I've run it on two different WiFi connections so problem looks to be at your end.

Maybe, we shall have to see if other posters have difficulties too.

Are we really expected to put aside 50 minutes in order to discuss this subject? Could you not provide a summary of its content?

In addition it keeps breaking up for me, too. So I would probably have to spend an hour watching it.

You don't have to listen to it all straight off but can jump to points of most interest.  Or not bother at all!  it isn't compulsory.

Not expected at all, if you want to listen to it fine, if not fine. Further it's not about needing a discussion of the contents, just for interest and if anyone wanted to pick out any point that would be fine.
