In October 2022 at the age of 20, Laura McEvoy from Northern Ireland was involved in a devastating car accident that changed her life forever, leaving her with a spinal cord injury at L1, fractured vertebrae in her neck, and a cracked skull. Told she might never walk again, Laura refused to accept defeat. Through sheer determination and the unwavering support of her family and friends, she defied the odds rebuilding her life step by step facing life's toughest challenges with remarkable resilience and passion.  A former competitive Irish dancer and outdoor enthusiast, Laura found her way back to the activities she loved and discovered new passions along the way. From learning to walk again with crutches and AFOs to abseiling and climbing the iconic Rathlin Wall at Fairhead, she has redefined what it means to overcome adversity. Today, Laura is a passionate advocate for accessible outdoor adventure, working with organisations including; Mountaineering Ireland, Tollymore, and Accessible Adventures Ireland to create inclusive opportunities in climbing, paddle sports and hiking. She's raised thousands for The Outdoor Partnership, earned multiple climbing qualifications, and is now leading the way in organising major inclusive and adaptive expeditions, this past weekend she was part of a paddling and camping adventure on Lough Erne.  As if that wasn't enough, Laura is also making her mark on the court as a wheelchair basketball athlete for Northern Ireland, with her sights set firmly on the Commonwealth Games in 2026. Her motto, "Say yes to everything," captures the spirit of a woman who isn't just surviving trauma she's thriving and inspiring others to believe that their limits are only the starting point.

Walking difficulties can lead to dangerous falls and limit mobility for people with many different conditions. While devices like ankle foot orthoses (AFOs), complex robotics, and walking aids like canes or walkers can help, they have their downsides. Usually, they're not made with aesthetics in mind, often cost too much, and they can attract unwanted stares and questions from strangers.    In this episode, you'll hear from Dr. Tyler Susko, Founder and CTO of Cadense, Inc., a company that aims to revolutionize the way people with walking difficulties experience movement. Tyler shares the story of multiple innovations, including the development of their Cadense shoes — stylish footwear made with variable friction technology for people who have difficulty swinging their foot forward during walking. They've created shoes to allow a person's foot to discreetly slide over obstacles to prevent tripping.

Hope you like it! Happy Listening!

William Evans, who is a wounded warrior, & his wife, Melanie, had nine children when Ryder, a.k.a. Beanie, came into their lives. This little boy, who was homeless the first eight weeks of his life on the streets of California, had tremors from fetal alcohol, ADHD, and autism, desperately needed a loving home. When Ryder's birth parents proved they could not offer Ryder that type of home, William & Melanie gave Ryder a forever home, making him the 10th kid in the Evans family! On tomorrow's show, you will hear more of Ryder's story and how you can help this family as they work to offer a loving home and improve his life!

  Click here for a machine-generated transcript   AFOs (Ankle-Foot Orthotics) offer many stroke survivors freedom by letting us safely walk. They lift our affected feet as we take our steps so our toes don't drag on the ground and trip us. They give us the mobility that foot drop threatens to take. But they're not usually very attractive. And finding shoes that work with them is a challenge because they need to be bigger and wider so we can squeeze a weak foot and brace into the show. A common question I hear from survivors is, "Where can I get shoes that aren't so ugly?" Well, I don't always have great answers to that, but Lainie Ishbia does. Laine runs the Trend-Able blog and is one half of the emBRACE IT podcast. She's an expert on finding and making accessible fashion, and she joins us this week to share her story. Bio Lainie Ishbia is a blogger and podcaster helping people with invisible and visible disabilities look good and feel good. Her website at Trend-Able.com offers tips and strategies for literally and metaphorically  balancing fashion and physical needs. She develops tips for find accessible clothing options. If you can't find it, she offers tips on modifying clothes to make them work. Lainie lives with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. It's a hereditary, degenerative nerve condition that today impacts her hands and feet. She began wearing AFOs on each foot at age 30 and mourned the loss of sleek heels at the time. Since then, she's turned around her perspective, leveraged skills acquired through a career in social work and now helps folks with disabilities live their best lives with confidence, self esteem, and passion. You can find more details of Lainie's story here. Disability and Lifestyle Living with disability (visible or not) is a lifestyle. It shapes what we wear, the careers we pursue if able, and the social activities we pursue. And we learn so much along the way. I often say I now know way more about neurology and neuroplasticity than any marketing guy should ever know. And now I know the foot bed in a shoe may be removal. And I know there is a thing in a shoe called a foot bed. Lainie's fashion blog goes well beyond just the particulars of clothing and includes tips and strategies on how to navigate the world, like 5 Cocktail Survival Tips for Unsteady Girls or A Girlfriend's Guide to Dating with an Invisible Disability. Disability Pride Month July is Disability Pride Month. I'm a little fuzzy on the origins and scope of the celebration, but my understanding is it started in 2015 in New York City to recognize the importance of the Americans with Disabilities Act. How ought we celebrate it in 2021? It will depend largely on your personal comfort level. Don't let anyone tell you you're doing it wrong. The first thing is to recognize, accept, and believe with all your heart (original, mechanical, acquired from someone else, etc.) that there is no shame in being disabled. Say it out loud if you can. There is no shame in disability. We are people with lives to live. Sure, those lives may be different from the lives of the temporarily abled, but they are no less valuable. Second, you can celebrate disability pride by simply being visible. By being a part of the world, participating in it and taking up space in it just like any temporarily-abled person. Don't let people pretend we don't exist. Don't hide from people just because our presence makes them uncomfortable. Third, when someone talks about diversity and inclusion, make sure they are talking about disability in that, too. A diverse organization with no disabled people is not a diverse organization. Fourth, share your story with folks. You don't have to share it with the world in a podcast, blog or YouTube channel if you don't want to. But you can share it with people in your community and family.  The woman who hosted the graduation party Lainie talked about in our interview (probably) wasn't trying to keep disabled people from having a good time at the party. It's likely the challenges Lainie faced never even occurred to her. The more we tell our stories, the more people will think about accessibility. That's just a few ideas to consider. Ultimately, you can celebrate in the manner that feels most comfortable to you. If that means you walk, roll, or hobble down the street in a parade or protest, great. If it means all you can do is remind yourself there is no shame in disability, that's great, too. Disabled is not a bad word. There is no shame in it. Have a fantastic Disability Pride Month! Hack of the Week. Lainie suggests picking up (no pun intended) mini-lint-rollers, like these.* These have sticky sheets used for getting lint or pet hair off your clothes. If you struggle with manual dexterity, though, they can also be great for picking up change at a store counter. They can also be a nice solution when that pill box spills on the floor and Plaxix and Lisinopril go everywhere! "But, Bill, why wouldn't I just pick things up with my unaffected hand?" There are a few reasons. First, a toned or spastic hand can probably still hold a lint roller, and if you have some shoulder control, you can move it. One of the most important tools in recovery is to use your affected limb as much as possible in practical way. Just because it's no longer fully connected to your brain is no reason not to make it work. Second, especially when I need to get something on the floor, I often need to use my unaffected arm to balance or stabilize myself. If I get in an awkward position and my unaffected hand is busy, it's much more difficult to not fall. Everything in life can be therapy! Links Where do we go from here?

A ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION WITH RESEARCHERS AND CLINICIANSA special Q and A - in conjunction with families and parentsThis is a unique podcast as we hit pause on our usual program to answer questions that families have been sending us. On the pod this week, we have Marissa Smith (Physiotherapist), Georgia Hoffman (Physiotherapist), Loren West (Occupational Therapist) and Dr Dayna Pool (Physiotherapist).How we actually put all the knowledge into practice is a big and important question. Even if we have all the knowledge available, unless we know how we can implement research findings and recommendations into real life settings, the knowledge isn't particularly useful!Parents and children have great questions because ultimately, they want to be able to make informed decisions that enable the best possible outcome. This podcast is so important as we answer the most common questions that have been sent to us. Clearly, these questions are meaningful to families and this round table discussion of experienced health professionals provides the thought processes involved in making decisions that optimise outcomes by using the best available evidence. The key is that individualised care is at the core - each person is different, with a different set of circumstances and goals. Making decisions should always be based on the best available evidence and as you'll hear from our conversation - there is no such thing as a one size fits all but, there are some very clear considerations in developing the best possible therapy program and recommendations for care. If we are evidence based, we are ultimately fulfilling our ethical obligations as health professionals in optimising care and minimising harm. This was made so incredibly clear in Professor Iona Novak and Professor Andrew Whitehouse's podcast earlier in the season. So we hope you enjoy this special episode as the panel discusses the clinical decision making process within the best available evidence for the following questions:When do you wear AFOs and is it ok to take them off?What surgeries to  muscles would you expect children with cerebral palsy would need?I have a wheelchair and walking frame but I can't bring them around everywhere. So sometimes the wheelchair is at home, a walker at school but he likes to crawl around at home. How do I strike the right balance?There are so many walkers out there. How do I choose a walker that is right for my child?How do I know what therapies to pick?

Seventeen-year- old Holly was diagnosed with diplegic cerebral palsy as a toddler. She speaks to Kate and Mandy about growing up in the rural Victorian town of Mildura, experiencing the support and care of a small community of friends, family, integration aides, therapeas and peafessionals, while also experiencing a very different world to her peers at the same time. Holly’s CP affects her legs, hands and speech and she’s undergone plenty of therapies such as botox and AFOs. She’s putting in an NDIS application for a scooter, and Kate and Mandy are willing to stage a pea-test if she doesn’t get it! When she reached grade 6, Holly and her mum experienced some very hurtful rectum behaviour from her school. Schools, we invite you to listen closely to Holly to understand how important it is to offer sensitivity and solutions, not just criticisms. Holly is doing VCE subjects English, Maths Methods, Chemistry, Biology and Health and Human Development and is aiming to studying paediatric physiotherapy or OT at university next year, so she can support kids and teenagers who are going through similar challenges. Holly’s learned that it can be hard to understand what other people are going through when you’re going through so much yourself, especially when you’re still a teenager. Holly also works as a check out chick at the local Coles, loves chocolate, girl guides and camping! Kate and Mandy hear some wise words from Holly about how they can be the best mums they can be to their peashoots. She also offers some powerful advice for all doctors, teachers, family and friends that leaves Kate and Mandy speechless – possibly for the first time ever! Absolutely do not miss listening to Holly!

This mix starts with a nice handshake from some modern post-punk and classic new wave, but it quickly escalates into some electro/EBM hand-to-hand combat. Bring your gloves. Undertheskin — “Burn”. Perhaps one of the most underrated post-punk bands in the business, every track is a death-grip of guitars and drums that leaves you beaten and exhausted like a car crash. A Transition — “Cold”. The instrumental post-punk jam is a beast we see too infrequently. This choreographed dance of evocative guitar and head-nodding riffs doesn’t need a single lyric to convey feelings of searching, finding and regretting.A Flock of Seagulls — “I Ran”. Their aesthetic became a punchline and was a distraction to near peerless songwriting, musicianship and production. I mean, that guitar. What new wave act burned brighter than AFOS in their ’82-’83 run?Billy Idol — “White Wedding”. Every Billy Idol song lives and dies by his vocal delivery. This song, when his discography is fully stacked and tallied, is what everyone hears when they see his sneer. It is the ultimate conviction through performance.Killing Joke — “Follow the Leader”. It’s tribal, but not JUST because of the drums. Youth’s bass and Jaz’s vocals create a gravity well for conscious thought, and the track becomes less about listening than it does about experiencing. It’s only natural state is “loud”.Empirion — “Red Noise (Rotersand Rework)”. After a hiatus of a million years, these electronauts from the 90s return with an LP that aims for the dancefloor with the subtlety of a napalm drop. Recommended if you have a heartbeat.Street Fever — “In Your Lungs”. This song has a whole new inflection in our COVID-19 crisis, but at least we can dance our way toward physical distancing. I mean, how depraved is that synth stab?Kanga — “Viciousness”. This one-woman sonic armada delivers a tour de force of beats, bass and brio, and few electro-industrial-dance artists have delivered a first LP so fully realized. We’re living in Kanga’s world and better off for it.Boy Harsher — “Tears”. Listen to the bass drop at 1:58. Let it patiently morph into a deceptive bridge before it drops again at 2:51. That’s all you need to understand why Boy Harsher is bigger than Jesus.Noise Unit — “Deceit”. This is North American EBM cut so pure it’s amazing it wasn’t banned during Bush’s anti-drug crusades.Armageddon Dildos — “East West”. Let’s talk about 80s geo-politics with a song about, um, fucking in the park. Wait, what? Exactly. Ministry — “So What”. The best song from their best album? Fight me. (RIP Rieflin. God created the kick drum for him like he created the guitar for Prince. Proof.)Front Line Assembly — “Iceolate”. Remember when electro-industrial fetishized the near-future dystopian technostate? It was a lot more fun when we weren’t actually living in it. But this shit still spanks hard, so bend over.Dusty Springfield — “Spooky”.

Dr. Brandon Smith and I had an interesting discussion about his experience as a physical therapist. Though Brandon's background is mostly in orthopedic manual therapy and therapeutic exercise at the elite levels, it also consist of public health, strength and nutrition certifications, time spent in Surgical ICU wound care, Cardiac ICU, Neurological ICU, Critical Care ICU, and has recently led him into geriatrics (all affiliated settings) and home care. He uses his eclectic background to provide a comprehensive and tailored approach to each patient/client. Whether that's in the home, telehealth, or remote performance and nutrition coaching. What's really interesting is that he got into PT to work with high-performance athletes and then discovered the work wasn't fulfilling enough. He made the switch to neuro patients and found the work much more rewarding. To help teach more people outside the PT world about things happening within the PT world, he partnered with colleague and former class mate Yong Kim to launch the Physical Therapy Unleashed Podcast. Facebook Strokecast is on Facebook. I use that page for less formal thoughts on stroke and recovery. I also post videos of demos and other topics. Just recently, I created a video talking about my experience with different AFOs. Head on over to Facebook.com/strokecast to like the page and check out the videos. Hack of the Week Being a stroke survivor is complex. We have physical, medical, and daily living needs. There can also be special nutritional, social, or spiritual needs.

Good to finally carve out an evening to record another podcast. I swear, these days I blink and three or four months go by. I suppose, relatively speaking, the same could be said for this episode as it is officially the shortest podcast in CRC history, clocking in at just under one hour. "So, Mr. DJ Tintin," I'm sure you're saying to yourself, "for all my patience waiting for you to give me some new tunes you reward me with LESS music???" It seems that way. You still get the requisite 15 songs, but many of these were single or album versions as opposed to remixes. That's the only defense I have. BUT, look at this artist and track list! Those of you looking for some stuff you haven't heard before may have just hit the mother lode. The Stranglers? Our Daughter's Wedding? Not exactly household names. "Fun City", "Heartbeat City", "Still Angry"? Not exactly the songs anyone would recall off the top of their heads by Soft Cell, The Cars or Book Of Love, respectively. But enough justification. On to the bands ... So, why were the 80s so great? A loaded question to be sure. But ask yourself how many bands in recent memory could have a member, who owned a hair salon, rent out a space above said hair salon, form a band, get discovered by Bill Nelson of Be Bop Deluxe fame, decide upon wearing women's clothes for a video shot in three days on a shoestring budget and become superstars thanks in some part to a fledgling music network called MTV and a now-famous hairstyle? Such was the fate of A Flock of Seagulls, a band that certainly helped alter my musical trajectory and, with the song I Ran (So Far Away), created one of the most iconic and lasting songs of the decade. THAT is the greatness of the 80s - the fact that music was not yet paint-by-number. There was room for experimentation. Sure, you had to be marketable, but the definition of marketable was fluid. And the rules were fluid. As long as someone in the know heard something they liked or saw a creative spark it was sometimes enough for a label to take a chance on you. Spoken like someone who thinks the music they grew up with is the best, I know. But I ask again: could that backstory exist today? Perhaps, but I just don't see it. As for the song in this podcast, "Telecommunication", it is sort of a cult hit at this point and probably an accidental one at that. "(It's Not Me) Talking" was the first single release by AFOS in 1981, but it was the futuristic lyrics and "wall of sound" energy, later praised by uber-producer Phil Spector, that propelled "Telecommunication" into the clubs and into hearts of new wavers. The tune still sounds cool and futuristic even today and reminds me of a moment in time when musical possibilities were still limitless. "No sequencers were used" reads the liner notes of Our Daughters Wedding's first EP, "Digital Cowboy". Layne Rico (electronic percussion / synth), Keith Silva (vocals / synth) and Scott Simon (synth / saxophone) wanted everyone to know that their electronic wizardry and sleight of hand was due entirely to coordination and skill and not programming and triggers like many of their contemporaries such as Depeche Mode and OMD, two groups to which ODW was often compared after their switch over from punk rock and guitars to new wave and synths. And while the group, who sang about lawnchairs and made frequent appearances on MTV with Martha Quinn in the early days of the network, somewhat ironically dismissed DM and OMD as being too "gimmicky", the group did score opening slots for some of the giants of the day including Duran Duran, Talk Talk, Iggy Pop, The Psychedelic Furs and U2. They even worked with famed producer Colin Thurston to record the aforementioned EP. Not bad for a US-based band who suffered the slings and arrows and broken beer bottles of misfortune hurled at them for using electronics on stage at a time when punk was still king. But even skill and deigning to employ sequencers could not save the group from a dust up with their label, EMI. According to Scott Simon, the LA office killed the momentum of their full-length album, Moving Windows, which was released in 1982, because a label exec had a personal issue with one of the band's representatives. The track here, Auto Music, is a Razormaid! mix of the lead track to that first and only full-length. The sweet electronic bass line you hear came about from Simon and David Spradley, the producer for Moving Windows, "jamming one morning in our Union Square loft." To cut a long story short, Spandau Ballet are good. Go buy their records. Seriously, though, Spandau Ballet seems like a perfect name for a slick and sophisticated band who helped spearhead the New Romantic movement, an era of glossy images and high fashion that gave rise to groups like Duran Duran and Visage and others. That is until you remember that, like other groups, SB had their roots in the punk scene and that their name was Allied trench warfare slang for corpses whose bullet-riddled bodies twisted and danced on barbed wire as they were hit by German gunfire. Perhaps they would have been better off going with The Cut or The Makers, both previous band names. But, the name Spandau Ballet stuck as did the amazing voice of Tony Hadley, the Kemp brother's guitar prowess (Martin and Gary), Steve Norman's saxophone riffs and John Keeble's percussive underpinnings. That classic lineup produced a string of Top 10 hits (10 to be precise) including "Gold", "Only When You Leave", "True", "Chant No. 1" and the song in this podcast, "To Cut A Long Story Short", the groups' debut single, which reached #5 in the UK. Speculation surrounding the song is that it pertains to a veteran suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder after being drafted, but getting no explanation why he must join the war. This song apparently inspired Vince Clarke (Depeche Mode, Yaz, The Assembly) to write DM's third single, "Just Can't Get Enough" which, as a side note, is currently being used in a Wal-Mart advertisement. I did NOT see that coming! What more can be said about Gary Numan that hasn't already been said over the course of four decades by the music press? Probably nothing, so I'm not even going to try to break new ground. But, in case you missed it, Gary did just drop his 18th solo album, Savage (Songs From A Broken World), this past September and it instantly shot all the way up the album charts to #2 in the UK and #1 on the UK Indie charts. Call it a love of the man and his music or an indictment of the current music scene, but for a guy who goes down in history as the first artist to secure a #1 song using an all-electronic approach with the highly-coveted and frequently-covered "Are Friends Electric?" way back in 1979, the fact that Gary is still making music that questions, challenges, lifts, destroys and defies convention is impressive. Despite the lofty charting position of the new album and its predominant use of electronics, it failed to register on the Billboard Electronic charts because, according to a Billboard executive, “Sonically, the Numan album just does not fit in" with Billboard's perception of electronic dance music. Seems a bit ridiculous, but Numan is no stranger to such disinterest or indifference on the part of the music cabal. In fact, even during his heyday, "Are Friends Electric?" was perched atop the British charts for three weeks before any radio station would add it to their playlists. The song in this podcast, "I Die: You Die", which appeared in 1980 on the Telekon album a mere two years after his Tubeway Army signing with Beggars Banquet, is his rebuke of the music press and their God complex, star-maker/star-breaker tendencies. The track eventually reached #6 on the UK singles chart. And finally, speaking of the music press, the last band I'd like to mention here had them completely baffled and befuddled for the bulk of their career, or at least until 1990 when Hugh Cornwall left the group. The Stranglers, originally known as the Guildford Stranglers when they embarked as a band in 1974, were comprised of guitarist/keyboardist Hugh Cornwall, bassist/vocalist Jen-Jacques Burnel, keyboardist Dave Greenfield and drummer Brian Duffy (aka Jet Black). Though not one member hailed from Guildford, they were "tweeners" in every sense of the word, dabbling in numerous styles from electropop to soul during the course of their long and storied career. And while many of their successes came during their early punk days, they never quite fit into the punk scene. Ostracized for their relative age, their humorous, often self-deprecating lyrical style contrasted with their often anti-politically correct stage antics, their stunningly fast musical growth and development, and their hit-making skill, which generated 21 Top-40 singles, The Stranglers set themselves apart from their punk contemporaries and gave the press fits as they did not know how to put square pegs into round holes. The track here, "All Roads Lead To Rome" was from their seventh album, Feline. As you can hear, it has distinct new wave overtones, which makes total sense having been released in 1982, but it is certainly a brave departure from their earlier work. And while this track did not chart, it still stands as one of the high points from the Feline album and provides a glimpse into a chameleon-like band that was firmly in transition. Another episode in the books. Thanks for reading/listening. Enjoy the music!

Last episode, I mentioned collapsing 210 Local Music RADIO into your usual 210 Local Music Podcast episodes. Well, that starts today. When we have a new sponsorship and more time, we will definitely bring the RADIO podcast back. Until then, here is our first mixed tape episode. First off, we've got AFOS with Young and Wreckless (Interlude). Next, we've got Bekah Kelso's A Thousand Little Words. Bite Lip Bleed with He Said She Said. Black Market Club's Castles. Hydramelody's Oceans. Laura Marie with Dark Horse. March Divide's Jose Cuervo. Matt Adler's Passenger. with Circuits. Endgame. Othello with DNA (Acoustic). Phonolux with Hurricane. Secrets & Irises' Clouds with Sharp Corners. Slowlikefire's En Vacio. Tera Ferna's I Fell Off A Mountain. Wings of Valkyrie with Low. In addition to this development, I will be attending the San Antonio RAWawards show at Backstage Live tonight! I look forward to getting more involved in the community and thought that this would be the perfect opportunity. Thanks to RAW for this experience! With the temporary yet indefinite hiatus of 210 Local Music RADIO, we can't really call ourselves a podcast network. With that being said, we're currently looking to include more San Antonio podcasts and podcasters in the umbrella that is 210 Local Media. We believe that this will increase our ability to become a media force in San Antonio and change the way people consume local information and entertainment. If you're a podcaster, contact us today and we'll see what we can do to help each other. We're also very proud to say that we're currently working hard to host a Toys for Tots benefit concert at a local venue in mid/late December. An announcement had been made with details, so we could start filling the bill, but there's been a slight hiccup and we will get confirmation for the date, time, and acts very soon. One thing that has been worked out is that there will be a cover of $7 at the door, $5 with a (new-in-box) toy and free with multiple (new-in-box) toys. We're also working to get a poster out by local tattoo artist, and 210 Local Music Podcast alum, Tara Quinn! The proceeds of the sales of the posters will go to Toys for Tots as well. Stay tuned for more information on 210 for Tots on our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts.
