Host Crystal Hand and her Deaf friend Stephanie Kiessling discuss Deaf issues that are important today.  This episode covers hot topics like spoken language vs sign language, the role of hearing technology, deaf school vs. hearing school and what it is like growing up in a hearing family.  Stephanie gives us insight on the deaf perspective in a world that too often forces Deaf people to accommodate hearing peers and gives practical advice for families with deaf children on how to navigate raising them.
