[nabs-l] audio described TV shows

There actually is a schedule for each channel except Brain. If you go to the Listen Now table on the main page, clicking on the name of each channel will bring you to a page that includes a precise schedule. The only drawback is that it can be hard to hear your screenreader on that page because the channel will start playing there, too. I found that visiting the channel pages on my iPhone is better than on my computer because my phone won't let the channel start playing through the webpage. The schedules are wonderfully helpful, though, and I hope you will feel the same.
