    Just a thing: I don't know who's encharged of the close captioning but I'd suggest to remove them. They're seriouslly wrong at some parts: 42:07 is an example.

  • @pisforpillow It's a computer program ;) Unfortunately there is still a long way to go before we have programs that approach human levels of speech-hearing abilities. Also I enjoy the way you say 'encharged of' instead of 'in charge of' - it's cute xD
