Monday's edition of The Blind Side puts the spotlight on Braille

The Blind Side is Mushroom FM's daily current affairs show from a blindness perspective.

Coming up on Monday's edition of The Blind Side, we talk about the show's future as we transition next week to a weekly podcast.

Mary Schnackenberg joins us to talk about the recent general assembly of the International Council on English Braille. We discuss the current state of the code, consider its relevance in today’s high-tech world, and we ask the question, why is it necessary to keep tampering with it.

Labelling gadgets and items around the house is an important blindness skill to make sure life goes smoothly. We look at three options for getting the job done.

You can hear The Blind Side on Mushroom FM at 7 PM Eastern time. It's repeated the following day at 10 AM Eastern. To find out when the show airs in your own time zone, check Mushroom FM's schedule page
