Civil rights advocate Marc Fishman joins host Mike Bolland to expose a deeply overlooked issue: the routine denial of disability accommodations in America’s family court system. After surviving a devastating car accident that left him with long-term disabilities and communication challenges, Marc found himself battling not only for his parental rights—but also for his basic ADA protections.
In this powerful conversation, Marc shares:
• How New York family courts repeatedly denied him accommodations like real-time transcription
• His federal ADA victories and how Tennessee v. Lane played a role
• The 49-month legal battle that forced the court to act
• Retaliation he faced from judges and public officials
• His advocacy success during COVID, helping disabled tenants secure rent grants
• The urgent need for reform and accountability in family courts nationwide
• Recent legislative wins and what they mean for disabled parents
Marc’s story is one of resilience, activism, and a fight for justice that impacts millions of disabled Americans.

In this eye-opening episode of We’re Not Stumped, host Mike Bolland speaks with Dr. Kevin Lee, a vascular and interventional radiologist at Georgia Endovascular, about why so many amputations don’t have to happen. Dr. Lee explains how misdiagnosed or untreated peripheral artery disease (PAD) is one of the leading causes of limb loss—especially among veterans, older adults, and people living with diabetes. He shares how minimally invasive endovascular procedures can restore blood flow, reduce pain, and help patients avoid amputation when disease is caught early.
