Hearing Things with Julie and Brad show aims to educate, inform and entertain by showing that there is more than one way to be hard of hearing. They hope to destigmatize hearing loss and jumpstart the conversation with in the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Community in hopes of getting others to share what works for them. They use various platforms to accomplish this in different ways.
A Facebook Group group features long-form videos and links to blog posts. Since so many people are already on the site, it’s a way for members of the group to share their own experiences related to that week’s topics.
A YouTube channel makes those long-form videos available to folks not on Facebook.
An Instagram account features shorter videos and pictures often reviewing venues, books, and other situations that are related to hearing loss.
Lastly, they each have a blog where they write about the challenges of navigating a world not made with our hearing needs in mind.
