Good content; poor production

The content is as good as you’d expect, but such a large organization can invest in better and more consistent sound quality. Listening, particularly on headphones, can be brutal.

Audio was inconsistent. One speaker was so soft that it made the other’s volume exceptionally loud. Bottom line, good content but the technical issue meant I bagged it half way thru
