In this “Generations Part Two” episode of AT Banter, Rob and Ryan welcome back Clement Chou, Albert Ruel, Betty Nobel, and Russell Leung for a lively, thoughtful – and often very funny – conversation about the generation gap in the blindness community. Together they tackle big questions like what can older and younger blind people genuinely learn from each other, and how do we move from talking about intergenerational connection to actually getting people in the same room. From ideas like mixed‑generation potlucks and food‑centric meetups, to honest talk about advocacy burnout, mental health, resilience, and learning to step outside your comfort zone, this episode is both warm and hopeful. By the end, there’s a real sense that something new could emerge – regular in‑person gatherings, new community spaces, maybe even a Part Three in this series.
