This is a transcription of the Disability Equity episode of the Sensational Shorts podcast, produced and recorded by Dr Charlotte Slark featuring a special guest host, Kyle Lewis Jordan.

Charlotte speaks animatedly and talks faster when she’s excited. She has a southern English accent, which a local person would identify as a somewhat polished combination of Slough and Staines upon Thames (think quite hard consonants!). It’s the accent of someone from a working-class background who has spent a lot of time having to fit-in in middle class spaces.

Kyle speaks in a calm and confident tone of voice, his words becoming softer and clearer as he settles into the conversation. He becomes more upbeat and employs emphasis when drawing attention to key concepts and ideas. He has a fairly standardised British accent, described by his friends as "The right amount of posh”; “clever, but not self-important"; "Direct impact, but not like a bell, more like timber”.

The words are circled by the 5 TSM icons in TSM colours. Moving clockwise, starting at the top: pink hands, peach ear, chartreuse eye, peach book, and chartreuse nose.]
