The Ramp. It. Up! Podcast
The Ramp. It. Up! Podcast is hosted by Rhonel Cinous, a C4-C5 quadriplegic, radio personality, and disability advocate. Ramp. It. Up! is meant to educate and entertain through real-life accounts of injuries, illnesses, success stories, and unbelievable antics. This podcast will give you a glimpse into the life of a wheelchair user! Though always open to sharing advice borne through his personal experiences, the show features interviews with other wheelers sharing stories about their injuries, careers, adventures, hobbies, and overall quality of life. SCI survivors range in age, ethnic backgrounds, genders, Socio-political backgrounds, and religious/spiritual beliefs but what we all have in common is that no challenges will hold us back. Ramp. It. Up!
