This is a simple, unofficial web app that helps you switch back and forth between the Critical Role podcast and YouTube videos. It can also take you directly to the appropriate point in the episode transcript.
Listening to the podcast but want to see the map Matt just pulled out? Need to switch to audio for your daily commute? This app exists to make these tasks easier.
Given your current playback position in one medium, it will calculate the corresponding time in the other, accounting for differences caused by the mid-session break, altered introductions, and variable playback rate.

HUGE thanks to @bauersimon for his help with developing tools for automated timestamp synchronization, without which the project may have never recovered from the near-fatal blow of dynamic ads!
Special thanks to u/scruffed_books_fire / @theDragonTurtle for his massive timestamp contributions, invaluable debugging efforts, and enthusiastic support!
Thanks also to @brojam, u/CantReadMaps, @the-soul-keeper, and nebula for contributing timestamps!
Special thanks to u/silxx for creating the API for linking to transcripts!
