The Last Election (BOOK CLUB #03)

by Andrew Yang & Stephen Marche
A: I don't think it's exactly what's going to happen, but I will tell you it soothed my expectation sensitivity. It's a super fun read.

Dr. Angela Lauria recommends the book "The Last Election" by Andrew Yang and Stephen Marche. It's a fictional political thriller about the 2024 U.S. presidential election where no candidate gets the 270 electoral votes needed. Throughout the episode, the hosts discuss the ways they work with their Autistic β€œexpectation sensitivity.”

A: I struggle with expectation sensitivity.
M: Ooh, like many of us.
A: Yes! And right now, the state of elections in America is preoccupying the hell out of my mind.
M: Preoccupying, terrifying, you know, all the stuff.
