Accessible Future

Accessible Future

1.3 Billion people with disabilities are excluded by a world that isn't designed for them. Dismantling those barriers is no easy task - but it starts with education. After 15 years in the accessible vehicle industry, host Simon Jones is stepping into the role of a student to platform the voices fighting for a more inclusive world. From physical infrastructure to digital design, we explore lived experiences from disability advocates, tech innovators, policy makers, and more. Join us every second Wednesday as we learn how to build a more accessible future, together.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
