There's No Magic in the Cloud
Audio Pizza
Apple dropped new Macs with no fanfare, finally shipped a folding phone, and let Tim Cook actually walk out the door — and somehow the biggest fight of the episode is whether you can run a decent AI model in your spare room.

Cost Maps, Cameras and Cantaloupes: Glidance Under the Hood with Amos Miller
Audio Pizza
Everyone's seen the demos. but we wanted to know whats under the shell. So Scott, Shaun and Garth sat down with Glidance founder Amos Miller and went straight into the tech stack — cameras, cost maps, three motors, the lot. What comes out is a much better story than "AI mobility device". It's a story about deliberately NOT using AI where thirty years of boring, reliable robotics already works, and saving the clever stuff for the one problem it's actually good at.

Nobody Announced Anything, So We Talked Anyway
Audio Pizza
The conventions handed us nothing, so the lads do what the title says. A grumble about iOS 26 turns into a proper scrap over whether reporting bugs to Apple is worth the breath — then Shaun, dumped by a taxi at the wrong address, gets walked past a pavement full of cafe tables by an Aira agent. Also: foldables nobody can justify, a $4,485 domain, and AI built into an email client and ripped straight back out.

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.

Dependence to Independence in the Tech That Takes Us There
Audio Pizza
Independence doesn't mean doing everything yourself — it means having the choice to live life on your own terms.

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...

How Shaun The Grinch Fixed Christmas - AP154
Audio Pizza
We’re delighted to return with another Christmas audio drama. This time we’re revisiting Dr Seuss’s classic The Grinch Who Stole Christmas and giving it an accessibility twist. We truly appreciate all those who lent their voices to make this possible. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year from the Audio Pizza team!
info_outlineAfter 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.
