(6,681 posts)There are thousands of videos on YouTube with this style of narrative. Ugh. Now I realize why I hated it so much, it's not real. Give me a real human voice with real human inflection and emotion.

Being from the south I like the sound of the narrative they way some word are drawn out instead of just spoken.
An a lot of instances expressed that I had forgotten about. This one about children being a form of currency. Easy sold and bartered away.
Reminding me of the girl that Epstein "stole" from Trump's Mar a Lago.

(6,681 posts)It's the cadence and the rhythm of the "speaker". I have no trouble with the story, but the voice makes my teeth grind. I like to hear an emotion behind the words. I can now say, I like to hear a human behind the voice. I now know that's what's missing for me. I didn't realize it before. Sometimes I am so "old world".

(19,918 posts)It seems most of these You Tube stories are AI creations from actual Reddit stories.
But this narrator seems better than most of the audio books I have bought. Daniel Suarez uses a pretty good narrator for his books.

Thanks for a good story.,
