I had a hard time watching him talk because the over dubbed audio is completely out of sync. It's really bad right around the 1 minute mark. I ended up minimizing the window and just listening.

I honestly don't care for this audio, it's crystal clear and perfect for a podcast but the video is of him sitting in front of a window with a dog and the absence of any environmental noise is odd.

"Yeah, sorry about the audio sync. I was fighting it for the entire edit, and ran out of time to really nail it.

Next time, I’ll pipe the audio directly into the camera instead of relying on manual syncing during post, which had tons of drift."

Thank you for confirming that I'm not insane. :)

Agreed. It's drifting around and rarely in sync.

Watching on iOS I had no sync problems. Maybe it’s a transcoding problem caused by YouTube? At 1:25 you can clearly hear how when he turns away from the camera the audio changes as well. I’d say the audio is recorded live, not dubbed.

I don't think it's dubbed. Just out of sync.
