Phoebe Gates casually let slip that her father, Microsoft
co-founder Bill Gates, has Asperger's syndrome.
The 22-year-old Stanford student made the accidental disclosure
during a guest appearance on the hit podcast Call Her Daddy,
hosted by Alex Cooper.
While discussing what it's like to bring dates home to one
of the world's most recognizable - and reportedly awkward -
dads, Phoebe casually mentioned her father's medical condition.

Ummmmm ... GIANT surprise eh ? "Tech Nerds" commonly
fit that (ever-widening) def. They'd have classified
me like that if the term had existed way back when.
Did it prevent Bill from becoming and ultra-billionare ?
Married with children ? Internationally influential ?
Nope - not at all. Double that for Musk.
If you want good sci/tech people, people who can keep
up with China, people who can get you to Mars, then LOOK
for those with Asperger's. Joe Regular just won't have
the focus required.
MIGHT be better to check on the psych twits who invent
these categories for job security .......
As for the daughter - clearly NO clue as to what's
supposed to be public and private. More Gen-Z trash.
