> 3-4x play back speed

This boggles my ears. I've only ever found one guy I can listen to at 2x because he talks... so... slowly.

It just takes some practice. Visually impaired who use screen readers listen at 3-4x speed, 5x if very proficient. Premium has smart playbackspeed, so you can set to 2x and it will speed through silent parts up to 4x, it's useful for other reasons.
