hi hello hey, what do you mean 2025 is over?? We truly cannot believe another year (and season SIX of Rare with Flair) is coming to a close. Before we get sappy, we’re keeping up our longtime tradition of recapping the year. These episodes mean a lot to us—they’re like little time capsules of what our lives looked like at the end of each year. It’s also a chance to pull back the curtain just a bit and let you in on what we were up to throughout the year (with boundaries, of course). Oh—and ther...

hi hello hey — let’s chat about accessibility! We’ve touched on accessibility throughout past episodes, but this week we’re giving it the spotlight it deserves. It’s a topic close to both our hearts — especially Cass’, since she works in digital accessibility! There’s a common misconception that making something accessible somehow makes it worse, but in reality, designs created for people with disabilities often end up benefiting everyone. In the accessibility world, this is known as the curb-c...

hi hello hey, we finally got our Hogwarts letters!!! Okay, not really, but our long-awaited trip (a year and a half in the making!) finally happened. We took Rare with Flair to Universal Studios Florida and spent two magical days exploring the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

Naturally, we showed up in full house-pride outfits—Casey in Ravenclaw b...

hi, hello, hey, we’re talking all about guide dogs today! 🦮 Over the years, we’ve gotten lots of requests to make an episode all about guide dogs. Whether you’re seriously considering one or just curious about what it takes to get a working dog, this episode is for you!

hi hello hey, sometimes we can’t see things… and maybe that’s okay? Like most of our episodes, this topic was inspired by something in our real lives – in this case, a fantastic interview with Camryn Yule (YouTube), a person with albinism who was in Wicked! No spoilers, but Camryn talks about the need to “read the room” and be discerning about when to request accommodations, and when to let it go, to not hold up production in a fast-paced environment. This sentiment really resonated with us, an...
