Is it me or do these content creators always take three times longer to tell us something than necessary? Rachel Maddow does this, also. I really don't have to be told the same thing five times.
I noticed the same. I suspect they get paid by the minutes viewed.
I skip ahead when they repeat and I bail out once they are done and do a promotion at the end. In this case i was preparing lunch and didn't get a chance to skip... oh well.
For a lot of what I view on YouTube I adjust the playback speed to 2x, and speech is still pretty understandable. For those people who tend to talk faster (I'm looking at you ProjectFarm) I have to settle for 1.5x or 1.75x. It's gotten to the point where I don't even remember what some of these people sound like at 1x speed.
