JC is BACK! Vision Cast returns to full strength with JC home from Puerto Rico, Stacey James live on the panel, and the biggest crew of the summer: Salvis, JC, Stacey, George, Preston, Donald, Nora, and a hello from Katie.Donald reveals his ChatGPT-coded broadcasting software MP3 DJ now runs Super Hit Mix Radio like a "self-driving station... a Tesla station." It watches the computer clock and switches between scheduled shows automatically with clean overlaps - George testifies the Music Mayhem to DJ Cool transition was seamless. It runs massive playlists on almost no memory. Donald also announces Super Hit Mix Radio and KSRN are officially sister stations, and as Stacey puts it: Vision Cast, RCL, KSRN, Super Hit Mix - "we're all partners, we work together, we're a team."In a pre-recorded drop, Stacey reports a frustrating VoiceOver accessibility bug in her broadcaster app - the Add Tracks button reads as dimmed for screen-reader users - forcing her to delay a few scheduled shows. But the wins are bigger: she upgraded to the Broadcast 3 package, turned on Auto DJ, and KSRN is now streaming music 24/7. Coming next: a KSRN Alexa skill, mobile apps for Apple and Google Play, and a submission to Audacy, one of the biggest hubs in radio.The story of the night: Salvis plays Stacey's audio diary from her weekend boating trip at Two Rivers Marina with her mom - first time out on the little lake boat. The engine roars, the water gets bouncy, Stacey debuts her own AI-generated country theme song mid-ride... and then the ignition sputters and dies. Electrical failure, a tow to the boat launch, and the immortal line: "I was fine until Mom said we had to swim to shore." Phone and headphones survived. The panel loses it.JC recaps Puerto Rico: roosters crowing at dawn, an Airbnb in Fajardo, fried cheese squares and calamari, meeting his cousin's first baby Maximo (aka Max), singing Happy Birthday with the family, and streaming their home church service on the Airbnb's smart TV. The tech star of the trip: JC used his Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses to live-translate his Spanish-speaking family into English in real time. Plus a practical accessibility find: his new Miracase iPhone 16 Pro case finally stops muffling the bottom microphone his old case blocked.Nora joins between sessions of the virtual American Council of the Blind convention, wrapping up this week with the annual banquet - archives available on ACB Media. Her birthday landsAugust 8, right on karaoke night. And in the most loving roast of the season, Stacey weaponizes Billie Eilish's "Happier Than Ever" against George and Philip, the whole crew piles on, and Stacey announces plans for a Satan-themed birthday party for George in November. George takes it like a champ.Coming soon: JC teases "The Offering," a new song by Pastor Jeff Dewick, premiering on the playout system once permissions clear.Keep technology alive, let your talent shine.Recorded 2026-07-29. Hosted by Salvis on the VisionCast Network.

Jill shared that her grandson had left for the Marine Corps in San Diego and mentioned a new Little House on the Prairie series on Netflix. Terry discussed attending an ACB convention and participating in an auction where items like Victor Readers were sold for high prices. Keith mentioned his family’s experience with summer camps and his activities with AI, including creating recap songs and blog content. check out, Heltsley Home Page. to see what Keith is doing there. While we don't have a link to the new series we discussed, you can enjoy all nine seasons of the original Little House on the Prairie episodes by clicking through on our Amazon affiliate link. News of the Week The team then shared unusual news stories, including space debris washing up on a New Zealand beach, a 94-year-old man setting a world record for water skiing, an ancient oak tree linked to Robin Hood that died, a bull interrupting a cricket match in England, and a World War II grenade being turned in at an Ontario police station. Jill's Trivia Quiz Jill hosted a trivia quiz about the TV show Green Acres, testing the group’s knowledge of various show details including character names, plot points, and specific information about the fictional town of Hooterville. The participants, including Keith and Terry, answered questions about topics ranging from cow names to anniversary celebrations, with some questions proving more challenging than others. The quiz concluded with questions about Oliver’s unusual collections and pet names, with participants taking turns guessing answers throughout the session. Terry's Top 10 List Terry shared a top 10 list of funny things a blind person cannot do at home, including winning staring contests, playing hide and seek with cats, judging wall colors, and finding Legos. The group discussed various challenges blind people face, such as not being able to spot spiders, wave to neighbors, or detect smoke before a fire alarm. Anchor Topic Our main focus this week centers on VIST (Visual Impairment Services Team) services for newly blind individuals. We dive into VIST services for newly blind individuals, and Keith suggested listening to the ACB convention on ACB Media 1 through Amazon devices. The group discussed several topics including a 2-minute lag in the ACB call and changes to VA training policies where veterans now have to pay their own travel costs to travel to training sessions. Terry suggests it may be due to the expense of requiring veterans to travel for short term training sessions that may only last a week. Keith suggested that the VA should instead provide extended training for those who need it while handling gadget training locally at VA hospitals. Email and Final Thoughts Keith shared an email about some dimwitted building contractors. He followed it with one sharing a letter written home from Marine Corps Boot Camp, encouraging listeners to get in on the action before it's too late. A listener sent in a voicemail about an awkward conversation in a bathroom. The Final voicemail was from our old Salty Marine buddy about his experience in a confessional booth. Embarrassing conversation. The final word from our AI companion The conversation ended with participants sharing jokes and funny stories, including emails and voicemails about various humorous situations and dad jokes.
