Nas Campanella is the National Disability Affairs Reporter at the ABC and one of the most recognisable disabled voices in Australian media. In this episode, she reflects on the responsibility of reporting on disability in Australia and the issues shaping the lives of disabled people today, from the NDIS to employment and education.

We also talk about representation in journalism, living with blindness and Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy, and navigating motherhood as a disabled woman.

This episode marks the final conversation of season five of The I Can’t Stand Podcast. Season six will return later in 2026.
