CKiW iRADIO 76’s ”THE 5:15 SHOW” WITH GUEST KRISTIN HINDERLITER OF THE HINDERLITER HEARING SERVICES

It is amazing how much we depend on our ears, yet it is almost the last thing that we protect. Once that hearing is gone, try as you might to get even a little of it back. Kristin Hinderliter is our guest today to talk about how to keep your hearing well and what to do to protect it , especially if you are around high volumes (anyone say drag racing?). Topics on today's show include: hearing aids progress in the modern age, how guys don't hear women's voices when they get older, blue tooth aids, how there isn't a stigma about getting help for your hearing, are they mumbling or is it you, putting your fingers in your ears is not an answer, earphones please, bobby pins is not for ears, how to clean your ears correctly, hearing scams, candle in your ear(stop!) and so much more. We really like Ms. Hinderliter. It"s a unique situation to have to seek help for your hearing if you feel that you are losing some of it. Some wont admit to it. With the effervescence that Ms. Hinderliter has for Audiology, we were pleasantly surprised when we first communicated with her. Our recommendation, just go. You got nothing to lose but your hearing...
