Not as good as the originals

A creative audio for the price and I highly recommend it. I've listened 3 times and will likely listen a few more times. I especially enjoyed the stories with the breakdown of all the words used in the story. Other than that it is a long way short of the original Verbal Advantage series I have on cassette. Charles made every word seam like it was the best piece of trivia I ever learned and I wanted to tell everyone about it. He would also relate every word to all the synonyms and antonyms elsewhere in the series. This series does some of that but mostly blows through all the words without much of the extra effort that I'm used to from CHE. He would always complete the analysis of a word so that I felt like an expert on that word. In this series, I often find myself searching through the content to find the other words that relate. CHE did that for me and it was much more entertaining.
