Article 19 is a podcast rooted in the firm belief that access to information is a human right. Here we offer conversations and interviews for increasing awareness, empathy, and expertise around digital inclusivity. A little nerdy, and a little techy, we hope listeners end up more informed too. We will also address why the oxford comma is awesome, and always more accessible.

Speech recognition technology has evolved from clunky early tools into powerful systems built into the devices we use every day. But for people with disabilities, these tools are far more than convenient; they can be life-changing.
In this episode, host Katie Samson traces the story of speech recognition through the lived experiences of Marcus Goldman, whose father with ALS used Dragon in its early days; physicist Jim Isenberg, who relies on Dragon after a spinal cord injury; and web developer Leah Mattern, who breaks down how design decisions impact user experience. Together, they explore the independence, frustrations, and opportunities that voice technology creates, and why inclusive design matters now more than ever.
