Comb filtering (https://youtu.be/Amj4UevyRfU?si=5pwjHKwAw6bdmG2x) plays a role in this.

I was listening to a podcast and realized I could hear the speaker turning pages under the microphone by the way it affected their voice in the microphone rather than the rustle of the page. It was pretty wild. I could ‘see’ it before i recognized what was going on.

Thanks for the video, I wouldn’t have guessed it shows well on a video.

Kinda off topic but I’m on a brand new phone (not logged in and no history) and the next video suggested by YouTube is a French fascist promoting (actual) nazis policies. Why would YouTube do that?! It has absolutely zero connection with audio topics. I just have my OS language set to French. That’s so worrying for the youth with being exposed to pure hate for no reason.

Because it makes Google money.

At a guess, it attracts two audiences - people interested in the content, and people aghast at the content. Twice the pulling power?
