super empath, I have learned to block some of the stuff, but I feel so drained after even a day of listening to people complain and project and be devastated all day long. And boy are my arms tired....sorry had to add that. 😂 but yes these types of jobs are sooo draining.

This was me too.. to get things done I'd need someone with me (mirroring) for my brain to kick in and do it. And also there's an aspect of executive dysfunction where you don't know where to start. It may seem simple to others.. but it can be overwhelming. And the cherry ontop is finding out you're dyslexic too.. so you're a visual thinker.. so you see things in your brain like it's a projector.. and teachers are like.. why can't they do the task. Our brains are different and we never got a God damn instruction manual.. and there's no helpline to call just hold music (people having no idea how to help) and trying but making things worse and you feel more incapable with neurotypical solutions to neurodivergent brains. Okay I'm done 😊 haha Great podcast. ❤🎉

Rainn's eyes feel so safe and in admiration - there is hope in this world. This was fuel for my continued spiritual journey, thank you both for being present, vulnerable and honest.

I have spent the last few years on my own personal hero/healing journey. I had to stop this video and post another comment stressing the part about more in depth of the autistic experience. I would love to talk with you guys about it all. I have a few special interests. Some of which simultaneously come and go in cycles. But for the past I don’t even know how many years at this point, the top interests have been autism, psychology, spirituality and philosophy. With a side of mental health and wellness.

how did you know that you should seek out help to try and figure out if you were autistic, like I wanna do it but there are so many steps and I don't know where to start, I am already bipolar, ADHD, avoidant personality disorder and social anxiety, but like after having lived alone and not worked for a very long time I no longer feel like the bipolar fots, that was something that would have fit when I had to be under a lot of stress all the time, but what if I'm misdiagnosed, like I've never fit in, I feel like people intentionally misunderstand me all the time, I have a lot of sensory issues but that can be the ADHD though.

See, the autism discussions are so important, especially for women. Women with autism present in a different way than what is typically recognized as being "autistic". So many in my life were like "duh, we know".. But there were a few who said I wasnt.. I thought the same too, like.. You have no idea what I do when people arent around. You know the masked me. You have nooo idea what goes on in my head. It got worse when everyone started self diagnosing on tiktok.. Now, everyone thinks everyone is just making up that they're autistic to be "different"

Excellent. Really appreciate how open Rick was and deep he was willing to go. When "funny guys" are willing to be serious, lives are changed. Thanks for not yucking it up.

1:03:29 A characteristic issue of autism is that it presents an "asymmetric profile". Neurotypicals are more or less good doing a lot of things, there's a certain regularity within the "average." But people on the spectrum have that "irregular/spiky" profile, they can be very very good at two or three things, but have enormous difficulties in two or three other things that, for most people, are simple and everyday skills (like you are very good in intense periods of concentration, hyperfocus, but the anxiety of talking on the phone or keeping order with bills/deadlines is almost impossible) And we are not necessarily talking about savant-type ability, it's just that irregularity in the social/emotional skills profile; you can't cope (at least not for a long time, burnout is a thing) with all the common "expected" things of a neurotypical. Little things that are taken for granted in everyone are not "natural" for people on the spectrum, you just don't get it (but of course you can rationalize them, that's masking, like playing a highly curated script about social skills)

This is the most seen I’ve ever felt. I’ve loved both Rainn and Rick , this podcast needs to be a seen by anyone questioning if they might be on the spectrum. I was diagnosed in my 30’s as well.

18:30 love the whole goal of Soul Boom of finding the commonality of religions. If anyone is interested it's the concept of Perennial Philosophy!

This was A+. Any content that makes you laugh, makes you learn and helps understand the points of view from folks who have struggled with something is all I can ask for.

I’ve never known religion, I come from a home of scientists. I’m far too pragmatic to ever believe in any one religion, and I philosophically define myself as an absurdist. Nonetheless, this was a fascinating watch, and was well worth the time spent. Looking forward to more. I hadn’t heard of the Baha’i faith before just now, but I do see the value for many to lead a life with spirituality at the forefront. Not that either of you said this, but I do resent the idea that being spiritual is a prerequisite to having a strong moral compass, or even that it’s a prerequisite to finding a ‘tribe’. I have, and love and adore all of my people, and they run the gamut of religious beliefs.

Nice post. As far the connection between morality and spirituality, i would say morality exists not in the physical world but the mental, emotional world. So moral terms like responsibility and generosity are felt. We talk about a moral compass on a soul level. I think the connection between the moral compass and spirituality, or the soul, is just semantic. It's just making the distinction from the physical to the emotional and conceptual. Not sure how i clear i was but again, great post!

Love to see Rick being raw, honest, and reflective about his diagnosis. Truly admirable

The core difference between spirituality and religion, is that you’re *beholden* to something outside yourself, whereas in spirituality you’re not.

Spirituality as in you are beholden to nothing > means letting go of all that is not nothing. There is no core but God! Blessings to you all friends

A different podcast to what I normally listen to. Really enjoyed it and getting a perspective of Rick that I hadn’t seen or heard before and was really interesting to listen to. Great job guys 👏

If every episode of this podcast is similar to this you got me. Love what this podcast is about, and Rick as a first guest is awesome! I feel being open about ourselves with other people is one of the most human things one can do. Looking forward to the next one :)

The more we realize we can only control how we feel, the less other people’s opinions will affect us. With that understanding we have a solid ground under our feet, we gain control over ourselves and then we can better understand how we feel. Self acceptance was the first step for me. And by the way, how I LOVE this podcast already! Thank you 🌻

Ricky's on the loose! I love watching people do that face when they suddenly fall in love with Rick,. The wit, the banter, the emotional intelligence,... and i say that wearing outside clothes while inside. I also admire Rainn's mission with this podcast,... you may want to get Pete Holmes on if you haven't already, his grasp on religion/philosophy/spirituality/theosophy/comedy is a close 2nd to Russell Brand.
