Improvements, Trust, Intelligence (And 80 Degrees in Maui)
Audio Pizza
Shaun's out (family duties — respect), but the show must go on. Scott's freezing in England, Garth's freezing in Australian winter, and Brett is apparently suffering terribly in 80-degree Maui. Someone had to do it. This episode is a deep, accessible-first breakdown of Apple's WWDC 2026 keynote — what actually matters for blind and low-vision users, what Apple is quietly admitting about its AI strategy, and the surprising things that get us excited.

Vegas, Blind, and Basically Fine
Audio Pizza
Tim Cook is out, a blind guy navigated Vegas solo with AI glasses and a very optimistic attitude about public bathrooms, and VoiceOver is still doing that thing. Kayaker reports back from Battle Bots in Las Vegas with a full rundown of the apps that made the trip work — and the ones that almost got him eaten by a fake puddle. Sean and Garth chime in with the usual mix of enthusiasm, skepticism, and righteous fury at in-app advertising.

Lightsabers, Keyboards & Questionable Predictions - AudioPizza gets Double Tapped
Audio Pizza
The gang returns for 2026 with CES chat, and predictions that will age like milk! What’s inside: Kayaker freezes in New England; Sean freezes in the original England; Garth refuses to stop being sunny Steven Scott drops in from Double Tap and immediately turns “a quick chat” into “a feature-length film” AirPods Pro 3 praise, ear-tip rage, and the haunting tale of the “dog-processed” AirPods The Lightsaber Cane: brilliant, ridiculous, heavier than normal, and only sometimes practical “Does this confuse the public?” Spoiler: the public is already confused Keychron...

The AudioPizza 2025 Gift Guide that No One Asked For
Audio Pizza
Audio Pizza’s annual holiday gift guide is back, with Sean, Garth and Kayaker trading banter, bad weather reports and actually decent present ideas. They compare Meta smart glasses with newer AI-first options, talk through why Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 and Apple Watch remain go-to tech gifts, and get surprisingly passionate about good iPhone cases, light-up white canes, and properly sharp kitchen knives. Garth throws in tactile Hanayama puzzles and UV-printed tactile photos as great options for blind and low-vision friends, and the trio round things out with a defence of gift cards, a detour...

Thin Is In, just ask My iPhone - AP151
Audio Pizza
This month, the globe spins faster than Sean’s excuses for not reading the manual as the Audio Pizza crew—Kayaker, Garth, and Shaun—check in from around the world with special guest Brett Halle and a surprise cameo from Jordie, freshly armed with a shiny new iPhone 17 Pro. The gang dives deep into Apple’s latest event—iPhones, Watches, AirPods, and a healthy sprinkle of sarcasm. • Shaun: Still refusing to upgrade because “thinness is overrated.” • Garth: Tempted by the Air, but only if it gets a second speaker. • Brett: Drops insider-level knowledge bombs about RAM, LiDAR,...
info_outlineFun 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.
