As many of you know, Adam Savage wears a hearing aid (like me!) In this Ask Adam, he answers Tested Patron Joe Niedbala’s question: “As someone who has been forthcoming about your own hearing-related issues, why do you think that more attention has not been given to this topic, both from a preventative and a treatment perspective? So many people refuse to acknowledge they have a problem. Hearing aids are marketed to primarily the elderly, making hearing loss seem an age-related issue and a shameful sign of frailty, rather than something that can affect anyone in our loud, industrial world.”
