If you are interested in speech recognition, Mozilla just released a big open corpus of speech data and some trained models.

Visual Basic is a fine programming language with very weird syntax. Hell, Microsoft has put out .NET bindings for CNTK so you could even use that.

Old Microsoft Speech API would be a good fit here. I miss it. Back in 2007 I made myself a voice control interface for changing music playback. Trainable, completely off-line. Worked like a charm.
