Manage episode 487842411 series 3648965
Welcome back to another episode of AccessWorld, a podcast on digital inclusion and accessibility. In this episode, Aaron and Tony get geared up for summer, grabbing their sunglasses and getting ready to hit the water. Needless to say, access in outdoor recreation is a theme for this month’s episode, from navigating independently on the water as Tony reflects on his years of accessible sailing, to their choice of sunglasses as Tony and Aaron breakdown the latest update to the Ray Ban Meta glasses. They then remiss as well over 25 years of AccessWorld, and Aaron provides a rundown on articles from the latest issue published in late May.
