I so enjoy hearing you read. A marathon section (thank you for doing it), but a pleasure to listen to nonetheless. That said, I do have to ask that you make the following revisions so that I can PLOK this section:

(0:00) There is about 1.25 seconds of silence at start of intro; please reduce that to about 0.75 seconds of silence.

(6:54 to 6:59) I believe you took two shots at pronouncing "Cysticercus" in "Cysticercus cellulosus" before settling on a third; there should only be one "Cysticercus" (whichever you prefer is fine by me).

(7:39) The clause "the gastric juice of the stomach dissolves the membranous sac" is said twice; it should only be said once.

(53:44 to 54:01) The clause "when his sportive companions hop in turn over his expectant head." is said three times, but should only be said once. Actually the second occurrence is partial, omitting 'in turn over his expectant head'.

(54:14 to 54:20) The fragment "they preserve through their gambols" is said twice; I think the first one should be deleted as the second is the one that has the complete clause.

Also, here some optional changes that you might make, if you so wish

(2:00) I hear "transformation of his hog shop" should be "transformation of his hogship".

(4:14) I hear "two trillion, forty-four million, nine hundred seventy-five thousand, nine hundred sixteen pounds". I think it should be "two billion, forty-four million, nine hundred seventy-five thousand, nine hundred sixteen pounds"

(41:48) I hear, "General" for expansion of the abbreviation "Gen." but I do believe the citation is intended to be for "Genesis".

Finally, you uploaded the file with name 'fourmonthsinasneakbox-05_bishop_128kb'; it should be 'fourmonthsinasneakbox_05_bishop_128kb'. (underscore rather than hyphen)

So very, very close. There is still one repeated clause ...

(7:23 to 7:31) The clause "the gastric juice of the stomach dissolves the membranous sac" is said twice; it should only be said once.

I wish I could PLOK "as is" but I don't think I'm allowed to OK with repeated text. Sorry about that!
