After many nights of yapping over homemade cocktails about the perils of living in an ableist world, Nevé and Sam thought they would share their musings a little further. Tune in to hear two disabled girls make the world of disability funny, playful and worthwhile for non-disabled friends as well as those, like themselves, who also bump into things a lot.
Happy Halloween! Nevé and Sam get SPOOOOKY this week, talking about fears they have related to their disabilities. It goes a bit further than monsters under the bed.

The Narrative of Illness
Susanna Clarke, award-winning author of Piranesi, wrote in July this year that: "Illness brings us up against the limitation of words, reminds us that what we experience will always be greater than the words we have to describe it."
In this episode, Nevé and Sam talk about the monumental impact of stories around illness and the language that we use, with the help of the beautiful words of Clarke and Virginia Woolf.
