I usually prefer to read something than having it explained in a video.

This rather reminds me a bit of my ex-husband. He talked very fast and went on sometimes for hours. It felt like he never took a breath and rarely made a mistake. His brother was the same way. Both were often oblivious to the listener(s), it is like once they started, they couldn't turn off.
