In this episode of iCantCU, I discuss some ups and downs with our monthly Keystone Chapter meeting at the Penn Museum. At least the trains were running to and from the Penn Medicine Station. I explain some differences in Believe You Can! 2023 over previous year’s shows.
I give a mini book review of The Country of the Blind: A Memoir at the End of Sight by Andrew Leland. I “read” the book before interviewing him on White Canes Connect.
If you want to see the talent we get for Believe You Can!, you can hear one of last year’s performers in Just Listen. As of this episode’s drop date, there are still a few spaces left if you are a blind or visually impaired person with a talent and would like to perform.
