Sight Unseen
Sight Unseen is a podcast hosted by Jason Denton, a legally blind man who recommends movies to watch… because he can’t! Go on this journey with him as he learns to enjoy movies in a brand new way. Jason earned his Bachelors of Science Degree in Theatre Education from Appalachian State University in Boone, NC. He co-founded the improv troupes, "Noun" and "J/K Comedy" and "Killer Theatre." He writes stand up comedy and listens to movies from his home in Asheville, NC. He's watched almost every Siskel and Ebert episode on YouTube and decided he could do that, too.
