Episode Notes

Monday at 8 PM Eastern on 2020 The Beacon

Sunday Edition and Behind the Music host Anthony Corona brings you a heartfelt blend of conversation and performance in this month’s An Intimate Evening with…, featuring the deeply talented and delightfully charming duo, Lisa and Ron Brooks. From dazzling romantic duets to expressive solo performances, Ron and Lisa shine with their love of karaoke and music-making.

But this night goes beyond the mic—we talk about their marriage, creative process, favorite projects, hobbies away from the karaoke stage, and what drives their joyful artistry. An Intimate Evening airs on the first Monday of each month on 2020 The Beacon. Don’t forget—you can also catch Behind the Music on the second and fourth Friday of every month at 7 PM Eastern, only on 2020 The Beacon. We absolutely loved getting to know Lisa and Ron, and we can’t wait to see (and hear!) what they bring us next.

Episode Notes

This past Sunday on Sunday Edition, we celebrated pride, love, and possibility. 🌈❤️

We opened the show with warm congratulations for Mike Walsh on his recent engagement and upcoming wedding, kicking off Pride Month’s final week with love, joy, and community spirit.

Then we dove into an inspiring conversation with two powerhouse leaders in the world of blind travel: Mike May and Mike Walsh.

Mike May, a legend in adaptive tech and the subject of the bestselling book Crashing Through, spoke candidly about the vulnerabilities and power of sharing both struggles and triumphs with the broader world. He encouraged listeners to break out of their comfort zones, embrace the unknown, and experience the world through the lens of travel and exploration. 🌍✈️

Mike Walsh, Executive Director of the Blind Travel Foundation, shared the mission behind this dynamic new nonprofit—connecting blind and low vision travelers to resources, mentorship, and funding to help them realize their dreams of independent and meaningful travel.

Together, the Mikes discussed how travel is not just a luxury—it’s access, identity, and self-expression. They invited listeners to help grow the movement by donating or becoming sponsors. These contributions support projects that marry travel with purpose, helping members of our community expand their horizons and experience success.

We also previewed the upcoming Blind Travel Summit, happening in Austin, Texas on November 13 and 14, 2025. It promises to be a landmark gathering for advocates, travelers, innovators, and allies.

From advocacy to adventure, tech to trailblazing, this episode reminded us what’s possible when community, access, and wanderlust come together. 💪💼🌟

Episode Notes

This special Pride Month episode of Sunday Edition brought together a powerful panel of voices from our LGBTQIA+ community and allies to discuss a topic that feels more urgent than ever: why Pride still matters, now more than ever.

Host Anthony Corona was joined by four incredible panelists: Gabriel Lopez Kafati Tristan Snyder Margot Downey Brynn Lowden

Together, we explored the heart of Pride—what it means, how far we’ve come, and what we’re still fighting for. From celebration to protest, from visibility to vulnerability, our panelists reminded us why Pride is not just a party—it’s a promise.

Key topics included:

We celebrated our triumphs, acknowledged the ongoing struggles, and centered the importance of unity across identity, gender, ability, and experience.

While this episode centered voices from across the LGBTQIA+ spectrum, we also highlighted the essential role of our strong, straight, and steadfast allies. There is a seat at the table for everyone who comes with love, comes with pride, and is ready to speak truth to power.
