Double Tap - Where blind people talk tech

“Tell us about your [project/book] and the idea behind it.”

This is the standard opening question to allow the guest to introduce their work and its purpose.

“What problem were you trying to fix with this?”

Asked early on to establish the core mission and the gap the guest's project aims to fill.

“What are some of the specific projects or features in the book/app?”

Used to move from the origin story to the practical, hands-on content of the product.

“Can you give an overview of the Braille-specific features?”

A targeted question to explore functionality for a specific, important segment of the audience.

“For those who missed it, what is the name of the project we're discussing?”

A simple host mechanic used mid-interview to ensure the audience catches the name of the product or book.

“Have you received any backlash for this?”

The hosts aren't afraid to ask about controversy, particularly for new or disruptive technologies like AI.

“How does the cost or business model work for users?”

A practical question to clarify how the audience can access the tool, especially if it's free but uses paid APIs.

“For less tech-savvy users, should they get involved now or wait?”

This question seeks direct, practical advice for the audience, acknowledging the community's diverse skill levels.

“What can we, the audience, do to help?”

Often asked for community or fundraising projects to create a clear call to action for listeners.

“How do you decide when to stop adding features to avoid bloat?”

This question probes the guest's design philosophy and long-term vision for the product.

“Will users be able to [do a specific future action] with it?”

The hosts often ask about specific potential integrations, like WordPress, to understand the product's roadmap.
