Dialogue: 0,0:00:35.75,0:02:25.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[inaudible]
Dialogue: 0,0:02:28.50,0:02:32.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I wouldn't be telling you but I am\NGood, so how did the name come to you?
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The name literally, I know people \Nsay this, came to me in the shower.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,One morning we had, oh goodness,\Nthe idea of coming up with a name
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for a disability website,\Nis a bit of a nightmare
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for any kind of disability project,\NWe desperately wanted, forgive me,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but we didn't want anything with the word\N"able" in it, for instance, because
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it was such a, people do it a lot.\NEvery single disability project
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is "able" this, "able" that, work "able",\Nmedia "able", radio "able".
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Whatever, you know.\NSo I was keen not to go through that
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I wanted something that had a bit of\Nattitude as well.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'm trying to think of other things\Nwe went through. Some of the ideas
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are probably worth dwelling on a bit.\NSome of the names we came up with
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as we went along, I remember at one point,\Nwhen our working title was
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Disability Noodle, I don;t know where that
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,came from. \N[Laughter]
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Someone in the marketing\Ndepartment once decided
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that a good name for it might be\N"I Dance to my Own Song"
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and you sit there and you think,\Nthat's a bit floaty
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's a bit, I don't know, pretentious\Nor something
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Laughter]\NDon't know how that one came about
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but people come at disability from all \Nsorts of different angles, don't they.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Clearly. \NSomeone even suggested that "Minefield"
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,might be a really good name for Ouch\Nbecause people think of it as, you know,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you can't say this, you can't say that.\NIt's a bit of a minefield.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But, then we of course, had to point out\Nthat there's plenty of disabled people
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that were unfortunately disabled in\Nminefields.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, perhaps it wasn't the best title.\N[Laughter}
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, what would you call a new disability \Nwebsite, Leah, that's what I want to know.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I would, just a period. \NI don't know. I think you guys did a
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,great job with what you came up with.\NI think it's perfect,

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,-Can you think of the most memorable\Nreaction you've gotten from an audience
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or listener?\NMost memorable?
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,-Yeah, anything that really\Nstands out to you?
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,-Funny, negative, positive, something that\Njust pops in your head.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Oh, yeah, things aren't popping into my\Nhead right now.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I mean, it's always nice when we get\Npeople now, course, podcast's been running
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,10 years, but we get people who say,\N"you changed our life with your podcast.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We've never heard disabled voiced in that\Nway before."
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We had created a kind of radio show, that\Nhad never been done before, in that way
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it was really out there and really\Nsaid, horrible things some times but
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you know, quirky things and amusing things\Nand it had a but of an attitude so a lot
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of people have written to us over the\Nyears and said if it wasn't for the
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,podcast we wouldn't have the same kind of\Nself-esteem we have now and wouldn't
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,really have gone down certain roads to\Nbecoming happy, really.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Which is, you know, very exciting.\NI don't know if everybody thinks like that
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'm sure they don't, but some are \Nparticularly gratifying.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They've happened. I guess that's why we do\Nthis disability media stuff, isn't it?
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,-Sure. Change attitudes, bring awareness. \NYeah.
