Technical Audio Issues on Rogan Episode 1533

Technical errors during the recording or transcoding of Joe Rogan Experience episode 1533 resulted in a slight slowdown of the audio. The mismatch between 48 kilohertz and 44.1 kilohertz caused the speakers' voices to sound slightly slurred or "hammered" in the final MP3 release. Listeners are advised to play the episode at 1.1x or 1.2x speed to hear the natural speaking cadence of the participants.
