Dis-labled: Disabled Voices, Real Stories

The Cost of Happiness, Restaurant Nightmares & Carol Time!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today we’re asking the big question: How much does the journey to happiness really cost? Carol shares a moving poem on emotions, while Julia and Nadine bring a hilarious Talking Tale about a diner’s argument with a confused waiter. The group swaps dining-out stories, uncovers what a “Sharon” is—and Carol takes the mic solo for the first time, with surprising results.
