HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted June 23, 2020 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Today I started listening to a new audiobook. It struck me that one of the narrators sounded exactly like the narrator from a book I listened to years ago. In fact, it was a book I listened to again while training my first CI over 5 years ago. I searched online and it is the same narrator! I remember when I couldn’t tell if a voice was male or female! Now I recognize voices of narrators from audiobooks! I love listening with my CIs! Tell us about your recent WOW moments! Megan L. and JosephG 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JosephG Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 @Mary Beth I’ve had a similar experience with my left CI, but as pertains to podcasts instead of audiobooks. Keep in mind, I really hadn’t heard anything out of my left ear for my entire life (but my right ear used to be completely normal) and when I got my CI 10mos ago I couldn’t understand a thing. Now I can listen to podcasts and though the comprehension still isn’t entirely there, but I can now certainly recognize the voices and the accents and know who is speaking, even I don’t understand every word of it all yet. Neil deGrasse Tyson (StarTalk) is very close to the same Neil I hear with my right ear, which is quite fascinating (and he is not alone in that respect)!
