Connor DeWolfe turned his COVID, Accutane, and breakup struggles into viral ADHD comedy sketches on TikTok.

Dan Jones hosts Connor DeWolfe, a TikTok influencer and actor, on The Aspie World podcast. Connor explains he was born in Michigan, raised in Kansas, and has been acting since fifth grade. He started making TikToks about his brain as a way to express emotions during a challenging period involving COVID, Accutane, and a breakup. His content features sketch comedy where he switches characters, a skill honed in high school forensics and debate. Dan mentions he started his channel after finding online Asperger's content overwhelmingly negative. Connor discusses his diagnosis, preferring the label 'neurodiverse' over specific conditions. He recently stopped taking Zoloft to manage anxiety naturally, describing himself as on a 'hippie' enlightenment search. Dan brings up Elon Musk as an example of neurodiversity, noting Musk gambled his last millions on Tesla and SpaceX and taught himself rocket engineering. They talk about the neurodivergent tendency for 'all or nothing' thinking and skipping steps. Both share experiences with impulsive spending and poor money management due to ADHD. Connor reveals his girlfriend handles his finances. They discuss neurodivergent home decor, with Dan mentioning a viral video of an ADHD-organized kitchen. Connor talks about his upcoming role in Disney's Mighty Ducks series, set to release in September. The conversation touches on self-care, with both emphasizing the importance of taking time in comfortable environments. They note synchronicities in their lives, like buying houses around the same time, suggesting a neurodivergent 'hive mind'. Dan proposes a series on his YouTube channel about the autism hive mind. The episode wraps with Connor promoting his social media handles and Disney project.
