You're listening to episode FIFTY and the final episode of Have The Nerve for 2024.
On this episode we’re going to talk about equity. Are the opportunities for people, specifically students with disabilities, fairer in 2024 than they were in, let's say, 2000?
16 year old high school student Lara Grimson comes on the podcast to share her story about trying to find work experience as a person with disability and how it bears an eerie resemblance to Susan's experience 24 years ago.

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.
