Speed up reading? #24

Open astrofrog opened 8 years ago

And maybe consider offering two speeds? (though one would be best, to avoid confusion and limit disk usage)

I think maybe just an ooch faster would satisfy most demographics. I haven't heard anyone ask for slower yet.

I'm not super keen on speeding things up. I don't think it'll make it easier to understand for the most part. But if we do speed up (like, a tiny amount?) can we leave Sangeeta at her current speed? She seems to talk faster than the others.

@astrokatie - yes, i think they have different default speeds. I'll play around with that today before generating today's episode (I'm also testing out the fully automated build today)

Actually if you listen to the latest podcast, the first abstract is already read quite fast, so I'm not sure about speeding up. It doesn't sound great (a little jumpy) when sped up.
