Simply Amazing!
Basic Able provides such informative insight concerning relevant topics in disability culture in the most creative ways. There’s never a dull moment as humor consistently flows throughout the show. Whether you are well-versed in disability culture or you are listening to expand your horizon, there is something for every listener to take a way. Ironically enough, the podcast goes above and beyond to provide accessible options for any person desiring to enjoy it. Im so excited to see what Season 2 will bring!
