I'll bet they've got a great collection.  What a shame it can't be played
on LTAR.  I haven't thought it through or researched it, but I assume
there'd be legal complications.

I realize it's hard to get such jobs these days, but I would think that
radio announcing would be a natural.  There'd have to be some way to get
them scripts in braille, but I suspect that can be done.  Likewise, almost
any kind of telephone work.
