After a four-year hiatus, we’re delighted to welcome you back to the Words Words Words podcast. Along with a couple of featured words from Douglas Adams' wonderful book "The meaning of Liff", this episode includes a listener-contributed word, Battersea Park. Thanks Sally for sending it through. If you have any ideas to contribute, please get in touch. Battersea Park (verb) - The act of assaulting a poorly parked car, by a blind person with their white cane. Whilst neither recommended nor encouraged, this can relieve ones frustration when suddenly coming across a car which has been left casually across a path, or somewhere else it should not have been. You can find earlier episodes in this series here.

Safety Glasses - AP150
In this episode of Audio Pizza, Shaun, Garth, and Kayaker try on the future—AI-powered smart glasses that promise to help us blind folk find our way without walking into quite so many lamp posts. After that, they swap specs for security, digging into the iOS settings that can keep your iPhone safer than a squirrel guarding its last nut. And remember: if you must steal an iPhone… Shaun’s is apparently the one to go for.

Fun and Games - AP149
Fun and games? Not exactly. In this edition of Audio Pizza, Shaun, Garth, and Kayaker try to talk about what they do for fun and games… only to reveal they’re not all that fun and don’t actually play that many games. But what they lack in actual gameplay, they make up for with quick banter, questionable opinions, and spirited chats about entertainment, video games, blind sports, and the occasional board game.
