> The 2018 national convention is at hand, and everyone is eagerly anticipating the week of excitement and inspiration which lies ahead. Though we would love to see every member of our Federation family in Orlando, we recognize that not everyone will be able to join us in person. That's why we at 195 The Globe are proud to present the online stream of this year's convention, together with exclusive coverage you'll only hear on our station! As part of this coverage, we're giving you an opportunity not just to listen, but to participate in convention with us on air. Here's how you can listen to the stream and interact with the team:
> 
> > Tune In: 195 The Globe offers a myriad of ways to listen to our convention coverage. Of course, you can access the stream in either your favorite media player or your Web browser by visiting 195theglobe.com and clicking on our "Listen" page. But you can also listen on virtually all devices you have! If you would like to listen on your smartphone or tablet, download the free TuneIn Radio app from the iOS App Store or the Google Play store, then search for 195 The Globe. If you want to enjoy convention with Alexa, you need only say, "Alexa, play 195 The Globe on TuneIn." On a Google Home, just replace "Alexa" with "Hey Google". If you have a notetaker or a Digital Talking Book player such as the Victor Reader Stream with ooTunes functionality, search for 195 The Globe and the stream will play. You can even listen with your touch-tone phone and on NFB-Newsline! Need more information, including our streaming schedule? It's all here: https://nfb.org/convention/2018/stream. Be sure to join us for the Pre-session Coverage listed in the streaming schedule, as we'll be airing interviews with various Federation leaders who play an important part in making convention possible, including some whose voices you might not have heard before!
> 
> > Tweet In: Here at The Globe, we believe that if we want to give you the coverage you deserve, we must be actively engaging with you on social media. For that reason, we will be active on our Twitter throughout the week, highlighting our broadcasts, tweeting about special moments on the convention floor, and taking your feedback. We invite you to follow us on Twitter at @195_theglobe, and to monitor the hashtags #NFB18 and #GlobeOnAir. We will use both hashtags frequently to tweet about what we're up to in Orlando, including information about our special on-air coverage. If you want to give us some feedback or just say hi, feel free to mention @195_theglobe in a tweet and we just might read it on-air!
> 
> > Call In: We're excited to partner with the Nation's Blind Podcast to give you an opportunity to share your convention memories, stories and feedback in a voicemail! Just call the podcast's feedback line at (410) 659-9314, extension 2444. Leave your message in the voicemail box, and you might hear your message on-air. Hosting a banquet listening party? Invite us in virtually! Heard something which struck a chord with you? Tell us about it! Have a special convention memory or magic moment? Share your story! Whether it's before or during convention, leave us your voicemail and let us hear from you.
