The Blind Chick

Blindness Can Be an Adventure: Canes, Baseball, and Disability Pride


Listen Later

Summary 

Penn and Moses are catching listeners up on a full summer of memories, baseball, travel, disability pride, and the small choices that can make life feel bigger. Penn shares how a monocular has helped her follow baseball games more fully, while Moses takes the usual scenic route through history, Hemingway, and childhood Pirates stories. 

Listener Johnny Johnson's email opens a conversation about Innervision, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and the power of connection in the Blind and Low-vision community. The conversation then turns to Blind Pilots, the upcoming Winter Park hike with No Barriers USA, and a Camp Abilities experience where the right cane—and the right story—changed how kids saw mobility. 

Penn and Moses also talk about Braille, disability pride, accessible technology, and why difference should not be treated as something to hide. It is a funny, wandering, deeply human episode about choosing memories, using the tools that create freedom, and believing that blindness can still be an adventure.
