Tales from Both Sides of the Brain: A Life in Neuroscience

I don't recall listening to this. However I did make this comment near the beginning:

The pacing is like a familiar story told among a group who know all know it and the reader is an outsider. I can follow it, but I feel a little behind; the references feel tangential or random, like comparing someone to Tom Hanks, talk of onion sandwiches—and I'm distracted from the ‘real' story
I assume it's the speed the narrator is reading, but if it were in print I'd also be annoyed. I do love the ‘real' content.
