Life After Blindness welcomes back Maria Johnson from GirlGoneBlind.com to discuss the weeks news. The unintentional theme of this weeks news is all about children.
First, Tim and Maria talk about a new collaboration between the National Federation of the Blind and Kellogg’s rice crispy treats. You can now order free braille stickers with various sayings on them to put in your child’s lunch. You can also order a free “snack box” that can record an audio message for your child up to 10 seconds long.
Next up is a story about a new cane for toddlers. Developed by an orientation and mobility instructor, this cane is special because it is hands-free.
The last story that Tim talks to Maria about concerns blind triplets who have achieved the rank of Eagle Scout within the Boy Scouts. They were honored recently in Washington DC.
Tim then interviews the General Manager and Coach of the 2018 Beep Baseball World Series champion Indy Thunder, Darnell Booker. Darnell talks about the excitement over his team winning their 3rd straight World Series title. He also talks about beep baseball in general, what makes this team special and how the fans can get involved through the National Beep Baseball Association (NBBA).
Tim wraps up the podcast this week with another installment of Tim’s Tech Tips (T3). This week, Tim talks about new features that you can activate for the new Android Pi operating system on Google smart phones.
