I don’t understand all the talk show internet shows that insists that I must do video when having the interview. Every time I’ve said no, they said, well then, we can’t do the interview. I guess there’s something I’m missing. Do people like watching mouths move? In terms of interviews like this, my facial expressions are pretty blank, give or take a smile, a raised eyebrow, a quirk of the lip. I’m much more facially expressive offline and away from the microphone. For the other blind people, spare me the inevitable rhetoric of, well, we live in a sighted world. I know that. One rebuke I have is Sighted people love more audio podcasts than most blind people. The only reason where I could see where this would make sense is if the host actually told me, it makes me more comfortable if my guests are on video.
