About DisNewsYouknow Podcast

Welcome to the DisNewsYouKNow Podcast, my name is Marlon and the aim of this sound capsule is to talk about disability news in the UK. To explore the stories and give a little analysis. Although there are news sites out there for disability news. Disabled people and news that affects our lives is still underreported and generally as many of us already know we are underrepresented in the media. So the aim of this podcast is a little effort to try and address this balance.
