Over 200 Hours
Welcome to Between Pages and Screens, where I talk about life, anime, books, and everything in between. Why I Started This Podcast * Audio commentary about disability, books, and anime * A way to practice my voice. I used to be able to talk 8 hours a day without flinching, but now it is a struggle to even do an hour of talking. * Show that daily living is still possible despite having a disability. Today’s Topics We will be continuing our discussion on the derecho that hit Indiana. In particular, we will be focusing on how my family and I have been faring and how things are in my community of Gary, IN. I know that it is a departure from the first two episodes I have put out, but I believe that it is important to raise more awareness about the issues that are happening because there are still thousands without power after the natural disaster. Please share this episode so more people can become aware of the situation happening in Gary. More eyes on this not only increases coverage, but it also creates social discourse that can lead to more help and aid for the city. To my fellow Hoosiers, I wish I could do more, but all I have is my voice to offer. Know that you are not alone and that there are still people monitoring this situation. Hopefully, more people talking about it will lead to more relief efforts.

Between Pages and Screens Episode 1: Trachs, Summer Anime Season, and Favorite Books in July
Welcome to the first episode of Between Pages and Screens, where I talk about life, anime, books, and everything in between. Why I Started This Podcast * Audio commentary about disability, books, and anime * A way to practice my voice. I used to be able to talk 8 hours a day without flinching, but now it is a struggle to even do an hour of talking. * Show that daily living is still possible despite having a disability. Today’s Topics * Lack of trach supplies over the last couple of months * My favorite summer season anime * My favorite books that I read in July I intend to keep the episodes focused on disability daily living, anime, books, and sometimes other topics that have caught my attention. I am not necessarily the ideal candidate to start a podcast with the way my voice sounds. I have been told that my voice sounds like Marge Simpson, who takes multiple pauses lol. However, I am optimistic that in future episodes, I will gradually improve my speaking to the point where I sound like my normal self. I hope listeners will join along this new adventure with me. If you have any thoughts or ideas about this episode or future ones, let me know in the comments. I would appreciate any feedback everyone has! Get full access to J.
