It's just previews of what the host will be talking about and then you are told to go to Patreon. Not sure why these are even posted on a podcast streaming platform (I also checked Spotify, and it's the exact same thing) as this is unhelpful. Definitely turned me away from becoming a subscriber in any capacity, paid or free. I'm sure they are good lessons, but I wasted my time trying to figure out why I was only getting 60 second clips and not the full episodes. Audible (and Spotify) need to do a better job of signaling these are to be paid for.

Meg speaks slow enough that I, as a beginner, can distinguish each word for listening comprehension.
