Did Casey Kasem have a little Asperger's Syndrome? Especially because you can hear his voice was very "aspie".

I know what a "raspie voice" sounds like. But I've never heard/heard of an "aspie voice". :lol:

I think Scooby sounded more autistic than Shaggy. But really that girl with the glasses, whatever her name, was totally aspie.

He is dead. Since diagnosis of an autistic spectrum disorder requires engaging the subject and direct observation... there is no way to say yes or no

Anyone can do a "Shaggy" voice.

So...besides this nonexistent "aspie voice phenom" what reason do you have for thinking that Kasey Kasem was an aspie?
