The CastABLE Podcast

The castABLE Podcast is a space where we come together to discuss, educate, listen and abolish ableism in the entertainment industry. Both Queen hosts are very successful in this Industry. Kumi was born with a disability. Benai was an able bodied woman for 43 years of her life until an injury she sustained, eventually led her to becoming disabled..

Ableism is real, and education, and discussion is the only way to combat that. We created a space for people to understand without prejudice or labels. With the entertainment industry being the place where imagination can become reality, we thought that this was a GREAT place to start.

If you are a disabled creative
If you are an able bodied creative.
If you have questions or want to understand
If you are the parent of a disabled creative.
We want to hear from you!!

People with ALL disabilities - visible and invisible are welcome here and will be a part of the conversation.
