Pimsleur has audio only programs for Japanese that are fantastic. I've been considering learning it for a while and did the demo on the app and it was really enjoyable.

what level are you at with your Japanese currently? That could help find some suggestions for you.
On a personal note, I'm not blind but I love to just listen to the audio of TV shows and movies dubbed into Japanese while I fall asleep. I take the source video and run it through ffmpeg and upload the audio file to my plex media server and voila! I can listen to the audio only while I go to sleep. I think the amount of benefit you get out of the TV Show/Movie for learning the language is directly correlated to how well you know that TV Show/video. It really helps you pick up on idioms you might not hear or understand otherwise.
Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

japanesepod has some nice content. I'd say the first seasons are a bit... Artificial, but stuff is there.
There's the Tae Kim's guide, which you can find as a pdf file. It focuses mainly on grammar which might be boring, but it's quite helpful. Pimsleur is good because it forces you to speak, but I've heard the phrases aren't the most natural. There is more stuff but I haven't studied Japanese in a while.

To learn Japanese I use Duolingo.

Plenty of things out there if you do a bit of googling. r/japanese does have a wiki with a metric ton of resources, a lot of which are accessible enough :)

First, youtube. Also, do you have a local library card? Most local libraries have audio books that you can check out online and stream. My library has a series of audiobooks for multiple different languages. Explore that option
