[Trainer-Talk] Favorite Assistive Technology podcasts

In addition to the podcasts already named, I would recommend Tech Talk
from AccessibleWorld. They do a live weekly show every Monday night
and it is recorded and distributed via podcast a day or two later.
They talk with many well-known leaders in assistive technology, as
well as lesser known companies. they also have people on to talk about
specific technology, such as iOS or Android access, the Amazon Alexa,
antivirus software, and more. Main Menu is another good one from ACB
Radio. They do much the same as Tech talk, except that Main menu is
pre-recorded and Tech Talk is live . You can find both of these in
your favorite podcast app or client of choice. For mainstream tech, I
would recommend several podcasts from TWIT, such as the main TWIT (or
this week in tech), iOS Today, and others. They have lots of different
mainstream tech oriented shows, which have very knowledgeable hosts
and guests on them.

Have fun and welcome to the list,
Wayne Merritt
