Blind Guys Chat
A place where the blind guys talk about the A to Z of life

#028: Come fly with us.

2 years ago

From Warsaw to Cairo, Birmingham to Porto, this week’s show has you covered if you are thinking about taking a flight. Yes, the Blind Guys have all been abroad since our last podcast. And we are here to tell you about our experiences, good and bad.

Óran says he is dripping in his own sweat since the last podcast. It seems Clodagh has been increasing his workload at home. Booo!!

Jan & Óran talk to Louis Martens from the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Cairo, Egypt. Louis is the first Secretary of Economic Affairs and is one of very few blind diplomats in the world. Louis talks to us about his work as a diplomat in Cairo and how he manages to get around Cairo and various diplomatic receptions with his “habibi”. And of course, Jan & Óran want to know what the weather is like, spoiler alert, it’s 28̊°C most days.

We are going to ‘Midnight Mass’ in TV Corner and Óran is moaning again about terrible audio description on ‘Jack Whitehall, travels with my Father’.

The Blind Guys are looking for you to share your daily living tips. This will be a new section for which Óran is going to compose his own jingle. God help us all!

We’ve got voice messages from Saleem from Dublin and Blind Gordon from Scotland, and Stuart has a question for Otis McStroupy-Stroup.

So, move your seats to an upright position, put your tray tables away securely, take note of your nearest emergency exit and let us take you on your flight with the best airline in the world, Air BGC.

Disclaimer: Blind Guys Chat is not an airline and is therefore possibly not the best airline in the world, but if we were, we would be.

…probably.
