In this episode of Double Tap on YouTube, Steven and Shaun discuss the frustration of audio description, also known as described video, Sight and Sound's latest technology available from the UK assistive tech company, and Double Tap goes full time on YouTube.

We start with a discussion on the frustration of accessing audio description (AD) on streaming platforms, particularly when it is available on one platform but not on another. The lack of understanding and inclusion of AD by broadcasters and streaming providers is highlighted.

Next up, Steven chats about new and cool technology available at Sight and Sound Technology, including Braille displays, desktop readers, and the WeWalk Smart Cane.

And finally, the hosts announce that their show has been renewed for another year and express gratitude to their audience and also explain their decision to expand to YouTube while maintaining an audio-first approach.

Get ahead of the conversation and check out the Double Tap YouTube channel every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday on the platform which you can find using this link: [https://www.youtube.com/@DoubleTapVideo]
