The Blind Chick
Aftersight
The Blind Chick is an Aftersight Original hosted by Penn and Moses Street. It’s a raw, real, and often funny conversation space where blindness isn’t a limitation—it’s part of the story. Each episode dives into the lives of blind and low-vision people, exploring resilience, identity, and the messy, beautiful realities of living without sight. With heart, humor, and honesty, The Blind Chick breaks stereotypes, challenges stigma, and reminds us all that blindness is not the end of the story—it’s the beginning of a new one.

Chloe Duplessis: I'm An Artist. Period.
We just had to have Chloe back for another week of amazing discussion from Penn and Chloe. Many times we deal with what qualifies us to do what we do and we put "ands" in our lives to justify what we do either for a living, or for fun, or for some other purpose. Chloe shows us that no matter what you do you never have to put and after the title of you. You can find a transcription of this episode here. https://share.descript.com/view/pnnMvocXG3N

Not Bears... But God...
WARNING: THIS EPISODE DOES TALK ABOUT CHILD SUICIDE. LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED. You will not believe this story until you hear it. This is Kelvin Crosby. His story is not for the faint of heart.
