Transcript You're listening to Demand and Disrupt, the podcast for information about accessibility, advocacy, and all things disability. Welcome to Demand and Disrupt, a disability podcast. I'm your host, Kimberly Parsley. And I'm your cohost, Sam Moore, sitting here with a cup of black coffee. So I'm all caffeinated. And last time, Kimberly Parsley over here in Bowling Green, she had to settle for a black tea, but she's actually got cream in it today. So she's clicking on all cylinders and so am I. We know you want two hosts that are both equally clicking indeed for sure. But anyhow, Kimberly since you're clicking on all cylinders. Why don't you go ahead and tell us who our special guest is this time around. Yes, indeed, Sam. I have Earl Grey tea with cream in it and all is right with the world. And, and my special guest today is Jenny Smith. And Jenny is the branch manager at the Kentucky Talking Book Library in Frankfurt, and we talk about the Talking Book Library, its history, what they do, who they serve, all sorts of fascinating things. And as our listeners know, books are one of my most favorite things in the wide, wide world. So you've even written a few. I have written a few. I am extremely happy to talk with Jenny and, you know, aside from that, Sam, do you know what one of my other favorite things is? Uh, well, Bruce Springsteen. We talked about that a few weeks ago. That is true. The boss is definitely one of my favorites, but October and Halloween. They are synonymous. Yes, all month long. It's Halloween. I'm so excited. October is finally here. Yeah. And I feel like at some point it's going to cool down. I, you just got to keep the faith here in Southern Kentucky. Right. Yeah. It's one of those, it'll, it'll cool off with, with very short notice. And, you know, a lot of times the, the high temperatures will drop from like mid seventies to mid fifties within like a couple of days. So you don't have much time to prepare. There's, you know, it's, there's no graduality. Is that a word? It is now. Not, we made it a word. But, uh, yeah, I'm ready. I'm ready for that drop in temperature. Yeah. And, and pumpkin spice is all the craze now too. I know you've noticed that Kimberly. I have, I've had my, my pumpkin spice latte. We are getting all the Halloween decorations out. I have done the extremely annoying thing of waking up my children to Halloween music. So what do you think is the number one, the first Halloween song I had to play? The first Halloween song you played. I'm going to guess it has to be Ghostbusters. You know what? You're wrong, but you're close. Ghostbusters was the second. Ghostbusters was the second. It was not the first. Yes. Yes. But the first one was number one thriller. It was good job, Sam. Yep. Yeah. I was going to say, if it's not Ghostbusters, it has to be Michael Jackson's very popular thriller. It was thriller. Yep. I wake them up. They, they think it's amusing. They don't want this to happen all the time. So, but, uh, yep. Play it on the smart speaker all through the house. Wakes them up. Something you do five days a week or just like certain days. Well, um, just whenever I feel like it, honestly. There you go. Yeah. Whenever you just want to, and I'm sure they just love it. Whenever, whenever. Thriller is blaring on the smart speaker. I do like to kick off October. You know, I do that and on their birthdays, this is a tradition. I always play birthday by the Beatles to wake them up. Right. So that, uh, plays blaring all through the house on everybody's birthday. They, so it's. Yeah, it's a thing we do. And we've got, uh, we're going to, we've had candy corn, pumpkin spice latte. Oh gosh. I've not had a pumpkin spice latte yet, but I will once the weather cools off, I'll be more in the spirit. And, um, you know, I'll, I'll definitely have them...
