Episode Synopsis

Why are 1 in 4 people living with disabilities — but not even 2 in 100 movie characters reflect them? In this eye-opening episode 👀 we pull back the Hollywood curtain to expose the harsh truth: media is still flopping on representation. From “inspiration porn” to non-disabled actors “cripping up” for roles, we unpack the real impact of fake representation — and highlight the trailblazers finally getting it right. 🎥✨This one’s for the storytellers, the rebels, and the change-makers. Time to rewrite the script. 📝🔥Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Disability Employment Solutions ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ⓒ 2025⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PodPro Entertainment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#SaveAsAbility #Ability #Inclusive #Inclusivity #LaborForce #Disability #DisabilityEmployment #ReasonableAccommodation #ReelRepresentation #DisabilityInMedia #HollywoodNeedsToChange #AuthenticStories #RepresentationMatters #CrippingUpIsNotOkay #StopInspirationPorn #DisabilityIsDiversity #InclusionInFilm #FeelingThrough #CODATheMovie #DisabledAndProud #InclusiveCasting #MediaRevolution #BreakTheStereotypes #BehindTheScenesToo #DisabilityVisibility #DisruptHollywood #StorytellingThatMatters #TheNewRadio
