Discover the ultimate tools for blind and visually impaired tech users as Steven Scott and Shaun Preece explore NVDA Audio Manager, the Keychron B6 Pro keyboard, open-ear Shokz headsets, and the quirks of daily accessibility tech. Learn how to manage audio devices, mute microphones with confidence, and find budget-friendly keyboards that rival the Logitech MX Keys.

In this lively episode, Steven and Shaun dive into the practical side of accessible tech. Steven shares how NVDA’s Audio Manager add-on transforms his workflow, letting him easily mute and manage audio devices with instant voice feedback. The conversation shifts into the world of open-ear headphones, USB-C frustrations, and the hilarious challenges of using modern mixers like the Rodecaster Pro 2 while blind.

Keyboard enthusiasts will enjoy the in-depth comparison between the Logitech MX Keys and the affordable Keychron B6 Pro, including thoughts on ergonomics, key feel, and the accessibility of companion software. The duo also swap stories about cane techniques, echolocation, and the freedom of walking at night with little to no vision. With personal anecdotes—from peeling laptops to wrist rest obsessions—this episode blends practical tips with humour that every blind tech fan will appreciate.
