S1E1 – Tuesday Topics with Paul Edwards: Covid 19 and Blindness


Hi, I’m Paul Edwards! For those of you who have been ACB Radio aficionados for many years, there will be a vague memory of an old and venerable show called “Tuesday Topics” which I hosted every week for a couple of years a long time ago. Well, Tuesday Topics is back and I hope many of you who used to join us will be back again! For those of you who are new to the show, here is what it’s all about. Each week we choose a single topic and spend an hour talking about it. I get us started with an overview and often feature a guest or two who receive a special interview. Then we open it up for debate and end with a kind of summary of where we have arrived.

It worked well several years ago and I think it will work well again! Obviously, the first show is about our experience with the virus. However, we want to focus on how blind people are equipped to cope with the pandemic. What advantages do we as blind people have dealing with the virus? What disadvantages operate for us? What could make coping easier? What are we most concerned about from the perspective of people who are blind?

These are just some of the questions that we will explore when Tuesday Topics once again takes to the net.
