This is where you’ll find all of our old podcast episodes. It’s an archive that lets you to listen to every episode we’ve ever recorded. Each one of these podcast episodes highlights different but important issues within the disability community. We strive to make our community better and with every episode we record, we get closer to that goal. We challenge the “expected” of the disability community whenever possible, and some of our best episodes are the ones in which we must confront our own biases. Our podcast episodes are there to give you a look into the world of disability. These issues might not affect you, as a listener, so we try to offer a “behind the curtain” look.
We welcome you to listen to us, and hopefully you will have enjoyed listening as much as we’ve enjoyed creating this. Making these is a labor of love, and we’re happy you’re along for the ride with us.
