This episode originally aired on May 9, 2023, under the title “Questlove is Autistic.”“He has won An Academy Award, a Grammy Award—oh, six Grammy Awards—a BAFTA. Yeah, dude has had a career. The man needs some more shelf space for awards.”“OK, so we've got a stim—which is spinning things—and we've got a special interest—which is Soul Train. That leads to Black music history (and) music history in general. Put those two together and what do you have? A career as a DJ! Fantastic.”“For each of the 200,000 records that he has, name any song and he can tell you the beats per minute of that song.” “Wow.
