WRBH Reading Radio 1.2.1

WRBH Reading Radio for the Blind and Print Impaired, based in New Orleans, has dedicated over 35 years to transforming written content into audible formats, ensuring that individuals who are blind or print impaired have equal access to current information alongside their sighted counterparts. The station operates on a 24/7 programming schedule that includes up-to-date journalism, literary readings, and interviews, delivered directly to streaming devices.

The recent launch of WRBH’s app, made possible through a grant from the Ella West Freeman Foundation, aims to enhance accessibility for listeners not only in New Orleans but also across the nation. The app features a live stream of the station, a weekly schedule alongside "now playing" information, an archive dedicated to interviews and podcasts, as well as contact details for WRBH's staff. Additionally, users can easily donate or subscribe to the monthly newsletter.

The diverse programming includes: daily live news broadcasts from New Orleans and around the globe; readings from prominent publications such as The New Yorker, Time Magazine, and Entertainment Weekly; literary readings of both classic and contemporary works like To Kill A Mockingbird and The Grapes of Wrath; segments focused on local events and grocery advertisements; and specialty shows including the light-hearted Sunday Satire, an informative Public Affairs series, a local poetry and fiction half-hour titled Figure of Speech, and Old Time Radio, which brings classic radio dramas from the 1930s and 1940s back to life.
