Really excited for the hearing aids change! I know two people personally who have hearing loss and have been waiting for this so they can get affordable hearing aids.

My wife accuses me of hearing loss. You and I know that it is selective hearing.

Looks like Roberts, Gorsuch, Kavenaugh, and Thomas will be looking for noise cancellation ear buds instead.

One positive about virtual hearings is that I’m finally able to hear the judge better. Or at least I can turn it up. The courtroom sound system in person is not great for people who struggle to hear.

I have the opposite problem which is much of the time the audio on BlueJeans is so atrocious that I cannot hear

Same here. I’ve had one or two where I had to crank the volume up all the way and then stick my ear about an inch or two from the speaker.
