Like explicitly a character with vocal aid is only available in audio format. It is valuable to hear his modulated voice, but it would also be really meaningful if deaf and hard-of-hearing fans could experience these stories too.

Yes, and in case you didn't mention it - especially disappointing when these Audible originals feature one of the first clearly identified disabled characters.

They're gonna come for Medicaid, for the ADA, for IDEA, trying to take them down in whole or in part, doing so with laws but moreso with regulations or non-enforcement, and we're gonna need a lot of help.

I've been trying really hard to practice non-reactivity to the deluge of offenses meant to overwhelm our senses. Just trying to practice self-care.
But this... this got me.

And finally a great win for Outlaws publisher @ubisoft.com for Most Dedicated Publisher, which recognizes their work across the company and its communications, including a preview event for accessibility-oriented creators that took place before the game's release.

(Steve may be biased, as he also provided the English voiceover translation for Jabba in the game's audio description. 😀)

Outlaws wins its first award, for AAA Excellence!
As host Steve Saylor points out, Star Wars being such a huge cultural franchise, this kind of achievement really means a lot.
