On Today’s Show:
- Remember that today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day! Find ways that you can come to appreciate the difficulties many face in interacting with the world, and how we can make the world better to help them.
- It’s also Rapture Party Day, which seems strange, given that we are celebrating the start of the world (aka summer) rather than the end..
- Remember that while the sun is nice, it can hurt! Tomorrow is Don’t Fry Day, so find your sunblock today to be ready.
- Tomorrow is also a combination of Sherlock Holmes Day and Goth Day. These need to be combined, somehow..
