The ADHD Adults Podcast

A peer-support podcast for UK adults with ADHD, blending scientific explanations with self-deprecating humor and personal experience.

The brief

A structured yet chaotic weekly conversation between three hosts navigating adulthood with ADHD in the UK. One host, a biomedical scientist, delivers a "psychoeducation" segment on topics like neuroplasticity or medication, while the other two hosts ground the science in lived experience. The show is deeply self-referential and mocks its own production, fostering a strong in-joke culture with its audience.

Unlike many wellness podcasts, it pairs qualified scientists (Dr. Conner and Prof. Brown) with a lay perspective (Mrs ADHD), allowing it to toggle between rigorous scientific explanation and the chaotic reality of living with the condition. Its aggressively self-deprecating humor and "peer support" framing make it feel more like a conversation with friends than a clinical resource.

What you'll be asked on this show

How the host interviews

This is a co-hosted conversational show, not an interview podcast. Episodes follow a three-act structure: chaotic banter and listener mail, a central "psychoeducation" segment from Dr. Conner, and personal reflections from all hosts. The dynamic is defined by frequent interruptions, inside jokes, and a deliberately unpolished, humorous presentation.

Signature segments

  • · Three-part episode structure (Banter, Psychoeducation, Reflections)
  • · Reading listener correspondence
  • · Humorous and insulting host introductions
  • · Self-deprecating references to the podcast's quality
  • · "What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?"
