At Aruma, we love podcasts that give people with disability a platform to share their stories, opinions, and experiences. So, we’re sharing some of our favourite podcasts with you!
Many of us love listening to a good podcast, and it’s easy to see why! In addition to being entertaining and teaching us something new, you can listen to a podcast anywhere – at home, in the car, on a plane, just to name a few places.
Check out our recommendations below to hear from activists, advocates, and everyday Australians with disability, as they chat about accessibility, relationships, employment, disability pride, and so much more.
Hosts Dylan Alcott AO and Angus O’Loughlin speak with people with disability about their lives and ask them the questions you thought were off-limits. ListenABLE aims to break down stigmas, change perceptions, and challenge what you think it’s like to live with disability.
You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll learn something. This is a podcast for everyone. – Dylan Alcott

Listen to DSC’s podcast to hear from guests who have carved their own paths in the disability sector, as they share the lessons they’ve learnt along the way.
A great episode to listen to is “the kind of conversations that come about when passionate people aren’t afraid to speak their minds.”
If you’ve ever had to navigate the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), you know it can be a complex, changing and confusing process. That’s why this podcast exists to support parents to advocate for the best NDIS plans for their children. It’s also worth listening to if you work with NDIS participants, particularly children. Host Melanie Dimmitt chats with fellow parents and professionals in the disability space, sharing stories, tips, and tools to help others successfully navigate the NDIS.
