Transcript Robotic Voice You're listening to Demand and Disrupt, the podcast for information about accessibility, advocacy, and all things disability. Kimberly Parsley Welcome to Demand and Disrupt, a disability podcast. I'm your host, Kimberly Parsley. Sam Moore And I'm your co-host, Sam Moore. How's it going, Kimberly? Kimberly Parsley It is going very well. How are things up there at the North Quail Motel, Sam? Sam Moore Oh, I'm telling you, we're fully booked. You're going to have to wait at least a few days to get a reservation up here. But, you know, it's pretty nice outside. And so we're all sort of getting spring fever around here. I don't think we're out of the woods yet in terms of cold weather. [chuckle] Kimberly Parsley Sure not, I'm sure not. Sam Moore But, you know, it makes us think that we're home for all this 50 degree plus weather. [chuckle] Kimberly Parsley It does. It does. And people may hear it here at Demand and Disrupt Studios. People may hear wind chimes. [chuckle] Sam Moore Oh, yes, because those have been quite loud all day, with good reason, because it's breezy there. Kimberly Parsley It is. It is indeed. Sam Moore But I wouldn't frown. I don't hear him yet, but I would not frown on hearing some wind chime music. That would be like the perfect touch to the perfect podcast, don't you think? Kimberly Parsley I do, I do love, I do love some wind chimes. I really do. Sam Moore Yeah. They're comforting, they're, you know, they soothe the soul. Only bad thing is they might put me to sleep and— Kimberly Parsley And, you know, if you— Sam Moore You know, if you want to wake me up. [chuckle] Kimberly Parsley If you're blind, they're also informative, right? So you can tell how windy it is. Sam Moore Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. If they're blowing, if the wind's blowing and they're loud, then you know that it's a windy day and there's wind advisory potential. [chuckle] Kimberly Parsley Yeah, I took them down because I, you know, if they're calling for like ice and stuff, those little strings that hold wind chimes together will freeze and they'll break. And so I take them down, but I thought it was safe. I had Michael put them back up a couple of days ago. Sam Moore I think if with any luck, we're safe in the ice department at this point. But yeah, you want to preserve those precious choms, you know, for spring. You know, you don't want to take a chance at damaging strings in the inclement winter weather. [chuckle] Kimberly Parsley Nope. Nope. You don't. I do. I do love them. Well, Sam, you did our interview today. So tell me who we're talking to. Sam Moore We, madam, are talking with the one and only Jennifer Hunt Spurling. And as I told you, she is actually from your neck of the woods, good old Morgantown, Kentucky. Kimberly Parsley Oh, yes. The birth place of Kimberly Jane Parsley. [chuckle] Sam Moore Yes. The birth place of Kimberly Parsley. She is the whole reason that Morgantown and Butler County is on the map. [chuckle] Kimberly Parsley They would be surprised to hear that, I'm sure. [laughter] Sam Moore But anyway, I told you the name, Jennifer Hunt Spurling, and at first it didn't ring a bell with you, did it? Kimberly Parsley Not at first, but then again, I'm getting old. Sam Moore No, nobody said that. But ...
