Summary

Dave used to listen to everything sped up with silence trimming and noticed he was irritable with his family after commutes. Switching back to normal speed felt slow for a few days, then reset his brain and improved his conversations.

    I just changed everything back to normal speed cut out the good out the solid choppers. And, and at first, it was painful. I was like, it feels so slow. But then after about a week, I'm like, Oh, this is actually normal.

    it took two or three days for me to get used to not hearing you like that. But then it's like is as soon as my mind adjusted to it, everything else fell into place
