Episode 64:  I speak with Dr. Mike, the host and producer of the popular podcast, Pediacast.  It was a nice chance to talk to a pediatrician long after my son was diagnosed with autism. I wanted to ask him about how pediatricians look at autism today and if they are more effective at spotting it early. 

Episode 63:  I speak with Drs. Andrew Zimmerman and Laura Curran from the Kennedy Krieger Institute about autism and, believe it or not, fevers.  We discuss a recent study published in the journal Pediatrics.    You can read the full article here.
