EPISODE SUMMARY

 the second and final episode of 'Sounding It Out’, Series 4, Julia Van Huyssteen, Head of Audiology at Signia UK and Ireland, hosts Professor Andrew Hugill from the University of Leicester to explore beyond the audiogram into various individual experiences of hearing. They delve into conditions like neurodivergence and aural divergence, explaining terms such as tinnitus, auditory processing disorder (APD), misophonia, diplacusis, and palinacousis. Professor Hugill shares personal insights and discusses the complexity each condition brings, especially in musicians.

He likens neurodivergence to the difference between operating systems like Windows and Mac. They talk about how often individuals with normal audiograms still struggle to process sound and the potential overlap with other conditions, emphasizing the need for personalized patient care. The importance of raising awareness about these conditions, making reasonable adjustments, and providing appropriate support is underscored. 

The episode stresses the importance of patient-centered care, acknowledging the unique needs and circumstances of each individual. Listeners are encouraged to visit the Aural Diversity Network website for further information and to revisit previous episodes of the podcast to expand their understanding of hearing health. 

Finally, the show calls for more dialogue on less-known conditions and invites listeners to suggest future topics to continue raising awareness about aural diversity.

EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of 'Sounding It Out,' hosted by Julia Van Huyssteen, the podcast focuses on aural diversity and hearing health, featuring guest Professor Andrew Hugill from the University of Leicester. Julia and Professor Hugel, who is also an autistic individual with severe hearing loss, tinnitus, and Meniere's disease, delve into how unique each person's hearing is and how traditional audiology norms based on a limited sample from the 1950s-60s fall short in addressing this diversity. 

They discuss the concept of aural diversity, the importance of recognizing various hearing experiences, and the founding of the Aural Diversity Network in 2018. Professor Hugel shares his personal journey of dealing with hearing differences and how it led him to create music suitable for people with aural divergences. They touch upon how socio-economic, geographical, and ethnic differences impact hearing and the critical differences in hearing at various life stages, from fetal development to old age. 

Additionally, the conversation highlights various hearing conditions like sensory-neural and conductive hearing loss, as well as auditory processing disorders and conditions like hyperacusis and tinnitus, emphasizing how these affect people beyond what is measurable by traditional audiological methods. 

Towards the end, they discuss the role of technology, from hearing aids to cochlear implants, in re-engineering the soundscape for individuals rather than merely correcting hearing loss. The episode concludes by encouraging listeners to broaden their understanding of hearing differences and inviting them to stay tuned for further episodes that will explore specific causes of hearing variations.
