Good reading Alexa! I have just two comments of items that change the meaning in the text:
At 2:43
Written “excerpts”
Spoken “experts”
At 5:05
Written: “swam off to the Bolivar”
Spoken: “swam off the Bolivard”
Also, you left 8 seconds of silence at end. Better having too many then too few, but LV parameters request just 5 seconds.

Good fixes, Alexa. Just one new item needed. When fixing the one at 5:05, you ended up with a repeat of the words: "Byron could not face this scene." Just a simple delete needed. No re-recording.

Written “gigantic policeman”
Spoken “giant policeman”
Normally I don't point out words swaps that are this close, as the basic intent of the text is not bothered. But this time I think it matters a bit because of the following comment regarding size: “We thought he was an L pillar.” So "gigantic" seems to fill that need more.

I have corrected Section 37 (which was truncated at the front). I hope this is OK —
