How do they enjoy such things with little or no eyesight? Blind adventurer and unashamed geek Joshua Loya (52 Masters, Miracle in Malibu) and actor/writer Scott Brick (audiobook narration, Dune, Shannara series) are joined by actor and audio description advocate Roy Samuelson (Star Trek Discovery, Westworld) to share what options exist for nonvisual entertainment.
