YES, two recordings over lap at the 8 minute mark.
I find the issue starts at about 6m 21s into the podcast, where a second recording starts to overlap. Hoping for a corrected version. I’ll read the text.
Here for all the readers who are asking for it is the link to Ms. Richardson's (ungarbled) text: https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/april-12-2025?publication_id=20533&post_id=161217918&isFreemail=false&r=cb67r&triedRedirect=true
In which context here's a slightly revised version of my earlier comment: As others note, the broadcast is hopelessly garbled from the eight-minute mark onward. The transcript included with the broadcast is equally garbled. No doubt this is malicious interference by the MAGAstapo. (Has Ms. Richardson's staff been infiltrated? Let us never forget Lev Bronstein's axiom: "In any gathering of three revolutionaries, there is at least one agent of the Okhrana.") That said, I fear Ms. Richardson remains far too much a believer in irrepressible human decency to recognize the true infinity of the Evil by which we are assailed.
Perhaps they're using 'the weave'.
hahahaha.
Fortunately, I read the letter yesterday. I recommend reading it first.
Yup
Has anyone figured out what happened with the recording?
The sound bubbled half way through. I’m guessing that’s a maga deed.
I thought I’d accidentally hit 2 substacks to play at same time. Disappointing. She’ll probably fix i.
Same here. I kept trying to see what I had done wrong.
I hope so.
It’s one voice again with 2 1/2 min. left.
All his fault🤡🎃
Maybe a flux, maybe maga
What happened?
Double bubble half way through. Can this be re-recorded?
Merging of 2 episodes. I hope it will be fixed. Listening at 9:30 pm PST - first about tariffs & then simultaneously another episode. 🤷🏻♀️
Same… double speak…
Its 12:39 pm Pacific time and the other voice overlapping HCR’s started about a minute ago with the counter reading 00.08.00 - I guess 8 minutes left
Well that makes sense, but something ? Mucked it up
Same
So I read the daily delivery--devastating! How can this administration and everyone supporting it get away with stock manipulation, lies, terrifying movements???
Yes, I’m having the same issue with 2 overlapping recordings. Is this a cause for paranoia or simply a one time tech glitch?
Yep, expectin a correction later today. Sorry that happened Heather. You're my Shero.
Bummer! Jamming you. We will not turn it off….
2 recording’s did overlap.
My guess would be sabotage
Overlapping audio , confusing . DOGE??
The problem with anyone saying that the votes were accurate or not, is that without hand, marked paper ballots that are properly audited, any machine that is put into the process between the hand and the actual vote count, is vulnerable.
Election security is improving but there is still more to do.
oops....
There's an issue where two recordinds are playing at the same time a lttle after the 8 min mark. Please fix.
Why can't I just read it on my laptop without "getting the app"?
You can. Subscribe to the daily email. You do not need the app
Voice over 1/2 way thru
Don’t they realize this just unites us tighter?
Yes two recordings.
Unable to hear! 2 recordings are on at the same time 🤦♀️.
So, i went to the written version and realuzed the double recording starts right before the insider trading part of her piece. 🤔
yes while there was interference, most was clear. I do read first and then listen. I find that a better experience to really digest all HCR offers in her outstanding summations not always noted by others.
Now if only we could find a fix for all of this nonsense and fascist overtaking of our government. We THe People are still more than them and that counts for the non bending of the knee. He/they cannot dissappear all of us. Keep supporting Bernie and AOC on their oligarchy tour. That does manage to cross over into MSM as well and they do not hold back. We must stay strong as they are and show our support.
Wonderful to see that even in Dr. heather's processes, mistakes and glitches can happen! Never seen a mishap such as this, and it reminds me of how enormously important Dr. Cox-Richardson's work is to me!!
Please resend clean copy. This is corrupted. Thank you!

I was able to read in my paid subscription to “Letters from an American”
Many thanks for sharing.
Now I can’t ever find how to read in APP. I left FB months ago but still have Instagram with messenger.
Indeed, I can’t listen to the whole thing. Please fix and repost!
Please fix the recording!!
Too crazy...see you next week...Thanks for being diligent Heather !!
The overlap essentially ruins the message. Can you resend without the overlap
About mid-way, another recording was layered in. Did not here the rest
Definitely Russians
There is interference in the recording and I can not listen past 6.15min. The recording starts playing another taped program regarding Roosevelt. Scary!
Just catching up. The recording of this 4/12 letter on HCR’s Apple Podcasts is still overlapping with another letter. But the recording on Substack is now mostly clean (there is a short redo of one sentence that didn’t get edited.) Minor stuff. It’s kind of amazing that she has time to write and record these every day and still do all the interviews and panels. SuperHeather.
This segment contains important contain. Can it be cleaned up?
Yikes - 2 recordings!
The audio version has 2 different tracks talking at the same Tom. I could not continue listening
Do you know this episode has been “corrupted” ? Or is it only me?
As other people have said, there are two recordings at once. Hopefully you can fix this and resend it? Thank you!
Impossible to listen to. HCR talking and half way through listening to her talk half way through her voice in talking over what she was talking about it was too difficult to understand what she was saying. Sadly, it was extremely difficult to get through any of what she was saying? Hopefully, this doesn’t happen and
especially for a paid subscription. Just an FYI !
There are two episodes playing at once. Starting at about 7 minutes in.
Problem with recording. Hopefully it can be fixed. I need my daily fix of HCR. I wouldn’t able to survive without you. Thanks for all you do!
Yes, overlap recording about a third of the way through. However, since we all went to school before this administration tried to destroy education, we can read it for ourselves!!
6.30 into your presentation for April 12 there is a problem
There are overlapping programs with you talking on 2 different topics at same time
Impossible for me to follow
This audio midway through has two readings going on at once!
When I subscribed I was expecting more than a recanting of the news events of the last week. You rarely, if ever, cover anything I haven't already read about. It's disappointing.
Two episodes played over each other.
Please re-release this corrected. Thanks.
THANK YOU.. bit of a glitch. WE MUST ALL RESIST THIS corruption.
Me too.. bummed waiting at the airport hoping to listen.
Please repost the audio version
I will go back and listen to the AI reading and hopefully get Heather’s perfect reading tomorrow !
There’s a problem with the revirding and the transcript. A second recording starts at 61/2 minutes in and voices over the original recording. The transcript also reflects this with confusing sentences.
Oh no. Two recordings over lapping. We can’t understand.
Good to see I’m not only one suddenly hearing two recordings at one time. Phew. I figured for sure I did something to cause this.
Oh dear! What happened!
Please re-submit your April 12 audio transcript without the inadvertent overlay of another audio program. I know you are getting electronically assaulted. I am sorry for that. If it was your oversight, then I certainly do not care. If it is a continued attack on you then I feel personally assaulted. God will get these detractors.
As others note, a hopelessly garbled transmission from the eight-minute mark onward. Transcript equally garbled. No doubt malicious interference by the MAGAstapo. (Has Ms. Richardson's staff been infiltrated? Let us never forget Lev Bronstein's axiom: "In any gathering of three revolutionaries, there is at least one agent of the Okhrana.") That said, I fear Ms. Richardson remains far too much a believer in irrepressible human decency to recognize the true infinity of the Evil by which we are assailed.
Overlap was tough on the rest of the recording. Had to stop
Do any of you get the written form? That's what I read this morning.
How do I read the letter?
Click on the left arrow on the upper left of this comment section to return to the main page of this audio post. Then click on the three dots at the upper right, and select view publication. Then you will see a list of all the podcasts, paired with their text versions. Click on the text version, where you see the words written out, and then you can read the whole thing. If you click on the black triangle pointer at the top, you can also hear it read out to you by a mechanical voice, which does a pretty good job although it's really not as good as Heather herself! Hope this helps. David
Thanks, David Silverman, but I couldn't make that work. There's no left arrow at the upper left of the comment section on my computer. The main page of the audio post, for me, is just above the comments. Fortunately, Constance Whitfield's gracious share did work.
Same here. Hope we get it fixed.
Oh no, everything seems to be broken!
Would be great if you titled the podcasts! Thanks for all.
Same issue here.
Yep...an overlapping of two recordings.
Being a musician and a helper in medical research for decades now. The thought of not having Heparin for Americans in need for the OR makes me gasp at the ramifications these incompetent, clueless and sycophantic lunatics following a madman are causing. Yes, people will die, either in hospitals or from mental exhaustion. It's just what they want. They want us all to go away, but we won't, we will contiinue to fight in any small or large way we can. Thank you for all you continue to teach us, Heather. I don't know what I would do without your calm voice and pen.
why can't I find any details for the April 19 protest rally in Indianapolis and across the nation... where to meet and what time
Listening at 11:48 Monday April 14, the recordings over lap.

Mine was 6:30 minutes in, that 2 recordings were playing.
There is an over lap in recording on April 12th recording
Recordings are over lap
