DOUBLE TAP. TEN YEARS OF TECHNOLOGY, TWO DISTINCT VOICES, AND A WHOLE
NEW CHAPTER.
A CONVERSATION WITH STEVEN SCOTT AND SHAUN PREECE
Ten years.
In the world of technology, that’s practically several lifetimes.
And when you’re talking about accessible technology, podcasting,
artificial intelligence, and the ever-evolving experiences of the
blind and low vision community, a decade represents an extraordinary
amount of change.
This week, Anthony Corona welcomes Steven Scott and Shaun Preece, the
voices behind Double Tap, for a lively, thoughtful, and wide-ranging
conversation about where they’ve been, where they’re going, and what
comes next.
But before diving into the technology, we get to know the people
behind the microphones.
Who are Steven and Shaun as individuals? What brought them together?
How did their professional partnership develop into the unmistakable
chemistry, humor, occasional disagreements, and candid conversations
that have become hallmarks of Double Tap?
We explore the evolution of Double Tap over the past decade, the
changing landscape of podcasting and digital media, and the
extraordinary transformation of accessible technology.
From the tools we relied on ten years ago to the rapidly emerging
possibilities of artificial intelligence, the conversation touches on
some of the innovations, challenges, and questions shaping the way
blind and low vision people navigate an increasingly connected world.
And let’s face it. Technology is moving so quickly that even an
hour-long conversation can barely scratch the surface!
Then we turn our attention to an exciting new chapter.
DOUBLE TAP LIVE.
Building on a decade of trusted programming and community engagement,
Double Tap Live introduces a 24-hour streaming service dedicated to
disability-related content, with a strong focus on the blind and low
vision community.
It’s an ambitious undertaking that opens the door to new voices, new
perspectives, new programming, and new opportunities for connection.
What inspired the launch? What do Steven and Shaun envision for the
network? How might it evolve, and what role can it play in
strengthening the communities it serves?
And beyond the technology and programming, we explore something
equally important.
The responsibility we share as members of the blind, low vision, and
broader disability communities.
How do we support one another while making room for different
experiences and perspectives?
How do we balance innovation with accessibility, advocacy with
accountability, and enthusiasm for new technology with thoughtful
examination of its limitations?
What responsibilities do content creators, technology developers,
advocates, and community members have in shaping the conversations
that influence our collective future?
These are questions without simple answers, but they’re conversations
worth having.
And we certainly had plenty to say!
In fact, we had so much ground left to cover that we’ve already begun
discussing a follow-up conversation.
Because sometimes one episode simply isn’t enough.
Anthony Corona Media is proud that Sunday Edition with Anthony Corona
is one of the featured programs on Double Tap Live, joining a growing
collection of voices dedicated to informing, entertaining,
challenging, and connecting audiences.
We’re excited about the possibilities this new network represents and
delighted to be part of its journey.
This episode is more than a look back at ten years of Double Tap.
It’s a conversation about friendship, collaboration, change,
innovation, community, and the future of accessible media.
And perhaps most importantly, it’s a reminder that behind every
microphone, every technological breakthrough, and every ambitious new
venture are people with stories worth hearing.
Join Anthony, Steven, and Shaun for the first of what we hope will be
many great conversations.
Because after ten years of Double Tap, it seems the conversation is
only getting started!
