  • Can AI Help The Blind Create A Podcast

    In this episode of iCantCU, I talk about how AI can help blind people. I'll tell you exactly how it assisted me in getting an episode of White Canes Connect out very quickly. And in Just Listen, I'll show you the finished product. I also talk about some outstanding customer service I received from a specialty pharmacy when refilling a prescription. It was like I forgot how to use my iPhone's accessibility features while on the call.

  • Blind Boss Aaron Spelker From Mobile Accessible Games

    In this premiere episode of Blind Bosses, I learn about Mobile Accessible Games from Aaron Spelker. Aaron tells us about the freak accident that left him blind about three years ago. He talks about how a conversation with a blind man on a commuter train years before he went blind helped him get started with the accessibility features on the iPhone while still in the hospital. Aaron also explains what brought him to start writing reviews on accessible games. He also tells us how writing his first book helped him learn assistive technology.

  • Blind Ambition: Navigating Washington for Accessibility Rights

    In this episode of iCantCU, I talk about traveling to Washington to lobby congress as part of the NFB's annual Washington Seminar. In a first for me, I finally had a meeting with a congressman, not just their staff. It was a very productive couple of days in DC. While I didn't get a chance to do any sightseeing, I did sit in on the meetings with the staff of both Pennsylvania Senators. In Just Listen, there are clips from the trip to Washington, a clip from the monorail that goes under the Capitol to the Russell office building, and a sound bite from PA Senator Bob Casey.

  • Audio Description Success On Verizon FiOS

    In this episode of iCantCU, I talk about more time on the phone with Verizon to get audio description to work on FiOS. It only took hours of hold time on two separate calls to get to the tech support person who knew what audio description was and how to help a blind customer. Kudos to Kyle from Upstate New York for his outstanding help! Now, if only more shows had AD.

    In an expanded Just Listen, you'll hear two different versions of Southeastern Guide Dogs video titled Hope. One with audio description and one without AD. You can learn about the Florida-based organization at https://www.guidedogs.org.

  • Apple Genius Hates VoiceOver, I Don't Have That Luxury

    It was a horrendous week on the accessibility front for me. In this episode of iCantCU, I talk about my time at the Genius Bar at the Apple Store in Ardmore to get some help with my iPhone XR. Those folks may know a lot about the iPhone, but their lack of knowledge in VoiceOver was astounding. Trouble with American Express and Verizon completed the we-don't-know-how-to-deal-with-blind-customers trifecta. The big companies need some guidance.

  • Guide Dogs Without A Voice

    In this episode of iCantCU, I talk about a commercial for Southeastern Guide Dogs in which the only audio is a music track. After digging a little, I was told the spot has an Audio Description track. Not on my cable system. I also discuss continuing issues with my iPhone. And it's lunch with Ziggy in Just Listen.
