In this episode we learn how to become a delegate to political conventions, using guide dogs as guides in races instead of human beings, questions to ask before getting out of a car by yourself, apps to help find businesses in your area, and why buying a prosthetic eye can be a real trip.

The Tactile Traveler is hosted by Nick Isenberg. The goal of the program is to empower blind and low-vision people to explore the world, and help our sighted friends see the world in a new way.
