March 26, 2021 at 12:45 PMWell you asked for it ;) Just listened through again and took notes: 2:45, 3:40, 3:42, 3:45, 4:05, 4:45, 4:53, 5:05, 5:23, 5:45, 6:26, 7:15, 7:36, 7:50, 8:25, 9:06, 9:18
I tried looking at the waveform, but there seems to be some kind of post processing that masks it visually. You still hear it very clearly though, listen for the high frequency crackles at these timestamps.

March 21, 2021 at 12:18 AMSorry if someone already complained about this, but I just noticed it again. Joy's audio is clipping very frequently, makes the otherwise great lesson somewhat hard to listen to. This also isn't the first time, I've heard this in multiple other episodes. Strangely it's just Joy most of the time who has this issue.

March 27, 2021 at 12:53 PMThanks for taking a look at it. I tried again and it's the exact same places, doesn't matter what device, with headphones or without. Take for example Joy's laugh at 7:15, followed by "exACTly that motion". The loudest parts sound distorted.

This is the waveform at that part. You see how the peaks of the larger waves have flat tops, instead of some round shape? That's what's causing the distortion. The audio levels were too high at these timestamps so the waveform was literally "cut off". One of your audio engineers or producers should be able to hear this as well and know how to mitigate this in the future.
