Catie and Erik's Infinite Quest: An ADHD Adventure

In this episode, Cate and Erik discuss the often impossible notion of "keeping going" and what that means to them as ADHDers, particularly in relation to their new and upcoming projects, and what life last year (and a year from now) looks like with the idea of "keeping going" at the forefront of their minds. Cate unpacks her fears and failings, Erik thinks farts are funny, and we meander through a meaningful, if not slightly tangent-filled conversation about the prospect of what InfiniteQuest could become.

Cate and Erik are on the road in Madison, Wisconsin at GameHoleCon, and we figured this is as good of time as any to announce Infinite Quest's newest adventure: QuestCraft! We're starting a Minecraft server for neurodivergent people (and friends) to play minecraft together and where we'll be creating content. Erik and Cate also talk about minecraft and their experiences playing and the lessons they've learned along the way. Cate shares some FUN SCIENCE and Erik gets vulnerable about just how much precisely Minecraft means to him.

Today's episode comes as a special request from OG twitch stream buddy Tsukino, who wanted to know how to help teach someone how to create systems that work.

On this sick-day episode, Erik and Cate talk a little bit about their latest exploits, from conventions to guest appearances to ... punching people in the feet and whether it is, or is not, a "thing". I dunno, usually I write these in third person but I'm super sick and we're both exhausted, so just know this one is very meandering but includes some important life info about what life is gonna be like for us moving forward for awhile.

In this episode, Cate and Erik attempt to have a conversation about working from home and accidentally find themselves embroiled in one of the toughest (yet most common) questions they get-- what do you do when you're not motivated? Cate and Erik wrestle with finding an answer that both accurately represents the challenges of functioning as an adult while also acknowledging the profound difficulties that come with executive disfunction (and, for us, depression). Spoilers: we do not come up with a concise answer.
