Agreed. I just do not have the attention span for people who either do not talk, do not talk well, or especially those who do not talk faster than those IVR "press ... One ...for ........more ......options" things.

(present presenter is doing well, FWIW, so don't take this like that)

If I must wait for it to be read, be clear, be proper, be as fast as you can be while still being clear; you need to be so good that we forget we can't refer back to something else you said unless we can find it somewhere on the recording, which is a lot of rage to avoid. If we can understand an auctioneer, we can understand someone slower.

Otherwise, let me set the pace by using printed words. It's just better for everyone.

This. If I could ctl-f / cmd-f the video, it'd be less objectionable.
