coming up on reframed along with this
0:03
week's special guest Anya Christopherson
0:06
today we'll be discussing heartbreak
0:07
height which I'm so excited to do I
0:09
thought there were things like that that
0:11
made me uncomfortable but when I
0:13
reflected on it I was like that's
0:15
actually really how I feel disability is
0:17
treated that you'll like gaslighting
0:19
yourself into believing that you don't
0:21
need them
0:22
that's something we've been asking for
0:24
for like years and years and now all of
0:27
a sudden it's like possible in the click
0:28
of a finger so I think that's still a
0:30
long way to go but it's important
0:32
[Music]
0:36
okay
0:39
welcome back to reframed the podcast
0:41
that reframes how disabilities portrayed
0:43
in film and TV I'm your host Jason clymo
0:46
and today I have the wonderful Observer
0:48
Robin Lambert with me as my co-host
0:50
along with this week's special guest
0:52
Anja Christopherson
0:54
today we'll be discussing heartbreak
0:55
height which I'm so excited to do but
0:58
before we do let's say hey to Anya and
1:00
learn a little bit more about them so
1:02
welcome to the podcast Anya did you just
1:04
want to start off by letting us all know
1:05
a bit about you and what you do
1:08
absolutely it's such a pleasure to be
1:10
here I really struggle with the question
1:12
of what I do because I think like you
1:14
very probably do I wear a lot of hats
1:17
um so of course I'm a disability
1:19
Advocate
1:20
um from my own lived experience but I'm
1:23
also a social entrepreneur and I run my
1:25
own business called Champion health
1:26
agency where I represent people with
1:29
disability chronic illness and carers to
1:31
professionalize their lived experience
1:33
and create change using it which is
1:35
really exciting and cool
1:37
um and then of course on top of that do
1:39
my own consultancy I wrote a book when I
1:42
was 18 and yeah a few other things but
1:45
really all just lived experience driven
1:48
I love it and you're like just like a
1:50
few other things did you want to tell
1:52
everyone yeah I know all these amazing
1:55
things uh did you want to tell everyone
1:57
a little bit about the book that you
1:58
wrote as well
2:00
but yes there is called behind the smile
2:03
and I chose that because my disability
2:06
is predominantly invisible and so no one
2:08
really knew that I had a disability
2:10
growing up apart from my scars so I
2:13
wrote the book at 18 and I don't really
2:15
promote it much because I'm shy that you
2:18
know 18 year old me wrote this book that
2:20
they thought was so cool
2:22
um and now they wouldn't have
2:24
necessarily written the same thing
2:26
um so it basically told my story from
2:29
birth and all of these surgeries that I
2:31
had I've been growing up trying to find
2:34
my place in the world
2:36
um and deciding that that was in
2:38
modeling because I thought that the
2:40
fashion industry needed more
2:41
representation and how I navigated that
2:45
from an industry that wasn't accepting
2:47
of people that you know looked different
2:49
and I was someone that looked different
2:51
to them because I had scars
2:53
um so basically how I pushed through and
2:56
ended up walking at student Fashion Week
2:58
at 17 and that was a huge moment for my
3:01
career so it was really about that and
3:03
it basically stopped
3:05
um the book stopped when I started
3:06
getting into advocacy so it doesn't have
3:08
that component of my story
3:11
cool sounds like it might be time for a
3:13
bit of a sequel yeah
3:15
maybe maybe one day
3:18
yeah well you obviously wear a lot of
3:22
different hats but it's clear that
3:23
you're really passionate about
3:25
representation from all of the different
3:27
work you do
3:28
um we like to ask all of our guests why
3:30
they think genuine representation in
3:32
things like
3:33
um film and television is so important
3:35
so would you be able to sort of share
3:36
your thoughts on that
3:38
absolutely and I think it comes back to
3:41
that quote and I can't remember who said
3:42
it which is pretty embarrassing but it's
3:44
that you can't be what you can't see
3:46
yeah um so if you can't see someone that
3:49
looks like you or even embodies your
3:52
story in mainstream Media or television
3:55
or in my case as a child in modeling
3:57
which is what I was interested in you
3:59
don't think you can be it
4:01
um or on you know a board of directors
4:03
so I think it's so important to have
4:06
that there but what I realized through
4:07
my own experiences and fashion and you
4:09
know that's coming into even television
4:11
and things like that that if those
4:13
spaces aren't accessible for people that
4:16
actually have disabilities to work there
4:19
then it it is an inclusive environment
4:21
after all
4:23
um in the modeling scene for example
4:24
you'd have to work 12-hour days where
4:26
you wouldn't get you know a bottle of
4:28
water or a chair to sit down on
4:30
um and that wasn't sustainable for me
4:32
anymore so I realized that even though
4:34
they were giving me an opportunity to
4:35
show that I had a disability or I had
4:38
scars
4:39
um they weren't really giving me an
4:40
equitable opportunity to be there I was
4:42
having to sacrifice something of myself
4:45
um so I think there's still a long way
4:47
to go but it's important absolutely and
4:49
I think Robin and I can attest to that
4:51
we have both worked in the fashion
4:53
industry as well I think it's a really
4:55
great industry to
4:57
get into and like really understand
5:00
what's wrong with the industry for one
5:02
but two to get that kind of
5:05
um
5:07
mainstream like modern recognition
5:10
amongst like young adults I think
5:12
fashion is like really important for
5:15
that
5:16
um you know it launches careers we know
5:17
that
5:19
um and I think it's a very
5:20
impressionable industry too so it's like
5:22
I mean it really realistically dictates
5:24
what is like considered to be cool so I
5:27
think fashion still has such a long way
5:29
to go in terms of actually making it
5:31
like you've said more accessible
5:32
Equitable even just feasible for some
5:35
people with disability to actually work
5:36
in and I'm talking like in front of the
5:39
camera behind the camera in production
5:41
everywhere
5:43
um
5:44
but yeah it is exciting I think when you
5:46
see like really great mainstream fashion
5:48
representation as well but I totally
5:51
hear where you're coming from I guess
5:53
like one thing I really like to ask of
5:54
guests as well is
5:56
you know of course it's really important
5:58
to see people or or you know have that
6:03
representation on screen for yourself
6:04
but do you see or understand if there's
6:07
like any benefits for like wider society
6:09
and representing people with disability
6:11
I think that there is because I think
6:14
it's so hard to understand
6:16
what a life of disability is truly like
6:21
um there are so many misconceptions and
6:23
there are so many biases and I think
6:25
breaking down those biases helps to
6:28
really demystify disability and I feel
6:30
like that's where a lot of the stigma
6:32
and the Discrimination comes in due to
6:35
misunderstanding and if that
6:37
misunderstanding can be cleared by
6:40
people not only being seen but by
6:42
actually having a voice and being able
6:44
to tell their stories I mean that's why
6:46
you know the whole team comes in by
6:48
having creatives that can write and
6:50
produce and all of that as well
6:52
um I think that's where the power really
6:53
lies did you find as well after you sort
6:56
of wrote your book and shared your story
6:57
in obviously a lot of detail did your
7:00
relationships with certain people change
7:02
and did certain people understand
7:04
perhaps your experience more and and why
7:06
you know the way you see the world is
7:08
the way you see the world absolutely I
7:11
had people in my family that had
7:13
obviously known me since I was born look
7:16
at me in a complete different way and
7:18
friends that I've gone through High
7:19
School were seem in a completely
7:21
different way and understand me
7:24
um differently as well because there's
7:26
one thing being around someone that has
7:29
a disability and that's a whole another
7:31
thing being able to try and see the
7:32
world through their eyes yeah and from
7:34
their perspective and I think that's
7:36
what my book enabled them to see and
7:38
understand
7:40
um so I think it's so easy at least for
7:42
me to try and pretend that things are
7:44
okay
7:45
um when they're not or say that you know
7:48
I don't necessarily have access needs or
7:51
things like that um but also it gives
7:54
you a different perspective on life
7:56
um and that perspective is really
7:57
valuable to share because everyone can
7:58
learn from it yeah and I feel like I was
8:00
talking about this with one of our
8:02
previous guests as well about how like
8:04
people with disability are like um
8:07
like Masters at adjusting to our
8:10
surroundings and also then we took this
8:13
whole conversation and we're not a bit
8:14
of a tangent it was like almost like uh
8:16
self-therapy but uh we went on this kind
8:19
of like tangent about like how that is
8:22
just in so much conflict like like all
8:24
those like adjustments that we make in
8:27
order to like
8:28
fit in as much as possible with Society
8:31
is literally directly at odds with our
8:34
own like self-care all of the time to
8:37
the point where I was saying that I'm
8:39
building a house right now and I was
8:41
like do I really need these
8:42
modifications like nobody else is going
8:45
to want them it's going to be really bad
8:46
for resale and then I just had to have
8:48
this moment of realization where I was
8:49
just like
8:50
yes you need them like you have just
8:53
been like struggling through all of
8:54
these things for so long in like
8:57
inaccessible environments that you'll
8:59
like gaslighting yourself into believing
9:01
that you don't need them
9:08
with that with like Telehealth and all
9:10
of these other things and it was like oh
9:11
that's not something we've been asking
9:13
for for like years and years and now all
9:16
of a sudden it's like possible in a
9:17
click of a finger yeah exactly and it's
9:20
like all of these things actually are
9:22
possible and in some like many many ways
9:26
like for example like one really simple
9:28
solution that I think everybody would
9:30
agree to is like you know for example
9:32
like office workers not forcing staff to
9:35
come into offices but they found that
9:37
people were like a lot more effective
9:39
efficient like we're achieving better
9:41
results yeah productive and also saves
9:44
cost so it's like a lot of this actually
9:46
makes a lot of sense across the board
9:48
it's not just a specific solution for a
9:51
specific group of people and I mean on
9:54
that too like we're roughly 20 of the
9:56
population so it's like I think we're a
9:58
big enough group of people to
10:00
like make specific adjustments for too
10:02
by the way
10:03
you would hope so and I think it's
10:06
ultimately when it becomes appealing for
10:08
the majority Suddenly It's adopted and I
10:12
was at the national disability strategy
10:14
Forum recently and someone raised a
10:16
really good point around you know
10:18
Universal Design and how way back when
10:21
they used to have showers that were
10:23
stepped down showers and that was just
10:25
the trend it was every child was a
10:27
step-down shower and then suddenly
10:29
someone decided that they were ugly and
10:32
they just made all of them you know you
10:34
just go straight into the shower
10:36
um and that was Universal Design but the
10:39
change was because people thought it was
10:40
ugly yeah um so basically we just need
10:42
to like manipulate Society into
10:44
believing that all these like Unity
10:46
Universal Design features are actually
10:48
really trendy trendy I was literally I
10:52
was like literally having the same
10:53
conversation with my friend the other
10:54
day I was like man a dream accessible
10:56
shower is just like a rich person's
10:58
shower where it's like flat there's a
11:00
bench in there so they can like steam
11:01
yeah
11:04
just like just like rich people stuff
11:06
and like the one screen so there's like
11:08
not actually like two screens or like no
11:10
screens it's just like a slight slightly
11:13
inclined um or declined space the water
11:16
drains like nicely oh my God I love it
11:23
uh well I've Loved learning a bit more
11:25
about you and your experiences I know
11:27
but I think it's now time for us to
11:29
start chatting about our show for today
11:31
which is heartbreak High very excited to
11:34
chat about this one Robin did you want
11:36
to kick us off with a bit of a synopsis
11:45
and it is a high school comedy drama
11:49
um follows the drama and the exploits
11:53
and all of the typical things that
11:55
happen in a house School drama I guess a
11:57
particular interest to us there is an
12:01
autistic character called Quinny played
12:03
by um Chloe Hayden who is also an
12:05
autistic
12:06
um and yeah let's get into that and how
12:09
that is portrayed
12:11
my vet and there did you want to uh kick
12:13
us off with some of your thoughts about
12:15
heartbreak High
12:17
I really really enjoyed this so I
12:21
watched it in full
12:22
um and then I half re-watched it as well
12:25
to try and get some more insights and
12:27
just to make sure I didn't miss anything
12:28
but I thought that it was beautifully
12:32
played by Chloe
12:34
um and my understanding is that Chloe
12:35
actually was able to write
12:36
it as well
12:38
um I found at the beginning it to be a
12:42
little bit jarring that or how you know
12:45
Quinny was treated by people around her
12:47
at times
12:49
um a little bit dismissed and you know
12:51
in particular there was that one scene
12:54
where you know there were pre-drinks
12:56
before
12:57
um
12:58
Mardi Gras was it Sasha didn't come to
13:01
the pre-drink she went to a different
13:03
pre-drinks
13:05
um Queenie got upset she was waiting in
13:07
line and then Sasha came and was like oh
13:09
are you just stimming and I thought my
13:13
goodness that's so dismissive because
13:14
anyone I think would be pissed off if
13:17
their partner just ditched them that has
13:21
nothing to do with disability and it was
13:23
pinned on disability so I thought there
13:25
were things like that that made me
13:27
uncomfortable but when I reflected on it
13:30
I was like that's actually really how I
13:32
feel disability is treated yeah um and
13:34
so it's a really accurate representation
13:37
um so I thought that it was played
13:39
really well and written really well yeah
13:42
I've got to fully agree with you and
13:44
I've probably got to put my hand up and
13:45
say I could be a bit biased
13:47
um good friends with Chloe so I do know
13:50
a little bit as well about like yeah I
13:53
you know I guess all actors do have
13:56
control in like creating and crafting
13:59
their character
14:01
um but they just got it so right and
14:03
Chloe was very much involved in that
14:05
process to make it so right
14:09
um I think you're on the money as well
14:10
like some parts I was like holy
14:12
that's like a
14:13
no but I don't think it was like really
14:15
aggressive forms of ableism right like
14:18
super blatant like like not that I
14:21
remember from watching it
14:23
um but it was that really kind of like
14:25
nuanced stuff where it's like yeah this
14:27
person is treating you not even
14:30
differently but like I guess treating
14:32
you as like
14:35
this person who has disability who
14:39
everything that must be going on in your
14:42
life must be related to disability and I
14:44
think it's this like inadvertent form of
14:46
ableism that lots of non-disabled people
14:49
and other disabled people too by the way
14:52
like project on other disabled people
14:55
without realizing they're doing it
14:57
sometimes and I think that some of the
15:00
most harmful stuff like for me all of
15:03
the time I just get people that are just
15:05
like oh it's so great to see you at this
15:08
party or something like and then
15:10
obviously I get all of the
15:12
follow-up questions like what happened
15:14
blah blah blah and I'm like oh my God so
15:18
it's like
15:20
it's one of those clear moments where
15:21
you're like okay
15:23
I just clearly can't exist in this space
15:26
in the way that I just like wanted to
15:28
go to this party and just be me
15:30
without like I'm I don't believe in the
15:33
whole like don't see the disability sort
15:35
of thing like I'm like see the person in
15:37
the disability but also just like
15:39
see the person as disability all
15:42
entwined and you don't need to
15:44
constantly just always ask about
15:46
disability or assume that everything
15:47
that's going on in their life revolves
15:49
around their disability
15:51
um and I think they encompassed that
15:53
really well in heartbreak high in that
15:55
relationship with Sasha
15:58
um
15:59
and I think Quinny like found her voice
16:01
really well too
16:03
but anyway this is not my TED Talk Robin
16:05
what were your thoughts
16:09
[Laughter]
16:15
done and I I really liked that they
16:18
didn't lean into those stereotypes that
16:20
they tend to when portraying um autistic
16:23
characters like she wasn't a savant or
16:25
this like character Representatives
16:27
being very childlike
16:29
um you know and it wasn't like this over
16:31
the top thing that we've like seen in
16:33
some other shows maybe like the good
16:34
doctor and things like that yeah she was
16:37
with and without the autism I thought
16:39
like she was a pretty relatable
16:40
character yeah um which which was
16:43
awesome and I also liked how they didn't
16:45
skim over like showing things like how
16:47
she had to mask when she went to parties
16:49
and how you know she might experience
16:51
sensory overload or there might be like
16:53
sensory differences between her and a
16:55
partner that might cause like issues in
16:57
relationships but it's something you can
16:58
work through
17:00
um yeah so I just thought she was like
17:01
really probably one of the most
17:03
well-rounded autistic characters that
17:05
I've seen portrayed so far
17:07
100 degree agree and it's
17:10
comes down to the fact that like clearly
17:13
we know that behind the scenes Chloe had
17:15
control over lived experience lived
17:18
experience and that lived experience
17:19
because Chloe had agency and actually
17:22
you know forming this character really
17:24
well
17:26
actually you portrayed on screen in this
17:28
super genuine way whereas you know when
17:31
non-disabled people are just like fully
17:34
in control of creating these disabled
17:35
characters it's like
17:37
oh my God you're only scratching the
17:39
surface here and yeah no like the thing
17:42
like kind of what you were saying Robin
17:43
that you know with or without autism the
17:46
character was you know this really
17:48
interesting character that people could
17:49
relate to was because they did the work
17:51
to make the character multi-dimensional
17:53
like it wasn't just like this is Quinny
17:56
and she has autism and like that's it
17:59
and everything that happens in in
18:01
quinny's whole character Arc is just
18:02
related to their experiences of
18:04
disability No in fact it was like pretty
18:07
much the opposite and then their
18:08
experiences of disability were just kind
18:10
of like slotted in
18:14
is every person is multifaceted right
18:17
like yeah different identity
18:20
they are as opposed
18:22
to experiences
18:23
things you know you might be a woman you
18:26
might be queer you might be disabled
18:27
like you know there's there's so many
18:29
things that make up a person and I think
18:31
that was yeah that was one of the things
18:33
that I appreciated the most yeah I agree
18:35
yeah and I like that it wasn't you know
18:38
announced that this is our character
18:39
with a disabilities
18:41
you know like we're so proud that we've
18:44
got a character with a disability and
18:46
this is the one
18:47
so I feel like exactly as you were
18:50
saying Robin there were relatable
18:52
character regardless of that they were
18:55
the person with a disability or not I
18:58
feel like anyone could relate to Quinny
19:01
um and I think that was what was so
19:03
beautiful about it and just the Nuance
19:06
of being able to integrate you know
19:08
those moments of sensory overwhelm with
19:11
the moments of you know pure joy and
19:14
excitement and friendship and going to
19:16
these parties and I just loved that
19:20
there were those you know moments of
19:22
great friendship and that when he called
19:24
out ableism as well like I've never
19:26
heard that happen the TV show before
19:29
like ever so good
19:32
I think as well like what you've touched
19:34
on there and yeah as well with like
19:35
their friendships like one thing I
19:37
thought was like really good was kind of
19:40
how they showcased non like you know a
19:43
non-disabled friend like supporting a
19:46
disabled friend in a certain way
19:49
um but also the relationship dynamic
19:51
because it's not just like you know for
19:53
the non-disabled people out there that
19:55
might not have disabled friends it's not
19:56
that you're just constantly going to be
19:58
supporting them it's a
20:00
relationship like you support each other
20:02
back
20:03
um so I thought that was like really
20:05
well done as well
20:07
um
20:08
oh I've forgotten her name
20:10
quinny's like best friend but like some
20:12
of the ways like they supported Queenie
20:15
really well like just like parties and
20:16
things like taking to a quiet place like
20:18
getting in the bath I thought it was
20:19
hilarious
20:20
um all of that kind of stuff I just
20:22
thought was like
20:23
brilliantly done
20:24
um and it wasn't just totally not making
20:26
a big deal about it as a best friend
20:29
would just know those things like and
20:31
that's the difference between this
20:33
representation versus like the good
20:34
doctor because like the good doctor it's
20:36
like when these things happen of course
20:38
it's got to be right in the middle of
20:40
like a surgery and everyone's like what
20:41
do we do and it's like really like is
20:44
that really what would happen in the
20:45
real world everyone would just freak out
20:47
and run around not knowing what to do
20:49
like I think
20:50
somewhere in that organization they
20:53
probably have like a support network set
20:55
up for this autistic person to actually
20:57
do their job really really well like
20:59
that would be the realistic approach to
21:02
this whole scenario but obviously that
21:04
doesn't work for the good doctor's
21:05
entertainment value but uh I thought
21:07
yeah executed really well in heartbreak
21:09
High to be perfectly honest
21:12
um did we think were there any moments
21:13
where you were kind of like wish that
21:15
didn't happen or or anything that you
21:17
think they could like improve on
21:18
possibly for like future seasons
21:21
oh because they did it so well yeah like
21:24
they're really yeah
21:26
but something something that
21:27
is a bit away from Quinny that I found
21:30
to be interesting because I have complex
21:32
trauma I found it really interesting
21:34
caches
21:36
um you know relationship with trauma and
21:38
like about sexual trauma not wanting to
21:40
be intimate and I thought that that
21:42
integration into heartbreak high was
21:45
interesting because I hadn't seen that
21:47
represented in TV before in such a way
21:50
yeah
21:51
um so I'm looking forward to seeing how
21:53
that's explored further and I'm not sure
21:56
if they use like the term asexual at all
21:59
but I think like
22:00
they they obviously like play into this
22:03
realm of like asexuality as well that is
22:05
just never explored like I think I've
22:07
seen it in like two shows ever in my
22:09
whole entire life of like watching a
22:11
ton of TV and film so I'm like I
22:14
think that's really important for a
22:16
whole group of people to see this
22:17
represented represented
22:24
complex issues quite well oh God yeah
22:26
yeah
22:28
gave them a lot to think about
22:32
yeah I'm like what am i 27 and I was
22:35
like holy this is hectic
22:37
yeah but like super entertaining at the
22:40
same time
22:43
they definitely did like the whole like
22:45
Australian Euphoria without like all the
22:48
glitter uh really well I think
22:52
absolutely it made me feel really old
22:54
and like I missed out on a whole lot
22:59
of time I was like
23:01
made me feel nostalgic of the days where
23:04
you made like those Maps where
23:07
you're like oh this person kissed this
23:09
person and I'm like do they still do
23:10
that surely they don't still do that at
23:13
school now like that have like a more
23:14
complicated way where there's like a
23:16
website like some code it's on the iPad
23:18
and it yeah it gets sent into the cloud
23:20
it's just a massive group chat on
23:22
messenger
23:23
well they learn coding in school these
23:25
days someone probably developed an app
23:27
yeah yeah yeah it would be an app 100
23:29
yeah someone would have set up an app
23:31
that's so funny
23:36
cool well I think it's time for us to
23:38
give our scores for heartbreak high on
23:40
our inclusive disability representation
23:42
scale for those who are just joining us
23:44
for the first time this episode this is
23:47
a completely made upscale it doesn't
23:49
actually mean anything in the real world
23:51
other than reflecting and embodying our
23:54
thoughts on heartbreak high five out of
23:56
five is like
23:58
the best disability representation we've
24:00
seen in our lives and zero or negative
24:03
numbers if you feel that way inclined is
24:05
uh really really bad so why don't we
24:07
kick off with you Robin what did you
24:09
give heartbreak High out of five on our
24:11
IDR scale
24:13
um I gave it
24:17
a fun you know things that were wrong
24:20
with it and obviously yeah I'm looking
24:21
forward to the second season to see how
24:23
things develop even more and I just
24:25
didn't want to give it a five because
24:27
you know I'm hoping things get even
24:29
better yes
24:30
you can't keep five five is perfect yeah
24:33
five minutes you can't get perfect
24:37
Anya
24:39
unfortunately stole my justification in
24:42
my school but yeah
24:44
it is 4.5 as well
24:46
um it's basically as close to perfect as
24:49
I can imagine but I'm looking forward to
24:51
seeing what more
24:53
um Can Happen for Quinny and with
24:56
Chloe's you know creative career
24:59
um as Quinny so she's just skyrocketing
25:01
it's crazy yeah it's incredible yeah uh
25:05
well I gave it a four and a half as well
25:07
but for slightly different reasons
25:08
because I mean it's epic representation
25:12
um probably my main thing was that I'd
25:13
love to see like a bit more
25:15
representation and like a variety of
25:17
disability rep I kind of thought surely
25:20
there's not just like one disabled
25:21
person at the school
25:22
um you know in that kind of large
25:25
friendship group when we are talking
25:26
like 20 of the population
25:29
um
25:30
and I know reflecting on the industry
25:32
where it's at right now it's like this
25:34
is like gold standard but I'm
25:36
like let's push it further I'm like
25:37
that's why I'm not giving it a five
25:39
because I'm like five is like yeah
25:40
you've done everything you can do
25:42
um whereas I'm like four and a half like
25:44
we're celebrating that you've done a
25:45
really freaking good job but that point
25:47
five is let's get more disability rep
25:50
out there so
25:52
um they're my thoughts
25:55
