Stargardt macular degeneration is a genetic eye disease that affects about 1 in 8 to 10 thousand people.
Jeff Hoskins is a sound engineer, drummer, and a decreasingly avid cyclist who has Stargardt's.
We chat about his condition; its origins, symptoms, and challenges. We also try to make a fancy cocktail called the Eye Opener from an old mixology manual that Jeff gave me. He helps me record this episode, and I help him sew. Plus--drum solo!
