It depends on the software too. With the good tools at some point vocals will slur into consonants, but it never gets choppy.<p>It also depends a lot on the source material. This for example is sooooooo slow: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;soundcloud.com&#x2F;diezeit&#x2F;auf-ein-fruhstucksei-mit-aus-die-zeit-022016" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;soundcloud.com&#x2F;diezeit&#x2F;auf-ein-fruhstucksei-mit-aus-...</a> (german, but I think you can hear the speed)<p>This is what I listened too a lot, maybe I&#x27;d should have claimed lower speeds for the other podcasts :) But your native language (german for me) is also easier.
