Joy Keys chats with Ben Brown creator of the Tourette's Podcast

Ben Brown is the creator of Tourette’s Podcast, a weekly podcast sponsored by the Tourette Association of America. On the show, Ben talks with strangers who have Tourette Syndrome — sometimes it’s their first time talking openly about it — to learn how they’ve dealt with it, what still challenges them, and how their identities are shaped by it all. Ben was diagnosed with TS when he was a little kid and hid his disorder from his friends and coworkers until his late 30s. Opening up changed everything. Ben, who lives in North Carolina, is a former newspaper journalist working today as a photographer, podcaster and writer.
