Jonathan MosenThis year, I will have been podcasting for 22 years, since the very beginning of this form of content delivery. I love it, and I enjoy sharing what I know about the process of making podcasts, as well as learning from others.
Some time ago, I started an email list for blind people creating podcasts, or for those who would like advice about getting into podcasting.
I’ve been hosting this on its own domain, but in recent times, increasingly, self-hosted Mailman solutions are being hit with delivery problems, particularly to Microsoft-hosted email addresses.
These problems can take a lot of effort to troubleshoot, and my schedule doesn’t permit devoting too much time to it. So I have decided to move the group to a professionally run email group provider, which handles these things because groups are all they do.
Unfortunately, over the last month or two, we’ve lost all the people who were subscribed via Microsoft addresses, but I am hoping word of mouth will eventually get everyone back.
So, if you were once on the group but got bounced off, or this is the first time you’ve heard about it and would like to be a part of it, here is the URL with a simple sign-up form to become part of the Blind Podcasters group.

Steve Wozniak on Apple’s 50 Years, Accessibility, and the Future of Tech
I wanted to view the #Artemis mission data at a glance in an accessible way. So I created myself a dashboard. Including, among other things, a sonified live flight path. Vibecoded this within 2 hours so its likely full of bugs, also a lot of the live data from Nasa is not live yet. If you want, you can check it out here.

If, like me, you are #blind and following the #artemis2 launch, AI can play a wonderful role in bringing it to life. NASA is displaying graphics on the screen showing various progress and status indicators. If you have a phone capable of Apple Intelligence, put the YouTube feed into full screen, then ask Siri to describe the screen. This will send a screenshot to ChatGPT and it will give you a detailed description of the graphics.
You can also achieve something similar on a PC using PictureSmart in JAWS and similar tools.
I have longed for the day when humans continued our journey in space. Super excited about today.
