In this listener-focused episode of Double Tap, Steven and Shaun start with community emails and reactions to AI tools like Perplexity and Claude, reflecting on their practical uses for blind and low-vision users. The conversation moves through the rising cost of Microsoft apps and the confusing difference between one-off licensing and discount online offers.

Accessibility is a major theme as a listener raises concerns about destination-based lifts, prompting a lively discussion about hotel infrastructure and inclusivity. Then, the hosts switch to home tech, sharing creative solutions and reviews for air fryers, including voice-activated and accessible models like those from Emerson. They also discuss Orion smart glasses, how AI-powered navigation is changing mobility, and the importance of balancing modern tools with traditional skills like cane travel.

Listener emails explore AI in daily life, prompt strategies for Orion, and managing smart home ecosystems with Google Home, Sonos, and Apple HomePods. Throughout, Steven and Shaun highlight community knowledge, tips, and the occasional humorous detour into violently sleeping or fish hammocks.
