hi hello hey, we’ve got some juicy stories for you today!

Before we get to that, this episode comes out on Rare Disease Day (2/28/2023) and we have an exciting announcement: we’re doing another merch fundraiser for the Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome Network! This year, we’re selling bucket hats with our logo embroidered on them. For all the details, check out our fundraiser page or the campaign on Custom Ink. The campaign ends March 24, 2023, so be sure to get those orders in and help support HPS research!

It’s no secret that we can’t drive since we’re legally blind (check out our episode on driving!), so we use rideshare like Uber and Lyft as our main independent transportation. Spending so much time in strangers’ cars often leads to interesting stories, and that’s what this episode is all about. We hope you enjoy our wild rideshare stories, both good and bad, blindness-related and not!
