Join athletes, authors, artists and advocates as they share their experiences living in a world that wasn't built for every body, and small ways we can make it better.

Paraclimbing! Wheelchair basketball! MURDERBALL? Oh My!
Paraclimbing national champion and BORP Adaptive Sports CEO Emily Seelenfreund joins Phoebe to reflect on their adaptive approaches to rock climbing. Andrew asks some sutmblingly naive questions about paraclimbing and wheelchairs. Our conversation sprawled into some other great topics we couldn't fit into this episode (namely WICKED and media representations of wheelchair users), so you'll hear more from Emily soon!
Drinks we drank:
tetley tea
flying embers orange peach passion kombucha
latte with fancy frothing
Things we mentioned:
International Paraclimbing Competitions (and Phoebe's gold medal!)
BORP Adaptive Sports & Recreation
OI: osteogenesis imperfecta
How wheelchairs fit in cars
Murderball
Power Soccer
