Peter and Patrick are joined by special guest Jenny Godley to discuss ASL and Deaf culture. The discussion starts with a discussion on the Oscar-winning movie CODA and the following topics:
What would you suggest to someone who wants to learn ASL?
How does someone become an interpreter and have you ever thought about being an interpreter?
With technology to allow speech-to-text captioning do you think interpreters will become unnecessary or a thing of the past for events other than live in-person presentations?
What are the challenges that can happen when a person who is deaf or hard of hearing has a meeting with a doctor or a lawyer?
What is the difference between a video phone and telephonic interpretation or video remote interpreting?
