I create a fun place to have meaningful conversations about what matters to us. Heard on The Blind Side, Wednesdays 8-10 PM ET on 195 The Globe

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

It's an important day for me and for The Blind Side because I need to share my heart with this wonderful audience and we have some things to tell you about the future of @195theglobelive. Listen at 9 PM ET: https://t.co/TGzmCzR6ZR #GlobeOnAir

Usually the jokes on this account are painful to read let alone RT, hence "dad jokes." Which BTW is what makes them awesome! But this is real and a great reminder to us all.

[Dad Jokes @Dadsaysjokes]

You’re living, you occupy space, and you have mass.

You know what that means?

You matter.

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

Same here! Totally embracing the Christmas mood, and excited about what we’re building together!

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

Listening to the fascinating interview with @Riccobono on @MosenAtLarge. Grateful to both for addressing the major issues facing NFB, @JonathanMosen asking the hard questions and Pres Riccobono providing direct answers. Transparency is refreshing; definitely a good listen.

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

So I think this is a first in my radio career... a concert is being streamed live on our station! @SirRiker2020 & @JaneenLea are seeing @bigtimerush in #Denver and inviting us to the show! Tune in now on @195theglobelive! https://t.co/TGzmCzQzaj, @tunein or Alexa.

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

Eventful and thought-provoking Blind Side coming up at 9 PM ET! Talking about the #NFB resolution on #ConsentCulture, #AudioDescription & visual introduction. Join us on @195theglobelive! https://t.co/TGzmCzQzaj #GlobeOnAir

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

ICYMI, Terry Suarez, @JaneenLea, @SirRiker2020 and I started recapping #NFB22 and #ACB22 last week. We'll continue tonight with a little help from our friends (all of you) starting at 9 PM ET on @195theglobe! https://t.co/TGzmCzQzaj #GlobeOnAir

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

Big announcement! Starting tonight, The Blind Side will begin at a new time: 9 PM Eastern! This will allow for better consistency with less stress for everyone involved, and hopefully open us up to a new audience in other time zones. Join us tonight for more convention recap!

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

I see your point and will defer to your experience on this. On the surface, it seems that consent would be straightforward and logical. But at least the official statement could be helpful, e.g. the Code of Conduct. #NFB22

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

One more thought: the resolution said that @nfb_voice is the strongest supporter of "bodily autonomy for the blind." I agree. But bodily autonomy as I understand it is as important to blind people as it is to sighted people... right? #NFB22

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

🧵 I'm going to ask a question, and it's mostly because I don't have enough experience to know the answer. Do we really need a resolution explaining & supporting the concept of consent? To be clear, I strongly support it. I just wonder if there's anything new about it. #NFB22

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

Also, the resolution struck me as a bit jargony. "Consent language?" "Bodily autonomy?" I wonder how many in our community who don't work in this field know what those mean. #NFB22

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

@SirRiker2020 Or do you support virtual voting as a permanent policy, which would require a Constitutional amendment? I have mixed feelings about this for another day, but I'm interested in gauging others' thoughts. #NFB22

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

I'm sorry you don't feel comfortable coming in-person yet, but I understand & thank you for approaching it as your personal choice. The same risk taken here could be taken at any event. #NFB22

[The Blinkmeister 🏺✝️🚀👩🏼‍🦯 @AuroraNebulosa]

As a person who is #HighRiskCovid, I do not plan to attend an NFB convention in-person until I can truly be assured that I am not very likely putting my life on the line. #NFB22

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

@SirRiker2020 I agree that, especially in light of what I'm seeing here, there could have been justification to bring back the rules of engagement used at the virtual conventions & allow virtual voting. Question, though: At what point is it OK to bring voting rules back to what they were?

[Chris Nusbaum 🎙 @RadioChrisN]

Must be performance night! Come see the movie and/or join @nfb_pad for the Showcase of Talent! #NFB22

[National Federation of the Blind @NFB_voice]

It’s movie night at #NFB22. Join us for an advanced screening of the film Surpassing Sight this evening at 5:30. Please note the location change! It’s at the Prytania Theatre - Canal Place.
