Welcome to The Hear Me Out! [CC] Podcast, an audio show (with transcripts included) where we listen to stories from fascinating individuals in and around the d/Deaf community and from your host, yours truly, Ahmed Khalifa.

It's time we give sign language interpreters a break and give them the recognition and appreciation that they deserve.

Many people don't realise that simultaneous interpreting (and by the way, that applies to oral language interpretation too), requires a high-level of focus, listening and concentration.

And most of us don't see that.

So it's no wonder that they can get physically, mentally and even emotionally fatigued too, yet that is rarely talked about and appreciated enough.

So let's give them credit for what they do and appreciate it.
