What do you get when 4,000 blind and low-vision people descend on Austin, Texas in the middle of summer? In Episode 16 of Changing the Narrative, Murray Elbourne and Elizabeth Rouse dive headfirst into everything you need to know about the National Federation of the Blind's 2026 National Convention. From the Rookie Roundup to the exhibit hall, division meetings to general sessions, they walk through all six days of the action-packed schedule and break down why this gathering is so much more than a conference. Along the way, they make a passionate case for getting involved in NABS, swap stories about chaotic street crossings in New Orleans, tease a mysterious mock trial, and somehow end up planning a Dancing with the Stars: Blind Edition debut. There's also a dramatic tale of tie recovery from a Coyote Ugly bar, a firm refusal to join a fantasy baseball league, and a 28% spike in listenership to celebrate. Whether you're a convention veteran or a curious first-timer, this episode is your insider's guide to the biggest week in the blindness community.
