No Limits Season 11 DVD Now Available!

Season 11 of No Limits is now available to take home and own on DVD. This hot new season has fresh new faces, stories and laughs. With the departure of Gary Newton, Elvira Alic teams up with Phineas Meere and Carly Findlay, who bring their experience of the airwaves and online journalism to the silver screen! The three explore the way disability weaves into politics, ethnicity, sexuality, employment, community, growing up, sports, media and even trek out to rural Australia to bring you the story of the First Peoples.

Find out why there is no such thing as 'disability' aboriginal community. Check out our stand-out panel on sexuality led by the much loved Akash Temple. Simon Lane also continues to keep things fresh with his original mix of humour and current affairs in 'Not the News'.

You can order the series by downloading the order form here, or via credit card online through the secure server at paypal:

Grit reaches out to the 'Condescending Tool'

Grit Media's Condescending tool has gone viral! Share it round and help make condescending tools a thing of the past. The following was sent in by one of our viewers, and we had to share it:

"Our son Will has CP and he's just sent me the "Condescending Tools" video on you tube.

ABSOLUTELY SENSATIONAL!!!!

I'm going to forward it to as many people as there are in my contacts list. This kind of thing happens to our son all the time and at 16 he's getting a little tired of it. He just turns off now if someone speaks to him like that. It's a hard habit/assumption for people to break but hopefully this video will go viral and the Condescending Tool will be a thing of the past. While the video is in great taste and the message is delivered in a light-hearted way, it's to be hoped that it opens the eyes of the potential CT. Something the "Old Time Cerebral Palsy" crew in the future can look back on and laugh as they tell their tales to the youngies of what it used to be like back in the bad old days.

Thanks for a good old-fashioned belly laugh." - Robert
