⁠We’re back with a brand-new episode of The Unsyted Radio — and this one is packed with big conversations, fascinating history, and a first look at an inclusive game we cannot wait to share.⁠

Chad Bouton and Simon O’Gorman dive into the future of accessibility and technology, asking where the line sits between support, choice, cure, and augmentation. From Neuralink’s Blindsight concept to the ethical questions around brain implants and vision restoration, this episode explores the excitement, uncertainty, and very real concerns behind emerging tech.

We also shine a spotlight on Ralph Teetor, the blind mechanical engineer who invented cruise control, and discuss why stories like his deserve to be far better known. It is a powerful reminder that disabled innovators have helped shape everyday technology in ways many people never realise.

The conversation then turns to Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses, privacy concerns, and why blanket bans risk taking away affordable and life-changing assistive technology from blindand low vision users. Chad and Simon discuss why regulation, education, and better understanding are more helpful than fear-driven reactions.

To round things off, we take a first look at Amatismo, an inclusive visual novel exploring self-acceptance, depression, and emotional resilience, with a strong focus on accessibility features including screen reader support, self-voicing, scenedescriptions, audio cues, content warnings, and remappable controls.
