Really interesting topics but poor audio and playback

I had high hopes for this, but it is really in a video format that doesn't play back well on my phone, and the audio quality is poor, so it's not something with which I will continue listenning. The topics are brilliant, but I can't learn it if I can't hear it or play it.
