You can also go to your Podcast or Downcast App and hit on the Feature Tab and find it listed there as NPR: Invisibilia. The episode Eric mentioned is called "How To Become Batman" with a 9 minute follow-up segment called "Falling Off a Cliff." These particular podcasts aired over radio (not strictly part of This American Life) gained such popularity that they have aired over and over again. There are other podcasts in this new radio series that I also feel are well worth listening to.' I note that Eric included a link to the specific podcast that features a very unusual blind individual. He is not introduced until a ways into the program.

Hello all, A friend told me about an episode of the This American Life podcast entitled Batman, which describes the experiences of a blind man and how he learned to see the world. I found it very relatable and interesting, and think many here would enjoy it. I was a little unsure what to make of it for the first ten minutes or so, but by the end was really quite moved. http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/544/batman -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
