Do you have a way to demo the voice without downloading and running the model? The Huggingface playback doesn't work.

Trying to access the wave files directly reveals: Access to model destined/hurston-1 is restricted and you are not in the authorized list. Visit https://huggingface.co/destined/hurston-1 to ask for access.
