Repetitive poorly edited listen

This seems to have been written by different people with no cross referencing as to what the other has said, so there is repeat information. Edits are not concise so the reading is disjointed with the stop and start of an edit covering the same words. The computer enhancement runs sentences together so there is no clear beginning or end in places.
The information was interesting but it was an annoying listen and not the standard I expected.
