- Society & Culture
Dave Bahr is an author, speaker, and comedian focused on demystifying the public's perception of how to interact with people with disabilities. As the founder of In-Sightful Living, Dave works as an accessibility consultant, aiding organizations to enhance their systems, environments, events, and cultures to be supportive of people with disabilities. Blind from birth, he teaches that having a disability is not a hindrance, but an asset.
Dave holds a B.A. in Psychology and a Masters of Historical Musicology from the University of Colorado at Boulder and is proud to have studied with the Coaches Training Institute to further his personal development and leadership skills.
Dave's funny and often irreverent wit allows him to use storytelling to illustrate that people should not be afraid of disability. He encourages curiosity, tact, and humor over political correctness, fear, and ignorance. Outside of accessibility and advocacy, he is passionate about music and baseball. In-SightfulLiving.com

Episode 5 - In-Sightful Living, scams in this strange new world
This is a story that inspired me to start this podcast up again. A strange scam that happened to me a few weeks back. I've decided to tell more stories a la Jean Shepherd-style monologues and share my experiences in life and philosophies. Enjoy and do leave a review on ITunes or drop me a line if you like.

Episode 4 - Music History Series - The Blues Before WWII
This episode is the first in a series on music history. I have a Masters in musicology and felt like some levity was needed in these times of craziness and uncertainty. So I present to you a little bit of history on the blues before the second world war. in the first recording, and point out the blues form and then play the song in full again. Next, I present some acoustic blues and give a little bit of history and my opinion on the singers. I hope you enjoy it; I did this from memory just because I'm passionate about the subject and didn't want to bog everybody down with facts and figures and dates and things of that nature. Do let me know what you think by leaving a review.
Alt Text of Picture as told to me by an Aira agent: the picture is of Bessie Smith, one of the first great female blues singers, singing into a microphone labeled CBS, so it's at the cbs studios presumably. It is a black-and-white photo and she appears to be wearing some sort of halter top and her mouth is open as she is singing. Behind her you can see the glass of the control room and people watching. -
Episode 3: Vision Coaching Using Examples of Face Vocal Band and a Jean Shepherd Episode
Episode three of the In-Sightful Living podcast is a rather lengthy one discussing my experience with Face Vocal Band at Red Rocks on 07/10/2019. They also discuss an episode of the Jean Shepherd show from 1971 which concerns a letter from a prisoner that he read on the air. This all ties into my idea of Vision Coaching. I Hope you enjoy this monologue. Please leave a review of the podcast wherever you happen to be listening to it and feel free to email me about your Vision at dave@in-sightfulliving.com
