    Tossing it with Rahul Rai

    Our first episode for 2023 features Rahul Rai with his new book: Repurpose Me, Your Path to a Contentment Mindset. ​​Do you take life too seriously even though you know it is so temporary? Have you found yourself postponing the things that you really want to do? Do you ever wish you could enjoy your work a little more or wonder where to find purpose, happiness, or just contentment? After a near-death health experience and living through the horror of the Christchurch earthquakes, Rahul Rai started to look at the bigger purpose of all we do. As always, thanks so much to @audiobooksnz for making Sound Salad possible!

    Tossing it with Theo Gibson - AI Audiobook Production

    We’re chatting about the impending doom that is the use of artificial intelligence and cloned or computer-generated voices as replacements for narrators and actors in the audiobook industry. Join me as I talk through the nitty gritty with Theo Gibson, founder and head of AudiobooksNZ, who has a breadth of experience and opinion on the subject of AI and what it means for the audio publishing industry. We share some horror stories and what we can expect as we move ahead with the knowledge that AI is here to stay, we just have to learn to live with it and safely protect ourselves from being exploited as it continues to learn from the infinite melting pot of content and information available on it’s feeding ground; the internet. We’re hopeful the layperson - or indeed any human who enjoys listening to long-form content, podcasts, audiobooks and stories can become advocates for the continued use of human voices, instead of letting us be taken over by robots.

    Tossing it with Minnie Baragwanath

    I was delighted to be the narrator for Minnie's autobiographical book Blindingly Obvious which tells of her travels and stories as a partially sighted woman and access advocate, and her quest to build a more equitable and accessible world. The book was destined to be the countries ‘most accessible published book’ to date - which I believe it is, given that it's available as a printed text, an audiobook, it's the first full non-fiction book to be translated into NZ sign language, it is soon to be released episodically as a podcast series and will be coming to a Braille and e-braille format as well. The next step is te reo Māori, other global languages and beyond. Check out her work at www.minnieb.co.nz or contact her at minnie@minnieb.co.nz  PmR3H4p0q91XTuRFestp
