143. “anyways, i’m disabled”

by Cassandra Mendez · May 12, 2026

hi hello hey — we’re visually impaired

Hopefully this isn’t news to our audience considering we’ve made nearly 150 episodes of us yapping, largely about our blindness. We’ve done many an episode about disclosing our disabilities in different settings — jobs, friendships, dating, and learning how to say just enough without accidentally info-dumping on unsuspecting strangers.

Even with the same jobs and friends, we still find ourselves disclosing all the time, but nowhere does it feel more constant than while dating.

Cass is out there, and before meeting the love of her life, Case also often found herself playing what felt like a game: trying to disclose casually in a way that felt conversational instead of Serious™. Somewhere along the way, we realized we’d both become oddly skilled at finding ways to bring up blindness in nearly any topic of conversation.

Naturally, we decided to turn it into an actual game.

In this episode, we put our disclosure abilities to the test: can we find a way to disclose our blindness with any conversation prompt?
