Blindseye Podcast

When somebody on the other side of the world is able to help you through your phone camera!

On this weeks’ episode I let you listen to me use some of the most common specialised apps I use on my phone. The GPS apps that allow me to pin-point a particular establishment and walk me strait to it. The app that allows someone to take a photo for me as it’s difficult to do it myself. The apps that allowed me to explore the surrounds of my hotel in San Fran cisco before I got there so I wouldn’t miss out, and the app that can recognise everything from barcodes on groceries, to currency and faces so I always have a handle on what is going on.

On this weeks’ episode I talk about the issues of sex education, sex health and everything else related as it refers to blindness. Where there are some issues in this area and how this impacts on being healthy, safe and fulfilled. How do you know the anatomy if you have never seen it? How do you access contraception, privately and without embarrassment with correct instructions? How do you get the right information when it’s a topic most people don’t feel comfortable discussing and much more.

Cooking without vision without burning the place down or killing yourself in the process!

On this last episode for the year I talk about how I learned to cook safely and creatively in the kitchen. Particularly how everyday appliances used in neat ways can get the same outcome without needing specialised equipment. How I accidentally melted popcorn to the microwave because I couldn’t feel the right button and when the urge strikes you only to realise your talking scales battery is flat. Plus, more!

What happens when you need help to vote and the person helping you does not like who you pick?

On this weeks’ episode I discuss the different ways and challenges to voting within Australia. Particularly how do you vote in secret like everyone else if someone needs to assist you and all that goes along with the entire process.

On average 70% of blind and low vision people in the Western world are unemployed despite wanting to and being able to work. On this weeks’ episode on international day of people with a disability I discuss my experiences with work. Speaking to career advisors who didn’t understand how I could work, whether to disclose or not your disability in the interview process and what happens. Using job agencies that advertise their expertise in this area only to tick boxes or have a case worker who doesn't know how you can use a computer even though they are your supposed gateway to a job. Most importantly the impact it has on your self-worth, long term unemployment, financial independence and security, emotional and physical.

What happens when the person helping you find your luggage in an airport doesn’t speak English and you don’t know what your bag looks like? Hilarity ensues!

On this weeks’ episode I talk about going to berlin with an accessible travel company.  Language barriers, feeling machine gun holes from WW2,  using my cane to figure out how tall the berlin wall was and how the design of the Jewish Holocaust memorial really made an impression on me even though I couldn’t see it. Finally, I talk about what the importance of independent travel has done to my idea of what I thought possible.

On this weeks’ episode I talk about going on holiday to different parts of the world and how one company in particular made this a reality for me.

On this weeks’ show I counter the perception that guide dogs are machine like and always perfect. I talk about the conundrum between knowing when to trust your dog and knowing when you need to take over, as well as the idea that what makes guide dogs so good at their role can also be the thing that causes issues at times. Plus much more.
