On the show this week, we’re continuing to profile Braille, following the recent General Assembly of the International Council on English Braille. I sat down for a fascinating conversation with Matthew Horspool, the Code Officer for the International Council on English Braille and General Manager of the Braillists Foundation. We’ll discuss the impact of his early Braille education, what does the ICEB Code officer actually do, and the critical work being done by the Braillists Foundation.
I just picked up a great new gadget ahead of our trip to the NFB convention. If you’re heading off for convention season, you may be interested in it too, so I’ll tell you all about the innovative AirCove Go router from ExpressVPN.

And I’ll share some personal reflections as a chapter of my life ends and there’s a blank page ahead of whatever the next chapter is.
