Twenty-First Century Disability
Let's be honest. Life with a disability can be difficult. Luckily, we are living in the twenty-first century. This podcast is about how living in the modern world has helped people with disabilities to have fairly "normal" lives. Join me as we explore why this is and as I try to look at disability from a social model perspective and change how the world sees disability.

Parasports In the Community
The Paralympic Games is an amazing event. However, when they are done these amazing adaptive sports virtually disappear. This episode of Twenty-First Century Disability looks at these parasports from a community, or grassroots level. This episode follows three parasports that are available in Ottawa, Canada. These parasports are powerhockey, wheelchair fencing, and adaptive boxing.
