This show is an educational, empowering and enlightening show for both the blind and sighted! My family and I tune in as much as we can since we have a blind family member, and we have learned a lot! Thank you Blind & Beyond!

Blind and Beyond Radio Show is a beacon of light focusing on the blind and visually impaired community. Guests are interesting and Michael and Lynne Golder, Co-...Host and Executive Producer work tirelessly to bring interesting people to the radio show. Take time to listen in to the show. Thank you Michael and Lynne for all you do honoring your audience and guests. Regards, Ron, Blind Judo Foundation. 
  • Michael and Lynne Golder's  program is, without exaggeration, one of a kind. While there is a countless amount of Web sites covering products, services and issues regarding visual impairment I don't know of any other syndicated radio program which addresses this topic on a weekly basis. The program is both entertaining and informative and it's bound to have something for everyone. Whether it's sports, technology or some other topic this show reminds us all that visually impaired people can do just about anything they want to do in our society. There are still many visually impaired people who depend solely on radio for their entertainment and news, and this show will do a great deal, particularly for those who may be shut-ins or who just may be feeling isolated and who need to hear that they're not alone. I am happy to recommend the Blind and Beyond Radio program to blind and sighted listeners alike.

“I’ve known Michael and Lynne Golder for several years now and in that time they’ve proven to be steadfast champions for the empowerment of people living with vision loss.  As a mother of a child with sight-impairment, and as the leader of an organization that serves Central Florida’s community of blind and visually impaired, I am always seeking out opportunities and forums where I can carry our message that a full life is possible beyond the restrictions of vision loss.  The Blind & Beyond Radio Show is one such forum.  The show is fun and informative and not at all  afraid to tackle the tough issues.  I like the way it actively challenges myths and stereotypes associated with people living with vision loss and seeks to build a bridge of understanding between the sighted community and the community of blind and visually impaired individuals.  If Blind & Beyond didn’t exist, someone would have to create it because it is truly an indispensable resource and I’m happy to call its hosts colleagues and friends.”

​Blind and Beyond Radio Show has become a greatinformational tool for
visually impaired, blind, and sighted persons. I enjoy the show because of
all of the educational aspects regarding blindness. It is also informative
as to what is available as resources throughout the blindness world, as well
as entertaining, with the prizes you can win! I also feel it is a great way
to demonstrate to the sighted community that blind and visually impaired
persons are active and involved, leading very normal and productive lives.
Michael and Lynne are truly an inspiration to the visually impaired sector of
our community. Keep up the good work!

​,, I'm an avid listener to Blind & Beyond. I love the variety of information, education, and entertainment the show offers up every Sunday evening. More importantly, I feel so connected to this show and its visually impaired community, which is something that can be very tough to find out there. I'd highly recommend this show to anyone with a visual impairment and anyone who is sighted and wants to learn more about how capable members of the visually impaired community actually are.

The Blind and Beyond radio show is an excellent opportunity to learn and discuss issues facing the blind and visually Impaired community. I have been on the show a number of times as a Rehabilitation Professional who works with blind and visually impaired......and, as a friend to the show.   I am always pleased to answer questions and to learn about special upcoming events in the community. Michael and Lynne Golder have put their heart and soul into the show and it shows. Every time I am on the show the times goes so fast, but when you are having fun….
Can’t wait until I am ask to be on the show again.
