<p>On this show we are speaking to super-duper influencer, Jessie Anderson all about accessible gaming. Not even 'Skinny Pete' from the TV series Breaking Bad knows as much about video games and consoles as Jessie. A veteran of the ATARI 2600 and Apple 2, Jessie walks us through how a blind or partially sighted person can navigate the world of gaming. More importantly, he tells us how to play some of the most popular games out there at the moment, using screen readers and magnifiers. Yes folks, we're talking all the favourites here; Call of Duty, Mortal Combat, Card World, Doom, Quake, The Last of Us, Forza Motor Sport, and the MODs which are the modifications that some gamers have done to make other games accessible.</p> <p>Whether you have an X-Box, PlayStation 5, or a PC, we've got you covered!</p> <p>Don’t forget to email us on <a href="mailto:BlindGuysChat@gmail.com" rel="nofollow">BlindGuysChat@gmail.com</a> about what games you enjoy, and what your experience has been with accessible games.</p> <p>So, pop on your racing suit and helmet, keep a sharp eye/ear out for the secret loot stash, and press restart on the number one podcast game as recently voted by the zombies’ weekly newsletter: Blind Guys Chat. 16 out of 20 gamers prefer it to finger twitches!</p> <p>Links discussed in the show:</p> <p>·       Jessie's website: <a href="https://www.illegallysighted.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.illegallysighted.com/</a></p> <p>·       Jessie's channel: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/illegallysighted" rel="nofollow">www.youtube.com/illegallysighted</a></p> <p>·       Accessible MOD for Doom: <a href="https://alando1.itch.io/toby-accessibility-mod-v90-rc1" rel="nofollow">https://alando1.itch.io/toby-accessibility-mod-v90-rc1</a></p> <p>·       The Last of Us part 2: <a href="https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/the-last-of-us-part-ii/accessibility/" rel="nofollow">https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/the-last-of-us-part-ii/accessibility/</a></p> <p>·       Forza Motor Sport:<a href="https://support.forza.net/hc/en-us/articles/46524064744851-Forza-Motorsport-Accessibility-Support" rel="nofollow">https://support.forza.net/hc/en-us/articles/46524064744851-Forza-Motorsport-Accessibility-Support</a></p> <p>·       Game info site: <a href="http://www.audiogames.net" rel="nofollow">www.audiogames.net</a></p> <p>·       Game info site 2: <a href="https://caniplaythat.com/" rel="nofollow">https://caniplaythat.com/</a></p> <p>Support Blind Guys Chat by contributing to their tip jar: <a href="https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/blind-guys-chat" rel="payment nofollow">https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/blind-guys-chat</a></p><p><a href="https://pnc.st/s/blind-guys-chat/6f0927b6/151-boomer-shooters-/transcript">Read transcript</a></p><hr>

#150: Disco Nap!

<p>In honour of Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind celebrating 50 years in being, we've got a round table discussion on this show with 2 guide dog owners and a guide dog puppy raiser. Mo has news on the latest JAWS 2026 update, which includes the option to save your settings in the cloud. And Jan and Mo are about to fight it out as The Netherlands face-off with Morocco in the World Cup. Spoiler Alert; It's already happened guys!</p> <p>So, turn off the World Cup for a few minutes, prepare yourself a nice Gin and tonic, and give Blind Guys Chat a whirl. </p> <p>The official sponsor of the 2027 'Kitten chasing a ball of string', World Cup! </p> <p>Support Blind Guys Chat by contributing to their tip jar: <a href="https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/blind-guys-chat" rel="payment nofollow">https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/blind-guys-chat</a></p><p><a href="https://pnc.st/s/blind-guys-chat/f90a31b4/150-disco-nap-/transcript">Read transcript</a></p><hr>

#149: Scotland 3, FIFA AD 1, Water Breaks 8

<p>As the world becomes more and more immersed in the FIFA 2026 World Cup, the Blind Guys assess FIFA’s audio description service for the games. Is it better than standard commentary or is it an own goal for FIFA?</p> <p>Jan and Mo have been on a second date, and as usual they had chaperones; this time in the guise of former 'Big Cheese' at Vispero, Eric Damery and his lovely wife Pauline. The guys accepted no guilt for ordering 2 lobster salads and then running for the hills before the bill arrived!</p> <p>Clodagh's got email questions about digital menus and QR codes, and a question about accessible gaming. If you’ve got big feelings (or small feelings) about accessible gaming, please get in touch – you might be included in a future episode about this topic! Email blindguyschat@gmail.com and tell us all.</p> <p>Finally, if you would like to hear and contribute to the next Audio Description Association VI User Group meeting, here are the details:</p> <p>The next ADA VI user group will see Óran O’Neill speaking with James Flanagan from FSE. Football Supporters Europe’s Disability &amp; Inclusion Fan Network is helping to ensure that supporters with disabilities have a stronger voice in shaping the future of football. James will talk to us about the vital role of Audio Descriptive Commentary in making football more accessible for blind and partially sighted fans, both in stadiums and on television. Drawing on his experience in disability inclusion and supporter advocacy, James tells us how accessible commentary can enhance the matchday experience and help ensure that football is truly a game for everyone.</p> <p>Time: Jun 23, 2026 01:30 PM Dublin (GMT)</p> <p>Join Zoom Meeting: <a href="https://tinyurl.com/ADAviUserGroup" rel="nofollow">https://tinyurl.com/ADAviUserGroup</a></p> <p>Meeting ID: 873 1982 7571</p> <p>So, strip down to your game jersey and shorts, run out into a field with painted white lines and prepare to listen to the best podcast this side of an overpriced subway train ticket: Blind Guys Chat - 18 out of 20 FIFA World Cup footballs prefer it to being kicked around!</p> <p><strong>Links for this show:</strong></p> <p>·       FIFA ADC app for iPhone: <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/fifa-audio-description/id6745691218" rel="nofollow">https://apps.apple.com/us/app/fifa-audio-description/id6745691218</a></p> <p>·       FIFA ADC app for Android: <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fifa.adc.app\&amp;hl=en_IE" rel="nofollow">https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fifa.adc.app\&amp;amp;hl=en_IE</a></p> <p>Support Blind Guys Chat by contributing to their tip jar: <a href="https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/blind-guys-chat" rel="payment nofollow">https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/blind-guys-chat</a></p><p><a href="https://pnc.st/s/blind-guys-chat/e72f8618/149-scotland-3-fifa-ad-1-water-breaks-8/transcript">Read transcript</a></p><hr>
