Show notes

In this episode, Ray and Sam examine the lack of audio and visual announcements on DDOT buses, unpack the "English-only & accessibility-as-an-afterthought" culture at DDOT and discuss why something as simple as audio announcements at each stop seems to be a tall order for DDOT. Don’t understand the new DART fare system? Don’t worry, we got your pass! It's not all doom and gloom here. We also share some feel good stories about our positive experiences while riding the bus. Join us and come sip this scorching hot tea at the Bottom Line Coffee House.
