We've been exploring the amazing SyFy TV show The Magicians on our podcast this year with an episode-by-episode watch through (don't even get me started on how the writers packed so many discussion-nessecary events - and jokes - in each episode. SMH.). After covering S1 here, S2 here, and S3 here, we decided to take a week to discuss a compelling take on Quentin Coldwater before we jump into S4.
Chris and I have family members who are on the autistic spectrum, so when Dustin Holden of the "Rewatch Recap Podcast" mentioned that he thinks of Quentin as autistic, we automatically made some connections.
So we wanted to bring Dustin on our podcast to discuss Quentin being coded as autistic and how Dustin's own diagnnosis impacts his interpretation. We have a wonderful conversation about Quentin’s relationships, his engagement with Fillory, how he compares to autistic characters outside of The Magicians, and so much more.
Share the laughter and aha! moments with us as we explore a new reading of Quentin Coldwater...
